Divine guidance

Summer Solstice is Here and the Book of Summer Solstice is Ready! So let’s open up the Portal!

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

Summer Solstice is coming, Summer Solstice is coming! Whoot!

This Sunday, June 20th at 11:53pm PST, is the Summer Solstice and I am so looking forward to celebrating it. Every year has been filled with different ways of celebrating, different rituals and different intentions/offerings and the harvest that I have reaped from these has been mind blowing! (As in, you seriously can’t make this shit up!)

I know I said last week that on Thursday you would receive an update about the Book of Summer Solstice and if there was going to be a reading special. However, Mercury Retrograde had different ideas and tech would not comply nor work for a few days. Apologies! However, we have it all sorted and the Book of Summer Solstice is done (along with an incredible guided visualisation), and there will be a reading special that will start the day after Solstice.

Now if you have no clue about Summer Solstice or Litha as this celebration is called, as well as Midsummer’s Eve, I will give you a quick and dirty and if you want to find out more, you will most certainly experience it in the most amazing B.O.S.S! (Book of Summer Solstice).

What is the Book of Summer Solstice you may be asking?

This is an amazing 39 page creation filled with Lore, Magick, Spellwork, Deities, Crystal and Chakra work and glorious rituals – both easy and more complex. It is the perfect accompaniment to support you in harnessing the powerful energy of light, manifestation and abundance this Summer Solstice.

I will be honest – this normally retails for $79 – HOWEVER – to honour one of the intentions I have set for Solstice this year, it will be available for $15 (and that includes an amazing 15 minute guided visualisation), for the next 10 days. Or you can access the guided visualisation on it’s own.

So let’s explore Solstice a wee bit.

Solstice comes from the Latin words sol, meaning Sun and sistere, meaning to come to a stop or stand still. On the day of the June solstice, the Sun reaches its northernmost position, as seen from the Earth. At that moment, its zenith does not move north or south as during most other days of the year, but it stands still at the Tropic of Cancer. Which makes it either the longest day or the shortest day of the Year.

Summer Solstice (also known as Litha) is all about abundance, growth, expansion. It’s the celebration of the Sun! Think about it, the farmer plants the seeds in the cool of the Spring in the wet ground and as the Summer Solstice approaches things have sprouted and are reaching up as if they are doing a glorious sun salutation. It’s a time to watch the ripening and fruiting of the plants around us and our ideas. This is a delicious inner fire/power celebration that acknowledges the abundance that grows from tiny seeds. This is a time of really reclaiming your inner power and brightness and mapping out the harvest you desire for the next while.

It’s also a stupendous time for magick! I mean for goodness sakes even William Shakespeare wrote about it in 1596 in his play Midsummer Nights Dream (so that’s how long the magick has been around.) There is a line in the play that says “If we shadows have offended, think but this; and all is mended: that you have but slumbered here while these visions did appear….”

Midsummer’s eve was believed to be a time when the veil between this world and the next is at its thinnest – a time of powerful forces and magical happenings, when fairies were thought to be about and at their most powerful. This otherworldly sense underpins Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, where the fairies use their magic and cause mayhem in the forest.

The magic gets mixed and at one point, Titania, queen of the fairies, falls in love with Bottom, who is unwittingly sporting an ass’s head. But don’t fret – you won’t end up wearing an ass’s head (unless you really, really want to!)

This is a day of inner power,brightness, Magick and manifestation!

So as I mentioned earlier, each Summer Solstice I celebrate in different ways with different rituals, however, one thing I always do is create/craft something to honour the gifts that I receive. Guess what this year’s creation is going to be? Go on, take a guess!

A PORTAL! (No I haven’t lost my marbles at all)

So if any of you have been following the adventures with the faery garden, that became a faery village and then a faery community – you will know there is a delicious handwoven ivy portal in the faery garden. So why not have a life sized one? Yes, one that is 6 feet tall and that you can walk through. Make it out of natural materials such as ivy, driftwood etc and create a sacred space that you can step through and leave the worries and cares behind.

So watch this space – I will let you know next week if I managed to pull it off as I think that would be positively magickal and look stupendous! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Okay, enough chuntering on. Let’s crack on with the reading. When I asked the guides and cards who wanted to come and share this week I was delighted to see the amazing guides of the Earth Warrior Oracle were most adamant, and the Hansa roses jumped out to support! If you have never been introduced to these auspicious guides, please allow me.

There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

I so love “All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration”! Yes, Yes, Yes! The perfect energy for Summer Solstice.

Okay darling one. Let’s settle in shall we? Talk a glorious deep breath in and then let it out as a sigh, releasing all the old air that is trapped anywhere. Take another deep breath in and allow your shoulders to relax, your forehead to smooth and your jaw loosen. Breathe in the wondrous energy of Summer Solstice. The energy of magick and manifestation. The energy of creation and clearing. And if you want to go deeper into this energy use the Summer Solstice guided visualisation.

Then when you are ready allow your wise self to pick the card or cards that whisper to your soul.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ELHAZ

Divine Might Foretold

You know what is correct. You understand that any gain which comes from denying your values and compromising yourself creates a loss of soul. There are times when it may seem as though people who act without integrity are obtaining benefit without negative repercussions. Life can seem unfair if you limit yourself to a strictly human perspective. Yet nothing escapes the attention of the spiritual worlds. Restorative action and balancing fairness is always in action at a higher level, put your faith in divine justice, and you will win in a way that brings benefit to many.

Don’t let yourself down with behaviour or attitudes that are unworthy of you. You have divinity within you and a right to be in the world with dignity, grace and integrity. Whether in a small matter of apparent insignificance to anyone other than yourself, or in big matters where you feel your soul, and perhaps the souls of others, are on the line, integrity will be your saving grace.

You can be kind of heart, but also firm as you refuse to allow anyone or anything to convince you that lowering your standard of acceptable behaviour is warranted. Be in the right relationship with yourself and the Divine. Justice will always be done, whether you see it happening or not. Put your faith in the good and true, and you will successfully continue on your path.

Others are relying on you to be true to yourself, more than you may realise. You are strong enough to live with honour.

ALAKOA

Spirit of the Warrior

Though you yearn for peace, you recognise that, without truth, genuine peace can never be. Even if it triggers an upheaval of transformation, the need to set things right is strong in you. This is the inner drive of the spiritual warrior; the compelling soul needs to uphold truth, goodness and justice. You will fight for these things because that is your way, Spirit Warrior. Trust, see and feel the positive impact that you are making in the world. You are relentless and the Divine is with you.

Do not give up. If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart and your heart in awareness of what it is that is inspiring you. Do you feel alone on your quest? Look for the legions of wings in spirit and upon the earth that fight alongside you, fearless and ferocious with love. Be uplifted by your fellow Spirit Warriors, beloved one. Feel the joy of their love and unity with you. You have access to the divine power that conquers any obstacle, wins every battle, and secures every victory.

If a Spirit Warrior tries to fight from a place of despair and darkness, doubt and hate, the battle will become destructive to their soul. When you fight for love from a place of joy, Spirit Warrior, the battle opens your beautiful fierce heart. It uplifts your mind and empowers your soul with the might of divine grace that accomplishes all pursuits and wins every war.

AJNA DURGA

Power of the Good

You need never lose faith in the power of good. You need never lose faith in how much you can accomplish as an independent and inspired individual in this world. You need never believe that you are alone or without divine protection. You need never fear evil. The third eye of the Divine Mother sees all things, is ever watchful and ever just. She births through holy vision, the manifest power of good in all realms. Her gaze is upon you now. Trust her.

Believe in the power of the Divine to keep an eye on things for you. Trust that power to alert you when you need to know something or to understand what is happening in your life and what you need – even if you aren’t so sure of that yourself at times. Be active in contesting negativity. The moment you feel something isn’t coming from love, acknowledge it immediately. You don’t have to make it about you or analyse it. Call for divine support in all things. It is your greatest ally.

Give up your attachment to past experiences of rejection and abandonment so that you can open up to how much the Divine loves you and can help you. Practice feeling the confidence and unconditional trust in a higher power, knowing it is stronger than all else.

Durga is your ally, your divine weapon, your refuge and your vital energy for sacred purpose. Do not allow yourself to be intimidated. Let that confidence and trust in the divine goddess of goodness radiate out of you like a shining sun that fills your heart, your mind and your belly.

Oh my golly Goddess, absolutely delicious guides for this time and the Solstice. So most gorgeous bean, I wish for you the time to set a clear intention, to bring this into form with ritual (which is easy) and to light up with the Summer Solstice. Remember, the B.O.S.S will guide you and support you if you so choose to make a Solstice unlike any other you have had before. See you next week with the details of the reading special. Wish me luck with the Portal! Big hugs and squeezes!

New Moon Eclipse, Summer Solstice and Shake Up Time!

Jenny Heston · 11:11 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Magnificent, Moody, Melancholic, Magickal, Majestic, Moodling, Manifesting Monday! The first Monday in June (how the heck did we end up in June already?) Time is doing some very interesting things for sure! So let me ask – how are you delicious lovely? How was your Full Moon Eclipse?

I will say that I most certainly feel Eclipse energy, but this one handed my arse to me in a paper bag! It was so interesting to witness the feelings that surged up, along with the thoughts and the intense desire to shut the world out and just curl up in the closet with a blankie and close the door! But witnessing and welcoming, without judgement, were the key things that came to the forefront.

So guess what’s happening this week? Frigging Lots!!!

We have the wonderful Mercury retrograde in Gemini, we have the New Moon Eclipse in Gemini. The Shamanic energy of the month is SHAKE UP (if you remember May was TIME TO CHOSE), and we have Summer Solstice rapidly approaching!

Okay, this year Summer Solstice (aka Litha) comes to us this Sunday (June 20th). If you are in the Southern Hemisphere it is your glorious Winter Solstice (aka Yule). And I’m so excited! As I’m sure you know by now, I love celebrating most things – heck I will even celebrate a thunderstorm. However, I love, love, love Solstices and Equinoxes the mostest (and all the other celebrations).

Now you may be thinking – Jen what’s the big deal, what does this Solstice thing matter? Honey, ask me about the ritual and intention I set 3 years ago now and what happened in the space of 2 months, that now allows me to live by the ocean! The intention I set last year allows me to do what I love!

Thus grasshopper Solstice does matter, it matters very much. It’s one of the biggest celebrations on the Wheel of the Year. We are now moving from the element Air (ideas) to Fire (Action and Passion) and Summer Solstice is the celebration of the sun, which is masculine and all about Passion, Action etc. Summer Solstice also marks the longest day of the year – Whoot!

Summer Solstice (also known as Litha) is all about abundance, growth, expansion.

And yes, for all of you who have been asking if there is going to be a Book of Summer Solstice – you bet. If you are part of our email community you will hear about it on Thursday.

Oh yes, and for those of you who have been asking if there is going to be a Solstice reading special – I’m still perking it as there are lots of things in the works right now, so I will let you know next week. Okay.

So mull over the energy of Summer Solstice and throw onto it (think of making a layer cake) the Shamanic energy of June which is SHAKE UP! (Makes me think of the Elvis song my parents used to play when I was little called – All Shook Up, except it’s not about being in Love!

Okay, so what does SHAKE UP mean to and for you? The best person to answer that is the amazing Lena.

“We are in a destabilized time of mental confusion, frustrations around what no longer works, and tremendous opportunities to approach our lives in a new way. Post last month’s powerful full moon and eclipse, we are also in a learning and integration period where we must look back to see and acknowledge what we have left behind that is no longer available to us. Do so with gratitude and faith. No regrets. We have crossed the bridge and there is no going back.

This month there is an internal shake up and external shake up. Internal shakeup is the shakeup of belief systems, your life as you once knew it, identity shifts, emotional challenges of dealing with confusion, change, doubt and trust. External shake up includes literal earth shaking, as in earthquakes and other environmental intensities, unexpected political decisions affecting greater communities and even countries, sudden losses, sudden gains, spontaneous opportunities, some doors closing, some doors opening, and the effects of other people’s decisions and changes on your life as you know it.

The internal shake up requires you to pay attention to your own truth and what is important as you adjust and adapt to a new landscape. The external shake up requires patience, understanding, resilience, community efforts and trusting in right timing. There is an aspect this month of cooperation, sharing with others and collaboration that is key to starting the rebuild of a new foundation for our collective future.

You will feel the need to find balance between personal alone time to integrate your own process, and community time to inspire each other with the possibilities and opportunities for growth and advancement.”

(See I told you it wasn’t so like the Elvis song!)

Then on Thursday June 10th we have the New Moon Eclipse in Gemini, which asks you to trust in whatever has been moving and shaking for you. Know that whatever needs to fall away will fall, and whatever needs to stay will stay. That is the nature and power of Eclipses.

On a human level, we can find ourselves labeling things or events as good or bad, but on a soul level, we understand the bigger picture and know that all experiences serve their purpose. Recognizing this duality within us can be tricky, but may also help to bring some ease as we navigate any changing or unsettling energies that flow our way.

In fact, a good reminder under this Eclipse energy is to not believe everything you think or hear!

A great mantra for this New Moon Eclipse is “Let everything that needs to go, go. Let everything that needs to come, come. All is well.”

So with all this rather “interesting”, yet inviting tumultuous energy around, Summer Solstice intentions are even more important! Trust me!

So with all of that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and cards and asked who wanted to show and shine – the deck that came out loud and proud this week is Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle. Perfect! As we could all do with loving ourselves a wee bit more and being a tad more gentle and kind whilst we navigate these delicious times.

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them – “These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth.

Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world. We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK. Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense. She wants so much more for you. She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny. She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart. She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you. You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true.

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

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time. Woosah!

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

If you want to shake off the worries and cares for a bit, let’s go a bit deeper. Come for a delicious dog walk with me, okay?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

BRIGHT DESTINY

To become truly yourself, shining your divine beauty and light, you will go through a process of releasing what is no longer right and true for you. Like the caterpillar who sheds the chrysalis when it is time to emerge as the butterfly, you will let go of the person you once thought you needed to be. This can feel freeing, exciting. It can also seem frightening. You may feel crazy sometimes, trying to hold onto a past that is no longer available to you and grasping for a future that is yet to be.

Sometimes, it can feel like a dark night of the soul, filled with questioning and confusion. Others may not understand what is happening, and you may feel as though you can’t really explain it, either. In such times, we have to trust that all the changes and uncertainty are part of a process of growth – letting go in order to open up to something amazing and new. This is happening for you now. You don’t have to be afraid. You are going through this because you are ready for it, even if you think you’re not. There is a loving reason for all of it, even if you cannot see that right now. Put your faith in the mystery. Trust that the answers will come – and so will the joy of all that you have grown into. Stay true to your path and know that you have a bright destiny ahead.

For now, let the process happen. Fear can make us try to force something that isn’t quite ready yet. Don’t try to impose a meaning, take action or understand it all prematurely. Don’t think too hard! It’s OK to relax and trust that the moment of clarity will come when the time is right.

PRIORITY OF PURPOSE

Making a choice can be hard, as if to say yes to one thing, you have to say no to fifteen other things! Remember that saying no is just saying, “not right now”, rather than “never”. There is a higher plan for your life that includes all of your passions. You can do it all, but just not all at once. Your soul knows how to build your most inspired and beautiful divine life, as though it were building an extraordinary temple for your spirit. It knows that the foundations need to be prepared and the walls built before the windows, doors and skylight can be installed. The roof may be absolutely one-of-a-kind incredible, but if you try to lay the roof before you’ve built the walls, you are going to have some problems!

There is a certain order to how things need to happen, which the soul intuitively knows. That is why listening to the soul and trusting your inner guiding voice makes more sense than trying to accomplish everything straight away and ending up with so much less than you deserve for all that effort. Every moment of patience and sacrifice that you make now is stored up by the Universe as a sweet grace that you will receive back later, as everything falls into place so perfectly. Tune in and trust your soul to show you how to gain everything you ever dreamed of, one simple step at a time.

EARTH GODDESS

You have beautiful dreams and wonderful visions of what life could be. It is not enough to imagine them. You want to live them! This is exactly how you are meant to feel. For that to happen, you must practice feeling grounded, taking practical earthly steps, one at a time, to bring your dreams to life. The Universe will send so much help your way, bu you are the one who must take the steps. Spirit cannot do that for you. Even if you are not sure how your biggest, boldest dreams can come together, you can still ask yourself, “What is it that I can do now?”

Sometimes, it will be an obvious action that you can take, and, sometimes you will need to pray and meditate and ask for the way forward to be shown. When you can do something, do it. When you cannot, rest and wait for your intuition to nudge you when the time is right to take action. Remember, you are an Earth Goddess. You have the power to manifest your visions, to bring your beautiful ideas to life in the world. This is what you are here to do. Remember to love yourself enough to recognise your creative power and use it joyfully each day.

There’s a fantasy that wants to become reality for you. Don’t let a few gritty moments or human imperfections prevent you from experiencing the joy of heaven on Earth.

Oh my gosh, I so love my guides and the cards. Perfect for this time! So my most glorious one, I wish for you a most amazing week. I will let you know about a reading special next week, and if you want to find out about the Book of Summer Solstice – come join our amazing email community. Sending you massive, massive blessings and hugs. It’s going to be an interesting month – muhahahaha. Remember to be kind to yourself and to breathe.

It’s Spring – be the Flower! Energy Shift to Transition and a lovely Aries New Moon!

Jenny Heston · 5:39 pm ·

It’s Monday, it’s Monday – fa, la, la (Trust me, I’m singing out loud!) Remember we are re-framing Monday and making it magickal, mystical, marvelous, meditative and absolutely magnificent!

Welcome to April and it’s time to gracefully move with the energy of TRANSITION. I love April, as the leaves are busting out, flowers are blooming, lambs are being born, the energy is lifting upwards and there is a sense of tender growth. It’s also a delightful month for testing out my wardrobe planning as one minute it is warm sun, the next – torrential rain and then who the heck knows what will come…….

It ties into that old saying that dates back from the 1600’s – “April showers bring May flowers.” Which I am totally happy with, as I own rain gear!

So here we are in April and there is an Energy Shift to one of TRANSITION. Now what does this mean or look like for you? As Lena shares most eloquently :-

We really wanted to call this month a grumpy reset but transition is a better description as we are not yet at the reset even though the month may definitely show up as grumpy, irritating, and uncomfortable at times. Very few of us are comfortable with transition as it indicates leaving behind what is known to us, even if that known place is no longer what we want, and moving into an unknown landscape, even though that landscape holds all of our current intentions and desires.

Transitions tend to cause stress and stress tends to cause the worst of our personalities to come out. Personal obstacles will be triggered as well as tendencies to judgment, blame, irritation, restlessness, and all manner of negative reactions. It is wise to watch your words and keep them from being harsh towards others. It is also wise this month to stay present and to take responsibility for your own reactions to situations and triggers so you can keep from projecting and taking your discomfort out on others.

More than any other time, it is best to make kindness a daily practice and focus.

On the positive side, this is an incredibly dynamic month where great strides can be made in all areas of life including your own abundance, movement of work and projects, rebuilding or beginning new relationships, greatly improving your health, having more discipline for spiritual and physical practices, and becoming really clear about your values and what is important. As uncomfortable as you may often feel this month, treat the journey as a pilgrimage towards more power in your life and stay as neutral as possible around challenges and obstacles that may come your way.

Behind every challenge is an opportunity and the opportunities this month will be big and unexpected. You may miss them if you are too wound up and focused on being irritated and judgmental. For there to be movement, change, and opportunity, there has to be an unsettling of the old structures and attachments. This always creates a bit of chaos before a sense of clarity reorganizes the movement in the right direction. The right direction will be supported more by how you want to feel rather by what your mind thinks you ought to be doing. The more you hang on to the old, the more irritating your time will be.

This is also an important month for completions and tying up loose ends especially around relationships and any shame, regrets, disappointment or wounding from the past. It is truly a time to finally let go and not waste this opportunity for deep releasing and healing. What are you still attached to? What is still attached to you?

So sit with Transitions for a moment. When a baby comes into your life – that’s a massive transition. When your kids leave home and you have to face yourself and your partner – another transition. They are like delicious thresholds that need to be unpacked, savoured and restructured. Not blown through (which we normally do).

On top of this we have a New Moon in Aries. Now, if you remember Aries is the first of the Western Zodiac calendar and this New Moon represents the start of a new lunar cycle.

The Aries New Moon falls on April 11th or 12th depending on your timezone, and carries powerful energy for manifestation, intention settings, and new beginnings.

This energy combined sends powerful waves of freshness into our lives, beckoning us to make changes, plant seeds, and to embrace a new chapter.

As Forever shares:- At the peak of the New Moon, it is completely invisible, and the night sky looks like a blank slate full of stars. That blank slate is what each of us is being granted on this April New Moon. It is blank for we get to fill it with our desires. We get to choose what we wish to draw, paint, or write across our canvas.

Under this New Moon, our powers of manifestation are heightened and our ability to draw in and attract what we desire is enhanced threefold.

The choices, words, and emotions we put out into the world are always coloring our reality, but at the time of this New Moon their influence is accelerated.

Be mindful of your thoughts, words, and the choices you are making at this time. Be sure they are aligned with that which you wish to attract. Be sure that you are focusing on what you want, rather than what you don’t want.

Watch your language and how you are choosing to speak to yourself and others. Your words are powerful, so be sure you are speaking with loving-kindness.

So do you note with the energy shift of this month and the New Moon in Aries – being kind to yourself, watching your words and noting if you are falling into a story from the past that doesn’t fit anymore (kind of like a pair of jeans that so don’t hold and shape you).

Okay enough chuntering on.

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were most adamant. I was tickled as yesterday I went exploring the woods, hung out with the trees and just noticed all the spring flowers that were pushing up, including the glorious Fawn Lilies (so delicate).

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it’s rude not to):-

“Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle. The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people. May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.” Lovely!

Note the last line!

Okay dear heart take a delicious breathe in and let yourself settle into the moment. Let your body relax and your breathing gently slow and then when you are ready invite the energy of Transitions into your mind’s eye. As it swirls, let it guide you to pick the card or cards that tug at you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look.

THE ELF QUEEN

You have responsibilities that have accumulated to the point that you no longer feel free. You have dimmed your own bright light, and the world longs for you to shine once again. One by one, I ask you to take these burdens – anything that feels heavy, whose energy does not come from love but from fear, any demands and expectations that no longer meet your needs – and release them with love. There is no rejection in this gesture: it is simply time to re-establish your own personal boundaries. You may even be carrying burdens that rightly belong to other people – please, release these now!

Without this clearing, you may well feel you are carrying too much on your own shoulders, and are unable to see the path ahead of you. As you release, the beginnings of the sweet and tender freedoms that are your birthright will make themselves known to you. You are now free to love and care for others more effectively, as you will be acting out of love, not forcing yourself. If you clearly ask for support, other people will love and support you in all that you do.

THE MABON

The Mabon is the child of the darkest moment, born when bright hope beckons you into a positive future, born out of what has seemed to be the most hopeless space you have ever been within. Now is the time to think magickally. What you think, what you are, manifests about you at all times. Now, with this new magickal mindset, you begin to transform your life into one of delight and hopefulness and to uplift your companions with your vibrant, positive energy. When we allow ourselves to shine, we become who we were always meant to be – and by example we encourage others to become who they truly are.

You are a powerful role model for others. Keep up the wonderful work – you still have many experiences ahead of you on your journey, but this energy is now your companion and your divine inspiration.

Make a wish when you see the stars – you may even have a homeland among them. This portends bright optimism and being filled with the joy that everyone feels when you are celebrating magickal living.

It’s effortless and joyful to do this divine work. You are being blessed with a rebirth of positive light and energy after a time of lack. And, oh, how good the weight lifting off from your old self feels.

THE GREEN MAN

Not so long ago, all was quiet, dark, and cold…..but something has changed, and it will manifest into your world in significant ways – through you, and all around you. This is a time of renewal, a time of new beginnings and connections for you. Your energy will be extending itself easily, and you will fall in love with the new world you are creating. This is a time for you to actively pursue what it is you wish to create in your life and to acknowledge the presence of the powerful new energies all about you.

Each day will bring these changes, and it is as if life force itself is surging through you, and every cell radiates this bright, strong, fierce new energy.

To be effective, this energy must be directed – not tamed, but given places to flow into – and thus you must choose and shape the energies you are experiencing. Nature and its energies shall pour through you and it is necessary for you to quickly begin to shape these forces in meaningful ways.

This is also a time when you no longer see sharp distinctions between what is outside of yourself and what is within – you feel linked, connected, a part of a great natural magickal whole, and this empowers you into brave, open-hearted action.

Go forward and thrive, dear one!

What delicious guides for this unfolding week! So delicious lovely, have a superb week, spend some time with this delicious New Moon and remember – BE KIND to yourself. See you next week!

Worm Moon, Orcas and Seals, and Hippitty Hoppitty Bunnies!!!

Happy Magickal, Magnificent, Musical, Mischievous, Manifesting, March Monday!

How are you deliciously lovely? So much to explore with the shift in energy for April and the lovely Full Moon that happened yesterday and Easter! However, first let me share about the huge pod of Orcas I saw this morning!

As I do every morning I go to the beach with the doggo. So I got there bright and early and was walking along the beach reciting mantra and picking up rocks when all of a sudden I looked up and coming around the point was a massive super pod of Orcas! (Apparently there was a plankton blush with the warmer weather) and they were majestic! Undulating in and out of the water, blowing water up in the air – it was awe inspiring! I mean seriously, how can you watch these majestic beasts and not be blown away? Then all of a sudden as the last Orca rounded the point 4 HUGE sea lions slid off the rocky point and started attacking the last Orca! I was gob smacked! There was all sorts of noise, splashing bodies flipping up and around and tails smacking the water. I have never seen the like! Then weirdly enough within about 4 minutes it was all done and when I looked around the Orcas and sea lions had vanished, and the ocean was still.

Wild right? And absolute blarney – happy early April Fools Day!!!

Okay, I have to ask, am I the only demented one that loves April Fools day and likes to play practical jokes and little twists of the mind with people? In my world, if it is harmless as long as no one gets hurt (possibly confused), then it’s all good. When the kids were younger I altered all the clocks in the house by 2 hours and so the kids dashed to the bus stop and waited, and waited (as they were there 2 hours before a bus would be there.) I will be honest, I let them wait for a good 30 minutes and when I pulled up in the vehicle they were highly concerned they had missed the bus, something had happened, where was the bus? (I know, what a horrid mother I am). So I explained to them what had happened, thanked them for the saran wrapped toilet and the salt in the sugar and we all went for a yummy breakie!

Thus gorgeous one, Happy April Fool’s Day! (Playing and laughing are so important, if you’re not doing it, then you need to start (just saying)). Or come for a visit and we will make it gigglicious and glorious fun and hopefully see Orcas!

Yesterday was the glorious Worm Moon (isn’t that a great name?)

Do you know why it’s called Worm Moon? The worm moon gets its unique name because earthworms begin to resurface at this time of year. It is also considered the last full moon of winter, but in 2021, it marks the beginning of spring. Also known as Seed Moon and the Crow Moon, The Worm Moon is the time of growth, creativity, and inspiration. Falling after Ostara, the Worm Moon can also be a time for rebirth, or a time to picture that creative project you’ve been thinking about for months, or the new way you want to be in this world. On the Worm Moon, visualize your intentions and the outcome you’re searching for when it comes to that project and make plans for how to see it through.

So if you want to take some time to do a bit of releasing, and then visualising with inspiration and creativity, I highly suggest it (you still have time.)

This weekend is Easter and I love the fact that hot cross buns are out in all the stores. I will confess, I have a “thing” for them, no clue why, but I really do. I cut them in half, toast them and slather them with butter and then everything seems right with the world at that moment in time! And I will be honest, I can eat a ton of them!

So with no egg hunt in sight, jokes it is!

How do you make rabbit stew? Make it wait for 4 hours.

What kind of music does the Easter Bunny like? Hip Hop.

Why do we paint Easter eggs? Because it’s easier than trying to wallpaper them.

What do you get when you pour hot water down a rabbit hole? Hot cross bunnies!

Why did the Easter bunny cross the road? Because the chicken had its Easter eggs!

Hey, nowhere in this did I say they were good jokes lolol! So how are you going to celebrate this Easter? Time outside, visit with zoom time with family, a special dinner, a hike, relaxing and watching it all happen?

Okay, enough chuntering away about chocolate, eggs and hot cross buns, let’s get on with the reading.

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share with you this week, I was delighted to see that the Earth Warriors Oracle guides were most adamant. Now if these amazing guides are new to you, please let me introduce you to them (as it’s rude not to).

Woosah, breath that in. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

Okay gorgeous bean, let’s take a moment to just settle and BE. Let your breath find it’s perfect path coming from the belly, not the chest and let your shoulders relax. As you settle in, invite into your mind’s eye the energy of creation, rebirth, play and imagination. Ask yourself what would best support you with those energies this week.

If you want to deepen it a bit there is a lovely wee guided visualisation for you.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper in your ear, tug on your heart strings and trust your choice.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, yes?

Spirit of the Warrior

Do not give up, If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart and your heart in awareness of what it is that is inspiring you. Do you feel alone on your quest? Look for the legions of wings in spirit and upon the earth that fight alongside you, fearless and ferocious with love. Be uplifted by your fellow Spirit Warriors, beloved one. Feel the joy of their love and unity with you. You have access to the divine power that conquers any obstacle, wins every battle, and secures every victory.

PADMA SUNDARI

Out of Darkness, the Light is Born

The light is powerful enough to survive exposure to the darker side of humanity and remain pure, empowered and effective. Trust in your spiritual purpose as light in this world. Trust particularly in your ability to bring purity, order; grace and light to disorder, chaos and destruction. The Divine is ever by your side and ever within your heart, assisting you with this higher purpose in all ways.

All issues can be healed through the unlimited recourse and creative resourcefulness of the Divine. You are destined to be part of the creative solution for any issue that you have in your life or that exists in the world and touches your heart. The issue only exists so that divine genius can resolve it! Struggles are sometimes the best way for us to learn something we need to understand for our life journey. Trust that when you ask for help, even apparently impossible situations can be turned around. With willing human engagement and divine grace, there is more than enough light, healing, creative innovation, wisdom and energy available to keep Mother Earth and all her creatures, including humanity, thriving. Never give up your hope and trust in what is possible – nor your willingness to act upon that hope and trust.

Part of your spiritual path requires that you walk your talk and live in a way that shows optimism and practicality. When something’s not working, we don’t need to hide from it in shame. We face it because we have spiritual self-esteem and self-confidence. Trust in divine timing, realising that there is far-reaching good about yourself and your presence in the world. It’s not about being perfect, it’s just about taking that next step for you.

LOLO

Stand in the Light

You are unique. You are a divine and beautiful being. You stand apart from the crowd. Sometimes this evokes jealousy or desire in others who want to possess your light and beauty as their own. You need never fear another or believe that they can harm you. Allow yourself to be true to who you are. Do not try to hide your inner light and beauty. You are meant to be seen. Your soul is nurtured and protected by your love for the Great Spirit.

Don’t avoid the spotlight or try to hide yourself nor dull your light to appease another or your own fears. Your true inner divine light and beauty is meant to help others, and the only way that can occur is if you allow yourself to fully be and express it. Do not shrink away from your magnificence when you feel challenged. Instead step it up to an entirely new level of boldness! You have a gentle nature, but you are strong. If you have become obsessed with the beauty or power of another, it’s time to come back to your own divine beauty, to unearth it, explore it, express it and let it shine. Trying to blend in wild rain the energy from you. LEt those who are attracted to your light adapt to your level of divine expression. You are the benchmark, and they will evolve to reach you.

What nurtures and nourishes you, what feels good for your heart, body and soul, is also what protects you. You actually don’t need to do anything else for effective protection than place yourself in the divine beauty of what you love absolutely and completely.

Yes, yes, yes! Glorious guides for this week. So my delicious lovely, I wish for you daft pranks, laughter, connection and ease. Have a wonderful April Fools Day and paint an egg for Easter (yes sharpies are included for painting). Big hugs and squeezes, see you in a few weeks as I’m playing in the woods on Easter weekend.

Blessings, Sore Ass and Full Moon (no pun intended lol)

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Mesmerising, Musical, Marvelous, Manifesting Monday!

How are you? Did you take some time to play with the wonderful energy of the Equinox? I most certainly did and I will say I had a positively stupendous, one of a kind Equinox weekend and the shift that I feel in my body, mind and spirit are immense that I would love to share with you.

Now don’t get me wrong, my life for the most part is really quite lovely and I feel very Blessed. However, I will say the first part of March felt very fractious, heavy and agitated. My ego was certainly trying to drive the bus and was having a tough time with acceptance, release and my mind was certainly not being my friend! So it was divine to have the Equinox experience and feel it move, shift and release.

So, Friday night I took some time to sit out in the dark and write (by candlelight) all the things that I had been fretting with, trying to control, allowing my ego to run rampant with – just poured them out on paper. I then gave them a wee blessing and popped them in my Goddess Box and offered them up. Then I loaded up my backpack as I knew I needed an adventure, an explore, something to sweep out the cobwebs and help me find the reset button.

Saturday I loaded up Gertie (the car) and grabbed Danu (the dog) picked up a friend and off we went to go explore something new as I was being told there was a shift in the air. We ended up on the Juan de Fuca coastal trail, a glorious old growth trail that runs alongside the rugged west coast of the island. And literally the minute I put my foot on the old growth trail I felt a frisson of energy rush through me and had this knowing sensation that I wouldn’t be the same when I came back out. (That’s not as odd as it sounds). Wending through the trees and scrambling over twisted tree roots whilst navigating huge mud puddles the wind picked up and made the tops of the trees sing and I could feel my energy rise in response. Then the sound of the crashing waves pounding against the rugged rocks melded in and it was as if Nature was singing me the best love song ever!

We came out onto one beach and my breath was literally taken away, the rawness, the ruggedness, the sandstone tidal pools with the crashing waves and the wind! Oh my Goddess I was in heaven. I felt like a wee one scrambling up and down over the rocks, gazing into the deep pools and seeing all the life that was living there. The eagles kept coming out and flying above me calling out to each other as they surfed the wind current. At one point as I went to jump off a large rocky outcrop I realised at the last minute that the landing was slick so I lunged further to avoid falling 8 feet and managed to pull the muscles in my left arse cheek! Sore was the word! But hey, you only live once, and this was an experience I was immersed in.

We went back onto the trail to go further down the coast line and kept popping out on wild, rugged beaches to explore and each time a gorgeous eagle would appear as the wind whipped the ocean up and tugged at my hat. I found a little nook in the rocks on one beach where we were sheltered from the wind and able to peel off some layers and have our picnic, where we were very kindly joined by two large Stellar Jays with their iridescent blue plumage and a mini murder of crows. (Quite delightful but raucous picnic companions!) After lunch it was time for Oomancy! Now if you are shaking your head and saying – ummm, WTF? Let me clarify it – divination with eggs! Yes, I did say that outloud. In Creatrix Circle on Friday we had our Ostara gathering and we prepared our eggs for a wonderful divination ritual, so I had hauled mine all the way out to this rugged coastline.

I found a lovely sandstone slope and divining occurred, it was so cool to do and the absolutely perfect place. After a full day, with an incredibly sore left butt cheek, muddy boots, wind burned cheeks and a full heart it was time to do the long drive home. But oh my Goddess, it had been soooooo worth it. What a glorious way to celebrate Ostara and honour the Goddess in her Maiden form and the energy of rebirth, new growth and expansion.

By the time I got home I realised, the woods had been right. I didn’t feel like the same person at all as the one who first stepped onto the trail early in the morning. I felt lighter, clearer, in a state of grace and acceptance and truly, truly Blessed. So to celebrate this sensation and the glorious Equinox I made a Black Forest Cake and ate half of it! (I left offerings for the faeries as well). The whole day had felt incredibly magickal, cleansing and transformative and I felt very Blessed by the whole experience, even with a super sore arse and needing to sit on a hot water bottle!

Sunday morning found me out early with Danu, in the pouring rain wandering along the beach and through the homeless campers who are in the park. As I pushed through a copse of trees I encountered a chap who was having a super tough time and decided I should listen to him as he screamed and swore about life, the weather, me, the neighbourhood and how everything was fucked up. I listened and when he had calmed enough to hear me he took my offer of support to help him get to the community tent so he could get some hot coffee and a dry coat. As I walked on with Danu I offered up a blessing for him, for anyone in that dire circumstance, for those who’s only home currently is a leaky tent in a public park where they get castigated and shunned. For those who are made to feel less than. For those who are struggling with mental health issues and for myself that I was able to be there and listen to him, as I felt that was an honour.

Now when I use the word Blessing, I’m not talking about the Bible interpretation. It’s more a case of calling in grace, love, something bigger than myself to offer support, and let’s be honest – you can offer up a Blessing for anything. It could be a person who you feel has done you wrong, you can bless those that you see struggling, you can bless a situation, you can bless a meal. It’s the inviting in of something far, far bigger than yourself to enter the space with loving kindness. I find it super powerful, give it a try. What do you have to lose?

As John O’Donohue says: ” May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder.”

Okay, this Sunday is the lovely Full Moon in Libra which carries beautiful, high-powered energies for healing, protection, and harmony. A new chapter, a new zodiac wheel has started, and this Full Moon is supporting us to let go of all that we no longer need to carry and to create space for new energies to unfold.

Think about it, when we first started this zodiac cycle back in March of 2020, the world was a different place. We have all changed. We have all evolved and grown. We have all had new experiences that have shaped and moved us, and this Full Moon is our chance to acknowledge and release all that no longer needs to be with us. The Libra energy of this Full Moon also supports us in finding a balance between the old state of what once was and the new state of what could be, and the grace and discernment that is needed to either hold on or let go.

So take some time to consider how you have changed and grown, do you appreciate the Blessings in your life enough and what areas of your life would you like to see more growth (like the Spring seedlings) in?

When I went to the guides to ask who wanted to share this week I laughed as the wonderful Blessing Faeries were most adamant to share their Blessings with you. These glorious ones had come on my Equinox adventure and had gifted me with a Blessing amidst the eagles, crows and jays.

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them.

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. For humans, many of us have lost our sense of play, our sense of relationship with nature, our courage to be ourselves – as well as our hope, creativity, and personal power. We have looked outside of ourselves and nature and the sacred ones for answers, and in doing so, we have become quite lost. The blessings of the faeries can bring us back into relationship with ourselves, back into relationship with the elements and the elementals, 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.

Yes! Perfect guides for today and this time! As always remember, when you receive a blessing you offer a blessing.

So gorgeous one, breathe, breathe yourself here to this present moment. This is the only moment that matters. As your breath gently slows I invite you to ask the question – what needs to come into balance for me? What area of my life would I like to see more growth in? Do I acknowledge my Blessings? No judgement, no pushing. Just allow it to flow up with ease and gentleness and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look???

A BLESSING OF THE BUTTERFLY QUEEN

The Faery Gift of Graceful Change and Transfiguration

To you is granted the faery gift of transformation and change. Your life is re-becoming, and all obstacles will be broken through, until you take flight into the life you have recreated so courageously. The faeries are gifting you with all you need to move through a time of great expansion, change, growth, and tumult with integrity, grace, and tenacity. Your time to be reborn is approaching, and the Butterfly Queen will be with you as you transform and reshape your life.

As you change, even as you struggle at times, you will inspire, and grow, and rework your life in magickal ways. The ancient caretakers of the planet are the fae, and their presence will be with you as you transform. You have beauty, and your presence will be bright and joyful, bringing so much to others, but most of all, bringing a deep contentment and fulfilment to yourself.

Focus on all you wish to see grow and become “more” at this time – and know, with great and firm conviction, that you are blessed, and beloved, and precious, human child.

A BLESSING OF THE UNSEELIE

The Faery Gift of Following Your True Heart from The Worthy Rebels of the Unseelie Court

The gift of the Unseelie is the gift of the rebellious one, the one who defies, and who does not “go with the flow”. In faery lore, the Unseelie are sometimes considered dangerous but their blessing is this: you are not born to appease and to concede, to give way always before forces that consume and control. You were born to be free, to decide who you were meant to be for yourself – and the Unseelie’s gift and blessing to you is that reminder. And this means that in this moment, there is something you must say “no” to. Say “no” to the forces that would ask you to do something that you feel is wrong. Say “no ” to going along, to getting along, and stand alone, if you must, in the renegade nature of the Unseelie.

It is a strange gift, a weird blessing, to be sure, but in its way, it is an energy of rebellion and courage and defiance that is not born out of any desire to be unkind. In fact, it is born out of the desire to be kind to your truest self and to create space and room for you to breathe and be free. With this blessing, you will say, “no”, you will take a stand, you will find a new path and be true to yourself. And while you may be called disruptive or difficult, know that these labels are only given when you can no longer be controlled. When the Unseelie bless you in your holy work, know that you are only being true to your own self and walking your own path. Blessings of the Unseelie, those holy rascals, friend.

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 practice 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 signing 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.

Oh my gosh, I love, love, love the guides who came to share this week! So delicious lovely I wish for you this week ease, flow and joy and that you are able to count your Blessings as there are many. Oh yes, there are 2 spots left in the Private Reading Special which ends tonight and doors to Creatrix close tonight. Have an amazing week and remember to pause and appreciate who you are and how far you have come. Big hugs and squeezes.
