Altar Notes
A place that feels like sitting near a window with a notebook open, light shifting as you think.
Sometimes there’s a video here, sometimes just words — reflections shaped by seasons, questions that linger, and perspectives formed through lived experience.
These notes are captured when something feels clear enough to name.
They hold observations and moments of recognition.

Make Space — November 1–7
What can I set down to make room to hear myself? Seven of Wands + Change It’s easy to lose track of your own voice when everything around you is moving. A change at work. Another request. Plans shifting just when you thought you had the week figured out. These cards brought me back to discernment. Where am I choosing to put my energy, and where am I getting swept along? The Seven of Wands feels protective. Change reminds us that the wheel keeps turning. Together, they invite

A Quiet Knowing: Your November Reading
Here in the Northern Hemisphere, the days are getting shorter and the season is inviting us inward. Meanwhile, our calendars seem to be doing the exact opposite 😂. Work is asking us to finish the year strong and figure out what next year looks like. The holidays are bringing plans, expectations, and all the little things someone has to remember. And somewhere in there, we’re trying to stay connected to ourselves. That’s the space I wanted to explore in this month’s reading.

Weekly Card Pull: Oct 25-31
This week's reading brings together the Lovers, Tales in all Time-Spaces from the Sisterhood of the Seers Oracle by Athena Laz, illustrated by Ana Santos, and Prayer from The Moon Deck by Aarona Lea, illustrated by Andrea Keh. These cards are so perfect for this space of many retrogrades, when old stories resurface and we're invited to reconsider whether we want to keep living by them. 🌙 The Energy: Tales in all Time-Spaces + Prayer Tales in all Time-Spaces + I surrender to

Making Room for the Messy Middle
We've started treating the way we choose to do things as the only right way to do them. And I've been seeing a lot of this in spiritual spaces lately. Spaces where lightworkers, tarot readers, corporate witches talk about growing their businesses AND where women are gathering to learn how to tap into their witchy, wild woman, natural, self-led sides. Take AI, for example. There are people who believe that if you use AI in your spiritual business or really anywhere, you're som

Weekly Card Pull: Oct 18-24
This week's reading brings together the Six of Pentacles, This Is an Initiation from the Sisterhood of the Seers Oracle by Athena Laz, illustrated by Anna Santos, and Intuition from The Moon Deck by Aarona Lea, illustrated by Andrea Keh. Even before I pulled these cards today, I was having some feelings of grief. Thinking about my dad I lost nearly a year ago, revisiting memories, and honestly, feeling a little angry about him not being in this physical space to see how our l

Giving Yourself Permission to Be Still
Let's talk about stillness, and specifically, different ways we can give ourselves permission to be still. Sometimes when we hear the word meditation, we have this idea of what it's supposed to look like. You know, sitting cross-legged on the floor, eyes closed, trying not to think about anything. And that's certainly one way to do it. But there are actually a lot of different ways to practice stillness, and I wanted to share a few that have worked for me. Because really, the

Your Weekly Card Pull: Oct.11-17
Each week, I pull two cards for the collective: this month, I'm pulling one from the Moon Oracle (written by Aarona Lea and illustrated by Andrea Keh) to look at the energy surrounding us, and one from the tarot to explore how we might work with that energy in our actual lives. As always, take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. 🌙 The Energy: Meditate I am at home in my body and at peace in my spirit The Meditate card from the Moon Deck, reminds us that mediation is a pra

Weekly Card Pull: Oct. 4-10
Some weeks invite us inward. Others ask us to say the thing, draw the line, make the change, or finally acknowledge what we already know. This week feels like a little bit of both. For this week’s collective reading, I pulled Cycles from The Moon Deck by Aarona Lea, illustrated by Andrea Keh, alongside the Five of Wands from the tarot. Together, they feel like an invitation to pay attention to what friction is revealing. 🌙 The Energy: Cycles My emotions move through cycles a

The Thing Beneath the Thing
October brings us into the darker half of the year. The days get shorter. The world begins pulling inward. And traditionally, this part of the seasonal cycle has invited us to do the same... to look beneath what is immediately visible and spend some time with the things we don't always notice when life is moving quickly. Pay attention to reactions that feel bigger than the moment: the short fuse, the comment that makes you disproportionately angry, the interaction you replay

Something new is taking shape at Wild Sovereign ✨
Many roads lead here. I've been known through many lenses: Soapy Swagger, Spirit Swagger, Ava Lowaun Intuitive, a seller at a market or event, doing tarot, energy work, or coaching. But as I’ve been building this next chapter, I’ve realized that the heart of my work has stayed surprisingly consistent: Helping women choose themselves. To listen to what they know. Trust what feels true. And give themselves permission to create a life that actually feels like theirs. Tha
