Full Moon

Strawberry Moon Journal Prompts

What comes to mind when you think about the Full Moon in June?

The Strawberry Moon of June is named for the wild and ripe strawberries that reach their peak in June. It’s believed that picking strawberries beneath the light of the moon honors the crops and ensures a bountiful yield.

Strawberries are considered a food of love, representative of the goddess Freya, and they symbolize love and luck. June’s Strawberry Moon meaning embodies the magic and fullness of life.

This is the best moment to make difficult decisions or to face responsibilities you’ve been avoiding. Start fresh and dive deep into personal growth! Remember to pace yourself, don’t burn yourself out in your excitement and enthusiasm. Evaluate your goals and intentions to make sure they are realistic and achievable.

New life, sunlight, magic, joy, and strength are everywhere. The earth and the universe are surging with enthusiasm! Your intuition is at a peak! So keep an open mind to all of life’s adventures and twists.

The Strawberry Moon meaning is a special and sacred time to reflect on your life and make positive changes. So let’s look at some prompts to get you started.

Strawberry Moon Journal Prompts

A great way to celebrate the Strawberry moon meaning is by journaling your thoughts and intentions. Here are some prompts to get you started:

How far have you come with the goals and intentions you set this last Winter? Have you achieved them?
- If not, what obstacles can you remove that are holding you back? What patterns and routines are currently interfering with your growth? What can you do to change or alter these? Do you need to re-evaluate your intentions?
- If yes, what can you do to set goals that bring about a deeper and more spiritually fulfilling life? How can you challenge yourself further?
How can you incorporate a creative talent of yours into your spirituality?
Do you have a Strawberry Moon or Summer Solstice altar or sacred space in your home? List any crystals, oils, candles, flowers, statues, or meaningful personal items you’ve placed in your sacred space.
What can you do NOW, that your future self will be grateful for this Winter or next Spring? Now is a time of growth and improvement; what do you plan to manifest for yourself?
Slow down and notice some of your favorite aspects during the season of the Strawberry Moon and Summer Solstice. Make a list of them and find ways to incorporate them into your life more often.

Happy Virgo Worm Moon! (Do worms have an astrological sign?) and So Much More!

Jenny Heston · 4:44 pm ·

Happy Moony, Magnificent, Magickal, Manifesting Monday!

How are you, gorgeous one? How was your week?

Okay, we have lots to unpack this week as we are now in March, and you’ve heard the saying “In like a lion, out like a lamb?”

Well March brings us so many shifts and changes it might feel a tad turbulent and bumpy in spots, and to be honest, that might be a tad challenging, or not. It all depends on you! So w e have a glorious Virgo Worm Moon on Tuesday March 7th, (and again I ask – do worms have an astrological sign?)

The energy has shifted for March to “Turbulence Ahead”, and we have Equinox arriving on March 20th! (And yes! To all of you who have asked if there is going to be a guide for Equinox, there most certainly is! )

There is the delicious OMG (Ostara Magickal Guide) for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere who are going to experience the Spring Equinox. There is also the delightful MMM (Mabon Magickal Manual) for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere.

Oh yes, we have Saturn moving signs into Pisces (very emotional time), let alone what is happening with Pluto! (Can you do a glorious happy dance in your kitchen?)

Phew!

So let’s unpack, are you ready?

Tomorrow (Tuesday the 7th) we welcome in the Virgo Worm Moon. I purposefully am combining both the astrological and the true name of this Full Moon. Also, remember the Full Moon energy plays for 3 – 4 days either side of its culmination.

March 2023 paves the way for some of the most transformative cosmic events of the year. By the end of the month, we are likely to have faced change, healing, and the welcoming of new opportunities.

“To prepare us for all of these cosmic events, the Full Moon on March 7 will be our lighthouse.

Falling in the sign of Virgo, the March Full Moon will feel like a tonic, like an elixir that is specially crafted just for us to help us navigate all that this month is destined to bring.

The Virgo Full Moon will be our medicine, delivering exactly what is needed at this stage of our soul’s evolution.

Pay attention to where you feel called under this Full Moon. Do you feel guided to rest, release, or welcome new opportunities? Do you feel guided to go within and get still, or to put yourself and your creations out into the world?

There is so much brewing under this Full Moon it just seems that anything is possible, so honour your needs and pay attention to what your mind, body, and soul are trying to share.”

Traditionally, the Full Moon of March 2023 is called the Worm Moon, and it’s considered the final Moon of Winter. The Spring season is upon us, and with it, new life and excitement.

The Worm Moon’s spiritual meaning reflects the fresh starts taking place everywhere you look!

Tiny buds are pushing their way up through the earth, filling your heart and soul with pure joy. Birds, squirrels, and other critters scurry about, and you wonder if they feel the same hope and anticipation you do.

Whether physically or metaphorically, it’s time to plant seeds you can harvest and reap the rewards of later this year. What hard work and energy can you do NOW to help out your future self?

It’s time to get specific on your goals and focus your energy on your specific intention.

“Drink in whatever medicine this March Full Moon brings and recognize you are being prepared for something bigger.

As you journey through all of this lunar energy, be kind, patient, and gentle with yourself.”

Okay, if you skipped the Moon energy, I advise you to re-read it again as it ties into the March energy of Turbulence Ahead.

Let’s let Lena explain this.

“This is an exciting time that will be inspiring to some and terrifying to others.

Make sure your seat belts are fastened and your basic security needs are met.

This is a month where some of you will be delighted and inspired by the ignition of creative energy fueling the intentions and projects that were stagnant in their movement forward. Others of you may be hit with karmic completions that rear their heads for you to deal with before anything else can move forward.

And some of you will still feel a bit overwhelmed by the amount of clearing and releasing and uncluttering that still needs to be done.”…………

Are you paying attention to how this Full Moon folds into the monthly energy?

Last but not least we have Equinox on March 20th.

Now if you have never worked with the power of Equinox energy, I highly suggest you do.

This is why OMM and MMM have been created!

This is a balance point, this is a point where here in the Northern Hemisphere we are coming out of Winter (the time of conception and incubation) and are planting the seeds we want to see flourish for the rest of the year.

Which again ties into this delicious Virgo Worm Moon energy and the Turbulence.

What are your seeds? Do you know?

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading! When I went and asked which cards wanted to come out. The cards that wiggled and jiggled to come and guide this week are the glorious Oracle of the Dragonfae. Now if these delicious guides are new to you, please let me introduce them:-

These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick!

They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names.

The most perfectly delicious guides as we approach the Equinox and with the Full Moon tomorrow – whoot.

Also there are 3 delicious new crystals that were insistent they wanted to come play. We have Angel Aura Quartz, Dragon Blood Jasper and Spiderweb Jasper. Yum!

So my darling, let’s get grounded shall we? Gently close your eyes and breathe yourself here, into this moment, into this body you inhabit. Allow your breath to fill up all the corners of your being and let your essence dance freely within you. Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that will support you as we navigate these delicious energies.

If you need some more support getting grounded I have a wee guided visualisation for you that will help. You can do it anywhere – the grocery line, in your car, at your desk, you name it!

Let’s Get Grounded

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

GRANDMOTHER MAGICKS

At this time of life change, you are drawing to you other beings and people, including divinities, who bring you solace, comfort and their unconditional love. You are surrounded by this comfort even in the beings of this Earth known as pets, but who are truly your guardians and beloved companions…these pets are those who comfort you with their love and warmth, and their desire for your well-being, your company and your happiness, come what may. You may draw new friends to you at this time, or just be gifted with the kindness of strangers.

There are many wonderful beings in this world, some of whom are being sent directly to you to bring you comfort, to hold you, and to rock you safely to sleep each night. You are a being who is valuable, and who is loved beyond measure. Allow us to come close to you, and let us in. Bre prepared for kindnesses, small gifts and valuable windfalls when I make an appearance. Also, know that the old way of viewing this stage of life has fallen away….there is no need to take the lie up again. Let it be, and come forth into this new stage as beautiful as we know you are.

I also wish you to know that the time for change is coming: that you are passing from childhood of a kind, to a true deep maturity…this is a fine thing, and we will celebrate this together, you and I, together with the friends who want so very much to meet you!

WU-WANG

In times of olde, they said that only those who were pure could connect with those like myself. That the virgin could connect with the Unicorn. That the child could see the meaning of God. That the fae would truly see into your heart, and finding it corrupt, would never appear to you.

I am here to tell you that your heart is pure and wild and innocent. It is that you have forgotten how to see us, that you have been told that in order to see us, you must be perfect. That in order to see us, you must be mad, unclean, broken, and if you say you have seen us, you face being shunned.

I am here to say to you that we appear to those who have looked into their hearts and have seen beyond the woundings….because within you there is a wild and untrammelled heart space which is free of any taint. In that space we can enter and therefore, we can and we will be seen again. You were not born into this world wrong or sinful. There may be karmic markings, but you are no sinner, nor are you corrupt or unworthy. Foster that which is wild and pure and good with you, and we will begin to appear and come forth. You will feel us on the wind, in the water, see us in the fire and hear our voices emanating from the heart of our mother, the Earth.

You are a child of the Mother, call her what you will, and at your core you are one of the wild ones. That is my message for you.

LADY LUNA’S MAGICK

You know that I shine upon this Earth and that we belong to each other. Yet you have disconnected, for all your knowledge, when only a few moments spent beneath my rays would cleanse your entire energy field, assisting you in shining your light at the full moon. And with my dark time, you may go within and find the secrets you have kept hidden from yourself and look at them without blame or fear. So I ask you now, as my moon Dragonfae flies about me, sending the energy ever turning, to connect with me, Lady Luna. When you do connect, you will be more complete and the yearning and sense of hopelessness that I feel from you from time to time will ease, be soothed and finally, dissolve.

Take my healing powers and light as yours: as they are. Reflect upon me and I will reflect upon you, and your dreams and visions will gain in strength, clarity and power, all the while keeping you safe and grounded. My light has shone over the Dragonfae, the magickal world, the beings you call human and all those of the animal and plant kingdom, the minerals, the dreams and the flowers and all are mine, and I am theirs. My light ran through the veins of your ancestors and they understood me better than you, for all your knowledge, sometimes do now. Please, let us be friends and companions once again. Do not be afraid of my light and my night time self, for you are the same as me and we are both older than time itself.

Learn your moon sign: this will give you many clues as to who you are at the core of your being, who you are under the layers and layers of (unmagickal) conditioning that can rub away and erode our natural intuitive abilities and magickal gifts.

Love, love the guides this week! How did your card resonate for you? Okay gorgeous bean, remember to put your crystals out in the moonlight, gather some moon water (fabulous for your plants and your body), and get clear, grounded and centred. Most certainly grab either OMM or MMM to get you prepared for the Equinox! Big hugs and squeezes and let’s enjoy the ride!

Imbolc, Full Moon and a Glorious Free Gift for You.

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Mystical, Marvellous, Magnanimous, Manifesting Monday!

How are you gorgeous one? How are you feeling?

I have just recovered from “the plague” that my housemate very kindly brought back from Utah and ran rampant through my home taking out everyone! Including my daughter who was here visiting for 2 weeks and her fabulous 4 month old baby. (Which made me uber, uber bitchy!)

So grumpy, fed up, tired and bitchy has been the energy of everyone for the last 10 days! Then to add insult to injury a major gas line was ruptured so we were without heat for 2 days! Thank goodness for a hot water bottle, a kettle and cups of tea.

So let’s explore the energies of this mid winter time, Imbolc and the Full Moon and I have a glorious free gift to support you at this time. If you read on, you will understand why I created her for you.

Interestingly enough, when working with seasonal energies this heavy, fed up, bitchy energy is right on cue for this time of year. Imbolc is on Wednesday and marks the spot of mid-winter.

The mid place between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. This time of year can feel rather heavy, grey and drab in many ways, but………

We had all the celebrations at the end of December and the start of January, and there is a sense of “now what?” Some are fretting about how they are going to realise the goals they set at New Year, others are still perking their path and others are just tired, bone tired!

However, we’re starting to notice the days are getting a bit longer, there might be some tiny little shoots beginning to sprout above the surface. Have to say, all of my snowdrops are out in full force, which makes me smile with their little white bobbing heads.

There is a sense of hope & anticipation, that new life will arrive soon. And, there’s also a heaviness to it.

Why?

At Imbolc, we’re beginning to really realise, something is shifting in our lives.

Imbolc itself means “quickening in the belly”. There is something shifting and changing.

We are beginning to root a bit more into this year of 2023 with its delicious 7 energy and we are expanding in some way. (Whether you can see it or not – can’t you feel it, though?) And there is a lot of resistance that comes with big expansion.

There’s a whole lot of forces (internal and external) that want to keep you small. It’s scary to level up in your life – and there are really strong parts of us that don’t like that.

But this is the work of winter: Winter is where you integrate all your experiences from last year & it alchemizes into new life, new growth, new parts of you that will emerge in the weeks & months ahead.

Right now there’s a stretching & growing happening deep within you. (Even if you can’t see it, it’s there!) And that can be deeply uncomfortable. Depending on the shifts you’re making in your life, the resistance can be intense.

And it creates a conflict within you. This is where the question arises: do you have the strength & the courage to push through that resistance, to whatever’s on the other side? Or do you give in & lean back on old ways of operating?

This is the challenge and invitation at Imbolc.

If things feel hard for you right now, trust it’s because you are EXPANDING. You’re doing big work in your life (even if you can’t see it, yet) and you’re going to feel resistance to that.

At Imbolc, this is when the seeds of your life are planted….

So remember to take sweet, gentle care of yourself right now. Nurture yourself, nourish your spirit. And REST, sweet one. Just rest. We are still in winter. This is your most important work.

So to help you with your work I have a free gift for you!

This is the Fabulous Imbolc guide, which I nicknamed Fi after my glorious big sister who hated winter! Yet come the snowdrops and the Leo Full Moon and her energy would perk up and she could feel the growth stirring underground, the change and the hope.

The Full Moon in Leo arrives on Sunday February 5th. This delicious Full Moon has some lovely sparkly energy to balance any heaviness you are feeling. This Full Moon is also called the Snow Moon and its spiritual meaning folds in with Imbolc. This moon is full of change and transition, it represents change, hope and growth.

Remember, growth during the Snow Moon isn’t always comfortable or easy. Figure out ways you can relax and surrender to this transitional season. How can you clear out the unnecessary to make room for the meaningful?

During this time, we start to move past the goal-setting stage and into the realistic planning stages. How are you going to make your intentions come to fruition?

Direct your magical intentions on rituals this month focused on new habits, goals, and plans for the future.

Take some time to really focus and be present. Contemplate your personal and spiritual intentions. This is a truly magical time, full of beautiful energy and momentum! These are the days the Full Snow Moon rises.

Do you see the folding now?

So my darlings with Imbolc just around the corner and the glorious Full Moon to back it up, when I went to the cards I grinned a huge grin as the gorgeous guides of The Faery Forest Oracle were adamant to join! Now if these are new guides for you, please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to!

“Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle. The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people. May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.”

I have created a guided visualisation for you to really see this energy that is flooding in you, around you, towards you and through you. If that doesn’t resonate then just Breathe. Breathe into your toe nails, breathe into the roots of your hair, breathe in all the promises, the blessings and opportunities and sigh your exhale out, letting go of anything that feels a tad sticky or tacky.

When you are ready, invite your inner wise knowing to pick the card or cards that call to you.

What whispers for you, what do you need to be aware of?

Did you remember to pick?

Take a breath and let’s go have a look!

THE TRICKSTER

Let me be a reminder to be true to yourself, to your own personal truths, to the code within your soul. Truly, at this time it is essential for you to let your conscience be your guide, and to live according to your own creed, with open eyes. Do not fool yourself into believing another person’s vision and ideas are more important than your own – question agendas, and be aware of people’s history. For at this time, there is one about you who is attempting to persuade you to their cause, to join them in what they see is a great task, but which in truth is simply a harnessing of your power to their agenda, which is not for your highest good.

All tricksters are charming and know exactly what to say to persuade you – but this is mere language. Their deeds will not match their words, and what you are agreeing to by joining with them will be a loss of your own personal dreams for the furthering of theirs. If you allow yourself to be coerced, cajoled, and manipulated at this time, it will weigh heavily on your very soul.

Be more wary than is natural for you at this time. Do not betray yourself, or ignore the warning signs, which are all about you. Do not foolishly give away your power, but exercise it, and weave a future that is truly the one you wish to create – one, which will provide you with honour, plenty, and the satisfaction of having been true to yourself.

FAERY GODMOTHER

When the Faery Godmother comes to you, be aware that this is a 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 a life that works for you – and she is a protective force too.

So what you need will come to you, sometimes in 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.

INITIATE

Your energy is unworldly, naive and unguarded – and you will therefore soon face tests which will help you acquire experience and wisdom. You have an inclination to take risks without thinking of where the road you wish to dart down will lead you, you have a tendency to say and do many things without thinking through the possible impact.

You speak the uncomfortable truth as no other can.

The lessons you are experiencing are filling your life with richness – you have so much trust and self-belief, but you are not prideful.

You are ready to take great chances, and others may even judge you as being about to take crazy risks. You may be contemplating leaving a safe job, about to travel, enter a new relationship wholeheartedly, or make a move in life without having examined all the consequences.

You are curious, enquiring, and open hearted.

You are inquisitive, but you are no fool. You are an initiate, and you will therefore take risks as you face the unknown.

Your next steps into the mystery of life will be blessed, and you have the courage to now enter the unknown.

Hmmm, breathe in, breathe out. I don’t know about you but the guides picked these to help you release the dark, the fear, the tight and scratchy and to really let you know about the light that surrounds you and is encouraging you to streeeeettttchh and grow, like the sprout coming from the glorious seed. Wishing you a glorious week of celebration, intention, activation and ease. Keep cosy, laugh tons and make soup! (Always a good thing). Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week.

Welcome to December, What’s Your Theme Going to Be for 2023?

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Inspiration, The Cold Moon and Solstice is almost here!

Happy Magickal, Miraculous, Meaningful, Majestic, Musical, Manifesting Monday!

Can you believe we are in December already? I have to say that for me it felt like 2022 just whizzed by! And here we are on the first Monday of December, closing out the year and stepping into all sorts of celebrations and expectations lol.

To help us all navigate and set strong intentions for 2023 I am opening up spots for Opening Up The Door on 2023. Your Personal Theme card reading for 2023.

This reading is designed to support and empower you for the year ahead as we dive deep and explore the themes and energy of your theme card. It shows what 2023 will bring to you personally, energetically and how to embrace and embody it all year long.

Many of you found this super helpful last year and have requested it again.

So voila, here it is!

Also, many of you have emailed and asked if there is going to be a Book of Winter Solstice. Yes, yes there is.

Too often, we go through winter out of alignment with the seasonal energy: we’re working against it, and it’s creating a lot of dis-ease in our spirits. It depletes you.

This is why The Book of Winter Solstice was created. To offer a different, deeper and more meaningful way to engage with all that our society and our soul needs.

I will be sending out an email mid week with all of the info, so that you have it in time for this gorgeous Solstice.

Okay, so with our move into December the energy has changed and the theme is “GET INSPIRED.”

As Lena explains – “December is a big month and not entirely all beauty and fun, as we are still under sluggish influences keeping us focused internally, filtering and weeding out the debris of old emotional baggage, relationships that don’t support us, habits that don’t serve us, and responsibilities that are not ours. The good news is that we are very slowly moving out of the intense grind of the past several months that for many of us has been very challenging.

The most important area of growth and focus this month is around the reflection of what inspires you and whether you have what inspires you active in your life at this time or not.

We have some powerful points of change with the full moon and the solstice times that will hold your feet to the fire in this process of observation making it one not so easily ignored.

Whatever is not inspiring will become painfully obvious and you will have opportunities to make choices, decisions and adjustments. There are a lot of aspects to inspiration that will be affected this month beginning with the personal self.

Are you inspired by who you are? Self-esteem issues are on the table and there will be many chances to forgive the past and reset one’s relationship to self.”

So let me ask, What Inspires You?

On Wednesday, December 8th we welcome in the Cold Moon, the last Full Moon of 2022! December’s long dark nights and cold frigid days bring the Moon’s annual cycle full circle.

The Cold Moon’s spiritual meaning indicates now is an ideal time to start visualising what you want to bring into your life. (Which ties in for the energy of this month of Get Inspired).

Once 2022’s Full Moon of December arrives, we’ve completed an entire trip around the sun. Now is a beautiful moment to focus on all the good things headed your way!

You’ve been working so hard and have some serious gumption, trust that the universe will help bring your intentions and dreams to fruition. The Cold Moon encourages you to follow your greatest passions and spiritual joys.

It’s a time for introspection and soul-searching, a chance to recharge and reconnect. This is a magical season full of transformation and deep internal work.

It may seem counterproductive to pause, rest, and reflect. Especially in our Western Culture that is all about the parties and celebrating right now.

However, remember your worth isn’t defined by your productivity.

Use the Cold Moon as a symbolic guide to “freeze and hibernate” as well. Slow down and be fully present in activities that truly bring you joy and pleasure. To help you delve deeper into this energy I have some lovely Journal Prompts for you to play with as well as a super easy Ritual.

Before you know it, Spring will be here, so enjoy these quiet moments of rest and solitude.

So with all of that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and cards and asked who wanted to show and shine – the deck that came out loud and proud this week is Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle. Perfect! As we could all do with loving ourselves a wee bit more and being a tad more gentle and kind whilst we navigate these delicious times.

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

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.

MERMAID SOUL

Deep within, you know what excites and inspires you. Your job isn’t to decide whether that inspiration is practical, realistic or even possible. Human beings have been shown throughout history that the ideas which they once scoffed at as being ridiculous or impossible to achieve can become the realities that they rely upon and take for granted as a natural part of their daily lives not long afterwards.

You too shall move from doubt to wondering how you ever lived without this passion, idea or inspiration of yours. Let the Universe show off its creative flair for the unexpected and inspirational through you. Do not give up on what truly moves and inspires your heart, for soon enough it will be part of your world.

You are a rare creature, not entirely of this world. You need to swim in deeper waters of mystery and meaning. In those deep places, you can commune with the sacred and be nourished by that which is real and yet cannot be explained. To deny this and remain on the surface of things will not satisfy your soul. It would be like eating stale biscuits, when what you really hunger for is succulent fruit, sweet with juice.

You crave mystery and magic the way most other people crave control and certainty. These yearnings of yours are not immature or escapist. They are the voice of your inner mermaid, rising up from your oceanic soul.

Her siren song is the voice of your true desires. You are connected to worlds beyond this physical reality, the worlds of spirit, healing, intuition, meditation and creativity.

When you are in touch with her you will embody your feminine freedom and spiritual independence. You will live your life according to what fills you up, living from that inner place where you feel at home, the realm of your soul.

PEACOCK PRIESTESS

Daily life can get us down before we even realise what is happening. Trying to do it all can push us beyond our limits, draining our energy and stealing our joy.

One moment, we are on top of the world; the next moment, we wonder what happened and why we cannot rally our spirit. If we do not learn how to rest, exhaustion, crankiness and illness eventually force our hand. It takes longer to break down and recover – and is much more painful – than it is to learn to rest as part of our lifestyle.

Rest is not only a way to prevent unnecessary suffering, it also has its own value. When we are in restful quiet, we can hear our inner voice and the guidance of spirit much more clearly. We can feel gratitude and take delight in what brings us pleasure. Rest is part of how we live well.

Peacock Priestess reminds you that you can see taking rest as an act of love and a way to be a good role model. Don’t allow guilt or shame to stop you from taking delight in your downtime. What kind of rest you need will vary. It could be a long nap, painting, listening to music, writing poetry or practising meditation, a bath with candles, visiting a temple or church to sit quietly , working in your garden, playing with animals or going for a walk and being in nature, soaking up her beautiful healing energy.

There are many ways to rest. Try some. Find out what you enjoy.

If you feel impatient for something to happen – or worried that you are not accomplishing all that you want to achieve quickly enough – then take heart.

The Universe is working with you, not against you, to bring your dreams to life. Even times when not much seems to be happening are a part of this creative process, balancing out other times when energy becomes active and intense.

What will be most helpful for you and your dreams right now is to rest. During that pleasurable rest, behind the scenes, some spiritual magic is going to be created.

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.

Awesome!
