I write this piece from the desert of Central Australia, having just completed one of Australia’s most classic road trips — crossing the Nullarbor Plains from Esperance, WA to the Eyre Peninsula, SA. It really is an epic journey, one that I highly recommend every Australian should aspire to do at least once in their life.
November marked the two year anniversary of life on the road in my caravan. It’s been two whole years of adventures, living life simply, and deepening my connection with Pachamamma. This solo caravan journey around Australia has very much been a spiritual pilgrimage, and it’s fascinating to me how closely it mirrors both my inner spiritual journey, and the rhythms of the Earth’s cycles.
The first year on the road was about finding my feet amongst a whirlwind of new challenges. I journeyed from Victoria to South Australia, then ascended through the desert lands and heart of the country — through the Northern Territory, and across the top of Western Australia. This ascension journey was about activating my fire energy — my confidence, power, creativity, and joy.
It was the Year of the Dragon, and both a personal, and collective 8 year. These archetypes correspond to the fire energy I was activating — confidence, creativity, success, elevation, and harvest. My life’s experiences mirroring my land journey, and the Earth’s cycles. It was such a profound activation, and metamorphosis (which has inspired the Uluru Retreat in May 2026 — more to come on this soon).
The second year on the road was about settling into a rhythm. My journey started in the northwest corner of Western Australia, and descended down along the coast to the southeast corner, and across the Nullarbor Plains — completing a half-lap of Australia in two years. This descension journey was about activating my water energy — descending into the depths, and shedding what no longer serves.
It was the Year of the Snake, and both a personal, and collective 9 year. These archetypes correspond to the water energy I was activating — questioning everything, shedding, endings, and completions. Adding an astrological flavour — my relocation chart for this south-west region of WA had 6 planets in the 12th house, further amplifying the water energy, endings, and completions. I was drawn to slow down, and spend time in one place where I was deeply held, and supported by Mother Nature in my descent. My life’s experiences once again mirroring my land journey, and the Earth’s cycles.
As this 9 year draws to a close, in that liminal space between what once was, and what is yet to be, I found myself driving east along the Eyre Highway, crossing the vast void space of the middle of Australia.
As I drove through Caiguna, WA, I crossed into a different time zone — one that I had never heard of before — the Central Western Time Zone. It is 45 minutes ahead of the rest of Western Australia, and geographically covers only a very small area. A strange concept — having a 45 minute time zone change (why not 1 hour?), and for such a small area. My iPhone automatically reflected this time zone change, as it normally does. However, in the couple of weeks I spent there, I noticed my iPhone glitching, and switching between time zones.
Along the Eyre Highway and Nullarbor Plains are a series of sinkholes that open up into a hidden, underground cave system. Like entry points into Middle Earth, and the Earth Womb. For some reason, they are not sign-posted, and kept relatively secret from the public.
This land feels like a portal — the liminal, void space. A portal between worlds, and timelines. A portal between the closing of the 9 year, and opening of the 1 year. And a physical portal between the west, and east populations of Australia.
As I crossed the border into South Australia, and landed at the famous Bunda Cliffs, overlooking the Great Australian Bight — it honestly felt like I had crossed a threshold, and shifted timelines. The time zone shifted 1 hour, 45 minutes, and eventually stopped glitching. I instantly felt lighter, and the heaviness of the 9 year wash away.
On my first day in the new timeline I came across True Sidereal Astrology, which mirrors Mother Nature. The Zodiac signs match the actual constellations in the sky — exactly what I’ve been gazing up at in the starry desert skies. It also introduces a 13th sign Ophiuchus, that sits along the ecliptic like all the other constellations, between Scorpio, and Sagittarius, right on the Galactic Centre, the Cosmic Womb. Ophiuchus, the Serpent Bearer, was where the Sun was currently sitting in the sky. Ophiuchus represents the Higher Self — it is the resurrection (after the Scorpio death), cosmic knowledge, the shaman, and Christ consciousness. It holds very powerful, divine energies. There’s a reason it’s been kept hidden from humanity through our patriarchal reign.
In the Divine Feminine mysteries, our personal womb space is a portal to the divine Cosmic Womb, and Earth Womb. Here I was on the Nullarbor Plains, experiencing a physical connection to the Earth Womb through the underground cave system, and now the Cosmic Womb, through the 13th constellation, Ophiuchus, in the Galactic Centre.
With True Sidereal Astrology, on my first day in the new timeline, I was handed a treasure map to my new identity — one that is ready to be birthed as we step into the Year of the Horse, which is my personal Chinese Zodiac, and both a personal, and collective 1 year.
I felt a deep resonance with the shift in my Astrology, Human Design, and Gene Keys profiles, all painting an exquisitely accurate picture of my Higher Self, and the person I’m becoming.
I’m a Libra Sun, Taurus Moon, and Sagittarius Rising. I have a stellium in Virgo, including my midheaven. I also have two planets in Ophiuchus, the Cosmic Womb. I’m a Reflector type in Human Design. These all paint a picture of the Divine Feminine lineage, and my role in awakening that frequency.
I did previously identify with my Tropical Astrology, and Gene Keys profiles. However, I never did resonate with my Human Design. The stories of some of the planets, and aspects were previously a bit vague, perhaps a loose fit, that in retrospect I was trying to fit myself into something that wasn’t quite me. I’ve shifted from being a Manifesting Generator to a Reflector, and from Saturn-ruled to Jupiter-ruled.
The way I see the various systems inter-relating, is by picturing a music studio — the mixing board has many dials that can shift the emphasis of different notes, tones, rhythms, and beats. Each of us have our own song. The various systems produce the same song, but with different mixes, and different emphasis on the notes, tones, rhythms, and beats.
The Tropical system emphasises my earthly traits, and the challenges of my pre-awakening self. Collectively, we’ve been experiencing such accelerated growth, that I feel I outgrew my Tropical birth chart, and was cycling around the never-ending Wheel (of Fortune). I had my North Node in Virgo, pointing towards the Divine Feminine lineage. It feels like I’ve walked down the tunnel of my North Node, and it’s opened up into a whole new blueprint for my soul’s evolution. I’ve essentially spiralled out of the cycle of the Wheel into a celestial timeline.
It’s no coincidence that I came across the wisdom of the 13th sign Ophiuchus when I did. That’s how it works with awakening levels of consciousness — what was once hidden, is now revealed. And I believe the wisdom arrives at exactly the right moment when you’re ready for it.
I honestly couldn’t make this up. The synchronicities, connections, and correspondences have only become clear as I reflect on my journey with hindsight. This shows the power of living in sync with Mother Nature, and the Earth’s rhythms, and cycles. There’s a felt sense of being on the right path, even as that path is winding with twists, and turns, ascents, and descents. It deepens my trust that I’ll always be supported, and gives me the courage to take relatively blind leaps of faith.
My sense is that True Sidereal is a key that unlocks a new timeline, and a powerful tool to help navigate the shift in consciousness as we move towards the New Earth.
If you felt a spark of curiosity, and would like to unveil your own True Sidereal Celestial Blueprint, please reach out. I’d love to help you uncover your celestial self.
If connecting with the land on a spiritual pilgrimage is calling to you, I’m hosting a retreat at Uluru, NT Australia in May 2026.
Metamorphosis: The Retreat — a spiritual pilgrimage for those called to weave soul, land, and sacred business into a living metamorphosis.
A fire-lit gathering to awaken your womb wisdom, restore creative life-force, and birth the next evolution of your sacred work — without distortion.
