New Moon Energy, Silent Competition and Showing Up as Your Truest Self
Episode Overview
- Use the new moon in Scorpio to reflect, release old patterns, and close out lingering emotional baggage rather than launching fresh projects.
- Notice and step away from relationships built on silent competition, rivalry or one-sided energy; choose peace and authenticity instead.
- Trust your intuition and creative gifts rather than outsourcing everything to AI, especially for projects like books or businesses.
- Allow yourself to show up fully as you are, even if some people find it "too much"—your real tribe will value your true self.
- Prioritise safety on nights out: avoid accepting drinks from strangers, don’t leave drinks unattended, use the buddy system and skip second locations.
“When it comes to you, you better stop playing about you.”
Set against a soft Spotify jazz playlist, Shay breaks down the upcoming new moon in Scorpio, explaining how this phase is less about starting new projects and more about “deep reflection, emotional purging, releasing old baggage and tying up loose ends.” You’ll hear her use astrology and tarot as tools for self-reflection, including a pull of the Knight of Wands, Four of Swords, Five of Wands, Three of Cups, Knight of Pentacles and High Priestess to talk about burnout, secret competition and finding your true soul tribe.
Curious about how others navigate their sobriety journey? Life’s Spice Podcast brings a raw, cosy Sunday vibe as host Shay talks jazz, new moon energy, and what it means to back yourself fully when you're not feeling your brightest. Shay shares openly about feeling like the "weirdo" growing up, complicated friendships with other women, and the loneliness of choosing peace over silent rivalry.
Her message is clear: “When it comes to you, you better stop playing about you.” That hits especially hard for anyone rebuilding self-esteem, setting boundaries, or untangling from unhealthy dynamics. She also calls out over-reliance on AI for creative work, arguing that using tools instead of your own voice can block your blessings. For those who’ve used substances to hide or mute their true selves, her focus on authentic expression, even when it feels cringey, might land close to home.
Towards the end, Shay shifts into practical safety reminders: sticking to the buddy system on nights out, never accepting or leaving drinks unattended, skipping second locations, and being extra mindful of online dating. It’s candid big-sister energy with a spiritual twist. If you’re into self-love, boundaries, astrology, or just need a comforting voice reminding you that you’re allowed to be fully you, this one might be exactly what you need today. What old baggage are you finally ready to drop?
