Healing

Post New Moon in Leo and Weekly Reading July 24th.

Happy, happy, happy glorious Monday and post New Moon in Leo (though we are still in that energy). How has your week been? Have you celebrated the New Moon and set your seeds of intention? (Very powerful to do). If you haven’t and still want to, don’t fret – you always have time after the New Moon (the first 24 hours are the most potent) and as New Moon occurred yesterday (Sunday) you always have time and space. This is the New Moon in Leo so it’s all about letting go of pain and suffering – which I am a huge advocate of. You don’t need to wear a hair vest, nor do you need to hold onto the old wounds that are keeping you stuck. Joy is your birthright and only you can tap into that (but you have to put the steamer trunk of old baggage down, unpack it, purge it and then use the steamer trunk as a cool coffee table!)

It’s been an “interesting” week here as the other weekend after a gorgeous hike, I had a fall as I was coming down the mountain – meh, was my response and just kept pushing even though I knew something wasn’t quite right (that’s putting it mildly), I hiked, worked lots, dug up and transplanted things, pushed, pushed and pushed. So by Wednesday my body decided to really kick up and get me to pay attention and slow the heck down – put it this way – I would have rather given birth (and having done so 5 times I can speak with experience) than feel the level of pain that was occurring in my sacrum, which apparently I had twisted and as I hadn’t listened and rested it went into full overload flare, so much so I literally couldn’t walk, move, do anything for a few days. Thank goodness for my stupendous chiropractor and Chinese Medicine Doctor who helped.

Ahhhhh, time to practice what I preach was the message that came through loud and clear, as I am always telling clients, friends, kids – listen to your body, rest, nurture, relax – if you don’t give yourself these gifts your body will make you. Darn! (It was made even worse when my 17 year old son repeated it verbatim to me whilst handing me an icepack!) So that’s what I did, I slept, I used ice, I slept, I used heat, I gently stretched, I slept and sat and looked at all the things that I wanted to do and “should” be doing. The first day I was angry, grumpy and frustrated – but, but, this needs to get done and I have to go there (none of which could happen at that time) and then finally I released my desire to control the outcome and surrendered to asking for help and having to let some things slide for a while and being open to receive and the gifts that came were stupendous! A full reconnect with Divine, gorgeous time just watching the bees and the hummingbirds satiate themselves, following the flight of a huge bald eagle as it circled languidly overhead for about half an hour, playing with crystals and making some glorious pieces for clients and beautiful conversations with my kids (as I had to sit with an icepack they would come out and share their thoughts, feelings, confusion, delights and we would just talk). It also allowed my boys the space to create, nurture and show up in a different way and so cheesecakes were made, laundry was done, daily vacuuming and just a totally different level of care, tenderness and awareness – they were amazing and exceptionally lovely.

So it made me think about breathe, receive, allow and come home. Rest, sacred rest. So I have created a little visualisation on that topic as it is so incredibly important. Rest is not wasteful, selfish or weak – rest is vital, important and courageous. We don’t have to do it all on our own, but sometimes we need to get out of our own way and create space to allow the Universe/Divine, friends, family, random strangers to offer their gifts and be willing to receive them as a gift. Because they are.

So with that being said (I have seemed to have chuntered on a bit), let’s get on with the reading. This was done outside with the crows chortling to their babies, a squirrel doing a mad dash up the trellis and a dragonfly sauntering over the reading. We are working with The Divine Circus this week, which is interesting as I thought it might be one of the other decks, but no – this lovely deck literally jumped into my hands. The crystals who chose to come are Mookaite – a stone of here and now, Sodalite -a stone of idealism and truth, Pink Tourmaline – cleansing the emotional body of destructive feelings. Here is your visualisation and if you want to skip it, all good.

So take a moment, breathe and drop back into your body. Listen to the visualisation if you feel inclined, or just breathe and see yourself as a conduit as you breathe in pull the earth energy up through your feet. As you breathe out through your nose breathe in the glorious Universal energy. See them flowing up, flowing down as you breathe. You are a glorious conduit and can tap into these energies at any moment at any time. When you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you this week. Trust.

Are you ready to go see the message or the energy that wants to work with you this week?

STEAMPUNK PRIESTESS

Appearances can deceive; yet when the time is right, incisive intuition slices through the illusion and the truth hits you between the eyes. That is the perception of reality behind the illusion. You know it when you experience it and you know that you have to trust in what you see! So give yourself permission to acknowledge and accept the power of those insights. Don’t talk yourself out of the truth. Intuition might only last for a second; and yet it can change the way you look at things forever, setting you on a more authentic course and allowing for changes to take place that you might have previously believed were impossible.

You might need to look closer to understand what is happening, or to trust in what you are already perceiving, even if a part of you doubts it because the truth of the matter in such cases would be so at odds with superficial appearances. Trust in your insight, no matter how startling, surprising or shocking that intuitive hit might be.

Get focused on what matters to you, then you won’t lose precious energy by either worrying about what could go wrong or trying to sort something out in your head. When the time is right, even the most confusing situation is going to come into focus, and your understanding of the matter, and what you need to do or not do, will be crystal clear. Set an intention for clarity and trust in what you see!

THE PROUD PIERETTE

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

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

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

DATE WITH DESTINY

Out of the ether and into your life, she arrives now because you have a date with Destiny. She is a mysterious creature; her ways are wild and her guidance is true. She may create chaos from which a new order can emerge, but there is no need to fear. She has come to inspire, uplift and direct you.

A date with Destiny is a big deal. It is the moment when you realise there is something helping you out, something intelligent, powerful, wise and, no matter how empowered you are, something even more powerful than your own efforts. All bets are off! Nothing is held sacred and anything can happen. If you are a control freak, this will probably scare you witless! You need to trust Destiny’s interventions on your behalf, even if her work seems to be causing your best intentions to go astray. Trust or go mad because you cannot control her. And you do not need to! Your divine destiny is your best life. It is you in the fullest and most beautiful creative expression possible. It is what you want and need, even when you don’t immediately realise it, even when that is rather different to what you once thought you wanted and needed.

The Universe has heard the prayers in your heart, and life is going to answer them by rearranging what needs to be rearranged to sort out whatever has been troubling you. Make sure you let it happen. The more you allow yourself to trust in her, the more you will realise that the universe is working with you, rather than against you, and if you are willing, it will show you the time of your life!

So glorious one, I wish you a supreme week. Remember to practice sacred rest time, play time and just BEing time. The laundry, the inbox, the dusting can all wait. You have this moment, make it epic, fun and delicious. Oh yes, and don’t use a mixed bag of frozen veggies as an ice pack – they do eventually leak down your bottom!

I would also like to say thank you for the myriad of delightful emails last week, I most certainly appreciate them and thoroughly love and enjoy connecting with you all. Oh yes, remember – Breathe. Receive. Allow. And Come Home.

It’s Hawt!!! Weekly Reading June 26th.

Jenny Heston · 3:03 pm ·

Happy, happy uber hawt Monday! Did you have a delicious Solstice and a relaxing weekend? I hope so. The temperature here has decided to go into the mid 30’s C and so it’s hot, hot, hot! I put in a garden this Spring so I have been running around moving sprinklers, making sure everything is well watered and tended. I realised today that if I put the sprinkler where it needed to go, and looking at the location of the tap – I was going to get wet getting back to where I needed to be. Oh well, it had to happen, the new plants need water.

So I turned the tap on and the sprinkler burst into life, throwing water all over the place and as I made my way back I was most certainly getting sprayed! Then all of a sudden a memory came flooding up. A memory of when I was little and my friends Mum would put the sprinkler on for us on hot, hot days and we would squeal with delight as we ran through the spray in our swimsuits. Water spraying up into our faces and the grass getting slick under our feet and the pure abandonment and joy of just playing! So guess what I did? I ran through the frigging sprinkler and got absolutely drenched and cooled down and laughed my soxs off. I highly recommend it! I felt very refreshed, revitalised and had glorious fun.

Thus, with it being so hot I decided it would be fun to find a cool patch of grass and do the reading there, so that is exactly what I did and there are even little buttercups that came and joined us. The deck that jumped out to play this week was The Divine Circus, again. Interesting that it keeps wanting to come play. The crystals in use this week are:- Stilbite, Rose Quartz and Aragonite. Stilbite is great for expanding consciousness and organising the chaos of the mind, Rose Quartz is the loveeee crystal and Aragonite is most certainly an all chakra stone.

To help you get grounded and clear, there is a brief visualisation if you would like.

I invite you to take a few moments and just roll your shoulders up back and down, keep doing this whilst breathing deeply, in through your nose and out through your mouth. See in your heart space a glorious ball of light – breathe into it,what colour is it, how does it feel? With that knowing of connection and trust, pick the card or cards that call to you this week.

Let’s go take a look shall we?

THE JUGGLER

Many projects in the air, aspirations and inspirations everywhere. Action to take, commitments to make and yet another will soon join the fray! Say yes, do not delay. It will all work out in the perfect way.

You are capable of many things and you are too important an asset to the plan of love on this planet to be left idle. So life, the universe and your own creative urges will ask a lot of you. There will be many inspirations, ideas and dreams that you will yearn to bring to life in the world. You might wonder if it’s all a bit too much for any one person to handle. You might feel you are juggling so much already that if even one more demand or idea comes through, you’ll drop the balls already in the air, and the whole damn thing will come undone!

The Juggler is the master multi-tasker. He brings the skills wisdom and tricks you need to not only successfully bring to life all your current dreams and ideals, but to be open to even more flowing through you. If you feel overwhelmed, you are letting yourself get ahead of yourself, allowing your mind to move too far into the future. Bring it back to now, to just what can be done now. Let tomorrow take care of itself. Prioritise, what do you need to do most today, and what can be left until later? Remember to ask for help and remember that your individual success is actually part of the greater group success. The universe wants you to succeed. It will keep an eye on the pots on the boil whilst you stir the one that is bubbling over now. You are going to manage all that is going on in your life if you remember to stay present and relax, deal with what is immediately happening and not worry about any other distractions. You’ll not only handle all that’s currently going on, but when another opportunity heads your way, you’ll add it to the mix with grace!

SWEETHEART

You’ve know violence in your life; maybe on the outside, maybe on the inside with a mind that has tortured you with fear, shame, darkness and doubt. Enough of that now. It is time for a gentler way – less pain, more gain. No more torture. It’s your time for sweets and treats.

There is so much violence in the world, and in our own minds, that we can assume this is just the way of the world, that we have to accept it, deal with it, and thereby forget we have the right to question it and even change it, if we so choose. Even the most ambitious desires for healing the world start with us as individuals. We cannot bring more peace to the world if there is violence in our hearts. Regrets, shaming judgements, fear of not being good enough, uncertainty and constant pushing to become more, to do more, to have more, can become the energetic equivalent of beating ourselves up every day. This creates invisible bruises that never have time to heal because we don’t give ourselves the sweetness, kindness and compassion we need to break free from the abusive cycle.

This cycle you are coming to is sweeter, one that is more loving, one that promises new life. But you have to be willing to dispense with the violence, one step at a time. You deserve to give yourself a gentler life journey. Would you accept this for yourself? If there are abusive or toxic relationships in your life, then you’ll need to do some relationship overhauling. No matter how much the people involved may proclaim their love, if underneath it is unhealthy, if a relationship is holding you back rather than helping to lift you up, then reconsider its place in your life.

You can’t taste the sweetness that life wants to bring to you if you are crammed full of stuff you don’t need or want anymore. Create some space. Ready yourself for receiving life’s nectar and believe in the power of your new beginning. You are a true sweetheart of the universe. Let yourself be treated accordingly.

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!

I will say this was an interesting reading to do. This deck when used in this fashion has brought up the Juggler and Sweetheart quite a few times. I don’t see that often, so someone who is reading this is getting a repeated message, which is cool! So gorgeous one, wishing you a stupendous week, there will be no reading on July 3rd as here in Canada it is a long weekend and if the weather holds it is time to go explore up a mountain with a tent, the dogs, the kids and go play in a lake! So I so look forward to seeing you on the 10th. Drink lots of water, remember to put your bare feet in the grass, surround yourself with people you love and that “get you” and laugh tons! Oh yes, and thank you for all the glorious emails and questions, I really appreciate them.

It’s Summer Solstice! – Weekly Reading June 21st

Jenny Heston · 3:48 pm ·

Happy happy Summer Solstice delicious one. I’m so glad and grateful you took the time to come visit! I love Summer Solstice as much as I love Winter Solstice, they are two incredible markers to show us where we are and how the seasons are moving with us. What the heck is Solstice and why bother celebrating it you may possibly ask – if you want to learn more about Solstice there is great information, ideas and suggestions here.

However, in a nutshell why celebrate it, or at least acknowledge it? Because holy hannah honey you are connected, connected to the seasons, the changes, to the planet you live on, to the people around you and even that frigging annoying bug who keeps trying to dash up your left nostril when you’re riding your bike! Let me ask – do you ever pay attention to the moon? Do you ever sit and watch the stars? When you encounter a kid that you knew years ago do you think – wow, they have grown? Have you ever sat next to the ocean and felt the pulse of the waves? Have you ever planted a seed and watched it push up through the ground and flourish into a gorgeous flower? Do you celebrate the first snowfall? These are all seasons, changes and part of life, which is exactly what Summer Solstice marks.

Stonehenge was built over 5,000 years ago and thousands of people to this present day go to celebrate the sun pouring in and hitting the heel stone. This isn’t new, it’s deep, it’s the bones of ancestors and ancestors that make up part of the planet that you walk upon. So let’s go play, celebrate the sun, celebrate the fire energy – burn anything away that no longer serves us and take a moment to put our feet on the earth, reach up to the sun and say YES! Yes, i can love my life, yes – I believe in miracles, yes – I can show up as bright and shiny as the sun. Whoot! (Virtual High 5 is happening). This morning I welcomed in the Solstice by hiking way up a mountain with my friend and our dogs and doing some yummy sun salutations on the top of a large mossy rock. It was fantabulous!

So I did this reading on our old, comfie picnic table. I did it there as this table has seen a myriad of experiences and has sat in the midst of my garden for years upon end. It’s old, it’s solid and it has witnessed births, deaths, friends sobbing, celebrations, egg painting, spiral walks in the snow, candles galore, planting, blossoming, reaping and connection. It has witnessed so much and so many moments of huge connection that it felt like an appropriate place to create this reading. The pieces that begged to come and play are two delicious pieces of Septarian and of course Selenite to amplify and purify. The reading this week is done in a circle, like the sun and is a mix of two different decks.

With no more ado, let’s crack on as this is a BIG reading (see, I forewarned you!) I invite you to stop for a moment, close your eyes down and breathe long and deep, in through your nose and out through your mouth. Just breathe, feel your feet on the ground and gently raise your hands together in prayer pose in front of your heart. Stay here for a moment and breathe into that space, release the impatience and the anxiety. Then gently raise your hands up above your head and open them out so your arms are reaching up and welcoming in the sun. Breathe. Circle them down and take your hands back to prayer position. Do this a few times whilst breathing long and deep and as you breathe, remind yourself “There are no time limitations to my spirit’s work, and therefore all that I do will come to fruition at exactly the right moment.” Then, when you’re ready open your eyes and pick the cards that resonate for you on this glorious Solstice.

Ready to go see?

SEEING THE TRUE YOU

Sometimes we believe what others tell us we are, as though the self we see reflected back to us through their eyes is truth. Yet the accuracy of a reflection depends on the clarity of that which is doing the reflecting! You have been putting rather too much faith in the reflections others have of you – to the point that you might not be honouring all that you are and all that you are becoming, because you believe too little of yourself.

There may be those around you that are able to reflect you more faithfully, and even help you see more of your own greatness and beauty. These are the souls blessed with inner stillness. In the clear waters of their ocean of consciousness, you can come to recognise yourself with clearer perception. However, there are those who have not tended to their own ocean, and are unable to be still enough to genuinely receive and reflect your light back to you. Thus it’s time for you to begin to develop the art of direct perception. This is the ability to recognise yourself with how you experience yourself and how your observe yourself (with compassion and kindness) from within. This is a step towards a radical empowerment that does not require perfection in order for you to recognise you are loveable and have much to offer. It is empowerment based on the acceptance of all that you are, working with your strengths, tending to your weaknesses and being loving, encouraging and nurturing of all that you perceive.

This is a breathtaking experience that opens you up to the creative energy that flows abundantly through all of life. You must be strong within your own self love and acceptance to be able to hold acceptance for all of life! You are being nudged into this preparation, for when you have the experience of truly beholding yourself, all judgement, fear and doubt will fall away and you will just know yourself to be sacred. Don’t get confused about who you are and your motives or actions based on what others are saying or how they are responding to you, step back. More often than not the reflections from others are more about the state of the reflector than what is being reflected. Let those external perceptions go. Can you just acknowledge yourself? Do so and be free!

SWEETHEART

RELEASING ALLEGIANCES

It is time to hold onto yourself and let go of another. Even if just for a time. You have gained all that was meant to be from that connection. At least for now. You have given and you have received. The need to let go does not deny the value of what has been acquired, it is more that the time has come for greater productivity, creativity, abundance and consciousness in your life. You have completed many cycles in the vibrational frequency of consciousness that you are now being asked to release. It is now time to expand into higher frequencies of experience that will bring enhanced love, empowerment and peace into your life. You will take the wisdom of what you have learned with you into something new – new connections, new relationships, new life experiences – at a higher turn of the spiral of life.

Trust that you can step into solitude for a time without being consumed by loneliness. It is time to reconnect with yourself. This is a time for self-love, for paying attention to yourself, for nurturing, holding and being with you. Back yourself! You must be there for yourself because you are doing well, you are on the right path and you are growing. Well done!

HER WICKED WAYS

You are meant to shine bright, to be a sun, even in the cold and dark depths of winter, bringing warmth to the world. Some don’t like the light. They want to freeze your enthusiasm, douse your creative fire and rain on your parade. Don’t let them! Shine your light with stubbornness and happiness. Defeat the Snow Queen and her wicked ways.

The Snow Queen depicted on this car has her wicked ways. She likes to test those that aren’t yet sure of their worth. She will try to freeze you with a glance that conveys criticism, judgement, ridicule. She’ll make you believe that you’ll be humiliated, that it’s inevitable you’ll fail and so it’s better that you just don’t try to begin with. She’ll plant seeds of doubt like a weed in your soul garden, and cause you to lose energy to mental anguish. You’ll find the way of your life more difficult than it needs to be if you don’t take heed of what is happening and use your power to stand up to her.

Whether she arises through a loved one who cannot support you, or a colleague who is envious of you and wants to see you fall, or the voice in your head that is afraid and is yet to really trust your heart to lead you. There is only one way to deal with her. You must stand up tall and true and reply “I am me! Save your soul-slaying, doubt-making for another day. If you stay anywhere near me, I’ll melt you with my creative fire and the warmth of my love. So be gone, it’s time for you to move on!!!!”

FOCUS ON THE LIGHT

A tremendous force of light is gathering around you. It is attracted to the purity of your intention to create from your heart. As your intention grows, so does the light. As the light grows, so does your intention. Magic wants to happen for you now! The synchronicity, perfect timing, opportunities and information that are needed will seem to be drawn right to your door. You may start to feel as if you cannot walk outside without stumbling into something helpful, wonderful and inspiring.

It is best to stay focused on your heart and intentions. Just allow all else to happen of its own accord, without making it mean anything too personal. Simply let it be the workings of the great light of love, flowing through a pure heart and touching the world. Even if the light that is drawn to you and flows through you has some dazzling effects, you don’t have to get caught up in it.

Don’t be distracted by other paths around you at this time as you are too close to succeeding on the one you are on now! Diluting your energies, in the pursuit of too much will slow down your success and the world needs your light to shine sooner rather than later! In time you may diversity and explore other ways to express yourself but for now, build what you are working on and know that success is coming swiftly.

THE JUGGLER

Many projects in the air; aspirations and inspirations everywhere. Action to take, commitments to make and yet another will soon join the fray! Say yes, do not delay. It will all work out in the perfect way.

EVERY JOURNEY STARTS WITH A SINGLE STEP

You are on a journey. Yes, it is an internal journey but there is also a physical expression of this journey that is going to become increasingly important to the fulfilment of your destiny in this lifetime. Your journey has started on the inside but its destination will be the physical expression of an internal healing. This journey will draw upon what you have learned and mastered over the course of your life – so much so, that you may feel as though your life experiences have prepared you just for this particular adventure.

You have all that you need within you. This is not a time to worry about what you are going to take with you. From within your heart, you will sense what needs to come along for the ride and what is best left behind you now. You may be surprised at exactly how much can be left behind without you feeling concerned or anxious. You will be able to travel far lighter than you ever imagined possible. To be best equipped for this journey, you will need a lightness of heart and the realisation that change can be an incredible blessing, even if what you are leaving behind is something you found secure, safe, familiar or comforting. Just as the butterfly leaves the chrysalis behind when it is time to spread its newly formed wings, so too are you ready to leave behind what once was and embrace what is more appropriate for you at this time.

The apparently small steps you are taking in an area of your life, important to you right now, are actually far more powerful and constructive than you realise. Sometimes we are gaining ground but the effect is not immediately obvious. This doesn’t mean that nothing is happening. It simply means that the effects of your actions are cumulative and soon they will begin to overflow into the physical world with a positive impact that my surprise you. Your inner and outer journeys are blessed with positive energy and all you need to do is keep going – one step at a time.

THE VELVET QUEEN

A rare prize is to be bestowed upon you. The universe is confirming that the most luscious dreams of your heart are being nurtured into manifestation. To this end, you shall be given a saving grace, an intervention if needs be. To be open to receive, surrender doubt in favour of unconditional trust. Through your trust and optimism, you make it easier for the universe to give you a most deserved gift. A rare prize is worth the effort to attain it. Your efforts will need to include loving discipline. Loving discipline is not about trying to bend the world according to your will but rather about readying yourself to align with the spirit of what you want to receive.

To receive, rather than attempt to take by force, requires strength, trust, spiritual intelligence and courage. It is easier to try and force things from a fearful place, but it is more effective and empowering to learn how to attract and receive through consciously chosen surrender. This allows the universe to do its best work for you! So it’s time to change your consciousness. Release issues around self-worth. Why should you not be empowered and assisted by the universe to create a life that fills you with joy and feels ‘just right’ for you? Of course you should, can will be! Release any lack of self-worth that would get in the way of your opening in complete trust to the universe.

Your most prized dream is within reach, through a combination of letting life unfold as it will and your own disciplined efforts. Don’t give up. You cannot make the fruit on the tree grow faster – that will happen according to the rhythm of life – but you can certainly do your part to be ready to climb the tree at the right moment to savour the sweetness of success!

So on this delicious Summer Solstice, I wish for you the ability to see how glorious and magnificent you are. You are like a gorgeous mini sun moving in this world and we most certainly need that! So take some time to put your feet on the earth, raise your arms to the sky and say to yourself “I AM, I AM!” (Oh yes and light a fire, or a candle or do something to acknowledge the day, the season and yourself.) Huge hugs and see you on Monday!

It’s almost Solstice! June 12th Weekly Reading

Jenny Heston · 2:59 pm ·

Happy, happy fantabulous Monday! It is wonderful to see you here! How was your week? Did you play with the full moon energy that happened last week? Are you enjoying sunshine, the smell of flowers and reveling in the abundance that is blooming forth?

Energy is starting to ramp up here as we head towards Summer Solstice and just prior to that – high school graduation. My lovely son (4th out of 5 kids) is graduating high school this coming weekend, so last Friday his suit had been altered and we had to go check it out. It made me laugh a tad as I watched this “child” of mine in track pants and a t-shirt enter the dressing room, to hear requests for help with all the buttons, to then watch him step out in a lovely suit, pink vest and pink bowtie. Hang on, my kid went in the changing room and a strapping young man dressed to the nines came out! (I had to go look inside and make sure it wasn’t a magic portal or like the Tardis in Dr. Who!).

Grad here is a huge performance and I will be honest, I don’t totally understand it and from a lot of the kids that are graduating there is an apathy about certain parts. However, it seems to be that we need to re-enact the graduation of people from 30 years ago with Cap and Gown on Friday night, then a Grand March on Saturday, followed by a Cavalcade through town, then off to their Prom and an After Party that follows that! Phew! It isn’t quite what I would pick as a rite of passage or a celebration by any stretch, but it is tough trying to chivvy against conservative traditions to say the least. Thus, we are going with the flow and it will all be wonderful (touch wood).

The cards that came tumbling out to help this week are the Wild Kuan Yin Oracle, so yummy delicious and very strong and clear. The crystals that insisted on their place this week are Sodalite, Sardonyx and Red Snowflake Obsidian, quite an interesting mix to say the least. So let’s see what’s in store for this week. Take a few moments to get clear and present, and if you feel inclined ask a question, pose a situation, emotion, thought that you would like some support with. If you feel like a bit of support with getting deliciously centred there is a fun little visualisation for you.

So trust yourself and pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Ready to go have a little look see?

BLESSING OF THE KITE DANCER

I recognise immense potential and talent within you, beyond what you can see for yourself. I know that you are willing to develop into all that you are, and so I shall become your divine mentor. I will encourage and guide you, as you manifest your potential, develop and express your talents and fulfill your divine destiny. Sometimes I will evoke the best in you through opportunity, sometimes I will coax forth the best in you through challenge. What you can be assured of is success on this path of self-development. Life has offered you much natural ability and talent. I will help you discover and develop it so that you can offer it back to life as a gift of gratitude.

You have been gifted with a talent, an ability. You may or may not be aware of this talent. It may be an ability to write, draw, paint, dance, or a myriad of others. Or it may be a more unusual and rare gift of being able to organise and rally people together for events with purpose and to motivate others to do their best. Or perhaps you have some other sort of talent that is hard to articulate, define or pin down, but is real nonetheless. If you have no idea what talent lies within, then this gorgeous oracle indicates a process of discovery for you as well as personal development. All you need to do is attend to your spiritual path and personal growth and all else will unfold as it needs to, whether you understand it at the time or not.

This is not a slight ability that may be fun for a while to explore, it is a genuine talent that needs to be developed for a life path to be successful. Taking this particular journey, discovering, exploring and developing this particular ability, will bring you into a sense of your calling, into a deep sense of spiritual satisfaction. If you are feeling pressured by other commitments, even by family members or social networks, to step away from your personal work, spiritual path and commitment to your inner journey. There is work you are doing that will be of benefit to the larger human collective. That sort of contribution takes commitment and you are not selfish in honouring that commitment. No matter how ordinary you may feel at times – you are special! You are unique, you have value. Learning to live truthfully as yourself, and being that self in the world, is a way to honour the life that you have been given.

Love yourself as the Divine Mother does, with great generosity and affection. You deserve no less.

GRANDMOTHER ENSURES SAFE CROSSING

You have a journey ahead of you. There is a particular path that you are meant to take, so that you shall be in the right place at the right time, to encounter the experiences that you are meant to have and the people that you are meant to meet. This journey will lead you across the water, far away from what you have known. To bear the crossing of the water, you must lose sight of the shore. It is part of your destiny, your sacred life path, to take this journey. So although you may feel excitement or fear, hope or uncertainty about whether you are up to the task, know that it is meant for you and Grandmother shall watch over you. She shall give you means for the journey and ensure that the crossing of the water is safely undertaken. Be light of heart, beloved, even as you may mourn what is left behind, for this journey is divinely blessed and will bring great success.

There are times in life when we must cross the water if we are to grow rather than wither and retract. To grow requires courage but offers the reward of radiance and fulfillment beyond what we have experienced. To cross the water implies more than simply taking a trip, it refers to a more life-changing experience of committing to and taking a journey. A journey is not only an external experience, it is an internal adventure too. Such an adventure offers us opportunities to mature – to open our minds, to become wiser, more tolerant, more curious and less certain of how life should be. We can experience ourselves in different ways. It can be uncomfortable but exciting, certainly it will involve venturing into the unknown. You may have to leave behind support systems in many senses and become more reliant upon yourself and the inner guidance or your heart. But don’t fret, the Divine Mother will provide the necessary tour guide or person with greater experience to help you along your journey. The crossings of water could be physical or it could be where you leave behind a state of being or consciousness in favour of another.

Do not imagine that where you find yourself is to be your resting place. There is more for you in your life, further adventure awaits you. There will be a sense that every life lesson you have struggled through and mastered will have bearing and offer support to navigate the journey you are taking now or will soon embark upon. The sanctuary, guidance and protection of the Holy Grandmother is with you to ensure the success of your journey. Grandmother watches over the weaving of past,, present and future. She understands that what happens now is the planting and fertilising of the soul seed which will come to blossom more fully in accordance with your divine life purpose. She will nudge you when you need to be nudged, comfort you when you become uncertain, and provide the means for you to take step after step towards your destination. You are being asked to grow, but the success will be there if you are willing to take this journey.

TENDER TRUST, BELOVED BODY

I have so much that I want for you. I want you to experience all that life has to offer. I want you to see your dreams coming alive in the world. I want you to feel at home here upon the earth, and to realise you have come here not only to serve, but to take delight, to become alive, to exercise your power of choice to manifest a destiny that is brilliant and beautiful and perfectly suited to you. So I have given you a sacred animal, a devoted body that has offered its entire life in service to your soul growth. This is a precious gift and one worthy of respect. When you love this sacred animal, and let him or her love you in return, your body and soul become as one, a divine wild love child of life. Only then are you able to experience all that I can offer you and to manifest your divine destiny as a radiant, vibrant expression in the world.

Be present to recognise and receive the gifts and opportunities that are rightfully yours. Take time to be open and connected to your physical body and the physical reality you can experience through being connected to your body. Look around you. Feel what is happening within you and around you too. Notice what is being offered to you and if it feels right, say yes. Receive. It may seem challenging at first – perhaps even scary – to be so present, so open to life in its entirety. You may not be certain you will always take pleasure in what comes your way. You are at a point on your journey where something in the spiritual realm wants to come to life in the physical world. There is an inspiration, idea or plan that is ready to take form, to take shape, to become more than a fantasy and become a living reality.

For this to happen, you need the birthing container of your body. Your body is like a holy instrument through which the sacred breath can flow and create sound. It is the vehicle through which the inspiration can become a manifest reality. It is the time to experience more heaven upon the earth. It is time for your spiritual life to become more physically-oriented, for dreams to translate into reality, and for you to experience the Divine not only in the spiritual energies but also through experience of your body and the world of nature. It’s time to heal the relationship between you and your body so you dreams can manifest more often and with greater pleasure on your part. There is no point in the body having great wisdom and power to heal itself if you don’t give it a chance to use that power for repair, then growth, then glorious manifestation!

Well that was certainly fabulous, as we went from talent/gift, to personal journey to integrating it into the body! I love the cards, I frigging love them (have I said I love them?) So delicious one I wish a week filled of ease, effortlessness and flow for you and that you take some time every day to feel your feet on the earth, your heart beaming out love and your arms reached up and high to receive all the gifts that are just waiting for you! As I mentioned prior, with Grad this weekend and tons of family here, there will NOT be a reading on Monday – HOWEVER – as it is Summer Solstice next week, we are going to have some fun and do a reading on the Solstice, so expect to see it on Wednesday. If there is anything in particular you want put into the Solstice fire just drop me a line and I will happily bring it in. Huge hugs and slobbery kisses and see you on the Solstice!

Faieries, Magic and Miracles – oh my! Weekly Reading May 29th.

Jenny Heston · 2:31 pm ·

Happy fabulous Monday and for those of you in the States and the UK – Happy Long Weekend! Whoot! Whoot! We had our long weekend last weekend and it was quite delicious to have time in the sun (it is a balmy 32C here) and play, garden, sleep in and just relax. I did feel rather like a lizard, shedding layer upon layer of clothes and basking in the sun whilst gardening (which is not the smartest thing to do for a redhead – tad crunchy at the moment). However, with the weather being lovely, the tools came out and a new planter has been built, some seeds are planted, the heritage tomatoes are still debating exactly where they want to be and lovely new perennials have been put in. Oh yes, and then everything got a glorious compost tea (incredibly stinky, but oh so delicious and nutritious).

I did experience a couple of first world, single parent problems. First, when your kids are out and you come home in a fitted dress with the zip up the back – how do you get out of it if you can’t reach the zipper all the way? (Paperclips is the answer, linked together!) Second, when the kids are out and you want to spend the whole day digging, moving rock, talking to the plants, how do you get sunscreen on your back? My sister suggested that the dogs could do it, but with them not having opposable thumbs, it makes it a tad tricky, plus they drool a lot!

I have a gorgeous new deck that I was sure would want to come play, but nope – still acting rather shy and wanted to just hunker down and watch, so the delicious and edgy Divine Circus hopped up loud and proud and insisted they were the ones for the job!

We moved about 9 months ago and right before winter I built a fairy bench around a massive stump (10 foot). As I have spent the majority of the weekend and the day outside it felt totally appropriate to do the reading on the fairy bench, because trust me – it is a gorgeous spot to sit and watch fairies dash in and out (ask my cat, she sees them all the time). It’s a gorgeous place to reflect, to sit and watch the changes that occur in nature and to celebrate miracles. Also at the top of this stump was where I fed the birds during the winter and I noticed a glorious sunflower growing up through the bench, so it had to happen!

All the crystals are citrine, the sunshine and manifestation, magical crystal.

Lets go, I invite you to take a minute to just settle into your body, if possible put your feet as close to the earth as possible and just breath. If you feel like a little visualisation to help, there is one for you here. When you’re ready, pick your card(s) and see who wants to work with you this week.

Shall we go see?

THE GOOD GEISHA

You are clever. You know how to play an impressive game of strategy to win approval and gain allies. Even without always noticing it consciously, you can sense what people want. Sometimes you are so good at showing others what they want to see that you forget how beautiful you are when you are just being you. But your time has come, the time to unveil the one true real you and attract the allies who are not interested in what you can do for them, but who love your for who you really are.

Any promise of success, love or wealth that begins with you contorting yourself into something you are not is a false promise. It cannot deliver anything worthy of you. You are not one of those fearful souls, but you know what it is like to have been caged in an invisible prison, a way of thinking and being that is not good for you. In times gone by, your soul has been shackled, your voice silenced, your true beauty hidden under more “appropriate” and “acceptable” guises, your intentions misunderstood and your words misconstrued. You’ve been like a beautiful wild creature, captured as though somehow you could be tamed and changed!

Be unafraid to discover the depths of your own being coming to life. If you do not, you shall bind yourself to a life far too bland for the colour and majesty of your soul. Being what another wants you to be is a false promise of love, and you are destined for love, real, wild, pure and true. Make sure you start by giving it to yourself, then you can share it with others and receive it from others too.

CONFETTI

You will soon have cause for celebration. Whether a big win or a token gain affirming that the best is yet to come, sweet success is headed your way. Prepare to celebrate! It’s time to find the celebratory spirit within. Maybe you already feel it, or maybe it’s the last thing in the world you can imagine feeling right now, but whether it’s on your radar or not, a cause for celebration is imminent.

It’s time to spend your energy in playfulness. If you want more success, happiness and celebration in your life, you can enhance that right now by being happy for the success of others around you. Do you know that success is like a wave? When you genuinely congratulate another and feel happy for their happiness, your own energy field gets a jolt of that same energy. You attract it into your own life. You deserve success for all you are and all you’ve accomplished just as much as anyone else.

So be happy for another – even if a part of you wonders if there is enough to go around, if maybe they have taken your piece of the pie, or if you wonder if their success is really served. Let such thoughts be without adding to their power for thinking such a way. Just take charge and choose how you want to respond. Be happy for them and be happy for you as the universe is giving you notice of a party – and you are most definitely meant to attend – and it’s heading your way.

DARK HARLEQUIN

Bells are ringing from deep inside. Something that once had to hide is seeking your attention. It want out! It wants to be free! As you release what was once shut away, your discomfort shall turn to glee. You are a spiritual adventurer! You are not afraid to go to the edge of what you know, of who you have believed yourself to be. Even when before you there lies the darkness of unknown worlds, of undiscovered parts of you, even when you feel uncertainty, discomfort or doubt, you are still willing to figure out what it’s all about,

So you’ve come to a place in you, and in your life, where you don’t know. You don’t know what’s happening. You don’t know how to work through it. You don’t know who you are (well, not all of who you are). You don’t know what you don’t know. You are at the point of not knowing because you are growing. There will be surprises. There will be discoveries. You’ll feel awkward at times, like you are trying to see in the dark.

Don’t be afraid to let there be some inner rattling and rampaging. You are at a time when you are naturally diving into the darkness for a healing purpose. So ask the difficult questions. Do things you wouldn’t normally do. Experiment with thinking in ways you wouldn’t normally think. Be willing to let everything change for the better by first letting go of how things are now. The messier your inner world seems to be right now, the more you can expect complete and utter transformation as a new order comes into form. Expect the unexpected, for you were born to grow into what is happening now. It’s time to let the wild thing out!

So my gorgeous faerie of fabulousness! I wish for you sun filled days, cool evenings and time to tap into the magic, miracles and wonderment that surrounds you – you just have to be willing to see it. Oh yes and if you have an answer to either of my first world problems, would love to hear it! See you next week and you are always welcome to contact me.
