Healing

If Not Now, When? If Not You, Who? New Year and New Decade – are you Willing to Show Up and Shine?

Whoot! Happy New Year and Happy Monday. Do you realise this is the first Magickal, Marvelous, Magnificent Monday of the New Decade and the New Year!! And trust me there is so much to natter about and share this week! So grab a tea and get ready………

But first, how was your holiday season? Tell me you laughed lots, didn’t take on too much and that your credit card feels healthy, yes? Personally, I had a very different but amazing holiday season. On Xmas Eve I went and prepped a shed ton of veggies (and I’m talking in the 100’s of lbs level), then Xmas Day I was so honoured to set up and serve people who are experiencing challenges. It was amazing, the conversations, the laughter, the stories – I was so blown away and it made me feel humble. Especially when one chappie in his 40’s shared with me that the smells and taste of the food reminded him of his grandmothers home and that the dinner had made him feel that he had community and family.

Thus, we did our family Xmas on Boxing Day and it was fun and relaxed, play time in the morning, a little break, gorgeous dinner with friends and family and a ridonculous game! So good. I had gifted myself with time to just BE and reflect, rejuvenate, refresh from Boxing Day until today – but it was fascinating to see that as I resisted that quiet time on the very first day! The Universe very kindly handed me a corker of a cold, and the weather turned into torrential rain and wind storms! But all good. So many gifts in being quiet and really just Being. So much so that on New Years Eve I turned down a wonderful gathering to have a date with myself. I bought flowers, the food I wanted to eat, the beverages I wanted to drink, cleaned the house, lit the fire and wow! Then wrote, and had massive downloads, which have tied into something I have been creating for a year. Very cool.

So here we are in the first week of 2020 and what is in play? Well we have a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn on the 10th, which is all about nurturing yourself and others and finding that balance. Now if you aren’t aware Capricorn and Saturn are huge players this year. Capricorn is all about ambition, work, climbing higher, doing what you say you will. Saturn is known as The Lord of Karma – so expect karmic awakening. Then we have Uranus going direct right before the eclipse and Uranus is all about freedom, waking you up. Sounds great doesn’t it, but what does it all mean?

I would never say that I’m an Astrologer, I have a good understanding, but I certainly don’t understand it all. But as Kari shares this year is all about Building Your Dreams Step by Step from the ground up, with an appreciation that sometimes we have to tear down a structure to rebuild. If you want to know more, I highly recommend Kari Samuels forecast and gosh she makes me smile everytime as she is so cheerful and knowledgeable.

Then if we look at the Shamanic energy from Lena, the energy of the month is, IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

“There is a ruthless quality to the month as we set ourselves up for the coming times requiring good boundaries, the courage to face the truth, and the discipline to DO IT NOW. If not now, when? Time is up for diddling around with “sort of” intentions and action plans.”

So let me ask, did you make New Year’s Resolutions? What were they? I will be honest, I gave up that practice about 14 years ago for many reasons and I work with WOTY (Word of the Year). My word for this year is “EXPANSIVE”, and even as I say it, my chest opens, my arms move back and my heart shines! If this is a new concept for you, let me help you with why Word of the Year works!

Gone is the time of dithering or sitting on your thumb. Now is the time to step up and shine with what is true for you, and comes from your heart.

Without getting on a political soapbox all we have to do is look around as to what is happening in the first week of the New Decade and Year. The Iran issue, the fires in Australia – so much challenge! This is not the time to dither or question if you have the skills, enough training, what will people think or any of that. This is the time to get super clear with yourself embrace all your gifts both dark and light and LEAP into sharing them. There is a part of you that knows, your essence, your light, your soul; it knows why you are here and the gifts that make you who you are.

Leap into yourself.

If not now, when?

If not you, who?

As we enter into this New Decade with the calls inviting us to play a bigger game, I knew there was a deck that I was meant to take home. So I looked online, I talked to people and – nope, nadda resonated. Thus, the other week in the torrential rain (when most people would stay home, especially those who are coughing and sneezing everywhere), I found myself in Fantan Alley. Tucked down this virtually shoulder width brick alley is a little store that called me. I walked in and asked what cards they carried. I looked at them all and again – nope, nadda. As I started to walk away a deck dropped at my feet. I normally spend huge time exploring a deck before I am willing to bring it home, this time was a heck yes immediately.

As I went to pay for my deck, the woman looked a tad puzzled and advised me the deck had only come in that morning and there was only this one copy. Purrrrrrrfffffeeeccctttt! Gotta love how Spirit works. Then when I brought them home and opened them up to cleanse, bless and consecrate them I laughed so hard. A wolf! The back of the cards was a wolf and my gorgeous sister Fi loved wolves. In fact for one of her birthdays she went to a wolf sanctuary and learned all about them. And could howl like a glorious wolf with ease.

A wolf and a star. Perfect!

Thus, please let me introduce you to the glorious guides of “The White Light Oracle”:- Let us guide you into the luminous realm of the sacred. The scared is your heart treasure. It is that which brings light into your life. The sacred is precious to you. It matters enough that you are willing to devote yourself to it – even when that requires courage, sacrifice and growth. The sacred generates inner warmth. It brings you joy. The sacred is a healing mirror that shows you the truth of your experience, which can include a compassionate reflection of your own suffering. It shows you how to heal. It inspires and protects you. What is sacred for your heart is unique to you. Yet, for every heart, the sacred is an experience of sublime love and deep meaning. The sacred helps us remember who we are and shows us how to manifest our inner purpose.

The most positively perfect deck for this reading I would say, wouldn’t you? The crystals that wiggled and jiggled are:- Blue Apatite, Angel Wings and K2 Jasper.

Okay, please gorgeous one gift yourself a moment, give yourself permission to just BE here and now. Breathing slow and deep. And as you sigh the old air out invite into your minds eye the image of a Ball of White Light. This light bathes you in it’s cleansing, nurturing beauty and asks you to breathe into the space that asks the question – “If not now, when?” Breathe that in; and let it float with you as you pick the card or cards that call to you.

Are you ready to pick the card for this New Year? Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

SOLVE POLLUTI OF 741Hz

Tune into your heart, and you will be able to find your way through any negative or toxic situation. Engage in self-healing and space clearing. Commit to regular practices that help you connect to your inner light. Your light shall not be overcome by any darkness or negativity. Take time to clean your heart and mind of negativity by focusing on the divine beings that bring joy to your heart. It is appropriate for you to desire your own personal and sacred space and access it daily.

We live in an age of heightened environmental, emotional and spiritual pollution. During such a world age, it takes more work to experience clarity, purity and originality. The frequency of 741Hz cleans things up. Solve polluti is a Latin expression which means to clear pollutants and toxins. This frequency focuses on clearing, freeing the hold of negativity and allowing the natural way – of bright, beautiful manifestation – to unfold.

It also attunes one to the harmonics of the quantum field, the reorganising principle of the higher self which knows what you are and how to dislodge and disengage from that which is inauthentic and obstructive radiant being. You are being called to clear yourself and your space in ways that feel affirming, inspiring and beautiful to you. Trust that no matter how much gunk the ego-driven actions of humans might generate, it is no match for the power of Spirit at play in willing human hearts.

May all such hearts join with Spirit and with each other to clear and bless all creatures for the greatest good.

TANTRA OF 639Hz

Be open to that which seems unfamiliar or different. You will experience a breakthrough as you embrace an unusual approach. You are on a soul path of accelerated spiritual growth, which is swifter but not always easier. You do not have to contrive your own happiness, but you can deip into the bliss within your body to lighten your mental state and remind yourself everything is working out beautifully.

Tantra is the conscious, creative intermingling of the sacred musculine and sacred feminine energies that dwell within every human heart. When one chooses to honour the interplay of these sacred energies, we become able to engage with the mysteries of our life and respond creatively. Tantra is the refusal to turn away from your life experiences – even the painful ones – because you recognise that, with wisdom, spiritual growth can emerge from all things.

The frequency of 639Hz evokes unity. It moves beneath conflict and grounds us in simplicity, connection and love. This frequency re-establishes our connection to the spiritual realms of love, light and sacred, healing beauty. It is the sublime frequency of ecstatic serenity. These beautiful energies can enter our field and create a moveable spiritual feast which will nourish, support, protect and shelter us, no matter the environment we may be moving through.

Allow connection. Do not zone out and turn away from what is happening, even when it is painful. Be gentle with yourself, but be persistent on your path. Be receptive and yet also determined and dynamic. The highest divine outcome is already being woven through your soul and into your experience.

YESHE TSOGYAL 333

You shall overcome all obstacles. Success is imminent, to stay connected to your path no matter what and continue to apply yourself. Allow your spiritual path to support you in all areas of your life. Live by your spiritual beliefs. Seek out the support of your spiritual brothers and sisters for help when needed, but also trust that you are intimately and directly connected to the powerful divine light within. There can be a dramatic healing breakthrough when you rely upon your spiritual connection.

Spiritual teachings from Bhutan hold that the great Indian master Padmasambhava was called to Bhutan from Tibet to subdue demons that were causing difficulties for the people of the Paro Valley. He flew from Tibet to Bhutan on the back of a supernatural tigress. The supernatural tigress is Yeshe Tsogyal, a yogini guardian for humanity and an emanation of the compassionate goddess of peace, prosperity and long life known as White Tara.

Yeshe Tsogyal’s power is that of the tiger siddha or medicine of spirit tiger. She calls for a boldness of spirit and willingness to engage your challenges which will create the path to inevitable success. She represents our ability to generate the spiritual power necessary to accomplish what needs to manifest for the greatest good.

She augurs empowerment and healing by assuming a confident attitude and taking steps forward. She lets you know that a negative time is drawing to a close and encourages commitment to the task of overcoming negativities through spiritual practices suited to you. You have the precious gift of such a path.

The repeated three symbolises that all manner of assistance and support will be granted to ensure your attainment. This will include the gifts of appropriate teachings and teachers, friends, healers, synchronicity, circumstances and opportunity. Trust the Universe and go for what you want with boldness and courage.

Truly, you are a lightworker. Embrace it and live it!

Ahhhhh, Woosah! I don’t know about you, but I feel this is the perfect way to start the New Year. Thus, delicious lovely I wish for you to find your touchstone, your word and allow that to be a beacon to you this year as we move forward. I wish for you grace, ease and flow and white light. I wish for you to SHINE! Big hugs and squeezes and see you next week!

What does it mean to be a person of AWE?

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Miraculous, Magnificent, Magnanimous, Matchless, Mellow, Meditative, Merry Monday delicious lovely! Holy Hannah Honey it’s the first Monday of December! Whoot! For all of you who celebrated American Thanksgiving – how was it? Did you remember to bless those around you and most importantly yourself? Tell me you didn’t get lost in the shopping aspect (which I still don’t quite understand).

Huge thanks to all of you who shared your glorious Moon Bowls, rocks and intentions with me for this month. They were all stupendously unique and perfect! Remember this is a delicious ritual where you take an idea, turn it into intention, put attention to it and give it some action. Makes it real and manifest.

I love December for a myriad of reasons, but the biggest one for me is the Winter Solstice. This is where the longest night happens and then we slowly shift to longer days, the energy builds, there is a budding – whoosah! It’s also my youngest monsters birthday and we have never been allowed to put up a tree, decorate for Xmas or anything until his birthday and Solstice happened!

I lead an amazing group called Soul Matters and every month we work with a theme through various exercises for the month, and then gather together and practise deep listening and deep sharing as we all unpack how the experience was for us. This month the theme is AWE. What does it mean to be a person of AWE? Think about that for a moment.

I don’t know about you, but when I witness a stunning sunrise or sunset, I feel AWE. When I stand out under a clear night sky and see the beauty of all the stars, I feel AWE. But what is AWE? Our expression “awe” is rooted in the Greek word áchos which also gives us the word ache. That vastness we experience in awe opens an ache in the heart, and by doing so, expands it. Dacher Keltner says “Awe is the feeling of being in the presence of something vast that transcends your understanding of the world.”

So what does AWE mean to you and when do you feel it?

More often than not we feel it when we see something outside of ourselves, but here’s a little invitation, what if you looked at yourself with awe. Awe is often reserved for majestic objects outside us. But, as poet Joy Harjo reminds us, the most breathtaking and life-transforming experiences come from remembering that there isn’t really a separation between that which is “out there” and us. We are connected to the awesome world around us. Those relationships make up our “larger self.” And noticing that larger self is one of the most humbling and awe-filled experiences we can have. If you’ve never read her poem you can find it here:-https://poets.org/poem/remember-0.

Another way to play with AWE for yourself is to gift yourself with an hour of stillness (this is often the toughest and most challenging thing for people to do). Often the easiest way to encounter awe is just to sit still. And December offers so many perfect moments to sit back and soak in awe. Put on a jacket and sit on your stoop and watch the snowfall for an hour. Go to the park and sit on a bench watching the neighborhood kids sled down the giant hill, like you used to decades ago. Take an hour to look up at the stars while your favorite classical album plays in your earphones. Take a seat in the corner of the family holiday gathering and just watch the joy and love ping pong back and forth.

The aim is to sit back and still long enough to watch some piece of life unfold before you. In its unfolding, awe inevitably shows its face.

Play with it and see what happens, see how many moments and occasions of AWE you can tap into this month, it’s a game changer!

Okay, let’s crack on with the reading. The cards that wiggled and woggled to guide and support you this week are the delicious Faery Forest Oracle. Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them:- “Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle. The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people. May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.”

What deliciously perfect guides for playing with AWE.

The crystals that jiggled – Rhodonite – a glorious crystal known as the ‘Rescue Stone’ it’s an amazing heart chakra stone that promotes forgiveness and compassion for love to flourish. Pyrite – a glorious stone for the 3rd chakra. It helps enhance will power, overcome fear and anxiety. Last but not least, K-2 Jasper – can increase and elevate any of the bodies energy centres, and it stimulates psychic awareness of one’s entire body and its level of well being.

Okay, you ready? Take some glorious slow breaths in through your nose and then sigh them out through your open mouth. Breathe like this for a few moments, allowing yourself to sink back into your body and leave the dross of the frenetic behind. As you breathe, invite the sensation of AWE to come dance in your mind and tickle your tissues. Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a little peek?

THE WYZARD

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

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

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

THE YULE SINGER

There are times in life when our light dims so that it seems it may go out for all eternity. But when this time comes, you are being put to a great test. If you persevere at this time, you will experience a depth of life experience that will lead to you being reshaped, transformed,and, in many ways, changed. You are undergoing such an experience at present, and this card is here to share with you that at such a time of great darkness and suffering, a new light will shine and bring you back to life, a kind of reincarnation within the same life you are now experiencing.

When this takes place, the Yule Singer will come to you and sing to you the song of your deepest self. You will open up with this song and begin to live again – the pain will dissolve slowly, and surely you will enter into a time of joy and light, while the flame of your spirit rises high once again within your soul.

Expect new friendships,easy connections, fortunate moments, and growth when this beautiful being comes to you. The dark times are done with for now. You are stronger, brighter, and beginning once again a bright new cycle. Sing your song!

THE SIGIL KEEPER

When the Sigil Keeper comes to you, there will be no words. Instead, there will be shapes and signs and messages a-flowing, as tough a language of symbols is being shared with you. When she comes, you are being encouraged to participate in this process by creating and shaping your own magickal symbols and beginning to consciously choose the symbolic language that you are creating and connecting with every single day.

You may wish to find a symbol at this time that represents you and the part of the journey you are exploring at present. You may wish to look around your home and see what “hidden” symbols have worked their way into your life, and you may wish to rearrange these, remove some, replace others with symbols that are consciously chosen to be of greatest magickal support to you at this time.

Look at your clothing, what you wear, and see the symbolic nature of this, and go through your jewellery and consider carefully the energy of its symbols and whether you wish to connect with this

Sigil work is simple but ever so powerful, and this amazing being is a reminder to work with intelligence, and to exercise your choice at all times. You must choose carefully now what symbols you keep about you – for they have shaped you more than you have ever truly considered.

There we go delicious lovely. I wish for you a fantabulous week filled with AWE as Jason Silva puts it – Awe makes things new again. And that makes it the best drug in the world. Play with the exercises, allow yourself to have your breath taken away by the world that you are an integral part of. Allow yourself to take your own breath away as you are quite Awe-inspiring. Big hugs and squeezes, warm soxs and steaming cups of tea. Oh yes, and remember to play!

Thanksgiving, New moon in Sagittarius, Ritual and a Blessing!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Magnificent, Merry, Mad Monday delicious lovely! Mercury Retrograde is done, whoot! (I am seriously doing a happy dance as this time round it really handed my arse to me and brought up lots of sticky things for me to work through!) Huzzah!

Okay, we have lots to talk about this week and a new ritual to learn, so make a cuppa come snuggle up and let’s natter!

To all my amazing American friends, Thanksgiving is coming up this week and I hope you take time to just BE, Play, be Thankful and Feel. For some people family holiday celebrations can trigger all sorts of stuff, some great and some rather challenging. So do remember to breathe, set the intention (we talk about that in the ritual section) of enjoying yourself even if Uncle Tom is being a twat! Okay, I do have to ask what’s with the Black Friday Sale thing? I appreciate a good deal, but I once went to a Nordstrom on Black Friday and it was insane! People were pushing, shoving, being rude all for $100 off of an item they wanted. In fact I had a little old lady elbow me in the ribs as she shoved past me as she obviously thought I was going for the perfume or whatever it was that she wanted! Totally terrified me and have never gone to a Black Friday sale in person again. With that being said I do wish you all a marvelous Thanksgiving filled with family, gorgeous food, connection, joy and big laughter and remember Gratitude!

We have a glorious New Moon on Tuesday and I will say I love New Moon time as it allows us to plant the seeds of intention, desire and focus. Also, remember the New Moon sets the energy for the month, yes? This New Moon is in Sagittarius and brings opportunities to start over, to reach further, and to rework areas of our lives that have grown stale or become unwelcome.

As Forever Conscious shares: “Since the powerful and heavy October 27th New Moon last month, we have all been working hard to release and work through our fears. With Mercury in retrograde, things from our past may have also paid us a visit or we may have had to confront something that challenged and pushed us. Since this time, we have all been guided to reach deep and to rise into a new strength and a new power.

Take a moment to identify what this has been for you. Take a moment to honor your lunar journey and think about all you have achieved and all you have accomplished. Whatever has come you have made it through, whatever has been is now in the past, and as we welcome the dark Sagittarius Moon, it is time for us to turn our attention to the next chapter.

The sign of Sagittarius is ruled by the Centaur aiming its arrow into the sky. The Centaur is half-horse, half-man and is a natural healer. It holds a wisdom that it has inherited across many lifetimes and across many realms of the galaxy. This wisdom allows it to aim its arrow in the direction that always supports its highest growth.

Under the Sagittarius New Moon, we can all tap into this energy with ease. We can all tap into the intuitive wisdom that lives within and know the right way to direct our arrow. The Sagittarius New Moon is also abundant and has the power to bring new opportunities or new information to the surface… if we pause, and tune into our own innate wisdom, we will always know which direction to aim our arrow.

While we may not have any control over where exactly our arrow will land, we do get to choose the direction we wish to send it in, and that choice is a power that we will all get to exercise as we begin this New Moon cycle. There are no wrong choices in this life, only lessons and only growth. And, just like the Moon, we too get the chance to begin again, to rise again, and to be reborn again.

There is a healing quality to this November New Moon that will also be our guide. This healing quality asks that we accept ourselves, love ourselves, but more importantly, forgive ourselves. We must forgive ourselves for all we have done or not done. We must forgive ourselves for our perceived failures, forgive ourselves for our thoughts, our feelings, and our actions. You are worthy of this forgiveness and giving it to yourself, especially under this New Moon, can free you for the new opportunities that will follow.

It is never too late to change directions; it is never too late to try again. It is never too late to do things differently and to see where it may take you.

Enjoy the November New Moon for all that it offers and all that it brings, for it is actually the last New Moon of the year. So this is the perfect time to make your New Moon wishes, or I invite you to work with a different, more visual process for this lunar month. Have you ever worked with a Moon Bowl? I have been doing this practice or ritual for the last few months and I love it. To find out what you need to do come explore the Moon Bowl with me.

The other week a few people talked to me about Ritual and what I found interesting was their thought that it was highly complex, time consuming and that you needed multiple “special” tools for it. Hmmmm, I don’t agree with that. Sure you can make it that way if you would like, and there are certainly times that you really want to make it super duper special, but for the day to day it doesn’t have to be that way. So let me share with you how I view and interpret the word “Ritual” and what it means to me.

To me a ritual is intention made manifest, it’s that place of connection with the Divine, Universe, God/Goddess or however you chose to name it. In other words, a ritual takes an idea, thought or emotion and gives it a physical form in the world. So for example when I invite or suggest that perhaps at certain times there are things that you might want to write down, release and burn – guess what? That’s a ritual. When you offer a Blessing or a Prayer before eating a meal – that’s a ritual. When you sit down at New Moon and write your wishes/intentions out, guess what? That’s a ritual. All it took was a brief moment of time, paper, pen and something to light a candle or the paper with. When you gather stones for your Moon Bowl. That’s a ritual.

To me ritual allows your body, your cells, you essence to understand your intention. Does that make sense? So what makes a mundane activity into a ritual is your consciousness while doing it. If you are smudging yourself or home, what is your intention? If you are having a salt water scrub shower or bath, what is your intention? When you light a candle every day when you walk in the door, what is your intention? Remember energy follows intention and attention follows energy and actions follow attention. Thus, a ritual can be a celebration such as the upcoming Thanksgiving in the States or it can be a practice which can be repeated daily, monthly or yearly. When ritual becomes a practice this allows us to go deeper, to explore all the various nuances and of course as we all know – repetition leads to mastery (think of that daily meditation, exercise, journaling etc). I guess I am saying is ritual is easy. Set the intention, let the energy follow it, then the attention, but the key piece is action!

Try it this Thanksgiving (if you are in the States). When you are sitting down to dinner offer up a Blessing, a Prayer, some words. I found a lovely one from Danielle LaPorte that you might like. It’s called Light and Resilience – a holiday or anytime prayer.

Okay, enough chuntering on. When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide, support and teach this week I grinned like a maniac! This is the second showing of the gorgeous Blessed Be cards. How positively perfect! Now if these cards are new to you (which they probably are), please let me introduce them (as it’s rather rude not to!) “May these cards and guides offer you ways to enter into deeper appreciation of your life and its manifold blessings. May you have hope, understanding and kindness. And most of all, may you know deep within your soul, that thou art blessed.”

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come and empower you are Amethyst – is a wonderful crystal of protection, prosperity and for helping you manage your emotions so that you can take right action. Morganite – cleanses the emotional body of stress and anxiety, old wounds and hidden traumas, and enkindles lightness within the spirit, as if a burden has been lifted and released. Snowflake Black Obsidian – helps to draw emotions to the surface and to examine harmful thought patterns. A good choice for past life work, heals old karmic patterns and helps in examining harmful thought patterns. Some delicious red carnations wanted to add a shock of colour! So there we are!

I do have a super easy and fun little visualisation for you if you want. This will really help you tap into the energy of gratitude, thankfulness and ritual. If that doesn’t resonate for you then just gift yourself with a few moments to breathe long and deep. In through your nose and out through your mouth.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

A BLESSING FOR SOLACE AND HOPE

This is a blessing for solace, the comfort that comes in the form of good fortune, strange little moments that bring you back to the sense that the Universe is a place where you are cared for, considered and important, and that this solace bring you hope for the future, and anticipation of the fair things that life will continue to bring you.

Solace is the balm and the antidote to the wounds that life can deliver. It is not personal, for being here is a great gift, and we live in times where, in many ways, we are safer than we have ever been before. But we are fed a diet of hopelessness from our cultures and media sources, until we become overwhelmed with the troubles that seem to surround us. This blessing is for you to find your way back to sweetness. For the flower in bud to release its sweetness, for you to notice the shimmer of light upon water, the sheer pleasure of movement, the ease of a mind no longer racing over problems to be solved, but soft, intelligent, allowing the calm of life to steal back in to your soul.

This is the solace that keeps our hopes alive, the gift of good fortune that reawakens the candle of optimism that is within us, and the delight in the sheer whimsy of being here, and being alive. It is the understanding that there may be little control, but we are no mere pawns in this life – we have our place in the world, and simply with our breathing in and out, we matter, and we are doing enough.

To find solace is to find peaceful moments, small connections, to notice the thousand gifts life has conferred upon us, and it is to again invoke the divinity of existence, without the fear of the future. Let hope give you lightness, draw away the pain, and open you up again to the possibilities, until you begin once again to relish the simple voluptuous truth of being alive.

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING ON YOUR INTUITION

A blessing to create a trusting relationship with your own inner guidance.

In this world, many will seek to guide you. They will hold a torch aloft and show you a road that they promise you has a destination that is heavenly, or healing, or a home for the spirit in which you be loved, in which you will finally belong. May this blessing light the torch of your own inner guide, who alone knows the truth of your soul.

May you begin to sense out what is best for you – without pride, or vain public deliberating, may you just simply connect with a light within, and from that light shine out and with that light – the glowing radiance of your own intuition, the guide of your own spirit – may the road you take be softly illuminated. May you trust when it takes place, but not force it on another. May your own intuition grow in its light, until it glows bright when needed, and softens when you feel ready to walk steadily into the direction of your own soul. May you trust that you are becoming who you were born to be, and never whom another would make you. May this intuition not be shaken by mistakes, or misinterpretations, but may you open up the senses you were so gifted with by the Spirit that guides us all, and may your own inner wisdom that will be expressed through that innate gift of intuition be given room to blossom.

May you be taught well, but not attach to teachers of the intuitive gifts. May you be guided, but never against your own intuitive will. And may you come to understand that the price of walking this way of truth to the self may sometimes be high, but never as high as the giving up of will and spirit and guidance to others. Let yourself be open to the messages from within, first, and then, allow the world to speak to you, through the filter of your most pure intuitive gift.

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING FOR GOOD MEN AND FATHERS

A blessing for the men, the good men, who do the essential work for themselves, for each other, for their families, for their communities.

We need good men, loving fathers, fully flowered in their masculinity. May you be blessed with the healing of any wounds you hold and hide within. May you allow yourself to be vulnerable and tender in the care of the young. May you be blessed with the strength of your own untainted power, and open up to the great abilities that lie within you, beneath the muscle and sinew and grit and stoic face you show the world.

May you be blessed, and be open-hearted in love, intelligent in your alliances, honourable in your agreements, and courageous when you must stand and resist the challenges that may come to you. May you receive the blessings of opening yourself to your own immense internal beauties, refusing to identify only with the shadow, which swallows so many good men.

Instead, when you meet the darkness within, let it be understood, acknowledged and honoured, healed and transformed, and thus may you turn away from stereotypes and become your true self. May all men be blessed as they do this sacred work. To every man, may you be a brother, and with every honourable act of care and compassion and protection and nurture, may you be most blessed. For you are precious to us all, and you father us all. It is not through the bonds of biology, but through the strands of connection, for all men are our brothers. May you show the next men how to father themselves, and thus continue the evolution of our humanity.

To the good men and the good fathers, for showing the many possibilities of how a man can be good, in a very deep, real way, offering us all a well of wisdom from which to drink, a fire of protection and love by which to warm oneself, and the endless love of the sea in which we are reborn, may your gifts to the world return to you threefold.

BLESSED BE

Well delicious lovely, wishing you a fantabulous week. Play with Ritual, play with the energy of the New Moon (so gorgeous) and no matter if you are in the States or somewhere else give thanks and bless everything that is in your life. In my morning practice I always say “ I bless everything I have and I bless my increasing good and good fortune” and then I start listing them. So I might say “I bless my bed and the cosiness of it and I bless my increasing good and good fortune, I bless the sun filtering through the autumn leaves and I bless my increasing good and good fortune.” Yes? Give it a try and really think of everyone and everything that could do with a blessing. Sending you big hugs and squeezes and butterfly kisses! See you next week.

November is Whizzing By! And the tug to go inward.

Jenny Heston · 8:00 am ·

Hello delicious lovely, happy Magnificent, Marvelous, Magical, Mighty, Manifesting, Majestic, Mindful, Mesmerising Monday! (Have to love the letter M lol). Did you know that in Egyptian writing, its ideogram is derived from the character for water, which explains why it’s so gracefully written. In terms of Roman numerals, it represents the number 1000? I really quite like the idea of the Egyptian ideogram and the letter “M”.

November seems to be whizzing by and I don’t know about you, but for me this last week has been an interesting weave of ups and downs what with this delicious Mercury Retrograde (which ends soon!), Remembrance Day and birthday’s galore! The weather has emulated my state of being as the sun will be shining one minute and then torrential rain the next, but as I wipe the rain off that’s pouring down my face I always remember to look up and see if there is a rainbow. And there have been!

I have been working with a great book called “Writing Your Soul Down” and it totally feeds in to how my body is responding to the change in Seasons. When sunset happens at 4:30pm it’s like an internal reminder to light the hearth candle, light the fire and then curl up with the doggos and write from my heart, write from my soul. Which has made for some very interesting conversations on paper! This can also be exceptionally challenging as the Season is calling us to take the time to go inwards, to hibernate, to tend our roots and be more introspective and reflective. Yet on a societal level we are heading into the season of parties, sparkly lights and being more extroverted. So how do you find your balance? For me I have made certain practices non-negotiable and they are literally scheduled into my phone in case I get distracted or practice procrastination. Remember, the Shamanic energy this month is of Proactive Change and the things that get in the way of that are procrastination and apathy. So what are you procrastinating on that would really nourish you.

With that thought burbling in your mind let’s go see who wants to guide you this week.

The cards that wiggled and giggled to come support this week are The Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh with Mercury Retrograde in play! Now, if you have never worked with this deck before let me give you a brief introduction – “This deck is for those who find it hard to follow rules, conform, bend to authority and generally ‘do what they are told.’ May your rebel heart always be bold. May your spirit always be free. My you remember to live the Divine Circus and have fun doing things the way you aren’t supposed to, whilst living your most creative and unique divine destiny.” The crystals that came to play are the ones from the beach, the gorgeous rocks that I pick up every morning and bring home to their beautiful bowl. And of course some delightful rose petals and Selenite to amplify.

Thus, I invite you to take a pause and a moment for yourself. Just BE and as you breathe in a lovely deep breath resonant with what would nourish your soul and as you breathe out through your open mouth release the procrastination and apathy. Breathe like that for a few lovely, luscious breaths and when you are ready, ask for the guidance that you need this week and then pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a little look see, shall we?

CROWN OF THE BUTTERFLY BAMBINI

Just as nature imbues the butterfly with an innate ability for radical transformation, so too do you have natural instincts within, guiding you to grow in dramatic, utterly life-changing ways. Progress is your perfection. Growth is your attainment. Do you shun what you have been or mistakes you have made? Or instead, do you wear your ability for transformation as a sacred crown of power?

Transformation is an ability, an art, a sacred power. It requires an ability to go through the death of an old self, to be reborn again. That death might be an identity, a lifestyle or career, or an inner sense of self that no longer seems enough to truly reflect who you are becoming.

It requires both strength and flexibility, to be like bamboo, to bend without breaking. Are you willing to let go of what you have known, who you have been, without judging it, except to understand that you are outgrowing your past and becoming your future in this very moment? This takes great courage whilst flexibility of mind allows you to believe there are other possibilities in this life beyond what you have already experienced. The strength gives you enough courage to bear the loss of the known and the terror of the unknown, perhaps even turning that terror into excitement for what may be.

Don’t dream small dreams, for you are capable of far more dramatic and colourful creations. Trust in the magnificence of what you are becoming, the expression of the transformational intelligence and power within you.

DATE WITH DESTINY

Out of the ethers 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!

DIVINE DISGUISE

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

Blessings are the mysterious workings of the universe, there to help us along our unique life path to live our truths and fulfil our potential. The universe has the knack of knowing just what it is we need, even when sometimes we might think we need something altogether different. This is how it can be that something we resist and reject in our lives can become the very thing we’re most grateful for later on. We realise it had been a blessing masked, something actually helping us, even though it might have come in the form of a challenge or a struggle before we eventually gain great benefit from it.

The real beauty of a situation isn’t obvious to you yet. But trust and have peace of mind and a realisation that the universe does really know what it’s doing. It’s in your corner, on your side, cheering you on and helping you avoid unnecessary pitfalls, even if you don’t know they exist. There is no need to worry, even that which appears to be most troublesome is going to reveal itself to be working in your favour!

Well delicious lovely, wishing you a stupendous week and I have an invitation for you. Think of the things that nourish you, whether it is playing music, lighting a candle, going for a walk under the trees and do them. In other words gift yourself with non-negotiable time that will nourish you at your core, your roots! Sending you big hugs and squeezes and sloppy wet kisses! See you next week and most importantly be grateful for yourself and bless YOU!

Divine Feminine meets Divine Masculine! – Full Moon in Sagittarius, Summer Solstice (Litha) and an Offering you’ve been asking for!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Miraculous, Magnetic, Manifesting, MOON Monday!!! We have an amazing week happening with a glorious Full Moon in Sagittarius TODAY and then Summer Solstice on Friday so we get to dance with the Divine Feminine (the Moon) this week and the Divine Masculine in all his glory (Solstice) and then very shortly afterwards we have the beginning of another eclipse season – muhahaha. I keep wanting to burst into either “Fly Me to the Moon, and let me play amongst the stars….” or “Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun please shine down on me…..” What can I say? My Dad loved Frank Sinatra and I have a plethora of kids lol. We have lots to explore for this week, so let’s get a wiggle on.

Quite a few of you have messaged or emailed asking if there is going to be a Summer Solstice Reading Special. Heck yes! It starts today and goes for exactly 10 days (in other words until the 27th of June). You can find out about it HERE.

Okay let’s talk about this glorious Full Moon in Sagittarius that occurs today! Whoot! This is the moon to remind you that Dreams Can Come True. This is the last moon phase of the current eclipse cycle (remember we started it with the January 5th solar eclipse)? Thus, it’s important to look back to the previous eclipses that started this phase . There are only two weeks left to complete what you started about five months ago. It’s time to finalise matters so you will be ready to start a new phase of life in two weeks. So, this glorious Full Moon (aka the Strawberry Moon) is both fiery and dreamy. On one hand, it is going to be reminding us of the fire within so we can find our confidence to be true to ourselves. On the other, it is also going to be helping us raise our level of consciousness, and explore our intuition and dreams with greater ease.

Why are Full Moon’s important to pay attention to? Well, when the moon is full and at her peak, your emotional and instinctual energy is massively increased. Think about it, if the Moon can alter the tides and the human body is about 70% water – tell me it has no effect! Dare ya!

Thus, I invite you to take some time, do some reflection, releasing, smudging or whatever you feel inclined to do. Reflect back on the last 5 months – what are you still holding onto that should be released? What did you desire, but let fall by the wayside? Play with it. I always think Full Moon ritual is important and taking some time for yourself, whether it be a simple – just getting outside, gazing up and giving a blessing. Putting your crystals and jewelry out for the night (as they absorb energy), to a Full Moon release. With this Full Moon it’s even more important to take a moment as Summer Solstice (Litha) is on Friday and the energy really ramps up!

So let’s talk about Summer Solstice. Ahhhh, Summer Solstice (aka as Litha). (Have I said I love Summer Solstice yet?) Think about it, this is the longest day of the year, the light is so present, inviting us to flourish, blossom and show the heck up, to get outside and celebrate before things start gently closing in. 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.

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).

For those of you that are part of my wonderful email community there is a glorious Solstice piece coming to you on Wednesday, with a glorious guided visualisation, history of Solstice, celebratory ritual ideas (remember ritual is taking intention and turning it into physical form) and a fun spell for my most magickal and witchy ones. If you aren’t signed up, you can do it on the main page (please don’t email me to do it for you……)

So with that plethora of information to perk (should you have made it this far), let’s crack on with the reading, yes?

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide this week I smiled like a Cheshire Cat when The Earth Warrior Oracle were most adamant they were to be front and centre. What perfect guides for a Full Moon and Summer Solstice! Now if these glorious guides are new to you, in the name of politeness let me introduce them to you.

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

Repeat the last 3 lines to yourself. Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. Yes?

The glorious crystals that came to play are Citrine – is associated with wealth and abundance, which is why it is often called “The Merchant Stone” or “The Success Stone.” It also is linked with boosting joy and optimism, which gives you the motivation you need to accomplish your goals. Black Moonstone -for “feeling”, and understanding via intuition and emotional “thoughts”, rather than via intellectual reasoning. Moonstone – The Goddess, mystery, self discovery and intuition. Some of the glorious flowers from my garden came to play, including Love in the Mist (so love this one).

Ready to go play with the Moon, the Sun and the Earth? Let’s go!

Woosah! Take a big exhale out through your mouth, let that old energy just flow out of your body. Then a glorious slow inhale through your nose, long and deep – let it fill all the cracks and crevices within you with cooling, soothing moonlight. Then exhale with a sigh. Keep breathing this way as you invite into your minds eye the sense of release and the sense of flourish. What do you need to release to flourish? Let this whisper into the cracks and crevices in your being and when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tickle at the edges of your mind.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see, shall we?

LIN A

You have beautiful dreams and inspired, bold ambitions. You are guided to believe that they are a natural expression of your soul, something that is meant to be. Life will support you in the expression of those dreams and ambitions, even in the moments where it seems to be struggle, rather than support, that you are experiencing. The process for transformation into full maturity involves learning how to grow through light and through darkness back to the light again. You will always find your way back to the light. Have faith in yourself and what must be. Dedicate yourself to what you love without hesitation.

If you are experiencing loss or change, have faith. Sometimes things happen that seem to be working against us. It is only later that they show themselves to have been valuable ways by which we acquired the greater faith, courage and determination that were necessary to the fulfillment of our purpose. Know that your destiny is unfolding, and you are moving through circumstances that are ultimately going to help you become your soul in fullness and splendour. Keep going. Everything happening in your life is helping you to fulfill your divine potential. Know that any darkness will give way to the light.

To give up old ways or old identities can seem frightening to the mind. Yet it is inspiring and exciting for the soul that yearns to blossom into fullness and cannot thrive when it is held back in fear. To have faith in your own purpose when it may sometimes feel like you are fighting a losing battle takes a lot of heart. Great Spirit knows what you are up to, and it wants to remind you that you are not being foolish – you are following your destiny.

Let your trust in life’s good will and generous support of you be unconditional. Know you shall thrive!!!

KUNTUR YACHAK

Condor swiftly brings the will of Great Spirit to earth, through the gift of powerful medicine. Despite great odds, even in the face of what may appear to be an inevitable defeat, extraordinary triumph is at hand. This is the prophecy of resurrection, of the rising up of what was thought to be lost. It shall happen with unexpected and surprising swiftness. Your divine destiny is not held in the guiding hand of a great spiritual master.

Condors are born with their eyes open, but do not have vocal chords to speak. You have always seen clearly – trust in this, even if you struggle to find the words to express all that you see. Condors reveal emotion through changes in their skin colour. This is a reminder to trust what your body is telling you. Your bodily intuition is a form of wisdom. You have a spiritual connection to the Christ Consciousness, the universal Sacred Heart seeking to awaken itself in humanity. Your divine life purpose involves assuming the role or leader, guide, healer or Earth Warrior for love on this planet in your own unique way. An inviolable spiritual protection surrounds you.

You are being offered absolute protection that is strong enough to sustain your purity, integrity and effectiveness as you navigate the challenges inherent in the earthly world of Puma, known as Kay Pacha, and much needed protection over the unconscious world of Snake, known as Uhka Pacha. This protection ensures that your passionate purpose is not distorted or derailed by unconscious forces. As you accept this blessing, you shall know only protection, empowerment and grace as you manifest the spirit medicine of Condor, helping to bring hope, conscious and creative collaboration, dynamic sacred activism and miraculous restoration.

CLAN OF THE WOLF HEART

You belong to the Clan of the Wolf Heart. This is a soul tribe, with boundaries beyond bloodlines and geography. It is based on soul connection to love’s wisdom and higher truths of Great Spirit. The Clan is united through Wolf medicine and the heart. These are the qualities of the Divine Feminine that unify, allowing for a palpable experience of oneness that brings power to our collective wisdom and purpose.

Reach out for help from others, whilst you honour and respect your individuality and your own unique life journey. Balance social time with taking care of your own individual needs, including the need for time out in solitude to hear your inner truths and renew yourself. Anger can be a sign from the soul, a sacred gift that asks you to deal with a situation, to bring about something different and more empowering. Use your anger as a sacred gift with compassion and clear purpose. Fight wholeheartedly when you need to safeguard what truly matters. Be open to a greater guiding wisdom so that you know when to be merciful and when to cut something off completely. Believe in the power of your inner voice, and do not silence yourself.

The howl of the wolf is primal and powerful. It is used to locate clan members or to define the boundaries of their territory to volves from outside of the pack. The howling wolf is medicine for standing your ground and defending that which is rightfully within your guardianship. If this strikes a note within you now, be aware that using your voice and energy to set boundaries and claim your space is important. The territory is not physical. That is the way of the ego. The territory is spiritual.

Let us recognise ourselves as the empowered ones. May we realise our abilities, tap into the resources we have and use them fruitfully. May we have joyful courage and confidence in who we are and what we are here to do!

Wow! All these glorious guides came to impart messages of growth, embracing your gifts, flourishing, trusting (ahhhh such a tricky thing sometimes) and reminding – YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Seriously you can’t make this sh*t up! Perfect guides for this glorious week. So delicious lovely a couple of reminders, if you want to take advantage of the Summer Solstice Reading Special, it is on for 10 days. You can reserve one and use it up to two months later if you don’t want one right now, or you can purchase it as a gift for someone. Also, if you want to receive a fabulous Solstice package with music, guided visualisation, rituals and a spell, make sure you are signed up! Have a stupendous week! Breathe, smile a shed ton and dance under the Moon and get out under the Sun and play! Huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week.
