🌟 On 17 Dec I’ll be releasing your year of becoming: a 2026 energy map for creative empaths & anyone going through a season of change. Find out more here.

these readings are timeless. Trust what resonates and allow yourself to let go of what doesn’t.

The energy this week is sharp and sure of itself. Even as uncertainly swirls around you, you’re getting really specific and clear about what you will - and won’t - accept moving forward.

clarity from chaos

Last week the energy was excited and overflowing, it may have felt chaotic at points, even though it was a pleasant experience. But this week is a mature, levelled out, deepening of that energy. It’s like you ‘f***ed around and found out’ and now, you’re using the information or wisdom that you uncovered to be more precise and confident in how you carry yourself from now on.

Others may see this as harsh ruthlessness, but you’re quite certain in yourself now, so don’t let that distract you from the goals you’ve set.

You’ll be turning down invitations without explanation, reinforcing your ‘no’ when others try to talk you into changing your mind, and all this will finally start to feel right. Because you’ve spent too long living exhausted in order to keep other people on your side.

Now, you’re 100% on your own side — so you need that external validation less.

witness the loss

And this might feel like a strange headspace to be at the moment. Because physically you’re still recovering from a lifetime of people-pleasing. You may have found empowerment in the present, but it takes time and practice to release the pressure from people and relationships that have enforced your need to comply.

Enjoy the present fruits of your labour, the thrill of choosing yourself today when in the past you weren’t able. But don’t forget to grieve for the you who had to stay small. When you witness that feeling of loss, you set it free and create space in your body to hold a frequency that is even more you.

it’s not out of character

The challenge this week is about bridging these two worlds — the past where you compromised your peace to soothe those around you, and the present where you are confidently stepping into self-empowerment.

Others will tell you that you are acting ‘out of character’ when you stand up for yourself, when you truly don’t want to go ahead with the path others associate with you, but know that when you succeed, those same people will say they stood on the sidelines and watched you take a leap, watched your character take its true form.

They will wish they’d joined you sooner.

So be your own best friend this week, but more than kind words and compassion, really commit to being your best protector. Fight fiercely for what you deserve and get ready to clearly communicate your needs. This isn’t a time for surviving on breadcrumbs, because when you do that, you set a precedent that informs your future manifestations.

This is a time to vehemently demand your worth, with calmness, integrity, and an inner knowing that your energy is valuable.

On 17 December, I’ll share my 2026 energy map to guide you through three key themes of the year.

Love you,

Fiona
