The Full Flower Moon in Scorpio!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 pm ·

Happy Marvelous, Magickal, Mystical, Maniacal, Musical, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday! 

How are you most  gorgeous bean?  How was your Mother’s Day?

I have to say, mine was exactly what I needed.  Garden time, receiving glorious plants from my kids (as they know I love plants), carrot cake, family and playtime!

Okay, today we have the glorious Flower Full Moon in Scorpio!

 Its presence in our dark night sky will act as our reminder that all is not what it seems. Life is a mystery, a web that is forever weaving. Perhaps it is only when our time has come to an end that we are able to make sense of our journey and the fullness that it brings.

The Scorpio Full Moon is one of the most magical Full Moons of the year as it beckons us to dive deep. If we dance on the surface, we can struggle with this watery Full Moon, but if we allow ourselves to really settle into our being, to really honor the darkness and the light, we can find this Full Moon enlightening and awakening.

This moon is often referred to as the Flower Moon and its spiritual meaning is rooted in pleasure, laughter, and the wild, open-hearted energy of Spring.

The truth is, May is when Nature shows off. Wildflowers span fields and mountains, and trees are bursting with fragrant blossoms. 

Everything seems to be flirting with its flourishing energy.

May’s Flower Moon almost feels alive. Yes, it’s named for flowers, but it’s also what those flowers represent: Life at its fullest.

After all we are in the glorious fiery energy of Beltane with the May energy of Deepening into who we are really here to be.  

This full moon phase encourages sensuality, play, and the pleasure of existing in a body that can feel, laugh, and love.

Don’t be afraid to blossom into your best self to reach your highest potential!

May’s Full Moon helps you manifest abundance through fun, not force. It’s not about control; instead, allow everything to blossom when it’s meant to.

At this time ask yourself:-  What do you think it means to be wild? How can you enjoy your wild side more often in your day-to-day life?

Then go do it!

So with all of that chuntering (if you have got this far), let’s crack on with the reading. 

When I went to the cards to see who wanted to come and guide this week, it was most interesting. 

4 years ago I received a new deck called Crystal Mandala Oracle and I put it on the shelf.  Then last week I was told very clearly to consecrate, bless and start working with the guides.  So of course I did!

Once I did, Wowzer!  Signs all day!  

So my darling ones, the guides of the Crystal Mandala Oracle were adamant that they be front and centre this week.  

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce:-  “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.”

Woosah!  Perfectly awesome for this moment in time!

 The crystals that came to join are the gorgeous ones from the beach!

So my gorgeous one, let’s take a moment and just settle.  Settle into your body and breathe yourself into the here and now.  And as you breathe I invite you to see in your mind’s eye the energy of Joy, Spring exploding and Deepening into You.  

When you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at you, whisper in your ear.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we have a peekie?

GODDESS GAIA & OCEAN JASPER

Good Will

We bring you the empowerment of good will.  There is a type of spiritual power you can co-create which benefits and protects you whilst mutually empowering others to take their journey and experience divine success.  This spiritual power, known as goodwill, is generated by how you feel inside and the attitude you cultivate towards others.  When you know you have value, it is easy to recognise the value in another.  When you feel encouraged by the Universe, it is easy to encourage others.  As you put out support, encouragement and good will for the success of all beings, this energy is amplified and returned to you.

When you feel peace within, it’s easier to recognise that you have a place in the world and a destiny no person can take away from you.  And when you recognise that, it’s easier to know that others also have their own place destined for them alone.  This removes fear and competition, and allows you to become an encourager.

An encourager is a person who generates goodwill.  They are not afraid of missing out.  They believe in their own destiny and operate within a field of abundance.  They trust that their rightful divine inheritance will be bestowed upon them.  They trust that all people can receive without causing harm or diminishment to any other.  They believe in win-win situations and know the only way humanity can evolve is together.  So they want others to succeed.  They are happy to be at the cosmic traffic lights, so to speak and allow the others who have a green light to go first.  

Good will that is cultivated by individuals becomes part of a collective field.  It is the psychic equivalent of a group of angels, perhaps with cheerleader pompoms, waiting in the sidelines until someone needs help.  Wish each person well.

MELT INTO DIVINE DESIRE

Goddess Pele & Lava Stone

We bring you the empowerment of melting into divine desire.  There is a time and a place on the spiritual path for detachment.  The ability to step back and perceive from a neutral perspective can bring great clarity.  There is a time for the mind to become clear and peaceful and open to divine guidance even if that means temporary loss for greater long-term gains.  There is also a time to melt into divine desire, to allow your passion to motivate and inspire you to attain great progress on your divine life journey, where less fervent longing could not.  Desire doesn’t have to be a distraction from your divine path.  It can be a way you discover what has meaning for you and what you feel strongly enough about to never give up on.

Desire sometimes gets a “bad rap” in spiritual circles, or it is celebrated as being something should be pursued without restraint.  The truth that will serve best is more in the middle.  Desire need not be a distraction nor a goal to be pursued at any cost, even to your own integrity.  

Desire on the spiritual path can become a way to know what is going to move and inspire you enough to see you through the challenges that arise when you want to create a contribution to the world.  If you long to bring your ideas to life, rather than keep them only as ideas, then desire can become enlivening fuel for the spiritual path, motivating you to act rather than hesitate.

The more you peel back the layers of the mind, the more pure, simple and clear your divine desire will be.  Giving yourself permission to discover and honour your divine desire is what connects you to Pele, the passionate volcanic goddess, radiant with power.  If you want to know just how powerful desire can be, think of the power of a volcano erupting.  

Imagine being able to channel that raw power into fulfilment of your soul and manifesting your dreams in the world.  That is what this blessing of Pele brings you.

ASCENDED MASTER MERLIN & MYSTIC MERLINITE

Read the Energy

We bring you the blessing of reading the energy.  We affirm that you have the ability to read energy accurately and we encourage you to apply your gifts.  You don’t have to be in control of the inflow of divine information.  When a message or insight comes to you naturally, this is best.  Simply being open and receptive as you intend to read the energy of the person, place or situation at hand is enough.  Whether you have been reading energetically for years or are just beginning your journey in interpreting energetic information, we are here to assist you in becoming confident and trusting in your perceptive abilities.

Your perceptive abilities are a key part of your life purpose and divine life’s work.  Developing, relying upon or honouring what you sense energetically is helpful for your life journey (as it assists you in making good choices) and is helpful for others who can benefit from your ability to see what they may not as yet be able to consciously recognise.  

When you share your perception from a place of unconditional love, non-judgement and genuine compassion, your reflections can help others gain awareness and insight, which they can then use to empower themselves, overcome fear and move more wholly into love.  This is of benefit to all.

Plants don’t need logical understanding to be able to reach for the light.  It is an instinct.  You have the same natural instinct to be attracted to the light, to what will nurture and nourish you, to the best choices for you.  As you learn to get to know your own needs and what suits you (and doesn’t suit you so well), you’ll be increasing your ability to read your own energy in a refined way, as well as learning how to better heal and restore yourself on a regular basis.  

Holy Hannah, as have said over and over again.  You can’t make this shit up!  So delicious one, sending you huge love and light this week.  Stay safe, laugh often, find those random moments of Joy and most certainly dance!  

There may not be a reading next week as it’s a long weekend and I plan on playing, talking to the flowers and relaxing.  Sending you big hugs and blessings!

 

Welcome to 2025, and Today’s Wolf Moon!

Jenny Heston · 11:11 am ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

We are slowly, quietly, calmly entering into 2025, and all that it portends! 

How are you most delicious lovely?  It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a few weeks!  And I will say I spent those couple of weeks facilitating The Omen Days (which is such a glorious way to enter a new year), and all the amazing women who participated really blew my hair back!

Welcome to 2025.  

I would love to tell you this will be a gentle year, but it’s going to be intense!

While our numerology points to a year of endings, astrologically, we are shown that all endings pave the way for new beginnings.  

As in 2025, we remarkably have four major planets and the lunar nodes changing signs. It is incredibly rare to have so many planets changing signs in one year, so this definitely makes 2025 stand out!

Also, remember we enter the Year of the Snake on January 29th, and if we look at the Snake it is continually shedding the old to make way for the new…..

Thus, instead of spending pages going through the above (as those of you who have signed up for Opening The Doors on 2025 will receive), let’s talk about today’s Full Moon.

Beneath the Full Moon of January 2025, something magical stirs and whispers secrets of old. The Wolf Moon brings a luminous and mysterious energy as it lights up the sky. 

January’s Full Moon meaning reminds us of our connection with the wild spirit of wolves.

The Full Wolf Moon occurs on January 13th, 2025, reaching its peak at 5:27 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

January gets its name from Janus, the Roman god of all beginnings. 

Janus is often depicted with two faces, one looking to the past and the other to the future. This makes January the perfect month for reflection and fresh starts. 

Which is why we are starting Flourish on January 18th!

If you have been sitting on the fence, there are only two spots left and you won’t regret gifting one to yourself!

As the New Year dawns, the world remains cocooned in darkness during these short, fleeting days. 

Yet, we’re hopeful as we nestle in our homes during these cozy, chilly nights. 

The Wolf Moon is a time for rituals involving inner strength, protection, and connecting with Winter’s wisdom.

There are so many rituals to do at this Moon Time that connect you to your inner strength and Winter’s Wisdom.

A simple one to do is go Howl at the Moon.

In a place where you feel comfortable, stand with your feet apart and your hands on your hips in your best superhero pose (Grey’s Anatomy fans will know what I’m talking about). Studies (like this one from Harvard) have shown that if you maintain this position for five minutes, you will perform better at a difficult task. It also helps build confidence.

However, why stop there? Think of a negative feeling or stressful situation that’s burdened you. Now, while maintaining your superhero pose, give a few big howls. Imagine that worry and negativity leaving your body. In its place is nothing but tranquil energy and peace.

This can be a wonderful way to release tension, anxiety, or heavy emotions. I mean, at minimum, it’s a big mood booster.

I’ve also created some fabulous Journal prompts to help you dig a bit deeper.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that flew out and at me this week  are the amazing Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh my soxs off – as with all the energies swirling and the bizarre weather patterns that are happening, the world does feel like that right now.

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to, would be exceptionally rude!)

“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  moments 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. “

Thus, I invite you to breathe and just BE with your gorgeous self here at this moment.  Take a few lovely, rich, nourishing breaths and let the cares of the moment slide off like wee little raindrops.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

If you need some help and support releasing the “shoulds”, the weight of energy around you I have a lovely guided visualisation for you.  It’s fun, we are going on a yomp and an explore!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s Go See Shall We?

JOKER IS WILD

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense.  It is laughing with you, not at 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.

The Joker is the highest trump card to beat all others.  

No matter how much another may seem to have the upper hand, or how many forces seem to be against you, even if you feel like a lone wolf about to be mauled by a pack of hungry lions, the Joker always wins.  

She comes out of the blue, and changes destiny from darkness to light.  She brings the brilliant solution that ends a problem, the way through that is best and brightest.  

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.  

RED COUNTESS

Deep within, you know what is true and what to do (or not do).  Yet there is so much noise and distraction in the world, and even at times in our own minds, that listening for our inner wisdom can seem like trying to hear gentle birdsong in the midst of a rock concert.  

Even so, you are hearing an inner truth, and deep down, you know it.  Can you trust that it is safe to not only hear your inner voice but act on it too?

There is something that you know.  You’ve felt, sensed, heard or realised this truth more than once.  Even if others see or feel differently, you just know what you know, even if you don’t quite know how you know it!  

Give your truths value.  Hold your feelings and insights in high enough esteem to pay attention to them, to give yourself time to process what you think, feel and sense. 

Know that they’re worth acting on, even if that action just means to trust more and stop worrying.   

If you cannot figure out what your inner truths are, or you feel confused by conflicting thoughts and feelings, torn between head and heart, then you are in a state of information overload.  

You need to switch off, discharge some excess mental and emotional energy and take a break.  Give yourself some time out from the crazy noise and constant distractions of the world so you can get in touch with what is true for you.

SILVER SIREN

When is an enchantment not enchanting?  When it is a spell that you allow to consume your free will, even as it promises so much and yet delivers so little.  

The Silver Siren sings her song, a pretty poison to the soul.  Her false allure tempts the mind, even whilst the heart feels that something is not quite right.  

Your power will come from discerning the truth and allowing her false promises no place in your heart.

If you compromise your integrity you will find that what you have obtained was not worth the price you paid for it, no matter how much you believed it would be otherwise.  It simply will not be worthwhile.  

The Silver Siren is a false light that is so very enticing but so destroying.  To disempower the false light, you must stay true to what your heart says. 

No matter how much you may fear you’ll regret it later on, simply say no to that which is unworthy, to that which does not hold the truth of love within.  Even if a person declares that they are utterly enlightened and only interested in your highest good; even if the opportunity at hand is “too good to miss”, making your mind needy and confused, follow your heart – if it’s not a Hell Yes, it’s a NO!

You are being given an opportunity for empowerment.  It is time to trust yourself and stand firm with your truths, and to experience the priceless sense of love, safety, security, peace and self-possession that this brings.  

With this, your soul can sing its own song, a song that shares true light, the lightness of a heart that lives in peaceful truth with the world.

Holy Hannah, you can’t make this shit up!  What fabulous guides to kick us off in January.  

Take time this week to really FEEL into what you want to experience this year, and how you want to ALIGN with it.

Use the Wolf Moon energy to really release and allow you to dream.  

Big hugs and squeezes, and if you want to join us for Flourish, there are 2 spots open and we start January 18th.

Entering the Season of Quiet…….And Deepening……

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Mythical, Marvellous, Musing, Manifesting Monday.

Here we are in December!  The last month of 2024 (I’m still shaking my head as this year seems to have flown by and a lot has happened).

So welcome to December, the time when all the commercials advise you what to buy, where to go, what you should have and how you should celebrate!  

Which I will be honest feels a tad too much, especially with everyone trying to shove a “Black Friday” deal down your throat.  

It occurred to me that they really play on that feeling of FOMO (Fear of Missing out).

I actually had a few people email me demanding why wasn’t I doing a Black Friday Sale?????

Mmmmm, how would I put this, I don’t want to.  I don’t believe in ramming things down people’s throats or using fear and manipulation to force them to buy now. 

Not my thing.  

Let alone it is incongruent to what the season is inviting us to do.

Which is turn inwards, reflect, nurture and Deepen.    

This is why I personally love this time of year.  

The days are getting shorter as we approach Winter Solstice (Yule), yet there is a stillness and a quiet that comes with the early dark.

Our ancestors knew about the importance of the fallow season.

Of letting the land lie fallow, to rest and digest, to compost and recuperate.

I look out over my garden and it is going dormant as winter approaches, but I know that under the surface things are gently incubating.  

Now is our chance to look within and enjoy spiritual hibernation, peace and renewal. 

The seeds of our future, resting in the rich earth, need this period of stillness, as do we.  

This modern holiday seasons can be a hectic time, when the stresses and strains of keeping up with getting everything “done”, keep us locked away from nature and more natural ways of being.  

I love to walk at night with the doggos and witness the sparkly lights, like gorgeous stars beaming out in the dark.  

They feel soothing and welcoming and remind me that we as animals are part of nature and this is our hibernation, our deepening time.

I believe one of the most important steps as Winter approaches is the process of slowing down, of decluttering, of tying up the loose ends.  

It’s about intentionally turning within, reflecting, undergoing some material and emotional decluttering so you can ease into the next phase (or year) with more – well – ease.

And calm.

And inner peace.

And enjoy the pause.  

It can be challenging to participate in Cyclical Living in a Capitalist World, to say the least!

It can be challenging to enjoy the pause.  As we are conditioned to move on to the next thing as fast as possible.

But there is power, healing and transformation in slowing down and getting comfy in the pause.

Thus, I invite you – if your soul resonates with this feeling.  

We will be doing The Omen Days again this year.  

Starting with a glorious Solstice gathering.  

Last year there were 200 of us who walked this path for 12 days and it was incredible!  Deep, Rich and oh so delicious.  I will share more about The Omen Days next week.

Also, there will be the Book of Winter Solstice (BOWS), a glorious guide to help you shift out of the hamster wheel and into your being.

And for all of those who have asked, yes there will be a Theme Reading for 2025 (nearer the end of the month).

And last but not least in January we are running Flourish – so that you can step into 2025 in a different way.  

So no, I don’t do Black Friday Sales – I do Intentional Work that invites you to go deeper.

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

We have some lovely guides this week – The Woodland Creatures and they have some glorious insights for you.

Thus, I invite you to slow it down and take a massive breath out (yes out) through your mouth.  As you do, let all the dross, the weight go out with that breath until your lungs are empty.  Then take a deep breath in through the nose and allow all the corners of your lungs and belly to swell, inviting in guidance, possibilities, insight and love.  

Do this a few more times.  

Then when you are ready, pick the card (or cards) that call to you.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a wee peek shall we?

THE BAT AND HELLEBORE

Intuition

Bats are guardians of the night, representing dreams, visions, and the subconscious.

They show us how to access our mystical side.

Hellebore is an unusual flower.  

Blooming in the winter with downturned sepals, it resembles a cup being poured out – a symbol of emotional candor.

Together, the bat and the hellebore tell us to trust our intuition.

Your instincts can be relied upon.  

Curl inward like the hellebore, and as the blind bat trusts its hearing, trust in your intuition to guide you.

If  you are willing, ask yourself these questions:

How can I learn to trust my gut?

Do I need to analyse a problem, or is the answer more immediate and instinctual?

THE RACCOON AND SYCAMORE

Curiosity

The Raccoon and Sycamore calls us to explore a thrilling new interest, idea, or opportunity.

Raccoons are intelligent creatures, dexterous and eager.  

Often likened to bandits due to the mask-like markings around their eyes, they are quite loveable rascals – rarely seeking to cause harm – they are just curious.  

Like the raccoon, the sycamore tree is associated with a desire to learn and know.

In the Bible, a man named Zacchaeus climbs a sycamore tree to get a better view of Jesus as he passes through the town of Jericho.  

Jesus rewards the man’s curiosity by visiting his home.

You are well equipped to explore uncharted territories.

Climb high into the tree of your interests, bounding from branch to branch.

Now is an auspicious time to discover new truths about yourself and your abilities, and revel in them!

If  you are willing, ask yourself these questions:

What new hobbies or interests do I want to explore?

What makes my soul light up?

What have I wanted to try but been too afraid to?

THE WEASEL AND PINE

Introspection

Weasels can be warriors or spies, moving quickly and often alone.

They make observations from afar and adjust their plans accordingly.  

Remember that solitary creatures are nothing to fear, and an introverted nature is nothing to feel ashamed of; knowing oneself and being comfortable alone are desirable skills.  

Like the weasel, the pine tree works to be self-sufficient.  

One of the fastest growing evergreens, its prickly needles have a waxy coating that helps them retain water, thus ensuring their well being.

You are called to a time of solitude.

The lights are sparkly and there is much to do, but it’s time to take a place that allows for contemplation, reflection and re-evaluation.  

Taking that time and going inwards all leads to a deeper self-knowledge which cant be found in distraction.  

If  you are willing, ask yourself these questions:

When do I like to be alone?

How can I better understand and respect myself?

How do I feel about being alone?

Sending you massive hugs and squeezes.  Allow the warm dark to wrap around you and embrace you like a lover.  Allow yourself to rest, be quiet and most importantly – nurture yourself.  See you next week.  

Taurus New Moon, May Energy and Mothers Day!

Jenny Heston · 4:14 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Misty, Mischievous, Magnetic, Manifesting May Monday!

How are you delicious lovely?  How was your Beltane experience?

I made a lovely offering to the Fae of crystals, sunflower seeds, red wine and shiny coins.  I noticed a good chunk of the red wine was gone the next morning.  

So either there were some tippled faeries flying around or a tipsy racoon!

Okay my darlings, we have lots to natter about this week.  We have the New Moon in Taurus, a big shift in May energy and of course Mothers Day all coming up this week.  

So grab a cuppa and get settled.

First off, thank you for all your lovely shares about the Beltane gift – over 300 of you downloaded it and shared your experiences! Love it!

But before we kick off everything; for those who have asked about Flourish – there are only a few spots left. 

The doors close on Mothers Day and we start the following week.  

So if you have been sitting on the fence and umming and ahhing, to be blunt – it’s time to piss or get off the pot!  Lol.  

Remember, we are in the Year of the Wood Dragon and an 8 year – 8 is the number that takes everything and amplifies it!

It’s the year to really step into your power, your strength and there will be lots of lessons about having the courage to be yourself and to think outside the box.

If you have been a people pleaser, wowzer, there are going to be lots of lessons around this to help you finally release this pattern. 

So this is where the invitation for you is to really tune in, own your worth, get comfortable with uncomfortable emotions, and be a very active participant in creating your life (not a stand on the side victim).

Okay, let’s have a look at this week.

On Tuesday the 7th we have the Taurus New Moon in our skies.

“After the transformative waves of Eclipse Season, the Taurus New Moon on May 7th, anchors us into a place of nourishing stability.

We may feel the rising importance to slow down, ground our energy, and make time for stillness. Much may have changed and much may be in flux, but the welcoming energies of the New Moon guide us to rest, recharge, and find our centre.”

How can we create a cycle of nourishment in our own lives? 

How can we bring balance to the flow of giving and receiving?

Creating this harmony really begins with us and our inner state of being.

Next up we have the May energy shift into one of “MENTAL CLARITY AND INSPIRATION”.

Let’s let the amazing Lena share her wisdom on this theme.  

We have just been through an energetic and emotional centrifuge and this month we get to sort out what is left and more importantly what we value and what is important to us. 

There may have been losses, changes, disappointments, new opportunities, sudden reversals, shocking news, situations better than expected and situations more challenging than planned for. 

It has been a lot, our plates are full, and now we need to take the time to reflect, review, reassess, and reset, with the goal being some mental clarity and new inspiration about our purpose and next steps.

It is a time of observing self and others with patience and receptivity. What are you manifesting? If it is more of the same as in the past that you intended to change, then you still have work to do.

The greatest obstacle this month is fear. We have a collective fear of the unknown, fear of being victimised, losing our freedom, abandoned, restricted, and at the deepest level annihilated. 

This fear can quickly eliminate any inspiration for what is possible in the unknown of the future. 

The antidote for fear is trust and connecting to the larger picture of evolution, the magnificent structure and organisation of the universe and the grounding and nurturing aspect of the earth. 

Are you seeing how all the energies meld like a glorious pot of soup?

Hence why the doors to FLOURISH opened at this time!  (and no, you can’t make this shit up.)

Sunday the 12th brings in Mothers Day.

For me personally, it’s irrelevant if you have birthed children or not.  As we have all at some point in time nurtured, mentored, supported a child – whether they were ours or not.

I will be honest, I have learned so much from my five children – they have taught me amazing lessons, given me a lot of angst, and helped me to grow up.

I also realise that Mother’s Day can be challenging for some as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, grief, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more. 

It reminded me of years ago when I was in a lovely Kundalini yoga class and my most amazing mentor invited us to bring in our Mother, to feel that energy of safety, unconditional love and peace.  

Well, I have to say that was not what happened for me by any stretch, instead it brought up loss, abandonment, grief and some very dark emotions which had me sobbing the whole way through class!  (Gotta love how energy moves).  

Afterwards I went up and shared with her my experience and she could really hear how that didn’t feel safe inviting that person in.  So instead she invited me to bring in someone who represented that mothering energy instead – so the next time I happily brought in my Great Aunt, another Aunt and a lovely older female friend.  

Which in turn created a totally different experience!

So remember:-

“Let everything that needs to go, go.  Let everything that needs to come, come. “

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

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?

Shall we go have a look?

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell.  This is very special.  A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place.  Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen.  You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers.  You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart.  Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.  

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

SHAMAN OF SKULLS

In your heart, you have been asking for something different, something more, and the Universe is answering your prayers.  You don’t need to be afraid of the changes happening, or that are going to happen, for you.  They are part of that answer from the Universe!  You might feel uncertain because you cannot see how it is going to all work out – but know that the Universe is caring for you, and will provide a way to move through the transition with grace.  

You are not crazy to willingly enter this experience.  There is nothing that you need avoid, and so much that you will gain.  

Something is ending.  Something that has meant a lot to you.  Maybe it is a relationship, a phase of your life, and identity that no longer suits you.  Maybe it is an inner ending that you can’t quite articulate, but you feel nonetheless.  This is a symbolic death with a greater purpose.  

The shaman is spiritually trained to overcome the fear of symbolic death and, instead of avoiding endings, to willingly go through them with the awareness that an ending is simply the other side of a beginning.  The shaman learns that endings happen when something new wishes to be born.  

Be patient with yourself, be kind, but also know that new life is happening for you now according to a higher purpose and loving plan.  Your life is meant to change at this time.  Be encouraged!  From the ashes of this symbolic death, you shall rise again.  

FINCH SPIRIT GUIDE

Finch Spirit Guide comes to you with guidance to care for yourself in a particular way. Finches can become beautifully coloured, but only when they eat foods that nourish them. They have the power of beauty within, but they need the correct nourishment to be able to transform that potential into expression.

You also have beautiful divine potential to shine your light and beauty in the world, but you must feed your soul what it needs to do this. Be respectful and loving to yourself as you choose what to take into your being – be it physical nourishment or emotional energy or even the kinds of books you read and entertainment you watch, for all has an impact on you.

Do you feel better for the experience? Does it nourish your soul?

The best growth-enhancing food for your soul is that which increases love. Finch Spirit Guide also brings a prediction of a celebration of happiness ahead of you – and wants you to know that your connection to the spiritual worlds is real, to trust in the messages you feel from the Universe as they make themselves known in your heart.

It’s a good time to experiment with how to best care for your mind, body and soul. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about finding what works best for you. You are in a phase of your life where giving back to yourself is important.

Perhaps you have been sharing a lot of yourself with others, have come through a challenging time or, in the near future, will be stepping up in a new way to share more creative energy and soul fire than ever before.

All that you need to know now is that it is the right time to take extra special care of you.

Woosah! Gorgeous guides for this week! Sending you massive hugs and squeezes, set your intentions under the Taurus New Moon, come join us in Flourish and ground yourself!

In this Mercury Retrograde energy, Don’t run the world through your body! It’s time to Flourish!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Mercuric, Magical, Mellow, Moody, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you most delicious, lovely?  How did the eclipse treat you?

Isn’t it just oh so much fun to have that intense of an eclipse whilst Mercury retrograde is running rampant?

Part of me has been hugely confused as if I’m coming or going to be honest!

Let alone feeling like I’m parenting an acting out teenager when it comes to Mercury Retrograde and technology, I mean seriously it has been a gong show to say the least.

As I mentioned in the last reading, there is a beautiful new project coming out, called Flourish. 

You were meant to have heard about it last week, but as I said I have an acting out teenage tech entity in the house, who decides to not do what they are asked and then goes and locks themselves in their room (whilst ignoring me).  Lol

So it will be coming out this week and thank you for your patience. (Assuming I can bribe the tech teen out of their room with cool snacks or money, lol).

I have to admit, I am super excited, as the pivot in March, all the downloads and the eclipse – wowzer, they have mapped out my work for the whole year and it is frigging delicious.

Oh yes, and if you received a random email from me on Thursday about The Omen Days that you couldn’t read, no clue why.  My tech teen decided that was a good plan, so please ignore it!  

Okay, one of the themes that I have been hearing from a lot of you is overwhelm, the desire to hide, there’s grief, confusion, family dramas, the feeling of taking one step forward and three steps back, people pleasing , fatigue, the desire to shift things, boundaries and so much more.

All of which I can totally understand and appreciate.  

As let’s be honest, the energies have been and will continue to be rather challenging.  

But let me say to you – that if you are here at this moment in time, you are meant to be here.  You are needed.  

That being said, it doesn’t make it easier, as being a spiritual being having a human experience can be rather challenging!  And with overwhelm can come the sense of disconnect, fragility, fight/flight, freeze, or fawn.  

The key thing to remember is that YOU DON’T HAVE TO RUN THE WORLD THROUGH YOUR SYSTEM!

“It’s not helpful to run the energy of the world through your system.  It’s not helpful to attempt to carry the weight of the world on your back alone.  It’s not helpful to let the problems of the world overwhelm you.” ~ Rebecca Campbell

Aligned, Healthy, Action isn’t possible from a place of overwhelm.  

But how to deal with those feelings of overwhelm?

Start where you are.  Carry what’s in front of you.  Be responsible for what’s yours.  Do what you can.  Stay grounded.  Transmute what you can.  

Great Jenny, but how??????

Feel your feelings, so if you are angry look at what is triggering you.  Sit with it, feel it and acknowledge, “Okay, what am I feeling? What is moving through me?” So first of all, feel your feelings and give yourself space to feel your feelings.  

Then move and transmute them.  This can be dancing, putting on a song that you really like and letting your body move with the feelings inside you. It can be going for a walk, getting out in nature, doing some exercise, creating something.  Talking to a professional.

Do what fits you and that allows the feelings and energy to move through you and out.

Then ground yourself.  Take time to bring all the parts of you back to yourself, see yourself anchored to the earth with a strong cord or golden light and a cord coming from your crown up to the Universe.   Reclaim yourself, reclaim your power.

Tend to your Nervous system.  With everything that has happened over the last few years, many of us have hypersensitive nervous systems now and so learning ways to regulate it, to calm (takes us out of overwhelm, flight, fight, freeze or fawn), is vital.

I do this a lot with clients and circles that I hold, as well as all the groups.  

As this is a reading I can’t go into length or we would be here for ages, so let me give you 3 quick and easy ways.  Breath work.  Breathe out for 5, hold for 5, breathe in for 5, hold for 5.  Repeat 5 times.  (You can do this in a grocery store).  

Hum.  (yes, I said hum or sing).  As we hum it creates a different vibration in the body, as we sing the same thing happens and we take in more oxygen.

Cold water face plunge.  Big bowl of cold water, hold your breath, plunge your face in and blow bubbles galore – repeat 3 times.  

Then from that place of groundedness (yes that is a word), and calmness take grounded action.  What actions can you take (and they don’t have to be huge) to make yourself feel better?  Is it learning to say No?  Drinking more water?  Getting more rest?  Whatever it is that will help and support you.  

Small daily grounded action transmutes the energy of overwhelm into an energy that serves and nourishes you.  And remember that maybe your grounded action is to Rest.

Okay, I have chuntered on long enough.  Let’s crack on with the reading.  

When I asked the cards who wanted to talk and guide this week I was delighted to see that it was the delicious Spirit of the Animals.  So in case you may have never met them, let me introduce you.  “Animal Medicine, Animal Totems, and Animal Mascots have had cultural significance throughout our history.  Europeans adopted animals as tribal symbols that were later incorporated into crests for nations.  China has an animal associated with every birthday.  The Romans celebrated the eagle as the symbol for the empire.  Our ancestors observed the appearance of animals as omens and signs.  Shamans and mystics rely on spirit animal helpers.  Native Americans have vision quests to discover their personal animal totem.  School sports teams choose animal mascots.  It is no wonder that the interest in animals as emblems and how they relate to us still persists.  Animals as symbols live in our deepest memory.”

Okay delicious lovely, take a gorgeous deep breath and allow your shoulders to drop and your jaw to gently relax.  I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a place of stillness, a place filled with ease and flow, a place where you feel connected to earth and source.  From the place pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

If you need a bit more support there’s a wee guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

PENGUIN – AUTHENTIC

Penguin is the bird that cannot fly but instead swims.  They can see better underwater than on land, symbolising better access to the subconscious mind than usual.  

Penguins are full of surprises just like the people they represent.  The males and females experience role reversals.  Male penguins will sit on the eggs for months while their female counterparts hunt for food.  

Penguin urges you to adapt to extreme circumstances, break free from expectations and reinvent yourself.  Penguin says adapt, change, find your tribe, sing and celebrate your uniqueness.

Penguin people often feel awkward or out of place.  Tapping into Penguin energy can help you embrace your differences.  Self – acceptance is a big part of Penguin medicine.  They remind us that there is no right way to be!

Like all diving birds, Penguin relates to the truth that lies below the surface.  Maybe Penguin is telling you to go below, find your deeper truth and your most authentic self.  

These are things in life that really matter.  Finding like minded people (your tribe) will help you see your beauty as you see theirs.  

The wisdom of Penguin asks you to just be the unique and colourful person that you are!

Break free from others’ expectations.

Love your uniqueness.  Just be Yourself!

RAVEN – SHAMAN

If you have been a lover or ravens, collect their feathers, embrace their images, read their myths, observe them in nature and love black, then Raven is your totem.  

It is said when magic is near, Ravens appear.  Ravens are messengers from another world.  They bring us secret knowledge about magic and divination.  Ravens are the winged spirit advisors from our powerful subconscious.  Raven people conspire with the energies of the universe to help them create their dreams.  They experience continual learning and enlightenment.  Raven people do not fear the darkness.  The vast unknown is their storehouse of cosmic forces.  Others can be drawn to Raven people but also be fearful of what they know.

If Raven is your totem you are creative and love playful interaction.  You cultivate the natural philosopher within yourself.  You have access to the subconscious mind and this incredible knowledge is yours to retrieve.  If Raven is your totem, learn to meditate and reach deep within yourself to your own reservoir of wisdom.  Go into the dark and bring back the light.  Raven can fly you there and introduce you to riches of wisdom beyond your wildest imagination.

You are the creator and magician.

Use your gifts for good.

There is power in your wisdom and words.

Connect with the elemental spirits 

And glide through the void.

Claim your place as Keeper of the Mysteries.

RAM – PERSEVERANCE

The majestic bighorn sheep, or ram, is a master of agility and bravery.  They navigate rugged terrain at incredible speeds and land with confidence on the narrowest ledge.  

They have sharp vision and an acute sense of smell.  All of these traits help the bighorn sheep survive.  The male ram has a unique set of horns that spiral out from their head.  They never drop and they grow throughout the bighorn’s life, symbolising his fine mind.  It is a gift Ram people share with their totem.  Horns are an extension of the skull and have been called a natural antenna for intuition.  The ram is a competitive lover.  Be on guard for aggressive tendencies in your love life.  Jealousy should most certainly be avoided.

If Ram has chosen you, you have success on your side.  Ram urges you to use your fine mind to your advantage.  You will persevere and go to great heights to succeed.  Your reserves of strength and courage combined with your intuition will help you navigate the toughest circumstances.

Call upon Ram to make you brave in the face of risk and get ready to take a leap of faith.  Your many talents will help you land with sure success.

You have many gifts.

No problem can withstand

The power of your mind.

With patience you can reach your mountaintop.

Never give up and good luck will follow.  

Wow, what glorious guides for this week.  Wishing you a week filled with grounded soul fed action, rest, and clarity.   Talk to you later this week.  Big hugs and squeezes.

A wee message to patriarchy, with love from Scotla A wee message to patriarchy, with love from Scotland. 🖕😂

We’re done with power over people, power over women, power over the planet. We’re here for matriarchal ways rooted in care, respect, shared power and community. And we’re a wee bit tired of being told how to behave, how to look and how to be women in this world!! So here’s our sisterly response… with love, laughter and a little Scottish sass! 😉

A wee note: We’re a group of Canadian sisters and one beautiful U.S. sister exploring Scotland together. Some of us have Scottish roots, and all of us brought a little wyld spirit! ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The trees are loosening their grip, Gorgeous Soul. The trees are loosening their grip, Gorgeous Soul. What are you ready to release? 🍂

Sitting in a glorious pile of leaves, I pulled October’s card: Unfurl the Wings of Forgiveness.

Accountability and compassion. The courage to own your part, the tenderness to forgive yourself, and boundaries that honour both.

There’s autumn magick in this invitation—and a little delicious mischief, too.

It’s easy to think of yourself as a good man. The It’s easy to think of yourself as a good man. The harder question is: who are you when it’s just you and the boys?

When the joke crosses the line.
When the group chat turns ugly.
When a woman is being degraded.
When you know something is wrong.

Do you speak up, even if it costs you your place in the group?

Because women cannot be in every room asking men to respect us.

Men have to demand it from each other.

So I’m asking men: when was the last time you called out another man?

Don’t just teach your sons not to hurt women. Teach them not to stand silently beside men who do.
Summer is letting go. 🍂 Can you feel it? The lig Summer is letting go. 🍂

Can you feel it?

The light has changed. The evenings are arriving earlier. Leaves are turning, birds are gathering and Nature is beginning that slow, delicious turn inward.

Then on September 26th comes the Harvest Full Moon. 🌕

And maybe she’s not asking:

What’s next?

Maybe she’s asking:

What is already ripe?

What has quietly grown in you this season?

What are you ready to gather?

And what might you finally be ready to let fall?

I’ve written a new Harvest Moon piece through my Seasonal Lens, with journal prompts and one of my favourite slightly ridiculous rituals.

It involves bubbles.

Of course it bloody does. 😂🫧

For one delicious moment, we stand at the threshold between seasons.

Before rushing into autumn, what if you stopped long enough to look back?

At the summer you actually lived.
At what surprised you.
What challenged you.
What delighted you.
What quietly grew while you were busy doing other things.

You don’t need a perfect harvest.

You only need to recognise what is already in your hands.

That’s the question sitting at the heart of Mabon: The Gathering.

Not what did you accomplish?

Not did summer go according to plan?

But what grew?

A boundary?
A truth?
Some courage?
A delicious bit of weirdness?
Maybe something you didn’t even realise was a harvest until now.

I created a 24-page Mabon journey filled with reflection, journalling, ritual, harvest magick and a five-card Tarot/Oracle spread.

Because before we charge into the next season…

perhaps we should notice who arrived here. 🍎

Today is exactly one week before my birthday, I to Today is exactly one week before my birthday, I took a leap and received a “channelled” tattoo.

Was I sceptical? Abso-frigging-lutely. I wouldn’t even see the design until two hours before my appointment.

Then the image arrived—and I fell completely in love.

An apple, lavender, chamomile, rosemary, hare’s-foot fern and glorious Amanita mushrooms, all woven together beneath the stars and the sweep of the Milky Way.

Every piece holds meaning. Together, they form a tiny wild universe—a botanical talisman of nature, healing, memory, resilience, cosmic wonder and a wee bit of Fae mischief.

And now it rests above my heart, exactly where it belongs.

@inkspired_.tattoo.studio , you are an extraordinary human. This was so much more than a tattoo—it was a soulful, intentional experience and the perfect birthday gift.

A little wild.
A little witchy.
A little cosmic.
A little Fae.
And entirely me. 🍎🌿🍄✨
