This is a found poem from an article in an old gardening magazine (c.1993) I had at home.
When we are present and observe nature all around us, we can find everyday magic #everydaymagic #natureheals
Sweet-smelling swathes
of bronze to the east
Delicious young yews
cluster grey stone walls
Butterflies just grew
taking off in every direction
like Angelica
Sometimes
golden berries
seized upon
sparkle
their essence

Welcome to this month’s oracle reading. The card that came through is Angel of Soul Love — a powerful invitation into self-love, compassion, and stillness.
This month’s card invites us to soften, surrender, and remember our own childlike innocence — that part of us that simply is, without needing to figure it all out.
