Group Session for....

We live inside a personal holographic—an ever-shifting field of meaning, memory, and possibility. When we set a clear life-vision intention, the field starts to organize. Seemingly unrelated moments reveal themselves as stepping stones. Doors appear. Patterns surface. And when we learn to read those patterns, we can repattern our lives.

Core Elements is the next session in our series, an invitation to explore your inner landscape with curiosity and courage. Think of it as a navigator’s kit for your holographic universe—practical, self-guided, and designed to help you keep aligning with your vision between sessions.

What we’ll explore together:

• Unmet life needs. Loosely inspired by the hierarchy of human needs, we’ll notice where old, unmet needs still tug at the present—and learn to meet them now, as adults, with compassion and agency.

• Brainwave and brain-function patterns. With neuroplasticity on our side, we can attune our focus, regulate our state, and support the neural pathways that serve our goals.

• Vertebral associations. A spine for your intention—using body-based patterning as a checklist for alignment and support.

• Family and community beliefs. The silent downloads we inherit from our families and cultures can keep us safe—or keep us small. We’ll identify what to honor, what to release, and what to rewrite.

• Planetary frequencies. As above, so within. We’ll explore resonances drawn from traditional associations to notice how larger cycles might be mirroring our own.

• Levels of conscious awareness. As our awareness widens, our options multiply. We’ll map where we’re processing from now—and what becomes possible as we shift.

Do‑it‑yourself support is central to this work. You’ll leave with patterns to contemplate and simple journaling questions, you can use anytime—at a point of choice, when refreshing your life‑vision, or when a familiar snag returns. This repatterning helps surface hidden dynamics that aren’t solely of your own making; you’ll learn to recognize how “downloads” from family, ancestors, community, and culture can shape your responses. And you’ll have integration options—practices to anchor new, positive patterns so the shift continues after the session.

If you’re ready to explore your holographic universe with steadier hands and brighter eyes, join me on May 29. Register today, bring your questions, and let’s see what opens when your intention meets a clearer signal.

Astrologer Julie Simmons writes about THIS Mercury Retrograde...

Mercury Retrograde in Cancer: How We Feel is Who We Are

Drowning, as we are, in a sea of too much information and not enough wisdom, we look for something to hold on to. Time to reach for our feelings, our empathy, the ability of all humans to mirror each other, to know how it feels to be someone in a different skin, and to recognize our kinship with all that lives.

Mercury is always about the mind, that untrustworthy trickster who makes us think that there really is a pot of gold. But the Trickster has bigger fish to fry when it’s retrograde. Turned inward, toward the soul, Mercury opens us to the possibility that this inner landscape is real. Not just real but that it belongs only to me. Here is my felt sense, the great big sea of imagination giving rise to my best ideas. And so it has always been.

How can we know our subconscious thoughts? Through dreams and synchronicities, reactions in the gut, and instinctive reflexes. Despite this we have become a species that likes to categorize and pathologize our behaviours. Mercury retrograde in Cancer reminds us that the way we inhabit our inner being and the expression that comes from that makes sense in our understanding of who we really are.

Want to know your subconscious thoughts? They are written in your body, in your weaknesses as well as your strengths. Plain as day, or the nose on your face. What if you didn’t judge them as flaws but understood them as messages from within?

What if you imagine, while Mercury is retrograde, how it was for your grandparents and their grandparents? If you con-sider (with stars) that your mother was once an infant at the mercy of her parents, or your father was a toddler reaching for his future? Cancer takes us back—not always to the good old days. Looking back can tell a story of difficulty or wounding, mistreatment and neglect. But always there was something that nourished your soul, your cells. What was it?

This isn’t for extraction to make you better or to make you great. It likely won’t get you likes. It’s a quality to be received with the awareness that you wouldn’t be here, reading this, looking for sea glass amongst the stones, if there hadn’t been some kind of connection.

Jupiter has been in Cancer since the summer of 2025 and will move away on June 30th. If Mercury retrograde recapitulates this journey, it ask us to consider the needs of all living beings in a world that appears to be in self-destruct mode. How do you hold this? What have you learned about the interconnectedness of all that lives?

Wars create horrifying deprivation, which goes against the grain of all that Cancer and Jupiter are meant to bring. Mercury asks us to hold that awareness without blame (although that’s challenging), without fear for our own security (also challenging). Where does the inclination for self-destruction come from? How do we lose connection with the goodness of Life Itself?

The essence of any Mercury retrograde is felt most strongly when it conjuncts the Sun (July 12). That is when the winged messenger, Mercury, offers messages for us to use or ponder as we turn to the second half of the retrograde journey. What form of meditation will you use to still yourself and listen for such a message?

Warmly
Julie Simmons

Mercury Retrograde, made easier

Starting June 29, Mercury appears to move backward—often bringing mix‑ups with messages, schedules, and agreements. If you write, broadcast, build for the web, publish, or practice law, you may feel it more. It’s not a curse; it’s a cue to slow down, clarify, and realign.

What tends to happen
During retrograde, details get slippery. We mishear, misread, and miss appointments. That’s why people advise waiting on big commitments. But life doesn’t pause—contracts still get signed, homes bought, celebrations planned. The invitation is to work with this energy so you move through it with more ease, insight, and even humor.

How this group session helps
Astrologer Julie Simmons and Life Repatterning coach Carolyn Winter combine clear astrological timing with practical energy work. Julie frames what this specific retrograde is asking of us—where to be careful, and where to lean in. Carolyn leads a live group Life Repatterning to shift patterns of frustration and miscommunication into clarity, calm, and better outcomes.

You’ll leave with:
• a grounded understanding of the retrograde themes at play
• a reset in your personal “signal” so conversations, decisions, and details land cleanly
• simple practices to navigate contracts, launches, and life logistics without drama

About the method
Life Repatterning works well at a distance and in groups. We identify the energetic patterns that keep you stuck, then flip them so you resonate with what you want—clear communication, timely decisions, and a steadier pace. In a group field, change is amplified; you benefit personally while contributing to a collective shift.
