Summer Solstice is here and Goodies Galore!

Dearest Gentle Reader,

Frigging love starting a post with that line! Summer Solstice, also known as Litha, arrives on Friday June 20th and the fire in you wants to burn with the sun.

To light up and beam out as far as humanly possible!

And why not?

Now you may be thinking to yourself, Jenny I have no clue what you are talking about or how to tap into the energy that is available to me!

Not a problem! There are two glorious goodies for you that will ignite your inner flame!

First off, I have you covered with the amazing Stupendously Abundant Summer Solstice guide. Fondly referred to as SASS, as who doesn’t like a little SASS.

She is a glorious 45 page guide that will walk you through it all with love and tenderness and help you ignite your own fire.

So let me ask – what words come to mind when you think of the Summer Solstice?

Thematically this celebration is about POWER, Strength, Illumination, Confidence, Energy, Self-acknowledgement, Joy and of course – glorious Faerie revels.

It’s time to celebrate and also time to reflect on your personal growth and the meaning of the season of light and growth.

This is the moment of our year when there is the most light available to you.

In terms of consciousness, it is when you are the most present to yourself and who you know yourself to be — the Sun represents the light of all life and consciousness.

At the summer solstice, a doorway in time opens, which our ancestors viewed as sacred and holy.

Litha is a grand portal of energy, space, and opportunity – a chance to let go of fears, doubts, and insecurities.

After the Sun reaches its maximum power, it begins to decline.

Slowly, the night force will grow stronger until its peak at the winter solstice.

Litha is the last chance in our calendar year to activate sacred intentions before moving into autumn and winter, the natural seasons of harvest and rest.

It’s a time to step out in faith and imagine what’s entirely possible for yourself. Dream an expansive vision for your life that will sustain you as the darkness slowly returns with the fall.

Which brings in the 2nd goodie!

After a lovely natter with my guides we are opening up 2 readings that are specific to Summer Solstice, which we haven’t done in two years! The first one is Stand in Your Power and the other one is Hot Mess!

Only 20 spaces will be open from now until the end of June for the Solstice/Litha energy.

Remember, like the Sun, you have your Inner fire.

Your Inner Fire is the fierce, powerful, badass part of you.

The You that does the hard work of bringing your dreams to life. In the same way that crops would cease to grow without the Earth’s sun, your life would shrivel without your Inner Fire.

So let’s ignite it so you can beam like the glorious beastie you are!

Okay, enough chuntering away.

Let’s crack on with the reading, shall we?

These are glorious guides to support you reconnecting with your Dream Song, Your Heart Song, Your Soul Song – your Inner Fire. Let their words and images wrap you in nourishment and niggle away deep inside.

So take a glorious deep breath gorgeous one, and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go take a little look-see, yes?

GO DARK

Your darkness is not your enemy.

It can seem scary, but it’s where new life grows and develops. You do too.

This moment calls you to be willing to be with your own darkness. It asks you to embrace your dark as your beloved ally. To cradle your uncertainty.

The dark night of the soul holds secrets for you that you wouldn’t be able to see in the brightness of glaring certainty.

Poet Mary Oliver spoke about a box of darkness as a priceless gift in her life.

Chaos, crisis and suffering want to gift you a new understanding of who you really are beyond who you always thought yourself to be.

COURT THE FEMININE

The word cunning is closely associated with the fox.

Cunning, like foxes and women, has been given a bad rap.

Many have twisted the word’s sacred origins into something manipulative and conniving.

But the word cunning comes from an older Middle English word “ken”, a range of knowledge or sight.

A cunning person understands that deep internal sight and wide-range vision lead to building an authentic life. Excavate your deep knowing and trust its messages.

This is the way your soul-sight grows sharp, and your instincts return to the untamed power you were born with.

Sharpen your cunning to cut away what no longer serves.

No matter your gender, your life deserves the fierce protection that feminine discernment can bring.

CRAFT YOUR FOCUS

Your vision is a magnifying energy source, amplifying and expanding what it perceives.

In any single moment you have one choice. You can turn your gaze toward what you don’t want, what isn’t working, what you are fearful of, what you worry about.

Or, you can look at what you treasure, what you love, and what you hope for, despite what reality tells you is possible.

Either way, what you focus on grows, right?

Now is the time to use this very simple power to direct the energy and flow of your experience.

When you focus on what you already have with gratitude, and what you want with love and appreciation, you create the energy version of your vision before there is any proof in the material world.

This moment invites you to consciously choose your focus.

Okay, have to say – love these cards! All deep, rich and meaningful! Wishing you an amazing Solstice and huge blessings. Remember to grab your copy of SASS, or gift yourself or a friend one of the Solstice reading specials. Huge hugs!

Deepen into the May Energy and let’s talk about Mother’s Day.

Jenny Heston · 4:44 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Misty, Mischievous, Magnetic, Manifesting May Monday!

How are you delicious lovely? How was your Beltane experience?

I made a lovely offering to the Fae of crystals, sunflower seeds, red wine and shiny coins. I noticed a good chunk of the red wine was gone the next morning.

So either there were some tippled faeries flying around or a tipsy racoon!

Okay my darlings, we have lots to natter about this week. We have the Full Flower Moon, a big shift in May energy and of course Mothers Day all coming up this week.

So grab a cuppa and get settled.

On Beltane I did a glorious ritual and really tapped into the intuitive energy of this month of May, as every May has a different energy.

For example last year was about Mental Clarity and Inspiration, this month the word that came to mind is Deepening.

The image I was shown was the ocean, that deep unknown that we play in, go to, feel the pull of the tides, but we don’t fully “know”.

The Deepening energy of May asks us to really root into who we are, what we want and why we want it. What are we here to share? What are we here to learn?

It’s as if we are standing at a cliff edge looking at the ocean and being called to get closer, to really Deepen with a glorious warm Benevolence that wraps us up in a glorious blanket.

The ultimate question of course is – are you willing?

When we live in a fast paced world being bombarded with all sorts of drama our nervous system can go into a fight/flight/freeze/fawn – so this is where Deepening comes in.

Think of Deepening as a delicious Tend and Befriending of your core self, where you meet yourself exactly where you are – without the judgements or complaints.

After I had that download, the next day I went to the Ocean early in the morning, took Fearghus the swimming dog and walked. Walked, threw sticks and watched Fearghus bring in the present moment. The joy, the waves, the embracing exactly this moment.

As I walked and dropped into that space I asked myself these questions – which I invite you to try.

How can I create a cycle of nourishment in my own life?

How can I bring balance to the flow of giving and receiving?

What does it feel like to meet myself exactly where I am with no judgement?

Creating this harmony really begins with me and my inner state of being, and am I willing?

I found a glorious wee starfish who had been left on the rocks, and rescued and tossed him back. And then the most amazing Raven kept coming closer and closer as I was about to leave and was only 10 inches away.

Deepening. That is the invitation for May, and if you don’t have an ocean nearby, go to a river, a waterfall, a moving body of water! Let me know how that feels for you.

Sunday the 11th brings in Mother’s Day, and for me personally, it’s irrelevant if you have birthed children or not. As we have all at some point in time nurtured, mentored, supported a child – whether they were ours or not.

I will be honest, I have learned so much from my five children – they have taught me amazing lessons, given me a lot of angst, and helped me to grow up.

I also realise that Mother’s Day can be challenging for some as there are so many energies that float around that day, there’s:- love, frustration, loss, grief, disconnect, yearning, joy, expectations, connection, being invisible – and so very many more.

This will be the first Mother’s Day that I don’t go grab a ton of dirt, plants and planters and create amazing pots of flowers for my Mothership. It feels very strange so I’m allowing it to be what it is.

So remember:-

“Let everything that needs to go, go. Let everything that needs to come, come. “

On that note, let’s crack on with the reading.

So gorgeous one, breathe. Just breathe, BE and allow yourself to relax, your mind to calm, your breath to slow and ask your wise inner self – what do I need to know this week. Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at your heartstrings – don’t let your mind pick!

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell. This is very special.

A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

When spirit enters and fills the temple of the heart, things of extraordinary beauty take place. Even the seemingly impossible becomes possible. Clear your heart temple with forgiveness, gratitude and love for the spirit, so it can fulfil its divine destiny of being a sacred channel for beautiful divine grace.

The mind may believe it has got the power to rule, but, in truth, the heart is queen. You are a true goddess of love, one who consults the heart for answers. You will courageously follow the guidance of the heart. Even when the mind doesn’t want to surrender to the call of the heart, and fearfully lists numerous reasons why it is crazy and stupid and will end badly, you know that the doubt of the mind is no match for the power of the heart.

Things don’t need to make sense to your mind or to anyone else, they just need to make sense to your heart. You are already a divine queen, your heart aflame with passionate purpose. Stay true to your heart’s wisdom and you will change the world!

SHAMAN OF SKULLS

In your heart, you have been asking for something different, something more, and the Universe is answering your prayers.

You don’t need to be afraid of the changes happening, or that are going to happen, for you. They are part of that answer from the Universe! You might feel uncertain because you cannot see how it is going to all work out – but know that the Universe is caring for you, and will provide a way to move through the transition with grace.

You are not crazy to willingly enter this experience. There is nothing that you need avoid, and so much that you will gain.

Something is ending. Something that has meant a lot to you. Maybe it is a relationship, a phase of your life, and identity that no longer suits you. Maybe it is an inner ending that you can’t quite articulate, but you feel nonetheless. This is a symbolic death with a greater purpose.

The shaman is spiritually trained to overcome the fear of symbolic death and, instead of avoiding endings, to willingly go through them with the awareness that an ending is simply the other side of a beginning. The shaman learns that endings happen when something new wishes to be born.

Be patient with yourself, be kind, but also know that new life is happening for you now according to a higher purpose and loving plan. Your life is meant to change at this time. Be encouraged! From the ashes of this symbolic death, you shall rise again.

FINCH SPIRIT GUIDE

Finch Spirit Guide comes to you with guidance to care for yourself in a particular way.

Finches can become beautifully coloured, but only when they eat foods that nourish them. They have the power of beauty within, but they need the correct nourishment to be able to transform that potential into expression.

You also have beautiful divine potential to shine your light and beauty in the world, but you must feed your soul what it needs to do this. Be respectful and loving to yourself as you choose what to take into your being – be it physical nourishment or emotional energy or even the kinds of books you read and entertainment you watch, for all has an impact on you.

Do you feel better for the experience? Does it nourish your soul?

The best growth-enhancing food for your soul is that which increases love.

Finch Spirit Guide also brings a prediction of a celebration of happiness ahead of you – and wants you to know that your connection to the spiritual worlds is real, to trust in the messages you feel from the Universe as they make themselves known in your heart.

It’s a good time to experiment with how to best care for your mind, body and soul. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about finding what works best for you. You are in a phase of your life where giving back to yourself is important.

Perhaps you have been sharing a lot of yourself with others, have come through a challenging time or, in the near future, will be stepping up in a new way to share more creative energy and soul fire than ever before.

All that you need to know now is that it is the right time to take extra special care of you.

Gorgeous one, wishing you a stupendous week, month of Deepening if you are willing. Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!

Taurus Season, Beltane, and a Gift!

Jenny Heston · 1:03 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Merry, Marvellous, Magnetic, Manifesting, Moodling Monday!

(How’s that for alliteration?)

It’s the last Monday of April (this month has been “interesting” to say the least!)

I hit the “Pause and Reflect” button just after Spring Equinox, hence no readings for a few weeks – but we will chat about that next week.

And as it is our Election day here in Canada I really wanted to get this reading, gift and post out to you – as I feel we could all benefit from it!

Okay, on April 20th we entered the sign of Taurus where we will hang out until May 20/21st. It’s at this point that energy slows, and we begin feeling our feet land on the ground after the hot and fiery energy of Aries.

What does the Taurus energy want you to remember and remind yourself of daily?

“You are worthy; you were born worthy; you need nothing outside of yourself to claim or own just how worthy you truly are.”

Taurus Season is our time in the year to slow down, consolidate our schedule, and think about what we wish to really dedicate our time to.

While Aries Season inspires our impulses and passions, Taurus Season wants us to look at our long-term goals and hone in on what we really want to dedicate our time to.

So what do you want this year?

On Thursday we have Beltane! So let me wish you an early Happy Beltane!!

And to help you tap into these expansive energies (and to have some fun), I have created the Beautiful Beltane Book for you.

I call it a booklet, but it’s 23 pages packed with rituals, suggestions, journal prompts, spells and more! And to celebrate this magickal day it is my gift to you for only $9.

Now if rituals, lore, magick and spells aren’t your gig and you just want something simple – I have 5 Questions to Ask Yourself on Beltane.

Beltane is the cross-quarter day that marks the midpoint in Spring. We are now half way between the Spring Equinox & the Summer Solstice.

Beltane celebrates the height of Spring and the flowering of life. Earth energies are at their strongest and most active.

All of life is bursting with potent fertility, look at the trees around you – (if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere), they are bursting forth with bright green leaves and the little sparrows are back as well as the robins. Abundant fertility, on all levels, is the central theme.

In the middle of the season there is a clear difference in the energy compared to the beginning of the season. You can see evidence that the wheel has shifted. The days are noticeably longer – the sun sets much later than it did at the Spring Equinox. It’s grown considerably warmer outside.

At the Spring Equinox new life was just beginning to emerge. But here, at the beginning of May, there is no denying that the Earth has been reborn.

Beltane is a time to celebrate all the pleasures in being alive.

The Goddess has reached her fullness and is the manifestation of growth and renewal and shows up as the May Queen, Flora, the Goddess of Spring. The God emerges as the Young Oak, May King or as Jack in the Green.

They fall in love, the union is consummated and the May Queen becomes pregnant.

Together the May Queen and the May King are symbols of the Sacred Marriage, the union of Earth and Sky. If you have ever read “The Mists of Avalon” you will know what I am talking about.

This is the night of the Greenwood Marriage. It is about sexuality and sensuality, passion, vitality and joy. And about conception.

A brilliant moment in the Wheel of the Year to bring ideas, hopes and dreams into action. And have some fun!

And like Samhain, this is when the veil is thinnest between our world and the Fae, so leave a wee giftie out for those ancient magickal ones.

Okay, that was a lot, so let’s crack on with the reading.

I laughed when I saw the guides, as I mentioned the veil is thin between us and the Fae and so the Fae decided to show up. (You seriously can’t make this shit up).

Do I need to introduce you to them?

These glorious guides give you needed glimpses into your everyday life and help you see where changes can be made to enhance your life here on Earth. There is so much more to our world than we often perceive.

There exist many dimensions and numerous beings that reside in these realms. All of these elemental beings are interconnected with us. We do not live independent of one another but are interdependent. These wonderful beings are here to help.

Okay dear one, take a moment.

It’s so easy to just pick a random card with no intention, but what if you allowed yourself that moment of intention? What if you dropped into your body, breathed into the tight places and just paused? Let that quiet and stillness soothe you, calm your mind and break up your day.

Then from that place, on this day, ask your wise inner self – what do you need to hear this week?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

Always

Infinity

Let’s talk about Infinity, shall we?

To truly understand life, you must understand that you have always been….and always will be. You are part of the Divine Source that rules the Universe. Your spirit and your soul are immortal.

As the physical body passes from existence your energy body survives, eventually to move back to join with the Spirit.

Your connection to Divine Spirit is never severed. You are never alone. You are always connected to the Source. You are the vehicle through which the Divine Spirit manifests on Earth.

Understand your divinity and your importance on Earth.

Appreciate that every other being on Earth is equally important to the Divine Plan.

First, always be there for yourself!

Perhaps in the past those who should have stuck by you did not. Those you thought were true were not.

Release old pain and habit patterns and allow your highest good to manifest in your life.

Express your gratitude!

This primes the pump for a real lasting relationship, with yourself first, then someone else. And always with the Divine. .

Remember the elementals that are helping you along the way. Their devotion to you is infinite and unwavering.

Fire Dance

Fire Energy

The Fire Dance represents the dance of life, for it is the giving of life, which is the function of the Kundalini energy force (also known as serpent energy).

It is through this energy that life and creation are achieved.

The Kundalini energy is a mighty force that should be allowed to awaken at its own natural pace. It will naturally open as you become more loving and more conscious of your own divinity and connection to Spirit!

Fire energy that is awakened too soon is at risk of misdirection. It is wiser to study, read and work on your own spiritual understanding. This will gently let the fire energy rise. Balance is very important in this energy system and promotes well being on all levels.

This energy is in constant use daily in conjunction with all of your energy systems, which all work together.

If you have been feeling low in energy be sure to review your eating, exercise, and sleep habits. Take good care of yourself and make a “releasing of worries” statement to yourself and the Universe.

A delicious and easy way to help your energy systems stay in top running order, is to sit in a quiet, comfortable place and close your eyes. Slowly imagine breathing in and out each colour of the chakra system…start with red and move to orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.

Imagine breathing in a beautiful mist of each colour.

Breathe each colour until it feels integrated within your body and then move to the next. Soon you will feel more balanced and energised!

Trespassers

Boundaries

Fairies have boundaries, in case you didn’t know.

They are usually in the form of magical spells placed around sacred places in order to keep out those who might tamper with their sacred objects. They also have an invisible magic boundary around their realm.

It is not easy to break through this boundary but it can be done when one knows the secret words!

Are you having trouble respecting the boundaries of others? Is someone not respecting your boundaries?

A third question is, “what kinds of boundaries or limits am I placing upon myself?”

These are questions to ask yourself in order to discover which area of your life you need to work on. You cannot expect others to respect your boundaries if you are not clear with them yourself.

You must state clearly and honestly to others about where you draw your lines. Be kind but clear about your expectations.

In turn, be respectful of others’ boundaries also.

Their business is their own.

With regards to the boundaries that we place upon ourselves; we often set these limitations on ourselves due to lack of confidence, self-respect, or even lack of knowledge.

Release any unwarranted restrictions that you have assumed.

Release limiting habits and thought patterns.

The dragon at your gate can either protect you or hinder you. What will you ask it to do?

Woosah! Happy Beltane! Be gentle with yourself but also push against the electric fence of your comfort zone. Remember You Are Worthy!

Big hugs and bouquets of flowers.

Spring Equinox and Happy Saint Paddy’s Day!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Magnetic, Magickal, Marvellous, Musing, Merry, Musical, Magnificent, Manifesting March Monday!!!!!!!!

Okay, have to ask – are you wearing green? It is Saint Paddy’s day after all!

It makes me chortle to see the people who pull out the green tee shirt saying something like “Kiss me I’m Irish”, and maybe 2% of their genetic makeup is Irish, lol.

As someone who is 50% Irish, I most certainly am wearing green and an Irish t-shirt!! (And no it doesn’t say kiss me!)

On Thursday (March 20th), we welcome Ostara (Spring Equinox) , that most delicious place of change.

Ostara is named for the goddess Eostre (see the ties with the church!?)

Because Ostara celebrates and honours the spring equinox, it is – much like Easter – directly linked to many elements and symbols of springtime.

These include rabbits, chicks and birds in general, eggs, baby animals of all sorts, blossoms and flowers, fresh green grass and plants, the first fruit, vegetables and herb offerings of the season; light, warmth, and soft, bright colours.

It is an invigorating, terrific point to reach and one that encourages us to take our cues from nature and to focus on areas such as balance and harmony, planting new seeds and setting fresh goals in our lives, fertility (which can simply mean areas that we wish to have multiply.)

It is a time of growth, hopefulness, lightness of being and spirit, and things that warm our innermost hearts as much as the glorious spring sunshine does the outdoor world.

If you want to learn more, go deeper and explore this glorious energy there is the Ostara Magickal Guide (also known as OMG!).

The Equinox brings the time when light is perfectly balanced with the darkness.

This is a powerful time that represents seeds of intention, awakening, growth and rebirth.

It’s the perfect time to do some reflection and align yourself with the habits that will allow you to truly flourish this season.

So let me ask:-

How will you support yourself during this transition?

How will you grow, glow & flourish this spring?

What types of balance are you creating in your life?

What are the seeds that you want to plant for yourself?

Remember, this is the time of Beginnings, Fresh Energy, Setting Intentions and planting them with love and care.

What are you going to plant?

Equinox is a good time to consider balance in our lives, not only of happiness and sadness, but also of the areas in which we are active and passive, successful and falling short, giving and taking.

What are you receiving (and do you want to keep it)?

And what are you giving (and do you need to)?

It is said that on the Equinox, the energy grid of the planet moves into higher harmony, allowing us to soak in the healing powers of Mother Nature with greater ease.

With the energy grid of the planet alive and awakened, we can also replenish our own energy centres of the body and send our thoughts and intentions out into the Universe for creation.

So as mentioned before, if you want to dive deeper, learn some lovely rituals etc. give yourself a copy of OMG! (Ostara Magickal Guide).

Oh yes, and for those of you who have emailed and asked about Rooted in Resiliency, it will be coming out at the end of the week.

As after all, if we are planting new seeds of being at Ostara, we need to be resilient, yes?

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading!

These are glorious new guides that I have been having a lot of fun with, so please let me introduce you to them.

“Banish “not enough” from your vocabulary. You have always been enough.

You deserve all the love you keep trying to give everyone else.

Listen to the dream song of your soul.

Let it remind you who you really are.”

So darling one, take a lovely glorious deep breath. Allow the energy of Ostara to swirl around you, teasing you, lifting up your hair and tickling your neck. What are your seeds? What are your intentions as we start this glorious season of Spring?

If you want to go deep. One of my gifts to you is a glorious guided Spring Equinox meditation/visualisation, to help you root into this time.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go take a look, shall we?

INDULGE THE WHIMSY

Play is at the heart of every creative endeavour.

Play creates meaning, increases resilience and promotes health. The secret to living an enchanted life is to remember playfulness.

It lives in you as a magnetic force, deeply influencing every creative thought, relationship, project or endeavour. If you want to breathe new life into the adult world of responsibilities and requirements, engage your play.

Climb a tree. Listen to a fountain. Sing with the birds. Allow yourself to spontaneously skip down the grocery aisle or stand outside in a rainstorm. Follow the fireflies.

Then, go one step further and put play on the schedule.

Prioritise it. Court the wonders of the natural world.

Now is the time to discover that you are one of those wonders.

FLY THE WINGS OF WORTHINESS

The days of doves descending from the sky with messages of peace and belonging are long past.

Today, your promise of “more” is delivered through the radiant women you meet. In the powerful sway of nature’s embrace. In the rush you feel when dancing or creating.

You encounter your own worthiness when you allow yourself to receive.

And when you allow yourself to walk away when someone denies reciprocity or can’t meet you in mutuality. This moment is about owning your worthiness, and doing the work to heal the places where it has been wounded.

Cultivating worthiness is important.

So is recognising where your worthiness is denied.

Get up from the table when love is no longer being served. Go outside. Look up. The doves are circling, as is new belonging.

You are equal to and worthy of every beauty the heavens bestow.

BRAVE THE JOURNEY

Now is the time to journey. Say yes. Explore.

It’s time for travel, adventure and the unknown.

You travel not to discover new places, but to meet the new you created while experiencing those places.

If it’s not an outward journey beckoning, turn inward and explore the stunning vistas, lost horizons and secret forests of the psyche.

Living in the mind alone is akin to owning a castle, but restricting yourself to the broom closet.

Don’t settle for what others have told you of adventure. Pursue your own, right now.

There is only one way to unfold your own myth, and that is to be willing to brave the unknown.

Wowzer, those were glorious guides. So my delicious lovely, another free gift is a beautiful ritual to plant your Seeds of Intention. Equinox blessings and see you next week! Remember to get your Ostara Magickal Guide!

Blood Moon Eclipse in Virgo, Mercury is about to go Retrograde, Resilience and Spring Equinox! Phew!

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

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

I don’t know about you but the Spring Equinox and Eclipse energy are fully ramping up!

My dreams have been rather odd (cool, but odd) and my brain and body are making me really look at the seeds that I am intentionally planting, both figuratively and literally.

This week we get the glorious Virgo Blood Moon Eclipse on March 14th!

This is the first eclipse of the year and the season.

This is the perfect opportunity to assess, reflect and leave behind anything that is disturbing your balance or preventing you from achieving true harmony.

Now remember, eclipses uncover hidden emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and habits.

They bring to the surface the bits and bobs we have been either trying to stuff into an already over cramped closet, or have continually swept under a rug (and we wonder why the rug has a bump in the middle!)

So if you have been feeling agitated, emotional or as I like to refer to it – “itchy, twitchy and bitchy”, I’m not surprised.

With this being a Full Moon Eclipse. Imagine the energy of a Full Moon intensified by 100, that is the energy this brings. The releasing of a full moon, the uncovering of an eclipse and the deep, deep emotions of Virgo.

“With the Blood Moon in Virgo, we are invited to step into some of this Virgo consciousness and to remember that within us too, flows a river of wisdom, strength, and wholeness.

We are invited to connect with our inner being and to recognize that we have the power within to navigate whatever situation we may find ourselves in.

Returning to our own inner strength and intuition is going to be a powerful way to navigate this Eclipse energy.

Remember that we too, are an extension of God/Goddess and connected to all of the Universe. We are far more powerful than we have ever been led to believe.”

Then on March 15th Mercury goes retrograde.

Now instead of buying into the bad rap that Mercury retrograde gets, I invite you to weave it with the heart energy of this month, the blood moon eclipse energy and Equinox energy.

Take some time to slow down and re-lease, re-assess, re-imagine, re-create and re-member who the heck you are and what you want and why you want it.

(We are focusing on that in Flourish right now!)

Spring Equinox arrives in the Northern Hemisphere on March 20th.

Ostara (Spring Equinox) is that delicious place of change.

March has that energy of transition, caught between winter’s grasp and spring’s open arms.

The Equinox brings the time when light is perfectly balanced with the darkness.

It’s the time to re-lease the hold of winter and start planting your seeds of intention! This is a supremely powerful time to work with Mumma Nature’s energy.

Which all ties into the energy of this Month, the Full Blood Moon and how to step into our resilience.

And again, as I said – I have created a super yummy offering called Rooted in Resiliency, that you can do at your own pace with a community to share ideas with and that will be coming out next week along with more information on the Spring Equinox.

Okay, with all that being said – let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to share their wisdom and insight with you this week, the glorious “Love Your Inner Goddess” guides came out big and bold. Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as it would be rude not to).

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth. Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world. We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK.

Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense. She wants so much more for you. She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny. She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart. She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you.

You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true. There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed. Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity. She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ON YOUR OWN TERMS

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

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

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

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

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

WARRIOR GODDESS

This is not a time to play it safe, nor is it time to allow another to take the lead in your life. You need to believe in yourself and trust that the instincts guiding you are correct. If you need to take action, do it. Speak up: say yes; say no. Trust your inner truth completely.

Be bold.

The Universe will answer your boldest actions with affirmation, and you’ll move through the consequences of your actions with grace and courage, ending up exactly where you are meant to be.

You are ready. Life has been preparing you. Your experiences have made you stronger and wiser. You have spirit and you have courage. Believe in yourself! You are a Warrior Goddess, and empowered, divine woman.

Trust that your foundations are strong. Put your faith in the Universe. It has been your life coach and guide all along, helping you build up your inner resources, encouraging you to realise the power that has always been within you.

The Universe believes in you.

When you feel it is time to take a step, take it with confidence. When you ask for help from the Universe, ask with boldness and total confidence that your prayers will be answered in the best possible way. You have the right to require that your personal space be respected. You have divine permission and encouragement to claim your rightful place in the world. You are meant to say no to behaviour that is dishonest, manipulative and bullying.

The warrior goddess uses her sacred anger to set a boundary and speak her truth, not to attack another. She uses her inner fire to live with integrity, even if the right choices for her seem hard or frightening at the time. She knows that the Universe has her back, so she is willing to be true to herself no matter what.

She places integrity above all else. She knows that compromising her self-respect to win a battle will end up losing her the war.

YOU ARE THE LIGHT

You are going through a spiritual initiation. This is happening because you are ready for it, even if it doesn’t always feel that way. The way to pass this test is to rely on the light within you. Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead.

Don’t let fear or doubt make you distrust the path ahead. Don’t give in to despair or believe that things will not work out. You are learning to trust that the Universe knows what it is doing. There are great and beautiful things meant for you, and no matter what appears to be right now, they will come to you in the perfect way and at the perfect time.

Light is powerful. Some people don’t understand this. The fear in their hearts makes them cynical. That fear stops them from seeing what is true. In the absence of truth, they hold on to their judgements instead. They scoff at what they don’t understand. Be careful of allowing such people to influence you.

It’s not wise to take advice from people who are investing in creating pain. You can have compassion for them, but you must not underestimate how their negativity can taint your trust in the Universe. When we feel the light within us, when we trust in it, we are able to move beyond the fear and negativity that exists in this world. You have it within you to be that light.

The only thing that can trap you is the choice to believe in the negative and give in to the fear.

That’s not you, so don’t choose that for yourself. Don’t listen to people who would cause you to question the light. The light within you is the real you.

Be at peace, beautiful one, for the positive power of the light in you is stronger than any darkness. Keep your faith in the light. All will be well.

Holy Hannah, you seriously can not make this shit up! Releasing old patterns, being bold and being the light. Now more than ever we all need that! So delicious lovely, I wish for you a fabulous week filled with ease, joy and deep belly chortles. May you always remember how special and important you are and that the world needs YOU! Big hugs and squeezes.

See you next week where we dive into Ostara and Rooted in Resiliency.
