Rune of the Day: Sowilo

Sowilo is the sun’s radiant force—the energy of triumph, truth, and clear vision. It burns through illusion, warms your path, and reminds you that your light is not only meant to be seen—it is meant to guide. Today, you are invited to stand fully in your power, trusting that success flows when you act from your highest clarity.

Spirit Animal Working with Us Today: Personal Choice

Rather than being assigned, your guide today comes through conscious connection. Close your eyes and ask—What animal walks with me now? Its presence is no accident. Its traits are tools for your own growth. This is a sacred collaboration between your inner world and the wisdom of nature.

The sun rises within you. Sowilo brings light to the areas of your life that are asking for bold honesty and hopeful direction. This is not a day for shrinking—it’s a day to step into alignment with what matters most. The spirit animal you receive is a guidepost, not a destination. Whether it brings sharp sight, fierce protection, or soft resilience, it reflects what you’re ready to activate. You get to choose what energy leads you forward.

Let this be a gentle space to reflect:

What is your animal guide today? What qualities do they carry?

What are they asking you to pay attention to?

Where can you bring more clarity and intention to your next choice?

My Personal Reflection:

Today, the hawk appeared to me—a messenger of spirit and sharp vision. It reminds me to rise above the noise, to stay centered, and to trust the signs that flutter just beyond the surface. With Sowilo lighting the way, I know my path is being cleared with each aligned choice I make.

Let this be a day where you trust the warmth of your own light. May you move like sunshine through your world—curious, kind, and awake to the beauty that surrounds you. Listen for the whispers of your guides, honor your choices, and remember: your presence is a seed. Wherever you go today, may you plant something gentle, something true

With ALL the LOVE ,

Now go water your joy, pull the weeds of doubt.
Let’s funk it up and garden it down, baby!

Rune of the Day: Hagalaz

The Rune of Disruption & Cleansing

Spirit Animal Working With Us Today: Bison

Guardian of Endurance, Grounding, and Sacred Provision

Today invites us into the eye of transformation. Hagalaz brings the energy of sudden change, much like a spiritual hailstorm, breaking down illusions and clearing what no longer serves. But we are not left unanchored — Bison steps in as our guide, reminding us to move slowly, with purpose, and to trust the Earth beneath us.

Disruption may feel harsh, but it’s also sacred — a gateway to deeper alignment. The Bison teaches us to endure with grace, to weather the storm with rooted strength, and to remember that abundance follows surrender.

Let this be a gentle space to reflect:

What storm is stirring within or around you today?

Are you feeling the urge to break free from something — a thought, a pattern, a structure — that no longer fits your spirit?

What is the sacred lesson within your current storm?

Leave a whisper in the comments — your insight may be the light someone else needs today.

My Personal Reflection:

This morning, I felt a quiet rumbling in my chest — like a knowing that something unseen is shifting. As I sat with Bison’s presence, I remembered that survival isn’t just about bracing the storm, but about walking through it with heart and faith.

I offer this reminder to all who read today’s grove:
You are strong enough.
The storm is not the end — it is the sacred turning.

Walk slowly. Breathe deeply. Trust the clearing.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Lets funk it up and garden it down – one rooted step at a time.

Close your eyes for a moment. Feel the earth rise to meet you. Feel the old songs humming in your bones. The ancestors stand at your back. The light between the trees touches your spirit. Here, in the Grove, you are never alone. Breathe. Open. Remember who you are.

Rune of the Day: Berkana

Today, Berkana comes not simply as a sign of quiet healing, but as a call to sacred tending. Reminding us: better days do not just happen — they are nurtured into being. You are the hands that plant the seeds. You are the breath that calls them into bloom.

Spirit Animal Working With Us Today: Orca Whale — Adventure

Today, Orca Whale swims alongside us, keeper of deep songs and bold journeys. Orca teaches us that true healing is not only soft — it is fierce, loyal, and brave. It takes courage to keep singing after storms. It takes heart to leap into the unknown waters of our own becoming. Orca invites us today:

Sing your wild song. Trust your strength. The tides are already shifting in your favor.

Better days are not a reward waiting at the end of hardship. They are something we build — piece by piece, breath by breath, choice by choice. Better days are stitched from the moments we choose to keep loving, even when our hearts are heavy. They are born in the moments we trust the unseen magic we are planting,even when our hands are tired. They are not a destination. They are the sacred harvest of every seed of faith we dare to sow.

Channeled Message:

You are not waiting for better days to find you. You are already calling them into being with your breath, your bravery, your becoming. Every time you choose to hope, a new root takes hold beneath your feet. Every time you sing your truth, the winds shift in your favor. The garden of your spirit is waking. Trust the miracle that is already unfolding.

Reflection / Words to Carry:

Today, honor not just the bright days, but the sacred labor of the heavy ones. Honor the hands that kept sowing when the soil was dry. Honor the heart that kept hoping when the nights were long. Your better days are not ahead of you — they are rising within you.

My Personal Reflection:

As I sat with my ancestors, guides, and loved ones today, I felt them gather around not with promises of ease, but with a quiet, steady faith in our becoming. They see the beauty in the days we think are small. They see the strength in the moments we think are lost. Today, I honor every heavy step that carried me here, and every unseen bloom already rising in your spirit too. We are building better days together, even when we can’t yet see the full garden. I hold you in light and love today.

With every breath, with every tender step, you are already becoming. Until tomorrow, soul family.

Rune of the Day: Thurisaz

Thurisaz speaks of gateways, thresholds, and protective forces. It is the rune of conscious choice, discernment, and awakening power. Thurisaz is often associated with the thorn — sharp, protective, able to wound but also able to shield. Spiritually, it represents the moments where we are asked to pause before we act, to recognize the strength of stillness, and to understand that true power is not reckless force, but conscious intention.

Thurisaz reminds us that within every breath is a doorway: a moment to choose how we move forward, how we defend our energy, how we honor our path. It is the sacred pause before action — the power of awareness crystallized.

Today invites you to recognize the divine alchemy that occurs when you choose to truly be here, not drifting into yesterday or leaning into tomorrow, but rooted soul-deep in the miracle of now. In this presence, the portals of transformation open.

Channeled Message:

Will you walk through this day asleep, or will you cross the threshold into sacred presence?

The power you seek is not hidden in future outcomes. It is not buried in your past lessons. It is right here — shimmering in this moment, inviting you to lean fully into it. Thurisaz brings the reminder that even in the seemingly mundane moments — making tea, smiling at a stranger, breathing in the morning air — your consciousness is forging your path. Every act done with awareness becomes a prayer. Every breath taken with gratitude becomes a blessing.

When you meet the moment with your whole heart, you activate the truest magic there is: the power of presence that transforms everything it touches.

Reflection Invitation:

Today, I invite you to reflect:

• Where do I tend to leave the present moment most often — the past, the future, distraction?

• How can I choose, lovingly and powerfully, to return to this moment today?

Hold this close in your heart, or journal your insights if you feel called. Notice when you slip, and meet yourself with compassion.

My Personal Reflection:

Today, I feel this energy most in the quiet spaces between. The pause before I reach for my phone. The breath before I answer a question. The sensation of the ground beneath my feet when I would otherwise be lost in thought. I am learning that power is not something I will find outside of myself — it is something I step into each time I fully arrive in my life.

Closing Blessing:

May you walk through this day with eyes wide open and heart tender and fierce.

May you trust that the moment you choose to be here, you are enough, you are powerful, and you are walking your soul’s highest path.

You are so deeply loved, seen, and supported — both by the unseen world and by your own courageous spirit.

Carry this knowing with you, and let it turn every ordinary moment into something magical!

Rune of the Day: Jera
The Rune of Harvest, Cycles, and Divine Timing.

Jera speaks of the quiet unfolding of life’s seasons — the slow, certain ripening that cannot be rushed.
It reminds us that true growth moves in rhythms older than memory, woven deep into the fabric of our being.
What you have planted is becoming, even if you cannot yet see it. Trust the cycles. Trust your becoming.

Channeled Message:
Waiting is not empty. It is not wasted. It is not a pause between ‘real’ life. Waiting is the sacred act of weaving yourself whole.
Every unseen moment, every quiet breath, every tender hope — they are the soil and the sun of your becoming. You are not just preparing for a future harvest. You are the harvest already growing inside you.

Reflection Invitation:
What parts of yourself are ripening quietly, asking for patience instead of pressure?
Can you allow yourself to become whole within the waiting — without needing proof, without rushing the bloom?

Today, witness your own sacred unfolding.
You are not behind. You are right on time.

If you feel called you are welcome to share your reflections in the comments below.

Personal Reflection:
Jera reminds me that no true growth happens outside of natural rhythm. Today, I choose to trust that every part of me — even the parts I can’t yet see — are coming into fullness at exactly the right time. The waiting is not punishment. The waiting is part of my wholeness.

With so much LOVE I hope every single one of you have the most MAGICAL day! LIVING IS DOING ENOUGH!!!

I see you all. I love you all. You are enough. You are not too late to your healing.

Rune of the Day: ISA
Isa is the rune of stillness, patience, inner alignment.
It is the frozen lake in winter — beautiful, silent, and strong beneath the surface.
Isa teaches us that not every moment is for outward movement.
Some moments are for rooting deeper, holding center, preparing for true transformation.

---

Beginings are often painted as bursts of action — excitement, fast change, big leaps.
But real beginnings — soul beginnings —
often ask for something harder:
Stillness.
Patience.
Listening.
The willingness to stay with yourself before rushing ahead.

Not ever beginning is meant to explode into motion.
Some are slow awakenings.
Some are silent prayers sent into the soul.
Some require brave stillness — the kind of bravery that waits, breathes, and trusts.

Reflection Invitation for You

Today, I invite you to reflect:

Where in your life are you being asked to be brave enough to pause?

Can you honor a beginning that doesn’t look busy or loud — but is still deeply alive within you?

You’re welcome to share your reflection in the comments, or simply hold it close in your heart.
This is a space for witnessing, not rushing.

My Reflection

Today, I am feeling the invitation deep in my bones.
There are beginnings stirring in my life that don’t feel ready to move yet — ideas, healings, new paths still forming under the surface.
And part of me wants to push, to force the unfolding.
But Isa reminds me: There is a sacred bravery in standing still.
In trusting the silence.
In letting the seed stay hidden underground until it’s truly ready to break open.
Today I am learning that the bravery of beginnings sometimes looks like holding space, not forcing growth.
