How to Close 2025 with Ritual, Reflection and Deep Knowing.

· ·

Dear Gorgeous Soul,

Go on, make yourself a large cuppa of something warm and a little magickal, because we have so much to chat about this week. Are you ready? Settled? Cosy? Good. Let’s begin.

We are standing at a truly potent crossroads.

The very last New Moon of 2025 arrives this Friday, the 19th.

Solstice — which I friggin’ love — is racing toward us with her golden-dark mystery.

The Omen Days journey is open (and oh, I hope you’ll join us — it’s a genuine game-changer when it comes to putting a year to bed and consciously calling in the next… just ask the last 250 people who travelled it with us 😏).

Add in Personal Theme Readings, and the Book of Winter Solstice, which is my heartfelt Solstice gift to you for being such a magnificent bean, and well… you can feel how thick the magic is in the air.

So where do we begin?

I’m starting exactly where my bones insist we do — with The Omen Days, also known as the Sacred Days or Yuletide.

These luminous days stretch from Boxing Day through to January 6th. And yes, this is where the “12 Days of Christmas” comes from — a little cultural borrowing from something far older and wiser.

Historically, these days existed to bring the Roman calendar back into alignment with the solar year. Energetically, though, they are something far more delicious.

They are considered time out of time, a liminal pause where the usual rules soften and we slip between worlds. It’s as though we step outside the calendar altogether.

And if you pause for a moment, you’ll notice that our modern culture still feels this.

That strange, floaty stretch between Christmas and the New Year — when time feels bendy, when we’re neither fully here nor there, half dreaming and half emerging. That’s not accidental.

That’s the doorway.

This is where the real magic of closing a year happens. This is where 2025 is gently alchemised, and the seeds of 2026 are quietly planted.

This is why I created the Omen Days journey — a rich, nourishing experience filled with ritual, reflection, community, and warmth.

It’s an invitation to release the tired idea of New Year’s resolutions and instead close the year in a way you can actually feel — in your bones, your body, your cells.

One that stirs ancient memory and deep knowing. I would love for you to experience that.

Registration is open until December 22nd (and we also gather together for Solstice this coming weekend), and the timing could not be more perfect — because it flows straight into what’s happening in the sky.

The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 19th is the final New Moon of 2025.

It’s believed that the heart of our Milky Way galaxy rests at 27 degrees of Sagittarius, and this New Moon activates 28 degrees — a cosmic threshold if ever there was one.

A powerful way to close the year.

New Moons are portals. They are invitations to turn inward, to recalibrate, to listen for new inspiration. Under a New Moon, insights arrive quietly, intentions take shape, and new directions begin to whisper.

With the Galactic Centre activated, the energy of this New Moon feels wide, expansive, and full of possibility. It reminds us that we are not stuck. We are not limited. We do not have to stay where we are if it no longer fits. We can simply lift our arrow… and aim it somewhere new.

So ask yourself gently: what is no longer yours to carry? What belongs in the ashes of 2025? What are you ready to release with compassion, forgiveness, and grace?

And then dream.

If you weren’t afraid — of failing or succeeding — if judgment vanished and you knew you’d be supported, where would your heart lead you?

Can you feel how this weaves straight into the Omen Days? How these energies invite you to close the year with intention, tenderness, and awareness — rather than rushing headlong into the next?

And yes, this is also where Personal Theme Readings come in.

I like to call them Opening the Doors to 2026. Rather than me waxing lyrical here (and testing your patience), you can wander over and see if one calls to you. Spaces are limited, so if you feel the nudge, listen.

Alright, beautiful one — that was a lot to receive, and I hope you felt it land rather than skim past.

Now… let’s crack on with the reading. ✨

Okay so when I asked my glorious giddy guides who they wanted to play with this week.  I was a tad surprised!  

Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to do so would be rude!)

At the edge of the mind awaits the holy wilderness of the soul.  

It beckons you, like a great forest filled with vast mysteries and wonders.  While this mystical realm exists in a higher dimension, beyond normal reality, it is real nevertheless.  To enter this mystical realm, it’s simply a matter of having an open heart and an open mind.  

In this healing and holy place, long-sought answers to your deepest questions become known.  Ancient wisdom emerges.  Revelations about your future are revealed.  Hidden talents and abilities are activated with you.  It’s a place where miracles unfold, and your spirit can fly. 

 In the deepest sense you remember who you are.  

Okay gorgeous bean, here we are with the holiday season rapidly approaching, and yet the place of Solstice.  The longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.  

The place of release and moving into the warm, feminine darkness that nurtures and supports.  I invite you to take a long, deep, luxurious breath in through the nose and out through the mouth.  Let your face relax, your jaw relax and the worries of the day drop to the floor like soft gentle rain drops or snowflakes. 

Then I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a glorious warm dark night sky, you feel safe, you feel supported and held and as the clouds pull away  you see stars that will guide you.  Breathe that in.  Allow this gorgeous Feminine Darkness to gently wrap around you and guide you and then when you are ready pick a card or cards that call to you.

You picked yes?

Shall we go see?

DAFFODIL FAIRY

New Beginnings

You feel a tap on your shoulder, and in a flash of yellow, you see a Daffodil Fairy fly by you.  In a high, sweet voice she says, “The best is yet to be!  It’s time for a new beginning!”  With glee, you race after her into the forest.

Life goes in cycles.  Just as spring follows winter, a new cycle is beginning in your life.  In the phases of the earth, the plants die in the fall so that there can be new birth in the spring – it’s the universal dance of death and rebirth.  There’s a time to end and begin, and this is the close of one cycle and the beginning of another.

We associate the daffodil with spring, as it is one of the first flowers to emerge after the snows.  Its shape echoes the feeling of trumpeting in the new season; its colour suggests vitality, radiance, and sunshine.  

It’s time to wipe the slate clean; it’s time to release the old and start again.

It can be difficult to release familiar routines, situations, or relationships when they no longer empower you; however, your higher self encourages you to not cling to the old, but set sail into new waters.  If you find yourself afraid to let go, you are urged to face your fear and allow yourself to stretch in a new direction.

The Creatrix is at your side, and wonderful opportunities will be born in your life.  Wholeness occurs when you can say yes to both endings and beginnings.

It’s time to start a new project or a new cycle.  Life force and vitality are emerging.  Release that which doesn’t serve and support you.  Make way for a new start!

FOGGY BOG

Patience

The fog in the forest is so dense, you can’t see your hands in front of your face.  You take a step forward; the soil is soft and spongy.  You realise that you are standing in a bog and to go forward is to risk sinking deeper into the mud.

The best strategy is to be still and wait for the fog to lift.

Be quiet and still.  The time is not right to go forward now.  

It’s hard to see what lies ahead, and the truth of things may not be as they initially appear.  Events that seem one way may, in fact, be completely different.

Just as the egret exhibits great patience as he waits for a fish to emerge, so too must you be still and allow the truth to emerge.  In this state of obscured visibility, your imagination can surge forward and spark your intuition.

If you can wait long enough, your sixth sense will be ignited.  Listen to your inner yearnings and pay attention to those seemingly random thoughts.  

Water represents emotions, feelings, and the subconscious.  When the water becomes condensed as fog, it obscures the true shape of things.  We can’t see clearly the way we can in the light.

Don’t allow unexamined emotions to overwhelm your growth.

Have patience.  Wait until the fog lifts before taking action.  The truth will emerge in time; you just need to go deeper.  

Follow your intuition.  

GUARDIANS OF THE LAND

Protection

“You are safe.”  These words seem to emerge from the land and radiate from the trees to echo in your soul.  You hear these words again and again.  

The Sacred Guardians of the Land are whispering to you, “You are safe.”  

You know that you are protected and cared for.  You can feel tendrils of their loving energy wrap around you and embrace you.  Their unleashed power cocoons you in safety.

You are enough, just as you are.  No matter what has happened or occurred in the past, the truth is that you are absolutely and unconditionally enough as you are.

You are loved.  You are cherished.  

Do not be concerned about outside forces and the judgements and expectations of others.  You are protected in your own energy field.  Envision a protective shield around yourself and around your home.  Spend time with people and in situations that uplift your energy rather than draining it.

You are safe and surrounded by a glorious protective shield.  You are not alone; your life is guided and protected by higher forces.

Within this knowing-ness you can soar to great heights.  Breathe wee one.  Trust.  

Oh my giddy aunt!  Those glorious beasts were delicious.  How did they resonate for you? 

So darling one, wishing you a week of ease, grace and flow.  Don’t get tangled in any one else’s stuff, tinsel or lights.  If it resonates for you to come join Omen Days – please do.  If  you want to find out your Personal Theme, please do.  If you just want to be left the fuck alone and celebrate Solstice as you like – grab the Winter Solstice book.

See you next week.

What Does Peace Mean as We Spiral Toward Solstice?

· ·

Gorgeous Soul,

How are you, truly? How did that Gemini Full Moon land in your body and your bones?

We’ve just moved through a windswept lunar peak — a dispersing, airy brightness that asked us to pause, listen, and gather ourselves before the final descent into the dark. We’re now in the waning half of the lunar cycle and the waning arc of the solar year, and both luminaries are whispering the same thing:
A long, slow exhale.

A softening into sacred wintering.

And this — this Sacred Wintering — is exactly why we walk the path of the Omen Days. Many of you have been eagerly asking about it, and I had hoped to release everything today. But with two sick adults and a sick toddler in my care, the universe had other plans.

So here’s the update:
The full Omen Days teaching, the signup page, and all you need to know will be arriving mid-week.

And alongside it?
The glorious Book of Winter — fondly known as Soul Season — will also be released.
She is rich, magical, layered, and ready to hold you through this deep and luminous time of year.

Quite a few of you reached out over the last week saying you felt scattered, overwhelmed, or completely “out of sorts.” A few even used the word “fucked”—and honestly, I felt that too. My own energy ricocheted from panic to anger to anxiety to “everyone leave me alone” to “wait, maybe don’t leave me entirely alone.” It was bizarre, disorienting, and very Mercury-meets-Gemini-in-the-dark-season coded.

Then, on the night of the Full Moon, I did the forgiveness ritual from Soul Season, and the peace that came flooding in was divine. Nourishing. Resetting.

The kind of peace that feels like your soul finally unclenches.

Which got me thinking about Peace itself. Not the fluffy, surface-level version, but the real, embodied, sensory experience. There’s a beautiful children’s book by Vladimir Radunsky where kids from around the world describe what peace feels like. Their answers are everything:

What does peace smell like?
Peace smells like a bouquet of flowers in a happy family’s living room, or pizza fresh from the oven.

What does peace look like?
It looks like a cat and a dog curled up together, or the soft glow of newborn babies.

What does peace sound like?
It sounds like a silent day. Raindrops falling. No bad words.

What does peace taste like?
It tastes like vanilla ice cream… or your favourite food times two.

What does peace feel like?
It feels like the hug you get when you cry. Someone stroking your back. A tiny shiver, but the good kind.

Kids tell the truth adults forget.

Seasonally, this past week aligned with the lighting of the Advent candle of Peace — connected to the plant realm: the roots, the stems, the leaves, the quiet green life that nourishes and heals us. I love this reminder: Peace is not theoretical. It’s embodied. It grows.

And of course, this all leads us directly toward Winter Solstice — my beloved threshold of the year. Solstice is that exquisite moment when the old cycle exhales and the new one inhales. I can feel it weeks ahead, humming under everything, asking us to reflect, to return inward, to listen.

This is the season that naturally brings forward the big questions:
Am I showing up the way I’m called to? Am I living the life that wants to live through me?

As Autumn falls away and Winter rises, we enter the realm of descent — emotion returning to form, water returning to earth, light sinking lower and lower. It’s the most inward, yin part of the year, even though our outer world demands noise, speed, and performance.

But your body knows better. It wants to rest. To replenish. To create slowly. To imagine softly. To hold Peace and Hope like warm stones in your pockets as you walk deeper into the dark.

So let me ask again, from the heart of this seasonal turning:
What does Peace mean to you?
And how can you carry it with you into Solstice?

Okay, with all that being said (sometimes I do chunter on!), let’s crack on with the reading. 

Okay gorgeous one, settle into your body, breathe yourself back.  As you gently slow down your breathing I invite you to bring up the sensation of Peace (whatever that means to you) and allow it to swirl in your mind’s eye.  If you need a bit more support with Peace there’s a lovely little guided visualisation for you.  Then, when you’re ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to go see?

BATH KOL

Eschew complicated explanations, as you seek the simplicity of the deepest truth of your heart.  Gently but firmly cast aside that which does not resonate as being true for your heart.  Focus upon, and speak from, a higher spiritual perspective.  All prayers are answered at the perfect time and in the perfect way.  You have a powerful voice, which can foster healing wisdom on our planet.

Bath Kol is a mysterious creature.  She is an angel known as the divine oracle, the daughter of the divine voice, the pure and true sound of spirit.  When she whispers to your heart, you feel it as an inner knowing, a truth.  To honour that inner knowing likely requires the confrontation of fear or moving in unexpected directions. 

Even so, the deep resonance of her truth is more powerful than the resistance we may initially feel as we let go of our limited perspectives and allow ourselves to be guided by Spirit.

Often an inner spiritual call requires a leap of faith.  A more authentic, awakened you is coming to life.  Paving the way for the higher self to manifest typically means that fear and control based approaches need to be surrendered.  Honouring Bath Kols guidance requires courage but brings rich reward on many levels.  

Acknowledge your true voice.  This may be the voice in your own heart which needs to be heard without judgement or censorship.  It may be an intuitive inner knowing to be recognised.  It may be a loving and helpful voice of a reliable guide or friend whom you know can be trusted.  It may be a teaching from a dream or an insight from a meditation, or even an inkling that certain happenings or sightings are signs from the Universe to help you on your life path.  

Practise your power of discernment.  Filter ego from heart.  If a point of view lowers your vibration, makes you feel negatively about yourself or another, increases your confusion or makes matters seem more complicated, it is likely to be an ego-driven viewpoint.  To consider what you might be able to learn from that viewpoint, you need to settle yourself on more authentic spiritual ground.  

DVARA PATRA

Out of confusion, a clear and progressive pathway is opening up for you.  It is an auspicious time to give generously of yourself to others, enriching the quality of your connections, expressing spiritual blessings of goodwill and encouragement from your heart.  A powerful blessing is entering your world.  A prayer is now being answered in a  beautiful way.  Spirit gives freely and generously of all the goods things, and the task of humanity is to learn how to receive.  The key to receiving is an open, surrendered, generous and trusting heart.  

The Holy Grail is the sacred chalice.  It is a powerful, living, regenerative and deeply healing symbol of hope and blessing.  It will interact with each soul in its own way.  For your soul, that may involve a recognition that the light is always seeking you, wanting to fill and heal and bless and protect you, to initiate you into awareness of the realms of light, beauty and divine presence.  

It may remind your heart to receive, that you are capable of being a channel for goodness, grace, abundance and pure light.  It may be recognised as a sign of a future blessing, of something truly desired finally coming to pass.  

The sacred grail is hope; it is a blessing.  It is both a  portent of fulfilment and the inner means by which we connect with the loving language of light and truly receive.  In Sanskrit, patra means ‘goblet’ or ‘vessel.’  In learning how to receive, we also learn how to be received, how to be fully beheld, which is an expression of unconditional love.  The sacred chalice reminds us of our potential to hold, but also for the generosity of the Universe in providing for us so we, too, can be held and receive all we need.

Dvara is Sanskrit for a pathway, an opening or portal, a doorway or even a means or method.  Your deepest fulfilment is via the receptive faculty of the sacred feminine.  The feminine way is organic, creative, responsive, spontaneous and effective.  It is not constrained by our human perceptions of what is or is not possible. 

To honour and empower the sacred feminine genius in our lives requires a considerable shift away from mainstream, conditioning and into spiritual surrender.  Allowing her method, rather than blocking her loving creativity in our lives, entails the movement from head to heart.

As  you invert your priorities from ego to soul, you’ll invert your locus of orientation from head to heart, from outer to inner reality.  You will trust what your heart knows, whether or not it makes sense to your logical mind – or to anyone else’s for that matter.  

YOGINI OF 285 Hz

Changes in your life, including closing doors or missed opportunities are not going to derail your fulfilment.  Realignments are happening based on divine wisdom and timing.  You are being diverted from unnecessary obstacles and suffering.  Trust in how your life path is unfolding.  Stay true to your authentic healing journey, because it is working, whether you realise that or not.  Significant inner healing is taking place.

In numerous spiritual traditions of the East, such as those from Nepal, Tibet and India , the yogini is a female spiritual adept, a practitioner of deep yoga that awakens a powerful connection with one’s real inner being.  The yogini holds space for healing and enlightenment, moving through obstacles and challenges with wisdom, patience, commitment and often great joy. 

She is our spiritual sister, our sacred friend and our guide away from the bleak, erroneous thinking of ego into the softened, awakened, relaxed, gracious way of Spirit.  

My darling you are on a powerful healing journey to connect body, mind and soul with the truth of your spiritual nature.  You are working at an inner level to let go of past pains and open up to your empowerment and grace, dignity and legitimacy in the present moment.  There is a spiritual approach to heal any and all struggles in your life.

If you feel disoriented or conflicted about a choice, trust that this chaos is a consequence of a cosmic realignment with your life path.  Move through it with trust in your heart, patience and a willingness to keep the faith, knowing you will eventually find your way.  The adjustments taking place within you will affect your outer world. 

Just like the tumultuous alchemical journey of the caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, your inner transformation shall shape you and your world into the beautiful, inspired, and authentic form it is meant to be.  

And stay tuned, Gorgeous Soul — this mid-week brings the unveiling of Omen Days, the signup page, and your invitation into the radiant practice of winter divination.

Plus the release of Soul Season — the Book of Winter that has been waiting so patiently to meet you.

Let’s walk this descent with intention.
Let’s make it sacred.

Wishing you a glorious week of Peace my darling. Take a nice long slow deep breath!

When the World Screams “Buy!”… I Choose Blessed and Unbothered.

· ·


Gorgeous Soul,

December stepped in this morning with its quiet frost and instinctive hush, yet everywhere I turn, I’m met with a blizzard of flashing ads, shrill notifications, glossy promotions, and digital cajoling. Black Friday. Cyber Monday. Limited Offer. Last Chance.

The whole spectacle feels like an overcaffeinated carnival shouting into the marrow of my bones. I value prudence with money — of course — but this frantic devotion to “stuff-for-the-sake-of-stuff” makes my spirit recoil.

The clangour, the manufactured urgency, the relentless chorus of Buy now, buy fast, buy more — set against the trembling state of the world — feels entirely counter to the soul of this season.

You feel it too, don’t you?

That subtle trembling of your nervous system whispering, enough — enough scrolling, enough grasping, enough noise.

In these past weeks, I found myself caught in the undertow of “shoulds.” The invisible insistence to acquire, prepare, produce, impress. It felt like standing in a wind tunnel of expectations that were never mine to begin with.

Thus, through our family’s “birthday season” — that lively stretch from September to now — I decided to refuse the rote ritual of obligatory gifts. Instead, we crafted experiences together. One for each of the horde.

A dazzling West End London show — When God Was a Scottish Drag Queen — that left us breathless with laughter.
A decadent spa afternoon where we soaked our feet while seals tumbled through silvered waves.
A wildfire-fun improv night with two SNL greats that left us gasping.
A pottery session where clay-flecked hands shaped mugs and memories.
And this weekend — a family Celtic knot tattoo, ink looping our stories into skin.

This, to me, is the marrow of the season — a call toward slowness, toward gentleness, toward presence.

Yet everywhere around us the world hollers, “Hurry!”

With Winter Solstice drifting near, we stand at the cusp of the year’s deepest darkness — a liminal passage asking us to rest, rekindle our inner ember, and reacquaint ourselves with the softer rooms of our own being.

But here’s the quiet truth: most of us were never taught how to do that.

We were conditioned to barrel through winter. To dismiss the fatigue. To keep producing, performing, persevering. To pretend we’re fine even when our inner world is begging for a moment of stillness.

But our spirits yearn for something else — something tender, unhurried, unadorned.

Which is why Omen Days will return this year. (More on that next week.) The Omen Days offer a gentle, deep, restorative way for closing the year with grace, intention, and a glimpse into what 2026 is weaving.

And yes — I’ll be hosting a Solstice gathering to help us cross the threshold of the longest night with reverence and warmth.

On December 4th, we welcome the luminous Cold Moon.

This moon arrives like a lantern in the frost — aligned with Yuletide, humming with old magic.

Its teaching is ancient: rest, renewal, the quiet promise of beginnings wrapped inside endings. It marks the culmination of our journey around the sun, encouraging us to pause, to breathe, to soften.

It may feel counterintuitive to slow down when the world is screaming for speed, but remember: your worth has never lived inside your productivity.

Let the Cold Moon be your invitation to hibernate a little — to occupy your moments with presence, delight, and the small things that make your heart glow.

This is a season thick with transformation, inner excavation, and the sacred alchemy of becoming. A time to recharge, reconnect, and return to yourself and the ones you love.

Do you see how beautifully it all interlaces?

You are not separate from the seasons.

You are the season — unfolding, deepening, shifting — just as nature does.

So I am so tickled to see new guides wanting to come and chat with you this week.  These gorgeous guides invite you to find out  –What your soul wants you to know.

Okay my darling one, take a breath.  Envision you are standing out in the dark, the brisk cold wind hits your cheeks and you light a candle.  The flame flickers and dances with the night sky behind it.  As you gaze at the flame, take a breath and allow yourself to rest and relax.  Listen to the whispers of your Soul.

Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that make your Soul tickle.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s see what your Soul wants to share with you……

SIMPLICITY

Do what matters; and release the rest to find peace, grace and stillness.  

Clear all the internal and external clutter!

Your soul wants you to know, one of the fastest ways to align with the tranquil vibration of the Creator/Creatrix/Divine – whatever name you use – is through simplicity.

A busy life and the accumulation of more than you need creates static; it can be difficult to hear the voice of Spirit when there’s mental chaos in your life.

Create time to rest and rejuvenate.  Clear the clutter in your home, the files in your computer, and the drawers at work.  (And I can see you rolling your eyes!)

Even a small amount of this cleansing can make an immense difference.

Create a feeling of simplicity, and know the grace of the Divine.

Repeat to yourself:  Deep, Profound Serenity is Expanding in My Life.  

PASSION

Follow your bliss!  (Yeah I know you have heard that before, but……. It’s true).

Discover what you absolutely love to do or be, and then, like an arrow directed at its target, don’t let anything stop you from fulfilling your passion!

Your soul wants you to know – If you’re having difficulty discovering what you’re passionate about, go back into your childhood and remember what gave you joy then.

If you loved to dance as a child, sign up for a movement class.  Better yet, put on music and dance your soxs off in the living room to your Soul’s delight.  

If you adored crayons, pull out those colours and splash their bright hues from one side of the page to the other.

If you enjoyed observing insects in your backyard, maybe sign up for a nature study course.

Once you are clear on what you are passionate about, do whatever it takes to follow that – don’t wait until it’s too late.

Many people declare that they will follow their bliss when they retire or have extra time, and consequently they never experience the absolute exuberance of life.

If not now when?  Live your life with passion! What are you waiting for?

Repeat to yourself:  I passionately accept and love myself!

SILENCE

Can you be still and take the time to move into the silent place within yourself?  That place which is your internal power source?


Your soul wants you to know – The world is super loud and often at the end of the day you flop into bed with all sorts swimming in your head.  In silence you’ll find your sacred witness.  It’s the dwelling place of your Soul.  

Your Spirit loves the truth, and in peace you can seek and discover your truth.

If you are in pain, go into it until you find the source so it can be healed. Move past the bustle and chatter of life into sweet quietude, and surrender to stillness.  Resist the temptation to indulge in feelings of overwhelm, urgency, and emergency.

Your power is born in silence.

Seek solitude to listen to the voice of  your higher self and awaken your inner wisdom; this peace gives birth to your serenity.

Repeat to yourself – I am Serene, No Matter what is occurring around me.

Gorgeous one, allow yourself to move a bit more gently with yourself.  Keep your eyes peeled for The Omen Days, you will love it and the Solstice gathering.  Sending you massive hugs and warm soxs and tea!

Tenderly Fierce: A Thanksgiving Reflection for Your Whole, Glorious Self.

· ·

Gorgeous Soul,

How was your New Moon?

And yes — for those of you watching the sky and the calendar (I’m looking at you, Alice!) — Mercury Retrograde truly does end on November 25th. Yes. It ends.

We can all exhale. ✨

To all my beautiful American friends: Happy Thanksgiving!

I must confess… it still feels a bit curious to have Thanksgiving nestled so close to Christmas, but honestly? I’ll celebrate anything worth celebrating. And I find most things — if you look closely — are worth celebrating.

Winter Solstice, Summer Solstice, Equinoxes, New Moons, Full Moons, Chinese New Year, Easter, Valentine’s…
The first flower after a long grey winter.
The soft sigh of snow.
A ray of sun breaking through the clouds.
Even the simple pleasure of fresh blossoms on my desk on a rain-drenched morning.

For me, life hums with reasons to say thank you.

And I’ve learned to honour those nudges, those small invitations, those whispers of delight.

But as the holiday season edges toward us — glittering, noisy, complicated — expectations can rise like a tide. Comparison shows up uninvited. Old patterns tap us on the shoulder. And we can find ourselves stretched thin in a dozen directions.

Which reminds me I want to share a funny story (which does tie in with all of this).

If you remember, last week I sent out a post about the New Moon in Scorpio, Mercury Retrograde & the Power of the Dark Moon.

There was a lot of information in that post, so to try and make it succinct there were parts that were bullet points (made sense to me). Yet I received a few comments or judgements saying “You use AI. You have lost your soul.”

Wow! Okay, I have been doing these readings for over 14 years, and I write all the content and my glorious Spiritual Posse picks the cards and guides the whole shenanigans!

So instead of taking it personally I reminded myself – I have healthy boundaries and I have fully claimed all the pieces of me.

So let me ask you something gently, honestly:

Do you give yourself permission to hold healthy boundaries… to speak your truth with compassion… to tend to your own inner hearth?

And if you don’t — why not?

This past week I’ve had heartfelt conversations with people who are luminous, wise, and wholehearted — and yet their boundaries are quietly overrun by family, friends, partners, colleagues.

And their beautiful hearts absorb the aftermath: overwhelm, resentment, regret, the ache of feeling unseen.

As I listened, I kept returning to a phrase that has been walking beside me for months:

Tenderly Fierce.

That sacred place where your heart stays open — tender, vulnerable, receptive —
while you fiercely honour your boundaries, your truth, your energy, your sacred yes and your sacred no.

It is softness with sovereignty. Compassion with clarity. Love with edges.

Yes. Yes. YES.

Now, you may be thinking: “Jenn… boundaries? During the holidays?”

Oh, sweetheart — especially during the holidays.

Boundaries are not walls.
They are invitations into right relationship — with others, yes, but also with yourself.
When we don’t honour them, we lose our centre.
We leak energy.
We silence our needs.
We abandon ourselves.

And you deserve better than that.

You deserve to hear your own voice — clearly, kindly, courageously — whether you’re naming your limits, expressing gratitude, speaking your truth, acknowledging your pain, or choosing rest when everything around you clamours for more.

There was a time when I wasn’t embracing all the parts of me either. I tucked away the messy ones, the uncertain ones, the ones I judged.

But ritual, reframe, mindset, and magick pulled me gently back. Piece by piece, I’ve been sewing my whole self together. And oh… it feels like coming home.

We are all mosaics — light and shadow, brave and scared, fierce and tender, grounded and fragile.

Every piece belongs.

As Brené Brown so beautifully reminds us:

“The irony is that we attempt to disown our difficult stories to appear more whole or more acceptable, but our wholeness — even our wholeheartedness — depends on the integration of all our experiences, including the falls.”

So here is my invitation to you, wherever you are in the world:

Give thanks for every piece of yourself.
Even the ones you hide.
Even the ones you judge.
They are your medicine — your wisdom — your story.

Then, with a full breath, call into your mind all the people, moments, and miracles you’re grateful for — past, present, and those shimmering in the future.
One by one, let them arise.
Smile at each.
And blow them a kiss.

Imagine that kiss becoming a golden butterfly that drifts toward that person, memory, or part of yourself — landing softly on their cheek with your blessing, your love, your acknowledgement.

That’s the kind of gentle magick this season asks of us.

Now enough chuntering from me, let’s crack on with the reading.   When I went to the cards to ask who would like to be present this week it made my heart smile to see who showed up.  The amazing Faery Blessing guides were most adamant.  As after all, who doesn’t need a Blessing?

So gorgeous one take a breath.  Just a normal breath and then as you carry on breathing allow it to slow down.  Breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth. 

Allow in your mind’s eye a rising of your gorgeous heart,  your voice and a beautiful circle of silver light around them.  Allow this silver light to grow stronger, with you in the center and let that space be filled with all the things you are thankful for.   Let the silver circle become a delicious healthy boundary.  

As you breathe just let it swirl, you don’t have to control it.  

Then with this energy pick the card or cards that call to you.  What Blessing is for you this week?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what Blessing you picked, yes?

A BLESSING ON THE HEART’S CALLING

The Faery Gift of Living from the Truest and Most Pure Call of the Heart

For faeries, what the heart wants, in its purest form, is the right thing to desire.  But for humans, we have long practiced smothering the heart with the voice of reason, most often not our own voice, but the voices of others, of cultures and governments and of groups of people who fear nothing so much as hearing the heart’s deep call.  And so, with this gift of the faery comes the gift of hearing again the heart’s deep call and having the courage and commitment to follow it, no matter where it may take us. 

The heart’s deep call will never drive us to a destructive relationship or a  hurtful scenario.  It is not going to sacrifice our spirit to the making of money or the stifling of creativity.  The heart’s deep call, the true call, is beyond this, and will only take us in the direction of the dreams we are meant to fulfil this lifetime.

The faeries can now, with this gift, slowly lift the mist that covers the shining heart within you and open you up to that deep listening to your own self, and help you to value the song of the heart that has been singing to you since before you were born.  For the faeries have heard the song of your heart, and have wondered at the difference between its call and the life you have lived thus far. 

With this gift, your life will move more into accord with the heart, and you will begin to live from that deep, true place – with integrity, with fulfilment, without foolishness or following another, for your own heart will guide you and never ask you to sacrifice yourself to the creation of the dream of another. 

The faery’s gift is of the heart’s deep call to you, friend.  May its song bring you every blessing.  

A BLESSING OF THE LIMINAL SPACE

The Faery gift of Gateways, Sacred Sites, Enchanted Times.

Dear Faery Friend, you have reached a great moment, the point where you can receive the blessing of the liminal space and time.  The gateway, the moment, the choice is here.  Let the liminal, the in-between, become more and more apparent to you. 

May the blessings of the sunrises, with their dawn colours and sweet beginnings, be yours.  And may the sunsets, with their richness and splendour and their message of coming rest be yours, too.  May the in-between spaces, the places where the faeries can reach you so easily, and where you can discover your own inner magick be yours.

To be blessed with the liminal is to be blessed with the deeper magick of the natural world, to have the ability to step outside of human rush and stress and worry and deeply experience the quiet spaces within nature that are so often offered, yet o rarely accepted.

Find yourself within the sacred grove, with the old, wise trees; find the space between the worlds and walk a while with the guides and faery kin who love  you and wish to be of assistance to you.

Find your way into the magick of your own life and soul, and leave behind the push and stress that strips the world of its magick.  May your intuition flow easily and accurately, may there be a sense of deep peace and trust with the world, and may you know that there is an abundant well of magick and faery wisdom awaiting you, every day, every hour, within these sacred spaces and places.  

Find the space in between, find the magick that dwells within, find the faery circle in the field, and let yourself be blessed again and again with the blessings of the enchanted ones, the sacred spaces that lie all about us.  

THE BLESSING OF THE MOTHERS

The Faery Gift of a Time of Unexpected Gifts and Wonderful Synchronicities.

When this blessing comes to  you friend, you receive the blessing of the Mother, the ancient faery being of the land known today as Wales.  With this blessing comes recognition for your own kindness and generosity, and so now you will find yourself blessed with the unexpected gift. 

The old tales tell us that the Mother will reward those who are kind and caring, especially those who care for the land and for the animals.  And so to you they are sending a boon – a gift of treasure found in a hidden place, a warm cloak on a cold day offered by a stranger, money readily coming to you in strange and lovely ways, and ease of suffering in an area you thought had no hope.

The blessings of the Mothers are unpredictable, as they will see your own life and what they will bring to you is what your soul most needs to feel solace and blessings.  If you have felt like there has been a run of “bad luck”, this will now lift and transform into an effortless flow of all that is good. 

Every small kindness you have offered others will now flow back to you.  And in mysterious ways, you will see how what was once done of simple goodness is now returning to you, threefold.

For the faeries see you, know you, and acknowledge your heart, and the Mothers are now with you, to bring you the bendith y mamau – the gifts of the Mothers – so when they appear, give thanks, and know that nothing goes forgotten and unseen in the realm of the enchanted ones.  

Blessings, and may the gifts of the Mother bring you comfort and goodness, friend.  

Oh how deliciously perfect for this moment in time!  So gorgeous bean, I wish for you a most glorious week. Use your voice, practice your boundaries and know that you are sooooo worth it. Happy Thanksgiving!  Sending you huge hugs and squeezes.  See you next week.  

A Week of Remembering, Realigning, and Reawakening Hope.

· ·

Hello gorgeous soul,

Settle in with a warm cup of tea or coffee and take a breath. This week brings us into a powerful convergence of energies—Mercury Retrograde, Remembrance Day, and the 11:11 manifestation portal.

It’s a time of reflection, remembering, and conscious intention.

Let’s walk through it together.

Mercury Retrograde (Beginning November 9)

Mercury Retrograde often gets a dramatic reputation, but in truth, it is a deeply supportive astrological phase—if we work with it instead of resisting it.

Think of Mercury Retrograde as a sacred pause.
A chance to realign.

Mercury Retrograde =
Revised
Redefined
Reconsidered
Reclaimed

This is an ideal time to:

  • Listen to your intuition, not the noise around you
  • Pay attention to dreams and symbols
  • Reconnect with people from your past who truly matter
  • Return to unfinished projects and bring them to completion
  • Feel into what is true for you now—not what used to be
  • Come home to what is important

Retrograde is not here to disrupt. It is here to guide us back to ourselves.

Remembrance Day – November 11

Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, marks the end of World War I—at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Every year, we hear the phrase: “Lest We Forget.”

But what are we remembering?

Not just history. Not just battles.

But humanity. Sacrifice. Courage. The cost of peace.

As a woman who has:

  • Served in the military reserves,
  • Served as a reserve police officer,
  • Been raised by and walked alongside those who served,

I hold this day with deep respect.

I have never known war on my doorstep.
I have never feared for the safety of my family as the world crumbled outside.
I know I am blessed.

The poppy, for me, is a symbol of:

  • Honour for those who served
  • Love for those who are still away from home
  • And hope—a hope for peace that is still possible

Even when the world feels heavy, we can choose to remember the human longing for peace and the power of collective empathy.

11:11 – A Portal of Manifestation & Alignment

Remembrance Day also holds the 1111 energy—an angelic and astrological activation.

11 is a master number.
1111 is a doorway.

This energy heightens:

  • Intuition
  • Manifestation
  • Synchronicity
  • Alignment with your soul path

It’s why people say to make a wish at 11:11. It’s not superstition—it’s resonance.

Close your eyes and remember the last time that you set an intention.

Did you feel doubtful that your wish would come true, or did you have faith that the universe was listening, ready to help you bring your vision to life? 

This day invites you to set intentions clearly and with faith.

Another simple way to harness this energy is to free flow and write for 11 minutes about all your heart’s desires and intentions.  At the end of the 11 minutes, go back and highlight the words that inspire you, make you feel hopeful, excited and then formulate them into an intention.

If you wanted to go a step further you could make a sacred Sigil!

As I tuned in for this week, I asked, “What is the most important message for us to receive right now?” And the guidance came through clearly, softly, lovingly:

This is a time of remembering your own inner wisdom.

You are not separate from Source.
You are never alone in your growth, your healing, your longing, or your becoming.

Your guides are asking you to slow down long enough to hear your own soul speaking.

So holding that in your heart and soul, take a deep breath and breathe in Hope.

If you need a bit more support there is a wee guided visualisation for you.  

Did you remember to pick?

Come have a look.

FLOW

A meandering river is a waterway that curves, bends, turns, and seems to swing side to side as it flows forward.  Viewed from above it looks sinuous and even snakelike.  Meandering rivers are dynamic as they wind their way across valley floors and bring life-giving sediment to new habitats.

The word meander was derived from the ancient Meander River, which flows into the Aegean Sea.  The Greeks created symbols for “meander” that have been described as some of the most important symbols for ancient Greek culture; they represented the fluid movement of water and the eternal flow of all life. 

The twisting patterns were also thought to represent the serpent which was the symbol of healing, hence our present day symbol for doctors is the caduceus.

What does this sacred landscape want you to know?

There are times to hold on tight to the shore, and there are times to enter the flow.  Notice where life is going and move in that direction,  Watch for signs and follow them.  Don’t resist.

When you go with the flow, your life-force expands and healing on all levels abounds.  

This is also the time to release old, limiting patterns, forgive, and let go of the need to be right about your beliefs.  If you aren’t feeling the smooth currents of life, it might mean that you’re being self-critical and judgmental.  

When you enter the flow with gratitude and love, you will find blessings surrounding you.  You will enter into a state of grace, and healing will abound.  

ENLIGHTENMENT

Our beautiful home galaxy is so large that if you traveled at the speed of light, it would take you 100,000 years to go from one end to the other. (It is small compared to some galaxies – for example, the Hercules A galaxy would take 1.5 million years to cross at the speed of light.)

The realm of galaxies is so vast and so wide that it is beyond human comprehension, which is why the galaxy often symbolises great enlightenment as well a faith in the forces much greater than us.

So what does this sacred landscape want you to know?

Enlightenment occurs when one steps out of the confines of an ordinary definition of self and expands into a greater awareness of the self within the Universe.  You are now reaching into the invisible realm of Spirit and connecting with what  you cannot see.  Forces beneath the surface are supporting you on your journey.  

Have FAITH in yourself!  You are so much more than you believe yourself to be. Have patience that there is a plan unfolding.  The sky’s the limit!  You are entering into a time of expansive transformation in a luminous and remarkable way.  

Trust that the changes ahead are for the greater good, for most certainly they are.  And if you ever doubt, step outside and let the stars remind you!

SECURITY

In ancient times, our forebears took refuge in caves.  It was there that they could seek shelter from the weather and be protected from predators and enemies.  The cave offered a safe place to prepare food, sleep, heal, and build community.

Caves were also the places where sacred spiritual ceremonies occurred, evidenced by cave drawings and altars that had been built along the ledges.  Symbolically, caves often represented a secret pathway to the underworld, the divine womb of Mother Earth, and the sacred heart.  Also, caves can be energy portals for shamans or other spiritual explorers.  

What does this Sacred Landscape have to share with you?

You are safe and protected.  No matter what is occurring in your life, you are in safe hands.  Those in the realm of Spirit are watching over you.  You can relax and let go.

Once you’ve taken measures to protect  yourself and those you love – such as making sure everyone has their seat belt on in the car, making  sure your insurance is paid on time, or replacing the filter on your heating unit – then let it go!

If you have been hypervigilant lately, take a break.  Relax; know that all is well  You can turn it all over to the Creator.  And when you forget, breathe into the warm, welcoming cave that is held in your heart!

Wowzer, what glorious messages for this week.  How did yours resonate for you?  So gorgeous one, I wish for you a wonderful week filled with Hope, Flow, Enlightenment and Ease.   Big hugs and squeezes!  (And Remember to Remember).
