Beltane is almost here! Super Full Moon in Scorpio!

Happy Magickal, Moonlit, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Manifesting Monday! How are you delicious lovely?

With Beltane on Saturday, May 1st, let’s take a little dip into what the heck Beltane is and whether you should pay attention to it or not. Beltane was thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar. Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

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

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

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

For those who are part of our glorious email community, on Thursday, there will be some simple rituals to play with to connect you in a deeper way to this fertile energy. And for the glorious Creatrix Circle members there will be rituals and magick pertaining to Beltane. (Let alone our Beltane celebration!)

Okay, Today is a glorious fat, delicious Super Full Moon in Scorpio which will shine a light on any area of our lives that is wanting us to be impulsive – itching to dash forward. As Lena shares: Put some practical thought into any important choices around changing or adjusting anything major in your life. Take this opportunity to tap into your own wisdom as well as to find a new courage for those changes you do want to make.

You may experience an inner tension that brings up any imbalance you feel around time – how you spend it, how you use your energy etc. Use this full moon time to take an inventory of what you value so you can set intentions and get support around what is most important to you. We are all ready to move on, to go forward and experience more freedom. And yet we are being pulled back to take yet another look at what needs to change, to be healed and to be released. So, be patient, ask what can be healed, and do the work so you can move into the future from a solid and practical foundation and not one built on impulsive behavior.

So for example on this glorious Full Moon I invite you to take a situation in your life; could be a relationship, work, financial, travel – whatever you chose and then write on the top of a piece of paper “My Ideal…….(fill in the blank). “ Then on one side of the paper write 10 things you don’t want, about in your ideal…….. Then when you have done that list, review it and ask yourself “So What Do I Want?” On the other side of the paper take each “don’t want point” and ask what DO I want (in other words a reframe). For example if you were writing about your ideal new job and said:- I don’t want rigid hours, I don’t want negligent management etc. The reframe would be – my hours are flexible, my management is understanding and reliable. Get it? As you make your way through each point, please remember to cross out the “Don’t want list”, and then light a candle and burn that sucker up. Offer it up, release it and realise that you now have a clarity list and these are the words that you use to describe it, which creates different thoughts, which creates a different Vibe, which creates different RESULTS.

Okay, I have chuntered on so let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide I giggled when I saw the glorious guides of Oracles of Shadow and Light were front and centre. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to) Wisdom for Misfits, Mystics, Seekers, and Wanderers. Bittersweet…Unheard…Unconventional…Rebellious…Cheeky…Whimsical…Invisible.

They’re not the words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they? Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream. They do not fit in. They have had moments of despair. And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all! They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and to consult with an oracle that acknowledges your individuality and strange genius!

How’s that for a warm welcome?

The crystals that wiggled and wobbled are:- Black Moonstone – a powerful connection to the Divine Feminine, Black Madonna, helpful to the oversensitive. Moonstone – mystery, self discovery. Mystic Merlinite – can awaken those parts of the mind that are dormant and activate the full potential of the mind.

So dear one, take a moment to get really rooted and present. Allow your breath to find its natural rhythm and just BE. As you breathe slowly allow the image of the Beltane fires to burble up in your minds eye and as you watch the flames dance and rise to the sky ask “What do you need to know this week.”

If you need help going a wee bit deeper there is a fun guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

ANGEL OF TIME

The Angel of Time looks very fierce and stern, and that’s because you need to hear her message. You see, if she appeared to you in a soft guise, it would be too easy for you to overlook her message and just continue on as if she had never visited. The truth is that you are forcing yourself beyond your energetic limits at this time – working too hard, self-loving and connecting with the Universe way too little.

So, she has appeared to remind you of what it is you are turning your world into: one big machine, where you are one cog in it. You are an important, soulful, beloved being, but the world of work is not going to end if you step away from its mechanism for a while. “It is time,” she says, “for a time out!” Will you listen?

“I’m getting straight to the point here, because someone really has to tell you. Stop giving so much to your work. All your time. Your energy. Your passion. Take better care of your health. This is the time to fulfill all those promises you’ve made to yourself but barely made even the effort to keep. Meditate, eat well, take up gentle exercise, and change unhealthy emotional patterns that are compromising your well being – these are the challenges you need to set yourself. I thank you in advance, for a happy you makes this world a far better place.!”

CANDY CANE ANGEL

The Candy Cane Angel is in charge of letting you know when it is time for some little luxuries that will reconnect you with your self-love and self-worth. She, too, holds back from giving to herself, as she is such an earnest and industrious little angel – but her message is always clear; it is time for some fun!

As she says clearly to you “You know what my problem is? And you know what your problem is? No? Well, let me tell you. Our problem is that we both feel guilty about giving ourselves pleasure. See this little treat in my hands? It’s not bad, is it? It’s not evil, is it? But can I bring myself to just sit down and taste every moment of its sugary sweet delights? No. I have to wonder if it’s the right time. If I have done enough to earn this treat. To wonder why I should get this when so many do not have a single candy cane for their own selves! I torment myself with these things – and so do you! How about we make a deal? Next time you ponder a gift to yourself: a massage, a treat, a spiritual workshop, a delicious meal, time to laugh with a friend, a long rest or nap, meditation time, a space clear…..know that when you energetically tell yourself “I am way too busy for that indulgence,” you are really saying, ‘I do not deserve that!’ Well, let’s decide that you do! I am about to have my treat. I now charge you with the same quest. Give yourself that which you have been denying yourself. You do deserve it!”

Do not rationalise or talk yourself out of it any longer. Step out of the consciousness of lack and into the consciousness of “I deserve,” and grant yourself this lovely moment of luxury. It’s time for some joie de vivre and enjoyment to restage a grand entrance into your life!

NAUTILUS PRINCESS

A big-eyed beautiful mermaid, surrounded by her floating, rich red hair, holds tight to a nautilus shell……She is an underwater (emotional) princess, and she is growing in ways she never thought she would – because soon she is to be the queen, and she must make decisions. She feels uncertain about how she will perform when she is elevated and unsure of whether she can wield her power. She is very thoughtful as she contemplates the future – but all around her are the symbols of her future success.

As she shares with you – “I know I am strong, but most people think of me as gentle, kind, and good. Now that I am to be ruler, what if they see me as power-hungry, dominating, greedy or controlling? Whatever the thoughts of those around me, there will be change as I change, and I will continue to hold fast to my nautilus, as it ever reminds me to grow in ways that are in tune with my purpose, my integrity, and what I feel is right. I vow to be steadfast and true, despite the challenges that are heading my way. I vow not to misuse my power. But use it I will, and as a result I, like you, will gow in ways that are in tune with my true self and true purpose.

You may be a very gentle, appeasing, and timid soul who is facing a challenge. You are being asked by the Universe to step up into a more “senior” and conspicuous role, and you are concerned about whether you can be powerful and still be a good person. The pearls here signify that you must act from a pure place, and from a natural place, and treat this quest as a sacred task. The nautilus says you will grow in ways that are perfect, and perfectly proportioned, just as the nautilus is. And this is a natural result for you – expect to grow more and move over time. This is a time of spiritual and emotional transformation, which could come to you via a friend who is older or more experienced – she will share her skills and some of her secrets with you. You could be about to experience a deeper friendship, meet a teacher who really opens your mind to a new realm of discovery, or find a trainer who can coach you in such a way that your potential blooms strong and fast.

Dignity, truth, and wisdom are your best guides. It is now time to take yourself and your potential seriously.

Wowzer! What glorious guides for this delicious time. So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a glorious release today, a week filled with ease, effortlessness and flow. If you want to receive the Beltane Blessing Booklet – make sure you are on the email list. Have a stupendous Full Moon and Beltane!

Worm Moon, Orcas and Seals, and Hippitty Hoppitty Bunnies!!!

Jenny Heston · 11:11 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Magnificent, Musical, Mischievous, Manifesting, March Monday!

How are you deliciously lovely? So much to explore with the shift in energy for April and the lovely Full Moon that happened yesterday and Easter! However, first let me share about the huge pod of Orcas I saw this morning!

As I do every morning I go to the beach with the doggo. So I got there bright and early and was walking along the beach reciting mantra and picking up rocks when all of a sudden I looked up and coming around the point was a massive super pod of Orcas! (Apparently there was a plankton blush with the warmer weather) and they were majestic! Undulating in and out of the water, blowing water up in the air – it was awe inspiring! I mean seriously, how can you watch these majestic beasts and not be blown away? Then all of a sudden as the last Orca rounded the point 4 HUGE sea lions slid off the rocky point and started attacking the last Orca! I was gob smacked! There was all sorts of noise, splashing bodies flipping up and around and tails smacking the water. I have never seen the like! Then weirdly enough within about 4 minutes it was all done and when I looked around the Orcas and sea lions had vanished, and the ocean was still.

Wild right? And absolute blarney – happy early April Fools Day!!!

Okay, I have to ask, am I the only demented one that loves April Fools day and likes to play practical jokes and little twists of the mind with people? In my world, if it is harmless as long as no one gets hurt (possibly confused), then it’s all good. When the kids were younger I altered all the clocks in the house by 2 hours and so the kids dashed to the bus stop and waited, and waited (as they were there 2 hours before a bus would be there.) I will be honest, I let them wait for a good 30 minutes and when I pulled up in the vehicle they were highly concerned they had missed the bus, something had happened, where was the bus? (I know, what a horrid mother I am). So I explained to them what had happened, thanked them for the saran wrapped toilet and the salt in the sugar and we all went for a yummy breakie!

Thus gorgeous one, Happy April Fool’s Day! (Playing and laughing are so important, if you’re not doing it, then you need to start (just saying)). Or come for a visit and we will make it gigglicious and glorious fun and hopefully see Orcas!

Yesterday was the glorious Worm Moon (isn’t that a great name?)

Do you know why it’s called Worm Moon? The worm moon gets its unique name because earthworms begin to resurface at this time of year. It is also considered the last full moon of winter, but in 2021, it marks the beginning of spring. Also known as Seed Moon and the Crow Moon, The Worm Moon is the time of growth, creativity, and inspiration. Falling after Ostara, the Worm Moon can also be a time for rebirth, or a time to picture that creative project you’ve been thinking about for months, or the new way you want to be in this world. On the Worm Moon, visualize your intentions and the outcome you’re searching for when it comes to that project and make plans for how to see it through.

So if you want to take some time to do a bit of releasing, and then visualising with inspiration and creativity, I highly suggest it (you still have time.)

This weekend is Easter and I love the fact that hot cross buns are out in all the stores. I will confess, I have a “thing” for them, no clue why, but I really do. I cut them in half, toast them and slather them with butter and then everything seems right with the world at that moment in time! And I will be honest, I can eat a ton of them!

So with no egg hunt in sight, jokes it is!

How do you make rabbit stew? Make it wait for 4 hours.

What kind of music does the Easter Bunny like? Hip Hop.

Why do we paint Easter eggs? Because it’s easier than trying to wallpaper them.

What do you get when you pour hot water down a rabbit hole? Hot cross bunnies!

Why did the Easter bunny cross the road? Because the chicken had its Easter eggs!

Hey, nowhere in this did I say they were good jokes lolol! So how are you going to celebrate this Easter? Time outside, visit with zoom time with family, a special dinner, a hike, relaxing and watching it all happen?

Okay, enough chuntering away about chocolate, eggs and hot cross buns, let’s get on with the reading.

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share with you this week, I was delighted to see that the Earth Warriors Oracle guides were most adamant. Now if these amazing guides are new to you, please let me introduce you to them (as it’s rude not to).

There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

Woosah, breath that in. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

Okay gorgeous bean, let’s take a moment to just settle and BE. Let your breath find it’s perfect path coming from the belly, not the chest and let your shoulders relax. As you settle in, invite into your mind’s eye the energy of creation, rebirth, play and imagination. Ask yourself what would best support you with those energies this week.

If you want to deepen it a bit there is a lovely wee guided visualisation for you.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper in your ear, tug on your heart strings and trust your choice.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, yes?

ALAKOA

Spirit of the Warrior

Though you yearn for peace, you recognise that, without truth, genuine peace can never be. Even if it triggers an upheaval of transformation, the need to set things right is strong in you. This is the inner drive of the spiritual warrior; the compelling soul needs to uphold truth, goodness and justice. You will fight for these things because that is your way, Spirit Warrior. Trust, see and feel the positive impact that you are making in the world. You are relentless and the Divine is with you.

Do not give up, If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart and your heart in awareness of what it is that is inspiring you. Do you feel alone on your quest? Look for the legions of wings in spirit and upon the earth that fight alongside you, fearless and ferocious with love. Be uplifted by your fellow Spirit Warriors, beloved one. Feel the joy of their love and unity with you. You have access to the divine power that conquers any obstacle, wins every battle, and secures every victory.

If a Spirit Warrior tries to fight from a place of despair and darkness, doubt and hate, the battle will become destructive to their soul. When you fight for love from a place of joy, Spirit Warrior, the battle opens your beautiful fierce heart. It uplifts your mind and empowers your soul with the might of divine grace that accomplishes all pursuits and wins every war.

PADMA SUNDARI

Out of Darkness, the Light is Born

The light is powerful enough to survive exposure to the darker side of humanity and remain pure, empowered and effective. Trust in your spiritual purpose as light in this world. Trust particularly in your ability to bring purity, order; grace and light to disorder, chaos and destruction. The Divine is ever by your side and ever within your heart, assisting you with this higher purpose in all ways.

All issues can be healed through the unlimited recourse and creative resourcefulness of the Divine. You are destined to be part of the creative solution for any issue that you have in your life or that exists in the world and touches your heart. The issue only exists so that divine genius can resolve it! Struggles are sometimes the best way for us to learn something we need to understand for our life journey. Trust that when you ask for help, even apparently impossible situations can be turned around. With willing human engagement and divine grace, there is more than enough light, healing, creative innovation, wisdom and energy available to keep Mother Earth and all her creatures, including humanity, thriving. Never give up your hope and trust in what is possible – nor your willingness to act upon that hope and trust.

Part of your spiritual path requires that you walk your talk and live in a way that shows optimism and practicality. When something’s not working, we don’t need to hide from it in shame. We face it because we have spiritual self-esteem and self-confidence. Trust in divine timing, realising that there is far-reaching good about yourself and your presence in the world. It’s not about being perfect, it’s just about taking that next step for you.

LOLO

Stand in the Light

You are unique. You are a divine and beautiful being. You stand apart from the crowd. Sometimes this evokes jealousy or desire in others who want to possess your light and beauty as their own. You need never fear another or believe that they can harm you. Allow yourself to be true to who you are. Do not try to hide your inner light and beauty. You are meant to be seen. Your soul is nurtured and protected by your love for the Great Spirit.

Don’t avoid the spotlight or try to hide yourself nor dull your light to appease another or your own fears. Your true inner divine light and beauty is meant to help others, and the only way that can occur is if you allow yourself to fully be and express it. Do not shrink away from your magnificence when you feel challenged. Instead step it up to an entirely new level of boldness! You have a gentle nature, but you are strong. If you have become obsessed with the beauty or power of another, it’s time to come back to your own divine beauty, to unearth it, explore it, express it and let it shine. Trying to blend in wild rain the energy from you. LEt those who are attracted to your light adapt to your level of divine expression. You are the benchmark, and they will evolve to reach you.

What nurtures and nourishes you, what feels good for your heart, body and soul, is also what protects you. You actually don’t need to do anything else for effective protection than place yourself in the divine beauty of what you love absolutely and completely.

Yes, yes, yes! Glorious guides for this week. So my delicious lovely, I wish for you daft pranks, laughter, connection and ease. Have a wonderful April Fools Day and paint an egg for Easter (yes sharpies are included for painting). Big hugs and squeezes, see you in a few weeks as I’m playing in the woods on Easter weekend.

International Women’s Day, New Moon in Pisces, Creatrix Circle Doors are Open and Equinox bundles are here!

Jenny Heston · 6:06 am ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Meaningful, Miraculous, Manifesting Monday! How are you delicious lovely? The Equinox is almost here and I can most certainly feel the energy building and getting ready to bud – I’m so excited, kinda wiggly like a labrador puppy! Even more so because I had 3600lbs of dirt delivered on Friday to create glorious gardens and I have been hauling it one bucket at a time!

We have so much to explore this week! Firstly, Creatrix Circle doors open today until March 21st.

I’m so excited! If you have been feeling a call to dive deeper into yourself and your own magick, whilst being supported by a like minded tribe then Creatrix Circle is for you!

Also, Secondly, thank you for all your interest in if there are going to be Equinox bundles. You betcha! As you know I love, love, love Equinox – that magnificent time when we are in a place of equality and stillness. Where magick is created. The bundles are ready and there is the delicious OMM (Ostara Magickal Manual) for the Northern hemisphere. MMM (Mabon Magickal Manual) for the Southern hemisphere. 30+ pages of ritual, spells and all sorts of goodness to really harness the energy of this switch and to walk with the forces that surround you. Thirdly, we have International Women’s Day and then New Moon in Pisces! Phew!

Girdle up Betty!

So let’s start with today, International Women’s Day! Did you know that the first International Women’s Day occurred in 1911, supported by over one million people? (Think about that, the year alone). Why do we celebrate IWD? We celebrate this global day of recognition to acknowledge and celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and girls, and to raise awareness of the work left to be done. I love the “theme” for this IWD – Choose to Challenge.

A challenged world is an alert world. Individually, we’re all responsible for our own thoughts and actions – all day, every day. We can all choose to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality. We can all choose to seek out and celebrate women’s achievements. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.

From challenge comes change, so let’s all choose to challenge. Thus I invite you to strike the #ChooseToChallenge pose with your hand high stating what you stand for to show your commitment to choose to challenge inequality, call out bias, question stereotypes, and help forge an inclusive world.

This Saturday is the glorious Pisces New Moon. As Forever shares:- This New Moon sends waves of poetry into our cosmic skies. It carries soft, ethereal energy that inspires us to dream, create, and imagine a better reality for ourselves.

The reality we feed is the reality that flourishes, so be sure your thoughts, words, and actions are aligned with all that you desire, particularly under the influence of this March New Moon.

Take a moment to close your eyes and envision a better life for yourself and for the world. Close your eyes and visualize peace radiating through your heart and the heart of every being, both known and unknown.

Buried within each and every one of us are lifetimes of ancestral wisdom. Wisdom of the lives we have led before this one, and the knowledge we have of our true nature and existence.

This is the perfect New Moon to acknowledge this deep, and perhaps forgotten wisdom.

Within, you know the way. Within, you have the answers you seek.

If that feels like a lot to take in, kick your mind out of the way and open your heart, let your heart guide you.

Okay, enough chuntering. When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week I was not surprised to see the glorious Divine Circus Oracle hop up and down (as seriously life feels a tad like a circus right now). Amazing crystals came to join in and the most soft and sweet pussy toe flowers joined right along.

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them. These glorious guides are playful, but deep. They think outside the box and invite you to do the same. If you have never met these glorious guides, please let me introduce you. “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 a moment 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. “

Okay, let’s settle in shall we, it doesn’t have to be for long. But I invite you to get still with yourself. To really just BE for a moment, to let all the cares, worries, to do things just drop away. Just BE. As you slow down your breathing allow the thoughts to scatter off to the side and really invite your wise inner self to speak to you about where you are right now, the energy of Equinox. What do you need to know as we mark this time? What can support you in the coming week? To help there is a lovely guided visualisation where we do some demolition and construction. (No tools required).

Okay, did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

THE PROUD PIERETTE

If you were proud of who you are and everything you have learned in your life, free from shame, guilt or judgement, what would you choose for yourself today? The choices you make for yourself from a place of feeling good are going to be more loving and helpful than anything from a place of self-judgement. You’ve nothing to regret, you’ve learned a lot and you are a beautiful unique being on a wild divine journey. Be kind to yourself. Keep your head up! Then it will be easier to keep growing and glowing.

If you feel that life is getting you down, or you should have, or could have, made different decisions in life – you are doing a great job! You are meant to have learning experiences. What matters is that you choose to learn. And you do! In your own time and your own way, you make sense of things, and you grow wiser and stronger as a person.

If you feel any ridicule, judgement or shaming is coming from those around you – trust you are stronger and wilder and more beautiful and true than any of that mean-spirited fearfulness. Let the mud that is being slung slide right off or remain stuck in the hands of those throwing it your way. Keep your sense of inner dignity intact. Never make yourself smaller to placate the fear in another’s heart. Take pride in who you are. Be proud to be you! And know that this is a way to respect and honour the creative loving power of the universe that created you!

BRILLIANT VIRGIN

In a world where we are bombarded daily with differing opinions and ideas, remaining true to you and your own point of view is nothing short of brilliant. Let go of confusion, distortion, comparison and compromise. You do not need to compare yourself to another or measure up to anyone or anything else. What matters to you and your successful life journey is to be in touch with your own truths. You know what you feel, no matter what anyone else says or believes. Stay true to you!

We have to trust that the inner vision, the hope, the dream within us, is going to be strong enough to stand the rigours of birth, and be able to come to life in the world. Sometimes we have to trust that we are enough, that we have goodness, value and worth, and so are worth the time, effort, patience and commitment required to transform our ideas into realities.

Stay true to you and your course. Do not allow yourself to be swayed by another, no matter how well-meaning their intentions may be or how impressive their arguments may seem. Do not water down the strength of your vision, your dream. You are meant to be birthing something unique into being. The world needs your originality! Pray for courage. Trust yourself.

ROOSTER MAMA

Rooster Mama is her own person. She’s a rebel, a maverick, a renegade – an offbeat individual who dances to her own rhythms. She is the authentic eccentric who doesn’t fall in with the plans other people make for her, but creates her own consciousness with optimism and flair for self expression. She says you are unique, positive and rebellious too.

In a world where we are taught we need permission to do almost anything, it takes guts to decide to give yourself unconditional permission to be unconditionally yourself! When you do, however, an exhilarating sense of freedom, excitement and happiness bubbles up from within.

Permission to be strangely beautiful, weirdly wonderful and divinely eccentric creates charisma, energy and inspired ideas. Your own opinion of yourself becomes more important than the voices of fear that want to control you because they are afraid of the power within you.

You have compassion for that which is enslaved by fear, but you don’t buy into it. Rooster Mama sees this divine defiance in you and how it empowers you to make your own choices, to choose your own consciousness, the power to live your life in whatever way you see fit, whether others understand or not.

It’s time to shake things up, redefine yourself, even if that means letting things get a bit wild in the henhouse for a while. She reminds you to be bold, to be proud and strut your stuff.

Wowzer, fabulous guides for where we are at and what is coming down the pipe! Remember please to be gentle with your gorgeous self. If you want to get a bit more support and don’t feel called to join Creatrix Circle yet, the Equinox bundles will help massively. Sending you huge love and squeezes. Breathe glorious one, breathe. Remember to come from your Heart.

March, Meditation and Mundanity.

Jenny Heston · 12:01 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Marvelous, Mellow, Momentous, Meteoric, Mirthful March Monday delicious lovely! That’s right we are in a new month – March, the promise of Spring!

Can you feel the energy slowly building- the energy of rebirth, release and rejuvenation? I sure can and thankfully Mumma Nature has been showing off with swaths of snowdrops carpeting the hillsides and massive clumps of wild daffodils popping up in the most random places. I so love their bright yellow heads that bob and dance in the breeze or the rain, they literally scream “Spring is coming”, which it is with Spring Equinox on the 20th! Whoot!

The birds have come flooding back and they happily empty out the bird feeder once every 3 days (greedy little buggers), and the other afternoon, as I sat out in the sun pondering the design of my Witches garden, I laughed to watch two chubby, chubby little nuthatches give themselves a thorough scrub down in the bird bath. They were filled with pure glee and throwing water everywhere.

I love this time of year. There’s a glorious sense of promise, growth, celebration and I love, love, love it! What signs of Spring are you seeing around you?

Many of you have messaged and emailed asking when the doors to Creatrix Circle are going to open again and if there is going to be an Equinox reading special. Well, I am pleased to let you know that Creatrix Circle will be opening her doors on March 8th until March 21st (the day after equinox and the first time since December). Thus, if you want to join a circle of like minded, amazing women, deepen into your practice and listen to the messages of your DNA that speak to you of your witch, wise woman, alchemist side – come join us! Also, there will be an Equinox reading special from March 15th until March 21st. I hope that answers your questions.

So, I have a question for you – meditation – do you do it?

We all know that meditation helps us to destress, relax and lower our blood pressure, but it also connects us to our higher self. The wise one, the teacher and the guide that is in us. It also connects us to the Divine on a clear channel that is not filled with static. Yet………….. Yet many have shared with me that “they don’t have the time”, the time to go sit on the special meditation cushion, with the candle lit and quiet reigning around them. I agree, life can be busy, but why does meditation have to happen in such a controlled environment?

With this Full Moon in Virgo that happened on Saturday, we were invited to connect to our Higher Self. Fabulous, but if we don’t have time to manicure the details to make it pleasing for us, how does that happen? At our Full Moon gathering in Creatrix Circle we explored that and an invitation for the next two weeks of a reframe was thrown down.

Virgo, is the sign associated with those routines that comprise most of our days— working, running errands, preparing meals—as well as the habits we form through repetition of those routines. For the most part, we regard these habits and routines as entirely separate from our spiritual lives. But something is being lost, I think, in our determination to avoid these humble occupations; it’s often the small, ordinary tasks that offer the most accessible route from unconscious habit to mindful ritual, as well as the most frequent opportunities for attempting the journey.

Intention, and consciousness. You can sweep the kitchen floor each evening and hardly notice doing it, beyond a vague desire to have it over with as quickly as possible. But imagine you instead give your full attention to sweeping the floor carefully and thoroughly, visualizing the debris and disorder of your mind being swept away with the bread crumbs. Feel the difference?

Why make such a big deal out of sweeping a floor? Because we don’t live for frigging ever! Do you really have five minutes every day—more than thirty hours each year!—to waste on meaningless, unconscious activity? Why not use those five minutes as a sort of practical prayer, to celebrate being alive?

Ritual is not magic; it is ordinary, everyday action performed with magical intention. It is the union of practical and spiritual.

Ritual is ordinary action carefully performed with extraordinary intention. It is how we honor the invisible with visible gestures.

During the next two weeks between the Virgo Full Moon and the next New Moon, ferret out those circumstances that bore you, irritate you, or overwhelm you. Where in your life do you encounter drudgery, the feeling you’re “just going through the motions”? Where are you most likely to be annoyed or short tempered with others? What ordinary situations make you feel so overwhelmed, you no longer know how to untangle them? These are situations that suggest unconsciousness. They are situations which, if approached with intention rather than a sense of distasteful obligation, present the greatest avenue for your spiritual growth right now. Willing to give it a try and turn Mundanity into a delicious conversation with the Divine?

Okay, I have chuntered on so let’s crack on with the reading.

So interestingly enough when I went to the cards to ask who wanted to guide and teach this week, I was tickled when The Oracle of the Dragonfae were adamant. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you:- 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.

We all need some wisdom and magic in our worlds on a daily basis.

Ready? I invite you to breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth for a few deep, long breaths. As you breathe, see in your mind’s eye that everything you do is a living prayer. And remember, all that you touch you change and that all that you change, Changes You!. Breathe this way for however long you have and when your shoulders have relaxed away from your ears and your jaw is loose pick the card or cards that resonate for you at this time.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s have a look shall we?

THE LADY ALFREDA

Know you this: that whatsoever you send out, you attract back to the power of three. Intent has energy, as do thoughts, feelings and emotions, and once released, this vibrational thought field radiates out and attracts back to you that which was sent out. This is the Law of the Threefold return, an ancient Law that the wise ones have known of for many a year, though many of the humans have refused to listen to its wisdom.

So, if you cry out an injustice, and if you are in pain, you must clear the reasons these manifestations of the Law were brought to you, were drawn to you, by you. As you think, so will you live. As you do, others will do unto you. This is the magickal law.

Do not be afraid of this truth: see it as a source of freedom. There is no blame in this karmic truth, for all that you send out will return. There is no other place for it to go. Your own underworld initiation is ending soon, and the dark will soon come to be but a place full of rest, release, wisdom and deep, ancient knowledge. The Law is the Law. And the Lady’s Law is love unto all. Follow this, and the Threefold Return will work its magicks.

Do you not know the truth? Your own underworld is not hell, but your dark time in the cauldron of your experience, your growth, your understanding, your knowledge. Now you have the knowledge of the Law, will you work with it, knowing it to be truth?

It is time to get real and own what you have previously blamed on others. This does not mean blaming yourself. Instead work on shifting your own karmic residue (Dragonfae are wonderful at this!) and understanding the connections between what you have sent out and what you have created. Look to your own intent. Make friends with your shadow and thank it for the lessons.

MELUSINE

Keys are rare in the realm of spirit; but I now provide you with a key that will open the door to who you truly are. Your true feelings about self-worth and self-love have been hidden, locked away for years, but now they will be revealed, and healed, for all time. For there is a part of you that you feel is not suitable to be shown to others, particularly in romantic relationships. You feel that this part of you is unacceptable and lacking in beauty.

However, this part of you, in being denied, is causing pain and guilt to surface within relationships where there need be none. You deserve to be loved for all of you, for the parts that are claws and thorns, for your lines and your grief, for your irritability and your sadnesses.

I Melusine, do not say to go into these parts and stay there, but know that what you consider to be unacceptable is in fact part of your beauty – and true beauty is wholeness. Come forward and be revealed, and never again mistrust or reject a portion of who you are. Embrace your scars and flaws, and see them as wonderful differences that only make you unique, and very real. Open your heart, unlock the door and step out of the enchanted chamber in which you have hidden this aspect of who you are. Love all of you, your body and soul, your mind and spirit, your ancestry and your trials and challenges.

You are perfect, whole and complete, with the unique stamp of this individual body and soul upon you. I will help you love yourself more truly and deeply than ever before. Take this key, and unlock the secret parts of you. Let them see the light, and know that you are safer for doing so than you have ever been before, in any of your numerous lifetimes.

DREAMCATCHER

I am the Dragonfae being who comes in the night, who travels through the dimensions to the doorway of the worlds. I will stand while you sleep and send you messages that you can unravel in your waking hours. All that is no longer needed will come to me, if you allow it, and I will catch it in my web between my hands, lit up by the light that travels from the solar plexus of this Universe, the being you call Sun, but which I call Bel. This Bel shines through your day and at night I reflect that light into you, cleansing what is irritating and difficult for you, but keeping all that which you need to go forward.

There is nothing to fear from the presence of we dream beings…I am yours, and in your dreams we will journey, we will explore, we will share and we will be happy together. I will help you reach your goals and if you believe, great blessing from Spirit will be yours. We are part of the same tribe and your blood is mine. This dreamcatcher is at your service.

Every night you allow me to visit, I will be your protector, your solar plexus will be opened a little further and your light will shine a little brighter in this world. I can help you see the threads of your future and to follow them. Let me into your dreams. Invite me in. This is my request of you.

Holy Hannah, gotta love the messages for this week – intention, being yourself and allowing support in your dream space. So gorgeous one, I wish for you a week filled with the signs of Spring to remind you of rebirth, change and delight. I also invite you to look upon the things that you consider “mundane or drudgery” as an opportunity to connect with something bigger than yourself. Sending you big hugs and squeezes and see you next week!

Mercury Retrograde. Imbolc is Here! Post Leo Full Moon.

Jenny Heston · 7:41 pm ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Meditative, Mind-Blowing, Meritorious, Musical, Motivational, Mesmerising, Manifesting Monday! (How was that for alliteration?)

How are you delicious lovely? How was the amazing full moon in Leo for you? After a lovely hiatus filled with creating, writing and just cocooning, it’s good to be back.

So grab a cuppa and let’s natter, yes?

In case you weren’t aware Mercury went retrograde yesterday and will be this way until February 21st. Whoohoo! Now don’t run to the closet, let’s just gently unpack this puppy (so to speak).

Mercury will retrograde in the sign of Aquarius, which is a new energy for us. For the last few years, Mercury has mainly gone retro in water signs. However, throughout 2021 the theme is air signs. Which is interesting as Mercury is ruled by the element of air and earth, so having it retrograde in one of its ruling elements may intensify the experience. So let me share what Tanaaz has to share.

We may feel mentally foggy, confused, or lack the clarity that is needed to make decisions.

Whenever Mercury enters retrograde, especially in an air sign, we have to work a little harder to tame our monkey-mind, and be sure we are not spiraling into a loop of overthinking, or getting trapped in limiting beliefs.

Our task during this Mercury Retrograde season, and the ones to come, will be to acknowledge any mental chatter, observe what needs to be looked at, and learn how to release and let go of the rest.

A prime example was on Saturday over in Creatrix Circle we were having an incredible Imbolc Workshop, yet – for the half hour prior, everything was going to hell in a hand basket. Technology, mind sets, you name it. But come go time – all was good.

So let’s talk about Imbolc!

Okay Imbolc is today!!! Now you may be scratching your head and thinking to yourself – what the heck did she say? Imbolc (yes it does sound like it’s looks). Imbolc is a Celtic fire festival celebrating the emerging life in the world around us as well as the Goddess Brigid who represents the fire of creativity, the protective hearth fire and her firewheel all of which cleanse and purify. Imbolc is a celebration, because for those of us in the mid winter it promises us emergence, growth, renewal and hope and massive cleansing and purification. Imbolc is the halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox and occurs on February 1st/2nd.

Okay Jenn, what’s that got to do with me?

Well whether you realise it or not your body is connected to the seasons, to the energy underneath you, around you, above you and in you. Imbolc is one of the seasonal changes on the Wheel of the Year. However, the Wheel of the Year is more than just the seasonal changes from spring to summer to fall to winter. It also encompasses the 8 holidays, or sabbats. Each of these holidays has its own energy and its own place in the cycle that influences.

Imbolc brings us the burgeoning Spring energy that feels like a whisper or a possible promise, it’s the gestation time. Imbolc literally means – in the belly. The time to get clear on what you want to create or bring into your life. If you want to go deeper and explore some rituals and more information on Imbolc, there are some lovely ones here!

Can you feel the fertility that is approaching?

It’s pulsing everywhere, flowers are starting to push up, leaves are gently welling up into buds, seeds will need to be planted. Thus, imagine yourself like a glorious garden – what do you need to push the dross aside and stretch? To really bloom, expand and grow?

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were most adamant. I was tickled as yesterday I went exploring the woods, hung out with the trees and just noticed all the little random daffs and crocus that are pushing their way up with vigour!

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it’s 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.” Lovely!

The crystals that woggled and waggled (like miniature labradors) are:- Bloodstone, K-2 Jasper, Chrysocolla.

You ready? I invite you to just BE and BREATHE (please don’t tell me you don’t have time, as you do). Allow any heaviness to gently drop to the ground as you breathe long, slow and deep. Let it become cosmic compost to feed and nurture something new. Keep breathing this way and think about the seeds you want to sow in the Springtime, what are they? If you need some more support or want to go deeper, there is a lovely guided visualisation for you.

When you are ready and you feel relaxed, pick the card or cards that call to you, nudge you or kick you in the arse!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

ISA

Winter has descended upon the Faery Forest. You have ceased struggling and fighting to change what is outside of yourself. Because you have relinquished the battle, you have won the war within yourself. You are now suspending activity and being in the moment. Through this stillness and inner consciousness, you are beginning to understand so much of where you have been and where you will go – and because you are fully in the present and allowing, you can also come to a deeper, more peaceful understanding of what it is you want, value, and desire.

This is a moment of complete stillness and simply be-ing: a long moment where you are completely present. You are as still as a chrysalis, hanging seemingly static from a branch, fragile and mysterious. Like the chrysalis, you will “do” nothing – nothing at all, except become yourself. Your transformation is being worked invisibly, on the inside, and when the time is right, you will share it with the world.

In a situation where you seem to have no control, no power, you are learning the most valuable form of power there is – self mastery. You pause with dignity and strength, and simply by doing this you create the right conditions for the right change.

This time will ultimately bring great peace, wisdom, and choices that enrich your life, others lives, and the healing of the world.

THE GREEN MAN

Not so long ago, all was quiet, dark, and cold…..but something has changed, and it will manifest into your world in significant ways – through you, and all around you. This is a time of renewal, a time of new beginnings and connections for you. Your energy will be extending itself easily, and you will fall in love with the new world you are creating. This is a time for you to actively pursue what it is you wish to create in your life and to acknowledge the presence of the powerful new energies all about you.

Each day will bring these changes, and it is as if life force itself is surging through you, and every cell radiates this bright, strong, fierce new energy.

To be effective, this energy must be directed – not tamed, but given places to flow into – and thus you must choose and shape the energies you are experiencing. Nature and its energies shall pour through you and it is necessary for you to quickly begin to shape these forces in meaningful ways.

This is also a time when you no longer see sharp distinctions between what is outside of yourself and what is within – you feel linked, connected, a part of a great natural magickal whole, and this empowers you into brave, open-hearted action.

Go forward and thrive, dear one!

FRIGGA

You are at a moment of great good fortune in this lifetime. You have created for yourself more than enough, and now the goodness that is flowing to you must be invested and used wisely. It is easy to squander youth or beauty or opportunity, as they seem such an eternal gift – but this card is here to share with you that it is time to ensure that this wonderful moment is worked with wisely. Invest in yourself and in your health, create more wealth, learn and study, and also offer your support and investment to worthy others. Take care of yourself, and truly make yourself into who and what you have always wanted to become.

This time will come around again, but it will not last forever – and so Frigga wishes for you to consider the gifts you are being given, the bounty coming to you, and consider with great vision and earnestness what will provide for you and your loved ones in the years to come. Be ready to act!

Your future can be created now – and the present can become so rich and enduring that nothing can shake your ability to continue prospering – your skills, your home, your mind, your body.

Take care of yourself, and watch the good fortune that flows from your wise investment, for many years to come.

Gosh, this made me smile as it’s positively perfect for the energy at this time! So my delicious lovely, I have so many wishes for you this week. May you gift yourself time to focus on your soul’s desires and write them down! May you remember that Spring is coming and take this time to prepare (I have something amazing for you come Spring Equinox!) May you be well, May you be safe, May you be at peace, May you live with ease. Huge hugs and love! (Oh yes, and glorious mugs of tea!)
