Dearest Gentle Reader,

(Yes… I’m still loving how that sounds.)

We are at the tail end of February and holy hannah — what a whizz-bang of a month. The collective feels noisy, tender, chaotic. Winds whipping. Opinions flying. Hearts a little frayed.

And here on the West Coast, Mumma Nature is putting on her own dramatic flair. Temperatures have dropped, atmospheric rivers are rolling in, and it is properly cold and wet. The kind of cold that seeps into your bones when you’re out walking the doggos and the rain is coming at you sideways.

And yet… I get to come home.

I get to turn on the kettle.

I get to peel off wet layers and wrap myself in warmth.

What if you can’t?

February 28th marks The Coldest Night of the Year Walk — a national movement that began in 2011 to raise funds and awareness for homelessness and poverty. The funds support local charities doing the real, gritty, heart-forward work: food, clothing, shelter, programmes, dignity.

On Valentine’s Day, I walked through encampments handing out little love packages of cookies. I listened to stories. Hard stories. An elderly couple in their 80s, newly on the street because their rent was tripled. Let that land.

There is no turning away once you’ve looked into someone’s eyes.

It reminds me how profoundly blessed I am. How blessed most of us are. And how fragile “security” can be.

Community is not optional. It is essential.

Smile at someone.

Have the conversation.

Offer what you can — even if it is simply your time and presence.

We are interconnected whether we acknowledge it or not.

(Alright, stepping gently off my soapbox now.)

And as if the earthly weather wasn’t enough, the cosmic weather is also shifting.

Mercury stations retrograde from February 26 to March 20 — entirely in mystical Pisces.

But this one feels different.

Not chaotic. Not glitchy. Not “hide your emails.”

More like: descend inward.

When Mercury retrogrades in Pisces, we are invited beneath the surface — into dreams, intuition, memory, and the subtle realms. This isn’t about fighting delays; it’s about listening more deeply.

The question becomes:

What spiritual insight needs revisiting so my intuition can clarify?

And this retrograde doesn’t stand alone.

It unfolds in the heart of eclipse season — revelation energy.

It follows the rare Saturn–Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries on February 20th — dissolving old structures and seeding entirely new paradigms.

It swims fully in Pisces — amplifying sensitivity and access to the unseen.

There is profound shifting happening. Above. Below. Within.

If February has felt turbulent, perhaps it is not chaos — perhaps it is recalibration.

Both the earthly cold and the cosmic tides are asking the same thing:

Come back to what matters.

Care for one another.

Listen deeply.

Anchor in compassion.

We walk each other home.

Now with me chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading.

I invite you to take a moment to stop, to pause, to breathe in those aspects of safety, comfort and connection that we often take for granted.  Close your eyes and ask your wise inner self what it is YOU need to hear this last week of February?

When you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate and call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see, shall we?

ANGELS OF THE FOUR DIRECTIONS

Uriel, Raphael, Michael & Gabriel

The light of an angel reaches out in every direction.  This reveals the dynamic presence of archangels Uriel and Raphael.

Ureil, the angel of the north, is a source of immensely valuable inspiration. 

If you’re working on a creative project or if you just need some new ideas on some old issues, Uriel is ready and willing to help.

This angel connects you to the Universal energy and Akashic information that exists all around you.

So call on Uriel to leave any dark confusion behind and bring the insight you require at this time.  

This “Fire of the God” will certainly light up your life!

The next messenger is Raphael, the archangel of the east.

This wonderful angel supports you with matters of love, healing, children, and relationships.

So invite his presence to help resolve your love and relationship issues and to bring the physical healing you desire.  

The energy of this angel is so powerful, he is often called the Miracle Worker.  

I invite the power and wonderful energy of .(name the angel).  I ask for help and healing concerning (name the issue), and I give thanks.  

THE VAST UNIVERSE

Blessings of Divine Consciousness

A bright sun, spinning in the heavens and projecting Divine Light to the Earth, sends out brilliant waves of Universal energy.

This is a vast river of grace, abundance, and happiness that is open for you!

You yourself have  your own Divine heart, one that is connected to all other people and things – and to boundless creative energy.

This power is always available to you, but you have now arrived at a time when the whole world is about to open up!

Opportunity awaits.  Amazing connections are available to you.  

The Eternal Consciousness that co-creates all reality is in alignment with your own heartfelt desires.  

This is the time to focus your energy there by creating a treasure map or vision board filled with bright images, writing a clear attraction intention, or directing your angels to carry your intentions to the energetic realm.

The entire Universe is waiting and willing to respond!

The light of God fills me.  Divine Consciousness guides me.  Abundant blessings of the Universe flow into my life.  

HAPPY SUCCESS

The Wish is Fulfilled

A man stands in a flowering field with his arms stretched out, happily looking up at the sky.

It’s raining beautiful gems, silver coins, and droplets of bright light.  

He is clearly filled with joy about the abundant blessings coming his way.

Happiness is a choice, as is the consciousness of success.

When you live in these mental attitudes, it’s only a matter of time before you, too, are showered with the blessings you desire.

This is a time of joy and abundance for you.  This may be in the form of wealth, love, or business achievement.  

The promise here is that the wish you’ve been dreaming about is coming your way.

So open up to the success in your heart and to the happiness already in your life – and get ready for much more to come!

I focus on the beauty and success of my spirit.  The world is abundant, and I know that wonderful things are coming my way.  

Woosah! Glorious messages, interesting energy and an important reminder about community. Sending you huge love and hugs. Wish me luck as I walk on Coldest Night of the Year.

2026: The Year the Fire Finds You.

· ·

Gorgeous Soul,

Can you feel it?

There is a crackle in the air. A hum under the surface. That sense that something is shifting — not in a dramatic crash-and-bang way — but in a quiet, inevitable of course this is happening way.

2026 is not arriving politely. It is walking in through a Ring of Fire.

On February 17th we have the Aquarius Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse — and honestly? If ever there was a cosmic moment that whispered (and maybe shouted), expect the unexpected, this is it.

And as if that wasn’t enough, we enter the Year of the Yang Fire Horse on the very same day. Fire upon fire.

Oh my giddy aunt.

The Ring of Fire: A Doorway, Not a Disaster

A Ring of Fire Eclipse leaves that luminous halo of light around the shadow. The Sun is partially veiled, but not extinguished. There is illumination in the darkness.

And that feels important.

This Eclipse begins a new Aquarius–Leo cycle that will unfold over the next 18 months. If you think back to 2017–2019, you may see echoes. Themes revisiting. But you are not the same woman. Not the same soul.

You’ve shed. You’ve survived. You’ve grown teeth where you once had tremble.

Uranus — planet of awakening and plot twists — is active here. So yes, there may be surprises. Sudden clarity. Doors closing abruptly so others can open.

But this doesn’t feel chaotic to me.

It feels catalytic.

Like the first stone being placed on a path that hasn’t fully formed yet. You can sense it. You don’t yet see the whole road. But something has begun.

The Softness Inside the Flame

What I love about this particular Eclipse is that woven through the fire is healing.

There is a gentle current asking us to slow down. To go outside. To place our hands on the earth. To listen to our dreams. To tend to our bodies like they matter — because they do.

Nature holds medicine this year. Your intuition holds medicine this year.

Ask yourself:

  • What truly replenishes me?
  • Where am I exhausted?
  • Where am I burning too hot?
  • Where am I barely glowing at all?

Healing may not come in grand gestures. It may arrive in a walk. In a conversation. In finally honoring what your body has been whispering for months.

Enter the Yang Fire Horse 🔥

Now let’s talk about the Fire Horse.

Bold. Bright. Fast-moving.

Yang energy is external. It shows up in the world. It doesn’t sit quietly journaling about what might happen. It moves.

This is not a year of stagnation.

This is a year of:

  • launching
  • leading
  • leaping
  • finally doing the thing

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect sign, the perfect moment, the perfect alignment?

The Horse gently (or not so gently) reminds us — momentum comes after you move.

Not before.

And yes, there will be passion. Possibly conflict. Emotions running hotter. The world stage may reflect that intensity. Which is why your relationship with your own fire matters.

Let’s Talk About Your Fire

Fire is not just intensity.

It is vitality. Courage. Creative spark. Purpose.

Balanced fire looks like:
Standing up for yourself.
Following what lights you up.
Speaking from the heart while still listening.
Having energy that sustains rather than scorches.

Unbalanced fire looks like burnout. Irritation. Snapping at people you love. Exhaustion masked as productivity.

So pause and ask:
Where is my flame too low?
Where is it raging?
Where does it need tending?

This year is not about reckless burning. It is about conscious courage.

Community, Collaboration & Brave Yeses

Horse energy is social. Expansive. Curious.

This is a beautiful year to meet new people. Collaborate. Start projects. Rekindle relationships that feel a little stale.

It favors introductions. Visibility. Saying yes to experiences that stretch you.

Adventure doesn’t always mean hopping on a plane. Sometimes it’s sending the email. Joining the group. Hosting the gathering. Having the honest conversation.

Tiny brave acts. Repeated.

Setting Intentions Under the Eclipse

Solar Eclipses are like supercharged New Moons — but this one asks for open palms.

Instead of rigid goals, try:

“Guide me toward what is aligned.”
“Strengthen me for what is emerging.”
“Help me recognize the door when it opens.”

Sometimes the most powerful intention is simply willingness.

Willingness to grow.
Willingness to release.
Willingness to act.

Final Musings

2026 is not subtle. It is a year of new beginnings.
A Number 1 year. A Fire Horse year. An Eclipse year.

It asks:
Will you move?
Will you speak?
Will you trust the path even before you see it fully formed?

Now with all that chuntering let’s crack on with what your guides want to share! (Oh and for the lovely 2 people who have messaged me saying I use AI to write – my words, Spirit guidance.)

So darling one, just take a moment.  Take a moment to count your blessings.

Just breathe.  Allow your gorgeous heart to open and soften and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

OUR LADY OF RIPENING ON THE VINE

“I ask you to surrender your future thinking to me.  Although your future contains the promise of great blessings, do not let this distract you from the blessing I bestow upon you in this moment.  I ask you to open your arms to my blessings in the here and now.  You are the sweet fruit, heavy on the vine.  The time for harvest has come.  This is your time.”

Many of us who love the Holy Mother are dreamers.  We might be practical and hard-working, attending to the details of daily life and spiritual consciousness, but we have hope in our hearts.

Yet that hope may be for the future – our future, that of our children, of our planet.

This hope is a precious light that is needed in the world.  Yet our light of hope is also needed in the here and now.  

We need to be living the Divine now, not only dreaming of a more divinely aligned life in a fantasy of the future.

Live your light now; to benefit yourself and the world with your presence.  Now.  Yes, we are always growing, yet there is a readiness within you now.  

There is something within you, something of you, that is ready.  Even if the immediate reality doesn’t match a fantasy that you have once held about how life would be when you would finally share more of yourself with the world, you are still ready and this is your time to shine.  

The Mother asks you to honour the light that is ignited within you now, and to act upon it with utter faith.  The dreamers are needed in this present moment, you see.

We can help the sacred becoming, the healing of the world according to the Divine Mother’s grace, by how we choose to be at this time.  

Now is the time to trust.  There is so much waiting for you in this moment.  

Gather your harvest.  Let your divine inheritance come to you now, as naturally as fruit ripening on the vine.

You are needed.  

OUR LADY OF THE RESURRECTION

“The eternal light dwells in my heart and as you enter into my heart, held safe in my love for  you, that light becomes visible to you.  It will show you the way through any darkness, and help you understand the purpose of past suffering, so that you can let it go and be at peace, free from confusion, shame or doubt.  There is divine purpose within all that is.  You have been struggling and now it is time for rest.  Step into the light of my heart now, beloved, and let the darkness go.  The time is drawing near for your resurrection and release.”

It is a strange paradox that when we are truly open to life, we must be prepared to die many deaths before it is time for our physical life to end.  

We might suffer the deaths of relationships, of ideals, of identities, even of certain hopes and dreams.  If we can mourn these deaths, give them proper attention and due acknowledgment, grieving in whatever way is respectful and truthful, then those deaths become sacred sacrifices on the altar of new life.

If we try to rush past these many deaths, pushing them to one side out of fear that they may mean something terrible or frightening, then we will suffer more than needs be.

Perhaps we become fearful if we feel that we are not in control of life and cannot prevent its powerful unfolding, because we do not trust where life is leading us.  Then too, we miss our chance to make a sacrifice and feel more connected with life, and with death as a natural part of life.

We don’t need to be scared, we can accept that they are signs that we are growing and life is flowing.  We can even use them to gain confidence that a new direction, a new life, is calling us.  There is always so much more to come.  Always.  No matter how old we may be, or how jaded we may feel at times, there is always boundless life awaiting us.  All that is needed is a willingness for us to be open to receiving it.  

Let Our Lady of Resurrection lift you up from even the deepest sorrow and gently urge you into new light, new understanding, and new life.

Take heed, beloved, your time of darkness is swiftly drawing to a close and a new day is soon to be upon you.

Breathe, trust, embrace.

OUR LADY OF THE ROSE CROWN

“You are my child and a royal divine being.  I protect  your spiritual deeping now, as you descend further into the living divine heart, and know all to be love.  As the mysteries reveal themselves to you now, divine rapture awaits you.  I shall keep you grounded and authentic, productive in the world that needs your light, even as I guide you into ecstatic communion with  your holy nature.”

No matter where we think we are on our spiritual path, there is always somewhere, and something deeper to experience.  

You are about to enter into another level of spiritual experience.  This new level will be appropriate and healing for you – taking you naturally along in your spiritual progress.

What might be suitable for another is unlikely to be exactly right for you.  Our Lady watches over you with all knowing tenderness and fierce protection.  Only what you need, will come to you.  

In order to be prepared, we might have to be challenged in a relationship that really stretches or breaks our heart.  In that situation we are learning to love more unconditionally, to either let the relationship go or stay with it, depending on what is right for us.  

We might experience weeks, months or even  years of not really knowing, with any certainty, if we are on the right path or living the life we are supposed to be living.  In that continued crisis, we are learning how to remain present, to remain open and to learn to trust, even in the absence of clarity.  

Or perhaps everything in our life seems to be upside down; a loved one is struggling, or our own inability to resolve an issue that has troubled us deeply for some time, and is causing us to feel almost unbearable anguish.

No matter what the crisis or challenge, the way that we learned to respond and grow through it provided us with the development that we needed to be able to sustain the next level of divine experience.  

Love is the most powerful force in our universe.  It is in everything and reveals itself in unlimited ways.  

To encounter this love, to be open to it, ready to receive it and be changed, illuminated, irradiated by it.

Our Lady of the Rose Crown comes to tell you that you have been in preparation and now the time is fast approaching, or is already upon you, whereby you are opening to more divine realisation.  No matter what you may initially think, what you are being shown right now is more of the divine in its mysterious, creative, funny and unfathomable genius.

You truly are a magnificent royal child of the Divine.  Own it!

Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer – you can’t make this shit up! I invite you to allow your feelings to rise and be released, cleanse your heart and your mind and remember – you are here for a reason!  There is something you are meant to share, so please do.

Love, Snakes & a Cosmic Smack-Down!

· ·

Gorgeous Soul,

As I sat down to write this reading, my guides barged in with a full-on soundtrack of love songs — the kind your parents used to belt out in the kitchen. “Love is in the air…” Tina Turner rocking “What’s love got to do with it?” — and a shed ton more. Apparently subtlety was not on the agenda.

I thought I was going to write about Valentine’s Day — how it’s largely a made-up celebration that Hallmark, chocolate makers, and rose sellers are doing very well from, thank you very much.

Well.

My spiritual posse gave me a firm energetic smack-down. And when they smack, I pay attention. So this isn’t going where I expected — stick with me… or don’t. Your choice. 😉

We’re in a potent moment right now. We are in the final week of the Year of the Snake, standing at the threshold of Chinese New Year, with a Solar Eclipse approaching. This is shedding energy. Threshold energy. Old skins cracking. Truth rising.

A deep invitation to look at what — and who — we are loving.

Yes, in Western culture Valentine’s Day is in full swing. Shops are overflowing with glittery hearts, a single rose costs the price of a small mortgage, and chocolate has mysteriously shot up by what feels like 35%.

And if I’m honest? Valentine’s Day has always irritated me a bit — not because I don’t believe in love, but because I don’t understand why we’ve reduced something so vast to a single, commercial day… and why it’s mostly focused on romantic love.

What about the rest of it?

What if you’re not in a romantic relationship?
What if you’ve lost your partner?
What about love for friends, family, community, nature, spirit… and most importantly — yourself?

Because here’s the truth: without self-love — real, grounded, nourishing love — you have nothing solid to build from. And let’s clear this up right now…

Self-love is not selfish.

A client once told me they felt guilty taking time for themselves — as though nurturing their own body and spirit was indulgent. It isn’t. It’s foundational.

Self-love is tending your mind, your body, and your spirit. It’s choosing practices that light you up instead of drain you. It’s honouring what excites you, nourishes you, and brings you back home to yourself.

To love, forgive, and accept yourself fully is pure magick. It opens the channel for the Divine to move through you with ease.

So this year — in the wild, shedding, eclipse-kissed energy we’re standing in — I invite you to redefine romance.

Ask yourself:

How can I love myself better?
How can I become my own most devoted partner?
What would it look like to court my own joy?

Book yourself a romantic date.
Move your body slowly and with intention.
Journal your feelings.
Speak to yourself with the kindness you offer your best friend.
Seek support where you need healing.

Fall in love with your glorious self — daily, not just on Valentine’s Day.

And remember, love all of yourself – even the jiggly bits lol, because you are so, so very worth it! 

Use the emotional waters of this time and upcoming Eclipse to write yourself a love letter — a declaration of devotion to your own becoming.

I’ve created a glorious Self Love Spell, which is an easy and lovely candle ritual for you to do.  

Okay, I have chuntered on enough, so let’s crack on with the reading.  

When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to share their wisdom and insight with you this week, the glorious “Love Your Inner Goddess” guides came out big and bold.

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time.  Woosah!

Okay dear heart, just settle into yourself.  Allow your breath to find its natural rhythm.  Just breathe into all the corners of your glorious being, and allow in your mind’s eye a glorious vortex to start swirling.  As it opens, see it filled with love, all sorts of love and allow it to soothe you and to remind you that you are love incarnate.  Then when you’re ready pick the card or cards that dance around your heart.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

FREAKING BEAUTIFUL

You are here to march to your own beat.  You can be happy and free, whether the world looks at you with awe, admiration, confusion or love – or all of these at once.

Normal is not for you.  Don’t be afraid of that!  Deep down you are the good kind of crazy, an individual.  You would never be happy trying to be the same as everyone else!  You have an inner sense of justice and a need to question authority when it doesn’t earn your respect.  This may make some people uncomfortable, whilst it inspires others to think for themselves and not automatically assume that everything they are told is correct.  We need more of this in our world!

You are a free thinker with a different point of view to most people.  This isn’t a sign that something is wrong with you, but a sign of something special – a gift to see and express things differently.  The world needs much more of that too!

Your weird streak is a proverbial breath of rhea air, preventing unimaginative collapse into the boredom of sameness.  It also makes you a divine poster child for others who want to break free from conformity and unapologetically be truly themselves.  It means that you get to dream up your own destiny, and you don’t have to worry about what anyone else has to say about it.  The Universe will support you every step of the way – because it so enjoys you just being you!  

BEAUTIFUL BANDIT

You can choose right now to feel good about yourself.  If you’ve been beating yourself up, stop it now.  Don’t let anyone else decide how you should feel about yourself.  Taking responsibility for your actions means that when you have done something that you feel is out of integrity, you do something about it that is constructive and useful.  Shaming yourself with judgement, or allowing another to steal your self-esteem, is neither of those things.

The Divine Mother is telling you to forgive yourself and use your energy not to live the best life that you can.  It’s time to take your life back.

You are one tough sweetheart, a spiritual gangster,a  beautiful bandit, stealing back from the unworthy that which rightfully belongs with you.  You have certain spiritual rights that cannot be denied you.  Your dignity, power and grace, your sense of beauty and self-esteem, your chosen belief systems, your energy and your right to take up space in this world rightfully belong to your soul.  Your faith in your spiritual connection with the Universe and your sense of your life purpose belong to your soul, too.  So do your joy, your laughter and your enjoyment of life, your belief in your own purity of heart and the goodness of your own being.  Your right to love yourself is owned by your soul, too.  

Even when you make mistakes, the great Mother loves and forgives you, knowing that you are doing your best and are her precious one.  You have a spiritual right to be free from torment, cruelty and mental anguish.  You alone own the right to choose your thoughts and claim your freedom to make your own choices.  You are fierce with wisdom.  

Anything that you feel has been taken from you unfairly shall be taken back by you.  Claim what is yours by spiritual right.  

PEACOCK PRIESTESS

Daily life can get us down before we even realise what is happening. Trying to do it all can push us beyond our limits, draining our energy and stealing our joy.

One moment, we are on top of the world; the next moment, we wonder what happened and why we cannot rally our spirit. If we do not learn how to rest, exhaustion, crankiness and illness eventually force our hand. It takes longer to break down and recover – and is much more painful than it is to learn to rest as part of our lifestyle.

Rest is not only a way to prevent unnecessary suffering, it also has its own value. When we are in restful quiet, we can hear our inner voice and the guidance of spirit much more clearly. We can feel gratitude and take delight in what brings us pleasure. Rest is part of how we live well.

Peacock Priestess reminds you that you can see taking rest as an act of love and a way to be a good role model. Don’t allow guilt or shame to stop you from taking delight in your downtime. What kind of rest you need will vary. It could be a long nap, painting, listening to music, writing poetry or practicing meditation, a bath with candles, visiting a temple or church to sit quietly , working in your garden, playing with animals or going for a walk and being in nature, soaking up her beautiful healing energy.

There are many ways to rest. Try some. Find out what you enjoy.

If you feel impatient for something to happen – or worried that you are not accomplishing all that you want to achieve quickly enough – then take heart.

The Universe is working with you, not against you, to bring your dreams to life. Even times when not much seems to be happening are a part of this creative process, balancing out other times when energy becomes active and intense.

What will be most helpful for you and your dreams right now is to rest. During that pleasurable rest, behind the scenes, some spiritual magic is going to be created.

Woosah!  Those were glorious messages for the week!

So gorgeous one, sending you big love, squeezes, warm cups of tea and a soothed soul.  

May your heart be full and your spirit light!  Try out the candle ritual and remember – You are loved, you are worthy and you are amazing!  

When Winter Softens: Imbolc, Rest & the Seeds of What’s Next, and a Gift.

· ·

Gorgeous Soul,

Hello, and happy February!

I have been quiet since Solstice as that was what my Soul asked me to do.

The world is very, very loud right now, so there were a few things I stepped back from – and the readings was one.

However, I didn’t step back from my amazing clients, playing in the Omen Days and creating, but the feeling of needing to cocoon was intense as has been the shedding (remember we are in the last few weeks of the year of the Snake!)

And I don’t know about you but the last two months have been shedding galore, physically, mentally, spiritually, materialistically – you name it! Talk about being pared down!

But think about Snake energy, this is the Shakti, the Divine Feminine in Kundalini, and as the Snake sheds it skin it moves with ease and grace out of the Old.

Which is where the energy of Imbolc comes in. 

So let’s explore the energies of this mid winter time, Imbolc. 

I have a glorious gift to support you at this time.  If you read on, you will understand why I created her for you.  

Imbolc was yesterday on Sunday, February 1st and marks the spot of mid-winter.  

The mid place between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox.  This time of year can feel rather heavy, grey and drab in many ways, but………

Imbolc marks the very first stirrings of new life.  It is a time of bitter weather and biting winds.  The days may have been growing longer since the Winter Solstice but it often seems like winter is now at its harshest.

The long cold nights of January often weary the spirits and fierce storms are common in February.  Yet look closely and glimmers of change can be found in the new buds on the trees and the green shoots of early spring flowers breaking through the frozen earth.  

Imbolc brings in the delicious energy which invites you to gently awaken and start planning your new seeds for the year.

And I want you to ask yourself  – what are your seeds going to be?

What is your Truth?  What do you Desire?  (This isn’t about what your mind says you “should do”, it’s about what your heart and soul are calling you to do).  Those are two powerful questions to ask yourself and then listen to the whispers that arise.  

I love the energy of Imbolc, it’s gentle, inviting and nurturing.  It’s a time of AWAKENING.

Not a TO DO Awaken, but a gentle stirring, a slight flexing and a big stretch. 

From the hibernation of Winter we oh so gently move into the hope of a spring to come, something new and delightful.  From the dark cocoon, we peek to see if things have changed.  

Imbolc’s invitation is to teach us how to hold both truths at once.

It doesn’t ask us to bloom. It asks us to prepare in the deep knowing that what is forced in Winter, grows fragile in Spring.

Spiritually, this is a time of new life coming into manifestation. We may only be seeing the tiniest hints of life above the surface but things are really beginning to stir in the darkness.

So come back to the questions – What is Your Truth?  What do you Desire?

At Imbolc, we’re beginning to really realise, something is shifting in our lives. 

Imbolc itself means “quickening in the belly”.  There is something shifting and changing.  

We are beginning to root a bit more into this year of 2026 with its delicious 1/10 energy and we are expanding in some way. (Whether you can see it or not – can’t you feel it, though?) And there is a lot of resistance that comes with big expansion.

There’s a whole lot of forces (internal and external) that want to keep you small. It’s scary to level up in your life – and there are really strong parts of us that don’t like that.

But this is the work of winter: Winter is where you integrate all your experiences from last year & it alchemizes into new life, new growth, new parts of you that will emerge in the weeks & months ahead.

Right now there’s a stretching & growing happening deep within you. (Even if you can’t see it, it’s there!) And that can be deeply uncomfortable. Depending on the shifts you’re making in your life, the resistance can be intense.

And it creates a conflict within you. This is where the question arises: do you have the strength & the courage to push through that resistance, to whatever’s on the other side? Or do you give in & lean back on old ways of operating?

This is the challenge and invitation at Imbolc.

If things feel hard for you right now, trust it’s because you are peeling back the layers.

You’re doing big work in your life (even if you can’t see it, yet) and you’re going to feel resistance to that.

At Imbolc, this is when the seeds of your life are created and planted….

So remember to take sweet, gentle care of yourself right now. Nurture yourself, nourish your spirit. And REST, sweet one. Just rest. We are still in winter. This is your most important work.

So to help you with your work I have a gift for you!

This is the Fabulous Imbolc guide, which I nicknamed Fi after my glorious big sister who hated winter!  I mean, HATED winter with a passion! 

She suffered from SAD and Depression and come December she would tank.  Her energy would drop, her mindset would go dark and there were some days that getting out of bed was a struggle.  

Yet ever so slowly, as the snowdrops would come and the days would start getting a bit longer, she would Awaken.  And it was a slow awakening.  Her energy would perk up and she could feel the growth stirring underground, the change and the hope.  

So I would like to give this gift to you for free, as I think with all the chaos that has been swirling around, we all need a little love and gentleness. 

Imbolc Blessings to you gorgeous one.  

May the sun shine on your face, your desires rise to the surface and the seeds that you dream into being flourish throughout the year.  

Okay, enough chuntering!

With Imbolc around the corner, when I went to the cards I grinned a huge grin as the gorgeous guides of The Faery Forest Oracle were adamant to join!  Now if these are new guides for you, please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to!

“Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle.  The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people.  May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.”

I have created a guided visualisation for you to really see this energy that is flooding in you, around you, towards you and through you.  If that doesn’t resonate then just Breathe.  Breathe into your toe nails, breathe into the roots of your hair, breathe in all the promises, the blessings and opportunities and sigh your exhale out, letting go of anything that feels a tad sticky or tacky.

When you are ready, invite your inner wise knowing to pick the card or cards that call to you.  

What whispers for you, what do you need to be aware of?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s take a breath and go have a look, shall we?

THE TRICKSTER

Let me be a reminder to be true to yourself, to your own personal truths, to the code within your soul.  Truly, at this time it is essential for you to let your conscience be your guide, and to live according to your own creed, with open eyes. 

Do not fool yourself into believing another person’s vision and ideas are more important than your own – question agendas, and be aware of people’s history. 

For at this time, there is one about you who is attempting to persuade you to their cause, to join them in what they see is a great task, but which in truth is simply a harnessing of your power to their agenda, which is not for your highest good.

All tricksters are charming and know exactly what to say to persuade you – but this is mere language.  Their deeds will not match their words, and what you are agreeing to by joining with them will be a loss of your own personal dreams for the furthering of theirs. 

If you allow yourself to be coerced, cajoled, and manipulated at this time, it will weigh heavily on your very soul.  

Be more wary than is natural for you at this time.  Do not betray yourself, or ignore the warning signs, which are all about you.  Do not foolishly give away your power, but exercise it, and weave a future that is truly the one you wish to create – one, which will provide you with honour, plenty, and the satisfaction of having been true to yourself. 

FAERY GODMOTHER

When the Faery Godmother comes to you, be aware that this is a time when you will discover what has been long hidden to you – your true self will be revealed in surprising ways every day, and sudden moments of heightened perception will make this time especially significant for you.

People finally get found out, manipulators can be seen through, true costs of circumstances are revealed, and any lies about you will be seen. 

This can be hard, but it is truly a hardship that is born of protection – you are safer for knowing in whom you can trust in order to make the right choices for your soul.

Throughout these revelations and insights will be a guiding hand – and this is the Faery Godmother.  She is showing you what it is you need to know in order to create and foster a life that works for you – and she is a protective force too.

So what you need will come to you, sometimes in strange ways.  Be mindful of counting your blessings at this time – for this is the energy your Faery Godmother can draw upon to keep transforming your life into one which is more abundant, magickal, meaningful, and joyful.  

Note every moment of truth – they are all significant, and you are better for discovering what was once hidden from you.

INITIATE

Your energy is unworldly, naive and unguarded – and you will therefore soon face tests which will help you acquire experience and wisdom.  You have an inclination to take risks without thinking of where the road you wish to dart down will lead you, you have a tendency to say and do many things without thinking through the possible impact.  

You speak the uncomfortable truth as no other can.  

The lessons you are experiencing are filling your life with richness – you have so much trust and self-belief, but you are not prideful.

You are ready to take great chances, and others may even judge you as being about to take crazy risks.  You may be contemplating leaving a safe job, about to travel, enter a new relationship wholeheartedly, or make a move in life without having examined all the consequences.

You are curious, enquiring, and open hearted.

You are inquisitive, but you are no fool.  You are an initiate, and you will therefore take risks as you face the unknown.

Your next steps into the mystery of life will be blessed, and you have the courage to now enter the unknown.  

Hmmm, breathe in, breathe out.  I don’t know about you but the guides picked these to help remember the light that surrounds you and is encouraging you to streeeeettttchh and grow, like the sprout coming from the glorious seed.  Awaken gorgeous one.  And if you feel inclined grab a copy of FI.

Keep cosy, laugh tons and make soup! (Always a good thing).  Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week.  

Last Reading of 2025 and Blessings for The Holiday Season.

· ·

Happy Last Reading of 2025.

I think we can all agree it has been a year, and here we are amidst the holiday season prep and doing.  

I do invite us all to remember that for some this season is most challenging, they may feel alone, have lost someone, feel overwhelmed or a myriad of other things.

As we just welcomed the Winter Solstice on Sunday, it opened the door into Winter for us.

And for those who asked if they can still join The Omen Days Journey, yes! 

Our amazing Solstice gathering was recorded and we start on December 26th.  So come join us all, it will change how you end the year!

I will keep the doors open until midnight of the 23rd. and then they close.

As I head into my Winter Break and walk the Omen Days Path.

This is a magical season full of transformation and deep internal work.

It may seem counterproductive to pause, rest, and reflect. 

However, remember that your worth isn’t defined by what you’ve accomplished. 

Slow down and be fully present in activities that truly bring you joy and pleasure. Before you know it, Spring will be here, so enjoy these quiet moments of rest and solitude.  

So why not create a to-do list for this Winter holiday that captures your inner child. 

What would you like to do to bring more holiday magic to the season?

With so many obligations during December, find time to slow down and read a book you enjoy. 

With the longer nights and colder days, it’s a perfect time to snuggle up and relax. 

Pick something purely for pleasure or a non-fiction book that can help you learn something new or change your perspective.

Spend time in reflection and creating the space for the next year (and no this is not a TO DO thing), that’s why we do The Omen Days (and yes, it doesn’t start until the 26th so you have time to join.)

This is about really looking at what nourishes your heart and soul at this time.  

Yes, there are some family obligations, but if spending 2 hours with Uncle Mervin makes you want to pull your hair out, then only spend an hour – and have boundaries!

Okay enough of me chuntering as we all have stuff to do!

Let’s crack on with the reading.  When I sat with all my lovely decks and asked who felt a strong urge to come support and guide us this week as we head into the dark and the shortest day I was tickled to see who hopped up. 

The glorious guides who were adamant are the Sacred Destiny Oracle.  So in case  you have never met them, let me introduce you – and if you have met them before, let me reintroduce you (as not to do so is rude!).  “You have a sacred destiny; we all do. 

There is a powerful and profound reason that you are here on the planet.  However, sometimes it may be difficult to understand what that reason is and perceive what is required on your journey into the future.  It may be a challenge to know what the next step in life should be.  This is the time to call upon the energy of nature and majesty of the natural world to provide answers to the heartfelt yearnings of your soul.  In ancient traditions, shamans, medicine women, witches, visionaries, and prophets all accessed hallowed knowledge by observing their natural environment. 

These wise beings stepped through mystic gateways into inner realms to bring back meaning to the seemingly random event of life. “

I seriously snorted tea out of my nose when they appeared.  Why?  Re-read the last two lines.  

Okay darling one.  Please take a moment to just relax.  Don’t worry about if the lights look great, or how you are going to deal with Uncle Tony at the Xmas dinner.  Just BE here NOW.  Take a massive deep breath out first through an open mouth.  Then allow your breathing to find its open delightful, rich rhythm and let your shoulders drop.  

As we have just lit the third candle of Advent, Joy, the candle of the animal world. 

Let me ask what does Joy feel like to you right now?  Is it elusive or is it permeating your being. 

Breathe.  

If you want to play with Joy a bit more I have a guided visualisation for you.

Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that tug.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

STAYING FOCUSED

Be clear about where you are going.  Do not compromise!

Follow your dreams; you deserve the best.  Prioritise your life.  

Once you decide on a direction, hold the course.  Do not veer.  Do what’s important, and release the rest.  Place your intent and passion on one thing, rather than scattering in many directions,and you will be successful.

On the path, it’s easy for the traveler to be distracted by people, events, and even shiny objects.  Do not take any side roads.  Stay the course.

Keep going, no matter what emerges on your path that distracts you.  It’s easy to get lost and forget where you’re heading.  Recommit yourself to your destination.

What you focus on is what you create, so put your attention on what is worthwhile, beautiful, and inspiring. 

Refrain from focusing on what’s not working: only focus on the direction you want to go.  

MIRACLES

Just around the bend, a miracle is waiting to happen.  

Release fear and uncertainty, and majestic wonders wait to unfold for you.  

Watch for them and embrace them.  Some come in an unlikely form.  Trust that all is unfolding for your highest good.  Expect miracles in your life.

What is expected tends to be realised.  The more you become aware of the small marvels in your life, the more you will grow in magnitude.  Celebrate and cherish them when they appear, no matter how small they may seem.

What others see as ordinary, you see as wondrous.  Look at your life in a new way.  Let go of fear and expectation, and allow the Goddess to solve your challenges in mysterious and wondrous ways.  

Don’t limit the way you think miracles can appear in your life.  All is well.

FARAWAY PLACES

Stop playing it safe.  

Get ready for new horizons and change in your life.  A journey is coming.  

It might be to foreign lands or faraway places, or may be an inner shift that changes your destiny.  It’s all beneficial.  Sometimes we can feel wobbled when we are not in our normal surroundings, however, you are safe and protected.  Good fortune ensues.

Part of the glory of travel is stepping out of old habits, routines, and the repetitiveness of everyday life.  It can feel daunting, yet in no small way your life is a spiritual voyage.  Change is coming.  Things are not as they seem. There are no wrong turns; every adventure and missed-venture is part of the course.  

You are on a pilgrimage of the soul.  Keep your metaphorical bag packed; some unexpected experiences are ahead.  Be ready for anything.  The joy of travel is that you can begin to experience the everyday as if you are seeing it for the first time.  

Nothing should be taken for granted.

Absolutely perfect!  How did that feel for you?  Wishing you a stupendous Holiday season.  Remember to play for goodness sakes and don’t get caught up in what you think it “should look like”, sending you massive warm hugs, big gingerbread kisses and golden light!  Talk to you in 2026.
