popping into your inbox for the last time about Constellation Clarity!
if you've been thinking about joining, it's time to make your final decision.
i'll likely offer this class again in future but i prefer not to plan my work months in advance so i don't have specific dates to give you.
you know what's best for you and if this is the right time to jump into something like this, so trust your gut (and your calendar, and your bank account).
| 💫 get your clarity |
(if you've already signed up - welcome! i can't wait to see you in class. remember to gather your supplies and join us in the Discord.)

⏀ how to dye your hair at home like a pro |hairdresser tips and recommendations (14min)
i dyed my own hair for over a decade and still learned a shit-tonne from this video. also... foreshadowing 🤫
Crafting an Amethyst D20, then scratching all the edges! (9min)
a deeply satisfying and beautiful craft video - i had no idea that was how stones and gems are cut. one of those creative videos that inspires you to make stuff even though the medium is a million miles away from what you make.

take care,

mon 6 nov okay so i had to skip my usual newsletter last week - but i’m happy to say i’ve taken the burnout break i needed and have spent the past few weeks untangling my work plan and easing back into things. i wasn’t expecting to end up relying on decks and divination so much to help me sort out the next phase of my work, to be honest, but that’s what i’ve done. it’s been incredibly helpful. as you might know, i’m more of a Lenormand girl when it comes to card divination, but recently i’ve...
sat 7 oct happy october 🎃 🍁 ☕️ ⚰️ i’ve been in hermit-mode for a little while, but today i want to let you know what’s been going on. aaaaalright, let’s do this one last time. in the latter half of September, i was having a kinda rough time. not only was i having the worst physical anxiety symptoms i’d had in years, but i also started to notice anhedonia (feeling numb and unable to take pleasure in things) rearing its head. eventually all this escalated into a flare up of full-on depression....
