Letting in the Light

A Sacred Egg Reading for Creating a Life
This morning I got out my Sacred Rebels deck by Alana Fairchild for an egg reading. My friend Amy mentioned to me that she just did this and of course that piqued my interest. I have been feeling an internal rumble like something is brewing but it is still covered in mist.
So I did what I do when my own words haven’t come but the knowing is coming: I sat down, spread the cards, and listened.
The cards that came through were of course - just right for me. When I read them, I felt seen, held, and guided. They carried themes of release, trust, possibility, and renewal. And they felt so alive, so woven into this particular moment of becoming, that I wanted to share them with you here.
The first card was Release the Dark Wound, Let Love Live
It felt like an immediate call to set something down. Not necessarily because it was “bad” but because I’ve been carrying it long enough. These old hurts, these stories that once helped keep me going, they’ve done their work. This card was an invitation to stop identifying with the “shoulds” and instead, let love move back into the places that have been held tight for too long.

Next came Inner Trust …
A message I have been receiving one way or another for a while now. It speaks to the part of me that has learned so well to gather evidence or approval. It reminds me that my instincts are good and it is time for me to listen to myself. Even when the path is unfamiliar, it is time for me to trust the wisdom that lives inside of me. Especially now, when things feel tender, in-between, or hard to define.
Then came Pandora’s Gift
A surprising and welcome friend. This card reminds me that even in disruption, there’s hidden treasure. Sometimes the unraveling is exactly what makes the space for beauty to re-enter. I’ve opened so many things that felt messy at first (not going into that today) only to discover that what came pouring out was deeply necessary. Another word I love for this is collateral beauty. Bring it on.
Collaborative Dreaming followed…
and brought softness to my heart. A reminder that this next cycle is not a solo mission. That there is something magical that happens when we let others witness and co-create with us. I’ve always felt the pull toward shared vision, lifting eachother up, and circles where dreaming is a collective act. Bring it!
I love my friends; they have my back and I have theirs.

The fifth card was Free from Judgment, Free to Love
This one speaks to saying bye bye to the harsh inner lens that says everything needs to be measured, polished, or justified. Comparison has always been a hurdle for me and this was a reminder to let it go. Love, real love, doesn’t live inside judgment. This card reminds me to return to me. To let myself be seen in the process, not just the outcome.
And finally, The Perfection of Your Life
What a way to close the reading. Wowza. This isn’t perfection in the curated, idealized sense but the kind of perfection that honors taking the scenic route. Understanding that every twist, delay, detour, is a part of the magic. This card felt like a reminder that there’s nothing I need to fix before I can begin again. Life, as it is right now, is ready to hold what’s next.
Ready to Rock! Thanks Fiona Rose Photography!
If You Are in the In Between…
This reading left me feeling clear-eyed and inspired enough to share it here. I know that something essential has already begun.
If you’re reading this and you’re in your own threshold moment, where the old ways no longer hold and the new shape hasn’t quite formed, maybe this message is for you, too. The egg has cracked. Light is getting in. And something real is ready to be born.
I’d love to hear what’s moving in you.
What are you dreaming?
What are you letting go?
These are the conversations that keep me connected, curious, and awake.
