Hello and welcome to spiritually speaking. Now it's just me for the intro, but that's because me and Sam had a great catch-up, but then I started channeling a load of things for 2026 with the year ahead energy of the year, one that we're going into in numerology and the firehawks in Chinese astrology. So it's a shorter episode, but I think it's probably going to be more impactful that way. So you're kind of joining it as we're mid-conversation but know that it goes into some deep-channeled messages for you guys for 2026. It's time of you it does bring that though like there's this like urge of like routine and structure and you know and actually kind of aligns nicely with the things we're going to talk about because we are in like capricorn season and capricorn

does bring that like it want it we crave like structure and stability and routine and sort of when once sort of the Christmas period is done it is a bit like okay I need that now you know and it doesn't need to be that you take over the world it's it's not necessarily the case but it is like right you know I'm not going to have chocolate every day and like whatever you know it's that sort of thing like we've been having croissons you know like the ones you put in the oven oh yeah I'm like right we just don't need crosslands every day like yeah lovely like no rules were in that gap now i'm like i think i need a bit more discipline now yeah i'm exactly the same yeah even with like having a drink i was having a drink there was a period of time where i was like i haven't had a day

where i've not had a drink for ages yeah yeah yeah see i haven't drunk too much i literally had a little glass of champagne on christmas eve and that was it um i've gone to cambucha you you would like kombucha it's like the fermented is it like baileys no no no it's it's like a fermented like fruit drink but it sort of has like a little bit of caffeine it's sort of yeah I know it's like not balies um you I don't know I'm sure you're able to get it in supermarket it's like in every supermarket in England now you can get them which I was really surprised about and but it's like a good little sparkling like pick me up no alcohol and so I drank that quite a bit of over Christmas sort of like a couple of glasses um so yeah i'm gonna google it now yeah it's good

cambocha with a k yeah cam yeah cam cam kam b u c h a i think cambucha i had it in thailand at the tantra school because the lady made them herself they were really good but um yeah it's a good sort of replacement oh god we're nice good sorry no no you go should we should we talk talk a bit about the energy of 2026 then yes absolutely we've got a few things going on so what i would say is um keep an eye out on instagram because i am launching the psychic collection app and there's loads of content for the year ahead and there's like zodiac um videos that are like 15 minutes long with like bigger bigger breakdowns that are going to be way more specific to you and so you can join that through the link on my Instagram profile.

But this is going to be a bit more of a summary, which will also be really helpful. But it's just quite an interesting year. There's a few things that you've probably seen on social media. But the Chinese astrology, we're moving from the earth snake. No, the wood snake, sorry, not the earth snake, the wood snake to the fire horse, which is quite an interesting energy. So we'll talk a bit about that.

And we're also moving from a year nine in numerology. to a year one so there's a whole different like cycle appearing for that as well so there's like really good momentum for 2026 it feels quite nice how you feel yeah i'm really excited for it actually i feel like this i mean we've obviously spoken about this a lot more in depth than other episodes but i feel like last year was kind of like my like restful year of you know just kind of taking a bit of the backseat and just enjoying that and then now I feel like ready this year yeah and that's yeah and when I look back on like there's a lot of people that I see either people that I don't even know on social media or some people that I do know when I look at

their year last year I'm like what they did like last year no is in like a lot of breakups oh yeah a lot of like hard things yeah like and there's quite a common theme I keep seeing it with like a lot of people you know where they've broken off or just things like that where I'm like wow that was a hectic year for a lot of that

well it always comes up around this time of year as well you know because I actually thought Instagram was quite I find it really interesting how we respond to it over this time of year because it does become quite performance related doesn't it it's sort of you know what have you achieved And especially when I was single, like, I hated social media.

Like, I used to feel like such a failure because I would have achieved things, but they didn't necessarily feel like worthy of social media because they weren't that societal, you know. And it's sort of like, it's a weird old time. And I think what a lot happens to a lot of people as well is they compare themselves to sort of these couples or, you know, even people that do sort of coaching or spiritual stuff. And you're like, oh, God, they're smashing. or and you're like oh I'm not doing enough it's really weird and we spoke about this two years ago in one of these episodes this time of year but it's a funny old time where you know people really

start to compare and feel like they they haven't done enough or they're they're falling behind and I used to sort of feel relief once it was sort of like new year was done I'd be like right everyone's going to go back to normal now you know yeah I completely agree I think that I think comparison is the phrases isn't it comparison is the thief of joy yeah it is yeah and i can see that i can see why people definitely really struggle with that um i think you just have to remember that not everything is as it seems no it's not and honestly like what i find as well like with many many clients you know um their life is perceived in one way and it's not always the case when they come to me and first of all that used to really shock me so

in Dubai, I used to think, oh my God, is that really the truth? You know, it was sort of a big learning for me. And then it kind of helped me of my perspective on social media, you know. But I think also, like it can cause arguments because you're like, oh, these people have done this. Why don't we do that? They're always on holiday. And it's like, you don't know if they're in debt. Like, you don't know how they're doing this.

Are they even having a good holiday? You know, it's sort of all these things that you just don't know what's going on. I think the truth of it all is just focus on yourself. well that's it because on what you're doing how you feel and what you want to achieve and start trying to look at other people but I so for me I'm quite I have a healthy relationship I'd say with social media other than the fact that I can sometimes be on it too much I would say I have a healthy relationship with it that I don't buy into much yeah you know what to mean like I don't see something and think oh my god they've got such

a perfect life yeah because I just don't necessarily do that but I really get a lot of value from it more in terms of like motivation. I see it more on the side of things. But yeah, I think if you find it an unhealthy place and definitely stay away from it or just be careful on who you follow and what you consume. Yeah, I mute lots of people. But I find it's more my psychic intuition.

It'll be like random strangers and I see it and I'm like, it's just not real or that they're genuine or whatever. Like I will have like those feelings. That's so cool. Yeah, it's always the case. Like I do sort of see through a lot a post and so I find that like if I think about it as a psychic I'm scrolling through social

media and it's like yeah no oh like and I'm like oh there's too much dialogue going on because of the energy because I remember like years ago like when I was in my first relationship like you know I'd post a picture but I know that you know half an hour before that picture you know or after we had a row when we were annoyed with each other or whatever it was because I was you know sort of falling into that trap at that point in my life and, you know, that energy connects to that picture, you know, and I think that's what we forget about when we scroll through social media, what we could be absorbing from people's lives and then how that impacts our lives as well. So, yeah, it's something to be mindful of. I've been sort of trying to be

a bit better with my bedtime routine and like reading again because I feel like I was just scrolling on TikTok. That's my doing sort of scrolling. And I was like, I just feel like I need a better bedtime routine. I'm like looking into mainly funny stuff on TikTok, but like all these people's lives, hundreds and hundreds just before I fall asleep. And I wonder my dreams are going crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, especially for you. Yeah, well, I've been having dreams where I'm on like a planet.

It was so weird. It was like I was on this planet and all the sky, the stars were different. And I was going, oh my God, like these stars aren't our stars. I looked down and I could see Earth and then I saw a football pitch and it had like Texas on it and I could see it from this planet and I was like, why on Earth have I got bloody Texas as something in my head? And I was like I think it was like Texas moms like on TikTok kept coming up, you know, and it's just sort of like and they're all like got eight kids and whatever. Anyway, so that is a bit of a weird funk of this time of year that that sort of comes up and, you know,

you're much better at detaching than I am from it. So I have to just sort of step away. But when we think about the wood snake, okay, so there is a more slower energy. So that makes sense with what you're feeling. But also when you said about relationships breaking down and sort of you sort of see these public breakups and even sort of in the celebrity world or whatever,

the wood snake is shed in the skin, you know? There is a shedding that appears. And it was also this ninth year, okay, in numerology. Now, I'm not an expert in numerology, so I've just taken some notes from what I've found. But, you know, it is about sort of releasing, it's about healing, it's about forgiving,

it's about letting go. And it's sort of, it's quite a heavy energy that we had in 2025. Like, I think we all wanted a bit more momentum than what we got. We were all sort of raring to go and we didn't really get maybe the results that we fully wanted.

I'm not saying that we're ungrateful, but I think we were in our fills way more than our practical mind last year. So that was because there would have been a lot of karma. I'm channeling a bit more now because I'm sort of feeling into the year. I feel like we had loads of soul contracts to deal with last year. Lots of karma, lots of things that our souls were dealing with that have been going on for lifetimes. It wasn't just this time. and that feels really uncomfortable, you know, it feels quite unsettling. But, you know, the change was needed.

Like, this is forcing change. This isn't forcing us to stay still. This is forcing us to change, make a difference. And it's going to feel uncomfortable. And the thing is, with that discomfort, if you sort of try and avoid it, it's going to come back and you kind of wanted to deal with it last year. Now, don't be worried if you didn't. You know, you've got time to deal with it.

because 2026 has got all the energy to move forward and you can't move forward with dead weight, you know. So that's the reason why that year was all about releasing and shedding and letting go and forgiving and all that stuff because if you had all of that attached to you, how could you move forward? And what some of you might have found is you were forced into quite difficult situations.

You know, you probably felt like the spirit world were against you, you know and you're thinking why are you doing this to me like this is unfair like this resistance I'm not saying everyone would feel like this but some people may have done and those people would have been pushed to face those final bits that they need to release so they can move into this year with the momentum they deserve because they've been doing sort of some inner work because I've seen it with loads of my clients where they're sort of feeling quite you know like a bit oh I love spirit but I don't feel like they've got my back like I don't feel like they're working with me and I'm like no they are because they're preparing you for something you just don't know

what it is yet you know yeah absolutely so that so that's a more sort of um if your life's been quite dramatic and big things have been happening if your life's been a bit more stable and not really external things you might have found internally a lot of things were going on so your mindsets releasing old beliefs that could be to do with money. It could be to do with love. It could be to do with parents, like what people think of you, you know, all those sorts of things. You know, you could really sort of sense that shift in your perspective because this sort of energy would have come through. And when I sort said before about sort of the feels, like you may have felt a lot last year. And you may have found

that you were feeling too much. Now, we do in the astrology, it's been very water dominant for quite a long time. So we have been very much in emotions for a while. We are moving to fire. So what I would say is if you have been feeling a lot, you've been lifting what needed to be lifted. And don't think that that's now who you are, this really emotional, unproductive person. Actually, you just needed to feel it because it was so stuck. And that's why I think, when I think about reincarnation, I think year nine's bring a lot of like karmic old soul stuff that needs to be released and you're sort of learning it through each of the years because you go from year one to nine and in those nine years each year has like a theme that you're working through and then sort of the ninth year is

that ultimate cleansing of that lesson lesson so that's sort of what could come up there um which is really interesting you know like what do you think about that sam how does that sort of feel for you. Yeah, no, I completely agree. I feel like I just keep thinking of so many different people or things in my own life that that can resonate to. So yeah, I absolutely agree with you. I think that it's for the simplicity of it is quite clear, like it's the year of the snake and the shedding of the skin. That it's like top and bottom just makes sense, doesn't it? So I can see how that is definitely the case and then going into this year is it the horse the fire horse yeah and a fire horse so again you imagine like this beautiful big horse like just charging

that then is the energy that then comes into this year so yeah i absolutely agree with that i feel like in last year yeah definitely i think i probably mine was probably more more like self-work yeah well that's what i was thinking yeah it was very internal the mindsets, the beliefs, sort of that stuff. So, and the thing is, what I just want to add is the Chinese New Year, we're still in the Wood Snake. We haven't left the Wood Snake until February. So we've still got longer here in the Wood Snake energy

before we move to the Firehouse, which actually connects quite well with when the Spring Equinox comes. It's sort of the Chinese New Year and then we go sort of within six weeks. We've got Spring Equinox or five weeks. but yeah for you it's been a lot of internalising you know and sort of belief systems and like with me it's not I've you know I had a really good year last year you know I've met someone you know all those sorts of things that maybe I didn't think was going to happen um but meeting someone's been really triggering you know like we have lots of we're very established adults in our 30s

with our own lives and then we've come together and it confronts stuff you know and a lot of things that I had deep rooted have come up in just by being seen by someone sort of in a permanent way and so it's been really interesting because I've had an amazing year but I feel like the inner work has been probably more intense than it's ever been you know which makes sense after the year nine yeah yeah so then year one so when we think about the numerology we're in it now it's not like the Chinese new year we're sort of we're already in this one energy. We're also in the Capricorn energy. We're also in the winter energy. So it's like, what does that mean? Well, Capricorn is very diligent and very hard

working. So you may find that you genuinely want to get up and make things happen with Capricorn. But also know that with Capricorn, it doesn't need to sort of make it happen in a rush, okay? Things don't need to happen quickly. This is about getting it done in the right way. and doing it properly, okay? It's not about rushing. And I think that's the biggest reminder of this time of year because, you know, we're hyped to set all our goals. And, you know, some of that is brilliant.

Obviously, Sam, you had your workshop. You're helping people set their goals. But also, if we work with the energy that benefits us, we know right now, okay, these are the goals I want to do. How am I going to actually make this happen? Okay, Capricong is going to do. join the gym. That's the sort of thing. I'm going to join the gym and I'm going to make a table on my fridge and I'm going to write the two classes a week I'm going to do. That's sort of a

it's not I'm going to go hardcore and starve myself and whatever. Like it's a plan. It's that sort of thing. But winter is slow and it's hibernation. It's about being inner and connecting to yourself. So like what Sam said with social media, it's like really coming inner to who you are and what you want for this year and, you know, journaling and, you know, having time, like having really good conversations with the right people about what you want and, you know, that sort of thing. So Capricorn is really good and winter kind of combine, you know, it's the energy that always happens. Capricorn is always in the winter. Plan, but don't rush. That's the message there, okay? Which is nice. Do it sort of how I'm in the concerns.

I basically don't leave here. I've got notepads everywhere. I'm creating. I'm writing. I'm in this place that's not very external. It's very internal right now. But then with the year number one, so, you know, like we said, this only happens every nine years. So it's like a rebirth. Obviously, we know what number one is. It's the start. So it's the start of this brand new cycle. So there's this real sense of like new beginnings, like independence, you know, really sort of moving forward with something, okay, something that's maybe felt harder in other years, okay? So it's sort of like, it's not just any old new year. It's a new year with the number one in the numerology. So it's really quite exciting. So no wonder we're sort of feeling excited because the one can be about

sort of like ideas sort of coming together. Oh, I've got this idea. I want to do this. feeling more confident to build it like I'm not tired I'm at the start of this new nine year cycle you know I'm not exhausted from all that stuff I'm like oh I'm just ready to start this new thing and and you might find that like there's a new sense of identity with a year number one like this is who I'm becoming like this is me and this is you know you know who am I well I know I know I'm going to really put this out there because you've released so much of it in the year nine. So for those of you that went through a lot of releasing and shedding in year nine, it's going to start making sense now. Okay. It's much lighter in the energy this sort of

year, like it's less deep and heavy. It's more about, you know, excitement, naivety. I don't know what's going to happen, but sod it. Let's give it a go. So with that, you know, you're kind of a bit more vulnerable but sometimes I find when you're more vulnerable and more naive you actually do stuff the more you know the less you do you know because you feel true yeah so there's kind of a bit of like a fuck it button energy with year well fuck it let's just give it a go let's try that you know it's that sort of thing um so yeah it's really nice so it's a really nice time to sort start your projects sort of redefine your goals um it's perfect for that so like my advice to anyone in the first two months of this year is really go inner and look at what you want from

your life in this nine year cycle. It's a long time. But really think about, you know, do you want to be a spiritual practitioner and you actually want to make that happen? You want to leave your corporate job. Do you want to stop being single and actually meet someone? Or do you want to leave what your comfort zone is in your career to do something else? whatever it is like this is the time to really go in up and that's why it's important we don't rush because it is the start of a long cycle this isn't just you know a quick win this is a big time where we can really sort of implement the foundations because that's what capricorn is it's building the foundations for the future and that's what this time is okay so it's really

inspiring you know so like with goals and stuff it's not telling you not to set your goals it's just saying don't rush them you know it's that sort of feeling and honestly sorry listening to you I'm just in awe I've loved listening to that I was already thinking like I'm going to listen back to this bit good yeah I'll skip everything I was chatting about to get to where Jess was chatting because yeah we'll tell everyone this so good honestly that was amazing thank you well it's good it's sort of this time so um also just one of little thing I want to add with the astrology is that Saturn, Sam and mine, our friend that's been in Pisces for the last two and a half years, is finally leaving in February. Okay,

we had another six months. So anyone who's sort of a water sign, you would have been feeling this, is moving to Ares. So we are going to feel that release and that limitation that Saturn's bringing in. And I'll be honest with you, I'm ready for it now. I'm done. I'm ready for Saturn to go. and I'm very grateful for Saturn, but, you know, we want to move forward now. And Ares is where Saturn is going to go to next. Aries is the first of the zodiacs. So again, it's this newness, this first, this beginning. So there is this story of like deep, deep beginnings happening right now.

Neptune is also moving into Ares. Neptune's a really spiritual planet. It's been in Pisces. We've all gone into sort of the spirit. world over the last 12 years, we're going to go into a different place now spiritually. I don't know what it's going to look like, but I'm really excited for it. So all I keep thinking is all these people that feel like their life has been sort of forced and pushed in certain directions and things haven't happened how they've wanted,

please know these are redirections for you that are leading you to this new energy that's come in. None of us can anticipate what we're about to experience because it is such new beginnings. And I say this all the time with my clients, I predict things and you go, no, I just don't see how that happens. And then they come to me six months later and they're like, oh, my God, this happened. And I'm like, but that's what it is. There's possibility out there. The possibility of these things are really, really possible, you know?

That's what is so important as well with like manifesting as well because you don't have to know how it's going to happen. You just need to know that it's going to happen. and you don't want to put too many limitations on what can happen. Because actually what can happen can be so much bigger than what you can even imagine right now. Yeah, exactly. So I just think, you know, it is a magical possibility. And I actually did a post about the in-between days of Christmas and New Year.

And I sort of said, you know, we laugh that we don't know what day it is. And Spirit were telling me this message. I woke up and it was all coming through. So I had to write it down. And they were like, this is the time where you ask. activate hope, you know, hope for the light to come back and hope for this newness that's arriving. And we feel that with the new year, but with all of this, we feel it even more. And you can tell how energized I am talking, because I'm channeling, all of this I'm

channeling by the way, guys, you're hearing me with spirit coming through. You can feel it. I can feel it. Yeah, absolutely. They're excited for us. Like they want this for us. And, you know, it's just important now that we we work with it in the right way love that's all it's good but just just to sort of add on like I say come into the app if you want more because there's so much more in there readings are available like my diary's open I'm actually opening extra days in January so that clients can book it in you can access the link within my profile on Instagram so my diary's open on Tuesdays Wednesdays and Thursdays for readings now which wasn't always the case so there's more availability it's nine to five UK time that I work

if you're feeling connected and a bit sort of this is aligning just just jump on a call with me because I do think you know you might get a lot from it I imagine you will get a lot from it yeah you will you will I wish that I could do that again like fresh like you not know anything about me yeah and me book reading with you and get to do that again because that was incredible I loved our first reading. And, yeah, I would love to do that again. So if you have the opportunity to do that, even if you've already had one with Jess,

but just do it, honestly, because you'll never, ever regret it. Yeah, no, there's a lot going on right now. There's a lot of stuff to activate. So jump on it. Don't hide away from it. Yeah. And I just wanted to say as well,
