Grace, The Invitation, New Moon in Taurus

Happy Marvelous, Magickal, Meritorious, Melodic, Manifesting Monday! How was your Easter weekend? (Yes it has been that long since I last wrote). I will admit, it was a rather bizarre weekend, social distance walking with my boys, social distance egg decorating in the garden and then video calls whilst we each made our own dinners. But hey, I can’t complain – the weather was stupendous, it was good to see their gorgeous faces and we needed a different type of Easter (I didn’t have to cook a huge meal!) Lol

There are gifts and opportunities in everything!

Which brings me round to the fact that I have been encountering people who don’t see the gift or the opportunities, and they want things to go back to normal overnight and are now starting to get exceptionally twitchy, defiant and angry as week four of social isolation and distancing comes to a close. The ones that are having a tough time with it are the extroverts and those who thought this “little Covid thing” (I have heard that soooo many times) was going to end in a week or two. If I’m the first one to inform you that we are riding these waves of change for at least 4 more months if not longer, I’m sorry. We are. So how can you do it with grace? We are all in this together.

If you are blessed to not be working on the front lines (and massive thanks to all who do), then you have some time on your hands, yes? Are you willing to accept the invitation to find and see the gifts and opportunities in this situation? Can you? Will you allow yourself to relax the tight hold on what should be and breathe into the paradigm shift of what could be?

When I reflected on this question for myself I realised I had a huge list of things I wanted to learn, to try etc. Yet my excuse had always been – I don’t have the time. Guess what? So I sat down with my list the other day and reviewed it. Did I REALLY want to learn Japanese Brush Painting, no. And so it got crossed off the list along with various other items. However, I do want to learn the guitar (which I am doing now), I do want to write more (which I do daily), I do want to learn how to longboard (which I am trying – it’s not pretty, but it’s glorious fun). I do want to dance more, so guess what? Every night when I walk Danu (the therapy) dog, I plug in one of our amazing Light, Love and Laughter playlists and I frigging dance!!!! 5 km of dance, fun and glorious laughter.

So what is the gift or opportunity for you? Who do you want to be at the end of this? (A question to Muse for sure.) Embrace the flow and the paradigm shift, it is far easier and more enjoyable.

Okay enough proselytizing. Lol. On Wednesday we have Earth Day and New Moon in Taurus, utterly fabulous!!! How are you going to spend it? If you had a magic wand and could give a blessing to Mumma Gaia, what would it be?

I love what Chani has to share about this New Moon:- This New Moon urges us to slow down, pay attention to our bodies, enjoy simple pleasures and rethink the ways in which we are using our resources. It calls on us to get creative with our material lives and innovative in the ways in which we think about abundance and mutual prosperity. Conjunct the game-changer of the cosmos, Uranus, and square the planet of form and structure, Saturn, this New Moon helps us to deepen our understanding of which structures can support the changes we are personally and collectively facing, and which are so outdated they have to be completely rethought. Taurus is a slow and steady sign, and the restructuring we are considering making at this moment needs to be integrated a little at a time, in ways that feel sustainable and supportive long-term.

What a positively perfect New Moon energy to work with at this moment in time! Methodical, grateful and sustainable – whoot! Do take time to write down your New Moon Wishes, or start a New Moon Bowl (such a delicious and grounding daily practice!).

Okay, when I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week, the cards that were most insistent are The Oracle of the Shapeshifters.

If these glorious guides are new to you, let me please introduce them (as that is the polite thing to do)! “These are the magickal familiars, once the companions of shamans, witches, wizards, and wise ones – and now they are here for you. Now is the time for you to undertake a great quest – to rebirth yourself within this lifetime and this quest of evolution does not need to be faced alone. We change and we change again. We fear change. Yet it comes. For us to fear change is as foolish as winter crying for the coming of spring. Change is. Fear corrupts. These guides are here to support, encourage and help you through transformation and to teach you to let go of fear. True , deep change must take place for you to fulfill your soul contract. You may have turned from possibility to what you have convinced yourself is probable: You diminish your possible self, reduce who you are, and dilute your spirit. But even when you have sought to remain invisible and hidden away, and said yes to everyone else, life will find you – and transform you. You are never alone with these beings.” Phew! So there we have it, are you ready?

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come support are:- Angel Wing Phantom Quartz – fabulous for connecting to your higher self and to attain a sense of tranquility. Carnelian –stabilising, it restores vitality and motivation, and stimulates creativity. It gives courage, promotes positive life choices, dispels apathy and motivates for success. Citrine – attracts wealth, prosperity and success. It imparts joy, wonder, delight and enthusiasm. Raises self-esteem and self-confidence. Oh yes, and glorious cherry blossoms wanted to share their radiance, and please don’t fret, they were placed in a flower bowl afterwards and are brightening up the corner table!

I am so loving the guides and the crystals that are present for this week.

So delicious lovely, let’s get present and mindful shall we? Take some delicious slow breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth and I invite you to ask the question – What are the gifts or opportunities available to me right now. Am I willing to move with the flow? Breathe that in and if you need some more support I have a delicious short guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

THE GOLDEN PHOENIX

You are transforming – both internally and externally – and this change is blessed, divine, and guided by your Golden Phoenix guardian. Talk to your Golden Phoenix at sunrise – and know that as you do so, your Golden Phoenix is recharging your chakras and your aura, and thus your experiences, thoughts, and reality. You are loved by the Golden Phoenix, and as you honour her with your transformation, she honours you with this marvelous gift of regeneration. Life from death. The sun from the ashes. You rise again, reborn. The Golden Phoenix is perhaps the greatest creature of rebirth and reincarnation. This sacred helper, guardian, and loving companion guides you to die before you die, to be born again within this life, many times. Allow the things that no longer serve you to fall like autumn leaves. Allow yourself to be reborn, like the budding leaves of spring. You are potentially in one of the most invigorating, challenging, and inspiring rebirth cycles ever.

You retreated, rested, and you recovered. And now you will reignite! You thought something – or someone – was done. Dead. In the past. But his once lifeless thing of ashes is about to flame back into full existence! You are about to witness a resurrection, and you and the reborn will have the chance to create something of warmth and beauty together – something pure, innocent, and wise that will benefit many. Life always finds a way – and you will have a Golden Phoenix guiding you to rekindle a dream you gave up on too soon.

THE DELICATE FAERY AND HER FRIENDS

Sometimes the transition between one cycle or stage and another is easy, fluid, flowing, and smooth. At other times it is rough, harsh, cruel, and painful. It is inevitable that, if we are truly alive, we will experience discomfort and challenges when confronted by the unfamiliar. This is no curse – it is evidence of wisdom being taught to us.

We change. We alter ourselves. We adapt. We choose. We become. You are now being shown a way and the gifted magickal tools to strengthen yourself while you develop your skills. You are also being sent a trusted companion to guide you through the deep forests of change. You feel very vulnerable, and there is fear in your heart. But why would there not be? Life is full of transitions, shifts, and epic moments when we can choose between our best self and the tired, conditioned, most often deflated self. In this time of change, there is no map, no guidebook, no previous knowledge to comfortably fall back on.

One cycle has ended. When a cycle changes or when we choose to create change courageously be challenging our limited self-beliefs, questioning our attachments to “truths”, or releasing our attachment to the way in which our lives “should” manifest, we are, either by choice or by contract, undergoing an initiation. A new friend, advisor, or piece of information will empower you. You must now shift the focus from what you fear to what you wish to become and face what it is that is frightening you needlessly.

It will not kill you. It might hurt a bit, but results will make it worth it!

THE UNENDING SADNESS OF LOOKING BACK

Your focus on the pain of the past increases its power. Let it go. This early life-form wishes you to know that it belongs in the past – it does not want to be re-created again and again and again. It does not have any desire to be the source of your pain. You are giving your energy, your breath, your own life to the existence of one who makes no demands on you. The past has hurt you, indeed. But it is long gone. The harm you suffer from now is by your own hand. You hold the very knife that is inflicting the thousand cuts. Put it down.

The shadow of the past is feeding off your energy, becoming a living thing, when its time has long passed and it no longer belongs with you. You are offering yourself to the past as a victim, nursing pain and being suffocated.

Represented by this ancient trilobite, the being you have created from the past, who wants to be a fossil but whom you insist on bringing to life, your true self wants only to be free and to be allowed to evolve and change. For your own sake, you must allow the past to fade so the wound can heal, so the scar can knit and become a mark of power.

Our past is fascinating, our past is rich, and our ancestry is worth investigating. But to live there, to cry because we believe we are no longer at that one perfect time in our lives, is to deny the gifts of the present and the treasures of the future. Your sadness is of your own making, for you are recycling the moment in the past when all changed, when your world failed you, and this is preventing you from opening and being fully alive now.

It’s time to release all that, heal, and let it go. You can do this.

Okay, seriously you can not make this shit up! What glorious cards for where we are at this moment in time and all the gifts, opportunities and creating a new “normal”! Whoot! So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a week of exploring deep into your being what are the important things for you? What do you want to share? And whilst you do this, laugh, play and most certainly dance!!! Happy Earth Day and New Moon. Oh yes, if you are not part of the Light, Love and Laughter Community and would like to be (it’s totally free), just email me. Huge Hugs and Big Blessings!

Today is a Full Moon in Virgo – what do you need to Release? Words have Power and sooooo much more!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy Magickal, Moonlit, Majestic, Manifesting March Monday! How are you delicious lovely? The first day of Spring is almost here and I can most certainly feel the energy building and getting ready to bud – I’m so excited, kinda wiggly like a labrador puppy! We have so much to explore this week (and this is why I am creating something new where we can go deep into all sorts of things as it’s tricky to write about them all in one post!) Also there will be two glorious Equinox bundles (for the Northern Hemisphere and one for the Southern hemisphere) being released on Friday, packed full of rituals, magick, ideas, information and all sorts of goodies to help you really plant strong seeds and step into this powerful energy!

Okay, we have just had International Women’s Day, today is a Full Moon in Virgo, Why you need to Watch Your Words and Spring Equinox is only 10 days away!!!

Yesterday was International Women’s Day! Did you know that the first International Women’s Day occurred in 1911, supported by over one million people? (Think about that, the year alone). Why do we celebrate IWD? We celebrate this global day of recognition to acknowledge and celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and girls, and to raise awareness of the work left to be done. I love the “theme” for this IWD – An equal world is an enabled world. So strike the pose of holding your arms horizontally in front of your body and make the “equal” sign with them. Think what our glorious world would look and feel like if we empowered all genders to be equal, enabled and embraced! Whoot!!

Today is a glorious fat, delicious Full Moon in Virgo which will shine a light on any area of our lives that has been hidden or ignored for too long. We may discover new realisations, or find ourselves feeling the need to purge and release the past so we can move forward. It’s a delicious time under this glorious Super Moon to accept ourselves, our lives, and the circumstances we find ourselves in. Remember acceptance allows space for healing and moving forward.

As Lena shares:- “ This is a practical moon good for supporting discrimination and discernment. Spend some time taking an inventory of your resources. Identify the ones that are not really resources, the ones that are already spent, the ones that need to be acknowledged and used, and the ones that are not yet in your field.

This is a super moon and a good one for visioning, praying, asking for help and committing yourself to better boundaries. Take some time to sort and clear something in your physical environment. It is always a good expression of your internal intentions. Some self-care and alone time should be on your list for today as well. See yourself as a point of reference for others. What kind of a point of reference are you? A positive one that embodies hope, calmness, well-being and neutrality? Or one that embodies negativity, fear and obsession? Your choice.”

On Saturday I went to a great Law of Attraction Workshop put on by Michael Lozier. I had read his book about 8 years ago and had enjoyed it, but I felt I needed a tune up. Which is exactly what I received. A glorious reminder about my language, as Words Have Power. I am being more aware about eradicating the words “Don’t, Not and No” from my vocab. As words create our thoughts, our thoughts create our vibe (feelings) and that influences our results.

So for example on this glorious Full Moon I invite you to take a situation in your life; could be a relationship, work, financial, travel – whatever you chose and then write on the top of a piece of paper “My Ideal…….(fill in the blank). “ Then on one side of the paper write 10 things you don’t want, about in your ideal…….. Then when you have done that list, review it and ask yourself “So What Do I Want?” On the other side of the paper take each “don’t want point” and ask what DO I want (in other words a reframe). For example if you were writing about your ideal new job and said:- I don’t want rigid hours, I don’t want negligent management etc. The reframe would be – my hours are flexible, my management is understanding and reliable. Get it? As you make your way through each point, please remember to cross out the “Don’t want list”, and then light a candle and burn that sucker up. Offer it up, release it and realise that you now have a clarity list and these are the words that you use to describe it, which creates different thoughts, which creates a different Vibe, which creates different RESULTS.

Always remember you have a choice, a RESET button in every moment of every day. Just make sure you know where you put it!

Oh and the other piece of good news is that Mercury goes Direct on Tuesday March 10th! (Thank frigging goodness.) I have heard from quite a few of you that you have found this a rather challenging, frenetic, fast paced time. So with the Full Moon happening the day before, it’s time to release all that energy and fears, yes? Make the above contrast and clarity list.

Okay, I have chuntered on so let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide I giggled when I saw the glorious guides of Oracles of Shadow and Light were front and centre. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to) Wisdom for Misfits, Mystics, Seekers, and Wanderers. Bittersweet…Unheard…Unconventional…Rebellious…Cheeky…Whimsical…Invisible. They’re not the words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they? Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream. They do not fit in. They have had moments of despair. And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all! They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and to consult with an oracle that acknowledges your individuality and strange genius!

How’s that for a warm welcome?

The crystals that wiggled and wobbled are:- Black Moonstone – a powerful connection to the Divine Feminine, Black Madonna, helpful to the oversensitive. Moonstone – mystery, self discovery. Mystic Merlinite – can awaken those parts of the mind that are dormant and activate the full potential of the mind. Oh yes, and some delicious calendula flowers that were eaten shortly afterwards!

Ready? Willing to just settle in for a few minutes? It won’t take long, the invitation is to breathe and just BE for a few moments and with this amazing Full Moon energy swirling around you pick out something you are willing to release and reframe. Got it? When you are ready pick the card or cards that tug at your soul strings.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

STORM ANGEL

This beautiful fairy is dressed in storms: energy around her crackles and sizzles, but she is calm and unharmed. Now it is your time and turn to learn to deal with the energy that is around you, without compromising your own! She appears when energies with major differences collide: when intentions are vastly different, when techniques are worlds apart, and when incompatible belief systems meet up!

There is nothing wrong, at all, with difference: diversity is wonderful. Shadows and light are beautiful and necessary and can coexist in harmony. But certain kinds of differences do not blend…like oil and water, they separate and cannot coexist in harmony. Therefore, she brings change, and when comes, for some it is simple, easy and flowing; for others, dramatic, erratic, wild, and full of static.

She appears when two forms of energy collide; high and love. She appears to burn way the old and create a clear, fresh vibration, where all that is stale, and fearful, and unpleasant has been cleared away. The wonderful thing about this challenging collision is that while you’ll be nudged out of your comfort zone, you’ll also realise just how much has changed, and how far you have come. The results will be worth the pressure – trust me!

As the Storm Angel says: “When I appear, know that it is natural for people to feel tension, to become even more entrenched in their beliefs, and to refuse to let go. The only approach you can take right now is to clearly and powerfully remain in integrity. Do not compromise who you are out of misguided notion of being “compassionate”.

You must speak the truth that is in your heart and stay committed to that truth.

GHOSTS OF THE PAST

At a masquerade ball, you see a beautiful young woman who has taken off her mask. The second she did so, people from her past invaded her party. Some are teachers, some are friends, and others are people she’d rather not see again. One reminds her of being sick once, and others remind her of many other challenging moments in her life. Why is this beauty surrounded by so many reminders at this present time?

She speaks and shares: “All about me are ghosts of the past, come here, perhaps, so I can finally lay them to rest! I have taken off my mask, and I know who I am, while they are still wearing theirs and still very much as I left them so long ago.

It seems I must turn and face them and make peace with them, perhaps even going over some old ground before I can move on to fresh fields. I have an urge to put my mask on, and mingle with them as I was….butI will not. I will be who I am now, and meet them without pretence, and show them who I have become. I am no longer afraid of the shadows in my past. I am at peace with all that I have been and all that I am.

We all have life themes, and we all have challenges and patterns – but the trick is to move through them quickly and to learn from them permanently. These ghosts with masks are here to show you what or who needs an adjustment in your life. A clearing, where you make peace with people you feel you may have wronged, is in order. None of us is perfect. All of us need to forgive and be forgiven.

This is the cause of the indecision you are now facing: the ghosts of the past are haunting you. The time for hiding who you are and pretending to be “normal” and “just like everyone else” is done!

ANGEL OF TIME

The Angel of Time looks very fierce and stern, and that’s because you need to hear her message. You see, if she appeared to you in a soft guise, it would be too easy for you to overlook her message and just continue on as if she had never visited. The truth is that you are forcing yourself beyond your energetic limits at this time – working too hard, self-loving and connecting with the Universe way too little.

So, she has appeared to remind you of what it is you are turning your world into: one big machine, where you are one cog in it. You are an important, soulful, beloved being, but the world of work is not going to end if you step away from its mechanism for a while. “It is time,” she says, “for a time out!” Will you listen?

“I’m getting straight to the point here, because someone really has to tell you. Stop giving so much to your work. All your time. Your energy. Your passion. Take better care of your health. This is the time to fulfill all those promises you’ve made to yourself but barely made even the effort to keep. Meditate, eat well, take up gentle exercise, and change unhealthy emotional patterns that are compromising your well being – these are the challenges you need to set yourself. I thank you in advance, for a happy you makes this world a far better place.!”

Wowzer! What glorious guides for this delicious time. So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a glorious release today, a week filled with ease, effortlessness and flow. And keep your eyes peeled for the glorious Equinox bundle that will be released on Friday! Sending you huge hugs and squeezes, dancing sunbeams and big laughter.

New Moon in Pisces the last one of the Astrological Cycle and Pancake Tuesday!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Musical, Merry, Mischievous, Mercurial, Manifesting Monday! So do tell, how are you doing with this delicious Mercury Retrograde?

I’ve had an interesting week of unwanted (and unasked for) opinions from people I don’t even know that have been glorious opportunities for growth (she says with clenched teeth!) As well as time acting very strange. In fact, time was acting so strangely that I had to double and triple check appointments etc. As this weekend I seemed to have misplaced a whole day! (Most bizarre and discombobulating!) Gotta love how liminal time works.

However, this week we have had glorious sunshine which made me so happy after the horizontal, torrential rain we had for weeks. And as I was yomping with Danu my heart soared as the cherry blossoms were out everywhere! It’s like walking through a delicate Japanese painting, which made me realise that without all the rain we have had – these delicate flowers wouldn’t be out yet. So there is always a positive! Oh yes and there are wild daffs popping out all over the place, gently opening their lovely yellow flutes and glowing in the sun. Spring is coming!

Thank you so much to all of you who reached out about how to drop a grounding cord. It was a delight to help and share with you a recording on how to do it, and your feedback made me grin as you shared where you were when dropping your cord! The public bathroom at a hockey game was the best! It will most certainly help in these glorious energetic times for sure!

Okay, yesterday a glorious New Moon arrived, and if you remember – the New Moon sets the energy for the month and the fact it is in Mercury Retrograde is even more delicious! This New Moon is in Pisces which is the last of the zodiac signs, so we are coming to the end of a year long journey. Thus, this is the last of the lunar cycle before a new astrological year begins.

Well, that’s great Jenn – you may be saying. But what does it mean?

Pisces is watery, and water is the emotional, the divine feminine. It creates a feeling of a liminal place betwixt and between. Where we float on the edge of dreams, aware of subtle energies, magical beings and ghosts of the past and future.

Under this energy, we are being encouraged to reflect, to dive deep into our being, and to think about what we wish to bring into our lives as this new cycle begins. However, as we do this, as Lena shares; “This New Moon can have the potential to scout out old fears, regrets, disappointments, anger, feelings of betrayal and loss, shame and other emotional debris. Don’t wallow in them. These emotions are up because it is time to clear them and move on by engaging creativity, hope, imagination, inspiration and vision of what you want for yourself in the future. Spend time today with anything, anyone, or any environment that raises your vibration, brings you joy, beauty and laughter. Keep it personal, unique to you, and honor your own individuality especially around your personal needs and desires. Own them, forgive the past, and look towards the future.”

An easy way to work with this is to write down your New Moon Wishes, another fabulous way is to work with a New Moon Bowl. I personally do both as that’s just who I am. But give one a try, what do you have to lose?

Pancake Tuesday is this week (nom!) And as someone who was brought up as a Catholic, C of E, Quaker, Unitarian (such a delicious mix), I’m often drawn to exploring sacred texts, different forms of worship and celebration. After all, I chant various pauries from the So Purkh every morning!

Anyhow, on Sunday I went to a United Church nearby and was reminded we start the season of Lent this week, first with Pancake Tuesday and then with Ash Wednesday. I always used to see the season of Lent as deprivation, something to be endured or even dreaded. However, the lovely Minister that I was listening to shared how Lent is a germination time, a time of deeper receiving and planting ourselves in the mystery. A time to become a seed, still and waiting in the darkness and open to the miracles. I sooo loved this as we are currently in Late Winter and this is a time when the shoots are slowly pushing up towards the surface and there is an invitation to notice one sign of rebirth or renewal out in the world. So as you move through the world this week open up all your senses and look for these delicious signs and of course make Pancakes on Tuesday!! I personally will be making crepes galore and stuffing them with various fillings, so if you’re in the neighbourhood, come on over!

Okay, enough chuntering on. When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide this week I was tickled to see that the glorious “White Light Oracle” chose to participate. Now, if you remember this deck came to me right at the beginning of this new year and the new decade. And when I brought them home and opened them up to cleanse, bless and consecrate them I laughed so hard. A wolf! The back of the cards was a wolf and my gorgeous sister Fi loved wolves. In fact for one of her birthdays she went to a wolf sanctuary and learned all about them. And could howl like a glorious wolf with ease. A wolf and a star. Perfect!

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

Ahhhhhh, breathe that last line in please.

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come support are:- Smoky Shadow Quartz – healing properties that work to reconnect us to the earth and its life-giving soil, making it one of the best stones for grounding and balancing. Red Calcite –is a vital stone that increases energy and willingness to experience life. And last but not least, Lemurian Seed – is known as one of the master crystals because it tunes into your spiritual compass, working to unlock the secret doors of your soul. Oh yes and the glorious delicate cherry blossoms wanted to participate.

Okay, let’s settle in. Gift yourself with a few moments and just breathe long and slow. Allow the cares of the day to drop down to the floor. Let your jaw relax, your scalp relax and your breath to just gently slow. I invite you to stay in this space for a moment and invite into your minds eye that relaxing into the mystery, what shoots are burbling beneath the surface, what fears are there? If you need some more support with tapping into this energy there is a lovely guided visualization for you where we do a bit of demolition and construction – no special equipment is needed.

Did you remember to pick?

Are you ready to see what your deep wise self chose for you?

SOVEREIGN QUEEN MAEVE

Value what is sacred to you by protecting it from interference, even that which may be well-intentioned. Be compassionate, but set firm boundaries. You are going to triumph over a negative situation. It will take courage, buy you have more than enough inner strength, resourcefulness and boldness to accomplish what you wish to attain. Do not give up. You have the ability to connect with higher worlds, so open your heart and mind to the light.

At the portal between everyday reality and the rapture of unchecked aliveness stands Sovereign Queen Maeve. She is an initiatrix, taking us beyond the constraints of polite moralism and into the bliss, sacred passion, grit and astuteness needed to cultivate and protect the light.

Goddess, warrior, Queen of the Fae, and fearless guardian and protector of territory. Maeve is wild and determined. Protecting territory from a spiritual perspective is unlike the grasping and self-serving of the ego that wishes to obtain whatever it can for its own benefit. This world needs souls who are willing and able to hold sacred space and refuse to allow it to become contaminated by greed, jealousy, hate or confusion. This is an act of courage and selflessness.

Come home to yourself again and again. Know you are strong enough to live your life and chart your course in communion with the sacred. In Sanskrit, svaraj is ‘self rule’, and, as the meaning of raj is also ‘radiance,’ it can also mean ‘self-luminous.’

Do not allow your destiny to rest in the hands of others. Recognise that the light within is your true ruler. You have the power to light yourself up with Spirit. Commit to what you can do and believe the realms of the Divine are working with you. Do not be dissuaded!

LASYA OF PARVATI

There is a gentler way to proceed and obtain the same, or even greater, effect. Tame the wild and frenzied workings of the mind by grounding yourself with beauty, pleasure and grace. Violence and its negative effects shall be overcome and healed through feminine gentleness and inner spiritual strength. There is so much future happiness.

Parvati is the Universal Mother in her gentle aspect. Although, as with all mothers, her fierce side will emerge if it’s needed to protect. She is beautiful and benevolent and evokes the qualities of love, connection, creativity and devotion to a higher purpose. The Divine Goddess has many names, and Parvati is also known as Jagatambe, the Mother of the Universe. Her son is Ganesha, the elephant-headed deity who fosters success in all ventures and protection from obstacles.

Parvati is a Tridevi, the sacred triune of feminine nature or triple goddess of Hinduism. Parvati is the divine archetype of the vital, competent, creative and loving woman. There is an opportunity here to heal one’s mother wounds and one’s relationship with the feminine more generally.

We can trust that the Divine Mother loves us and responds to what is needed, but also knows how to get things done without being more heavy-handed than necessary. She is genuinely moved by our suffering and will manifest in whatever forms are needed to heal.

Give up the notion that the deepest issues require the most difficult path to heal. Let her Lasya dance of happiness and grace unveil a gentler and more loving way.

PEARL OF SHARRO

Taking responsibility for your experiences empowers you. You are going to resolve an issue through spiritual inspiration and higher guidance. You will rise up in full connection to your spirit and access a wealth of divine treasure. That which has brought darkness into your world shall submit to the light and be transformed. Have courage and commitment to your awakening, for you are a precious being and can go far on the spiritual path this lifetime.

Sharro is a Tibetan word meaning to arise or manifest and shine with radiant spiritual light. Sharro is the outcome of sacred alchemy. It is the manifestation of the pearl beyond price. Created in the depths of the ocean, hidden away in a shell from prying eyes, this pearl symbolizes a beautiful blessing of unexpected grace. It began when an irritant caused the formation of a luminescent coating. The healing response to that initial intrusion resulted in an organic creation of inestimable beauty, value and uniqueness, so this pearl can be a sacred catalyst.

In the inner work of self-transformation, we take that which appears negative and utilise it to increase our goodness. However, we need to take care not to attribute the negativities to divine will that are actually caused by humans. Human beings have free will. Without it, there could be no growth, only a following of rules. For the soul, life is something like a multidimensional art class. It is allowed to create with absolute freedom, with the understanding that it will be responsible for its creations.

You have the capacity to become a light bearer. Safeguard your energy yet trust that the light within is strong enough to see you through any struggle and eventually transform it into a precious pearl of sacred empowerment. You have wisdom in your divinely alchemical heart!

Oh I soooo loved this reading, I hope you did too! Many of you have asked how to go deeper and one of the ways is through a Private Reading. Wishing you a stupendous week filled with laughter, ease and grace. The trust and the faith that you are resting in the mystery and in a space of germination. Oh yes, and a glorious mound of pancakes! However you like them! Big hugs and squeezes.

Simple Abundance, Post Full Moon and Valentines Day!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy Marvellous, Magickal, Mysterious, Magnetic, Mesmerising, Melodious, Mellow, Manifesting Monday! How was the lovely Full Moon for you? I have heard from quite a few of you that you experienced big releases, and delicious heart openings which are awesome. I took some time that day for ritual and then spell casting in the evening (yes I did say spell casting). It was a glorious spell for Joy activation that is best performed under the Full Moon, so I most certainly did it and it felt marvelous (and my home smelled divine). I went to the beach as the sky was crystal clear and hung out with the waves, the moon and listened to that delicious sound that the waves make as they tickle the underside of the rocks. I also took all my crystals outside to get a divine moon bath!

I have had quite a few emails asking if the Imbolc reading special is still available. You bet, until the morning of the 14th (Friday).

Since the beginning of January I have been working with a book called “Simple Abundance”. What is interesting is that I had this book 18 years ago and it didn’t resonate for me at all – so I gave it away. However, now it does (gotta love how books know when you are ready for them.)

One of the things that I’ve been playing with this last week is seeking out the Sublime in the Ordinary. We all have days where we are ruled by our “to do” list and there are the mundane chores that need attending to, so to keep our daily rounds from being all drudgery, we’ve got to savour the art of the small: discovering diminutive delights that bring us joy, peace and pleasure. For example, when I have to cook dinner, instead of multi-tasking on the phone, listening to the radio and getting frustrated with the veg I need to chop. I have been embracing being present and having fun with the food creation and infusing it with love. When I feel bent out of shape that we have had days upon days of rain, I pull on my rain pants and wellies and hop with delight in every puddle I see! I bought a gorgeous bouquet of flowers and have them on the mantelpiece, and I bought a bunch of primulas and popped them into my pots so I see them every time I leave or come home. Simple things that make my smile and give me joy.

In doing this we really seize the essence of life. Embracing every moment. As Margaret Collier Graham wrote in 1906 – “People need joy quite as much as clothing. Some of them need it far more.” So what are some of the joyful simplicities you can bring into your life?

On Friday we have Valentine’s Day. Which let’s be honest, has now become a Hallmark celebration thanks to Chaucer in the 14th century), the meaning of love has become about romantic love which can be tough for people if they have lost someone, choose to be single or just want something different. According to legend, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his judge, and he wrote her a letter signed “Your Valentine” as a farewell before his execution. The Feast of Saint Valentine was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496 to be celebrated on February 14 in honour of the Christian martyr, Saint Valentine of Rome, who died on that date in AD 269.

So I’ve perked what I want to do for Valentine’s and how I want to share and spread love to those I know, and those I don’t. Meringues it is! Little wee meringue nests filled with whipped cream and topped with a raspberry and gift them. Why? Because I believe it is important to remind people that they are loved, seen, valued and important, even the people you don’t know that you walk past on the street. So if any of you want to come over and help meringues, please do and if you know how to make tin foil swans – let me know.

When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to come and guide this week I was tickled when The Oracle of the Dragonfae were adamant. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you:- These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick! They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names.

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to participate are Angel Wing Phantom – Tranquility, Peacock Ore – Happiness/Joy and Mookaite – Nurturing/Decision making. The lovely snowdrops wanted to come participate and are now sitting in a wee vase on my desk.

Okay gorgeous one, let’s take a moment shall we? I invite you to breathe in through your nose and sigh it out through your mouth. Allow your breathing to slow in its own way. And as it does invite into your minds eye the conception of Joy. What does it look like? What does it feel like? If you would like a bit more support there is a lovely guided visualisation for you. Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards or all of them (there is no right or wrong way) that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Are you ready to go have a little look see?

THE LADY GRIAN

I am of the Earth and of the Sol-star’s light. I am the opening of the flower, the love that lives in the flower of your heart. I love you, and wish for you to draw this love energy into your being.

I am a power source that you cannot neglect. Because even if you feel you are being of winter, and that your heart has grown cold and hrd in order to ease the pain, I tell you that you are now ready to reveal your own life source and warmth to another being. The love you have to share will be appreciated and returned. More so, this warm and loving heart energy will be its own reward, as you awaken again to your feeling nature. Please open your heart in this moment.

Allow yourself to love. See the beauty in warmth, and smile as often as you can. Bring forth your joy, and see the opening of others’ hearts. Wear yellow, red and gold: all the colours of my friend, the Sun, and you will feel a great flow of energy awakening throughout your body and energetic being. Please see that the seeds you planted need warm earth in which to grow. Yes, they can survive when it is cold, but they cannot thrive.

So be warm, extend your energy, and know that your truly radiant self will create great opportunity and abundance around you. Simply extend some heart energy, and I will support you and love you until you are the radiance of the Sun incarnated in your own form.

Love. Be loved. Love.

CHUMARA

Beyond the mask we all wear of identity, beyond the construct of who we have been conditioned to believe we are lies your face, your self. This face is tender and new in so many ways, as you have not shown her to the world before. This face has been protected because the world has seemed and proved indeed at times to be a dangerous and unkind place, where those of us who feel different are proved to be so as we brave the taunts and finger pointing. But I now tell you that your protections, your armour and your shield can be removed safely with me. Do not discard her, as you may need her yet in certain situations. But know now she is your armour and her role is to protect your true being.

To you, I now reveal myself. See? Many have recoiled in horror at who I truly am. I’m a Dragonfae Maiden, a Spider Woman, a being of webs and change and destruction, and re-creation. Each day I must remake my world….I feel along its sensory threads to see what needs reconstruction and what needs to be let go of. For I am, as you are, part of the new web of life – a web of life that embraces our differences and yet understands that we are one.

I ask you today to look at the webs in your life that must be remade and rewoven….. Remove your mask that says “I am this,” and know you are that, but also so much much more.

HIDEKI’S DOOR

I know you wish to reach out, and yet you hold back. I know you feel drawn to knock on this door and to see whether it will be answered this time…and yet you fear so much. You fear that it will not be answered…that the answer or the face that appears beyond the door will not be to your liking…that if you enter, you may never return… I cannot put your fears to rest, for only you can do that. But I can tell you what I see. I see a spirit whose flame has flickered low,, whose light is in danger of going out if it does not take the next step. For years you have passed this door and many times you have found yourself here. You may even have knocked at the door, only to flee, like a terrified child, before the door was opened to you.

I say to you now: it is time. Reach out. Knock at the door. And let what will be, be.

Nervous about a new chance…feeling as though your comfort zone is far better than the unknown; longing to travel and to change, yet unwilling to do anything about it; procrastinations and old habits keeping you from reaching out and accepting what is being offered. You are ready…it is simply nerves that are holding you back, conditioned fears and internalised voices from the past. Reach out…take a hold of the handle and be ready for the wonder of the unknown that lies beyond the door. The doors of perception are about to change…forever.

You have nothing to fear, except fear freezing your hand, again. Knock on the door. All is well.

Ahhhhh, lovely! So my delicious lovely, remember the Imbolc reading special is only until the morning of the 14th, if you want to take advantage of it. Have a stupendous week and please play with seeing the Sublime in the Ordinary and breathing in and becoming a delicious beacon of love. Remember you are precious and important and have so much to share. Big hugs and squeezes!!!

Imbolc, February Energy Shift, Full Moon in Leo, And a Reading Special!!

Jenny Heston · 12:01 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Meditative, Mind-Blowing, Meritorious, Musical, Motivational, Mesmerising, Manifesting Monday! (How was that for alliteration?) How are you delicious lovely? So much to share with you this week with Imbolc (we will get into that), February Energy Shift, a Full Moon in Leo happening and you asked and I listened!

So grab a cuppa and let’s natter, yes?

Okay Imbolc was yesterday. Now you may be scratching your head and thinking to yourself – what the heck did she say? Imbolc (yes it does sound like it’s looks). Imbolc is a Celtic fire festival celebrating the emerging life in the world around us as well as the Goddess Brigid who represents the fire of creativity, the protective hearth fire and her firewheel all of which cleanse and purify. Imbolc is a celebration, because for those of us in the mid winter it promises us emergence, growth, renewal and hope and massive cleansing and purification. Imbolc is the halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox and occured on February 1st/2nd.

Okay Jenn, what’s that got to do with me?

Well whether you realise it or not your body is connected to the seasons, to the energy underneath you, around you, above you and in you. Imbolc is one of the seasonal changes on the Wheel of the Year. However, the Wheel of the Year is more than just the seasonal changes from spring to summer to fall to winter. It also encompasses the 8 holidays, or sabbats. Each of these holidays has its own energy and its own place in the cycle that influences. Imbolc brings us the burgeoning Spring energy that feels like a whisper or a possible promise, it’s the gestation time. The time to get clear on what you want to create or bring into your life. If you want to go deeper and explore some rituals and more information on Imbolc, come on over!

Also, quite a few of you have emailed and messaged me saying you missed out on the Winter Solstice reading special and was there going to be another one? Yes! In honour of this gestation time there is an Imbolc Reading Special from today until Valentines, with 3 new Readings added as well! Yes? Thus, it will run for 12 days, but as the spots fill up the special will become unavailable. And don’t forget, you can gift these to others, which a few of you have done! (Which I think is superb!)

Okay, onwards and upwards. We also have another energy shift on a Shamanic level and the energy for this month is “Management”. And of course the best person to explain it is Lena! We initiated the year with two eclipses stirring the pot of intensity creating numerous opportunities to crack open the potential for growth, expansion, new ideas, and intentions. The energy has been forward moving, barely allowing us to catch up with ourselves enough to sift through the bounty and put it all in order. We are faced with the danger of falling back on what we know, where we are comfortable, putting all our energy into what is familiar rather into something new that has landed in our field.

Management as a theme for this month covers management of your inner life as well as the management of your outer life. Management is a responsibility for what you do now with your new-found inspiration even if you see a challenging road ahead. There will always be an aspect of inner management as well as one of outer management. Inner management has to do with lessons learned and the discipline to change belief systems, patterns and perceptions that only you can change. Outer management has to do with the practices, habits and behaviors that come from those belief systems, patterns and perceptions.

Last but not least we have a glorious Full Moon in Leo on either the 8th or 9th (depending on where you are!)

This is a delicious Full Moon and the second one for 2020. The February Full Moon falls on the 8th or 9th of the month, depending on your time zone. It rests in the sign of Leo, and its energy comes to tend to the fire that lives within our hearts. It comes to clear away all that dims our light and separates us from feeling connected to our journey.

“Leo is ruled by the Sun, so whenever we have a Full Moon in the sign of the Sun, it’s extra special. When Leo holds space for the Full Moon, it’s like a ray of light shining down on all that feels dark and heavy in our lives. Leo is a fire sign that reminds us to connect with all that lights us up. It reminds us to connect with our inner fire, with our inner Sun, and to remember that life is for experiencing rather than controlling.

What sets your soul on fire? What fans your inner flame? What brings you a sense of purpose as you move through the experiences of life? These are some of the questions the February Full Moon poses for us. It wants us to connect with these questions so we can work on clearing away all separates us from feeling present and at peace with our lives.”

Wow! So with our gestation time of Imbolc we are asked to figure out what lights us up and get clear. The theme of Management invites us not to fall back into the comfort zone and the Full Moon reminds us yet again to find that fire that resides in us and get clear about it. Are you willing?

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to support and guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were most adamant. I was tickled as yesterday I went exploring the woods, hung out with the trees and just noticed all the little random daffs and crocus that are pushing their way up with vigour!

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it’s rude not to):- “Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle. The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people. May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.” Lovely!

The crystals that woggled and waggled (like miniature labradors) are:- Bloodstone, K-2 Jasper, Chrysocolla.

You ready? I invite you to just BE and BREATHE (please don’t tell me you don’t have time, as you do). Allow any heaviness to gently drop to the ground as you breathe long, slow and deep. Let it become cosmic compost to feed and nurture something new. Keep breathing this way and think about the seeds you want to sow in the Springtime, what are they? If you need some more support or want to go deeper, there is a lovely guided visualisation for you.

When you are ready and you feel relaxed, pick the card or cards that call to you, nudge you or kick you in the arse!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

ISA

Winter has descended upon the Faery Forest. You have ceased struggling and fighting to change what is outside of yourself. Because you have relinquished the battle, you have won the war within yourself. You are now suspending activity and being in the moment. Through this stillness and inner consciousness, you are beginning to understand so much of where you have been and where you will go – and because you are fully in the present and allowing, you can also come to a deeper, more peaceful understanding of what it is you want, value, and desire.

This is a moment of complete stillness and simply be-ing: a long moment where you are completely present. You are as still as a chrysalis, hanging seemingly static from a branch, fragile and mysterious. Like the chrysalis, you will “do” nothing – nothing at all, except become yourself. Your transformation is being worked invisibly, on the inside, and when the time is right, you will share it with the world.

In a situation where you seem to have no control, no power, you are learning the most valuable form of power there is – self mastery. You pause with dignity and strength, and simply by doing this you create the right conditions for the right change.

This time will ultimately bring great peace, wisdom, and choices that enrich your life, others lives, and the healing of the world.

THE GREEN MAN

Not so long ago, all was quiet, dark, and cold…..but something has changed, and it will manifest into your world in significant ways – through you, and all around you. This is a time of renewal, a time of new beginnings and connections for you. Your energy will be extending itself easily, and you will fall in love with the new world you are creating. This is a time for you to actively pursue what it is you wish to create in your life and to acknowledge the presence of the powerful new energies all about you.

Each day will bring these changes, and it is as if life force itself is surging through you, and every cell radiates this bright, strong, fierce new energy.

To be effective, this energy must be directed – not tamed, but given places to flow into – and thus you must choose and shape the energies you are experiencing. Nature and its energies shall pour through you and it is necessary for you to quickly begin to shape these forces in meaningful ways.

This is also a time when you no longer see sharp distinctions between what is outside of yourself and what is within – you feel linked, connected, a part of a great natural magickal whole, and this empowers you into brave, open-hearted action.

Go forward and thrive, dear one!

FRIGGA

You are at a moment of great good fortune in this lifetime. You have created for yourself more than enough, and now the goodness that is flowing to you must be invested and used wisely. It is easy to squander youth or beauty or opportunity, as they seem such an eternal gift – but this card is here to share with you that it is time to ensure that this wonderful moment is worked with wisely. Invest in yourself and in your health, create more wealth, learn and study, and also offer your support and investment to worthy others. Take care of yourself, and truly make yourself into who and what you have always wanted to become.

This time will come around again, but it will not last forever – and so Frigga wishes for you to consider the gifts you are being given, the bounty coming to you, and consider with great vision and earnestness what will provide for you and your loved ones in the years to come. Be ready to act!

Your future can be created now – and the present can become so rich and enduring that nothing can shake your ability to continue prospering – your skills, your home, your mind, your body.

Take care of yourself, and watch the good fortune that flows from your wise investment, for many years to come.

Gosh, this made me smile as it’s positively perfect for the energy at this time! So my delicious lovely, yes the Imbolc reading special is on for a short while, and I have so many wishes for you this week. May you gift yourself with time to focus on your soul’s desires and write them down! May you remember that Spring is coming and take this time to prepare (I have something amazing for you come Spring Equinox!) May you be well, May you be safe, May you be at peace, May you live with ease.

Huge hugs and love! (Oh yes, and glorious mugs of tea!)
