Forgiveness

May is here, New Moon is coming and it’s the energy of Re-Aligning.

Happy magnificent, magikal Monday! Welcome to May, did you get an opportunity to celebrate Beltane? I most certainly did with a tree blessing ceremony and a little spell casting (which was quite delicious.)

With the onset of May we see the energy shifting. If you remember March was Creative Adaptability, April was Mindfulness, Patience and Balance. May is all about Re-Aligning Values. So in a nutshell “This month provides many opportunities for you to re-align your values and re-evaluate your priorities. You may be triggered and shaken up along the way because of some inner personal crisis, intense global event or sudden change. Use this as an opportunity to reshape the way you live your life instead of feeling victimized or despairing about the situation.” If you would like to explore this more, I highly suggest checking out Lena Stevens (an amazing Shaman), where she delves into this more on a personal, relationship and spiritual level.

This past weekend I gave myself permission to really unhook from most media, my phone, other people’s dramas and instead spent almost the whole weekend pottering in the garden. Sitting and watching the squirrels and playing in the woods with the hounds (whilst being exceptionally bear aware as I encountered 2 last week). It was so refreshing and revitalising and it was fascinating to watch how some people in my world responded to me not being on call 24×7. One person must have sent me about 30 texts and multiple Messenger notices as well. Quite mind blowing.

Oh yes, I also tried something new this weekend! I love to write, serve, help, support, inspire and all the rest of it – but video and that “being seen” certainly brings up old shit and uncomfie bugaboos. However, I am very blessed as I belong to an amazing group called The Vibe Tribe, facilitated by the wonderful Carolyn Michelman; in this group we have been making our way through the book “Raise Your Vibration” by Kyle Grey. It’s a great book for really helping you have a daily spiritual practice that is easy and manageable, as there is a Vibe for each day. Well within the group I have watched so many of the amazing members step up and share the Vibe for the day using FB Live. Gulp! So finally I decided it was time to pull on my big girl panties, remind myself that I was in a very safe and supportive environment and just frigging do it! So I did! On Sunday I did my first ever FB Live and I didn’t self implode, no lightning bolts fell from the sky and I had so much fun. So I busted through a limiting belief and a fear about visibility which felt sooooo amazing to do. So who knows maybe this FB Live might become part of the way I communicate with the world. We shall have to see.

As we head into the reading I invite you to think of one limiting belief or fear (and it doesn’t have to be huge), that if you could release it and send it on its merry way would have a positive impact on your life or business. Ready to work with that?

The deck that was like the chatty squirrel and nattered and nattered to come share this week is The Sacred Rebels Oracle. Remember this is the deck “for those who aren’t afraid to rattle cages, ruffle feathers and rock boats, from a place of loving service to the spiritual evolution of humanity.” (I mean seriously if we are pondering a fear or limiting belief, how perfect is that?) The crystals that had been having a gorgeous sun bath and wanted to come support are:- Bloodstone, a gorgeous Geode and Fire Agate.

Let’s take a big glorious belly breath in and allow ourselves to just stop for a moment and just BE. Sigh the breath out through your mouth and give your shoulders a little roll and wiggle. As you breathe in deeply really feel yourself in your body and if you feel inclined bring to mind a limiting belief or fear that you would like to release and when you feel ready. Pick the card or cards that resonate for you and then let’s go see what you need to pay attention to this week. Enjoy!

You remembered to pick, right?

Ready to go see?

DREAM A BEAUTIFUL DREAM

The urge to create is the same within you as it is for the universal creator. It also has the same magical ability to draw harmony into being to find beautiful order in chaos. This includes bringing harmony and the perfect balance of well being into your body, mind and emotions.

If you feel blocked, thwarted or contaminated by others in your quest to bring your beautiful dreams to life, you may feel that your heart is dulled, minimised or shut down. Small mindedness can limit beauty to very narrow, physical sense. However, you can shun the social disease of superficial, narrow definitions of beauty, thumb your nose at air-brushed images and dare to love what is. Give yourself permission to feel and be beautiful in many ways.

There is a situation in your life right now where you feel uncertain about your ability to “fix” or heal. You may feel inhibited in your ability to bring about constructive change. However, the perfect beauty of this situation is not revealed by what you attempt to do to it, or by trying to impose on it. There is a beauty in it and by that revelation it is healed and perfected.

In opening up to the beauty within yourself and your circumstances, you open up to change. You can overcome resistance and denial by approaching it with a curious mind, an open heart and acknowledging the hidden beauty. You have the power to be a positive influence in whatever situation holds the most meaning for you right now, and you need to know that.

THE WORD WANTS TO BE WRITTEN

You might have been taught that creativity is something you have to work hard to access, or that finding your life purpose is so difficult that you must search high and low for it. Or creating a living doing what you love is impossible.

Yet what you are is within you and wants to come out at every available opportunity. You don’t have to struggle so much. It is more about allowing space for it to manifest and to let the energy flow. The effort is in getting out of the way, not in making something happen. As for being yourself, that is the foundation from which your life path and joy will reveal itself. Being yourself becomes easier when you give yourself permission to love, honour and accept yourself in all circumstances, especially the ones where you might be more tempted to reject and judge.

What you are dreaming of or seek to manifest, is actually very natural for you. That is why you want to do it. Now it is about chipping away at the walls of shame, perhaps with a defiant “Who the hell cares, I am here and I am going to love myself anyway.” Release old emotional wounds and break away from any restraints to unconditional self-love.

What you want to write, sing, dance, create or become is you. It is natural. Drop your defences, get into the grit and confront the power than any old shaming has had over you. It’s finished now. It is time for you to be naked with yourself, acknowledge how gorgeous you are and get on with your work. Life is urging you to do so, because the work wants to happen. What you want to create, wants to be created. Step firmly over any remnants of the past that have been in your way and stay on your path.

SHOCK OF THE NEW

What wild unconventional voice is calling to you? Can you hear it? It is so different so unusual, it might be hard to decipher – like hearing an unfamiliar language for the first time. It might be hard to discern with great clarity now but there is an affinity between you and this strangely beautiful newness seeking to manifest.

There is a stirring at the deepest level within you. Something new will break through and the process of this birth may be a shock to you. The shock will transform into great joy and a sense of tremendous liberation, but you must bear the strangeness first. That strangeness might be something that rattles your beliefs about yourself and your world, daring you to become more of yourself, more open to where life is leading you and more willing to be the unique sacred art being crafted by the hand of the universal creator. This is life creating the stage upon which you will experience greater fulfilment. Don’t reject it, no matter how small or insignificant, or how powerful and life-changing it may seem to be.

You are being asked to dispense with your reliance on the past and what have been your tools to navigate life. You have outgrown your old methods. You will have to fly by the seat of your pants, so to speak, as you experiment with new ways to be. Life will show you the way.

Well delicious lovely that was quite a divine reading and it most certainly ties in with the energy of this month of Re-Aligning Your Values. What values do you feel you might need to give a little tweak to? Wishing you a stupendous week filled with sunbeams, faeries, laughter galore and big hugs (remember 10 hugs a day is the minimum)! See you next week.

It’s time for Peace and juggling Mercury Retrograde! – Weekly Reading December 11th.

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy delicious, divine, marvelous magical Monday! How are you? How is Mercury Retrograde working for you this time round? Personally, my oven blew up, the printer stopped working, the power went out for hours and I had to get a new phone lolol. It so makes me chuckle as all of these things happened when I felt “stressed for time” and that “it had to be a certain way”, ahhh yes, well the glorious Divine had a different message such as – slow down, be present and remember to laugh, trust and breathe, feel the peace. Which I most certainly did (and laughed at it all as well). How was the last week for you – working with the tenet of Hope? This week we are working with the energy of Peace.

The other day I noticed a sign in town that was counting the days down to Xmas – it read something like “Only 18 more shopping days until Xmas.” Really? That’s what Xmas is about, shopping? Hmmm, didn’t work for me and I was a tad grumpy that there was no sign that said “Only 14 days left to Solstice and then the days start getting longer!” Ah well, we each do it our own way, but I have noticed people getting more tense, shorter fused and most certainly not smiling as much and that to me is not celebration, that feels like obligation. This is a time of connection, this is a time of celebration and creating memories (as is every day in my world). A time of Hope and Peace.

I had an interesting experience the other week I would like to share with you. I was happily sitting and writing away in my own little bubble and there was a huge WHOMPH of energy that came flooding in through my feet, down through my head and whirled like a mad thing around my body with a very clear message – What about those who need a little bit of help and extra TLC? WTF? So I sat with it for a little bit (although the temptation to bolt and run was high) and images of little people and Xmas, people cold and alone, single parents looking feeling despair and less than as they look at what they have and wonder how on earth they can even fake a Christmas dinner, pay the rent and buy a gift for each of their kids. I cried! I mean I cried a full body, holy hannah fat tears dripping onto the paper kinda cry as this had hit a really personal chord, but that’s a story for another day. I will be honest, I kept trying to pretend that this whole scenario hadn’t happened, as after all I was too busy to do anything about it, and came up with every frigging excuse under the sun. Yeah, let me tell you – don’t even attempt to run from messages from the Divine, she comes and finds you, even if you are hiding in the bottom of the closet under a pile of coats!

What ended up happening was I contacted the elementary schools and asked if they knew of any small people who might need a little TLC and support this Xmas and also if they knew of any families that might need help. I contacted the homeless shelter and asked them what they needed and blankets was the resounding answer. Within a week I had been advised of two families that could really do with a loving hand and 60 little people from 4 – 12 that could do with some TLC. So I talked to an organisation that I love and work with – The Royal Canadian Legion and they stepped up loud and proud and are doing a blanket drive and creating two amazing hampers of food, gifts and certificates for the two families. Then I threw it out on Facebook to my community to see who could help with all these little people as we only have 2 weeks and I wanted to see who was willing to be a glorious, gorgeous Secret Santa. Quite a few people in the community stepped up and were assigned a small person to get a gift for, but what gob smacked me was the support from people in different areas of the world, France, Southern US, Vancouver. Thus, as of this moment we have 35 out of the 60 little people covered with a cool gift, all wrapped and ready for them come Xmas morning. Which to me is frigging cool. So on those days when you think you are alone or don’t matter, trust me, you most certainly do. This reminder gives me that beautiful sense of peace and trust and massive joy. Each of us can make a difference, it doesn’t have to be massive and lavish, it can be heartfelt, loving and little.

Okay, so keeping with the energy of the shorter and shorter days and coming to the place on Solstice of being willing to step into the dark to bring your light beaming bright out into the world – The Divine Circus Oracle stepped up loud and proud! Now, if you have never worked with this glorious Oracle deck, this deck is for those who find it hard to follow rules, conform, bend to authority and generally do what they are told. May your rebel heart always be bold. Interesting to see the glorious crystals that wanted to come share their energy today. We have Septarian – a shamanic healing stone, Smoky Quartz – Grounding and protects from negative energies and last but not least Shungite – a glorious purifier and transformation crystal. Let’s go play with the energy of Peace this week and a little more into the dark, it’s safe – honest.

So gorgeous one, get anchored and grounded by breathing long and deep in through your nose and out through your mouth. If you need a little help with tapping into the energy of Peace that we are working with this week there is a little visualisation to help. Otherwise, just breathe and drop into your body. You are safe, you are loved, you are Peace. Ready?

Let’s go pick, shall we?

Take another glorious breathe and feel it fill you from top to toe and then let’s go see, yes?

DARK HARLEQUIN

Bells are ringing from deep inside. Something that once had to hide is seeking your attention. It want out! It wants to be free! As you release what was once shut away, your discomfort shall turn to glee. You are a spiritual adventurer! You are not afraid to go to the edge of what you know, of who you have believed yourself to be. Even when before you there lies the darkness of unknown worlds, of undiscovered parts of you, even when you feel uncertainty, discomfort or doubt, you are still willing to figure out what it’s all about,

So you’ve come to a place in you, and in your life, where you don’t know. You don’t know what’s happening. You don’t know how to work through it. You don’t know who you are (well, not all of who you are). You don’t know what you don’t know. You are at the point of not knowing because you are growing. There will be surprises. There will be discoveries. You’ll feel awkward at times, like you are trying to see in the dark.

Don’t be afraid to let there be some inner rattling and rampaging. You are at a time when you are naturally diving into the darkness for a healing purpose. So ask the difficult questions. Do things you wouldn’t normally do. Experiment with thinking in ways you wouldn’t normally think. Be willing to let everything change for the better by first letting go of how things are now. The messier your inner world seems to be right now, the more you can expect complete and utter transformation as a new order comes into form. Expect the unexpected, for you were born to grow into what is happening now. It’s time to let the wild thing out!

NEBULA WARRIOR

There are advocates for love on this earth, those that are passionate defenders of the freedom for all beings to grow and fulfil their divine destiny. These warriors for the soul know they can either use darkness to serve the growth of the light, or allow it to consume their sense of hope, trust and faith in the right outworking of the destiny of all living things. You are being initiated in the ways of working with darkness constructively, to become a soul warrior with all living beings.

Some things in life are worth fighting for – but how do you fight with love? How do you fight without becoming bitter, hateful, tired, disconnected from the whole reason you needed to fight in the first place? To be a warrior for love and the soul, you have to be smart. You have to know how to fight without fighting, how to use the natural darkness on this planet as a way to birth a new consciousness that is unafraid. Nebula Warrior isn’t afraid of the dark. She isn’t interested in the rules of war established by fear-loving minds. She creates her own rules, not based on what people want her to believe, but based on what works to keep her free and liberate the minds and hearts of all beings.

She comes to you now because whatever situation needs healing in your life, or in the world, you have the power to bring it about. If you go for the goal directly, trying to force a change, you will be putting your considerable energy into pursuit and unintentionally set up resistance and repulsion. Guiding rather than forcing the solution to come into being , is a more effective use of your power. Do what you can do, each day. If you cannot do something you want to do, ask for help from the universe and then let it go. When you need rest, take it. You are a warrior of love and you will win any and every war, through cool compassion and smart, simple strategy.

DIVINE DISGUISE

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

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

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

How did that feel? Remember to give yourself moments every day where you just drop into the lotus flower in your heart and breathe in Peace and release “Shoulds”. Breathe, Receive and Allow. You’ve got this! Wishing you a fantabulous week and next week we explore Joy!

It’s Post New Moon in Scorpio – Weekly Reading November 20th.

Jenny Heston · 2:30 pm ·

It’s Monday, it’s Monday – fa, la, la (Trust me, I’m singing out loud!) Remember we are re-framing Monday and making it magickal, mystical, marvelous, meditative and absolutely magnificent! Gone are the days of “Oh F#@$#K it’s Monday!” So delicious one, how are you this most magnificent Monday? Did you take a bit of time on Saturday to play with the deep watery, emotional energy of the New Moon in Scorpio? Did you make your New Moon wishes? I had the joy of a window of time and going outside, lighting a fire, smudging and writing my New Moon wishes and have to say it was really, really good. As I was focusing on my writing I hear a rustle in the plants nearby and then another and as I look up there is a lovely skunk gently pushing through the plants and exploring. She stopped for a moment, looked me up and down and then gently went on her way (thank goodness).

To all our American friends Thanksgiving is coming up this week and I hope you take time to just BE, Play, be Thankful and Feel. For some people family holiday celebrations can trigger all sorts of stuff, some great and some rather challenging. So remember to take the energy of the New Moon and be clear about how you feel and what is okay for you. I have to ask what’s with the Black Friday Sale thing? I appreciate a good deal, but I went once to a store in the states on Black Friday and it was insane! People were pushing, shoving, being rude all for $100 off of an item they wanted. Totally terrified me and have never gone to a Black Friday sale in person again. With that being said I do wish you all a marvelous Thanksgiving filled with family, gorgeous food, connection, joy and big laughter.

I have had the luxury and the time this weekend to spend a lot of time playing outdoors in the woods, finding random paths and exploring. The snow that we did receive the other week has thankfully vanished and so as long as my elevation isn’t too high there are still glorious places to go play. To me this is “Green Therapy”, to get out for a couple of hours with no idea where the path will lead and just breathing in the crisp air, watching small little animals bustle about their business, random dens, abandoned nests and walking along huge trees that fell down years ago and are now covered in lush green moss. Aaaaahhhhhhh.

So it was no surprise to me that the glorious Oracle of the Wild Green World – The Faery Forest came to play. Love this deck for the magickal and insightful look at what we need. When you look at the cards, can you see the witch, the blackcat and the elven character? The crystals that were adamant they had to play are Smoky Quartz, Aragonite star cluster and Snowflake Black Obsidian. Smoky Quartz is a the aspirin of your crystal healing first aid kit, great for grounding, protection and soothing pain, both emotional and physical, it’s a crown chakra stone. Aragonite Star Clusters facilitate the release of negative energy, anger, anxiety and fear from the body. They radiate energy outwards in all directions, beaming rays of light and love out in all directions, Last but not least is Snowflake Black Obsidian this one is a stone of purity. It balances mind body and spirit. Placed on the sacral chakra, snowflake obsidian will calm and soothe and allow you to view unhealthy patterns in your own behaviour, thus opening the door to change.

So let’s take a moment and just stop, ignore the phone, back away from the day to day and just breathe. Breathe long and slow in through your nose and out through your mouth and as you breathe give your fingers a little wiggle and your toes. Feel the energy flow from above your head down through your body and out through your feet down deep into the womb of the earth. Then feel that healing, nurturing energy flow up through your feet and out through the top of your head to connect with Spirit, Divine and flow back down. Just breathe and let the energy pulse through you, cleansing you, healing you and wrapping you in a gorgeous blanket of Divine Love. Breathe and when you are ready give your body a little wiggle and pick the card or cards that are calling to you this week.

Ready to go see?

FAERY GODMOTHER

When the Faery Godmother comes to you, be aware that this is time when you will discover what has been long hidden to you – your true self will be revealed in surprising ways every day, and sudden moments of heightened perception will make this time especially significant for you. People finally get found out, manipulators can be seen through, true costs of circumstances are revealed, and any lies about you will be seen. This can be hard, but it is truly a hardship that is born of protection – you are safer for knowing in whom you can trust in order to make the right choices for your soul.

Throughout these revelations and insights will be a guiding hand – and this is the Faery Godmother. She is showing you what it is you need to know in order to create and foster life that works for you – and she is a protective force too. So what you need will come to you now, sometimes in very strange ways. Be mindful of counting your blessings at this time – for this is the energy your Faery Godmother can draw upon to keep transforming your life into one which is more abundant, magickal, meaningful, and joyful.

Note every moment of truth – they are all significant, and you are better for discovering what was once hidden from you.

QUEEN OF THE DARKWOOD ELVES

Sometimes there is a stirring, a shimmering movement, subtle but unmistakable, in the web called wyrd that connects us all. This is one such time. The Queen of the Darkwood Elves has come forth to speak with you and ask you to be aware that something is approaching. When she appears, there is a kind of foreboding and unsettled energy, akin to when a storm is gathering its power. There is a very potent force readying itself in your life, and while its impact is yet to be truly felt and experienced, it is best to ready yourself now.

So, when this card comes, make good your defences. Tend to injuries and wounds, be they psychic, mental, or physical. Take care of unfinished business, and bring in whatever you can – gather up resources and be ready for when the moment strikes and descends upon you. Because something that was unexpected could have harmed you, could have taken you unaware – but now you are forewarned, and truth be told you are now forearmed.

There is no cause to be scared, frightened, or anxious – this card indicates that you have time to prepare, grow stronger, and meet whatever it is that is coming, face on. You will move through the time you are now warned of, and you will be even stronger due to the challenge. But make no mistake – there is a challenge coming, and you can now prepare to minimise its impact and ride out the intense wave of energy it brings into your life.

OTHERWORLD

This is a time when you are passing through a veil that separates the worlds. When once all was clear and life felt stable and grounded, for now, there is a shaking of the firmament and a shift in your reality that makes you feel at times as though you are living in a waking dream. What once seemed solid is no longer to be relied upon, and throughout this time, you may be suffering ailments of the physical self.

This is a time when the thin boundaries between the worlds have dissolved for you, and there is a raw and unfamiliar energy to your world. When this take place, we can sometimes fall ill, suffer from a great loss of vital energy, and begin to feel we lose a connection with our minds that is strong. We can suffer, and in that suffering, we can begin to forget who we once were. And that, in some ways, is the purpose of this time.

You are now a walker between the worlds, and this time of being apart from the reality others seem to dwell within is going to bring you to greater wisdom, knowledge, compassion, and insights. This time will serve its purpose, and is the breakthrough that your soul requires for the next stage of their journey. But for your humanity, this is challenging indeed. Ask yourself, how can this create meaning and depth within my life, when I return to my own reality? And how can this experience be used to serve others, the planet, and the magickal world? That will give you great strength, even while you experience the shadowlands of the worlds between the worlds.

Holy Hannah, have to say – wow. The cards pick themselves, the crystals pick themselves and all of them tie in together. Some days I look at a crystal and think – really? Then I trust the guidance that comes and I take my ego out of the way and yes, Spirit knows far better than I. I love that the cards also reflect the energy of the New Moon in Scorpio which is dig deeper, trusting and being willing to walk between the worlds. So delicious one, I wish you an amazing week and if you are in the US – Happy Thanksgiving and next Monday there won’t be a reading as we are having a retreat planning time. However, I will be back the following Monday. Take care, drink water and keep your toes warm. Light a candle in your home and if you feel inclined as you light it set the intention of “hearth and home are holy and happy”. Huge hugs!

Twas the Night before Halloween and Samhain – Weekly Reading October 30th.

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Twas the night before Halloween and all through the house, costumes were being sewn – there was even a mouse! The ghosties and ghoulies were hung with great care, with the hope that they would give someone a great scare! The pumpkins were nestled all tight in the garden beds, with little tea candles shedding light in their heads.

I love Halloween! The pumpkin carving, the costumes, making taffy and seeing all the little ones so wiggly excited as they holler at the door “Trick or Treat”. I used to be terrified as a child that someone was going to say “Trick” and make me sing, or recite a poem or something equally daft (hey I was 7) instead of just handing over handfuls of sweeties! With my kids I have always had a “mummy tithe”, in other words when we would get home from trick or treating we would go through all the sweeties and make sure they were fine and dandy, sort them into piles (not my idea but my youngest ones) and then count them. So if one of the boys had 100 sweeties, the tithe amount was 10, thus 10%. Now do the math, I have 5 kids! Yes, that’s right I would get a motherlode of all my favourite things, little mini smarties, kitkats, mars bars and Aeros. Nom, nom, nom. It would last me all year, unless the kids found where I had hidden them.

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.

Now people can get rather tweaked when we talk about death, but if we look to Nature that is what is happening in the Northern Hemisphere. The trees are releasing their leaves and going into a more dormant state, the ground is getting colder and harder, and we are starting to turn inward. As we turn inward there is often a reflecting process as to what is working for us and what isn’t. To me (as someone who used to get tweaked about the word Death), it’s just a release, a release of an idea, a habit, a belief etc.

There are many glorious celebrations and rituals that you can do to celebrate and honour Samhain.

Go for a nature walk – celebrate the cycles of life that nature shows us.

Make an ancestor altar – Gather photographs, heirlooms, and other mementos of deceased family, friends, and companion creatures. Arrange them on a table, dresser, or other surface, along with several votive candles. Kindle the candles in their memory as you call out their names and express well wishes. Thank them for being part of your life.

Renovate (yes I said that) – Select an area of your home or life as a focus. Examine it. Re-organize it. Release what is no longer needed. Create a better pattern. Celebrate renewal and transformation.

Bonfire Magic. Kindle a bonfire outdoors when possible or kindle flames in a fireplace or a small cauldron. Write down an outmoded habit that you wish to end and cast it into the Samhain flames as you imagine release. Imagine yourself adopting a new, healthier way of being as you move around the fire clockwise.

Now with Halloween and Samhain burbling in your mind let’s crack on with the reading. It seemed very appropriate to do it outside on a bed of leaves and instead of glorious polished crystals, we have glorious rocks that I have gathered as I explore (after all they are crystals in the rough). Divine Circus was the hands down, have to come and play, deck of Oracle Cards that wanted to come work with you this week. Which I feel is really appropriate!

Let’s take a moment and just breathe, come back into your body, breathe in through your nose and sigh it out through your mouth. See a glorious stream of golden light funneling down through your head as you breath in and as you exhale see it whoosh out through your heart. When you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Shall we go see?

RED COUNTESS

Deep within, you know what is true and what to do (or not do). Yet there is so much noise and distraction in the world, and even at times in our own minds, that listening for our inner wisdom can seem like trying to hear gentle birdsong in the midst of a rock concert. Even so, you are hearing an inner truth, and deep down, you know it. Can you trust that it is safe to not only hear your inner voice but act on it too?

There is something that you know. You’ve felt, sensed, heard or realised this truth more than once. Even if others see or feel differently, you just know what you know, even if you don’t quite know how you know it!

Give your truths value. Hold your feelings and insights in high enough esteem to pay attention to them, to give yourself time to process what you think, feel and sense. Know that they’re worth acting on, even if that action just means to trust more and stop worrying.

SUPERNOVA

Something in you needs to be unleashed. This is not quiet and steady growth, but more like a wild explosion of creative energy and sacred fire. The sparks your rapid growth will create shall ignite your body, mind and soul, inspiring you to expand even beyond what you believe is possible. Your light will shine far and wide. You cannot control it, but you can trust it.

A rocket is capable of travelling far and with great power and speed, before settling into an effortless orbit far beyond the world in which it began its journey. To launch, however, requires power. A quiet and continued power is not appropriate for the task. A raw and explosive force is needed to propel the rocket from the known world of earth towards its destined orbit in space. You are in a time or rapid growth so accelerated and powerful that it can feel like an explosion, as if you were the rocket being launched into space. It tends to be of high intensity but short duration.

As a rocket moves from the dramatic force of the launch towards the eventual peace of an effortless orbit, the rocket will jettison the very thing needed to get the journey started. This is about letting go of old attitudes, ideas, ways of being and attachments, to allow for utter freedom to ascend. After the launch there is another birth of sorts: the settling into a new pattern of life at a higher altitude, with more peace, effortlessness and consciousness. Each phase happens naturally and you’ll feel when and how to respond to each phase in your life as you trust yourself.

CROWN OF THE BUTTERFLY BAMBINI

Just as nature imbues the butterfly with an innate ability for radical transformation, so too do you have natural instincts within, guiding you to grow in dramatic, utterly life-changing ways. Progress is your perfection. Growth is your attainment. Do you shun what you have been or mistakes you have made? Or instead, do you wear your ability for transformation as a sacred crown of power?

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

It requires both strength and flexibility, to be like bamboo, to bend without breaking. Are you willing to let go of what you have known, who you have been, without judging it, except to understand that you are outgrowing your past and becoming your future in this very moment? This takes great courage whilst flexibility of mind allows you to believe there are other possibilities in this life beyond what you have already experienced. The strength gives you enough courage to bear the loss of the known and the terror of the unknown, perhaps even turning that terror into excitement for what may be.

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

Wishing you a spooktacular Halloween, a delicious Samhain and don’t eat too many of those tiny little choccie bars (though they are super tempting)! Have a fantabulous week and remember to laugh often and be gentle with your glorious self! See you next week.

Let’s Re-frame Monday, Shall We? Weekly Reading October 23rd.

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, happy marvellous, manifesting, magical Monday! Let’s talk about Monday shall we? I have encountered, talked to and listened to sooo many people in the last month who have the “Fuck I hate Monday” attitude. When I ask why they look at me as if I missed the memo “Duh, everyone hates Monday, it’s Monday!” This response causes me to shake my head, roll my eyes and sigh. It’s a day, it’s the same as the day before and the next one to come, it’s 24 hours in your life, just because it happens to be called Monday shouldn’t earn it a bad rap. I actually had someone sing me the old Boomtown Rats song “I don’t like Monday’s”. (He did it quite well all considered).

I appreciate for some people they hate what they are doing and so Monday seems to toll the bell of – urrgghhhh, back to the 9-5. But let’s take a moment and look at this – if what we focus on expands and if we manage our thoughts it can change our reality – why on God’s green earth would you want to pump that level of negative blaugh? What if we reframed it and Monday became – Marvelous Monday, Manifesting Monday, Magical Monday, Mesmerising Monday? (Can you think of some other ones?) I guess my challenge to you is to reframe Monday and what it brings, instead of looking at this poor day as the bringer of bad news, let’s look at it as a fabulous day to create, manifest, experience miracles, mindset shifts and huge surges of mojo! Who’s with me? I challenge you to look at the next 6 Mondays this way and share that energy with others (as it’s quite contagious!)

So with that being said let’s go celebrate this magnificent Monday in style! The cards that wiggled and jiggled and jumped up and down to come share and play with you are the gorgeous Oracle of the Dragonfae. Interestingly, the crystals that did their uber sparkle and wiggle are Amethyst and Citrine, both amazing healing stones and absolutely delicious and delightful for manifestation. Citrine has the nickname of “The Merchants Stone”, as it’s most certainly involved with money, manifestation and marvellousness! The gorgeous Autumn leaves most certainly wanted to show off their deep reds and golds, so along they came.

I invite you to take a moment and just wiggle your fingers and toes, get your back nice and straight and slightly tuck your chin as if you are holding a grapefruit there. Breathe in long and slow through your nose and then let it sigh out through your mouth as you give a cheeky smirk. Repeat for as long or as many times as you want to and when you feel ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Shall we go see who wants to come play with you this week?

HIDEKI’S DOOR

I know you wish to reach out, and yet you hold back. I know you feel drawn to knock on this door and to see whether it will be answered this time…and yet you fear so much. You fear that it will not be answered…that the answer or the face that appears beyond the door will not be to your liking…that if you enter, you may never return… I cannot put your fears to rest, for only you can do that. But I can tell you what I see. I see a spirit whose flame has flickered low,, whose light is in danger of going out if it does not take the next step. For years you have passed this door and many times you have found yourself here. You may even have knocked at the door, only to flee, like a terrified child, before the door was opened to you.

I say to you now: it is time. Reach out. Knock at the door. And let what will be, be.

Nervous about a new chance…feeling as though your comfort zone is far better than the unknown; longing to travel and to change, yet unwilling to do anything about it; procrastinations and old habits keeping you from reaching out and accepting what is being offered. You are ready…it is simply nerves that are holding you back, conditioned fears and internalised voices from the past. Reach out…take a hold of the handle and be ready for the wonder of the unknown that lies beyond the door. The doors of perception about to change…forever.

You have nothing to fear, except fear freezing your hand, again. Knock on the door. All is well.

MORGAN LE FEY

Even when others cry out against you, even when there are loud, aggressive voices proclaiming you are not magickal, the truth is that you are magickal, have always been magickal, will always be magickal. I urge you to allow me to protect you, with the sword from the lake of Avalon itself. I will not hurt a soul, but I will carve through the bonds and the chords their criticism has created, and I will heal you of the hurt their cruel voices and harsh words have caused.

Take some time for your own self, dear one, and retreat and allow me to nurture you. Your magick is strong and powerful, but the wounds have at times been deep. Let the beings behind me soothe you, and allow yourself to feel your truth again. You are whole, perfect and complete. Swim in the silken waters, feeling your truth, and know that soon you will experience a homecoming. You are never alone along. And I will always be at your side, whenever you have need of me. You are orphan, outcast, wanderer no more. I now assign the Morgens, the priestesses of Avalon, and the sacred swan and Dragonfae to be at your side evermore. Evermore.

When you have experienced being ignored or refused entrance into family closeness or the mainstream, this card may show up to comfort you and let you know that your soul family is not only looking out for you, it is assigned to protect you for a time in order to shelter you so that you may heal. You will experience joy and rapture at this homecoming, and peace in your heart. You are a defender, a guide and know that friendships coming to you will now help you grow in strength, courage, intuition and in the love of yourself, and of all other beings.

AINE AND THE GUARDIAN

Here I stand, offering to you the protection and safety of my guardian being, wanting you to know how very protected you truly are. Never need you fear again those who have done you harm. This is over, and never again will disrespect and tyranny blight your path and light. Know that from this moment on, I stand with you, as does this magnificent Moondragonfae guardian, and together we say you may live as you wish, you may love as you wish, you may worship as you wish. No longer will others who feel they know best, have their way with you, in spirit, in your heart, in your body, in your eternal soul. You are a radiant being of moonlit power, and the Goddess, our Mother, is overjoyed at your brilliance, your wit, your beauty, your freedom.

I repeat. You are safe. You are protected. You are divine. All else is a lie.

Allow yourself to take flight, and explore the night and the freedoms it holds. The Moon cycles have much to reveal to you now, and as she wanes and waxes, and shines fully, you may stand beneath her and feel her rays shining through your every cell, filling you with natural magick that sustains your freedom, your true soul self, and brings you a warrior strength that by no means decreases your brilliance’s as a woman, or your femininity. Be receptive, and Aine will guide you to her magickal places, and this galactic Dragonfae being will help you see beyond our own star, the Sun, into the realms beyond. Your freedom and your self is as boundless as the night sky.

Well that was a delicious reading. Overcoming fear to step into something wonderful, allowing yourself to heal and be supported and loved and revelling and embracing how Divinely perfect you are! Yes!!! (Have I said I love the cards and how they work). So gorgeous one, wishing you a fantabulous week, remember to start reframing Monday’s as something magical and marvellous – heck we could do that for every single day! Terrific Tuesdays, Wonderful Wednesday’s etc. Sending you huge hugs and squeezes and I look forward to connecting with you. Have a marvellous, magical Monday and a wonderful, whacky, week! (Oh yes and remember to laugh and giggle as much as possible!)
