About My Spiritual Journey (EN - IT)

I was just a teen (13 years old) when my dad brought home two wonderful books about Astrology for my mom, who had expressed some interest in that discipline. But mom gave up almost immediately (too complicated!), while I felt so much attracted to those books. I realized that for me that language was familiar. All the symbols, their meanings, and even the very complicated calculations to draw a natal chart (no home computers at that time!) had no secrets for me. In a few month

Imbolc Medit-Action and Announcement! (IT - EN)

February 1st is a special day - halfway between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. It's a moment of the year in which we can feel healing energies at work, and experience an increasing lightness in the air. I dedicated to this moment a Facebook "live" and I want to share it with you too. It's a very simple medit-action (active meditation, and also meditation to take action) meant to help you orient your steps towards the best possible future - that is something you

An Invitation to Radiantly Shine (EN - IT)

(Italian below / Italiano in fondo) I love this moment of the year. Even if it’s “the heart of Winter”, I can feel a change in the air. The days are longer, and there is an anticipation of Spring that I cannot explain, but I feel deep inside. It’s funny how my body responds to this moment. As soon as the Winter starts, I gain a couple of kilos (4 - 5 lbs) and there is nothing I can do to lose them until the end of January. But on February 1, and independently from what I ate

A Special Invitation / Un Invito Speciale (EN - IT)

Italian below/Italiano in fondo: It’s never easy to go through a move, and it’s even more difficult during these times. And especially after having been challenged by a wide range of invalidating symptoms for more than 2 years. Between 2015 and 2019 I faced many health challenges and even unexpected turns in my career. Perimenopause and then menopause overlapped the symptoms of so-called chronic fatigue syndrome due to multiple factors, from old injuries to viral infections.

Italian below/Italiano in fondo In many traditions and spiritual paths from different parts of the world, the days between October 31 and November 2 are considered sacred. This year, on October 31 we have also a Full Moon. In this video, that is the recording of the "live" Zoom meeting dedicated to this celebration, I'm going to share information and a meditation about connecting with this specific moment, and with our deepest resources.

“Know thyself, and thou shalt know all the mysteries of the Gods and of the Universe.” Temple of Apollo - Delphi. Why should we considerer our body our Temple, the Sacred Space and Instrument through which we can accomplish the “Great Work” and achieve any transformation in our life, inside and outside ourselves, and even support other people in their achievement of transformation? Why involve our body in-motion in this kind of “work of knowledge”? As a transdisciplinary teac

An opportunity to be reborn (En - It)

(Italian below/Italiano in fondo) I believe in the power of storytelling. Tales are powerful instruments able to support us in our journey of transformation. This is the reason why I love to write Fairy Tales enclosing gifts meant to help people overcome and dissolve any perceived obstacle, limitation and fear by awakening their inner and deepest resources. “The Fairy who aspired to the Sun” is one of my favourites, among the tales I wrote (I should write “channeled”, because

A reminder from the Moon (EN - IT)

(Italian below/Italiano in fondo) I love the way the Sky seems to reflect what happens on Earth. I started following the call of Astrology when I was 13 years old. My father gifted my mother with a spectacular book about Astrology, which she found too complicated. But for me, it looked like something I already knew. So, beside my interest for Astronomy, I started cultivating the knowledge of Astrology, this fascinating symbolic language connecting the human soul to celestial

Of Dragons and Ants (EN - IT)

(Italian below/Italiano in fondo) Today I was visiting my Guardian Dragon in the garden and a new Ant friend kept sticking with me, so I thought she was carrying a message. Well, with 6 planets retrograde this week, I think that it would be nice to extend her message to everybody, so I took a picture of her too, and I decided to write this post. For those who are not familiar with Astrology, a “retrograde” planet is a planet which apparently “goes backward”. It is just an opt

A Fire Ring around the Solstice (EN - IT)

Italian below/Italiano in fondo) New Moon phases are considered new beginnings. This coming one (June 21 6:41am UTC) brings us an Annular Eclipse. The name “annular” comes from the Latin word for ring, “annulus.” It happens when the Moon covers only the Sun's center, leaving the Sun's outer edges visible to form a “ring of fire”. Since the beginning of history, in most traditions and cultures worldwide the ring is a symbol of power, representing the infinity and the cycles o

Calling Awakened Women (EN - IT)

(Italian below/Italiano in fondo) More than 20 years ago I had a dream in which a Dragon (looking like the one in the photo) was involved, and in which I experienced an intense connection with Mother Nature. Since that moment I felt called to work with women in order to empower them and help them reconnect with their inner nature, that is also the essence of Nature itself. Why work with women? Because a woman’s physical structure and physiology - independently from her sexual

Dancing Nature and the Moon Phases (EN - IT)

Italian below/Italiano in fondo According to Western Astrology and some of the spiritual traditions I am connected with and from which I draw on, the last three days of the Waning Moon Phase are called "Balsamic Moon". These days are recommended for practices like meditation, connection with the deepest level of the self, work on self transformation and also for cleansing our path from those thoughts, habits and patterns interfering with our personal development. This can hel

Thoughts from the Wining Moon (EN - IT)

(Italiano in fondo /Italian below) I remember my grandfather, who observed the moon phases to bottle wine at the right time. I remember my grandmother, who observed the seasons as well as the moon phases to decide what and when to sow. We've flattened everything in recent decades, in the name of productivity. Lost touch with the seasons. Lost touch with lunar cycles. Lost touch with our internal cycles, pretending to be efficient every day like any other, regardless of our ho

Some thoughts (Italian below / Italiano in fondo).

"Am I spiritual enough?" (EN - IT)

In my role as a teacher, life coach and trainer (a very creative one, I would add…) for women interested in mind-body-spirit balance, self improvement, healing, self-actualization and transformation, I hear very often questions like: “My friends say I’m not spiritual enough and this is the reason why I was injured/I got sick. Should I become more spiritual to heal?” Or: “Should I attend workshops like reiki, crystals, chakras, etc. in order to develop my spiritual self?” Very

"Cartoonizable" me... (EN - IT)

When I was a very little child I had many dreams, among which I dreamt of working for the Walt Disney Studios in order to make people feel happy and uplifted. Well, obviously I was totally in love with all the cartoons produced by “Walt Disney”, to whom I used to think as he was still alive and committed in creating personally all the characters I loved so much. I could keep watching Snow White, Cinderella and The Sleeping Beauty hundred times. So many times I dreamt of bein
