How to Create Your Own Energy Forecast

If you love my free weekly energy forecasts in your inbox, or the free monthly forecast on The Guided Collective Podcast, or even the deep dive into the collective energy for the year ahead, you can now add layered context and meaning by creating your own personal energy forecast. Below is your step by step guide.

What is an energy forecast?

Before we get started, you may be wondering what is an energy forecast? Well, I work with my Spiritual Support Team to tell me about the energy fields for the collective, or an individual in a personal reading. By understanding the flow of that energy, we can best prepare for what’s ahead —where we may feel an expansion, contraction or some other healing.

There are energy flows influencing the timings and ease of delivery of those intentions. These energies can also influence how we navigate our own path and purpose. (*influence, not control!). ⁠ ⁠

And this is exactly what I outline in my energy forecasts.⁠ When we understand the energy, we can maximise how we work with it, when we focus inward, then we focus outward. ⁠

How to perform your own energy forecast

You’ll need: 

To perform your own forecast simply follow the steps below. 

1. Centre yourself and tune in. Sit with your oracle cards and meditate. Call in your Spiritual Support Team and tune into your guidance. This might look like a meditation or a few deep breaths. Maybe it’s a yoga sequence or a nature walk to bring you to your centre. I often recommend my Ground, Clear and Protect meditation, which is great to use before any kind of guidance work, or maybe even one of my meditations for meeting your spirit guide or higher self, if you prefer to be guided in. This can be as simple as focusing on your breathing, going into your heart space and tuning in. However you get there, the first step is to come to centre and tune in. 

2. Set your intention. For an annual forecast, you’d intend to tune into the energy and themes for the next twelve months, for ourselves. You might like to create a positive affirmation or statement, such as “I intend to open to receive any insights and guidance for my divine life path over the next twelve months.” The main point in this step is simply relax and intend to receive whatever insights you’re meant to receive, however they’re meant to come. 

3. Work with your oracle cards. We’re going to work with a spread for twelve months. You can use my oracle card spread as a guide for your own layout. A few things to note before you start turning cards: 

  • Start by pulling one card, with the intention: “I am open to guidance about the overall theme for the next twelve months for me”. Place this card separately to the other cards you’ll pull for each month. 

  • Then to pull a card for each month, take another deep breath and reconnect to your intention. My intention here becomes “I am open to guidance about the energy and themes for (insert month).” 

  • You may also like to pull additional cards for other things you might like to ask about, for example, like key lessons, purpose, relationships etc. It’s your forecast, so feel free to play with it a bit.

Please know, your insights through this process may come to you in different ways. Maybe your clairvoyance is strong and you’ll see loads of images, or perhaps you’re more clairsentient, so your messages will come through sensations or hunches while a more clairaudient reader may hear spirit whisper to you. I talk about this much more deeply in my books and programs, suffice to say here —go with it!  

Pro tip: I pull out a card, write it down and place it back in the deck… just in case spirit wants to bring up the same card again later. You may have the same theme for multiple months! 

4. Record your insights and impressions. Keeping a journal of my readings and guidance was single handedly the best thing I did to enhance my own intuition. So, I highly recommend it for you, too. I’ve created my own Head and Heart Digital Planner with everything you need, including oracle card spreads. Of course, you can also make notes directly into this forecast, too. 

5. Now, put it aside. You might like to take a photo of the cards and post it somewhere you’ll often see it, like a wallpaper on your phone or desktop screensaver. Once you’ve completed your forecast, put the messages and interpretations aside. Your job is not to prove the forecast right. Your job is to be in the observer mode - to watch for synchronicities, to feel into the energies and allow yourself to grow and transform from working with them.


6. Create a regular practice for reflection. At the transition point between one month and the next, take a little time to reflect. Revisit your journal and observations and notice what came to be. 

  • How did the theme play out? 

  • Was it like you expected? 

  • Where did it mean something else? 

  • What surprises came up? 

  • How did this influence your month and your own plans? 

  • Do you need to dive in deep to the themes in your own life?
