Ancestral Sense, Awareness, New Moon In Taurus

Happy Miraculous, Magnificent, Marvelous, Magickal, Mellow, Merry, Manifesting May Monday! Yes it is the first Monday of May – Whoot! Whoot! I have been in awe as to all the glorious flowers that are in bloom and burgeoning.

The other night I was walking the puppers and as I rounded a corner I was thrown back to when I was 9 years old! (Not literally, there was no Tardis around), but by a smell! Wowzer, the heady smell of lilacs was thick on the evening breeze and it took me back to my Dad, I could see him walking in with the most massive bouquet of lilacs he had picked for my Mum and they would be placed in a myriad of vases throughout the house and the smell would waft through everything.

Smell is such an evocative thing and lately I have been playing with what I call Ancestral Sense. Okay, so what does that mean? Think about the scents and smells from your lineage, your ancestors, your aunts – whomever it is for you, the scents that the minute you smell them you feel safe, supported, wrapped up in a big hug of love. For me those scents are ones like Rose, Lavender, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, Verbena, Violet and most certainly Lilac. The are what I refer to as “Old Scents/Sense”, they aren’t the common smells that we have now, but the minute I smell them it reminds me of my Great Aunts and throws me back in time to the front parlour, the kitchen, walking in the woods and I can hear the practical wisdom they would share with me at that moment in time.

My Great Aunts and Gran were all amazing, strong, clear Yorkshire women and when I went to stay with my most favourite one of all, my Great Aunt Ciss, all the drawers in my dresser were lined with drawer paper that wafted Lily of the Valley through my knickers and smalls. My Gran used to have little sachets of jasmine, rose and lavender hanging in the closets so I could always guarantee that my jumpers would smell the same. My Great Aunt Barb always had Verbena soap in the bathroom, so whenever I was told to wash my hands it would be with Verbena. When the Lilacs were in bloom my most amazing Dad would always bring home a huge bunch for my Mum as she loved the scent and it would fill the house. In fact when my mothership turned 80 the kids and I were wondering what to gift her for her birthday, so we gifted her a photo of lilacs. Now hang on, this wasn’t like any other lilac photo you have ever seen!! All the boys got naked and there is a glorious photo of them all standing, with backs facing the camera in the middle of a bed of flowers – buck naked. Then the next photo is them all facing the camera, buck naked, with huge bouquets of lilacs covering their bits and grinning like Cheshire Cats! (No one said we were a “conventional” family lol). Last but not least the smell of Lavender reminds me of my big sister. When I was in my late teens I started having anxiety and panic attacks and she would gently rest my head in her lap and slowly and tenderly stroke my nose and temples with her finger that had lavender oil on it until I settled and my breathe was calm. So along with the feelings the smells evoke are also the words that I hear when I smell them. The words of encouragement, love, support and tenderness.

So what smells take you somewhere that represents safety, security, love and the minute you smell them your shoulders drop and your breathe eases?

Because I will tell you, when you figure that out, when you figure out the smells that can literally drop you to your knees in a positive way, make sure you have them and when you are bent out of shape or a tad fed up with the world, breathe out and then deeply breathe them in and feel that sense of love.

So not only has May brought so many glorious flowers and smells to life, but a new energy as well. The energy of May has changed and are you ready to play a bigger game? Let me share what Lena has to say:-

The theme for May is Awareness (remember that April was Truth, Choice and Action)? “ In continuing the themes of truth, choice and action from the month of April, we move them forward into the higher vibration of Awareness. This is the next step for us and it involves becoming more present and responsible for our truth, choices and actions. A less intense month than April action-wise, the month of May will give all of us an opportunity to reflect, go inward, and take a good inventory of who we are, where we are, who we are with, what we are doing, where we are living, how we are supported (or not), what needs to change and what our next steps are.

All of this requires Awareness. You can no longer sweep your patterns, bad habits, pain, wounds, fears, and ego driven attitudes and behaviors under the rug and hope they will someday just go away or be fixed by someone else. Now is the time to become Aware and Awake so you can step into your life with more presence, more power and greater purpose. “

So true! Without the Awareness or at least the Willingness to look at things and really take a good personal inventory, we will inevitably keep repeating habits or patterns that no longer serve us. I for one say “Let that shit go!”

We had the glorious New Moon in Taurus on Saturday and I have had quite a few of you email asking if the energy is only for that one day or can you still tap into it. Good question. The New Moon sets the energy for the month, the most powerful time for New Moon intentions is within 5 days of the New Moon. The closer to the New Moon, the more powerful. Yes?

Okay let’s get on with the reading.

This week it was interesting to see that the glorious “Wild Kuan Yin Oracle” was most adamant. Now if you have never met this deck and guides, please let me introduce you.

“This deck is dedicated to the wild ones – those with a spirit that longs to be free and heart that must love with great passion – who year to bring beautiful visions to life. May you always trust the divine wild child within you, for you are one of the new humanity awakening, ensuring that life upon this planet flourishes with love, kindness and radical optimism. May the guidance, blessings and enlightenment of Wild Kuan Yin touch your heart and heal the world. “

We are going to try a little experiment – I’m not going to tell you what the crystals are this week, instead, I invite you to just soften your gaze as you look at them and then pick the ones that call to you.

Okay, just settle for a moment, it doesn’t have to be long – your safe, it’s okay. Breathe, breathe into the corners of your belly and down to your toes and let them wiggle. Let your shoulders nestle down your spine and feel your jaw relax as you breathe long and deep, in through your nose and out through your mouth. As you breathe in through your nose, invite in the smell that makes you feel seen, safe, secure, valued and oh so loved. As you breathe out let go of the tightness and the blaugh.

Invite in those moments of peace, security and love and as they come to you, ask them to help you pick the card or cards you need for this glorious week.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a peek?

PRIESTESS OF PERFECT PAIRING MAKES THE MATCH

I see the true nature of all beings and bring to them their perfect match, so that the journey of love may be experienced. Some pairings shall help in matters of the heart, others in the ways of the world. Some shall journey together for a brief time, others are destined for deepest union to experience the oneness of love. I shall grant the perfect match, according to grace and compassion.

Every yin, needs its yang. Every yearning for another is also a yearning for wholeness, for completion. A relationship is sacred in that it allows two beings to grow, to experience love in new ways. A healthy relationship allows for the growth of each individual within it. It allows you to enjoy the things you have in common and the differences that create friction and generate the spark of attraction, so something new can be created through the relationship. The Divine Mother is the most skillful and compassionate of matchmakers. She draws together relationships again and again – in romantic sense, but also in terms of friendships and workmates – for divine healing, growth and mutual benefit.

This blessing is also for inner healing as well as healing of relationship issues between you and another. Whomever is in your life right now is there for a reason. That reason is to learn. Your learning may simply be that you need to let go and move on. It may be about healing self-esteem and learning to speak your truth. It may also be about learning to live in accordance with your own values, or to stop judging yourself or another and find a more helpful and higher truth by looking at your situation through the eyes of compassion. Let your heart lead the way.

HARVEST MOTHER WATCHES OVER ME

I watch over you whilst you gaze within, for the time has come when you are best to gather your energy and direct it to your inner world. So much has been happening around you and within you. So much, that it needs time and attention to now be distilled, integrated and digested. It will bring you greater peace and a sense of completion to do this now. It is time to harvest your emotional world to be ready to gain the rich wisdom of your experiences. Then you shall be ready for us to begin again, for another chapter in your life journey – wiser, stronger and ready – together.

There has been so much happening in your outer world and even in your inner world, so much awakening, so much experience, that it needs to be processed, sorted through and released into some sort of useful content. If you do not do this you will feel a sort of uncomfortable fullness within, a sense of not being able to move forwards in life as freely as you would like. It may feel as though you need to empty out, create some space and find resolution within before you feel ready to take in more of what life has to offer. If such a natural process is not allowed, you will be pushing yourself towards overwhelm, fatigue, confusion and depression. It is safe and timely now for you to declutter your world, especially your internal world – although clearing out something of your physical world may be a way to enhance the process.

This is a time of great abundance, of hidden gifts becoming apparent and being received if you are willing to create some space. This is not a time to keep going with momentum or pursuing something simply out of habit. There is rich, growth-fuelling divine substance within our reach, and to receive that nectar of life you need to change pace. So whether it is journaling, closing your eyes and dancing in your living room, meditation or to relax and do nothing you are being advised to slow down and take some time for you.

WILD RIDER, BLESSING BESTOWED

I descend with wild love and bring we me such grace that there shall be an inflow of harmony, serenity, goodness and order restored to your life. There is no limit to the way that I can land in your life, to the order that I can call forth from the wild chaos that my truth my first evoke. I see from higher perspective that which can be altered so that the patterns of your life can heal and you can step forward on your path, with clear purpose. I bring you the embodiment of my mantra, opening your heart, and granting your prayer immediate answer. Om Mani Padme Hum.

Let go completely and allow the Divine to take over. Harmony and order is promised, but it may involve you, and your life, being shaken up a little first. This oracle is the Divine Mother saying “Giddy up! I’ve got work to do with you! Let’s go!” She is not in her calm and tender form, but in a wild love, free and fearless form, urging you to go willingly with her on the wild ride she is going to take, right through the centre of your life! So best to surrender and hop into the saddle behind her as she prepares to descend and create some living, compassionate and wild mess in your life.

You are being asked to forget about nice plans and things that make sense and about routines and strategies. It is a time to take your hands off matters. It is time to let your priorities be adjusted and your viewpoints be turned inside out. You won’t be eating at the banquet of life off clean dish, or politely sitting at the table with fork and knife. You’ll be messily munching away, sitting on the ground, feasting on chunks of life the Divine Mother shoves into your mouth to satisfy your wild and hungry soul. It is not a time to look pretty and worry about appearances. It is a time to come out of your head, into your body and allow yourself to feel and experience it without recrimination, analysis, shame or judgement. This is your irresistible invitation to the divine party where there is aliveness to be experienced beyond that which makes sense to your mind, even your values and philosophies.

It takes a brave soul to be willing to run the risk of realising you have known very little up until this moment. But the gifts in return for this messy, risky journey are abundant and delicious. You won’t be the same person after an encounter with the Wild Red Rider, but you will be more of your true self – more alive, empowered and vibrant – than ever before!

What a fabulous way to start this glorious month of May! Relationships, Self Exploration and full raucous Living! Yes!!! So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a fabulous week filled with the scents that evoke glorious memories and love. Remember there is now the monthly reading available and also the May Mini Message. Have a stupendous week, laugh a lot and revel in your gorgeous self! Huge hugs and squeezes!

Beltane is almost here!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Merry, Magnificent, Marvelous, Merry, Manifesting Monday!

So good to be back! It feels like it has been forever since we last connected, but in fact it has only been two weeks! How was your Easter? Did you get out and play, hunt for choccie eggs and do something fun? I hope so! We had a lovely family (family that is here) dinner, however, due to my son very kindly insisting that he would by a ham, and then not getting it to me until 6pm. Dinner wasn’t until 9pm! Ah well, we went and played on the beach, had skipping stone competitions, water fights and when we came home and walked in the door the smell was divine, it was quite lovely!

Now before we dive into Beltane and what it is and how to celebrate let’s talk about monthly energy. As you are aware the energy of each month shifts and invites us to be a bit more aware about certain ways we are showing up in our lives and where we can get taken off track and blindly carry on down the road of humdrum, same old, same old. I shared with some of you that every month I do a gorgeous monthly reading for myself. This reading gives me personally the energy of the month for me, then what to focus on each week. Quite a few of you responded that you would like that made available to you, so I am. Starting now there is a glorious Monthly energy reading that is available to you here! Which feels very appropriate with Beltane (May day) approaching – like on Wednesday! I’m also offering a May mini message which you can read about here as well.

Okay let’s take a little dip into what the heck Beltane is and whether you should pay attention to it or not. Beltane was thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar. Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

Beltane celebrates the height of Spring and the flowering of life. Earth energies are at their strongest and most active. All of life is bursting with potent fertility, look at the trees around you – (if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere), they are bursting forth with bright green leaves and the little sparrows are back as well as the robins. Abundant fertility, on all levels, is the central theme. My brother came to visit this weekend from Alberta, and was blown away by all the flowers and the smells that are happening as we are a good 7 weeks ahead of them. Rhododendrons are in bloom, there are fields of Camus lilies, Sea breeze is bobbing their little pink heads, the Iris’s are up and there are carpets galore of bluebells. Spring is here! Which is no surprise as Beltane is the festival that heralds in the fertility and growth of Spring. This is the time of unity between the Goddess and the God and massive celebration. For those of you who are on the email list there will be more information on Beltane tomorrow and a couple of super simple (we like simple) rituals to mark this fantabulous day. The colours of Beltane are red, green, white or silver and the ritual trees of this celebration are Birch, Hawthorn (which I planted two of) and of course Rowan. Speaking of Rowan, when my fourth child was born I had a ring made of Celtic knot work with Rowan leaves on it to celebrate his arrival.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading! When I went and asked which cards wanted to come out. The cards that wiggled and jiggled to come and guide this week are the glorious Oracle of the Dragonfae. Now if these delicious guides are new to you, please let me introduce them:- These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick! They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names. The most positively perfect guides as we enter this magickal time of Beltane and an energy shift for May, plus the New Moon.

The crystals and flowers that were adamant it was their time to shine and share are:- Chrysocolla – revitalises and balances the base, navel and solar plexus chakras. Amethyst – aid healing and intense spiritual growth. Last but not least, Angelite – transmutes pain and disorder into wholeness and healing, opening the way for spiritual inspiration. The lovely rhododendron flower, bluebells and pansy were most adamant to participate.

Okay, take a moment to come back into your body, allow your shoulders to nestle down your spine and just breathe long and deep. When you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper at you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

GRANDMOTHER MAGICKS

At this time of life change, you are drawing to you other beings and people, including divinities, who bring you solace, comfort and their unconditional love. You are surrounded by this comfort even in the beings of this Earth known as pets, but who are truly your guardians nd beloved companions…these pets are those who comfort you with their love and warmth, and their desire for your well-being, your company and your happiness, come what may. You may draw to you new friends at this time, or just be gifted with the kindness of strangers.

There are many wonderful beings in this world, some of whom are being sent directly to you to bring you comfort, to hold you, and to rock you safely to sleep each night. You are a being who is valuable, and who is loved beyond measure. Allow us to come close to you, and let us in. Bre prepared for kindnesses, small gifts and valuable windfalls when I make an appearance. Also, know that the old way of viewing this stage of life has fallen away….there is no need to take the lie up again. Let it be, and come forth into this new stage as beautiful as we know you are.

I also wish you to know that the time for change is coming: that you are passing from childhood of a kind, to a true deep maturity…this is a fine thing, and we will celebrate this together, you and I, together with the friends who want so very much to meet you!

AINE AND THE GUARDIAN

Here I stand, offering to you the protection and safety of my guardian being, wanting you to know how very protected you truly are. Never need you fear again those who have done you harm. This is over, and never again will disrespect and tyranny blight your path and light. Know that from this moment on, I stand with you, as does this magnificent Moondragonfae guardian, and together we say you may live as you wish, you may love as you wish, you may worship as you wish. No longer will others who feel they know best have their way with you, in spirit, in your heart, in your body, in your eternal soul. You are a radiant being of moonlit power, and the Goddess, our Mother, is overjoyed at your brilliance, your wit, your beauty, your freedom. I repeat. You are safe. You are protected. You are divine. All else is a lie.

Allow yourself to take flight, and explore the night and the freedoms it holds. The Moon cycles have much to reveal to you now, and as she wanes and waxes, and shines fully, you may stand beneath her and feel her rays shining through your every cell, filling you with natural magick that sustains your freedom, your true soul self, and brings you a warrior strength that by no means decreases your brilliances as a woman, or your femininity. Be receptive, and Aine will guide you to her magickal places, and this galactic Dragonfae being will help you see beyond our own star, the Sun, into the realms beyond. Your freedom and your self is as boundless as the night sky.

NIMUE

Between my two hands lies the power of all that is; the connections between the Earth and the stars, the realms through which you can move to bring about your deepest desires and dreams. But do you dare to dream it? Are you courageous enough to declare your desire? I can create, but I will not be brought froth when you do not have the fortitude to commit to your change. Make a commitment to thy own self now – she, who you truly are, is worth this trust, this pledge, this courage you must have to birth your own changing self. For I am gentle, but I too have no more time to spend if you wish to waste the jewels life has given you. I will turn away, because it may not yet be your time. Only you can say it is not so, and walk forth into your new self, with me as guide and light, with transformation as your nature, with your incarnation without material death as your truth.

Do this with me: Bless theyself. Love thyself. Know that you are beyond your own imaginings. Act this day, this hour, this minute, and change will flow. Do not hesitate. Be transformed now!

It is time for you to free yourself from the confines of others’ expectations and investigate other less conventional ways of making a living. You may be drawn to a particular crystal at this time, and may enjoy simply entering into more regular communion with the element of earth and its minerals. Wear jewelry that has been cleansed by you, and energised by you, and understand its significance and power for you. Make each piece you choose to wear a totem symbolising your own self, adorning and expressing who you truly are. Above all, the message of Nimue is to free yourself. Stop expecting others to unshackle the chains and force you to walk free. You, and only you, can remove that which is holding you back.

What a delicious reading! Talk about the perfect energies to go along with Beltane and the fiery, passion! Okay delicious lovely, remember to check out the monthly reading and the May mini message. If you want to receive information about Beltane and some easy rituals make sure you are on the email list. Wishing you a stupendous, fertile, abundant week filled with flowers, song, and laughter. Huge hugs and squeezes! See you next week!

Elements, Double Full Moon in Libra (Pink Moon), Easter and Earth day! Phew

Jenny Heston · 2:00 am ·

Happy, happy glorious Magickal, Magnificent, Marvelous, Mellow, Manifesting, Miraculous, Mischievous Monday!. How are you delicious lovely? How is your month going so far? How has it been working with Truth, Choice and Action? Before we dive into that I will say there is so much to share this week with Elements, Double Full Moon in Libra, Easter and Earth Day. So grab a cuppa, this might be a longer post!

Okay, if you have been feeling a tad in a funk, or just “grrrrrrrrr”. Keep in mind we had the New Moon in Aries on the 5th of this month and Aries is Fire baby, fire to ignite the dreams, desires and a bunsen burner under your passions. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac so now we start a whole new solar cycle as well as the energy of fire that accompanies Aries, thus destruction and creation.

Aries is a very initiatory energy which invites us to plant seeds pertaining to one idea and nurture it with fire (passion) to bring it into our future. Think about it, there are places in the woods, in the desert scape where when a wildfire happens and there is that intense, intense heat that seems to destroy everything, afterwards there are plants and flowers that haven’t been seen for years upon years. Why? Is it magic? Did random birds drop these seeds after the fire? No, it’s because these seeds lay dormant and needed the fire to get them to germinate and to grow. So remember to give those glorious seeds you planted at New Moon some chutzpah and passion (no this isn’t another thing to add to your to-do list, it’s intention and celebration!)

So let me ask what Elements do you most relate to? If you are unsure of what I am talking about, think about Air, Fire, Water, Earth. Which element do you really resonate with? Now, if someone had asked me that 10 years ago I would have said “ALL OF THEM”! I love when a wind picks up and I open my window to let it howl through. I love sitting around a fire with friends and family, sharing stories, music and just watching the flames. I love playing with Water! (If you ever come visit in the summer you may be splatted with a water gun as you walk up the path!) To walk amongst the trees, play in the garden put my hands and feet in the dirt is stupendous for me. All of these are good, but they are short and sporadic, what if the element is the whole season? For example, the element for Spring is Air, wind, rainstorms, big gusts, lightness, communication, growth and her direction is the East (also smudge). Summer is Fire, passion, wildfires, smoky skies etc. Her direction is South. Do you see where I am going? (If you have never listened to Vivaldi’s 4 Seasons I highly recommend it. Spring is all string instruments and is light, delightful and challenging.)

I asked this question of a client last week and she responded with her Sun sign, Moon sign, Saturn etc. Nope! I don’t want the labels, I want to know where makes you feel replenished over, over and over again. For example I have huge Fire and some Air in most every label you can name. For me, Water and Earth balance me out, when it gets too hot or the wind is too strong, that doesn’t make me feel fantabulous, yet walking in the woods, being by the ocean daily is like nectar to me. So what element(s) do you resonate with? I know my 6 month old puppy is most certainly Air and Earth. A wind picks up she goes bat shit crazy and dances and plays. Put her in the woods and she frolics like a faery on acid! Try and put her in Water it is a “Hell no” (even walking by the ocean every day) and if she gets too hot, or the fire that is burning is too loud – another – ummm, fuck no!

So let me ask again “What Elements resonate for you and how do you tap into them to nourish you?”

Okay, on Easter Good Friday we have the Full Moon in Libra, aka the Pink Moon! (That title makes me giggle.) The Full Pink Moon won’t actually be turning the perfect shade of millennial pink. BUT this moon means that spring is officially here and flowers are beginning to bloom. In fact, this moon’s name comes from the Herb moss pink phlox, or “wild ground” phlox, which is unsurprisingly a beautiful pink flower that blooms this time of year. This is also the second Full Moon in Libra in a row (we had one in April). The main theme are the patterns or cycles in relationships, which merit a conclusion.

It should be noted that the term relationships, seen from the perspective of modern astrology and Libra’s optics, involves both the treatment you give yourself and the feelings you cultivate in the interaction with others (partner, partners, family, friends). So if you have energy about yourself, or any relationship (whether work, family, friends, Uncle Tom Cobbly), what a perfect time to release it! Yes? (If you don’t have an Uncle Tom Cobbly don’t fret, lol).

Easter is quickly approaching and how are you going to celebrate? Time outside, visit with family, a large dinner, an egg hunt or just relaxing and watching it all happen? In normally create an egg hunt that is at least 2 km long, but for the first time in forever, I don’t have small people here to do that with. Hmmm, I think I shall have to create one for my neighbours and friends! Okay, a couple of jokes for you for Easter!

What do you get when you pour hot water down a rabbit hole? Hot cross bunnies!

Why did the Easter bunny cross the road? Because the chicken had its Easter eggs!

Hey, nowhere in this did I say they were good jokes lolol!

Then, last but not least we have Earth Day on Easter Monday (the 22nd). So my invitation to you is to get the heck outdoors with family or solo, all good. And go play in nature. Put your feet flat on the Earth, breath in the Air, celebrate the dew or snow (Water) and if you are somewhere warm and there are red flowers (Fire), celebrate it all. We live on a glorious, amazing Earth that nurtures and supports us, take a moment to let Mother Earth know you appreciate her and her bounty. Look up at the Sky and watch the clouds go by (even just for a moment).

Okay, I have chuntered on a shed ton. (I did tell you it might be a long post, hence why things are changing). When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support, inspire and guide this glorious week I was quite intrigued to see that the Earth Warriors Oracle were adamant. The reason I was intrigued is this deck doesn’t tend to often come out for public readings, but hey, I just go with what I am told! Lol.

Now if you haven’t met these gorgeous guides before, please let me introduce you:- There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

The crystals that most certainly were clear about coming are:- Fire Agate – Historically, Fire Agate was used in alchemy because it was believed to contain the essence of fire. In many traditions sacred to fire deities, it encouraged timid adults and shy children to speak up and not be ignored or bullied. It is a stone of integrity, encouraging high standards of behavior in self and others, and promotes passion in love and in life. Merlinite – is known to be a stone of duality. It speaks about light and dark, and the black and white. It’s a seemingly simple stone that can attract good luck and powerful magic into your life. It’s a stone that will invite you to discover the deeper and darker parts of your being. Rhodochrosite – Wherever you happen to be on your spiritual journey, whether it’s crying on the bathroom floor at the heartbreak hotel or floating on clouds sprinkled with fairy dust, the Rhodochrosite crystal brings the most healing medicine of all – unconditional love. And of course Selenite to amplify!

The delicious flowers that chose to join in are cherry blossoms and a delicious bluebell (they most certainly went in water afterwards).

Ready? Settle yourself. See in your mind’s eye the Element that calls to you. Just breathe in the place that nourishes you and makes you feel whole and clear. Whether it’s the woods, the water, paragliding, the heat and the furnace. Just breathe it in and let your shoulders drop and nestle along your spine. Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Okay, let’s go look, yes?

CH’ASKA

Ch’aska, Star of Venus, supports an inner shift to higher consciousness. Whether or not you consider yourself to be financially skillful, part of your sacred power and purpose includes the healing of economic and financial matters in your own life and the world. You are meant to experience abundance, creating and sharing prosperity from a place of inner spiritual security. A healing liberation from poverty consciousness allows the Universe to work through you more easily without the obstruction of negative conditioning.

You are being guide to give up false shame of not having enough, or guilt for having too much. Your true worth is a matter of soul and has nothing to do with material things. As you relax and acknowledge the love that the Universe has for you, your material reality will unfold with grace and divine support.

Financial healing is indicated. Let go of fear and trust unconditionally that the Universe is supporting you. What brings you a sense of joy, purpose and passionate devotion? Focus on that. Believe in your ability to thrive by being and expressing your authentic self. Notice how you relax into flow and more easily attract what you need when you acknowledge that the Universe wants you to flourish through being you. Focus on putting your beautiful beliefs out into the world, not in consuming the negativity or fear of others. Give of your spirit abundantly!

WHITE BUFFALO WOMAN

Have hope, for you are pure of heart, and White Buffalo Woman appears as the divine sign of rebirth and harmony. She is the way shower who lives as one with Great Spirit. She teaches the practices that will free and empower us all. She heralds the birth of the divine upon a new Earth. You are held in her heart, and you will recognise her beautiful grace of spirit in your own.

In the Native American tradition, the Sioux Mother, White Buffalo Woman, is a symbol of rebirth and spiritual promise. For those of us attempting to awaken higher values in closed hearts that are unwilling to shift from more self-serving ways, White Buffalo Woman brings a message of divine justice. This is not about revenge or a mean-spirited definition of karma and people getting what they deserve, for if one is disconnected enough from the heart to be self-serving, then one is already in a living hell. The divine justice that White Buffalo Woman heralds is the restorative and correcting power of Great Spirit that will always find a way. If Great Spirit needs to use an unlikely candidate to do that, then it will. The Divine is not limited to what we think is going to work. It is powerful in ways that are beyond human comprehension. It is able to enact divine law and elicit restoration even when we wonder if it’s all falling apart before our eyes.

This doesn’t mean that we give up our fight, but, rather, that we are renewed with optimism and enthusiasm to embrace our journey with the greatest ally working alongside us. We find comfort knowing that Great Spirit is with us, not doing for us, but neither turning away from us in our need. We feel a more peaceful trust in the ultimate success of our purpose, for, no matter how many twists and turns the path takes, behind and in front of every unexpected obstacle, Great Spirit is present.

KAITIAKI

You are Kaitaki, guardian of the Divine Feminine. Your relationship with Mother Earth, Papatuanuku, is sacred, empowering and healing. You are destined to become more spiritually intimate with her, sharing in her creative potency and wisdom. Lean into her and trust in her support, even as you serve her by courageously voicing truth. She is your great ally, friend and healer, and as you dedicate yourself to her, she dedicates herself to you.

Make peace and let go of past issues around being abandoned or not understood or of feeling unsupported, as those experiences need no longer colour your worldview. Trust that you belong here, and that your connection to the Earth Goddess will support you in all ways. You are sensitive, and rightly so. Never judge your sensitivity or feel that you are overreacting – but also allow nature to calm and soothe you, so that you can be focused on accomplishing your soul mission.

If you feel that you are on your own, when you would like some help, allow the Divine Mother to be your friend and guide, whilst trusting that at the right moment, more allies will arrive. The Earth Mother has her own sense of timing, and you are not forgotten. You are just growing according to her wisdom and grace. Have faith in yourself and in her!

Happy Elements. Happy Full Moon. Happy, Hippity Hoppity Easter! There will be no reading next week as I am taking the weekend and Monday to play, hang with family and play with the elements around me! Have a superb week and please if there is anything I can say to you – you are enough, in fact you are brilliant. Smile, play, create, smudge and find chocolate eggs! And when things get a tad tweaky – fucking breathe! Huge hugs and squeezes! See you in two weeks.

Post New Moon, Wholeness and Are you an Orange or a Clam?

Jenny Heston · 1:08 am ·

Happy Marvelous, Magickal, Magnificent, Miraculous, Merry, Majestic, Manifesting Monday delicious lovely!

How did your New Moon go? I will say for myself it was amazingly powerful! New Moon wishes were written, ritual was embraced and there was a ‘whoosh’ as I really worked with the energy of this fiery New Moon and walked past fear. (It was bizarrely delicious).

So this got me to thinking (of course it did!) About Wholeness and what the means, how do we embrace it or how do we shy away from it? First, let me clarify, to me Wholeness isn’t about perfection (as you have heard me say many times, perfection is an illusion). Wholeness is about embracing all pieces of oneself and welcoming them in as if they were guests coming for dinner. Giving them all a seat at the table, but not letting the fearful, toxic or shame centric ones run the conversation!

As I explored Wholeness more I came across Parker Palmer’s talk about the “Tragic Gap”. The gap between Soul and Role. Now what does that mean? Okay, as a child you came into the world with your soul right there and most certainly on the outside (seriously have you ever asked a 4 year old their honest open on something, as they will most certainly give it!) You bounced, you danced, you wore things that didn’t match and you celebrated the worm you saw on the pavement, you howled at having to go to bed when you were playing a cool game with your stuffies – you were YOU, no explanations, no obfuscations, no excuses. You just were, and there was Magick everywhere for you.

As you got older you took that soul inside, so to speak, and tucked it somewhere and took on a role, why? Because it felt safer. Now by role I don’t necessarily mean that of being a mother, father, teacher, but of a human navigating the world. So armour comes up, the smile can be plastered on and when you are asked how you feel your response is “Fine”! As this happens we tend to get encrusted by things that are not our soul, they are the societal stories, they are the stories we tell ourselves, they are the stories we have bought into, they are the fearful, limiting patterns we believe we have to adhere to to fit in.

Why? Because often we fear wholeness, it can feel really scary to be and share all the pieces of ourselves.

So to me being whole and living from soul is like being an Orange. (Stick with me here)! You know those glorious little mandarin oranges that we eat and often pop into our kids’ lunches? Imagine gently pulling the peel off and looking at all the segments that are joined together. The orange is whole right? Now imagine if that were you and each segment represented a piece of you – ALL THE PIECES! Grumpy, happy, Brave, fearful, Loving, bitter etc. Do you get it? Let me give you a visual for what I believe it looks like when we hide our soul and tuck it way in the back of the closet to keep it safe and to fit into society and be “accepted”. We become like a large clam shell, tightly closed with lots of little molluscs attached to the outside.

So I guess the question to ask ourselves is “What do I need to let go of to be whole and what do I need to keep to be whole?”

Would you rather be an orange or a clam shell?

So with that to ponder and explore for yourself, let’s crack on with the reading. I was tickled to be able to do this reading outside in the sun at the glorious stone table that came to me last week! (I wanted a stone element for the North of the garden and the other day, early in the morning when I was coming back from the beach with the doggo there it was on the boulevard! A glorious stone bistro table with the astrological signs carved into it and two cute little chairs!) I most certainly did a happy dance as I loaded it into the truck.

The cards that insisted on guiding and supporting this week are the amazing Lightworker Oracle, if you have never encountered this gorgeous deck, please let me introduce you. This deck is for lightworkers and what I mean by that is old souls. They have an interest in being of service. They want to live a life of passion and purpose and have their life mean something at a spiritual level. They care about causes that stir their hearts. They are often the black sheep of their family. Does this sound like you? I know it does for me.

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled are:- Peacock Ore – a stone for happiness and joy, it’s said to turn you in the right direction. Red Jasper – a stone to help with feeling more grounded and stable. Dallasite – helps you get back on track. Also, lovely little Calendula flowers insisted on showing up as well!

Okay, settle into your body and just Breathe, just let the breath come in through your nose and sigh it out through your mouth. If you want a little more help getting centred there’s a fun little guided visualisation for you. If not, just breathe all the way to the ends of your fingers and toes and allow the sense of Wholeness to float up into your minds eye. Then, when you’re ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

SIXTH RAY OF DEVOTION

The Sixth Ray of Devotion bestows the qualities of persistence, unwavering focus and intensity of feeling. It is a gift of strength to move mountains with your will for what you love, When the Sixth Ray of Devotion appears, you are being given guidance that even if you do not seem to have much worldy power right now, the power of your beliefs can conquer obstacles. The archangel Uriel helps you receive the blessing of the Sixth Ray, now.

You are receiving a blessing of the Sixth Ray of Devotion. It is serving your soul growth and will help you develop faith in your principles and trust in the power of your beliefs. You will be able to recognise and appreciate the extraordinary strength within you and realise that you have enough willpower to keep working towards your dream, overcoming any obstacle, until you are divinely successful.

The Sixth Ray reminds you of the power of love – which can conquer anything and everything! Love is an empowering, motivating force far stronger than fear. Love is the foundation of authentic spiritual devotion. When Archangel Uriel connects with you, a tremendous power – the power of earth – is brought to your aid. Uriel brings healing energy and an ability to cause real effect in the physical world with your mental and emotional power. Remember, you are here to shine your light. Others can choose to use your light to see by until they are ready to discover their own inner light – or not. It is not anything you need to worry about.

Simply live your truth, trust in your heartfelt beliefs and devote yourself to love. May kindness prevail and passionate idealism be tempered by mercy, for the greatest good. So be it.

ASCENSION – THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

You have been growing spiritually and your consciousness is expanding. It is transforming your experience of the material world from something you must control or conquer into a living expression of the radiant Divine. As your appreciation and love for the material world becomes more unconditional, so too does the light that can flow into your aura, chakras and physical body. As you psychically expand, you may need more rest, healing and meditation than usual to integrate this increasing degree of light and the consciousness it awakens in you.

The “Rainbow Bridge” is a term for the channel of light that moves through your chakra system and along your spine, allowing Spirit to enter your body and stimulate the development of your soul. This bridge comes to life as your consciousness is raised. It draws in higher energies that nourish and awaken your body, mind and soul through your chakra system.

As your chakras become stimulated by the increasing influx of spiritual light, a clearing process begins which supports the consequent expansion of your consciousness. This clearing is like a spiritual detoxification. It clears blocks from your mind, emotional body and physical body, as well as from your soul (such as unresolved past life issues). As these blocks are broken down and processed, emotional trauma stored in your organs and nervous system can be released, and your energy field becomes more spacious. As a result, you feel clearer about who you are and why you are here and others see more clearly, when they are in your field. You become more powerful.

Enjoy crossing the rainbow bridge into new consciousness, dear one. You have everything you need. You are ready for this. It is meant to be.

DIVINE GRACE – THE LAW OF EFFICIENCY

It is time your life became easier. It is time for you to walk the way of divine grace with trust, simplicity and acceptance. You do not have to try to make things happen. You can gracefully act without attachment and trust that all will be as it is meant to be. Surrender your struggles, now, as you allow life to serve you with love and kindness. This is the most efficient use of your energy and will lead to the best results.

The Law of Efficiency encourages us to work smarter, rather than always working harder. It is like learning to allow a wave to carry you to shore, rather than swimming the entire way with your own efforts alone – or even against the current, which would make the journey even harder. It is like planting a seed at the right time so nature will help it bloom in the spring, rather than planting it during the dead of winter., when it takes a lot of effort to keep it alive – and even then it may not survive. This is the intelligence of the Law of Efficiency and divine grace at work.

To hitch your wagon to the Universe in this way, you need to learn to listen. This means tuning in to what feels right or wrong at any given time. Sometimes, you will want to push forward, yet your intuitive knowing will guide you to rest. Sometimes, you will want to hide from a challenge – and yet know in your bones it is time to step up and shine with boldness, despite the fear you may feel.

How efficient to work with life and its cycles, rather than believing you must struggle and strain to be heard, loved, rewarded and inspired. You have that maturity within you. Trust now. Trust that all will come in time.

Wowzers, what glorious cards! I invite you to really breathe in the energy and the messages of the cards that chose you and allow them to perk during this upcoming week as you let the idea of Wholeness dance through your psyche, and what it means for you. Wishing you a stupendous week delicious one, may it be filled with a plethora of Spring flowers and enough spring showers to keep everything fresh and perky. Don’t forget to get outside and breathe in the air, smile and wiggle your toes. You are perfectly delicious and delightful as the Whole being you are! Huge hugs and squeezes!

Whales and Sea Lions Battling, April Energy has changed, and we have a New Moon in Aries!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Marvelous, ‘Mazing, Mischievous, Manifesting Monday! How are you delicious one? So much to explore with the shift in energy for April and the lovely New Moon that’s happening this week, however, first let me share about the 100’s of Orcas I saw this morning!

As I do every morning I go to the beach with the doggo. So I got there bright and early and was walking along the beach reciting mantra and picking up rocks when all of a sudden I looked up and coming around the point was a massive super pod of Orcas! (Apparently there was a plankton blushing with the hot weather) and they were majestic! Undulating in and out of the water, blowing water up in the air – it was awe inspiring! I mean seriously, how can you watch these majestic beasts and not be blown away? Then all of a sudden as the last Orca rounded the point 4 HUGE sea lions slid off the rocky point and started attacking the last Orca! I was gob smacked! There was all sorts of noise, splashing and you could see bodies flipping up and around and tails smacking the water. I have never seen the like! Then within about 4 minutes it was all done and when I looked around the Orcas and sea lions had vanished.

Okay, I have to ask, am I the only demented one that loves April Fools day and likes to play practical jokes and little twists of the mind with people? In my world, if it is harmless, no one gets hurt (possibly confused), then it’s all good. A few years ago I altered all the clocks in the house by 2 hours and so the kids dashed to the bus stop about 2 hours before a bus would be there. I will be honest, I let them wait for a good 30 minutes and when I pulled up in the vehicle they were highly concerned they had missed the bus, something had happened, where was the bus? (I know, what a horrid mother I am). So I explained to them what had happened, thanked them for the saran wrapped toilet and the salt in the sugar and we all went for a yummy breakie!

Thus gorgeous one, Happy April Fool’s Day! (Playing and laughing are so important, if you’re not doing it, then you need to start (just saying)). Or come for a visit and we will make it gigglicious and glorious fun and hopefully see Orcas!

The energy for April has changed – do you remember the theme from last month? It was Activation. Well this month it is TRUTH, CHOICE AND ACTION, repeat that to yourself again – Truth, Choice and Action – how does that feel? Let me share what the amazing Lena says about this energy. “This is a very interesting month with many ups and downs, twists and turns, eccentric insights, and changes and reversals that will definitely keep you on your toes. The themes of Truth, Choice and Action create a channel for transformation that is much like the birth canal. The only way out is by going through it and there is no going back.

Truth comes as an inner knowing not yet defined. Choice is the emotional commitment that needs no explanation or reason. Action is the disciplined follow-through that anchors a new path.”

Wowzer! To read more you can find it at Lena’s site here.

On top of all this we have the New Moon in Aries on Friday, April 5th. According to Forever Conscious:- “We have been moving through a portal of energy. This energy was triggered on the Super Moon back in March and will continue until the Full Moon on April 19th. The April New Moon on the 5th is the midpoint of this journey and is the marker where we get to decide if we are ready for something new.

Perhaps you are feeling this in your life in some way. Perhaps you are feeling the call to let go of the old you. Perhaps you are feeling the call to clear out limited beliefs and to remove the blocks that are leaving you stuck.

On the night of the Aries New Moon, we are all going to be given the opportunity to embrace a new way of being and to keep moving through this portal of energy so we can evolve, grow, and renew. The Aries New Moon is typically the best time for manifesting, setting goals, planting seeds, and making wishes. If you want a time of year for getting clear on your dreams and mapping out what the future will look and feel like, the Aries New Moon is one of the best.

Aries is fiery, it represents leadership and action, and on an Aries New Moon there is supercharged energy in the cosmos that can help bring us closer to the life that we desire. On an Aries New Moon, we can send our wishes out to the Universe with confidence that they will be heard and that we will find the steps we need to turn them into realities.”

So with all this delicious energy swirling around, remember to make your New Moon wishes on Friday!

Okay, let’s crack on with the reading. When I asked the cards who wanted to work with us all, guide, support, inspire and help us on this glorious day the Divine Circus Oracle literally jumped so high that it was like a hand to the forehead! This is a gorgeous deck for the bold, the ones that find it hard to follow the rules “What is life if not a Divine Circus? Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us a moment earlier.”

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come and join in are:- Atlantasite – will help you find inner peace. It will also stabilize your moods. It’s a wonderful meditation stone that will help you access and retrieve ancient information and wisdom about your past lives. We then have Citrine – premier stone of manifestation, imagination, and personal will. Carrying the power of the sun, it is warm and comforting, energizing and life giving. Last, but not least, Snowflake Obsidian – is a very grounding and protective stone. It is used as a great cleanser of negative energies, helping to remove not only negativity experienced in the environment, but also that of one’s own emotions, such as anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, etc.

Thanks to the wonderful reminder from a glorious reader to put the energetic descriptions in!

Okey, dokey – let’s crack on yes? Gently breathe yourself back into your body and as you feel yourself settle allow the theme of Truth, Choice and Action to float through your being. Breathe that in and invite it to choose the card or cards that would serve your highest good this week.

Ready?

Shall we go have a look?

DEATH SHALL NOT TAKE HIM

You are going to witness the impossible made possible. Whatever you think is lost, is not. Whatever you think cannot be, shall be. The universe is going to intervene and what seems to be over, shall in a new way, live again.

Sometimes, just when you think it’s all over, the eleventh hour comes. You can practically hear the opening chords of your swan song, and when you have finally given up, suddenly, somehow, right before your eyes, everything changes – just like that. You were free-falling and then, suddenly, you are soaring. Fate steps in, destinies are altered and life demonstrates its creative, restorative power, even if all seemed lost.

No matter how defeated you feel, no matter how many dead ends you’ve encountered, how many setbacks, how many failures, no matter how impossible success may seem, the universe has your back and is going to right things in your favour. You will succeed. So if you really must (sigh) doubt for one more moment – go ahead, then replace doubt with trust and participate in the divine defiance of life refusing to be stepped on or crushed. Why not just frigging relax and bear witness to the universe’s impressive display of life-giving power with reverence and delight? Gorgeous one – get out of your own way!

PLAY YOUR HAND

Have you been playing your cards close to your chest? Have you been waiting for the universe to give you a sign, for life to show you how to proceed? Sometimes we need to be patient and surrendered, but there’s also a time to take the initiative. It’s your time to show your hand to the universe. What do you want? What can you offer? Ask! Express! Expect! The Universe is waiting for you to make your move.

There are times to surrender and flow, to let the universe show you where to go. Then there are times when you need to choose, to play your cards, to make your move. The Universe is asking you, “What do you want? What are you willing to do?

Don’t waste a golden opportunity and such a receptive audience! Go into your heart and ask for what you want. If you don’t know the details, that is just fine! Ask for the essence of what you want and leave the fine details up to the universe to sort out. Do you want love? Abundance? Peace? Pleasure? Passion? Purpose? Or do you want creative freedom, to discover, express and enjoy the hidden inner treasures of your unknown talent, to feel so safe and secure within that you can relax and live your life to the full?

You have to take the first step, then all manner of support will come into play. It’s not a time for dreaming only; it’s a time for doing – even if it’s just one step in the direction of your dreams. Do it! Go for it – with gusto! Your confidence and willingness to be open are your keys to winning the game. So game on, sweet soul! Show your cards; let the dice roll!

DIVINE DISGUISE

Some blessings are obvious – the door that opens, the person who says yes and the instant success of an idea. But not all blessings are instantly recognisable. Some blessings are so veiled that at first you might consider them to be an unwanted development. A concealed blessing is either already at work in your life or on its way. Don’t worry if you feel like things aren’t working out as they should. Soon enough, the disguise will be dropped, and the blessed unmasked in all its beauty.

Blessings are the mysterious workings of the universe, there to help us along our unique life path to live our truths and fulfill our potential. The universe has the knack of knowing just what it is we need, even when sometimes we might think we need something altogether different. This is how it can be that something we resist and reject in our lives can become the very thing we’re most grateful for later on. We realise it had been a blessing masked, something actually helping us, even though it might have come in the form of a challenge or a struggle before we eventually gain great benefit from it.

The real beauty of a situation isn’t obvious to you yet. But trust and have peace of mind and a realisation that the universe does really know what it’s doing. It’s in your corner, on your side, cheering you on and helping you avoid unnecessary pitfalls, even if you don’t know they exist. There is no need to worry, even that which appears to be most troublesome is going to reveal itself to be working in your favour!

So my glorious one I wish you a stupendous week, loads and loads of laughter and play. Remember to get outside and connect yourself back to the elements and breathe! May your week be filled with discovering your Truth, making a Choice and taking Action (and also vases of glorious Spring blossoms)! See you next week. Huge hugs and squeezes!
