American Thanksgiving, Embracing All of You, Gemini Lunar Eclipse.

· ·

Happy Miraculous, Majestic, Musical, Merry, Manifesting, Magickal Monday! 

How are you delicious lovely?  We have so much to explore this week.  The energy of giving Thanks, Celebrating your whole self, Eclipse time and for those who have been asking “When are the doors going to open again for Creatrix Circle?”  Hop on over to the waiting list to be kept up to date as the doors will open for one week in December.

For all my wonderful American friends “Happy Thanksgiving!” I have to admit that I find it a tad odd to have Thanksgiving so close to Xmas, but hey I love to celebrate most everything (ask my kids).  It could be winter solstice, summer solstice, equinox, Full Moon, New Moon, Chinese New Year, Easter, Valentine’s, the sun is shining, the snow is falling – you name it!  Even simple things like the first flowers of spring, or having gorgeous flowers on my desk whilst it is grey and rainy outside.  Life is a celebration and quite frankly I chose to celebrate as much as possible.

However, I will be honest at the beginning of the week I had a real heaviness dragging me down and a sense of despondency.  It was most peculiar as I’m not normally that type of person. We have had new strictures put in place with regards to Covid and they aren’t as severe as those in other countries, but it certainly didn’t help.  So I did a glorious swan dive into the lovely lake of doubt, fear, blaugh.  It sooooo wasn’t fun (thank goodness I’m a good swimmer!)

However, with the help of two amazing women I was able to unpack it all and realised that I had abandoned a piece of myself, a piece that was uber feisty, strong and didn’t buy into the bullshit, however, a place of painful stories.  SoI sort of stuffed her into the closet and it felt hugely uncomfortable, heavy and not okay. I felt incomplete and that I wasn’t embracing my whole self.  But that’s when ritual, reframe, mindset and magick came rushing to the front and slowly I’m sewing that piece back in and it feels incredibly good.  We are all glorious composites, dark/light, strong/weak, scared/brave – no piece should be abandoned.  Being thankful for all the pieces of us makes us whole and as Brene Brown shares:

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

Thus, I invite you (no matter where you live) to harness the energy of Thanksgiving and really give thanks for all the pieces that make up your most delicious self (yes, even the ones you judge harshly).  Give thanks for all the various people, places and things that you are thankful for – they could be present day, past day or future day.  List them all in your mind one at a time and as you bring them into your consciousness, smile and blow them a kiss (yes, seriously blow them a kiss).  See the kiss leaving your hand and turning into a gorgeous gold butterfly that flies off to that person or part of yourself and gently lands on their right cheek and brushes them softly with your blessing, thanks and appreciation.  

Okay, let’s talk about Eclipse time.  For those of you who have messaged saying you aren’t sleeping well, you feel fractious, fatigued and fed up.  I’m not surprised. We have a Full Moon eclipse on November 30th (Monday).  Eclipse time is intense all on it’s own, let alone with the whole de-constructing of an old paradigm piled on top of it.  

Now if you remember an eclipse  can generate an awareness of something larger, running the show and they poke holes in our ego/identity revealing things within us that we have been avoiding or are totally unaware of.  

An eclipse uncovers things.  Some we want to see and others we really don’t. Lunar Eclipses are like extra potent Full Moons. They illuminate areas of our lives that need to be cleared and swept away. They shine a light on all that no longer needs to be present with us.  They reveal to us where we are holding on too tightly, and where we have to surrender and let go.

Lunar Eclipses are potent because they require us to shed. This shedding can leave us feeling vulnerable, afraid, or uncertain of what is to come. But this Lunar Eclipse holds the promise of a brighter season coming.  It reminds us that whatever space is created by its presence will soon become fertile ground, ready to be adorned with new seeds when the timing comes.

Gemini is an air sign, which rules our mind. Our mind has the power to paint the picture we choose to see. Our mind has the power to take events and attach stories to them.

It is these stories that can trip us up more than the events themselves. It is the stories we tell ourselves that create a lot of stress and anguish in our lives.

With all that in mind and giving Thanks for all you are, all the people, places, situations and things that have helped make you who you are at this moment in time.  Let’s crack on with the reading.  

So my darlings with Thanksgiving approaching and Full Moon Eclipse just 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!  I love this deck for the magickal and insightful look at what we need.  When you look at the cards, can you see the witch, the blackcat and the elven character? 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.”

Note the last line of the introduction – urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be………….  Perfect guides for this time, we are in the space of late Autumn and moving into the dark,  the change in seasons, nature and the magick that is there, if  you’re willing to see it.  

Take a moment to just Breathe and give Thanks.  Give thanks for the food you have, the fact you are able to read this, your body, your essence – give thanks for the whole of it, even the squidgy places. Remember the Blow a Kiss from above.  

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see, shall we?

THE SIGIL KEEPER

When the Sigil Keeper comes to you, there will be no words.  Instead, there will be shapes and signs and messages a-flowing, as tough a language of symbols is being shared with you.  When she comes, you are being encouraged to participate in this process by creating and shaping your own magickal symbols and beginning to consciously choose the symbolic language that you are creating and connecting with every single day.  

You may wish to find a symbol at this time that represents you and the part of the journey you are exploring at present.  You may wish to look around your home and see what “hidden” symbols have worked their way into your life, and you may wish to rearrange these, remove some, replace others with symbols that are consciously chosen to be of greatest magickal support to you at this time.

Look at your clothing, what you wear, and see the symbolic nature of this, and go through your jewellery and consider carefully the energy of its symbols and whether you wish to connect with this

Sigil work is simple but ever so powerful, and this amazing being is a reminder to work with intelligence, and to exercise your choice at all times.  You must choose carefully now what symbols you keep about you – for they have shaped you more than you have ever truly considered. 

THE SOLITARY

Within, within you go.  When the Solitary visits, you are about to go within, to withdraw, and retreat from the world for a time.  This can be a response to an event from outside – a trauma, sadness or betrayal – and the withdrawing inwards, which appears to be depression, is actually a way of respecting the soul’s shadow, investigating it, understanding it, and mastering it.  This card indicates a time when you will go it alone – walk your own path, choosing to carve a way forward that you can be sure remains true to the deep self.  There will be a time of learning away from the mainstream, and there may be times when you feel isolated and somewhat worried about how your new path will be perceived. 

It can also indicate that in a past life, you have suffered for your gifts and spirituality.  You may have experienced a past life as a healer, seer, witch, wyzard, or medicine man, in which a new order decreed your power to be invalid and dark.  This fear still pursues you when you connect with the power of your gift – resulting in fears surrounding intuition and your natural talents.

By going within we learn more about our soul.  It is not a part of the journey that we necessarily look forward to, but it is a time of great development on the spiritual path and is imperative to growth.  Before we can shine our light in the world, we must ignite our inner spark.  This going inward is actually the sacred task of tending your own sacred flame and learning from it, before turning to matters of the world again. 

SHE WHO LAUGHS

There is within your life now a great heaviness, an earnestness, and a sense of great gravity to nearly every situation unfolding.  Yes, this is of great importance, and yes, there are consequences to consider.  

However, She Who Laughs wishes for you to receive the healing power of luagher, the power that lifts the darkness and releases energy that is stagnant, cold, and heavy from our energy field, indeed from our limbs and cells and hearts.  For you, this laughter is as necessaary as surgery at the moment, as it will shake loose the cords strapping you tightly to burdens you no longer need to carry.

Let the light break through, and laugh – as without laughter, there can be no perspective, withought lauther, there can be no movement forward, without laughter, there can be a sense of deep abiding resentming.  Lift this!

Let She Who Laughs begin to help you seek out oments, people, and situations that stir the sense of the ridiculousness within you, and let the healing and the release of alughter roll through you and lift away the pain at teh centre of your being.  Its time is passing.  It will melt away with tears of laughter that fall and cleanse and free you from the past……

For now, the sun breaks through, and your eyes shine once again, with mirth and joy.

Welcome back to the world of delight, friend.  It is time

Oh wow, positively perfect for this time.  (Seriously, you can’t make this shit up!)  So gorgeous one, sending you huge love, ease and thanks.  I am thankful for you exactly as you are – perfectly imperfect, which is the best way to be.  Be kind to yourself, and remember if you want to find out when Creatrix Circle is next opening hop on the waiting list.  Big hugs and squeezes.

New Moon in Scorpio, When the Darkness comes, and Eclipse season approacheth!

· ·

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

How are you?  How are you feeling?  In the wee hours of Sunday morning we were greeted with the Super New Moon in Scorpio, were you able to take some time and explore the energy of this most interesting New Moon (and the last New Moon prior to Eclipse season)?  Remember you always have a few days either side of any more for introspection, ritual, magick making or just sitting with the energy for a while.  

As Forever shares: “Whatever needs to come to the surface, especially on an emotional level is going to be stirred within us. We are going to feel the rainbow of emotions that make us human. The rainbow of emotions that in many ways, are our birthright.

We come to this planet to feel. We come into these bodies for a human journey in order to experience the array of emotions that are possible. It is through these emotions that art is created, that truths are revealed, that awakenings happen, and that love can bloom.

Under the dark night of the Scorpio New Moon, we are being guided to sit with ourselves and all of our emotions. We are being guided to allow the deepest of fears, loves, hopes, and dreams, to rise up from the pit of our belly, up and out into a new space of awareness.

It is our duty to sit with our thoughts and feelings as they arise, from a place of non-judgment. It is our job to recognize that we are not our feelings or our thoughts, we are the ones experiencing them.

Lean into that idea a little longer – you are not your emotions, you are simply the one that is experiencing them.

Your emotions, your thoughts, your story, are not who you are. They are simply the cloak that you wear as you travel from room to room on this journey called life.

As we enter the darker depths of the murky Scorpio waters, it may not feel comfortable, but it is indeed, necessary. Sometimes we have to do what is uncomfortable, sometimes we have to face whatever is lurking within the shadows of our own fears and doubts. For when we do, we gain so much. In those moments of wading through what is uncomfortable; when we realize and see fully and wholly our greatest pains, we gain a strength and a wisdom.”

Now for some of you that may feel rather “dark”, which is just a perception.  As we are all aware – there can be no light without darkness and the darkness isn’t “Bad”, as it is often portrayed in many media circumstances.  

In fact the darkness is loving, soothing and often a time of incubation and restoration.  The darkness holds a warm container for deep healing and spiritual evolution, if one is willing to play in that arena. 

Here in the Northern Hemisphere we are heading to the shortest day of the year (Winter Solstice),  and I have noticed that my body is responding like a tree.  I’m pulling the energy up into my roots, down from my branches and into my core and spending more time in silence, witnessing and contemplation. 

As I sat out yesterday late afternoon I watched the sky change, the light move from blue sky to grey dusk to dark and as I stood up I thought – gosh it must be late!  It was only 5:45pm!!  Yet I wanted warm, rich food.  To go inside and snuggle with a good book or my knitting, to cocoon and contemplate. To write, to slow down and really connect with myself.

So let me ask – how do you welcome in the darkness into your life?  Are you willing to welcome it in and explore it, or do you need to push it away.  In essence turn on all the lights, the music and be active to avoid?

Something to ponder with the energy of this lovely New Moon in Scorpio.  Perhaps do some journaling, or if you feel inclined set some New Moon intentions with the energy in mind.  If you have never worked with New Moon wishes, I’ve got you covered.  

And this New Moon provides some delicious energy to play with prior to the start of Eclipse season (which happens at the Full Moon this month).  In fact in Creatrix Circle we are having an incredible Full Moon Gathering to work with the energy of the eclipse through ritual, magick and intention.  As if you’ve been with me awhile you know that Eclipse time brings a lot of hidden things to the surface.  However, we will unpack that next week, okay?

Okay, enough chuntering.  When I asked the cards who wanted to come and guide this week I was tickled to see The Wild Kuan Yin Oracle jump up and down.  These glorious guides have been quiet on the public front for quite a while.  Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to would be rude).  

Within you beats a wild and compassionate heart, alive with fierce optimism.  Your heart knows that love has the power to conquer fear.  You have the courage to walk a path of transformation.  You are not afraid to shed old skins to become more of your divine self.  You dream of living your highest destiny with fearlessness and joy.  You are one of the wild ones.  You will not be tamed by convention.  You will not be censored by the fears of others.  You are not afraid to be different.  You are not afraid to be open to life, to take risks for what you love, and most of all, to keep hope in your heart.   When the loving peace of Spirit seems too far away from the troubles of the physical world the Divine Mother will hold your hands, close to your heart, or rest gently on your forehead.  She will bring you comfort.  She’ll remind you of your fire, your boldness, your unique beauty, your passion, your courage.  She’ll guide you through even the darkest loss into the blessing of new life.

Absolutely perfect guides for this time!  As who doesn’t need to be reminded of love? Oh yes and the gorgeous crystals and rose petals were also most adamant!

Okay gorgeous one, take a moment.  Breathe.  Breathe yourself back into your body and just BE for a moment.  As you breathe, invite in the warm swirl of darkness that holds so much richness for you and allow it to wrap you in its warm embrace.  Then whilst in this space pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what needs to be shared, shall we?

BLESSING OF THE KHATA BESTOWED

In your heart a desire for union grows, an impulse to move deeper into love’s embrace.  As you open your heart, I pour forth my healing balm and my blessing.  It is never too late for love.  It is never too late for joy.  It is never too late for connection.  As my blessings vests in your heart, a path will open up for you, leading you into love’s expansive landscape.  You too shall be as enchanted in love as I am, cherished and adored, surrender in love.  Love’s blessing and presence finds you now.  You are worthy of such blessing and shall be safe in the joy of its embrace.

In the Tibetan tradition, the white silk scarf, known as the khata, is a positive symbol that augurs new relationships with blessings for good fortune  It is a symbol of devotion, and is also a visual reminder of divine blessing granted for a successful transition into a new chapter of your life in whatever way that manifests, including through a new or deepened relationship.   This is your khata from the Divine Mother, Kuan Yin.  It is her acknowledgment of good intention and goodwill, of divine presence in new relationships, and is an auspicious gift for new beginnings.  These blessings are very special and this oracle is a vessel carrying that blessing to you now.  

To receive the blessing of the khata as fully as possible, intend to open your heart and allow love to have its way.  This may mean that some relationships, unable to be healed at this time for whatever reason, need to be released.  This is so you can grow and open your heart more freely to those able to love you the way you wish to be loved, to those able to receive your love the way you are able to give.  Remain open to love’s will, whether you understand it or not, which you can do by centering yourself in your heart.  Let your feelings guide you and trust in whatever is happening now in relationships or the new beginnings in your life.  You are not required to do anything except receive the Divine Mother’s love.  

HER JOY RENDERS THE IMPOSSIBLE TASK POSSIBLE

I have a task for you.  It is a sacred purpose burned in your heart, and you experience it as desire, as the big, bold dream that you may not dare to speak aloud.  You must trust me and my power, for that is greater than any doubt or fear.  I have created this task, this sacred purpose just for you.  It will ask many things of you.  You shall have to give up what you have been holding onto in order to open your arms to receive it. 

In dropping your ideas of impossibility, and stepping into the joy of the journey, my beloved divine wild child, your destiny will be manifested through  you rapidly, and all manner of miracles shall assist you on your way.  Such fun you shall have in the process of discovering what you are capable of when your heart is open and you believe in me unconditionally!  When you leap, do it with joy upon your lips as you squeal with glee, and know that even the trickiest ask shall be made attainable through my grace.

There is something you are meant to do.  You’ve been growing towards it your entire life.  All your life circumstances, lessons and situations have been teaching you valuable skills and wisdoms so that you are equipped for the tasks demanded by your divine destiny.  You may know clearly what those tasks are, or they may as yet be a mystery to you.  You may not be a big picture sort of person, preferring to focus simply on accomplishing the many smaller tasks before you each day.  Even without the vision, this daily disciplined approach will lead you higher and higher until you have ascended the peak of your own personal mountain and can see the broader picture of how all those smaller tasks have prepared you for a bigger journey of passion and purpose.

For you to take this next step, whether it feels like the leap that will launch your destiny into an entirely new level of manifestation, or whether it just feels like the next step (and not a particularly significant one at that) on your journey, you are being guided.  To truly take this next step, no matter how big or small you may imagine it to be, you must let go of doubt, fear, hesitation, judgement and control. Now that is no small task!

At a certain point in the journey, when we have learned to surrender judgement, and learned to open with increasing acceptance to all experiences that life delivers – even the ones we would prefer never to have to repeat – we will be ready for this new way to be.

You are being called to that place.  It is simple but profoundly high in frequency.   Whether you recognised it or not, there is a wellspring of joy within that never dries up.  It is not always easy to feel it, and that is part of the mystery of human experience.  Yet the time has come when another step is upon you and you need access to that joy within – the high frequency it releases within you – in order to take that next step on your life path. 

There is nothing that is impossible. Approach your decisions from a place of joy. Follow your bliss.  Do what you love and learn to hold love for your process, even if it is during a dark or challenging time.  You are promised an outcome.  Remain open in your heart and mind, and the Divine Mother shall orchestrate an offering according to the perfection of her joyful grace.  

SURRENDER SENSITIVE SISTER, BE MOVED BY THE MOON

You know what you know.  Even when you don’t know how you know! 

I speak to you through that knowing. 

The institution that is beyond logic.  The feeling that has no physical proof as yet.  The instinct to keep going, to trust yourself and take the journey before you.  Even when you feel like you know too much, or are too sensitive, you do not need to shut down or try to protect yourself from feeling. 

What will work better for you is to be open and truthful with all that you feel and resist nothing.  It shall then simply flow, changing like the phases of the moon, naturally and without effort on your part.  I will guide you and show you how to do this so that you will never be afraid- even of the passing experience of fear itself – and you shall become surrendered into life, moved by the moon, a living embodiment of grace in motion.

Something is happening.  You cannot see it, but in your most sensitive and responsive moments you feel it.  Others around you may not have any sense of it.  You may be the one who can acknowledge the reality that is, as yet, still energetic, not quite yet obvious to a less attuned mind.  

You may share your feelings with others, and they may accept what you say or see – or they may call  you mad and reject it.  Perhaps you may be keeping it to yourself because you don’t know what to do with the information or feelings you have, or are fearful that others will be afraid and judge you. 

Don’t worry about this. 

Explore your particular way of sensing energy.  Don’t discount what you feel.  Recognise, honour and be moved by it.  You are gifted with an ability to feel what is before the conscious mind of others recognise it – a gift for perceiving what is going to be because you feel it in your bones.  It is not prediction or guessing taking place, but attunement to the worlds of energy.  

If you have been wondering if you can or should work with energy for healing or spiritual growth as a career or for personal development, this is confirmation of this.  If you have been feeling more sensitive lately, even perhaps more emotional, and are wondering why – you are opening up psychically and intuitively, and becoming more receptive and conscious of subtle energies.  These are the forces of spirit, mind and emotion, thoughts and feelings, that cannot typically be seen with the physical eyes but can be recognised and felt with other faculties of subtle perception.

Always call on the guidance that loves you unconditionally and then follow your feelings as they guide you along your divine life path with intelligent grace.

Oh how deliciously perfect for this moment in time!  So gorgeous bean, I wish for you a most glorious week.  If you feel inclined, take the time to play with the energy of the New Moon, plant some seeds in the darkness of the time and be gentle and kind to yourself and those around you.  Oh yes, remember BIG mugs of hot tea and to BREATHE!  Sending you huge hugs and squeezes.  See you next week.  

Release, Realign, Pets and Vote!

Happy Marvellous, Magickal, Mysterious, Magnetic, Mesmerising, Melodious, Mellow, Manifesting Monday! 

How was the lovely Blue Full Moon for you?  I have heard from quite a few of you that you used the Book of Samhain and experienced big releases, and delicious heart openings which are awesome.  I took the whole day of Samhain to play, explore, do ritual and most certainly some magick, and most importantly spending time giving huge thanks for my ancestors, both lineage wise and those of calling.  It was really quite a profound day and night to say the least.  

Oh and to make the day even more special! A lovely friend made me the most amazing witch’s broom for me with powerful sigils carved into the handle, it was a treat to fly around on it!  Lol.  So although Samhain was divine, Halloween was rather odd. 

We had all our pumpkins lit up, sweeties galore, a slingshot (for sweetie delivery), a 5 foot piece of PVC pipe (for sweetie delivery), gloves, masks, tongs!  You name it we were ready and only two wee trick or treaters!  So now I’m left with a huge bowl of mini mars and aero bars!!!  Ah well, I’m sure I can find a tummy that will appreciate them.

So with November here (can you believe it’s already November?)  The energy has shifted.  If you remember the energy theme for October was “Keep Going…..No Matter What!”  Well as we move into the energy of November the theme is RELEASE AND REALIGN.

Now what does that mean?  The best person to explain this to you is Lena.  As Lena shares – 

“Several opportunities will present themselves this month for some cathartic release of old patterns, attachments, past wounds, disappointments, emotional debris, regrets, and old dreams and expectations. This will trigger a necessary realignment in these areas that will support essential preparation for the times to come. This is a fascinating month where being a little eccentric and thinking outside the box with creative problem solving and expanded ideas will yield positive movement in the right direction.

As we release the sticky parts, the bits and pieces will realign into a new pattern and a new vision based on our truthful personal intentions. This is the month to truly follow our hearts and to use our intuition when setting those intentions and contemplating what we want. Clarity will be important, not so much clarity of mind, but clarity of heart. “

Positively perfect, especially on the heels of Samhain as intention is everything and the heart is a far more powerful leader than the mind!  

On Sunday I was listening to a fabulous article on the radio about animals and how this pandemic has made such a massive change for people adopting pets.  Studies have shown that those who own a pet tend to be more compassionate, don’t suffer from the deep level of loneliness that some people can, tend to get more exercise and have better heart health!  So no wonder when Covid hit the shelters were running out of animals to put up for adoption.  Which then got me to thinking about people that I am drawn to – and most of them share their lives with some animal (partners and children not included).  The radio article went on to share a lovely quote which was:-

If you have never loved an animal,

A part of one’s soul is unawakened.

I have to admit I would agree with that.

Okay, as we are all aware (unless you have been hanging out in a cave for the last year), it is election time in the US.  Now, if you don’t happen to live in the US you may be thinking “Meh, nothing to do with me,” but it does. This glorious paradigm shift that has come about spurred on by Covid has shown – we are all in this together.  And let’s be honest, what happens in the US does impact most every country in the world.  So how about we all pretend we are glorious Care Bears and send some amazing love energy and light energy that this election goes well and that the best and highest good within the situation is reached.  Are you in?  

Care Bears unite (we can use that pet love!)

Okay, enough chuntering on.  When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share with you this week I smiled a huge grin when the Oracle of the Dragonfae stepped up.  Well, if you’ve never met them, please let me introduce you (as not to is rather rude).  

These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick! They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names. 

Note the line “we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves.”…………..

The stones that were wiggly and jiggly to join in are amazing beach stones (after all, the bones and the stones – the time of the ancestors).  Some delicious Fall leaves also wanted to show and shine.

Okay, take a moment gorgeous one and just breathe.  Breathe, Release, Realign and connect with the lost part of yourself.  And as you breathe, allow the question that is forming to come up in your mind’s eye.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that work for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what is in store for you this week.  

CHENGUANG

I am Dragonfae, thus I am at once a being of copious laughter, and of earnest and deep study.  Being Dragonfae, I know when to put aside my serious work and my mission, and play, laugh and love.  I know the importance of devoting myself to the playtime that balances, soothes and heals my heart, and lifts the heaviness that sometimes accompanies my days.  Can you do this?  Or are you too caught up in being taken seriously?  There is a perfect balance between serious, cosmic matters and playful light-heartedness to be found.  Both Earth and star are necessary for all of us.  We are indeed galactic beings ourselves.  But most of all, your hope and optimism is paramount right now.  Take heart, for delight and joy is yours.  

You are about to experience a true reversal in your inner self:  you will now think magickally and attain mastery of magickal consciousness.  What you think, what you are manifests about you at all times:  what you are now is the delicious light-hearted magickal being you were born to be.  You are like a beautiful shining star; its light magikally transforming everything it touches.  Rays of light beam out from you and your body is awash with healing green energy and fresh new life.  You are dancing in the air, lifted up on the strength of your own experience and friendships, and you would do well to wear the divine colour violet, while the gentle zephyr helps your move in the direction of your dreams.

When we allow ourselves to shine we become who we were always meant to be; and by example we encourage others to become who they truly are.  Drop the heavy nature of punishment, guilt and beliefs that no longer serve you.  You are a powerful role model for others; you have experienced the joy of setting your sights high and the healing power of self-belief.  You still have many experiences ahead of you on your journey, but this energy of the star is now your companion and your divine inspiration.  

QUEEN OONAGH

At present, you are confronted with a challenging situation, which feels almost as if it will overwhelm you.  The might of the challenge is not truly as it seems, because within you are clever and indeed brilliant solutions to this dilemma.  They reside within your mind and in your ability to stay calm under duress.  Do not allow yourself to be bullied by someone or something that seems so much more powerful than you.  Keep a cool head and plan your strategy. 

You have formidable resources in the intellect you have been given, in the power of your mind and of your imagination.  Explore yourself, and truly think your way out of this one.  You have powerful allies who will assist you, and your intelligence and your brilliance are here to be worked with.  You currently have all you need in order to overcome this challenge: this obstacle is one you can easily disarm. 

Be calm, centre yourself, and allow the solutions to filter through from your higher intelligence.  You have a beautiful and brilliant light inside of your mind, and as you shine it more and more brightly, this situation that seems so troublesome will soon fade away.  You have brilliance.  You have intelligence.  Believe in your gifts and your ability, and use them, now.

There is a practical approach to a seemingly unsolvable problem; if you take this tack, it will have fantastic results.  Look at how you can follow the letter of the law, so to speak, and yet be innovative and clever in your approach.  Put your own needs first and do not be a victim in this situation.  There is a way out, and it involves using your wits and wiles, and being aware that it is right and fair for you to do so when you have so much at stake!

Using the gifts of the Earth and of Gaia, of air and water, for practical ends with magickal results!

CHUMARA

Beyond the mask we all wear of identity, beyond the construct of who we have been conditioned to believe we are lies your face, your self.  This face is tender and new in so many ways, as you have not shown her to the world before.  This face has been protected because the world has seemed and proved indeed at times to be a dangerous and unkind place, where those of us who feel different are proved to be so as we brave the taunts and finger pointing. 

But I now tell you that your protections, your armour and your shield can be removed safely with me.  Do not discard her, as you may need her yet in certain situations.  But know now she is your armour and her role is to protect your true being.  

To you, I now reveal myself.  See?  Many have recoiled in horror at who I truly am.  I’m a Dragonfae Maiden, a Spider Woman, a being of webs and change and destruction, and re-creation.  Each day I must remake my world….I feel along its sensory threads to see what needs reconstruction and what needs to be let go of.  For I am, as you are, part of the new web of life – a web of life that embraces our differences and yet understands that we are one.

I ask you today to look at the webs in your life that must be remade and rewoven…..  Remove  your mask that says “I am this,” and know you are that, but also so much much more.

Oh my gosh, I so, so, so love the cards.  Perfect for this moment in time!  So most delicious one, please take a moment to send some Care Bear love out to where it is needed (you don’t necessarily have to define that).  Take good care of yourself and if you have a glorious animal friend that you share your life with – give them a fabulous snuggle and let your soul awaken a bit more.  After all, we need as many awakened souls on this planet as possible.  Big love and hugs!

Samhain is almost here, Full Moon in Taurus, and time to embrace your shadows.

Happy Miraculous, Magickal, Mystical, Melancholy, Magnificent, Misty, Merry, Manifesting Monday!  

How are you fabulous one?  We have had amazing weather here for the last two days, the absolute epitome of Fall!  Cold, crisp, breezy, bright and the colours on the trees are stupendous!  So I made sure I got out in the leaves this weekend (even bundled up to the hilt) and revelled in it all, as it will be gone soon enough. 

What I am absolutely pig wiggly tickled about is, Samhain is almost here!!!  (You may know it as Halloween) and I love, love, love Halloween.  The smells, the leaves, the costumes, the decorating – the whole nine yards!  

At the time that most of us celebrate Halloween it is also the festival of Samhain, the third and final Harvest festival  where we celebrate with fire, eating and honouring the dead.  In many places, Samhain coincides with the end of the growing season. Vegetation dies back with killing frosts, and therefore, literally, death is in the air. This contributes to the ancient notion that at Samhain, the veil is thin between the world of the living and the realm of the Dead and this facilitates contact and communication.  This is also the Celtic New Year.  Now I know some people get a tad tweaky when we talk Death, but death represents a release, whether it’s a release of breath, a release of habit, a release of a relationship.  That’s all it is.   

So to help you with one of the most important celebrations on The Wheel of the Year, and to share with you rituals to celebrate your ancestors, I have created a fabulous Book of Samhain (fondly referred to as BOS).  39 pages of information, rituals, crystals, guided visualisation and all sorts more.  And as I love to give gifts – I have made it 70% off!

On Samhain (October 31st) we have our second Full Moon of the month. This is the first full moon to fall on Halloween since 2001 and we won’t see another one until 2039.  Having two full moons within the same month indicates an overall theme of release, and it seems there is a lot unraveling under the power of this Blue Moon.  Which ties in seamlessly with the energy of Samhain.  

Under the dim light of the Blue Moon, visualize your chakras awakening one by one. See them shining like bright balls of rainbow light. See them opening and connecting you to your higher self and to the realms above.

As Forever shares:-  “If you have a loved one that has crossed over, on this night say a special prayer, or do something to remind you of them. Eat their favorite food, or light a candle in their name.

And beyond reaching out to passed loved ones, make time to acknowledge the “deaths” both great and small in your life. There are so many things that have “died” this year, so honor the ones that matter most to you, even if they are a little painful.

Look to nature for guidance, as it is always showing us how it dies and rebirths itself again and again. So, while this Blue Moon carries some volatility, it also reminds us to get grounded and rooted in our being, so we can reach into the realms unknown.

So on Samhain the sky is going to be bright with this glorious Taurus Full Moon, which creates a glorious mix of Shadow and Light.  Yet I see so many people stuffing what they perceive as their “Shadow” pieces.  The pieces that they don’t like, or that are judged by others as “not suitable for present company!”  This in turn creates a fragmentation and a sense of not being whole, it also encourages people pleasing and mask wearing to fit it.  

So what if on Samhain you chose to release stuffing your shadows and really embrace, love and trust all the different parts of you that work together as you live your most creative, honest and beautiful life?

What if you actually remember and embrace all you are – a wholeness?  Remembering the important life lessons that have come our way, such as: – I remember that masks that stay on too long will stick to my skin.  I remember I always have a choice.  I remember that if I am asked to keep a piece of me hidden, this is not where I belong.  It’s about diving into your core values and living them.   

So, when I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide and teach this week I nearly snorted tea out of my nose when I saw who were most adamant.  (Seriously you can’t make this shit up!)  The glorious Oracles of Shadow and Light, were most adamant they should be front and centre.  Now if these amazing guides are new to you, please let me introduce them:-  “Wisdom for Misfits, Mystics, Seekers, and Wanderers.  Bittersweet…Unheard…Unconventional…Rebellious…Cheeky…Whimsical…Invisible.  They’re not the words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they?  Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream.  They do not fit in.  They have had moments of despair.  And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all!  They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and to consult with an oracle that acknowledges your individuality and strange genius!”  

How’s that for a warm welcome?

Thus with the thought of wholeness, reclaiming the energy that you use to hide pieces of  yourself or your pain, that sense of release –  close your eyes down and just breathe.  Just breathe, trust and allow this all to swirl.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug.

Did you remember to pick?

Come see what the guides want to share with you.

SEA BEACON FAIRY

Sometimes, when a clear path seems to be taking you in the right direction, it helps to know who is holding the light up.  Because while this beautiful Sea Beacon Fairy is most certainly guiding a lost ship, who knows whether she leads it toward rocks or toward safe harbour?  And this is the choice you have to make now.  Is this path that is clearly being lit the right one?  Simply because there is light, is the source a true and good guide? Would you be best to await another way out of the storm – or are you so eager to avoid the storm and the challenge that you will follow the first light that comes along?

The Sea Beacon fairy speaks to you and says – “I do hold up the light – but only you can choose as to whether the direction I will lead you is the right one for you at this time.  It may be your salvation I lead you to – and it may be that I am gathering souls and you will perish upon rocks, or down in cold seas.  I know this is hard to hear…..It is not a sure thing, this advice and guidance you have received, and for all its insistence that it ‘comes from the light,’ the advice may not be that which you need to follow at this time.  I understand this may be confusing.  But I am assuring you mostly of one great truth.  That perhaps you must find your own way out at this time.”

A perfect solution to a problem has been presented to you.  But whether it is wise to take it is another thing altogether.  You may have more resources and opportunities than you are aware of or than you are allowing yourself to believe in.  Do not be too quick to follow the first opportunity that comes.  Wait, and check both your sources and your inner wisdom.  There are many paths and many solutions.  Not all advice will be right for you.  

SEA STORM

Even though the seas are wild, the atmosphere is torn with stabs of lightning, and there is no land in sight, the Sea Storm being is following her intuition and she will know what to do to make it home.  Lightning won’t strike her, and she will keep swimming until she reaches land.  

She seems slightly in a trance and is using her inner wisdom and deep knowledge to swim home.  She is from Atalantis, where she saw beings doing things that would lead to destruction.  She has seen how their hubris led to this upheaval, and her home has sunk under the waves.  She now goes out in search of her new home.  So, too, can you.

Sea storm shares with you – “You are surrounded by storms, wild moments, and a great deal of emotional drama at this time.  The world you know may be changing in almost unrecognisable ways.  There is destruction behind you, and you have left it in the past, but you are still searching for your new home.  You will find it if you turn inwards and listen to the inner knowledge that will send you in the right direction.  Don’t ‘look’…Look.  

You are a shapeshifter, and you are able to make it through this time with no land, no home, and no apparent rescue by trusting that you will make it.”

This is a time of upheaval and great change, but if you tune in to that deep inner voice and follow the radar you have built into your very cells, you will find the way home through all this chaos and wreckage.  

The old world is gone: the new world is yet to be found.  The journey will continue for some time – but trust.  Trust.  Trust and follow the compass of your inner guidance.  Listen, check in with your wisdom, then go in that direction.  

You are more adaptable, more flexible, more able to survive than you know.  Interest in the lands of Lemuria and ATalantis and memories of these lands may be resurfacing and will serve you well.

PINK LOTUS FAIRY

You may love your guilt-free rants, staying up too late, and happily behaving badly, but you’re about to balance all that out with some very powerful new spiritual teachings and connections.

You are to meet a wise one who seems very still, very slow, and very peaceful.  She will be tranquil and serene and immersed in a path that until now has felt too slow, or “foreign,” for you.  But this teacher, who is represented by the Pink Lotus Fairy, will assist you in finding more of your soul’s true wisdom.  Within this time of inner discovery, you will commit to disciplined new training in the mental realms: study and physical movement that is unfamiliar to you, all of which helps you to naturally choose thoughts that are empowering and enlivening, yet completely authentic and real.

You will learn to be still and to listen to the beat of your heart without giving in to restlessness, or the critical voice inside, or the cliches the ego loves to trip you up with.  After you have learned more discipline through peaceful practice of meditation or exercise or mantras, you will nurture yourself more willingly, without guilt, and you will have returned to a place of tranquility, self-love and peace.  

You will bring into balance your own shadows and light.  Don’t worry – you will be happier and more peaceful, but you won’t be boring!  You could never be!

There is a deep and true part of yourself that has long yearned for acknowledgement, fulfillment, and the nirvana that is on its way.  

Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer.  What fabulous messages for this time, Samhain, Full Moon and where we are at this moment in time.  So most gorgeous bean, I wish for you a stupendous week filled with ease, release, tears and laughter.  Be gentle with yourself and those around you and take some time on Samhain to really practice your magick and release the old year and welcome in the new one, and if you need ideas and support. The Book of Samhain is available.   Big hugs and squeezes!

Thanksgiving, Libra Super New Moon and Kindness.

· ·

Happy Magickal, Marvelous, Musical, Majestical, Manifesting Monday!

How are you gorgeous one?  Here in Canada it is Thanksgiving and I will say it was quite lovely yesterday to get out prior to the intense rain and watch the sun rise and light up all the gorgeous leaf colours. As I yomped with Danu revelling in the glory that I was seeing for some reason an old hymn from childhood came burbling up.  “We plough the fields and scatter the good seed on the land….” and when I couldn’t remember various lines I would belt out dum, de, dum, de, dum!  (Made a few people look at me a tad askance lol).  Have to say though, Mama Nature is really quite a creative beastie to say the least.  Then the rain came sleeting in at a heavy rate and it became the perfect day to stay in doors, unpack some boxes and cook a massive Thanksgiving meal!  

Which got me to thinking about gratitude, kindness, open hands and an open heart.  Currently here the homeless populace is huge and due to Covid there are so many places that aren’t open so they are camped out in the parks.  You can watch someone come in, set up their tent, claim their space under a tree and then within a few days two or three more have joined to make a wee little supportive web to ensure safety.

Over the months I have walked through many of the parks with Danu and stopped and chatted with some of the amazing people who have been forced into this situation and shared stories, food, kind words and deep meaningful conversations.  These aren’t all addicts, drug users, ne’er do wells, they are people, a lot of regular people.  However, of late there are those (who I refer to as pinch faced, judgemental conservatives), who are ensconced in their large lavish houses and object to having to see tents when they go out for a daily perambulation.  Seriously?!

So there are petitions galore to “remove those people and send them somewhere else” and the words that flow out are ugly, mean, judgemental and unkind.  So the question that came to mind was – how do we help both groups of people.  Those who are currently in tents whilst the rain slices in from the East on 40km winds with no friggin Thanksgiving dinner to attend, nor a window to close and those who stand in judgement and toxicity?  

Our voices are certainly one way to help, but also taking the time to really see a person, talk to a person, use kind words and offer what support one can all help.  So today I am making little ham puffs and taking them out in the rain to share with anyone who wants one, with a smile, heart open and hands open.  So if you have any insights on how we can work with this paradigm shift and pandemic to create something better, stronger, more accepting and cohesive I would love to hear your suggestions.

On Friday, October 16th we have the Libra Super New Moon.  This is also the day that the glorious members of Creatrix Circle are all joining together for an opening ceremony to create sacred space and a circle of support, magick and trust.  I am piggly wiggly excited!!

As Forever shares:-  “Libra is all about balance, fairness, and justice, and these are qualities we are going to have to keep in mind under the intense energies this New Moon brings.

As this is a Super New Moon, we are going to feel the lunar energies strongly. Even though the sky will be dark on this night, we will feel the pull of the Moon, drawing us inward and into the deeper depths of our soul.

There is some dense, heated energy surrounding this Libra Super New Moon. It feels a little harsh but also oddly magical.

This New Moon may stir some troubles for us or bring some pain points to the surface of our heart. It may make us feel a little heavy or lethargic, and add to the confusion or uncertainty we may already be feeling.”

The New Moon calls for us to return to ourselves, to step out of shame and blame and to focus on giving back to ourselves. When we are “full of ourselves” then we can pour into others.

So gorgeous one, I hope you take time to really set some delicious intentions and New Moon wishes.  If you’ve never done them before, let me introduce you to the New Moon Bowl. It’s easy, powerful and quite magickal.

Okay, enough chuntering, when I went to the cards to see who wanted to guide and support this week, my heart swelled with delight.  The gorgeous guides of the Blessed Be Oracle came to join.  Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them:-

“May these cards and guides offer you ways to enter into deeper appreciation of your life and its manifold blessings.  May you have hope, understanding and kindness.  And most of all, may you know deep within your soul, that thou art blessed.”

The gorgeous autumnal leaves came to share their radiant reds and delightful crystals hopped into the mix as well!  

So take a moment and breathe yourself back into your body.  Allow your breath to find its own pattern and to gently slow down.  You have this moment.  Feet on the ground, head to the heavens and heart open.  As you breathe, invite in your wise self to guide you as you pick.  Then when you’re ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a peak shall we?

A BLESSING TO FIND THE TRUTH

A blessing to discover the truth in a situation, so you can make choices with full awareness.

A blessing on this time, and on you, so that the truth can be told, and thus pour down upon you its unique freedoms.  May you be blessed with knowing the truth of your own soul – and let the transformative powers of truth bring to you the light, so that what was once obscured now begins to shine, and what was uncertain now becomes defined, sure, glittering in its certainty.  

Let the blessings of truth be your liberty now, for with truth there is a growth of wings that lift you up and beyond the current burdens that have kept you grounded.  Let the speaking of the truth bring you comfort, let the open-hearted honesty of it cure any confusion, and let the conviction of your new knowledge bring you the rewards you are so dearly due.  Let those who know you, who hear you, be healed by the contact with the purity of your words and yourself – and let no one be in any doubt as to the worth of your words and the quality of your character.  There is no need to be anything except your own blessed, perfect, honest and open self.  Revealed to you now is the truth of others – their motives laid bare, without adornment or manipulation.

Let the lamp of truth shine into all that was dark and unknown, both within and without, and let the words you have longed to speak fall freely and without concern from your lips.  Truth shall bless you, and you shall bless others, when you show, by example, the glorious simplicity of living within the power of your own truth.  Live the truth of your soul – and may the souls that share the truth be blessed forever.

Blessed Be.

A BLESSING ON YOUR CREATIVITY

A blessing to stoke the fires of your creative soul, to bring to birth the dreams that lie in wait within you, a blessing to charge up your gifts so that they can be seen and shine within the world.

Creativity is a blessing given to us all – yours is as natural to you as your breathing.  It is said that some are more creative than others, but for you, this gift is lying in wait now, and it is for you to bring to it your deduction and attention so it can arise from its sleep and awaken into the world.  You have creative gifts – the gift of thinking in a new way, seeing things differently, telling a story through clay or wood or gems or words or paint, and in the telling of the story holding a mirror up to our existence, saying, see, this is the truth of who we are.

Creativity is the act of making something and letting it have life – to be a creator is to connect strongly with the Divine, for you bring forth into the world what was unseen until you imagined it.  It is both the harnessing of your imagination and your dedication, and with these two steeds you pull the dream from the unreal world into the natural world – and you delight us with the blessing that is your gift.  

So, if you are reading this and you have faltered on your creative journey, know that this blessing will help you set aside the chorus of doubt that sings within us all, to quieten the naysaying voice that dims your gift, and in the silence of inspiration you shall again begin to flow.

So, capture the fleeting gift when it comes, and know that when you do this, the world is made more beautiful.  Be creative, live creatively, shake off inertia and habit and make your whole life an art.  No age, no job, no relationship defines you – but it is the way in which you choose to live as art that will show us who you truly are.  

So wild soul, a blessing on your creativity – may you show us your gifts!

Blessed Be.  

A BLESSING FOR THE RIGHT WORDS

A blessing for apt speech, to call to your lips the right words that speak simply and clearly and find their mark.

May the words that fall from your lips be blessed, friend.  In times when we must speak of difficult things, it can be a great challenge to conjure up the words that best express our feelings and intent, without causing offence or harm to another.  We struggle sometimes with this balance, and in doing so, our words may be watered down, lost in the desire to appease, in the wish to do no harm.  But with this blessing, there will be words that come to find you, without effort, the words alight by the fires of inspiration, and they will flow from your mind to your mouth and be heard, fully and fairly.

May you be blessed this day with the speech of good sense, the conversation that clears and clarifies, and most of all, the words that will be heard by those who you need to understand and listen.  May you be blessed with the words that stir hearts, that make friends of minds that once were firm against yours.  May your words, like water, seep their way into the cracks of the stone and work their magick of transformation within.  

Your words are spells, and their magick can take time, but with the apt speech that you are blessed with, doors of understanding open up between you and others, and where you once fell silent, you will speak up.  Where you once faltered, and shied away from the difficult things that must be said, you will rise and flow through this challenge, and embrace the opportunity to give voice to the darkness.  Where once you let others speak, and heard only your own words in your mind, you will now hear them out in the world, and know you have used words as others use weapons – but it is not for battle, rather for courage, and understanding.  

May you find ways to cut through the falsehoods that others and their words can weave about you.  Let  your words be songs of praise as they flow from the gift of speech you have been blessed with.  May you no longer stay quiet, friend, for you have been blessed with the power of right speech, and it will serve you well each time you sing out your truth.

Blessed Be.  

Oh wow!  What delicious Blessings and so apt for this time, your truth, shining your light, and the right words.  Woosah!  So my delicious lovely I wish for you a glorious week filled with ease, effortlessness and flow – oh and gobs of laughter and nourishing food.  May your breath be long and your heart be light.  Sending you huge gratitude, hugs and squeezes.
