When I tuned in to ask the Divine about September, Spirit showed me the Death card in tarot right in front of me. This card is not negative like the connotation implies— “death” means “out with the old and in with the new ❤️”. So… Straight up, this month is about endings. Some of them we’ve chosen, some of them were chosen for us— inner shifts that had to happen no matter how we felt about it.
As I was writing, I kept hearing the song “September rain,” TBH— not sure who it’s written by but it’s a famous song for sure. It’s just what I heard! Some of you may even feel called to listen and look at the lyrics! If this is you— there may be a message!
Anyways… Spirit showed me that the rain is symbolic. Spirit said “Rain holds both weight and cleansing”. By “weight” the Divine said that rain carries heavy emotions and memories (that are heavy), but it also washes us clean so something new can grow (cleansing). That’s what this month feels like when I tuned in! karmic lessons surfacing, patterns returning, and the heart asking us to rise above the pain instead of being consumed by it. Healing isn’t found by searching outside of yourself. It begins by looking within, facing what hurts, and remembering who you really are.
Spirit showed me a few things about what the collective is moving through. First, a lot of us are ending old ways of showing up. That means people-pleasing, doubting yourself, biting your tongue when you should be speaking truth. That version of you is done— CONGRATS!! BE PROUD OF YOURSELF! Second, some of you are going through literal endings in relationships and friendships. It hurts, but Spirit keeps saying it’s making space for the connections that actually line up with who you are now.
Third, there’s a group of you resisting change you already know needs to happen. That’s why you feel so drained—resistance will wipe you out faster than change ever will!! Spirit is saying if this is you, don’t overthink it. Write it down. Call it out. Ask for help even! The moment you name the thing you’re resisting and ask for help,, you start breaking its hold on you.
Some of you are right on the edge of a breakthrough. You’ve been in the same cycle for years, and Spirit is saying you are about to finally move out of it. These breakthroughs come when you least expect them, and they come with so much clarity that you’ll wonder why you clung so hard to the old.
Also, some of you are feeling REAAAAAALLLLY irritated lately! Spirit showed me that irritation is often rooted in competition or comparison. You’re angry that you’re not coming out on top, or frustrated that your efforts aren’t being recognized the way you think they should. If this is you… pause. Spirit is saying this irritation isn’t here to shame you, it’s here to show you where you’re still measuring yourself against others instead of standing in your own lane. Use it as a mirror. Ask yourself, “Where am I still trying to prove something? Where am I forgetting that Spirit already has a path lined out for me?”
Lastly, some of you feel like you’re waiting in the shadows. You can feel something is shifting, but you don’t know what. It’s not “bad” for this group (albeit it’s never bad for anyone— things ONLY happen to strengthen and stretch us if we ACCEPT). This is for those who felt September has been more relaxed—you’ve been moving through all these intense energies more quietly. Spirit says the stillness is where the Divine is rearranging things behind the scenes. When it’s time to move, you’ll know. Essentially— it’s just the pressure of transformation building.
Whatever category you find yourself in — CONGRATS! Nothing is “bad” — you’re moving through it.
Remember, Neptune is retrograde until early October. That’s stirring up a lot of past-life energy and old stories. Spirit says this is your chance to finally close them out for good if that is what you desire and choose. WE HAVE FREE WILL OKAY SO YOU CAN COLLAPSE YOUR TIMELINE BY CHOOSING DIFFERENT! You’re may be clearing the last layers of lessons or breaking free from beliefs that were never truly yours to carry. And if you’re still holding on to them, it’s because you’ve chosen to. Though some situations are karmic lessons that you need to work through until you decide YOU ARE DONE WITH THEM! How do you know the difference? WELL— if you are reading this and you know exactly what I’m talking about, you can be done with them pretty immediately. If you don’t— it may be karmic. This isn’t BAD OKAY?! Please hear me in that— karmic means lessons we need to move through to evolve our soul. They are things that we eventually work through to bring us wisdom! Some of you might not resonate with either of these statements. If that’s you— keep flowing with the ease September is bringing you!
What You Can Do Right Now (only do what sticks out to you, and only if you feel called):
- Name it. RECOGNIZE the pattern, habit, or belief you’ve tried to change but can’t. Calling it out strips it of its power.
- Shadow work. Write down everything you’re ready to let go of—thoughts, relationships, fears, emotions, x, y, z— anything that comes to mind! Ask yourself: “What part of me is still attached to this?” Spirit says the root is often fear—fear of being unloved, unsafe, or unworthy. Facing that fear is how you loosen its grip. Say: “I call upon the Divine and Arch Angel Saint Michael to cut the karmic and etheric cords of the following list.” Read it out loud— then BURN IT! When you’re finished, thank the Divine for carrying it for you. I personally always give gratitude, because the Divine is constantly guiding me, strengthening me, and orchestrating things I could never align on my own. That’s why every release is also an act of trust and love! 💕 That’s what shows Spirit that you want to let Spirit move YOU! (The path of least resistance in my opinion. Not free of pain— but free of extra anxiety YOU DONT NEED TO CARRY!)
- Walk your integrity. Every day, choose one small way to act in alignment with your truth. That might be speaking honestly, setting a boundary, or even just noticing when you shrink yourself. Spirit says consistency here is how you rebuild trust in yourself.
- Use irritation as fuel. If you’ve been short-tempered or restless, Spirit says that heat is meant to push you forward. Let it motivate change where you see fit.
- Ground into your body. Spirit showed me how important embodiment is right now. Walk outside, breathe deep, place your hand on your heart or your belly and say: “I am safe to release. I am safe to grow.” Let your body feel the truth.
- Stay in gratitude. Gratitude isn’t about pretending everything is perfect, it’s about keeping your heart open while you transform. It’s about allowing the wave to take you. TRUST THE WAVE IS NOT NEGATIVE AND SCARY!!!! If you believe in goodness— you receive goodness even if it is disguised as pain. Pain is a spiritual initiation. Move with it to grow!
That’s actually all I have for September. I know it’s not super long, but honestly there’s a lot of different scenarios and situations playing out for everyone right now. Spirit gave what needed to come through, and that’s what I’m leaving you with!
Overall, September is a month of courage. The courage to admit what is finished. The courage to stop feeding patterns that break you down. The courage to let Spirit carry what you cannot 🥹❤️
Like “September Rain”, the endings may feel heavy, but they are also cleansing. The water softens the ground so something new can root and grow. Spirit is preparing you for what’s next, and it starts with trusting the release. Trust the Divine. What brings me peace in my own unbecoming is knowing that the One guiding my becoming is infinitely more intelligent, more loving, and all-knowing than I could ever be on my own.
This season IS NOT about loss, even if it feels like it 🥺. It’s about REMEMBERING WHO YOU ARE— about finding STRENGTH WITHIN. If you have already found that, and if you feel called, use it to strengthen those around you.
No matter what you’re navigating through right now, just know it’s not weakness. Spirit would never put something in front of you just to break you down for no reason. It’s being presented so that you can discover what already lives within you.What feels heavy is really an invitation to rise— Spirit is clearing space! Every challenge is here to remind you that there is more inside of you than you realize — more courage, more clarity, more love. You’re not being tested to prove your worth!! You’re being guided to remember it!!
You can always book a personal reading with me if you feel called. Sometimes wisdom is knowing when to reach out, and strength is recognizing that Spirit never intended for you to carry it all by yourself— OR NOT! It’s no problem for me either way— just know there is always guidance available if you need ❤️
With Love,
Anika ✨
