Oct 09, 2025

Here’s what you’ll find in today’s mix of magic + musings:⚡️ Energetic Color of the Day Chart, 🌕 Week of Oct 13th Energy Update, 💁‍♀️ a Peek inside Christina’s World, & 💕What I’m loving right now

⚡️ Energetic Color of the Day:

Each day carries its own frequency and colors act like amplifiers for that energy. Wearing, carrying, or surrounding yourself with the day’s color helps you align more fully with its vibe. Think of it as dressing in sync with the universe!

Week of Oct 13th Energy Update:

✨ The overall energy shifts toward deep integration and calm, offering an anchor after recent emotional intensity. The work now is less about pushing forward and more about allowing clarity to settle in.

♋ The Moon moves through its home sign of Cancer early in the week, which is all about is all about emotional security, nesting, nurturing, and self-care. It’s a time of emotional release and letting go of what’s no longer supportive to create space for the future.

Stop trying to be “fixed” or productive. Prioritize deep rest, nourishing routines, and the simple comfort of your own space.

💫 Venus moves into its ruling sign of Libra, bringing your focus to relationships, fairness, and harmony. The emphasis is on balanced, reciprocal connection.

Relationships are inviting you to recalibrate. If a connection feels heavy or one-sided, trust your desire for fairness and speak your truth with diplomatic grace.

🌍 Pluto, the planet of deep transformation, stations direct on the 13th, signaling a quiet, yet profound, inner turning point. The resistance or fear you’ve felt regarding powerful systemic change or your place within the collective starts to lift.

Reclaim your personal authority. You are now ready to take the deep, private internal work you’ve done and begin acting on those profound insights in the outer world.

💫 This week’s energy is slow, deep, and stabilizing. It is an opportunity to move from a place of grounded confidence rather than external pressure. Trust the quiet power of simply being centered.

🔮 Need help? Try an “Anchor Drop” Grounding Meditation

The Anchor Drop is a simple visualization that uses the Earth’s steady, non-judgmental energy to clear out restlessness, tension, and the need to constantly do or fix.

This one is best done outside, while making direct contact with the Earth. Find a comfortable seat or better yet, sit directly on the ground.

Take a deep breath and imagine a heavy, solid anchor dropping from your tailbone. Visualize it cutting through the ground and sinking deep into the dense, steady core of the Earth. Feel the Earth instantly catch and hold your anchor. It does not move. It is totally secure.

On the inhale, feel the Earth’s stability and calm travel up the chain of your anchor, into your legs, and filling your belly. On the exhale, actively release any tension, worry, or fear down your spine, letting it drain down the anchor and into the Earth to be absorbed and neutralized.

Hold the image of the steady anchor. This represents your unshakable core power! Then repeat this mantra a few times to lock in the energy: I am safe. I am grounded. I have my own authority.

🧘‍♀️ Practice anytime you feel overwhelmed, unsettled, or pulled away from your own center this week.

💁‍♀️ Personal Update:

Today I was in a mood. I have no idea where it came from, why it’s here, and why it won’t go away. I am naturally a very happy person. It’s typically easy for me to obtain and stay in a high vibration, which is why I think people are so attracted to me.

I’m always tickled when strangers offer kind unexpected compliments like, “Has anyone ever told you, you have the most beautiful eyes?” or “captivating personality?”. My favorite compliment is usually give to me by a grumpy person though, “Are you always this happy?”. As I reply with a bubbly, “Yes!”. Followed by an expected 😾.

Okay, but what is it about grumpy people? Just to be clear, we’re talking grumpy, not angry. Because lowkey, I love a surly person. Especially the curmudgeonly old ones. I find it hilarious for someone to be so crabby. Even the definition makes me giggle: bad tempered and irritable. It’s totally them.

grump·y | /ˈɡrəmpē/ | adjective
bad-tempered and irritable.

On Fridays I used to go to the hospital for chemo and I would always get stuck with this old lady Evelyn. She had to have been 100 years old and every week we had to watch her soap opera. Don’t quote me on this, but I want to say it was at 11:30 AM, The Young and Restless or maybe it was Days of Our Lives. Regardless, we watched it. You’d think I’d remember because it was all Evelyn could talk about from the moment she walked in. Then once the nurses put it on, she would yell at anyone who’d talk, ya know, because her “GD show was on”.

As you’d expect, chemo is not fun. It’s not a spa day. You’re hooked up to this bag (sometimes 2) and if you need to move anywhere, you’ve got to wheel the damn bag with you everywhere you go. It’s especially fun because you have to avoid tangling the tubes while being wrapped up in a blanket of exhaustion and nausea. And the medicine, tastes like toxic chemicals. As it’s entering your bloodstream you can actually taste it (as I’m recounting this, I can still taste it). Plus you’re in a big bright room with a bunch of old sick people, feeling like shit, which makes it extra torturous.

But thank God for Evelyn! She was one cranky old broad, constantly barking at anyone, but mostly the nurses for “using old needles!”. “I really think you guys need to invest in new needles!” or “These needles hurt!”. Um, yeah girl, that’s why they’re needles. She was in a constant state of irritation and it sent me reeling.

What else is a bored, sick 21-year-old to do in such a situation? I had two choice. I could be like Evelyn, knitting hats and yelling at sweet, Earth-angel nurses about soap operas and dirty needles, or I could find the fun and humor in my least favorite day. As a natural optimist, I’m sure you know what I did. I joined in. “Yeah, you need to stop using all these old needles. I demand a brand new one!”

op·ti·mist | /ˈäptəməst/ | noun
a person who tends to be hopeful and confident about the future or the success of something.

Maybe I like grumpy people so much because my dad was short-tempered. I’ve definitely had a few grumpy boyfriends, which tracks with the theory that we end up dating our parents. I always found a bit of charm in these men, because I had the ability to soften them. This made our alone time together intimate and special; I was able to experience a side of them no one had.

Their grumpy demeanor was hilarious to me until it wasn’t. Grumpy, while funny in small doses, gets exhausting really quickly. Especially when it’s over the dumbest things. Have you ever told a moody man to relax? I wouldn’t recommend. That is unless you want to push them over the edge. Then go nuts and don’t forget to report back.

I personally feel incredibly lucky to have the gift of being able to bounce back from frustration or anger quickly. I can be mad one minute and completely forgive the next. Love and forgiveness are two of my personal core values, and I believe we could heal the world if we all operated from this place.

As a child, it’s crazy to witness your parent get super frustrated or freak out over the simplest things. Especially if it was a normal occurance like something breaking, struggling to fix something, or my absolute favorite: a loss by a Chicago sports team (we are a Sox family, don’t get it twisted).

But boyfriends on the other hand, that’s different. These men still get snappy over the same things and it’s still funny, but this time you’re not looking at them from the lens of, this is my parent. You’re looking at them from the lens of, this is my partner. And the thought of having a long-term relationship with a grumpy person makes me want to pluck my own eyeballs out.

Grumpy is so funny to me because it’s so opposite to my personality. I probably fall into the sourpuss trap 5-7 times a year, which is why I like to warn people when it’s happening. This helps them avoid asking a bunch of questions about my grumpiness, which would inevitably make me more irritable. But sometimes (and I’m sure you can relate to this) it feels so good to be grouchy. In those moments, I don’t want to get pulled out of it. Which is exactly why I could never date someone who’s grumpy again, because I swear they want to stay in it.

I’m at a point in my life where I only want to be in romantic relationships with men who lift me up and make life better in every way possible. It feels freeing to love yourself and your life so much. It’s my hope that everyone can and will experience this. It’s the best, and YOU deserve it!

And now for our message of the week:

Starseed Oracle – Card #1. Soul whisperer: What your soul wants you to know. Card #2. Grounded Action: The Action your soul is guiding you to take.

What your soul wants you to know: You’re more protected than you realize. It’s safe to open the back of your heart and receive new levels of support—from the people in your life and from the benevolent beings walking with you. Even if the past taught you to go it alone or to guard yourself, resist the urge to harden. Instead, open to the loyal protectors and helpers around you—and let your heart learn how safe it is to stay open.

The action you’re being guided to take: Even the deepest souls need connection. It’s easy to retreat into your own world—especially when solitude feels like safety and reflection comes naturally. But we’re not meant to walk this path alone. Humans are pack animals; we thrive through love, touch, and shared presence. In a world that’s hyper-connected yet often isolating, this card is a reminder to step out of your cave and reach toward the people who ground you. Text a friend. Go for a walk together. Let yourself be held in real connection again.
