Mantra

New Moon, rituals and affirmations. June is almost here – which means Summer Solstice!

Jenny Heston · 3:37 pm ·

Happy, happy, Miraculous, Magickal, Merry, Moody, Manifesting May Monday!

Thanks for all the emails saying “Jenn, why wasn’t there a reading last week?”  

There wasn’t a reading as that weekend was a long weekend here in Canada, and it was filled with celebrations!

On Saturday, I had the honour, privilege and delight of officiating a wedding ceremony with an amazing couple that I had been working with for 4 months co-creating a wedding ceremony that really reflected who they were, and what was important to them.  We had the ocean behind us, the trees around us, the friends and family gathered, wild flowers galore and the weather was stupendous.

Then on Sunday I hosted an amazing English Country Garden picnic in a meadow filled with wildflowers to celebrate the mothership’s 94th birthday!  There were tea sandwiches galore, china cups, a glorious cake, song and family and friends.  

So it was a full on weekend to say the least, doing what I love – which is facilitating meaningful moments and marking occassions with ritual!

However, here we are with the last Monday of May happening.  Mercury retrograde is almost finished,  we are closing the eclipse portal and Summer Solstice is coming!  

I love Summer Solstice as it’s filled with power, passion, fire energy and one of the 3 spirit nights where the Fae come out to play.  I’m just finishing up the amazing Summer Solstice guide, which will be available next week, along with a glorious guided visualisation.  

Yet, I’m playing with the name.  

What do you think she should be called?  I’m open to suggestions.  

So as we put May to bed (and I know for a lot of you it has been a long and challenging month), what with Mercury retrograde, Pluto retrograde, the world being chaotic and eclipse season – we end it with a New Moon in Gemini today!  (May 30th).  

Don’t panic – this is a very gentle new moon that has some different invitations for you.  

As Forever shares – “So today, May 30, 2022, the Gemini New Moon closes the Eclipse Portal, bringing an end to Eclipse Season.

Eclipse season is always a highly transformative time. Whatever manifested, Eclipses always put us where we need to be – even if it doesn’t quite feel like it at first! 

While this fresh energy from the Gemini New Moon will be welcomed, there is some mentally foggy energy stirring at this time, cautioning us to move slowly and be patient. While we may feel some ease as we settle on new ground, the Universe is asking us to take it easy.

Being a Gemini New Moon, Gemini is represented by the twins. One twin is mortal, and the other is immortal, reminding us of these two sides of our being.

We all have a body, and we all have a soul, and it is often when they are working together that we feel our best.

Bringing harmony to our body and soul is an energy current that this Gemini New Moon can help us with.

If you want to bring more harmony between these two sides of your being, write down what your human side feels and what your soul side feels, and then set an intention to bring healing and unison to both of these sides. Trust that the Universe will help you build a bridge that both your human and soul side can walk towards.”

After the heavy energies of Eclipse Season, the Gemini New Moon will feel much quieter and should bring a softening.

While this New Moon won’t bring total clarity, it does remind us to be patient, to move slowly, and to focus on the gentler and more subtle aspects of our healing journey.

If life is still feeling hectic after the Eclipse transformations, know that this New Moon brings a reminder that it is ok to take your time to process, digest, and reflect.  After all, we still have Mercury retrograde until June 3rd.  

It’s time for some extra self-care under this New Moon which could involve embracing herbal remedies and teas. Sip on some chamomile, spray your pillow with lavender, and just keep things gentle, quiet, and soft.  

You can cleanse your home with citrus fragrances.  Detox the stale energy from your dwelling with citrus (the essence of Mercury).  Not only will it refresh your home, but it’ll boost your personal vibration as well.

The best activity to do during this lunation is nothing.  A lovely gentle ritual for this time is the Moon Bowl.  Set your New Moon wishes, be gentle with yourself and find your calm centre. 

Oh and if you want a wee one line mantra/affirmation based on your astrological sign for this New Moon energy, I’ve got you covered.

Okay, enough chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that wiggled and jiggled to guide this week are the glorious Sacred Destiny Oracle, guides. 

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

Note the line –  This is the time to call upon the energy of nature and majesty of the natural world to provide answers to the heartfelt yearnings of your soul. 

Perfect guides for this time, as nature nurtures and heals and holds us with love and compassion.  

So darling one, take a moment.  Let the shoulders drop, let the jaw relax and just gently close your eyes and breath.  And I mean breath, in through the nose, open up the belly and out through the mouth with a sigh.  Imagine nature holding you, supporting you, delighting you.  Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper.

If you would like to go a bit deeper, come into the magickal garden with me.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

WONDERS

Quartz

Natural rock crystals – clear, amethyst, citrine, rose, and smoky – were revered in ancient times.  The Aborigines of Australia called it maban, which was the material through which their shamans and elders gained their magical powers.  

The Egyptians believed quartz had mystical healing abilities and would bury their dead with a piece of crystal on their forehead.

The Greeks and Romans believed crystals were solid ice that had been formed by the gods and thus had mystical powers.  Even to the present day, people believe that crystals can help manifest their intentions. 

Perhaps that is because of the piezoelectric qualities of quartz – the reason why quartz can amplify radio signals.

Like the wondrous crystals – just around the corner, exciting possibilities are waiting for you.  

Wonders will be abounding in your life!  Sometimes they won’t be apparent at first; nevertheless, they are there.  The more you see them and embrace them, the more these possibilities will grow in magnitude.

Celebrate and cherish even the smaller ones, no matter how tiny they may seem.  Let go of expectations.  Don’t limit the way that you think that wondrous events could appear in your life.  Be open.

If you believe, anything and everything is possible.

SUCCESS

The Jungle

Tropical jungles are some of the richest and most successful habitats on our planet.  They have incredible diversity – a multitude of plant varieties and animal inhabitants.  

They are dense with life-force that is rapidly growing and rapidly changing.  The lushness of their vegetation is essential to the ecological health of the earth.  

In many ways, the success of the planet depends on the rain forest.  These areas are called the “lungs of the planet”.  The plants absorb carbon dioxide, produce oxygen and help reduce the impact of worldwide climate change.

What does this mean for you?

Like the rich jungle teeming with wonders, miracles and life –  satisfaction, contentment, and fulfilment are at hand.  Success is waiting to expand in your life.  Be ready to accept and embrace this success, for it might occur rapidly.

All is possible.

The gates of triumph are waiting to open.  Being in a state of gratitude for all the small successes in your life will give birth to larger ones.  Your satisfaction will come in many forms and from many areas of life.

Celebrate it all and breathe it all in, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant.  

This is an excellent time to make commitments, sign contracts, and make deals.

Good fortune will ensue.

TRUTH

Song of the Wind

Wind is the realm of the air elements, one of the four elements of life (air, water, fire, and earth).

Air takes form in the oxygen we breathe as well as in breezes and zephyrs. 

It also represents our communication skills.  When we speak, it is the air that passes through our mouths that allows us to speak and communicate.

Wind is also prana, the source of life.  As you communicate your truth to yourself and others, you’ll find new energy and vitality emerging within your life.

The wind is asking you to be honest with yourself and speak from your heart.  

Find your truth.  Listen for what is sincere and honest in others.  

One of the most difficult things to know is what’s true for you and what isn’t.  

Sometimes it takes sincere silence to find your inner voice of truth, but once you find it, let go of anything in your life that isn’t authentic.

Share your truth with others.  Release relationships in which you can’t be yourself and can’t be real.

Being genuine, aligned and authentic can allow your spirit to fly and the song of your soul to be heard in the Universe.  

Beautiful!  So gorgeous, lovely, may your week be blessed, may you be gentle with yourself and practice self care.  Keep your eyes peeled for the amazing Summer Solstice guide (name suggestions welcome), and there may be a glorious Summer Solstice reading special coming up – we are perking it.  Big blessings and massive hugs.

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy, happy Magickal, Miraculous, Magnificent, Musical, Majestic, Mighty Monday!  How was your Solstice and Eclipse?  Mine was Miraculous! (Ha, I slid another M in there).  I basically spent the majority of the weekend doing deep visualisations, huge energy work, glorious ritual and some spell casting.  With the chant Om Namo Narayani (I surrender to the Divine Mother), playing in the background along with the delicious Jason Mraz song – Wise Woman.  

Before I share with you, let me ask a question. Do you believe in MAGICK? (You will see why I asked in a moment).

On Saturday I made a glorious Faery dance circle out of orange and yellow flowers on the beach (close enough so that when high tide came in they would gently be washed out to sea as an offering).  And as I was placing the flowers with mindfulness I looked up for a moment and was gifted not one, not two, but THREE WHALES!  Two adults and a baby swimming between them.  I was in awe!  They are so majestic and exude a strong energy of wisdom, deep diving and peace, and I watched them undulate up and down, blowing water up and out – it was magickal.  

After they had left I turned back to my faery circle and was placing flowers gently (as some of them were rather wee), when I heard this strange noise behind me.  I glanced over my shoulder to see what it was and was gobsmacked!  A huge otter had come out of the ocean and was sitting about 2 feet away from me watching!  Um, err, what?  So all I could think of doing was offering him/her a dried sardine (as I always carry them with me by the ocean).  He grabbed it off the rocks and disappeared back into the water.  Thank goodness Danu was way down the beach trying to steal some other dogs ball, or that could have been tricky as otters can be fierce!

That night, after a lovely candle ritual in the dark, I got out one of my antique teacups and poured some good white wine into it and grabbed some biccies I had made and took them out to place next to the driftwood tree, I had put up at Winter Solstice, in the middle of my garden – as an offering to the Fae.

Sunday morning when I went to take Danu out the teacup was neatly sitting by the bottom of my stairs.  WTF?  Empty and tidy.  I noticed one of the biccies was gone and the other one had wee little bites taken out of it.  Um.  An animal wouldn’t have neatly placed the teacup by my stairs nor have left a biccie, and no human could have walked into the garden (as it’s built in a spiral) without Danu hearing.  Way cool!

So my darlings there is magick in you, around you and everywhere – if you just look for it and welcome it in! 

Okay, many of you have messaged saying “Do I still have time to set intentions and do ritual or did it all have to be done on the weekend?”  

You most certainly do!  

The window is open for about 5 – 6 days so grab that energy, use it as with this last eclipse we are very much at a new dawn, a new day, a new way!  So yes, grab the Book of Summer Solstice (and thank you so much to all who shared the rituals they chose to do) and get clear on who you are and what is your vision.  Oh yes, and the Solstice reading special is still on for a few more days and there are about 5 spots left (for those of you who have asked.)

As I shared on my FB live – the intentions I have set at Solstice and Equinox time have been soul affirming and life changing!  

Okay, enough chuntering on.  Let’s crack on with the reading! So when I asked who wanted to come and share this week I nearly wet myself laughing!  The glorious guides of The Oracle of the Dragonfae were most adamant (I mean most adamant!) 

(You seriously can’t make this shit up!)

Now if these guides are new to you, let me introduce them (as that’s the polite thing to do).  Feel their love.  Know your power….the Dragonfae are our flesh and soul kin, our friends, our guardians and our allies.  When we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life.  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 made me smile.  Amethyst – is a powerful and protective stone.  It guards against psychic attack, transmuting the energy into love and protecting the wearer from all types of harm, including geopathic or electromagnetic stress and ill wishes from others.  Amethyst is a natural tranquiliser.  Citrine – has the nickname of “The Merchants Stone”, as it’s most certainly involved with money, manifestation and marvellousness!  Last but not least, Pyrite – Like a trusted bodyguard, Pyrite is great for the third chakra, enhances will power and helps overcome anxiety.  A fabulous rebalancer and manifestation stone.  

Gorgeous sprigs of Lemon Balm grabbed at me as I came in to write.  Lemon Balm holds the magic of quiet, steady trust.  So with all that being said, let’s go explore.

Take a moment to just BE.  Breathe a lovely exhale out and then allow a deep gorgeous belly breath in.  Breathe until you are ready to pick.  If you want to go a little deeper into getting clear I have a lovely guided visualisation for you (we are heading to the beach!)

Beach and Blessing

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go meet your guides.

LADY OF THE NEW BUDS

See how my garden has grown about me?  See how my children, the darling buds, clamour for my attention?  They cry at night and can be so touchy during the day!  I must shelter them from harshness and keep them in a safe place, till they are strong enough to branch out….even then, my watchful eye will look out for their care.

You see, so many people see the beauty, and do not understand where it sprang from; the rich, loamy soil.  The sweet water poured from the water-Dragonfae into this earth, the minerals of the natural realms, the light of the Sun and the shining sweetness of the crystal moon have all anointed my garden with their blessings.  And then there is me.  So many see my garden, and wonder at it, but they do not see the work and the care that has preceded my domain.  Its beauty is a result of love, care, natural growth and attention to each and every one of its inhabitants.  

When your growth appears around you, from the seeds you have planted, take time to tend this garden.  Enlist the assistance of like-minded souls, and just as you would not feed these tender buds poisons and pollutants, do not feed your ideas the opinions and energies of those who are not in integrity.  Stay true to the vision of your creation and truly take a little time each day to tend this garden, be it of love, ideas, little ones or creative endeavours, until they are robust and begin to grow into their own energy.  For now, it is the tender time, the time when the buds are at most risk from the frost of rejection, the poison of judgement, and the choke of cruelty.  Be vigilant, and you too will have a garden for all to enjoy and love.  

Many will feel you’re fortunate indeed to have created such a beautiful Eden, but they will not see the care you have taken to grow this.  But I have seen.  I have seen it all.  Whisper to her your dreams and ideas, plant your seeds, and watch them grow.  Allow her to inspire you with care for your own budding projects, beings, loves and responsibilities.  

The emergence will come at the right time, because the bud will be forced to flower at some stage – do not allow yourself to wither in the bud.  Divine guidance needs practical application and work.  Action teamed with inspiration will create a beautiful, bountiful paradise.  Work hard at what it is  you love. 

THE TIME GUARDIAN

The feelings you have, of time contracting and expanding, are real insights, not simply your imagination.  Time is a living dimensional being, whose powers include the ability to devote more time to those of us who require it, and for time to speed up or slow down then it may be necessary, too.  It is in this way that we are able to divine and travel through the threads and weavings of time, and move forward into seeing our future…in truth, we are already there.  And much of who we truly are remains an echo.  The time beings of the Dragonfae, of whom I am one, know this, and guard and protect you from confusion.  Similarly, they can assist you when you require time to be created.  

If you feel you are short of time, send a thought message to me, the Guardian of Time, and I will send you all the help you need to meet your goals within the time you feel you have.  Know that time is available to work for and with you; you need only tune into it as a dimensional reality, and connect with the time beings.  Know that you are a timeless being.  Know that you are dimensionally vast, that you are protected, cherished and loved.  

If you work with time rather than trying to compartmentalise, control and define it, if we return to the lunar and solar and astronomical ways, if we celebrate the time changes apparent in nature all around us with the Wheel of the Year, then the time span we have will be richer and more joyful, our vocations will be discovered and we will no longer struggle to cram so much into our days.  Because changing our perceptions is such a mammoth task, the Time Guardian is sometimes very tired, as the prevailing human mindset now is of time needing to be constrained and watched.  He encourages us all to experience the natural flow of the energy we call time, and experience its multi-dimensionality.  There is one simple way to work with him.  Be in the present moment, more often. 

THE MORRIGHAN

I see now that events are moving extremely fast; this is a time of rapid change and creation, so rapid that you may wish to slow down, just a little.  However I say to you clearly that the time to act is now; and that procrastination and hesitation are your enemies at this time.  I can lead you forward through this time, and help you pick your way through the minefield before you.  This is a time of testing and darkness, but through this you will grow strong.  Be aware!  If you have resisted your abilities, or felt blocked in terms of following your life path, these changes will take place very rapidly because they have been waiting for a signal to be able to come in, and they are working hard with you so you do not have to endure a long, drawn-out process of change.  Truly, you are ready.  Take flight with me, and know that taking your own path seriously and acting now with deep integrity, is the way for justice to reach you.

Do not give in to panic and do not run.  Now is the time.  If not now, when?

You have already tortured yourself in a thousand ways with your thoughts.  You cannot avoid change; each day your cells renew, and all you have to do is breathe in and out for this process to take place.  You are confusing stasis with safety – there is nothing to fear, there is everything to gain.  A turning point in your life demands action on your behalf, and backing down or avoidance is not the answer.  Draw strong boundaries and claim your space.  Face trouble rather than turning away.  Confront injustice and change the rules by which you have felt bound.  Learn to work with your strength and your own ability to create deep change.  Lose fear of your own power.  Let your courage feel inspired and know that destiny has given you an opportunity to be the courageous being of action that you truly are.

Oh my gosh, I love, love, love the cards!  Such perfect messages and insight for where we all are right now.  So my gorgeous one, a last gentle reminder that the Solstice Reading Special ends this week and the Book of Summer Solstice will be removed in 3 days.  Have an amazing week!  Be gentle with yourself and others, take time out to just BE and allow the energy to move through you and not get stuck in you.  Massive Hugs and Squeezes.  See you next week!

Well said sir! And the only people that will be u Well said sir!

And the only people that will be upset by this post are men.

Original text spoken by 👉 @lavishmack 👈
Here we go loves, tomorrow brings our once-in-a-bl Here we go loves, tomorrow brings our once-in-a-blue-moon moment. 🌕🩵

This Sagittarius full blue moon is bringing a cosmic green light for growth, expansion and taking the leap into the known (and unknown). 

It’s here to free you from the confines of your comfort zone, illuminate the beliefs and fears that have kept you small, and call you towards the fullest and truest expansion of yourself.

You may already be feeling the restlessness building. A feeling that something needs to change. That you’ve outgrown certain parts of your life, limiting thoughts, old stories or ways of being that no longer fit the version of you you’re becoming.

This moon wants you to stop waiting for some imaginary future and begin taking steps towards the life your heart and soul truly yearn for now.

You’ll know deep down where you’re being called to go and what you’re being called to do and yes, it may feel big. But your soul wouldn’t call you into it if you weren’t ready.

This is your once-in-a-blue-moon moment to believe in yourself, stretch beyond what feels comfortable, trust your path and take the leap.

Just like the Sagittarius archer, draw back your bow, take aim for what you want and go for it.

The Taurus new moon is a powerful reminder that we The Taurus new moon is a powerful reminder that we cannot hear the guidance or receive and anchor in the new energies and frequencies coming in when we are in a state of dysregulation or high alert.

The world is getting quicker and louder, and many of us are being pulled in too many different directions by too many different demands on our time, energy and attention, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, overloaded and agitated.

This moon is asking us to consciously slow down, unplug from the noise of the outside world and take back our attention from anywhere it’s scattered. Because when our attention is scattered, our power and awareness leak, making it easier to feel lost, uncertain and disconnected from ourselves.

This moon is asking us to root deeply into ourselves, regulate our nervous systems and reconnect to our own wisdom, because only from a grounded and rooted place can we truly receive and anchor in the new frequencies and possibilities trying to come through. 

How are you being called to slow down and reconnect to yourself under this moon?

Tiny flower cups for the bees because the fountain Tiny flower cups for the bees because the fountain water was too strong and some were drowning. 🥺🐝

Without bees we have nothing.
No flowers.
No food.
No Spring magic.

So this is your reminder to leave water out, plant flowers and protect the tiny wild things. They are holding the world together. 🌼✨

Bealtaine blessings! 🌸🌿🧚🏼 In the Celtic lands, the Bealtaine blessings! 🌸🌿🧚🏼 In the Celtic lands, the ancient festival of Bealtaine marks the start of the summer season.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Traditionally Bealtaine did not have a fixed date, though it has come to be celebrated by many in modern times on the first of May (and here in Ireland, this week has indeed very much felt like our first glimpse of summer).⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
At this time of year we celebrate the greening, fertility, and abundance of the natural world. The land is bursting with life all around us, renewed from the long sleep of winter.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Much like the festival of Samhain, which sits opposite from Bealtaine on the ever-turning wheel of the year, this is a liminal time when the veil between our physical realm and the spiritual Otherworld thins.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
It is said here in Ireland that the Sídhe, the fairy folk, are more likely pass through the fairy forts, ancient burial mounds, and other “thin places” at this time of year (and folks who wander near these places may likewise find themselves wandering into the Otherworld).⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Many of the rituals performed during this festival are protective in nature.⁣ Perhaps the most time-honored of these rites is the Bealtaine bonfire 🔥 ⁣If you are unable to light a large fire, candle magic is a good option as well.⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
This energy makes Bealtaine a potent time for spirit work, hedge crossing (i.e. trance journeying), and divination. ⁣Similarly, you may have noticed your dreams becoming more vivid, or you might even experience prophetic or lucid dreams. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
In my own practice, getting out onto the land to connect with the local spirits is one of the most important aspects of this day.⁣ I gather herbs and flowers, have a picnic, sing, dance, and share offerings with the local spirits of place 🌀
