Inspiration

A Week of Remembering, Realigning, and Reawakening Hope.

Hello gorgeous soul,

Settle in with a warm cup of tea or coffee and take a breath. This week brings us into a powerful convergence of energies—Mercury Retrograde, Remembrance Day, and the 11:11 manifestation portal.

It’s a time of reflection, remembering, and conscious intention.

Let’s walk through it together.

Mercury Retrograde (Beginning November 9)

Mercury Retrograde often gets a dramatic reputation, but in truth, it is a deeply supportive astrological phase—if we work with it instead of resisting it.

Think of Mercury Retrograde as a sacred pause.
A chance to realign.

Mercury Retrograde =
Revised
Redefined
Reconsidered
Reclaimed

This is an ideal time to:

Listen to your intuition, not the noise around you
Pay attention to dreams and symbols
Reconnect with people from your past who truly matter
Return to unfinished projects and bring them to completion
Feel into what is true for you now—not what used to be
Come home to what is important

Retrograde is not here to disrupt. It is here to guide us back to ourselves.

Remembrance Day – November 11

Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, marks the end of World War I—at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Every year, we hear the phrase: “Lest We Forget.”

But what are we remembering?

Not just history. Not just battles.

But humanity. Sacrifice. Courage. The cost of peace.

As a woman who has:

Served in the military reserves,
Served as a reserve police officer,
Been raised by and walked alongside those who served,

I hold this day with deep respect.

I have never known war on my doorstep.
I have never feared for the safety of my family as the world crumbled outside.
I know I am blessed.

The poppy, for me, is a symbol of:

Honour for those who served
Love for those who are still away from home
And hope—a hope for peace that is still possible

Even when the world feels heavy, we can choose to remember the human longing for peace and the power of collective empathy.

11:11 – A Portal of Manifestation & Alignment

Remembrance Day also holds the 1111 energy—an angelic and astrological activation.

11 is a master number.
1111 is a doorway.

This energy heightens:

Intuition
Manifestation
Synchronicity
Alignment with your soul path

It’s why people say to make a wish at 11:11. It’s not superstition—it’s resonance.

Close your eyes and remember the last time that you set an intention.

Did you feel doubtful that your wish would come true, or did you have faith that the universe was listening, ready to help you bring your vision to life?

This day invites you to set intentions clearly and with faith.

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

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

As I tuned in for this week, I asked, “What is the most important message for us to receive right now?” And the guidance came through clearly, softly, lovingly:

This is a time of remembering your own inner wisdom.

You are not separate from Source.
You are never alone in your growth, your healing, your longing, or your becoming.

Your guides are asking you to slow down long enough to hear your own soul speaking.

So holding that in your heart and soul, take a deep breath and breathe in Hope.

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

Did you remember to pick?

Come have a look.

FLOW

A meandering river is a waterway that curves, bends, turns, and seems to swing side to side as it flows forward. Viewed from above it looks sinuous and even snakelike. Meandering rivers are dynamic as they wind their way across valley floors and bring life-giving sediment to new habitats.

The word meander was derived from the ancient Meander River, which flows into the Aegean Sea. The Greeks created symbols for “meander” that have been described as some of the most important symbols for ancient Greek culture; they represented the fluid movement of water and the eternal flow of all life.

The twisting patterns were also thought to represent the serpent which was the symbol of healing, hence our present day symbol for doctors is the caduceus.

What does this sacred landscape want you to know?

There are times to hold on tight to the shore, and there are times to enter the flow. Notice where life is going and move in that direction, Watch for signs and follow them. Don’t resist.

When you go with the flow, your life-force expands and healing on all levels abounds.

This is also the time to release old, limiting patterns, forgive, and let go of the need to be right about your beliefs. If you aren’t feeling the smooth currents of life, it might mean that you’re being self-critical and judgmental.

When you enter the flow with gratitude and love, you will find blessings surrounding you. You will enter into a state of grace, and healing will abound.

ENLIGHTENMENT

Our beautiful home galaxy is so large that if you traveled at the speed of light, it would take you 100,000 years to go from one end to the other. (It is small compared to some galaxies – for example, the Hercules A galaxy would take 1.5 million years to cross at the speed of light.)

The realm of galaxies is so vast and so wide that it is beyond human comprehension, which is why the galaxy often symbolises great enlightenment as well a faith in the forces much greater than us.

So what does this sacred landscape want you to know?

Enlightenment occurs when one steps out of the confines of an ordinary definition of self and expands into a greater awareness of the self within the Universe. You are now reaching into the invisible realm of Spirit and connecting with what you cannot see. Forces beneath the surface are supporting you on your journey.

Have FAITH in yourself! You are so much more than you believe yourself to be. Have patience that there is a plan unfolding. The sky’s the limit! You are entering into a time of expansive transformation in a luminous and remarkable way.

Trust that the changes ahead are for the greater good, for most certainly they are. And if you ever doubt, step outside and let the stars remind you!

SECURITY

In ancient times, our forebears took refuge in caves. It was there that they could seek shelter from the weather and be protected from predators and enemies. The cave offered a safe place to prepare food, sleep, heal, and build community.

Caves were also the places where sacred spiritual ceremonies occurred, evidenced by cave drawings and altars that had been built along the ledges. Symbolically, caves often represented a secret pathway to the underworld, the divine womb of Mother Earth, and the sacred heart. Also, caves can be energy portals for shamans or other spiritual explorers.

What does this Sacred Landscape have to share with you?

You are safe and protected. No matter what is occurring in your life, you are in safe hands. Those in the realm of Spirit are watching over you. You can relax and let go.

Once you’ve taken measures to protect yourself and those you love – such as making sure everyone has their seat belt on in the car, making sure your insurance is paid on time, or replacing the filter on your heating unit – then let it go!

If you have been hypervigilant lately, take a break. Relax; know that all is well You can turn it all over to the Creator. And when you forget, breathe into the warm, welcoming cave that is held in your heart!

Wowzer, what glorious messages for this week. How did yours resonate for you? So gorgeous one, I wish for you a wonderful week filled with Hope, Flow, Enlightenment and Ease. Big hugs and squeezes! (And Remember to Remember).

✨ Witchlight & Whisper: Crossing the Threshold of Samhain ✨

Jenny Heston · 12:12 am ·

Gorgeous Soul,

Samhain arrives this Friday, and I can feel the shimmer of it already — that deep, ancient hum that says: something sacred is stirring.

My yard has become a glowing little underworld of its own — tangled spider webs catching the moonlight, skulls grinning beside tombstones, ghostly shapes drifting in the wind, and a few loyal skeleton dogs keeping watch.

Inside, candles hang suspended from the ceiling and flicker to life with the wave of a wand. (Yes, I absolutely believe in a good wand!)

But here’s the thing — if you’re anything like me, you intend to do something meaningful for Samhain every year… and then life swirls in.

You blink, and the day has passed.
The portal opened and closed, and you’re left thinking:
“I meant to pause. I meant to honour it.”

I want you to know — it’s okay.
The magick hasn’t passed you by.

Samhain doesn’t demand perfection — it simply asks for presence.

Even a moment of stillness, a candle lit in the dark, a quiet walk beneath the falling leaves can become a doorway.

Because Samhain isn’t only one night — it’s a season of descent.
A whole stretch of time where the veil thins and the light of summer recedes into mystery.

It’s an ancient Celtic turning point — the end of harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the year. A time when our ancestors drew close, when the otherworld whispered through the wind and dreams carried messages between realms.

Samhain is a threshold — a fertile pause between death and rebirth.

It’s where we can meet the unseen, commune with our guides and ancestors, and listen to the wisdom that surfaces only in stillness. I have to say, I love Samhain as it is the epitome of endings and beginnings.

This is a transformative time of year. When you connect with this potent energy, and let it guide you in your soul work, you can create lasting growth & change in your life.

If you’re feeling the call to explore these mysteries more deeply, to anchor this sacred time with intention and beauty, I created Witchlight & Whisper: Samhain Magick for the Soul as your companion for this very journey.

Inside its 47 luminous pages you’ll find:
🕯️ Rituals to honour the ancestors and the turning of the year
🌑 Reflections and journal prompts for descent and renewal
🍂 Simple ceremonies to meet your Samhain guides
🌕 Spells and seasonal lore to awaken your inner witchlight

Let this book be your lantern as you cross the threshold into the dark half of the year — a guide to remembering that the darkness is not something to fear, but a place of deep dreaming, fertile transformation, and return.

Step into the magick → Witchlight & Whisper: Samhain Magick for the Soul

Now with all that chuntering let’s go meet your guides as we walk towards the threshold.

In this season, your Samhain guides — whether ancestors, animal spirits, or aspects of your own deep knowing — are reaching out.

They move through candlelight, through intuition, through the quiet moments when the world goes still. You don’t have to chase them. Just open the space, light the flame, breathe — and listen.

✨ Ask them what they want you to release.
✨ Ask them what seed they are offering you for the winter ahead.
✨ Ask them how you can walk with greater authenticity and soul.

Ready!

I invite you to take a long, deep, luxurious breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Let your face relax, your jaw relax and the worries of the day drop to the floor like leaves from autumnal trees.

Then I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a glorious warm dark night sky, you feel safe, you feel supported and held and as the clouds pull away you see stars that will guide you. Breathe that in. Allow this gorgeous Feminine Darkness to gently wrap around you and guide you and then when you are ready pick a card or cards that call to you.

You picked yes?

Shall we go see?

FOREST TEMPLE

Enlightenment

The sound of delicate chanting fills the forest. You follow the sound, as you walk down a meandering path into a small clearing. Before you, a forest temple becomes visible. As you get closer, it feels that the chanting is penetrating deep into your soul. Something seems to be shifting within you. Everything is the same, yet everything is somehow different.

Meditate on the light within you and around you. Connect with the ever-present of the Divine. Right now your awareness is increasing. Your ability to understand the world is shifting. More and more, you can see situations from all points of view, and this creates an expansion in all parts of your life.

We can often get stuck in seeing the world from only your personal point of consciousness, which is dramatically restricting possibilities for you. A one-sided adamant view of life can block a vast influx of light, joy, and connection to the Creatrix.

Strict adherence to your beliefs can obstruct wonderful opportunities from flooding your life. Be willing to step outside your limited points of view and see the world from the others’ perspectives, and your life will expand.

With enlightenment, you’ll feel the expansion from a limited sense of self to an awareness of the cosmos around you. That loves you.

Positive changes are coming. You are lightening up; feel buoyant and free. Your connection to Spirit is deepening if you allow it. Old beliefs about who you are and what you deserve in life are falling away, replaced by incredible new paths.

EAGLE SPIRIT

Freedom

Eagle Spirit invites you onto her back, and you dwindle in size so that you can climb on. You hold on to the down beneath her feathers as she soars higher and higher. The forest looks smaller and smaller, yet you can see so clearly as you ascend above the clouds. You have never felt so free!

It’s time to break free and let your spirit fly! Be daring as you go beyond predictable behaviour. Fling your arms up to the heavens in joy.

Also, pay attention when you have let life or others restrict your freedom. Recognising this is the first step to reclaiming your power. Don’t allow yourself to be trapped by convention or the expectations of others. The truth is that you aren’t here on this earth to be ordinary, but to step beyond limitations and self-imposed boundaries.

You have the ability to choose your life on your terms. Perhaps you aren’t always free to create the exact circumstances of your life – but you’re certainly able to decide what meaning to give those situations. Select meanings that empower you, for this is the time to break free. Hold the intent that boundless freedom surges through you, and so it shall.

This is the time to express yourself. Don’t hold back. Choose life on your terms.

Don’t be trapped by the expectations of others.

DAFFODIL FAIRY

New Beginnings

You feel a tap on your shoulder, and in a flash of yellow, you see a Daffodil Fairy fly by you. In a high, sweet voice she says, “The best is yet to be! It’s time for a new beginning!” With glee, you race after her into the forest.

Life goes in cycles. Just as spring follows winter, a new cycle is beginning in your life. In the phases of the earth, the plants die in the fall so that there can be new birth in the spring – it’s the universal dance of death and rebirth. There’s a time to end and begin, and this is the close of one cycle and the beginning of another.

We associate the daffodil with spring, as it is one of the first flowers to emerge after the snows. Its shape echoes the feeling of trumpeting in the new season; its colour suggests vitality, radiance, and sunshine.

It’s time to wipe the slate clean; it’s time to release the old and start again.

It can be difficult to release familiar routines, situations, or relationships when they no longer empower you; however, your higher self encourages you to not cling to the old, but set sail into new waters. If you find yourself afraid to let go, you are urged to face your fear and allow yourself to stretch in a new direction.

The Creatrix is at your side, and wonderful opportunities will be born in your life. Wholeness occurs when you can say yes to both endings and beginnings.

It’s time to start a new project or a new cycle. Life force and vitality are emerging. Release that which doesn’t serve and support you. Make way for a new start!

Lol, you seriously can’t make this shit up! Sorry if swearing offends you, but you can’t! Wishing for you a beautiful Samhain, gift yourself Witchlight and Whispers if you feel called, but most importantly take the invitation that is being offered of stepping into the dark (in the Western Hemisphere) and really embrace yourself.

Big massive Pumpkin Smiles and may wee tiny Mars bars appear when you need them!

With love, light, and a whisper from the Otherworld,

Through Smoke and Starlight: Where Libra’s Balance Meets Samhain’s Magic.

Jenny Heston · 3:13 pm ·

Finding Balance and Magick in the Turning of the Seasons

What a glorious Thanksgiving weekend it was — full of good food, laughter, and golden autumn light! But the true highlight for me? Watching my youngest “monster” (as I affectionately call him) cross the finish line of his very first half marathon!

It was nothing short of epic — especially when I think back to three years ago, when an ATV accident crushed his ankle. He was pieced together with pins and determination, and to see him run 21 kilometres with strength, focus, and sheer tenacity brought tears to my eyes.

Proof, once again, that the human spirit is nothing short of miraculous.

The Libra New Moon — Returning to Center

As we move into the Libra New Moon on October 21st, we officially close Eclipse Season and step onto a brand new path.

Libra, ruled by Venus, invites us into harmony and balance. When the world feels like it’s spinning too fast — when responsibilities pile up, when deadlines and to-do lists start whispering louder — Libra gently calls us home to our center.

This is a time to pause, breathe, and ask:
✨ What does balance look like for me, right now?
✨ Where am I holding judgment — of myself or others — that I can lovingly release?
✨ What three small actions can I take today to restore harmony in my body, mind, and soul?

Even amidst the uncertainty that this New Moon brings (and there is a lot of planetary activity stirring the cosmic pot), balance is the thread that holds it all together.

Gratitude, too, helps us find our footing — honouring how far we’ve come and trusting that we are exactly where we need to be on the path forward.

Samhain Whispers and the Scent of Woodsmoke

And oh, can you feel it? Halloween and Samhain are almost here — that delicious threshold between worlds.

I absolutely adore this time of year: the costumes, the pumpkin carving (we created some wonderfully weird ones this weekend!), the crisp morning air, the smell of wood smoke drifting through the night, and the satisfying crunch of leaves under my boots as I wander.

Samhain (pronounced Sow-een) marks the third and final harvest, the Celtic New Year, and the time when the veil between worlds grows thin. It’s when we honour the ancestors, release what no longer serves us, and step into the mystery of transformation.

Nature mirrors this perfectly — trees shedding their leaves, the earth turning inward, and us doing the same. For me, “death” isn’t something to fear. It’s a release — of old stories, habits, or ways of being — so something new can emerge.

Samhain carries a deep, delicious energy: potent, mysterious, magical. It’s an invitation to turn inward, light a candle, and listen for the whispers of your soul.

And yes, my Samhain Bundle is coming soon — filled with rituals, reflections, and celebrations to help you honour this sacred turning. It will be released on the New Moon, so stay tuned!

So, with visions of pumpkins dancing in your head, the crisp scent of autumn on the breeze, and the crunch of leaves beneath your feet — let’s walk together into this next chapter.

This week, there is no guided visualisation, thus, I invite you to gently call back all the pieces of you that you might have left at the coffee store, the school, in your car, at your desk and breathe them all back to you. As you breathe, see yourself filled up with glorious gorgeous white light and let it pour through you and out your toes. When you feel settled in your body, invite in the energy of Samhain, the wisdom of the ancestors, the thinning of the veil and gently ask them to guide you as you pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see who wants to guide you this week.

WINGED SEER

The Winged Seer is an oracle angel: a being who can see the weavings of energy and thus the way events are set to unfold if the current energies and paths are followed. She then sends you your messages clairvoyantly, through your ability to see clearly, although your visions may seem anything but clear. As you grow to trust your own clear-seeing moments, you will have brighter and brighter flashes of insight, and you will be able to see exactly what is going on within a situation, in a flash.

As so many people hide the truth, even from themselves, it can be hard to receive a visit from me, because I will help you see when someone is camouflaging and half-telling truths, and you will also have insights that seem to come from supernatural sources. It is as if you have changed sight; you can see further, higher, and more deeply within.

You will experience flashes of the future and sudden understandings of the past, and you will be able to foretell likely outcomes. I am the eye of Ra, re-creating your future, and the Adrinka, the protective eye, that watches over you while you sleep, and if you follow through on what you now clearly see, there will be illumination, victory, and wisdom. Trust that sacred Sight.

You have asked for more information, asked to discover what you need to know. Now that the information has come to you, you must be courageous and take action based on what you cannot “logically” explain! It is important, now more than ever, to be honest about what you can see – but most of all, to be honest with your own self.

WITCH AT THE END OF THE WORLD

Storms fly about her, electrical whips crack through the heavy air with their bites of fire, and she sits among them, hugging her hourglass, holding everything together till the force creating the change has done its work.

When the Witch at the End of the World makes her appearance to you, you will know that something’s time has come. There can be no more delaying, for the change has begun. So the best thing for you to do now is prepare for this change.

Find solutions to challenges that will come up when the change comes. You will be fine, by the way, and all will be well, but there will be a time of seeming chaos and difficulty. If you are prepared, and ready to let go and change, and let something end, the little witch’s countdown will not affect you as it will affect others who refuse to acknowledge that changes are coming and become fearful at their inevitable approach.

There is nothing to fear, but plenty to prepare for. You will be safe, and well, and very ready to embrace the new world.

I am not wicked, but I am a witch, and changes are made when the world bends and shifts. I hold this hourglass up to you now so you know that the time for an ending is almost upon us. You can see the signs all about you – the strange weather, the hurricanes, the cyclones, the earth changes all about us – but so many simply say I am wicked for showing you this. They blame me for what they call the catastrophes, and they ignore the signs. They are with you, and it is time to be ready. We are all about to experience a huge change – and it will be for the better. But while we hold on to the old, the storms will blast us, and the land will shift, and self-healing will look like destruction.

There is nothing to be frightened of; only a voyage to weather, and you’ll make it through to the other side of the storm. The changes are part of our journey to a fifth-dimensional world, of the shift to a more peaceful planet, where shadows and light are loved and accepted. All is well.

STRANGE VALENTINE

Love doesn’t always look like we thought it would – thank goodness!

It’s in the strange and the surprising that the sweetest loves can be found, as this odd little pair have found, much to each one’s joy, comfort, and delight!

When this lovely pair, Strange Valentine, comes to visit, you are about to be gifted with love, romance, and friendship from an unexpected, even unusual, place! Don’t let differences keep you apart – because they are what is drawing you together, and when you are as delicate and fragile as you can be, someone as strong and protective as this gorgeous, friendly yeti can be just what you need!

You have an enormous amount of cosmic help at the moment – and it’s all focusing on the area of your love life. You will soon receive very good news regarding a relationship.

You will also do a lot of work on healing old wounds from past relationships, especially past long-term, serious relationships. Now, some of this news may not seem so great at the time.

But please give yourself a chance to absorb the lessons, because you are moving into beautiful new phase of your romantic life, where you will be free to create a wonderful new love life for yourself. Coming…very…soon!

You may experience a massive surge in emotional energy and in romantic beginnings. So it’s very likely you’ll attract, encounter, or simply bump into someone who reawakens long-lost feelings inside you, and who may not be your “type.” Hoorah!

I love how that reading unfolded, first talking about truth, to changes, to love. Aaaahhhhhh. So delicious lovely. May your nose be filled with fresh crisp air and may your feet jump between puddles and crunch leaves. Allow yourself to feel the energy pull you into our next season and trust in the mysteries and magick that are unfolding. Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week!

Love and Prayer: A Sanctuary in Shifting Times.

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

How are you Gorgeous Soul?

First off, thank you so much for all your glorious Birthday messages and wishes, they were greatly received and appreciated.

I will say being dressed up as an inflatable T-Rex with Unicorn friends, dancing and blowing bubbles on the Legislature lawn and wandering the Inner Harbour was pretty frigging epic, and it made so many people laugh and smile.

One woman cried as she was having a dismal day and encountering us and being invited to play, be hugged helped.

Though trying to fit us all into a Horse Drawn Carriage was hilarious, so there was a lot of laughter (which is glorious medicine). (Donner, the horse was very patient with us!)

Secondly, yes there are a few spaces left for the Equinox Reading Special. Which ends on September 30th.

Okay, we are going to talk about LOVE AND PRAYER this week.

Now you may be thinking – ummmm, errr, Jenny WTF? Let me explain.

The World is Pretty Chaotic at the moment – yes?

And if you are someone who gets lost in the chaos by having the news blaring all the time it can knock you off center, take you into the place of divisiveness and judgement.

This month and especially this last week have been full on! Full on with clients, teaching, leading amazing ceremonies, weddings, celebrations and choosing to show up at 100%.

Yes we have multiple strikes happening, yes various world leaders are bonkers, yes some days it takes a lot of energy to get out of bed and stay out of fear.

So what helps? LOVE AND PRAYER

We all know those days. The ones that begin sideways before your first sip of coffee—when nothing flows and everything feels too much.

Or the quieter struggles: bills piling, sales stalling, that ache of “why me, why now?”

Here’s the truth: there is a way through.

A simple, sacred formula. Stand in love. Begin with prayer.

When we stand in love, blame softens. Perspective widens.

Life’s storms don’t vanish, but they shrink to their proper size. We shift from asking what we can get to what we can give.

And then—prayer. Five minutes, thirty, whispered words or silent breath. Ancient chants or a raw “Dear God, what the hell?” There is no wrong way.

Prayer lifts us out of ego, reconnects us to grace, reminds us of what we already carry: love, generosity, breath, life.

Some days it will feel alive and luminous, others flat and routine. Pray anyway. The practice itself is the gift.

Prayer nourishes our spirit, blesses those we love, and opens the heart wide enough to bless strangers too.

It doesn’t need to be grand. A whispered word in traffic. A cup of coffee on the porch. A song half-sung to the sky.

Prayer and love are the threads that hold us steady when life feels unravelled. They remind us that even in challenge, we are connected, seen, and never alone.

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

When I asked the cards who wanted to talk and guide this week I laughed to see that it is the delicious Spirit of the Animals.

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

From this place pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

There is a glorious guided visualisation for you, if you choose. It’s fun!

Did you Remember to Pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

PENGUIN

Authentic

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Break free from others’ expectations.

Love your uniqueness. Just be Yourself!

PRONGHORN

Action

While it is often called an antelope, the pronghorn is a unique species native to North America. Their thick hide protects them from the cold and predators.

Pronghorns’ energy, quick wit and speed are their gifts.

They never drop their antlers, which like antennas represent connection spirit, psychic abilities and intuition.

For Pronghorn, these gifts remain a constant in their lives. Their strong sense of smell and hearing helps them know when things are not right.

If Pronghorn has come to you, you are energetic and have an agile mind. You will have all you ever need. Your intuitive gifts help keep you alerted to danger when you listen.

There is a new path on offer, use your keen eyesight to find the way. In other words, the Antelope meaning reminds you to make your decisions wisely by using your instincts rather than your intellect

Pronghorn people are ultimate adaptors and possess the power of survival. If Pronghorn crosses your path it is saying “Do it now, don’t wait.” Trust your intuition, harness your courage and get ready to “take the leap.”

Your talents will always

Help you land on the pinnacle.

Your quick wit and keen senses

Will lead you to success.

SEA OTTER

Happiness

You are being called to the spontaneous art of playful living.

Otter people swim in the iconic watery world of their intuition and feelings. Otter people are inclusive and welcome the company of family, tribe and community.

Otter people know how to “go with the flow” and master celebrating life with simple things.

Otter energy is the playfulness of a child, available to us at any age. They have a giddiness and reverence for life itself, without the presence of doubt, worry, or skepticism.

Are you fighting life’s currents?

Imagine yourself with a little more Otter energy. What would life look like? What would it take to bring you there?

Your inner child needs room to frolic and play and if you let it out, you will be sure to enjoy life and not simply endure it. Let Otter lead you to all that is good in the world: happiness, abundance, friends and love. The celebration awaits!

Be the master of playful living.

Release expectations and enjoy every day.

Let worry go and instead choose love.

Surrender to the waves.

Your good destiny of love is sure.

What glorious guides for this week as we head into October! Wishing you a stupendous week filled with Ease, Love, Joy and Remembering – You are okay! Big hugs and squeezes!

September is here and the energy has changed. Fall Equinox is coming!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Melodious, Musical, Magickal, Miraculous, Magnetic, Majestic, Manifesting Monday!

September is here, you can smell the difference in the air here. The mornings are cooler and the geese have started flying and the acorns are dropping like mini grenades as I walk under the Garry Oaks!

I love September (I know for some that sounds weird), but I love the impending Fall, it’s a time of harvest, a gathering together.

The mornings are crisper, the days are still warm, but there is that sense of change.

Kids are going back to school, starting a new class and making new friends. University starts again and all sorts of courses such as drumming, music, spanish and a myriad of others are offered up.

The lazy, hazy days of summer are winding down and there is a shift in the energy that invites us to try something new (even if you aren’t school age) and to be willing to release the old that may be a tad too tight (like a kids outgrown running shoes).

There is also a sense of melancholy for some people when Fall starts to whisper with her crisp breathe. The leaves are going to change and then drop from the tree and the days are most certainly getting shorter – and for some this can feel uncomfortable and lonely. Which I can totally appreciate.

Fall Equinox is almost here (and I love this celebration). It is known as Mabon and is the second harvest, beginning of August we celebrated the first harvest festival which was Lammas.

This festival is a time to look at the seeds that you sowed in the Spring, on every level, and reflect on how they have manifested. Most crops are in and the fields are beginning to look brown and are slowly going to sleep for the winter (unless they are filled with gorgeous orange pumpkins).

This is a time to celebrate the abundance and the harvest, as well as to make plans for the winter and to create community. But we will explore that more over the next couple of weeks.

The energy of September (according to the ever amazing Lena), has changed and it is RATTLING THE CAGE! (Gulp!)

As Lena shares:- “

This month we have 2 eclipses and the Equinox making for an intense time of rattling the structures of our foundations of stability, old patterns and anything we may be fiercely attached to. We have heard the phrase, “shaken to awaken” from others and that is exactly the energy of this eclipse time.

The more stubborn the structure, the more intense the rattling and shake up may be.

Some of you may experience traumatic events that open your instinctive center of survival, giving you the opportunity to clear old patterns and dump karmic debris.

And for some of you the rattling may be simply an experience of discomfort in a situation where you receive more clarity about what you really want, leading to better choices in your life. Whatever the case may be, the most important thing is to manage the aftermath proactively so you can use the lessons and guidance of the events to support your own change.

We are unpacking the trigger of the last New Moon in Virgo that prompted a new beginning. While our energy field got the message, the old habits of the personality and the physical body are slow to catch up and need some prompting and reminding of what we don’t want. So stay out of judgment, blame and martyrdom if you find yourself in one of these reminder situations, and know you have created it for yourself to fast track your personal growth and transformation.”

We are in the midst of the Eclipse portal and the invitation to really step into who you are, what you desire, is huge!

Okay, I have chuntered a ton (not a surprise), so let’s crack on with the reading.

When I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were adamant, which made me smile a lot.

“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.”

Re-read that last line about inspiring and urging us……

Okay, take a moment and come back to your body. Just breathe yourself back. Allow in your mind’s eye the smell of the Fall air to whisper around you, the sense of the new and possible. The pieces or desires you have put on the back burner. Breathe it in, welcome it in. Sit with it.

And then when you are ready, pick a card or cards.

Ready to pick?

Shall we go look?

SHE WHO LAUGHS

There is within your life now a great heaviness, an earnestness, and a sense of great gravity to nearly every situation unfolding. Yes, this is of great importance, and yes, there are consequences to consider. But it is time for you to receive the healing power of laughter, the power that lifts the darkness and releases energy that is stagnant, cold, and heavy from our energy field, indeed from our limbs and cells and hearts.

For you, this laughter is as necessary as surgery at this moment, as it will shake loose the cords strapping you tightly to burdens you no longer need to carry.

Let the light break through, and laugh – as without laughter, there can be no perspective, without laughter, there can be no movement forward, without laughter, there can be a sense of deep abiding resentment. Lift this!! Let She Who Laughs begin to help you seek out moments, people, and situations that stir the sense of the ridiculousness within you, and let the healing and the release of laughter roll through you and lift away the pain at the centre of your being.

Its time is passing. It will melt away with tears of laughter that fall and cleanse and free you from the past….For now, the sun breaks through, and your eyes shine once again with mirth and joy.

Welcome back to the world of delight, friend. It’s time.

THE ANCIENT

The Ancient is so old she is almost beyond time. She is able to speak the truth without compromise – as are you. She is so old, has experienced so much, learned and taught so many lessons, that she has become powerful and influential, just as you are becoming, too. So too are you growing older, coming into wisdom. She knows that while others are now going to come to you for advice and guidance, she sees your humanity – your faults and your flaws and your feelings of unworthiness. She wishes to reassure you.

Others will come to you, seeking knowledge, awaiting a blessing, an initiation, and oblivious to the consequences of the path they wish to walk. Wisdom, true wisdom, understands complexity, and you have developed this quality. The Ancient is honourable and human, and yet more than human, and she is courageous and has made sacrifices – as have you. She sees straight through comforting illusions – as do you.

She represents ancient tradition and the challenge of defining the self, yet remaining with a tradition that you value – and this too is one of your challenges. So take responsibility in your life. You will face the battle of choice, and you will be the antidote to gurus and dominant personalities who claim to have all the answers. The Ancient recognises the challenge of being a teacher. This immersion in a world to learn the ancient arts and venerate wisdom and old ways can be expressed in many forms, but everything you are now learning has value. She is the repository for ancient secrets and the contact between worlds. She is wise – and she has learned to consider every word that falls from her lips, even as she longs to call out for freedom.

ASTRILD

When we love, we can gaze directly into the soul of another human being for a while. This in-love sensation reminds us of who we can truly be when we connect with our own self-love. We feel complete, adored, and we open wide to the experience. Energy surges through us, we crave the touch of the beloved.

We are, for a time, quite mad. The love fire has been lit within you, and you are being asked to allow your own self-love to ignite in return. You are feeling sensual, ready to make love, to explore the boundaries of physical sensation, and you wish reality would simply leave you be for a time so you can fully explore this craving and desire.

About you is the sensation of fulfilment, of satisfaction, and for a time, you will live between the worlds while this powerful experience shakes you to the core. And all the while, this faery being gazes into your heart, willing you to remember that not only do you love, you are worth loving.

Astrild’s cool green gaze observes the fire within you, and will remind you again and again that to love yourself, and to love another with all of your heart, is a kind of baptism, a blessing, a ritual, and a trial by fire.

Passion is your whole world. Let the fire embrace you, purify you, and keep walking through the flames of love.

Wowzer, some delicious energy and guidance there! Enjoy the crispness, the smells, the beginning of the leaves changing and we will explore more of what Fall Equinox brings next week. Also, quite a few of you have contacted me about a reading. I will be opening the doors to those at Equinox.

Have a fabulous week and huge hugs and squeezes!
