Intuition

Happy Mystical, Magickal, Marvellous, Magnetic, Manifesting Monday!

How was your Snow Moon yesterday?  I did a gorgeous ritual for fertility (and heck no I am not talking about children here!  With 5 I think I have that covered), but more about fertility of mind, spirit and creativity. 

So here we are in February!

February is such an interesting month.  In the Northern Hemisphere one day it is sunny and kinda warm, then the next day it is cold, dark pouring rain or puking down snow.  

The perfect seasonal energy to help us nurture those seeds that Imbolc has invited us to dream into being.  And by the way, thank you so much for all the lovely emails about how much you have enjoyed the Imbolc Gift of Fi.  I love hearing all your shares and stories.

So let’s talk about Archetypes, Spirit, Surender and Creativity, shall we? (And if you have worked with me you will KNOW that I love these subjects!)

You may be wondering how they all weave together, but trust me, they most certainly do.

A quick refresher – Imbolc marks the midpoint between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, so we are in late winter here in the Northern Hemisphere and in the Southern you are late summer.

The Archetype for this Late Winter time is the Maker aka as the Artist, The Alchemist, The Innovator, The Creatrix.  

The Maker is the first archetype in the trio of existence – she isn’t intimidated by darkness or by lack.  They know that from the void, creation inevitably emerges.  

With meagre, minimal, and outlandish materials The Maker reveals a new image.  They make an empty room resonate with healing sounds; they generate bounty from the seed that others tossed away.

Though generative this archetype annihilates preconceived notions of what is possible, leaving unexpected openings in the wake of its destruction.  

The Maker does this by, first, being absolutely present (embodied) to what is and, second, trusting that a force greater than themselves awaits constant collaboration with each human soul.  

A prime example of this archetype is the Goddess Brigid.  She is the goddess of hearth, poetry, fire and blacksmith work.  She’s a Maker, a Creatrix.  She is also the goddess that is invoked and welcomed at this time.  

So here with the seasonal energies, we have the archetype that tugs at our bellies and our souls, inviting us to light the spark of something new and different in our lives.  However, note that a Maker trusts that a force greater than themselves awaits constant collaboration.

So what the heck does that mean?

It’s super simple (at least in my world), it’s inviting the Divine into your day to day. 

To allow Source energy to flood through you even when you are doing dishes, not just for the tricky moments.  To do this you have to be willing to Surrender (such a tricky word for most people as they equate that to capitulation).  

Surrender means letting go of what, how, when and who.

In surrender, we let go of how we think things have to be and allow the Divine to be in charge of our lives.  (In other words we take our Ego out of the equation and Trust).  

When we surrender, we give up the obstacles we are putting in the way by trying to take the control out of Divine hands and into our own.

We let go of it all—what we perceive to be good, bad, right, wrong, helpful or limiting.

We let go of the concept of failure and disengage from struggle.  We stop beating ourselves up for what we didn’t do or accomplish, and instead allow Divine love to have its way with us, manifesting through each of us in its own perfection.

(A fabulous fun book that may help you with this process is “Outrageous Openness” by Tosha Silver.)

There is a massive bigger picture that our limited ego minds can’t see and when we can surrender it up and invite in the support – it’s frigging amazing.  The Divine sees a much bigger picture. 

The Greeks used to believe there were Devas everywhere (makes me think of the Borrowers living in the walls).  These beings moved through you to create something that had to be created, and created by you.  In essence they were Spirit beings, and if you blocked them they would go find someone else to make themselves manifest.  

So what do you dream about creating, what are you curious about?  What inspiration have  you received that you have put in the bin as your ego has said – meh, you can’t do that.  

Please don’t tell me you don’t have a creative bone in your body, because that’s bullshit.  If you play with the Archetype of the Maker, invite in the Divine (or the Devas) and just get curious – whether it is through dance, cooking, baking, painting, drawing, writing, building, planting or a myriad of other ways.  You just may be surprised.  

As Elizabeth Gilbert says – “A creative life is an amplified life. It’s a bigger life, a happier life, an expanded life, and a hell of a lot more interesting life.

So as we move through late Winter, let’s dance with bigger, happier, expanded and a hell of a lot more interesting, yes?

Okay, enough chuntering, when I went to the cards and asked who wanted to come and play I giggled as Fairy Wisdom  wanted to be front and centre.  Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them.

These glorious guides give you needed glimpses into your everyday life and help you see where changes can be made to enhance your life here on Earth.  There is so much more to our world than we often perceive.

There exist many dimensions and numerous beings that reside in these realms.  All of these elemental beings are interconnected with us.  We do not live independent of one another but are interdependent.  These wonderful beings are here to help.

They not only take care of the Earth, but they work hard to take care of us.  We are familiar with many of these beings, such as angels, faeries, and elves.  There are many more we are not conscious of, but they, nevertheless, contribute to the workings of our planet.  

Remember as you go through  your day, to ask for help from the elemental world whenever you need it.  The need is never too small to call on their help.  It is through helping us that they advance in their spiritual development.  We are their work.  We in turn can spiritually evolve through allowing them to help us.  To all these amazing beings we say Thank You.

Frigging perfect!

Okay glorious bean, let’s just take a moment and breathe.  Breathe all of the pieces of you back to you.  Allow your jaw to relax, your shoulders to gently rotate back and drop and your toes to curl.

Then, with the energy of the Maker archetype swirling in your mind’s eye I invite you to breathe a wee blessing to the message and guide you are meant to receive this week.

Ready?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

FAIRIES

Spirit Realm

You have a faery within you.  You have an inborn ability to tap into spirits of the mystical realm.

You may find that you are enhanced with an otherworldly, magical, fairylike quality.  You may come from a long line of faery ancestors, caring the bloodline of these ancients.  Others may  notice something different about you.

Eccentric might come to the minds of some who are acquainted with you.  But do you care?  Do  you need to care?  No!  And that is how it should be!

You may see, hear and know things others do not.  There is a special twinkle in your eye….these are the eyes that can see faeries, and communicate with all the elementals.  It’s time to work with the Heavenly as well as the Earthly spirits.  Whether you realise it or not, you are a gifted person….Intuitive and capable of easily channelling the energies of the Universe.

Remember to always use this gift and power for the highest good of all.  Always ask that you be guided in its use and no one comes to harm through your ministering.  

Remember to keep your ego out of your spiritual work, for therein lies your downfall.   Give credit where credit is due….Spirit does the work.  Through you.  

I joyously embrace my uniqueness.

I embrace all that comes from Spirit.

I allow Spirit to move within my being

And to assist the growth of others as well as myself.

I know that all healing comes from Spirit

And I graciously accept the gifts bestowed upon me,

And as such,

I bring only honour to the name of Spirit.  

So be it!

LIGHTING THE WAY

Illumination 

We all wish for guidance and help along the way, yet sometimes guidance comes from within.  When we connect to the energy of Spirit that resides within each of us, we see clearly what we are to do.  Reach for the stars!

Allow that communication with Spirit to connect you to your highest good.

Connecting to Spirit is as easy as recognising that you are already one with the Universal Power. It’s time to trust in your Divinity.  Ultimately, you are to be one who shows others the way.  You hold the light for them as they climb the path of illumination.  

In order to do so you must continue your own journey in learning and refining your own truth.  

It is only through example that we can change our world, one person at a time.  But if enough people hold the light, in enough places, we can bring about change at a much more advanced rate.

This faery holds the lantern for all to see, so that anyone who wishes to climb the path can better see the footholds and avoid the pitfalls.  She has reached the highest peak.  Her face shows that she takes her job seriously.  

Guidance can come in many forms…the words of a friend or loved one, or of a professional counsellor.  Guidance can come from a book or a stranger’s words.  

Listen to what information comes your way, then sit with it.  You will get a sense as to whether it is valid for you or not, if you are open and willing to hear your truth. 

You may be destined to teach, support or counsel others.

Each step of my journey is illuminated and sure.

I move with trust and confidence.

I welcome the chance to light the way for others.

I hold the light high.

So be it!

Oh my giddy Aunt, love the guides for this week!  How did they feel for you?  So gorgeous bean, I invite you to play with the Archetype of Maker, allow the Divine to walk with you and think about the seeds you are dreaming into being and what you want to create in your life.  Big hugs and see you next week.
