Love and Prayer: A Sanctuary in Shifting Times.

How are you Gorgeous Soul?

First off, thank you so much for all your glorious Birthday messages and wishes, they were greatly received and appreciated.

I will say being dressed up as an inflatable T-Rex with Unicorn friends, dancing and blowing bubbles on the Legislature lawn and wandering the Inner Harbour was pretty frigging epic, and it made so many people laugh and smile.

One woman cried as she was having a dismal day and encountering us and being invited to play, be hugged helped.

Though trying to fit us all into a Horse Drawn Carriage was hilarious, so there was a lot of laughter (which is glorious medicine). (Donner, the horse was very patient with us!)

Secondly, yes there are a few spaces left for the Equinox Reading Special. Which ends on September 30th.

Okay, we are going to talk about LOVE AND PRAYER this week.

Now you may be thinking – ummmm, errr, Jenny WTF? Let me explain.

The World is Pretty Chaotic at the moment – yes?

And if you are someone who gets lost in the chaos by having the news blaring all the time it can knock you off center, take you into the place of divisiveness and judgement.

This month and especially this last week have been full on! Full on with clients, teaching, leading amazing ceremonies, weddings, celebrations and choosing to show up at 100%.

Yes we have multiple strikes happening, yes various world leaders are bonkers, yes some days it takes a lot of energy to get out of bed and stay out of fear.

So what helps? LOVE AND PRAYER

We all know those days. The ones that begin sideways before your first sip of coffee—when nothing flows and everything feels too much.

Or the quieter struggles: bills piling, sales stalling, that ache of “why me, why now?”

Here’s the truth: there is a way through.

A simple, sacred formula. Stand in love. Begin with prayer.

When we stand in love, blame softens. Perspective widens.

Life’s storms don’t vanish, but they shrink to their proper size. We shift from asking what we can get to what we can give.

And then—prayer. Five minutes, thirty, whispered words or silent breath. Ancient chants or a raw “Dear God, what the hell?” There is no wrong way.

Prayer lifts us out of ego, reconnects us to grace, reminds us of what we already carry: love, generosity, breath, life.

Some days it will feel alive and luminous, others flat and routine. Pray anyway. The practice itself is the gift.

Prayer nourishes our spirit, blesses those we love, and opens the heart wide enough to bless strangers too.

It doesn’t need to be grand. A whispered word in traffic. A cup of coffee on the porch. A song half-sung to the sky.

Prayer and love are the threads that hold us steady when life feels unravelled. They remind us that even in challenge, we are connected, seen, and never alone.

Okay, I have chuntered on long enough.  Let’s crack on with the reading.  

When I asked the cards who wanted to talk and guide this week I laughed to see that it is the  delicious Spirit of the Animals.  

Okay delicious lovely, take a gorgeous deep breath and allow your shoulders to drop and your jaw to gently relax.  I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a place of stillness, a place filled with ease and flow, a place where you feel connected to earth and source. 

From this place pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

There is a glorious guided visualisation for you, if you choose. It’s fun!

Did you Remember to Pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

PENGUIN

Authentic

Penguin is the bird that cannot fly but instead swims.  They can see better underwater than on land, symbolising better access to the subconscious mind than usual.  

Penguins are full of surprises just like the people they represent.  The males and females experience role reversals.  Male penguins will sit on the eggs for months while their female counterparts hunt for food.  

Penguin urges you to adapt to extreme circumstances, break free from expectations and reinvent yourself.  Penguin says adapt, change, find your tribe, sing and celebrate your uniqueness.

Penguin people often feel awkward or out of place.  Tapping into Penguin energy can help you embrace your differences.  Self – acceptance is a big part of Penguin medicine.  They remind us that there is no right way to be!

Like all diving birds, Penguin relates to the truth that lies below the surface.  Maybe Penguin is telling you to go below, find your deeper truth and your most authentic self.  

These are things in life that really matter.  Finding like minded people (your tribe) will help you see your beauty as you see theirs.  

The wisdom of Penguin asks you to just be the unique and colourful person that you are!

Break free from others’ expectations.

Love your uniqueness.  Just be Yourself!

PRONGHORN

Action

While it is often called an antelope, the pronghorn is a unique species native to North America.  Their thick hide protects them from the cold and predators.

Pronghorns’ energy, quick wit and speed are their gifts.

They never drop their antlers, which like antennas represent connection spirit, psychic abilities and intuition.  

For Pronghorn, these gifts remain a constant in their lives.  Their strong sense of smell and hearing helps them know when things are not right.

If Pronghorn has come to you, you are energetic and have an agile mind.  You will have all you ever need.  Your intuitive gifts help keep you alerted to danger when you listen.

There is a new path on offer, use your keen eyesight to find the way. In other words, the Antelope meaning reminds you to make your decisions wisely by using your instincts rather than your intellect

Pronghorn people are ultimate adaptors and possess the power of survival.  If Pronghorn crosses your path it is saying “Do it now, don’t wait.”  Trust your intuition, harness your courage and get ready to “take the leap.”

Your talents will always

Help you land on the pinnacle.

Your quick wit and keen senses 

Will lead you to success.

SEA OTTER

Happiness

You are being called to the spontaneous art of playful living.  

Otter people swim in the iconic watery world of their intuition and feelings.  Otter people are inclusive and welcome the company of family, tribe and community.

Otter people know how to “go with the flow” and master celebrating life with simple things.  

Otter energy is the playfulness of a child, available to us at any age.  They have a giddiness and reverence for life itself, without the presence of doubt, worry, or skepticism.

Are you fighting life’s currents?  

Imagine yourself with a little more Otter energy.  What would life look like?  What would it take to bring you there?

Your inner child needs room to frolic and play and if you let it out, you will be sure to enjoy life and not simply endure it.  Let Otter lead you to all that is good in the world: happiness, abundance, friends and love.  The celebration awaits!

Be the master of playful living.

Release expectations and enjoy every day.

Let worry go and instead choose love.

Surrender to the waves.

Your good destiny of love is sure.

What glorious guides for this week as we head into October! Wishing you a stupendous week filled with Ease, Love, Joy and Remembering – You are okay! Big hugs and squeezes!
