Welcome to 2025, and Today’s Wolf Moon!

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

We are slowly, quietly, calmly entering into 2025, and all that it portends! 

How are you most delicious lovely?  It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a few weeks!  And I will say I spent those couple of weeks facilitating The Omen Days (which is such a glorious way to enter a new year), and all the amazing women who participated really blew my hair back!

Welcome to 2025.  

I would love to tell you this will be a gentle year, but it’s going to be intense!

While our numerology points to a year of endings, astrologically, we are shown that all endings pave the way for new beginnings.  

As in 2025, we remarkably have four major planets and the lunar nodes changing signs. It is incredibly rare to have so many planets changing signs in one year, so this definitely makes 2025 stand out!

Also, remember we enter the Year of the Snake on January 29th, and if we look at the Snake it is continually shedding the old to make way for the new…..

Thus, instead of spending pages going through the above (as those of you who have signed up for Opening The Doors on 2025 will receive), let’s talk about today’s Full Moon.

Beneath the Full Moon of January 2025, something magical stirs and whispers secrets of old. The Wolf Moon brings a luminous and mysterious energy as it lights up the sky. 

January’s Full Moon meaning reminds us of our connection with the wild spirit of wolves.

The Full Wolf Moon occurs on January 13th, 2025, reaching its peak at 5:27 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

January gets its name from Janus, the Roman god of all beginnings. 

Janus is often depicted with two faces, one looking to the past and the other to the future. This makes January the perfect month for reflection and fresh starts. 

Which is why we are starting Flourish on January 18th!

If you have been sitting on the fence, there are only two spots left and you won’t regret gifting one to yourself!

As the New Year dawns, the world remains cocooned in darkness during these short, fleeting days. 

Yet, we’re hopeful as we nestle in our homes during these cozy, chilly nights. 

The Wolf Moon is a time for rituals involving inner strength, protection, and connecting with Winter’s wisdom.

There are so many rituals to do at this Moon Time that connect you to your inner strength and Winter’s Wisdom.

A simple one to do is go Howl at the Moon.

In a place where you feel comfortable, stand with your feet apart and your hands on your hips in your best superhero pose (Grey’s Anatomy fans will know what I’m talking about). Studies (like this one from Harvard) have shown that if you maintain this position for five minutes, you will perform better at a difficult task. It also helps build confidence.

However, why stop there? Think of a negative feeling or stressful situation that’s burdened you. Now, while maintaining your superhero pose, give a few big howls. Imagine that worry and negativity leaving your body. In its place is nothing but tranquil energy and peace.

This can be a wonderful way to release tension, anxiety, or heavy emotions. I mean, at minimum, it’s a big mood booster.

I’ve also created some fabulous Journal prompts to help you dig a bit deeper.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that flew out and at me this week  are the amazing Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh my soxs off – as with all the energies swirling and the bizarre weather patterns that are happening, the world does feel like that right now.

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to, would be exceptionally rude!)

“What is life if not a Divine Circus?  Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us  moments earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

Thus, I invite you to breathe and just BE with your gorgeous self here at this moment.  Take a few lovely, rich, nourishing breaths and let the cares of the moment slide off like wee little raindrops.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

If you need some help and support releasing the “shoulds”, the weight of energy around you I have a lovely guided visualisation for you.  It’s fun, we are going on a yomp and an explore!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s Go See Shall We?

JOKER IS WILD

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense.  It is laughing with you, not at you.  You’ll see this for yourself as the Joker weaves her magic in your life, bringing you the grace that is beyond all reason, the necessary ingredient to ensure you win with the hand you have been dealt by life.  

There’s nothing impossible when the Joker appears.  Her wild ways can transform a losing streak into a lifelong love affair with Lady Luck.

Strap yourself in and prepare for the ride of a lifetime.  The Joker has come to you and the Joker is wild.  Unpredictable and brilliant, she brings you a message.  

You are being empowered to overcome all odds.  So you are going to win.  No doubts, no dramas, but not necessarily in a way that you expect either!  

She is sending the best possible situation to you even now.  It might startle you, like a sudden light in the middle of the night, but it will be welcome nonetheless.

The Joker is the highest trump card to beat all others.  

No matter how much another may seem to have the upper hand, or how many forces seem to be against you, even if you feel like a lone wolf about to be mauled by a pack of hungry lions, the Joker always wins.  

She comes out of the blue, and changes destiny from darkness to light.  She brings the brilliant solution that ends a problem, the way through that is best and brightest.  

You probably won’t see it coming.  It will probably be in a way that subverts everything you once believed to be true. 

But it will be a welcome trick by the Universe, a loving joke that opens your heart and helps you realise that this vast impersonal universe personally knows and cares for you, so intimately and with such meticulous care. 

Just don’t expect to feel in control of the process, for the Joker is wild and moves according to her own genius, but always blesses you with what will work best, beyond compare, now and always.  

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.   

If you cannot figure out what your inner truths are, or you feel confused by conflicting thoughts and feelings, torn between head and heart, then you are in a state of information overload.  

You need to switch off, discharge some excess mental and emotional energy and take a break.  Give yourself some time out from the crazy noise and constant distractions of the world so you can get in touch with what is true for you.

SILVER SIREN

When is an enchantment not enchanting?  When it is a spell that you allow to consume your free will, even as it promises so much and yet delivers so little.  

The Silver Siren sings her song, a pretty poison to the soul.  Her false allure tempts the mind, even whilst the heart feels that something is not quite right.  

Your power will come from discerning the truth and allowing her false promises no place in your heart.

If you compromise your integrity you will find that what you have obtained was not worth the price you paid for it, no matter how much you believed it would be otherwise.  It simply will not be worthwhile.  

The Silver Siren is a false light that is so very enticing but so destroying.  To disempower the false light, you must stay true to what your heart says. 

No matter how much you may fear you’ll regret it later on, simply say no to that which is unworthy, to that which does not hold the truth of love within.  Even if a person declares that they are utterly enlightened and only interested in your highest good; even if the opportunity at hand is “too good to miss”, making your mind needy and confused, follow your heart – if it’s not a Hell Yes, it’s a NO!

You are being given an opportunity for empowerment.  It is time to trust yourself and stand firm with your truths, and to experience the priceless sense of love, safety, security, peace and self-possession that this brings.  

With this, your soul can sing its own song, a song that shares true light, the lightness of a heart that lives in peaceful truth with the world.

Holy Hannah, you can’t make this shit up!  What fabulous guides to kick us off in January.  

Take time this week to really FEEL into what you want to experience this year, and how you want to ALIGN with it.

Use the Wolf Moon energy to really release and allow you to dream.  

Big hugs and squeezes, and if you want to join us for Flourish, there are 2 spots open and we start January 18th.

Joy, Grief and Mercury Retrograde…..

· ·

Happy Marvellous, Merry, Musical, Mystical, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you – really?

I ask as I truly want to know.  Our patterns of processing anger, fear, change, anxiety, joy and grief are not linear.  We don’t work through them daily from point A to point B and then tada – we are fine!.

So how do we feel what we need to feel and not get submerged or lost in it all?

I think it’s exceptionally important to ask oneself “What am I willing to feel or do at this moment in time?”  

An example.  As some of you know my Mothership died 5 months ago and within the space of 5 days my family of origin fragmented and was filled with attack, dysfunction and the most ridiculous behaviour I have witnessed from grown arsed adults.  Which left me to do the majority of the packing up of things, as there was only 3 weeks to do it in.

The dysfunction and attacks were so brutal that I postponed the Celebration of Life to allow those individuals to try and get their poop in a group – which still hasn’t happened.  Thus, we are moving ahead with a Celebration this Saturday.

Why am I sharing all this?

Because, to help me be able to do all the pieces that have needed to happen after her death and planning and organising the celebration of life (as the sibling has left it all to me), I put my grief in a box and stuffed it in the back of the closet.

After all, there was so much to do, right?

So the Grief got stuffed and in the midst of that stuffing there have been so many pockets of Joy!

Going on my month-long Odyssey through Ireland and the UK.  Coming home to my family cooking an amazing Thanksgiving dinner.  Playing in my garden.  Hiking with the dogs.  The work that I love.  Planning and implementing a surprise birthday gathering for my only girl the other weekend.  Bowling for my son Sam’s birthday this weekend. 

But yet the Grief kept wriggling in the box and finally blew the lid off on Tuesday.

I woke up bright and early, and Grief came rushing in, along with anger, resentment towards my sibling, abandonment, feeling overwhelmed – you name it and I sobbed for most of the day.  I walked and sobbed, I wrote and sobbed, it all just felt like too much.

There were still so many things to do, to organise to get ready for this Celebration of Life, what the fuck man!

So I took myself and the doggos for a massive walk in the pouring rain and within minutes there was a huge rainbow glistening against the dark clouds and a wee voice reminded me – acknowledge the Joy, find the Joy, pause and feel it.

Which I did.  It was tiny, but the glimmer was there.

Then as I curled up into a ball and my dogs came and snuggled, there was another glimmer, and within two days I was coming back to centre.

So I decided to take that grief, anger, and all the myriad of other feelings along with the Joy and create something.  I gathered a bunch of driftwood, I sat on the ground and I built a 3 foot high Rememberance Tree for the Motherships service.  

Yes, I got cold and wet.  Yes it felt fabulous to take that energy and funnel it into something creative and honouring.  

So with the holidays coming up in the States (Thanksgiving), and then Christmas – for many, the holiday season is full of joy and connection; for others it can be a painful reminder of what’s missing. 

Perhaps you’ve lost someone you love, or maybe you’re grieving the end of a relationship or the loss of a job.  You may be living far from family or grieving the recent election. 

When we don’t allow ourselves to feel pain, we also stifle the experience of joy.

So, grieving well means having resilience for feeling the pain, but also knowing that you are okay, that you will make it through, and, as a result, that you will experience both immense pain and immense joy.

Remember, whatever it is you’re holding, it’s valid and can be acknowledged in a way that feels personal and meaningful to you.  

Find something that you do daily that is the tether to guide you back to Joy.  

What is that for you?  

How do you bring yourself back to centre and reconnect to something bigger than yourself that loves you to pieces?

And remember – Mercury Retrograde starts November 25th and goes through until December 15th.

So instead of giving it a bad spin, let’s reframe it.

While Mercury is moving through the underworld, it is a good time to slow down, go back over things, revisit the past, and pay attention to subconscious thoughts and programming. 

Mercury retrograde can be a healing and highly intuitive time when we use it this way.

Re-visit, Re-envision, Re-lease, Re-imagine.

When we slow down and take in the big picture we can do that, yes?

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

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth.  Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world.  We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK.  Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense.  She wants so much more for you.  She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny.  She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart.  She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you.  You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true.  There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed.  Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity.  She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “ 

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time.  Woosah!

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ANGEL OF TRUTH

The truth wants to be told, needs to be heard.  It may seem like the whole world wants to believe in a lie, and so you wonder if you are crazy, if you are the only one who is thinking differently and desiring the real story to emerge.  Yet those that fight against the truth are even more in need of it!  There can be no healing, no freedom, no moving one without it.  

You are going to be blessed with a truth revealed, a realisation about yourself, the world or others that will bring you relief.  It will happen at the right time.  It will set your soul free.  

Sometimes, the lies we are repeatedly told become so familiar that we forget that they are lies and begin to believe that they are real.  Maybe it’s someone judging us that is the lie.  Maybe it’s advertising and the media, which are often more about deceptive manipulation that a source of correct information.  Whatever the source, all untruth teaches us the same thing – that we must be afraid and hate each other.  

When we are fed so  many false truths, it can become hard to remember what real truth feels like.  It can even start to seem like the truth doesn’t matter as much as being able to convince another person to accept your point of view.  This is like poison for the soul.

The soul needs truth like your body needs air.  It keeps it alive.  Deep in your soul, you know what is true, and you know when you, or anyone else, is not being truthful.  You are sensitive enough to know that only truth feels good for you.  You must give yourself permission to be truthful with your own soul and live honestly, authentically and bravely in this world.  It is the only way for you to be really you.  

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell.  This is very special.  A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place.  Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen.  You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers.  You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart.  Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.  

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

EARTH GODDESS

To live the dream, we have to surrender the fantasy.  This can be painful.  It feels like the end – when, in fact, it is the beginning.  Once the pain passes, there is the joy of what we have yearned for coming to life.  It may not be as perfect as the fantasy, but it will be real, and it can nourish us.  We can build our appetite for life with dreams, but we cannot be fed by them.  

The soul requires real life experience to become fully alive, to have experiences and grow.  There’s a fantasy that wants to become reality for you.  Don’t let a few gritty moments or human imperfections prevent you from experiencing the joy of heaven on Earth.

You have beautiful dreams and wonderful visions of what life could be.  It is not enough to imagine them.  You want to live them!  This is exactly how you are meant to feel.  For that to happen, you must practise feeling grounded, taking practical earthly steps, one at a time, to bring your dreams to life.

The Universe will send so much help your way, but you are the one who must take the steps.  Spirit cannot do that for you.  Even if you are not sure how your biggest, boldest dreams can come together, you can still ask  yourself, “What is it that I can do now?”

Remember you are an Earth Goddess.  You have the power to manifest your visions, to bring your beautiful ideas to life in the world.  This is what you are here to do.  Remember to love yourself enough to recognise your creative power and use it joyfully each day.  

Fuck yes!  Glorious guides for this time.  Wishing you all a stupendous week and there will not be a reading next week as I need to be present in this experience, see you in December.  Huge hugs and be gentle with yourself, and find your glimmers and Joy moments and hold them tight.

Dearest Gentle Reader, let’s get personal shall we?…….

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

(I have wanted to say that for so long!) 

It feels like it has been a hot minute!  Actually it has been 3 months of a hot minute.

So let me explain why – as no, you haven’t been abandoned and I most certainly have appreciated the emails and messages and check ins.

If you are not interested in hearing about it, please skip to the reading part.  Okay?

As many of you know, my mothership and I had an “interesting” relationship at times.  She could be incredibly judgemental, unkind and most certainly loved to point out I was the Black Sheep.

For the last 3 and a bit months prior to the mothership choosing MAID on June 7th, I went and spent time with her every day.

And in that time I received an incredible, amazing blessing and gift.

She allowed her armour to drop, the judgements to fade away and we laughed and talked and teased and loved in a way I can’t ever remember doing with her.  It truly was an incredible gift.

Now if you don’t know what MAID is, it’s Medical Assistance In Dying.  

She had chosen this prior and it was meant to be a month out but on that day she had had enough, so it was 2 hours heads up! 

And as of 1:13pm on June 7th things started getting “interesting.”

First off, my brother (only surviving family member), who turned up 10 minutes before the MAID process, expressed to me after she died his disappointment in me that I had called the funeral home, as he felt we should leave her body there for 3 days so he could visit it and be with her.

Hmm.  Appreciating this is the man that last year at my sister’s Celebration of Life decided to strip down to swim trunks and swim in her scattered ashes.

With her death we were then presented with the fact that her home, her life, her things had to be packed up, sorted, and distributed in under a month!  So needless to say the only way for me to do that was to take time off work and put my grief in a shoebox in the back of the closet.

My brother was useless as tits on a bull to be blunt and instead advised everyone (including my children) that none of us understood his complex grief and then went on an attack rampage focused solely on his perceived slights, misunderstandings and anger which he kindly directed fully at moi!

Toss on the cherry on that explosive toxic cake that the executor is his ex-wife who decided to work out some of her dysfunction with him and the attacks and vitriol were coming in quick and fast.

So here we are 3 months out and I had postponed my Mum’s Celebration of Life due to this fucked up family dynamic, have offered solution after solution which have all been discarded and finally came to the place of Enough!  

Not a “Fuck You” enough, but a heart and soul based “No.”

My shoebox in the closet is asking to be opened, my children are looking to honour their Nanny and have healing, grieving and closure.

Thus, the celebration of life now has a date, I’ve been super clear about my boundaries and have fully distanced myself from my brother and his ex wife and hopefully he gets to a point where he doesn’t hold the whole family hostage and will allow the Will to go to probate.

Huzzah!

Now, why am I sharing this with you?

Because, transparency is important to me and I feel that I have been in Imago for the last 3 months. 

Imago is what happens when a caterpillar cocoons before they transform, thus not a caterpillar, nor a butterfly – just the goo, a third entity unto itself.  

So within this glorious goo phase many things have changed.  My work, my life, my thoughts.

So yes, there is a reading today, will there be one weekly over the next month – No and I will explain why shortly.  

Also, within this process it’s been most interesting and I have relearned that when one closes off a whole huge piece such as grief and the death of the last parental – it also closes out a lot of joy and magick and seeing the delight in the every day.

I’ve also noticed that many around the world are in that place of Imago – the not knowing as our world seems to go to hell in a handbasket politically, financially, economically and yet there is a collective yearning for something more supportive, loving and joyful.  

Can you feel it?

So let me ask the questions of you that I have been exploring in great depth for the last 3 months.

What does your heart want (not your brain)?  

What does your soul need?  

How can you bring that into your life in a more tangible way?

What have you put off due to overthinking that would make your soul sing?

What do you need to release to allow more of that yumminess in?

Why those questions?

Because when you are in the Imago, the goo, they bring you back to your essence, they bring you back to Source and Love and they provide you with the breadcrumb trail to follow, which often is not logical at all.

An example of this in my own life is – for all you amazing ones who joined in when we did The Omen Days, if  you remember you had 13 wishes and by the end of the Omen Days you were left with one, yes?

That last wish was the one you were meant to create this year.  

My wish that I was left with was “I am travelling Ireland, UK and Wales and exploring the Sacred Sites.”

It’s been a goal and a dream I have had for at least 2 years and I kept putting it off and putting it off.

However, with all the drama of the last 3 months, and asking myself those questions every day, paring back the things that were done and allowing myself to sit in the Imago – guess what?

I leave in less than a week!  

Spirit, Soul and Heart have said over and over again – “It’s time to go back to your roots, it’s time to embrace the ancestral healing and love, it’s time to open and transform.”

So I am.  Hence why there won’t be weekly readings for the next 5 weeks!

However, for all of you who have asked, will there be an Equinox Guide, yes. 

She will be released this Wednesday.

I personally will be spending Equinox (September 22nd), my birthday, my 60th birthday at New Grange in Ireland.  If you don’t know this site – go check it out, it’s delicious.

Okay, that was a lot of openness and sharing, and for those of you who have skipped straight to the reading let’s crack on shall we?

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

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. “

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!

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

EARTH GODDESS

To live the dream, we have to surrender the fantasy.  This can be painful.  It feels like the end – when, in fact, it is the beginning.  Once the pain passes, there is the joy of what we have yearned for coming to life.  It may not be as perfect as the fantasy, but it will be real, and it can nourish us.  We can build our appetite for life with dreams, but we cannot be fed by them.  

The soul requires real life experience to become fully alive, to have experiences and grow.  There’s a fantasy that wants to become reality for you.  Don’t let a few gritty moments or human imperfections prevent you from experiencing the joy of heaven on Earth.

You have beautiful dreams and wonderful visions of what life could be.  It is not enough to imagine them.  You want to live them!  This is exactly how you are meant to feel.  For that to happen, you must practice feeling grounded, taking practical earthly steps, one at a time, to bring your dreams to life.

The Universe will send so much help your way, but you are the one who must take the steps.  Spirit cannot do that for you.  Even if you are not sure how your biggest, boldest dreams can come together, you can still ask  yourself, “What is it that I can do now?”

Remember you are an Earth Goddess.  You have the power to manifest your visions, to bring your beautiful ideas to life in the world.  This is what you are here to do.  Remember to love yourself enough to recognise your creative power and use it joyfully each day.  

You can’t make this shit up!  Seriously. 

So my gorgeous one, a message for you:- Whatever you are going through, bring it into your heart and your soul and ask the questions.  Follow the breadcrumb trail with faith and love, big love and trust that you are positively perfect and in the right space right now and everything is unfolding for your highest good.

You may get travel missives, you may not.  

Otherwise, see you in mid October.  

Big love and hugs,

Taurus New Moon, May Energy and Mothers Day!

Happy Magickal, Merry, Misty, Mischievous, Magnetic, Manifesting May Monday!

How are you delicious lovely?  How was your Beltane experience?

I made a lovely offering to the Fae of crystals, sunflower seeds, red wine and shiny coins.  I noticed a good chunk of the red wine was gone the next morning.  

So either there were some tippled faeries flying around or a tipsy racoon!

Okay my darlings, we have lots to natter about this week.  We have the New Moon in Taurus, a big shift in May energy and of course Mothers Day all coming up this week.  

So grab a cuppa and get settled.

First off, thank you for all your lovely shares about the Beltane gift – over 300 of you downloaded it and shared your experiences! Love it!

But before we kick off everything; for those who have asked about Flourish – there are only a few spots left. 

The doors close on Mothers Day and we start the following week.  

So if you have been sitting on the fence and umming and ahhing, to be blunt – it’s time to piss or get off the pot!  Lol.  

Remember, we are in the Year of the Wood Dragon and an 8 year – 8 is the number that takes everything and amplifies it!

It’s the year to really step into your power, your strength and there will be lots of lessons about having the courage to be yourself and to think outside the box.

If you have been a people pleaser, wowzer, there are going to be lots of lessons around this to help you finally release this pattern. 

So this is where the invitation for you is to really tune in, own your worth, get comfortable with uncomfortable emotions, and be a very active participant in creating your life (not a stand on the side victim).

Okay, let’s have a look at this week.

On Tuesday the 7th we have the Taurus New Moon in our skies.

“After the transformative waves of Eclipse Season, the Taurus New Moon on May 7th, anchors us into a place of nourishing stability.

We may feel the rising importance to slow down, ground our energy, and make time for stillness. Much may have changed and much may be in flux, but the welcoming energies of the New Moon guide us to rest, recharge, and find our centre.”

How can we create a cycle of nourishment in our own lives? 

How can we bring balance to the flow of giving and receiving?

Creating this harmony really begins with us and our inner state of being.

Next up we have the May energy shift into one of “MENTAL CLARITY AND INSPIRATION”.

Let’s let the amazing Lena share her wisdom on this theme.  

We have just been through an energetic and emotional centrifuge and this month we get to sort out what is left and more importantly what we value and what is important to us. 

There may have been losses, changes, disappointments, new opportunities, sudden reversals, shocking news, situations better than expected and situations more challenging than planned for. 

It has been a lot, our plates are full, and now we need to take the time to reflect, review, reassess, and reset, with the goal being some mental clarity and new inspiration about our purpose and next steps.

It is a time of observing self and others with patience and receptivity. What are you manifesting? If it is more of the same as in the past that you intended to change, then you still have work to do.

The greatest obstacle this month is fear. We have a collective fear of the unknown, fear of being victimised, losing our freedom, abandoned, restricted, and at the deepest level annihilated. 

This fear can quickly eliminate any inspiration for what is possible in the unknown of the future. 

The antidote for fear is trust and connecting to the larger picture of evolution, the magnificent structure and organisation of the universe and the grounding and nurturing aspect of the earth. 

Are you seeing how all the energies meld like a glorious pot of soup?

Hence why the doors to FLOURISH opened at this time!  (and no, you can’t make this shit up.)

Sunday the 12th brings in Mothers Day.

For me personally, it’s irrelevant if you have birthed children or not.  As we have all at some point in time nurtured, mentored, supported a child – whether they were ours or not.

I will be honest, I have learned so much from my five children – they have taught me amazing lessons, given me a lot of angst, and helped me to grow up.

I also realise that Mother’s Day can be challenging for some as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, grief, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more. 

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

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

Afterwards I went up and shared with her my experience and she could really hear how that didn’t feel safe inviting that person in.  So instead she invited me to bring in someone who represented that mothering energy instead – so the next time I happily brought in my Great Aunt, another Aunt and a lovely older female friend.  

Which in turn created a totally different experience!

So remember:-

“Let everything that needs to go, go.  Let everything that needs to come, come. “

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

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?

Shall we go have a look?

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell.  This is very special.  A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place.  Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible.  Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen.  You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers.  You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart.  Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.  

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart.  You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose.  Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

SHAMAN OF SKULLS

In your heart, you have been asking for something different, something more, and the Universe is answering your prayers.  You don’t need to be afraid of the changes happening, or that are going to happen, for you.  They are part of that answer from the Universe!  You might feel uncertain because you cannot see how it is going to all work out – but know that the Universe is caring for you, and will provide a way to move through the transition with grace.  

You are not crazy to willingly enter this experience.  There is nothing that you need avoid, and so much that you will gain.  

Something is ending.  Something that has meant a lot to you.  Maybe it is a relationship, a phase of your life, and identity that no longer suits you.  Maybe it is an inner ending that you can’t quite articulate, but you feel nonetheless.  This is a symbolic death with a greater purpose.  

The shaman is spiritually trained to overcome the fear of symbolic death and, instead of avoiding endings, to willingly go through them with the awareness that an ending is simply the other side of a beginning.  The shaman learns that endings happen when something new wishes to be born.  

Be patient with yourself, be kind, but also know that new life is happening for you now according to a higher purpose and loving plan.  Your life is meant to change at this time.  Be encouraged!  From the ashes of this symbolic death, you shall rise again.  

FINCH SPIRIT GUIDE

Finch Spirit Guide comes to you with guidance to care for yourself in a particular way. Finches can become beautifully coloured, but only when they eat foods that nourish them. They have the power of beauty within, but they need the correct nourishment to be able to transform that potential into expression.

You also have beautiful divine potential to shine your light and beauty in the world, but you must feed your soul what it needs to do this. Be respectful and loving to yourself as you choose what to take into your being – be it physical nourishment or emotional energy or even the kinds of books you read and entertainment you watch, for all has an impact on you.

Do you feel better for the experience? Does it nourish your soul?

The best growth-enhancing food for your soul is that which increases love. Finch Spirit Guide also brings a prediction of a celebration of happiness ahead of you – and wants you to know that your connection to the spiritual worlds is real, to trust in the messages you feel from the Universe as they make themselves known in your heart.

It’s a good time to experiment with how to best care for your mind, body and soul. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about finding what works best for you. You are in a phase of your life where giving back to yourself is important.

Perhaps you have been sharing a lot of yourself with others, have come through a challenging time or, in the near future, will be stepping up in a new way to share more creative energy and soul fire than ever before.

All that you need to know now is that it is the right time to take extra special care of you.

Woosah! Gorgeous guides for this week! Sending you massive hugs and squeezes, set your intentions under the Taurus New Moon, come join us in Flourish and ground yourself!

In this Mercury Retrograde energy, Don’t run the world through your body! It’s time to Flourish!

· ·

Happy Miraculous, Mercuric, Magical, Mellow, Moody, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you most delicious, lovely?  How did the eclipse treat you?

Isn’t it just oh so much fun to have that intense of an eclipse whilst Mercury retrograde is running rampant?

Part of me has been hugely confused as if I’m coming or going to be honest!

Let alone feeling like I’m parenting an acting out teenager when it comes to Mercury Retrograde and technology, I mean seriously it has been a gong show to say the least.

As I mentioned in the last reading, there is a beautiful new project coming out, called Flourish. 

You were meant to have heard about it last week, but as I said I have an acting out teenage tech entity in the house, who decides to not do what they are asked and then goes and locks themselves in their room (whilst ignoring me).  Lol

So it will be coming out this week and thank you for your patience. (Assuming I can bribe the tech teen out of their room with cool snacks or money, lol).

I have to admit, I am super excited, as the pivot in March, all the downloads and the eclipse – wowzer, they have mapped out my work for the whole year and it is frigging delicious.

Oh yes, and if you received a random email from me on Thursday about The Omen Days that you couldn’t read, no clue why.  My tech teen decided that was a good plan, so please ignore it!  

Okay, one of the themes that I have been hearing from a lot of you is overwhelm, the desire to hide, there’s grief, confusion, family dramas, the feeling of taking one step forward and three steps back, people pleasing , fatigue, the desire to shift things, boundaries and so much more.

All of which I can totally understand and appreciate.  

As let’s be honest, the energies have been and will continue to be rather challenging.  

But let me say to you – that if you are here at this moment in time, you are meant to be here.  You are needed.  

That being said, it doesn’t make it easier, as being a spiritual being having a human experience can be rather challenging!  And with overwhelm can come the sense of disconnect, fragility, fight/flight, freeze, or fawn.  

The key thing to remember is that YOU DON’T HAVE TO RUN THE WORLD THROUGH YOUR SYSTEM!

“It’s not helpful to run the energy of the world through your system.  It’s not helpful to attempt to carry the weight of the world on your back alone.  It’s not helpful to let the problems of the world overwhelm you.” ~ Rebecca Campbell

Aligned, Healthy, Action isn’t possible from a place of overwhelm.  

But how to deal with those feelings of overwhelm?

Start where you are.  Carry what’s in front of you.  Be responsible for what’s yours.  Do what you can.  Stay grounded.  Transmute what you can.  

Great Jenny, but how??????

Feel your feelings, so if you are angry look at what is triggering you.  Sit with it, feel it and acknowledge, “Okay, what am I feeling? What is moving through me?” So first of all, feel your feelings and give yourself space to feel your feelings.  

Then move and transmute them.  This can be dancing, putting on a song that you really like and letting your body move with the feelings inside you. It can be going for a walk, getting out in nature, doing some exercise, creating something.  Talking to a professional.

Do what fits you and that allows the feelings and energy to move through you and out.

Then ground yourself.  Take time to bring all the parts of you back to yourself, see yourself anchored to the earth with a strong cord or golden light and a cord coming from your crown up to the Universe.   Reclaim yourself, reclaim your power.

Tend to your Nervous system.  With everything that has happened over the last few years, many of us have hypersensitive nervous systems now and so learning ways to regulate it, to calm (takes us out of overwhelm, flight, fight, freeze or fawn), is vital.

I do this a lot with clients and circles that I hold, as well as all the groups.  

As this is a reading I can’t go into length or we would be here for ages, so let me give you 3 quick and easy ways.  Breath work.  Breathe out for 5, hold for 5, breathe in for 5, hold for 5.  Repeat 5 times.  (You can do this in a grocery store).  

Hum.  (yes, I said hum or sing).  As we hum it creates a different vibration in the body, as we sing the same thing happens and we take in more oxygen.

Cold water face plunge.  Big bowl of cold water, hold your breath, plunge your face in and blow bubbles galore – repeat 3 times.  

Then from that place of groundedness (yes that is a word), and calmness take grounded action.  What actions can you take (and they don’t have to be huge) to make yourself feel better?  Is it learning to say No?  Drinking more water?  Getting more rest?  Whatever it is that will help and support you.  

Small daily grounded action transmutes the energy of overwhelm into an energy that serves and nourishes you.  And remember that maybe your grounded action is to Rest.

Okay, I have chuntered on long enough.  Let’s crack on with the reading.  

When I asked the cards who wanted to talk and guide this week I was delighted to see that it was the delicious Spirit of the Animals.  So in case you may have never met them, let me introduce you.  “Animal Medicine, Animal Totems, and Animal Mascots have had cultural significance throughout our history.  Europeans adopted animals as tribal symbols that were later incorporated into crests for nations.  China has an animal associated with every birthday.  The Romans celebrated the eagle as the symbol for the empire.  Our ancestors observed the appearance of animals as omens and signs.  Shamans and mystics rely on spirit animal helpers.  Native Americans have vision quests to discover their personal animal totem.  School sports teams choose animal mascots.  It is no wonder that the interest in animals as emblems and how they relate to us still persists.  Animals as symbols live in our deepest memory.”

Okay delicious lovely, take a gorgeous deep breath and allow your shoulders to drop and your jaw to gently relax.  I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a place of stillness, a place filled with ease and flow, a place where you feel connected to earth and source.  From the place pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

If you need a bit more support there’s a wee guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

PENGUIN – AUTHENTIC

Penguin is the bird that cannot fly but instead swims.  They can see better underwater than on land, symbolising better access to the subconscious mind than usual.  

Penguins are full of surprises just like the people they represent.  The males and females experience role reversals.  Male penguins will sit on the eggs for months while their female counterparts hunt for food.  

Penguin urges you to adapt to extreme circumstances, break free from expectations and reinvent yourself.  Penguin says adapt, change, find your tribe, sing and celebrate your uniqueness.

Penguin people often feel awkward or out of place.  Tapping into Penguin energy can help you embrace your differences.  Self – acceptance is a big part of Penguin medicine.  They remind us that there is no right way to be!

Like all diving birds, Penguin relates to the truth that lies below the surface.  Maybe Penguin is telling you to go below, find your deeper truth and your most authentic self.  

These are things in life that really matter.  Finding like minded people (your tribe) will help you see your beauty as you see theirs.  

The wisdom of Penguin asks you to just be the unique and colourful person that you are!

Break free from others’ expectations.

Love your uniqueness.  Just be Yourself!

RAVEN – SHAMAN

If you have been a lover or ravens, collect their feathers, embrace their images, read their myths, observe them in nature and love black, then Raven is your totem.  

It is said when magic is near, Ravens appear.  Ravens are messengers from another world.  They bring us secret knowledge about magic and divination.  Ravens are the winged spirit advisors from our powerful subconscious.  Raven people conspire with the energies of the universe to help them create their dreams.  They experience continual learning and enlightenment.  Raven people do not fear the darkness.  The vast unknown is their storehouse of cosmic forces.  Others can be drawn to Raven people but also be fearful of what they know.

If Raven is your totem you are creative and love playful interaction.  You cultivate the natural philosopher within yourself.  You have access to the subconscious mind and this incredible knowledge is yours to retrieve.  If Raven is your totem, learn to meditate and reach deep within yourself to your own reservoir of wisdom.  Go into the dark and bring back the light.  Raven can fly you there and introduce you to riches of wisdom beyond your wildest imagination.

You are the creator and magician.

Use your gifts for good.

There is power in your wisdom and words.

Connect with the elemental spirits 

And glide through the void.

Claim your place as Keeper of the Mysteries.

RAM – PERSEVERANCE

The majestic bighorn sheep, or ram, is a master of agility and bravery.  They navigate rugged terrain at incredible speeds and land with confidence on the narrowest ledge.  

They have sharp vision and an acute sense of smell.  All of these traits help the bighorn sheep survive.  The male ram has a unique set of horns that spiral out from their head.  They never drop and they grow throughout the bighorn’s life, symbolising his fine mind.  It is a gift Ram people share with their totem.  Horns are an extension of the skull and have been called a natural antenna for intuition.  The ram is a competitive lover.  Be on guard for aggressive tendencies in your love life.  Jealousy should most certainly be avoided.

If Ram has chosen you, you have success on your side.  Ram urges you to use your fine mind to your advantage.  You will persevere and go to great heights to succeed.  Your reserves of strength and courage combined with your intuition will help you navigate the toughest circumstances.

Call upon Ram to make you brave in the face of risk and get ready to take a leap of faith.  Your many talents will help you land with sure success.

You have many gifts.

No problem can withstand

The power of your mind.

With patience you can reach your mountaintop.

Never give up and good luck will follow.  

Wow, what glorious guides for this week.  Wishing you a week filled with grounded soul fed action, rest, and clarity.   Talk to you later this week.  Big hugs and squeezes.
