Ostara (Equinox) and when you hit a Plateau!

· ·

Happy Merry, Magickal, Majestic, Musical, Magnificent, Manifesting March Monday!  (How was that for alliteration!)

How are you delicious lovely?  I have heard from many of you over the last week that you have felt “off”, energy has been out of whack, headaches, tears and all sorts of dis-comfort.  I totally get it!  This last week has been a doozy energetically for all sorts of dramas, bullshit and dross (most of it not my doing but yet seemed to suck me in and twirl me in circles).  

However, when I was talking with one of my spiritual mentors about it and complaining how it felt like a really unpleasant plateau and my resistance to it all, he laughed!  (Yes, the man actually laughed at me!) 

He then went on to point out that plateaus are a good thing.  They are the resting place, the gestation place, almost like a threshold between two ways of being and instead of getting super bent out of shape and squirting sideways take the time to lean back into that space and allow oneself to use it for a time of nourishment, as after the Equinox it’s all about the growth baby!  Which I have to say makes total sense to me as I can feel something burbling and ready to launch forth.   

So this Saturday March 20th is Equinox (Ostara) and seriously, who doesn’t want to celebrate Spring?  As a kid Spring time was filled with woodland flowers and baby lambs popping out everywhere and bouncing like mad fiends over the grass.  Thus, I think that really nailed down the fact that I love Spring Equinox!   Everything is starting to reach, expand and grow!  Many of you have given feedback on the Ostara Magick Manual saying how much you are enjoying it, I’m so glad!  They will be available until March 22nd.  

After a wet, gray winter, the idea, the knowing and the full Trust that Spring is going to come is amazing.  To me it is about NEW.  New plants, new ideas, new ways of moving in the world and releasing the blaugh.  Spring Equinox (also known as Ostara), after the goddess Eostre is a fertility holiday, which celebrates the resurgence of life with such symbols as rabbits, cute little chicks and lambs (seeing any similarity to Easter symbols?) 

This is a time when the goddess is the Maiden in all her youthful glory, the god is reaching manhood, and energy abounds.  So why not tap into that energy to bring the light into your own darkness, if  you have any?  For example spring cleaning is not just about your home, it’s about removing old or negative energies accumulated over the dark winter months to prepare you for glorious growth.  It’s about planting seeds of intention, seeds of growth, seeds of food – it’s about shedding that heavy winter coat and picking up something a tad lighter and a bit more fun.  Whoot!!!!

So grab the Ostara Magickal Manual (fondly referred to as OMM) to give you some great ideas, or join Creatrix Circle as OMM is part of your membership and we have our first Ostara gathering this week (very excited), and yes the doors are open until March 22nd where they will close until the Summer Solstice.

Quite a few have asked when the Ostara Reading Special is, it starts today and goes until March 22nd and there are 20 spots open.  Thus, there are a few of the readings on special and a new Archetype reading as well.  Check it out and see what resonates for you as we step into the energy of Air, expansion and Growth.

Okay, enough chuntering.  When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to show and shine I was thrilled to see that the Crystal Mandala Oracle guides were most adamant, and they had an idea of how many of them wanted to join in, so it isn’t the usual 3 cards.  Now if these guides are new to you please let me introduce them.  “The Earth loves you without condition.  She nurtures all life into existence, and that includes you, beloved, from the life that dwells within your body to the life path that will best fulfil your soul destiny.  

She provides us with crystals, each one with their own Crystal Angel, to assist us on the journey of becoming all we can be through unconditional love.  So with the Crystal Angels of the Earth, and the angels, ascended masters and goddesses that want to assist you in living into the fullness of your divine destiny, to shine your heart light in the world and live your truths with freedom and grace.  Welcome dear one.”

Isn’t that just the best welcome?  Breathe it in. The crystal that wanted to join in is a gorgeous piece of Labradorite.  

Let’s take a moment shall we?  Just allow your breath to find it’s own path and rhythm, allow it to become long and deep, filling all the corners of your belly.  Then when you are ready, ask your wise self what message do you need to hear as you walk into the Equinox.  Then take another deep breath and pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a little look see shall we?

ASCENDED MASTER YOGANANDA & RHODONITE

Empowered Service

We bring you the blessing of empowered service.  It is your time to assume your place in the world, at the table of the masters, who serve the loving hand of the Divine.  You have been asking for your purpose to be more clearly unveiled and manifested in the world.  You have endured lessons of patience.  You have learned that spiritual progress can be made even without results being immediately obvious.  You have learned trust and a willingness to surrender your personal desires into a larger plan.  We know that of which you are capable, and we now invite you to step into the next level of empowered service available to your soul in service to the greater plan of divine love unfolding.

There are moments on the spiritual path that are something like a divine graduation.  You may not realise you have been making much progress in the lead-up to those moments; in fact, it is often the times when your mind tells you nothing much is happening that, at another level

You are making great strides.  

Some of the most difficult and spiritually empowering lessons you will master on the Earth plane are those of endurance and continued effort in the absence of immediately perceivable results.  It may not seem very glamorous or radiant, but being able to labour for the light when you are in darkness is one of the most advanced lessons your soul can master.

What this looks like for each individual will vary; however, you can expect that your work will increase in quality and quantity, that your method of reaching people will either become very clear to you or evolve into a new expression which will better match your increased power.  

Trust in your abilities.  You do not have to compare or compete with any other.  Be open to the changes you feel are happening now – or soon will be – including the opening up of new opportunities, changes that need to happen within your work or your life to better honour who you are and what you are attempting to do through your life purpose.  

ARCHANGEL ANAEL & PINK CALCITE

Acceptance

We bring you the gift of acceptance.  Rather than encouraging a situation to remain the same the gift of acceptance empowers you to move through an experience, uncovering the opportunity for personal growth and spiritual development that may be at first hidden behind a challenging set of circumstances.  Resistance prevents you from being able to see the truth and grow through the opportunities that life brings to you.  Acceptance is necessary for you to be present rather than in resistance.  When you are present, you can see what is happening more realistically and you become able to respond to it with awareness.  Then you shall grow – and obtain more power and wisdom through that process – whilst you also become capable of receiving the divine assistance that will come to help you through any difficulty.  

Even if a situation seems challenging, your acceptance is the key to transforming it.  It brings relief to your heart  It empowers you to take the step forward on your spiritual path that life is presenting to you.  Through that step, new opportunities will arise.  When you trust that no matter what appears to be, it is safe to trust that life is supporting you to manifest your divine potential; acceptance becomes easier and feels more natural and joyful.  

It can seem like self-preservation to resist a situation that appears to be unpleasant or undesirable.  The Universe only ever closes a door to you if it would not lead you to where you most need to go.  Acceptance doesnèt mean you give up the fight.  It means you learn to fight, from the heart, to grow with trust in life’s guiding hand, rather than pushing against it or biting the proverbial divine hand that feeds your soul.

If you relax and accept where you are at, with all that you have accomplished thus far, and even the challenge still ahead, you will move through it with less reactiveness and more conscious awareness and constructive choice.  You deserve this.  Relax and allow yourself to receive it according to divine grace and compassion.

ASCENDED MASTER BABAJI & DIAMOND

So It Shall Be

We bring you the blessing of so it shall be.  There are times when you will go through your life journey without any sign of what is going to happen.  You may be working hard to heal an issue or build your dream, and not really know if you are ever going to be successful.  You may hope for the best, but not know whether you should really expect the worst.  You may sense that the Universe is asking you to trust in how things are going to turn out, and yet giving up your uncertainty is difficult.  That usually means total and uncompromising commitment is difficult too.  Where there is uncertainty there is often hesitation and procrastination.  

Spirit doesn’t want you to miss out on your dreams because you lack faith and therefore, are holding yourself back from “going for it” with all you have within.  So you are being given the blessing of divine decree, of absolute confirmation of success and the divine granting of a wish fulfilled.  Switch your thinking from possibility to inevitability.  It is not a question of if, but of when.  Know that you are going to succeed and commit yourself completely.  Don’t hold back.  Go for it – with gusto! According to divine will, you shall manifest the highest expression of your divine destiny this lifetime.  So it shall be.

Life is a wild game of chance and uncertainty; yet somehow, it also proceeds according to a higher plan.  Some people find the idea of free will and destiny to be mutually exclusive, yet they are both aspects of the divine expression of life.  Destiny is the plan and free will creates the type of journey you have as you evolve into all you can be.  Spirit knows what you are capable of this lifetime and it wants to help you in a very particular way to overcome doubt and hesitation.  It wants you to be bold and to give yourself permission to stand so completely in your truth that even if the ground underneath you seems to shake, your inner strength and belief will not waver!

There is nothing too difficult or big for the Universe to resolve if you ask for help and then allow it to happen.  Ask for signs you can follow and take the steps you can take with clear intention and an open heart.  

ANGEL BALTHIEL & ROSE QUARTZ

Heart Healing

We bring you the gift of heart healing.  Over many lifetimes, your beautiful heart has loved and lost and loved again.  You have learned how to feel joy, pain, suffering and bliss.  Your wise heart knows that life is filled with darkness and light, and it chooses to love the Divine and participate in life anyway.  You might worry that your heart has been stretched beyond its limit, become closed or broken; yet your heart is filled with divine grace, power and, of course, love.  It can and will heal itself to love again, bigger, bolder and braver than ever before.  Do not doubt the healing power of your heart.  

There is power in your heart to heal through struggle into joy, and your heart has the gift of helping to heal others with love.  Your open, kind heart helps soothe others, bringing comfort and reassurance to the world.  Trust your heart and let it heal and guide you into the most beautiful and loving divine destiny waiting for you.

The heart is an incredible phenomenon.  It works on a physical level tirelessly to keep your body alive.  It works spiritually to integrate the messages of the universal heart of the Divine into your field, helping you receive guidance for your life journey.  The heart is your wise guide, friend and inspiration for growth.  Recognising your heart is capable of being broken and growing back stronger and more loving as it heals, is an incredible accomplishment, and a reminder of just how amazing you are, and how truly powerful love can be.  

When you place your hand on your heart and speak simly to the Universe, asking for healing on whatever issue is troubling you, you are using the power of your heart to trigger an outpouring of love from the universal heart.  Ask for what you need, for what you want, according to your divine birthright.  Know that your heart is your ally, your best friend and your guiding light, with you for your entire life, shining the truth of unconditional divine love from within, whenever you need reminding you are special, you are worthy and you are absolutely loved.  

Wowzer!  What delicious guides for this week.  Empowered Service, Acceptance, Trust and Heart Healing!  Love it!  So most gorgeous bean, I wish for you an amazing week filled with gentle breezes, clear Intentions, Spring flowers and laughter.  Remember that the Equinox reading special is for this week only, the Ostara Magickal Manuals are available until the 22nd and the doors to Creatrix Circle (which you will love) close on the same day.  Big hugs and squeezes.

International Women’s Day, New Moon in Pisces, Creatrix Circle Doors are Open and Equinox bundles are here!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Meaningful, Miraculous, Manifesting Monday!   How are you delicious lovely? The Equinox is almost here and I can most certainly feel the energy building and getting ready to bud – I’m so excited, kinda wiggly like a labrador puppy!  Even more so because I had 3600lbs of dirt delivered on Friday to create glorious gardens and I have been hauling it one bucket at a time!  

We have so much to explore this week!  Firstly, Creatrix Circle doors open today until March 21st.

  I’m so excited!  If you have been feeling a call to dive deeper into yourself and your own magick, whilst being supported by a like minded tribe then Creatrix Circle is for you!  

Also, Secondly, thank you for all your interest in if there are going to be Equinox bundles.  You betcha!  As you know I love, love, love Equinox – that magnificent time when we are in a place of equality and stillness.  Where magick is created.  The bundles are ready and there is the delicious OMM (Ostara Magickal Manual) for the Northern hemisphere. MMM (Mabon Magickal Manual) for the Southern hemisphere.  30+ pages of ritual, spells and all sorts of goodness to really harness the energy of this switch and to walk with the forces that surround you.  Thirdly, we have International Women’s Day and then New Moon in Pisces!  Phew!  

Girdle up Betty!

So let’s start with today, International Women’s Day!  Did you know that the first International Women’s Day occurred in 1911, supported by over one million people?  (Think about that, the year alone).  Why do we celebrate IWD?  We celebrate this global day of recognition to acknowledge and celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and girls, and to raise awareness of the work left to be done.  I love the “theme” for this IWD – Choose to Challenge.  

A challenged world is an alert world. Individually, we’re all responsible for our own thoughts and actions – all day, every day.  We can all choose to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality. We can all choose to seek out and celebrate women’s achievements. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.

From challenge comes change, so let’s all choose to challenge. Thus I invite you to strike the #ChooseToChallenge pose with your hand high stating what you stand for to show your commitment to choose to challenge inequality, call out bias, question stereotypes, and help forge an inclusive world.

This Saturday is the glorious Pisces New Moon.  As Forever shares:- This New Moon sends waves of poetry into our cosmic skies. It carries soft, ethereal energy that inspires us to dream, create, and imagine a better reality for ourselves.

The reality we feed is the reality that flourishes, so be sure your thoughts, words, and actions are aligned with all that you desire, particularly under the influence of this March New Moon.

Take a moment to close your eyes and envision a better life for yourself and for the world. Close your eyes and visualize peace radiating through your heart and the heart of every being, both known and unknown.

Buried within each and every one of us are lifetimes of ancestral wisdom. Wisdom of the lives we have led before this one, and the knowledge we have of our true nature and existence.

This is the perfect New Moon to acknowledge this deep, and perhaps forgotten wisdom.

Within, you know the way. Within, you have the answers you seek.

If that feels like a lot to take in, kick your mind out of the way and open your heart, let your heart guide you.  

Okay, enough chuntering.  When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week I was not surprised to see the glorious Divine Circus Oracle hop up and down (as seriously life feels a tad like a circus right now).  Amazing crystals came to join in and the most soft and sweet pussy toe flowers joined right along.

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them.  These glorious guides are playful, but deep.  They think outside the box and invite you to do the same.  If you have never met these glorious guides, please let me introduce you.  “What is life if not a Divine Circus?  Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us a moment earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

Okay, let’s settle in shall we, it doesn’t have to be for long.  But I invite you to get still with yourself.  To really just BE for a moment, to let all the cares, worries, to do things just drop away.  Just BE.  As you slow down your breathing allow the thoughts to scatter off to the side and really invite your wise inner self to speak to you about where you are right now, the energy of Equinox.  What do you need to know as we mark this time?  What can support you in the coming week?  To help there is a lovely guided visualisation where we do some demolition and construction.  (No tools required).

Okay, did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

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!

BRILLIANT VIRGIN

In a world where we are bombarded daily with differing opinions and ideas, remaining true to you and your own point of view is nothing short of brilliant.  Let go of confusion, distortion, comparison and compromise.  You do not need to compare yourself to another or measure up to anyone or anything else.  What matters to you and your successful life journey is to be in touch with your own truths.  You know what you feel, no matter what anyone else says or believes.  Stay true to you!

We have to trust that the inner vision, the hope, the dream within us, is going to be strong enough to stand the rigours of birth, and be able to come to life in the world.  Sometimes we have to trust that we are enough, that we have goodness, value and worth, and so are worth the time, effort, patience and commitment required to transform our ideas into realities.  

Stay true to you and your course.  Do not allow yourself to be swayed by another, no matter how well-meaning their intentions may be or how impressive their arguments may seem.  Do not water down the strength of your vision, your dream.  You are meant to be birthing something unique into being.  The world needs your originality!  Pray for courage.  Trust yourself.

ROOSTER MAMA

Rooster Mama is her own person.  She’s a rebel, a maverick, a renegade – an offbeat individual who dances to her own rhythms.  She is the authentic eccentric who doesn’t fall in with the plans other people make for her, but creates her own consciousness with optimism and flair for self expression.  She says you are unique, positive and rebellious too.  

In a world where we are taught we need permission to do almost anything, it takes guts to decide to give yourself unconditional permission to be unconditionally yourself!  When you do, however, an exhilarating sense of freedom, excitement and happiness bubbles up from within.

Permission to be strangely beautiful, weirdly wonderful and divinely eccentric creates charisma, energy and inspired ideas.  Your own opinion of yourself becomes more important than the voices of fear that want to control you because they are afraid of the power within you.  

You have compassion for that which is enslaved by fear, but you don’t buy into it.  Rooster Mama sees this divine defiance in you and how it empowers you to make your own choices, to choose your own consciousness, the power to live your life in whatever way you see fit, whether others understand or not.  

It’s time to shake things up, redefine yourself, even if that means letting things get a bit wild in the henhouse for a while.  She reminds you to be bold, to be proud and strut your stuff.  

Wowzer, fabulous guides for where we are at and what is coming down the pipe!  Remember please to be gentle with your gorgeous self.  If you want to get a bit more support and don’t feel called to join Creatrix Circle yet, the Equinox bundles will help massively.  Sending you huge love and squeezes.  Breathe glorious one, breathe.  Remember to come from your Heart.  

Valentine’s, New Moon in Aquarius and Year of the Ox! Whoot!

· ·

Hello my darling one!  Happy Magestic, Magickal, Merry, Marvelous, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!  How are you?  How’s your Mercury retrograde going?

Valentine’s day is approaching and the stores are jammed with heart shaped boxes of choccies, little stuffies holding hearts, cookie roses – you name it.  All in the name of Valentine’s Day.  Have to say it drives me bonkers!  Why do we mark this one day out to celebrate love and why only romantic love?  Personally I feel we should celebrate love in all its forms daily.  

Let’s be honest Valentine’s Day has now become a Hallmark celebration, thanks to Chaucer in the 14th century.  His poem “Parliament of Fowls”, written in the late 14th century describes a group of birds which gather together in the early spring – on ‘seynt valentynes day‘ – to choose their mates for the year.

Hence the hallmark holiday which has turned the day into being all about romantic love which can be tough for people if they have lost someone, choose to be single or just want something different.  According to legend, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his judge, and he wrote her a letter signed “Your Valentine” as a farewell before his execution. The Feast of Saint Valentine was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496 to be celebrated on February 14 in honour of the Christian martyr, Saint Valentine of Rome, who died on that date in AD 269.

So I’ve perked what I want to do for Valentine’s and how I want to share and spread love to those I know and those I don’t, is what I did last year.  Meringues!!!  Little wee meringue nests filled with whipped cream and topped with a raspberry and then bundled up and gifted to those I know and those I don’t and those who are living in tents.  

Why?  Because I believe it is important to remind people that they are loved, seen, valued and important, even people you don’t know that you walk past on the street.  So if any of you want to come over and help meringues, please do and if you know how to make tin foil swans – let me know.  

On Thursday we have a lovely New Moon in Aquarius and at the time of this New Moon we have a Stellium, which is where the Sun, the Moon, Venus, Jupiter and Mercury all in the sign of Aquarius.  Can you say one huge energy field?

The last time we had strong Aquarian energy like this was back in the ’60s and it coincided with the hippie counterculture movement. All the things that this movement stood for- equality, peace, and community, are all very much linked to the energy of Aquarius.

Use this energy to raise your vibration, not just for your own wellbeing, but for the wellbeing of all. This is a time to raise your vibration and use it to send healing love to the entire planet. 

Your light is so needed. Your soul is here as a chosen one to bring about the shift of consciousness that is slowly unfolding. The shift is inevitable, it is just your opportunity now to ride the wave.  Remember, what you focus on expands, so set your dreams and wishes high and outside the box!!!

Have fun playing in this wonderful energy field and create some New Moon wishes!

Friday brings us Chinese New Year and we enter the Year of the Ox.  (I love Chinese New Year and we celebrate it full out with little red envelopes, a glorious feast and all sorts).  

Ox can save us from disaster, and help reconstruct because Ox is a builder.

So Ox year is the time to follow through and bring to completion what was started in Rat year. Establish a routine, use tried-and-true methods, and stay with a structure that can bring a bountiful harvest in autumn. Daring new concepts will not be well received. So think back to anything you started last year and work methodically and with discipline on it this year.  

So with all that being said – let’s crack on with the reading.  When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to share their wisdom and insight with you this week, the glorious “Love Your Inner Goddess” guides came out big and bold.  Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to).  

“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!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

DARING DREAMER

You don’t need to adjust your dreams to fit in with what others say is realistic, sensible or practical.  Why seek to limit the power of the Universe with negative expectations?  Be uncompromising with your heart’s wisdom.  Listen to what it wants and yearns for and believe that the Universe has put those desires there and will show you every step to take to fulfil them.  Do not allow someone else to make you feel like you should change who you are or what your heart truly yearns for – not even a tiny bit, not even for one single second!

Our world needs daring dreamers to redefine beauty, success and worth.  We need brave souls to shake up our cultural values so that we stop hurting ourselves and each other.  You can decide what it really means to you to be beautiful, successful and worthy.  That’s how you take back control, disempowering the toxic definitions created by others.

You have the awareness and the power to say no to what is unkind, untrue, unwise.  You get to invite into your life what actually has value to your soul.  Be your divine bad-ass self and give voice to your daring dreams.  Use your positive words of power to express your most beautiful dreams and never give up on those dreams, yourself or the world.

Your vision of what is possible is the healing medicine for our future world and the way to your bliss.

LIONESS

Your ability to love yourself and be empowered is maturing.  You are learning that the real beauty and value of you comes from within.  You are learning to rise above emotional game-playing with honesty.  You can enjoy your attractiveness as a person without allowing it to control your life or your sense of self-worth.  If others try to control your life or opinions about your appearance, or in any other way, you will be strong enough to recognise it as their issue and nothing to do with you.  Others will be attracted to your true inner beauty, appreciating your loveliness and enjoying how it helps them feel good about who they are, too.

Your feminine power is grounded in dignity.  She stands against beauty being used as a tool of manipulation – to get something, to control someone, to put someone else down and make them feel unworthy.  She knows that such behaviour is dishonourable, taking what was once beautiful and distorting it into something ugly and corrupt.

Lioness is the medicine of honour, of beauty that is enjoyed but not exploited.  She is the soul medicine of courage.  She refuses to be used as a pawn in another’s game; she refuses to play with the minds and emotions of others.  Her ways are direct and open.  She is confident in who she is, and she is not afraid to be honest.  Even if quietly spoken, your truth has the impact of a roar.  

With her confidence in your heart, you can live your life in the open without any need to hide.  You are the holder of lioness medicine – a brave one, a huntress, and a protector of dignity, justice and truth.  

BE THERE FOR YOU

It’s time to let yourself off the hook.  Don’t interpret the behaviour of other people or circumstances outside of your control to indicate something negative about you.  Forgive yourself for anything that you feel you have done wrong.  You can learn from your choices more easily if you stop punishing yourself whenever you feel that you’ve made a mistake.  Even the decisions that we regret can help us grow wiser when we swap judgement for compassion.  Sometimes, we can only learn what we need to know from what doesn’t work out so well at the time.  Forgive yourself.  Have your own back.  Be good to you.

You have an open, sensitive, beautiful heart.  Sometimes the world cannot meet that heart of yours on equal terms.  Sometimes the heart of others are just too closed and afraid.  That’s OK because it’s part of why you were born – to help heal and open the hearts of the world.  You are wise, and you know your purpose is to shine the beauty of your divine heart freely for all to experience.  You never have to close down or turn away from that sacred purpose in the world, but you do deserve to be safeguarded and protected.  Know that you have your own back.

When fearful, angry people lash out in pain, trying to hurt others because they cannot get past their own hurt, do not make it about you.  Your heart knows how to love you and protect you, whilst it has compassion for the suffering that another may be feeling. Remember that you must be there for yourself, nurturing your own heart with plenty of love.  Give to yourself just as you give to the world: with kindness and generosity.

Don’t allow anyone or anything make you forget what is real and true – the wisdom and love that fills your own divine heart and helps heal the world.   

Woosah!  Wonderful guides for this week as we navigate the New Moon, Year of the Ox and Valentine’s Day.  Wishing you a glorious week filled with ease, authenticity, kindness and laughter.  Allow any “sticky” emotion out, give yourself love and appreciation and remember to be grateful for even the smallest thing.  I personally am exceptionally grateful for you and your presence on this earth.  Big hugs and squeezes!

Mercury Retrograde. Imbolc is Here! Post Leo Full Moon.

· ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Meditative, Mind-Blowing, Meritorious, Musical, Motivational, Mesmerising, Manifesting Monday! (How was that for alliteration?)

How are you delicious lovely? How was the amazing full moon in Leo for you?  After a lovely hiatus filled with creating, writing and just cocooning, it’s good to be back.

So grab a cuppa and let’s natter, yes?

In case you weren’t aware Mercury went retrograde yesterday and will be this way until February 21st.  Whoohoo!  Now don’t run to the closet, let’s just gently unpack this puppy (so to speak).

Mercury will retrograde in the sign of Aquarius, which is a new energy for us. For the last few years, Mercury has mainly gone retro in water signs.  However, throughout 2021 the theme is air signs.  Which is interesting as Mercury is ruled by the element of air and earth, so having it retrograde in one of its ruling elements may intensify the experience. So let me share what Tanaaz has to share.

We may feel mentally foggy, confused, or lack the clarity that is needed to make decisions.

Whenever Mercury enters retrograde, especially in an air sign, we have to work a little harder to tame our monkey-mind, and be sure we are not spiraling into a loop of overthinking, or getting trapped in limiting beliefs. 

Our task during this Mercury Retrograde season, and the ones to come, will be to acknowledge any mental chatter, observe what needs to be looked at, and learn how to release and let go of the rest.

A prime example was on Saturday over in Creatrix Circle we were having an incredible Imbolc Workshop, yet – for the half hour prior, everything was going to hell in a hand basket.  Technology, mind sets, you name it.  But come go time – all was good.  

So let’s talk about Imbolc!

Okay Imbolc is today!!!  Now you may be scratching your head and thinking to yourself – what the heck did she say?  Imbolc (yes it does sound like it’s looks).  Imbolc is a Celtic fire festival celebrating the emerging life in the world around us as well as the Goddess Brigid who represents the fire of creativity, the protective hearth fire and her firewheel all of which cleanse and purify.  Imbolc is a celebration, because for those of us in the mid winter it promises us emergence, growth, renewal and hope and massive cleansing and purification.  Imbolc is the halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox and occurs on February 1st/2nd.  

Okay Jenn, what’s that got to do with me? 

Well whether you realise it or not your body is connected to the seasons, to the energy underneath you, around you, above you and in you.  Imbolc is one of the seasonal changes on the Wheel of the Year.  However, the Wheel of the Year is more than just the seasonal changes from spring to summer to fall to winter.  It also encompasses the 8 holidays, or sabbats.  Each of these holidays has its own energy and its own place in the cycle that influences.  

Imbolc brings us the burgeoning Spring energy that feels like a whisper or a possible promise, it’s the gestation time.  Imbolc literally means – in the belly.  The time to get clear on what you want to create or bring into your life.  If you want to go deeper and explore some rituals and more information on Imbolc, there are some lovely ones here!

Can you feel the fertility that is approaching?  

It’s pulsing everywhere, flowers are starting to push up, leaves are gently welling up into buds, seeds will need to be planted.  Thus, imagine yourself like a glorious garden – what do you need to push the dross aside and stretch?  To really bloom, expand and grow?

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 little random daffs and crocus that are pushing their way up with vigour!  

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!

The crystals that woggled and waggled (like miniature labradors) are:-  Bloodstone, K-2 Jasper, Chrysocolla.  

You ready?  I invite you to just BE and BREATHE (please don’t tell me you don’t have time, as you do).  Allow any heaviness to gently drop to the ground as you breathe long, slow and deep.  Let it become cosmic compost to feed and nurture something new.  Keep breathing this way and think about the seeds you want to sow in the Springtime, what are they?  If you need some more support or want to go deeper, there is a lovely guided visualisation for you.

When you are ready and you feel relaxed, pick the card or cards that call to you, nudge you or kick you in the arse!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

ISA

Winter has descended upon the Faery Forest.  You have ceased struggling and fighting to change what is outside of yourself.  Because you have relinquished the battle,  you have won the war within yourself.  You are now suspending activity and being in the moment.  Through this stillness and inner consciousness, you are beginning to understand so much of where you have been and where you will go – and because you are fully in the present and allowing, you can also come to a deeper, more peaceful understanding of what it is you want, value, and desire.

This is a moment of complete stillness and simply be-ing: a long moment where you are completely present.  You are as still as a chrysalis, hanging seemingly static from a branch, fragile and mysterious.  Like the chrysalis, you will “do” nothing – nothing at all, except become yourself.  Your transformation is being worked invisibly, on the inside, and when the time is right, you will share it with the world.

In a situation where you seem to have no control, no power, you are learning the most valuable form of power there is – self mastery.  You pause with dignity and strength, and simply by doing this you create the right conditions for the right change.

This time will ultimately bring great peace, wisdom, and choices that enrich your life, others lives, and the healing of the world.

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!

FRIGGA

You are at a moment of great good fortune in this lifetime.  You have created for yourself more than enough, and now the goodness that is flowing to you must be invested and used wisely.  It is easy to squander youth or beauty or opportunity, as they seem such an eternal gift – but this card is here to share with you that it is time to ensure that this wonderful moment is worked with wisely.  Invest in yourself and in your health, create more wealth, learn and study, and also offer your support and investment to worthy others.  Take care of yourself, and truly make yourself into who and what you have always wanted to become.  

This time will come around again, but it will not last forever – and so Frigga wishes for you to consider the gifts you are being given, the bounty coming to you, and consider with great vision and earnestness what will provide for you and your loved ones in the years to come.  Be ready to act!

Your future can be created now – and the present can become so rich and enduring that nothing can shake your ability to continue prospering – your skills, your home, your mind, your body.  

Take care of yourself, and watch the good fortune that flows from your wise investment, for many years to come. 

Gosh, this made me smile as it’s positively perfect for the energy at this time!  So my delicious lovely, I have so many wishes for you this week.  May you gift yourself time to focus on your soul’s desires and write them down!  May you remember that Spring is coming and take this time to prepare (I have something amazing for you come Spring Equinox!)  May you be well, May you be safe, May you be at peace, May you live with ease.  Huge hugs and love!  (Oh yes, and glorious mugs of tea!)

Gemini Full Moon Eclipse, Mourning Moon, Hope, Stones and Bones.

· ·

Happy, Happy, Happy Marvelous, Manifesting, Magnificent, Magickal, Miraculous, Mellow, Magnanimous Monday!

Okay, we have tons to explore this week: Gemini Full Moon Eclipse, Hope, Stones and Bones, Creatrix Circle doors will soon be opening and all sorts of other things!  Phew! So grab a cuppa, get cosy and let’s away!

So let me ask, how has your sleep been?  I have heard from many of you that you’re either having supremely vivid and rather odd dreams, or not sleeping well.  No surprise!  Eclipse energy magnifies the energy of the Full Moon and with this moon also called the Mourning Moon there are a lot of emotions and old beliefs burbling to the surface to be released and yes, some of it is grief.  Grief pertaining to the changes that are happening in your world and globally, grief of the shorter days, grief about many things.  

This moon is also about losing the warmth and sun to the coming dark months. It is a time to finish loose ends and relax. It is a time to count our blessings and be thankful. A time of washing away the baggage of the past and letting it go. Then focus on the joys of the future. During the Mourning Moon phase, you’re being invited to say goodbye to bad habits and toxic relationships, and get a fresh start for the new year. 

So then add to it that Eclipse time amplifies the energy of the Moon, and brings to light those subconscious niggles.  Even as the longest nights approach, this full moon encourages us to bring our thoughts, feelings, and past out of the darkness — before we bid them farewell.

In Creatrix Circle we had our first ever Full Moon Gathering yesterday and wowzer, it is amazing.  Ritual, sharing, exploring and really being willing to dig deep.  I was in awe of the amazing women there.  

So how are you going to create a ritual for yourself to release whatever needs to leave?  How are you going to honour that leaving?  

Because the delicious piece here is that as you step into the darkness to release (with yesterday being the first candle of Advent), there is a place for Hope.   

Now I will be honest, the word “Hope” has never been one of my favourite words as I find it is used far too much i.e. – I hope the kids do their chores, I hope I win the lottery, I hope the cat doesn’t cough a hairball on the clean laundry……….  So the word Hope always felt a bit banal to me, thus, I went exploring and reading and have to say I really like this definition, it is one I can get behind:-

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

So let me ask – What do you Hope for?

But it also reminded me that most of my kids went to Waldorf for their wee years and in Waldorf education, each week of Advent is assigned a “theme” of sorts and is a time for reflection and gratitude towards the different realms of our earth: stones & minerals; plants; animal kingdom; and humankind.

So over the weekend, I gathered ivy and cedar and made a wreath that sits on my dining room table with the candles of advent, and as I lit the first one I breathed in Hope, and also honoured the stones and the bones by decorating around that candle with seashells, crystals and beach stones.  As the first verse says – The first light of Advent is the light of stone–.  Light that lives in crystals, seashells, and bones.

Doing this reminds me we are all connected and we have lots to be grateful for (even on those dark days).

Remember Dark and Light go hand in hand.

So before we crack on with the reading, yes the doors to Creatrix Circle will open briefly in about a week or so for 7 days only, thus, if you want to find out when, it’s really easy to hop on the waiting list.  

Okay, I have chuntered on for quite a while now (if you’ve managed to read this far), so let’s crack on with the reading.

When I went to the cards and was just about to ask who wanted to guide this week I was gobsmacked as this glorious deck threw themselves off the shelf and spilled out all over the floor.  So  please let me introduce you to your gorgeous guides for this week, The Oracle of Shadows and Light.  

If you have never met them before, or worked with them:-  Wisdom for Misfits, Mystics, Seekers, and Wanderers.Bittersweet..Unheard..Unconventional…Rebellious…Cheeky…

Whimsical…Invisible.  They’re not the words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they?  Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream.  They do not fit in.  They have had moments of despair.  And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all!  They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and to consult with an oracle that acknowledges your individuality and strange genius!  How’s that for a warm welcome?

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to join in are Lotus Jasper – a glorious crystal for bringing peace and healing and helps unify all aspects of your life.  Aqua Aura – for those who want to increase their psychic skills and awareness.  Serpentine – an earthing stone and one that opens up new pathways for Kundalini energy.  And last but not least Selenite to cleanse and amplify.  

Thus with the thought of releasing and filling that space with Hope, acknowledging your connection to the stones and the bones I invite you to close your eyes down and just breathe.  For those of you who want to go deeper there is a lovely brief guided visualisation for you to explore Hope.  Just breathe, trust and allow this all to swirl.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug.

Did you remember to pick?

Come on then sweetie, let’s go have a look!

ANGEL DE LOS MUERTOS

I bring you a message from a loved one:  one whose spirit seems to have already departed, but whose physical presence lingers on for now .  I as you now to acknowledge your loved ones who are resting, in spirit, or creating new selves for their souls.  You may soon be about to meet a beloved in a new form:  I ask you to stay open minded about the form in which the souls can come, and I ask you to be open to the message from the loved ancestors.  For they have something to tell you, and it will come to you soon, in a vision, or a dream, or a message during a daydream that will bring such sweet tangible proof of what some people still call life after death.

There is no death.  There’s only life and resting and change.  Be ready to be comforted and to learn more of the world beyond this world, which is always with you, but is not always believed in, or trusted, even when we send messages to you, as clear as a flag in the sky.

You are not to delay activating this lifetime’s purpose.  The message is not just from those who have passed, but of the truth that you can activate your new life now, whilst alive.  It is no longer necessary to pass, to re-create the life contract and purpose you have.  Do not wish to leave in order to start anew:  believe that this life is a constant process of creation and that you are at a point where you can end a pattern, without ending this life.  Energy is changing, and death is no longer the greatest reshaper.  She comes to visit you now so the fear of mortality passes and so that you understand you can begin to rebirth yourself into a new life, now.

FAIRY OF THE GREEN WORLD

This little green faery signifies and embodies the life force of the green world.  She is seen tending to plants that are drooping, too moist, or too dry – she is like a nurse or healer, assigned to the plant realm, great forests and small personal gardens alike.  She is joyful every time someone gives energy to this realm – every little bit helps nurture the plants, which are very tired: fewer and fewer plants and trees and forests are expected to provide more and more life-giving oxygen for animals, elements, and we humans!  Sometimes she becomes overwhelmed by all we humans have done to the green world – so she may be about to ask for your help.  When you give her your help, blessings are returned to you threefold.

The green world is changing, and I am asking for your help.  The world needs you to tend the green things in it in some way right now – and it is your time to make a contribution.  Time to plant a garden, assist another with theirs, or share some food, flowers, or herbs from your own.  Develop your connection to solar energy, find your own water source, and depend less on supermarkets, ATMs and electricity.  

Learn to live with her, the soul of the green world.  By providing the world with this beautiful example, you are nourishing and nurturing our mother, the Earth, who feels so tired some days!  Find a forest, or a grove of trees, or a fairy ring of mushrooms – somewhere that speaks to your soul – and sit with her a while.  When she breathes her messages through the leaves and whispers words of wisdom into your ears, you will know the right place and time to devote this sacred donation of time and energy.  I thank you in advance.  The faeries will be sure to help you in return!

It is a time for growth, for abundance, for the earth element to find its way true and strong in your beautiful life!  Join with the natural energies of the planet – and the galaxy!

LANTERN FAIRY

This sweet fairy is showing you a way through a barrier you have reached in your life.  This may be in any area of your life – but it does feel that you have come up against a very solid obstacle.  This gentle fairy, with her bright lantern, can take you to a place in this wall that has already come down, so you can move through this obstacle without force or fear.  Your only requirement is to trust this fairy and then to take down several bricks after you have moved through so the wall between this world and the next, your love and your life, becomes slowly less and less solid.  The wall is coming down:  this is the fairy’s role, to help you move beyond the wall.  Trust her.  She will guide you.

Sometimes, people say you should be cautious about where information is coming from.  And that is indeed true.  I am simply holding up the lantern I carry and gently letting you see the likely outcome of the decisions you are making and offering a clear solution to the problem at hand.  Something has come to an end.  A true end, and you have, as they say, hit the wall.  You could try digging under it, or climbing over it, or you could try taking down the wall brick by brick.  But if you follow me, I can show you a place where the wall has already come down, and where you can move through this obstacle without pain.  My guidance is safe, clear, and gentle.  I am here to clear the way and light the path.  It is up to you whether you make it harder than it needs to be. 

Old patterns are being removed, little by little, but will need your trust.  Old shielding against certain energies needs to be replaced and reworked, as it is no longer in line with what you wish for and in fact may be proving to be a barrier, which is keeping you isolated instead of protected.  Trust where the light leads you – go where you can feel true love, kindness, and freedom.  Avoid all that comes from anger, hatred, judgement, blame and ridicule.  

Well that was quite delicious if I do say so myself!  I love how this deck reflects shadow and brings it into the light.  I invite you to take some time on today (or in the next few days) and do some releasing.  And then ask yourself what you hope for.  And if you want to hop on the waiting list for Creatrix Circle , please do.  Have a fantabulous week, imagine moon flowers opening around you,  and keep warm and cosy!  Also, thank you for all your wonderful messages and shares. I love them!  See you next week.
