How Are Your Boundaries and Bandwidth on this Full Moon?

· ·

Happy Moon filled, Marvellous, Magnetic, Meritorious, Manifesting Monday!

Interestingly enough I wasn’t going to do a reading this week, but my guides (or posse as I call them were super frigging clear – they needed to talk, they needed to talk about bandwidth, boundaries, self worth and so much more – so here we are.)

But first let me say thank you for all the wishes, love and healing vibes – my ribs are slowly mending and I am feeling more like myself! Now here’s a question for you……

Let me ask, on this Gemini Beaver Full Moon, how is your bandwidth? 

This post may be triggering for some people and I can appreciate that and it may piss some people off and I can appreciate that.  Always remember, how you react is your choice.  

Now what do I mean by that word “bandwidth” exactly?

Bandwidth is the measurement of your emotional, mental, spiritual and physical energy that you have available for you.  

Here’s a really easy mathematical example to help you with this concept. (A concept I learned about 20 years ago when working with Caroline Myss). 

You wake up every morning and you have $100 worth of energy to spend in your day.  

As you stumble out of bed and into the shower, you run through your to-do list and your shoulders drop as there are some people you don’t want to interact with – but you need to.  There goes $25.00 of your energy.

As you make your coffee, you turn on the tv and the news is blaring.  Hundreds of people are dying in the war between Israel and Gazza.  Women and children are being killed, hospitals are being bombed – your mind immediately grabs onto that and starts trying to make sense.  And disappears down a rabbit hole, there goes another $40.00 of your energy budget.

As you move through your day and encounter people (who too have limited bandwidth) and are sharp, not listening, don’t even see you.  There goes another $35.00 of your energy budget.

So guess what?  You have just spent your energy budget on the past, the rabbit holes and trauma.  (Harsh I know). 

Now, if you are an empath without healthy boundaries you are going to absorb and not observe, and therefore your energy will get sucked dry at a rapid rate.  But I can 90% guarantee that you will still try to show up.

“If you’re feeling like you’re on your last nerve, like you can’t understand people, or why they’re not hearing you, or even why they are not following simple instructions…Instead, they are misinterpreting, forgetting, dumping on you, unable to hold you as a whole person, are not tracking you… whatever shortcoming it is you’re experiencing right now, please bear in mind that it’s really not personal: People just do not have it right now.”

They do not have capacity for whatever it is you need.

Do you need them to hear your actual words and not assign ill intent to them? They can’t do that right now. 

Do you need them to speak to you using different words, tone, or inflection? They can’t do that. They do not have it in them right now.

Look around at the world. Read the room. 

They are beyond capacity. They are running on fumes. (As are you some days.)

They do not have the ability to bring their whole best self to an interaction right now. They are a trauma response waiting to happen.

This is where self attachment (knowing who you are, what you need, your values and having healthy boundaries is vital!)

This is where practising self care techniques, havening, vagus nerve soothing, and taking supplements is important.  

This is where you need to be really connected to your self-worth and your values right now. 

If I were to ask you what your top 3 core values are right now, would you know?  Could you describe them in depth?  Do they wend through all areas of your life?

You have to have a clear line on your moral compass. You have to know what’s the most important thing to you. And do it!  

As that old saying goes “If you don’t fill your own well, there is nothing.”

Give yourself a fucking break!  Invite Grace into your day.  

Tie that into the Gemini/Beaver Full Moon energy and wowzer.  

“We have almost reached the end of the calendar year and under the November Full Moon, we may begin feeling that it’s time to release and let go of any heaviness 2023 has brought our way.

While we still have one more Full Moon to go in December, the Gemini Full Moon on November 27, guides us to begin thinking about what we wish to cleanse and what we wish to purge.

What do we no longer want to carry in 2024? What has become too heavy and too burdensome? What has been taking up far too much of our resources?

It’s time to start thinking about letting the heavy things go. It’s time to start clearing our plates so we can move through 2024 with more alignment, grace, and ease.

Use this November Full Moon to start assessing what is too heavy to hold and what you wish to be free of come the new year. Set your intentions and put them out to the Universe under the Full Moon. Allow them to be carried by the powerful cleansing energies that the Full Moon brings.”

So please darling one, if you take away anything from this writing.  Bandwidth, boundaries and releasing the yes’s that should be no’s.  

And for those who are interested, there will be a powerful MasterMind Circle for a select few starting in the New Year where  you will learn energy management, boundaries, values, self mastery, collapsing old mirrors and so much more.  If you are interested in hearing more make sure you are on the email list.  

Okay, with all that being said let’s crack on with the reading.  

If you have never met these guides, let me introduce you.  

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

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

Perfect guides for this time!  

So darling one, just BE for a moment.  Allow your breathing to slow down, the todo list to drop to the floor and imagine filling your own well with magnitude, light, love and ease.  Breathe that in and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.  

For those who would like to go a bit deeper into the energy of Magnitude, or feel they need a wee bit of help with filling their tank.  I have a glorious guided visualisation for you.  

Did you pick?

Let’s have a gander, shall we?

MOON SECRETS

Cycles

Life is all about cycles.  Creation depends on cycles.  The cycles that create life on Earth are meshed with those that create and run the Universe.

We are all aware of the moon’s cycles and the effects that they have upon life on Earth.  

From our ties to our reproductive cycles, the moon has a great influence upon our lives.  

For certain, the Universe also has many other cycles that influence us.  Everything in existence is cyclic in one form or another or it could not exist.  Cycles bring order to the Universe and to our lives.

There is a season for everything.  Everything must happen in its own time.

A cycle forms a circle, which symbolises continuance of cosmic energy flow.  The energy that animates each of us is never ending.  It was in the beginning and will ever be.  It can change forms but it cannot be destroyed. 

Learn to know the cycles that affect you.  Sense them.  Pay attention and notice all the cycles around you in your life.

The seed that sprouts and grows has a cycle.  Day and night are cyclic.  You breathe in and you breathe out.  

What all these cycles tell you is that there is order in the Universe and there is order in your life.

You just have to acknowledge the order and flow with it.  Don’t fight it.

Know that when you relax into life, things begin to work more smoothly as you are no longer fighting against the universal energy patterns, but moving within them.  

“Goddess Moon……

Who reflects the cycles of the Universal force,

Help me to remember

All things have their perfect time of being,

As well as their perfect time of ceasing in this realm.

The great wheel of existence turns continually.

Help me to remember 

I am a party of the wheel and of all that is.

I am!

So be it!”

Celebrate life’s cycles today!

GIFT REVEALED

Surprise

Faeries love good surprises.  

However, when they are faced with a  surprise that isn’t quite what they asked for, they pout.  Pouring soon turns to a smile and laughter as they realise that everything comes with its own gift.  

They always look until they find the gift.  

If life gives you something that you aren’t completely thrilled with, keep an open mind.  Often the best things come disguised.  Look below the surface and see what a person or situation holds for you.  Do not be quick to judge new people.  Not everything is revealed on the spot.  

Connect with the person and work to understand where they are coming from.  Their experience is different from yours.  So take the time to see what makes them tick and what they have to offer.  They are just as important as you are.

Do the same with situations….understand that what appears to be the case may not be the truth at all.  

Remember that solutions can come in the strangest of ways when you allow them to do so.  

Always ask that Spirit create the perfect situation for you.  Find the gift in all things.

“Oh Spirit of the night,

That hides the light of day,

I call upon your wisdom to help me on my way.

To look below the surface and see what lies within.

I cast about some fairy dust to sprinkle at my whim.

I judge not that what I see, but look and let it be.

For I do  know within my grasp a gift is there for me.

So be it!”

Surprise someone today!

WATER ELEMENT

Flow

Water is the elixir of life on Earth.  

It is also a symbol for the astral fluid (or Universal Energy) that permeates all things.   Water deserves our respect and gratitude since without it there is no life.  

Water element is also associated with the divine feminine.  It is about love, fertility, emotion and is also associated with the subconscious mind.

Water has no fixed state, it is in a constant state of flux.  How does water show up in your life?

Do you squander it?  Are you aware of it?  How are your emotions?  Are they tumultuous or on an even keel?

It is totally natural for emotions to fluctuate, but if they are peaking and troughing, ask this glorious Water Element Fairy to help you keep them in balance.

This water fairy dances in the flow of the energy around her.  She is joyous and buoyant as she moves with the current.  She does not fight it, she moves with the flow.  She knows that this fluid energy will take her where she needs to be and bring to her what she needs and desires.  

As water is associated with the subconscious mind, you may also be looking at a need to follow your subconscious.  This can be done in dream work, as there are many messages if  you just take the time to focus on them.  

Pay attention to your intuition as it works to guide your daily life.  Ask the element of water to purify your emotions and your intentions.  

Ask it to help you see clearly, as in a calm pool of water, what you need to know about yourself on a deeper level.  You might be pleasantly surprised by what you discover about yourself.  

“I honour the fluidity of life.

I dance in the spirit of water.

I drink in its substance, deeply.

I am thus sustained!

So be it!”

Be buoyant today!

What a gloriously lovely reading! I’m so glad my spiritual posse badgered me to share what they wanted to say. So darling one, I wish for you a week of practicing healthy boundaries. Self attachment. Anything that nourishes you and fills your well. Sending big hugs and squeezes.

Ritual, Beaver Full Moon in Gemini and American Thanksgiving!

· ·

Hello delicious lovely, happy Magnificent, Marvelous, Magical, Mighty, Manifesting, Majestic, Mindful, Mesmerising Monday!

(Have to say, I love the letter M lol).  Did you know that in Egyptian writing, its ideogram is derived from the character for water, which explains why it’s so gracefully written. In terms of Roman numerals, it represents the number 1000.  I really quite like the idea of the Egyptian ideogram and the letter “M”.   

I don’t know about you but for me this last week has been an interesting weave of ups and downs and really having to manage my energy carefully as I did something rather daft last week and ended up with 3 displaced fractured ribs and internal bleeding!  (Not what I had planned by any stretch!)

So Remembrance Day was spent in the hospital (again), where they were trying to decide if they would drill a hole in my chest and put a tube in. (No!)

Thus, I have had to do a full energy overhaul to ensure I didn’t go down the rabbit hole of fear and anger.  Let alone get sucked into the collective vortex of dismay – it’s been most interesting to say the least.  

However a gorgeous piece that has come out of it is – 

No, has become a complete sentence in my world.  Just No.  

So as American Thanksgiving is rolling in along with the build up to Xmas we will talk about energy management and how to keep yours and mine clear, clean and strong.

The other week a few people talked to me about ritual and what I found interesting was their thought that it was highly complex, time consuming and that you needed multiple “special” tools for it.  Hmmmm, I don’t agree with that.  Sure you can make it that way if you would like, and there are certainly times that you really want to make it super duper special, but for the day to day it doesn’t have to be that way.  So let me share with you how I view and interpret the word “Ritual” and what it means to me.  

To me a ritual is an intention made manifest, it’s that place of connection with the Divine, Universe, God/Goddess or however you chose to name it.  In other words, a ritual takes an idea, thought or emotion and gives it a physical form in the world.  So for example when I invite or suggest that perhaps at certain times there are things that you might want to write down, release and burn – guess what?  That’s a ritual.  When you sit down at New Moon and write your wishes/intentions out, guess what?  That’s a ritual.  All it took was a brief moment of time, paper, pen and something to light either a candle or the paper with.  

To me ritual allows your body, your cells, your essence to understand your intention.  Does that make sense?  So what makes a mundane activity into a ritual is your consciousness while doing it.  If you are smudging yourself or home, what is your intention?  If you are having a salt water scrub shower or bath, what is your intention? 

When you light a candle every day when you walk in the door, what is your intention? 

Remember energy follows intention and attention follows energy and actions follow attention. 

Thus, a ritual can be a celebration such as the upcoming Thanksgiving in the States or it can be a practice which can be repeated daily, monthly or yearly.  When ritual becomes a practice this allows us to go deeper, to explore all the various nuances and of course as we all know – repetition leads to mastery (think of that daily meditation, exercise, journaling etc).

To all my American friends, Thanksgiving is coming up this week and I hope you take time to just BE, Play, be Thankful and Feel.  For some people family holiday celebrations can trigger all sorts of stuff, some great and some rather challenging.  

So remember to take the energy of the Full Moon that happens at the same time and just get clear about how you want to feel and what is okay for you.  Energy Management!  

Okay, I do have to ask what’s with the Black Friday Sale thing?  I appreciate a good deal, but I went once to a store in the states on Black Friday and it was insane!  People were pushing, shoving, being rude all for $100 off of an item they wanted.  Totally terrified me and have never gone to a Black Friday sale in person again.  

With that being said I do wish you all a marvelous Thanksgiving filled with family, gorgeous food, connection, joy and big laughter and remember Gratitude!

The Full Moon is on Monday November 27th is in Gemini and called The Beaver Moon.  Now what is the energy of this wonderful moon? 

“The full moon in Gemini delivers the goods in terms of versatility. That’s because this lunation is ruled by none other than Mercury—the messenger of the gods himself.  This full Moon is all about action and change. Will you choose to remain stagnant in the cycles of your past or will you be consciously moving forward by enriching your spiritual blessings? As we move in step with the coming end of our calendar year, we choose enrichment of spiritual blessings or remain stagnant in our past.

Suddenly life is moving at an accelerated rate and be prepared to keep up with it during this full Moon until the next full Moon in December.  Be flexible and not so rigid with your thoughts or actions.

This full Moon is about leaving behind the noose of old habits, patterns and broken dreams.  Here is an appropriate quotation from President John Kennedy who passed 55 years ago November 22.  “For time and the world do not stand still. Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future.”  Think on this quotation.

What has been cannot be changed and it is time to let it go, while we lean forward to embrace all that lies ahead.

The lesson, energy and influences of this full Moon helps us to create a new legacy and to finally free ourselves from all obstacles, barriers and blocks that prevent our individual prophecy and birthright.”

Well that is certainly an interesting Full Moon to accompany Thanksgiving don’t you think.  

To help you deepen into this lovely Lunar Cycle there are some delicious journal prompts to help you delve a wee bit deeper.

The cards that wiggled and giggled to come support this week are The Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh and nearly snort tea out of my nose! 

Of course they would come, especially as we may be rubbing up against people that we love but sometimes find quite challenging to be around.  Now, if you have never worked with this deck before let me give you a brief introduction – “This deck is for those who find it hard to follow rules, conform, bend to authority and generally ‘do what they are told.’  May your rebel heart always be bold.  May your spirit always be free.  My you remember to live the Divine Circus and have fun doing things the way you aren’t supposed to, whilst living your most creative and unique divine destiny.”  The crystals that came to play are the ones from the beach, the gorgeous rocks that I pick up every morning and bring home to their beautiful bowl.  And of course some delightful rose petals and Selenite to amplify.    

Thus, I invite you to take a pause and a moment for yourself.  Just BE and as you breathe in a lovely deep breath resonant with giving Thanks/Gratitude and as you breathe out through your open mouth release the past, the old, the worry and tension.  Breathe like that for a few lovely, luscious breaths and when you are ready ask for the guidance that you need this week and then pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

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

CROWN OF THE BUTTERFLY BAMBINI

Just as nature imbues the butterfly with an innate ability for radical transformation, so too do you have natural instincts within, guiding you to grow in dramatic, utterly life-changing ways.  Progress is your perfection.  Growth is your attainment. 

Do you shun what you have been or mistakes you have made?  Or instead, do you wear your ability for transformation as a sacred crown of power?  

Transformation is an ability, an art, a sacred power.  It requires an ability to go through the death of an old self, to be reborn again. That death might be an identity, a lifestyle or career, or an inner sense of self that no longer seems enough to truly reflect who you are becoming. 

It requires both strength and flexibility, to be like bamboo, to bend without breaking. 

Are you willing to let go of what you have known, who you have been, without judging it, except to understand that you are outgrowing your past and becoming your future in this very moment? 

This takes great courage whilst flexibility of mind allows you to believe there are other possibilities in this life beyond what you have already experienced.  The strength gives you enough courage to bear the loss of the known and the terror of the unknown, perhaps even turning that terror into excitement for what may be.  

Don’t dream small dreams, for you are capable of far more dramatic and colourful creations.  Trust in the magnificence of what you are becoming, the expression of the transformational intelligence and power within you.

DATE WITH DESTINY

Out of the ethers and into your life, she arrives now because you have a date with Destiny.  She is a mysterious creature; her ways are wild and her guidance is true.  She may create chaos from which a new order can emerge, but there is no need to fear.  She has come to inspire, uplift and direct you.  

A date with Destiny is a big deal.  It is the moment when you realise there is something helping you out, something intelligent, powerful, wise and, no matter how empowered you are, something even more powerful than your own efforts.  All bets are off!  Nothing is held sacred and anything can happen. 

If you are a control freak, this will probably scare you witless! 

You need to trust Destiny’s interventions on your behalf, even if her work seems to be causing your best intentions to go astray.  Trust or go mad because you cannot control her.  And you do not need to!  Your divine destiny is your best life. 

It is you in the fullest and most beautiful creative expression possible.  It is what you want and need, even when you don’t immediately realise it, even when that is rather different to what you once thought you wanted and needed.  

The Universe has heard the prayers in your heart, and life is going to answer them by rearranging what needs to be rearranged to sort out whatever has been troubling you.  Make sure you let it happen. The more you allow yourself to trust in her, the more you will realise that the universe is working with you, rather than against you, and if you are willing, it will show you the time of your life!

DIVINE DISGUISE

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

Blessings are the mysterious workings of the universe, there to help us along our unique life path to live our truths and fulfil our potential.  The universe has the knack of knowing just what it is we need, even when sometimes we might think we need something altogether different.  This is how it can be that something we resist and reject in our lives can become the very thing we’re most grateful for later on.  We realise it had been a blessing masked, something actually helping us, even though it might have come in the form of a challenge or a struggle before we eventually gain great benefit from it.  

The real beauty of a situation isn’t obvious to you yet.  But trust and have peace of mind and a realisation that the universe does really know what it’s doing.  It’s in your corner, on your side, cheering you on and helping you avoid unnecessary pitfalls, even if you don’t know they exist.  There is no need to worry, even that which appears to be most troublesome is going to reveal itself to be working in your favour!

Well delicious lovely, wishing you a stupendous week and I have an invitation for you.  Think of the things that you do that nourish you, whether it is playing music, lighting a candle, going for a walk under the trees and give it the energy of a ritual.  In other words, set an intention, let the energy follow it make it a conscious action.  Also, no matter if you are in the States and celebrating Thanksgiving or live somewhere else, play with the energy of this wonderful Full Moon and give thanks and bless everything that is in your life. 

In my morning practice I always say “ I bless everything I have and I bless my increasing good and good fortune” and then I start listing them.  So I might say “I bless my bed and the cosiness of it and I bless my increasing good and good fortune, I bless the sun filtering through the autumn leaves and I bless my increasing good and good fortune.”  Yes?  Give it a try and really think of everyone and everything that could do with a blessing. 

At the full moon take some time to write down the things, or aspects, that you are ready to release, then burn the list and allow it to become compost.  Play with it and see how you feel.  Sending you big hugs and squeezes and sloppy wet kisses!  See you in two weeks and most importantly be grateful for yourself and bless YOU!

Super Lunar Eclipse in Taurus and Samhain is just over a week away!

· ·

Delicious, lovely!  Happy Magickal, Mysterious, Merry, Melodious, Magnificent, Magickal Manifesting Monday!  

Whoot, so much to talk about this week! 

But first I would like to say – I don’t know about you, but I’ve been loving the energy of this month!  

We had Friday the 13th (Goddess Day), a Solar Eclipse in Libra and now we are approaching a Lunar Eclipse in Taurus and Samhain (Halloween) is just round the corner!  I love it!

So yes there is a glorious Magickal Samhain Guidebook for you.  45 pages of all sorts of wonder, ritual, magick, lore and more!

This glorious guide helps you to go from feeling a little lost, unsteady, spiritually unsatisfied in your life to feeling deeply connected with nature & the Divine, and in tune with your Authentic Self – by creating a personal practice rooted in the seasons.

There is also going to be a lovely Samhain gathering on Sunday October 29th at 9am PST (more details to come this week as here we have had three birthdays this weekend and I have created two amazing wedding ceremonies!)

But back to the eclipses (as we are in the portal of them) – remember, eclipses always come in pairs – the New and Full Moon.

And yes, the time between eclipses is highly charged.  Emotions can feel raw, and anxiety runs high! Eclipses bring karmic endings and fateful new beginnings.  

Okay, we have lots to chat about so grab a cuppa – snuggle up and let’s rock and roll.

Let’s talk about this eclipse that occurs on October 28th (so this Saturday).  

Yes the moon is in Taurus but it is also called the Hunters Moon.  This is the time when the the spiritual bond between the human soul and the October Full Moon connects. 

It’s a celestial feast full of meaning, a ghostly dance of ritual, and represents the very core of astrology and spirituality.

Throughout the hallowed pages of history, the Hunters Moon has symbolised a time of harvest, abundance, the afterlife, spiritual transformation, and divination.  Remember last week we talked about what does it mean “The Veil is Thinning?”

Remember under a Full Moon eclipse this is massive release and soul connection energy, this is not the time to set intentions, or do rituals pertaining to manifesting.  

Hence why in Creatrix Circle we are having our Samhain Gathering the day after!

So let’s talk about Samhain, which happens on October 31st.  Duh!

This is a powerful, powerful, powerful time of year.  Aka The Witches New Year.  

This is when we celebrate All Hallows Eve and honour our ancestors who have paved the way before us.   You don’t have to identify as a Witch to celebrate Samhain, the time of deepening and releasing.  The time of calling in your ancestors, clearing and claiming the ancestral line.  

This time of year is when we have the opportunity to celebrate the cycle of death and rebirth as the veil between our world and the spiritual world is at its thinnest. 

Samhain is the season of Death. Right now, nature is teaching us the important role Death plays in the cycle of Life.

The natural world is dying. Things are being cleared away, making room for new life to take root.

And it’s reminding us of the critical role Death plays in our own personal growth journeys. You can’t evolve without letting things die away. Outdated beliefs, stories, habits; relationships that no longer serve you; jobs that crush your spirit – these things have to die away in order to keep evolving.

Samhain is the season to let things die. The energy is supporting you in this difficult work. Nature is showing how beautiful the process can be.

Okay, I’ve chuntered on enough, let’s crack on with the reading.  So when I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide and support this week I giggled when I saw it was The Oracle of Shadows and Light.  With the invitation to walk into the Full Moon Eclipse, they are positively perfect!

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them

Wisdom for Misfits, Mystics, Seekers, and Wanderers. 

Bittersweet…Unheard…Unconventional…Rebellious…Cheeky…Whimsical…Invisible.  They’re not the words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they?  

Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream.  They do not fit in.  They have had moments of despair.  And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all!  They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and to consult with an oracle that acknowledges your individuality and strange genius!  

How’s that for a warm welcome?

Ready?  Willing to just settle in for a few minutes?  It won’t take long, the invitation is to breathe and just BE for a few moments and with this amazing Full Moon energy swirling around you pick out something you are willing to release and reframe.  Got it?  When you are ready pick the card or cards that tug at your soul strings.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see who wants to share with you this week.

STRANGELY LONELY

Holding on way too tight.

This sweet and defiant being holds fast to her Celtic cross, clutching her belief system, because without it she is not sure who she truly is.  Perhaps it was given to her by a beloved, perhaps it represents her family, a loved one, or aspects of her soul.  

But the reason she holds on so tight is that she is lonely and has yet to connect with her soul family on a day to day basis.  

One dilemma with living in a world you feel you must protect is that you fear other people intruding on it, disturbing the delicate balance!  So, you hold on tighter to whatever you have, or whatever you feel makes you, you.

The truth is your inner world is richer than most, and it’s an imaginative paradise – or hell – depending on your state of mind.  

You are holding so tightly to something that it is proving to be a barrier between you and others – which is why you feel so alone at times.  At present, you may need to open up just a little, and admit that you crave like minded people around you.

This does not mean people who do the same things for a living as you – it means people who speak to your soul.

You’re craving metaphysical and mysterious discussions, and you’ve got some questions that truly need answers – or at least an exploration.

Please let go, just a little, and notice how this gives you room to interact and engage with loving others, and this therefore helps you re-create your world anew.  

It is likely you will choose carefully who you allow in – but at least one person does need to be let in and at least one “security blanket” needs to be shown the door.

Just for the moment.  

SEWER MERMAID

Your sensuality is beautiful!

You’re being reminded of the treasures you have that you may have labelled “bad” and perhaps even pushed away, forced underneath.  We often have negative thoughts – that we are too short, too tall, our thighs too large, our breasts too small, our hair not right, our face not pretty enough.  We speak to ourselves in negative ways, and we begin to feel we are not good enough.  

And when this takes place, the result can be that we begin to create negative experiences, blockages, and difficulties.  

We push away, rather than attract them.  We hide for fear that what others see will not be good enough. 

But this mermaid of the hidden spaces is here to show you that your dark thoughts have told you lies about your great beauty; you are your own self, and all that you are is perfect, whole, and complete.  

You may try to push her away and refuse to believe that you are beautiful.  But when you are ready, she will swim to you and free you from all the harmful, negative thoughts and experiences, all the “sewage”.  You will begin to believe that no matter what, you are a beautiful being, healthy, attractive, and one who deserves love, respect, and affection.

It’s time to believe in yourself – that you are attractive, beautiful, and worthy of love and respect.  She will show you how to see your body as a place of health, delight, and strength.  Let’s clean up your physical and mental acts.  Let’s love all aspects of the physical self.  

Let us not criticise and hate ourselves, no matter our size, shape, or differences.  We are all unique expressions of the Divine – and that truth most certainly applies to you.  Let us not be ashamed anymore.  

Let us celebrate who we are, and learn to love the differences, and be grateful for all that we have, are, and will be.  

It is time to clean up your act – not of your natural looks, but of the way you have thought about yourself!  Something beautiful has been treated badly.  It is now up to you to begin to reframe your ideas and thoughts and therefore your experiences of yourself, your body, your worth, your ability to attract others, and to see yourself as worthy of love, respect, and consideration.

You are beautiful and very worth loving.  This is the only truth that must be told at this time.  

WITCH AT THE END OF THE WORLD

An important end, a new beginning.  

Storms fly about her, electrical whips crack through the heavy air with their bites of fire, and she sits among them, hugging her hourglass, holding everything together till the force creating the change has done its work.  

When the Witch at the End of the World makes her appearance to you, you will know that something’s time has come.  There can be no more delaying, for the change has begun.  

So the best thing for you to do now is prepare for this change.  

Find solutions to challenges that will come up when the change comes.  You will be fine, by the way, and all will be well, but there will be a time of seeming chaos and difficulty.  

If you are prepared, and ready to let go and change, and let something end, the little witch’s countdown will not affect you as it will affect others who refuse to acknowledge that changes are coming and become fearful at their inevitable approach.  

There is nothing to fear, but plenty to prepare for.  You will be safe, and well, and very ready to embrace the new world.  

I am not wicked, but I am a witch, and changes are made when the world bends and shifts.  

I hold this hourglass up to  you now so you know that the time for an ending is almost upon us.  

You can see the signs all about you – the strange weather, the hurricanes, the cyclones, the earth changes all about us – but so many simply say I am wicked for showing you this.  They blame me for what they call the catastrophes, and they ignore the signs.  They are with you, and it is time to be ready.  

We are all about to experience a huge change – and it will be for the better.  But while we hold on to the old, the storms will blast us, and the land will shift, and self-healing will look like destruction.

There is nothing to be frightened of; only a voyage to weather, and you’ll make it through to the other side of the storm.  

The changes are part of our journey to a fifth-dimensional world, of the shift to a more peaceful planet, where shadows and light are loved and accepted.  All is well. 

Wowzer, what delicious guides for this eclipse week and the approaching Samhain!  I love it.

So delicious lovely, remember to grab your copy of the Samhain Guidebook, come join us for a Samhain gathering and be gentle with yourself in these crazy times and crazy energies.  Massive hugs and squeezes!

October is Here, The Energy has Changed, We Just Had a Full Moon in Aries and the Eclipse portal doth open!

· ·

Hello most gorgeous lovely – Happy Magickal, Miraculous, Moodling, Merry, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!  The first Monday of October!!

I don’t know about you but it felt as if September just went zipping by, I put that down to the fact that in my family we are in the birthday season.  Yes I did say season.  We had 5 birthdays to celebrate in September (including mine and thank you all for your lovely birthday wishes) and from now until Winter Solstice we have another 9 to celebrate!  

I had such a lovely weekend going away with the famdam to Salt Spring Island to celebrate birthdays and Equinox.  It was positively magickal!  Adventuring, exploring, crafting, laughing, frisbee playing and quiet moments of reflection.  

So snuggle up honey, grab a cuppa and let’s natter as we have lots to explore this week!  We have an energy shift, we just had a glorious Full Moon in Aries this past weekend and the Eclipse portal doth open!

With moving into October (one of my favorite months) as I love Samhain (Halloween), the veil thinning and the honoring of the ancestors, we have had a huge energy shift.  Many of you have written asking for tools and help as the energy is feeling quite off the wall and at times overwhelming.  Which I totally understand.  

In fact the other day I was very aware that the energy felt sharp and it was as if everything was very loud and too bright – so this is where self care tools and energetic tools come into play in a big way..

As Lena shares, The theme for October is: “Be Ruthless”.

Just to clarify, being ruthless does NOT mean using it as an excuse to be nasty, mean spirited, judgmental or rejecting of others.

Being Ruthless this month means being ruthless with yourself and resetting the habits of complaining and whining about your life into real action for improvement, evolution and change.

There is still an element of letting go of the dead weight as well as the opportunity to be open to receiving something new in its place.

This will not happen unless you get off the fence and actually do something to improve your life. Enough talk, enough planning, enough complaining. You deserve better and it is time to take advantage of the very potent energies we have this month with the 2 eclipses.

You have the opportunity to finally set yourself on a new track by changing the story and giving up the attachment to anything of the past including all disappointments, successes, identities, traumas, resentments, and any way you hold yourself or others hostage to unresolved issues.

So what can you put in place that will nourish you and support you this month?  What daily practice do you work with to clear your energy and the sharp bits?

On September 29th we had the glorious Full Moon in Aries, also known as The Harvest Moon.  

The Harvest Moon is focused on gratitude for what you have, where you are and an awareness that you need to start turning inward.

We now begin the dark half of the year; accept and welcome the darkness with open arms and spirit.

Take a moment to look back in history at your ancestors and the lessons they can teach you. Before industrialism, people focused on harvesting and preparing for the coming of Winter.

Failure to do so meant facing one’s own death or mortality.

You can feel the magical energy in the air right now as we head toward Samhain, and the veil grows thin. 

This increases your ability to communicate with your ancestors or loved ones. It’s an opportunity for spiritual growth, goal setting, gratitude, and finding ways to slow down and enjoy the season of Autumn.

It’s also a Healing Moon however, this isn’t healing that comes in a nice tidy package, this is the healing that comes when you hit the place of surrender.  Which is the perfect time to invite the wisdom, support and love of your ancestral team to come work with you, or to heal and release any ancestral wounds you may be packing around.  

Chiron, coupled with the Aries lunar energy, promises healing, not from trying to fix, control, or force, but from surrender. When we surrender, it gives rise to acceptance, to letting go, to forgiveness, and opens us to the possibilities that those states can create.

And I know for many people the word “surrender” is so tough to embrace, however, it is an incredibly powerful thing to do.  

So do you see how the energy of the month and the Full Moon energy are tying together?

Then later in the month we open up the second Eclipse Portal of the year.  This is a time of significant acceleration of the collective and individual evolutionary pace. That in turn will open new doors and bring fated changes in our lives.

However, we will explore that later this month, as with the Full Moon energy it’s time to do some clearing and healing and embrace the energy of this month so that when Eclipse time comes you are feeling open, accepting, and supported.

Yes?

Okay, if you have read this far, let’s crack on with the reading.  Lol.  

When I went to the glorious cards and asked who wanted to guide and support you this week I was delighted to see  The Oracle of the Shapeshifters.  As we are all shapeshifting in some shape or form right now.

If these glorious guides are new to you, let me please introduce them (as that is the polite thing to do)!  “These are the magickal familiars, once the companions of shamans, witches, wizards, and wise ones – and now they are here for you.  Now is the time for you to undertake a great quest – to rebirth yourself within this lifetime and this quest of evolution does not need to be faced alone.  

We change and we change again.  We fear change.  Yet it comes.  For us to fear change is as foolish as winter crying for the coming of spring.  Change is.  Fear corrupts.  

These guides are here to support, encourage and help you through transformation and to teach you to let go of fear.  True , deep change must take place for you to fulfill your soul contract.  

You may have turned from possibility to what you have convinced yourself is probable:  You diminish your possible self, reduce who you are, and dilute your spirit.  But even when you have sought to remain invisible and hidden away, and said  yes to everyone else, life will find you – and transform you.  You are never alone with these beings.”

Oh my giddy Aunt, the perfect guides for this week!  So there we have it, are you ready?

Okay my darling, take a moment to breathe yourself here.  Hold your hand up to your heart level with the palms facing up to the sky.  See golden light being poured into them from the Divine and entering your heart and flooding through every cell of your body.  

Stay here a moment and just breathe that in.  

Then when you are ready, ask your wise self, your divine self, what do you need to know this week to support you in working with the energies of this month.  Then pick the card or cards that resonate for you.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

ORCA MAGICK

Orcas are the brilliant, physical, living reservoirs of Earth and galactic history.  They are the carriers of wizards on their backs, according to Norse myth, meaning they carry the great sage lines of transformation and transmutation, and can pass this lore along.  They hold this history in the patterns of their ancient songs.  

One day we will translate the songs and understand our own past times.  Their bodies, those huge, resonating cavities, store the history of the planet herself.  They travel the world’s oceans, singing, clearing, and awakening the energy grid again and again, preserving, reviving, renewing ancestral lines that need to be in place for this planet to be whole and well, now and in the future.  

Earth is currently undergoing a vast initiation.  Some have called this an ascension, although what it truly is has nothing to do with high or low, but with an integration of more dimensions, fully awakening your DNA and charging your auric field to a more powerful capacity.  Healing, materialising into new forms, and creating will be greatly enhanced at this time.  

You are a keeper of galactic mysteries and you have a strong starperson connection.  Starpeople are connected to the growing need to connect to the galactic web, which we are a vital part of.  It is time to take yourself outside and gaze up into the night sky.  Learn about the constellations you can view from your home.  Tune in to the worlds beyond this world, and ask that they connect with you in healthful ways.  

Whales can assist with intergalactic travel (without physically leaving the planet), seal and repair any wounds or tears in your energy field, and return to you the parts of your soul that you may be unaware are even missing.  

A TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

A time to say goodbye will help you to let go, even though it hurts a lot.  This is now out of your hands; you have to say goodbye at this time.  Be active in this ending when this card comes to you. 

Be brave; think about how you can best take care of yourself at this time, and show the other person how much you care.  Don’t ignore or shun them.  Rather, let this person know what they have meant to you, wish them well on the next stage of their life journey, and let….them…go! 

There may be great sadness in doing so, but you will grow so much because you have chosen the better way to deal with this sad situation.  This other person has learned how to detach and stay detached.  He asks that you do not ask for him to return, to stay, or to cling. 

Be strong because you need to be dignified, and believe that something better is coming.  Because that is the truth.  Something better is coming.  So open your arms, and let him be free, as he has learned to be. 

You may be reluctant to see an ending – you may wish to extend the time you have with someone, or you may even feel like you are being cheated out of something you deserve.  But the truth is that things must die in order to be reborn in another form at a later time. 

This is the chosen time to go, and from the ashes, something new will arise, and it will be even better than you can imagine.  Rebirth cannot take place without a death – and it is now time to end something, to let something both externally and internally die.  It may be a long-held belief, a place that seemed to hold security, a friendship that has grown unhealthy, someone you’ve been going out with who no longer wishes to see you, or a beloved family member who may not be in this world much longer.  Whatever it is, let it – let them – go!  Something else will return to you.  And you cannot be reborn unless you first know how to die. 

This is your chance to learn something very profound, deep, and important.  Do not miss it by resisting what must take place.   

SNOW WHITE AND HER ANIMAL FRIENDS

You are loved and trusted.  Even the small ones of the forest gather with you after times of great unrest, when they feel they cannot find another trustworthy human to be with.  You have the energy of the gentle ones, and thus the small ones, the vulnerable ones like us, come to you – not to take, but to show you how trusted you are.

It is not a burden; it is a great honour.  Rarely do we show ourselves, but to you, we come and lay our heads in your lap.  There is such an air about you.  You are a safe, good person.

It is time for you to step up and protect others who are smaller and more fragile than  you.  This may be a reversal in roles for you, but the deer and the hare and the quiet, soft ones have chosen you because they trust that you can do this job.  

You may feel an unlikely hero, and you may experience a completely unforeseen victory.  But you can do it.  You must take great steps now to live up to this honour and trust.  It will be simple for you while you remain in the forest, but when you venture out into the world once again, will you make choices that support?

Make a commitment to protect .

Something you wished for will be given up, for now, so you can do something for the good of others.

But your energy will change as a result, and that will bring to you your deepest dreams and desires, purified and at the perfect time.  

Oh my Goddess, you seriously can not make this shit up!  Wishing you a glorious two weeks (as it is Thanksgiving here next weekend).  Practice surrendering, and remember to celebrate the Full Moon, Be Ruthless with yourself. Big hugs and squeezes and be kind to your glorious self.  

My Birthday, Equinox and a giftie for You!

· ·

Happy Marvellous, Metaphysical, Magical, Mysterious, Musical, Manifesting, Mabon, Monday!

How was your glorious Virgo New Moon?  Did you take time to breathe in that rich Earth Goddess energy and make some wishes/intentions?

I am so excited as Equinox is just around the corner! Here in the Northern Hemisphere we are celebrating Mabon, which is Fall.  In the Southern Hemisphere it is Ostara – Spring!  Two of my most favourite seasons!   

So grab a nice strong cuppa, snuggle up and let’s go explore  Mabon and My birthday gift to YOU! shall we?

In case you didn’t know Equinox or Mabon falls on September 22nd (my birthday!) and is a powerful time of abundance and celebrating the bounty you have. 

The Autumn Equinox is the 2nd of only 2 days through the year when the Earth is in perfect balance.  On the Equinox, day and night are equal.  But in autumn, the sun is waning and the days are now shorter than the night.  

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

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

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

Mabon is often referred to as “Witches Thanksgiving ” (no, it doesn’t mean you have to be a witch).  It means it’s the second harvest festival on the wheel of the year, a time to give thanks for the bounty in your life, to release the things that you may have outgrown and to be grateful and count your blessings!  Yes? 

 Counting our Blessings is a powerful practice and something I do every morning on the beach or in the woods!

Not only do we count our blessings, it’s also important to take time to reflect on our triumphs from the year and acknowledge what we’ve worked hard to grow and harvest.  We need to remember to feel proud of our accomplishments.  However, in order for new growth to occur in the spring, things must die in the autumn. 

Many of you have emailed and asked if there is going to be a Mabon Magickal Manual this year, HECK YES!  She is quite lovely and the perfect way to guide and support you into breathing in the essence of abundance, the change of season and awakening to all its meanings.  

As Equinox is my birthday, my gift to you is the most delicious Mabon Magickal Manual (fondly known as MMM), where you get to pick the price!    

(Yes, I did say that outloud). 

She has 46 pages of pure magick, myth, oracle spreads, rituals, practices, how to work with the glorious archetype of this season (and she is an amazing one) and so much more!  All to help you come into balance and harvest exactly what you need at this time!

Thus, she will be available from today until I come back from my birthday trip where I am going to  explore Salt Spring Island with all my kids and their partners.  My plans are to play, explore, dance, weave with the energies and  hike the fairy door trail (and maybe take one to leave there).

So with all the chuntering, let’s crack on.  As you allow your breathing to slow down a tad, and come back into your body.  I invite you to just BE and BREATHE, allowing everything else to just drop away for this moment.  Then when you are ready ask your wise inner where is the balance I need at this time of year? 

Then when you are ready – pick.

Let’s go see who wants to share with you this week.  

HUMMINGBIRD DREAMS

The Smallest

Even those who seem the least to us have their dreams.  The tiniest and the weakest have their place in the Universe just as we do.  They have a special job that only they can do, a place that only they can fill.  There is no one being that is more important or more worthy than another, regardless of the form in which they choose to express themselves in life.

We marvel at the tiniest hummingbird.  How can it move its wings so rapidly that it can hover in one spot and then fly off in a split second?  What strength and agility it has.  What diving form!  It’s hard to believe that something so tiny can bring so much beauty and wonder.

If you are feeling small and insignificant, remember your uniqueness. The only shoes you have to fill are your own and they fit you just fine!

There are no insignificant people, none who are less whole than another.  Eliminate prejudices and judgements whether cast upon yourself or another.  If you feel that someone is not up to your standards, then realise that is what you are projecting upon them.

Change your perception and see them truly as they are…a reflection of the Divine, just as you are.

Spirit expresses through us all in its own way.  It’s not for us to second-guess.  

If you are feeling less than whole, remember your divine birth and take comfort in knowing that you are divinely perfect.  Pursue your dreams and know that you are divinely guided.  Have faith in your dreams and your abilities.

I am a unique being.

There is no other like me.

My purpose is my own to fulfil.

No one else can do this.

Spirit expresses through me,

In a way that only I can give expression.

My gifts to the world are mine alone to give.

I am in divine harmony with all life.

So be it!

Take time to notice the smallest things today.  

WISHING YOU HEALTH

Wholeness

If you find yourself wishing for your wholeness, then it’s time to do whatever it takes to break the spell of dis-ease whether it be on a physical, mental or spiritual level.  All these levels must work together in order for you to be the best that you can be.

There must also be acknowledgment that lack of wholeness, or the feeling that something is missing, is all just an illusion.  

First understand your divine perfection, that you are now and have always been whole!  Bring that wholeness down and merge it into your body.  Treat your body well with a good diet, exercise and loving thoughts.  

If it is time for a checkup, then go get one.  There is always something you can do to honour your body and make it a happier place to reside.  Sometimes you have to place yourself above others in order to get proper rest and to ease out the tensions in your life.  This is not a selfish act, as you must be in tiptop condition in order to give your best to yourself and others.

Forgive yourself and others for any past deeds, as holding onto these regrets takes a lot of energy that could be used elsewhere.

Move forward.  Love yourself!  Know that you are worthy of good health and happiness!

I am worthy of good rest.

I am worthy of good food.

I am worthy of good health.

I am worthy of the good in life.

So be it!

Call a friend today!

LIGHTING THE WAY

Illumination

We all wish for guidance and help along the way, yet sometimes guidance comes from within.  When we connect to the energy of Spirit that resides within each of us, we see clearly what we are to do.  Reach for the stars!  

Allow that communication with Spirit to connect you to your highest good.

Connecting to Spirit is as easy as recognising that you are already one with the Universal Power.  Strengthen your trust in your Divinity.  

Ultimately, you are to be the one who shows others the way.  You hold the light for them as they climb the path of illumination.  

In order to do so you must continue your own journey in learning and refining your own truth.  It is only through example that we can change our world, one person at a time.  But if enough people hold the light, in enough places, we can bring about change at a much more advanced rate.  

This glorious faery holds the lantern for all to see, so that anyone who wishes to climb the path can better see the footholds and avoid the pitfalls.  She has reached the highest peak.  Her face shows that she takes her job seriously.  

Guidance can come in many forms…the words of a friend or loved one, or of a professional counselor.  Guidance can come from a book or a stranger’s words.  

Listen to what information comes your way, then sit with it and meditate on it.  You will get a sense as to whether it is valid for you or not, if you are open and willing to hear your truth.  You may be destined to teach or counsel others.

Each step of my journey is illuminated and sure.

I move with trust and confidence.

I welcome the chance to light the way for others.

I hold the light high.

So be it!

Light a candle for someone today!

Oh my gosh, I so, so, so love the cards.  Perfect for this moment in time!  So most delicious one, please take a moment to breathe in gratitude and like a tree, allow the leaves of release to drop like cosmic compost. Remember the Mabon Magickal Manual  birthday gift and I will see you in two weeks!  Big hugs and squeezes.
