New Moon

New Moon in Scorpio, November Energy Shift to Truth, Chaos & Mayhem and Candles!

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Manifesting, Majestic, Major, Malleable, Matchless first Monday of November! How has your week been delicious one? How was Halloween/Samhain for you? I have so much I want to share with you about the New Moon, the Energy for November and all sorts of random deliciousness, thus this post might be a tad long. So let’s start with the energy of November.

Every month has a different energy or theme to it. If you remember October was:- Taking Inventory, and September was:- Restructure and Recalibrate. Well this month, November, has the interesting theme of TRUTH. As Lena Stevens shares:- “We focus on truth this month as an energy with the opportunity to tap into a greater and higher truth as well as to discover our own truth on many levels allowing us to speak and make choices from our own truth rather than a truth we don’t resonate with. You could witness great polarity as one person’s truth is never completely the same experience as another person’s truth. You will also see posturing around judgment masquerading as truth. If there was ever a month to “not take things personally”, this would be it.

We need to differentiate here between truth and beliefs. Truth is an energy that is experienced in the higher mind and the higher intellectual center. Beliefs are how the intellectual center or the mind processes information, giving that information a definition to more easily organize it for understanding life experiences and events. Beliefs are structured from patterns we came in with as well as our imprinting and what we choose to learn and believe over our lifetime.

Truth is an experience of inner knowing and requires trusting our intuition. Truth is often not able to be explained intellectually and has to do with instinctive and emotional reactions rather than anything we had the time to “think through”. We know when we have not listened to our inner truth that things can go badly – “If we had just listened to our intuition”.

To find out more about this energy and how it will show up for you this month on a more daily level, do please go over and check out what Lena has to share, she is quite amazing.

So there we have the shamanic energy imprint for November and if we look at the month of November from an Astrological point of view, it’s a chaotic, tumultuous energy month where a lot is happening all at once and this can lead to feeling off balance, out of kilter and a tad messed up. For November you can expect big changes, liberation from fear, awakenings, changes of fortune and chances to get lucky. Now why is it so tumultuous you may ask? Good question grasshopper. Well, Uranus is essentially moving backwards from the sign of Taurus to Aries, now in case you have forgotten, Uranus is the planet of chaos and change (getting the feeling now?) On top of that Jupiter is changing signs and moving from Scorpio to Sagittarius. We also will see a Mercury retrograde coming up and all sorts of various other aspects. So what the heck does this all mean? If you feel that you are caught up in the “Universal Washing Machine” and it all feels a bit out of control, then you are feeling the energy of it all. Now don’t fret because we have an invitation to look at the truth of it all for ourselves and to really welcome in big, true, positive change and liberation. A perfect time to do this would be the New Moon that happens on Wednesday.

Now this delicious New Moon is in Scorpio and she invites you to tune into the wisdom and love that resides inside your heart and soul. You are going to be encouraged to view things from the heart and to find love, compassion, and empathy not just towards others, but also towards yourself. Showing yourself love and compassion is the ultimate spiritual practice, and will help you to find your confidence, raise your vibration, and live a more fulfilling life. The benefits of self-love are really endless.

On this New Moon, really make it a point to be extra kind to yourself. Hold yourself close to your heart, and be gentle and loving in what you say and what you think. Even if negative thoughts creep in, try to remind yourself that you are on a journey of learning and growing, and there is no need for you to have a “perfect” life. So give yourself a little time on Wednesday to take this energy and plant your New Moon wishes.

So there we have it, a lot is unfolding this month my delicious lovely, but it’s all going to be really delicious (honest). I’ve already been feeling the shift in energy and the planetary movement as I have to say this has been a rather surreal week for me, kind of like dancing with the thin veil and actually giving myself permission to BE in that space for a few days and not get trapped in the DO space (although lots got done lol).

On Tuesday I was tapped, like tapped on every layer and level as I had been a tad negligent about recharging my batteries, so I stayed in bed for the morning (which was delicious) and literally had those dreams that feel like fever induced. Do you know what I mean? They are cool, but weird, but there’s a message, but their weird. Yes? Or is that just me? I decided to actually work the energy of the waning moon and she did not disappoint. Now, if you don’t know what that means, it’s all about creative, nourishing time, lucid dreaming time and getting ready to act when New Moon comes. When I finally surfaced I realised that energetically I had to clean and cleanse my house. So I mixed up some rosemary, geranium, lemon and lavender and created a place that felt good on all levels, then went to the ocean, picked a bunch of rocks and gridded the space with intention. (Now I know that may sound odd, but it really isn’t.)

I then lit a lovely fat candle and just sat for a bit and breathed in the shift and change, the peace and ease that now exuded into the space. As I sat looking at the lovely candle and it’s dancing flame on the mantelpiece it got me thinking about candles (as one does). I realised that I use candles daily. I use them in ritual, I light one every day in my home with the blessing “For home, hearth, health, harmony and happiness”. At birthday’s there are candles galore, on the cake, on the table – everywhere. When I receive news that literally brings me to my knees I will light a candle. When I am sending a blessing, a prayer or a bubble of healing energy – I will light a candle. Am I the only one in this? Do you light candles for all sorts of reasons?

For the whole of last week I played with the waning energy of the moon and allowed myself to just BE in that space of inward reflection, nurturing and cocoon like, it was fabulous! On the weekend my niece and were meant to go for a big explore, however, a close family friend who had been my niece’s surrogate gran had passed on Friday, so we decided maybe a huge explore in the rain is not the most nurturing thing we could do. Thus, guess what we did? We went to a glorious cathedral, you know the type with all the amazing stained glass windows and vaulted stone ceilings? The type where you push open the large, heavy wooden doors and there is a sense of hush and peace? As we walked in the air was so still and calm and we soon found banks and banks of candles waiting to be lit. Thus, we lit some candles, offered up blessings and then just sat quietly on a pew and let the whispers rise to the vaulted ceiling. It was quite lovely (but see what I mean about candles?) We then went for a big walk along the breakwater that juts out into the ocean and as we walked we were delighted to see that we were being accompanied by six swimming seals! They were quite magnificent and they swam alongside where we were for a good kilometer, quite awe inspiring. We ended up our little jaunt sitting in Murchies tea house with a large piece of cake each and great big mugs of pumpkin spice latte, reminiscing and sharing stories of the lovely woman and the different roles she had played in both of our lives. So all in all it was a really nice day of honouring, remembering, healing and moving with the energy as opposed to forcing something.

Okay, now I have chuntered on a tad too much, so let’s crack on with the reading. The cards that wiggled, jiggled and danced to come and support this week are The Lightworker Oracle. Now, if you have never worked with this deck, she is really quite divine. She is for anyone who wants to connect with divine light, accelerate their spiritual evolution and develop their connection with higher spiritual guidance. Yes? The crystals that literally danced their way out of there gorgeous resting spot are:- Brecciated Jasper, Rhyolite and Sodalite. Of course the autumn leaves needed to be involved as they wanted to provide you with a colourful backdrop. I did get an interesting download for a guided visualisation yesterday, thus, there is one if you feel inclined. Its quite an interesting one and I was thrilled to receive it. If not, just settle into your body and let your breathing gently slow down. Then with the the energy of Truth and the New Moon energy of love pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Ready?

Shall we go see?

TRUST IN THE PLAN

In preparation for radical growth, there can be temporary disorder and chaos. Whilst the mind may worry that something is going wrong, the spirit knows that this is a way for the old to disassemble so the new can be formed. Although you may feel out of control during such times, you do not need to resist the process. There is no need to attempt to impose your own sense of order upon the greater plan. You do not need to seek solutions, for there is no problem here in need of solving. What has been is being cleared away in preparation for the next chapter in your life. Have faith. All is well.

Do not fear. You may see the life you have known appears to be ending. You may find that the things you used to do or the way you used to think no longer seem as relevant as they once were. You may feel your relationships and friendships are changing. Some may even be ending. Perhaps you find you no longer have the energy or motivation to keep certain relationships going in your life.

However, your energy is meant to be withdrawing from what it once supported. This is not an abandonment or betrayal. It is not selfish. It is honest. When you trust in your spiritual growth, all that happens is love. That means that even an apparent loss always serves love, whether that is immediately obvious or not. It is sometimes necessary for both parties to become free to live their true destiny.

Life is a loving, creative journey for your soul. That means there will be times when the very thing you have worked towards needs to crumble, so that the next evolution of your soul manifestation upon the earth can take place. You are divinely scheduled to evolve at this point in your life. Can you sense an exciting growth phase happening for you? There is another way for you to live, to be, to thrive and love in this world, and you are rapidly heading towards it. This is a time to surrender control and allow a higher power to direct your course. Many exciting new opportunities, situations and connections will come into your life as a result of what you are experiencing now. It is all part of a greater divine intelligence unfolding in loving service to your own sacred life path. Trust in an unfolding higher plan. Know that all changes in your life serve your higher good.

WISDOM OF THE DIVINE FEMININE

Divine feminine wisdom empowers you to grow into your vision, your dreams and the fulfillment of your life purpose. Perhaps you envision a very different life for yourself to what you are experiencing now. This wisdom reminds you that you can experience even the most extraordinary dreams as reality if you willing to grow into what you desire, to become what you seek. Surrender any plans about how you can best manifest your dreams and, instead, allow life to guide and nourish you through your experiences each day. The Universe supports your divine destiny and is helping you become all you are meant to be.

When the wisdom of the Divine Feminine reaches for you, the message is clear: You are in a process of becoming more of heaven on earth. Sometimes, there are growing pains alongside the joy such growth brings. You may feel concerned, thinking your pain is an indication that you are failing in some way. You may judge your suffering as a sign that you are not operating at a “high enough” frequency.

When things are difficult or you are feeling doubt – when you feel the need to do something that scares you and challenges you at the depths of your being – you are experiencing growing pains. They will pass, and you will benefit from the growth. However, you need to know that, whilst this difficulty is in your life, the Divine is very much with you, encouraging you, believing in you so much that it will deliver a tough lesson. You can handle it for however long it needs to continue (and that won’t be forever).

The Divine Feminine speaks to you now and promises that if you are willing to show up to your life each day and trust in the circumstances before you, she will guide you into your most beautiful divine destiny. It is safe to trust her. She wants for you only the best and most beautiful life journey – one perfectly suited for all that you are and all that you can be. Your heart beats in perfect rhythm with the heart of love at the centre of our universe. Trust your heart, and trust life. All is progressing beautifully, as you are guided ever deeper into your divine fulfillment.

EARTH HEALING

You are making a real contribution to the planet through your spiritual journey. Remember this and believe that your needs will be generously met by the earth and the Universe. What you are doing matters, and you will be supported.

The earth recognises you. She sees you as a conduit through which she is fed higher frequencies of light, love and divine presence. This assists her on the journey of her own evolution. Earth is an exceptionally beautiful and powerful divine being in her own right. Yet she, like every other being, benefits from the assistance of higher frequencies, which offer a loving hand to help raise her vibration and continue her evolution.

You are here to have your spiritual life journey in a human body. Part of that process will involve sharing your light with the earth, itself. This may see you take on the role of a healer, guide, mentor or teacher to others on the path. It may see you doing work with the natural world, with various earth-centred causes such as conservation and animal-welfare, organic and biodynamic farming and ethical food production. It may involve an active prayer life that is ongoing through your day, praying for assistance, compassion, clearing and blessing when you see and accident on the road, an animal or person who seems to be suffering, or an item on the news that you know needs light and healing.

From the most obvious gestures to the more subtle, you are powerful enough to make a meaningful contribution to the quality of consciousness upon Earth. Earth asks you to do your work with quiet confidence and dedication. She gives thanks for all you have done and acknowledges her love for you. She will support you in your work by providing material means for you, whilst you are here on this planet. What you are doing matters. Yes, you are going to expand and grow in the work you are doing and the impact that you have in the world, because you are capable of that. Keep working, shining and growing, dear one. Your presence here is so needed and honoured.

Wowzer! Those were some very strong cards and I love the fact that the Divine Feminine came out (as she is part of the Moon energy and an aspect of the New Moon). How did you feel about your card/s? Well delicious one, wishing you amazing New Moon wishes, crunchy leaves and bowls of warm soup. Go light a candle and offer yourself and others a beautiful blessing and remember that you are perfectly wonderful and amazing just as you are! Huge hugs and squeezes! See you next week.

Super New Moon in Leo with a Partial Solar Eclipse and Private Reading Special

Jenny Heston · 12:00 pm ·

Here we go, are you ready for the 3rd Eclipse in 4 weeks? As so many of you have been asking for private readings, especially with all this deliciously, delightful chaotic energy abounding I felt strongly moved to make this available and to take 20% off in honour of this time. This Eclipse Special is available from today (the 10th of August until 20th). For more information you can find and book your particular reading on the Private Reading page. Now onto what is happening with this eclipse.

This partial solar eclipse happens on a Super New Moon on Saturday August 11th. Remember that we have talked about how eclipses bring up the hidden and there is an energy of transformation and change? Thus, if you had any doubt that the Universe is inviting you to transform, change, step up authentically and with courage – kick that doubt to the curb! As my old Auntie would say – you can’t afford the luxury of disbelief.

Pretending it’s not happening, sticking your head in the sand or wanting to hide out for the next few months will not serve you. Whether you like it or not – Life is going to find you and invite you to come play in the dance of change.

Eclipses bring things to an end and open the door to something new beginning (which can be very exciting, but also terrifying, especially if it is something that you weren’t expecting!) Here’s a great analogy by Susan Millar:- “During an eclipse period, it is as though you will walk over a rickety old bridge. As you walk across this bridge, over a very deep, rugged, treacherous ravine, you may be a little nervous. Once you make it to the other side, the bridge will collapse and you will see the pieces fall far into the deep, perhaps making you jittery. The bridge snaps just as you get to safe ground, but you realize, first, that you could have been on that bridge when it fell (but you weren’t), and more importantly, you will never again be able to walk back over to the other side. Once we go through an eclipse, we can never go back to the former situation again, for the universe wants us to make progress, not go back to good old days. That option is taken away, forever. The only way with an eclipse is forward. If you find later you don’t like where you wind up, you can always have the option to make changes up ahead, but again, they must be future choices, not ones that bring you back to the past.”

So are you getting the message?

The job of an eclipse is to shine a glaring ray of truth to the part of your life that is being touched, and truth will likely arrive in a startling way. Eclipses are brilliant illuminators, revealing a truth about a condition that you never in a million years knew existed. Once you are given the information, the news can act as a catalyst to a major decision or action you will take. Most often we are shocked or surprised by the information that comes to us, for the eclipse is one of the most dramatic tools the universe uses to get you to sit up, pay attention, and take action. Eclipses are always your friends, for they are there to help to protect you. Always be grateful for truth.

This eclipse happens on a New Moon in Leo and on a numerological level it is pretty key. Let me explain what all that means. First, Leo is governed by the sun and the energy is hot, fiery and passionate and all about having the courage to really step forward and into something different with intention and authenticity. And if we look around at Mother Nature she is showing us this in various ways. The whole of Southern Europe is in a massive heat wave, experiencing temperatures that are brutal. Here in my little neck of the woods (literally) we have had heat warnings due to how hot it is and the sky is thick with the smoke of forest fires galore. Now, I don’t know about you, but when it’s this hot I find it very challenging to want to do anything other than curl up in a dark cold room. But this is where intention, passion and working with the fire within you and the courage to take a step comes into play.

As Kari Samuels shares with us:- “This Supermoon eclipse is teaching you to let go of anything getting in the way of you expressing your authentic nature, so you can fully step into your power! It’s happening on the 11th day this month, in an 11 Universal Year (2+0+1+8 = 11).

11 is the number of Illumination

This season of eclipses has brought you many revelations, making you fully aware that you deserve better!

You’ve been receiving many divine downloads about what you can no longer tolerate, and what you need to do to change your life.

Summon up the courage of the lion to believe in yourself so you can make the changes you need to manifest your heart’s desires.”

This is a glorious opportunity and time for change, growth and expansion even with the discomfort and challenges we may have also encountered. As Lena Stevens shares with us:-

“The theme of this new moon is “new directions”. With new insights, hard lessons and a creative outlook, you can use this New Moon to consider a new direction in some area of life.

Take some time to ask these questions: “What am I completing? What do I need to complete? What truth is allowing me to shift priorities? What truth is supporting me to cut something loose? How is this making space for a new direction? How can I support my creativity to take advantage of the opportunity?

This eclipse (as the last two were also) is surrounded by intensity, unpredictability and irritability. Be assertive about your truth and your new direction without being reactive to any judgments or negativity from others. This is your time. Celebrate it by honoring the sun’s energy, your own will, creativity, and ability to manifest a new direction for yourself.”

So an invitation for you on this glorious New Moon Eclipse.

Take some time to write down your New Moon wishes. Sit out in the garden, by the water – where ever feeds your soul and write up to 10 wishes for YOU (not someone else) that you would like to create with this powerful energy of change and transformation. Okay?

Then plant them. Literally dig a little hole where ever you are and pop them in the ground, or send them out to sea with big blessings and releasing time lines and the form that they are to come to you in. This is a gorgeous practice and if you have a tough time writing what you would really like, write what you don’t want and then flip the verbiage.

And remember that there is something incredible waiting for you on the precipice of your destiny. It’s all there within arms reach, are you willing to be bold enough to reach for it and move through change and transformation? Also, do take advantage of the Eclipse Reading Special to help you attain courage, move with grace and ease through change and transformation and really manifest what your soul desires. Enjoy!

Kissing is Banned! Post Eclipse and New Moon. Weekly Reading July 16th.

Jenny Heston · 1:11 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Mellow, Magnetic, Miraculous, Mindful Monday!!!! Phew (You have to admit that wasn’t bad for alliteration!) How has your last week been delicious lovely? I did hear from a lot of you that you were getting a tad tweaked with the eclipse and New Moon energy and to be honest, if you are at all sensitive (which most of us are), then of course you are going to feel it. I did my first ever public Facebook Live to talk about this (and that was terrifying lol).

Remember that the New Moon sets the energy for the month, right? So the energy for this upcoming month is sensitive (as the New Moon was in Cancer), all about what makes you feel at home, nourishes and supports you and the invitation to step up into more of what you want. So this is where Intention comes into play, in a big way. Energy follows Intention, so set your intentions with clarity and let the energy follow them. Please don’t set an intention and then the minute you are done start second guessing it, as guess where the energy is going to go? You guessed it, after the second aspect. So my invitation to you is as we navigate this energy for the next couple of months (yes I did say that), and play with the Fire energy of this season – key thing is be kind and gentle with yourself and allow (note that word) the feelings to come up and just flow through you. Some days you are going to be so inspired and filled with vim and vigour that you want to go conquer the world, other days you may feel like you want to hide out in a dark closet with a large bottle of wine and a straw! Just let it flow and stay focused on your Intention, okay?

I will be honest, the energy for me over the last 6 days has been intense at times, and there have been brief moments when I would forget all the tools in my tool box and turn into a gibbering lunatic (figuratively, not literally) and at those moments it would take a herd of wild horses and multiple lassos to reign everything back in! Or to go for a big walk in the woods, or sit with my feet in the creek. Hasn’t helped a ton that the weather has been brutally hot as being a redhead I tend to wilt in supreme heat and get very crotchety! Thus for good chunk of the week, as I have been outside a lot, I have felt a bit like a reverse sundial. Instead of following the sun I have been moving in the opposite direction and following patch of shade to patch of shade lol. Which to be honest, has helped keep me a tad cooler which is awesome and allowed me to get done a good chunk of what I needed to outside and not bite anyone’s head off! As I was prepping for the reading I was doing a bit of research and did you know that Kissing was Banned in 1439? Me neither. Apparently it was banned in an attempt to stop the “Black Death” from spreading. Curious as to how it was enforced…….. I mean seriously, there are a couple of people kissing in their little stone floor kitchen? How would that be dealt with? Most odd.

Today when I went to do the reading I found a patch of shade in my garden surrounded by wildflowers, creeping thyme and roses. The sunflowers are slowly opening and I think when it is all said and done I will have about 50 – 60! (The birds really helped with that). Besides hanging out in the garden and sitting on the grass, watching the bees dip in and out of the flowers, the hummingbirds dash in with their frenetic wing beats and the butterflies nestle, brings me a sense of peace.

So with all that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading. It was no surprise to me that the Oracle of the Dragonfae were itching to come play. They are 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 came out to play were interesting. We have Aragonite – which balances the energy field, works with all chakras, renewal, strength and healing. A glorious heart made of wood, and Stilbite – which expands consciousness, and helps organise the mind and release confusion as well as helping you take charge of life by committing to a direction. And of course Selenite to amplify and clear.

There is a glorious visualisation to help you get really grounded and open to the possibilities prior to picking a card, should you so choose. It involves a garden, but you won’t need garden gloves or tools. If not, then just take a few moments to come into your body, breathe, put the burdens of the day down and go within. Allow your inner wise self to rise up and whisper to you. When you are ready, give a great big smile and pick the card or cards that call to you. Enjoy.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

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 appear 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 grown 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.

THE LISTENER

How much have you missed because I could not have the space, the wild quiet, the blessed peace in which to whisper my secret straight to your soul? How much more could you be aware of if you simply took the time to be still and silent? The whole world can be heard in a moment….and now it is your time to be still, and to be silent. Listen and truly understand what it is you are hearing. Listen with your being, your entire being, not just your ears. Allow your senses to be the soul’s messengers. Sometimes we need to be quiet and listen. But first of all we need to be quiet. So many people talk so much of the time. And the talking and the talking and the filling up of space simply drowns out the messages.

The dragonfae do not decry conversation and robust dialogue, the joyous clash of friends talking with each other, or the singing out of voices….especially when raised in joy, celebration, song and good cheer! But this card speaks of a time when it would be right for you to be still, and to listen, as the world whispers her secrets to you. We do not want to be making so much noise that we drown out our own signs and messages. So be still. Be silent. And be ready for the messages to come in sweet, subtle and magickal ways.

It’s time to remove yourself from the hustle and the bustle, from built-up urban and industrial areas, and go deep into nature and find the still pace of solitude in which the soul can speak – and be heard! Turn down the stress, the demands, the social whirl, the noise that can drown out meaning. In the words of Shakespeare, chatter is often “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” You would do well to seek the counsel of spirit in nature, to rest in a quiet grove within. Furthermore, when the soul speaks, listen, come into alignment and act from that space of integrity. The Listener does not feel the need to tell all about what she has heard. In fact, she is content to simply act, without broadcasting her moves, and to allow her dreams into being, to follow the guidance of her message without exhausting the energy of the message by talking it out.

She is silent and she seems still. But all of her actions are powerful and purposeful because they are born from a pure, still place of energy. Hers is the quiet glade and sudden, glad truth of the soul, and in these truths are great wisdom and delight.

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.

Wow! Nurturing, Being Quiet to hear the messages and Removing the Mask. Love it! And it’s sooooo apt for this energy at this time. Thus my delicious lovely, I wish for you a glorious week of cooling moments, also moments of stillness and quiet where you can hear your soul whisper to you. Glorious glasses of clean water and the knowing that you are loved and supported no matter if you feel like a mess. Also remember – Energy follows Intention.

Huge hugs and squeezes! See you next week.

New Moon In Gemini, Ancestors and Summer Solstice is almost here!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy, happy magnificent, magickal, mesmerising Monday! How are you delicious lovely? Have you had a glorious week? If you remember from our reading last week, the energy of this month is one of moving from Air to Fire (ideas to manifestation) and also Discipline and Action. Thus, have you played with either of those energies in the past week? With the New Moon in Gemini on the 13th (Wednesday), this is a glorious time to really take the ideas (Air) and set wishes/intentions towards the passion and intentional action (Fire) you want to take. If you have forgotten how to make New Moon wishes, don’t worry, we have you covered!

The last few days here have been far cooler and rainier, which in a way has been quite lovely as it has saved me watering the garden, the plants are growing in leaps and bounds and it’s also meant that I have to be indoors more. Thus, those lovely housekeeping tasks that I had been putting off due to the weather being so stupendous, got done! But what I found really interesting was the whole concept of Ancestors that came up as I was doing things like polishing the furniture and taking down the cobwebs. (And no, no hallucinogens were being used whilst cleaning the house!)

How it all came about was as I finished polishing the 70 year old dining room table, I was gently smoothing a gorgeous hand tatted tablecloth over it and I realised that that particular table cloth was 99 years old! What??? My great aunt had made it as part of her wedding trousseau, and as my hand ran along the intricate hand tatted lace I could imagine her as a young woman sitting by a coal fire, with a lamp lit, gently putting together all the pieces that she would take with her when she got married and started her own home. Wow! Ancestors. Then a little while later I was sorting through papers and getting things ready to pop into the post today. I am renewing my British passport and so I had asked my mother if she happened to have a copy of my father’s long form birth certificate. She most certainly did and when it arrived in the mail there was also another long form certificate written all in Gaelic. Hmmm, what is this? It was was my father’s fathers long form birth certificate from 1883 where he was born in County Mayo Ireland and there were the names of my great grandfather and my great grandmother and the profession of the male. Holy Hannah, that was cool. I know back to three generations on the maternal side, but only 1.5 generations on the paternal side. Ancestors. So this got me to perking even more, how often do we acknowledge, invite or even explore our heritage, ancestry? I know quite a few people who have done the DNA Ancestry Testing and have been quite surprised by the results, and as cool as that is I guess I am thinking more about the faces and the energy aspect of Ancestry than the DNA piece. Does that make sense?

When I used to Karma Krew at Enlightened Warrior, one of the sayings that we used a lot was “AHO” as an acknowledgement and in various of the “processes” that would occur in this format of camp often you would hear “aho mitakuye oyasin”, which is a phrase from the Lakota language meaning “I welcome all my relations”, it acknowledges the connection to lineage and to nature. Ancestors. This in turn got me to thinking about when I meditate or when I am out in the woods, what if I were to invite the wisdom, teachings and supportive energy of my Ancestors to be with me, would it make a difference? Well I tried it yesterday out in the woods, and all I can say was it was pretty stupendous. I felt like I had my own special entourage with me, guiding me, whispering words of encouragement and holding me in an energy of love and safety. I highly encourage you to give it a try!

Phew, so with all that being said let’s crack on with the reading. I was delighted to see The Oracle of the Sacred Rebels come out to play, as I was highly curious to see which deck would pick up on the energy of Ancestors and New Moon Intentions. Then I asked the crystals who would like to come and they literally pointed me to the rocks. The rocks that are part of the biggest crystal we know of – Mother Earth. This made me giggle in delight as often when I think of Ancestors I think of “The trees and the stones, the plants and the bones.” Therefore, the reading was done outside on a bed of glorious rocks.

So are you ready? I invite you to ask your ancestors for guidance as you breathe and look at the cards. See if they are willing to come show you what you need to know for this week. If you need a bit of support with really tapping into this type of energy, I have created a pretty interesting visualisation for you. There is a little cosmic travelling, but it won’t take long and you will be totally safe. So just breathe and let’s go on a little explore.

Did you pick the cards or cards that whispered to you?

Shall we go have a little look see?

FOLLOW YOUR OWN RHYTHM

Deep within you are moved by an ancient, powerful force that cannot be tamed. It is the rising pulse of your connection to the life force. You feel it in your bones, in your blood, in your heart and in your belly. When there is something dying within, you sense it falling away, no longer needed. You sense when it is time to rest and be patiently in transition. You feel the stirring of agitation and restlessness when new life calls you to create, to act, to step forward and to take a risk. You know that you march to your own bet, that no-one else can tell you what your inner rhythms are and that you must trust in your own timing. You cannot be rushed or forced, nor can you be held back when it is time to burst forth. Life celebrates and supports the natural rise and fall of your inner rhythms.

You cannot miss what you are destined for nor will you gain anything by trying to push yourself. Trust in the life cycles within, and you will feel the perfect balance between effort and surrender, discipline and letting go.

When it is time for the rhythm of rest, you will feel a natural slowing within and be drawn into contemplation and environments are more gentle, spacious or nourishing and perhaps more peaceful. When the rhythm of play beats in your heart, you will reach out to others to connect, dance, converse, sing, make music, make love and share your wildness. You will be drawn to uplifting groups and places where you can experience a positive energetic exchange.

Your needs will be met in harmony with your rhythms. All that you will miss out on by trusting this, is anxiety. What you will gain is peace.

WHAT DO YOU FEEL?

There are many opinions around you. Some are helpful but others are distracting you from your truth. Although it can be helpful to hear the thoughts of others, when it all comes down to it, you will have to come to your own decision. Do you know how unique you are? How your path is your path to be chosen, lived and created – only by you? Someone else cannot become the source of your decision-making power without negative repercussions for both of you in the long run.

You have become swept up in thinking things through. You have been thinking about which way to go with a matter of importance and you have got a bit stuck in the logic of the decision making process. Sometimes we have to accept that any path is a path forward and if it is not the best path, we can change our approach later on if needed. If we are slightly off base with a decision, life will often shift and move to guide us back on track. We don’t have to be perfect. In fact, there is rarely ever a perfect choice to be made – just some choices that feel more heart-honouring than others. Sometimes we can only really know in hindsight if we made the best choice possible in that moment. At the time of decision-making, we only really have our internal wisdom to rely upon. And that is all that we need.

Don’t punish or traumatise yourself with possible choices. Just making a choice will set things in motion. The best way to catalyse the situation you are in and bring about healing change, stimulate your creative juices and find a more inspired, energised and enjoyable approach to your life, is to just make a choice based on what you feel right now. Not based on anyone else’s feelings. Just yours. So ask yourself – what do I feel right now? And go from there.

GOING BEYOND NORMAL

On the path of life there are deciding moments where we can choose to go with the mainstream or we can dare to take a bolder, more authentic and trusting way – even if it seems riskier or less safe. To rely solely on logic and science, without incorporating the mysterious and magical is a recipe for an existence that is far too dry! The sacred rebel within our hearts will always choose a juicer approach to life. You are currently approaching such a choice point. You could say that the choice is about balance. It is less about choosing to honour either art or science, gardening or architecture, and more about integrating all approaches so that you enhance rather than hinder your life journey.

There is a time and a place for logic, strategy, planning and measurable outcomes. These are not bad tools to have but we must be vigilant not to worship them or allow them to quash or less rational, but equally valuable decision-making tools: intuition, feelings and those things you know, without knowing how you know them! The flowing, inspirational energy of the heart may have no conceivable basis in logic or reason and still be uncannily accurate. To remain rebellious we must not sacrifice the art of emotion, instinct, passion and intuition, for the science of logic and strict planning!

You are being asked to stay open to the intuitive approach in your life, your work, your creativity as well as in your spiritual journey. The intuitive approach can be likened to the method of a gardener or an artist. There is a sense of what might work where and a loose or even a detailed plan, but how the plan is carried out will depend on and respond to the flow off its surroundings. There is no need to control the situation but rather a desire to nurture an idea to fruition.

You are moving outside of the plan! You are living on the border of what is socially accepted. This is good. This is fringe-dwelling freedom. Others might not see this about you straight away as you seem pretty normal but that secret eccentric streak is just waiting to show itself. And, maybe you are an out and proud fringe dweller, completely comfortable with this way of being. Either way, you have a chance to live from the heart more deeply and expressively than ever before. You need to realise that this is a legitimate, empowered and creative way to live that honours all of who you are. You can give up forcing or squashing yourself down into a very limited set of so called desirable qualities like intellect and control. It’s time to get a bit wild and let nature take its course.

What a glorious reading! How did it feel for you? There is lots to perk at this time with both of the different energies of June, tapping into your ancestral line for support, New Moon and Summer Solstice next week. Holy Hannah! Don’t get overwhelmed, don’t avoid either. Just relax and ask for guidance and support. Two things, firstly, thank you all so much for your lovely emails and comments, I really appreciate them all and the sharing of stories. Secondly, the reading will be coming out on Tuesday of next week, as I am driving for 12 hours on Monday. This will be a lovely Summer Solstice reading and there will be an idea for ritual to help you really hook into this wonderful energy. So do make sure you are signed up for this as you won’t want to miss it. Have a fabulous week and remember to lean back into the guidance that is always there for you. Huge hugs and squeezes! (Oh yes and yummy choccie biccies with hot tea). See you on Tuesday next week.

Mother’s Day, New Moon, Frogs and Hot Weather!

Jenny Heston · 2:00 pm ·

Happy glorious, magnificent, magickal Monday delicious lovely! Did you have a stupendous week? Did you take a little time to reflect on what re-aligning your values looks like? I spent Friday off the grid so to speak, no cell coverage and fully immersed in exploring the glorious outdoors, grizzly bear watching, hiking, laying in the middle of an Alpine meadow where the only thing that could be heard was the whisper of the breeze, birds and frog song from the nearby lake. The weather was sunny and hot which helped make it even more divine than I thought possible. Taking this time allowed me to really create the space and time to just breath in more of what I want in my life and to explore what that would mean and really aligning my values pertaining to life and work to this new creation. By the time I got home even though I had only been gone for 14 hours, it felt like I had been on a 3 day hiatus. Highly recommend it!

Mother’s Day was fabulous as a few female mumma friends and I went for a glorious explore through snow, forest, overflowing creeks and hot meadows where we encountered at least 400 tiny little frogs hopping about! Lol, it was very tricky walking for a bit as we most certainly didn’t want to step on them. My kids have a great tradition of getting me tons and tons of plants for my planters, unusual plants for the garden and very Dr. Seuss like plants that make me giggle. So when I got back from my hike they gifted me all these glorious plants, bags of dirt and a gargoyle and then for the rest of the day they took care of any household chores and made dinner and left me to potter and pootle. I love it! Best gift ever and dinner was amazing – homemade sushi which I could happily eat fairly much daily. Ahhh, I felt very blessed and treasured.

We have a New Moon in Taurus on Tuesday and this one comes will a very strong and robust energy that we would normally associate with an eclipse and is a great marker for change. “This new moon is both difficult and exalted with potential for great inspiration that comes with the freedom you may experience following challenging choices you have made or are in the process of making.

While stepping forward into new territory through your choices and realigning values, it is also important to bring in the quality of beauty and inspiration into the equation. Nurture yourselves in some way and have some fun despite the chaos that you may feel around you. It cannot be focused hard work all of the time. You will reap many more benefits if you take some time to smell the roses along the way and do something for yourself that represents self-care with a bit of luxury like going to a fine restaurant for a meal or treating yourself to a massage. And if you are in the process of purging the old, bring in something new that is an upgrade in the area of beauty and inspiration.”

So take some time on Tuesday to really examine the New Moon wishes you want to make and set the intention of beauty and inspiration as you make them.

Okey, dokey – now let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

Interesting to see that the cards that were most adamant about showing up for this reading are The Lightworker Oracle. At first I thought no, it should be the Earth Warriors, but Spirit was pretty darn clear that it was going to be the Lightworkers. When I asked the crystals who wanted to come participate they guided me to use something different. So this week we have a shell, a wooden heart and a bear tooth (no, it’s not gross). All very powerful Earth talismans which really ties in with the New Moon being in Taurus.

I have created a fun little, how shall we say it “cleansing” visualisation for you if you feel so inclined, to help you get centred, refreshed and clear. Otherwise, I invite you to put your feet flat on the floor, put your hands on your belly and slowly breathe into all the corners of your belly and feel your hands rise with the inhale and lower with the exhale. Breath this was for as long as you like and when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

DIVINE GRACE – THE LAW OF EFFICIENCY

It is time your life became easier. It is time for you to walk the way of divine grace with trust, simplicity and acceptance. You do not have to try to make things happen. You can gracefully act without attachment and trust that all will be as it is meant to be. Surrender your struggles, now, as you allow life to serve you with love and kindness. This is the most efficient use of your energy and will lead to the best results.

The Law of Efficiency encourages us to work smarter, rather than always working harder. It is like learning to allow a wave to carry you to shore, rather than swimming the entire way with your own efforts alone – or even against the current, which would make the journey even harder. It is like planting a seed at the right time so nature will help it bloom in the spring, rather than planting it during the dead of winter, when it takes a lot of effort to keep it alive – and even then it may not survive.

To hitch your wagon to the Universe in this way, you need to learn to listen. This means tuning in to what feels right or wrong at any given time. Sometimes, you will want to push forward, yet your intuitive knowing will guide you to rest. Sometimes, you will want to hide from a challenge – and yet know in your bones it is time to step up and shine with boldness, despite the fear you may feel.

The Law of Efficiency is also sometimes known as the path of least resistance. We must find strength that comes from letting go and trusting that the Universe knows what it is doing! Trust now. Trust that all will come in time.

MASTER HEALING

As you meditate, remain true to what inspires your heart and commit to your spiritual path, you become an increasingly powerful healer. You are here to live your own life, to be true to what genuinely moves you. The unconditionally loving guide and Ascended Master Serapis Bey comes to you now with a blessing of master healing to further your success on your path.

The Master Serapis Bey is a beloved guide for those who feel a strong soul connection to ancient Egypt, for healers who are developing their own modalities, and those who love to work with high frequency concepts. He also assists with the translation of spiritual inspiration into practical worldly plans. He comes to confirm that the ascended masters are aware of you. You are an integral part of a powerful spiritual team that has taken physical incarnation to help awaken consciousness into love.

Tune into your heart. What do you love enough to overcome any obstacle to attain it? What motivates and inspires you? Not what seems possible or practical, but what is authentic? We are most powerful when we serve authentically from the heart.

When we are willing to be who we are, the Universe can more easily guide us to fulfil our destinies. Serapis Bey will help you see yourself truthfully. You may gain feedback from others that helps you understand the value of what you share. Or you may simply find it easier to view yourself objectively, with a compassionate, appreciative and discerning inner eye. As you learn and accept who you are, you become a more powerful vibration for masters to put to use in the plan of love. If you ask for something, are are willing to go through the process required to have that come to life, it will happen for you. The Universe is that generous, unconditionally supportive and loving of you. It will provide you will all that you need to manifest your dreams, desires and destiny.

KARMIC CLEARING

You are fast outgrowing level of consciousness to which are attached particular wounds, issues and struggles. As you outgrow that consciousness, these issues will release their grip on you. You are receiving divine notice that karmic clearing is taking place, through a combination of your own efforts and spiritual grace from the heart of the Divine. It is time for an old wound to be released, once and for all.

Karma is not punishment. Karma is essentially our soul’s lesson plan for this lifetime, carried over from past lifetimes. It is the way we grow and develop as a soul, sometimes through challenges and sometimes through blessings.

Our “positive” karma is seen in the skills and talents we have mastered over many lifetimes. Also, when opportunities flow easily and healing happens swiftly, there is a sense of positive karma, an easy grace that effortlessly takes place in your life. This is what happens when we are clear enough of our own past pain to have little resistance between us and the natural flow of life. More challenging karma is revealed in the lessons we are still learning. These usually appear in the guise of painful circumstances or reactions that repeat themselves in our lives. The stronger the soul, the more challenging the lesson it is willing to master this lifetime. When you are working through big challenges, it is often a sign that you are on an advanced spiritual path.

We clear karma by learning to trust and relax, by choosing not to punish ourselves with shame, guilt, fear or unworthiness, by continuing to balance our efforts with a surrender into divine grace. We take responsibility for our own healing – doing all that we can – and trusting that the Universe will lovingly and effectively handle everything else so that we can progress and succeed.

So glorious lovely, wishing you a wonderful week and delicious New Moon wishes! Remember to invite in beauty, ease and effortlessness and that sense of childlike play which rejuvenates and refreshes! There will not be a reading next week as it is a long weekend here and I plan to most certainly potter, play, plant and ponder (how was that for alliteration?) See you in two weeks (and remember to laugh, where sun screen, look for faeries and eat yummy food).

New Moon

11 is the number of Illumination
