Divine Support

Kissing is Banned! Post Eclipse and New Moon. Weekly Reading July 16th.

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Mellow, Magnetic, Miraculous, Mindful Monday!!!! Phew (You have to admit that wasn’t bad for alliteration!) How has your last week been delicious lovely? I did hear from a lot of you that you were getting a tad tweaked with the eclipse and New Moon energy and to be honest, if you are at all sensitive (which most of us are), then of course you are going to feel it. I did my first ever public Facebook Live to talk about this (and that was terrifying lol).

Remember that the New Moon sets the energy for the month, right? So the energy for this upcoming month is sensitive (as the New Moon was in Cancer), all about what makes you feel at home, nourishes and supports you and the invitation to step up into more of what you want. So this is where Intention comes into play, in a big way. Energy follows Intention, so set your intentions with clarity and let the energy follow them. Please don’t set an intention and then the minute you are done start second guessing it, as guess where the energy is going to go? You guessed it, after the second aspect. So my invitation to you is as we navigate this energy for the next couple of months (yes I did say that), and play with the Fire energy of this season – key thing is be kind and gentle with yourself and allow (note that word) the feelings to come up and just flow through you. Some days you are going to be so inspired and filled with vim and vigour that you want to go conquer the world, other days you may feel like you want to hide out in a dark closet with a large bottle of wine and a straw! Just let it flow and stay focused on your Intention, okay?

I will be honest, the energy for me over the last 6 days has been intense at times, and there have been brief moments when I would forget all the tools in my tool box and turn into a gibbering lunatic (figuratively, not literally) and at those moments it would take a herd of wild horses and multiple lassos to reign everything back in! Or to go for a big walk in the woods, or sit with my feet in the creek. Hasn’t helped a ton that the weather has been brutally hot as being a redhead I tend to wilt in supreme heat and get very crotchety! Thus for good chunk of the week, as I have been outside a lot, I have felt a bit like a reverse sundial. Instead of following the sun I have been moving in the opposite direction and following patch of shade to patch of shade lol. Which to be honest, has helped keep me a tad cooler which is awesome and allowed me to get done a good chunk of what I needed to outside and not bite anyone’s head off! As I was prepping for the reading I was doing a bit of research and did you know that Kissing was Banned in 1439? Me neither. Apparently it was banned in an attempt to stop the “Black Death” from spreading. Curious as to how it was enforced…….. I mean seriously, there are a couple of people kissing in their little stone floor kitchen? How would that be dealt with? Most odd.

Today when I went to do the reading I found a patch of shade in my garden surrounded by wildflowers, creeping thyme and roses. The sunflowers are slowly opening and I think when it is all said and done I will have about 50 – 60! (The birds really helped with that). Besides hanging out in the garden and sitting on the grass, watching the bees dip in and out of the flowers, the hummingbirds dash in with their frenetic wing beats and the butterflies nestle, brings me a sense of peace.

So with all that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading. It was no surprise to me that the Oracle of the Dragonfae were itching to come play. They are deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names. The crystals that came out to play were interesting. We have Aragonite – which balances the energy field, works with all chakras, renewal, strength and healing. A glorious heart made of wood, and Stilbite – which expands consciousness, and helps organise the mind and release confusion as well as helping you take charge of life by committing to a direction. And of course Selenite to amplify and clear.

There is a glorious visualisation to help you get really grounded and open to the possibilities prior to picking a card, should you so choose. It involves a garden, but you won’t need garden gloves or tools. If not, then just take a few moments to come into your body, breathe, put the burdens of the day down and go within. Allow your inner wise self to rise up and whisper to you. When you are ready, give a great big smile and pick the card or cards that call to you. Enjoy.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

LADY OF THE NEW BUDS

See how my garden has grown about me? See how my children, the darling buds, clamour for my attention? They cry at night and can be so touchy during the day! I must shelter them from harshness and keep them in a safe place, till they are strong enough to branch out….even then, my watchful eye will look out for their care.

You see, so many people see the beauty, and do not understand where it sprang from; the rich, loamy soil. The sweet water poured from the water-Dragonfae into this earth, the minerals of the natural realms, the light of the Sun and the shining sweetness of the crystal moon have all anointed my garden with their blessings. And then there is me. So many see my garden, and wonder at it, but they do not see the work and the care that has preceded my domain. Its beauty is a result of love, care, natural growth and attention to each and every one of its inhabitants.

When your growth appear around you, from the seeds you have planted, take time to tend this garden. Enlist the assistance of like-minded souls, and just as you would not feed these tender buds poisons and pollutants, do not feed your ideas the opinions and energies of those who are not in integrity. Stay true to the vision of your creation and truly take a little time each day to tend this garden, be it of love, ideas, little ones or creative endeavours, until they are robust and begin to grown into their own energy. For now, it is the tender time, the time when the buds are at most risk from the frost of rejection, the poison of judgement, and the choke of cruelty. Be vigilant, and you too will have a garden for all to enjoy and love.

Many will feel you’re fortunate indeed to have created such a beautiful Eden, but they will not see the care you have taken to grow this. But I have seen. I have seen it all.

THE LISTENER

How much have you missed because I could not have the space, the wild quiet, the blessed peace in which to whisper my secret straight to your soul? How much more could you be aware of if you simply took the time to be still and silent? The whole world can be heard in a moment….and now it is your time to be still, and to be silent. Listen and truly understand what it is you are hearing. Listen with your being, your entire being, not just your ears. Allow your senses to be the soul’s messengers. Sometimes we need to be quiet and listen. But first of all we need to be quiet. So many people talk so much of the time. And the talking and the talking and the filling up of space simply drowns out the messages.

The dragonfae do not decry conversation and robust dialogue, the joyous clash of friends talking with each other, or the singing out of voices….especially when raised in joy, celebration, song and good cheer! But this card speaks of a time when it would be right for you to be still, and to listen, as the world whispers her secrets to you. We do not want to be making so much noise that we drown out our own signs and messages. So be still. Be silent. And be ready for the messages to come in sweet, subtle and magickal ways.

It’s time to remove yourself from the hustle and the bustle, from built-up urban and industrial areas, and go deep into nature and find the still pace of solitude in which the soul can speak – and be heard! Turn down the stress, the demands, the social whirl, the noise that can drown out meaning. In the words of Shakespeare, chatter is often “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” You would do well to seek the counsel of spirit in nature, to rest in a quiet grove within. Furthermore, when the soul speaks, listen, come into alignment and act from that space of integrity. The Listener does not feel the need to tell all about what she has heard. In fact, she is content to simply act, without broadcasting her moves, and to allow her dreams into being, to follow the guidance of her message without exhausting the energy of the message by talking it out.

She is silent and she seems still. But all of her actions are powerful and purposeful because they are born from a pure, still place of energy. Hers is the quiet glade and sudden, glad truth of the soul, and in these truths are great wisdom and delight.

CHUMARA

Beyond the mask we all wear of identity, beyond the construct of who we have been conditioned to believe we are lies your face, your self. This face is tender and new in so many ways, as you have not shown her to the world before. This face has been protected because the world has seemed and proved indeed at times to be a dangerous and unkind place, where those of us who feel different are proved to be so as we brave the taunts and finger pointing. But I now tell you that your protections, your armour and your shield can be removed safely with me. Do not discard her, as you may need her yet in certain situations. But know now she is your armour and her role is to protect your true being.

To you, I now reveal myself. See? Many have recoiled in horror at who I truly am. I m a Dragonfae Maiden, a spider Woman, a being of webs and change and destruction, and re-creation. Each day I must remake my world….I feel along its sensory threads to see what needs reconstruction and what needs to be let go of. For I am, as you are, part of the new web of life – a web of life that embraces our differences and yet understands that we are one.

I ask you today to look at the webs in your life that must be remade and rewoven….. Remove your mask that says “I am this,” and know you are that, but also so much much more.

Wow! Nurturing, Being Quiet to hear the messages and Removing the Mask. Love it! And it’s sooooo apt for this energy at this time. Thus my delicious lovely, I wish for you a glorious week of cooling moments, also moments of stillness and quiet where you can hear your soul whisper to you. Glorious glasses of clean water and the knowing that you are loved and supported no matter if you feel like a mess. Also remember – Energy follows Intention.

Huge hugs and squeezes! See you next week.

Partial Solar Eclipse in Cancer! Which raises the question – What does Home mean to you?

Jenny Heston · 12:00 pm ·

Hello, hello my delicious lovely! Happy Marvelous, Magnificent, Manifesting, ‘Mazing Monday! (Yes, ‘mazing is a word or at least it is now.) How the heck are you? How are you finding working with this gorgeous Fire and Passion season? Remember, if you find yourself getting too hot, overwhelmed and frustrated then take a little time to cool off both literally, figuratively, mentally and energetically. There are some super easy pranayama’s that help cool the mind, the body and the energy. A super simple one is to curl your tongue like a straw, let it stick out of your mouth breathe in slowly through your tongue straw, close your mouth, hold and exhale through your nose. Very cooling. Here the last week was rainy and cooler, I had gone and bought a ton of wood to build a shed and ended up tarping the back of the yard to keep the wood dry. Within about 3 days it was baking hot and I still haven’t taken the tarp down as it now provides shade whilst I build! Even the dogs are hiding out there or in the house, or under the deck! So make sure if you feel heated you back off and cool it down a tad.

I had a very cool experience this last week and wow, if you doubt that the Universe is paying attention – let me write a reference for the Divine, she is listening very clearly and avidly. What I have noticed in the last few years of magnificent manifestation is clarity is key! Phrase it clearly, put emotion behind it, forget the “how’s” or how it should look and trust. An example. 2.5 years ago I put something out there, very loosy goosy and rather vapid, last August I put it out there again with a bit more umph but my ego was most certainly getting in the way. On Solstice by the ocean I put it out there again with clarity, confidence and certainty. Wow! 14 days later the Universe rolled out a series of events that were literally like a bulldozer clearing the path for me and saying – You asked, we listened, are you bold enough? Hells to the Yes!!!! (Though terrified as well!) So exciting adventures will be ensuing!

As I mentioned last week, we are heading into Eclipse season, and our first one is a solar eclipse on Thursday July 12th. This delicious Eclipse happens in the soft and tender sign of Cancer at the New Moon. Now Cancer is the sign of “home”, that doesn’t necessarily mean a structure, it’s that feeling of where we belong, who our tribe is, who is our community, our work, do you feel at home in your body. Yes? Now if you remember I mentioned last week that Eclipse’s bring all sorts of beautiful things to light, those feelings that have been hidden or stuffed, the dreams/aspirations that you’ve tucked into a box as “they don’t feel practical”. If you have been feeling a bit out of sorts, nostalgic, a tad fragile emotionally, reflective or confused then you are feeling the energy of the eclipse.

So when I asked the cards who wanted to work with us all, guide, support, inspire and help us with this very transformative energy the Divine Circus Oracle literally jumped so high that it was like a hand to the forehead! This is a gorgeous deck for the bold, the ones that find it hard to follow the rules “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 and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us a moment earlier. “

Funnily enough before the crystals, the first things that insisted on coming to participate where the glorious Hansa roses (if you have never smelled one you need to find one!), and mint. Why mint? Mint is a glorious cleanser and abundance attractor, pop a leaf or two in your wallet or purse and see what happens….

The crystals that came to play are Rose Quartz – to remind us to not stuff the feelings, numb or avoid, but to feel and know your heart is strong. Indigo Gabbro – helps unearth deep rooted issues in your psyche, it knows and gets you, it sees your weaknesses and totally understands your strengths, and strips away the false facades you have built up around you. Smoky Quartz – is amazing for balancing and grounding as well as helping you to vibrate at your fullest potential as it releases negative emotions. Wow! The perfect cards and crystals for the first eclipse.

Thus, I invite you to just take a few moments for yourself, to nourish yourself, get clear and to breathe. Breathe into your belly, into all the corners and down deep into your toes. Let’s practice the nice cooling breathe of breathing in through your curled tongue or pursed mouth long and slow and holding for two and then breathing it out through your nose. As you breathe, feel your jaw relax, your scalp relax and your shoulders drop. There is nothing that you need to do right at this minute, this time is for you.

Then when you feel ready pick the card or cards that resonate or whisper to you.

Ready?

Shall we go have a look?

WHITE DUCHESS

Don’t look to what has been to find your destiny. Your future is bright and blessed. If the pain of the past feels a little too close for comfort, White Duchess steps in to help you leave behind the emotional storms of your past and move into her protection. A time of transition is upon you and soon your feet shall settle upon sacred ground, and calm shall prevail, inside and out.

Are you one of the many suffering in a dark and stormy inner world of post-traumatic stress? Do you believe that because there have been struggles in your past, and perhaps at times even great pain, that this is how your future shall be too? Or perhaps you have been striving towards a dream and it seems so long since you began that you are losing hope of ever breaking through into successful fulfillment and a new life.

Don’t look back. Let the past be put to rest. Whatever has haunted your dreams, whatever has caused turmoil is over. It is not needed anymore. There is a future destiny calling to you now. It is time to transition through into a new world, into your new life. Trust her and believe in the positive power of your future.

DEATH SHALL NOT TAKE HIM

You are going to witness the impossible made possible. Whatever you think is lost, is not. Whatever you think cannot be, shall be. The universe is going to intervene and what seems to be over, shall in a new way, live again.

Sometimes, just when you think it’s all over, the eleventh hour comes. You can practically hear the opening chords of your swan song, and when you have finally given up, suddenly, somehow, right before your eyes, everything changes – just like that. You were free-falling and then, suddenly, you are soaring. Fate steps in, destinies are altered and life demonstrates its creative, restorative power, even if all seemed lost.

No matter how defeated you feel, no matter how many dead ends you’ve encountered, how many setbacks, how many failures, no matter how impossible success may seem, the universe has your back and is going to right things in your favour. You will succeed. So if you really must (sigh) doubt for one more moment – go ahead, then replace doubt with trust and participate in the divine defiance of life refusing to be stepped on or crushed. Why not just frigging relax and bear witness to the universe’s impressive display of life-giving power with reverence and delight? Gorgeous one – get out of your own way!

DUKE OF SHADOWS

Cunningly clever am I, helping you discern the truth from the lie. I remind you that half truths may seem to be whole, yet in the shadows is information yet to be known. When the time is right, the light shall be bright, and confusion will give way to understanding.

You are being invited to be patient. This is a cautionary card, not to inspire concern, but rather to inspire curiosity. There is more to a situation, person, opportunity, or even an apparent absence of activity or success, than meets the eye. You could imagine it being like the universe has another card up its sleeve and is yet to show its full hand. A process has been set in motion but is “under the radar” of your awareness. Something is happening, even if that doesn’t appear to be the case. But just like a seed starts to grow into a plant, deep in the earth, apparently invisible and yet very real, you are being subjected to invisible but real forces of growth and healing at this time.

Because you cannot know what you don’t know, you will need to wait for more information to come to you. So if what you see, sense or feel is negative right now, don’t believe it! Things are going to shift and change and there will be a surprising twist in your life. Though you don’t see it coming, another piece of your life puzzle is going to reveal itself soon. It will help solve a difficulty or question you have been holding in your heart.

Firstly, thanks to everyone for your lovely emails, comments and messages, I love them! Secondly, remember to be gentle with yourself this week, try to find little pockets of time where you can explore what you’re feeling and as New Moon approaches play with getting some clarity on an issue, or situation that you would like to see manifest. Oh yes, remember, if you find yourself getting over heated whether due to hot weather, or energetically, practice the cooling breath, drink water and find a nice spot in the shade where you can put your feet in the grass! Have a superb week and see you next Monday.

New Moon In Gemini, Ancestors and Summer Solstice is almost here!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, happy magnificent, magickal, mesmerising Monday! How are you delicious lovely? Have you had a glorious week? If you remember from our reading last week, the energy of this month is one of moving from Air to Fire (ideas to manifestation) and also Discipline and Action. Thus, have you played with either of those energies in the past week? With the New Moon in Gemini on the 13th (Wednesday), this is a glorious time to really take the ideas (Air) and set wishes/intentions towards the passion and intentional action (Fire) you want to take. If you have forgotten how to make New Moon wishes, don’t worry, we have you covered!

The last few days here have been far cooler and rainier, which in a way has been quite lovely as it has saved me watering the garden, the plants are growing in leaps and bounds and it’s also meant that I have to be indoors more. Thus, those lovely housekeeping tasks that I had been putting off due to the weather being so stupendous, got done! But what I found really interesting was the whole concept of Ancestors that came up as I was doing things like polishing the furniture and taking down the cobwebs. (And no, no hallucinogens were being used whilst cleaning the house!)

How it all came about was as I finished polishing the 70 year old dining room table, I was gently smoothing a gorgeous hand tatted tablecloth over it and I realised that that particular table cloth was 99 years old! What??? My great aunt had made it as part of her wedding trousseau, and as my hand ran along the intricate hand tatted lace I could imagine her as a young woman sitting by a coal fire, with a lamp lit, gently putting together all the pieces that she would take with her when she got married and started her own home. Wow! Ancestors. Then a little while later I was sorting through papers and getting things ready to pop into the post today. I am renewing my British passport and so I had asked my mother if she happened to have a copy of my father’s long form birth certificate. She most certainly did and when it arrived in the mail there was also another long form certificate written all in Gaelic. Hmmm, what is this? It was was my father’s fathers long form birth certificate from 1883 where he was born in County Mayo Ireland and there were the names of my great grandfather and my great grandmother and the profession of the male. Holy Hannah, that was cool. I know back to three generations on the maternal side, but only 1.5 generations on the paternal side. Ancestors. So this got me to perking even more, how often do we acknowledge, invite or even explore our heritage, ancestry? I know quite a few people who have done the DNA Ancestry Testing and have been quite surprised by the results, and as cool as that is I guess I am thinking more about the faces and the energy aspect of Ancestry than the DNA piece. Does that make sense?

When I used to Karma Krew at Enlightened Warrior, one of the sayings that we used a lot was “AHO” as an acknowledgement and in various of the “processes” that would occur in this format of camp often you would hear “aho mitakuye oyasin”, which is a phrase from the Lakota language meaning “I welcome all my relations”, it acknowledges the connection to lineage and to nature. Ancestors. This in turn got me to thinking about when I meditate or when I am out in the woods, what if I were to invite the wisdom, teachings and supportive energy of my Ancestors to be with me, would it make a difference? Well I tried it yesterday out in the woods, and all I can say was it was pretty stupendous. I felt like I had my own special entourage with me, guiding me, whispering words of encouragement and holding me in an energy of love and safety. I highly encourage you to give it a try!

Phew, so with all that being said let’s crack on with the reading. I was delighted to see The Oracle of the Sacred Rebels come out to play, as I was highly curious to see which deck would pick up on the energy of Ancestors and New Moon Intentions. Then I asked the crystals who would like to come and they literally pointed me to the rocks. The rocks that are part of the biggest crystal we know of – Mother Earth. This made me giggle in delight as often when I think of Ancestors I think of “The trees and the stones, the plants and the bones.” Therefore, the reading was done outside on a bed of glorious rocks.

So are you ready? I invite you to ask your ancestors for guidance as you breathe and look at the cards. See if they are willing to come show you what you need to know for this week. If you need a bit of support with really tapping into this type of energy, I have created a pretty interesting visualisation for you. There is a little cosmic travelling, but it won’t take long and you will be totally safe. So just breathe and let’s go on a little explore.

Did you pick the cards or cards that whispered to you?

Shall we go have a little look see?

FOLLOW YOUR OWN RHYTHM

Deep within you are moved by an ancient, powerful force that cannot be tamed. It is the rising pulse of your connection to the life force. You feel it in your bones, in your blood, in your heart and in your belly. When there is something dying within, you sense it falling away, no longer needed. You sense when it is time to rest and be patiently in transition. You feel the stirring of agitation and restlessness when new life calls you to create, to act, to step forward and to take a risk. You know that you march to your own bet, that no-one else can tell you what your inner rhythms are and that you must trust in your own timing. You cannot be rushed or forced, nor can you be held back when it is time to burst forth. Life celebrates and supports the natural rise and fall of your inner rhythms.

You cannot miss what you are destined for nor will you gain anything by trying to push yourself. Trust in the life cycles within, and you will feel the perfect balance between effort and surrender, discipline and letting go.

When it is time for the rhythm of rest, you will feel a natural slowing within and be drawn into contemplation and environments are more gentle, spacious or nourishing and perhaps more peaceful. When the rhythm of play beats in your heart, you will reach out to others to connect, dance, converse, sing, make music, make love and share your wildness. You will be drawn to uplifting groups and places where you can experience a positive energetic exchange.

Your needs will be met in harmony with your rhythms. All that you will miss out on by trusting this, is anxiety. What you will gain is peace.

WHAT DO YOU FEEL?

There are many opinions around you. Some are helpful but others are distracting you from your truth. Although it can be helpful to hear the thoughts of others, when it all comes down to it, you will have to come to your own decision. Do you know how unique you are? How your path is your path to be chosen, lived and created – only by you? Someone else cannot become the source of your decision-making power without negative repercussions for both of you in the long run.

You have become swept up in thinking things through. You have been thinking about which way to go with a matter of importance and you have got a bit stuck in the logic of the decision making process. Sometimes we have to accept that any path is a path forward and if it is not the best path, we can change our approach later on if needed. If we are slightly off base with a decision, life will often shift and move to guide us back on track. We don’t have to be perfect. In fact, there is rarely ever a perfect choice to be made – just some choices that feel more heart-honouring than others. Sometimes we can only really know in hindsight if we made the best choice possible in that moment. At the time of decision-making, we only really have our internal wisdom to rely upon. And that is all that we need.

Don’t punish or traumatise yourself with possible choices. Just making a choice will set things in motion. The best way to catalyse the situation you are in and bring about healing change, stimulate your creative juices and find a more inspired, energised and enjoyable approach to your life, is to just make a choice based on what you feel right now. Not based on anyone else’s feelings. Just yours. So ask yourself – what do I feel right now? And go from there.

GOING BEYOND NORMAL

On the path of life there are deciding moments where we can choose to go with the mainstream or we can dare to take a bolder, more authentic and trusting way – even if it seems riskier or less safe. To rely solely on logic and science, without incorporating the mysterious and magical is a recipe for an existence that is far too dry! The sacred rebel within our hearts will always choose a juicer approach to life. You are currently approaching such a choice point. You could say that the choice is about balance. It is less about choosing to honour either art or science, gardening or architecture, and more about integrating all approaches so that you enhance rather than hinder your life journey.

There is a time and a place for logic, strategy, planning and measurable outcomes. These are not bad tools to have but we must be vigilant not to worship them or allow them to quash or less rational, but equally valuable decision-making tools: intuition, feelings and those things you know, without knowing how you know them! The flowing, inspirational energy of the heart may have no conceivable basis in logic or reason and still be uncannily accurate. To remain rebellious we must not sacrifice the art of emotion, instinct, passion and intuition, for the science of logic and strict planning!

You are being asked to stay open to the intuitive approach in your life, your work, your creativity as well as in your spiritual journey. The intuitive approach can be likened to the method of a gardener or an artist. There is a sense of what might work where and a loose or even a detailed plan, but how the plan is carried out will depend on and respond to the flow off its surroundings. There is no need to control the situation but rather a desire to nurture an idea to fruition.

You are moving outside of the plan! You are living on the border of what is socially accepted. This is good. This is fringe-dwelling freedom. Others might not see this about you straight away as you seem pretty normal but that secret eccentric streak is just waiting to show itself. And, maybe you are an out and proud fringe dweller, completely comfortable with this way of being. Either way, you have a chance to live from the heart more deeply and expressively than ever before. You need to realise that this is a legitimate, empowered and creative way to live that honours all of who you are. You can give up forcing or squashing yourself down into a very limited set of so called desirable qualities like intellect and control. It’s time to get a bit wild and let nature take its course.

What a glorious reading! How did it feel for you? There is lots to perk at this time with both of the different energies of June, tapping into your ancestral line for support, New Moon and Summer Solstice next week. Holy Hannah! Don’t get overwhelmed, don’t avoid either. Just relax and ask for guidance and support. Two things, firstly, thank you all so much for your lovely emails and comments, I really appreciate them all and the sharing of stories. Secondly, the reading will be coming out on Tuesday of next week, as I am driving for 12 hours on Monday. This will be a lovely Summer Solstice reading and there will be an idea for ritual to help you really hook into this wonderful energy. So do make sure you are signed up for this as you won’t want to miss it. Have a fabulous week and remember to lean back into the guidance that is always there for you. Huge hugs and squeezes! (Oh yes and yummy choccie biccies with hot tea). See you on Tuesday next week.

It’s the First Monday in June and it’s time to get Passionate!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, magnificent first Monday in June delicious lovely! How are you? Did you have a glorious last week? We are now in the beginnings of June and I’m very excited, I love June. Why? Summer Solstice and this year my sister is going to be over from the UK and for the first time ever we will get to celebrate it together! Whoot, whoot! Huge happy dance.

The energy this month is deliciously delightful as well – remember how last month the shamanic energy was Re-Aligning your Values? Well for June the energy is all about Discipline and Follow-Through. “This month provides us the opportunity to show up and follow through in action with the realizations, understandings and truths we now have about where we are, what we want, and what we need to do. We have spiritual and intuitive openings that provide a much-needed anchor to the world of positive possibilities. At the same time, we can struggle with resistance to the physical discipline required to keep moving ourselves in the right direction. This is all seated in the 3rd chakra, the Solar Plexus chakra, the house of will, self etc.

Now this also feeds into something I have been exploring within a different community. I am part of the community of Medicine Keepers, a wonderful space and place created by the very talented and amazing Maia Toll. For the last 5 weeks we have been exploring how from Late Spring to Summer we are moving from Air (the element of Spring and the place of ideas) to Fire (the element of Summer and Passion). I don’t know about you, but I have lots of ideas (sometimes too many so I’ve taken to writing them down instead of chasing after them like a squirrel). However, as wonderful as it is to have all these ideas, if there is no fire, no Passion then they just stay random arsed ideas. It’s kind of like having a gorgeous beeswax taper candle that looks amazing, however, unless you ignite it with Fire it can’t burn. You can’t watch the flame dance in the breeze, you don’t see it’s light. Yes? You with me now?

Thus, I invite you to think of one thing (you can of course think of as many as you want), however, pick one thing, one idea that has been burbling (love that word, makes me think of a glorious big pot with yummy things in it bubbling away) for you. It may have come up last month when you were re-aligning your values, and decide how you are going to ignite it – what Passion are you going to bring into play to make it manifest? Sound good? For me, my main idea that I am going to focus on is a course that is near and dear to my heart that I have been writing on and off, it has really been burbling and growing over the last few months, but now needs me to step up and finish the content, shoot the videos and get er done! As her time is ripe.

So with all that to perk as we go into the reading, let’s go. (See – Follow-Through! Lol) The deck that really wiggled and was very passionate about coming to guide and support this week was “The Faery Forest Oracle”, which doesn’t surprise me as we all need some magick when moving from Air to Fire. Interesting to see though that feathers (representing air), a fire agate (representing fire) and a bunch of brass screws came to play. Now you may be thinking, ummm, err, what’s with the screws. But think about it, someone had an idea (air) but it took the application of fire to metal to create the screws.

So let’s take a moment and just get grounded and centred. Take a slow deep breath in and imagine there is a lit candle in front of you, and as you gently sigh out your breath through an open mouth, watch the flame dance and move. Keep breathing in this way and realise that you are playing with Air and Fire, ideas and passion. When you are ready, gently roll your shoulders up back and down and let them nestle along your spine like tucked wings and pick the card or cards that are tugging at you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

THE LIFE BRINGER

About you now ideas and projects are gestating, constellations of ideas are birthing, your creativity is flowing from within, and ideas are developing in an easy, organic flow. For a time, you will be rich in health and loe and in physical beauty. While there is much that is new about you, what has already been developed within your world can now be brought to greater fulfilment – so children may begin to mature and grow older, and your ambitions and your dreams may need support to move from their beginnings to become truly established and make their presence strong and unshakable.

Your accomplishments will now be acknowledged, respect will be given as it is overdue, and your contributions and your work will now receive the value and recognition they deserve.

Your influence, power and reputation are all growing in healthy, inspiring ways. You feel good in yourself – a loving relationship with your body now develops, and you accept and receive loving support from others. No more will you receive disrespect – unkind words about yourself or your ventures will no longer be tolerated.

You are growing in stature – finally, the world sees you for who you are, a successful being who has followed their dreams.

FAERY GODMOTHER

When the Faery Godmother comes to you, be aware that this is a time when you will discover what has been long hidden to you – your true self will be revealed in surprising ways every day, and sudden moments of heightened perception will make this time especially significant for you. People finally get found out, manipulators can be seen through, true costs of circumstances are revealed, and any lies about you will be seen. This can be hard, but it is truly a hardship that is born of protection – you are safer for knowing in whom you can trust in order to make the right choices for your soul.

Throughout these revelations and insights will be a guiding hand – and this is the Faery Godmother. She is showing you what it is you need to know in order to create and foster a life that works for you – and she is protective force too. So what you need will come to you now, sometimes in very strange ways. Be mindful of counting your blessings at this time – for this energy your Faery Godmother can draw upon to keep transforming your life into one which is more abundant, magickal, meaningful, and joyful.

Note every moment of truth – they are all significant, and you are better for discovering what was once hidden from you.

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 healthy, create more wealth, learn and study, and also offer your support and investment to worthy others. Take care of yourself, and truly mke 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.

Wow, wow, wow. Let me say again how much I love the cards! What a glorious reading to launch us into these two delicious energies of June! All about ideas, movement and manifestation. Whoot! It’s going to be a delicious month and we are going to do something fun together for the Solstice I can feel it burbling already. Anyhow delicious lovely, have a stupendous week, give yourself a few moments to pick an idea and decide what/how you are going to follow through with it and what does that passion look like. If you feel like sharing, please do, let’s witness each other during this fantabulous month. Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week! (Remember to drink water, laugh, smell the roses, watch the bees and play as well).

Full Flower Moon, Shed Building and Hot, Hot, Heat!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, happy magickal, manifesting, marvelous, last Monday in May! I don’t know about you but I sure feel that this month has just flown by! Phew. How have you been? It feels like yonks since we last connected, and yet it has only been two weeks. It was sooooo nice to celebrate the long weekend and just relax, play, hike and plan. On the Friday of the long weekend I was sitting out in the garden and looking around and appreciating how with the hot weather we have been having all the plants are pushing out of the ground and reaching for the sun. In fact one whole bed has self planted itself with sunflowers! I must have at least 60 in there, so we will have to do some gentle transplanting so they all have room and space to grow and flourish.

Anyhow, there I was perking and looking when all of a sudden I realised I needed a workshop, or a shed or a something. A structure that could be home to all my tools with a lovely rack off the side to hold the paddle boards and kayaks. So I grabbed my tape measure and wandered around the yard looking for “the right location”, when I found it I measured it up, grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil and started sketching out what I wanted. How big, what roof design etc etc. (This is where my capacity to over think can be a royal pain in the arse!) A few hours later I had called the lumber yards, priced out all the wood etc and poured concrete pads (not bad for a Friday night lol). Then for the next 2 days I dug, and dug, and dug and levelled, and dug and dug (have to say I wasn’t digging the digging), and doing that in a balmy 98F was a bit much. However, by the end of the weekend the area was level and ready to welcome a new structure. I on the other hand was sun crispy and feeling a tad peely wally as I had had too much sun! So this last weekend, I grabbed the wood and have built the foundation and got the floor on – whoot! Whoot! Huge happy dance (in fact I think I did one on the floor of the workshop). So the next part is my favourite, framing the walls in and getting them up and clad. This lovely workshop is going to look fabulous by the time she is done and I’m building little planters to hang on the outside and I might even paint some lovely flowers up one wall – but that will have to wait a while. However, it feels good to be building and creating and taking something from an idea into manifestation, right?

On Tuesday we welcome in the glorious Full Flower Moon. This is a glorious time to really luxuriate in seeing the plans you made months ago coming into fruition. It’s also a fabulous time to tend your most cherished and promising endeavours as well as to create more future plans that are really aligned with who you are and your values. Make a list of all the things you would like to do, be, create etc for this upcoming summer season and then put that list outside with your crystals and let it get deliciously charged up with this fiery full moon light. I personally plan on putting all my crystals outside, including the ones that I wear and letting them have a gorgeous moon bath.

The deck that was very wiggly and jiggly to come work with us this week is the wonderful Divine Circus Oracle, I so enjoy this deck and the insights it brings me. The crystals that were adamant it was their turn to play are Mookaite, Jasper and Calcite, and what better place to do the reading than outside on the floor of the new workshop with a dusting of Rowan tree petals.

So let’s take a moment to just settle into ourselves. Take a glorious deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and let your face, shoulders, scalp gently relax. As your breathing starts to slow trust yourself and allow your inner deep wise one to float up to the surface and help you pick the card or cards for you this week. If you would like a bit more support with settling in, there is a fun guided visualisation that honours the flowers of this Full Flower Moon.

Ready?

Shall we go see?

Princess Victorious

You are being asked to be a big picture person for the moment. Sometimes immediate gratification has to give way for a grander scheme unfolding, which will ultimately lead you to far greater and more meaningful success. What seems to be a delay, obstacle, loss or even failure now is a twist in the plot of your life, necessary for your gracious destiny to unfold according to a higher plan.

It can be hard to keep faith when you’ve been defeated just one too many times. It is easy to make fear and doubt mean something they don’t; it’s usually something like being doomed to fail and so we might as well give up. However, fear and doubt are just symptoms of fatigue. They are signs that we are feeling battle weary when it comes to life. To overcome weariness and create happiness, you are being asked to temporarily surrender your need to win – just for now. Instead, you are guided to step back, regroup, replenish, be kind to yourself and know this: sometimes you have to be willing to lose the battle to win the war. That means being willing to go through things in the short term that might seem like failure without losing confidence, courage and trust that everything is going to go your way in the long term.

Know that you are strong and determined enough to bounce back and overcome difficult circumstances. You will be given the power to succeed at the right time and in the best way for all concerned. So give in to how your journey is unfolding – even if it seems like you are losing when you’d rather be winning – but don’t give up hope. Trust that the universe is strategic. It is helping you to succeed. If you need a sign to know that things are going to work out for the best, even if it seems like they are falling apart along the way, then this is it!

Joker is Wild

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense. It is laughing with you, not t you. You’ll see this for yourself as the Joker weaves her magic in your life, bringing you the grace that is beyond all reason, the necessary ingredient to ensure you win with the hand you have been dealt by life. There’s nothing impossible when the Joker appears. Her wild ways can transform a losing streak into a lifelong love affair with lady Luck.

Strap yourself in and prepare for the ride of a lifetime. The Joker has come to you and the Joker is wild. Unpredictable and brilliant, she brings you a message. You are being empowered to overcome all odds. So you are going to win. No doubts, no dramas, but not necessarily in a way that you expect either! She is sending the best possible situation to you even now. It might startle you, like a sudden light in the middle of the night, but it will be welcome nonetheless.

You probably won’t see it coming. It will probably be in a way that subverts everything you once believed to be true. But it will be a welcome trick by the Universe, a loving joke that opens your heart and helps you realise that this vast impersonal universe personally knows and cares for you, so intimately and with such meticulous care. Just don’t expect to feel in control of the process, for the Joker is wild and moves according to her own genius, but always blesses you with what will work best, beyond compare, now and always.

Divine Disguise

Some blessings are obvious – the door that opens, the person who says yes and the instant success of an idea. But not all blessings are instantly recognisable. Some blessings are so veiled that at first you might consider them to be an unwanted development. A concealed blessing is either already at work in your life or on its way. Don’t worry if you feel like things aren’t working out as they should. Soon enough, the disguise will be dropped, and the blessed unmasked in all its beauty.

Blessings are the mysterious workings of the universe, there to help us along our unique life path to live our truths and fulfil our potential. The universe has the knack of knowing just what it is we need, even when sometimes we might think we need something altogether different. This is how it can be that something we resist and reject in our lives can become the very thing we’re most grateful for later on. The real beauty of a situation isn’t obvious to you yet. It could be a delay or change in plans that turns out to be in your favour, even if at the time you aren’t sure it signals failure! It could be the wrong person saying no so the right person can say yes. It could be being blocked from turning back to your past, so you must continue forward into the magic of your future.

But trust and have peace of mind and a realisation that the universe does really know what it’s doing. It’s in your corner, on your side, cheering you on and helping you avoid unnecessary pitfalls, even if you don’t know they exist.

So delicious lovely, have a wonderful week. Remember to wear sunscreen, drink water and celebrate all the wonderful little things that happen in the day. Like the crows that come strutting through the yard when I put the sprinkler on, they have a glorious shower, fluff their feathers, give a deep croaking caw and fly off to preen themselves. So looking forward to seeing you next week. Smile, Breathe and Trust. Huge hugs.
