Rune of the Day: Gebo
Gebo is the sacred dance of giving and receiving — the flow of energy between the self and the world, between Spirit and soul. It reminds us that true transformation doesn’t happen in isolation. To truly become, we must open. Give love. Receive support. Offer truth. Accept grace. Gebo reminds us that allowing ourselves to be held, witnessed, and nourished is not weakness — it’s part of the magic.

Medicine Working with Us Today: Butterfly
Butterfly arrives to remind us that transformation is a sacred process — not a leap, but a sequence. From the seed of change to the stillness of the cocoon to the unfolding of wings, each part matters. There’s no skipping ahead. Today, Butterfly medicine invites us to honor the space we’re in — even if it’s messy, even if it’s still hidden beneath the surface.

Butterfly and Gebo, together, weave a message of becoming through connection. Transformation isn’t something you do alone in the dark and emerge from untouched. It’s relational. It’s vulnerable. The cocoon isn’t just a personal sanctuary — it’s a sacred exchange. Butterfly shows you that change is alive within you. Gebo says: don’t hold it all in. Let yourself be supported through it. Let your transformation be witnessed, mirrored, and honored.

The collective energy today reminds us: you can’t fully bloom if you’re still clenching your petals closed out of fear of being seen. And you don’t have to earn your right to receive love just because you’re still in process.

This season asks you to let your becoming be shared. To offer your truth as medicine. And to let the world — Spirit, community, loved ones — pour something back into you.

Let This Be a Gentle Space to Reflect:
Am I holding my transformation too tightly, trying to go it alone?

Where am I being asked to open to support, softness, or guidance?

How can I honor the sacred exchange of my growth — by giving, receiving, or both?

My Personal Reflection:
I’ve been realizing lately how much I try to carry alone — not because I want to, but because I’ve allowed myself to be taught to. Today’s message cracked something in me. Butterfly reminds me that I don’t have to have it all figured out to be beautiful. Gebo reminds me that letting someone hold space for me is just as important as the space I hold for others. That reciprocity is healing, not weakness.

Your becoming is sacred. Let yourself be held inside it. Give where it flows, receive where it matters. Transformation doesn’t make you worthy — you already are.

Rune of the Day: Tiwaz – The Warrior’s Path
Tiwaz speaks of discipline, honor, and forward motion—but not through force. This rune brings a call to act with integrity and choose what’s right over what’s easy. It’s the energy of sacred warriorship—cutting through illusion, standing tall in truth, and committing to a higher path.

Spirit Animal Working with Us Today: Horse – Freedom
Horse rides in with wild heart energy. It calls us to release what cages our spirit—old stories, stagnant roles, or external control. But this freedom isn’t chaotic—it’s chosen. The Horse teaches us that freedom is not the absence of structure, but the presence of self-direction.

Collectively, we’re being asked to examine where we’ve handed away our power—through fear, through habit, or through trying to keep the peace. Tiwaz calls us to move forward with honesty and clarity. Horse reminds us that freedom comes when we move in alignment with our soul’s truth, not when we run from discomfort.

Let your “yes” be a full-bodied yes. Let your “no” be rooted in knowing. Choose yourself—and then move forward like the Horse does: with power, grace, and trust in the path ahead.

Let this be a gentle space to reflect:
Where do you feel most free right now?

What truth is asking to move through you?

What would it feel like to walk forward without second-guessing yourself?

My Personal Reflection:
Where do I feel most free?
In movement—when I’m creating, when I’m guided by spirit, when I’m not trying to be smaller than I am.

What truth is asking to move through me?
That I’m ready. Ready to show up fully, to let my gifts be seen, to walk with trust in who I am becoming. I don’t need to rush or force it— I just need to honor that the time is now. I’m ready to live what I’ve been preparing for.

What would it feel like to walk forward without second-guessing? Like a deep exhale. Like trust. Like arriving, even as I move.

Wherever you go today, walk with trust in your own rhythm. You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to prove. Let your truth speak through your presence, your choices, and your energy. The path ahead doesn’t require perfection—only alignment. You are supported. You are guided. You are free to move forward in your own sacred way.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Let’s funk it up and garden it down.
Move with truth. Be wild with purpose. You’ve got this.

There is a fire inside of you older than your name—born not of this world, but anchored in it. Today calls you not to blaze, but to remember that flame. Not to conquer, but to honor what it needs to keep burning. The ember is alive, even in silence.

Rune of the Day: Nauthiz – Rune of Sacred Necessity
A rune of holy friction. Nauthiz speaks to soul-hunger, inner tension, and the quiet fire that calls for truth. Not punishment—but purification. It reveals where something vital is missing, asking us to pause, tend, and realign. This is the whisper that says: You’re being called back to what truly matters.

Spirit Animal Walking With Us Today: Tiger – Keeper of the Flame (Fire Element)
The Fire Tiger arrives as the guardian of your sacred will. She does not burn wildly—she burns wisely. With primal knowing and measured grace, she teaches: Your flame is not to be given away freely. Protect your energy. Reclaim your roar. Trust your instincts. She shows us how to move with both strength and stillness, and how to walk forward without abandoning ourselves.

There is a sacred fire inside of you—and today, Spirit asks you to sit beside it, not race past it. This is the flame of your truth, of unmet needs rising like smoke, asking not to be smothered but witnessed. Nauthiz shows you the spaces where your soul is calling out, not in lack, but in longing for alignment. The Tiger says: respond not with force, but with presence.

The block is not a wall—it is a signal. The tension is not wrong—it is holy. Your job is not to push through, but to tend, to listen, and to stoke the fire within.

Let This Be a Gentle Place to Reflect:
Where am I feeling tension or resistance—and what truth might live beneath it?

What is my inner flame asking for right now? Rest? Expression? Boundaries? Connection?

What would it feel like to tend to my needs as sacred—not selfish?

My Personal Reflection:
Today, I feel my inner flame not as a demand—but as a presence. It doesn’t need to roar to be powerful. It’s asking me to slow down and feel what’s real beneath the surface. I realize now that this tension I’ve carried isn’t here to break me—it’s here to bring me home. I am learning to trust the spaces where I feel need, not fear them. I can tend to myself the way Spirit tends to me—lovingly, patiently, fiercely. My flame is sacred. And today, I choose to listen.

May your fire rise in sacred rhythm. May you honor your needs as offerings. May your truth feel like home, not a burden. May the Tiger walk beside you, silent but strong, As you move through this day with rooted joy and fearless warmth.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Let’s funk it up and garden it down, baby.
Even in the dirt—we rise, we root, we burn bright.

Rune of the Day: Ehwaz (ᛖ)
Movement, trust, harmony, partnership, and progress. Like horse and rider, this rune speaks of divine cooperation—an inner and outer journey forward, even if the path feels unclear.

Oracle: The Mist
You may not see the whole path right now, but your soul does. Let the mist be a guide, not a block.

You’re not lost—you’re being softened. This mist is not confusion, but a veil of transformation. Ehwaz rides beside you, reminding you that movement doesn’t always look loud or fast—it can be internal, sacred, and deeply aligned. Spirit is partnering with you. Trust your shifts. Allow the not-knowing to be a form of knowing. Let the unfolding be slow, intentional, and guided by the beat of your inner drum.

Let this be a gentle place to reflect:
What does my soul whisper when I stop trying to “figure it all out”?

Where do I feel subtle movement or shifts, even if the destination isn’t clear?

My Personal Reflection:
Today I’m wrestling with needing clarity while craving stillness. My visions feel like scattered seeds—and I’m trying to stay focused while I sort them. Ehwaz reminds me that I am moving forward, even if I can’t map it all yet. The Mist tells me to soften into the fog and let my soul do the leading. Maybe this phase isn’t about doing more, but listening deeper. I am choosing to trust the garden I’m growing—even if today, it’s still under the soil.

May this day meet you where you are—with softness in the struggle, grace in the growing, and joy in the little movements forward. You are held. You are healing. You are harmonizing.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Let’s funk it up and garden it down, my soul-grown family—your roots are rising.

In the quiet corners of the day, wisdom tiptoes in — not loud, but bright. There’s a playful intelligence in the air and an invitation to feel good while moving smart. We are planting seeds with our thoughts, words, and instincts — so let’s garden with joy.

Rune of the Day: Wunjo
Wunjo sings the soul-song of harmony, bliss, and alignment. It appears when we are asked to return to what truly feels good — not in fleeting pleasure, but in deep, steady satisfaction. It is the rune of chosen family, laughter, gratitude, and being in flow with your truth. When Wunjo shows up, it says: Joy is your birthright. Claim it.

Oracle of the Day: Fox – Clever
The fox brings sleek magic — it reminds you that you can move through your day with agility, wit, and grace. You don’t need to bulldoze your way forward — your sharpness lies in intuition, timing, and trusting your senses.

The universe is whispering: Be light on your feet but rooted in joy. Today is a dance of cleverness and contentment — a sweet blend of being resourceful and being receptive. Your instincts are on fire. Your spirit knows what’s right. Follow the paths that feel like relief. Let your words carry beauty. Let your laughter heal old weight. Romance — whether with a person, a passion, or your own peace — is possible right now. Stay open.

Let this be a gentle place to reflect:
What feels truly good in my body and spirit today?

Where am I overthinking something simple?

Can I let my joy be part of the solution, not separate from it?

My personal reflection:
Today feels like a reminder to lean into what comes naturally to me — my gift of reading energy, seeing signs, and finding joy in the little things. I feel the fox in my walk and Wunjo in my breath. Even in the chaos, there is a pulse of peace. I want to share that rhythm with my soul family — to plant joy, water instinct, and laugh with the wild wind. This life is sacred. And today, it’s also sweet.

May this day bring you unexpected clarity, unshakable ease, and a sprinkle of soul-deep joy. Let your cleverness lead you toward what blooms, not just what survives. You are loved, guided, and glowing.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Let’s funk it up and garden it down, my soul-grown family.

We rise not to leave the Earth, but to love it more deeply.

Rune of the Day: Jera – Cycles, Harvest, Divine Timing

Oracle: Eagle – See from a Higher Perspective

We are being called to rise—not to escape, but to remember. To shift our gaze from what’s immediately in front of us to what’s eternally within us. The Eagle reminds us that vision is sacred. Not all seeing is with the eyes— but with the soul.

The arrows do not point down in defeat; they anchor us. Each one is a message from Spirit— a reminder that wisdom flows down, not from above us, but through us. We are the bridge between realms. To root ourselves deeply is not to be stuck—it is to be embodied. To carry that higher sight into every step we take.

The eye is the gateway. It asks us to trust the invisible, to remember that the magic we seek outside is born within. We are protected. Guided. Interwoven with all things. The six petal rosette behind the eagle—the Flower of Life—reminds us that our journey is not random. Each choice, thought, and breath adds to the pattern. We are not separate from the sacred web—we are threads in its living tapestry.

And Jera appears now to affirm: This is the season of remembering. What we sow with awareness, we will harvest with grace. No need to rush—Jera teaches us the beauty of divine unfolding. What is meant for you is ripening in perfect time.

Let this be a gentle space to reflect:

Where am I being asked to see beyond the surface today?

What signs or “arrows” have been appearing in my life lately?

How can I root into myself more deeply while staying open to divine guidance?

My Personal Reflection:

Where am I being asked to see beyond the surface today?
Today, I’m being asked to see beyond the ache—to feel the loneliness that sometimes surfaces without brushing it aside or spiritualizing it away. I’ve lost friendships and connections that once felt central. Some drifted. Some broke. And some just no longer resonate with the version of me that is here now—growing, expanding, healing.

There’s a grief in that. A missing.
And today, I’m being asked to see that grief not as a setback, but as a sign of how deeply I care, how much I’ve grown, and how ready I am for soul-deep alignment.

What signs or “arrows” have been appearing in my life lately?
The arrows have been pointing me back to self. To simplicity. To the love that still surrounds me, even if it looks different now. The signs come through the soft reminders: the messages from soul family across the miles, the quiet moments of clarity, the visions I hold for the life I’m creating with my daughter.

They remind me that while some connections have fallen away, they created space for the truer ones to arrive—and many already have, just in new forms.

How can I root into myself more deeply while staying open to divine guidance?
I root by letting myself feel all of it: the loss, the loneliness, the hope, and the joy. I give myself permission to mourn what’s gone while trusting what’s coming. I listen for Spirit in the silence. I connect with those who do see me, even if it’s through a screen or a shared energy from afar.

I stay open by remembering that the garden I’m growing includes not just joy—but truth, depth, and devotion. I trust that the circle I long for is also longing for me. And as I show up, day by day, the path becomes more aligned, more alive, and more me.

So, my fellow wildflowers,
if today feels quiet, tender, or in-between — know that you are not behind.
You are not alone. You are in a sacred season of becoming.
Keep growing. Keep grounding. Keep allowing beauty to take root in your own way. in your own time.

The garden is listening. And Spirit is walking every seep with you.

With ALL the LOVE,
Ciearra Johnson
Lets funk it up and garden it down,
My Soul-Grown Family.

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!
