Eclipse

Signs, a Kick Arse New Moon Eclipse and opening the Eclipse Portal!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Messy, Mysterious, Magickal, Manic, Manifesting Monday!

How was your Easter or Passover?  Mine was delicious, filled with play, food, family, dirt and lots of outdoor adventures!

So let’s get down to it, shall we?  

Because this week we open  up the Eclipse portal this week- whoot!  (No, don’t run away and hide in the closet).

However, before we start – do you remember that I said your mantra this month should be “Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries?” (I hope you have been putting that into practice.)

So let me ask, before we dive into eclipse energy – do you pay attention to the signs that are trying to communicate with you?  I often hear from clients and friends that they are asking for a sign, but because it doesn’t come in the neat tidy package they expect, they ignore it.

Signs are everywhere (think about the stop sign just down the road).  Or the feather that flutters down on your path with no bird in sight.  

Signs are a way of the Universe/Divine communicating and chatting with us.  

Could be numbers that show up, animals that randomly appear, feathers dropping from the sky, a friend you haven’t heard from for years phones, the perfect thing you were desiring manifests.  

Why am I bringing up signs?  

As we open up the eclipse portal many of you have shared they have been experiencing physical symptoms, vivid dreams, that restless energy where it’s as if your skin is fitting a bit too tight, strange signs, insomnia and oh such much more.  

Including zero tolerance for bullshit and arseholes.  

Totally get it!  (Signs)

What does this Eclipse mean for you?

On April 19th/20th (depending where you live) we have the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries (think about that sign). 

This is a hybrid solar eclipse which  is a combination of an annular and total eclipse, where the former becomes the latter and then it reverses back.  

In other words “The Aries New Moon Solar Eclipse is a hybrid between an Annular Eclipse, where you can see a ring of fire around the Sun, and Total Eclipse, where the Sun is completely blocked.”

Hybrid Eclipses are incredibly rare and can suggest a transition or perhaps a shift between two worlds. Just as the Eclipse moves from Total to Annular, perhaps something in our lives is preparing to shift too.”

Eclipses uncover hidden emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and habits.  

They bring to the surface the bits and bobs we have been either trying to stuff into an already over crammed closet, or have continually swept under a rug (and we wonder why the rug has a bump in the middle!)

However, This is a very powerful portal for transformation, change and moving into the next level of productivity and manifestation.

Eclipses  often act as portals to the life that our soul needs us to lead, so we evolve.

The energy of an eclipse can be like a reset button for our lives, allowing us to release old patterns and make way for new growth.

This can be a challenging process, as it often requires us to confront our deepest fears and limitations. But if we’re willing to do the work, eclipses can also be incredibly transformative times that lead to greater clarity, purpose, and fulfillment.

Don’t be afraid to embrace the intensity of the upcoming eclipse season. 

Trust that the universe has a plan for you, and that this powerful energy is leading you toward the life that your soul needs you to lead.

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

We have new guides this week, and they are so appropriate!  

Please let me introduce them.  

Have you ever seen something and felt like it was more than what it seems at first glance?  A sign?  We’ve been conditioned to write off these experiences as pure coincidence or nothing more than random occurrences, but that is not always the case.

Signs and symbols are the Universe’s way of communicating with us.  Our willingness to become an active participant in the conversation is a choice.  

The Universe is always communicating and signs speak to us in a very personal way, allowing each of us to have our own one on one relationship with the Divine.  Almost like the Universe has given you a nickname or a secret code that only you can crack.

These guides are a conduit for that energy.  

You are being invited into a conversation with the Divine and your Higher Self that will feed your soul and reveal the very answers you are seeking.

Let go of doubt and follow the signs.

Okay, let’s drop in shall we?  

I invite you to just gently breathe yourself back into this moment.  Just this moment.  

Let the dross of the day or the mind drop to the ground and feel your breath filling your whole being.  Allow it to take whatever pace it needs.  Then invite into your mind’s eye a glorious swirling vortex of energy.  In that energy is interwoven so many glorious messages from the divine just for you and the pieces that you have been stuffing under the carpet.

Let them come up, with no judgment, just watch them, breathe in and welcome the signs from the divine, breathe out and let go of the bumps under the carpet.  

Then when you are ready.  Pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s have a gander, shall we?

PALM

Destiny

Look at your hand, the palm of your hand.  There is power in your palm. 

When you rub your palms together vigorously you create a ball of energy.    A ball of energy that is palpable and can change things.  

So what are you passionate about?  Have you thought about your purpose?

You are being invited back to yourself and your destiny.

Prepare for fated events and glorious moments that seem out of your control.

You may notice an increase in coincidences, and things may align in ways that seem to be impossible.  These forces are pushing you toward your destiny.  You are being nudged to follow your soul’s calling.

If you don’t know what that is yet, take some time to feel into what you are drawn to and what you may enjoy.

You may experience such random connections that lead you to exactly where you are destined to be.  Allow your intuition and spiritual senses to guide you.

If you are feeling like you are destined for more, but not quite sure what that might look like.  Accept that you don’t have an explanation for everything and allow the Universe to work its magic and guide you.

Fate is stepping in and leading you to your next phase.

LOTUS FLOWER

Enlightenment

The lotus flower represents the quiet strength and ease that follow once you have achieved a heightened level of awareness.  There’s an inner knowing, peace, and spiritual connection that shifts your focus from constant worry to allowing yourself to approach situations as they come, with this awareness..

After many life lessons you have grown and acquired valuable wisdom.  Situations that may have previously caused stress or strife now roll off your back.

Approach life with a pure heart and calm mind, which allows you to rise above the noise.

With this enlightenment lifting you up, it is still important to stay grounded.  

Serve as an example for others who may be struggling or not possess the same level of understanding you now have, so be patient and accept people for where they are in their journey.

Remember to connect with your ancestors and your roots. You have lots to share. 

ANGEL NUMBERS

Confirmation

Have you ever looked at your watch, a clock and the numbers are repeated?

Maybe it’s 3:33, 4:44, 11:11 or others.  Repeating numbers are among the most recognisable symbols of the Universe that are speaking directly to you.

Once you start to notice an angel number, it becomes difficult to ignore, whether it be the building number 1111 or a receipt for $3.33 from the petrol station.  

Each pattern of numbers has its own individual message and energy, but overall, numbers are signs of synchronicity and alignment in your life.

They tend to show up as confirmation that you are not imagining the signs you are picking up all around you.

Trust you are on the right path.

There are many different instances in which angel numbers can speak to you, including the time on the clock, license plate numbers, phone numbers and more.

Listen to your intuition, as you could be receiving critical guidance about the road ahead.  

The Universe is guiding and supporting you in your journey, and the synchronicities are a constant reminder.

Trust that you are exactly where you need to be.

Happy Monday!  Happy Eclipse Portal.  Remember to keep your boundaries healthy and strong, release the dross, embrace and work with this gorgeous energy that wants to help and support you.  Huge  hugs, see you next week.  

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.

With this Blood Moon Eclipse are you willing to cross the Thresholds?

· ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Moodling, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

Well here we are at the Blood Moon Eclipse in Scorpio, how are you feeling?

If you remember, eclipses come in pairs.  As if they are a Portal or a Threshold.  

We had the first eclipse of the year just 2 weeks ago at the New Moon and its counterpart is happening right now.  However, the bottom line is – what does this mean for you?

Eclipses uncover hidden emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and habits.  

They bring to the surface the bits and bobs we have been either trying to stuff into an already over crammed closet, or have continually swept under a rug (and we wonder why the rug has a bump in the middle!)

So if you have been feeling agitated, emotional or as I like to refer to it – “itchy, twitchy and bitchy”, I’m not surprised.  

With this being a Full Moon Eclipse.  Imagine the energy of a Full Moon intensified by 100, that is the energy this brings.  The releasing of a full moon, the uncovering of an eclipse and the deep, deep emotions of scorpio (with a zing!).  

On top of it we have Mercury retrograde which is all about transforming how we communicate.

Pluto retrograde which is about facing our shadow sides, the bits that we have shunned and don’t want to accept.  Revisiting old patterns and being willing to burn them in the fires and go through the process of transformation and regeneration.

And this all happens in the South Node which is about karma, the collective karma. 

So we are going to see massive shifts and changes happening on a global scale, let alone a personal one. 

And remember, eclipse energy is in play for 3 months!

Thus, I invite you to look at this time as a Threshold.  

Now what do I mean by that?

When you think about the word Threshold, what comes to mind?  A doorway?  A gateway?  A portal? A remembering?

As we move through any change or transition, there is a sense of fear filled with expectation. Think about when your children left home or you ended a career, moved across the country, started a new relationship, ended an old relationship, lost a loved one etc.  Even going to the grocery store!

These are all thresholds, (as are the doors we walk through).

A Threshold is a liminal time.  

A space where we are between the old and the new.  (Which is what liminal means aka threshold).  

Often, when encountering thresholds, we talk as if our work is that of successfully “passing through” them. We speak of “making healthy transitions.” We seek out advice and support as we decide which thresholds to lean into and which to resist. The goal, it would seem, is figuring out how to travel forward in the right way.  But what if we looked at it a different way?

 “A threshold is a space to imagine a new way, and a new self. Not moving or pushing but sitting and cultivating… The goal is to allow you space and time to reflect on your past, present, and future.  To imagine a new beginning…”

Rev. Sara LaWall

What if a Threshold isn’t a place that you cross, but a place that you pause?  A place that transforms you?

 What if the invitation is to ask yourself daily:

What do I want to bring with me and what do I want  to leave behind (or keep out) as I move through this threshold?

As I was yomping on the weekend, in a “new to me” place.  I followed a path that led to a trail that led to the cutest “English Country” laneway that felt magickal.  There were comfrey, lilacs, sweet cicely, and a myriad of other plants growing wild on the edges.  My heart swelled with remembering and massive delightful joy.  I had found a threshold, and it brought up so many delicious things for me.  

So review the questions above and I leave you to ponder them.  

Okay, with all that being said – let’s crack on with the reading.  When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to share their wisdom and insight with you this week, the glorious “Love Your Inner Goddess” guides came out big and bold.  Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to).  

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth. 

Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world.  We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK.  Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense.  She wants so much more for you.  She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny. 

She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart.  She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you.  You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true. 

There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed.  Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity. 

She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “ 

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time.  Woosah!

So gorgeous one, breathe.  Just breathe, BE and allow yourself to relax, your mind to calm, your breath to slow and ask your wise inner self – what do I need to know this week.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at your heartstrings – don’t let your mind pick!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ON YOUR OWN TERMS

You are not the person you once were.  You know it, but others might not always be ready to let the old you go so easily.  Do not allow yourself to be shoved back into patterns of behaviour that are not true to who you are now.  You have worked hard to grow and become this new self.  Believe that she is more real than the old you, even if she is less familiar to others (and maybe even to you) at this stage.

All that will change, and what is new now will become familiar and easy for you to sustain in the near future.  Be stubborn in a good way whilst you – and others around you – come to realise that the new you is the real you.  

Others may offer their input, but when it comes down to it, it is you alone making your life decisions.  Your choice may once have been to meet the expectations and honour the opinions of other people – but you are aware now that the best choices for you actually honour your own heart, irrespective of whether others understand your reasons or feelings.

You now know that you don’t have to wait for permission.  You get to choose how you want to feel, how you want to live, and who you want to be.  You’re ready for the responsibility and sweet reward of living your life on your own terms.  

WARRIOR GODDESS

This is not a time to play it safe, nor is it time to allow another to take the lead in your life.  You need to believe in yourself and trust that the instincts guiding you are correct.  If you need to take action, do it.  Speak up: say yes; say no.  Trust your inner truth completely.

Be bold.  

The Universe will answer your boldest actions with affirmation, and you’ll move through the consequences of your actions with grace and courage, ending up exactly where you are meant to be.

You are ready.  Life has been preparing you.  Your experiences have made you stronger and wiser.  You have spirit and you have courage.  Believe in yourself!  You are a Warrior Goddess, and empowered, divine woman.

Trust that your foundations are strong.  Put your faith in the Universe.  It has been your life coach and guide all along, helping you build up your inner resources, encouraging you to realise the power that has always been within you.

The Universe believes in you.

When you feel it is time to take a step, take it with confidence.  When you ask for help from the Universe, ask with boldness and total confidence that your prayers will be answered in the best possible way.  You have the right to require that your personal space be respected.  You have divine permission and encouragement to claim your rightful place in the world.  You are meant to say no to behaviour that is dishonest, manipulative and bullying.

The warrior goddess uses her sacred anger to set a boundary and speak her truth, not to attack another.  She uses her inner fire to live with integrity, even if the right choices for her seem hard or frightening at the time.  She knows that the Universe has her back, so she is willing to be true to herself no matter what.  

She places integrity above all else.  She knows that compromising her self-respect to win a battle will end up losing her the war.  

YOU ARE THE LIGHT

You are going through a spiritual initiation.  This is happening because you are ready for it, even if it doesn’t always feel that way.  The way to pass this test is to rely on the light within you.  Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead.

Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead.  Don’t give in to despair or believe that things will not work out.  You are learning to trust that the Universe knows what it is doing.  There are great and beautiful things meant for you, and no matter what appears to be right now, they will come to you in the perfect way and at the perfect time.

Light is powerful.  Some people don’t understand this.  The fear in their hearts makes them cynical.  That fear stops them from seeing what is true.  In the absence of truth, they hold on to their judgements instead.  They scoff at what they don’t understand.  Be careful of allowing such people to influence you.  

It’s not wise to take advice from people who are investing in creating pain.  You can have compassion for them, but you must not underestimate how their negativity can taint your trust in the Universe.  When we feel the light within us, when we trust in it, we are able to move beyond the fear and negativity that exists in this world.  You have it within you to be that light.

The only thing that can trap you is the choice to believe in the negative and give in to the fear.  

That’s not you, so don’t choose that for yourself.  Don’t listen to people who would cause you to question the light.  The light within you is the real you.  

Be at peace, beautiful one, for the positive power of the light in you is stronger than any darkness.    Keep your faith in the light.  All will be well.  

Holy Hannah, you seriously can not make this shit up! Releasing old patterns, being bold and being the light.  Now more than ever we all need that!  So delicious lovely, I wish for you a fabulous week filled with ease, joy and deep belly chortles.  May you always remember how special and important you are and that the world needs YOU!  Big hugs and squeezes.  See you in 2 weeks!

Mothering and the Blood Moon Eclipse.

· ·

Happy Marvelous, Magickal, Magnificent, Miraculous, Merry, Majestic, Manifesting Monday delicious lovely!  How was Mother’s Day for you? 

I realised yesterday that asking that question can be rather loaded as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more.  

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

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

Afterwards I went up and shared with her my experience and she could really hear how that didn’t feel safe inviting that person in.  So instead she invited me to bring in someone who represented that mothering energy instead – so the next time I happily brought in my Great Aunt, another Aunt and a lovely older female friend, amazing women who had “mothered” me and some still do.  Which in turn created a totally different experience!

This also got me to pondering the Roe vs Wade issue that is happening in the US at the moment. (Ready for a soapbox moment?)

To be honest, I had never wanted children when I was younger.  I wasn’t one of those young women who said “I want to get married, have kids etc.”  Hell no!  

So to ensure that didn’t happen I took every form of birth control known to humankind, in fact at one point they took the pill I was taking off the market due to heart issues.  Condoms, spermicide, diaphragms, IUD’s, the pill – you name it, I took them. 

As a woman, and a mother of 5 I have been pregnant 10 times. 

I chose to terminate two pregnancies, with great conscious awareness and gratitude that this was available to me, though I will be honest – the first termination I was 19 years old and the doctor made it a living hell for me and lectured me from a place of judgement, patriarchy and disgust.   I have miscarried 3 times.  And I am also blessed with 5 amazing children, who I have learned a lot from, and they have helped me grow up.  

But to be told that I could have no control over my body, my own choices, that I had to bear a child?  I’m sorry, that is fucked in my books (and if that offends you let’s appreciate to differ shall we?)

Okay, I will step off my soapbox now, but whichever side you land on this argument.  Please ponder it.  Ponder it deeply. We all should have choice. We all should have a voice.

This coming weekend ( in fact on May 15th), we will have another eclipse.  

This is a Blood Moon Eclipse in Scorpio – so what does that mean?

Eclipses are harbingers of change — they usher in evolution. At a lunar eclipse, the shadow of the Earth falls across the face of the Moon bringing unconscious feelings to the surface, grounding them in reality. Lunar eclipses are culminations of emotional cycles that have run their course, and they encourage us to let go of emotions and attachments that are no longer serving us.

All Eclipses activate our soul contract, bringing forward events that are necessary for the growth and evolution of our soul. Even though Eclipses can bring challenges our way, they always put us where we need to be.

As Forever shares:

“Under the May 2022, Blood Moon Eclipse, we are being guided to close the door on a chapter in our lives. This Eclipse represents endings, closure, and completion. Something needs to end, and this Eclipse is going to be the trigger.

As this Eclipse falls in the transformative sign of Scorpio, we may also find ourselves retreating within to shed layers and move into a deeper and more authentic state of being.

Scorpio is represented by the scorpion for its ability to transform itself and shed its skin. But Scorpio energy is also connected to the Phoenix too. The Phoenix has the ability, the strength, and the power to birth itself from ashes. From the ashes it rises into its true and highest form.”

Eclipses are brilliant illuminators, revealing a truth about a condition that you never in a million years knew existed. Once you are given the information, the news can act as a catalyst to a major decision or action you will take. Most often we are shocked or surprised by the information that comes to us, for the eclipse is one of the most dramatic tools the universe uses to get you to sit up, pay attention, and take action. Eclipses are always your friends, for they are there to help to protect you. 

Always be grateful for the truth.

Hmmmm, I don’t know about you but I feel that as a collective we need to shed quite a few things.  Don’t you?

Okay, enough chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that were most adamant to come and guide this week are The Oracle of Shadows and Light.  Now if these guides are new to you, let me introduce them (as that’s the polite thing to do), 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?

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come to the forefront are Smoky Quartz – this is an amazing stone for grounding, leaving behind baggage and surrendering.  Stone Canyon Jasper – is known as the ‘supreme nurturer’. It bestows a feeling of tranquillity and integrity, by providing warmth, nourishment, and protection.  Amethyst –  aids in healing and intense spiritual growth.  

The flowers are lovely Bachelor Buttons and Poppy petals.

Let’s settle, yes?  Just breathe nice and slow, in through your nose and out through your mouth.  Allow your shoulders to gently drop and nestle along your spine, like gorgeous wings at rest.  Breathe into the corners of your belly and down to your toes.  Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you, inviting you to “see” them.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a peek!

TWO KITTENS

This magickal being is holding tight to two beautiful cats; both of them offer her growth in her femininity, independence, and satisfaction on many levels.  Both of them are very young, very tender.  She feels nurturing and protective toward them both.  “How can I put one down?” she asks, torn.  She is being asked to choose between the two, to separate one thing from another, and she is shocked that she must make this choice.  When this comes to you, tune in.  Ask yourself, your body, what it wants to do.  Make a decision.  You can no longer go on at this point attempting to walk in two directions at once.  And that which you most fear – causing pain – will not happen when you choose.  Cats are about your independence,  your ability to leap high and to make it through many tricky situations.  Choose.  Choose now.  

So are you having trouble making an important decision?  You can’t see which one to choose?  Which way to go?  Both seem equally good or equally flawed?  Hmmmm.  We have come to show you the difference between two choices.  You know you can take only one road at this time, and you know you must trust that that which you leave behind – that which you are telling yourself you are abandoning – will be safe and cared for.  You will make it through this choice without feeling agonies of guilt.  You will.  The Universe trusts you to make the right choice!  Feel it – you can now choose between seemingly indivisible ways.  There will be a solution to this impossible situation.  

For now, put one thing down and choose the other, or no real growth can take place.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

You are changing the way you view yourself and speaking up and out.  Others see you as an advocate for justice and fair play.  You defend others by being who you are, simply by refusing to hide away or be fearful.  By waking up every day, despite hardships, you are showing so many the way to live.  You have made friends with your strength, and while people have mistaken you for a pushover, you  know when the time comes that you are a strong person who cannot be stopped.

Like a wolf, you have fur and claws, and brothers and sisters who will help you if you only so much as call on their energy.  But to find them, you must connect with the wolf within.  It is time to travel on a new path, crossing a wood that seems empty and cold, but you will not be alone or as helpless as others seem to think you will be.  You are not prey.  You will have strong and unconventional allies.  Like a wolf, you must be prepared to defend yourself, even if it means facing a fight.  There is time to stand your ground and face the enemy.  That time has come, brave one.  

As little Red Riding Hood says – once I was hunted.  I do no not hunt in return, but watch.  And I am strong.  I am myself, and I am proud of who I am.  No one can harm me now that I have this knowledge, and with  my mystic familiar – my lone wolf – by my side, I continue to walk my path.  While I have lost some of my innocence, I have my life, my strength, my voice, my ability to stay myself no matter what others do or sy.  I will no be a victim.  I am not a victim.  I am alive.  And I will never give up.

THE FAERY BEE

A bee appearing in the beautiful natural world is a wonderful sign that true health is being restored to you.  Bees speak of timeless wisdom – as in the ancient proverb “Ask the wild bee what the Druids know” – and are adept at creating shapes, patterns and, of course, honey, which provides food, sweetness, a natural antiseptic, and air-ionizing healthful wax, and can be made into med.  It is also said that after completing the ritual of the labyrinth in ancient Crete, the priestesses of Ariadne offered the initiates honeycomb to celebrate and acknowledge that all their needs would be met from that time forth.   Bee can symbolise abundance, but, most importantly, it symbolises that all you need is being provided – and love is sure to come.

You ask me where the honey is, where the sweetness of life, the ease of life is?  You wonder where the casual health and robust days have gone, and where the bright flowers and the sunshine have vanished to?  No one took these things from you.  You denied yourself your own needs and pleasures.  I am here at all times, yet you have turned away from the natural world.  For you to bring back its sweetness, you must spend time with flowers, ones that blossom generously – flowers of the plant kingdom and flowers of the human kind.

You have spent too much time among the bare-branched ones, who have told  you that you will never acquire the luxury of feeling safe and comforted, but I am here to share that living life sweetly is as simple for you now as being outside in the sunshine for a few moments every day.  The flowers will bloom; the bees will come back; your joy and delight will return.  

Wowzers!  Choice, Speaking Up and giving yourself the gifts of delights!  All super strong messages in this month of All About Balance.  How did your card resonate for you?  Well, delicious lovely, have a fabulous week, don’t forget the Blood Flower Moon Eclipse this weekend.  Wishing you spring flowers, warm showers, ease, effortlessness and flow and most importantly peace and laughter.  Huge hugs and squeezes, see you next week.
