Tenderly Fierce: A Thanksgiving Reflection for Your Whole, Glorious Self.

Gorgeous Soul,

How was your New Moon?

And yes — for those of you watching the sky and the calendar (I’m looking at you, Alice!) — Mercury Retrograde truly does end on November 25th. Yes. It ends.

We can all exhale. ✨

To all my beautiful American friends: Happy Thanksgiving!

I must confess… it still feels a bit curious to have Thanksgiving nestled so close to Christmas, but honestly? I’ll celebrate anything worth celebrating. And I find most things — if you look closely — are worth celebrating.

Winter Solstice, Summer Solstice, Equinoxes, New Moons, Full Moons, Chinese New Year, Easter, Valentine’s…
The first flower after a long grey winter.
The soft sigh of snow.
A ray of sun breaking through the clouds.
Even the simple pleasure of fresh blossoms on my desk on a rain-drenched morning.

For me, life hums with reasons to say thank you.

And I’ve learned to honour those nudges, those small invitations, those whispers of delight.

But as the holiday season edges toward us — glittering, noisy, complicated — expectations can rise like a tide. Comparison shows up uninvited. Old patterns tap us on the shoulder. And we can find ourselves stretched thin in a dozen directions.

Which reminds me I want to share a funny story (which does tie in with all of this).

If you remember, last week I sent out a post about the New Moon in Scorpio, Mercury Retrograde & the Power of the Dark Moon.

There was a lot of information in that post, so to try and make it succinct there were parts that were bullet points (made sense to me). Yet I received a few comments or judgements saying “You use AI. You have lost your soul.”

Wow! Okay, I have been doing these readings for over 14 years, and I write all the content and my glorious Spiritual Posse picks the cards and guides the whole shenanigans!

So instead of taking it personally I reminded myself – I have healthy boundaries and I have fully claimed all the pieces of me.

So let me ask you something gently, honestly:

Do you give yourself permission to hold healthy boundaries… to speak your truth with compassion… to tend to your own inner hearth?

And if you don’t — why not?

This past week I’ve had heartfelt conversations with people who are luminous, wise, and wholehearted — and yet their boundaries are quietly overrun by family, friends, partners, colleagues.

And their beautiful hearts absorb the aftermath: overwhelm, resentment, regret, the ache of feeling unseen.

As I listened, I kept returning to a phrase that has been walking beside me for months:

Tenderly Fierce.

That sacred place where your heart stays open — tender, vulnerable, receptive —
while you fiercely honour your boundaries, your truth, your energy, your sacred yes and your sacred no.

It is softness with sovereignty. Compassion with clarity. Love with edges.

Yes. Yes. YES.

Now, you may be thinking: “Jenn… boundaries? During the holidays?”

Oh, sweetheart — especially during the holidays.

Boundaries are not walls.
They are invitations into right relationship — with others, yes, but also with yourself.
When we don’t honour them, we lose our centre.
We leak energy.
We silence our needs.
We abandon ourselves.

And you deserve better than that.

You deserve to hear your own voice — clearly, kindly, courageously — whether you’re naming your limits, expressing gratitude, speaking your truth, acknowledging your pain, or choosing rest when everything around you clamours for more.

There was a time when I wasn’t embracing all the parts of me either. I tucked away the messy ones, the uncertain ones, the ones I judged.

But ritual, reframe, mindset, and magick pulled me gently back. Piece by piece, I’ve been sewing my whole self together. And oh… it feels like coming home.

We are all mosaics — light and shadow, brave and scared, fierce and tender, grounded and fragile.

Every piece belongs.

As Brené Brown so beautifully reminds us:

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

So here is my invitation to you, wherever you are in the world:

Give thanks for every piece of yourself.
Even the ones you hide.
Even the ones you judge.
They are your medicine — your wisdom — your story.

Then, with a full breath, call into your mind all the people, moments, and miracles you’re grateful for — past, present, and those shimmering in the future.
One by one, let them arise.
Smile at each.
And blow them a kiss.

Imagine that kiss becoming a golden butterfly that drifts toward that person, memory, or part of yourself — landing softly on their cheek with your blessing, your love, your acknowledgement.

That’s the kind of gentle magick this season asks of us.

Now enough chuntering from me, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards to ask who would like to be present this week it made my heart smile to see who showed up. The amazing Faery Blessing guides were most adamant. As after all, who doesn’t need a Blessing?

So gorgeous one take a breath. Just a normal breath and then as you carry on breathing allow it to slow down. Breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth.

Allow in your mind’s eye a rising of your gorgeous heart, your voice and a beautiful circle of silver light around them. Allow this silver light to grow stronger, with you in the center and let that space be filled with all the things you are thankful for. Let the silver circle become a delicious healthy boundary.

As you breathe just let it swirl, you don’t have to control it.

Then with this energy pick the card or cards that call to you. What Blessing is for you this week?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what Blessing you picked, yes?

A BLESSING ON THE HEART’S CALLING

The Faery Gift of Living from the Truest and Most Pure Call of the Heart

For faeries, what the heart wants, in its purest form, is the right thing to desire. But for humans, we have long practiced smothering the heart with the voice of reason, most often not our own voice, but the voices of others, of cultures and governments and of groups of people who fear nothing so much as hearing the heart’s deep call. And so, with this gift of the faery comes the gift of hearing again the heart’s deep call and having the courage and commitment to follow it, no matter where it may take us.

The heart’s deep call will never drive us to a destructive relationship or a hurtful scenario. It is not going to sacrifice our spirit to the making of money or the stifling of creativity. The heart’s deep call, the true call, is beyond this, and will only take us in the direction of the dreams we are meant to fulfil this lifetime.

The faeries can now, with this gift, slowly lift the mist that covers the shining heart within you and open you up to that deep listening to your own self, and help you to value the song of the heart that has been singing to you since before you were born. For the faeries have heard the song of your heart, and have wondered at the difference between its call and the life you have lived thus far.

With this gift, your life will move more into accord with the heart, and you will begin to live from that deep, true place – with integrity, with fulfilment, without foolishness or following another, for your own heart will guide you and never ask you to sacrifice yourself to the creation of the dream of another.

The faery’s gift is of the heart’s deep call to you, friend. May its song bring you every blessing.

A BLESSING OF THE LIMINAL SPACE

The Faery gift of Gateways, Sacred Sites, Enchanted Times.

Dear Faery Friend, you have reached a great moment, the point where you can receive the blessing of the liminal space and time. The gateway, the moment, the choice is here. Let the liminal, the in-between, become more and more apparent to you.

May the blessings of the sunrises, with their dawn colours and sweet beginnings, be yours. And may the sunsets, with their richness and splendour and their message of coming rest be yours, too. May the in-between spaces, the places where the faeries can reach you so easily, and where you can discover your own inner magick be yours.

To be blessed with the liminal is to be blessed with the deeper magick of the natural world, to have the ability to step outside of human rush and stress and worry and deeply experience the quiet spaces within nature that are so often offered, yet o rarely accepted.

Find yourself within the sacred grove, with the old, wise trees; find the space between the worlds and walk a while with the guides and faery kin who love you and wish to be of assistance to you.

Find your way into the magick of your own life and soul, and leave behind the push and stress that strips the world of its magick. May your intuition flow easily and accurately, may there be a sense of deep peace and trust with the world, and may you know that there is an abundant well of magick and faery wisdom awaiting you, every day, every hour, within these sacred spaces and places.

Find the space in between, find the magick that dwells within, find the faery circle in the field, and let yourself be blessed again and again with the blessings of the enchanted ones, the sacred spaces that lie all about us.

THE BLESSING OF THE MOTHERS

The Faery Gift of a Time of Unexpected Gifts and Wonderful Synchronicities.

When this blessing comes to you friend, you receive the blessing of the Mother, the ancient faery being of the land known today as Wales. With this blessing comes recognition for your own kindness and generosity, and so now you will find yourself blessed with the unexpected gift.

The old tales tell us that the Mother will reward those who are kind and caring, especially those who care for the land and for the animals. And so to you they are sending a boon – a gift of treasure found in a hidden place, a warm cloak on a cold day offered by a stranger, money readily coming to you in strange and lovely ways, and ease of suffering in an area you thought had no hope.

The blessings of the Mothers are unpredictable, as they will see your own life and what they will bring to you is what your soul most needs to feel solace and blessings. If you have felt like there has been a run of “bad luck”, this will now lift and transform into an effortless flow of all that is good.

Every small kindness you have offered others will now flow back to you. And in mysterious ways, you will see how what was once done of simple goodness is now returning to you, threefold.

For the faeries see you, know you, and acknowledge your heart, and the Mothers are now with you, to bring you the bendith y mamau – the gifts of the Mothers – so when they appear, give thanks, and know that nothing goes forgotten and unseen in the realm of the enchanted ones.

Blessings, and may the gifts of the Mother bring you comfort and goodness, friend.

Oh how deliciously perfect for this moment in time! So gorgeous bean, I wish for you a most glorious week. Use your voice, practice your boundaries and know that you are sooooo worth it. Happy Thanksgiving! Sending you huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week.

A Week of Remembering, Realigning, and Reawakening Hope.

Jenny Heston · 2:02 pm ·

Hello gorgeous soul,

Settle in with a warm cup of tea or coffee and take a breath. This week brings us into a powerful convergence of energies—Mercury Retrograde, Remembrance Day, and the 11:11 manifestation portal.

It’s a time of reflection, remembering, and conscious intention.

Let’s walk through it together.

Mercury Retrograde (Beginning November 9)

Mercury Retrograde often gets a dramatic reputation, but in truth, it is a deeply supportive astrological phase—if we work with it instead of resisting it.

Think of Mercury Retrograde as a sacred pause.
A chance to realign.

Mercury Retrograde =
Revised
Redefined
Reconsidered
Reclaimed

This is an ideal time to:

Listen to your intuition, not the noise around you
Pay attention to dreams and symbols
Reconnect with people from your past who truly matter
Return to unfinished projects and bring them to completion
Feel into what is true for you now—not what used to be
Come home to what is important

Retrograde is not here to disrupt. It is here to guide us back to ourselves.

Remembrance Day – November 11

Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, marks the end of World War I—at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Every year, we hear the phrase: “Lest We Forget.”

But what are we remembering?

Not just history. Not just battles.

But humanity. Sacrifice. Courage. The cost of peace.

As a woman who has:

Served in the military reserves,
Served as a reserve police officer,
Been raised by and walked alongside those who served,

I hold this day with deep respect.

I have never known war on my doorstep.
I have never feared for the safety of my family as the world crumbled outside.
I know I am blessed.

The poppy, for me, is a symbol of:

Honour for those who served
Love for those who are still away from home
And hope—a hope for peace that is still possible

Even when the world feels heavy, we can choose to remember the human longing for peace and the power of collective empathy.

11:11 – A Portal of Manifestation & Alignment

Remembrance Day also holds the 1111 energy—an angelic and astrological activation.

11 is a master number.
1111 is a doorway.

This energy heightens:

Intuition
Manifestation
Synchronicity
Alignment with your soul path

It’s why people say to make a wish at 11:11. It’s not superstition—it’s resonance.

Close your eyes and remember the last time that you set an intention.

Did you feel doubtful that your wish would come true, or did you have faith that the universe was listening, ready to help you bring your vision to life?

This day invites you to set intentions clearly and with faith.

Another simple way to harness this energy is to free flow and write for 11 minutes about all your heart’s desires and intentions. At the end of the 11 minutes, go back and highlight the words that inspire you, make you feel hopeful, excited and then formulate them into an intention.

If you wanted to go a step further you could make a sacred Sigil!

As I tuned in for this week, I asked, “What is the most important message for us to receive right now?” And the guidance came through clearly, softly, lovingly:

This is a time of remembering your own inner wisdom.

You are not separate from Source.
You are never alone in your growth, your healing, your longing, or your becoming.

Your guides are asking you to slow down long enough to hear your own soul speaking.

So holding that in your heart and soul, take a deep breath and breathe in Hope.

If you need a bit more support there is a wee guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Come have a look.

FLOW

A meandering river is a waterway that curves, bends, turns, and seems to swing side to side as it flows forward. Viewed from above it looks sinuous and even snakelike. Meandering rivers are dynamic as they wind their way across valley floors and bring life-giving sediment to new habitats.

The word meander was derived from the ancient Meander River, which flows into the Aegean Sea. The Greeks created symbols for “meander” that have been described as some of the most important symbols for ancient Greek culture; they represented the fluid movement of water and the eternal flow of all life.

The twisting patterns were also thought to represent the serpent which was the symbol of healing, hence our present day symbol for doctors is the caduceus.

What does this sacred landscape want you to know?

There are times to hold on tight to the shore, and there are times to enter the flow. Notice where life is going and move in that direction, Watch for signs and follow them. Don’t resist.

When you go with the flow, your life-force expands and healing on all levels abounds.

This is also the time to release old, limiting patterns, forgive, and let go of the need to be right about your beliefs. If you aren’t feeling the smooth currents of life, it might mean that you’re being self-critical and judgmental.

When you enter the flow with gratitude and love, you will find blessings surrounding you. You will enter into a state of grace, and healing will abound.

ENLIGHTENMENT

Our beautiful home galaxy is so large that if you traveled at the speed of light, it would take you 100,000 years to go from one end to the other. (It is small compared to some galaxies – for example, the Hercules A galaxy would take 1.5 million years to cross at the speed of light.)

The realm of galaxies is so vast and so wide that it is beyond human comprehension, which is why the galaxy often symbolises great enlightenment as well a faith in the forces much greater than us.

So what does this sacred landscape want you to know?

Enlightenment occurs when one steps out of the confines of an ordinary definition of self and expands into a greater awareness of the self within the Universe. You are now reaching into the invisible realm of Spirit and connecting with what you cannot see. Forces beneath the surface are supporting you on your journey.

Have FAITH in yourself! You are so much more than you believe yourself to be. Have patience that there is a plan unfolding. The sky’s the limit! You are entering into a time of expansive transformation in a luminous and remarkable way.

Trust that the changes ahead are for the greater good, for most certainly they are. And if you ever doubt, step outside and let the stars remind you!

SECURITY

In ancient times, our forebears took refuge in caves. It was there that they could seek shelter from the weather and be protected from predators and enemies. The cave offered a safe place to prepare food, sleep, heal, and build community.

Caves were also the places where sacred spiritual ceremonies occurred, evidenced by cave drawings and altars that had been built along the ledges. Symbolically, caves often represented a secret pathway to the underworld, the divine womb of Mother Earth, and the sacred heart. Also, caves can be energy portals for shamans or other spiritual explorers.

What does this Sacred Landscape have to share with you?

You are safe and protected. No matter what is occurring in your life, you are in safe hands. Those in the realm of Spirit are watching over you. You can relax and let go.

Once you’ve taken measures to protect yourself and those you love – such as making sure everyone has their seat belt on in the car, making sure your insurance is paid on time, or replacing the filter on your heating unit – then let it go!

If you have been hypervigilant lately, take a break. Relax; know that all is well You can turn it all over to the Creator. And when you forget, breathe into the warm, welcoming cave that is held in your heart!

Wowzer, what glorious messages for this week. How did yours resonate for you? So gorgeous one, I wish for you a wonderful week filled with Hope, Flow, Enlightenment and Ease. Big hugs and squeezes! (And Remember to Remember).

✨ Witchlight & Whisper: Crossing the Threshold of Samhain ✨

Jenny Heston · 12:12 am ·

Gorgeous Soul,

Samhain arrives this Friday, and I can feel the shimmer of it already — that deep, ancient hum that says: something sacred is stirring.

My yard has become a glowing little underworld of its own — tangled spider webs catching the moonlight, skulls grinning beside tombstones, ghostly shapes drifting in the wind, and a few loyal skeleton dogs keeping watch.

Inside, candles hang suspended from the ceiling and flicker to life with the wave of a wand. (Yes, I absolutely believe in a good wand!)

But here’s the thing — if you’re anything like me, you intend to do something meaningful for Samhain every year… and then life swirls in.

You blink, and the day has passed.
The portal opened and closed, and you’re left thinking:
“I meant to pause. I meant to honour it.”

I want you to know — it’s okay.
The magick hasn’t passed you by.

Samhain doesn’t demand perfection — it simply asks for presence.

Even a moment of stillness, a candle lit in the dark, a quiet walk beneath the falling leaves can become a doorway.

Because Samhain isn’t only one night — it’s a season of descent.
A whole stretch of time where the veil thins and the light of summer recedes into mystery.

It’s an ancient Celtic turning point — the end of harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the year. A time when our ancestors drew close, when the otherworld whispered through the wind and dreams carried messages between realms.

Samhain is a threshold — a fertile pause between death and rebirth.

It’s where we can meet the unseen, commune with our guides and ancestors, and listen to the wisdom that surfaces only in stillness. I have to say, I love Samhain as it is the epitome of endings and beginnings.

This is a transformative time of year. When you connect with this potent energy, and let it guide you in your soul work, you can create lasting growth & change in your life.

If you’re feeling the call to explore these mysteries more deeply, to anchor this sacred time with intention and beauty, I created Witchlight & Whisper: Samhain Magick for the Soul as your companion for this very journey.

Inside its 47 luminous pages you’ll find:
🕯️ Rituals to honour the ancestors and the turning of the year
🌑 Reflections and journal prompts for descent and renewal
🍂 Simple ceremonies to meet your Samhain guides
🌕 Spells and seasonal lore to awaken your inner witchlight

Let this book be your lantern as you cross the threshold into the dark half of the year — a guide to remembering that the darkness is not something to fear, but a place of deep dreaming, fertile transformation, and return.

Step into the magick → Witchlight & Whisper: Samhain Magick for the Soul

Now with all that chuntering let’s go meet your guides as we walk towards the threshold.

In this season, your Samhain guides — whether ancestors, animal spirits, or aspects of your own deep knowing — are reaching out.

They move through candlelight, through intuition, through the quiet moments when the world goes still. You don’t have to chase them. Just open the space, light the flame, breathe — and listen.

✨ Ask them what they want you to release.
✨ Ask them what seed they are offering you for the winter ahead.
✨ Ask them how you can walk with greater authenticity and soul.

Ready!

I invite you to take a long, deep, luxurious breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Let your face relax, your jaw relax and the worries of the day drop to the floor like leaves from autumnal trees.

Then I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a glorious warm dark night sky, you feel safe, you feel supported and held and as the clouds pull away you see stars that will guide you. Breathe that in. Allow this gorgeous Feminine Darkness to gently wrap around you and guide you and then when you are ready pick a card or cards that call to you.

You picked yes?

Shall we go see?

FOREST TEMPLE

Enlightenment

The sound of delicate chanting fills the forest. You follow the sound, as you walk down a meandering path into a small clearing. Before you, a forest temple becomes visible. As you get closer, it feels that the chanting is penetrating deep into your soul. Something seems to be shifting within you. Everything is the same, yet everything is somehow different.

Meditate on the light within you and around you. Connect with the ever-present of the Divine. Right now your awareness is increasing. Your ability to understand the world is shifting. More and more, you can see situations from all points of view, and this creates an expansion in all parts of your life.

We can often get stuck in seeing the world from only your personal point of consciousness, which is dramatically restricting possibilities for you. A one-sided adamant view of life can block a vast influx of light, joy, and connection to the Creatrix.

Strict adherence to your beliefs can obstruct wonderful opportunities from flooding your life. Be willing to step outside your limited points of view and see the world from the others’ perspectives, and your life will expand.

With enlightenment, you’ll feel the expansion from a limited sense of self to an awareness of the cosmos around you. That loves you.

Positive changes are coming. You are lightening up; feel buoyant and free. Your connection to Spirit is deepening if you allow it. Old beliefs about who you are and what you deserve in life are falling away, replaced by incredible new paths.

EAGLE SPIRIT

Freedom

Eagle Spirit invites you onto her back, and you dwindle in size so that you can climb on. You hold on to the down beneath her feathers as she soars higher and higher. The forest looks smaller and smaller, yet you can see so clearly as you ascend above the clouds. You have never felt so free!

It’s time to break free and let your spirit fly! Be daring as you go beyond predictable behaviour. Fling your arms up to the heavens in joy.

Also, pay attention when you have let life or others restrict your freedom. Recognising this is the first step to reclaiming your power. Don’t allow yourself to be trapped by convention or the expectations of others. The truth is that you aren’t here on this earth to be ordinary, but to step beyond limitations and self-imposed boundaries.

You have the ability to choose your life on your terms. Perhaps you aren’t always free to create the exact circumstances of your life – but you’re certainly able to decide what meaning to give those situations. Select meanings that empower you, for this is the time to break free. Hold the intent that boundless freedom surges through you, and so it shall.

This is the time to express yourself. Don’t hold back. Choose life on your terms.

Don’t be trapped by the expectations of others.

DAFFODIL FAIRY

New Beginnings

You feel a tap on your shoulder, and in a flash of yellow, you see a Daffodil Fairy fly by you. In a high, sweet voice she says, “The best is yet to be! It’s time for a new beginning!” With glee, you race after her into the forest.

Life goes in cycles. Just as spring follows winter, a new cycle is beginning in your life. In the phases of the earth, the plants die in the fall so that there can be new birth in the spring – it’s the universal dance of death and rebirth. There’s a time to end and begin, and this is the close of one cycle and the beginning of another.

We associate the daffodil with spring, as it is one of the first flowers to emerge after the snows. Its shape echoes the feeling of trumpeting in the new season; its colour suggests vitality, radiance, and sunshine.

It’s time to wipe the slate clean; it’s time to release the old and start again.

It can be difficult to release familiar routines, situations, or relationships when they no longer empower you; however, your higher self encourages you to not cling to the old, but set sail into new waters. If you find yourself afraid to let go, you are urged to face your fear and allow yourself to stretch in a new direction.

The Creatrix is at your side, and wonderful opportunities will be born in your life. Wholeness occurs when you can say yes to both endings and beginnings.

It’s time to start a new project or a new cycle. Life force and vitality are emerging. Release that which doesn’t serve and support you. Make way for a new start!

Lol, you seriously can’t make this shit up! Sorry if swearing offends you, but you can’t! Wishing for you a beautiful Samhain, gift yourself Witchlight and Whispers if you feel called, but most importantly take the invitation that is being offered of stepping into the dark (in the Western Hemisphere) and really embrace yourself.

Big massive Pumpkin Smiles and may wee tiny Mars bars appear when you need them!

With love, light, and a whisper from the Otherworld,

Through Smoke and Starlight: Where Libra’s Balance Meets Samhain’s Magic.

Jenny Heston · 3:13 pm ·

Finding Balance and Magick in the Turning of the Seasons

What a glorious Thanksgiving weekend it was — full of good food, laughter, and golden autumn light! But the true highlight for me? Watching my youngest “monster” (as I affectionately call him) cross the finish line of his very first half marathon!

It was nothing short of epic — especially when I think back to three years ago, when an ATV accident crushed his ankle. He was pieced together with pins and determination, and to see him run 21 kilometres with strength, focus, and sheer tenacity brought tears to my eyes.

Proof, once again, that the human spirit is nothing short of miraculous.

The Libra New Moon — Returning to Center

As we move into the Libra New Moon on October 21st, we officially close Eclipse Season and step onto a brand new path.

Libra, ruled by Venus, invites us into harmony and balance. When the world feels like it’s spinning too fast — when responsibilities pile up, when deadlines and to-do lists start whispering louder — Libra gently calls us home to our center.

This is a time to pause, breathe, and ask:
✨ What does balance look like for me, right now?
✨ Where am I holding judgment — of myself or others — that I can lovingly release?
✨ What three small actions can I take today to restore harmony in my body, mind, and soul?

Even amidst the uncertainty that this New Moon brings (and there is a lot of planetary activity stirring the cosmic pot), balance is the thread that holds it all together.

Gratitude, too, helps us find our footing — honouring how far we’ve come and trusting that we are exactly where we need to be on the path forward.

Samhain Whispers and the Scent of Woodsmoke

And oh, can you feel it? Halloween and Samhain are almost here — that delicious threshold between worlds.

I absolutely adore this time of year: the costumes, the pumpkin carving (we created some wonderfully weird ones this weekend!), the crisp morning air, the smell of wood smoke drifting through the night, and the satisfying crunch of leaves under my boots as I wander.

Samhain (pronounced Sow-een) marks the third and final harvest, the Celtic New Year, and the time when the veil between worlds grows thin. It’s when we honour the ancestors, release what no longer serves us, and step into the mystery of transformation.

Nature mirrors this perfectly — trees shedding their leaves, the earth turning inward, and us doing the same. For me, “death” isn’t something to fear. It’s a release — of old stories, habits, or ways of being — so something new can emerge.

Samhain carries a deep, delicious energy: potent, mysterious, magical. It’s an invitation to turn inward, light a candle, and listen for the whispers of your soul.

And yes, my Samhain Bundle is coming soon — filled with rituals, reflections, and celebrations to help you honour this sacred turning. It will be released on the New Moon, so stay tuned!

So, with visions of pumpkins dancing in your head, the crisp scent of autumn on the breeze, and the crunch of leaves beneath your feet — let’s walk together into this next chapter.

This week, there is no guided visualisation, thus, I invite you to gently call back all the pieces of you that you might have left at the coffee store, the school, in your car, at your desk and breathe them all back to you. As you breathe, see yourself filled up with glorious gorgeous white light and let it pour through you and out your toes. When you feel settled in your body, invite in the energy of Samhain, the wisdom of the ancestors, the thinning of the veil and gently ask them to guide you as you pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see who wants to guide you this week.

WINGED SEER

The Winged Seer is an oracle angel: a being who can see the weavings of energy and thus the way events are set to unfold if the current energies and paths are followed. She then sends you your messages clairvoyantly, through your ability to see clearly, although your visions may seem anything but clear. As you grow to trust your own clear-seeing moments, you will have brighter and brighter flashes of insight, and you will be able to see exactly what is going on within a situation, in a flash.

As so many people hide the truth, even from themselves, it can be hard to receive a visit from me, because I will help you see when someone is camouflaging and half-telling truths, and you will also have insights that seem to come from supernatural sources. It is as if you have changed sight; you can see further, higher, and more deeply within.

You will experience flashes of the future and sudden understandings of the past, and you will be able to foretell likely outcomes. I am the eye of Ra, re-creating your future, and the Adrinka, the protective eye, that watches over you while you sleep, and if you follow through on what you now clearly see, there will be illumination, victory, and wisdom. Trust that sacred Sight.

You have asked for more information, asked to discover what you need to know. Now that the information has come to you, you must be courageous and take action based on what you cannot “logically” explain! It is important, now more than ever, to be honest about what you can see – but most of all, to be honest with your own self.

WITCH AT THE END OF THE WORLD

Storms fly about her, electrical whips crack through the heavy air with their bites of fire, and she sits among them, hugging her hourglass, holding everything together till the force creating the change has done its work.

When the Witch at the End of the World makes her appearance to you, you will know that something’s time has come. There can be no more delaying, for the change has begun. So the best thing for you to do now is prepare for this change.

Find solutions to challenges that will come up when the change comes. You will be fine, by the way, and all will be well, but there will be a time of seeming chaos and difficulty. If you are prepared, and ready to let go and change, and let something end, the little witch’s countdown will not affect you as it will affect others who refuse to acknowledge that changes are coming and become fearful at their inevitable approach.

There is nothing to fear, but plenty to prepare for. You will be safe, and well, and very ready to embrace the new world.

I am not wicked, but I am a witch, and changes are made when the world bends and shifts. I hold this hourglass up to you now so you know that the time for an ending is almost upon us. You can see the signs all about you – the strange weather, the hurricanes, the cyclones, the earth changes all about us – but so many simply say I am wicked for showing you this. They blame me for what they call the catastrophes, and they ignore the signs. They are with you, and it is time to be ready. We are all about to experience a huge change – and it will be for the better. But while we hold on to the old, the storms will blast us, and the land will shift, and self-healing will look like destruction.

There is nothing to be frightened of; only a voyage to weather, and you’ll make it through to the other side of the storm. The changes are part of our journey to a fifth-dimensional world, of the shift to a more peaceful planet, where shadows and light are loved and accepted. All is well.

STRANGE VALENTINE

Love doesn’t always look like we thought it would – thank goodness!

It’s in the strange and the surprising that the sweetest loves can be found, as this odd little pair have found, much to each one’s joy, comfort, and delight!

When this lovely pair, Strange Valentine, comes to visit, you are about to be gifted with love, romance, and friendship from an unexpected, even unusual, place! Don’t let differences keep you apart – because they are what is drawing you together, and when you are as delicate and fragile as you can be, someone as strong and protective as this gorgeous, friendly yeti can be just what you need!

You have an enormous amount of cosmic help at the moment – and it’s all focusing on the area of your love life. You will soon receive very good news regarding a relationship.

You will also do a lot of work on healing old wounds from past relationships, especially past long-term, serious relationships. Now, some of this news may not seem so great at the time.

But please give yourself a chance to absorb the lessons, because you are moving into beautiful new phase of your romantic life, where you will be free to create a wonderful new love life for yourself. Coming…very…soon!

You may experience a massive surge in emotional energy and in romantic beginnings. So it’s very likely you’ll attract, encounter, or simply bump into someone who reawakens long-lost feelings inside you, and who may not be your “type.” Hoorah!

I love how that reading unfolded, first talking about truth, to changes, to love. Aaaahhhhhh. So delicious lovely. May your nose be filled with fresh crisp air and may your feet jump between puddles and crunch leaves. Allow yourself to feel the energy pull you into our next season and trust in the mysteries and magick that are unfolding. Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week!

🍁 Grateful Hearts & Otherworld Whispers.

Jenny Heston · 3:03 pm ·

Gorgeous Soul,

This weekend we celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving — a time to gather around the table, share good food, and breathe deeply into gratitude for the abundance that surrounds us.

I hadn’t planned to do a reading, but I was “guided” (smack along the head) to do one.

This particular Thanksgiving carries an extra shimmer of magic. 🍂

We’re standing at the threshold of the Otherworld — that liminal space where the veil begins to thin, and the energies of Samhain start to stir.

It’s the season of deep reflection and ancestral connection.

A time when the seen and unseen dance closer, when whispers from beyond the veil weave through the autumn wind, reminding us that gratitude isn’t only about what we can touch and taste — it’s also about honouring the unseen blessings that guide and hold us.

When we give thanks now, we’re not just acknowledging the harvest on our tables — we’re recognizing the harvest of our lives.

🌾 The laughter that softens the hard days.
🌾 The lessons that shaped us in ways we didn’t expect.
🌾 The hands, hearts, and spirits — both living and ancestral — that walk beside us.

Gratitude grounds us in the midst of change.

It opens the door to joy, to remembrance, and to the sacred rhythms that pulse beneath it all.

So as we move toward Samhain, may your heart be full and your spirit open to the quiet magic of this season.

May you feel your ancestors close, your blessings abundant, and your belonging undeniable.

Okay, let’s crack on with the reading. When I asked who wanted to show up this week I laughed my soxs off when I saw it was The Divine Circus Oracle.

“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.“

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 an exploration!

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to go have a look?

DARK HARLEQUIN

Bells are ringing from deep inside. Something that once had to hide is seeking your attention. It wants out! It wants to be free! As you release what was once shut away, your discomfort shall turn to glee.

You are a spiritual adventurer! You are not afraid to go to the edge of what you know, of who you have believed yourself to be. Even when before you there lies the darkness of unknown worlds, of undiscovered parts of you, even when you feel uncertainty, discomfort or doubt, you are still willing to figure out what it’s all about,

So you’ve come to a place in you, and in your life, where you don’t know. You don’t know what’s happening. You don’t know how to work through it. You don’t know who you are (well, not all of who you are). You don’t know what you don’t know. You are at the point of not knowing because you are growing. There will be surprises. There will be discoveries. You’ll feel awkward at times, like you are trying to see in the dark.

Don’t be afraid to let there be some inner rattling and rampaging. You are at a time when you are naturally diving into the darkness for a healing purpose. So ask the difficult questions. Do things you wouldn’t normally do. Experiment with thinking in ways you wouldn’t normally think.

Be willing to let everything change for the better by first letting go of how things are now. The messier your inner world seems to be right now, the more you can expect complete and utter transformation as a new order comes into form. Expect the unexpected, for you were born to grow into what is happening now.

It’s time to let the wild thing out!

THE PROUD PIERETTE

If you were proud of who you are and everything you have learned in your life, free from shame, guilt or judgement, what would you choose for yourself today? The choices you make for yourself from a place of feeling good are going to be more loving and helpful than anything from a place of self-judgement. You’ve nothing to regret, you’ve learned a lot and you are a beautiful unique being on a wild divine journey. Be kind to yourself. Keep your head up! Then it will be easier to keep growing and glowing.

Dear wild one, have you felt like you’ve lost your footing? Got a bit clumsy? Made a mistake? Have you been second-guessing your choices? Don’t you dare doubt you! Be proud of all you’ve done and how far you’ve come. Never be ashamed of who you are, or the journey you’ve taken.

If you feel that life is getting you down, or you should have, or could have, made different decisions in life – be reassured, you are doing a great job! You are meant to have learning experiences. What matters is that you choose to learn. And you do! In your own time and your own way, you make sense of things, and you grow wiser and stronger as a person.

If you feel any ridicule, judgement or shaming is coming from those around you – trust you are stronger and wilder and more beautiful and true than any of that mean-spirited fearfulness. Let the mud that is being slung slide right off or remain stuck in the hands of those throwing it your way. Keep your sense of inner dignity intact. Never make yourself smaller to placate the fear in another’s heart. Take pride in who you are.

Be proud to be you! And know that this is a way to respect and honour the creative loving power of the universe that created you!

MEANT FOR YOU

You’ve voiced your intent, setting in motion a natural creative process. What you want has been summoned forth and is now headed your way. Don’t hesitate, refuse to receive, or pass this gift on to another. It is meant for you. Grab it! Within this new opportunity is exactly what you have been waiting for….what you have been wanting to create, what truly makes your heart sing.

What is rightfully yours is – or very soon will be – right in front of you. Caught up in a spiralling wave of new beginnings, it is time to reach out and grab what is headed your way. Opportunity is the universe believing in you. Return the compliment by accepting what is being offered with open arms and a trusting heart. You’ll be glad you did.

Don’t worry if this opportunity seems to be leading you down a different path to what you expected. All paths lead us to where we need to be. Sometimes the universe just has a better idea of what will get us to our destination at the perfect time, and along the pathway that will be of most benefit to all. Trust what is happening. Accept that you deserve good things to happen to you, and don’t be shy.

Now is your time to step up, open your mouth (and your arms) and say, “Thank you! I accept!”

What a glorious reading for this Canadian Thanksgiving! I invite you to use the energy of this day to really focus on all the people, places, situations and things that you are grateful for and to release and surrender those that don’t serve you. Have a glorious week and see you next Monday. Huge hugs and squeezes.
