Full Moon
I love Full Moons 😊 It was too cloudy to capture the Blood Moon in all its glory earlier in the week, but this was the view from my back door last night 😊 The phone camera really doesn’t do justice to how spectacular it was 😊 Did you get any moon shots?

WHERE’S THE WATER RANT ALERT!
We have had beautiful Spring weather in Ireland for the last few days. Everything is drying up after weeks and weeks of relentless rain 😊 Everyone - including our horses - is in better form. The evenings are brighter and Mother Nature is waking up 😊 It’s all very lovely. But here’s what’s bugging me …. That relentless rain is just gone. All those gallons of water that fell from the sky soaked into the land and made it waterlogged. Fields were too wet to use, and too wet to drive on, and the excess water became a threat to the environment in agricultural areas. On the other hand, we’re reading about a potential ‘water famine’ (which I think is just a new term for ‘drought’) because of the demands of the ever-increasing number of data centres needed to power AI. Like it or not, the AI genie is well and truly out of the bottle and is never going back. Just like air travel and family cars and all the other modern conveniences we’ve become accustomed to, it’s here to stay. We can’t undo AI - but we can be smart about how we manage it. If the volume of rain that fell in the first couple of months of 2026 had been collected, nobody would have to be worried about any kind of drought. As a species, we really to work smarter! QUESTION What’s annoying you right now?

Rain came back again here 🌧️🤦🏻‍♀️🤞not for too long more I’ve add to this little rant … It really is so wasteful of all places in the world . how we don’t have the best water system and quality in the world is a bit mind boggling. especially with all the rain we experienced in comparison to other places in the world …. as well we most have so many highly educated graduates every year being educated that could help come up with real life solutions for every household & farm , business on ways to improve our country’s water systems… Instead (the so called ones that make the decisions ) don’t use the educated minds to come up with solutions . They decide a good idea would be to spend billions on a pipeline from Loughderg to Dublin for water that will need to be highly treated ( as even as a child I wouldn’t have drank from it )and it will most likely become more problematic as time goes on as there will be less water in the river/lake with abstraction for lough derg ( causing environmental destruction) but oh well but they won’t fix the leaks in Dublin first place 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Welcome Tracey, I can highly recommend and I really value the learning in the courses and training provided by Horses Connect. Eileen & Mary have created such a welcoming supportive space and have a beautiful way to share their knowledge and they truly mentor well beyond their courses in EAL & EALPD. I am base in Clare and so traveled the road up and down to Galway many times with each trip I came home with always my knowledge expanded and have got the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people working in the EAS community from around the country. Best wishes with your learning .
EMPATHS, PROTECT YOUR ENERGY!
This post will either make total sense to you or none at all! 😍 If you work with horses or even feel drawn to them there’s a good chance you’re someone who senses the emotional weather around you long before anyone says a word. That sensitivity is a gift, but it also means that your own energy needs conscious care. Right now the whole world feels loud, fast, and unsettled in so many ways. When collective energy rises like this, empaths often try, without even noticing, to hold more than their share. So this is your reminder that you don’t have to carry everything. One of the simplest ways to reset is to spend quiet, undemanding time with horses - or any animal, or in nature 🪾 Not training. Not fixing. Not ‘doing’ anything! Just sitting nearby. Breathing. Allowing your nervous system to slow as theirs does. Horses invite us back to presence . Notice the steady rhythm of breath, the sound of hooves shifting or tails swishing, the calm awareness of being here, now. Let them help you empty the emotional pockets you didn’t realise were filling! Protecting our own allows us to keep showing up with clarity, kindness, and integrity for the people and horses who rely on us. QUESTION: How are the huge shifts happening in the world right now affecting your energy?

Yes this post made total sense yesterday when I seen it and so i took as a literal sign to give myself some extra grace to go be like the horse in the image and go rest with an early night…by tap out of the world unapologetically 🥰✨ a shift is happening for sure . It can be full on having to be an individual that feels the intensity of such shifts yet whenever we acknowledged them so much more is recognized and received. Always thankful of my little herd whom have been happy for me to join just being with them while learning to nativigate these shifts in through horse style . There great little teachers and reminders. I am also so grateful to be one of the conscious beings able to acknowledge shifts like these for what they are instead of someone on the other side of the spectrum whom can be so obvious to anything changes around them.
HOW’S YOUR HORSEPOWER ?
Quick check-in 😊 If your current energy level was a horse, which one would it be? There are no wrong answers. Energy naturally ebbs and flows. Where are you today? And more importantly… what might help you move one step closer to the energy you you’d like to have?

🤣lol as soon as i seen the last one . There was a few moments today that i would have gladly embraced the Mare. Recently I have needed to let myself be like the field lounging retiree but I am calling in that a shift is to emerge any day of the happy Hacker pace ✨
