Deepen into the May Energy and let’s talk about Mother’s Day.

· ·

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

How are you delicious lovely?  How was your Beltane experience?

I made a lovely offering to the Fae of crystals, sunflower seeds, red wine and shiny coins.  I noticed a good chunk of the red wine was gone the next morning.  

So either there were some tippled faeries flying around or a tipsy racoon!

Okay my darlings, we have lots to natter about this week.  We have the Full Flower Moon, a big shift in May energy and of course Mothers Day all coming up this week.  

So grab a cuppa and get settled.

On Beltane I did a glorious ritual and really tapped into the intuitive energy of this month of May, as every May has a different energy. 

 For example last year was about Mental Clarity and Inspiration, this month the word that came to mind is Deepening.

The image I was shown was the ocean, that deep unknown that we play in, go to, feel the pull of the tides, but we don’t fully “know”.  

The Deepening energy of May asks us to really root into who we are, what we want and why we want it.  What are we here to share?  What are we here to learn?

It’s as if we are standing at a cliff edge looking at the ocean and being called to get closer, to really Deepen with a glorious warm Benevolence that wraps us up in a glorious blanket.  

The ultimate question of course is – are you willing?

When we live in a fast paced world being bombarded with all sorts of drama our nervous system can go into a fight/flight/freeze/fawn – so this is where Deepening comes in.  

Think of Deepening as a delicious Tend and Befriending of your core self, where you meet yourself exactly where you are – without the judgements or complaints.

After I had that download, the next day I went to the Ocean early in the morning, took Fearghus the swimming dog and walked.  Walked, threw sticks and watched Fearghus bring in the present moment.  The joy, the waves, the embracing exactly this moment.  

As I walked and dropped into that space I asked myself these questions – which I invite you to try.

How can I create a cycle of nourishment in my own life? 

How can I bring balance to the flow of giving and receiving?

What does it feel like to meet myself exactly where I am with no judgement?

Creating this harmony really begins with me and my inner state of being, and am I willing?

I found a glorious wee starfish who had been left on the rocks, and rescued and tossed him back.   And then the most amazing Raven kept coming closer and closer as I was about to leave and was only 10 inches away.

Deepening.  That is the invitation for May, and if you don’t have an ocean nearby, go to a river, a waterfall, a moving body of water!  Let me know how that feels for you.  

Sunday the 11th brings in Mother’s Day, and for me personally, it’s irrelevant if you have birthed children or not.  As we have all at some point in time nurtured, mentored, supported a child – whether they were ours or not.

I will be honest, I have learned so much from my five children – they have taught me amazing lessons, given me a lot of angst, and helped me to grow up.

I also realise that Mother’s Day can be challenging for some as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, grief, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more. 

This will be the first Mother’s Day that I don’t go grab a ton of dirt, plants and planters and create amazing pots of flowers for my Mothership.  It feels very strange so I’m allowing it to be what it is.  

So remember:-

“Let everything that needs to go, go.  Let everything that needs to come, come. “

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

So gorgeous one, breathe.  Just breathe, BE and allow yourself to relax, your mind to calm, your breath to slow and ask your wise inner self – what do I need to know this week.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at your heartstrings – don’t let your mind pick!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell.  This is very special. 

A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place.  Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen.  You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers.  You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart.  Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.  

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

SHAMAN OF SKULLS

In your heart, you have been asking for something different, something more, and the Universe is answering your prayers. 

You don’t need to be afraid of the changes happening, or that are going to happen, for you.  They are part of that answer from the Universe!  You might feel uncertain because you cannot see how it is going to all work out – but know that the Universe is caring for you, and will provide a way to move through the transition with grace.  

You are not crazy to willingly enter this experience.  There is nothing that you need avoid, and so much that you will gain.  

Something is ending.  Something that has meant a lot to you.  Maybe it is a relationship, a phase of your life, and identity that no longer suits you.  Maybe it is an inner ending that you can’t quite articulate, but you feel nonetheless.  This is a symbolic death with a greater purpose.  

The shaman is spiritually trained to overcome the fear of symbolic death and, instead of avoiding endings, to willingly go through them with the awareness that an ending is simply the other side of a beginning.  The shaman learns that endings happen when something new wishes to be born.  

Be patient with yourself, be kind, but also know that new life is happening for you now according to a higher purpose and loving plan.  Your life is meant to change at this time.  Be encouraged!  From the ashes of this symbolic death, you shall rise again.  

FINCH SPIRIT GUIDE

Finch Spirit Guide comes to you with guidance to care for yourself in a particular way.

Finches can become beautifully coloured, but only when they eat foods that nourish them. They have the power of beauty within, but they need the correct nourishment to be able to transform that potential into expression.

You also have beautiful divine potential to shine your light and beauty in the world, but you must feed your soul what it needs to do this. Be respectful and loving to yourself as you choose what to take into your being – be it physical nourishment or emotional energy or even the kinds of books you read and entertainment you watch, for all has an impact on you.

Do you feel better for the experience? Does it nourish your soul?

The best growth-enhancing food for your soul is that which increases love. 

Finch Spirit Guide also brings a prediction of a celebration of happiness ahead of you – and wants you to know that your connection to the spiritual worlds is real, to trust in the messages you feel from the Universe as they make themselves known in your heart.

It’s a good time to experiment with how to best care for your mind, body and soul. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about finding what works best for you. You are in a phase of your life where giving back to yourself is important.

Perhaps you have been sharing a lot of yourself with others, have come through a challenging time or, in the near future, will be stepping up in a new way to share more creative energy and soul fire than ever before.

All that you need to know now is that it is the right time to take extra special care of you.

Gorgeous one, wishing you a stupendous week, month of Deepening if you are willing. Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!

Blood Moon Eclipse in Virgo, Mercury is about to go Retrograde, Resilience and Spring Equinox! Phew!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Moodling, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

I don’t know about you but the Spring Equinox and Eclipse energy are fully ramping up! 

My dreams have been rather odd (cool, but odd) and my brain and body are making me really look at the seeds that I am intentionally planting, both figuratively and literally.

This week we get the glorious Virgo Blood Moon Eclipse on March 14th!  

This is the first eclipse of the year and the season.  

This is the perfect opportunity to assess, reflect and leave behind anything that is disturbing your balance or preventing you from achieving true harmony.

Now remember, eclipses uncover hidden emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and habits.  

They bring to the surface the bits and bobs we have been either trying to stuff into an already over cramped closet, or have continually swept under a rug (and we wonder why the rug has a bump in the middle!)

So if you have been feeling agitated, emotional or as I like to refer to it – “itchy, twitchy and bitchy”, I’m not surprised.  

With this being a Full Moon Eclipse.  Imagine the energy of a Full Moon intensified by 100, that is the energy this brings.  The releasing of a full moon, the uncovering of an eclipse and the deep, deep emotions of Virgo.  

“With the Blood Moon in Virgo, we are invited to step into some of this Virgo consciousness and to remember that within us too, flows a river of wisdom, strength, and wholeness. 

We are invited to connect with our inner being and to recognize that we have the power within to navigate whatever situation we may find ourselves in.

Returning to our own inner strength and intuition is going to be a powerful way to navigate this Eclipse energy. 

Remember that we too, are an extension of God/Goddess and connected to all of the Universe. We are far more powerful than we have ever been led to believe.”

Then on March 15th Mercury goes retrograde.  

Now instead of buying into the bad rap that Mercury retrograde gets, I invite you to weave it with the heart energy of this month, the blood moon eclipse energy and Equinox energy.

Take some time to slow down and re-lease, re-assess, re-imagine, re-create and re-member who the heck you are and what you want and why you want it.

(We are focusing on that in Flourish right now!)

Spring Equinox arrives in the Northern Hemisphere on March 20th. 

Ostara (Spring Equinox) is that delicious place of change.  

March has that energy of transition, caught between winter’s grasp and spring’s open arms.  

The Equinox brings the time when light is perfectly balanced with the darkness.  

It’s the time to re-lease the hold of winter and start planting your seeds of intention!  This is a supremely powerful time to work with Mumma Nature’s energy.

Which all ties into the energy of this Month, the Full Blood Moon and how to step into our resilience.

And again, as I said – I have created a super yummy offering called Rooted in Resiliency, that you can do at your own pace with a community to share ideas with and that will be coming out next week along with more information on the Spring Equinox.

Okay, with all that being said – 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.  Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to).  

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth.  Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world.  We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK.  

Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense.  She wants so much more for you.  She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny.  She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart.  She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you.  

You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true.  There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed.  Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity.  She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “ 

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ON YOUR OWN TERMS

You are not the person you once were.  You know it, but others might not always be ready to let the old you go so easily.  Do not allow yourself to be shoved back into patterns of behaviour that are not true to who you are now.  You have worked hard to grow and become this new self.  Believe that she is more real than the old you, even if she is less familiar to others (and maybe even to you) at this stage.

All that will change, and what is new now will become familiar and easy for you to sustain in the near future.  Be stubborn in a good way whilst you – and others around you – come to realise that the new you is the real you.  

Others may offer their input, but when it comes down to it, it is you alone making your life decisions.  Your choice may once have been to meet the expectations and honour the opinions of other people – but you are aware now that the best choices for you actually honour your own heart, irrespective of whether others understand your reasons or feelings.

You might have to practice not feeling guilty or selfish about choosing to live your life in the way that suits your soul.  You might have to be patient with those around you who need some time to get out of the habit of expecting you to do as you are told.  It may take some time for them to adjust to the way you are now, behaving and thinking based on your own inner guidance.

You now know that you don’t have to wait for permission.  You get to choose how you want to feel, how you want to live, and who you want to be.  You’re ready for the responsibility and sweet reward of living your life on your own terms.  

WARRIOR GODDESS

This is not a time to play it safe, nor is it time to allow another to take the lead in your life.  You need to believe in yourself and trust that the instincts guiding you are correct.  If you need to take action, do it.  Speak up: say yes; say no.  Trust your inner truth completely.

Be bold.  

The Universe will answer your boldest actions with affirmation, and you’ll move through the consequences of your actions with grace and courage, ending up exactly where you are meant to be.

You are ready.  Life has been preparing you.  Your experiences have made you stronger and wiser.  You have spirit and you have courage.  Believe in yourself!  You are a Warrior Goddess, and empowered, divine woman.

Trust that your foundations are strong.  Put your faith in the Universe.  It has been your life coach and guide all along, helping you build up your inner resources, encouraging you to realise the power that has always been within you.

The Universe believes in you.

When you feel it is time to take a step, take it with confidence.  When you ask for help from the Universe, ask with boldness and total confidence that your prayers will be answered in the best possible way.  You have the right to require that your personal space be respected.  You have divine permission and encouragement to claim your rightful place in the world.  You are meant to say no to behaviour that is dishonest, manipulative and bullying.

The warrior goddess uses her sacred anger to set a boundary and speak her truth, not to attack another.  She uses her inner fire to live with integrity, even if the right choices for her seem hard or frightening at the time.  She knows that the Universe has her back, so she is willing to be true to herself no matter what.  

She places integrity above all else.  She knows that compromising her self-respect to win a battle will end up losing her the war.  

YOU ARE THE LIGHT

You are going through a spiritual initiation.  This is happening because you are ready for it, even if it doesn’t always feel that way.  The way to pass this test is to rely on the light within you.  Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead.

Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead.  Don’t give in to despair or believe that things will not work out.  You are learning to trust that the Universe knows what it is doing.  There are great and beautiful things meant for you, and no matter what appears to be right now, they will come to you in the perfect way and at the perfect time.

Light is powerful.  Some people don’t understand this.  The fear in their hearts makes them cynical.  That fear stops them from seeing what is true.  In the absence of truth, they hold on to their judgements instead.  They scoff at what they don’t understand.  Be careful of allowing such people to influence you.  

It’s not wise to take advice from people who are investing in creating pain.  You can have compassion for them, but you must not underestimate how their negativity can taint your trust in the Universe.  When we feel the light within us, when we trust in it, we are able to move beyond the fear and negativity that exists in this world.  You have it within you to be that light.

The only thing that can trap you is the choice to believe in the negative and give in to the fear.  

That’s not you, so don’t choose that for yourself.  Don’t listen to people who would cause you to question the light.  The light within you is the real you.  

Be at peace, beautiful one, for the positive power of the light in you is stronger than any darkness.    Keep your faith in the light.  All will be well.  

Holy Hannah, you seriously can not make this shit up! Releasing old patterns, being bold and being the light.  Now more than ever we all need that!  So delicious lovely, I wish for you a fabulous week filled with ease, joy and deep belly chortles.  May you always remember how special and important you are and that the world needs YOU!  Big hugs and squeezes. 

See you next week where we dive into Ostara and Rooted in Resiliency.  

New Moon in Pisces and the Coldest Night of the Year.

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

(Yes, I know, I know – I just love how it sounds at the moment!)

We are coming to the close of February, holy hannah, another whizz bang month it feels like with a lot of turmoil and chaos swirling in the collective!

In fact it is the last Monday of February, can you believe it! And in usual Mumma Nature style the weather has gone bonkers!  Winds of 90 km/hr have been sweeping through over and over, and atmospheric rivers galore! 

In other words it is frigging breezy and wet (so please don’t tell me there is no such thing as global warming!)

Which made me think that it’s appropriate that across many communities nationally, February 25th is The Coldest Night of The Year Walk.  

This walk started in 2011 to raise funds and awareness  around homelessness (and I loathe the phrase “unhoused”) and poverty.  

The funds all go to a local charity that is on the streets and helps to fund food, clothes, support and programmes for a very vulnerable part of our communities.  

Having spent my Valentine’s Day wandering through various tent housing, sharing little love packages of gorgeous cookies, and listening to some very intense stories, I am so proud that we walk to acknowledge what we see, hear and witness.

There is no turning a blind eye and dismissing with judgement.

It reminds me how fucking blessed I am.  How blessed most of us are!

With the intense winds that can literally blow me over and the torrential rain, when I’m out with the doggos it feels challenging, but I know that I have a warm home to go back to.  I can turn on the kettle and make a nice cuppa and my clothes if wet, I can change.  

But, what if all you have is a tarp and a concrete sidewalk?  

What if there is no way to get warm and dry, let alone open your fridge or cupboard to select something to eat?

For many of us, if we go outside and it’s too cold or wet, we go back into the warmth.

Life holds no 100% guarantees at all, other than you are born, you die.  And having listened to a wee couple in their 80s on Valentines that had been on the street for just over a month due to the landlord tripling their rent………..   

It made my heart sad.  

So remember, we are part of a collective (whether you recognise it or not).  Smile at someone, take a moment to talk, offer what you can – even if it is only time.  

But we are all interconnected and it’s important to be aware of that.

Okay, now I will get off my soapbox!  Lol.  

“The Pisces New Moon on February 27th brings the last lunar cycle of the astrological year and our official entrance into Eclipse Season.

Needless to say, this February New Moon will be an impactful one and will open a portal into one of the most transformative points of the year.”

This New Moon asks us to show up as our authentic selves and trust in the innate wisdom that lives within.

What do you do best? What are your gifts and talents? Take time to celebrate your skills and all you have mastered. Acknowledge where your gifts and talents lie- and don’t say you don’t have any!

We all have things we are innately good at. So, forget societal expectations and limitations, and go deeper. Reflecting on these is a good way to inspire conscious action under the New Moon.

So with both of those things to perk, how blessed you are and the New Moon let’s crack on with the reading.

These are glorious new guides and they were adamant they wanted to come play.

They bring the full energy of the Divine Mother, Mother Mary, the Divine Feminine – you name it and they most certainly have a lot to share.

So darling one, just take a moment.  Take a moment to count your blessings, take a moment to understand that you are fully interconnected (even with the people you judge and don’t like).  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!

Sending you huge blessings and love as we close the month of February down.  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.

Welcome to 2025, and Today’s Wolf Moon!

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

We are slowly, quietly, calmly entering into 2025, and all that it portends! 

How are you most delicious lovely?  It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a few weeks!  And I will say I spent those couple of weeks facilitating The Omen Days (which is such a glorious way to enter a new year), and all the amazing women who participated really blew my hair back!

Welcome to 2025.  

I would love to tell you this will be a gentle year, but it’s going to be intense!

While our numerology points to a year of endings, astrologically, we are shown that all endings pave the way for new beginnings.  

As in 2025, we remarkably have four major planets and the lunar nodes changing signs. It is incredibly rare to have so many planets changing signs in one year, so this definitely makes 2025 stand out!

Also, remember we enter the Year of the Snake on January 29th, and if we look at the Snake it is continually shedding the old to make way for the new…..

Thus, instead of spending pages going through the above (as those of you who have signed up for Opening The Doors on 2025 will receive), let’s talk about today’s Full Moon.

Beneath the Full Moon of January 2025, something magical stirs and whispers secrets of old. The Wolf Moon brings a luminous and mysterious energy as it lights up the sky. 

January’s Full Moon meaning reminds us of our connection with the wild spirit of wolves.

The Full Wolf Moon occurs on January 13th, 2025, reaching its peak at 5:27 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

January gets its name from Janus, the Roman god of all beginnings. 

Janus is often depicted with two faces, one looking to the past and the other to the future. This makes January the perfect month for reflection and fresh starts. 

Which is why we are starting Flourish on January 18th!

If you have been sitting on the fence, there are only two spots left and you won’t regret gifting one to yourself!

As the New Year dawns, the world remains cocooned in darkness during these short, fleeting days. 

Yet, we’re hopeful as we nestle in our homes during these cozy, chilly nights. 

The Wolf Moon is a time for rituals involving inner strength, protection, and connecting with Winter’s wisdom.

There are so many rituals to do at this Moon Time that connect you to your inner strength and Winter’s Wisdom.

A simple one to do is go Howl at the Moon.

In a place where you feel comfortable, stand with your feet apart and your hands on your hips in your best superhero pose (Grey’s Anatomy fans will know what I’m talking about). Studies (like this one from Harvard) have shown that if you maintain this position for five minutes, you will perform better at a difficult task. It also helps build confidence.

However, why stop there? Think of a negative feeling or stressful situation that’s burdened you. Now, while maintaining your superhero pose, give a few big howls. Imagine that worry and negativity leaving your body. In its place is nothing but tranquil energy and peace.

This can be a wonderful way to release tension, anxiety, or heavy emotions. I mean, at minimum, it’s a big mood booster.

I’ve also created some fabulous Journal prompts to help you dig a bit deeper.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that flew out and at me this week  are the amazing Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh my soxs off – as with all the energies swirling and the bizarre weather patterns that are happening, the world does feel like that right now.

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

“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 (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us  moments earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

Thus, I invite you to breathe and just BE with your gorgeous self here at this moment.  Take a few lovely, rich, nourishing breaths and let the cares of the moment slide off like wee little raindrops.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

If you need some help and support releasing the “shoulds”, the weight of energy around you I have a lovely guided visualisation for you.  It’s fun, we are going on a yomp and an explore!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s Go See Shall We?

JOKER IS WILD

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense.  It is laughing with you, not at you.  You’ll see this for yourself as the Joker weaves her magic in your life, bringing you the grace that is beyond all reason, the necessary ingredient to ensure you win with the hand you have been dealt by life.  

There’s nothing impossible when the Joker appears.  Her wild ways can transform a losing streak into a lifelong love affair with Lady Luck.

Strap yourself in and prepare for the ride of a lifetime.  The Joker has come to you and the Joker is wild.  Unpredictable and brilliant, she brings you a message.  

You are being empowered to overcome all odds.  So you are going to win.  No doubts, no dramas, but not necessarily in a way that you expect either!  

She is sending the best possible situation to you even now.  It might startle you, like a sudden light in the middle of the night, but it will be welcome nonetheless.

The Joker is the highest trump card to beat all others.  

No matter how much another may seem to have the upper hand, or how many forces seem to be against you, even if you feel like a lone wolf about to be mauled by a pack of hungry lions, the Joker always wins.  

She comes out of the blue, and changes destiny from darkness to light.  She brings the brilliant solution that ends a problem, the way through that is best and brightest.  

You probably won’t see it coming.  It will probably be in a way that subverts everything you once believed to be true. 

But it will be a welcome trick by the Universe, a loving joke that opens your heart and helps you realise that this vast impersonal universe personally knows and cares for you, so intimately and with such meticulous care. 

Just don’t expect to feel in control of the process, for the Joker is wild and moves according to her own genius, but always blesses you with what will work best, beyond compare, now and always.  

RED COUNTESS

Deep within, you know what is true and what to do (or not do).  Yet there is so much noise and distraction in the world, and even at times in our own minds, that listening for our inner wisdom can seem like trying to hear gentle birdsong in the midst of a rock concert.  

Even so, you are hearing an inner truth, and deep down, you know it.  Can you trust that it is safe to not only hear your inner voice but act on it too?

There is something that you know.  You’ve felt, sensed, heard or realised this truth more than once.  Even if others see or feel differently, you just know what you know, even if you don’t quite know how you know it!  

Give your truths value.  Hold your feelings and insights in high enough esteem to pay attention to them, to give yourself time to process what you think, feel and sense. 

Know that they’re worth acting on, even if that action just means to trust more and stop worrying.   

If you cannot figure out what your inner truths are, or you feel confused by conflicting thoughts and feelings, torn between head and heart, then you are in a state of information overload.  

You need to switch off, discharge some excess mental and emotional energy and take a break.  Give yourself some time out from the crazy noise and constant distractions of the world so you can get in touch with what is true for you.

SILVER SIREN

When is an enchantment not enchanting?  When it is a spell that you allow to consume your free will, even as it promises so much and yet delivers so little.  

The Silver Siren sings her song, a pretty poison to the soul.  Her false allure tempts the mind, even whilst the heart feels that something is not quite right.  

Your power will come from discerning the truth and allowing her false promises no place in your heart.

If you compromise your integrity you will find that what you have obtained was not worth the price you paid for it, no matter how much you believed it would be otherwise.  It simply will not be worthwhile.  

The Silver Siren is a false light that is so very enticing but so destroying.  To disempower the false light, you must stay true to what your heart says. 

No matter how much you may fear you’ll regret it later on, simply say no to that which is unworthy, to that which does not hold the truth of love within.  Even if a person declares that they are utterly enlightened and only interested in your highest good; even if the opportunity at hand is “too good to miss”, making your mind needy and confused, follow your heart – if it’s not a Hell Yes, it’s a NO!

You are being given an opportunity for empowerment.  It is time to trust yourself and stand firm with your truths, and to experience the priceless sense of love, safety, security, peace and self-possession that this brings.  

With this, your soul can sing its own song, a song that shares true light, the lightness of a heart that lives in peaceful truth with the world.

Holy Hannah, you can’t make this shit up!  What fabulous guides to kick us off in January.  

Take time this week to really FEEL into what you want to experience this year, and how you want to ALIGN with it.

Use the Wolf Moon energy to really release and allow you to dream.  

Big hugs and squeezes, and if you want to join us for Flourish, there are 2 spots open and we start January 18th.
