🌿🍂 The Idaho Ogham: From Wild Apple to Aspen September 27 – October 24 Spirit Messages • Flow • Letting Go The Grove of the Ponderosa Beloved, Our Idaho Ogham has quietly turned another page. And although I’m a little late announcing our arrival, perhaps that is rather appropriate for the medicine of Aspen. After all, not every transition announces itself with a trumpet. Sometimes, it arrives as a whisper through the leaves. Here in Idaho, the landscape is changing. The mornings are crisp, the sunlight has taken on that beautiful golden autumn glow, and the trees are beginning their magnificent surrender. The aspens, especially, have a way of capturing our attention. Their leaves shimmer and dance in even the gentlest breeze, as though the trees are carrying on a conversation with something we cannot quite see. And perhaps, symbolically speaking, they are. Welcome to the season of Aspen. 🍂 THE TRANSITION: FROM WILD APPLE TO ASPEN During our passage through Wild Apple, we explored wisdom, nourishment, and choice. We examined the harvest of our lives and asked ourselves what was worth gathering, preserving, and carrying forward. Wild Apple taught us to choose what nourishes us. But Aspen asks something different. Now that you have chosen what matters, what are you willing to release? Because gathering the harvest is only part of autumn’s work. We must also make room for what comes next. And this is where Aspen becomes such a beautiful teacher. 🌿 SPIRIT MESSAGES — The Language of the Unseen Have you ever stood beneath an aspen and listened? There is something extraordinary about the sound of its leaves. Unlike the heavy rustling of many other trees, aspen leaves seem to tremble, flutter, and whisper. Their flattened leaf stalks allow them to move with the slightest breeze. It is almost as though they are listening. Within our Idaho Ogham, Aspen invites us to become listeners, too. Not necessarily for voices from beyond, but for the subtle messages we sometimes overlook.

We welcome this new moon on this beautiful portal day!! This is your reminder to write letters to the universe! With the Libra energy today, look again to balance. What can you allow to rest? What can you do more of that helps you emotionally find balance in your life?

A triple new beginning. A remarkable new moon in Libra. A portal to all you desire, if you choose to walk through it. The new moon is always a sort of new beginning. The moon disappears for a day only to be born again, to grow to being big and bright, full of promise, until it wanes into disappearance once again. I’ve learned that cycle this year. I have learned it VERY well. It’s definitely not always comfortable, but I can tell you it’s worth it. Add the 10/10/10 portal to the mix and it gets even better. 10 for October, 10 for the day, and 2+0+2+6=10. All reduce to 1, the number of new beginnings. A triple new beginning. What are you calling in? How do you want to feel? What baggage can you leave behind? What do you really believe about all of those things? How can you change what you believe to come into alignment? Here’s a sweet prayer for you today: I remember the girl who longed for freedom. I honor the woman who learned to choose it. I release the expectations that were never mine to carry. I reclaim the words that once confined me. I remember what is true. I allow what is becoming. And I give myself permission to be fully, wonderfully me. My portal morning has been incredible and I chose these golden trees in the backyard to use today because as I was burning herbs and expressing gratitude, the sun broke over the rooftops and illuminated the trees. It felt like a doorway. A moment that took my breath away. A breeze came up and I smiled as leaves began to fall like rain. A poem came to me and I opened my notepad on my phone and wrote it down as it floated through me. The leaves of autumn fall Like golden rain. The spirits of Air Flirt and play, Bearing all upon its fingertips, Teasing dreams into the day. I wrap myself in its glamour, My Soul is swept away, My crown grows light upon my head The prayer on my lips fades. My heart swells in love and peace And I find meaning in The Way. ~ Daisy Jane 10/10/2026 Even more lovely, my kin came to witness my beautiful moment. Squirrel in the trees at my back. Woodpecker circled my sacred space and rested in a tree in front of me. Crow punctuated the morning air with his resounding “caw”, as if adding his seal of approval.

This. This right here is the birth of my entire life’s work into this world. It is an invitation to come along and see what there is to be seen about who you incarnated to be. I am one that immerses myself in my practice and it’s changed my life so much, I tried to share my practice with everyone and it didn’t resonate. What I’ve come to realize is, we all have a blooming practice within that maybe we have not been aware of. I wasn’t aware, not for years. I knew my horoscope. I knew my talents. I knew my moon sign and my rising sign. But it was one morning as I was waking up from sleep that I was shown something incredible in my mind. Isis showed me The Tree of Life. She said to overlay my astrology onto it, using the elements to show balance and tendencies. So I set to work mapping out all the intricacies of a powerful system to begin to truly know who you came here to be instead of continuing to be who the world has shaped us to be. In Ayurveda, an ancient healing modality, they speak of Prakruti and Vikruti. Prakruti is the constitution you were born with and Vikruti is the constitution you have now. What this tells us is how close or how far we have come to our authenticity. While modern Ayurveda focuses a lot on body type, I’ve always felt it was important to focus on the whole. In The Soul Code, we walk through what the cosmos said about us the moment we were born. But in order to see how close to that or how far from that we are right now. I’ve never met someone today that is truly living their Soul Code because the world has made us into different people. Awareness of who we are can influence who we were created to be. For example. I was created to be a teacher but I’ve lived my life terrified to speak. My life has always felt “off” because I never lived as myself. Horoscopes are only a very small bit of the picture. We wander around with an identity around our sun sign while that itself is a sort of mask we wear. It’s not the whole picture and I can’t wait to show you the difference!

Here is your reminder to write and burn for September! What can you let go of that is holding you back?? What can you release to gain more balance? What needs to be set down to prepare you for the decent?
