Memorial Day, Are You Willing? And the Strawberry Full Moon!

· ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Marvelous, Majestic Memorial Monday. 

(To all my US friends), and happy Spring Bank holiday to all my lovely UK friends!  

Wow, May seems to have just flown by!  It just seems a hot minute ago that we were talking about the energy of this month being TENSION and pffft, the month is almost done. 

Although,  I will say I am reveling in the warm weather, the garden growth and all the amazing smelly flowers that come out and dance for us in this time of late Spring.

This weekend we celebrated the mother-ship’s 95th birthday, with a feast, family, friends, frivolities and fun.   It was so interesting to see all the different personalities meld and the cool conversations that unfolded.  

During that event, I had a great conversation with one of my boys about the book “Unfuck Yourself” (he had just discovered it recently.) 

He brought up the key phrase that can really Unfuck you……… Ready?  

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

The phrase is “AM I WILLING?” 

Am I willing to do the work to make a change?  Am I willing to get off the sofa and go to the gym to lose weight?  Am I willing to release those relationships that drain me?

AM I FUCKING WILLING TO MAKE CHANGE?  

Then interestingly enough the author goes on to say, if you can’t come up with anything to put on your AM I WILLING list.  Turn it around and ask yourself the same question in a different way “WHAT AM I NOT WILLING TO DO OR PUT UP WITH?”

For example, I am not willing to put up with this abusive relationship.  I am not willing to continually struggle.  I am not willing to be continually dismissed.  I am not willing to feel unhealthy………..  

It’s quite fascinating to play with, write down and it most certainly unravels those threads that can make you feel like you are tied up in a knot.

Dare you to try it!

This Saturday (June 3rd) we welcome in the Strawberry Full Moon.  

This is the first Full Moon since our lovely Eclipse Season and the heralding of Summer and Summer Solstice.

The Strawberry Moon of June is named for the wild and ripe strawberries that reach their peak in June. It’s believed that picking strawberries beneath the light of the moon honors the crops and ensures a bountiful yield.

Strawberries are considered a food of love, representative of the goddess Freya, and they symbolize love and luck. June’s Strawberry Moon meaning embodies the magic and fullness of life.

This is the best moment to make difficult decisions or to face responsibilities you’ve been avoiding. Start fresh and dive deep into personal growth! Remember to pace yourself, don’t burn yourself out in your excitement and enthusiasm. Evaluate your goals and intentions to make sure they are realistic and achievable.

New life, sunlight, magic, joy, and strength are everywhere. The earth and the universe are surging with enthusiasm! Your intuition is at a peak! So keep an open mind to all of life’s adventures and twists.

A delicious thing to do under this Full Moon is to go sit outside beneath the moon, or someplace quiet where you will not be disturbed. Reflect on 3 things you are grateful for right now.

Feel free to say the following chant or repeat it in your mind:

Tonight I sit beneath this Strawberry Moon feeling grateful for (say the 3 things you chose above). I’m grateful for the Moon above and the Earth below me. As the season turns I wish strength, abundance, hope, and love for myself and those I care for.

Feel the white and glowing energy of the Strawberry Moon fill you up. Then just spend the next 5-10 minutes meditating quietly.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.  

We have glorious new guides this week!  They are your Gateway guides, they are your keys to unlocking a mystic portal into the inner knowing and ancient wisdom within you.  They can open a wondrous realm where you can explore your life and discover what destiny has in store for you.  

Are you ready? 

Take a deep breath honey, just drop into this moment and ask yourself what would it look like to be willing and to start fresh.  Allow that energy to fill your being and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

RISING ABOVE

Let go of the ordinary and step into the extraordinary.  You have potential that you haven’t even begun to tap into.  This is the time to reach higher than ever before, so do not fall down before doubt.  

Remember your true calling.  

Just as the lotus rises up out of the mud into the light, so you are rising up to even greater heights.  Sometimes this occurs naturally, and sometimes it’s an act of will.

This is the time to rise above any situation that’s not empowering.  Even if there are some people you might leave behind, let your light shine for all to see.  

Rise up and step into your potential! 

ACCEPTING WHAT IS

Accept your life in all its configurations.  Know that every moment, situation, and event has profound value….even if it doesn’t seem like it.  

Accept your inner majesty and be present.  

You are magnificent and wondrous beyond measure.  Embrace all those parts of yourself!

It is an act of both power and faith to love, honour, and accept what is.  At times it can be challenging to truly accept what’s occurring in your life.

When you do so, however, you affirm that there’s a plan for your life and that everything is working for your highest good.  

Accepting “what is” doesn’t mean that you can’t work to change it, because you can.  It does mean that there is gentle, yet profound, awareness that every experience can support your highest good and spiritual evolution.

If there is something you just can’t accept, start by gently acknowledging the fact that  you can’t accept it, don’t push it into the closet and hide it away.  

As you increase your own acceptance in life, this will help others be at peace in their own lives.

SAVOURING PLEASURE

Fill your life with people, experiences, and places that bring you delight and joy. 

Live deliciously!

Release the need to be practical in all situations.  Surround yourself with beauty and sumptuous pleasures.  

You’re not meant to solely work hard and be dutiful and diligent.  Life should be lived abundantly and fully.  Give yourself permission to be happy and experience profound gratification and gratitude.  

Embrace pleasure whenever you can.

Create personal environments that fill you with deep satisfaction.  Cherish your friendships.  Love often and deeply.  Allow your senses to be satisfied.

See, hear, taste, touch, and feel the beauty within and around you.

Drink well, eat well, and dance into the early morning hours.

Wow!  Perfect guides for this Strawberry Moon, as it’s all about embracing life, getting clear and reveling in who you are!  Wishing you a stupendous week of love, laughter and all sorts of possibilities.  Take some time under the Moon.  Big hugs and squeezes.  

Get Outside, Get Grounded and say Hello to the Taurus New Moon.

Happy Magickal, Musing, Merry, Manifesting, Magnetic May Monday!

How are you most delicious lovely?  How are you juggling the delightful energies of May?

So many of you, and various friends, have shared that it feels very much like you are in a blender and being spun and scrambled.  I loved my friend Lisa’s description – “It feels like someone has taken a chopstick to my brain and stirred it all up.”

I totally get it, what with being in the midst of an intense Eclipse Portal, with a side of Mercury retro – no shit! But the bonus news is Mercury went direct yesterday! Whoot!

But to top off the delicious energies, the weather is doing wonky things and the heat has cranked up here.

It’s Hawt, Hawt, Hawt.  

We have an unprecedented heat wave in effect which is meant to break records all over the place – blaugh!

Now, I don’t know about you but the heat makes me wilt, and rather crotchety and all in all, I’m not a supreme fan – Spring and Fall are my favourite seasons.  

Yes, I do like a warmish summer day, and a cute sundress (with pockets), but not when it is so hot that it’s impossible to hang out in the sun.  Grumble, grumble.

However, my garden loves it and things are popping up like mad, veggies, wildflowers, herbs, it makes me super happy.  

I had plans with the boys on Mother’s Day to go play mini golf in the afternoon, but when I saw the temperature it was a quick change of plans.

They very kindly agreed to get up at 6am so we could go beachcombing, driftwood gathering (for faery homes) and shell finding.  

It was divine.  

Grounding, calm, fun and relaxed and oh so quiet as most humans were still in bed (thanks guys for getting up so early).

I love exploring all the various landscapes that surround where I live.  The various beaches that are all different, the forests, the garry oak ecosystems, the meadows, the mountains.  You name it! 

I find it soul soothing and oh so wonderfully rejuvenating and nourishing.  

With an Aries Moon in my chart my favourite self care and nourishment is to be outdoors in Nature and have a fabulous picnic somewhere after a glorious exploration. 

 I’m not a “Hang out in a bubble bath and read a book” kinda gal.  

This week, on Friday the 19th we welcome the New Moon in Taurus and with that comes delicious grounding energy.

Take a moment and think about the image of Taurus.

It’s a great big bull/ox with a huge solid body mass and all four feet connected to the earth.  

Grounding at its finest, or maybe I should say – most solid!

“Take a deep breath. Inhale through your nose and exhale out of your mouth, letting out a sigh. Almost like a sigh of relief. Feel the weight releasing from your chest and shoulders. Perhaps unclench your jaw or stretch your arms out. Settle into your being and soak in the wisdom the Taurus New Moon brings…

The Taurus New Moon on May 19, 2023, holds a grounding vibration, allowing us to rebalance our being and reconnect to a state of ease. We have been through much since the last lunar cycle and now we are given a moment to pause.

While this pause will give us a chance to centre ourselves, there is also some high-powered energy flowing through at the time of this New Moon, activating our Solar Plexus Chakra and inviting us to reconnect with our power.”

Taurus is a sign associated with stability and security, and that is exactly what is on offer under this New Moon. How can you create more security in your life? What steps can you take to feel more stable and secure in yourself?

Issues that crop up around the time of this New Moon may very well be linked to subconscious feelings of insecurity or a lack of self-worth. Pay attention to anything uncomfortable that arises at this time, and see if your insecurities may be playing a role.

So to give you some food for thought I have some lovely journal prompts for you and a wee bit of Taurus Magic to soothe your body.  

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

When I asked the cards who wanted to come and share, these glorious guides were front and centre!

So in case  you have never met them, let me introduce you – and if you have met them before, let me reintroduce you (as not to do so is rude!).  “You have a sacred destiny; we all do.  There is a powerful and profound reason that you are here on the planet.  However, sometimes it may be difficult to understand what that reason is and perceive what is required on your journey into the future.  It may be a challenge to know what the next step in life should be.  This is the time to call upon the energy of nature and majesty of the natural world to provide answers to the heartfelt yearnings of your soul.  In ancient traditions, shamans, medicine women, witches, visionaries, and prophets all accessed hallowed knowledge by observing their natural environment.  These wise beings stepped through mystic gateways into inner realms to bring back meaning to the seemingly random event of life. “

Perfect!

I invite you to just pause, to be still, to allow the swirling energies or your mind chatter to gently slow down as your breath leads the way.  Then invite into your mind’s eye, the image of the bull.  Solid, grounded, earthed, connected.  Then ask your wise inner self – what do you need to know to feel that kind of connection?

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

STILLNESS

Frozen Tundra

The tundra is a stark and severe landscape found in both the southern and northern hemispheres.  It is usually bereft of most plant and animal life, and can only support very low-growing plants such as mosses and lichen.

The soil is frozen year-round, so it is impossible for trees to grow in that barren landscape.  In the winter, the landscape is very cold and dark, and wild winds surge across the desolation.

Even in the summer, the land remains frozen, although the surface can be soggy and covered with lakes, marshes, ponds, and bogs that become havens for millions of migrating 

So what is the message in this landscape?

Take a step back from a project, situation, or relationship, even if for just a few moments.  

Mend bridges.  Slow down.  Breathe.  Be Still.  Go within.  Listen to your inner voice.

Take time to connect with your spirit guides, ancestors, and spiritual guardians.  Listen to your higher self.

Timing is everything.

This is not a good time to start a new cycle.  Wait.  Incubate.  Fix things that need fixing.  Heal things that need healing, and think things through.

Most importantly Forgive yourself and others (forgiveness truly given is a powerful tool).

If things seem barren, or even bleak, or the energy is flat, hold on.  

Just as the migrating birds find new life in the tundra marshes in the summer, you too will expand once again during the coming thaw in your life.

HEALING CHAOS

Spiralling Tornado

Energy in our Universe spirals.  Water spirals in the wake of the fish that swims through the stream.  Air spirals in the wake of a bird in flight.  The moon spirals around the earth, which spirals around the sun, which spirals around the galaxy.

Even our DNA is a spiral.  It is the healing principle of life.  

It’s not an accident that the ancient symbol for healing is the caduceus: two spiralling serpents.

It is the sacred spiral.

Most people assume that there is nothing good that comes from tornados, but every part of nature has value.  

For example, although some birds lose their habitat from a tornado, birds such as the prairie warbler, whippoorwill, woodpecker, grouse, and woodcock, as well as forest salamanders, all benefit from the new landscape created by tornadoes.

Downed trees provide habitat for black bears and white tailed deer and create dens for many kinds of animals.  

Tornadoes churn up the soil in ways that rejuvenate the earth.

So what is this landscape sharing with you?

When you pick Healing Chaos you are acknowledging potential chaos (or the need for chaos) as an activator for profound healing.  

If your life seems chaotic, know that it has an underlying energy of healing.  You are being healed on all levels.  You are a healer.  

However, if your life is calm to the point of being stagnant, it might be time to create a bit of chaos in your life.  It will really activate healing, shift and glorious new energy.  

Do the unexpected.  Mix life up a bit.

EMBRACING

Floodplains

A floodplain is a naturally occurring phenomenon in which the land adjacent to a river floods out to far banks of the surrounding land during times of high water.

Land that is normally dry may be underwater for a period of time.  

When this occurs, silt, sand, and nutrients are deposited.  For this reason, floodplains are often areas of great fertility as well as rich ecosystems.  They are excellent areas for lush, abundant crops.

It is a natural occurrence that allows life in all areas to thrive.

So what do you believe this landscape is saying to you?

Sometimes life overflows with emotions, which can feel uncomfortable.  (As water is very much associated with emotions).  However, the ensuing result of this discomfort can be of great value, perhaps arising from an unseen or unknown source.  

Do you feel your emotions are overflowing, or not flowing at all?

Cherish the overflow of emotions, and embrace the times that seem murky, for your inner floodplains are being replenished, and as a result, there will be massive spiritual and physical expansion.

Embrace all your emotions;  don’t judge them.  After all, when we look at the word e-motion, it is energy in motion and needs to flow.

When you embrace all your emotions; greater prosperity and fertility can flow into your life.

If your emotions have been blocked, now is the time to explore them, feel into them, and experience them so they can move and flow like the water.

Woosah!  Wow, those are amazing messages for getting grounded, don’t you agree?  Wishing you a stupendous week, take time to ground, root and get outside!  There won’t be a reading next week (I don’t believe lol) as it is a long weekend here and I plan on playing and getting outdoors.  Massive hugs and squeezes and be kind with yourself.

Well Hello Mercury Retrograde! And Beltane is almost Here!

· ·

Happy, happy Magickal, Miraculous, Magnificent, Musical, Majestic, Mighty Monday! 

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

Isn’t it just oh so much fun to have that intense of an eclipse and then flop into mercury retrograde?  Part of me has been hugely confused as if I’m coming or going to be honest!

Throw into the mix of eclipse and retrograde,  I welcomed a wee 8 week old English Labrador puppy into our pack on the eclipse, so sleep has become a delicious commodity!  

Thus, I am very thankful I booked off the last few days of work last week as it’s been like walking around in a very peculiar alternate universe.

Okay, let’s have a look at this first Mercury retrograde for 2023.  

On April 21st (so last Friday) in the sign of Taurus Mercury went retrograde, so this will be our “cosmic” energy for the next 3 weeks.   

Mercury retrogrades tend to cyclically happen in signs of the same element and during 2023, all mercury retrogrades are going to happen in Earth signs.

Earth is our connection, our foundation, our stability – so rather important wouldn’t you say?

This eclipse can be seen as an invitation to reflect on, renovate, and reset our relationship with Nature, with our physical body, with matter, with our resources and possessions, as well as with money, receptivity and abundance.

Taurus is the first Earth sign, a simple, grounded, and practical archetype. 

Taurus is concerned with creating conditions that allow life to continue, creating stable and steady foundations and creating space to fully savour the present moment through our bodies.  This sign correlates with our value system, with our self-worth and with survival themes.

So this current Mercury retrograde is inviting you to reflect on your values and how they have been changing.  It’s an invitation to explore different ways of perceiving wealth and abundance and to question your habitual way of thinking about your body and sensuality.  

Basically, we are being inspired to slow down and practice feeling more and speaking less.  

Then on May 1st we welcome in Beltane!  Whoot!

I love Beltane, I love it because it is fiery, passionate, intentional and produces results!  I especially love it as it’s the time when the veil between this Earth and the Fae is exceptionally thin.  So Magick abounds!

Beltane is thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar.  Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

Beltane is the halfway point between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice, making it easy to see why Beltane is typically associated with creativity, prosperity, hope, fertility, and sexuality.

The Beltane fires of yore were a time of revelry, pairing and celebrating fertility (there were lots of babies born 9 months after the celebrations!)  Also, cattle would be led between two fires for protection and to encourage a strong, fertile herd.  Holy wells were visited and feasts were had. 

Rowan was often used in Beltane festivals as it’s a tree of protection and healing. Branches of Rowan were placed as protection over the doors of houses and barns at Beltane to protect from increased Faery activity as they woke from their winter slumber.  (As they can be rather cheeky!)

Sprigs were worn for protection also. Rowan berries have a tiny five-pointed star on the bottom reminiscent of the pentagram.

So all in all a great time to celebrate, set intentions, fertilise either self or ideas and have a grand jolly time and invite the Fae to support you!  

So later this week, for all you glorious souls who are part of our email community, I will have a wee Beltane giftie for you to help you dance with the Fae and ignite your inner fire.

But for now, let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to come play I laughed.  

The reason I laughed is these glorious guides are playful, but deep.  They think outside the box and invite you to do the same. 

 If you have never met these glorious guides, please let me introduce you.  “What is life if not a Divine Circus?  Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us  moments earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

Ha!  Perfect for these delicious energetic times, wouldn’t you say?

Okay dear one, let’s get grounded and present.  Take a glorious deep breath and invite you to see in your mind’s eye abundance.  With Mercury retrograde in Taurus we are being invited to re envision what abundance means.  So what does abundance look like, feel like, smell like to you?  Allow whatever images float up to just swirl in a lovely vortex of colour.  Remember to keep breathing.  

If you need a deeper dive I have a lovely guided visualisation for you where we go on a little trip, don’t fret, you won’t have to pack much.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at your soul strings.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

RA! RA! RA!

Have you had enough of the dark side of life?  Fear, doubt, uncertainty, anxiety, frustration and believing that you cannot manifest your dreams are signs you’ve been in the darkness for too long.  It’s your time to step out of the darkness and into the light.  

It takes a lot of courage to leave darkness behind and embrace the light.  To step into the light means that you give up attachment to drama, the stories of suffering and the pain of the past.  You don’t deny your struggles or your pain, but you know it is possible to let it go in favour of trust, reassurance, comfort and commitment to what holds meaning for you, again and again and again, for as often as needs be until you are free.

Sometimes the courage of stepping into the light means a willingness to set aside the mental anguish and say, “Today I just choose to trust that everything is going to work out according to a higher and unconditionally-loving divine plan that has my best interests at heart.”  It means that you acknowledge what you have gone through without needing to keep score.  It means that you are willing to pay more attention to what is happening in this moment, and to believe wholeheartedly that the universe is working with you and for you, not against you.  

Like the sun cracking through the night to bring the dawn of a new day, this is your divine wake-up call.  Your dark days are numbered and  your time in the divine spotlight is upon you.  Be willing to shine your light, even if no-one else around you seems to understand, acknowledge or recognise it at first, or even for a long time!  

You are brave enough to shine true with or without others holding your hand and encouraging you.  Maybe others need to find their way to you, so they can help you or be helped by your light.  For that to happen, you are going to need to stand in the dark and shine with trust, patience and courage.  

If you’ve been in the dark, so to speak, for a while, you might find it hard to trust in the light at first.  You might worry that the goodness won’t last and that it’s better to be pessimistic now than disappointed later.  Those are tricks of darkness.  Don’t believe in them.  

Trust in the power of light within you and don’t be afraid to let it shine bright.  

GYPSY COLOMBINE

The free spirit in you is rewilding itself, shedding social conditioning and past patterns of behaviour.  It is shaking off socialisation and emerging anew like a snake shedding a skin.  

The wild one within isn’t a save.  It is raw, yes, but also wise, authentic, beautiful and with a deep instinctive knowing as to what you must be. 

Can a bird ever be truly happy whilst trying to be a fish?  True freedom is to be truthfully yourself.

Politeness and people-pleasing, not out of respect but out of fear you will otherwise be rejected, is a form of social conditioning that dulls the wild one within.  

If you reject that conditioning in favour of rewilding, of getting in touch with your true instincts and nature, you will exchange lukewarm tolerance from others for their passionate admiration and love.  

And for those that cannot love you, that are afraid of how much life is in you, then let them be.  They do not belong in your world, nor you in theirs.  

The jungle of life is a vibrant, colourful and exciting place, but not everyone is ready to live there as yet.  That is just the way of things sometimes.

It’s now time to let yourself off the hook, to forgive and forget, to allow what’s been to have been and to start again.  No regrets.  No fear.  No doubt. 

 It’s time to heed the call of the wild and ask yourself, “What would set my spirit free?”

LADY LUCK

Lady Luck is on your side.  A change of fortune is in store for you, a twist of fate that is meant to be.  You’re a winner baby!  You are about to hit the jackpot.

Do you think that luck is something that only happens to other, luckier people?  Your attitude can attract luck to your side, no matter if you once thought you were the unluckiest person alive!

Luck is attracted to a certain type of consciousness, an attitude, a belief that life wants to help you, and has the infinite power and creative imagination to do that in endless ways.  Attracting luck means being open to the genius of life, which works itself out perfectly, bringing benefits to us again and again, even if we have no clue how, where or why it operates the way it does.  

You are being given a golden ticket, a lucky break, a change in fortune that was always meant to be for you, that was in your stars.  You can turn this lucky break into a lucky streak that stays with you for a long, long time, or even forever, with your attitude, your belief in the goodness of life and the generosity of your spirit.

Feel the thrill, the gratitude, the joy of being a winner, and thank the universe for it daily!  Luck will visit you soon and it will love being around you so much, it will decide to stay.

Woosah!  What delicious guides for the energies right now, yes?  So my glorious one, remember to slow it down a tad, re=envision what abundance and sensuality mean to you.  Be gentle with your wonderful self, and let’s get ready to welcome Beltane in!  Have a stupendous week and remember to stop and see the flowers (and smell them).  Big hugs and squeezes.

Signs, a Kick Arse New Moon Eclipse and opening the Eclipse Portal!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Messy, Mysterious, Magickal, Manic, Manifesting Monday!

How was your Easter or Passover?  Mine was delicious, filled with play, food, family, dirt and lots of outdoor adventures!

So let’s get down to it, shall we?  

Because this week we open  up the Eclipse portal this week- whoot!  (No, don’t run away and hide in the closet).

However, before we start – do you remember that I said your mantra this month should be “Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries?” (I hope you have been putting that into practice.)

So let me ask, before we dive into eclipse energy – do you pay attention to the signs that are trying to communicate with you?  I often hear from clients and friends that they are asking for a sign, but because it doesn’t come in the neat tidy package they expect, they ignore it.

Signs are everywhere (think about the stop sign just down the road).  Or the feather that flutters down on your path with no bird in sight.  

Signs are a way of the Universe/Divine communicating and chatting with us.  

Could be numbers that show up, animals that randomly appear, feathers dropping from the sky, a friend you haven’t heard from for years phones, the perfect thing you were desiring manifests.  

Why am I bringing up signs?  

As we open up the eclipse portal many of you have shared they have been experiencing physical symptoms, vivid dreams, that restless energy where it’s as if your skin is fitting a bit too tight, strange signs, insomnia and oh such much more.  

Including zero tolerance for bullshit and arseholes.  

Totally get it!  (Signs)

What does this Eclipse mean for you?

On April 19th/20th (depending where you live) we have the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries (think about that sign). 

This is a hybrid solar eclipse which  is a combination of an annular and total eclipse, where the former becomes the latter and then it reverses back.  

In other words “The Aries New Moon Solar Eclipse is a hybrid between an Annular Eclipse, where you can see a ring of fire around the Sun, and Total Eclipse, where the Sun is completely blocked.”

Hybrid Eclipses are incredibly rare and can suggest a transition or perhaps a shift between two worlds. Just as the Eclipse moves from Total to Annular, perhaps something in our lives is preparing to shift too.”

Eclipses uncover hidden emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and habits.  

They bring to the surface the bits and bobs we have been either trying to stuff into an already over crammed closet, or have continually swept under a rug (and we wonder why the rug has a bump in the middle!)

However, This is a very powerful portal for transformation, change and moving into the next level of productivity and manifestation.

Eclipses  often act as portals to the life that our soul needs us to lead, so we evolve.

The energy of an eclipse can be like a reset button for our lives, allowing us to release old patterns and make way for new growth.

This can be a challenging process, as it often requires us to confront our deepest fears and limitations. But if we’re willing to do the work, eclipses can also be incredibly transformative times that lead to greater clarity, purpose, and fulfillment.

Don’t be afraid to embrace the intensity of the upcoming eclipse season. 

Trust that the universe has a plan for you, and that this powerful energy is leading you toward the life that your soul needs you to lead.

Okay, with all that being said – let’s crack on with the reading.

We have new guides this week, and they are so appropriate!  

Please let me introduce them.  

Have you ever seen something and felt like it was more than what it seems at first glance?  A sign?  We’ve been conditioned to write off these experiences as pure coincidence or nothing more than random occurrences, but that is not always the case.

Signs and symbols are the Universe’s way of communicating with us.  Our willingness to become an active participant in the conversation is a choice.  

The Universe is always communicating and signs speak to us in a very personal way, allowing each of us to have our own one on one relationship with the Divine.  Almost like the Universe has given you a nickname or a secret code that only you can crack.

These guides are a conduit for that energy.  

You are being invited into a conversation with the Divine and your Higher Self that will feed your soul and reveal the very answers you are seeking.

Let go of doubt and follow the signs.

Okay, let’s drop in shall we?  

I invite you to just gently breathe yourself back into this moment.  Just this moment.  

Let the dross of the day or the mind drop to the ground and feel your breath filling your whole being.  Allow it to take whatever pace it needs.  Then invite into your mind’s eye a glorious swirling vortex of energy.  In that energy is interwoven so many glorious messages from the divine just for you and the pieces that you have been stuffing under the carpet.

Let them come up, with no judgment, just watch them, breathe in and welcome the signs from the divine, breathe out and let go of the bumps under the carpet.  

Then when you are ready.  Pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s have a gander, shall we?

PALM

Destiny

Look at your hand, the palm of your hand.  There is power in your palm. 

When you rub your palms together vigorously you create a ball of energy.    A ball of energy that is palpable and can change things.  

So what are you passionate about?  Have you thought about your purpose?

You are being invited back to yourself and your destiny.

Prepare for fated events and glorious moments that seem out of your control.

You may notice an increase in coincidences, and things may align in ways that seem to be impossible.  These forces are pushing you toward your destiny.  You are being nudged to follow your soul’s calling.

If you don’t know what that is yet, take some time to feel into what you are drawn to and what you may enjoy.

You may experience such random connections that lead you to exactly where you are destined to be.  Allow your intuition and spiritual senses to guide you.

If you are feeling like you are destined for more, but not quite sure what that might look like.  Accept that you don’t have an explanation for everything and allow the Universe to work its magic and guide you.

Fate is stepping in and leading you to your next phase.

LOTUS FLOWER

Enlightenment

The lotus flower represents the quiet strength and ease that follow once you have achieved a heightened level of awareness.  There’s an inner knowing, peace, and spiritual connection that shifts your focus from constant worry to allowing yourself to approach situations as they come, with this awareness..

After many life lessons you have grown and acquired valuable wisdom.  Situations that may have previously caused stress or strife now roll off your back.

Approach life with a pure heart and calm mind, which allows you to rise above the noise.

With this enlightenment lifting you up, it is still important to stay grounded.  

Serve as an example for others who may be struggling or not possess the same level of understanding you now have, so be patient and accept people for where they are in their journey.

Remember to connect with your ancestors and your roots. You have lots to share. 

ANGEL NUMBERS

Confirmation

Have you ever looked at your watch, a clock and the numbers are repeated?

Maybe it’s 3:33, 4:44, 11:11 or others.  Repeating numbers are among the most recognisable symbols of the Universe that are speaking directly to you.

Once you start to notice an angel number, it becomes difficult to ignore, whether it be the building number 1111 or a receipt for $3.33 from the petrol station.  

Each pattern of numbers has its own individual message and energy, but overall, numbers are signs of synchronicity and alignment in your life.

They tend to show up as confirmation that you are not imagining the signs you are picking up all around you.

Trust you are on the right path.

There are many different instances in which angel numbers can speak to you, including the time on the clock, license plate numbers, phone numbers and more.

Listen to your intuition, as you could be receiving critical guidance about the road ahead.  

The Universe is guiding and supporting you in your journey, and the synchronicities are a constant reminder.

Trust that you are exactly where you need to be.

Happy Monday!  Happy Eclipse Portal.  Remember to keep your boundaries healthy and strong, release the dross, embrace and work with this gorgeous energy that wants to help and support you.  Huge  hugs, see you next week.  

Spring Equinox, Aries New Moon and Gifts!

· ·

Happy Magnetic,Magickal, Marvellous, Musing, Merry, Musical, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!!!!!!!!

With the energies feeling like they have sped up tenfold and all sorts of delightful opportunities for growth swirling around – this will be a delightfully brief post as it’s Equinox!

I had the joy and honour of leading a glorious in person celebration yesterday, with fire, ritual and amazing women! Then another glorious celebration with the incredible women of Creatrix Circle first thing this morning. 

So now it is time to go play and celebrate in the woods.  

However, I do have 2 glorious free gifts for you to enhance  your celebration and help you with your intention.  I will share them throughout the post.

So here we are my darlings. 

This is the Spring Equinox here in the Northern Hemisphere.  

The time of Beginnings, Fresh Energy, Setting Intentions and planting them with love and care.

With the Spring Equinox your spirit is waking up with new ideas & new dreams for your life.

What are you going to plant?  

In the glorious Southern Hemisphere Mabon is being celebrated, the Fall Equinox, a time to start to harvest what you have sown and to dance within the weaves of gratitude. 

What are you grateful for? 

Equinox is a good time to consider balance in our lives, not only of happiness and sadness, but also of the areas in which we are active and passive, successful and falling short, giving and taking.

What are you receiving (and do you want to keep it)?

And what are you giving (and do you need to)?

Right after this glorious Equinox time where we consider balance the delightful New Moon in Aries comes in.

Aries starts the new astrological year, and is fiery.  Fiery with supporting you in creating something new (see how it ties into the Spring Equinox)?

She brings with her an inspirational time to create, ignite your inner fire and to step into what your soul desires.  She also supports checking in with your inner truth and making sure you are coming from the place that is truly YOU.

Trust that your intentions and desires will be truly supported and nurtured. 

Your task is to set your intentions, receive what is offered and most certainly to have good boundaries against any lower vibration thoughts, people or situations that attempt to undermine this potential. 

Yes?

Perfect, then let’s crack on with the reading.  If these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you to Blessed Be. 

“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.”

Frigging perfect!

So take a moment to become present.  Right here, right now, right in this minute.  

As you breathe, allow your mind’s eye to show you the balance.  The balance between what you are giving and receiving.  Then when you are ready pick the card that calls to you.

If you want to go deep.  One of my gifts to you is a glorious guided Spring Equinox meditation/visualisation. This visualisation will really help you tap into your heart and the potent energy that wants to support you.

Did you remember to pick?

Then let’s go have a good gander shall we?

A BLESSING FROM YOUR ANCESTORS

A blessing to bring you the gifts and guardianship of your ancestral family.

Within your bloodline, and within your spiritual line, there are thousands of relatives who care for you, and whose cells now sing within your body.  You are their future dream, you carry forward the hopes of your distance and most ancient family.  

They have seen so much – yes, in other times and faraway places, but they come to you now and bless you with all the wisdom of their experiences, making you the sum total of a thousand thousand wise ones.

Call upon the wisdom of the blood, the old ones who stand behind you, supporting and holding you, clearly giving to you the knowledge that experience taught them.  

Let only the ancestors who can free you, aid you, support you, and celebrate the best of themselves within you come forward, and may the ailments and regrets of those who have gone before teach you what not to do in this time.

If the family be thin on the ground, or if there is estrangement at present, let the arms of the old ones hold you, form a circle about you, and infuse you with everything you may need at this moment.

You are loved across the distance of time.  

May you be blessed and may you have with you the essence of the Elder, the Teacher, the one who shows, the one who shares with the younger ones, the one who keeps the skills alive inside you, and all about you.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING ON A FRIENDSHIP

A blessing for a friendship where your best self is given permission to emerge and grow, and where mutual love is shared in good times and in bad.

May your friendship be blessed with laughter, but never at the expense of the dignity of one of you.  

May your friendship be a delight to you both, a time of warmth and sharing, give and take, small offerings of what you have sent back and forth between you.  May you be kind to each other, and honest too.  

May you have the trust that true friendship needs to speak of things for the soul, and may there be loyalty, one to the other, without chains or obedience, but freely given.  

May there be affinities of the spirit, differences to exalt in, and if harsh thoughts or words enter in and blight the path or your companionship, may you pick them up as a stone in the road, and move them out of your way.   

Let there be mutual care, and may your friendship endure amidst the inconsistencies of the world.  Let  your friendship have its seasons, but let it turn, on and on, ever – changing, ever-returning, to the place where you find love for each other, and greater love of self for knowing one another.  

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING OF FORGIVENESS

A blessing to be able to be free of the burden of grudges and vengeance, a prayer to help you open up to the blessing that is forgiveness.  

Forgiveness is a tricky beast – and yes, for all it is a gentle word, it is a great beast, forgiveness.  For when we seek to forgive, we must wrestle with the wrongdoing that lies at the heart of our resistance to let go of the pain we are holding on to.  When we need to forgive, it is often that we are too raw, too far away from justice to be able to even touch the side of the balm of forgiveness.

Yet staying angry for long periods of time can develop into a compacted bitterness, and bitterness is a gall to all who wish to live freely.

But what can we do when the wrong is still very much alive,and to forgive another seems to be diminishing their harm, and their potential to harm others.

Justice and forgiveness must work hand in hand, and in this blessing they will now begin to entwine, so that while you begin to forgive first yourself, for whatever wrong was done to you, there is often an element of self-blame.

First, know that whatever wrong was done to you, it is not your fault.  And begin the work of forgiving yourself.  

May the blessing of this self-forgiveness be bestowed upon you now, dear friend.  Know you will gently untangle the doubt and recriminations that have settled like thorns about your heart, and invaded your mind’s peace.  And as begin to forgive yourself, you will also begin to find forgiveness for the injustices you have endured  

Let the anger burn down into coals from which you, phoenix-like, can arise.  

And know you have forgiven – forgiven the other for their dark gift.  Forgiven life.  And most of all, delivered the pure medicine of forgiveness to yourself.

BLESSED BE

Wowzer, those were glorious guides.  As quite frankly, if you aren’t willing to work with forgiveness you can’t create something different, something more supportive.  So my delicious lovely, another free gift is a beautiful ritual to plant your Seeds of Intention.  Equinox blessings and see you in 2 weeks.
