Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Manifesting, Majestic, Mesmerising, Mysterious, Memorable Monday!  How are you on this glorious day?

So good to be back!  It feels like it has been forever since we last connected, but in fact it has only been two weeks!  How was your Easter?  Did you get out and play, hunt for choccie eggs and do something fun?  I hope so!  

Our Global Healing Circle was amazing, we raised funds that were donated to the Ukraine and the glorious emails sharing your Spirit Animal Guide and Heart Crystal descriptions were amazing.  Thank you to all who participated.  If you would like access to the amazing guided visualisation that was created for that special day, and can be activated at any time.  You can still access it Here.  

Before we chat about the upcoming Eclipse, let’s talk about Beltane, which occurs on May 1st.  

I love Beltane, I love it because it is fiery, passionate, intentional and produces results!  I especially love it as it’s the time when the veil between this Earth and the Fae is exceptionally thin.  So Magick abounds, and to help you tap into this amazing energy I have a FREE GIFT for you (read on)!

Beltane is thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar.  Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

Beltane is the halfway point between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice, making it easy to see why Beltane is typically associated with creativity, prosperity, hope, fertility, and sexuality.

The Beltane fires of yore were a time of revelry, pairing and celebrating fertility (there were lots of babies born 9 months after the celebrations!)  Also, cattle would be led between two fires for protection and to encourage a strong, fertile herd.  Holy wells were visited and feasts were had.  Rowan was often used in Beltane festivals as it’s a tree of protection and healing. Branches of Rowan were placed as protection over the doors of houses and barns at Beltane to protect from increased Faery activity as they woke from their winter slumber.  (As they can be rather cheeky!)

Sprigs were worn for protection also. Rowan berries have a tiny five-pointed star on the bottom reminiscent of the pentagram.

So all in all a great time to celebrate, set intentions, fertilise either self or ideas and have a grand jolly time and invite the Fae to support you!  

This is where your wonderful Free Gift of the Beautiful Beltane Book will guide you, support you and inspire you to deepen into this rich potent energy.

Think about those wee seeds of intention that you planted at Spring Equinox, they are starting to push their way up towards the sun.

But I guess the question some people have is – “Why bother marking the day?”  Good question, and my answer would be because it connects you to something bigger, older and deeper than our modern day to day.  

I love the way Donna Henes puts it:-  Ceremonial observance adds lucid layers — depth, dimension, drama and distinction — to our lives, making the ordinary seem special, and the special, extraordinary. Through the practice of ritual we are privileged to experience ourselves as prepared, present, passionate, principled and potent. When we set aside the quality time and claim the psychic space for ceremony, when we assume the authority to do so, we are able to transform our perceptions, our perspectives, our experiences, and in the process, our reality.

When we live in alignment with the seasons, our souls unfurl and flourish.  We are more connected to our intuition, our magick, each other and the earth.  

We walk a sacred path everyday.  

Which totally ties in with the Eclipse on the Taurus New Moon the day before!

“On April 30th, the Moon will Eclipse the Sun giving us the first Solar Eclipse of the year.

Solar Eclipses always fall on a New Moon, and while this is only a Partial Solar Eclipse, it is still ultra-potent and carries the weight of a hundred New Moons!

New Moons always represent new beginnings, so this Eclipse is likely to open doors, open windows, and draw entirely new paths for us in the cosmic skies.

The keyword for this April Solar Eclipse is opportunity, so if there is something you want, this is your cosmic invitation to connect with your heart’s desire and see what flies in.

While New Moons are typically powerful moments in the month for manifestation work, under a Solar Eclipse it is actually better to go with the flow and trust what the Universe brings our way.

Eclipses activate our soul contract and tend to bring fated events that help us get to the next chapter of our spiritual evolution.

Eclipses can always take us by surprise, but it is worthwhile remembering that they always put us where we need to be, even if it doesn’t feel like it at first! In fact, Eclipses can accelerate our timeline, bringing forward things that were ultimately inevitable. Things can happen quickly under an Eclipse!”

So are you paying attention?  Do you see all this potential energy to work with?

To support you with all of this I am gifting you the glorious Beautiful Beltane Book (fondly referred to as BBB), filled with lore, rituals and ways for you to embrace this glorious energy.  

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading!  When I went and asked which cards wanted to come out.  The cards that wiggled and jiggled to come and guide this week are the glorious Isis Oracle.  

Have you ever asked who Isis is? Goddess of the Skies, Magick and Wisdom are just a few of the titles she is given.  Let me take a moment to introduce you to this lovely deck – “You are a powerful Soul and you are awakening.  Your thoughts, feelings and inner world is changing, and so too is your outer world.  When a Soul is growing in power and strength, it can benefit from guidance to help make the path into a new way of being in the world that much easier.  Isis offers Her wisdom and guidance to you to assist you at this time of spiritual growth and transition.  She loves you, and wants you to shine and be your radiant self, filled with power and wisdom.”

Okay, take a moment to come back into your body, allow your shoulders to nestle down your spine and just breathe long and deep.  When you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper at you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

PORTAL OF LIGHT

She Glides on Wings through Time and Space.

It is only this physical reality that is bound by time and space.  You are a being who is conscious on levels beyond the physical world.  You are guided to work with your healing powers beyond the confines of time and space and to allow your sense of Self to expand.  It is safe for you to do this now.  You will not become ungrounded through such spiritual growth.  You are not leaving your earthly awareness, you are instead adding to it.

You are growing in power and awareness.  You have had breakthrough insights where you realise that you are not who you thought you were, you are in fact a much vaster being.  Sometimes this was shocking and uncomfortable, and difficult to accept.  At other times it was gentle and made much sense to you.  You are learning to integrate this awareness of your vast Self into your life.  The practical consequences of doing so are extraordinary – to live with less and less fear and insecurity, to become more detached and more passionate, more loving and less demanding, to need less and receive more, to feel more joy and exert less force to attain it…..Such wonderful gifts await you!

Isis guides you to powers and abilities to heal that are beyond time and space.  It starts with the realisation that what has happened in the past has power over you only to the extent that you allow it.  The portal of light is being opened to you now to travel through time and space to release the past, to open up to a bright future and to call for more power in the present moment.  

SCALES OF BALANCE

Ancient Tantra of the Soul

You are in the process of sacred relationship healing of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminineenergies within your own Soul.  This is the advanced spiritual path of Tantra.  It is the connection of the body and Soul.  The effect of this inner divine relationship healing is genuine enlightenment of the mind and the body.  The body becomes a living sacred temple of light, energy and wild aliveness.  This embodiment can be experienced in movement, in deep stillness, in vitality and in quietness.  

You are a Tantrika, a sacred priest/priestess of the Tantric arts.  Some people mistakenly believe that Tantra is simply about sexuality, but it is in truth the journey of the Soul to bring masculine and feminine polarities into wholeness, love, unity and empowerment – to learn to be the enlightened path in every element of your being.  This is Soul-building work that is in great service to the spiritual healing and evolution of humanity, which is a deep need of those such as yourself.

You are guided to accept this healing through learning to balance the masculine and feminine energies within yourself and your relationships with others.  Balancing give and take, directing and flowing, play and solitude are ways to do this now.  Learning to feel as comfortable as possiblewith your sexual and spiritual nature, seeing how they can complement rather than compete with each other is helpful too.  Connection with the body is the most powerful form of healing for the feminine energy as it holds the secrets to Divine Feminine wisdom.  

You are encouraged to explore Divine Maculine and Feminine healing with yourself specifically at this time.  This may involve forgiveness of past relationships with significant males or females in your life.  It may also require an adjustment of softening to allow in feminine wisdom, or cutting out some distraction or draining situations that minimise your sense of your own power and capacity.  

MAGICK AND RITUAL

Crafting Sacred Practice

Effects in the external world can be created through inner practice.  Magick and Ritual can support your Divine Path now in the physical world and you are encouraged to enhance your power with regular practice.  The results that you experience will encourage you to continue with the practice as you grow in power, grace, love, ability and wisdom, and apply your inner beauty to transform your outer world.

For us to grow empowered and potent on the Path of Ancient Feminine Power we need to honour our knowing and being and cultivate sacred practice.  Sacred practice becomes the habit of growing our spiritual power and consciousness.  Like a garden needing regular care and watering to blossom and flourish, our inner garden of the Soul, where our creativity, joy, spiritual gifts and bliss bubble away, also needs regular attention.  Coming to our practice takes strength and inner will – even though it can feel amazing, we still have to wake up, set aside time and discipline ourselves to show up for our own inner growth.  We will reap the benefits when we do, but we must allow ourselves to fall in love with our practice, to craft something that really speaks to us, so that we want to do it.  The desire and the discipline together help us engage with our practice regularly and we can grow so fast it can be quite shocking!

You have great power and wisdom within you, but you need to provide channels for it to flow and be active and empowered in your physical life.  Sacred Practice is such a channel.  Without these channels, the ego is left to create on its own which is not much fun at all!  The ego believes in fear and separation and no matter how much it may want to feel love, bliss, connection, joy and fulfilment, it really cannot do it without your spiritual presence in life.  Ritual and Magick, as a form of sacred practice, are recommended for you as a way to bring more spiritual presence into your waking life, to heal and support the ego as you learn to create a life that feels better and brings you and others more fulfilment.

What a delicious reading!  Talk about the perfect energies to go along with Beltane, magick  and the fiery passion!  Don’t forget to receive your Beautiful Beltane Book.  Wishing you a stupendous, fertile, abundant week filled with flowers, song, and laughter.  Huge hugs and squeezes!  See you next week!

Finding Your Centre in Dark Times and How the New Moon can Help You.

Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Melancholy, Majestical, Maddening, Merry, Manifesting Monday!  

It’s the last Monday of February, this month has flown by fast, unlike January!

If you have worked with me, you will know that I am blunt, speak the truth as I am told it, and am also highly compassionate.  So you ready to go a bit deeper?  As quite frankly “fluffy” conversations bore the snot out of me.

So let me ask.  How are you doing?  I mean really doing? What’s happening in your body?  Your energy field?  Your heart and soul?

Do you feel that the world is going to hell in a handbasket?  Because let’s be honest we are still in the middle of a massive pandemic and I know quite a few people who are struggling with the choices of what to do around that, or the effects of it. 

We are advised “everything is going back to normal”, but let’s be honest – WTF is normal right now?  (Normal is a delicious palette to create something better in my opinion).

And now we have Russia invading Ukraine!

I will be honest, when that happened last week my heart hurt and there was a sense of really, WTF!  I’m sure you share the heaviness in my heart at what’s happening in Ukraine and in so many places around the world. We humans know how to make a mess, don’t we?  As always, whenever I feel powerless I redouble my efforts to put my work out into the world to help people live more empowered lives so they can pass on that healing. 

Quite a few of my clients and friends shared all the feelings they are having at the moment.  Ranging from anger, fear, grief, confusion, overwhelm and anxiety, and ancestral memory which is in your bones and your DNA.

A  few of them wanted to normalise all of those feelings and stuff them into a box and put them in the bottom of the closet. All of which I totally understand.  

But let me ask, what do you do when things flood up like that and knock you sideways? When things feel dark and not comfortable?

It’s normal to dive into the fight, flight, freeze response, or more commonly the overwhelm, shut down and tune everything out.  Yeah, those work for a wee bit, but they aren’t the solution.

More than ever this is the time to ground, to feel your feet on the earth and release all the sticky, icky bits down to turn into cosmic compost.  This is the time to connect to a daily practice that nourishes and supports you – whether that is prayer, meditation, journaling, walking in nature.  It’s the time to reconnect to your light.  That gorgeous spark inside you that burns strong and true.  

This is the time to be gentle with yourself and not try and “logic” your way out of the feelings, but do things that bring you joy and allow that dis-quiet and dis-ease to flow through you.   And to breathe into them and allow them to be transmuted in the flame of your inner light.  

When we stand with our feet on the earth, grounded, heart up and open, realise we are all in this together and welcome in support, magick and miracles happen. 

Because remember – we are all interdependent and interconnected.  

We are all part of a Divine EcoSystem and Community.  

And when you feel like you have no control over what is happening around you, remember the Serenity Prayer.  “Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference.”

This all ties into the energy of the New Moon in Pisces that happens on March 2nd.  

“At the time of the New Moon the sky goes dark, not even a small crescent of the Moon can yet be seen. Darkness has always been synonymous with the creative feminine that lives within all of us. It is in the darkness that creative energy is at its highest. It is in the darkness that we often feel safe enough to become our true selves and where our deepest emotions are often set free.

Under the March 2nd Pisces New Moon, we may be feeling close to the darkness. We may find ourselves journeying through the shadows, or coming face to face with whatever has been dwelling in the hidden corners of our heart, mind, and soul.

It is easy to be afraid of the dark as it can often stir things that we don’t wish to confront. But this confrontation is often necessary to lead a richer and fuller life. This confrontation is often necessary to discover ourselves on a deeper level and to move past our blocks and barriers.

There is a strength that can be found when we allow ourselves to sit in the dark. Just think of the seed. As it is submerged into the dark soil, it really has just been positioned to grow and flourish into something new and grand. The same can be said for us.

Darkness is also the foundation for the magical energies of creation and manifestation. It is in the darkness that energy can be morphed into something. It is in the darkness that new life takes hold.

Under the energies of the March New Moon, we may feel gently guided to sit with the darkness within. This may require us to confront something deeper, or allow us to connect with the energy of magic and creation.”

There is a strong emphasis under this March 2022 Pisces New Moon to take the time to think about our past and what we can learn, or what we need to move on from.

So when I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide and share this week, The Earth Warriors Oracle stepped up front and centre, there was no doubt.  So if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them.  They are frigging perfect for this time!  

“Earth Warriors are the healers and transformational leaders for a more beautiful world.  They destabilise the status quo with their innovative attitude and higher consciousness, defying convention and living from the heart…….they seek love as their leader and wisdom as their guide…..they know what is true in their own hearts, and they refuse to be conditioned by mass consciousness into fear, apathy, complacency or overwhelm and despair. 

There is a river flowing now very fast.  It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid.  They will try to hold on to the shore.  They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly.  Know the river has its destination.  The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water.  And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate.  At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves.  For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.  The time for the lone wolf is over.  Gather yourselves!  Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary.  All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.  We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

Phew!  Okay my gorgeous bean, I’ve chuntered on enough (if you’ve read this far).  Let’s crack on with the reading.  

Take a big exhale out through your mouth, let that old energy just flow out of your body.  Then a glorious slow inhale through your nose, long and deep – let it fill all the cracks and crevices within you with cooling, soothing darkness.  Then exhale with a sigh.  Keep breathing this way as you invite into your mind’s eye the sense of release and the sense of a glorious tapestry that is a web connecting us all together.  Let this whisper into the cracks and crevices in your being and when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tickle at the edges of your mind.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see, shall we?

CIRCLE CROSS OF TENAN

Rare Intersection of Heaven and Earth

Your plans and purpose are in alignment with greater cosmic forces.  Whether you see it coming or not, things will fall into place and what you have been working towards will come to fruition.  A rare intersection of heaven and earth will result in a precious manifestation of grace.  The Divine shall correct a situation that is in need of realignment.  Fear not.  Pray boldly and be faithful.  All is well.

Your soul is a facilitator of sacred union between the spiritual realms and the earthly worlds.  Whether you do this as an artist, a healer, an activist, a priestess or shaman or in some other way, honour your path and your purpose.  Take care of yourself and prioritise your spiritual life according to the practices and methods that help you remain open, connected and grounded, with your heart open to Great Spirit and moved by love for our earth.

There are times when heaven and earth align and the power unleashed is considerable.  People rally and situations fall into place.  As if by a miracle, patience, persistence, effort and energy finally come together and a creation of tangible goodness takes shape in the world.  It can be unexpected.  You may even have almost given up hope.  Then suddenly, everything comes together. 

The Circle Cross of Tenan is a sign of such a happening in your world, a moment of powerful grace, where Spirit makes its presence felt upon the earth.  

ALAKOA

Spirit of the Warrior

Though you yearn for peace, you recognise that, without truth, genuine peace can never be.  Even if it triggers an upheaval of transformation, the need to set things right is strong in you.  This is the inner drive of the spiritual warrior, the compelling soul need to uphold truth, goodness and justice.  You will fight for these things because that is your way, Spirit Warrior.  Trust, see and feel the positive impact that you are making in the world.  You are relentless and the Divine is within you.  

Do not give up.  If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart and your heart in awareness of what it is that is inspiring you.  Do you feel alone on your quest?  Look for the legions of beings in spirit and upon the earth that fight alongside you, fearless and ferocious with love.  Be uplifted by your fellow Spirit Warriors, beloved one.  Feel the joy of their love and unity with you.  You have access to the divine power that conquers any obstacle, wins every battle, and secures every victory.

The Spirit Warrior doesn’t have a violent soul, but does have a powerful energy and a great need to put that energy to good use as an effective action-oriented presence for higher consciousness on earth.  The Spirit Warrior within you needs to feel that your life is dedicated to something meaningful and magnificent, to witness the positive difference that you are creating through your actions.  Don’t allow others to stop you from unleashing this beautiful divine masculine spirit power in your mind, your soul and our world.  We need you!!

AMUATA

Sage of Higher Knowledge

Seek what feels true, even beyond the logical.  If something doesn’t feel right, challenge it and dig deeper.  Educate and inform yourself on matters of importance to you.  Trust tat your mind is strong and bright enough to do this.  Enhance your self-esteem by researching for information and trusting your intuition to help you discern what is useful and true.  Have faith in your own mental abilities.  If others have criticised you or made you feel inadequate in understanding, cast that off as belonging to the past and not relevant to you now.  You will become immune to manipulation by others, who may be convincing but not necessarily accurate or helpful.  Trust the power of your mind to receive and recognise the answers that you need.  You will find your way.  

Test all opinions, advice, research and alleged facts according to your own intuition and instinct.  Select that which is helpful for you and notice that which is best case aside, even if just for a time.  Seek information and assistance from those that you feel can assist you – and yet place no human advisor above the ultimate, divine authority, which will guide you on how to proceed through a deep inner knowing.  There is always new knowledge beyond existing boundaries of thought.  We simply need to be open and willing to receive it with patience, discernment and trust in the greater guiding power.  

An answer is coming, an important piece of information, and that when you are centred in your heart you will recognise that for what it is and and know how to proceed  If you have ever been put down or judged as not being clever enough, or if your intellect has been worshipped and encouraged at the expense of the intuitions of your heart.  There are many ways of knowing, and we are all unique in our particular combinations of intellect, instinct, intuition and insight.  You have been created exactly as you were meant to be for sacred purpose.  The judgement of others – for better or worse – are meaningless.  

What matters is that you find your own best way of sensing truth, honouring when something doesn’t feel right and moving forward when something rings true.  

Wow!  I don’t know about you, but that was an amazing reading.  So delicious one, take this gorgeous reading and energy with you as you walk your path this week.  Remember to practice loving kindness and a neutral mind.  Huge hugs and squeezes and remember to breathe into that glorious heart space! Oh and for all those who have asked if there is going to be a guide for Equinox, you bet! It will come out later this week.

Imbolc, New Moon and Chinese New Year!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Meaningful, Miraculous, Manifesting Monday!

How are you delicious lovely?  It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a month!  But thank you so much for all your wonderful emails, sharing your stories, and asking if the readings were coming back.  They were all read and greatly appreciated!

I don’t know about you but January has been playing with time in weird ways.  One moment it feels as if it was zipping by, and the next moment it felt as if it was dragging on for nearly a year!  (Most discombobulating!)

Tomorrow (February 1st) brings us Imbolc, a New Moon and Chinese New Year, lots of delicious energy to invite you to gently awaken and plant new seeds, and to support you with this I have created a gift for you!  (Think of it as a spiritual gardening guide lol).  

And I want you to ask yourself  – what are your seeds going to be?

What is your Truth?  What do you Desire?  (This isn’t about what your mind says you “should do”, it’s about what your heart and soul are calling you to do).  Those are two powerful questions to ask yourself and then listen to the whispers that arise.  

I love the energy of Imbolc, it’s gentle, inviting and nurturing.  It’s a time of AWAKENING.

Not a TO DO Awaken, but a gentle stirring, a slight flexing and a big stretch. 

From the hibernation of Winter we oh so gently move into the hope of a spring to come, something new and delightful.  From the dark cocoon, we peek to see if things have changed.  

Spiritually, this is a time of new life coming into manifestation. We may only be seeing the tiniest hints of life above the surface but things are really beginning to stir in the darkness.

So come back to the questions – What is Your Truth?  What do you Desire?

It occurred to me the other day that I haven’t written about Imbolc in depth before and so that got things perking and I created a gift for you!

I have named her Fabulous Imbolc (fondly referred to as FI, in honour of my amazing big sister).  

FI will walk you through this delicious energy, invite you to awaken and guide you with a very easy ritual to allow the seeds of your soul to come to life.  I hope you enjoy it.  

Imbolc Blessings to you gorgeous one.  

May the sun shine on your face, your desires rise to the surface and the seeds that you dream into being flourish throughout the year.  

Imbolc also ties into the New Moon energy that we have.  This is the New Moon that welcomes in a new Lunar Year (Year of the Tiger!)  

This is a time illumination – the illumination that comes with waking up. But this illumination still has a very sleepy quality about it. And your consciousness is still very connected to spirit right now. Your dreams, your subconscious, Spirit – these are all really accessible this month.

Being open to all this spiritual energy can bring up a lot of intense emotion. This is a month of blustery winds & they’re swirling all kinds of things up for us this month.

It may feel really chaotic & out of balance.

Remember to be so gentle with yourself this month. Just observe whatever emotions are coming up for you. Try to ride the wave of whatever changes you are facing.  

“If you want to make some long-term commitments in your life, this New Moon would be the perfect time to set some intentions. Then after Mercury stations direct, that would be the perfect time to take action on them.”

Do you see the theme that is running through all of these events?  I hope so!

Okay, I have chuntered on long enough (if you managed to read this far lol), so let’s crack on with the reading.  

So please let me introduce you to your new guides – Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle.

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth.  Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world.  We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK.  Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense.  She wants so much more for you.  She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny.  She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart.  She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you.  You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true.  There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed.  Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity.  She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “ 

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time.  Woosah!

Okay gorgeous one.  Settle, just breathe yourself here into this moment.  Breathe long and deep and allow the whispers of your soul to come to the surface.  What is your Truth?  What do you Desire?  Then, when you’re ready, pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go meet your glorious guides!

FREAKING BEAUTIFUL

You are here to march to your own beat.  You can be happy and free, whether the world looks at you with awe, admiration, confusion or love – or all of these at once.

Normal is not for you.  Don’t be afraid of that!  Deep down you are the good kind of crazy, an individual.  You would never be happy trying to be the same as everyone else!  You have an inner sense of justice and a need to question authority when it doesn’t earn your respect.  This may make some people uncomfortable, whilst it inspires others to think for themselves and not automatically assume that everything they are told is correct.  We need more of this in our world!

You are a free thinker with a different point of view to most people.  This isn’t a sign that something is wrong with you, but a sign of something special – a gift to see and express things differently.  The world needs much more of that too!

Your weird streak is a proverbial breath of fresh air, preventing unimaginative collapse into the boredom of sameness.  It also makes you a divine poster child for others who want to break free from conformity and unapologetically be truly themselves.  It means that you get to dream up your own destiny, and you don’t have to worry about what anyone else has to say about it.  The Universe will support you every step of the way – because it so enjoys you just being you!  

CREATRIX

Your soul is a divine creative fire.  She wants to break free from what has been and give life to something new.  You may experience this as feelings of restlessness, of being confined or as a craving for something more that you cannot quite articulate.  Your soul doesn’t want you to push that new life away.  She wants you to embrace it.  When you let go of your inhibitions and freely express yourself, stagnant situations will be cleared out by the powerful release of your energy, which creates openness.  Let  your inner artist  out to play in whatever way feels fun, raw and honest for you.  It’s time to experience something new.  

You have the need and the ability for creative self expression.  Whether it’s your look, your room, your art, your altar, your journal or your life, you need to be free to let the inspiration within find a way to take shape in the world.  Some ideas will come together beautifully, straight away, and some will need to be revised or released completely, until you feel satisfied by the expression.

Your creativity is most powerful and healing when it is true.  It is not about someone else getting it, or reaching some imaginary standard of perfection or making a million dollars.  The Universe has a beautiful plan for your life.  When we honestly and creatively express ourselves, we are playing with the Universe and helping that beautiful plan to unfold.  

You know that the world created from our hearts is more valuable, beautiful and real than any world created from fear.  Creativity is such a gift; it is worth the price of being different and not always being understood.  You are an inspiration.  Don’t hide your creative fire away.  Let it burn and light up the world.  

ON YOUR OWN TERMS

You are not the person you once were.  You know it, but others might not always be ready to let the old you go so easily.  Do not allow yourself to be shoved back into patterns of behaviour that are not true to who you are now.  You have worked hard to grow and become this new self.  Believe that she is more real than the old you, even if she is less familiar to others (and maybe even to you) at this stage.

All that will change, and what is new now will become familiar and easy for you to sustain in the near future.  Be stubborn in a good way whilst you – and others around you – come to realise that the new you is the real you.  

Others may offer their input, but when it comes down to it, it is you alone making your life decisions.  Your choice may once have been to meet the expectations and honour the opinions of other people – but you are aware now that the best choices for you actually honour your own heart, irrespective of whether others understand your reasons or feelings.

You might have to practice not feeling guilty or selfish about choosing to live your life in the way that suits your soul.  You might have to be patient with those around you who need some time to get out of the habit of expecting you to do as you are told.  It may take some time for them to adjust to the way you are now, behaving and thinking based on your own inner guidance.

You now know that you don’t have to wait for permission.  You get to choose how you want to feel, how you want to live, and who you want to be.  You’re ready for the responsibility and sweet reward of living your life on your own terms.  

Woosah!  How fantabulous!  So gorgeous one, please claim your free gift of Fabulous Imbolc, dance with your soul and your magic, allowing your seeds to come to light.  Remind yourself  how fantabulous you are and how so very loved you are.  Wishing you a stupendous week, be kind to yourself, be gentle with yourself and in the way that fits for you – Awaken – we need your light.  Big hugs and squeezes! 

Birthday Month! Time For a New Story and Celebrations!!

· ·

Happy Melodious, Musical, Magickal, Miraculous, Magnetic, Majestic, Manifesting Monday!  I know I said there wouldn’t be a reading this week, with it being a long weekend – but apparently my guides had a different idea!  So who am I to say no, when they are uber clear (envision Doc Martin boots and a black tutu).

This is my birthday month and I am committed to celebrating it full out, creating different things, playing, and really revelling in the month (and there are going to be all sorts of gifts and things for you as well!).  

Why?  

I love September (I know for some that sounds weird), but I love the impending Fall, it’s a time of harvest, a gathering together.  The mornings are crisper, the days are still warm, but there is that sense of change.  Kids are going back to school, starting a new class and making new friends.  The lazy, hazy days of summer are winding down and there is a shift in the energy that invites us to try something new (even if you aren’t school age) and to be willing to release the old that may be a tad too tight (like a kids running shoes).  

There is also a sense of melancholy for some people when Fall starts to whisper with her crisp breath.  The leaves are going to change and then drop from the tree and the days are most certainly getting shorter – and for some this can feel uncomfortable and lonely.  Which I can totally appreciate.  But it doesn’t need to……

Fall Equinox is almost here (and I love this celebration).  It is known as Mabon and is the second harvest. This festival is a time to look at the seeds that you sowed in the Spring, on every level, and reflect on how they have manifested.  Most crops are in and the fields are beginning to look brown and are slowly going to sleep for the winter (unless they are filled with gorgeous orange pumpkins).  This is a time to celebrate the abundance and the harvest, as well as to make plans for the winter and to create community.  But we will explore that more over the next couple of weeks. 

The energy of September (according to the ever amazing Lena), is TIME FOR A NEW STORY.   Remember in August was MANAGING THE SHI(F)T and  July was TWO STEPS FORWARD AND ONE STEP FOOT BACK.  

As Lena shares:-  “We are certainly tired of the old one and feeling restless, irritated and ready to start something new. The future, however, is still intangible and unclear. We find ourselves often floating around in the shadows, making several much-needed trips back into the underworld to deal with karma, clear our past and release the attachments to old ways. September is not an easy month as we navigate the balance between what is pulling us back into recapitulation versus what is being offered as an opportunity to rewrite our story. It will do you no good to “wait it out”. The demands of this time require an interactive relationship between yourself and your story. In order to change it, you will need to step up your relationship with spirit, your guides and allies, and your authentic self.

So what New Story are you willing to create?  

The first step in a new story is to let go of the old one without anger, disappointment or judgment. The more neutral you can be about what is leaving your field, the easier the process. We have come now to a place where it is near impossible to be in denial about what needs to change. There are influences that require a good look at what no longer serves as well as providing good (if not fun) opportunities to release, complete karma, and clear the decks. We are being worked by the inevitable and the quicker we all get with the program, the faster we will be able to manifest this new story. The discomfort and irritation comes from resistance to embracing responsibility for your own change. 

Only you can create a new story for yourself.

Okay, I have chuntered a ton (not a surprise), so let’s crack on with the reading.  When I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were adamant, which made me smile a lot.  If this deck is new to you please let me introduce your guides (as that is always polite).  “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.”  Re-read that last line about inspiring and urging us…… totally ties into the energy of a New Story.  

The crystals that were insistent to join are:- Lemurian Seed – healing is remembering our spiritual self and that time is an illusion of physical incarnation, showing how to move beyond all that is.  Black Snowflake Obsidian –  helps to draw emotions to the surface and to examine harmful thought patterns. A good choice for past life work, heals old karmic patterns and helps in examining harmful thought patterns. Chrysocolla – a stone of communication.   Its very essence is devoted to expression, empowerment and teaching. The serenity of its turquoise-blue color discharges negative energies, calms, and allows truth and inner wisdom to surface and be heard. 

Okay, take a moment and come back to your body.  Just breathe yourself back.  Allow in your mind’s eye the desires, goals and yearnings to flood up.  What is your New Story?  Breathe it in, welcome it in.  If you need a bit more support there is an easy and quick guided visualisation for you.

Ready to pick?

Shall we go look?

SHE WHO LAUGHS

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

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

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

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

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

THE ANCIENT

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

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

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

ASTRILD

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

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

About you is the sensation of fulfilment, of satisfaction, and for a time, you will live between the worlds while this powerful experience shakes you to the core.  And all the while, this faery being gazes into your heart, willing you to remember that not only do you love, you are worth loving.  Astrild’s cool green gaze observes the fire within you, and will remind you again and again that to love yourself, and to love another with all of your heart, is a kind of baptism, a blessing, a ritual, and a trial by fire.  

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

Wowzer, some delicious energy and guidance there!  So gorgeous one, take some time this week to think about what you want your New Story to Be, use the energy of this delicious New Moon to do some reviewing and releasing and play!  Enjoy the crispness, the smells, the beginning of the leaves changing and we will explore more of what Fall Equinox brings next week.  Have a fabulous week and huge hugs and squeezes!
