Bubble Release Ritual.

Bubble Release Ritual

This ritual is excellent for helping you embrace the themes of abundance and letting go during the Corn Moon. It’s also an excellent manifestation technique.

Using bubbles as part of your Corn Moon ritual infuses the celebration with lightness, playfulness, and the reminder that life’s moments are temporary.

Create Sacred Space

Gather your bubble-blowing materials and select an outdoor location with open space. Decorate the area with candles, lanterns, or natural elements like leaves and flowers. Ideally, perform the ritual when the Corn Moon’s light is most prominent.

Setting Intentions

Take a moment to reflect on your intentions for the ritual.

What aspects of your life do you want to release? What abundance do you wish to invite?

Release Intention

Hold your bubble wand or tool and take a deep breath. As you exhale, blow a bubble into the air. Visualize the bubble carrying away the intentions you want to release.

Watch as the bubble rises and eventually pops, symbolizing the act of letting go.

Abundance Intention

Now, dip your wand into the bubble solution again. As you blow a bubble this time, visualize it representing abundance and blessings flowing into your life.

Watch the bubble shimmer in the moonlight, representing the beauty of the abundance you invite into your life.

Repetition and Reflection

Continue blowing bubbles with released intentions and abundance intentions, alternating between the two. As you blow each bubble, let go of any attachment to the outcome and trust the flow of the universe.

After you’ve blown bubbles with your intentions and reflected on the symbolism, take a moment to stand in the moonlight.

Close your eyes and feel the energy of the Corn Moon surrounding you.

Express gratitude for the release and abundance you’ve invited into your life.

Virgo New Moon Ritual for Clarity, Health and Harmony.

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

The Virgo New Moon is the perfect time to reset your space, your habits, and your energy.

This year, the Virgo New Moon is this Saturday, August 23rd.

Step One: Light a Flame

Virgo energy loves creating order in the physical world and restoring health in our bodies, minds, and spirits.

This lunar gateway invites us to release clutter—both tangible and energetic—and create fresh patterns that truly support our wellbeing.

If you’ve been craving a sense of clarity, calm, and intentional structure, this ritual will help you align with Virgo’s healing energy and set the stage for a vibrant moon cycle ahead.

Begin by lighting a clean-burning candle in a central location of your home. As the flame flickers to life, take three slow breaths. With each inhale, invite in divine light; with each exhale, release all that no longer serves you.

Call on the Divine—whether you connect with God, Goddess, angels, guides, or the intelligence of the cosmos. Ask for assistance in creating order, harmony, and radiant health in your life. (If you can’t light a candle due to pets, children, or safety reasons, use an LED candle or simply visualize a golden flame glowing at the heart of your home.)

Step Two: Clear Physical Clutter with Intention

Choose a space—big or small—and begin clearing. Even 5 or 10 minutes makes a difference. As you tidy, declutter, or reorganize, repeat inwardly:

“As I clear my space, I clear my body, mind, and spirit. I release all that I no longer need and make way for clarity, health, and joy.”

Donate, recycle, discard, or simply reorganize items as you feel guided. Notice how the energy shifts as you move into the rhythm of clearing. This process is a ritual in itself—an offering to Virgo’s love of order and healing.

(Feel free to clean out just a small area, like your junk drawer or medicine cabinet. I personally will be focusing on my spice cupboard! As wowzer, it is chaos and I know I have duplicates!

Step Three: Cleanse the Energy of Your Home

Before beginning, open a window or two so the old energy has somewhere to go. Then, employ one or more of the following tools:

1. Selenite Wand

Cleanse your wand first by placing it in sunlight for a few minutes or passing it through sage or incense smoke. Walk counterclockwise through your space, gently waving the wand to absorb and neutralize stagnant energy.

2. Dried Sage Bundle or Palo Santo Stick

Light your sage bundle or Palo Santo stick so it smolders, not burns, and carry a dish or plate beneath it to catch any burning embers. Move counterclockwise through your home, letting the smoke waft through each room. Visualize heaviness lifting and dissolving. When you’re done, fully extinguish the bundle in water or by sealing it in a jar.

3. Rose Water

If you’ve cleared with selenite or herbs, now move clockwise as you mist, infusing the space with sweetness, love, and harmony. If you haven’t cleared with either tool, move counterclockwise with the spray to clear lingering heaviness. Visualize and intend that the air and energy in your home are filled with beauty, order, and peace.

4. Chime or Bell

Stand in the center of each room and ring your chime. Imagine the sound waves sweeping away residue, lifting the vibration, and filling the space with uplifting, sparkling energy.

Step Four: Anchor Your New Moon Intentions

Return to the candle or central location. Place your hands in prayer position at your heart, close your eyes, and breathe deeply.

Bring to mind your Virgo New Moon intentions—especially those related to health, clarity, order, organization, and healing. Feel these intentions as already true.

Feel the harmony, joy, and ease they bring.

Open your palms outward and imagine your intentions radiating through your home as golden light, blessing every room and every corner with fresh, vibrant energy.

Offer gratitude—for the moon, for your home, for the clarity you’re stepping into.

Extinguish the candle, knowing your ritual is complete.

Why This Virgo New Moon Ritual Works

Decluttering your home during the Virgo New Moon doesn’t just create physical order—it creates spiritual spaciousness.

Virgo’s energy helps us align small, everyday actions with greater purpose, so that even simple acts like tidying a drawer or misting with rose water become magical methods of summoning the life you desire.

When your space is clear and your energy is balanced, your intentions have fertile ground in which to grow.

Aquarius Full Moon Ritual: Shift Energy and Attract Your Desires

Jenny Heston · 1:11 pm ·

Step 1: Set the Space

Begin by switching your phone to “do not disturb.” Create an ambient, sacred atmosphere—dim the lights, light one or more candles, and perhaps burn some incense (safely) if that feels right to you. Whether you do this indoors or out, the goal is to create a space that feels soothing, magical, and receptive. Also make sure you have a little room to move.

Step 2: Clarify Your Intentions

On a piece of paper or in a journal, write down 1 to 5 goals, desires, or intentions. Write them in the present tense, as if they’re already true. For example:

I know exactly what I want to do about ______.

I am in a loving, joyful relationship with someone I adore.

I live in a beautiful home that supports me on every level.

I feel confident, clear, and aligned in my purpose.

I always attract money from both expected and unexpected sources.

Step 3: Create a Vibe-Driven Playlist

Sit comfortably. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and center yourself. Then, tune into the energy of the first intention you wrote down. Choose one song that reflects how you’ll feel when that desire is fully manifested.

Repeat until you have a song for each intention on your playlist.

Don’t overthink it—go with your instincts. Let the process be intuitive, spontaneous, and fun. Think of it like choosing theme songs for your future reality.

Step 4: Let the Music Move You

Put your playlist on—either in order or on shuffle—and let yourself move.

Feel the music enter your body. Let it vibrate through you. You don’t need to dance in any particular way. You might be in the mood to stretch on the floor, roll your shoulders, sway gently, or dance in a wild, joyful expression. Whatever feels natural is perfect.

Remember! This is not a performance. It’s a meditation.

As you move, feel yourself expanding into your intentions. Imagine your desires are already yours. Ask yourself: How does this feel? Then let your body dance the answer.

The key here is embodiment. You’re aligning your whole body’s energy with the vibration of what you want—because when you become a match for something, it can’t help but move toward you.

✦ Why This Works

Music is sacred geometry in motion. It’s an energetic tool that moves through your mind, body, and spirit to shake loose stagnant energy and create room for what you’re calling in. When you combine music with intention—especially under a visionary Aquarius moon—you’re amplifying your manifestation power.

And with Chiron retrograde supporting deep inner healing, and Mars in Libra helping you act with harmony and grace, this ritual can help you release what’s holding you back and call in what truly lights you up.

Enjoy! And share in the comments if you tried it or tweaked it.

Woven Together –

Jenny Heston · 1:11 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Misty, Mischievous, Magnetic, Manifesting Monday!

Hello my darling, darling – can you believe it is the last Monday of July!

This is going to be the last reading until September as in August I am immersed in ceremony and ritual, writing and teaching and cooking up amazing offerings in my alchemist cauldron.

But I will be back! (Yes that is a threat lol).

In a chaotic world that continually tries to convince us that we are divided and not connected I had a huge smack in the face this weekend of how wrong and patriarchal that is!

On Saturday I had the honour of leading a gorgeous Blessing Way ceremony for my dear friend Verity who is about to become a mumma.

This is a glorious ceremony and celebration filled with ritual, depth and is honouring the Divine Feminine and the transition into motherhood – honouring the mumma.

Bringing us back to our roots!

This is a sacred celebration that crosses cultures and has been around for thousands of years thus is rich with wisdom, potency and magick, and each ceremony is specially crafted for the mumma to be to support them during labour and to welcome in a gorgeous new soul into the world.

As I was setting up for the ceremony on Saturday in my sanctuary garden (as that is where Verity chose), one of the themes was the weaving together of all the women that would be attending and the plant allies lavender and rose.

I had made lavender lemonade, lavender shortbread cookies as part of the nibbles, and woven lavender posies and lavender oatmeal bath bags as gifts for everyone who was attending.

Then it hit me – lavender!

My sister loved, loved lavender and would have it with her all the time. For me it is Rose, I have it with me all the time!

Today (Monday) is my sister’s birthday and on this day 6 years ago my brother in law and I had the honour of bathing her in a bath with lavender and helping her pick out the outfit she wanted to wear as 4 of her treasured friends were going to come and celebrate her birthday at the Hospice with her for an hour in the afternoon.

After getting dressed she said she would have a little nap before everyone got there and she snuggled down on her bed in a room that I had filled with sunflowers, lavender and roses and that was the last time she was fully conscious. She died 3 days later.

My brother in law (who lives in the UK) had phoned and left me a lovely long voice message on Saturday about how he wanted to get more lavender plants and put them in the garden as they reminded him of Fi and how he wanted one of the Hansa Roses (that are my favourite as their smell is divine) to sit in the middle of them.

Wowzer, wowzer, talk about all the threads that weave us together.

Birth and Death.

Celebration and Grief.

Scents and Memories.

Heart and Hands.

What connects us is often unseen—woven in story, memory, and heart.

So if you ever feel that you are alone and that you are out there on your own – please remember that you aren’t.

In the spaces between words, hands, and moments—we find the fabric of belonging.

I will say the Blessing Way was epic, beautiful, raw and real and hummingbirds and dragonflies came to play with all of us as we were surrounded by the green of my magickal sanctuary.

And today, I am going to play with lavender and make a glorious cake in honour of my most amazing sister that I love dearly.

Okay, enough chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading.

When I went to my delicious guides and asked who wanted to come and play.

These lovely guides came in loud and proud! If they are new to you, please let me introduce you.

“As above, so below. As within, so without. Today, many of us seek to reclaim the sense of connectedness that existed universally in ancient cultures, when human fate was wholly entwined with nature.

The world was seen as a symbiotic entity in which all living organisms interacted and supported each other, from the innermost cellular level to the outermost cosmological level. An essential bridge is being rebuilt between humans and nature, allowing us to access the realm of the transcendent and the land of the luminous.

Herbalism is the medicine of belonging, a gateway through which we keep alive a very sacred aspect to our source. “

With all that being shared, let’s drop in shall we? Take a delicious breath and invite in the energy of endings, as when there is an ending there is a new beginning.

What needs to just gently drop away (no drama), so that something new can grow?

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

REISHI

Retreat

Called lingzhi in Chinese, Reishi represents immortality and is considered the “herb of spiritual potency,” meaning success, well-being, divine power, and longevity.

Said to have been discovered in 396 BC in the Changbai Mountains of China by Taoist monks, it is one of the oldest mushrooms used in medicine. It has long been called an anti-aging mushroom and powerful Shen tonic, a category of medicines that “nourish the spirit.”

Reishi powerfully influences our main spiritual centres: the endocrine, nervous, and hormonal systems. Hormones powerfully impact our perception, mood, sleep-wake cycles, ability to bond with others, and awareness of reality. They activate the nervous system, which is also directly related to igniting mystical experiences.

Reishi is ruled by Jupiter, the “guru of planets,” the one that dictates how we derive wisdom and access to the mysteries of life.

Reishi is inviting you to Pause. It’s time for renewal.

If you feel overwhelmed or mentally overloaded, it’s time to retreat. Take the time to recuperate and recharge, and personal growth will follow. Overstimulation and indecision lead to a sense of weakness, imprisonment, and a feeling that you are evading death.

Like Bear, hibernate or rest before you take on the next project or challenge.

Many Native American tribes have called this space of inner contemplation the Dream Lodge, a place to witness death and see beyond the confines of physical reality by visiting the dreamtime.

Create the space to be in silence and calm the internal chatter. Take time for reflection and nurturing yourself (and we all have that time).

MITRAGYNIA

Shape Shifting

The Indigenous peoples of Southeast Asia have valued the power of this rainforest tree for thousands of years and have used it as a poultice to treat wounds, as well as treatment for a variety of symptoms, including stress, pain, fatigue and fever.

Like Coca leaves in the South American highlands, fresh leaves from the Mitragynia tree are chewed for energy and stamina throughout the day.

Mitragynia was revered among monks in Asia, as it assisted them during long periods of meditation by providing focused attention and positive energy.

Mitragynia embodies elements of both Saturn and Neptune, as it profoundly relieves and decompresses the musculoskeletal system, while granting a freeing and euphoric feeling to the body-mind.

Used in the right amounts, it can greatly assist those with addiction (Neptune).

The balanced side of Mitragynia represents the ability to shapeshift and adapt across realities.

Like the Dragonfly, Mitragynia grants us the power to break through the illusionary facade we often accept as reality, providing us the freedom from pain in order to break through limiting illusions.

Dragonflies, like Mitragynia, help us initiate subconscious healing from the trauma experienced from endless cycles of pain and suffering.

Dragonfly medicine invites us to seek out the parts of our habits that have gone unchanged, unnoticed, and stagnant.

Ask yourself, have I tended to the changes I’ve been wanting to make?

Don’t get lost in the labyrinths of self-doubt.

Break free from illusive belief systems that hold back your transformation.

ANGEL’S TRUMPET

Death

Angel’s Trumpets have an intoxicating scent and flowers that resemble angelic horns aimed downward, symbolising the call of the angels to humanity.

Plants in the Brugmansia genus and relatives like Daturas have a rich history of use among shamans and magic practitioners, even though they are poisonous.

Some South American Indigenous groups, like the Kamsa, Jivaro, and Ingano, initiate their children at a young age into the path of curanderismo – becoming a healer – by ingesting Angel’s Trumpet during a flower ceremony.

Jivaro boys who walk the shamanic path are given the medicine at the age of six to acquire an external-vision-producing soul that lets them communicate with ancestors called arutam wakani.

Angel’s Trumpet is ruled by Pluto and Mars.

Angel’s Trumpet signals a time of catharsis or death.

A deep emotional breakdown is due or near. You may feel lost in your own emotional despair, depression, shame, or unworthiness, but now the angels of discernment and darkness are here to support you.

Coming eye to eye with the darkest feelings within yourself catalyses the greatest awakening. Deeply pause, let go of control, and witness the broken pieces within yourself with loving awareness.

The medicine of the Bat symbolises the need for a ritualistic death of relations, situations, or aspects of life.

Bat, like Angel’s Trumpet, signals catharsis and rebirth, signalling literal or metaphysical death of old patterns and worn out habits.

Understand that you can reconstruct at any time, create something new, deeper, richer and more in alignment, regardless of how shattered you feel.

Wowzer! Love these messages and they tie into the monthly energy (and you seriously can’t make this shit up!)

Wishing you a stupendous week filled with ease, grace and health. See you in September! Big hugs and squeezes!

Simplicity and The Leo New Moon.

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Musical, Muscular, Moony, Manifesting Monday!

Sorry there was no reading last week, but I retore my quad again and I will say – I was fucking foul!

Thus, when my guides and I had a chat about the reading they laughed at me and advised me I was too toxic to share with others (rude!)

I have had a lot of conversations over the last few weeks with clients and friends about “Simplicity”, peeling away all the superficial artifices and really tapping into values, beliefs, creativity and living in a much simpler, more authentic way of life.

A more aligned way of living. Aligned with our heart and soul.

We get so conditioned that we have to do things a certain way and we “should” (frigging hate that word), have these things and be this way. But why if it doesn’t bring us joy?

What if we spent more time remembering to play, to pause and to be real with all facets of ourselves?

That is the energy of this gorgeous New Moon in Leo this week.

“The Leo New Moon on July 24, 2025, is our invitation to stop overcomplicating things.

With the Lion as our spirit guide, we’re being called back to simplicity. This is a time to bring ease into our lives.

It’s a time to remember who you are when you stop trying so hard to be everything to everyone. It’s a time to embrace your inner Lion and the strength, confidence, and presence it commands.

Both Pluto and Eris will be stirring tension under this New Moon, inviting challenges around power and control, but there is a breakthrough on offer if we are willing to let go and invite simplicity.

Leo energy is about heart, courage, and authenticity. There’s nothing small about Leo. Yet, contrary to the drama and grandeur often associated with this sign, the highest vibration of Leo is simplicity. Like the lion, who doesn’t try to prove its power, we are being asked to strip back the noise and return to what’s real and essential.

With so much energy around control and power dynamics stirring under this New Moon, we are being called to look at how we may be micromanaging our situations, routines, habits, relationships, or even our spiritual practice. This Moon reminds us that the more we try to grip, the more we lose our freedom and the further out of alignment we travel.

If we think of the Lion, we can see there is a quiet confidence in simplicity. No need to prove, push, or perfect, just being is enough. This is the heart of Leo wisdom, and tapping into this can help us navigate the harsher energies of this New Moon.”

So how can you Simplify things right now?

What needs to be pruned or put to the side?

I like to think of Simplifying as gardening.

In other words, there are things that are growing in my garden that shouldn’t really be there as they are crowding out all the things that were planted with purpose.

So I gently pull them out, give them a blessing and toss them in the compost!

Life is the same.

And on that note let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

Thus my gorgeous one, take a moment. Just let your breath naturally slow down, relax your shoulders and jaw. As you start to relax I invite you to see in your mind’s eye the energy of Simplicity and the power of the Lion. What do you want to keep? What do you want to release? If you need a little more support dropping into that energy I have a lovely little guided visualisation for you.

Then, when you’re ready, pick the card or cards that make you tingle and get curious.

Did you remember to pick?

Then let’s go have a good gander shall we?

LITTLE OWLYN

Wisdom is not heavy, harsh, or cruelly given. Wisdom is as simple as being open and ready to receive – and if you are ready, if you have decided that you are worthy and willing to learn, this great horned owl, my other self, wishes for me to give you a feather.

This feather is a talisman of magick, of wisdom that endures and can be applied again and again. Its power and wisdom will never run dry or fail to speak words of wisdom to you when you hold it in your mind’s eye. The tide will go in and out, but this featherlight piece of wisdom remains with the golden sun, and this wisdom will never fade or grow into a heavy burden, as some knowledge does.

You will wonder what to do at times, because things have changed. But this soft wisdom will speak to you again, and you will find your way. Wisdom is not heavy, crushing, or forceful. This is the truth – this wisdom is soft, light, and to be treasured. It is our gift to you now. Stay still. Give us your hand. And feel the gift that we wish to share with you. Feel the wisdom flow into you. Ahhhhh, lightness.

You will be able now to see more clearly, even when there is no light around you. Night will hold no fears for you. You will hear clearly what people are truly saying when they are speaking with you – their words’ true meanings will be utterly apparent immediately. You will be able to move suddenly and grasp your fate quickly when this helpful being comes to share your life – she is both faery and owl, a shapeshifter in form, and as swift and clear as the rain.

BROTHER RACCOON

Raccoons speak of stealth, remaining undercover, and flying under the radar. Raccoons suggest you take cover, work with camouflage, and stay in the in-between places for a time in order to remain safe. Do not reveal who you are, what you do, or your new idea or project to all. Too often we share what we are planning out loud, giving all, even ourselves, the impression it is already done. It is not.

It needs careful protection, but mostly you need to not draw attention. It does not mean you have to be furtive or sneaky, though some will call it so. It means to quietly get on with your day-to-day and the very soulful business of change without showing everyone every detail along the way. You have far to go – at this early stage it is not advisable to share all. There is a sacred part of you that must be protected, for it could easily be exhausted and exploited by those who will be very quick – even quicker than you – to recognise the value of what you have.

In order to survive, sometimes you must hide, camouflage, or mask yourself from those who would know our true nature and exploit you. Like a precious plant when snow falls, you must go underground, huddle in your seed, and keep quiet and safe from those who would take you and cultivate you and your amazing self for their own reasons.

This is not a time to allow yourself to be used by others for their own agendas.

Do not think of this hiding or melting into the forest as cowardice; it is wise to go to ground for a time now. In order for you, your ancestry, your bloodline, and anything cherished and rare to live on, you sometimes must hide it away for a time, bringing it forward later so that you flourish.

ORCA MAGICK

Orcas are the brilliant, physical, living reservoirs of Earth and galactic history. They are the carriers of wizards on their backs, according to Norse myth, meaning they carry the great sage lines of transformation and transmutation, and can pass this lore along.

They hold this history in the patterns of their ancient songs.

One day we will translate the songs and understand our own past times. Their bodies, those huge, resonating cavities, store the history of the planet herself. They travel the world’s oceans, singing, clearing, and awakening the energy grid again and again, preserving, reviving, renewing ancestral lines that need to be in place for this planet to be whole and well, now and in the future.

Earth is currently undergoing a vast initiation. Some have called this an ascension, although what it truly is has nothing to do with high or low, but with an integration of more dimensions, fully awakening your DNA and charging your auric field to a more powerful capacity. Healing, materialising into new forms, and creating will be greatly enhanced at this time.

You are a keeper of galactic mysteries and you have a strong starperson connection. Starpeople are connected to the growing need to connect to the galactic web, which we are a vital part of. It is time to take yourself outside and gaze up into the night sky. Learn about the constellations you can view from your home. Tune in to the worlds beyond this world, and ask that they connect with you in healthful ways.

Whales can assist with intergalactic travel (without physically leaving the planet), seal and repair any wounds or tears in your energy field, and return to you the parts of your soul that you may be unaware are even missing.

Wow, wow, wow. What gorgeous guides to help us with this glorious New Moon. Sending you massive hugs and squeezes. Be gentle with yourself and take the time to peel back the stuff that you’ve taken on without realising it.
