✨ Witchlight & Whisper: Crossing the Threshold of Samhain ✨

Gorgeous Soul,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Ready!

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

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

You picked yes?

Shall we go see?

FOREST TEMPLE

Enlightenment

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

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

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

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

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

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

EAGLE SPIRIT

Freedom

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

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

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

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

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

Don’t be trapped by the expectations of others.

DAFFODIL FAIRY

New Beginnings

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Belonging in the Season of the Otherworld

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Gorgeous Soul,

We’ve stepped across a threshold, love.
We’re officially in the season of the Otherworld. 🍂

The winds of autumn are carrying whispers from the unseen realm, and this month’s reading comes as a balm for the nervous system with one clear, steady message:

You belong.

No matter what chaos is blowing in from the outer world right now, the message for October is simple and profound—we can create stone circles of stability within ourselves.

Anchors in times of change.

Places where we remember: we are heard, we are held, we are not alone.

Why Autumn Feels Different

The ancient Celts knew this. They felt autumn as the richest time of year to connect with the unseen. The veil thins, the harvest comes in, and the visible world above ground begins to retreat back into the earth. That’s when the Otherworld rises closer—full of healing, creativity, and possibility.

And haven’t you felt it? That subtle shift? The way dreams turn wilder, intuitions grow sharper, and sometimes your ancestors seem to slip into the room beside you?

Autumn holds both withering and abundance. It asks us to gather in what has ripened and to let go of what no longer serves. It carries loss and it carries possibility.

It is an initiation into your own mythical unfolding.

Creating Your Stone Circle

When I think of this season, I think of stone circles—ritual places built at thresholds, aligned with the solstices, equinoxes, and stars. They were meant to hold people steady through great change.

This month’s invitation is to create your own “stone circle.”
✨ Maybe it’s a quiet corner in your home that you return to each week.
✨ Maybe it’s time set aside for meditation, journaling, or walking in nature.
✨ Maybe it’s a candle lit every evening, marking your center.

Whatever it looks like for you, let it be your anchor. A place where you can step back into your inner world, reconnect with your own center, and remember your belonging.

Because here’s the truth: if you are not at the center of your own world, your world has no center. Autumn is reminding you now—it’s safe to take that place. It’s necessary.

The Thinning of the Veil

October always carries huge gifts, messages and visions for me.

Ancestors show up in my dreams, insights arrive unannounced, new pathways open.

And I want you to be open to that too.

Yes, the outer world may feel chaotic this month.

But inside, through your anchor points, you can connect to something steady and luminous. Think of it as touching into rainbows underground while the storm rages above.

This is the balance of autumn—the seen world fading, the unseen rising.

And in that balance, your soul expands.

The Aries Super Full Moon – October 7

This Full Moon is like an exhale after the intensity of the eclipses. It’s asking: What are you ready to let go of? What has served its time?

Because it’s the first Full Moon since Equinox, it also brings to fruition intentions seeded back in March. Something you began earlier this year may now come to harvest—or return for another layer of learning.

And, by just a day, this moon is the Harvest Moon. It invites you to gather what this year has given you—not only food or things, but the wisdom, the lessons, the growth.

Even as baskets fill, the withering begins. And that’s the deeper teaching: endings are not failures, they are the natural turn toward rest.

Walking with the Ancestors

As we move toward Samhain, ancestry is alive in the air. The same moonlight that shines on your face once touched those who walked before you.

Their presence is woven into this season, reminding us that we belong to something larger, older, and enduring.

So this October, build your stone circle. Touch into your center. Let yourself belong—to yourself, to your ancestors, to this living, breathing world.

Because you are not walking this season alone.
You are heard.
You are held.
✨ You belong.

So with all that being shared and said. Take a breath, see a glorious stone circle that welcomes you and then pick the card or cards that whisper.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

HOWL WITH FIERCENESS

Wolves, like women, have been regulated to the dangerous side of wildlife.

Both species are greatly misunderstood and often accused of menace.

Yet women, like wolves, possess a propensity for courage in the face of danger, strength in the quest for well-being, and loyalty to mate and tribe.

When we are no longer willing to shame ourselves for our natural fierceness, or condemn ourselves (or others) for the need to love and hunt and roam free, Wild Woman rises.

What do you need to be fierce about?

Are you willing to let it out?

If you are choking down your words to “fit in” and call it a life, you are being invited to tap into your wolf energy.

GATHER YOUR TRIBE

They say your vibe attracts your tribe, and nothing brings them to you more swiftly than when you’re willing to be clear about who you are and what you want and why you want it.

No more people pleasing to make others happy.

If you have to contort and compromise, they’re not your people.

When we allow and attract versus contort and demand, we gather the lost pieces of ourselves together and Wild Woman rises.

Where is the box feeling a tad tight?

Where are you not using your authentic, delicious soul voice?

CHAMPION PEACE

Your mind is a temple where peace yearns to be worshipped.

It’s easy to respond to war with war, especially within ourselves.

One judgemental thought leads to another and soon your mind is a battle zone.

But peace and war cannot rule simultaneously.

You get to choose who will rule the mind’s temple.

Right now you’re being invited to become an advocate of peace.

When we choose love over fear and peace over war, Wild Woman rises.

Do you fill your mind with the news, hate the divisiveness and allow it to take hold?

Where do you let yourself in your mind and body walk in love and peace?

Oh my golly goodness! You seriously can’t make this shit up! What perfect guides for this time!!! So my gorgeous one, I wish for you a week where you invite in the stone circle, create your anchor points and allow yourself to breathe in your ancestors, whether of blood or choice – and start to listen to their guidance.

Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!

🌾 Mabon Magick & Birthday Blessings!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Gorgeous Soul,

How are you? How was your Virgo New Moon Eclipse?

Today is Equinox and my birthday!

I was reflecting that on my birthday/equinox last year I climbed up a Tor in County Cavan at 5:30 in the morning to gather with 200+ people who had made the trek in the dark for a glorious Celtic Equinox Celebration. It was frigging amazing!

This year I thought of how I wanted to celebrate my birthday and realised I have never ridden a city bus since moving to the Island, nor have I ever worn an inflatable costume! (Can you see where this is going?)

Some of my amazing friends are willing to come play with me on this venture and we are going as Fairy Unicorns and Dinosaurs in our inflatable costumes, and will be riding a bus and then dancing on the lawn of the Legislative Grounds with our bubble wands! (If there is no reading next week, we may possibly have been detained lol).

Why am I doing this?

Because it will make me laugh, and probably make a lot of other people laugh and smile and quite frankly I think we could all do with a little playfulness and lightness regularly. Yes?

Before we chat about Equinox (briefly), as I mentioned last week.

Yes, I am opening 20 spots only from Equinox until the end of September for readings. I am offering two reading specials – the Archetype or the Mabon spread, or you can choose one of the regular readings.

Up to you.

Okay, take a breath – Mabon/Equinox is here , that place of balance, gratitude and bounty – both inner and outer!

In celebrating Mabon we give ourselves time to focus on gratitude and open our hearts to the great natural world around us. Gratitude is so empowering and healing: it helps us to create a conscious connection with each other and the universe and see our life’s journey as an endless cycle of in-breath and out-breath, of giving and receiving.

We are beginning to turn inward. This is a time of balance just as it is for the natural world around us. We feel the coming of the darkness and are pulled towards our spiritual side in a new way.

Here is a lovely Equinox Blessing for you to repeat to yourself slowly and let the words seep into your soul.

A couple of great questions to ask yourself at this time are – Where do I need Equinox’s balance in my life right now? What am I being called to let go of for myself this season like falling leaves?

It has been amazing to hear how many of you have taken advantage of the incredible offer on the Mabon Magickal Playbook and have shared with me how supportive it feels, how it is connecting you back to a place you had forgotten, and the rituals you are trying out. That makes me smile from ear to ear! Whoot!

Chuntered enough, so let’s crack on.

Okay so let’s get centred shall we. Just gently breathe yourself back into your body, be here now, just at this moment. I invite you to see in your mind’s eye the Divine Mother (whatever she looks like to you), breathe. Then imagine her putting one hand on your feet and one hand on your head and saying “Everything between my two hands is beloved and blessed by the Goddess.” Breathe that blessing in, allow it to swirl through you and know how loved you are. Then when you’re ready; pick the card or cards that wish to bless you this week.

Did you pick?

Shall we go see?

ABRACADABRA

Say it with me: “Abracadabra.”

The word has been associated with hocus pocus sleight of hand trickery. But it’s so much more.

It’s an Aramaic word meaning “I create as I speak.”

This is the time to believe in your vision, and honour the power of that light source. Draw close to wonder. Embrace possibilities. Your dreams ache for a way into the world.

You are their lighthouse, delivering them from etheric waters into the harbour of reality.

Let yourself be their ally. Hold onto the truth behind all manifestations: Seeing is not believing; believing is seeing.

Believing in the magic helps manifest it into the material realm of your life.

Say it again – Abracadabra.

BUBBLE YOUR BOUNDARIES

Sometimes you just have to live in your own bubble.

Your energy and vision are worthy of being protected.

This moment asks you to treasure your value and guard it with a bubble of protective energy.

This isn’t just about an ability to say no to what doesn’t serve you. This moment is more about you holding space for Source as it lives in you.

Resit looking to an outside source for that sense of protection: a romantic partner, intimate friends, family.

Right now your challenge is to honour yourself as the Beloved.

Cast the sacred circle around your body and soul.

Imagine facing our current reality from within its loving, protective embrace.

You get to choose what enters that sacred space, and what must remain outside.

EMBRACE SELF COMPASSION

All beings deserve compassion. Why would your dear self be any different?

Compassion is praised in our culture, but self-compassion is seen as indulgent and weak.

This moment calls you into acts of loving kindness. Toward you. By you.

Human beings are hardwired for love and struggle.

One of the best ways to practice resilience between the two is self-compassion.

Put your arms around your inner self with all the gentleness you can muster.

Consider this: You are the only you in the entire universe. You deserve to experience love from the inside out, independent of what the world offers or takes away.

Nothing can change your inherent value.

It is the golden Hart of mythic lore.

Treasure it with kind thoughts.

Oh my gosh, I so, so, so love the cards. Perfect for this moment in time! So the most delicious one, please take a moment to breathe in gratitude and like a tree, allow the leaves of release to drop like cosmic compost. If you haven’t grabbed a copy of the Mabon Magickal Playbook I highly suggest it. Oh yes, and come play with the Archetypes (they are really quite stupendous!) and see who wants to walk with you until the Winter Solstice, or take advantage of another reading.

Take good care of yourself, go kick up some Fall leaves and remember – you are loved, supported and seen! Big love, hugs and Blessings!

Walking the Eclipse Gateway: A Threshold into Balance.

Jenny Heston · 4:44 pm ·

Hello gorgeous soul,

There is so much delicious magickal energy swirling around right now.

We are in the middle of the Eclipse gateway, the Virgo New Moon Eclipse on September 21st and then we have Fall Equinox on the 22nd! Wowzer,

So grab a cuppa, let’s nestle down and have a wee chat shall we?

First, let me ask – How are you doing in the midst of the Eclipse Gateway? Lol

I have had lots of feedback and emails from you ranging from WTF to I finally RELEASED it, but now what?

I have also received multiple questions basically saying:

HELP: Is there going to be a Magickal Mabon book this year? Yes

This year we have the Mabon Magickal Playbook filled with everything to connect you into Fall Equinox and because Equinox is my birthday I am offering it to you 2/3rds off.

HELP are you going to do readings? Yes.

On Equinox I will open 20 spots only with focused seasonal readings for this time, and I will post that invitation next week.

Now back to the Eclipse gateway.

We are in the midst of a Lunar to Solar gateway (and that does make a difference).

When you are walking the Eclipse Gateway between a Lunar Eclipse to a Solar Eclipse, usually there is a theme of release and letting go in order to make space for the new.

Lunar Eclipses have the ability to pull and drag things out of you, almost like the Moon’s gravitational pull helps to draw things out that have been buried deep within.

This “pulling” or “drawing out” energy helps you to release things that are no longer serving you and can bring old thoughts, patterns, and beliefs to the surface in order to be cleared.

As you walk the Eclipse Gateway after a Lunar Eclipse, it is likely you may feel drained and lethargic. You may also feel the need to go within, reflect, and spend time on your own.

Hidden truths and feelings may also come to the surface, and you may have to deal with old wounds that you had pushed away or forgotten about.

Lunar Eclipses always challenge us to dig a little deeper and push a little further so we can create more awareness around our thoughts and habits, and this is something that definitely intensifies as we move through the Gateway.

Lunar Eclipses can also bring endings, and these endings often occur during the Gateway period itself.

As you move closer to the Solar Eclipse, a sense of lightness usually follows, and you may even start to feel space being created in your life.

Ending with a Solar Eclipse indicates that the months ahead are all going to be focused on creating the new and filling this new space in your life with something more positive and aligned.

It also indicates that the months ahead are going to be filled with action and energy, and you are going to be supported to move forward.

Do remember that on the Virgo New Moon Eclipse, this is not the time to set intentions. It’s more a case of letting the dust settle a bit.

Then the next day is Fall Equinox! Frigging love this celebration.

During the equinox, the Sun crosses the equator, effectively moving from the Northern to the Southern Hemisphere.

What’s truly intriguing is that the equinox delivers almost equal portions of day and night.

This balance of light and dark makes it an extraordinary time for magical practices, as it serves as a liminal space where energies are uniquely harmonized.

It’s like the universe is pausing, giving us a chance to recalibrate.

Traditionally, this period heralds the beginning of harvest season, a time celebrated by agricultural societies with various harvest festivals.

In nature, animals take this as their cue to prep for winter, either hoarding food or commencing their migrations to warmer locales.

If you’re into historical landmarks, you might be fascinated to know that Stonehenge aligns precisely with the Sun’s position during both the Autumn and Spring Equinoxes.

During the equinox, its alignment with the Sun is so precise that it defies coincidence.

Our ancestors knew that this wasn’t just a day; it was a gateway, a moment of potent energy that demanded attention and action for the welfare of the community and the individual alike.

Hence why I created the Mabon Magickal Playbook, she is Sassy, Soulful and Spellbinding (her words, not mine lol).

She invites you to step into the golden glow of Autumn and her playful mystical voice will remind you: balance is sexy, gratitude is powerful, release is sacred.

Okay, let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

Take a glorious deep breath out, let all the stale old air just leave your body and at the end of your exhale hold for the count of 3. Now take a deep breath in and as you fill yourself with this glorious prana energy, invite in the energy of change and release. Let it swirl through your cells and into your heart space.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug or entice you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

ACCOUNTABILITY

When we take responsibility for our choices, we gain integrity and the right relationship with ourselves. Optimally, our decisions are conscious ones made with consideration for the likely consequences for all involved. However, this is not always the case.

In life, we learn as we go. As we become aware of a more beneficial way to handle ourselves, others and life, we do so accordingly. We maximise our chances of this when we remain open to addressing any damage or ill feelings that arise toward ourselves and others.

The refusal to acknowledge our flaws and imperfections that show up in moments of poor discernment and behaviour thwarts our growth and inner harmony.

Life gets easier and infinitely more beautiful and warm, the second we accept that we – like everyone else – are humanly imperfect and that this is perfectly acceptable.

The things we wish we had not done or had approached differently are gifts.

They are necessary for learning how to do things differently going forward. They are also what make us increasingly compassionate and understanding of others and their actions. We are not our mistake but what we do with them. All of our past choices can be used to help us grow into the truth of ourselves.

They help us identify what is aligned with our Spirit Self in the less obvious places.

Accountability is an act of self-love, compassion, and acceptance that benefits all. However, the most important person to be accountable to is yourself.

It can be helpful to develop the habit of checking in with yourself each day by asking: What am I doing and why? Is this aligned with my values and Spirit Self? If so, proceed.

If not, ask yourself: Is there another way, a way that feels good and true for me to continue, or does this behaviour, thinking, situation, or person need to go? Do I need the perspective of someone who knows better and is more experienced in this area?

When you are accountable, you stand empowered, confident, and with integrity.

BROKEN DREAMS

We break our dreams when we cease to believe in them and ourselves.

Our attitude toward disappointment, perceived failures, and rejection has the power to derail our confidence. When a prolonged state of defeat and doubt ensues, we not only give up on our dreams and ourselves but also on what makes us feel alive.

It can be hard, but we need to trust that the way to realise our dreams is by persisting and working with the disappointments as well as any perceived failures or rejections. Perceived setbacks are often opportunities to learn to think differently, to develop further, and to explore new ways of realising our vision.

When we interpret, and therefore turn, challenges into actual setbacks, it can feel like the world has rejected us. In response to this feeling, we give up too soon.

The world does not reject us. It cannot. Of course, it may feel like it does, but what is more likely to have transpired is that certain individuals, organisations, and opportunities have said no to us for one thing at one point in time.

The world is full of many more individuals, organisations and opportunities if we continue to say yes to ourselves.

To abandon your dreams is to abandon yourself. There is no need for this. Explore ways of doing what you love differently. Being flexible with the way that you go about realising your vision will save you from much unnecessary heartache, regret, lost time, and despair.

Do what makes you feel alive in your life.

Never lose sight of what lights you up and makes your Spirit Self sing. No matter what.

CIRCLES

Our thoughts, emotions, behaviours and relationship patterns are potentially detrimentally circular when they remain unconscious.

Without acknowledging that we do not know what we are doing or how to get different results, it seems as though the same disappointments, ruts, and detours keep happening to us. This is because we do not realise our subconscious part in these unwanted reoccurrences. Nor that we have the power to exit the unmerry-go-round.

If we do nothing different, nothing different happens. We will only continue to re-enact our default setting automatically. A life lived in circles inevitably limits what is possible for us.

It can also be particularly harmful when toxic relationships, addiction, or financial dependence is involved. Awareness of how we perpetuate more of the same is necessary before we can consciously create an upward and outward spiral of life for ourselves.

Circles that spiral downward are the effects of unconscious repetition and confusion. In this sense, we are the ones who prohibit us from venturing forth upon new ground. To acknowledge that we do not know what to do about something, we begin to see with increasing clarity, logic, desires and emotions what is confusing and therefore prohibiting us.

Once we can see things for what they are, we can recognise what we can do about them.

There is always more than one way out of any circle. You are ready to be free and go forth.

Focus your attention on who you are without the loops, fears, distractions, and preoccupations.

In other words, focus on who you would be and what you would do without the problems, drama, impossible lifestyle, or comfort zone you may be circling.

You are your white horse, ever equipped to venture forward.

Wowzer! Those are some deliciously potent messages for this month and this New Moon.

Sending you big hugs and squeezes, grab your Mabon Magickal Playbook, keep your eyes peeled for the Equinox reading and remember……

Be kind to yourself, be true to yourself, be honest with yourself.

Pride and Prejudice! Welcome to July.

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Mythical, Moxie, Melodious, Marvellous, Magnetic, Mirthy, Manifesting Monday!

July is here! Do you realise we are half way through the year (and what a year it has been!)

We have Canada Day on July 1st and I am going to go and participate in some of the celebrations, but I will say hanging out with 10,000 people is very short lived for me. Let alone with the heat! So there will be glorious garden time for rest, relax and play.

Then of course the US has July 4th celebrations (which means they get a long weekend!) Lucky buggers.

Here, in the city where I live, we have had Pride month and it culminates with a fantabulous parade next weekend!

I have to say I love Pride month, a time to celebrate the diversity of the human package that we come in. As an ally I honour each person’s right to choose who they are, how they identify and whom they choose to love.

When I was a teen in Oxford, most of my closest friends were people who were a good 15 years older than me, and were gay men. Gosh! I had so much fun, I learned a lot and I always felt safe, loved and appreciated.

There was a lovely chap called Gaz who was an incredible illustrator and would create the most magickal, whimsical imagery for children’s books and he would share the most amazing stories. He was a very special person.

A couple of years ago I helped run a booth, because as a lay chaplain and someone who performs ceremonies, rituals, weddings and funerals it felt important to share that diversity and inclusivity were welcome.

I dressed as a glorious butterfly, thanks to my amazing niece who has a tickle trunk of costumes and odds and bits, and had the most amazing connections and conversations!

This year, I will be helping carry a 50 foot long Pride Flag and dressing as a dark faery, armed with bubble wands galore!

So I will say the people who come out to heckle the parade, or the ones that sabotage some of the pride banners that the city had painted and created on the walkways, really?

I appreciate there are some people who don’t “approve” of diversity, inclusiveness and want everyone to conform to their ideal and opinion.

But in my world – everyone has an opinion, just like an arsehole.

Doesn’t mean I want to hear it, smell it or see it! (Just saying!)

I hope we get to a place and time where we can include and accept everyone, with no regards to colour, gender, identity, religious beliefs and so much more. That would be an amazing healing for the human race and to be honest, our planet.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and cards to ask who was willing to support and guide this week – there was no choice whatsoever. These guides were adamant they wanted to support.

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

Faeries are magical beings who are guardians and protectors of our precious planet. They care for plants, flowers and trees, and us daft humans. They want everyone to experience their ancient wisdom and to feel reconnected to the Earth, our home, and to self.

The faeries are delighted to spiritually support and encourage you on this fantastic journey as you walk upon the faery path. And they remind you – there’s more to life than what you can see with your physical eyes.

Okay sweetie, let’s take a moment to drop in. Take a glorious deep breath out and allow the energy that you have been holding in your lungs to expel. Then take a glorious deep breath in and invite in the energy of inclusivity, what does that feel like for you? Let that energy meld into your heart space and gently open.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

HEALING

Healing can take many forms, even just through listening – when we feel we’re being heard it can make us feel better, so people who have the ability to listen with love and without judgement are already healers.

Sometimes just being in the presence of someone who is receptive to our thoughts and feelings can help us to feel uplifted and healed.

Do you feel you are able and willing to give this healing?

Hands-on healing is a technique many feel drawn to, and perhaps this is something you, too, wish to explore. Are you in need of healing yourself? Is there something that you are pushing through “because it’s expected?”

It’s important to listen to your body, mind and soul and take time out so it can heal naturally. Make sure you’re getting all of the correct vitamins and nutrients. And remember sleep can also be an amazing healer.

Explore healing therapies that may be new to you, such as aromatherapy, flower essences, hands on healing, art therapy, colour therapy – whatever piques your interest.

Believe and trust that you have the capacity to heal yourself and others. Explore and embrace that piece of yourself and allow it to flow.

HOPE

Hope is the key to the door that can lead you away from any predicament you are in.

No matter how hopeless things may seem, if you look deep inside your heart your spiritual heart wisdom will reveal a glimmer of hope, and this can lead you to a brighter future.

This gorgeous faery reminds us to always tap into hope, because looking for hope and joy and changing your beliefs can literally change your future.

As you can see on the card a rainbow and a dove of peace are shown and they often come together reminding us that anything is possible. Sometimes we just need an extra boost, so the faeries fly in on the wings of a dove to let us know that they’re with you with any difficulties you are experiencing.

Remaining hopeful while those around you are full of doubt and negativity can be extra challenging, but remember that hope comes from deep within our hearts and is an excellent habit to cultivate.

Heart wisdom and hope will see you through whatever is going on for you and those around you right now, so have courage and trust as the Faery of Hope walks hand in hand with peace and miracles.

NATURE’S SIGNS

The faeries love to leave hints and clues for us in nature. It’s one of the many creative ways in which they initiate communication with us.

For example, faeries often leave feathers or release floating dandelion seeds to let us know they’re nearby. The appearance of a friendly bird, such as a robin, is another message that they are close by.

Faeries and other creatures often work together as they’re all in harmony with the Earth, whose wisdom can come in many forms. Just allow yourself to be receptive and use your intuition to decipher any signs that you see.

If possible, sit next to a flowing stream and visualise your cares being resolved and any concerns flowing away. Alternatively, imagine your hopes and wishes flowing towards you, looking out for any significant signs from nature as you do so.

You could also leave your own sign for the faeries next time you’re out in nature, letting them know you wish to connect with them. Leaving a tiny wooden fairy door next to a tree is a sure sign to the fey that you’re a faery friend.

The faeries will pick up on your intentions and help to manifest them. If you don’t have access to a stream, it can be just as effective to visualise the process.

Those are some gorgeous delicious messages! How did the card you picked resonate for you? Have a stupendous week, delicious lovely. Remember to breathe and to celebrate your diverse unique self! And most of all have fun! (Life is so much better when we remember to play!) Big hugs and squeezes and bubbles galore!
