Oracle Card Reading

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How’s that for a warm welcome?

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

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

STORM ANGEL

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

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

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

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

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

GHOSTS OF THE PAST

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

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

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

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

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

ANGEL OF TIME

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

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

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

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

Pause, Play and Welcome to the Year of the Golden Rat!

Jenny Heston · 11:23 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Meaningful, Melody Making, Magnificent, Marvelous, Majestic, Manifesting Monday! How was your New Moon? Did you celebrate the wonderful Lunar New Year where we now enter the Year of the Golden Rat! Whoot! I am so excited, as Rat energy is good for my animal!

I went and bought a huge box of the cutest little tangerines with stalks and leaves on them. Picked up 30 red envelopes from the Chinese grocery store downtown and then filled them with 2 loonies each (as you always have to work with an even number). I then spent a good chunk of the day delivering them to family, friends, neighbours and even random people lol, a little red envelope with money in it and oranges. A sceptic friend pointed out that I wasn’t Chinese; so why bother? Because it’s fun! Because it’s wishing others good fortune and a great Lunar New Year, because it makes me smile, laugh and raises my vibration to share, gift and PLAY! (Note that word as we are going to do a little exploring this week, yes?)

Last year one of the phrases I kept hearing was “I’m so busy,” No shit! Everyone is. We live in a society where we are more connected by technology than ever and like Pavlov’s dogs we jump when the cell phone goes off or there is a “bing” as the 90th email of the day comes flooding into our inbox. We rush from this event to that event and then collapse into bed at night clutching the medal of “Being Busy and Overwhelm” to our chests as we check our phones one last time before drifting off into an exhausted sleep. Then as the alarm goes off in the morning we reach for our phones to quickly scroll through social media. Seriously?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not judging, I’m just observing and speaking as someone who has done that.

But what if there was a better way? What if you gifted yourself with the time to Pause and Play? When I suggested that to someone a few weeks ago they looked at me askance and said “Jenn, I don’t have time for that and there is no purpose.” Ahhhh, grasshopper that’s where you are wrong. Taking time daily to PAUSE, to just BE, to not be doing, lowers your heart rate, calms your adrenal system, soothes the mind (eventually) and more importantly it allows space for your wise self to share with you, to be heard. Now I’m not talking hours, or even half an hour – unless you want to. I’m talking 10 minutes perhaps. It could be sitting on your front porch with a cuppa tea. It could be perched on a log in the woods, it could be curled up on your sofa looking out of the open curtains at the night sky. It’s that time where you gift yourself a bit of space and listen. Think about it, when you listen to great music, there is a pause – yes? When you read a book, there are pauses between the paragraphs and chapters – yes? When you take that deep soothing breath in, then hold for a few seconds prior to exhale – it’s the place of the pause. The place of playing in the infinite field of possibilities is in the pause.

Now let’s look at the PLAY aspect.

Have you ever walked down the street with a small child? They jump in the puddles, are fully engrossed with the worm they have found and notice the most random things that we, as adults, blow past – as we are busy, right? They are in the moment. They are playing and radiate joy like massive sun beams! If you’ve ever owned a dog and taken them out for a frolic, they are a fabulous teacher for being in the moment and playing full out. There’s a stick, there’s a ball, there’s someone to run with, what’s that smell, chase that bird, roll in that deliciously stinky thing, chew on a log. They aren’t worried about the future, they aren’t moaning about the past they just are! Now I’m not saying be a dog or act like a small child, but I am saying do something every day that brings you Joy, feels fun and makes you feel good! Why? Because it gives you a glorious release of dopamine which is great for your brain, it makes you smile, which causes the people around you to smile (or think you have lost your mind), boosts your immune system, rejuvenates and replenishes you and raises your vibration to attract to you more of what you WANT!

An example, I love to dance. I will dance in the kitchen when I’m cooking and now when I take the doggo out for a late night walk I have great soundtrack on and I dance for about 3 km. Does it make me laugh, heck yes. Does it feel good, heck yes. Do I look daft, oh gosh yes! But who cares. Whatever it is that makes you smile, laugh and have fun – do it every day and watch what happens.

I had a friend visit on the weekend who had bypassed her inner wise wisdom due to “feeling busy and overwhelmed” and was in a challenging head space, dealing with some life blips and quite fragmented. So after listening, making sure she was fed I invited her to come for a yomp with me. “I’ve so much to do, I don’t know……blah, blah, blah.” But she trusts me enough to know that when I suggest something to at least try it out. So off we went, I pointed out the eagles, the rainbow, the hummingbird, cracked jokes, danced next to her and I had even brought chalk! So we made some lovely pictures on the walkway and her shoulders started to drop down and there were smiles galore. I chased a peacock trying to get it to gift me a tail feather and she laughed her soxs off. We sat on a driftwood log embracing the sun and the waves flooding in. By the time we got back to the house (a whole 30 minutes!) Her mood, her vibration where deliciously high and she was laughing. Also, in that time we had nattered about creative solutions to the blips she was facing and because she was in the energy of fun and play she could hear them!

So I have an invitation for you. Are you willing to gift yourself with 5 minutes minimum of just BEING and breathing and doing one thing every day that makes you laugh and is fun? What have you got to lose?

I’ve been playing with this practice for a month now and have to say it drags me out of the blaugh, and I feel fabulous. It also brings up creative solutions, my intuition is higher and more importantly I am laughing daily (even if it is at myself lol).

Okay, enough chuntering on – but I’m serious about the invitation. Try it for 21 days and see what changes for you, for those around you and more importantly watch how delicious you feel!

So when I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide and share this week I grinned and laughed. The gorgeous Lightworker Oracle guides chose to show up and shine. The perfect guides to help you embrace your light, raise your vibration, pause, play and shine!!!

Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them:- This deck is for lightworkers and what I mean by that is old souls. They have an interest in being of service. They want to live a life of passion and purpose and have their life mean something at a spiritual level. They care about causes that stir their hearts. They are often the black sheep of their family. Does this sound like you? I know it does for me.

The crystals that wanted to show and shine are:- Angelite– brings serenity, inner peace, and a sense of calm, and it’s excellent to use with overwhelming stress. Rhodochrosite – opens the heart, lifting depression and encouraging a positive and cheerful outlook. It improves self worth and soothes emotional stress. Aragonite – helps relieve stress and anger bringing you patience when it is needed most.

Also,the gorgeous snowdrops and daisies wanted to come and share their light and they are happily ensconced in a vase on my table now.

So sweet pea, just breathe yourself back into your body. One slow deep breath, then exhale after another. Allow yourself to bring to mind what does the pause and the play look like for you, what do you want it to look like? As you breathe that idea into your being, just notice it, let it play in your minds eye.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper, tug or invite you in.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

ORBS OF LIGHT

The spiritual worlds are delivering a message to you. You may have already heard it, through telepathic reception, and mistaken it for your own thought. Yet it is inspired by your higher guidance, those spiritual beings that love you without condition. It is an answer to a question and guidance to increase your happiness.

It is possible to pray without realising it. The Universe is lovingly listening to every thought and feeling in your heart and mind. When you intentionally speak to the Universe and ask your higher guidance to help you with an issue, this is a powerful way to call the light into your life. It works. Often quite rapidly! However, sometimes we ask for help without being so aware of doing so. Worrying about an issue or pondering a question are ways this happens.

There are orbs of light around you. They are spiritual beings that love you. These orbs contain information and energies that help answer questions – and worries – through the intelligence and love of the higher spiritual worlds. That information might come through a song, a phrase, a feeling or a colour or symbol that unlocks awareness in the deeper recesses of your mind and body.

To access the information of these orbs of light, to be open to seeing them more clearly, whether directly with your own energetic vision through clairvoyance, or through photographs or other means, do so.

Unconditional loving orbs are available to you at every moment, open your heart and invite them in.

INITIATION BY WATER

Situations have been rising in your world that evoke emotional reactions and challenge your opinions and beliefs. You may not feel in control. You may feel like your world, your own emotions, have become like a stormy sea in which you are tossed about – and you are doing your best not to drown in the chaos. Yet you are not to fear it. It is stirring that which has been held within so it can be released. The storm will pass and the waters of your emotions shall become more serene.

You could compare the process to a glass of water with muddy sediment at the bottom. The water appear clear as the mud is left to lie. Yet once that water gets stirred up, the mud rises. Then it can be filtered out, and the water will be clearer than ever before. The turbulence was a step that led to greater clarity.

The waters in the glass are comparable to your emotional waters. And the fixed opinions, beliefs or long-held emotional patterns based on unresolved past pain are the sediment at the bottom of the glass. Hold the glass up to the light. Can the light shine through the sediment? No. But it can be seen through the clear water. Remove the sediment, and the water will be clear enough to allow light to shine through without obstruction or distortion. The light is the light of Spirit, of higher truths, unconditional love, of peace, wisdom and joy.

UNPLUG FROM MASS CONSCIOUSNESS

There is a belief system based on fear, doubt and distrust this is known as “mass consciousness”. It says it is safer to stay with the crowd, not to question what you have been taught. It says you can’t trust the Divine to take care of your financial well being or your emotional needs. It says you should be afraid and not take risks. Its says that if you dare to stand up and live your truth, you’ll be lost and alone, humiliated, rejected or even destroyed.

You are being guided to unplug from that systems of beliefs. You are capable of a more creative, loving and soul-satisfying way of living. To access this, let go of the way that is too small for your soul!

You are brave and aware enough to think outside the box, beyond what society or your peers may consider ‘normal’. You are supposed to be questioning things right now. You are in a transition from one way of thinking to another, opening up to a new world which you can trust enough to live with peace and happiness because of the upgraded new beliefs you are cultivating.

No matter how others may resist or criticise your choices (perhaps your new ideas take you away from the world they feel comfortable in), your higher guidance encourages you to keep opening your mind to a more loving, higher reality.

Sometimes breaking from the accepted norm, doing things differently or being considered weird to family, colleagues and friends is a sign that you are breaking away from the consciousness of the masses, which is not compatible with your own higher frequency consciousness.

So keep unplugging yourself, one layer, thought, word and deed at a time, from that which the mass consciousness would have you buy into – more stuff, more fear, more competition, more doubt and more suffering. You can challenge any thoughts you don’t want to have. Free yourself. You have the power to change your world and the world we live in as a result, on liberating thought at a time.

Wow! Okay, there we have it. Lots to encourage us to step up and shine! So my delicious lovely I wish for you an amazing week filled with the pause time and the play time. May you give your wise inner voice time to actually speak, and more importantly to be heard and may you laugh like a 3 year old having their tummy tickled! Huge hugs and squeezes.

The Veil is Thinning, have you talked to your Ancestors? And a Samhain offering!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Marvelous, Mystical, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday delicious lovely! How are you? How was the Scorpio New Moon yesterday? Did you give yourself some time to think of 10 wishes, desires, goals you want this glorious time to support you with? The weather here has perked up and I have revelled going out in the sun and playing in the leaves – let alone we had three birthdays to celebrate this last week! (I so love good cake!)

This Thursday we have Samhain (Halloween) and as I have shared before it is one of my favourite celebrations!!!! I mean I seriously love, love, love Halloween (or as I refer to it Samhain, pronounced Sow-een)! I love the costumes, the pumpkin carving – which we did on Saturday and ended up with some very cool pumpkins. I love the crispness of the air in the morning, the smell of wood smoke late at night from chimneys near by, the crunch of the leaves under my boots as I go yomping about. I love having hordes of little people who are dressed as faeries, princesses, warriors, ninjas and a myriad of other delights knocking at the door hollering “Trick or Treat!” When my kids were smaller and would go out with pillow case clutched in hand to gather farrrrrr too many sweeties, their enthusiasm and delight was positively contagious. As the mumma I was also able to impose a “mumma tithe” on the sweeties, so I would receive 10% of all the mini chocolate bars (the mini Mars bar being my favourite!) Nom, nom, nom. Yesterday we all got together as a fam dam, lit a fire, carved pumpkins and celebrated one of my boys (with a massive homemade Greek feast). It was absolutely delicious. I love these moments. Now why do we carve pumpkins? Have you ever wondered? There’s a fabulous Irish myth that you can share with your kids all about The Tale of Stingy Jack and the Jack o Lantern…..

I love that the veil is thinning (and some of you may be saying – Ummm, errr, What?). Halloween was originally a festival celebrating the dead and the world of the supernatural. It was a time of reverence for and contact with the dead. It was also a time to reap the crops that had been sown in the year prior and to prepare for the “dark night of winter.” It is the New Year for many pagans, especially witches (or Wiccans). Samhain was and is a time for reflection on the previous year and what you have done with your life. It is a time of great magick and mystery and reverence for the supernatural and the “other side.” It is considered the time when the “veil between the worlds” is at its thinnest and the dead can-and do-walk among us. Thus, making it easier to communicate with those who are no longer physically here.

Many of you have emailed me asking if there is going to be a Samhain reading special. I have perked it and yes until November 1st I have opened up spots. It’s the perfect time as magick and communication is in the air! Which got me thinking about Ancestors, mine in particular. I have been fortunate to know 4 generations prior to me, some albeit briefly and I have had aunts who have explored our Celtic family and have shared.

However, you may know a name, a date when born, when they died – but who were they? Have you ever thought about who your Ancestors were as a person? What they did, how they felt, what they wished for? I read a phrase the other day “ You are the Faery Tale your Ancestors told.” Breathe that in and think about it. It really hit me as I was having a shower (I know odd, but hey), here I am reaching out to my Ancestors – but in generations to come they will be reaching out to me as I will be the Ancestor. They will be the faery tale I told. What would I like to tell them, and share with them?

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

This perking of Ancestors got me to thinking about Belonging. I facilitate a group called Soul Matters and each month we “walk” with a theme through the month, there are amazing spiritual exercises to explore, and we come together and practice deep listening, and deep sharing – this isn’t light or trite or for the faint of heart lol. The theme for this month is “Belonging” – not just about the place you feel you belong to, but more importantly “who and what do you belong to?’ Think about that – who and what do you belong to. In other words, “whose am I?” You are not a single mote floating randomly in the Universe, you are part of the people around you, you are part of your family and I invite you to welcome in that you are part of your Ancestors. Yes?

So as we approach Samhain I invite you to perk about your Ancestors and who do you Belong to and what does that feel like. Willing to play with it?

With Samhain, the veil thinning, Ancestors and Belonging wafting through the air when I went to the cards I grinned like a Cheshire Cat! The cards that chose you this week 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. And some gorgeous little Calendula flowers wanted to impart their healing – don’t fret – they went in a gorgeous salad afterwards. Nom!!!

So delicious lovely, breathe yourself back into your body. All the way down to your toes and to the tips of your hair. Woosah. Just breathe, gift yourself with these moments. I have included a lovely guided visualisation to really tap into the energy of Ancestors if you feel inclined. As you breathe invite into your minds eye Ancestors and Belonging, let them swirl and guide you. Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you. Woosah!

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to look?

BROTHER RACCOON

Raccoons speak of stealth, remaining undercover, and flying under the radar. Raccoons suggest you take cover, work with camouflage, and stay in the in-between places for a time in order to remain safe. Do not reveal who you are, what you do, or your new idea or project to all. Too often we share what we are planning out loud, giving all, even ourselves, the impression it is already done. It is not.

It needs careful protection, but mostly you need to not draw attention. It does not mean you have to be furtive or sneaky, though some will call it so. It means to quietly get on with your day-to-day and the very soulful business of change without showing everyone every detail along the way. You have far to go – at this early stage it is not advisable to share all. There is a sacred part of you that must be protected, for it could easily be exhausted and exploited by those who will be very quick – even quicker than you – to recognise the value of what you have.

In order to survive, sometimes you must hide, camouflage, or mask yourself from those who would know our true nature and exploit you. Like a precious plant when snow falls, you must go underground, huddle in your seed, and keep quiet and safe from those who would take you and cultivate you and your amazing self for their own reasons. This is not a time to allow yourself to be used by others for their own agendas. Do not think of this hiding or melting into the forest as cowardice; it is wise to go to ground for a time now. In order for ou, your ancestry, your bloodline, and anything cherished and rare to live on, you sometimes must hide it away for a time, brining it forward later so that you flourish.

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.

SNAKE PRINCESS

Associated with the goddess, worshipped in the matriarchal cultures of Minoa, and venerated by many people, including the Hopi, the snake is life itself. It is the marriage of the heavens and earth, and it symbolises the union of masculine and feminine. The snake is your spine, your DNA, and your nervous system; it is the ancient serpent kundalini knowledge that has been denied for over two thousand years and now returns.

It may be time for you to carry a staff, a sacred tool around which the snake mother can twine and speak with you. You deserve to let this energy flow into you, for it is the ultimate energy of rebirth. It is time for you to shed the skin of fear and conditioning, yet to use still your own wits. The snake will support your intelligence, and goddess will support your true self-love and acknowledgement. You are about to receive knowledge of healing, of ancient times, of the beauty of what lies beneath – the underworld, with all its wisdom of crystals, minerals, and ancient worlds.

Speak and show who you are. You will not bite. You will grow strong. You will not poison. You will inform us all with your brightness and illuminated apple, which when opened will reveal the five star seeds of wisdom. Do not refuse this apple. Do not heed the fear. Transform and heal. The propaganda about the snake and the serpent goddess has led us to fear this creature and our deep, wise, ancient self, and to forgo many blessed forms of connecting with the divine and with our own DNA.

My home is this tree of the world, where all souls flow from. Your soul is nurtured by my presence and wisdom of the tree. Eat of our fruit. It is your soul nourishment. And do not let the fears and the lies you have been taught be the reason you deny me. You are strong enough. You are worthy enough.

Wow! Well delicious lovely these are amazing cards to welcome in Samhain and the glorious New Moon energy of Scorpio that we just had. Breathe it in. Take some time to imagine your Ancestors, including the ones you don’t know of, and invite them in to support and guide you. Wishing you a stupendous week, may you have a myriad of mini Mars bars appear on your doorstep and smell the crisp air, walk in the crunchy leaves and give thanks. Allow the whispers of your Ancestors guide you to Belonging. Happy Samhain! See you next week! Remember, if you would like to take advantage of the Samhain reading special, you have until November 1st.

Big hugs and squeezes,

Fall Equinox is here and we have a New Moon in Libra! Whoot!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy Magestic, Magickal, Miraculous, Mischevious, Magnificent Mabon Monday!!! Whoot! Whoot! Fall Equinox (Mabon) is here! I am wiggly, piggly, jiggly like a labrador puppy as I love this time of year and most certainly this celebration and the energy that comes with it. Yummers! For those of you who don’t know anything about Mabon, you can find out here. Mabon is often referred to as “Witches Thanksgiving” (no, it doesn’t mean you have to be a witch). It means it’s the second harvest festival on the wheel of the year, a time to give thanks for the bounty in your life, to release the things that you may have outgrown and to be grateful and count your blessings! Yes? Counting our Blessings is a powerful practice and something I do every morning on the beach.

Thank you to so many of you who messaged and emailed over the weekend sharing how much you enjoyed the Mabon Magick Manual and telling me about the rituals that you are choosing to do today – so very cool. One lovely woman asked for ideas to help her young granddaughters mark the day with ritual – I was thrilled to share some of the things I did with my kiddlies when they were little as ritual taught when young is so empowering and connecting. I also want to say a huge thank you for all the birthday wishes and love, I was so touched and feel incredibly blessed!

The weekend was glorious fun! As one of my son’s birthday is two days before mine, we had a joint family/friend gathering on Saturday where we rolled sushi and ate the most amazing Black Forest Cake made by my lovely friend Marja. (The best Black Forest Cake I have ever had). We laughed, danced in the kitchen, told bad jokes and snarfled a shed ton of sushi that we had made, it was great fun.

First thing on my birthday I took Danu for a quick jaunt around the neighbourhood bright and early and I nearly wet myself laughing at one point! A couple of days ago I was thinking to myself – gosh I would like a HUGE planter (I mean like a good 2.5 feet tall), that’s interesting etc. Lo and behold as we turned a corner – there on the boulevard was the perfect huge gorgeous planter! Quickly finished our jaunt, grabbed the truck and with lots of “oofs, aahhs” and brawn loaded it into the truck. Fabulous gift from the Universe to start my birthday morning! I then bundled up and headed out with Danu in the rain to the woods. It was glorious! The smells, the colours, the soothing green that wraps itself around you like a rejuvenating hug – ahhhhh. Now, if you have never walked with a doggo I highly suggest it (go borrow one if you have to). They a pure joy in motion. Danu was up in the bush, dashing to the lake, shooting back along the trail, trying to chase the frog, sniffing at the gorgeous gnarled roots – pure joy in motion.

In the evening, like a fall leaf I changed hair colour (thank goodness). Now if you know me, I have been rocking super short blonde hair with a darker undercut, all summer. Well with Mabon here it is time to be like a leaf and change colour, so now I am rocking the colour that I love a super, super, super (did I say super) bright red – positively perfect for fall me thinkst.

Today I am taking a day to hang out with Mother Nature, garden, plant, harvest and practice ritual. I have already done my fall cleaning and cleansing and am looking forward to some play time with the plants, nature, the random animals that appear in my garden (there was a peacock in the rainbow chard yesterday when I got home!), and doing some releasing and intention setting. How are you going to mark today?

We have a New Moon in Libra happening this Saturday on the 28th. What does this mean for you? Remember New Moon’s set the energy for the month, and are a fabulous time to write your New Moon wishes – so think about the Libra energy. Libra is about balance and harmony, so this New Moon is inviting you to to look at if you might have a strong need for balance and harmony. You probably desire to keep things “nice” rather than venturing into fundamental questions in order not to disturb the peace. You must learn to share your good and bad feelings. Do not be afraid to be who you really are, despite what is expected of you. Hell yes! The more we own and embrace who we are and how we feel, the better the world is (trust me).

Okay, we are doing something a tad different this week. When I was at the Mind, Body, Spirit Expo the other weekend a deck called to me so strongly that I didn’t even open it and look (which I normally always do), I just paid for her and brought her home. Well she insisted on being the guides to work with today and for this week and I have to say I think that’s quite delicious. This is a different type of deck, there aren’t guides per se, but there are – if that makes sense. Please let me introduce you to Blessed Be as these guides are new to you and relatively new to me, allow me to introduce them. “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.”

The crystals that were wiggling are:- Black Moonstone – for “feeling”, and understanding via intuition and emotional “thoughts”, rather than via intellectual reasoning. Smoky Quartz – is amazing for balancing and grounding as well as helping you to vibrate at your fullest potential as it releases negative emotions, and last but not least – Carnelian – stabilising, it restores vitality and motivation, and stimulates creativity. It gives courage, promotes positive life choices, dispels apathy and motivates for success.

And of course from our jaunts in the woods there are leaves that are just beginning to turn and some lovely juicy rose hips! (Don’t worry they then got used in a glorious Mabon centre piece).

Okay so let’s get centred shall we. Just gently breathe yourself back into your body, be here now, just at this moment. I invite you to see in your mind’s eye the Divine Mother (whatever she looks like to you), breathe. Then imagine her putting one hand on your feet and one hand on your head and saying “Everything between my two hands is beloved and blessed by the Goddess.”Breathe that blessing in, allow it to swirl through you and know how loved you are. Then when you’re ready; pick the card or cards that wish to bless you this week.

Did you pick?

Shall we go see?

A BLESSING ON A BATTLE THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDED

“A blessing to help you through a conflict that must be faced with courage and compassion for all involved.”

Battles in our lives are not always the way we have seen them depicted. They may not be a fight, or a confrontation, or the clash of swords swinging. Most of us do not want the battle, we want the peace, and to talk and parlay our way through the differences and the difficulties within our lives. Many times we may walk away, knowing that the battle will bring more damage than we can face. And at other times, we must walk through the fires of confrontation and go into a battle we did not want, but which can no longer be avoided.

So, this is a blessing on those who are to face a battle they wished was not theirs to fight, but it has become clear that they have no choice but to confront, to bring out their arms, and to fight. It may be with the law, it may with wits. It may be through speaking your truth, and it may be by refusing to accept what another has determined is enough for you. It may be with a challenge, or a condition, or an injustice or a cruelty.

Whatever the nature and form of the battle before you, accept now this blessing upon you, for your courage. For your reluctance to bring aggression into the world. For your refusal to run. For your determination to see this story through, and for the belief you now have in yourself and whatever cause it is that you now stand up for. For your warrior’s heart, which is blessed with courage, and strength, of the feeling of fear, yet the ability to stand your ground. For the swinging of the sword, and the raising of the shield, For the quiet in the chaos that you will find, and for the sacrifice you will make, in order to see this through. You are blessed, and your warrior spirit is rising, and it is blessed, for you are no aggressor or foolish conqueror. You are a soul who will no longer run from what stands between you, and the rest of your beautiful life.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING FOR UNITY WHERE ONCE THERE WAS DIVISION

“A blessing to help accept the difference between you, so that they inspire conversation and exploration, interest and discovery, rather than separation and rejection.”

May the division between you be left behind as you both begin to build a bridge of light formed from the willingness within your hearts to find your way back to a common vision. May the differences be worked through with the highest good of all concerned the foremost goal. May the differences that remain be ones that bring spice and change and agility to your ways and thinking, and may the bridge that is built between you all be strong and sturdy, lasting through the ages.

May the newfound unity recognise that there is not sameness, but a oneness of vision and a weaving together of dissimilar threads to create a glorious picture of paradox and complementary opposites. Let the antagonism and focused-upon rejection give way to humility – a willingness to listen, and may those who are unquiet and bellicose in their rumblings and threats be stilled by the knowledge that all will gain when peace is found.

May the love that can be born between people find its way through the fear. May the sense that when together, more can be achieved than when stubbornly apart, melt away the fences and walls that hold us from each other. Let us live and let live, give and take, share and receive, and come to an understanding. And let none of us involved in the bringing together of separate parties set alight that bridge.

Instead, let us quietly, surely and with intentions matching actions build the way to reach each other once again. United, so much can be done. We can raise each other up, and as you do, each of you who brings your heart to this task of healing will stand firm upon the solid ground you are now building. Unity is yours, friend.

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

So my delicious lovely, I wish you an amazing day, an incredible week. I invite you to give yourself time, even if it’s only 10 minutes to tap into the energy of Mabon and really embrace the blessings in your life and celebrate them. Wishing you crisp, crunchy apples, cool mornings, brilliant sunshine and the awareness to notice the leaves changing. Huge hugs and squeezes and see you next week.

Losing My Marbles, Synchronicity, Serenity Prayer and Ostara, Spring Equinox is just around the corner!

Jenny Heston · 1:05 am ·

Happy Magickal, Mystical, Marvelous, Magnificent, Majestic, Merry, Motivated, Manifesting Monday! How was your week? How are you getting on with “Next Step” energy and did you remember to make your New Moon wishes? Remember too that the New Moon sets the energy and holds your intentions for the 29 day cycle, so even if you didn’t have a chance to write down your wishes, you can still work with the building energy throughout the month! (That’s very handy for those of us who love to procrastinate!)

I have had the most bizarre week (actually it’s been a few weeks, but this last one has been even more “interesting” than normal, to say the least. (I once read that to bless someone by saying “May your life be interesting”, was actually a curse). Gulp!

For the last little while I have been pretty sure that I was losing my marbles! So if you feel inclined, grab a cuppa tea, get comfy and let me share the experience I have been having with you, and in the process I am “outing” myself a tad.

So just over a few weeks ago I was trundling through my day, minding my own business – tra, la, la, la, la (get the picture). I was sitting out on my front porch with my evening cuppa tea watching night descend and the stars start popping out and all of a sudden this huge (and I mean HUGE) download came in that left me scrambling for a pad of paper and a pen and writing, writing, writing. When I finished I read over what I been told to write and there was one of those huge inhales of breathe and a sense of “Oh My, this is going to be interesting to say the least.” Anyhow, I put it aside, took my supplements and hopped into bed with the full intention of trying to ignore it all. No such luck. My dreams were filled with it all and in fact one just kept looping over and over, so much so that I woke up swearing my head off! Lol.

Now you may be thinking – “Jenny what the heck is the big deal, you got a download, you wrote it down now get on with it or let it go.” Good point of view, but have to say there was no letting it go, or more correctly it was not letting me go and to be honest it terrified me a tad as I have always thought of myself as a highly logical, empathetic, spiritual being and now I am being asked to talk about Magick! Yes I did say Magick. In other words Practickal Magick, the Magick that is in all of us, we were born with it but for most of us we have put it in a little cardboard box and stuffed it at the back of the closet. This is the Magick that wends through our day to day, our work, the intentions we set, the dreams we have, the way we think, our beliefs, our mindsets, the legacy we want to create, absolutely every single fibre of being in your body and all the delicious threads of life. It’s retrieving and reclaiming those lost or hidden pieces of ourselves. It’s living highly intentionally in tune with ritual, seasons, all the elements and a myriad of other things which in turn allows us to manifest on an exceptionally high level and to show up and serve at an exponential level. It’s Practickal Magic.

So why does this feel like I was losing my marbles? Think about it! You get a huge download, your ego flares its humongous wings and you try to run and hide, but there is no escaping. The manifestation wants to come to life and so finds you in your dreams, follows you in nature, whispers to you as you work, even picks the movies that you feel drawn to (that’s been most interesting!) You open your mouth to talk to a random stranger about the weather and half an hour later you have been talking about magick, ritual, alchemy, herbology and they have opened the box in their closet a tad to share. You find yourself digging up the front lawn and creating a garden that is a myriad of circles with paths that are East, South, West and North. Books are strewn open at random pages that all speak to each other and the synchronicities that have been occurring have been mind blowing to say the least. Tell me you wouldn’t feel like you had just stepped off the planet into another realm (or had gone totally bat shit crazy but no one was telling you!)

The other evening I phoned a spiritual mentor and poured out the last few weeks. He was fabulous and quietly listened, with the odd murmur. At the end of my vent, rant, sharing of having totally lost my marbles and why hadn’t anyone told me, he chuckled softly and very kindly said. “Jenny, you are totally sane, this is part of who you are and what you are meant to be doing.” He asked me if I could control what was happening and when I shared I couldn’t and the more I ran and tried to avoid, the worse it got. He then reminded me of 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.” We talked for a while longer and he ended the conversation by asking me if I had the Serenity to accept and the Courage to follow it through. Ahhhh grasshopper, a very good question. So I am embracing Serenity and Courageously going to step forth, create and share. Yes, it may mean I use the word Witch (which will certainly tweak some people to the max), but to me Witch means – “ Someone who is connected to and has a love for all life and a joyfulness to work with it instead of against it. Someone who pays attention to the life they have, celebrates the magic within them and works with energy, nature, herbs, stones, ancestors – the whole gamut to help and support the interdependent web that they are part of.”

As someone who has been a solo practitioner for years, to me this download is like creating an amazing community of like minded people, where we explore, learn together, and through rituals (which is taking thought (Air) and turning it into form (Earth) which in turn moves through every cell of your body and locks in your intention) we learn to really BE, CREATE and SERVE at a supremely high level.

So there we have it. I haven’t lost my marbles (at least not all of them), I have felt supremely uncomfortable for the last few weeks, but I feel this is exceptionally important for all of us, and it’s interesting for me to see that the energy is getting stronger as we approach the glorious celebration of Ostara, or Spring Equinox (Fall Equinox) if you are down south. So I’m breathing into the Serenity and the Courage and it feels pretty frigging delicious to be honest. A prime example, other than all the writing for the programme I want to offer to create this amazing community, was putting a shovel in the garden and within a week I have created a glorious design, the grass is all gone and there is a plethora of beds where native plants, hawthorns, herbs galore, along with flowers and veggies will be planted to entice hummingbirds, bees, butterflies and faerie folk to come play. Oh yes, and just to get covered in dirt and have that glorious sense of physical contentment of creating sacred space. Nothing beats it! Now that is Serenity in motion!

So a word of advice. If you are ever thinking you are losing your marbles, pay attention to the messages, breathe into it for a bit – don’t run and then check in with someone you trust implicitly! Because, if you can do all of those, you aren’t losing your marbles! (Just saying).

Now if you know me (which you may or may not), I write and then ask the cards who wants to come. I never pick the cards and then write to them. Does that make sense? So to write the above and then go to my decks. I laughed and thought “OMG! You seriously can’t make this stuff up!”

The cards that wiggled and jiggled to come to the forefront made me laugh outloud. The Oracle of the Dragonfae were most adamant that they take centre stage and share with you their guidance for the week. Now if this deck is new to you, please let me introduce you to these glorious guides. These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick! They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names.

The crystals that jostled and jiggled to come and support you this week are:- Amethyst – a stone of spiritual protection and purification, cleansing one’s energy field of negative influences and attachments, and creating a resonant shield of spiritual Light around the body. Clear Quartz – clarity, manifestation and focus. And last but not least Cinabrite – a powerful stone for unearthing the divine powers within you. Oh yes, and just as I did the reading one of the 30 tulips I have in a vase dropped her petals to share.

There is a lovely guided visualisation to help you tap into the Spring Energy and really strengthen your intentions if you so choose. If not, just breathe. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth and allow yourself to settle in. Then when you are ready see in your mind’s eye a glorious young green shoot. This is your intention, your desire – invite it in and as you breathe into this gorgeous green being pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a peek?

THE DAWN WATCHER

Never think that you are alone in this world…you do have guardians and I am one of them. I will literally ring alarm bells for you when you have need of forewarning and foreknowledge. There is nothing to fear when you receive these messages; you simply need to pay attention, take note and act when the time is right. I will always alert you and it is my particular domain and charge to watch for the new sky as the sun rises and to let you know that what you have hardly dared even hope for has every chance of coming true. Watch for the sunrise and know that as she does, so too do your hopes. And these bells will ring out for you to let you know of the approach of new growth, new warmth and a new energetic time coming for you. Listen and hear the bells ring for you. And then you shall awaken from your soul sleep!

It is time to be alert and aware; to arise early and to pay attention to the signs that abound around you – selectively. Focus on your mission at this time and work towards it. Be determined and do not allow others to distract you. Call on the Dawn Watcher to assist you to focus on the messages that are most worth hearing, and so that you do not go into fear. The Dawn Watcher is a very powerful guardian and will help you greatly be alerting you with plenty of time; all you need to do is pay attention.

Listen more respectfully to the bells of dreams, deja vu or of physical reactions to particular energies. The Dawn Watcher only weakens when you pay her bells no head, when you will not wake up and hear the calls. Know that you are always being watched over and being told through your body, your mind and your spirit of what is to come

LADY OF THE NEW BUDS

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

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

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

Many will feel you’re fortunate indeed to have created such a beautiful Eden, but they will not see the care you have taken to grow this. But I have seen. I have seen it all.

THE LISTENER

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

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

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

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

Wow, wow, wow. Pay attention, Growth and Listen. Perfect messages as Spring Equinox approaches. So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a glorious week filled with Magick and Purpose. Delicious sunbeams that caress your face, moments of serenity and courage, as well as Spring flowers or Autumn leaves. Oh yes, and gobs of hot cross buns toasted and lathered with butter! Huge hugs and squeezes. Oh yes, and if you want to learn more about joining the amazing community of Practickal Magick please make sure you are on the email list.
