New Moon

Solstice is coming! Sagittarius New Moon Eclipse, Peace and the Plants.

Happy Moodling, Magickal, Mysterious, Magnificent, Musical, Manifesting Monday!

Solstice is coming and many of you have asked when there will be a Book of Winter Solstice (fondly referred to as BOWS). Next week at the New Moon BOWS will be available! Whoot!

I love, love, love Solstice – to me it’s that perfect balance point and the start of something new and exciting, filled with potential and possibilities and I can feel the energy of it for a few weeks before it even arrives. There is a sensation of reflection, going inwards and questioning that arrives naturally from this energy. To me this is a time where I notice those “meh” moments more and really examine my life and ask the question “Am I showing up and embodying what I am called to do?” That’s why, to me, I feel it vital to take some time out to honour this energy and work with it which in turn allows me to feel aligned. In fact I feel more balanced, connected and inspired after I have taken some time.

As the days get shorter in December, we force ourselves to get through the darkness. Now is a good season for spiritual alchemy — time to evaluate your life, and know that you’ll survive the dark times. If you’ve already put the darkness behind you, take your good fortune and share it with others. As we leave the season of late Autumn we enter the season of Winter which is brought in by Solstice (Yule). This is where we are invited to the downward spiral, the slow descent as water returns to Earth, emotion (water) coming into form (earth). The energy is descending and the light is low—this is the most inward, the most yin, part the year. Yet this is the time of year where we have the most Yang activities!

However, you can’t fool your body. When you really are tuned into your body and listen to the messages, your body often tells you things before anything or anyone else does. It wants to relax, rest, rejuvenate, replenish, create and imagine.

When my kids were little (I mean wee in age), I sent most of them to the Waldorf school. Why? Because especially in the younger years the Waldorf school encouraged creativity, curiosity, paying attention to the seasons and appreciating that we are connected to everything and that magic is everywhere. I remember a glorious book that I encountered there that depicted how as we enter winter all the little seeds, bulbs and animals would tuck up in the roots deep in the ground where Mother Earth would read them stories and sing them lullabies so they slept long and deep through the snowy, icy days until the temperatures warmed and they could stretch up towards the sun. The imagery was amazing!

Many of you have shared how the Full Moon Eclipse last Monday rocked your world! Well guess what? We have another eclipse this coming Monday on the New Moon! Are you excited lol? Now don’t panic as this Sagittarius New Moon Eclipse brings a positive, lighter, more expansive energy with it. However, we will cover that in more detail next week.

So if you remember, last week I mentioned the first light of Advent being Hope and the Stones and the Bones. This week, the second light of advent is Peace and the Plants.

The second candle of advent has been lit and in traditional religions this is the candle of Peace. So let me ask, what does Peace look like and feel like for you? Is it peace of mind? That sense of calm in you, around you, above you and below you? Feel free to share! In the Waldorf tradition the second light of Advent is the light of the plants. Roots, stem, leaf, flower, and fruit by whom we live and grow. I love the awareness this light invites, the awareness of the food we eat, the plants that heal us, the plantscape in Nature that nurtures us and soothes our souls.

Okay, with all that being said (sometimes I do chunter on!), let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to support and guide this week I was delighted to see that the White Light Oracle were super keen. Now, if these guides are new to you please let me introduce you to them.

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

What delicious guides for exploring Peace and Solstice. The crystals that wiggled and jiggled are:- Rhodonite, Moonstone and Rhyolite. Yummers!

Okay gorgeous one, settle into your body, breathe yourself back. As you gently slow down your breathing I invite you to bring up the sensation of Peace (whatever that means to you) and allow it to swirl in your mind’s eye. If you need a bit more support with Peace there’s a lovely little guided visualisation for you. Then, when you’re ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to go see?

ISHTAR’S LION GATE 888

Your heart has a heightened connection with the higher realms of consciousness and light. A blessing, empowerment and positive omen shall enter your world. Doors will open for you. Abundance and prosperity are headed your way. Take care of your heart. Ask for spiritual assistance, and it shall be granted. Something negative is going to transform into something very positive.

Ishtar is the Queen of the Night, a dark goddess of loss and letting go, but also a priestess of light, who holds the keys to renewal from suffering. She is relentless in her pursuit of the path to true inner freedom. She willingly surrenders her attachments and her identities, even separating herself temporarily from her loved ones, with such boldness and confidence that she crosses into realms where others dare not go. She experiences vulnerability, and in that state discovers deep truth.

Ishatar is the capacity of the soul to integrate our experiences. After reaching the greatest depths of suffering, she emerges and is reinstated upon her rightful throne with even greater wisdom, spiritual power and compassion. She is a guardian and symbol of resurrection. You shall rise again. Those who have felt as though their identity or any other marker of security has been torn away from them are her children. They will find their way back to peace and prosperity under her auspices. If you have been suffering, an end of the struggle is imminent.

She brings a message of a breakthrough and healing, of a significant lightening up of your life and the end of a deeply challenging cycle in your life. There is a special divine dispensation augured by Ishtar’s Lion Gate 888.

Where hope has been difficult to find, or all seems lost, the light shall return and beautiful blessings are destined to unfold in your life.

AIH SOPH AUR

A way through the struggle has already been created for you, and you are being led onto that path. Your authentic soul path may include recognition and acclaim, notable success and admiration. Be grateful, but do not be dazzled or distracted by such experiences. Focus on what connects you to your heart and grounds you in the simplicity of spiritual truth, which is the practice of love, kindness and peace. This will allow for successful progress in the material world without disturbing the sanctity of your soul.

In the mysticism of the Kabbalah, Ain Soph Aur is the first and truest light. It emerges from the absolute, which is pure emptiness, beyond all characteristics, phenomena and form. The capacity to create something from apparently nothing is one of the definitions of magic. Ain Soph Aur is the Universe pulling rabbits out of hats on a cosmic scale. Because the spiritual light emerges from the spaciousness of infinite potentiality, it is imbued with endless creativity, resourcefulness and spontaneous responsiveness. Whatever is needed is made manifest, provided to the receptive heart and will benefit all beings.

Receptivity is the key to unlocking this white light magic of the Spirit. When we are open to it, surrendered to its wisdom and willing to place that wisdom above our own opinions, we are capable of receiving and benefiting from it. If we are trying to dictate its course, to contrive and control it to meet our needs as we think they should be met, then we are not being receptive. The path of control and dominance is regressive. It is not sacred magic and it is not of the Spirit.

Open your heart to connect with the higher creative and healing intelligence of the light. No matter how much our wounded minds or broken hearts may believe a situation cannot be healed, Ain Soph Aur is always there. It reminds us that, whether we can see it or not, there is a spiritual path through all troubles. That path can be so beautiful we will become profoundly grateful for the struggle which caused us to grow (even if we never wish to repeat the experience).

As you open yourself to what is – even the unexpectedly difficult twists of fate – you will become ever closer to the radiant grace and luminous clarity, which is reassuring you, healing you, guiding you and loving you.

ALPHA OF ALCYONE

A positive twist of fate and a windfall of good fortune are destined for you. Brightness and hope will alleviate negativity and give you the strength to find your way through a time of adversity or challenge. Finally, you will experience peace, love and deep connection with your true self and the Universe. Good things are on their way to you.

The brightest star in the Pleiades star system, Alcone, holds the frequency of love, the sacred feminine healing power of compassion and the grace of mercy. She is the goddess of grace and mercy, especially in the face of heart-wrenching loss. She reassures us that we will find a way through and that there is comfort for us when we need it, even if further work needs to be done before we can be fully released into a new era of happiness.

Alpha brain waves are deep, calming waves. They are what we experience when daydreaming or slipping into peaceful relaxation or meditation. In the alpha state, imagination and intuition are heightened, as such these brain waves are a gateway into the subconscious mind. If we are in stimulation overload, alpha blocking can occur. Learning to consciously switch off and relax by dropping into the 8Hz to 12Hz range helps us melt away stress and tune in to our intuition, without becoming too floaty and unfocused.

Alcyone supports us in relaxing and reconnecting to optimism, even during tough times. In such a state, we will realise that difficulties will eventually come to an end and we will be provided for. A new reality of happiness is available to us even now, as we steadily make our way to the light of a happy new start.

Woosah! How deliciously lovely. Thus glorious bean I wish for you a week of Peace and Hope with an appreciation for the bones and stones and a love for the plants that nourish and heal you. The date for Creatrix Circle door opening has been picked and it will be just after the New Moon, so make sure you’re on the waiting list to be kept up to date.

Blessings, Hugs and Squeezes! See you next week.

New Moon in Scorpio, When the Darkness comes, and Eclipse season approacheth!

Jenny Heston · 12:01 am ·

Happy Marvellous, Magickal, Magnificent, Moodling, Manifesting Monday!

How are you? How are you feeling? In the wee hours of Sunday morning we were greeted with the Super New Moon in Scorpio, were you able to take some time and explore the energy of this most interesting New Moon (and the last New Moon prior to Eclipse season)? Remember you always have a few days either side of any more for introspection, ritual, magick making or just sitting with the energy for a while.

As Forever shares: “Whatever needs to come to the surface, especially on an emotional level is going to be stirred within us. We are going to feel the rainbow of emotions that make us human. The rainbow of emotions that in many ways, are our birthright.

We come to this planet to feel. We come into these bodies for a human journey in order to experience the array of emotions that are possible. It is through these emotions that art is created, that truths are revealed, that awakenings happen, and that love can bloom.

Under the dark night of the Scorpio New Moon, we are being guided to sit with ourselves and all of our emotions. We are being guided to allow the deepest of fears, loves, hopes, and dreams, to rise up from the pit of our belly, up and out into a new space of awareness.

It is our duty to sit with our thoughts and feelings as they arise, from a place of non-judgment. It is our job to recognize that we are not our feelings or our thoughts, we are the ones experiencing them.

Lean into that idea a little longer – you are not your emotions, you are simply the one that is experiencing them.

Your emotions, your thoughts, your story, are not who you are. They are simply the cloak that you wear as you travel from room to room on this journey called life.

As we enter the darker depths of the murky Scorpio waters, it may not feel comfortable, but it is indeed, necessary. Sometimes we have to do what is uncomfortable, sometimes we have to face whatever is lurking within the shadows of our own fears and doubts. For when we do, we gain so much. In those moments of wading through what is uncomfortable; when we realize and see fully and wholly our greatest pains, we gain a strength and a wisdom.”

Now for some of you that may feel rather “dark”, which is just a perception. As we are all aware – there can be no light without darkness and the darkness isn’t “Bad”, as it is often portrayed in many media circumstances.

In fact the darkness is loving, soothing and often a time of incubation and restoration. The darkness holds a warm container for deep healing and spiritual evolution, if one is willing to play in that arena.

Here in the Northern Hemisphere we are heading to the shortest day of the year (Winter Solstice), and I have noticed that my body is responding like a tree. I’m pulling the energy up into my roots, down from my branches and into my core and spending more time in silence, witnessing and contemplation.

As I sat out yesterday late afternoon I watched the sky change, the light move from blue sky to grey dusk to dark and as I stood up I thought – gosh it must be late! It was only 5:45pm!! Yet I wanted warm, rich food. To go inside and snuggle with a good book or my knitting, to cocoon and contemplate. To write, to slow down and really connect with myself.

So let me ask – how do you welcome in the darkness into your life? Are you willing to welcome it in and explore it, or do you need to push it away. In essence turn on all the lights, the music and be active to avoid?

Something to ponder with the energy of this lovely New Moon in Scorpio. Perhaps do some journaling, or if you feel inclined set some New Moon intentions with the energy in mind. If you have never worked with New Moon wishes, I’ve got you covered.

And this New Moon provides some delicious energy to play with prior to the start of Eclipse season (which happens at the Full Moon this month). In fact in Creatrix Circle we are having an incredible Full Moon Gathering to work with the energy of the eclipse through ritual, magick and intention. As if you’ve been with me awhile you know that Eclipse time brings a lot of hidden things to the surface. However, we will unpack that next week, okay?

Okay, enough chuntering. When I asked the cards who wanted to come and guide this week I was tickled to see The Wild Kuan Yin Oracle jump up and down. These glorious guides have been quiet on the public front for quite a while. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to would be rude).

Within you beats a wild and compassionate heart, alive with fierce optimism. Your heart knows that love has the power to conquer fear. You have the courage to walk a path of transformation. You are not afraid to shed old skins to become more of your divine self. You dream of living your highest destiny with fearlessness and joy. You are one of the wild ones. You will not be tamed by convention. You will not be censored by the fears of others. You are not afraid to be different. You are not afraid to be open to life, to take risks for what you love, and most of all, to keep hope in your heart. When the loving peace of Spirit seems too far away from the troubles of the physical world the Divine Mother will hold your hands, close to your heart, or rest gently on your forehead. She will bring you comfort. She’ll remind you of your fire, your boldness, your unique beauty, your passion, your courage. She’ll guide you through even the darkest loss into the blessing of new life.

Absolutely perfect guides for this time! As who doesn’t need to be reminded of love? Oh yes and the gorgeous crystals and rose petals were also most adamant!

Okay gorgeous one, take a moment. Breathe. Breathe yourself back into your body and just BE for a moment. As you breathe, invite in the warm swirl of darkness that holds so much richness for you and allow it to wrap you in its warm embrace. Then whilst in this space pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see what needs to be shared, shall we?

BLESSING OF THE KHATA BESTOWED

In your heart a desire for union grows, an impulse to move deeper into love’s embrace. As you open your heart, I pour forth my healing balm and my blessing. It is never too late for love. It is never too late for joy. It is never too late for connection. As my blessings vests in your heart, a path will open up for you, leading you into love’s expansive landscape. You too shall be as enchanted in love as I am, cherished and adored, surrender in love. Love’s blessing and presence finds you now. You are worthy of such blessing and shall be safe in the joy of its embrace.

In the Tibetan tradition, the white silk scarf, known as the khata, is a positive symbol that augurs new relationships with blessings for good fortune It is a symbol of devotion, and is also a visual reminder of divine blessing granted for a successful transition into a new chapter of your life in whatever way that manifests, including through a new or deepened relationship. This is your khata from the Divine Mother, Kuan Yin. It is her acknowledgment of good intention and goodwill, of divine presence in new relationships, and is an auspicious gift for new beginnings. These blessings are very special and this oracle is a vessel carrying that blessing to you now.

To receive the blessing of the khata as fully as possible, intend to open your heart and allow love to have its way. This may mean that some relationships, unable to be healed at this time for whatever reason, need to be released. This is so you can grow and open your heart more freely to those able to love you the way you wish to be loved, to those able to receive your love the way you are able to give. Remain open to love’s will, whether you understand it or not, which you can do by centering yourself in your heart. Let your feelings guide you and trust in whatever is happening now in relationships or the new beginnings in your life. You are not required to do anything except receive the Divine Mother’s love.

HER JOY RENDERS THE IMPOSSIBLE TASK POSSIBLE

I have a task for you. It is a sacred purpose burned in your heart, and you experience it as desire, as the big, bold dream that you may not dare to speak aloud. You must trust me and my power, for that is greater than any doubt or fear. I have created this task, this sacred purpose just for you. It will ask many things of you. You shall have to give up what you have been holding onto in order to open your arms to receive it.

In dropping your ideas of impossibility, and stepping into the joy of the journey, my beloved divine wild child, your destiny will be manifested through you rapidly, and all manner of miracles shall assist you on your way. Such fun you shall have in the process of discovering what you are capable of when your heart is open and you believe in me unconditionally! When you leap, do it with joy upon your lips as you squeal with glee, and know that even the trickiest ask shall be made attainable through my grace.

There is something you are meant to do. You’ve been growing towards it your entire life. All your life circumstances, lessons and situations have been teaching you valuable skills and wisdoms so that you are equipped for the tasks demanded by your divine destiny. You may know clearly what those tasks are, or they may as yet be a mystery to you. You may not be a big picture sort of person, preferring to focus simply on accomplishing the many smaller tasks before you each day. Even without the vision, this daily disciplined approach will lead you higher and higher until you have ascended the peak of your own personal mountain and can see the broader picture of how all those smaller tasks have prepared you for a bigger journey of passion and purpose.

For you to take this next step, whether it feels like the leap that will launch your destiny into an entirely new level of manifestation, or whether it just feels like the next step (and not a particularly significant one at that) on your journey, you are being guided. To truly take this next step, no matter how big or small you may imagine it to be, you must let go of doubt, fear, hesitation, judgement and control. Now that is no small task!

At a certain point in the journey, when we have learned to surrender judgement, and learned to open with increasing acceptance to all experiences that life delivers – even the ones we would prefer never to have to repeat – we will be ready for this new way to be.

You are being called to that place. It is simple but profoundly high in frequency. Whether you recognised it or not, there is a wellspring of joy within that never dries up. It is not always easy to feel it, and that is part of the mystery of human experience. Yet the time has come when another step is upon you and you need access to that joy within – the high frequency it releases within you – in order to take that next step on your life path.

There is nothing that is impossible. Approach your decisions from a place of joy. Follow your bliss. Do what you love and learn to hold love for your process, even if it is during a dark or challenging time. You are promised an outcome. Remain open in your heart and mind, and the Divine Mother shall orchestrate an offering according to the perfection of her joyful grace.

SURRENDER SENSITIVE SISTER, BE MOVED BY THE MOON

You know what you know. Even when you don’t know how you know!

I speak to you through that knowing.

The institution that is beyond logic. The feeling that has no physical proof as yet. The instinct to keep going, to trust yourself and take the journey before you. Even when you feel like you know too much, or are too sensitive, you do not need to shut down or try to protect yourself from feeling.

What will work better for you is to be open and truthful with all that you feel and resist nothing. It shall then simply flow, changing like the phases of the moon, naturally and without effort on your part. I will guide you and show you how to do this so that you will never be afraid- even of the passing experience of fear itself – and you shall become surrendered into life, moved by the moon, a living embodiment of grace in motion.

Something is happening. You cannot see it, but in your most sensitive and responsive moments you feel it. Others around you may not have any sense of it. You may be the one who can acknowledge the reality that is, as yet, still energetic, not quite yet obvious to a less attuned mind.

You may share your feelings with others, and they may accept what you say or see – or they may call you mad and reject it. Perhaps you may be keeping it to yourself because you don’t know what to do with the information or feelings you have, or are fearful that others will be afraid and judge you.

Don’t worry about this.

Explore your particular way of sensing energy. Don’t discount what you feel. Recognise, honour and be moved by it. You are gifted with an ability to feel what is before the conscious mind of others recognise it – a gift for perceiving what is going to be because you feel it in your bones. It is not prediction or guessing taking place, but attunement to the worlds of energy.

If you have been wondering if you can or should work with energy for healing or spiritual growth as a career or for personal development, this is confirmation of this. If you have been feeling more sensitive lately, even perhaps more emotional, and are wondering why – you are opening up psychically and intuitively, and becoming more receptive and conscious of subtle energies. These are the forces of spirit, mind and emotion, thoughts and feelings, that cannot typically be seen with the physical eyes but can be recognised and felt with other faculties of subtle perception.

Always call on the guidance that loves you unconditionally and then follow your feelings as they guide you along your divine life path with intelligent grace.

Oh how deliciously perfect for this moment in time! So gorgeous bean, I wish for you a most glorious week. If you feel inclined, take the time to play with the energy of the New Moon, plant some seeds in the darkness of the time and be gentle and kind to yourself and those around you. Oh yes, remember BIG mugs of hot tea and to BREATHE! Sending you huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week.

Surrender, Alignment and Today’s New Moon in Cancer!

Jenny Heston · 11:58 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Magnificent, Magickal, Musical, Moony, Manifesting Monday!

How are you? The weather has been stunningly gorgeous here and hot (which is not the norm), so I have been enjoying exploring the shore line and feeling the sun beaming down. However, I will admit I have been feeling restless and out of sorts, there has been a niggling from deep inside (actually not a niggling so much as a pounding on the door!) Funnily enough I made a commitment to myself last week to sit down and write out everything in my head that needed to get done, and another list of everything that really fulfills me.

Guess what? The “to do” list got done, but I still haven’t written the fulfillment list. Why?

Because I feel out of alignment with myself, my higher power and the Divine.

There is a huge level of grief whirling up around me at the moment as every day this month I have reflected on what I was doing with my sister last year. Also, the fact it is her birthday in a week (and that was the day she started withdrawing) and then died on the 30th. Along with that, the niggle (or pounding) is reminding me that I made a soul contract with myself a few months ago and haven’t honoured it.

So now I know I need to. As there is something far deeper and richer that I am being called to align with, create and then share with you all; and also to give myself the compassion and space that I advise others to take to process and honour grief. With the help of this New Moon and also stepping back from quite a few things for the next month, I will be honouring what my soul has been calling me to do for quite a while now.

Thus, a heads up that this will be the last reading coming out on a Monday for probably the next 5 weeks. I am still going to be doing Private Readings, and may pop in for Lammas (August 1st), with some yummy suggestions but I won’t be showing up weekly for a little bit, and I hope you understand.

Today is a glorious New Moon in Cancer and this is our second Cancer New Moon of the year. The first fell on June 21st and was a New Moon Solar Eclipse and now we have a regular New Moon on July 20th. This second Cancer New Moon may feel like a continuation of the energy that was happening around the June 21st Eclipse.

With the New Moon falling in the feminine and watery sign of Cancer, it asks us not to make spreadsheets and set goals, but rather to focus on aligning ourselves. When we align with our highest truth, our highest self, and our highest power, we need not worry about what unfolds next.

When we live life from this place of surrender, rather than trying to control, we can tune in and connect with our own guiding star, with our own true north, and even when we feel lost, we can hold this sense of hope in our heart that all is well and all is as it should be.

Which interestingly enough (and of course) ties into the Shamanic energy that we talked about at the beginning of July – Revisioning, Revising, Resetting.

I appreciate that that space of surrender can feel really tricky for some as we so desperately want to control everything. But let’s be honest – we can’t, nor should we. This is where Trust and Faith are called in. And when we do align with our higher self, surrender and trust – it takes us to a place of expansion. Whoot!

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share this week I nearly cried. What perfect guides for this time. Blessed Be. Please let me introduce you to Blessed Be as these guides may be new to you. “May these cards and guides offer you ways to enter into deeper appreciation of your life and its manifold blessings. May you have hope, understanding and kindness. And most of all, may you know deep within your soul, that thou art blessed.”

Oh my gosh, positively perfect. Funnily enough though 4 of them insisted they had to share with you this week, which made me grin!

The crystals that insisted on being present are Morganite, Fluorite, Rhodonite and Amethyst. And of course Selenite for amplification.

So my gorgeous one, let’s settle for a wee bit shall we? Take some time to allow yourself to really drop into your centre and breathe. There is a glorious guided visualisation below to help you with this. When you are ready and in that place of surrender – pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

A BLESSING ON YOUR INTUITION

A blessing to create a trusting relationship with your own inner guidance.

In this world, many will seek to guide you. They will hold a torch aloft and show you a road that they will promise you has a destination that is heavenly, or healing, or a home for the spirit in which you will be loved, in which you will finally belong.

May this blessing light the torch of your own inner guide, who alone knows the truth of your soul. May you begin to sense out what is best for you – without pride, or vain public deliberating, may you just simply connect with a light within, and from that light shine out and with that light – the glowing radiance of your own intuition, the guide of your own spirit – may the road you take be softly illuminated .

May you trust when it takes place, but not force it on another. May your own intuition grow in its light, until it glows bright when needed, and softens when you feel ready to walk steadily into the direction of your own soul. May you trust that you are becoming who you were born to be, and never who another would make you.

May this intuition not be shaken by mistakes, or misinterpretations, but may you open up the senses you were so gifted with by the Spirit that guides us all, and may your own inner wisdom that will be expressed through that innate gift of intuition be given room to blossom.

May you be guided, but never against your own intuitive will. And may you come to understand that the price of walking this way of truth to the self may sometimes be high, but never as high as the giving up of will and spirit and guidance to others. Let yourself be open to the messages from within, first, and then, allow the world to speak to you, through the filter of your most pure intuitive gift.

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING TO LIFT SADNESS

A blessing to lift the sadness that cloaks you, yet retain the wisdom and lesson it has come to teach you.

Sadness is a strange friend, a gloomy mist of feelings that moves through you slowly, softly stilling the growth and dampening the fire within. It can feel like a death, this farewell to joy, yet within its sorrow there await for you great gifts. So, when the time comes for sadness to move on, we ask for this blessing to allow it to slowly, softly lift from you, a diver who has been down deep beneath the oceans, nd as you rise, may it be slow enough so you can adjust to the happiness that will begin to flower again in your heart.

May your breath become deeper, your smile begin to light up your face again, may your eyes widen and sparkle with the wonder of all that is about you, and may your limbs find joy in movement once again. May you rise, and with that rising, bring with you the teachings of the sadness you have experienced, yet be free from the heaviness that has weighed you down so far below that you seemed apart from other people. May you re-join others, and find pleasure in company once again, and find solace in the sharing of your experiences.

May you not hate the sorrow that came to stay while, but know its presence brought you something holy – a lasting compassion for the sufferings of others, and the sure knowledge that as you once went below, you shall surely rise. And if it comes to stay again, you will not fear its permanence, for it is temporary in its companionship, and you will again become a creature of gladness, to balance the time you have spent within the cave of sorrowful knowledge.

Be blessed as the sadness lifts, and when the morning breaks and you feel light, and glad, and laughter bubbles up from within, remember that the wheel turns, and take the joy, and shine it out to the world. Your candle is relit friend. It is time to brighten all who meet you with the presence of your light.

BLESSED BE.

A BLESSING ON YOUR DAY

A blessing to bring awareness, to shape and set the energy of the day, and to frame it with light and the possibilities of healing, adventure and gratitude.

May your soul feel called by the song of the day. May this day be gentle and good, clear and sure, filled with grace and gentle reminders of your own divinity. May the people you meet this day show generosity of spirit, be hospitable and welcoming, and open and candid in all their dealings.

May the sky be filled with blue and white, may the green beneath your feet be solid and soft to walk upon. May the rain fall soft and nourishing, and trees whisper to you the secrets that you need to know.

May any challenges you encounter find an answering strength and courage within you, and when you come to your rest this night, may you remember the many blessings this day held, and account for them with the Gods, and be thankful for each of them, no matter how small.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING FOR PEACE OF MIND

A blessing to help soothe the mind at storm with itself, and bring about calm and peace once again.

When you awaken, and trouble is sitting there, with you, right on your shoulder, speaking to you of all you must fret and be fearful of, let this blessing come to you, and be felt truly in your mind, where the turbulence has reigned for too long now.

Let the quiet of the natural day steal in, let the soft call of your spirit whisper to you that you have worried too long, and that it is time to set down your burden and let the angels and spirit beings deal with what cannot be unravelled by the labyrinth of thought.

Let it go, and let it be, for it is not for you to do what others will not, cannot, or remain ignorant of. It is for you now, to care for you. Let peace, that quiet blessing, softly take up residence in your mind, and speak calming words to you, soothing every objection your mind at war with the world creates.

Let the nurturing of the Mother, the planet herself, who loves you so and cares so much for you, take hold, and take root within your mind. Let yourself do only what must be done this day, and be very kind and very gentle all this time with yourself.

Speak softly, remove yourself from anything that provokes the disquiet unnecessarily, and calm yourself through the taking of moments to soothe yourself. Let your mind release, one by one, those terrible thoughts that have tortured you. Let your body relax, and move, and in the movement free yourself from the stress and tension. Let the idea of being at war with the world, isolated and alone, go, and for a time, seek out only those who show kindness and sensitivity to you.

Be patient with yourself, and in this patience, let the blessing of deep peace be yours.

BLESSED BE

Oh sooo gorgeous! Well delicious lovely, I wish for you the surrender and alignment of this New Moon, and a week filled with grace. I will see you in a month. Remember, you can still have Private Readings at this time. Big Blessings, hugs and squeezes. And can’t wait to share with you what is being created! See you on the other side.

Grace, The Invitation, New Moon in Taurus

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

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

There are gifts and opportunities in everything!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

THE GOLDEN PHOENIX

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

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

THE DELICATE FAERY AND HER FRIENDS

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

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

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

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

THE UNENDING SADNESS OF LOOKING BACK

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

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

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

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

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

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

New Moon in Aries, and what an Interesting Week it’s been!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy, Magickal, Mysterious, Marvelous, Melodic, Manifesting, Merry Monday! How are you my most delicious lovely?

It’s been a heck of a week and the world as a whole is reeling with what is happening. Turn on any news, open a paper, talk to anyone and it’s all about Corona Virus. Which is why this post is not going to be about that. Not because I’m being an ostrich, more a case of believing heart and soul that we need to find new tools, laugh and find ways of resiliency to help us feel calm, aligned, grounded and strong. Yes? And saying thank you to all the amazing people like first responders, health care workers, grocery store clerks whomever, who is still showing up even though they would rather be safe and at home. Life as we know it has changed and we need to find a way through into something more sustainable, aligned and that benefits the whole!

As many of you know on Friday I sent out a link to a lovely community that I was told very clearly to create. Light, Love and Laughter. And as many of you know the link didn’t work, after digging and researching we found it is because the group is set to private. Why private? So that we can be real, raw and rare – share our gifts, shine our lights and have those deep conversations. So if you want to join us (we have gone from 1 on Friday lunchtime to about 250 by Sunday lunchtime). Send me a message and somehow we will figure out how to add you.

Okay, Tuesday we have a glorious New Moon in Aries, whoot!!! The Aries New Moon is typically one of the best for manifesting, setting intentions, and planting seeds. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and New Moons signal the start of a new lunar cycle, so there is strong energy for new beginnings and fresh starts. Plus the fact that we have Saturn moving into Aquarius, wowzer! All of this energy is already sending intense waves out into the cosmos and the New Moon will heighten all of this, plus bring a little of its own energy too.

As Forever Conscious shares: “Under all of this fiery Aries energy, we may feel wound up or extra emotional if we don’t give ourselves a healthy outlet to express it. Be mindful of allowing your emotions to boil over and try to act from a place of calm and ease. Take your time, think things through, and don’t be impulsive.

Interestingly, this New Moon falls at 4 degrees of Aries, which has been a trend. Back in February, the New Moon was at 4 degrees Pisces, in January the New Moon was at 4 degrees of Aquarius, in December, the New Moon Eclipse was at 4 degrees of Capricorn. In 2020, we are also in a number 4 year according to numerology.

In a number 4 year, we are called to return to the self and to find ways to create safety, comfort, and purpose from within.

4 represents feeling at home within ourselves, and it definitely seems this is a trend for many of us right now.

In astrology, 4 degrees of Aries is actually a very spiritually sensitive degree of the zodiac. It indicates advanced psychic energies and the ability to ascend to higher realms while remaining grounded.

At this time we can all deepen our connection with Spirit and use it as a tool to connect with who we are and what we can do to feel more at home within ourselves.

The Aries New Moon is always a wonderful time to set intentions for the year ahead but rather than telling Spirit and the Universe what you want, why not instead, open your heart to receive what Spirit and the Universe want from you?”

How can you become a vessel for Spirit? How can you allow Spirit to take the lead in your life and show you the way forward?

Sometimes one of the most powerful intentions we can set is to surrender to the Divine, Source, the Universe, or whatever we want to call it, and just allow it to show us the way to the perfect new beginnings for our soul.

What glorious energy to shine some light through the veil of fear that is pervading everything. This is where I highly, highly, highly suggest you give yourself some time and do the New Moon Bowl Ritual. It’s easy, it’s free and it’s powerful as it takes your intentions and puts actions to them.

When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to guide this week I was so thrilled to see it was the Earth Warrior Oracle, as now more than ever we need to become Warriors of Light, Love and Laughter. Now if these guides are new to you please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to! 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.”

Oh my gosh I am smiling so much now as they are positively perfect for this moment in time. And then interestingly enough they insisted on 4 cards for this week!

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled and bounced up and down to join in and support are:- Morganite – cleanses the emotional body of stress and anxiety, old wounds and hidden traumas, and enkindles lightness within the spirit, as if a burden has been lifted and released. K2 – enhances one’s discernment, a stone of deep insight. Clear Quartz – is known as the stone of power and amplifies any energy or intention. Rhodonite – a glorious stone of forgiveness and one of the most powerful heart chakra stones. The glorious little flowers that came to join, I have no clue what they are. They grow on a tree near me and smell divine!

Woosah, let’s settle in shall we? Breathe, gorgeous one, deep into your belly and let it expand all the corners. See your roots going down into the earth and connecting with the Divine Mumma and pulling glorious healing energy up through your roots and letting it dance through your body. There is a gorgeous guided visualisation to help you ground, connect with the Divine and breathe if you feel inclined.

When you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug for you, invite you in.

Shall we go see?

LINA

What Must Be, Shall Be

You have beautiful dreams and inspired, bold ambitions. You are guided to believe that they are a natural expression of your soul, something that is meant to be. Life will support you in the expression of those dreams and ambitions, even in the moments where it seems to be struggle rather than support, that you are experiencing. The process for transformation into full maturity involves learning how to grow through light and through darkness back to the light again. You will always find your way back to the light. Have faith in yourself and what must be. Dedicate yourself to what you love without hesitation.

If you are experiencing loss or change, have faith. Sometimes things happen that seem to working against us. It is only later that they show themselves to have been valuable ways by which we acquired the greater faith, courage and determination that were necessary to the fulfilment of our purpose.

Know that your destiny is unfolding, and you are moving through circumstances that are ultimately going to help you become your soul in fullness and splendour. Keep going. Everything happening in your life is helping you to fulfil your divine potential.

Sometimes this can be confronting. To give up old ways or old identities can seem frightening to the mind. Yet it is inspiring and exciting for the soul that yearns to blossom into fullness and cannot thrive when it is held back in fear.

If you are a visionary with ideas that are not yet widely understood, but will help push humanity towards the new world, you may struggle more than most. In this cse, you are asked to take leaps of faith and endure the endings inherent in evolution whilst waiting for the signs of new life.

Know that any darkness will give way to the light.

CHAKANA

Time to Cross the Threshold

Threshold appears, bringing an ending so complete that it is no longer possible to return to what has been. The light of the star is your faithful guide into this new world. S you trust in your divine connection, deconstructed forms shall reshape themselves into relevant, helpful and beautiful new ways of living, thriving and expressing your true self.

Trust in your strangest ideas, in that which is different, inspired or unconventional. This crossing is healing and futhers the activation of your divine potential.

Change is afoot. You won’t feel in control of the process. Trust in what is new, different or exciting to you. Don’t assume that unless all things happen easily, then you must be on the wrong path. You are on the correct path, even if the birthing pains to fulfil it are challenging. You are guided to reject societal norms about how you are supposed to live or what sort of things you are supposed to value.

Instead, trust your own values and believe in the truths that you feel within your own heart. In time the world will be ready to recognise and benefit from your spiritual growth. The Universe is helping you in all ways, including through correct timing. At the right moment, you will leave the past behind you and enter into the fullness of the present moment, opening up to the brightness of a new future.

IXCHEL

Medicine of the Rainbow Jaguar

Ixchel protects you now, as you transition from one life phase to the next. With her rainbow light, this guardian goddess instructs you on how to use great power with wisdom, to nourish only what is worthy. Using Jaguar medicine, with perfect timing, she confronts that which is unworthy of her devotion, eradicating destructive forces and creating space for healing relief and rebirth. Her presence is the wild power of the jaguar, the renewal promise of the rainbow and divine feminine creativity. All darkness shall be overcome.

You are going through a transition. Cultivate hope and stay true to your intentions. Let nothing divert you from your true path. If you have a new project, vision or lifestyle that you are seeking to bring into the world, Ixchel is guiding and guarding you for a healthy birth.

It is important that you cut off negative sources completely at this time and do not allow yourself to be used or exploited. This is not the time to indulge someone else’s ego or go against your own inner knowing in order to give someone the benefit of the doubt. Trust your instincts and break immediately from what isn’t right for you. This will bring you new opportunities and situations that are worthy of your passionate devotion.

CH’ASKA

Star of Venus

Ch’aska, Star of Venus, supports an inner shift to higher consciousness. Whether or not you consider yourself to be financially skilful, part of your sacred power and purpose includes the healing of economic and financial matters in your own life and the world. You are meant to experience abundance, creating and sharing prosperity from a place of inner spiritual security. A healing liberation from poverty consciousness allows the Universe to work through you more easily without the obstruction of negative conditioning.

You are being guided to give up false shame of not having enough, or guilt for having too much. Your true worth is a matter of soul and has nothing to do with material things. As you relax and acknowledge the love that the Universe has for you, your material reality will unfold with grace and divine support.

Financial healing is indicated. Let go of fear and trust unconditionally that the Universe is supporting you. What brings you a sense of joy, purpose and passionate devotion? Focus on that. Believe in your ability to thrive by being and expressing your authentic self. Notice how you relax into flow and more easily attract what you need when you acknowledge that the Universe wants you to flourish through being you. Focus on putting your beautiful beliefs out into the world, not in consuming the negativity or fear of others. Give of your spirit abundantly!

Oh my gosh! You seriously can’t make this stuff up – what glorious cards for this week ahead! So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a week of health, light, healing and calm. May you and your family/friends be well and be blessed. In the words of Brene Brown – This pandemic experience is a massive experiment in collective vulnerability. We can be our worst selves when we’re afraid, or our very best, bravest selves. In the context of fear and vulnerability, there is often very little in between because when we are uncertain and afraid our default is self-protection. We don’t have to be scary when we’re scared. Let’s choose awkward, brave, and kind. And let’s choose each other.

I choose you.

Big Hugs and Squeezes,

New Moon

Happy Moodling, Magickal, Mysterious, Magnificent, Musical, Manifesting Monday!

Lean into that idea a little longer – you are not your emotions, you are simply the one that is experiencing them.

In a number 4 year, we are called to return to the self and to find ways to create safety, comfort, and purpose from within.
