Welcome to 2025, and Today’s Wolf Moon!

Dearest Gentle Reader,

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

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

Welcome to 2025.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s Go See Shall We?

JOKER IS WILD

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

RED COUNTESS

Deep within, you know what is true and what to do (or not do). Yet there is so much noise and distraction in the world, and even at times in our own minds, that listening for our inner wisdom can seem like trying to hear gentle birdsong in the midst of a rock concert.

Even so, you are hearing an inner truth, and deep down, you know it. Can you trust that it is safe to not only hear your inner voice but act on it too?

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

Give your truths value. Hold your feelings and insights in high enough esteem to pay attention to them, to give yourself time to process what you think, feel and sense.

Know that they’re worth acting on, even if that action just means to trust more and stop worrying.

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

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

SILVER SIREN

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Practice of Presence and leaning into the Pause. Solstice is Coming!

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Meteoric, Meretricious, Moodling, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you gorgeous one? I hope you are not getting your tinsel in a tangle or allowing your lights to get zapped as the holiday season approaches.

This week we are going to explore leaning into the Pause, that space that allows us to take a breath, reflect, just BE and BE open to inviting in something new, (which is all the various energies at this time!) But before we dive into that…….

First off, apologies as quite a few of you said you never received the invitation to the Omen Day’s Journey that went out last week. Most peculiar as some of you did receive it and others didn’t.

However, don’t fret pet, there is still time to join this year’s amazing Omen Day’s journey, as we have a gathering on Solstice to tap into that delicious energy and open the container, and then we start on December 26th.

So if you have been looking for a more meaningful way to close the year, and get insights into 2025, this is for you!

Yesterday we had the final Full Moon of 2024 in Gemini which was a huge (note that word) RELEASE Moon. And the interesting thing with this moon is we experienced a lunar rarity.

What do I mean? In other words we experienced a Major Lunar Standstill which only happens every 18.6 years.

This means that the moon rises and sets at its northernmost and southernmost positions on the horizon which creates this standstill energy as it is visible far longer than any of the other moons.

A standstill, a pause, a suspension if you will……..

Then let’s look at the Christian season of Advent, which invites us to see that waiting and expectation have power.

This is counter to our instant gratification culture.

When we not only wait, but prepare ourselves for what may be, we can be more open and ready to receive whatever arrives. A pause, a stillness, a presence.

Yet us glorious humans rush from one thing to the next, not allowing that space to be empty.

Sometimes we don’t even acknowledge all our growth and progress, because we have to keep filling the space. And in the holiday season it ramps up even more.

Which reminds me of a glorious quote from Howard Thurman that says:

In the stillness of quiet, if we listen, we can hear the whisper of the heart giving strength to weakness, courage to fear, hope to despair………..

So can you practise being Present, Leaning into the Pause and just saying Woosah?

Use the glorious Solstice energy to help you with this!

Oh and I meant to say to all those who have emailed and asked if there are still spots available for the Opening the Doors on 2025 reading – yes, there are a few left!

Now enough chuntering from me, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards to ask who would like to be present this week it made my heart smile to see who showed up. The amazing Faery Blessing guides were most adamant. As after all, who doesn’t need a Blessing?

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to.

Faeries are present in every droplet of water, every blade of grass – they are everywhere there is a trace of nature – thus every field, flower, and forest is theirs. They inhabit the wild rainforests and the old castles; they dance within standing stones and burial mounds; they are on the top of mountains and within the grove deep in the valley; and they appear in the cracks in the pavement and beneath the cities in the old, tangled tree roots. Faeries are part of this world, and they were here before we were born into this world, and they know us better than we know ourselves.

For humans, many of us have lost our sense of play, our sense of relationship with nature, our courage to be ourselves – as well as our hope, creativity, and personal power. We have looked outside of ourselves and nature and the sacred ones for answers, and in doing so, we have become quite lost. The blessings of the faeries can bring us back into relationship with ourselves, back into relationship with the elements and the elementals, so that we can become more at home within the world, while creating a personal world which supports our dreams, our wishes, and our purpose.

Yes! Positively perfect!

So gorgeous one take a breath. Just a normal breath and then as you carry on breathing allow it to slow down. Breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth. Allow in your mind’s eye a gorgeous rainbow swirl to form, this pattern is made of release, stillness and peace.

It gently removes the heaviness and invites you into the ease and the quiet and it melds with the abundance and appreciation of who you are. As you breathe just let it swirl, you don’t have to control it.

If you need to go a bit further, I have a wee visualisation for you.

Then with this energy pick the card or cards that call to you. What Blessing is for you this week?

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

A BLESSING FROM QUEEN MAB

The Faery Gift of Being the Ruler of Your Own World

With this faery gift from the formidable and enchanting faery queen, Queen Mab, comes the blessing of being the owner of your own life. This is a powerful blessing indeed, for with this blessing comes the most precious gift of all, that of knowing that your life is yours to live.

With this blessing, let you now take up the reins of your life, let you decide what it is you do, and who it is you are, and who you are now becoming. It is your life, this wild and sweet thing, to be lived only once, and it is rare and priceless. You shall no longer be owned, nor forced, nor pushed, nor pulled, for with her gift comes the solidity of determining your own fate – for you are a being who has often been pressured to give away the crown that declares that you are the sovereign. With this blessing, it is returned to you.

Let yourself be a queen, a king, and know your world is as great as any other person’s. Your life is a jewel, and no more shall you spend it pleasing others. When this blessing comes to you, all who you know you will love and support you, and you will now take back the power that you gave away. You will climb the stairs to your throne and look upon your world and know that you will be a strong leader of your own soul. And you will inspire others to do the same.

With this gift from Queen Mab will come the sure knowledge of what is wise for you to do, and what would be foolish, and to know the difference between pleasing others and doing what is in the very best interest of the path of your soul.

You faery friend, are a magnificent being, and your life, your world, and your very being are royal. Be most loyal to your ownself, and know now the gift of great and deep self-respect, and of choosing what is right for you.

Blessings of the great and good Queen Mab to you, friend.

A BLESSING OF THE WILD WITHIN

The Faery Gift of the Untamed Heart

Within you is a wild place, a place that is pure and untouched by conditioning and should and should-nots……and it is to this place the faery blessing of the wild within comes and rests and takes root within you this day.

This blessing is a calling back to your wild self, to the self that has been shaped and pummelled by the forces of family and culture and manner and jobs and timetables and by all of the things in the human world that can cage us..

And so the fae offer you this shining blessing, which returns you for a moment to your own wild within, so you can remember what it felt like to be natural, to be unthinking and uncensored, to be innocent and dancing, to move when called to, to have that primal, instinctual self take hold and fly with you.

When this blessing comes, let that wild within flow all the way through you, and find places and spaces in your life to allow the wild within to have its moment – dance without fear of judgement; speak, words falling like waterfalls from your lips; sing and use the voice the great gift of nature has offered you; and never feel awkward or strange or like you do not fit in…..

Instead knowing you are a deep part of all that is around you, and that somehow, by your very presence, you ignite a little of that wild within inside every soul you meet.

May the blessings of that wild within offer you a return to the natural, most innate parts of you, and let them arise and dance and sing and be loving towards all.

Let the untamed heart of you warm all that is about you, and bring you back to that sense of deep belonging to the earth, and to the stars.

Blessings of the faery gift of the wild within to you, friend.

A BLESSING OF A SAFE PLACE IN THE WORLD

The Faery gift of a Sanctuary, a space in which to feel completely supported and loved.

The Faeries know what it is like to find the safe places in the world – for theirs are under siege, and have been for such a long time. The faeries know how to find the little home in the forest or the garden that is growing wild, the roots of old trees and the hollows beneath the sacred hills.

In these places, they have grown stronger and stayed safe, and they now transfer to you a part of this gift. You will now find places and spaces within the world where you will feel free to be completely yourself, where you, too, can grow strong and bright again, and need have no fear.

Let there be a shelter and a sanctuary for you and your soul, where you can learn what it is you are meant to do next, and where there is no harsh word spoken, only guidance that can help ease us all into the next stage of our lives.

Let the safe spaces become our homes and our workplaces, our friendships and our schools.

Let the world become a safer space, and let the natural world shelter you with her turnings and showings of the changes about you.

Make not a fortress of this space you find, but let it begin to grow in your heart, so that wherever you go, others feel safe with you, and the world changes, in small but bright and beautiful ways, all as a result of this blessing of the faeries.

Blessings of a sanctuary, a safe space to you, friend.

Woosah gorgeous one, Blessings are amazing! Sending you huge blessings and hugs as we enter this holiday season and please – if it resonates for you, come join the Omen Days Journey, if it doesn’t and you just want to see what 2025 is going to give you there are a few spots left for Opening The Doors for 2025.

See you for the last reading of 2024 next week.

Let’s All Take a Breath, and Bring in the 11:11 Portal Energy of this day.

Jenny Heston · 5:55 pm ·

Happy Mystified, Magickal, Manifesting, Memorial Monday!

This will be a shorter than normal post as I want to attend a Remembrance Day service, so let’s crack on shall we?

Well to say it’s been a heck of a week globally would be an understatement, wouldn’t it?

I have been hearing from many of you the shock that you have been feeling, anger, disbelief and the grief, as that’s what it is.

I’ve also been seeing a lot of attacking posts, divisive posts and blame posts – understandable in a way, but it isn’t going to help us as a collective to move forward and through this challenging time.

Today is Remembrance Day, also known as Armistice Day. It marks the day World War One ended at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918! 106 years ago!!!

And I do wear a Poppy, I always wear a Poppy at this time. Why?

The Poppy to me is a symbol of Remembering those who bravely went to fight for our freedoms and well being.

It is also a symbol of Hope, hope for our troops that are still deployed all over the world and Hope for a time of Peace.

Personally, I think it is important to focus on those types of events, the ones that inspire Hope and Peace, and don’t get me wrong, there are all sorts of horrendous wars being waged all over the world. But drop back into that space of Armistice, Hope and Peace – it is sooooo possible on every level in this world (at least that is my belief).

Thus on Remembrance day we have the potent energy of 11:11. Great Jen, what does that mean for me (you may be asking)?

This day holds the number code of 1111, which is a power number in astrology and also an angel number.

If there is something you want to manifest or a wish you want to make, this is the day to set your intentions!

1111 heightens our ability to create and to leave an imprint on the tapestry that is all of life. It also indicates that we are in complete harmony and alignment with all of nature.

From this state of alignment, it becomes easier for us to feel grounded and connected to our life here on Earth, but also to the magic and wisdom of higher realms.

Close your eyes and remember the last time that you set an intention. Did you feel doubtful that your wish would come true, or did you have faith that the universe was listening, ready to help you bring your vision to life?

11/11 is one of the most powerful days of the year for manifestation – a day when we’re reminded that our guides are always with us, supporting us on the path to our deepest dreams.

There’s a reason why we’re told to make a wish whenever we see 11:11 on the clock. 11 is a master number, and its frequency speeds up manifestation, opening up channels through which angelic beings can send their wisdom and support.

“The number 11 grants us access to the 5th dimension, where the constraints of time and space do not exist. On 11/11, we experience 5D energy in the form of synchronicity, alignment, and acceleration. You might experience that “right place, right time” feeling – the reassurance that you’re on the right path, and everything you’re seeking is seeking you in return.”

The Law of Attraction, based on the Hermetic Principles, teaches us that everything we manifest is created by thought: Where your attention goes, energy flows. Every second, you’re thinking things into existence – so on this day, pay attention to where your thoughts tend to wander.

Are you focused on bright and positive outcomes, or are you subconsciously manifesting your worries and fears?

Work with the energy of 11/11 to positively channel your thoughts in service of your highest path. I recommend meditating at 11:11 am or 11:11 pm to best harness the magic.

Set aside 11 minutes to close your eyes and go within, visualizing what you desire and how it would feel if you’d already received it. Yes?

Another simple way to harness this energy is to free flow and write for 11 minutes about all your heart’s desires and intentions. At the end of the 11 minutes, go back and highlight the words that inspire you, make you feel hopeful, excited and then formulate them into an intention.

If you wanted to go a step further you could make a sacred Sigil!

And if you want to ramp it up a bit more, use the fabulous phrase that can really Unfuck you!

Ready? Super simple, but super powerful when faced with confusion, stagnation and all the rest of that dross.

The phrase is “AM I WILLING?” e.g:- Am I willing to do the work to make a change? Am I willing to turn my anger and grief towards something constructive? Am I willing to get off the sofa and go to the gym to lose weight? Am I willing to release those relationships that drain me? AM I FUCKING WILLING TO MAKE CHANGE?

If you can’t come up with anything to put on your AM I WILLING list. Turn it around and ask yourself the same question in a different way: “WHAT AM I NOT WILLING TO DO OR PUT UP WITH?” e.g:- I am not willing to put up with this abusive relationship. I am not willing to continually struggle. I am not willing to be continually dismissed. I am not willing to feel unhealthy………..

Are you getting it now? Dare you to give it a try, it’s quite fascinating to play with, write down and it most certainly unravels those threads that can make you feel like you are tied up in a knot and disempowered (that’s what Fear does to us).

Okay enough chuntering, let’s see what guidance wants to talk to you this week.

Take a deep breath gorgeous one, relax the jaw and allow the spark of Hope come into your heart. Breathe it in and ask it to help you.

If you need a bit more to help you, here’s a wee glorious visualisation for Hope.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

W.I.T.C.H.

Control. No woman alive today needs a dictionary to know what control means within a toxic patriarchy.

She’s experienced it a thousand different ways before she’s hit puberty. It’s alive in the curves of her psyche, in the expanse of her hips, in the marrow of her bones.

It is domination and restraint.

But in a blanched psyche and in a balanced culture, control can mean something else entirely..

A WITCH experiences control through cooperation rather than competition. She engages with all the parts of her psyche in an attempt to coordinate rather than dominate.

Right now, right this minute, please embrace all the inhabitants of your inner realm, because each deserves respect and a place at the table. Even the unruly, the inconvenient, the ugly.

Making space for all under the banner of wild inclusion and giving voice to the shame, malice and anger, as well as every other outlawed part of the psyche, is the way we create integrity, ensuring that no part of our inner realm is involved with factions, divisions or rebellions.

When your intent is to create rather than compete, you don’t have to dominate.

Your influence is enough.

This is power with rather than power over.

Invite in all the pieces of yourself, all the things that are bothering you today and wrap them in the blanket of inclusion and assert your authority.

HARPY OF RAGE

Rage can be purifying.

Like the harpies of Homeric poems, rage can bring the storm winds that scour and wipe a landscape clean.

While this may seem a destructive force on the surface, rage, like the harpies, can bring change and shift landscapes both internal and external.

Quiet or loud, a wild howl or a hiss in the dark, anger is both purposeful and natural, so stop bottling it and shoving it away in order to be pleasing.

So much more powerful to gather your rage. Rather than shrieking into the wind where passion can be swallowed, you will find your branch, and settle into a position of power.

Using your authority, you will choose your time, and cry out your claim.

Offer your anger to your art, your cause, your community, resulting in a rallying song of change.

A W.I.T.CH pours her rage into her creativity, advocacy and commitment.

She’s also willing to peck out and devour rage against her own self through the radical wings of self-forgiveness.

THE PREDATOR

You know the voice of the psyche that wants you to comply or conform in order to fit in, or shames you for being selfish, or tells you it’s honourable and responsible to deny your longing, demanding you fold your dreams away into a people-serving-shaped box?

It’s a predator you adopted as family.

The voice condemning and convincing you that following your desires will hurt other people?

It’s inside you. The call is coming from inside the house!

That predator is an unholy inquisitor.

He might have first showed up outside of you in your original home, church or school, and most certainly in our culture as a whole. But he is now alive as the inner patriarchy.

It’s the force that wants to control you in order to keep you small and unthreatening. It’s moved into the psyche, as it does generation after generation, if left unquestioned.

A W.I.TC.H knows it’s purposeful to speak truth to power, to stand up and march for justice, fairness and decency.

But she is also determined to march on behalf of the girl inside of her living with a monster.

She is willing to take to the inner streets to clean up the injustice of bullying thoughts, blaming self-talk, and name calling.

She speaks up for fairness when the internal predatory voice demands she please everyone else before herself.

She embodies fierce decency when her dreams or hungers or passions are shamed and belittled from within.

It is time to take a stand against the unholy inquisition of the psyche, and develop the tools to defeat the toxic patriarchy living there.

You deserve nothing less.

Oh my, oh my, gotta love the guides and the cards

How are you feeling about the ones you picked?

Sending massive hugs on this Remembrance day, breathe and invite in Hope.

Pink Full Moon in Scorpio, are you ready to Flourish! And Beltane is coming – Whoot!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Moonlit, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Manifesting Monday!

How are you most delicious lovely? Happy Earth Day!

We are almost out of Mercury Rx (thank goodness), as I have found this one super tricky, which normally I don’t. Sigh.

In case you didn’t see, the doors to Flourish opened on Friday and I am super excited about this amazing, glorious container. Early bird registration ends on May 1st Beltane, and we start on May 8th.

What is Flourish you may be asking?

Flourish is a sacred 12 week container where NeuroScience meets Psychology and they dance with Spirit and all go and hang out at Divine Timings house for nibbles, change and transformation. Lol. (The music is epic!)

I purposely named it Flourish and have waited until after Beltane as it really embodies the energies that the seasons are showing us and is such growth filled work.

Think about it, a seed holds boundless potential within its tiny form.

It contains the blueprint of the plant it can become: a sturdy oak, a fragrant rose, or a nourishing tomato plant.

However, it can’t realise this potential, unless planted in favourable conditions.

Like seeds, human beings embody unlimited potential.

They possess skills, talents, and abilities waiting to be nurtured and developed. But just like seeds they need to push the shit and dirt out of the way……… Yes.

What if it was easy, and you learned the full Divine Timing cycle and practical tools to allow you to Flourish and live the life you wanted?

So if you would like to join Flourish, please do – I will say I am keeping the container smaller than larger as this is deep, rich work and I want to ensure everyone is supported.

On Tuesday (like tomorrow), we have the glorious Pink Full Moon in Scorpio. (Which again embodies the energy of Flourish.)

Depending on where you live, Spring may be in full season, or newly formed buds are just beginning to take shape.

Determined tulips and daffodils push their way forward, destined to show off a bright, brilliant display of colours.

The air simmers with anticipation and possibilities! We are entirely immersed in the season of Spring and with it, themes of prosperity and a deep internal mindset shift.

The Pink Moon’s spiritual meaning is about optimism for the future and anticipating goals and dreams coming to fruition.

This is a time to fully focus on the present.

We’re past the planning stages and have begun implementing changes we’ve been plotting and scheming all Winter.

Trust yourself as you attempt to change and grow. Allow yourself the chance to fail and the courage to try again.

Be willing to adapt or completely change your initial strategy to help your intentions to be successful and long-lasting.

Remember to prioritise balance and nourish your spirit to avoid burnout.

This will help you remain focused and clear-headed.

Place boundaries when needed and recognize what you need to let go of to move forward.

With the Pink Moon in Scorpio you need to remember, there is something about the transformative energies of Scorpio coupled with the deeply intuitive, feminine energies of the Full Moon that make it a powerful time to step into a more connected place.

The outside world may feel chaotic, our emotions may feel all over the place, and maybe yes, there is some struggle, but if we go deeper, if we travel within, the Scorpio Full Moon can bring gifts of deeper wisdom, heightened intuition, and renewal.

Then we top that off with Beltane next Wednesday on 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 your intention and decide how you’re going to Flourish!

(We will talk more about Beltane next week).

With that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading.

I frigging grinned when I saw the cards that wiggled and jiggled to come and guide this glorious week are The Isis Oracle. Have you ever asked who Isis is? Goddess of the Skies, Magick and Wisdom are just a few of the titles she is given.

Let me take a moment to introduce you to this lovely deck – “You are a powerful Soul and you are awakening. Your thoughts, feelings and inner world is changing, and so too is your outer world. When a Soul is growing in power and strength, it can benefit from guidance to help make the path into a new way of being in the world that much easier.

Isis offers Her wisdom and guidance to you to assist you at this time of spiritual growth and transition. She loves you, and wants you to shine and be your radiant self, filled with power and wisdom.”

Okay let’s drop in, ground and get present, yes? I have a lovely visualisation to help you anchor into heaven and earth if you so desire. If not, just breathe in slowly through your nose and then sigh it out through your mouth. Allow yourself to settle and as you do I invite you to welcome in Gaia, Nature, Magick and the whispers. Let them play in your mind space and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that invite you to come play.

There’s a lovely guided visualisation to help you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we see, yes?

LIFE RESTORED

Spiritual resurrection is gifted to you now. Whatever part of you or your life you thought to be dead is being revived and will flourish back into life. Just as the Phoenix rises from the fire, transitioning from death, into life, so too will you rise again, healed and renewed.

Any trauma, ending, struggle or apparent defeat is not the end of the story for you now. What may appear to be an ending can sometimes simply be the forces of Ancient Feminine Power flowing into new pathways, pulling energy away from old forms so that they can transition into new forms.

This can take short or long periods of time. It could be over days or years, weeks, months, decades. It doesn’t matter how long something appears to have been decaying, it will spring back into life at the right time.

Just as the River Nile subtly adjusts its course over time, so too will the River of Light that flows through you, filling you with life force and Divine Energy, move with innate wisdom.

You can trust what is happening for you now.

Something important to you is coming back to life. It might even feel like you are coming back to life after a period of increasing emotional numbness, physical or psychological struggle or spiritual disillusionment. It might also be a lifestyle, practice, business or relationship – new or old – that is coming to life now.

You are guided by Divine Priestess of the Phoenix, Sister Isis, to turn your face to the Sun. Just as the Sacred Scarab Beetle follows the movement of the Sun, you are encouraged to focus on the light and life that is seeking you now.

Do not resign yourself to the way things have been. Let go of the past!

Have hope and optimism. The past is over. Enjoy your rebirth.

WINGS OF ISIS

You have a special spiritual relationship with the angelic worlds. Part of your Soul’s purpose is to birth angelic consciousness and values such as fearlessness, compassion and service, into this human culture.

Wings of Isis bring you angelic assistance and intervention, and confirmation that any impressions you may have had that you belong not only to the human kingdom but also to the angelic one, are correct.

This is no small task and although you are well equipped to succeed, there are beings that wish to assist you so that they may grow too and your success may be more graceful and swift. Isis, Divine winged mother, goddess and angel of healing, wishes to assist you with unconditional love now.

You will be asked to lift yourself up to higher and higher vibrational states of awareness and this may mean letting go of certain relationships, practices or states of being or even particular habits or thought patterns that would lower your vibration into fear, doubt or shame.

Give yourself permission to just let this happen. You do not need to force anything.

It is a matter of softening, allowing and trusting what feels right for you with absolute faith and bold, radical acceptance. It will be OK!

The more you accept this part of you, the more you shall draw into your world others like you.

You will just feel comfortable with each other, because you all hold a similar refined vibration.

Even in the midst of ordinary, everyday relationships, there is a sense of easy connection, mutual understanding and spiritual acknowledgment. The angels send you love and peace now and say, “We are with you, beloved one.”

KNOT OF ISIS

Each initiate has their own unique spiritual blueprint with particular skills, talents and higher destinies unfolding that use their unique attributes.

Part of your spiritual blueprint is a special relationship to the energies of the Goddess.

This means that not only do you have the important spiritual task of helping Her thrive in this world but you are afforded Her power, protection and abundance too. You are now deepening your connection to Her.

Part of your High Destiny this lifetime is to heal and flourish through the Divine Feminine in Her many forms, especially in those forms that truly resonate and hold meaning for you.

This healing will happen on your personal path and may well be part of the work that you offer in service to the world (which may be simply in how you live your life.

Your Soul is braiding or twining with the Divine Feminine energies in a particular form. For some that will be a specific goddess and the energetic process will often be strong and deep.

The Initiate will feel as if they are integrating the part of this goddess that is not just in them, but is a part of their own consciousness. It is a deeply personal, spiritually powerful and beautiful growth experience for the Soul. This process does not make you lose your individuality.

Listen to your body-soul as it grows with Divine Feminine wisdom and trust that She will guide you, whether man or woman, deeper into your own healing which benefits us all.

Ahhhhh, holy hannah as the reading unfolded I could feel goosebumps on my arms. Okay, the messages are clear, what are you going to do with yours? So delicious and lovely bean, I wish you a stupendous week, one filled with lifting your eyes up to the heavens and feeling your feet firmly on the earth, gorgeous belly laughs and glorious food! Thank you all for your amazing messages and emails, I appreciate them so much. Huge hugs and squeezes!

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

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

All of which I can totally understand and appreciate.

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

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

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

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

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

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

But how to deal with those feelings of overwhelm?

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

Great Jenny, but how??????

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

PENGUIN – AUTHENTIC

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Break free from others’ expectations.

Love your uniqueness. Just be Yourself!

RAVEN – SHAMAN

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

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

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

You are the creator and magician.

Use your gifts for good.

There is power in your wisdom and words.

Connect with the elemental spirits

And glide through the void.

Claim your place as Keeper of the Mysteries.

RAM – PERSEVERANCE

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

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

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

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

You have many gifts.

No problem can withstand

The power of your mind.

With patience you can reach your mountaintop.

Never give up and good luck will follow.

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