Your Cosmic Purpose by Kirsty Gallagher

Kirsty Gallagher’s Your Cosmic Purpose offers readers a gentle yet richly textured exploration into what it means to live in alignment with one’s soul, to reconnect with inner truth, and to find deeper meaning in each day.

From the outset of Your Cosmic Purpose Gallagher writes from a place of deep knowing and personal experience; she does not present herself as having all the answers, but rather as someone who has walked a winding path of soul seeking, spiritual healing, and rediscovery. This humility and authenticity are among the book’s greatest strengths, making it both inspiring and accessible to anyone who has ever wondered: “Is there something more? Is there something about me I have lost, or forgotten?”

The book is structured in three parts. In the first, Gallagher guides the reader to reconnect with the “soul self”—the part of our being that often becomes overshadowed by the demands and expectations of modern life. She invites reflection on what we may have abandoned in ourselves: our dreams, our intuition, our sense of wonder. There is a soothing quality here, a permission to slow down, to notice, to turn inward. Gallagher shares journaling prompts, meditations, personal stories, and spiritual practices which gently open a space for trust: trust in one’s own being, trust in unseen forces, trust in the possibility of purpose.

In the second part, Gallagher moves toward embodiment—how one can live out the purpose that one senses or glimpses. She lays out practical ways to begin to integrate spiritual insight into everyday life. Themes such as healing self‑worth wounds, raising one’s vibration, engaging with fears, and attending to subtle inner guidance are woven together with compassion and grounded suggestion. Gallagher doesn’t suggest that this integration is easy or instantaneous; rather she honours the challenge and the messiness that often accompanies growth. Yet she also provides tools with which readers may care for themselves tenderly during times of disorientation, when values shift or resistance arises.

In the third section the book turns toward astrology and soul blueprint, offering readers a guide to interpreting their birth chart and understanding astrological transits. For those who are drawn to astrology, this feels like a hand held as much as it is a gateway to deeper insights: a way of mapping the inner terrain using symbolic language, recognising patterns, potentials, and challenges. Gallagher presents this section not as dogma, but as a mirror—an invitation to see parts of oneself one may not yet have acknowledged, and to reclaim what has been lost or dimmed.

What is particularly healing about Your Cosmic Purpose is its tone. Gallagher speaks with warmth, compassion, curiosity, and patience. There is a sense that she believes in the inherent goodness of life, in the possibility of transformation, but also in the legitimacy of struggle. There is no shame in not yet knowing, in being wounded, in feeling disconnected. And yet there is always hope. The reader is held, not pushed, toward remembering who they are and what they came here to offer.

For counselling clients, spiritual seekers, or anyone curious about purpose and alignment, this book may serve multiple roles: as a companion when things feel lost, as a catalyst for asking deeper questions, and as a bridge between spiritual ideas and everyday living. It may not resonate in every part with everyone—some chapters will feel more intuitively meaningful than others depending on one’s beliefs, background, or familiarity with spiritual language.

But even in parts less immediately applicable, the overall effect is often one of coaxing back

to oneself, remembering inner wisdom, and recognising that purpose is not a destination but a living, evolving process.

Some readers might find the depth of content —astrology, past lives, vibration work—a bit too much, however, I have included it in my inspirational reads, as I feel her descriptions of living in tune with your soul sound similar to our work in therapy on living in tune with our authentic selves.

I feel the book also brings hope to the unexplainable parts of human logic! Some may wish for more grounding in psychological research, or more case examples of how these ideas have been woven into healing in therapeutic settings. But Gallagher does generally manage to balance the mystical with the tangible, the spiritual with lived human experience, making the book rich yet navigable, enchanting yet supportive of real change.
