Divine Insight

Thanksgiving, Libra Super New Moon and Kindness.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a peak shall we?

A BLESSING TO FIND THE TRUTH

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

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

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

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

Blessed Be.

A BLESSING ON YOUR CREATIVITY

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

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed Be.

A BLESSING FOR THE RIGHT WORDS

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed Be.

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

Witches, Magic and Smoke!!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Magickal Monday! How are you delicious lovely? Did you have a splendid week? We have been living in what feels like very surreal conditions for the last week. There are so many forest fires burning around us that the sky has become a strange blanket of grey/white smoke for days! It feels like we are stuck inside some childs snow globe (except it would be a smoke globe), the sun can’t even penetrate the smoke to cast down her heat, instead she sits in the sky like a tiny orange dot. This is turn has created merry hell with things such as the internet, cell reception and all sorts of things. Thus, if you took advantage of the Eclipse Reading Offer (which does end at midnight today), and haven’t heard anything – don’t panic, with the intermittent internet coverage it has been like dealing with Mercury Retrograde on steroids! However, as Mercury has just turned direct I am hoping for better communications and some frigging rain!

It’s been interesting to see how this level of smoke has been affecting people’s energy and moods. There is a desire to sleep more (which is normal) and some people are exceptionally cross about the whole situation and will spend every minute ranting at whomever will listen about how unacceptable this is and how inconvenient. The fact of the matter is that it’s happening, it sucks, our firefighters are doing a stellar job, the helicopters are continually going over the lake scooping up large buckets of water, and hopefully we get rain and clearer skies. Spending my whole day fuming about it all isn’t going to change it, right? Funnily enough with all this fire around, the other night I thought it might be fun to bleach the tips of my red hair, so I slapped on some bleach and then got immersed in something else and forgot! 2 hours later (yes two hours) I quickly washed it off to find that my hair had gone golden, coppery, red and looked like a flame! (When mishaps turn into blessings – phew)!

In days of yore I’m sure people would have thought that “witches” (normally the wise woman of a village who worked with herbs and healing) had caused the wildfires to punish Farmer Brown for not selling her a pint of milk. Well we all know how that would turn out don’t we? Burning, hanging, drowning or being rolled down a hill in a barrel filled with stakes. (None of which sound very appealing at all to be honest!) In fact on this day in 1612 nine Pendle witches were hanged at Gallows Hill in Lancaster, England. The only witness to them being witches was a 9 year old boy! So that made me think that for me personally, the fact I talk to my plants, have crystals everywhere, read oracle cards, connect to the divine on a daily basis, celebrate the seasons, the moons, eclipses, use homeopathy and herbs as my first line of defense for ailments and illnesses, talk to the cat and dogs – you know the usual. I would most certainly be cast as a witch, (which in this day and age I am most proud of!). I think that’s why I like Tish Thawer’s quote from her book “The Witches of Blackbrook”, which says “We are the granddaughters of the witches you weren’t able to burn!” (Very apropo with all this smoke and fire around don’t you think?)

So with witches, wonderment and magic abounding let’s crack on with the reading. I was delighted to see that the lovely “Oracle of the Dragonfae” decided it was important to them to show up. Now, if you have never worked with these delicious guides let me share a bit about them. These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick! The crystals that came to play are Moonstone, Red Calcite and Red Jasper – yummers!!! As always, a Selenite wand for amplification and some lovely flowers and lemon balm from the garden. I did the reading outside (even if smokey) and added the smoke of my smudge to the sky……..

Okay, let’s take a glorious deep breath in through the nose and sigh it out through your mouth. As you exhale, feel within your body all the tension and the worry flowing out on your breathe. Breathe in again, gently roll your shoulders and when you feel that you are fully back in yourself. Ask your essence what question is burbling there for you. What do you need a little support or guidance with and with that held in your minds eye then pick the card or cards that resonate for you. Ready?

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go take a gander?

LADY LUNA’S MAGICK

You know that I shine upon this Earth and that we belong to each other. Yet you have disconnected, for all your knowledge, when only a few moments spent beneath my rays would cleanse your entire energy field, assisting you in shining your light at the full moon. And with my dark time, you may go within and find the secrets you have kept hidden from yourself and look at them without blame or fear. So I ask you now, as my moon Dragonfae fly about me, sending the energy ever turning, to connect with me, Lady Luna. When you do connect, you will be more complete and the yearning and sense of hopelessness that I feel from you from time to time will ease, be soothed and finally, dissolve.

Take my healing powers and light as yours: as they are. Reflect upon me and I will reflect upon you, and your dreams and visions will gain in strength, clarity and power, all the while keeping you safe and grounded. My light has shone over the Dragonfae, the magickal world, the beings you call human and all those of the animal and plant kingdom, the minerals, the dreams and the flowers and all are mine, and I am theirs. My light ran through the veins of your ancestors and they understood me better than you, for all your knowledge, sometimes do now. Please, let us be friends and companions once again. Do not be afraid of my light and my night time self, for you are the same as me and we are both older than time itself.

Learn your moon sign: this will give you many clues as to who you are at the core of your being, who you are under the layers and layers of (unmagickal) conditioning that can rub away and erode our natural intuitive abilities and magickal gifts.

CHENGUANG

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

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

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

NIMUE

Between my two hands lies the power of all that is; the connections between the Earth and the stars, the realms through which you can move to bring about your deepest desires and dreams. But do you dare to dream it? Are you courageous enough to declare your desire? I can create, but I will not be brought froth when you do not have the fortitude to commit to your change. Make a commitment to thy own self now – she, who you truly are, is worth this trust, this pledge, this courage you must have to birth your own changing self. For I am gentle, but I too have no more time to spend if you wish to waste the jewels life has given you. I will turn away, because it may not yet be your time. Only you can say it is not so, and walk forth into your new self, with me as guide and light, with transformation as your nature, with your incarnation without material death as your truth.

Do this with me: Bless thyself. Love thyself. Know that you are beyond your own imaginings. Act this day, this hour, this minute, and change will flow. Do not hesitate. Be transformed now!

It is time for you to free yourself from the confines of others’ expectations and investigate other less conventional ways of making a living. You may be drawn to a particular crystal at this time, and may enjoy simply entering into more regular communion with the element of earth and its minerals. Wear jewellery that has been cleansed by you, and energised by you, and understand its significance and power for you. Make each piece you choose to wear a totem symbolising your own self, adorning and expressing who you truly are. Above all, the message of Nimue is to free yourself. Stop expecting others to unshackle the chains and force you to walk free. You, and only you, can remove that which is holding you back.

Delicious!!! Moon Magic (and inviting you to rediscover yours), Shining your gorgeous true being, Freeing yourself. All very amazing and powerful messages – are you listening? Sometimes we “think” we are paying attention, but not so much (I speak from experience on that one lol). A quick reminder that I will be taking a little break from public readings, from August 21st to September 17th. (I will still be doing private readings and coaching). If you want to take advantage of the Eclipse Reading Special it does close at midnight tonight. People have asked if they can take advantage of it, but do a reading later. You bet! For those of you who have signed up already I am tickled to be working with you and once we are over the hiccups of the smoke and dodgy services, you will be receiving your reading. Have a superb week, hydrate, laugh and take 5 minutes a day to daydream on your gorgeous path and desires. Huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week!

It’s Valentine’s, New Moon with a Partial Solar Eclipse and Chinese New Year – Whoot! What a week!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Holy hannah honey – there are so many celebrations this week, I love it!

We had a celebration this week for the youngest monster who turned 7 on Saturday. When asked what he would like for his birthday, his response was Crystals. Ummmm, what??? (Keeping in mind this little monster will line up all my crystals, talk to them, stuff them in his pockets and take them to school!) Hmmm, okay. “Yes, yes, I would like crystals and the Lego Avengers game for the PS3.” So that’s what he got! We had so much fun shopping for crystals together and it was so, so very cool to watch him touch them all, hold them in his hand and either keep it or put it down and move onto another one. By the time he was done he had quite a glorious collection. However, let’s talk about the more global celebrations that are happening this upcoming week.

First one is Valentine’s Day on Wednesday (or Single Appreciation Day). When the kids were little, little, I would make Valentines bags and stuff them with jokes, riddles and cool sweeties. For example, what did the stamp say to the envelope? “Stick with me and we will go places.” Snort, chortle, chortle. Now as they are getting bigger, we create heart shaped food and make love notes that are left randomly all over town. Public washrooms, the odd mailbox, a bus bench, a windshield – you name it, just little reminders for people to find at those odd moments and be reminded that they are loved and never alone.

Second celebration is the New Moon in Aquarius and a partial Solar Eclipse (such yummy energy happening with this one), on Thursday. If you want to learn how to tap into this delicious energy and practice a little ritual around New Moon to get clear on intentions and wishes (one that can also include kids, partners etc.) I have you covered right here.

Now the delightful Third one is Chinese New Year! This is the time we come out of the Fire Rooster energy and enter the Year of the Male Earth Dog. Calmer, more about community, loyalty – think about a dog, what are they like? Playful, loyal, soothing, protective, pack driven (thus community) etc. There is tons of stuff out there about how this year is going to play out so I leave you to explore that.

On Chinese New Year our family creates a feast! There are all sorts of dishes from ginger beef to gyozas, spring rolls to fried rice, chow mein to peking duck – you name it! The house is cleaned and cleared, there is a bowl of oranges on the table and everyone who comes to the glorious feast receives a small red envelope with a coin in it (a sign of good fortune). Games are played and the conversation is one of joy, ease, celebration and laughter. (In case you didn’t know, I love celebration – gathering together of wonderful people, sharing food, laughing, playing games, being grateful and just appreciating life to the fullest at that nano second in time).

Thus, if you were to pick one celebration this week, which would it be and how would you celebrate it?

Interesting to see that the deck that was a tad rude on their insistence of being front and centre is The Wild Kuan Yin Oracle. I love this deck and I’m not surprised at all that they insisted on coming out to play. Even the dedication is delicious. “This deck is dedicated to the wild ones – those with a spirit that longs to be free and a heart that must love with great passion – who year to bring beautiful visions to life. May you always trust the divine wild child within you, for you are one of the new humanity awakening, ensuring that life upon this planet flourishes with love, kindness and radical optimism. May the guidance, blessings and enlightenment of Wild Kuan Yin touch your heart. “

The crystals that were very clear it was their time to shine are:- Moonstone (Since earliest times, Moonstone has been a tangible connection to the magic of the moon – an amulet of protection for travelers, a gift of lovers for passion, a channel for prophecy, and a path to wisdom. Our ties to the moon are strong.), Morganite (Carries a very powerful vibration of Divine Love, providing one with compassion and unconditional acceptance of one’s self) and last but not least Black Moonstone (A powerful connection to the Divine Feminine, lined to the Black Madonna, or the Magdalene, helpful to the over sensitive by filtering energetic information from other people). Wow! Perfect crystals for this time of year!

So let’s take a moment. Get still and breathe out, a big exhale out your mouth and feel the air leave your lungs. Then breathe in through your nose nice and deep and feel all the corners of your lungs and belly expand and then breathe out as a delicious sigh. If you want a tad more help on just BEING and getting CENTRED, there’s an easy visualisation for you to do. A lovely one where we go play with fire and water.

So are you ready? Did you pick?

With this glorious week UNFOLDING let’s go have a look shall we?

BE LED BY THE PATH BEFORE YOU

You may question whether you are walking your true life path, in alignment with your divine destiny. Perhaps you have a choice to make and are uncertain s to which decision will be the right one for you. Perhaps you are wishing there were more choices available to you, that there only seems to be one path before you now and yet you are not convinced that it is the right path for you. Fear not. There is no mistake here. Trust in your unfolding life journey, for the path before you is one that I have blessed. Even if you sometimes lack confidence to trust in the path that you are upon, know this – you cannot miss your true path, or your divine destiny.

You are on your path. You are right in your sense that there is a greater purpose calling you forwards. Do not fall into the trap of imagining there is some other way to get there however. You have not made some error simply because your life doesn’t necessarily look or feel the way you imagined it would at this point. This too shall change in due course as your path curves ahead. Your life situation each day is like a breadcrumb dropped by the Divine, guiding you towards your destiny. You get to choose how you respond to that breadcrumb – happily gobble it up and continue on your way, or ignore it and try to venture off elsewhere out of anxiety or doubt.

Don’t make things more complicated than they need to be. Don’t rush in out of fear or panic to try and sort out an issue. Be patient and allow it to unfold. The universe knows what you are in need of, and the Divine Mother is with you always, giving birth, through you, to the fullness of your destiny. Take pause when needs be and rest. Then take the next step. Trust.

GRANDMOTHER DRAGONFLY HOLDS THE WISDOM

Sometimes there is benefit in focusing on the new, seeking out untried paths, developing untapped resources and exploring possibilities. The intoxication of hope, inspiration and optimism combined can be hard to resist. However, if fear, boredom or lack of commitment is beneath the quest for new adventures, if we are believing that what we need or want is always just beyond, we may be dissuaded from applying ourselves to the worth tasks before us right now. If we are an imaginative and visionary type of personality, we may rebel against the mundane tasks of applying ourselves daily to bring an idea to life. However, if we were to stop and look clearly at what we already have in our lives, we could realise that there is much of value waiting to be put to use.

Do not step away from what you are cultivating, even if it seems to have lost its steam, run out of energy or be utterly dead in the water! There is something within what you have been working on that is going to yield something of great benefit. There will be much more success, prosperity, happiness and maturing of your ultimate life goals and journey in tending to what is already further along in development than in something new. Grandmother Dragonfly offers you vision that is wide and unlimited by preconceptions. You may need to look differently at what you have nurtured and how to tap into what it has become to be able to share it with others and allow its sustaining grace to nourish human life in its own way. You will help people in many and varied ways. It is all a part of your natural development and you can trust in it. There is no need for you to ever be impatient or doubting of this.

BLESSINGS OF THE KITE DANCER

I recognise immense potential and talent within you, beyond what you can see for yourself. I know that you are willing to develop into all that you are, and so I shall become your divine mentor. I will encourage and guide you, as you manifest your potential, develop and express your talents and fulfil your divine destiny. Sometimes I will evoke the best in you through opportunity, sometimes I will coax forth the best in you through challenge. What you can be assured of is success on this path of self-development. Life has offered you much natural ability and talent. I will help you discover and develop it so that you can offer it back to life as a gift of gratitude.

You have been gifted with a talent, and ability. You may or may not be aware of this talent. It may be an ability to write, draw, paint, dance, or a myriad of others. Or it may be a more unusual and rare gift of being able to organise and rally people together for events with purpose and to motivate others to do their best. Or perhaps you have some other sort of talent that is hard to articulate, define or pin down, but is real nonetheless. If you have no idea what talent lies within, then this gorgeous oracle indicates a process of discovery for you as well as personal development. All you need to do is attend to your spiritual path and personal growth and all else will unfold as it needs to, whether you understand it at the time or not.

This is not a slight ability that may be fun for a while to explore, it is a genuine talent that needs to be developed for a life path to be successful. Taking this particular journey, discovering, exploring and developing this particular ability, will bring you into a sense of your calling, into a deep sense of spiritual satisfaction. If you are feeling pressured by other commitments, even by family members or social networks, to step away from your personal work, spiritual path and commitment to your inner journey. There is work you are doing that will be of benefit to the larger human collective. That sort of contribution takes commitment and you are not selfish in honouring that commitment. No matter how ordinary you may feel at times – you are special! You are unique, you have value. Learning to live truthfully as yourself, and being that self in the world, is a way to honour the life that you have been given.

Love yourself as the Divine Mother does, with great generosity and affection. You deserve no less.

So gorgeous one, enjoy this glorious week. Celebrate whatever you want to and in a way that fits for you. Remind yourself how fantabulous you are and how so very loved you are. Wishing you a stupendous week, be kind to yourself. Plant your seeds of intention and always remember to laugh and drink tea! Also, a huge glorious thank you for all your lovely emails and comments, I greatly appreciate them! They are a delight to read.

October is here and the colours are all changing! Weekly Reading October 2nd.

Jenny Heston · 3:01 pm ·

Happy October, Happy Monday and how the heck are you? As we play around in Fall one of the things I notice is that all the “activities” start up again. Kids dance, violin, Tae Kwon Do, your Yoga, Tai Chi, running group, your sweeties bowling, darts night or squash game and time becomes very busy. This is a glorious time to create a schedule for yourself that allows play time, nourishing time, connection time and relax time. It’s also a great time to do a cleanse and purge your body of any delicious toxins, or extra bag of chips that were eaten at the summer barbeque. I always do a gorgeous cleanse every Spring and every Fall, I recommend that you don’t do one in the heat of the summer or the cold of the winter as your body is in a different mode.

Do you remember a while ago we talked about the energy or theme of September? September was all about Adjustment, navigating all the debris of August and doing the wiggle and settle dance of adjusting to what we wanted, what we didn’t want and what we wanted to create. This month (October) we build on the Adjustment and the theme is Inner Stability and Balance, INNER being the operative word. As I mentioned above, Fall is a time when the activities ramp up, then there is Thanksgiving, Halloween, Remembrance Day and voila Xmas! So as the nights get longer and our bodies really want to hibernate a tad (eat soup, bread and watch a Netflix show), the activity is ramped up!!

If you’re willing I invite you to focus this month on your Inner Stability and Balance, our inner experience is what transforms our outer experience – in the words of Abraham Hicks – BE, DO, HAVE (The BE part being the inner experience). With all the delicious energy that has been bopping around for the last few months, it’s a time to integrate, to reflect, go inwards a little (no I’m not asking you to be a hermit, just make sure your inner self feels good, grounded and nurtured). How to do this when the season is ramping up? My advice take a walk in the woods! I did that yesterday after 2.5 days of 12 hour renovating (where I was so frigging bagged that I collapsed into bed). My inner was feeling undernourished and a little overwhelmed, which I could witness on the outer level – so for me it is “get thee to the woods”!

It was fascinating to see that a spot I had been 5 days ago had changed, the colours were really starting to pop and as I looked up the mountain side there were greens, oranges, yellows and gorgeous rusts. The creek had started to fill up a little after the hot, hot dry long summer we had. I could feel Nature wrap me up in a glorious multi coloured blanket and push love, nurturing and strength back into my soul, my mind, my body – everything. I gladly received the window of connection to my inner being through nature’s guidance and have to say it was wayyyyy better than a coffee or an energy drink (not that I use either), but it was like a glorious boost and a plugging in to Divine, my inner well being and stability. All of which had gotten a tad put to the side with “Let’s rip this wall down, build a wall here, hang gyprock, mud, tape, pour concrete, sink posts, build handrails etc. etc. etc. “

Anyhow, enough nattering, let’s crack on to the reading. Interesting to see The Divine Circus Oracle were the ones that insisted on coming to play. Also the new crystals I gifted myself the other day, Ruby Zoisite, Fire Agate and Cinabrite, which are so frigging appropriate for this time, danced out as well as glorious little mint flowers. Oh and following my own advice the reading was done on a glorious stump. Take a breathe, you always have time for that. Just breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Let your shoulders drop, your jaw relax, your scalp relax (yes, you can do that), and just take a moment for yourself. When you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Have you picked?

Then let’s go have a look shall we? What is the message or who wants to work with you this week, let’s go find out.

OUT OF THE DARKNESS

Something that has been troubling you, something dark within you or in your life, is about to become something else. You won’t see it coming, but when the time is right (and it soon will be), out of darkness will come new life.

A seed of new life is growing. Perhaps you cannot see it or feel it because the seed begins its journey to new life in the darkness, hidden, away from sight and away from light. This seed is destined to bring new life to a situation that might seem to be dying, a fresh perspective to a stale problem. When the time is right – and that is fast approaching – the seed will push through, rise up and reveal itself. It will no longer be just a seed, but a shoot that will grow into a plant and can then flower and bear fruit. It is not a question of whether or not it is going to happen. It is going to happen. It is just a matter of time.

Whatever struggle or challenge is in your life or your heart right now, trust that it is going to work out. Not only that, but the very thing that seems to be darkest in your life, the most troublesome, is actually going to be what brings forth beautiful gift of a new life. In a strange way, it is actually trying to help you. It is assisting you in being ready to receive and experience new life, for something new to be born in you and in your life. This might be the realisation of your own inner strength, your courage, the development of belief in yourself, confidence to trust your instincts or some other gift yet to be understood.

Soon you’ll see there was an opportunity and even a blessing hiding in the troubles of your past, just waiting for the right time to transform itself into light and life.

THE PROUD PIERETTE

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

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

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

HER WICKED WAYS

You are meant to shine bright, to be a sun, even in the cold and dark depths of winter, bringing warmth to the world. Some don’t like the light. They want to freeze your enthusiasm, douse your creative fire and rain on your parade. Don’t let them! Shine your light with stubbornness and happiness. Defeat the Snow Queen and her wicked ways.

The Snow Queen depicted on this card has her wicked ways. She likes to test those that aren’t yet sure of their worth. She will try to freeze you with a glance that conveys criticism, judgement, ridicule. She’ll make you believe that you’ll be humiliated, that it’s inevitable you’ll fail and so it’s better that you just don’t try to begin with. She’ll plant seeds of doubt like a weed in your soul garden, and cause you to lose energy to mental anguish. You’ll find the way of your life more difficult than it needs to be if you don’t take heed of what is happening and use your power to stand up to her.

Whether she arises through a loved one who cannot support you, or a colleague who is envious of you and wants to see you fall, or the voice in your head that is afraid and is yet to really trust your heart to lead you. There is only one way to deal with her. You must stand up tall and true and reply “I am me! Save your soul-slaying, doubt-making for another day. If you stay anywhere near me, I’ll melt you with my creative fire and the warmth of my love. So be gone, it’s time for you to move on!!!!”

Wishing you an amazing week. Remember to take some time outside to just BE. Give your inner being some TLC and if in doubt smile and laugh! Huge hugs. Oh yes, and make a nice hot drink that nourishes you! If you want more information on the theme of the month I highly recommend Lena Stevens, I have been working with her for about 5 years now and she is pretty cool. There won’t be a reading next week as it is Thanksgiving here and I plan on celebrating. Have a great week and as always I love reading your comments and insights – thank you.

Divine Insight

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

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