A rare New Moon (times two!) ✨


Hi, Reader —

A little reminder that, this week, we meet for the New Moon — and normally, we gather on Wednesdays, as you know...

This time, the schedule needs to shift a little. My boy Liam has a playoff game (he just signed with the CCHL’s Nepean Raiders — so proud!), and I wouldn’t miss it for anything… not even the moon.

So, our Lunar Magic practice will take place Thursday evening, 18 September, instead — always at 19h00. This one is playfully nicknamed “Virgo New Moon Double Trouble Eclipse Season” — because it’s not just any lunation.

Virgo brings us two New Moons in the same sign, with the second arriving as a solar eclipse on September 21, the equinox. The first moon this season gave us space to pause and reflect, but the second transforms that reflection into inspired action. Eclipse energy dissolves the illusion of “not yet,” reminding us that we don’t need to be more polished or more prepared before we begin. We are enough. This is a true turning point, a threshold moment inviting us to step forward exactly as we are — imperfect and whole.

✨ Join me Thursday, September 18 at 19h00 EDT on Zoom for this free Lunar Magic practice.

We’ll meditate, chant, journal, and welcome this powerful eclipse together.

See you Thursday evening,
Sara

PS — There’s still time to hop into The Imprint: Fall Meditations this week. We’re still meeting early in the mornings — and it’s beautiful, because the sun rises with us. 🌅

PPS — Remember: every new moon, the start of the cycle, is a free hour-long gathering of meditation, mantra, journaling and sharing. Every full moon we take time for a longer 90-minute workshop-style practice, with more movement and breathwork, and priced accordingly. It’s one of my favourite rhythms of the month — the gentle seed at new moon, the big crescendo at full. (the next full moon is in roughly two weeks, and take note — that date may need to move as well, as the Wednesday is Yom Kippur! I'll send a date change and reminder, don’t worry)

Hey there, Reader — Endings can be hard. Admittedly, I’m not very good at them! And, I’ve learned that to make room for new growth, we have to let go. It’s a part of life. This seasonal shift – summer into fall – always stirs something deep. Sadness as the play of summer gives way to routine…Nostalgia, perhaps, or longing for your “back-to-” moment. And at the same time, relief at the return of structure, cooler air, and the crisp clarity of something new. We must first honour the endings, to...

Hiiii there, Reader — Perhaps you noticed that The Imprint is back for fall! If it’s been a while, and you’re curious about this upcoming session, I invite you to join me in person (for those of you in Montreal) at Morpho Bleu on Saturday, September 13 at 10:30am. We’ll have a wonderful session together to learn how to start a simple meditation practice. For those of you who can’t make it to that gathering, I know you might still be wondering: → What exactly is The Imprint? → How do I make...

Hi, Reader — First week of September is here – I just got back from vacation, the kids are back in school, and holy heck – this season is already in full swing! 🍎✏️ How has your week kicked off? Wednesday’s Full Moon Eclipse practice was such a gift. Were you there? We explored what it means to become crystal clear – about what we’re ready to release, and about the kind of presence we want to embody. Whether live or on the replay, every time we step into practice we add something positive to...
