🐍 Reawakening: Emerging from the Cave

Wild Ones,

I feel like I’ve just stepped out of a long winter den, shaking off the last clinging snowflakes of a deep hibernation. Even though it’s the heat of August, my soul has been curled in a quiet cave, listening, dreaming, and letting old skins fall away.

This Lion’s Gate portal and Aquarius Full Moon burned bright — a cosmic bonfire that seemed to sweep through the halls of my inner world, clearing the dust and ashes of what no longer belongs. And then… stillness. Silence. The deep, primal pause after the fire.

The Spring and Bear cards found me this week — two messengers confirming what I already felt in my bones: the thaw is here. It’s time to emerge, to stretch awake, to blink into the new light with soft eyes and an open heart.

The Bear teaches us that hibernation isn’t stagnation — it’s gestation. A time when the deepest alchemy happens in the dark. Spring reminds us that after the long night, there is always the return of warmth, color, and possibility. Together, they speak of rebirth after endurance, and the courage to step forward again, changed.

And so… I’m reintroducing myself.

I’m Leah — writer, coach, mapmaker of the mythic terrain of the soul, and founder of Sovereign Serpent Coaching. My work is for the wild-hearted woman who knows there’s more to her life than the script she’s been given, and who’s ready to meet herself again — this time with honesty, reverence, and fire.

Over my quiet season, I began tending a new daily framework. It’s simple, but it’s become the bones and breath of my days. And now, I want to share it with you.

The S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Framework

Sovereign Serpent Coaching was born from the truth that transformation is cyclical, embodied, and fiercely personal. This framework is my own living practice — a rhythm I return to daily to keep my body, mind, and spirit aligned.

S — Sunrise Walk

Begin in communion with the world’s first light. Walking under the rising sun is a way of saying yes to the day before the noise begins. It’s how I greet both the outer horizon and my own inner dawn.

E — Elevate

Feed the mind something nourishing. This might be a book, an audiobook, a podcast — anything that expands perception, challenges the small self, and invites bigger thoughts.

R — Reflection

This is a “stacked” practice: journaling, meditation, and dream work. Together, they anchor me in self-awareness, help me track the whispers of my unconscious, and create a bridge between waking and dreaming life.

P — Power

Movement that builds strength in both body and will — weightlifting, yoga, cardio, dance. It’s not just exercise; it’s a ritual of inhabiting my body fully, claiming my vitality, and letting energy move through me.

E — Eudaimonia

A Greek word meaning happy daimon. In Jung’s language, the daimon is the inner guiding spirit — our direct line to the Divine. Eudaimonia isn’t mere happiness; it’s the deep, soul-level fulfillment that comes when we align our lives with the work we were born to do. Each day, I devote at least 90 uninterrupted minutes to something that lights me up from the inside — writing, creating, coaching — as an offering to my daimon.

N — Nourishment

Beyond food, nourishment includes the people you spend time with, the spaces you inhabit, the conversations you engage in, the activities you choose, and the thoughts you entertain. It’s the art of feeding yourself in every dimension.

T — Temple

Your body is a sacred place — the dwelling of your spirit. Caring for it with reverence transforms self-care into devotion. Baths, sauna, massage, rest, breath work, stretching — these are not luxuries, but rites of honoring the vessel you live in.

This is the spine of my days now — my way of tending the flame, staying rooted, and moving in harmony with my own wild nature.

I’m stepping forward with a new clarity, a quieter confidence, and a deeper trust in the cycles that shape me. I know many of you have been moving through your own seasons of fire, shadow, and rebirth. Maybe the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. will speak to you, too.

Here’s to the courage of reemergence.Here’s to the new skin we grow.Here’s to meeting the dawn — again and again.

BIG Love and Sovereignty,

Leah,

Founder of Sovereign Serpent Coaching
