Welcome to March, Resiliency and Spring Equinox!

· ·

Happy, Happy Magickal, Marvelous, Magnificent, Merry, Manifesting March Monday! 

Whoot! Whoot!  March is here and I am thrilled (trust me if you could see the happy dance I am doing you would laugh).

Whoot it’s the first Monday of March (frigging love March), as we head to Spring Equinox, we are slowly coming out of hibernation, the flowers are popping up and there is that sense of promise and hope in the air.  (Aren’t those delicious words right now?)

Why am I so pumped about March – because Spring Equinox is almost here!!!  Now you may be shaking your head and thinking – yeah, so what Jenn.  Oh little one, Spring Equinox is a huge energetic time as it’s the time of Birth.  The Birth of ideas, goals, desires and dreams – it is positively delicious.

Now you be thinking – I don’t have the energy for that as the world feels like it is in chaos.  I totally get it, as yes, there is a lot of fear, chaos, and downright garbage being pumped out.

However, more than ever this is the time to Birth the new, the communities, the dreams and that is where Resiliency comes in.

As to step into our power and our gifts we have to be practicing resilience more than ever in today’s climate!

What does it mean to be resilient?

Resilience means being able to adapt to life’s misfortunes and setbacks. 

To stand in your centre from a place of truth and Sovereignty and calm whilst chaos swirls around you.  

Funnily enough for the last couple of months this theme has been coming in and offering me insights.  

Then in the wee hours of March 1st (the White Rabbit day in my world), I woke up at 2am and got a massive download about Resiliency.  

So with the approaching Equinox – the time of Birth, desires and dreams.  It seems the perfect time to offer a glorious course that can be done as a home study or as a group study on Resilience.

And by Resilience I mean, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and most certainly the nervous system!

What does it mean, how to embody it and how to integrate it into your day to day so that you hold your centre, stand in your truth and Sovereignty and move forward with calm and ease.

So keep your eyes peeled (such a gross expression, where does it even come from?!), as there will be more information coming and we start at Equinox (March 20th).

Interestingly enough the energy for March is “All About The Heart”

“We could have put many themes on this intense month but the bottom line is that the focus is on the heart; relationships, issues around love, healing the wounds of the ego and dealing with old patterns (some ancestral) around self-worth, betrayal, regrets, and karma. Phew!

March also promises some upheaval and unexpected shifts supporting change and transformation. This does not come without challenge and potentially painful truths, but is necessary in our personal evolution. There are many cycles ending and many cycles beginning this month forcing the letting go of past attachments and welcoming in new beginnings.”

The heart needs to take the reins and, using its intuitive intelligence, set a direction that is aligned with your emotional truth and values. 

Which totally ties in with Equinox and living from a place of Resiliency!

Okay, enough chuntering on, let’s go meet your guides for this week.

These are glorious new guides who invite you into the realm of time travel.  

So darling one, just relax for a moment.  Give your shoulders a wiggle, move your jaw from side to side and take a glorious deep breath in and then sigh it out.  With the energy of March swirling around you, breathe into your heart.  See it strong, calm, true and at ease.  Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that make you tingle.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a peek, shall we?

VAST VISTAS

Nomads, Steppes of Mongolia

We are visiting Mongolian nomads on the plateau of central Asia, an area currently landlocked between China and Russian Siberia.

Here, the sky is incredibly expansive.  It feels like we can see forever on these vast vistas.

We feel a sense of freedom here as we travel with a tribe following their reindeer.  These nomadic people have lived here for thousands of years, migrating the immense grassy plains, mountainous regions, upland steppes, and deserts of Mongolia.

Every time we stop, we set up a camp.  In the middle of the night, when we step outside the yurt, it seems that there can be no other place with such a vast expanse of the heavens.

In the morning, as we stomp our feet on the ground to warm up, the horizons seem to stretch in every direction, seemingly all the way to eternity.

Widen your horizons to see the bigger picture.

This is not the time to think small.  Think outside the box.

There is the potential of big changes ahead.  Be willing to be unconventional in projects, relationships, and ideas.  Know that you can choose any direction you desire, but before you go forward, look in all directions to see the potential outcomes.

Vast vistas are ahead for you.  It’s easy to get caught up in the small details of life and forget the bigger view.  

This is a time of expansion and even a time of travel and new adventures.

If you receive an opportunity to travel, go for it.

If you can step into a different direction in life, don’t hesitate.

Take it!

COURAGE

Vikings in the New World

What an exciting adventure!  We’ve landed in Newfoundland around the year 1000 C.E to visit the newly arrived Vikings.  

We’re here with Leif Eriksson, watching his people prepare the foundations of a new settlement.  As we walk through their community, we’re impressed by the vigor, physical strength, and grace of these men and women.

It seems to radiate from the center of their being.

What remarkable courage these early settlers had to cross the Atlantic Ocean in their longships – open-air, wooden boats – during huge storms and inclement weather.

They set forth without certainty about where they would land or when they’d get there.

Guided by the stars, the winds, and their connection to their gods, they travelled forward into the unknown.

There are times to hold back and deliberate about life, and times to move forward with passion, power and daringness.

If there is something you wanted to do or say or act upon, now is the time to go forward.  

Don’t back down; face your fears.

Act on your impulse now, and success will follow.

Being courageous doesn’t mean that you are not at all afraid.  Being fearless means just that – to fear less.  There are no certainties about the outcomes, but be willing to take a risk and step forward anyway.

Be resolute in honouring your truth, and speak up for yourself.  Live with passion!

As a warrior of the light, you must step beyond self imposed limitations to be a way shower for others.

Through you, others will be inspired to find and act upon their truth.

Trust that you are unstoppable.

EXPANSION

Planet Jupiter

Today we are time travelling to the planet Jupiter.  What a ride it is!

As we land, we can feel our muscles strengthening in its strong gravity field.  

Even though Jupiter is physically uninhabitable by humans, the mystic energy here is remarkable.  You and I are both in awe of Jupiter’s 79 incredible moons.

Everything feels so stunningly expansive – understandably so, as this planet is 318 times as massive as our own planet.  

In Roman mythology, the god Jupiter, for whom the planet was named, was considered to be sky god and king of the gods.  (In Greek mythology, he was known as Zeus.)

In astrology, Jupiter is connected with principles of growth, expansion, healing, prosperity, good fortune, and miracles.

Your life is expanding in profound and wondrous ways.

Vitality and wide open opportunities are at hand.  Focus on what you desire to increase in your life, and let it flow to you.  Timing is everything, and the time is now, so seize the day!

Anything and everything is possible.

If there is anything in your life that you want to expand, this is the time to nurture it.

Good fortune, growth, expansion, healing, prosperity, and miracles await you.

Activate this escaping power and activity by believing that anything is possible……..and it is.

Focus on your deepest dreams and allow the energy of Jupiter to propel you.

Ready?

Woosah!  Glorious guides as we step into March.  So darling one, take time this week to do things that nourish you and bring you back to centre.  Turn off the TV and the news, reach out to a friend, go for a walk.  Be gentle with your gorgeous self and keep your eyes peeled for more information on Rooted in Resiliency.

Massive hugs and squeezes,

New Moon in Pisces and the Coldest Night of the Year.

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

(Yes, I know, I know – I just love how it sounds at the moment!)

We are coming to the close of February, holy hannah, another whizz bang month it feels like with a lot of turmoil and chaos swirling in the collective!

In fact it is the last Monday of February, can you believe it! And in usual Mumma Nature style the weather has gone bonkers!  Winds of 90 km/hr have been sweeping through over and over, and atmospheric rivers galore! 

In other words it is frigging breezy and wet (so please don’t tell me there is no such thing as global warming!)

Which made me think that it’s appropriate that across many communities nationally, February 25th is The Coldest Night of The Year Walk.  

This walk started in 2011 to raise funds and awareness  around homelessness (and I loathe the phrase “unhoused”) and poverty.  

The funds all go to a local charity that is on the streets and helps to fund food, clothes, support and programmes for a very vulnerable part of our communities.  

Having spent my Valentine’s Day wandering through various tent housing, sharing little love packages of gorgeous cookies, and listening to some very intense stories, I am so proud that we walk to acknowledge what we see, hear and witness.

There is no turning a blind eye and dismissing with judgement.

It reminds me how fucking blessed I am.  How blessed most of us are!

With the intense winds that can literally blow me over and the torrential rain, when I’m out with the doggos it feels challenging, but I know that I have a warm home to go back to.  I can turn on the kettle and make a nice cuppa and my clothes if wet, I can change.  

But, what if all you have is a tarp and a concrete sidewalk?  

What if there is no way to get warm and dry, let alone open your fridge or cupboard to select something to eat?

For many of us, if we go outside and it’s too cold or wet, we go back into the warmth.

Life holds no 100% guarantees at all, other than you are born, you die.  And having listened to a wee couple in their 80s on Valentines that had been on the street for just over a month due to the landlord tripling their rent………..   

It made my heart sad.  

So remember, we are part of a collective (whether you recognise it or not).  Smile at someone, take a moment to talk, offer what you can – even if it is only time.  

But we are all interconnected and it’s important to be aware of that.

Okay, now I will get off my soapbox!  Lol.  

“The Pisces New Moon on February 27th brings the last lunar cycle of the astrological year and our official entrance into Eclipse Season.

Needless to say, this February New Moon will be an impactful one and will open a portal into one of the most transformative points of the year.”

This New Moon asks us to show up as our authentic selves and trust in the innate wisdom that lives within.

What do you do best? What are your gifts and talents? Take time to celebrate your skills and all you have mastered. Acknowledge where your gifts and talents lie- and don’t say you don’t have any!

We all have things we are innately good at. So, forget societal expectations and limitations, and go deeper. Reflecting on these is a good way to inspire conscious action under the New Moon.

So with both of those things to perk, how blessed you are and the New Moon let’s crack on with the reading.

These are glorious new guides and they were adamant they wanted to come play.

They bring the full energy of the Divine Mother, Mother Mary, the Divine Feminine – you name it and they most certainly have a lot to share.

So darling one, just take a moment.  Take a moment to count your blessings, take a moment to understand that you are fully interconnected (even with the people you judge and don’t like).  Just breathe.  Allow your gorgeous heart to open and soften and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

OUR LADY OF RIPENING ON THE VINE

“I ask you to surrender your future thinking to me.  Although your future contains the promise of great blessings, do not let this distract you from the blessing I bestow upon you in this moment.  I ask you to open your arms to my blessings in the here and now.  You are the sweet fruit, heavy on the vine.  The time for harvest has come.  This is your time.”

Many of us who love the Holy Mother are dreamers.  We might be practical and hard-working, attending to the details of daily life and spiritual consciousness, but we have hope in our hearts.

Yet that hope may be for the future – our future, that of our children, of our planet.

This hope is a precious light that is needed in the world.  Yet our light of hope is also needed in the here and now.  

We need to be living the Divine now, not only dreaming of a more divinely aligned life in a fantasy of the future.

Live your light now; to benefit yourself and the world with your presence.  Now.  Yes, we are always growing, yet there is a readiness within you now.  

There is something within you, something of you, that is ready.  Even if the immediate reality doesn’t match a fantasy that you have once held about how life would be when you would finally share more of yourself with the world, you are still ready and this is your time to shine.  

The Mother asks you to honour the light that is ignited within you now, and to act upon it with utter faith.  The dreamers are needed in this present moment, you see.

We can help the sacred becoming, the healing of the world according to the Divine Mother’s grace, by how we choose to be at this time.  

Now is the time to trust.  There is so much waiting for you in this moment.  

Gather your harvest.  Let your divine inheritance come to you now, as naturally as fruit ripening on the vine.

You are needed.  

OUR LADY OF THE RESURRECTION

“The eternal light dwells in my heart and as you enter into my heart, held safe in my love for  you, that light becomes visible to you.  It will show you the way through any darkness, and help you understand the purpose of past suffering, so that you can let it go and be at peace, free from confusion, shame or doubt.  There is divine purpose within all that is.  You have been struggling and now it is time for rest.  Step into the light of my heart now, beloved, and let the darkness go.  The time is drawing near for your resurrection and release.”

It is a strange paradox that when we are truly open to life, we must be prepared to die many deaths before it is time for our physical life to end.  

We might suffer the deaths of relationships, of ideals, of identities, even of certain hopes and dreams.  If we can mourn these deaths, give them proper attention and due acknowledgment, grieving in whatever way is respectful and truthful, then those deaths become sacred sacrifices on the altar of new life.

If we try to rush past these many deaths, pushing them to one side out of fear that they may mean something terrible or frightening, then we will suffer more than needs be.

Perhaps we become fearful if we feel that we are not in control of life and cannot prevent its powerful unfolding, because we do not trust where life is leading us.  Then too, we miss our chance to make a sacrifice and feel more connected with life, and with death as a natural part of life.

We don’t need to be scared, we can accept that they are signs that we are growing and life is flowing.  We can even use them to gain confidence that a new direction, a new life, is calling us.  There is always so much more to come.  Always.  No matter how old we may be, or how jaded we may feel at times, there is always boundless life awaiting us.  All that is needed is a willingness for us to be open to receiving it.  

Let Our Lady of Resurrection lift you up from even the deepest sorrow and gently urge you into new light, new understanding, and new life.

Take heed, beloved, your time of darkness is swiftly drawing to a close and a new day is soon to be upon you.

Breathe, trust, embrace.

OUR LADY OF THE ROSE CROWN

“You are my child and a royal divine being.  I protect  your spiritual deeping now, as you descend further into the living divine heart, and know all to be love.  As the mysteries reveal themselves to you now, divine rapture awaits you.  I shall keep you grounded and authentic, productive in the world that needs your light, even as I guide you into ecstatic communion with  your holy nature.”

No matter where we think we are on our spiritual path, there is always somewhere, and something deeper to experience.  

You are about to enter into another level of spiritual experience.  This new level will be appropriate and healing for you – taking you naturally along in your spiritual progress.

What might be suitable for another is unlikely to be exactly right for you.  Our Lady watches over you with all knowing tenderness and fierce protection.  Only what you need, will come to you.  

In order to be prepared, we might have to be challenged in a relationship that really stretches or breaks our heart.  In that situation we are learning to love more unconditionally, to either let the relationship go or stay with it, depending on what is right for us.  

We might experience weeks, months or even  years of not really knowing, with any certainty, if we are on the right path or living the life we are supposed to be living.  In that continued crisis, we are learning how to remain present, to remain open and to learn to trust, even in the absence of clarity.  

Or perhaps everything in our life seems to be upside down; a loved one is struggling, or our own inability to resolve an issue that has troubled us deeply for some time, and is causing us to feel almost unbearable anguish.

No matter what the crisis or challenge, the way that we learned to respond and grow through it provided us with the development that we needed to be able to sustain the next level of divine experience.  

Love is the most powerful force in our universe.  It is in everything and reveals itself in unlimited ways.  

To encounter this love, to be open to it, ready to receive it and be changed, illuminated, irradiated by it.

Our Lady of the Rose Crown comes to tell you that you have been in preparation and now the time is fast approaching, or is already upon you, whereby you are opening to more divine realisation.  No matter what you may initially think, what you are being shown right now is more of the divine in its mysterious, creative, funny and unfathomable genius.

You truly are a magnificent royal child of the Divine.  Own it!

Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer – you can’t make this shit up!

Sending you huge blessings and love as we close the month of February down.  I invite you to allow your feelings to rise and be released, cleanse your heart and your mind and remember – you are here for a reason!  There is something you are meant to share, so please do.

Leo Full Moon and What’s Love Got to Do With It?

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

How are you?  We have had quite a bit of snow (which we don’t normally get) and freezing temperatures and I think this huge city has 1 snowplough!  So it has been “interesting” getting out and about, lol.  

So here we are in February and this week we are going to explore the energy of the month, the glorious Leo Full Moon and the Love day.

February comes in with the energy of  Discernment

Discernment is one of the themes for the year and it begins to influence us this month with an invitation to be careful what we ask for, careful about who and what we believe, to whom and what we listen to, where we put our energy, and to be most careful and discerning about what we think, say and do.  Lena

Very good advice!

On top of that we have the Full Moon in Leo on Wednesday, February 12th.

“The Leo Full Moon holds some erratic energy, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. Perhaps we need a shake-up. Perhaps we need to look at things from a different vantage point. As the poet Rumi once shared-  ‘Do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know the side you are used to is better than the one to come?’ And that feels to be the motto of this Full Moon.

Change is in the air, and perhaps some instability too, but we are being called to step into our power, find our courage, and stand proud in what we know to be true in our hearts. We are being called to trust ourselves and to listen to our inner wisdom. The truer we are to ourselves, the easier time we will have working with this Full Moon energy.”

Do you see how Discernment and the Leo Full Moon are weaving together?

As I started writing this reading my guides came in with an amazing soundtrack of love songs, songs from my parents era “Love is in the air”.  Tina Turner rocking “What’s love got to do with it”, and a shed ton more!

I had “thought” I was going to write about Valentine’s Day and how it is in essence a made up day that Hallmark and whomever sells the choccies and red roses are doing very well with.

Yet again, I got a huge smack down on that from what I call my “posse”, and when they smack, I pay the frig attention, so it’s not going to be what I thought – so stick with me, lol – or don’t, your choice.

So most certainly in Western cultures Valentine’s day is being celebrated.  The stores are filled with gitchy things to buy, a single rose is $7 and the price of chocolate has gone up by 35%.  Wow.  

Personally I find Valentine’s Day irritates me, not because I don’t believe in love, but why on earth do we need just one day where we are meant to be loving, and why is it only focused on romantic love?  

What if you aren’t in a romantic relationship?  What if you’ve lost your partner?  I mean for criminies sake, why aren’t we celebrating all forms of love – family, friends, community, nature, spiritual and most importantly self love?  

Because, let’s be honest – without self love and appreciation for your own gorgeous being, you don’t have anything!  (And NO self love is NOT selfish!)  

Had to clear that up as one of my clients a while ago said that they felt selfish taking time for themselves and doing something nurturing. 

Self-love is all about nourishing your mind, spirituality, and physical body. Try to aim at all three of these to create a more well-rounded self-care plan. Focus on activities you get excited about doing. This is all about you after all, if it doesn’t give you a little thrill, why bother? 

To fully love, forgive and accept yourself is magickal and allows the Divine to flow through you.

So I invite you to think about love and romance in a whole different way this year.

Look at ways you can increase your self-love. How can you take better care of yourself? 

How can you be your own best lover and your own best partner? 

Offer yourself all the things you would love to have from a lover. 

Book romantic dates for yourself. 

Make love to yourself slowly, and with intention.

Spend time journaling your feelings. 

Say all those wonderful words that you say to your best friend, to build them up, to yourself.

If you’re struggling, get the help and support that you need to release the doubts and fears.

Fall in love with your glorious self every day, not just Valentine’s Day.  

And remember, love all of yourself – even the jiggly bits lol, because you are so, so very worth it! 

Use the energy of this Leo Full  Moon that comes on February 12th, to really tap into your emotions and write a love letter to yourself, of the changes you have witnessed and who you are becoming!

I’ve created a glorious Self Love Spell, which is an easy and lovely candle ritual for you to do.  

Okay, I have chuntered on enough, so 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.

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time.  Woosah!

Okay dear heart, just settle into yourself.  Allow your breath to find its natural rhythm.  Just breathe into all the corners of your glorious being, and allow in your mind’s eye a glorious vortex to start swirling.  As it opens, see it filled with love, all sorts of love and allow it to soothe you and to remind you that you are love incarnate.  Then when you’re ready pick the card or cards that dance around your heart.  

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

FREAKING BEAUTIFUL

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

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

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

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

BEAUTIFUL BANDIT

You can choose right now to feel good about yourself.  If you’ve been beating yourself up, stop it now.  Don’t let anyone else decide how you should feel about yourself.  Taking responsibility for your actions means that when you have done something that you feel is out of integrity, you do something about it that is constructive and useful.  Shaming yourself with judgement, or allowing another to steal your self-esteem, is neither of those things.

The Divine Mother is telling you to forgive yourself and use your energy not to live the best life that you can.  It’s time to take your life back.

You are one tough sweetheart, a spiritual gangster,a  beautiful bandit, stealing back from the unworthy that which rightfully belongs with you.  You have certain spiritual rights that cannot be denied you.  Your dignity, power and grace, your sense of beauty and self-esteem, your chosen belief systems, your energy and your right to take up space in this world rightfully belong to your soul.  Your faith in your spiritual connection with the Universe and your sense of your life purpose belong to your soul, too.  So do your joy, your laughter and your enjoyment of life, your belief in your own purity of heart and the goodness of your own being.  Your right to love yourself is owned by your soul, too.  

Even when you make mistakes, the great Mother loves and forgives you, knowing that you are doing your best and are her precious one.  You have a spiritual right to be free from torment, cruelty and mental anguish.  You alone own the right to choose your thoughts and claim your freedom to make your own choices.  You are fierce with wisdom.  

Anything that you feel has been taken from you unfairly shall be taken back by you.  Claim what is yours by spiritual right.  

PEACOCK PRIESTESS

Daily life can get us down before we even realise what is happening. Trying to do it all can push us beyond our limits, draining our energy and stealing our joy.

One moment, we are on top of the world; the next moment, we wonder what happened and why we cannot rally our spirit. If we do not learn how to rest, exhaustion, crankiness and illness eventually force our hand. It takes longer to break down and recover – and is much more painful than it is to learn to rest as part of our lifestyle.

Rest is not only a way to prevent unnecessary suffering, it also has its own value. When we are in restful quiet, we can hear our inner voice and the guidance of spirit much more clearly. We can feel gratitude and take delight in what brings us pleasure. Rest is part of how we live well.

Peacock Priestess reminds you that you can see taking rest as an act of love and a way to be a good role model. Don’t allow guilt or shame to stop you from taking delight in your downtime. What kind of rest you need will vary. It could be a long nap, painting, listening to music, writing poetry or practicing meditation, a bath with candles, visiting a temple or church to sit quietly , working in your garden, playing with animals or going for a walk and being in nature, soaking up her beautiful healing energy.

There are many ways to rest. Try some. Find out what you enjoy.

If you feel impatient for something to happen – or worried that you are not accomplishing all that you want to achieve quickly enough – then take heart.

The Universe is working with you, not against you, to bring your dreams to life. Even times when not much seems to be happening are a part of this creative process, balancing out other times when energy becomes active and intense.

What will be most helpful for you and your dreams right now is to rest. During that pleasurable rest, behind the scenes, some spiritual magic is going to be created.

Woosah!  Those were glorious messages for the week!

So gorgeous one, sending you big love, squeezes, warm cups of tea and a soothed soul.  

May your heart be full and your spirit light!  Try out the candle ritual and remember – You are loved, you are worthy and you are amazing!  

Welcome to 2025, and Today’s Wolf Moon!

· ·

Dearest Gentle Reader,

We are slowly, quietly, calmly entering into 2025, and all that it portends! 

How are you most delicious lovely?  It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a few weeks!  And I will say I spent those couple of weeks facilitating The Omen Days (which is such a glorious way to enter a new year), and all the amazing women who participated really blew my hair back!

Welcome to 2025.  

I would love to tell you this will be a gentle year, but it’s going to be intense!

While our numerology points to a year of endings, astrologically, we are shown that all endings pave the way for new beginnings.  

As in 2025, we remarkably have four major planets and the lunar nodes changing signs. It is incredibly rare to have so many planets changing signs in one year, so this definitely makes 2025 stand out!

Also, remember we enter the Year of the Snake on January 29th, and if we look at the Snake it is continually shedding the old to make way for the new…..

Thus, instead of spending pages going through the above (as those of you who have signed up for Opening The Doors on 2025 will receive), let’s talk about today’s Full Moon.

Beneath the Full Moon of January 2025, something magical stirs and whispers secrets of old. The Wolf Moon brings a luminous and mysterious energy as it lights up the sky. 

January’s Full Moon meaning reminds us of our connection with the wild spirit of wolves.

The Full Wolf Moon occurs on January 13th, 2025, reaching its peak at 5:27 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

January gets its name from Janus, the Roman god of all beginnings. 

Janus is often depicted with two faces, one looking to the past and the other to the future. This makes January the perfect month for reflection and fresh starts. 

Which is why we are starting Flourish on January 18th!

If you have been sitting on the fence, there are only two spots left and you won’t regret gifting one to yourself!

As the New Year dawns, the world remains cocooned in darkness during these short, fleeting days. 

Yet, we’re hopeful as we nestle in our homes during these cozy, chilly nights. 

The Wolf Moon is a time for rituals involving inner strength, protection, and connecting with Winter’s wisdom.

There are so many rituals to do at this Moon Time that connect you to your inner strength and Winter’s Wisdom.

A simple one to do is go Howl at the Moon.

In a place where you feel comfortable, stand with your feet apart and your hands on your hips in your best superhero pose (Grey’s Anatomy fans will know what I’m talking about). Studies (like this one from Harvard) have shown that if you maintain this position for five minutes, you will perform better at a difficult task. It also helps build confidence.

However, why stop there? Think of a negative feeling or stressful situation that’s burdened you. Now, while maintaining your superhero pose, give a few big howls. Imagine that worry and negativity leaving your body. In its place is nothing but tranquil energy and peace.

This can be a wonderful way to release tension, anxiety, or heavy emotions. I mean, at minimum, it’s a big mood booster.

I’ve also created some fabulous Journal prompts to help you dig a bit deeper.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that flew out and at me this week  are the amazing Divine Circus Oracle, which made me laugh my soxs off – as with all the energies swirling and the bizarre weather patterns that are happening, the world does feel like that right now.

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to, would be exceptionally rude!)

“What is life if not a Divine Circus?  Life might seem ordinary at times, yet when we look more closely, it is bursting with creative diversity, constantly evolving, pulling rugs out from underneath our feet (usually just at the moment we think we have everything under control) and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us  moments earlier.  Life is magical, thrilling, sometimes strange and even scary.  It can inspire you and touch your soul, inviting you to discover the unique magic within you, to dare to live it, to express it, to play with possibilities and embrace what sets you apart from the crowd. “

Thus, I invite you to breathe and just BE with your gorgeous self here at this moment.  Take a few lovely, rich, nourishing breaths and let the cares of the moment slide off like wee little raindrops.  Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

If you need some help and support releasing the “shoulds”, the weight of energy around you I have a lovely guided visualisation for you.  It’s fun, we are going on a yomp and an explore!

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s Go See Shall We?

JOKER IS WILD

The Universe has a sense of humour, but never at your expense.  It is laughing with you, not at you.  You’ll see this for yourself as the Joker weaves her magic in your life, bringing you the grace that is beyond all reason, the necessary ingredient to ensure you win with the hand you have been dealt by life.  

There’s nothing impossible when the Joker appears.  Her wild ways can transform a losing streak into a lifelong love affair with Lady Luck.

Strap yourself in and prepare for the ride of a lifetime.  The Joker has come to you and the Joker is wild.  Unpredictable and brilliant, she brings you a message.  

You are being empowered to overcome all odds.  So you are going to win.  No doubts, no dramas, but not necessarily in a way that you expect either!  

She is sending the best possible situation to you even now.  It might startle you, like a sudden light in the middle of the night, but it will be welcome nonetheless.

The Joker is the highest trump card to beat all others.  

No matter how much another may seem to have the upper hand, or how many forces seem to be against you, even if you feel like a lone wolf about to be mauled by a pack of hungry lions, the Joker always wins.  

She comes out of the blue, and changes destiny from darkness to light.  She brings the brilliant solution that ends a problem, the way through that is best and brightest.  

You probably won’t see it coming.  It will probably be in a way that subverts everything you once believed to be true. 

But it will be a welcome trick by the Universe, a loving joke that opens your heart and helps you realise that this vast impersonal universe personally knows and cares for you, so intimately and with such meticulous care. 

Just don’t expect to feel in control of the process, for the Joker is wild and moves according to her own genius, but always blesses you with what will work best, beyond compare, now and always.  

RED COUNTESS

Deep within, you know what is true and what to do (or not do).  Yet there is so much noise and distraction in the world, and even at times in our own minds, that listening for our inner wisdom can seem like trying to hear gentle birdsong in the midst of a rock concert.  

Even so, you are hearing an inner truth, and deep down, you know it.  Can you trust that it is safe to not only hear your inner voice but act on it too?

There is something that you know.  You’ve felt, sensed, heard or realised this truth more than once.  Even if others see or feel differently, you just know what you know, even if you don’t quite know how you know it!  

Give your truths value.  Hold your feelings and insights in high enough esteem to pay attention to them, to give yourself time to process what you think, feel and sense. 

Know that they’re worth acting on, even if that action just means to trust more and stop worrying.   

If you cannot figure out what your inner truths are, or you feel confused by conflicting thoughts and feelings, torn between head and heart, then you are in a state of information overload.  

You need to switch off, discharge some excess mental and emotional energy and take a break.  Give yourself some time out from the crazy noise and constant distractions of the world so you can get in touch with what is true for you.

SILVER SIREN

When is an enchantment not enchanting?  When it is a spell that you allow to consume your free will, even as it promises so much and yet delivers so little.  

The Silver Siren sings her song, a pretty poison to the soul.  Her false allure tempts the mind, even whilst the heart feels that something is not quite right.  

Your power will come from discerning the truth and allowing her false promises no place in your heart.

If you compromise your integrity you will find that what you have obtained was not worth the price you paid for it, no matter how much you believed it would be otherwise.  It simply will not be worthwhile.  

The Silver Siren is a false light that is so very enticing but so destroying.  To disempower the false light, you must stay true to what your heart says. 

No matter how much you may fear you’ll regret it later on, simply say no to that which is unworthy, to that which does not hold the truth of love within.  Even if a person declares that they are utterly enlightened and only interested in your highest good; even if the opportunity at hand is “too good to miss”, making your mind needy and confused, follow your heart – if it’s not a Hell Yes, it’s a NO!

You are being given an opportunity for empowerment.  It is time to trust yourself and stand firm with your truths, and to experience the priceless sense of love, safety, security, peace and self-possession that this brings.  

With this, your soul can sing its own song, a song that shares true light, the lightness of a heart that lives in peaceful truth with the world.

Holy Hannah, you can’t make this shit up!  What fabulous guides to kick us off in January.  

Take time this week to really FEEL into what you want to experience this year, and how you want to ALIGN with it.

Use the Wolf Moon energy to really release and allow you to dream.  

Big hugs and squeezes, and if you want to join us for Flourish, there are 2 spots open and we start January 18th.

The Practice of Presence and leaning into the Pause. Solstice is Coming!

· ·

Happy Magickal, Meteoric, Meretricious, Moodling, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you gorgeous one?  I hope you are not getting your tinsel in a tangle or allowing your lights to get zapped as the holiday season approaches.

This week we are going to explore leaning into the Pause, that space that allows us to take a breath, reflect, just BE and BE open to inviting in something new, (which is all the various energies at this time!)  But before we dive into that…….

First off, apologies as quite a few of you said you never received the invitation to the Omen Day’s Journey that went out last week.  Most peculiar as some of you did receive it and others didn’t.  

However, don’t fret pet, there is still time to join this year’s amazing Omen Day’s journey, as we have a gathering on Solstice to tap into that delicious energy and open the container, and then we start on December 26th.

So if you have been looking for a more meaningful way to close the year, and get insights into 2025, this is for you!

Yesterday we had the final Full Moon of 2024 in Gemini which was a huge (note that word) RELEASE Moon.  And the interesting thing with this moon is we experienced a lunar rarity.

What do I mean?  In other words we experienced a Major Lunar Standstill which only happens every 18.6 years.  

This means that the moon rises and sets at its northernmost and southernmost positions on the horizon which creates this standstill energy as it is visible far longer than any of the other moons.  

A standstill, a pause, a suspension if you will……..

Then let’s look at the Christian season of Advent, which invites us to see that waiting and expectation have power. 

This is counter to our instant gratification culture. 

When we not only wait, but prepare ourselves for what may be, we can be more open and ready to receive whatever arrives.  A pause, a stillness, a presence.  

Yet us glorious humans rush from one thing to the next, not allowing that space to be empty.

Sometimes we don’t even acknowledge all our growth and progress, because we have to keep filling the space.  And in the holiday season it ramps up even more.  

Which reminds me of a glorious quote from Howard Thurman that says:

In the stillness of quiet, if we listen, we can hear the whisper of the heart giving strength to weakness, courage to fear, hope to despair………..

So can you practise being Present, Leaning into the Pause and just saying Woosah?

Use the glorious Solstice energy to help you with this!

Oh and I meant to say to all those who have emailed and asked if there are still spots available for the Opening the Doors on 2025 reading – yes, there are a few left!

Now enough chuntering from me, let’s crack on with the reading.   When I went to the cards to ask who would like to be present this week it made my heart smile to see who showed up.  The amazing Faery Blessing guides were most adamant.  As after all, who doesn’t need a Blessing?

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to.

Faeries are present in every droplet of water, every blade of grass – they are everywhere there is a trace of nature – thus every field, flower, and forest is theirs.  They inhabit the wild rainforests and the old castles; they dance within standing stones and burial mounds; they are on the top of mountains and within the grove deep in the valley; and they appear in the cracks in the pavement and beneath the cities in the old, tangled tree roots.  Faeries are part of this world, and they were here before we were born into this world, and they know us better than we know ourselves.  

For humans, many of us have lost our sense of play, our sense of relationship with nature, our courage to be ourselves – as well as our hope, creativity, and personal power.  We have looked outside of ourselves and nature and the sacred ones for answers, and in doing so, we have become quite lost.  The blessings of the faeries can bring us back into relationship with ourselves, back into relationship with the elements and the elementals, so that we can become more at home within the world, while creating a personal world which supports our dreams, our wishes, and our purpose.  

Yes!  Positively perfect!

So gorgeous one take a breath.  Just a normal breath and then as you carry on breathing allow it to slow down.  Breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth.  Allow in your mind’s eye a gorgeous rainbow swirl to form, this pattern is made of release, stillness and peace.  

It gently removes the heaviness and invites you into the ease and the quiet and it melds with the abundance and appreciation of who you are.  As you breathe just let it swirl, you don’t have to control it.  

If you need to go a bit further, I have a wee visualisation for  you.

Then with this energy pick the card or cards that call to you.  What Blessing is for you this week?

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

A BLESSING FROM QUEEN MAB

The Faery Gift of Being the Ruler of Your Own World

With this faery gift from the formidable and enchanting faery queen, Queen Mab, comes the blessing of being the owner of your own life.  This is a powerful blessing indeed, for with this blessing comes the most precious gift of all, that of knowing that your life is yours to live.  

With this blessing, let you now take up the reins of your life, let you decide what it is you do, and who it is you are, and who you are now becoming.  It is your life, this wild and sweet thing, to be lived only once, and it is rare and priceless.  You shall no longer be owned, nor forced, nor pushed, nor pulled, for with her gift comes the solidity of determining your own fate – for you are a being who has often been pressured to give away the crown that declares that you are the sovereign.  With this blessing, it is returned to you.

Let yourself be a queen, a king, and know your world is as great as any other person’s.  Your life is a jewel, and no more shall you spend it pleasing others.  When this blessing comes to you, all who you know you will love and support you, and you will now take back the power that you gave away.  You will climb the stairs to your throne and look upon your world and know that you will be a strong leader of your own soul.  And you will inspire others to do the same.

With this gift from Queen Mab will come the sure knowledge of what is wise for you to do, and what would be foolish, and to know the difference between pleasing others and doing what is in the very best interest of the path of your soul.

You faery friend, are a magnificent being, and your life, your world, and your very being are royal.  Be most loyal to your ownself, and know now the gift of great and deep self-respect, and of choosing what is right for you.

Blessings of the great and good Queen Mab to you, friend.

A BLESSING OF THE WILD WITHIN

The Faery Gift of the Untamed Heart

Within you is a wild place, a place that is pure and untouched by conditioning and should and should-nots……and it is to this place the faery blessing of the wild within comes and rests and takes root within you this day.

This blessing is a calling back to your wild self, to the self that has been shaped and pummelled by the forces of family and culture and manner and jobs and timetables and by all of the things in the human world that can cage us..

And so the fae offer you this shining blessing, which returns you for a moment to your own wild within, so you can remember what it felt like to be natural, to be unthinking and uncensored, to be innocent and dancing, to move when called to, to have that primal, instinctual self take hold and fly with you.

When this blessing comes, let that wild within flow all the way through  you, and find places and spaces in your life to allow the wild within to have its moment – dance without fear of judgement; speak, words falling like waterfalls from your lips; sing and use the voice the great gift of nature has offered you; and never feel awkward or strange or like you do not fit in…..

Instead knowing you are a deep part of all that is around you, and that somehow, by your very presence, you ignite a little of that wild within inside every soul you meet.

May the blessings of that wild within offer you a return to the natural, most innate parts of you, and let them arise and dance and sing and be loving towards all.

Let the untamed heart of you warm all that is about you, and bring you back to that sense of deep belonging to the earth, and to the stars.

Blessings of the faery gift of the wild within to you, friend.  

A BLESSING OF A SAFE PLACE IN THE WORLD

The Faery gift of a Sanctuary, a space in which to feel completely supported and loved.

The Faeries know what it is like to find the safe places in the world – for theirs are under siege, and have been for such a long time.  The faeries know how to find the little home in the forest or the garden that is growing wild, the roots of old trees and the hollows beneath the sacred hills.

In these places, they have grown stronger and stayed safe, and they now transfer to you a part of this gift.  You will now find places and spaces within the world where you will feel free to be completely yourself, where you, too, can grow strong and bright again, and need have no fear.

Let there be a shelter and a sanctuary for you and your soul, where you can learn what it is you are meant to do next, and where there is no harsh word spoken, only guidance that can help ease us all into the next stage of our lives.

Let the safe spaces become our homes and our workplaces, our friendships and our schools.  

Let the world become a safer space, and let the natural world shelter you with her turnings and showings of the changes about you.

Make not a fortress of this space you find, but let it begin to grow in your heart, so that wherever you go, others feel safe with you, and the world changes, in small but bright and beautiful ways, all as a result of this blessing of the faeries.

Blessings of a sanctuary, a safe space to you, friend. 

Woosah gorgeous one, Blessings are amazing!  Sending you huge blessings and hugs as we enter this holiday season and please – if it resonates for you, come join the Omen Days Journey, if it doesn’t and you just want to see what 2025 is going to give you there are a few spots left for Opening The Doors for 2025.
