Sturgeon Full Moon in Pisces and a Reset button!

Happy, happy glorious last Magickal, Marvelous, Miraculous Monday of August delicious lovely! (Holy Hannah this month has dashed by like a herd of wild horses with their tails on fire). We have had months and months of hot weather (brutally hot as far as this redhead is concerned) and weeks and weeks of smoke. In fact the smoke was so thick the other day I had to remind myself that I live on the side of a mountain, there is in fact a huge lake somewhere down there and a city as well, because you couldn’t see any of it. It’s felt very much like being trapped in a Victorian Jack the Ripper movie where the fog is so thick you can’t see anything until it’s right on top of you! (Thankfully no Jack the Ripper was lurking in the smoke). With this smoke the energy is radically different and it feels cooler as the sun isn’t able to burn through it and send her warming rays. Thus, at 3 in the afternoon it feels as if it should be about 7pm and I will say my body has been craving more “autumnal” foods (imagine soups, pasta, warmer dishes that are a bit heavier and richer).

Yesterday was the glorious Sturgeon Moon, Grain Moon in Pisces and this is a fabulous full moon as it’s literally giving us a bit of respite and a reset button. Through a good chunk of the summer we have been dealing with intense energies that have really challenged and tested our ability to let go of things that no longer serve us (which is always a good thing, however, not necessarily a comfie thing to do). This full moon brings a close to that intense energy chapter and with the moon being in Pisces it is a compassionate, emotional, gentle moon that encourages you to be grateful for joy, satisfaction and the beauty that surrounds you.

Don’t get me wrong, it is also inviting you to release the last vestiges of anything that is holding you back so that you can be open and ready for the new energies that are coming in as we move into Autumn. I invite you to take a little time today to reflect on what you have been letting go of whether emotional, physical, mental or spiritual and put into the lovely vacuum that has been created by your release huge gratitude! What and whom are you grateful for and why? What has shown up for you as you’ve been willing to release with no attachment to the outcome?

For me personally half of July and all of August has been about release, letting go and having deep soul searing trust in the path unfolding. Why? As the intention that I set on Summer Solstice was that I had (not just wanted to), but had to live by the ocean in a joyful way. Well holy hannah the Universe responded within 3 weeks and events and situations started unfolding that I couldn’t have stopped if I wanted to! The first four days of realising that this was happening were terrifying. I went into massive resistance, thought I was losing my mind, cried a lot and fought against it and then surrender and willingness kicked in and wow! So in 4 days I move! I have been purging my home, my work, my beliefs, my relationships – everything for the last 6 weeks and some days have felt exhilarating and others, meh – not so much. I am leaving my home, old friends, my doggo’s behind as well as two of my kids (who are old enough to be okay with that) and venturing out into the unknown and it feels terrifyingly right (if that makes sense).

This process has triggered up an old pattern for me, which is I loathe, absolutely loathe saying goodbye to people I love and care about. Thus, when a lovely friend put together a goodbye party I cancelled it as the idea of having to say goodbye to a large group of friends all at the same time felt far to uncomfie and overwhelming. And although other people may judge that and have commentary about it, I don’t care as to me that is self care. Knowing what I want to do, knowing what energetically I am willing to take on and knowing what would make me want to run and hide (even if others feel it is a fun, fabulous thing) and being able to say nope is good.

Thus, when I hear friends or clients saying “I can’t let go of this, that or the other”, the answer is “Bollocks! If you want to, you can.” So do please use the energy of this full moon for a gentle dusting of release and a big dollop of satisfaction and gratitude.

Phew! With that all being said let’s get to the reading (after all that’s why your here, yes?) When I asked the cards who wanted to come and share this week The Faery Forest Oracle immediately flitted to the front. Now, if you have never encountered these delightful guides let me share – “The wondrous beings of this Faery Forest are here to heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.” When I had a conversation with the crystals (and yes I do talk to them as I would a person, an animal or a plant), Malachite – a stone of transformation, Carnelian – promotes positive life choices and Atlantisite – promotes opening up to spirit, all wiggled and jiggled to come and play (along with some lovely edible flowers).

There is a glorious visualisation to help you work with this energy of release and expansion should you feel so inclined.

If not, just breathe and breathe deep into the corners of your belly and come to your centre. When you feel ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you or tug at the corners of your heart.

Ready?

Shall we go look?

AWEN

“Awen” translates to “divine inspiration” or “flowing breath”. It is a mystical force that offers us a moment where there is a sudden surge in newfound knowledge, inspired thought, the ability to awaken our dormant talents and a sense that before we were given the gift of Awen , we were like sleepwalkers.

Awen is a moment where life is forever changed, and once we drink of Awen, or feel it as a beam of divine light entering us and changing us, we can never return to who we were, and the world is never the same again. So having experienced what has taken place, you cannot pretend life can ever be the same. You have lifted the veil and you have seen the face of the Divine. You have drunk the elixir of the gods, and the faeries have offered you their greatest gift.

Awen does not stay – but the knowledge of what we have experienced in that moment changes us forever. So, now that you have had this life-changing experience and been given this incredible moment of inspiration, you can either pretend to yourself that life is without magick, or you can continue to embrace the magick in the enchantment of every moment. Now if you choose, you can become more fully alive – and while this is no easy path, it is one that is full of deep, joyful moments, true connections, and poetic, blindingly beautiful experiences.

Awen will come, from time to time, and you are so blessed for having had this most sublime and life-changing of all mystical experiences.

THE WYZARD

This wyzard is out and proud about their beliefs, and revels in the public use of knowledge. This is a card that can turn up when one has embraced their spiritual journey – and your joy in embracing your true self is evident. There will also be recognition, sometimes very favourable indeed. You are beginning to do what you once only dreamed of doing, becoming whom you once dreamed of being.

Your aura is charged with healing green light, your eyes shine with love and confidence, and your beauty is that of the inner natural divine self expressed outwardly. You are living your intuitive life outwardly in the world, fearlessly, powerfully, magickally, and thus you are transforming and healing the world, as well as providing a loving example of a wise one – a wyzard – to all who encounter you.

No longer do you fear rejection from friends or family as you embrace your spiritual and personal path. This is not imaginary. There is nothing alien or bizarre about being intuitive and living magickally, reconnecting with your power. Others may not understand what you speak of at this time – do not allow their limited vision to dictate who you become in this world. You will soon be asked for your guidance – offer it, as you are able to help.

THE SOLITARY

Within, within you go. When the Solitary visits, you are about to go within, to withdraw, and retreat from the world for a time. This can be a response to an event from outside – a trauma, sadness or betrayal – and the withdrawing inwards, which appears to be depression, is actually a way of respecting the soul’s shadow, investigating it, understanding it, and mastering it. This card indicates a time when you will go it alone – walk your own path, choosing to carve a way forward that you can be sure remains true to the deep self. There will be a time of learning away from the mainstream, and there may be times when you feel isolated and somewhat worried about how your new path will be perceived.

It can also indicate that in a past life, you have suffered for your gifts and spirituality. You may have experienced a past life as a healer, seer, witch, wyzard, or medicine man, in which a new order decreed your power to be invalid and dark. This fear still pursues you when you connect with the power of your gift – resulting in fears surrounding intuition and your natural talents.

By going within we learn more about our soul. It is not a part of the journey that we necessarily look forward to, but it is a time of great development on the spiritual path and is imperative to growth. Before we can shine our light in the world, we must ignite our inner spark. This going inward is actually the sacred task of tending your own sacred flame and learning from it, before turning to matters of the world again.

So there you have it delicious lovely. A lot to do with magick (which is intrinsically part of who we are, we have just forgotten sometimes), and really celebrating the changes and our gifts. Love it, so good for this glorious full moon. Thank you to all who have sent wonderful messages about the smoke, their readings and all the glorious sharings and carings you gift me. I love, love, love them! Now I head off on my hiatus for the next 3 weeks so I am looking forward to connecting with you all in mid-September, where for those of you who have been asking for more, and how to tune in daily – there will be something scrumptious for you! Take glorious care, remember to hydrate, smile and take moments of self care! Huge hugs and squeezes.

Meteor’s, Fires & Eclipses – Ohhhhh My!

Jenny Heston · 12:00 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Manifesting Monday delicious lovely! How did you get on with the Partial Solar Eclipse we had on Saturday as well as the New Moon? If you didn’t have a chance to find out what it was all about, you can check it out here, and also have access to a fabulous offer on private readings that is available for 7 more days only.

Personally, I found the build up energy to the eclipse rather intense, so much so that for four nights in a row I found myself up for 2 or 3 hours in the middle of the night. The first time it happened I felt rather grumpy and anxious with the whole thing. However, by the fourth night I was thinking it was a bit of a bonus as I would get to see the meteor showers that were ramping up. There is nothing like sitting in the dark with your head tilted back looking at a deep, dark sky lit with sparkling stars, and watching shooting stars go dashing by, to remind you of how infinite our Universe is. Unfortunately over the weekend when the meteor shower was meant to be at its most glorious, a huge wind picked up and blew all the thick smoke in from the multiple forest fires burning around us. So currently even in the daylight right now you can’t see the mountains or the lake as the smoke is too thick, thus, there were no sparkly stars to watch last night.

This morning as I was sitting on my deck watching the sun slowly rising above the mountains as a strange orange light trying to burn through the smoke I thought about how as humans we talk about “energy” and how things feel to us. Then I thought about how over the last 3 days we have had an eclipse, multiple forest fires and dancing meteors. Doesn’t that mean that the Universe and Mother Nature are expressing how their energies are feeling? I think they are. Which really feeds into the theme of change, transformation and creative pragmatism – don’t you think?

I was nattering with a friend on the weekend (whilst I built a door for my completed shed – so excited!) Anyhow, he was talking about change and how he didn’t like it, he just wanted things to stay the way they were in his life and know that every day was rather similar and what the expectations were. I was sooooo gob smacked to hear this that I nearly drove a screw into my hand with my impact driver. I totally understand that change and transformation can be very tricky for most of us, especially when we haven’t instigated it – but to want to sit so rigidly within the confines of a rather narrow comfort zone seems to me to be foolish. Thus, for about an hour we bantered back and forth about change and I likened it to an egg (stay with me on this one). Let’s say I am making you breakfast and I ask you what you would like, you choose toast and eggs (you still with me?) I then hand you a plate of raw eggs, still in their shells, and cold bread. Why? Because to cook you some delicious eggs and make you warm, buttered toast both of those items have to go through a change, a transformation to become something that you would want. Does that make sense? Now if you are totally resistant to any form of change I guess you would end up sucking raw eggs out of the shell and eating cold bead, which to mean doesn’t sound like a fun thing to do (and having tried raw egg whites as a nutritious and delicious drink I can affirm that I think they are rather disgusting to be honest!)

Thus with this energy of change and things shifting floating around, when I went to do the reading today I wasn’t surprised to see that the Oracle of the Shapeshifters were eager to play. If you have never encountered these lovely guides before, these are the guides for change and transformation. “This deck is filled with mystic familiars for times of transformation and change. Fear corrupts and these guides are for anyone experiencing a transformation and who may be fearful of that change. Change is one way of staying very much alive – it’s necessary and healthy. True deep change must take place for you to fulfill your soul contract. If you are blocked in terms of change and fear it, you will perhaps have a tougher time changing. You may turn from possibility to what you have convinced yourself is probable: You diminish your possible self, reduce who you are, and dilute your spirit. For some, this is more comfortable than facing the fear of evolving actively. But even when we have diminished ourselves, sought to remain invisible and hidden away, and said yes to everyone else, life will find us – and transform us.” (I love that line).

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come be active with you this week are:- Mookaite – the stone of here and now, very protective and is a stone of the lower chakras, Yellow Jasper – a great grounding stone, actives the Solar Plexus and is a wonderful healing stone for anxiety and depression and last but not least Sodalite – helps you get back in touch with your true self, promotes peace and tranquility. Oh yes, with the big wind on the weekend it blew down so many of my huge sunflowers, so a few of the little ones wanted to come and participate.

I’ve created a lovely visualisation for you, if you feel inclined, with all this heat, fire and smoke around I thought it would be nice to cool off a tad and go play by the water. Don’t fret, you don’t need to wear a bikini! If that is not what you’re into at the moment then just give yourself a little space to BE, to breathe, to relax into your body, your essence and your inner wise knowing. Breathe into all the spaces and offer an invitation of welcome to those areas, inviting them to come help you pick the right guidance. Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

A TIME TO SAY GOOD-BYE

A time to say goodbye will help you to let go, even though it hurts a lot. This is now out of your hands; you have to say goodbye at this time. Be active in this ending when this card comes to you. Be brave; think about how you can best take care of yourself at this time, and show the other person how much you care. Don’t ignore or shun them. Rather, let this person know what they have meant to you, wish them well on the next stage of their life journey, and let….them…go! There may be great sadness id doing so, but you will grow so much because you have chosen the better way to deal with this sad situation. This other person has learned how to detach and stay detached. He asks that you do not ask for him to return, to stay, or to cling. Be strong because you need to be dignified, and believe that something better is coming. Because that is the truth. Something better is coming. So open your arms, and let him be free, as he has learned to be.

You may be reluctant to see an ending – you may wish to extend the time you have with someone, or you may even feel like you are being cheated out of something you deserve. But the truth is that things must die in order to be reborn in another form at a later time. This is the chosen time to go, and from the ashes, something new will arise, and it will be even better than you can imagine. Rebirth cannot take place without a death – and it is now time to end something, to let something both externally and internally die. It may be a long-held belief, a place that seemed to hold security, a friendship that has grown unhealthy, someone you’ve been going out with who no longer wishes to see you, or a beloved family member who may not be in this world much longer. Whatever it is, let it – let them – go! Something else will return to you. And you cannot be reborn unless you first know how to die. This is your chance to learn something very profound, deep, and important. Do not miss it by resisting what must take place.

ALICE IN A SEA OF TEARS

Alice is drowning, distraught, overwhelmed, in her own sea of tears. But help is on its way! She will find her way to shore. The rat, the keeper of her goods, will be with her. And the crab, who is of moonlight and is tender on the inside, will show her which way to head and help her strap on armour for the next stage of her journey, to protect her own soft heart. The rat will help her busy herself with creating her own hoard, and being prepared and productive instead of being overwhelmed by her feelings. Alice, in time, will know the truth. She will blame this sea of tears on no other. All will be well, and from this sea she will walk, as soon as she realises the source of her confusion is her own unbalanced emotions. The endless weeping will cease, her feet will find purchase, and land’s grounded safety will be hers once again.

You have been through a very emotional time and have finally released your need to hold on. You have let go – or been let go of – and the emotional aftermath has been overwhelming. You are about to see that your sadness can continue to create the rough waters that have thrown you about and that you will finally make it to shore. Now the challenge is to move on from this, with wisdom in place, without repeating what has led to this manifestation. You can do it, and by being more like the rat, with his neat, compartmental nature, and the crab, with her hard outer shell for protection, you will come through this tough time. You are wiser now, less emotionally ready to be hurt, and far more capable of remaining yourself, even walking as you do in a harsh world.

If you feel very alone, help is coming and will soon be with you. Although you may be feeling you have made a great mistake, given all this upheaval, in time you will know that you have done exactly the right thing. Dry your tears. Help is here. Well done on making such an important change!

THE GOLDEN PHOENIX

You are transforming – both internally and externally – and this change is blessed, divine, and guided by your Golden Phoenix guardian. Talk to your Golden Phoenix at sunrise – and know that as you do so, your Golden Phoenix is recharging your chakras and your aura, and thus your experiences, thoughts, and reality. You are loved by the Golden Phoenix, and as you honour her with your transformation, she honours you with this marvelous gift of regeneration. Life from death. The sun from the ashes. You rise again, reborn. The Golden Phoenix is perhaps the greatest creature of rebirth and reincarnation. This sacred helper, guardian, and loving companion guides you to die before you die, to be born again within this life, many times. Allow the things that no longer serve you to fall like autumn leaves. Allow yourself to be reborn, like the budding leaves of spring. You are potentially in one of the most invigorating, challenging, and inspiring rebirth cycles ever.

You retreated, rested, and you recovered. And now you will reignite! You thought something – or someone – was done. Dead. In the past. But his once lifeless thing of ashes is about to flame back into full existence! You are about to witness a resurrection, and you and the reborn will have the chance to create something of warmth and beauty together – something pure, innocent, and wise that will benefit many. Life always finds a way – and you will have a Golden Phoenix guiding you to rekindle a dream you gave up on too soon.

What I find fascinating is that the first time this gorgeous deck was used for a “public” reading was on the first eclipse and the guide “A time to say good-bye”, came out then and here she is again on the third eclipse. Love it! Lots of input in the cards about change, transformation, releasing and trusting. Yum!!!! Thank you to all who quickly signed up for the Eclipse Reading Offer, I am so excited to be working with you! So for those that missed it go check it out as that offer closes in 7 days and I know quite a few of you have mentioned you would like to take advantage of it.

Also, I will be taking a little break from public readings, from August 21st to September 17th. (I will still be doing private readings and coaching). There are a few reasons for this. Firstly, I am putting together something that would serve and offer you more great information and ways to move through the year on a day to day basis, and that will launch on the Equinox in September (you’re going to love it and I’m exceptionally excited!). Secondly, the intention that I set on Summer Solstice is all coming to fruition so there are lots of changes and things that need to be attended to so that it all flows with grace and ease. But I shall share that with you as it unfolds. Have a fabulous week, remember to hydrate, eat healthy fats (both are good for keeping your mind balanced) and play! Huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week.

Full Lunar Eclipse on a Blood Moon! Change & Transformation is in the Air.

Jenny Heston · 12:00 pm ·

Happy delicious and delightful Monday gorgeous one! How has your week been?

I don’t know about you but it has been hawt, hawt, hawt here and so I have been emulating a reverse sun dial and moving from patch of shade to patch of shade lol. This has proved challenging at times as a while ago I decided that I really needed a large workshop/shed and so Wednesday found me in the baking hot sun framing up the walls! (What’s that saying about mad dogs and English men going out in the noon day sun?) Needless to say I felt rather crispy after 9 hours of building in the heat, but very satisfied that the framed walls were up. Then on Sunday I spent another 7 hours starting to put up the sheathing and figuring out the roof pitch and rafter cut lines. So slowly but surely this space will get completed over the next 10 days and then I can start filling it with all the lovely things that need to be kept safe and dry.

Remember the other week we talked about “eclipse season” and how eclipses bring up the hidden and there is an energy of transformation and change? So the partial solar eclipse in Cancer that happened on July 12th really set in motion quite a few cosmic revelations about your life and there was most certainly a nudging towards something different. With that being said, we are coming up to the second eclipse already (time just seems to fly). This is a full lunar eclipse of the Blood Moon in Aquarius, it’s also the longest lunar eclipse of the 21st Century as it lasts 103 minutes. I could write soooooo much about this eclipse, but then the reading would be like a small novella, so if you are part of the community and receive emails from me I will send something out near the end of the week to help you work through this energy. What you do need to pay attention to is the Blood Moon shoves us towards change and with this full moon and eclipse there is a real resetting of emotions, a clearing away of the emotional baggage of the previous 6 months. So if you are feeling the increased emotional energy, a sensation of something big is going to happen, or just a tad fragmented, remember to breathe, take a moment and just let the feelings flow through you. Okay? A quick and easy tool to use at this time is keeping a piece of Indigo Gabbro (aka Mystic Merlinite) with you, either in your pocket, stuff it into your bra – whatever works for you.

When I was asking the cards who wanted to come and offer support and guidance this week it was no surprise to me that a gorgeous deck I acquired a few weeks ago stood up front and centre. This glorious deck is “The Oracle of the Shapeshifters”. Let me share with you a little of how this deck works. “This deck is filled with mystic familiars for times of transformation and change. Fear corrupts and these guides are for anyone experiencing a transformation and who may be fearful of that change. Change is one way of staying very much alive – it’s necessary and healthy. True deep change must take place for you to fulfill your soul contract. If you are blocked in terms of change and fear it, you will perhaps have a tougher time changing. You may turn from possibility to what you have convinced yourself is probable: You diminish your possible self, reduce who you are, and dilute your spirit. For some, this is more comfortable than facing the fear of evolving actively. But even when we have diminished ourselves, sought to remain invisible and hidden away, and said yes to everyone else, life will find us – and transform us.”

Thus, it is no surprise with what is happening that these delightful guides have come out to support and guide. The crystals that came to join in with this reading are:- Bloodstone, Lepidolite with Mica and Sodalite, the nasturtium flowers, mint and lemon balm were adamant they got to participate as well, and then they gladly hopped into a salad! Nom, nom, nom.

I have created a lovely visualisation, if you so desire, to help you with this energy of transformation and change. We go on a little backpack trip, don’t worry you don’t need sturdy footwear. If that doesn’t resonate for you then just take a few moments to really breathe into all the corners of your body and allow the tension to puddle around your feet and seep away. When you feel ready, pick the card of cards that resonate for you and let’s go see shall we?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a little look.

YOU ARE UNLIKE ANYONE ELSE

As caterpillars undergo metamorphosis, they turn to a sort of mush inside their cocoons. So too in your life everything seems to have lost direction and feels quite meaningless, but you will regroup, reform, and transform. A new world speaks of the necessary process you must undergo in order to create an important change. Developing new true friendships, repairing a damaged relationship, working on your skills in an area that does not come easy to you, making difficult choices about your integrity – all are addressed by the beings in this card, as they too have undergone the challenge of change. You will notice that on the card there are beings who are hybrid – the butterfly frogs – who are at once not quite one thing or another. This is how your changes can seem to others sometimes.

“Which are you?” they may ask. “This or that?” Many in life will want you to fit nicely into a category so they can easily label you and not undergo the difficult task of truly knowing who you are. You do not have to choose between things. Humans are often contradictory. Simply be true to you. Be a frog with wings! Be all of who are and experiment. Let others be puzzled. You have the courage to defy boxes, labels, and other easy ways of avoiding truly knowing people and the world.

There is no one like you. You have gone through a very difficult time, but you have passed the test and been reborn. You have done well to keep going, and now you can begin to see how worthwhile all the changes and sacrifices were. A new time begins now. You have successfully reinvented yourself by doing what is not always easy. There will be more enjoyment and fulfillment and less to worry about. You worried, didn’t you, about whether this time of goodness and hope would come? Well have no doubt. It is here!

WOLF MOON

A beautiful girl is seated beneath a perfect full moon, unable to sleep. She wraps her arms about the wolf, her companion. If you look closely, you’ll see she has a tattoo of a wolf’s footprint. She is one of the clan; she is different in form, though she is one of their own. The wolf is being held by the small girl – they are not the same, but they are kin, and one is changing, which requires courage and commitment, and flourishes best when protected. The girl may be about to turn, change form, or she may be holding one who is about to change. You are always in this process of transformation, and when you have a guardian, you will be supported through your shifts into many selves.

The lunar aspect of this card is protective; the moon’s fullness suggests a high tide of power, and this is traditionally the time of great change and metamorphosis. This is a time when the tender can cradle the fierce – and in which your true, wild self and instinctual knowledge can be heard and acted upon.

A clan brother or sister is watching over you while you change, so rest easy knowing how fiercely loved and loyally protected you are. While you change, you will be held and watched over by a guardian who will not let you down. You are in the moment of transformation. Your fears – that others will not understand who you really are when you show yourself and that you will be left vulnerable – are unfounded. Your greatest fear is that you may hurt others while you are changing so deeply. The coming full moon is significant for you: You are changing, and your true family will support you through this shift. This is a time for courage. When you approach this change with a brave heart, all will be well.

A TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

Holy Hannah! As a friend of mine says “You can’t make this shit up!” The cards are positively perfect for this upcoming Lunar Eclipse, are you paying attention? So delicious one, remember to breathe, laugh a lot and be kind to yourself and others. Allow the fears, the thoughts and any confusion to just flow through you like a stream, don’t try and dam it up and tuck it away – that won’t serve you. Have a fabulous week and if you are part of this lovely community I will be sending you something later this week about the Lunar Eclipse. Huge hugs and squeezes! See you next week!

Full Flower Moon, Shed Building and Hot, Hot, Heat!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, happy magickal, manifesting, marvelous, last Monday in May! I don’t know about you but I sure feel that this month has just flown by! Phew. How have you been? It feels like yonks since we last connected, and yet it has only been two weeks. It was sooooo nice to celebrate the long weekend and just relax, play, hike and plan. On the Friday of the long weekend I was sitting out in the garden and looking around and appreciating how with the hot weather we have been having all the plants are pushing out of the ground and reaching for the sun. In fact one whole bed has self planted itself with sunflowers! I must have at least 60 in there, so we will have to do some gentle transplanting so they all have room and space to grow and flourish.

Anyhow, there I was perking and looking when all of a sudden I realised I needed a workshop, or a shed or a something. A structure that could be home to all my tools with a lovely rack off the side to hold the paddle boards and kayaks. So I grabbed my tape measure and wandered around the yard looking for “the right location”, when I found it I measured it up, grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil and started sketching out what I wanted. How big, what roof design etc etc. (This is where my capacity to over think can be a royal pain in the arse!) A few hours later I had called the lumber yards, priced out all the wood etc and poured concrete pads (not bad for a Friday night lol). Then for the next 2 days I dug, and dug, and dug and levelled, and dug and dug (have to say I wasn’t digging the digging), and doing that in a balmy 98F was a bit much. However, by the end of the weekend the area was level and ready to welcome a new structure. I on the other hand was sun crispy and feeling a tad peely wally as I had had too much sun! So this last weekend, I grabbed the wood and have built the foundation and got the floor on – whoot! Whoot! Huge happy dance (in fact I think I did one on the floor of the workshop). So the next part is my favourite, framing the walls in and getting them up and clad. This lovely workshop is going to look fabulous by the time she is done and I’m building little planters to hang on the outside and I might even paint some lovely flowers up one wall – but that will have to wait a while. However, it feels good to be building and creating and taking something from an idea into manifestation, right?

On Tuesday we welcome in the glorious Full Flower Moon. This is a glorious time to really luxuriate in seeing the plans you made months ago coming into fruition. It’s also a fabulous time to tend your most cherished and promising endeavours as well as to create more future plans that are really aligned with who you are and your values. Make a list of all the things you would like to do, be, create etc for this upcoming summer season and then put that list outside with your crystals and let it get deliciously charged up with this fiery full moon light. I personally plan on putting all my crystals outside, including the ones that I wear and letting them have a gorgeous moon bath.

The deck that was very wiggly and jiggly to come work with us this week is the wonderful Divine Circus Oracle, I so enjoy this deck and the insights it brings me. The crystals that were adamant it was their turn to play are Mookaite, Jasper and Calcite, and what better place to do the reading than outside on the floor of the new workshop with a dusting of Rowan tree petals.

So let’s take a moment to just settle into ourselves. Take a glorious deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and let your face, shoulders, scalp gently relax. As your breathing starts to slow trust yourself and allow your inner deep wise one to float up to the surface and help you pick the card or cards for you this week. If you would like a bit more support with settling in, there is a fun guided visualisation that honours the flowers of this Full Flower Moon.

Ready?

Shall we go see?

Princess Victorious

You are being asked to be a big picture person for the moment. Sometimes immediate gratification has to give way for a grander scheme unfolding, which will ultimately lead you to far greater and more meaningful success. What seems to be a delay, obstacle, loss or even failure now is a twist in the plot of your life, necessary for your gracious destiny to unfold according to a higher plan.

It can be hard to keep faith when you’ve been defeated just one too many times. It is easy to make fear and doubt mean something they don’t; it’s usually something like being doomed to fail and so we might as well give up. However, fear and doubt are just symptoms of fatigue. They are signs that we are feeling battle weary when it comes to life. To overcome weariness and create happiness, you are being asked to temporarily surrender your need to win – just for now. Instead, you are guided to step back, regroup, replenish, be kind to yourself and know this: sometimes you have to be willing to lose the battle to win the war. That means being willing to go through things in the short term that might seem like failure without losing confidence, courage and trust that everything is going to go your way in the long term.

Know that you are strong and determined enough to bounce back and overcome difficult circumstances. You will be given the power to succeed at the right time and in the best way for all concerned. So give in to how your journey is unfolding – even if it seems like you are losing when you’d rather be winning – but don’t give up hope. Trust that the universe is strategic. It is helping you to succeed. If you need a sign to know that things are going to work out for the best, even if it seems like they are falling apart along the way, then this is it!

Joker is Wild

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense. It is laughing with you, not t 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.

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.

Divine Disguise

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

Blessings are the mysterious workings of the universe, there to help us along our unique life path to live our truths and fulfil our potential. The universe has the knack of knowing just what it is we need, even when sometimes we might think we need something altogether different. This is how it can be that something we resist and reject in our lives can become the very thing we’re most grateful for later on. The real beauty of a situation isn’t obvious to you yet. It could be a delay or change in plans that turns out to be in your favour, even if at the time you aren’t sure it signals failure! It could be the wrong person saying no so the right person can say yes. It could be being blocked from turning back to your past, so you must continue forward into the magic of your future.

But trust and have peace of mind and a realisation that the universe does really know what it’s doing. It’s in your corner, on your side, cheering you on and helping you avoid unnecessary pitfalls, even if you don’t know they exist.

So delicious lovely, have a wonderful week. Remember to wear sunscreen, drink water and celebrate all the wonderful little things that happen in the day. Like the crows that come strutting through the yard when I put the sprinkler on, they have a glorious shower, fluff their feathers, give a deep croaking caw and fly off to preen themselves. So looking forward to seeing you next week. Smile, Breathe and Trust. Huge hugs.

Mother’s Day, New Moon, Frogs and Hot Weather!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy glorious, magnificent, magickal Monday delicious lovely! Did you have a stupendous week? Did you take a little time to reflect on what re-aligning your values looks like? I spent Friday off the grid so to speak, no cell coverage and fully immersed in exploring the glorious outdoors, grizzly bear watching, hiking, laying in the middle of an Alpine meadow where the only thing that could be heard was the whisper of the breeze, birds and frog song from the nearby lake. The weather was sunny and hot which helped make it even more divine than I thought possible. Taking this time allowed me to really create the space and time to just breath in more of what I want in my life and to explore what that would mean and really aligning my values pertaining to life and work to this new creation. By the time I got home even though I had only been gone for 14 hours, it felt like I had been on a 3 day hiatus. Highly recommend it!

Mother’s Day was fabulous as a few female mumma friends and I went for a glorious explore through snow, forest, overflowing creeks and hot meadows where we encountered at least 400 tiny little frogs hopping about! Lol, it was very tricky walking for a bit as we most certainly didn’t want to step on them. My kids have a great tradition of getting me tons and tons of plants for my planters, unusual plants for the garden and very Dr. Seuss like plants that make me giggle. So when I got back from my hike they gifted me all these glorious plants, bags of dirt and a gargoyle and then for the rest of the day they took care of any household chores and made dinner and left me to potter and pootle. I love it! Best gift ever and dinner was amazing – homemade sushi which I could happily eat fairly much daily. Ahhh, I felt very blessed and treasured.

We have a New Moon in Taurus on Tuesday and this one comes will a very strong and robust energy that we would normally associate with an eclipse and is a great marker for change. “This new moon is both difficult and exalted with potential for great inspiration that comes with the freedom you may experience following challenging choices you have made or are in the process of making.

While stepping forward into new territory through your choices and realigning values, it is also important to bring in the quality of beauty and inspiration into the equation. Nurture yourselves in some way and have some fun despite the chaos that you may feel around you. It cannot be focused hard work all of the time. You will reap many more benefits if you take some time to smell the roses along the way and do something for yourself that represents self-care with a bit of luxury like going to a fine restaurant for a meal or treating yourself to a massage. And if you are in the process of purging the old, bring in something new that is an upgrade in the area of beauty and inspiration.”

So take some time on Tuesday to really examine the New Moon wishes you want to make and set the intention of beauty and inspiration as you make them.

Okey, dokey – now let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

Interesting to see that the cards that were most adamant about showing up for this reading are The Lightworker Oracle. At first I thought no, it should be the Earth Warriors, but Spirit was pretty darn clear that it was going to be the Lightworkers. When I asked the crystals who wanted to come participate they guided me to use something different. So this week we have a shell, a wooden heart and a bear tooth (no, it’s not gross). All very powerful Earth talismans which really ties in with the New Moon being in Taurus.

I have created a fun little, how shall we say it “cleansing” visualisation for you if you feel so inclined, to help you get centred, refreshed and clear. Otherwise, I invite you to put your feet flat on the floor, put your hands on your belly and slowly breathe into all the corners of your belly and feel your hands rise with the inhale and lower with the exhale. Breath this was for as long as you like and when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

DIVINE GRACE – THE LAW OF EFFICIENCY

It is time your life became easier. It is time for you to walk the way of divine grace with trust, simplicity and acceptance. You do not have to try to make things happen. You can gracefully act without attachment and trust that all will be as it is meant to be. Surrender your struggles, now, as you allow life to serve you with love and kindness. This is the most efficient use of your energy and will lead to the best results.

The Law of Efficiency encourages us to work smarter, rather than always working harder. It is like learning to allow a wave to carry you to shore, rather than swimming the entire way with your own efforts alone – or even against the current, which would make the journey even harder. It is like planting a seed at the right time so nature will help it bloom in the spring, rather than planting it during the dead of winter, when it takes a lot of effort to keep it alive – and even then it may not survive.

To hitch your wagon to the Universe in this way, you need to learn to listen. This means tuning in to what feels right or wrong at any given time. Sometimes, you will want to push forward, yet your intuitive knowing will guide you to rest. Sometimes, you will want to hide from a challenge – and yet know in your bones it is time to step up and shine with boldness, despite the fear you may feel.

The Law of Efficiency is also sometimes known as the path of least resistance. We must find strength that comes from letting go and trusting that the Universe knows what it is doing! Trust now. Trust that all will come in time.

MASTER HEALING

As you meditate, remain true to what inspires your heart and commit to your spiritual path, you become an increasingly powerful healer. You are here to live your own life, to be true to what genuinely moves you. The unconditionally loving guide and Ascended Master Serapis Bey comes to you now with a blessing of master healing to further your success on your path.

The Master Serapis Bey is a beloved guide for those who feel a strong soul connection to ancient Egypt, for healers who are developing their own modalities, and those who love to work with high frequency concepts. He also assists with the translation of spiritual inspiration into practical worldly plans. He comes to confirm that the ascended masters are aware of you. You are an integral part of a powerful spiritual team that has taken physical incarnation to help awaken consciousness into love.

Tune into your heart. What do you love enough to overcome any obstacle to attain it? What motivates and inspires you? Not what seems possible or practical, but what is authentic? We are most powerful when we serve authentically from the heart.

When we are willing to be who we are, the Universe can more easily guide us to fulfil our destinies. Serapis Bey will help you see yourself truthfully. You may gain feedback from others that helps you understand the value of what you share. Or you may simply find it easier to view yourself objectively, with a compassionate, appreciative and discerning inner eye. As you learn and accept who you are, you become a more powerful vibration for masters to put to use in the plan of love. If you ask for something, are are willing to go through the process required to have that come to life, it will happen for you. The Universe is that generous, unconditionally supportive and loving of you. It will provide you will all that you need to manifest your dreams, desires and destiny.

KARMIC CLEARING

You are fast outgrowing level of consciousness to which are attached particular wounds, issues and struggles. As you outgrow that consciousness, these issues will release their grip on you. You are receiving divine notice that karmic clearing is taking place, through a combination of your own efforts and spiritual grace from the heart of the Divine. It is time for an old wound to be released, once and for all.

Karma is not punishment. Karma is essentially our soul’s lesson plan for this lifetime, carried over from past lifetimes. It is the way we grow and develop as a soul, sometimes through challenges and sometimes through blessings.

Our “positive” karma is seen in the skills and talents we have mastered over many lifetimes. Also, when opportunities flow easily and healing happens swiftly, there is a sense of positive karma, an easy grace that effortlessly takes place in your life. This is what happens when we are clear enough of our own past pain to have little resistance between us and the natural flow of life. More challenging karma is revealed in the lessons we are still learning. These usually appear in the guise of painful circumstances or reactions that repeat themselves in our lives. The stronger the soul, the more challenging the lesson it is willing to master this lifetime. When you are working through big challenges, it is often a sign that you are on an advanced spiritual path.

We clear karma by learning to trust and relax, by choosing not to punish ourselves with shame, guilt, fear or unworthiness, by continuing to balance our efforts with a surrender into divine grace. We take responsibility for our own healing – doing all that we can – and trusting that the Universe will lovingly and effectively handle everything else so that we can progress and succeed.

So glorious lovely, wishing you a wonderful week and delicious New Moon wishes! Remember to invite in beauty, ease and effortlessness and that sense of childlike play which rejuvenates and refreshes! There will not be a reading next week as it is a long weekend here and I plan to most certainly potter, play, plant and ponder (how was that for alliteration?) See you in two weeks (and remember to laugh, where sun screen, look for faeries and eat yummy food).
