BONUS! The Turning Point Spread: A Litha Collective Reading

The Turning Point Spread: A Litha Collective Reading

Happy Litha and Happy Summer Solstice!

This special bonus episode is a collective oracle reading inspired by the energy of Litha—the longest day of the year and the sacred turning point between the reign of the Oak King and the Holly King.

Using the Seasons of the Witch: Litha Oracle deck by Lorraine Anderson and Juliet Diaz, with artwork by Tiana Lukovic, I walk through a five-card spread I created called The Turning Point Spread. Together, we explore the themes of abundance, intuition, shadow work, authenticity, and the inner wisdom that emerges when we stop seeking validation outside ourselves.

As I moved through this reading, one message appeared again and again:

The power was never outside of you.

Whether you're standing at a crossroads, dreaming about what's next, or feeling called toward a deeper version of yourself, this reading offers reflections and questions to carry with you into the darker half of the year.

In this episode:

✨ Where you are standing in your power right now

✨ Why abundance and wholeness are not the same thing

✨ Expanding your vision beyond inherited limitations

✨ What you're being asked to release into the fire this Litha

✨ Letting go of spiritual performance and embracing shadow work

✨ The importance of your unique voice, gifts, and perspective

✨ What wants to be born during the descent into the darker half of the year

✨ The deeper lesson woven through every card in this reading
