Tarot & Astrology Reading for Your Writing Week Ahead: 6-12 February 2023

WritingWriting & ThrivingWriting PracticeWriting the Wheel of the Year
Written By Sally-Shakti Willow

We're fully in the energy of Imbolc and the Leo Full Moon this week - giving us forward momentum and motivation like we may not have felt since before the Winter Solstice! 🌟

Mercury passes out of its shadow on Tuesday, really supporting us to move our writing projects forward.

With the Moon moving through Virgo and Libra, we'll really have a clear focus for editing and discernment - but take care not to let that tip over into self-doubt, self-criticism and self-judgement...

Two of Pentacles reversed invites us to look for ways of creating greater work-life balance with our writing projects and finding ways to honour both our need and desire to write *and* our need to rest and restore.

I recommend (always!) having a personal journal by your side for giving awareness and attention to the emotions that may be arising as you write.

All this and more in today's video.

Message me if you'd like to arrange a personal reading for you and your writing project!

Writing my PhD in Utopian Poetics showed me what it means to be a writer. I wrote four books of poetry and a 50,000 word thesis, and I started journaling as a way to ground and heal myself.

While I was studying, I also wrote and maintained the Contemporary Small Press website, writing regular reviews of new fiction and poetry published by small presses. I was on the judging panel for the 2018 Republic of Consciousness Prize for literary fiction from the small presses. So I was reading a lot of great writing too. And I co-developed and taught a series of workshops called WELLBEING WHILE WRITING for doctoral researchers at the University of Westminster.

WELLBEING WHILE WRITING used practical techniques from Creative Writing pedagogy to support PhD students of all disciplines with the work of WRITING their thesis. I also used my knowledge and experience of yoga and meditation to provide MOVING & BREATHING FOR WELLBEING workshops to graduate students at the University.

I’ve been teaching English since 2004 and I’ve been teaching Creative Writing at the University of Westminster since 2017.
