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

· ·

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!

· ·

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!

· ·

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.  

Aries Eclipse, Libra, Chiron, Mercury Retrograde, to name a few! CAN YOU SAY KAPOW!!!!!

· ·

We aren’t going to bother with the Happy M, M, M, M, M day today, lol!

Why?  ( to be honest I want to be outside watching the pieces of the eclipse I can see from the west coast!)  Hence why you are receiving this earlier in the day!

So grab a cuppa as this is a long, information packed post!

Today is the Aries solar eclipse, combined with the Wood Dragon, Mercury retrograde and a number 8 year, 

Can you say KAPOW!!!!

Let me ask (as I didn’t do a reading last week as I played), how are you feeling with this eclipse portal and Mercury retrograde?

Some of you have shared that the energy has amplified and been challenging, others have shared that they have felt motivated, and for some – no impact.

So let’s dive into this Eclipse portal energy, as most of my astrologer friends are saying that it is the most powerful they have seen in over 20 years.  

And then we will give the back piece of this year energy, and the Dragon energy (just for shits and giggles, or more a case of as humans we forget.)

Okay, so this eclipse portal is all about purifying, detoxing, and adding supreme extra juice to the new seeds we are planting.  

But be clear, these are seeds that are aligned with your truest self.

What do you want to do in a meaningful way in this life?

The first eclipse on March 25th, in Libra, was hitting the South Node, which is all about dropping the karmic baggage, think of it like a shedding phase.  

This is the place of glorious Shadow territory ( a territory that a lot of us humans try to avoid like the plague), but it is the place of hidden potentials.  

When you are willing to do Shadow work and I mean deep work, you discover all the hidden potentials, the gifts and the wisdom that have been lurking there.

You discover your “Golden Shadow”, and the invitation with this eclipse energy is to really own it and nurture it.  

Think of it like digging the dirt so that your seed can FLOURISH!

Today we have the second eclipse in Aries, and just to be clear – we started working with  the Libra/Aries axis energy last July and it will go on until January 2025, so 18 months in total!!!!

Aries brings glorious Sacred Warrior energy to the table, inviting you to get super clear, deal with your Karmic bullshit and stand up against the grain!

What do you stand for?  

Because if you aren’t clear, the world around you will try to tell you and I’m pretty dang sure it won’t be in alignment with your truest self.

Not only do we have this eclipse in Aries, but Chiron conjunct this eclipse to the minute!

We will never see that again in our lifetimes (so yes, another big one).

Who is Chiron?

Chiron is the Wounded Healer and this is a time for some deep, deep healing and releasing of ancestral stories that aren’t yours (even though you may think they are).

It’s about allowing the wounds to surface and alchemise them.

Also, don’t forget that with Mercury retrograde it’s all about the RE words.

Revist, rethink, recreate, realign, readjust and more importantly with it happening in the middle of these eclipses – it will extend the eclipse energy.

Now do you see what is happening energetically? (So no, you haven’t been going crazy!)

So let’s talk about the container that  this is all happening in, think of it like a glorious sacred bowl made of the Wood Dragon energy and the 8 energy.

Remember what I said near the beginning of the year…..

2024 is 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).  

Throw in the energy of this being the Year of the Wood Dragon, and if you remember:-

Dragon is the only animal in the Chinese zodiac that is not of the mundane earthly world. It has the highest vision and broadest reach – they soar the highest and furthest. It’s a year to look beyond the confines and to dream big, to envision the future we want. Getting clarity on our purpose or mission is essential.

Authenticity is key and is of the highest vibration. We are asked to believe in ourselves, to remember who we are, to find our own authentic story and not anyone else’s. The exalted Dragon insists on raising the standards, set your goals high for it’s time to really step up.

“Wood energy allows us to grow, expand, and keep our vision on track for the long term. The Season of Spring is connected to the element of Wood, so this year of the Dragon will help us to create new beginnings, plant new seeds, and allow our garden to flourish.

The energy is ripe for new beginnings and undergoing new ventures, but we have to create stability and work from the heart.

The words that come up strongly are Heart based, Strength, Authenticity and Personal Power.

Great Jenn, so remind me, why are we doing a recap?

Because as humans we tend to forget very quickly and we don’t work with the energies and the power we have inside ourselves to create a glorious tapestry of change, growth, ease and something that allows us to Flourish!

Phew!  If you have read this far, you will have a comprehensive overview of what is happening on many levels.  

So what are some things that you can do to help yourself move with this energy?  

Look Mortality in the face.  (Yes, seriously)

You have 1 week, 1 month, 1 year – what is it you want to create, what do you want to do?

Drop the mundane, the excuses, the bullshit and the habits.

Write a list.

Write a list of what doesn’t light you up.

Write a list of what lights you up.

What is calling to your depths and your soul that you keep putting off?  Really sit with this and then…….let yourself be open to what comes up.

Sacred Warrior Practices

There are many practices I teach in the circles that I lead to help you tap into your own Divine Sacred Warrior.

The easiest one – do Warrior Pose (yes the Yoga pose).  But do it with intention and really allow your body to stretch and your soul to sing into the spaces.

Okay, enough chuntering. I have a glorious big announcement for you, but I will send it out on Wednesday as this has been a lot for you to take in.

So my darling one envision yourself as your own Sacred Warrior, holding that pose of strength, clarity and all for the highest good.  Allow that energy to swirl in on your breath and fill your cells, and as you breathe out, allow the “shoulds” to drop to the floor like dust.

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 gander, shall we?

RENEWING YOUR LIFE

“Radiant Vitality is filling my life!”

A powerful inner and outer renewal is occurring in your life. Purification is happening on many levels.

Take your life to the next level by clutter-clearing.

Release situations and people that don’t empower you, space-clear your environment, and eat lightly.  In order for renewal to occur, the old needs to make way for the new.

Sometimes it’s difficult for exciting experiences to come into your life if your auric field or your personal space is cluttered.

There’s simply no room for something new.

When you purify your life, you create the space for new opportunities to come flooding in.

If you have a sense that  your auric field, your living space, or your body have become cluttered or dingy, this is the time to do some inner and outer clearing.

Ask yourself:

Is there anything I need to purify or clear out of my life?

Is there anything that needs to be renewed or re-examined in my life?

How can purification help me become a clearer channel for myself and others?

LETTING GO

“I surrender joyously to the ebbing and flowing of life.”

Surrender. Relinquish control and allow Spirit to take over. You don’t need to do everything by yourself. 

All is well. It’s time to just let it all go and enjoy the ride! 

Doing so gives others permission to let go in their own lives.

There are times to hold on for dear life, and times to simply throw up your hands and let go.  It’s time to release any limiting patterns, emotional attachments, or inner and outer clutter.

Surrendering doesn’t mean that you’re yielding to a force outside of yourself.

It means that you’re allowing your soul to take over.  

Release the stress of needing to control things, wanting to determine th outcome of a situation, or expecting others to act in a particular way.

There is a simple grace and beauty that unfolds when you truly let go.

Loving spiritual help is all around you……. Simply open your heart and let it in.

Ask yourself:

Is there anything I need to release?

Is there a person or situation I need to let go of?

Is there anyone who needs to let go of me?

PLANTING SEEDS

“Seeds of grace are being planted in the fertile soil of my soul.”

The fertile soil of your soul is ready to receive the seeds that will come to harvest in the years ahead.

Get clear on what you desire for yourself and your future.  

Timing is vital, and now is your moment to plant spiritual seeds.

Every realised dream once started as an idea that took root.  

For your projects, ideas, and dreams to come to fruition, you need to first become clear on what your heart truly desires.  

Then ask yourself, Is this really what I want?

Believe that miracles can happen.  Use this time to plant seeds for your future.

Nurture these precious seeds to that they will grow as strong as the mighty oak.

Take action in the desired direction of your dreams, but be willing to pull the weeds along the way.

It won’t be long before you are reaping the bounty of your labour.

Ask yourself:

What has blocked my seeds from taking root in the past, and how can I overcome this?

How can I best prepare for my desired future?

What is being sown for my future that I may not be consciously aware of?

All I can say is wowzer, wowzer, wowzer!  Sending you glorious eclipse blessings, and if you are part of our amazing email community you will be the first to hear the announcement on Wednesday.  Huge hugs and love.

Spring Equinox, Libra Full Moon Eclipse and Change.

· ·

Happy Magnetic,Magickal, Marvellous, Musing, Merry, Musical, Magnificent, Manifesting March Monday!!!!!!!!

First off, thank you to all the amazing emails, comments and messages I received after the post about betrayal.  I so appreciated them all and the sharing that occurred.  Also, thank you for checking why there wasn’t a reading last week.

After the last reading, I had two amazing friends die suddenly.

And whilst I was reflecting on them, and prepping dinner – I managed to successfully slice through my nail bed and take the top of my thumb off.  Will say, it hurt like a bugger!  (Note to self, pay attention to the super sharp knife!)

Anyhow, I don’t know about you but the Spring Equinox and Eclipse energy are fully ramping up! 

Tuesday, March 19th is Spring Equinox, Ostara and it offers so much for you to tap into.

My dreams have been rather odd (cool, but odd) and my brain and body are making me really look at the seeds that I am intentionally planting, both figuratively and literally.

So what does Spring Equinox mean for you?

Ostara (Spring Equinox) is that delicious place of change.  

If you want to learn more, go deeper and explore this glorious energy there is the Ostara Magickal Guide (also known as OMG!).  

March has that energy of transition, caught between winter’s grasp and spring’s open arms.  

The Equinox brings the time when light is perfectly balanced with the darkness.  

This is a powerful time that represents seeds of intention, awakening, growth and rebirth. 

It’s the perfect time to do some reflection and align yourself with the habits that will allow you to truly flourish this season. 

So let me ask:- 

How will you support yourself during this transition?

How will you grow, glow & flourish this spring?

What types of balance are you creating in your life?

What are the seeds that you want to plant for yourself?

Remember, this is the time of Beginnings, Fresh Energy, Setting Intentions and planting them with love and care.

With the Spring Equinox your spirit is waking up with new ideas & new dreams for your life.

What are you going to plant?  

Equinox is a good time to consider balance in our lives, not only of happiness and sadness, but also of the areas in which we are active and passive, successful and falling short, giving and taking.

What are you receiving (and do you want to keep it)?

And what are you giving (and do you need to)?

“It is said that on the Equinox, the energy grid of the planet moves into higher harmony, allowing us to soak in the healing powers of Mother Nature with greater ease. 

With the energy grid of the planet alive and awakened, we can also replenish our own energy centres of the body and send our thoughts and intentions out into the Universe for creation.

Along with this powerful Equinox energy, we also celebrate the start of the astrological year on this day. This is because, in Western Astrology, the March Equinox coincides with the start of Aries Season, the first sign of the zodiac.”

And right after this glorious Equinox time where we consider balance we have a powerful Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Libra coming in on March 25th. 

This is the first eclipse of the year and the season.  

This is the perfect opportunity to assess, reflect and leave behind anything that is disturbing your balance or preventing you from achieving true harmony.

Yes?

Perfect, then let’s crack on with the reading.  If these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you to Blessed Be. 

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

Frigging perfect!

So take a moment to become present.  Right here, right now, right in this minute.  

As you breathe, allow your mind’s eye to show you the balance.  The balance between what you are giving and receiving.  Then when you are ready pick the card that calls to you.

If you want to go deep.  As a gift to you on this Spring Equinox time, a glorious guided Spring Equinox meditation/visualisation.

Did you remember to pick?

Then let’s go have a good gander shall we?

A BLESSING FROM YOUR ANCESTORS

A blessing to bring you the gifts and guardianship of your ancestral family.

Within your bloodline, and within your spiritual line, there are thousands of relatives who care for you, and whose cells now sing within your body.  You are their future dream, you carry forward the hopes of your distance and most ancient family.  

They have seen so much – yes, in other times and faraway places, but they come to you now and bless you with all the wisdom of their experiences, making you the sum total of a thousand thousand wise ones.

Call upon the wisdom of the blood, the old ones who stand behind you, supporting and holding you, clearly giving to you the knowledge that experience taught them.  

Let only the ancestors who can free you, aid you, support you, and celebrate the best of themselves within you come forward, and may the ailments and regrets of those who have gone before teach you what not to do in this time.

If the family be thin on the ground, or if there is estrangement at present, let the arms of the old ones hold you, form a circle about you, and infuse you with everything you may need at this moment.

You are loved across the distance of time.  

May you be blessed and may you have with you the essence of the Elder, the Teacher, the one who shows, the one who shares with the younger ones, the one who keeps the skills alive inside you, and all about you.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING ON A FRIENDSHIP

A blessing for a friendship where your best self is given permission to emerge and grow, and where mutual love is shared in good times and in bad.

May your friendship be blessed with laughter, but never at the expense of the dignity of one of you.  

May your friendship be a delight to you both, a time of warmth and sharing, give and take, small offerings of what you have sent back and forth between you.  May you be kind to each other, and honest too.  

May you have the trust that true friendship needs to speak of things for the soul, and may there be loyalty, one to the other, without chains or obedience, but freely given.  

May there be affinities of the spirit, differences to exalt in, and if harsh thoughts or words enter in and blight the path or your companionship, may you pick them up as a stone in the road, and move them out of your way.   

Let there be mutual care, and may your friendship endure amidst the inconsistencies of the world.  Let  your friendship have its seasons, but let it turn, on and on, ever – changing, ever-returning, to the place where you find love for each other, and greater love of self for knowing one another.  

BLESSED BE!

A BLESSING OF FORGIVENESS

A blessing to be able to be free of the burden of grudges and vengeance, a prayer to help you open up to the blessing that is forgiveness.  

Forgiveness is a tricky beast – and yes, for all it is a gentle word, it is a great beast, forgiveness.  For when we seek to forgive, we must wrestle with the wrongdoing that lies at the heart of our resistance to let go of the pain we are holding on to.  When we need to forgive, it is often that we are too raw, too far away from justice to be able to even touch the side of the balm of forgiveness.

Yet staying angry for long periods of time can develop into a compacted bitterness, and bitterness is a gall to all who wish to live freely.

But what can we do when the wrong is still very much alive, and to forgive another seems to be diminishing their harm, and their potential to harm others.

Justice and forgiveness must work hand in hand, and in this blessing they will now begin to entwine, so that while you begin to forgive first yourself, for whatever wrong was done to you, there is often an element of self-blame.

First, know that whatever wrong was done to you, it is not your fault.  And begin the work of forgiving yourself.  

May the blessing of this self-forgiveness be bestowed upon you now, dear friend.  Know you will gently untangle the doubt and recriminations that have settled like thorns about your heart, and invaded your mind’s peace.  And as begin to forgive yourself, you will also begin to find forgiveness for the injustices you have endured  

Let the anger burn down into coals from which you, phoenix-like, can arise.  

And know you have forgiven – forgiven the other for their dark gift.  Forgiven life.  And most of all, delivered the pure medicine of forgiveness to yourself.

BLESSED BE

Wowzer, those were glorious guides.  As quite frankly, if you aren’t willing to work with forgiveness you can’t create something different, something more supportive.    Equinox blessings and see you next week!  Remember to get your Ostara Magickal Guide!
