Weekly Reading

Pluto, Revolution and the Full Wolf Moon.

Happy Magickal, Miraculous, Misty, Manifesting, Monday!

How are you most gorgeous bean?  How are you feeling?

I don’t know about you, but the end of last week brought up a lot of “delicious opportunities for growth”, where I could really see where I wasn’t standing in my power, strength or I was and it was tweaking some people. Sigh.  

Boundaries really tweak some people.  

Which doesn’t surprise me much as we have Pluto moving signs, a Leo Full Moon (aka The Wolf Moon) this week and we are just coming out of the introspective first 3 weeks of this year.  Yes?

So let’s talk about Pluto – as you may be thinking, meh, what’s the big deal?

Pluto is that delicious planet that we continually bump off our planetary list, but it still holds ground – big ground.   

On January 20, Pluto started into Aquarius, marking the final time the planet associated with death, destruction and the underworld will retrograde between the zodiac signs ruled by Saturn. 

For the last 15 years, Pluto has been in Capricorn, driving global institutions, organisations and empires to success but as it enters Aquarius, it will influence transformation, personal growth, power dynamics, sexuality, revolution and technology, pushing us to plumb the depths of our subconscious. 

This is a big deal, people.

 In fact, Pluto’s movement into this innovative zodiac sign only happens every 248 years. 

So the fact that it’s happening right now, during this time of endless back-to-back(-to-back) unprecedented events is … notable.

Yeah, so what Jen?

Why is this transit so influential?

“Pluto takes about 248 years to orbit the sun and is one of the few planets that makes important moves only a few times during an average human lifetime. 

This sets the foundation for revolution, change and transformation for generations to come. 

The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was from 1778 to 1798 and this period was a game changer in the history of mankind with important events like The French Revolution and the Irish Uprising taking place during these years.”

So when the planet of transformation gets tangled up with subversive Aquarius, we should expect some radical dismantling to occur, as well as some extraordinary developments that may change life as we know it.

Now do you see why I started with Pluto?

Then on Thursday January 25th we have the first Full Moon of 2024 – the Leo/Wolf Moon.

This Full Moon of January is a symbol reminding us of the power we hold inside ourselves.  (Which ties into the 8 energy of this year!)

Like that gut feeling you sometimes get. 

Remember to trust yourself and your intuition because you hold raw knowledge inside of you infused by Nature. 

The Wolf Moon’s spiritual meaning represents intuition, untamed wisdom, and wild ancient lore.

When we hear wolves howl from the dark depths of January’s moon, it’s like a story from the past, echoing wisdom through time. 

So my darling one, there’s a lot swirling around.  Thus, if you feel off kilter or just want to snuggle up and be quiet.  Do it!  

If you want to delve deeper into the Wolf Moon and play with some ideas, I’ve got you covered.

Now with all that being said, let’s crack on with the reading.

These are glorious new guides (which my guides made me go find, lol).  So let me introduce you.

“Wild women and wildlife, along with the wild, sacred spaces of our planet, are endangered species.  After millennia of surviving a patriarchy that would plunder the natural resources of both inner and lives, humanity has begun to cry out for the sacred feminine. 

It takes a brave heart to reach out to her, to claim her despite the forces that insist on perfection and control, but in kitchens and studios and gardens and boardrooms across the planet, and in our very souls, we have begun to cultivate sanctuary for her.  

We dare to speak of what is vulnerable and receptive, what is nurturing and authentic, what is divinely cooperative and creative instead of competitive and coercive.  

We brazenly demand a juicy life, one in which we are allowed to embrace our own widish nature, rather than live another day in the dry and thirsty land of conformity.”

So dear heart, take a breath, a glorious deep breath in and then blow it all out.  Allow your lungs to tighten and expel all the stale air.  Take another breath like that (not a gasping), but a slow in through your nose, breathe down to your toes and then expel it all out with a sound if that works for you.

Are you here now?  You feel a bit more grounded?

From that place I invite you to allow the 8 energy to swirl (if you don’t know what I’m talking about, read last week’s reading).  As that starts to swirl, the energy of choosing from your heart, inviting your inner warrior in, and  putting yourself first…… Let the energy of this glorious Wolf Moon meld in, that sense of trust, old wisdom, watch them dance together.

Then from that place pick a card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what these glorious guides want to share with you this week.

REST DEEP

Be easy with you.  

You are home to a soul, a breathing piece of the eternal magic.

Just like the swan who glides over open waters, you too can move with grace, but only when you gift yourself with quiet and ease.

These come with rest.

Allow yourself to have time just for you.

As we cocoon in this winter space, allow yourself to create a safe space for solitude and stillness.  Let your soul not be just a whisper, but to talk to you.

When you do this – Wild Woman Rises.

HOLD TRUE TO YOUR VISION

Only you know the sacredness of your vision, which means that you have to consult your inner guide for directions.

Expect those directions to run counter to what others are doing.  

Stay the course.

You can’t blaze your own trail while following someone else’s footsteps.

No one can understand your vision as well as you can, because it has been gifted to you in particular, with your genius, gifts, vulnerabilities and foibles.  

You’re uniquely qualified for the job, so go for it.

When we trailblaze in the name of authenticity, Wild Woman rises.

AWAKEN

It’s time to awaken, it’s time to step into your soul and being.

Sometimes, to achieve your awakening, you have to engage in the world around you, endeavouring to be a part of cultural consciousness and truth seeking.

And sometimes, to maintain your awakening, you have to shut your eyes to the world and go to the internal refuge that is your personal consciousness.

Your soul, your wise voice that closes out the external noise and opinions.  

When we cultivate a practice of seeing that is true to our unique vision, and balance that with the wellness of all sentient beings, Wild Woman rises.

Wowzer, Holy Hannah, what glorious guides for this week with Pluto and the Wolf Moon. But my question for you is – are you willing?  Are you willing to embrace or embody the energy that chose you? If so, you may be a candidate for our 9 month glorious container that starts at Chinese New Year.  Have a stupendous week, stay warm, be kind and see you next week.

Big hugs!

2024 is Here and this is an 8 year (and Year of the Wood Dragon) has many Wonderful Invitations!

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Meaningful, Miraculous, Manifesting Monday!

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

Welcome to January 2024.  

A New Year filled with possibilities, potential and rich in Spiritual lessons.  

If you remember, we started this new year with Mercury going direct after being retrograde.  So the first 3 weeks of this month are all about integration, and being.  It’s not about dashing around and immediately going into action with resolutions!

I will say that this Gregorian Calendar of “It’s a New Year ” puts a lot of expectations on people, and they are normally negative ones.  Which thoroughly irritates me, as it is something that is pushed in the media, magazines, and our collective culture.  

To me, resolutions are made because – “everyone does this”,  we should all make resolutions as it’s a New Year.  Mmmmmm, having done them for years (because that was expected), they are normally based on fixing something about oneself or not feeling enough.  

An example.  As someone who used to go to the gym daily, I would see people flood in at the beginning of January with the resolution of “I have to get fit and buff”.  Mmmm, okay.  By early February you never saw them again.

Why?

Because the intention wasn’t based on the energies that are in play, nor in how they wanted to feel.

So let’s look at 2024, in Numerology this coming year is an 8 year.

(Last year was more of an introspective and soul searching year).

8 is the number that takes everything and amplifies it!

It’s the year to really step into your power, your strength and there will be lots of lessons about having the courage to be yourself and to think outside the box.

If you have been a people pleaser, wowzer, there are going to be lots of lessons around this to help you finally release this pattern. 

So this is where the invitation for you is to really tune in, own your worth, get comfortable with uncomfortable emotions, and be a very active participant in creating your life (not a stand on the side victim).  

Throw in the energy of the Dragon (which we will talk about in the next few weeks), and wowzer it’s a deliciously potent year.  

The words that come up strongly are Heart based, Strength, Authenticity and Personal Power.

So ask yourself these questions:

What does your soul want you to share with you?

What would it feel like to move in the world from a place of ease, alignment and to really thrive?

How do you want to make your mark in the world?

Last but not least, How do you want to live? And how do you want to feel whilst doing that?

(So there is some musing for you to play with!)

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

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

“What is life if not a Divine Circus?  Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us  moments earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what the first guides of 2024 want to share with you.

JOKER IS WILD

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

RED COUNTESS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SILVER SIREN

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Last reading of the Year. Solstice is Here! And Gifts!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Marvellous, Magnificent, Majestic, Merry, Manic, Manifesting Monday!

Hello delicious lovely!  How are you?  I am sooooo looking forward to Solstice and I have three Solstice gifts for you! (Which you will discover as you read.)

I want to wish you an amazing holiday season – however you celebrate, and to say thank you.  Thank you for being here, thank you for all your lovely emails and messages.  Thank you for being you and sharing with me.  

Solstice arrives on Thursday  the 21st and I am thrilled, as not only is it Solstice, it’s my youngest’s birthday!

But what does the energy of Solstice bring to you?

At the Winter Solstice, when the world appears to stand still, it can serve as a moment out of time, an opportunity to reconnect with our own souls once again.

There’s a very special stillness about the season we are entering. Even though everything appears dead & frozen in the outside world, a new cycle is beginning. You can sense there is magic brewing deep down in the dark.

Winter is like being in the chrysalis stage in the evolution of the butterfly. It’s the time when the caterpillar is wrapped up quietly, in the dark of her cocoon. To the outside world it doesn’t look like anything is happening. (And this is one of the most challenging things about embracing rest: to the outside world it doesn’t look like anything is happening. Our brains scream at us, telling us “you’re not doing anything. You’re wasting your time.”) 

But actually, deep in the dark, a quiet transformation is happening: the caterpillar is evolving into a magnificent butterfly.

This is the same transformation your spirit, and all of nature, is undergoing this season. To the outside world life is still & quiet, there’s no movement. You don’t see anything meaningful happening.

But in the darkness, hidden deep inside, a powerful transformation is occurring. You are evolving into a whole new place in your life.  

It’s a time of dreaming.

Dreaming up the dreams of everything that will grow in your life this year.

Dreaming up new plans, new ideas, new ways of being that will blossom & grow, and become bountiful harvests in the year ahead.

The dreams of everything to come this year are being sparked in your winter’s rest.

Winter is the season when things are revealed by turning deep within yourself.

Embracing the quiet & the darkness – recognizing that you don’t need to do anything for the magic to unfold. 

This is the season of receiving.

Are you willing to receive?  

The first gift I have for you is the delightful story of the Yuletide Faeries, a wonderful story to read as an adult, share with children or grandchildren.  

The second gift I have for you is a 20 minute guided visualisation called Winter Solstice – Heart Weaving.    This lovely guided visualisation walks you into the warm dark, and you are going to meet some amazing guides and allies.  Come dance with archetypes, myth, healing and shamanic transformation.  And weave something new.

The third gift I have for you is the lovely process of The Omen Days!  

And for those who have asked how long “Opening the Doors on 2024 Reading” will be available, it will be available until December 26th, as will The Book of Winter Solstice.

Let’s crack on with the reading.  When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share this week I thought to myself – perfect!   These glorious guides have only come out once in public, so this is quite delicious, and I love how they decided there were going to be 4 to choose from!

So my darling one,  just settle.  Breathe in the stillness and allow your heart to open and expand and be willing to receive.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug on your soul strings.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

SISTERHOOD OF RECIPROCITY

Tend to your partnerships.  

This could be a time to review or negotiate business, renew romance or friendship, or nurture the very partnership you have with your own soul.  

Much of our world suffers from a lack of understanding what our ancestors knew so well: all life is dependent on the generosity of our planet.  There is no thriving without her good graces for food, water, shelter and beauty, and we’d do well to remember it with reciprocity.

Is it time to share?  Celebrate her bounty?  Give back to her resources?  To your relationships or communities?

Long ago we honoured the lack of resources in the winter season with hopeful light-giving ceremonies.  We celebrated the harvest with offerings and gratitude.  We marked each season, each birth, death and love affair by honouring our Earth Mother as benefactress.

Carry this practice forward, know that all parts of your life are interdependent with the elements, creatures and plants of the earth, the same way that your healthy psyche relies on all parts working together.  

Balance your genius with  your shadow.  Reconcile love with fear.  Strike a balance between logic and emotion.  

All parts of your life that you are proud of must dance with those monstrous parts you fear in order to experience a bountiful, creative life.

Take stock of where you are entwined in a healthy partnership, and where you are not.  

This is a time for tending the dance of reciprocity.  

W.I.T.C.H (Women in Total Control of Herself)

Control. 

No woman alive today needs a dictionary to know what control means within a toxic patriarchy.  

She’s experienced it a thousand different ways before she’s hit puberty.  

It’s alive in the curves of her psyche, in the expanse of her hips, in the marrow of her bones.  

It is domination and restraint.

But in a balanced psyche and in a blanched culture, control can mean something else entirely.

A W.I.T.C.H experiences control through cooperation rather than competition.

She’s engaged with all the parts of her psyche in an attempt to coordinate rather than dominate.

You are being asked, right now, to embrace all the inhabitants of your inner realm, because each deserves respect and a place at the table.  Even the unruly, the inconvenient, the ugly.  

Making a space for all under the banner of wild inclusion and giving voice to the shame, malice and anger, as well as every other outlawed part of the psyche, is the way we create integrity, ensuring that no part of our inner realm is involved with factions, divisions, or rebellions.

When your intent is to create rather than compete, you don’t have to dominate.  Your influence is enough.

This is power-with rather than power-over.

Invite whatever is bothering you today into the realm of inclusion and assert your authority.  

THE TRAIL BLAZER

This is a pioneering moment.

In order to chart where you’re going and empower the path making, you must know your place.

Only when you know your deservedness and embody  your inherent value can you move with the confidence and radiance required to create your own path.

It’s time to shift your allegiance from pleasing to pleasure, from subservient to subversive, though the very act of claiming your inner knowing as the highest authority.  

You will then be willing to abandon everyone else’s expectation and approval before you will abandon yourself.  

Stop fearing your path and start blazing it, loyal to the visions in your head and the longing of your heart.  Trust your intuition to guide you to the next right thing for you, even when you can’t see the entire path or explain it to a mind of logic.

Stop looking for the footprints of those who have gone before you.

Don’t settle for how it’s been for others.

Blaze your own trail.  

SIREN OF SURRENDER

This is a time to let go.

Although underappreciated, there is power in surrender.

A wise sage once advised, “What we resist persists.”

While you may not yet see a new way to go, the old way is closed.  Stop banging your head and hands on the door that refuses to open.  If it doesn’t open, it’s not your door.

This is a moment to acknowledge what isn’t working, and what alternatives are not yet clear, and surrender to that wide open field of unknowing.

Understand that there will be times when further action is wasted.  

Exerting more effort is futile, as it’s only bringing frustration and discouragement.

Know that while society would encourage you to keep pushing, applauding you as you battle and bruise your way through this path, this is a patriarchal paradigm whose time has ended.

Instead, embrace the flow, trust when it leads you to a dead end that there is another way, and it will open when it’s ready.

The days of white-knuckle resilience are over.

Everything is happening for you, not to you, so let go of your original expectation and let yourself experience the generosity of flow.  

Ahhh, my heart is filled with joy as I see the cards my guides picked.  Wishing you an amazing holiday season.  Please help yourself to the free gifts and pick an Opening the Doors on 2024.  I am going to spend time being like a caterpillar in a cocoon and relax, rest, read and play.  See you in January.  Big hugs and big love.  Thank you.

May you be blessed,

May you be happy,

May you be peaceful,

May you be healthy,

May you be safe,

May you awaken to the light of your true nature.

Last New Moon of 2023, Solstice, Omen Days and Mercury Retrograde! Huzzah!

· ·

Happy Mellow, Mothering, Meditative, Mindful, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

Okay, grab a large cuppa of something warm and magickal, as we have so much to chat about this week!  Are you ready?  You settled and cosy?  

Let’s see, we have the last New Moon of 2023 on the 12th, (Mercury goes retrograde on that day as well).  Notice I put that in brackets so that you didn’t freak as it is contained, lol! 

We have Solstice (which I frigging love) rapidly approaching. 

The glorious Omen Days course (which I hope you will join – it’s a game changer to putting the year to bed and creating something for 2024).

And Personal Theme readings!

So where should we start?

Personally, I am going to start with Omen Days, aka the Sacred Days and Yuletide. These are the glorious days that happen from Boxing Day to January 6th (do you see why we have the song “12 Days of Xmas?”- hijacked from the Omen Days.)

These are days that are reckoned with at the end of the year to catch the Roman calendar up with the Solar Calendar.

As such these days between December 26th and January 6th are considered to be time out of time.  Almost like you’ve slipped the bounds of the normal calendar.  And you’re in an in-between space.  A liminal space.  

Interestingly in our culture the same is true.  That period between Xmas and the first days of the New Year tends to be a very amorphous time; a time when you very much feel like you’re in transition or in limbo.

This is where the magic gets created for 2024.  

This is a different way of closing the year …

The Omen days are a beautiful opportunity for you to process, release and close the old year, and subsequently open yourself to something new – but in a more feminine-mystical way. 

This a welcome and soothing counterpart to society’s more Yang-oriented obsession on progress and moving forward.  

THIS IS NOT A THING TO ADD TO YOUR TO-DO LIST, THIS IS A BE! NOURISH! 

And as I mentioned – I have created a glorious course with all sorts of yumminess that will have you ditching your “New Year’s Resolutions” with abandonment.  And best of all it is my Solstice gift to you!  (Yes, that does mean free.)  

I would love for  you to experience a different way of putting 2023 to bed and envisioning 2024.  One that you can feel in your bones, and cells.  That calls to your ancient memories.  

So why am I bringing that up first?

Because the New Moon in Sagittarius that happens on the 12th of the 12th,  invites us to line up our arrow, take our aim, and then trust in the wind! Life is a ride, there is only so much we can control. So perhaps overall, that is the message this New Moon has for us.

Set your intentions, focus on healing, acknowledge your intuition, move slowly, but ultimately, trust the ride!

1212 reminds us of completion, wholeness, and greater wisdom.

So with Mercury retrograde happening on the same day (isn’t that fun?) “You do need to keep in mind the deeper levels, it is a powerful time for trusting our intuition and paying attention to our senses beyond the typical five.

Mercury Retrograde, happening on the same day as the New Moon, will heighten its energy and thin the veil. We may feel a little indecisive or confused, or instinctively feel that all the facts have not been presented to us.

When Mercury Retrograde is involved, moving slowly and methodically and trusting our intuition is important. With the veil thin, we have the potential to receive clearer guidance from our dreams, intuition, and higher self.”

Okay, now do you see how all the pieces – Omen Days, New Moon, Mercury Retrograde and Personal Theme Readings tie in?

Oh hang on, I forgot to mention Personal Theme Readings – or Opening the Doors to 2024 as I call them.  Instead of writing about it (and making you question when I am going to shut up), you can pop over and see if it resonates for you.  

My glorious email community got first dibs on Friday last week.

Wow, that was a lot to impart (and I hope you absorbed most of it).  Let’s crack on with the reading!

Okay so when I asked my glorious giddy guides who they wanted to play with this week.  I was a tad surprised!  Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to do so would be rude!)

At the edge of the mind awaits the holy wilderness of the soul.  

It beckons you, like a great forest filled with vast mysteries and wonders.  While this mystical realm exists in a higher dimension, beyond normal reality, it is real nevertheless.  To enter this mystical realm, it’s simply a matter of having an open heart and an open mind.  

In this healing and holy place, long-sought answers to your deepest questions become known.  Ancient wisdom emerges.  Revelations about your future are revealed.  Hidden talents and abilities are activated with you.  It’s a place where miracles unfold, and your spirit can fly. 

 In the deepest sense you remember who you are.  

Okay gorgeous bean, here we are with the holiday season rapidly approaching, and yet the place of Solstice.  The longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.  

The place of release and moving into the warm, feminine darkness that nurtures and supports.  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 soft gentle rain drops or snowflakes. 

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?

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!

FOGGY BOG

Patience

The fog in the forest is so dense, you can’t see your hands in front of your face.  You take a step forward; the soil is soft and spongy.  You realise that you are standing in a bog and to go forward is to risk sinking deeper into the mud.

The best strategy is to be still and wait for the fog to lift.

Be quiet and still.  The time is not right to go forward now.  

It’s hard to see what lies ahead, and the truth of things may not be as they initially appear.  Events that seem one way may, in fact, be completely different.

Just as the egret exhibits great patience as he waits for a fish to emerge, so too must you be still and allow the truth to emerge.  In this state of obscured visibility, your imagination can surge forward and spark your intuition.

If you can wait long enough, your sixth sense will be ignited.  Listen to your inner yearnings and pay attention to those seemingly random thoughts.  

Water represents emotions, feelings, and the subconscious.  When the water becomes condensed as fog, it obscures the true shape of things.  We can’t see clearly the way we can in the light.

Don’t allow unexamined emotions to overwhelm your growth.

Have patience.  Wait until the fog lifts before taking action.  The truth will emerge in time; you just need to go deeper.  

Follow your intuition.  

GUARDIANS OF THE LAND

Protection

“You are safe.”  These words seem to emerge from the land and radiate from the trees to echo in your soul.  You hear these words again and again.  

The Sacred Guardians of the Land are whispering to you, “You are safe.”  

You know that you are protected and cared for.  You can feel tendrils of their loving energy wrap around you and embrace you.  Their unleashed power cocoons you in safety.

You are enough, just as you are.  No matter what has happened or occurred in the past, the truth is that you are absolutely and unconditionally enough as you are.

You are loved.  You are cherished.  

Do not be concerned about outside forces and the judgements and expectations of others.  You are protected in your own energy field.  Envision a protective shield around yourself and around your home.  Spend time with people and in situations that uplift your energy rather than draining it.

You are safe and surrounded by a glorious protective shield.  You are not alone; your life is guided and protected by higher forces.

Within this knowing-ness you can soar to great heights.  Breathe wee one.  Trust.  

Oh my giddy aunt!  Those glorious beasts were delicious.  How did they resonate for you?  So darling one, wishing you a week of ease, grace and flow.  Don’t get tangled in any one else’s stuff, tinsel or lights.  If it resonates for you to come join Omen Days – please do.  If  you want to find out your Personal Theme, please do.  If you just want to be left the fuck alone and celebrate Solstice as you like – grab the Winter Solstice book.

See you next week, for the last reading of 2023 (as I am taking the Omen Days off to Be, Create, Plan, Cocoon and Relax.)

Holy Hannah it’s December! What does December hold in store for You?

· ·

Happy Musical, Merry, Muddling, Mysterious, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

Holy Hannah, December is already here!  How are you doing?  How are you feeling?

I set my intention about how I wanted to move through December by going to a glorious candlelit concert in Christ Church Cathedral on the night of December 1st.  

500 or more candles, a glorious quartet and an amazing young opera singer.  It was soothing, healing and serene.

Which totally explains all the messages that have been handed to me about how to support and help this month, with the swirling energies of December and my guides and I have been mapping 2024!  

Thus, we are doing a “Theme reading” – what is your personal theme for 2024? 

Each year we get a new tarot card that lets us know what will be in store. The card shows us what is on the horizon and where there is work to be done and what to expect from 2024.  

This reading is designed to support and empower you for the year ahead as we dive deep and explore the themes and energy of your theme card.  

Many of you found this super helpful last year and have requested that it be available again.  

So voila, it is!

Now this isn’t just light and fluffy as they are melding in all the energies of 2024 with your theme to give you a delicious overview of what is being asked of you in the coming year.

There is also going to be a glorious Winter Solstice Guide.

And what’s super cool is we are approaching Solstice, and the time between Solstice and into the early New Year is a glorious liminal time. A time to really dream your seeds into being and to deepen into who we are, what we want, how we want to feel and what needs to be reset. 

So I have created a glorious free course and a group for everyone!

And yes, in January their is a glorious MasterMind Circle with a select amount of seats starting in the New Year where  you will learn energy management, boundaries, values, self mastery, collapsing old mirrors and so much more.  But we will talk more about that later.

So the top 3 will be coming out at the end of the this week, and if you are on the email list you will get first pick for the “theme reading” spots.  

Why am I doing this? 

I was in a grocery shop the last week before December started and the Xmas music was being piped through every speaker, and I noticed this chap (employee), looking very “pained” and fed up. 

So I stopped to have a chat, he shared that listening to Xmas music for 8 hours a day for the next 4 weeks will drive him nuts!  How with his father and best friend dying in this last year he was feeling crushed under the expectations of others.  The expectation to be sparkly, bright and merry.   Fair enough! 

So I listened, gave him a few suggestions and asked him if he would like a hug (which he did, even if it was only one armed at the moment).  

A few days later I had been invited to co-convene a group for women in their early thirties, and when I asked – “What weighs on your heart right now?”  The Tsunami of sharing and emotion that came pouring out was incredible!

Again, the overwhelm, the being tired, the expectations that they should have it all together and create “the perfect Hallmark Xmas for their family”.  The desire to cocoon, hibernate, slow it down instead of speeding it up (but what would the in-laws think?)  Wowzer.

Now I see why my guides were adamant last week that we do a reading pertaining to bandwidth and boundaries!

I love the holiday season – but what I love is the darkness, the sparkly lights, the turning inward, time spent creating, listening and cocooning.  Time spent in a meaningful way with people I love and as we get closer to Winter Solstice – dancing in the liminal time and taking time for me.

So let’s recreate what this month can mean for each of us in a way that nourishes us, supports us and heals us.  Thus, allowing us to step into 2024 with ease and grace, yes?

As Lena shares, the theme for December is: “Revalue and Reprioritize”.

We are still in sorting, shifting, decluttering, releasing, re-organizing mode, but now with a focus on what we value and where our priorities have been that need to be examined and shifted to accommodate recent insights, growth and evolution. 

This month is going to require discipline if we are to stick to the task of uncovering our truth as opposed to what we were imprinted to believe. 

We have been taught by culture what to value, what to strive for, who to be with, what to do, how to act and what not to wish for. 

This is all up for review this month and the discipline will be to keep on track and not be distracted by other people’s drama, reactions, projections and process.

Do you see how this all ties in together?  

What do you value?  Peace or other people’s expectations?  What nourishes and supports you? (And for the record, that is NOT selfish, it’s vital.)

Okay, enough chuntering on.  When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide, The gorgeous Faery Blessing cards were most adamant!  How positively perfect!   

To be Blessed, or to offer a Blessing is a powerful thing.  

Now if these cards are new to you (which they probably are), please let me introduce them (as it’s rather rude not to!)  “Faeries are present in every droplet of water, every blade of grass – they are everywhere there is a trace of nature – thus every field, flower, and forest is theirs.  

They inhabit the wild rainforests and the old castles; they dance within standing stones and burial mounds; they are on the top of mountains and within the grove deep in the valley; and they appear in the cracks in the pavement and beneath the cities in the old, tangled tree roots.  

Faeries are part of this world, and they were here before we were born into this world, and they know us better than we know ourselves.  

The blessings of the faeries can bring us back into relationship with ourselves, back into relationship with the elements, so that we can become more at home within the world, while creating a personal world which supports our dreams, our wishes, and our purpose. ”

Please read that last line again. Bring us back into a relationship……..

So darling one, with yesterday being the first candle of advent – the candle of Hope.  Stepping into the darkness  to release, there is a place for Hope. 

But what is Hope?

“Hope is a feeling of trust, security, and a reason to keep going. It is a passionate desire of our heart. It is a feeling of expectation and a longing for a certain thing to happen.” – Verity Russell

So let me ask – What do you Hope for?

Thus with the thought of releasing and filling any space with Hope, I invite you to close your eyes down and just breathe.  

For those of you who want to go deeper there is a lovely guided visualisation for you to explore Hope.  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 on then sweetie, let’s go have a look!

A BLESSING OF A SAFE PLACE IN THE WORLD.

The Faery gift of a sanctuary, a space in which to fell completely supported and loved.

The Faeries know what it is like to find the safe places in the world – for theirs are under siege, and have been for such a long time.  The faeries know how to find the little home in the forest or the garden that is growing wild, the roots of old trees and the hollows beneath the sacred hills.

In these places, they have grown stronger and stayed safe, and they now transfer to you a part of this gift.  You will now find places and spaces within the world where you will feel free to be completely yourself, where you, too, can grow strong and bright again, and need have no fear.

Let there be a shelter and a sanctuary for you and your soul, where you can learn what it is you are meant to do next, and where there is no harsh word spoken, only guidance that can help ease us all into the next stage of our lives.

Let the safe spaces become our homes and our workplaces, our friendships and our schools.  Let the world become a safer space, and let the natural world shelter you with her turnings and showings of the changes about you.

Make not a fortress of this space you find, but let it begin to grow in your heart, so that wherever you go, others feel safe with you, and the world changes, in small but bright and beautiful ways, all as a result of this blessing of the faeries.

Blessings of a sanctuary, a safe space to you, friend. 

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING OF AWEN.

The Faery gift of Divine and Flowing Inspiration.

Let the faeries bless you now with their gift of the Awen, the inspirational flow of energy that can bring to life inspirational new projects, friendships, wisdom, and understanding.  

With every breath you take you absorb the Awen, and you feel more connected, more unique, more divine, more magickal.

Let the Awen come to you, now, tender and new as a bud, and 

let yourself feel the blessing surround you with a visionary new approach to your life.

Let yourself drink down the faery magick of the Awen, and let its sweetness and mystery uplift and re-engage you in life’s every moment.  

May the divine breath of the sacred trees be yours.  May the ways of the creatures of the sky, the land, the sea, and the fire be known to you.

May you know that you now can change, and learn, and study from nature herself in wonderful ways, and thus this life is now full of possibilities.  

When the faery blessing that is the precious gift of the Awen arrives from the Tylweth Teg, know that its blessing will allow you to be wise, yet filled with wonder, and to rejoice in the gift of this life

Blessings of the faeries to you, and of the Awen, friend.

BLESSED BE.

.A BLESSING OF STILLNESS.

The faery gift of pause, calm, and opportunity to be tranquil.

It is this moment, the one long moment before all the other moments, with their cares and responsibilities, gather about you.

Let the faeries give you their gift of time, their blessing of the long moment to gather about you and pause within, while you cease that must be done.  

Pause now, and let them take you within – either within your own self, to the place  you have nurtured there, the grove within, or to the grove, or to the sea, the lake or the river, the tree or the garden, the fireplace or the rocking chair, and be still awhile, human child.  

And in this space, let calm return.

Let peace quietly sit beside you and talk to you of how much there is to be glad for.  Let an old friendship reignite, the one between you and your soul – and for these long moments between all the other moments, let yourself be taken into that world between the worlds and be still.

And when you return, there will be great presence to you – and you will be restored to your own centre once again.

BLESSED BE.

Well that was quite delicious if I do say so myself!  Sanctuary, Inspiration and Stillness – the perfect messages for this month!  Whoot!  So glorious gorgeous ones, I wish for you a blessing of Hope, Ease and Grace as you move through this month.  Be kind to yourself, and if you are part of our email community you will get first dibs on all the offerings.  Big hugs.
