When you take a Full Moon Eclipse, an Energy Shift and the 11:11 Portal what happens? Transformation Honey.

· ·

Happy Majestic, Magnificent, Magickal, Marvellous, Moony Monday!

How was your Samhain, All Saints Day and All Souls day?  I will say here in this neck of the woods it was deep, rich and welcoming!

We have lots to explore this week as there is big energy kicking around (in case you hadn’t noticed).  With moving into November the energy has shifted, Tuesday we have a Blood Moon Eclipse in Taurus.  Now I don’t know about you, but this energy is big and the word a lot of people are using is “Fated.”  (North Node energy activation and all that).

And we have the 11.11 portal energy on Friday.  

So snuggle up with a cuppa and let’s go dance between the warp and weft of these energies, so that we come out creating instead of tanking – yes?

As you know, we are now in November and the energy has shifted yet again (as it does monthly) and we are working with the energy of A NEW FERTILITY.  But what does this mean for you?

As Lena explains;  The first part of November, until the full moon on the 8th, remains an intense time between the 2 eclipses where anything can happen and the energy is tumultuous, unpredictable, somewhat accident prone, and can lean towards irritation, anger and restlessness.  

Remember that this is a time that supports transformational change and should be used wisely so don’t dwell on shortcomings and negativity. Use this time as an important reset for yourself that may include some letting go of negative habitual behaviour, addictions and situations that are toxic. 

Once we survive the next eclipse we have an opportunity to reboot our landscape and take a look at what we wish to initiate moving forward.

The theme of “a new fertility” is giving us the opportunity to re-evaluate how we think, what we believe and to move into a new way of being productive, sustainable and abundant.

We are moving out of a very masculine, active, aggressive time and into a more feminine expression of support which includes a necessary attention to what is fertility and how we are bringing it into our lives.

To have the most fertile ground requires fertilising it. Our fertiliser is the compost of our past patterns, experiences, lessons, trauma, grief, successes, disappointments, karmic relationships, challenges, opportunities taken, opportunities missed and anything else we have experienced in our past. 

Turning the past into good fertile compost requires letting go of your attachment to it.

Re-read that again!

It’s a time of big release of old dross and also releasing the attachment to it.  

In other words you can’t say you have released it and still talk about it daily!

On Tuesday, November 8th – Well, here we go. (Are you ready?)

A dramatic full moon lunar eclipse in Taurus will appear (which also happens to be Election Day in the United States).  Again, what does this mean for you?

This is a transformative and some have called it a “fated” eclipse.  It holds similar energy-ish to the one we had in May and it closes the eclipse portal that we have been experiencing.

Now if you remember, eclipses really uncover stuff.  I mean bring it to the surface like a boil!

An eclipse is a time where the dealings of our worldly life (money, relationships, work, family) can get a little wonky.

On the other hand, the mystical part of life becomes incredibly enhanced!

If you remember, Full Moons are a great time to let go and release energy that is no longer serving you which opens you up to new energy coming in which can support in healing, opportunities, advances, upleveling consciousness, partnerships/relationships, wisdom, financial, and/or abundance.

With this transformative Blood Moon Eclipse there is an uplevelling on all levels of our consciousness and our spiritual journey.  Which requires releasing the dross (are you seeing where I’m going with this?)

I have purposely used the word Transformative for this Blood Moon Eclipse, because if you are willing to do the work, release the dross, old baggage and welcome in new fertile energy; life will shift.  However, be clear on what you desire.

“Transformation can always be challenging and often requires the painful work of peeling back layers, shedding skin, and birthing into the new. Each of these steps carries its struggles and magic, but under a Blood Moon Eclipse, the intensity level can be turned up.”

So how to navigate this?  Take some time to journal and release.  Ask for strength, power and support for letting go of any drama that is not serving you well, acknowledge the karmic lessons you have learned and set an intention to embrace a new fertility where new ideas, insights and inspiration have a chance to take root and flourish.

This Friday (November 11th) is Remembrance Day, also known as Armistice Day.  It marks the day World War One ended at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918! 104 years ago!!!

Now I appreciate you may have been fortunate never to have experienced war, or had to fight in a war.  However, many people are not that fortunate and so I do feel it is very important, especially with what is happening in the Ukraine, to acknowledge and sit with it.  

To Remember.

The Poppy to me is a symbol of Remembering those who bravely went to fight for our freedoms and well being.  It is also a symbol of Hope, hope for our troops that are still deployed all over the world and Hope for a time of Peace.   As someone who was in the Military reserves and a reserve police officer, and also having friends who were or still are in the military, let alone a father who was and a grandfather, I feel very strongly about the respect and honour that is due to those sacrifices and those that are still away from home.  

Personally, I think it is important to focus on those types of events, the ones that inspire Hope and Peace, and don’t get me wrong, there are all sorts of wars still being waged all over the world.  But drop back into that space of Armistice, Hope and Peace – it is sooooo possible on every level in this world (at least that is my belief).

Thus on Remembrance day we have the potent energy of 11:11.  Great Jen, what does that mean for me (you may be asking)?

Close your eyes and remember the last time that you set an intention. Did you feel doubtful that your wish would come true, or did you have faith that the universe was listening, ready to help you bring your vision to life? 

11/11 is one of the most powerful days of the year for manifestation – a day when we’re reminded that our guides are always with us, supporting us on the path to our deepest dreams. There’s a reason why we’re told to make a wish whenever we see 11:11 on the clock. 11 is a master number, and its frequency speeds up manifestation, opening up channels through which angelic beings can send their wisdom and support.

“The number 11 grants us access to the 5th dimension, where the constraints of time and space do not exist. On 11/11, we experience 5D energy in the form of synchronicity, alignment, and acceleration. You might experience that “right place, right time” feeling – the reassurance that you’re on the right path, and everything you’re seeking is seeking you in return.”

A lot happening yes, amazing yes, transformative yes.  But are you willing?

Okay, let’s crack on with the reading.  

When I went to the cards and asked my guides who they wanted to work with they picked these glorious guides.  

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

These glorious guides give you needed glimpses into your everyday life and help you see where changes can be made to enhance your life here on Earth.  There is so much more to our world than we often perceive.

There exist many dimensions and numerous beings that reside in these realms.  All of these elemental beings are interconnected with us.  We do not live independent of one another but are interdependent.  These wonderful beings are here to help.

They not only take care of the Earth, but they work hard to take care of us.  We are familiar with many of these beings, such as angels, faeries, and elves.  There are many more we are not conscious of, but they, nevertheless, contribute to the workings of our planet.  Remember as you go through  your day, to ask for help from the elemental world whenever you need it.  The need is never too small to call on their help.  It is through helping us that they advance in their spiritual development.  We are their work.  We in turn can spiritually evolve through allowing them to help us.  To all these amazing beings we say Thank You.

Interestingly enough the crystals that came to share are all glorious beach stones and the herbs were most adamant. So we have Sage and Rosemary. Grounding and Flow is what they are saying.

Okay darling one, take a breath.  A glorious slow, sensual breath in through the nose and out through the mouth.  Feel your jaw relax (which helps your pelvic floor and diaphragm to relax) and as you breathe see in your mind’s eye a glorious Red Poppy.  

It dances in the breeze and its paper like petals glow with the richness of its colour.  As you start into the centre of it, allow yourself to be drawn in, ask your higher self, wise self – what karmic patterns do you need to release, what do you want to create space for that makes you feel hopeful and peaceful.

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

IVY

Finances

Faeries have no need to worry about finances.  They just trust they will be provided for, and so they are.

Trust has a lot to do with the finances of humans also.  

Asking and then trusting that things will work out for you opens a pathway for your good to come to you.  

This is a time when financial issues are at a head in your life.  There are opportunities opening up for you.  Keep your eyes open and be willing to check out any offers that come your way.  The Universe knows what you need and will provide if you stay grounded in faith.

Look carefully at how you use the money that is given to you.  Do you use it wisely?  Are you saving some each month?  Paying bills on time? 

If you find yourself resenting bill paying then change your attitude and face it with joy.  Thank Spirit that you are able to pay your bills.  Send each payment out with a blessing attached, that “…every person who comes in contact with this money be blessed.”  Finances will surely take a turn for the better.’

Have trust and believe!

A wee mantra for you:

Mother, Father God…I ask for your divine intervention on my behalf.

I ask for the perfect solution.

I ask for the perfect timing for the manifestation of the solution.

I am willing to accept your guidance and your wisdom…

And I expect the miracles,

Which are a demonstration of your love.

So be it.

Keep your eyes out for a coin today.   

PEDESTAL

Choice

Look at this card.  This angelic being is bound round and round, yet her bindings are not secured.

She can choose to unbind herself at any moment.

Situations are not always as dire as they seem.  You must look deeper at things going on in your life.  Are you seeing all the different sides of a situation?  Perhaps you are feeling restricted when it is your choice to simply decide to be free.  

We often bind ourselves with limited belief systems and outdated thinking patterns.  What habits can you change in order to release yourself from your limited thinking?  Many situations are not black or white or good or bad.  It’s up to you to sit and see both sides.  

Ask for clarity and to see all facets before making up your mind.  Find your pedestal where you can see your truth and release all that does not fit your chosen reality.  

Choose wisely what you want in your life.  All of the choices we make create a vibration that affects all other life in the Universe.  If one chooses wisely, it will be what is also best for others.  You have much more control of your life and circumstances than you realise.

A wee mantra for you:

I am a being with the gift of choice.

I am open to truth.

I choose to bring into my life, all the good that exists for me.

I choose freedom.

My life abounds with positive options.

I choose wisely with my best interest in mind.

So be it!

Choose the other one today!

BOOK FAIRY

Intellect

This is about reading, writing, study and all intellectual pursuits in general.  It’s also about the stories of your life.  If someone were to write about your life and the stories of it, what would they say?

For those who love to read, be sure to allow yourself plenty of time for relaxing with a good book.  For those who do not care to read, consider what you are missing out on and consider reading more.  

It may be time to delve deeper into an area of study and learning that interests you.  Perhaps furthering your education, with much reading to do.  

There is one caution, if your nose is always in a book to the exclusion of people and other activities, you may want to make sure that you are not trying to hide from life.  It’s fun to live in another dimension for a bit, but be sure to come back to your own plane of existence.

It may be time to consider exploring something new and furthering your education.

A wee mantra for you:

Princesses, goblins, and romantic things,

Treasures and pirates and magical rings.

Wings that are wispy and bells that ring clear;

Banishing dragons…the crowd roars a cheer!

Such are our stories and so they are told,

Both of the meek and also the bold!

Life is a story, about which I write.

I’ll make it a good one filled with bright light!

So be it!

Seek knowledge today!

Wowzer, glorious guides for this transformative and intense week.  Wishing you a stupendous week filled with ease, laughter and reflection as well as unpacking the dross trunk!  There won’t be a reading next week as this is a long weekend and I will be taking time to play, Remember and reflect.  Big hugs and squeezes.

Samhain, Stories and Scorpio New Moon Eclipse!

· ·

Happy Marvellous, Magnificent, Magickal, Manifesting, Miraculous Monday!!  

How are you delicious one?  

What I am absolutely pig wiggly tickled about is, Samhain is almost here!!!  (You may know it as Halloween) and I love, love, love Halloween.  The smells, the leaves, the costumes, the decorating – the whole nine yards!  

At the time that most of us celebrate Halloween it is also the festival of Samhain, the third and final Harvest festival  where we celebrate with fire, eating and honouring the dead.  

In many places, Samhain coincides with the end of the growing season. Vegetation dies back with killing frosts, and therefore, literally, death is in the air. This contributes to the ancient notion that at Samhain, the veil is thin between the world of the living and the realm of the Dead and this facilitates contact and communication.  

This is also the Celtic New Year.  Now I know some people get a tad tweaky when we talk Death, but death represents a release, whether it’s a release of breath, a release of habit, a release of a relationship.  That’s all it is.   

So to help you with one of the most important celebrations on The Wheel of the Year, and to share with you rituals to celebrate your ancestors, I have created a fabulous Book of Samhain (fondly referred to as BOS).  43 pages of lore, magick, stories, rituals, crystals, guided visualisation and all sorts more.  This Guidebook is jam-packed with everything you need to create a sweet, simple ritual & personal practice to celebrate Samhain. It also helps you feel deeply connected with nature & the Divine, and in tune with your Authentic Self – by creating a personal practice rooted in the seasons. And as I love to give gifts – I have made it 70% off!

Last week I was honoured and blessed to be officiating a celebration of life.  It was the first one I have done since my sister died 3 years ago, as to be honest I didn’t feel ready, it all felt still rather raw.  

However, the other month I was approached by a family who had lost their dear father/husband and asked if I would help them craft a ceremony to honour his death.   I felt into it and came to the decision that yes, I could.

Now when I help a family create a memorial I work with the philosophy of “Let that person’s life speak”.  It’s not just about what they did or how old they were, it’s about sharing the stories of the person, the memories, the anecdotes, the love, adventures, mishaps, funny sayings, hobbies – all of it.   And in doing the interviews there are so many amazing stories, tears, laughter and memories that flood to the surface, it’s quite amazing.

So at this memorial there must have been 200 people there, it was incredible!  All of them there to honour and celebrate a man they loved and missed.  Many friends and family got up to speak and share their memories, even if their voices cracked, there was laughter, music and a beautiful video clip of this wonderful man sharing his wisdom.  

To me that is a huge part of the energy of Samhain.  Honouring the dead, the stories of your ancestors, whether they be blood or choice.  The stories of your heritage whether it be blood or choice.  The stories of the past that support you and inspire you.  

And beyond reaching out to passed loved ones, make time to acknowledge the “deaths” both great and small in your life. There are so many things that have “died” this year, so honour the ones that matter most to you, even if they are a little painful.

Look to nature for guidance, as it is always showing us how it dies and rebirths itself again and again.

So a question for you.

What are your stories?

Just prior to Samhain, on Tuesday,  we open up the second Eclipse Portal of the year as we have a New Moon Eclipse in the delicious sign of Scorpio!

Now if you’ve been with me a while you will have heard me say – Eclipses uncover things you may have not been looking at or totally procrastinating about.  So with this Eclipse on a New Moon, what have you stuffed in your closet that you really want to plant the seeds for?  

Also, remember, the Eclipse season really ramps up the energy and not just for the day but for the weeks and months to come…….  Just saying.  

Eclipse Season is always a highly transformative time. You can think of them as portals that fast-track you to the next chapter of your soul evolution. On this fast track, we tend to undergo abrupt transformations that can be life-changing.

All Eclipses will affect us differently, some we may feel intensely and others we may barely notice. But if there is a big soul upgrade that is needed in your life, if you have been nearing the end of a journey or looking for a leaping stone to take you to a new one, Eclipses very often bring the bridge you have been waiting for.

As Forever shares, 

“As this Solar Eclipse falls in the sign of Scorpio, we may find ourselves connecting to a higher level of our soul, understanding ourselves on a deeper level, and peeling back some layers to really reveal a new truth.

With Venus very active at this time, we can use this Solar Eclipse energy to expand our hearts, the giving and receiving of love in our lives, and to think about what we truly value. We may find it easier to love, easier to give, or easier to focus on what is truly important to us.

Under this heart-expansion energy, we may even gain the clarity that is needed to help navigate any challenges in our relationships. We may decide that our heart no longer wants to be involved in a certain dynamic, or we may find that our heart is ready to open and move into that next chapter.”

So, when I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide and teach this week I nearly snorted tea out of my nose when I saw who was most adamant.  (Seriously you can’t make this shit up!)  The cards that chose to guide this week are Les Vampires  (seriously!)

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

These are the glorious denizens of a realm of mystery, legend and power.  

These lovely guides come to those who are undergoing a test.  If a shadow has fallen over your life, if you are confronting the unknown, you may feel abandoned and lonely, as if there is no light, no guide, and no path to follow.  

These guides walk the hidden paths of the Dark Forest, the ones who have made the Night their home, the guardians who can help you find your way back to the Dawn. They are abundant in all that you need at this time – rich in messages to offer, lessons to teach, and wisdom to share with you.

Oh my giddy Aunt!  Perfect!

So are you ready to play?  Hope so!  Take a moment, actually take more than one and just take a Breath.  Not a shoulder high breath, but a slowing, calming breath. 

Breathe it in through your nose and out through your mouth like a shoulder dropping sigh.  Keep breathing this way and invite into your minds eye your stories.  Don’t judge them, just let them swirl there like watercolours.  Don’t attach, just let them Be.  Then when you are ready and that energy has settled, pick the card or cards that invite you in.  They have something to share with you this week.  

Did you remember to pick?

Are you curious?

WITNESS

To have seen what you once thought was only a rumour, or only hearsay, or perhaps even made up, means you have changed.  You have experienced the dream that comes true in the weeks after you saw faces in the night, you have spoken with the nature spirits and you have come to know there is more than what so many humans wish to admit is true and alive in the world we all share.

Vampires like us, we are said not to exist.  But you know there is more here on this planet than anyone can even begin to dream of.

You may have witnessed something of late that others still deny is “real”.  But you are now a witness and having seen, you cannot un-see.  Knowing, you can no longer deny.  It is not that we wish for you to tell all of your new knowledge.  It is that we wish you to not lie to yourself, to no longer agnoise over questions of whether what you saw and felt and understood is true or untrue.  

There is so much on this planet of ours.  Think of it.  Who are we to deny the truth of the wonder that is this planet and all the manifestations of life upon it?

Know that what you have seen and felt is true.  Another may deny that you have witnessed a true thing.  But having seen or felt it for yourself, and now knowing, you have a duty to never again lie to yourself.  

You need not make this truth your entire life.  But never again lie to yourself.  

Accept the evidence of your experience, and honour it within your heart, and within your words when wisdom demands you speak freely.  

The veils of illusion and deceit have lifted.  While this can be painful, it is also a great blessing to know the truth.  Do not doubt your experience.  And when you speak of it freely and share your experience, you will find that others too resonate with what you are sharing.

FAITH

The belief that something will take place, or is right, or is a particular way, can be called faith.  Faith is quiet and hopeful, offers contentment and calm, it has not bravado, and it need not insist on its rightness.

Faith is something we have too, and we observe it in the best of those we call humans, the warm-blooded ones of whom you are one.

It is a beautiful gift that you humans have to be believers in this quiet, gentle way.  Faith is not always beautifully expressed.  Faith is a loving amazing quality, but it must be attached to something that is worthwhile.  

What do you have faith in?  What is faith to you?  Were you taught faith as a child, and did you lose faith at one point?  For you are often taught to believe in things that do not deserve your faith.

It may be time to relearn what it is you have enduring constant hope for – what you know will come to be, even if your eyes may never see.  To have faith is to remain loyal, but in a truly heartfelt way.  Tender, moving and full of grace, your faith may soon return to you.  Choose wisely in what you place this gift of your faith.  

If you have lost faith in a person, project, or humanity itself, it’s time to examine the source of your faith.

Know that it can be revived, and this time, you may choose where you place this most beautiful and tender of faiths.

REASON

I am the one who comes to you now so you can see clearly!  You feel others have had problems in this area, but if you simply think positively and send out waves of love the way will be cleared.

But no, this is not how this particular power works, my friend.

There is an obstructive force around you at present, one that will not allow you to pass, unless you strictly meet all criteria.  This force, in the form of a person, or institution, or corporation requires you to do everything that is required to pass through the gates.  

So, although you may consider yourself to be more charming, more well-liked, able to convince others, and worthy of inclusion, there is tedious paperwork and criteria that must be met – and we Vampires have this too.  You must do this perfectly, if you wish to pass the test, and gain what it is you seek.  

In the past it was the Church who controlled, now it is large companies and government institutions with their digital records and officious ways.  Whether it is tax time, or when you must fill out a form of endless length, read, and read again, the agreements you sign.  

Do not consider yourself different or better than others – for when it comes to matters like these, we are all subject to laws that are tedious at worst, punishing at times, and cruel at others.  The list goes on and on – there is a cruelty to the faceless conformity of bureaucracy – and to the negligence that can stifle your plans, and sometimes even threaten your very future.  

It’s time to sit calmly down, clear your mind, then begin to work your way through the details of a dilemma.  Trust us, there is a person about you who is able to advise you – please ask them for their assistance, and listen and act when that good advice is given with love and no strings attached.  

Your mind is powerful, and will be used for your soul’s highest purpose.  Accept excellent advice, and see the results this can bring.  

Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer.  What fabulous messages for this time, with Samhain approaching, New Moon Eclipse and where we are at this moment in time.  So most gorgeous bean, I wish for you a stupendous week filled with ease, tears and laughter.  Be gentle with yourself and those around you, treat yourself to the glorious Book of Samhain, carve a pumpkin or two!  And get ready to really  practice your magick and release the old year and welcome in the new one.  Big hugs and squeezes!

The Veil is Thinning, Samhain is Coming and it’s almost Eclipse time. Whoot!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Misty, Mizzly, Magnificent, Musical, Manifesting Monday!

Fall feels like it has arrived! Even though the weather is unusually warm here, it was as if a switch went off one day last week and voila we entered Fall. The breeze tasted different, the leaves started to gently fall and there is an anticipation in the air. It’s really quite delicious!

Which means that Halloween/Samhain is coming! (You should see my happy dance!) I love, love, love Halloween, it is my most favourite celebration. The pumpkin carving, the costumes, the terrorising small children when they come for sweeties and the decorating.

My front yard is bedecked and adorned with tombstones, skeletons dancing with the sunflowers, ghosts, ghouls and headless creations. I love it!

Many of you have asked if there is going to be a Magikal Manual for Samhain (Halloween), you bet!  It will be available for next week.

Now you may have heard people say “Samhain is coming and the veil is thinning.”

But what does that actually mean?

Let’s begin this exploration by considering that on one level, we are each separate beings with our finite little lives. But on a truer level, we are each infinite and eternal. We have no beginning and no end. And we are one with each other and every single thing. At Samhain, that relentless, all-pervasive Mystery is as close as it ever gets. And now we’ve arrived at what we mean when we say “the veil is thin.” 

You might say the veil is the place where the everyday illusion of separation brushes up against the divine truth of eternity and universal interconnection. The place where form meets spirit, seen meets unseen, known meets unknown.

When we meditate or perform ritual, or when we have a mystical experience of any variety, this curtain parts and we are able to gaze into the place of power, the place between the worlds.

Why does the veil thin throughout October, and particularly at Samhain? 

Because the days are getting shorter and the natural world is preparing to temporarily withdraw from the realm of life and growth. The harvest cycle is waning, but it’s not gone. 

This means Samhain is a transition: a doorway between the season of life and the season of death. Beneath this realm of constant change, there is a wide open space of eternity. A place of stillness in which the appearance of change arises. A serene openness to which we will always return, and with which we are one, even at this very moment.

Okay, enough chuntering on let’s crack on with the reading!  When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to guide, heal and support this week I was delighted to see that The Spirit of the Animals Oracle chose to shine.  

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.”

Wonderful!  So my darling one just settle in.  Allow your breath to bring you back into your body and call back all the pieces of you that you may have left in various places throughout the last week.  Just breathe them all back to your core, like welcoming in little sparks of starlight.  

To help you with this, there’s a lovely guided visualisation where we shall go for a little walk together, yes?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go and have a look shall we?

LIZARD

Lizard is an Ancient One.  They are reptiles from an older time.  Their quick action and quirky maneuvers outwit and confuse their adversaries.  Lizards survive.

Lizard is sometimes called the “little dragon”.  Lizard medicine has the power of regeneration and transformation.  Lizards can shed their skin, their tail, let go of the past and step into a positive future.  Lizard people know they can survive anything and heal against incredible odds.  They are powerful dreamers and should pay attention to messages that come from their subconscious.  You can receive warnings that will help you avoid pitfalls.

If Lizard has chosen you, you have the “little dragon” within.  Dragons are those who are free of the limitations of the past and transform into greater awareness of self and personal power.  With Lizard medicine, you can transcend injury and hardship.  Lizard people re-grow and renew themselves into wholeness.

As a survivor you are unparalleled,

No matter what happens you can adapt.

Embrace your transformation.

Put on your new cloak,

You are a master of regeneration.  

PEACOCK

The Peacock is the most iridescent of all birds.  Their feathered cloak of blue, aqua and gold is worthy of royalty.  Their boisterous cries hold both mockery and laughter, which comes from their regal self-confidence.  Peacocks are blessed with clear vision that notices the smallest detail.  Because of their ability to eat poisonous snakes, Peacocks were used as protectors in ancient temples. 

If Peacock appears good luck will follow.  The feathers of Peacock are symbols for protection, prosperity and sensuality.  The Peacock is a symbol for rebirth and new beginning like its cousin the esuvie Phoenix.

If Peacock has walked into your life you have a colourful and vibrant personality that is sure to win admirers.  You can raise yourself to great heights of brilliance in your field.  Peacock people have the gift of observation and kenn perception.  Your inner vision brings you wisdom and foresight.  You must guard against letting your vanity or pride get the better of you. 

The best Peacocks are just their authentic selves.  Your positivity and radiance helps lift others up to realise their own worth.

You were born to shine and inspire.

Practice humility to avoid jealousy.

Be grateful for life

And more good things will come.

Be true to yourself and 

Recognise your brilliance.  

OWL

Owl is the messenger and revealer of secrets.  The totem of oracles and seers, Owl sits on their shoulder and is their advisor  When Owl flies into your life know that a time of unveiling is at hand and the truth will be made known.  Change is in the wind. 

Owl medicine can help you release the past and fly into a better future. 

Owls are creatures of the night.  Their silent flight and superior vision make them supreme hunters.  They capture the prize.  If they cross your path repeatedly it is a warning to review your situation and see where deception is lurking.  To see an owl can be an omen that a profound change is coming.

If Owl is your totem you are an Old Soul.  You succeed with wisdom.  No one can deceive you and you see into others’ souls.  Be sure to keep your knowledge secret unless asked to provide counsel.  Trust should not be broken. 

Ask your Owl totem to sit on your shoulder and guide you.  Become the conscious student of Owl.  Embrace your gifts and fly with the  masters

Choose to know the truth because you can.

Open your inner vision.

You can see through deception.

Let the past go and make room for a better life.

Rise up, Magick and Wisdom are your birthright.  

Oh my Goddess!  Perfect guides for this week.  Regeneration, Vibrance and Magick!  Whoot!  So darling one, have a fabulous week.  If you are part of our amazing email community you will get notified this week about the Magickal Manual for Samhain.  Big hugs and squeezes and remember to go dance in the fall leaves and pick a pumpkin!

Spiritual Meaning of the Hunter’s Moon

On October 9th we welcome the Hunter’s Moon.

This Full Moon marks the end of the Harvest season and is rich in ancestral magick.

It is a time to start really connecting with your heritage, your ancestors and looking at what they have given you.  It’s also a delicious time of releasing your own old stuff.  

If you are new to working with Full Moon energy, there is fabulous information on all the aspects of it right here.

Remember that at Full Moon it is time to Release your energy, as the Full Moon marks the end of a cycle, and the Moon begins to grow dark, again.

The Hunter’s Moon derives its name from the hunting that takes place this time of year. Now is the season of the rut for Deer and Elk (mating season), and game are currently well-nourished. 

October’s moon brings the season of the hunt, preservation, and preparation for the icy cold days and nights to come.

The Hunter’s Moon is focused on internal work and self-reflection. We now begin the dark half of the year; accept and welcome the darkness with open arms and spirit. It’s a time of transition, divination, and balance. 

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.

So let’s explore a delicious ritual and some journal prompts to support you in deepening into the release and the magick of this moon. 

October is Here, The Energy has Changed, Full Moon in Aries and the Eclipse portal opens!

· ·

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!  

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

But what does that mean for you? Lots!

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 main theme for October is: “Tumultuous Transitions”.

“October is a potentially stressful month where patience, acceptance and flexibility are needed to navigate it well. We are being pushed up against the wall of our own internal process of change and there is nowhere else to hide from what needs to be released, healed and transformed. 

There will be cranky times where you feel pulled to go back inside, be alone and in your process. And there will be times where you feel a push to get out in the world and jumpstart your next chapter. 

The energy is up and down, tricky and erratic, with the potential for disruption. However there will also be times of magic, beauty, cooperation and support.

The responsibility and discipline this month will be to manage your energy in a way that uses it for positive change, personal evolution and necessary reorganization instead of being quick to anger, blame and negative reactions. 

Make kindness a daily practice and take care of the relationships you value.”

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?

This coming Sunday (October 9th), is the glorious Full Moon in Aries, also known as The Hunter Moon.  

The Hunter Moon is focused on internal work and self-reflection. 

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 beel 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 on the Full Moon).  Practice surrendering, and remember to celebrate the Full Moon.  If you are part of the email community there will be some guidance coming out later this week.  Big hugs and squeezes and be kind to your glorious self.
