Summer Solstice. How to Embody and Celebrate it!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

What is Summer Solstice you ask and why the heck should I give it any attention?  

Mighty fine questions, so let’s go for a little explore. Solstice comes from the Latin words sol, meaning Sun and sistere, meaning to come to a stop or stand still. On the day of the June Solstice, the Sun reaches its northernmost position, as seen from the Earth. At that moment, its zenith does not move north or south as during most other days of the year, but it stands still at the Tropic of Cancer. It then reverses its direction and starts moving south again.  The opposite happens during the December solstice. Then, the Sun reaches its southernmost position in the sky – Tropic of Capricorn – stands still, and then reverses its direction towards the north.

On a purely factual basis Summer Solstice (for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere)  marks the longest day of the year and the shortest night, it’s the start of the lazy hazy days of summer.  Kids are normally on summer break, families scramble to go on a holiday or camp, and a lot of time is spent soaking up the sun whilst hanging at the beach, playing in the water or hosting a summer bar-b-que.  Summer Solstice both ushers in the warmest season and also a gentle reminder that the days are going to get a bit shorter. Even though the days feel longer, more languid and relaxed there is an underlying freneticism of getting outside, celebrating the sun as much as possible, as it will soon be gone.  

This year Summer Solstice occurs on Friday June 21st.

Okay, so we have the facts, but what does it all mean?  Summer Solstice (also known as Litha) is all about abundance, growth, expansion.  It’s the celebration of the Sun! Think about it, the farmer plants the seeds in the cool of the Spring in the wet ground and as the Summer Solstice approaches things have sprouted and are reaching up as if they are doing a glorious sun salutation.  It’s a time to watch the ripening and fruiting of the plants around us and our ideas.

This is a delicious inner fire/power celebration that acknowledges the abundance that grows from tiny seeds.

At Stonehenge, (which was built over 5,000 years ago) the heelstone marks the midsummer sunrise as seen from the centre of the stone circle.  In ancient times, the Summer Solstice was a fire-festival of great importance when the burning of balefires ritually strengthened the sun. It was often marked with torchlight processions, by flaming tar barrels or by wheels bound with straw, which were set alight and rolled down steep hillsides. The Norse especially loved lengthy processions and would gather together their animals, families and lighted torches and parade through the countryside to the celebration site.

The use of fire, as well as providing magical aid to the sun, were also used to drive out evil and to bring fertility and prosperity to men, crops and herds. Blazing gorse or furze was carried around cattle to prevent disease and misfortune; while people would dance around the balefires or leap through the flames as a purifying or strengthening rite. The Celts would light balefires all over their lands from sunset the night before Midsummer until sunset the next day. Around these flames the festivities would take place.

In Cornwall up to the mid 18th century the number and appearance of fires seen from any given point was used as a form of divination and used to read the future.  So as we can see, this celebration has been around for years upon years and has an intensity and a deliciousness about it.  

So now we have facts, the meaning – how does one celebrate it?  There is no right or wrong way by any stretch. However, here are a few simple ideas that aren’t overly complex.

Move your body.  Welcome the sun on this longest day with a couple of sun salutations.  This is a simple Yoga flow that requires you to be present and go as far as your body will allow you to go.  If you are unclear as to what it looks like there are some great beginner versions on line and this will give you a glorious full body stretch (in a gentle way).

Make an altar.  Pop some seashells, flowers, fruit and dried herbs on it and voila, you have created an altar.  It doesn’t have to be big, or front and centre in your living room if that makes people around you uncomfie.  Your altar could be those cool rocks you picked up over the last year all gorgeously stacked on your kitchen counter.

I call it your Summer Solstice B.O.S.S  Enjoy!

 

It’s Beltane!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

I love Beltane, I love it because it is fiery, passionate, intentional and produces results!  

Beltane was thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar.  Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

Beltane celebrates the height of Spring and the flowering of life. Earth energies are at their strongest and most active.  All of life is bursting with potent fertility, look at the trees around you – (if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere), they are bursting forth with bright green leaves and the little sparrows are back as well as the robins.  Abundant fertility, on all levels, is the central theme.

The Goddess has reached her fullness and is the manifestation of growth and renewal and shows up as the May Queen, Flora, the Goddess of Spring. The God emerges as the Young Oak, May King  or as Jack in the Green. They fall in love, the union is consummated and the May Queen becomes pregnant. Together the May Queen and the May King are symbols of the Sacred Marriage, the union of Earth and Sky.  If you have ever read “The Mists of Avalon” you will know what I am talking about. “This is the night of the Greenwood Marriage. It is about sexuality and sensuality, passion, vitality and joy. And about conception. A brilliant moment in the Wheel of the Year to bring ideas, hopes and dreams into action. And have some fun!”

Have you ever seen a Maypole dance?  If you have never seen a proper Maypole dance done, I highly recommend it!  A phallic pole, often made from Birch (why Birch you ask –  Birch is regarded as a feminine tree and Deities associated with Birch are mostly love and fertility goddesses. It is one of the first trees to show its leaf in Spring), was inserted into the Earth representing the potency of the God. At the top there would be a glorious wreath, most often Hawthorn flowers and the flowers represented the Goddess.  Hawthorn is a deeply magical tree and is one of the three trees at the heart of the Celtic Tree Alphabet, the Faery Triad, ‘by Oak, Ash and Thorn’. Traditionally Beltane began when the Hawthorn, the May, blossomed. It is the tree of sexuality and fertility and is the classic flower to decorate a Maypole with.

The dance around the Maypole represented Their unity.  Ribbons of Green, White and Red hung down from the top of the pole and each young woman would take an end and dance.  As they danced around the pole they would weave in and out and through whilst holding onto their gorgeous ribbon. This weaving represented the Spiral of Life and the union between the God and the Goddess.  It’s moving artistry and glorious fun!

So if you haven’t gotten it yet, Beltane is a festival of flowers, fertility, sensuality, and delight.  The Beltane fires of yore were a time of revelry, pairing and celebrating fertility (there were lots of babies born 9 months after the celebrations!)  Also, cattle would be led between two fires for protection and to encourage a strong, fertile herd. People believed the smoke and the ashes from the Beltane fires offered protection and fertility.  Holy wells were visited and feasts were had. Rowan was often used in Beltane festivals as it’s a tree of protection and healing. Branches of Rowan were placed as protection over the doors of houses and barns at Beltane to protect from increased Faery activity as they woke from their winter slumber. Sprigs were worn for protection also. Rowan berries have a tiny five-pointed star on the bottom reminiscent of the pentagram.

So all in all a great time to celebrate, set intention, fertilise either self or ideas and have a grand jolly time!  

But I guess the question some people have is – “Why bother marking the day?”  Good question, and my answer would be because it connects you to something bigger, older and deeper than our modern day to day.  

I love the way Donna Henes puts it:-  Ceremonial observance adds lucid layers — depth, dimension, drama and distinction — to our lives, making the ordinary seem special, and the special, extraordinary. Through the practice of ritual we are privileged to experience ourselves as prepared, present, passionate, principled and potent. When we set aside the quality time and claim the psychic space for ceremony, when we assume the authority to do so, we are able to transform our perceptions, our perspectives, our experiences, and in the process, our reality.

Does ritual have to be long, drawn out, complicated and require a shed ton of things you don’t have in your home?  Some people believe so, but I don’t. To me ritual is performed when I make food for those I love with the intention of it being nourishing and a dish of connection.  It’s also in when I routinely smudge and energetically cleanse my home, or in the Epsom salt tub that I draw up for one of the boys with the oils that will help them.

So with all that being said let’s go explore 3 simple rituals for Beltane.  The first one is the egg charm (and I most certainly do this at Easter) and it is so easy to do.  The second is a tree blessing, which I love and will be doing. The last, but not least is a very simple dandelion renewal ritual – if spring has sprung early enough for you.   

Pick what resonates for you, or create your own.  The key elements are Intention, Willingness and Openness.  

Enjoy and have fun!

It’s a glorious Full Moon in Pisces – 6 easy steps to maximise this energy.

Jenny Heston · 5:34 pm ·

For thousands of years we have been guided by the sun, the moon and the stars.  The waxing and waning of the moon has fascinated most humans for centuries and justifiably so!  Every full moon is surrounded by legends and lore of its own. Each month is a bit different from the last, and as the year progresses, magical energies change and flow, just like the moon and the tides.  This month we celebrate the Full Moon on September 6th at 12:02 PST.  Full Moon in Pisces.   So not only do we have the moon energy, but there are thematic energies for the months.  

The theme of August was RESET and that is exactly what both eclipses did in August, they invited and in the case of the fiery solar eclipse – demanded that you reset, released and renewed yourself, your habits, beliefs – fairly much everything.  Lots of people have said that they feel or have felt depleted, zapped of energy, drained if you will but that’s all about the RESET.  

However, the theme of September is ADJUSTMENT.  You know something is different, and you know things should be different, you can feel it somewhere inside.  Yet you might not be able to fully embrace the reality of it all until you adjust on all levels, assimilating and integrating as you go. So in this period of adjustment comes the glorious Full Moon in Pisces.  Some may refer to this as the Harvest Moon, but that isn’t quite the case as the Harvest Moon is the one closest to the equinox, so this one is also  known as the Corn/Barley Moon.  

This Piscean Moon changes the energy up by inviting us to play in the depths and to learn where life is leading us.  The energy is more mystical, dreamier, very intuitive and creative – also there is a waft of nostalgia and a yearning, a yearning for the change (even though you might not know exactly what that is)  and the adjustment.  

This is a glorious Full Moon to acknowledge your courage, expansion, showing up and your own power and ability to change, adjust and be more.  It’s also a fabulous Full Moon for connecting with your inner psychic (and yes, you do have one).  A Pisces Full Moon helps us to understand our true intentions and illuminates what is really guiding our lives.  Under these realizations, we are all going to be able to bloom into our fullest potential, as long as our intentions and motivations are aligned with the highest calling of our souls and we make room to adjust.  

How to do this you ask?  Ahhhh grasshopper great question.  As each Full Moon brings it’s own energy to play here are some recommendations to energise yourself physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally.  

Get out in Nature and gather some energy from the earth, the sun, the sky and the unknown realms and allies around you.  This could be taking a walk in a park, sitting by the water, picking flowers from your garden (but remember to ask them for permission and bless them prior to picking them).  

Most certainly do the Full Moon forgiveness work.

Release any psychic debris that might be clinging to you and do an energy or aura cleanse, (this isn’t as challenging as it sounds).  

Soak in the tub with glorious oils, some flower petals or some Epsom salts (remember to shower them off afterwards).  As this is a Piscean Full Moon, water is a great way to celebrate it.  

Use the crystals of this moon to help with keeping you grounded, present, releasing and manifesting.  Put some garnet, red agate, carnelian and tiger’s eye in your pocket.  Or create a small altar (a candle, a sprig from the garden and crystals).  

When all this is said and done, be grateful.  Do your gratitude work and get clear on what you already have in your life and what you are bringing in.  

 

So there are some easy steps to celebrate, calibrate and enjoy this glorious Piscean Full Moon!

 

 

It’s Summer Solstice! – Weekly Reading June 21st

Jenny Heston · 3:48 pm ·

Happy happy Summer Solstice delicious one.  I’m so glad and grateful you took the time to come visit!  I love Summer Solstice as much as I love Winter Solstice, they are two incredible markers to show us where we are and how the seasons are moving with us.  What the heck is Solstice and why bother celebrating it you may possibly ask – if you want to learn more about Solstice there is great information, ideas and suggestions here.  

However, in a nutshell why celebrate it, or at least acknowledge it?  Because holy hannah honey you are connected, connected to the seasons, the changes, to the planet you live on, to the people around you and even that frigging annoying bug who keeps trying to dash up your left nostril when you’re riding your bike!  Let me ask – do you ever pay attention to the moon?  Do you ever sit and watch the stars?  When you encounter a kid that you knew years ago do you think – wow, they have grown?  Have you ever sat next to the ocean and felt the pulse of the waves?  Have you ever planted a seed and watched it push up through the ground and flourish into a gorgeous flower?  Do you celebrate the first snowfall?  These are all seasons, changes and part of life, which is exactly what Summer Solstice marks.

Stonehenge was built over 5,000 years ago and thousands of people to this present day go to celebrate the sun pouring in and hitting the heel stone.  This isn’t new, it’s deep, it’s the bones of ancestors and ancestors that make up part of the planet that you walk upon.  So let’s go play, celebrate the sun, celebrate the fire energy – burn anything away that no longer serves us and take a moment to put our feet on the earth, reach up to the sun and say YES!  Yes, i can love my life, yes – I believe in miracles, yes – I can show up as bright and shiny as the sun.  Whoot!  (Virtual High 5 is happening).  This morning I welcomed in the Solstice by hiking way up a mountain with my friend and our dogs and doing some yummy sun salutations on the top of a large mossy rock.  It was fantabulous!  

So I did this reading on our old, comfie picnic table.  I did it there as this table has seen a myriad of experiences and has sat in the midst of my garden for years upon end.  It’s old, it’s solid and it has witnessed births, deaths, friends sobbing, celebrations, egg painting, spiral walks in the snow, candles galore, planting, blossoming, reaping and connection.  It has witnessed so much and so many moments of huge connection that it felt like an appropriate place to create this reading.  The pieces that begged to come and play are two delicious pieces of Septarian and of course Selenite to amplify and purify.  The reading this week is done in a circle, like the sun and is a mix of two different decks.

With no more ado, let’s crack on as this is a BIG reading (see, I forewarned you!)  I invite you to stop for a moment, close your eyes down and breathe long and deep, in through your nose and out through your mouth.  Just breathe, feel your feet on the ground and gently raise your hands together in prayer pose in front of your heart.  Stay here for a moment and breathe into that space, release the impatience and the anxiety.  Then gently raise your hands up above your head and open them out so your arms are reaching up and welcoming in the sun.  Breathe.  Circle them down and take your hands back to prayer position.  Do this a few times whilst breathing long and deep and as you breathe, remind yourself “There are no time limitations to my spirit’s work, and therefore all that I do will come to fruition at exactly the right moment.”  Then, when you’re ready open your eyes and pick the cards that resonate for you on this glorious Solstice.

Ready to go see?

SEEING THE TRUE YOU

Sometimes we believe what others tell us we are, as though the self we see reflected back to us through their eyes is truth.  Yet the accuracy of a reflection depends on the clarity of that which is doing the reflecting!  You have been putting rather too much faith in the reflections others have of you – to the point that you might not be honouring all that you are and all that you are becoming, because you believe too little of yourself.

There may be those around you that are able to reflect you more faithfully, and even help you see more of your own greatness and beauty.  These are the souls blessed with inner stillness.  In the clear waters of their ocean of consciousness, you can come to recognise yourself with clearer perception.  However, there are those who have not tended to their own ocean, and are unable to be still enough to genuinely receive and reflect your light back to you.  Thus it’s time for you to begin to develop the art of direct perception.  This is the ability to recognise yourself with how you experience yourself and how your observe yourself  (with compassion and kindness) from within.  This is a step towards a radical empowerment that does not require perfection in order for you to recognise you are loveable and have much to offer.  It is empowerment based on the acceptance of all that you are, working with your strengths, tending to your weaknesses and being loving, encouraging and nurturing of all that you perceive.  

This is a breathtaking experience that opens you up to the creative energy that flows abundantly through all of life.  You must be strong within your own self love and acceptance to be able to hold acceptance for all of life!  You are being nudged into this preparation, for when you have the experience of truly beholding yourself, all judgement, fear and doubt will fall away and you will just know yourself to be sacred.  Don’t get confused about who you are and your motives or actions based on what others are saying or how they are responding to you, step back.  More often than not the reflections from others are more about the state of the reflector than what is being reflected.  Let those external perceptions go.  Can you just acknowledge yourself?  Do so and be free!

SWEETHEART

You’ve know violence in your life; maybe on the outside, maybe on the inside with a mind that has tortured you with fear, shame, darkness and doubt.  Enough of that now.  It is time for a gentler way – less pain, more gain.  No more torture.  It’s your time for sweets and treats.  

There is so much violence in the world, and in our own minds, that we can assume this is just the way of the world, that we have to accept it, deal with it, and thereby forget we have the right to question it and even change it, if we so choose.  Even the most ambitious desires for healing the world start with us as individuals.  We cannot bring more peace to the world if there is violence in our hearts.  Regrets, shaming judgements, fear of not being good enough, uncertainty and constant pushing to become more, to do more, to have more, can become the energetic equivalent of beating ourselves up every day.  This creates invisible bruises that never have time to heal because we don’t give ourselves the sweetness, kindness and compassion we need to break free from the abusive cycle.  

This cycle you are coming to is sweeter, one that is more loving, one that promises new life.  But you have to be willing to dispense with the violence, one step at a time.  You deserve to give yourself a gentler life journey.  Would you accept this for yourself?  If there are abusive or toxic relationships in your life, then you’ll need to do some relationship overhauling.  No matter how much the people involved may proclaim their love, if underneath it is unhealthy, if a relationship is holding you back rather than helping to lift you up, then reconsider its place in your life.  

You can’t taste the sweetness that life wants to bring to you if you are crammed full of stuff you don’t need or want anymore.  Create some space.  Ready yourself for receiving life’s nectar and believe in the power of your new beginning.  You are a true sweetheart of the universe.  Let yourself be treated accordingly.

RELEASING ALLEGIANCES

It is time to hold onto yourself and let go of another.  Even if just for a time.  You have gained all that was meant to be from that connection.  At least for now.  You have given and you have received.  The need to let go does not deny the value of what has been acquired, it is more that the time has come for greater productivity, creativity, abundance and consciousness in your life.  You have completed many cycles in the vibrational frequency of consciousness that you are now being asked to release.  It is now time to expand into higher frequencies of experience that will bring enhanced love, empowerment and peace into your life.  You will take the wisdom of what you have learned with you into something new – new connections, new relationships, new life experiences – at a higher turn of the spiral of life.  

Trust that you can step into solitude for a time without being consumed by loneliness.  It is time to reconnect with yourself.  This is a time for self-love, for paying attention to yourself, for nurturing, holding and being with you.  Back yourself!  You must be there for yourself because you are doing well, you are on the right path and you are growing.  Well done!

HER WICKED WAYS

You are meant to shine bright, to be a sun, even in the cold and dark depths of winter, bringing warmth to the world.  Some don’t like the light.  They want to freeze your enthusiasm, douse your creative fire and rain on your parade.  Don’t let them!  Shine your light with stubbornness and happiness.  Defeat the Snow Queen and her wicked ways.

The Snow Queen depicted on this car has her wicked ways.  She likes to test those that aren’t yet sure of their worth.  She will try to freeze you with a glance that conveys criticism, judgement, ridicule.  She’ll make you believe that you’ll be humiliated, that it’s inevitable you’ll fail and so it’s better that you just don’t try to begin with.  She’ll plant seeds of doubt like a weed in your soul garden, and cause you to lose energy to mental anguish.  You’ll find the way of your life more difficult than it needs to be if you don’t take heed of what is happening and use your power to stand up to her.  

Whether she arises through a loved one who cannot support you, or a colleague who is envious of you and wants to see you fall, or the voice in your head that is afraid and is yet to really trust your heart to lead you.  There is only one way to deal with her.  You must stand up tall and true and reply “I am me!  Save your soul-slaying, doubt-making for another day.  If you stay anywhere near me, I’ll melt you with my creative fire and the warmth of my love.  So be gone, it’s time for you to move on!!!!”

FOCUS ON THE LIGHT

A tremendous force of light is gathering around you.  It is attracted to the purity of your intention to create from your heart.  As your intention grows, so does the light.  As the light grows, so does your intention.  Magic wants to happen for you now!  The synchronicity, perfect timing, opportunities and information that are needed will seem to be drawn right to your door.  You may start to feel as if you cannot walk outside without stumbling into something helpful, wonderful and inspiring.  

It is best to stay focused on your heart and intentions.  Just allow all else to happen of its own accord, without making it mean anything too personal.  Simply let it be the workings of the great light of love, flowing through a  pure heart and touching the world.  Even if the light that is drawn to you and flows through you has some dazzling effects, you don’t have to get caught up in it.  

Don’t be distracted by other paths around you at this time as you are too close to succeeding on the one you are on now!  Diluting your energies, in the pursuit of too much will slow down your success and the world needs your light to shine sooner rather than later!  In time you may diversity and explore other ways to express yourself but for now, build what you are working on and know that success is coming swiftly.  

THE JUGGLER

Many projects in the air; aspirations and inspirations everywhere.  Action to take, commitments to make and yet another will soon join the fray!  Say yes, do not delay.  It will all work out in the perfect way.

You are capable of many things and you are too important an asset to the plan of love on this planet to be left idle.  So life, the universe and your own creative urges will ask a lot of you.  There will be many inspirations, ideas and dreams that you will yearn to bring to life in the world.  You might wonder if it’s all a bit too much for any one person to handle.  You might feel you are juggling so much already that if even one more demand or idea comes through, you’ll drop the balls already in the air, and the whole damn thing will come undone!

The Juggler is the master multi-tasker.  He brings the skills wisdom and tricks you need to not only successfully bring to life all your current dreams and ideals, but to be open to even more flowing through you.  If you feel overwhelmed, you are letting yourself get ahead of yourself, allowing your mind to move too far into the future.  Bring it back to now, to just what can be done now.  Let tomorrow take care of itself.  Prioritise, what do you need to do most today, and what can be left until later?  Remember to ask for help and remember that your individual success is actually part of the greater group success.  The universe wants you to succeed.  It will keep an eye on the pots on the boil whilst you stir the one that is bubbling over now.  You are going to manage all that is going on in your life if you remember to stay present and relax, deal with what is immediately happening and not worry about any other distractions.  You’ll not only handle all that’s currently going on, but when another opportunity heads your way, you’ll add it to the mix with grace!

EVERY JOURNEY STARTS WITH A SINGLE STEP

You are on a journey.  Yes, it is an internal journey but there is also a physical expression of this journey that is going to become increasingly important to the fulfilment of your destiny in this lifetime.  Your journey has started on the inside but its destination will be the physical expression of an internal healing.  This journey will draw upon what you have learned and mastered over the course of your life – so much so, that you may feel as though your life experiences have prepared you just for this particular adventure.

You have all that you need within you.  This is not a time to worry about what you are going to take with you.  From within your heart, you will sense what needs to come along for the ride and what is best left behind you now.  You may be surprised at exactly how much can be left behind without you feeling concerned or anxious. You will be able to travel far lighter than you ever imagined possible.  To be best equipped for this journey, you will need a lightness of heart and the realisation that change can be an incredible blessing, even if what you are leaving   behind is something you found secure, safe, familiar or comforting.  Just as the butterfly leaves the chrysalis behind when it is time to spread its newly formed wings, so too are you ready to leave behind what once was and embrace what is more appropriate for you at this time.

The apparently small steps you are taking in an area of your life, important to you right now, are actually far more powerful and constructive than you realise.  Sometimes we are gaining ground but the effect is not immediately obvious.  This doesn’t mean that nothing is happening.  It simply means that the effects of your actions are cumulative and soon they will begin to overflow into the physical world with a positive impact that my surprise you.  Your inner and outer journeys are blessed with positive energy and all you need to do is keep going – one step at a time.

THE VELVET QUEEN

A rare prize is to be bestowed upon you.  The universe is confirming that the most luscious dreams of your heart are being nurtured into manifestation.  To this end, you shall be given a saving grace, an intervention if needs be.  To be open to receive, surrender doubt in favour of unconditional trust.  Through your trust and optimism, you make it easier for the universe to give you a most deserved gift.  A rare prize is worth the effort to attain it.  Your efforts will need to include loving discipline.  Loving discipline is not about trying to bend the world according to your will but rather about readying yourself to align with the spirit of what you want to receive.

To receive, rather than attempt to take by force, requires strength, trust, spiritual intelligence and courage.  It is easier to try and force things from a fearful place, but it is more effective and empowering to learn how to attract and receive through consciously chosen surrender.  This allows the universe to do its best work for you!  So it’s time to change your consciousness.  Release issues around self-worth.  Why should you not be empowered and assisted by the universe to create a life that fills you with joy and feels ‘just right’ for you?  Of course you should, can will be!  Release any lack of self-worth that would get in the way of your opening in complete trust to the universe.

Your most prized dream is within reach, through a combination of letting life unfold as it will and your own disciplined efforts.  Don’t give up.  You cannot make the fruit on the tree grow faster – that will happen according to the rhythm of life – but you can certainly do your part to be ready to climb the tree at the right moment to savour the sweetness of success!

So on this delicious Summer Solstice, I wish for you the ability to see how glorious and magnificent you are.  You are like a gorgeous mini sun moving in this world and we most certainly need that!  So take some time to put your feet on the earth, raise your arms to the sky and say to yourself “I AM, I AM!”  (Oh yes and light a fire, or a candle or do something to acknowledge the day, the season and yourself.)  Huge hugs and see you on Monday!

This is a power moon for identity shifts, alignment activations, and jumping into the version of you that you are meant to be. 

You don’t need a ritual.

You need to remember who you are.

This Full Moon in Sagittarius is pointing the arrow to where you are meant to move towards.

Are you willing?

One year today at 1:13 pm my Mum took her last bre One year today at 1:13 pm my Mum took her last breath. 

The game that she always wanted to play with everyone was Boggle, as she loved words. 

She would often cheat and try to plausibly pass off a word. 

Thus, one of the ways I’ve honoured her today on the first deathaversary was to make hourglasses filled with some of her ashes and glitter. 

One for each of the grandchildren so she can always participate in games. 

Remember that the only guarantee you have is today. 

So please love like a mother trucker, apologise, do the things you want to and celebrate every breath.

Happy Magickal, Manifesting first Monday of June! Happy Magickal, Manifesting first Monday of June!

As we mov toward the peak of the year - the vibrant, radiant energy of the Summer Solstice - there’s a powerful moment of pause available to us. 

The Solstice asks us to stop, to witness ourselves, and to honour the journey we’ve walked so far this year. 

Ready to come play?

I love this quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald. It c I love this quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald. 

It conjures about that Magickal feeling for me of openness, fairies and wonder. 

Wishing you a glorious June!

I don’t worry so much about people “liking or I don’t worry so much about people “liking or approving” of me. 

But if I met a doggo that didn’t like me that would pull me up short!

My doggos like most people, but when they don’t, I pay attention as they sense things I don’t.
