Oracle of the Dragonfae

Post Summer Solstice, Dragonfly Energy, Cancer New Moon and Full Solar Eclipse

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Miraculous, Magickal, Manifesting, Merry, Magnificent Monday!  It’s the last Monday in June, wow the month has whizzed by! Thanks so much to all of you who emailed me about your experiences with the B.O.S.S. (Book of Summer Solstice).  I am so glad you loved the guided visualisation and it was a delight to hear the rituals you chose to do and how some of you even did the Abundance spell! Whoot! Whoot! So tickled. Also, some of you have asked about the Solstice Reading Special and when it ends. It ends on Thursday, June 27th at midnight. So if you want to take advantage of it, now is the time.

Between the Full Moon and Solstice energy I felt very much like I had been floating in another realm, have you ever had that?  In fact, on Thursday I went hiking on glorious First Nations Land called SNIDCEL (place of the Blue Grouse). It was so incredibly beautiful and at one point I rounded a corner and there were at least 50 – 60 dragonflies dancing around me, it was pure magick! I then found a glorious mossy dried up stream bed and so I started to scramble up it into the unknown woods and as I got to the top there was a sensation that my vision had changed.  It was so strange, I could see everything, but not as I would normally see it – so I made my way back down to the beach and “poof” it changed back to normal. Okay, this is rather weird, am I losing my marbles?

Later on I saw way up above me what looked like a tiny trail leading off into the old, old trees, so I hauled myself up a steep bank by grabbing onto tree roots and as I got to the top and took a step on the trail my body immediately responded.  My heart rate shot up, I felt anxious and that there was something around me and then there was a whisper in the leaves of the trees saying “You aren’t meant to be here right now!”  Okay, now I am feeling a tad loopy!  So I scuttled back down the steep bank on my arse and the minute my feet hit the beach – womph!  Back to normal and surrounded by dragonflies. Can I explain it? Nope. Did I pay attention – heck yes!  In fact when I got home I researched dragonfly energy as I had just experienced it in spades! Did you know that dragonflies have been around for approximately 180 million years?!  I didn’t! Dragonflies remind us that we are light and can reflect the light in powerful ways if we choose to do so. It’s a Divine prompting to use the creative imagination as a force within your life.  When Dragonfly energy is in balance in one’s life you see things clearly, you feel more joyful and you are pure magick!  Wowzer, Wowzer, Wowzer. Glorious message. So next time you see a dragonfly, remember this invitation.

The next day was Solstice.  How was Solstice for you? For the first time in my life I celebrated the dawn of Solstice and the sunset of Solstice is was absolutely Divine.  I had planned to do both celebrations solo, but I decided to invite a group of women that I often encounter in the wee hours of the morning on the beach with their doggos.  Now, I love all animals, but I will say doggos are one of my most favourite, in fact my familiar normally has always been a doggo (oh yes and a crow). I love the energy of doggos, the pure joy they exhibit when they play, their loyalty and the fact that if something is off they know right away.  They don’t run around questioning it, they just follow their instincts. Now the doggos that these women have are super cool, and it tends to go hand in hand that if the doggo is cool then their humans are pretty cool as well, and these ladies most certainly are. So at 4am we all got up and headed to the ocean.  I had made crystal pouches of rose petals, citrine, quartz, sea salt and rosemary for each of them. The night before I had packed smudge, candles, pinecones to start a fire, salt to cast a circle and a plethora of little mini cheese scones that looked like suns. One woman brought gorgeous tea, another – oranges and so it went so we had a veritable feast for us.  I had also picked 3 calendula flowers for each woman; a yellow one to cast on the water to release something, an orange one for gratitude and another orange one for intention. It was such a glorious ritual and time I felt very blessed.

Then in the evening at about 9pm I packed up my backpack again, grabbed Danu and we headed back to the beach to watch the sunset and to dance, pray, offer more flowers and sing with the waves.  We stayed there with our candles burning until dark set in and I reflected that exactly a year ago I had come to this same beach with all my family (as we were here for a reunion) and we had celebrated Solstice together.  As the dark fully set in and feeling thoroughly satiated and peaceful we slowly wandered home.

Have to say it was an incredible day!

Okay, let’s talk about New Moon and Eclipse.  We have our first eclipse coming up on July 2nd’s New Moon.  This is a full solar eclipse in Cancer and the energy is related to leaving the comfort zone, managing your primary emotions and transforming the meaning of what is familiar and safe for you.  Now some of you may be saying – Jenn, what’s the big deal with eclipses. Ahhhh grasshopper let’s explore that. An eclipse  can generate an awareness of something larger, running the show and they poke holes in our ego/identity revealing things within us that we have been avoiding or are totally unaware of.  

Remember that the New Moon sets the energy for the month, right?  So the energy for this upcoming month is sensitive (as the New Moon will be in Cancer), all about what makes you feel at home, nourishes and supports you and the invitation to step up into more of what you want.  So this is where Intention comes into play, in a big way. Energy follows Intention, so set your intentions with clarity and let the energy follow them.  Please don’t set an intention and then the minute you are done start second guessing it, as guess where the energy is going to go? You guessed it, after the second aspect.  So my invitation to you is as we navigate this energy for the next couple of months (yes I did say that), and play with the Fire energy of this season – key thing is be kind and gentle with yourself and allow (note that word) the feelings to come up and just flow through you.  Some days you are going to be so inspired and filled with vim and vigour that you want to go conquer the world, other days you may feel like you want to hide out in a dark closet with a large bottle of wine and a straw!  Just let it flow and stay focused on your Intention, okay?

Okay, with that all being said – let’s crack on with the reading.  The cards that were dancing with glee to come and guide this week are the wonderful Oracle of the Dragonfae.  Now if these guides are new to you, let me introduce them (as that’s the polite thing to do).  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 lovely crystals that bounced out after having a week of moon bathing and sun bathing (so they are super cleansed and charged) are:-  Snowflake Obsidian – a stone of purity it provides balance for the body, mind and spirit.  Aragonite – balances energy fields, promotes renewal, strength and confidence.  Last but not least Fire Agate – known as the Spiritual Flame of absolute perfection.  

Okay, let’s drop into our bodies yes?  If you need a bit of extra support there is a glorious guided visualisation for you, to help you slow down to the ebb and flow of the waves should you feel inclined.  

https://www.jennyheston.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/beach-and-a-blessing.m4a

Otherwise just breathe, allow your breathe to slow and feel a sense of calm float over your body. Then when you are ready, invite in the energy of this fire season, the energy of the Solstice and when you can feel it in your body pick the card of cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a little peakie weakie?

QUEEN MAB

I am Mab, some call me Queen, and it is of your independence and personal sovereignty that I wish to speak to you at this time.  Each day you see and feel injustices in your world, and each time you remain mute, you allow the energy to spiral. Now is the time to make the difference, now is the time to take back the power the Mother, the Earth Goddess from whom we all were birthed, gave to you to safeguard and keep wisely – the precious gift of being on this planet.

Understand that you are energy and can use more than the old aggressive ways….use your energy and your mind, breathwork and what you call prayer, but what I call magick, to speak and allow your voice to reach others.  You are more powerful than you know. When you find yourself struggling within the cage of anger and fear, breathe love, and rest and revive yourself with knowledge of your own strength. Know the Dragonfae are with you, and will help to transmit your messages around this world you dwell in now.  For I know, and I tell you, that a reckoning will be made, and that you are a part of this magickal planet’s rescue team.

Be strong.  Be wise. Stay safe.  And change the world!

Mab is connected to our dreams, and she ensures that what we wish for, when it comes from love and magick, comes to us.  You are loved and protected by Mab, and you are beloved for your unique and even odd qualities, and that blending in is not the way.

Get back to the basics of enchantment and magick, reconnecting with the old ways and seeing them as eternal.  Understand the karmic history of your area, and apply the principles and lessons in the present moment. Know that your thoughts have energy, and can have an immense impact on what happens (think of the threefold law…).  Believe in your own abilities, and trust in the ancient ways of wisdom that run in your blood, as well as in the planet’s heartbeat.

DRYSTAN

Don’t be distracted – see behind the act!  

All my artifice hides only the truth, which at the moment you do not  wish to see.  I am always telling you the truth: it is simply that you do not wish to hear. I have always shown you who I truly am: you simply choose not to see.  The clues have been strewn about you….but you have decided not to notice their presence.

I can draw people into actions that reveal their shadows; and for that they condemn me.  But I have been their teacher, for they then know the whole of themselves, and thus have compassion for others.  Some have wanted me to be an angel, when I have never been of the heavens, and never claimed to be. I am illusions: but most of all, I am your illusion.

Look beyond, take off my mask, and decide to acknowledge the truth about the circumstances which you find yourself within.  And know that although you may say I have done you wrong, I have taught you to follow your guidance. Drystan is the Dragonfae bad boy, the cheat, the hustler and the fool who charms his way into your world, and then lets you down in spectacular fashion.  He’s a rogue. And the truth is: you always knew there was something dodgy about his situation, or this promise even though the glamour here is nearly irresistible.

If you are drawn in by someones charm and charisma, you may find yourself wishing and hoping they were indeed your hero (only in disguise!)  Use your judgement and place your own needs and desires first. Believe it when someone says they are not to be trusted, even when that is said not with words but with actions, or when there are too many contradictions.  Enjoy the show, but do not live the act. Begin to explore your truths, your story, and begin to look beneath the surface.

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 appear 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 grow 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. Whisper to her your dreams and ideas, plant your seeds, and watch them grow. Allow her to inspire you with care for your own budding projects, beings, loves and responsibilities.  

The emergence will come at the right time, because the bud will be forced to flower at some stage – do not allow yourself to wither in the bud.  Divine guidance needs practical application and work. Action teamed with inspiration will create a beautiful, bountiful paradise. Work hard at what it is  you love.

I so love the cards!  (Have I said that before?)  Perfect cards for this glorious energy that is swirling around us.  A quick heads up, there will not be a reading on Monday July 1st as it is Canada Day and I plan on playing, dancing and finding cake to eat! Nom! So delicious lovely, have a fabulous two weeks, don’t forget the reading special ends on Thursday June 27th. Also don’t forget to take some time on July 2nd to celebrate the New Moon and Full Solar Eclipse.  Breathe, smile, remember to keep cool physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Have a fantabulous time and celebrate how glorious you are!

See you in two weeks!

Beltane is almost here!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

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

So good to be back!  It feels like it has been forever since we last connected, but in fact it has only been two weeks!  How was your Easter? Did you get out and play, hunt for choccie eggs and do something fun? I hope so!  We had a lovely family (family that is here) dinner, however, due to my son very kindly insisting that he would by a ham, and then not getting it to me until 6pm.  Dinner wasn’t until 9pm! Ah well, we went and played on the beach, had skipping stone competitions, water fights and when we came home and walked in the door the smell was divine, it was quite lovely!

Now before we dive into Beltane and what it is and how to celebrate let’s talk about monthly energy.  As you are aware the energy of each month shifts and invites us to be a bit more aware about certain ways we are showing up in our lives and where we can get taken off track and blindly carry on down the road of humdrum, same old, same old.  I shared with some of you that every month I do a gorgeous monthly reading for myself. This reading gives me personally the energy of the month for me, then what to focus on each week. Quite a few of you responded that you would like that made available to you, so I am.  Starting now there is a glorious Monthly energy reading that is available to you here! Which feels very appropriate with Beltane (May day) approaching – like on Wednesday! I’m also offering a May mini message which you can read about here as well.

Okay let’s take a little dip into what the heck Beltane is and whether you should pay attention to it or not.  Beltane was thought to be one of the more important festivals of the Gaelic calendar.  Beltane is a Fire Festival. The word ‘Beltane’ originates from the Celtic God ‘Bel’, meaning ‘the bright one’ and the Gaelic word ‘teine’ meaning fire. Together they make ‘Bright Fire’, or ‘Goodly Fire’ and traditionally bonfires were lit to honour the Sun and encourage the support of Bel and the Sun’s light to nurture the emerging future harvest and protect the community.

Beltane 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. My brother came to visit this weekend from Alberta, and was blown away by all the flowers and the smells that are happening as we are a good 7 weeks ahead of them. Rhododendrons are in bloom, there are fields of Camus lilies, Sea breeze is bobbing their little pink heads, the Iris’s are up and there are carpets galore of bluebells.  Spring is here!  Which is no surprise as Beltane is the festival that heralds in the fertility and growth of Spring. This is the time of unity between the Goddess and the God and massive celebration.  For those of you who are on the email list there will be more information on Beltane tomorrow and a couple of super simple (we like simple) rituals to mark this fantabulous day.  The colours of Beltane are red, green, white or silver and the ritual trees of this celebration are Birch, Hawthorn (which I planted two of) and of course Rowan.  Speaking of Rowan, when my fourth child was born I had a ring made of Celtic knot work with Rowan leaves on it to celebrate his arrival.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading!  When I went and asked which cards wanted to come out. The cards that wiggled and jiggled to come and guide this week are the glorious Oracle of the Dragonfae.  Now if these delicious guides are new to you, please let me introduce them:-  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 most positively perfect guides as we enter this magickal time of Beltane and an energy shift for May, plus the New Moon.

The crystals and flowers that were adamant it was their time to shine and share are:- Chrysocolla – revitalises and balances the base, navel and solar plexus chakras. Amethyst – aid healing and intense spiritual growth.  Last but not least,  Angelite – transmutes pain and disorder into wholeness and healing, opening the way for spiritual inspiration.  The lovely rhododendron flower, bluebells and pansy were most adamant to participate.  

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

Did you remember to pick?

 

 

Let’s go have a look shall we?

 

 

GRANDMOTHER MAGICKS

At this time of life change, you are drawing to you other beings and people, including divinities, who bring you solace, comfort and their unconditional love.  You are surrounded by this comfort even in the beings of this Earth known as pets, but who are truly your guardians nd beloved companions…these pets are those who comfort you with their love and warmth, and their desire for your well-being, your company and your happiness, come what may.  You may draw to you new friends at this time, or just be gifted with the kindness of strangers.

There are many wonderful beings in this world, some of whom are being sent directly to you to bring you comfort, to hold you, and to rock you safely to sleep each night.  You are a being who is valuable, and who is loved beyond measure. Allow us to come close to you, and let us in. Bre prepared for kindnesses, small gifts and valuable windfalls when I make an appearance.  Also, know that the old way of viewing this stage of life has fallen away….there is no need to take the lie up again. Let it be, and come forth into this new stage as beautiful as we know you are.

I also wish you to know that the time for change is coming: that you are passing from childhood of a kind, to a true deep maturity…this is a fine thing, and we will celebrate this together, you and I, together with the friends who want so very much to meet you!

AINE AND THE GUARDIAN

Here I stand, offering to you the protection and safety of my guardian being, wanting you to know how very protected you truly are.  Never need you fear again those who have done you harm. This is over, and never again will disrespect and tyranny blight your path and light.  Know that from this moment on, I stand with you, as does this magnificent Moondragonfae guardian, and together we say you may live as you wish, you may love as you wish, you may worship as you wish.  No longer will others who feel they know best have their way with you, in spirit, in your heart, in your body, in your eternal soul. You are a radiant being of moonlit power, and the Goddess, our Mother, is overjoyed at your brilliance, your wit, your beauty, your freedom.  I repeat. You are safe. You are protected. You are divine. All else is a lie.

Allow yourself to take flight, and explore the night and the freedoms it holds.  The Moon cycles have much to reveal to you now, and as she wanes and waxes, and shines fully, you may stand beneath her and feel her rays shining through your every cell, filling you with natural magick that sustains your freedom, your true soul self, and brings you a warrior strength that by no means decreases your brilliances as a woman, or your femininity.  Be receptive, and Aine will guide you to her magickal places, and this galactic Dragonfae being will help you see beyond our own star, the Sun, into the realms beyond. Your freedom and your self is as boundless as the night sky.

NIMUE

Between my two hands lies the power of all that is; the connections between the Earth and the stars, the realms through which you can move to bring about your deepest desires and dreams.  But do you dare to dream it? Are you courageous enough to declare your desire? I can create, but I will not be brought froth when you do not have the fortitude to commit to your change. Make a commitment to thy own self now – she, who you truly are, is worth this trust, this pledge, this courage you must have to birth your own changing self.  For I am gentle, but I too have no more time to spend if you wish to waste the jewels life has given you. I will turn away, because it may not yet be your time. Only you can say it is not so, and walk forth into your new self, with me as guide and light, with transformation as your nature, with your incarnation without material death as your truth.  

Do this with me:  Bless theyself. Love thyself.  Know that you are beyond your own imaginings.  Act this day, this hour, this minute, and change will flow.  Do not hesitate. Be transformed now!

It is time for you to free yourself from the confines of others’ expectations and investigate other less conventional ways of making a living.  You may be drawn to a particular crystal at this time, and may enjoy simply entering into more regular communion with the element of earth and its minerals.  Wear jewelry that has been cleansed by you, and energised by you, and understand its significance and power for you. Make each piece you choose to wear a totem symbolising your own self, adorning and expressing who you truly are.  Above all, the message of Nimue is to free yourself. Stop expecting others to unshackle the chains and force you to walk free. You, and only you, can remove that which is holding you back.

What a delicious reading!  Talk about the perfect energies to go along with Beltane and the fiery, passion!  Okay delicious lovely, remember to check out the monthly reading and the May mini message.  If you want to receive information about Beltane and some easy rituals make sure you are on the email list.  Wishing you a stupendous, fertile, abundant week filled with flowers, song, and laughter. Huge hugs and squeezes!  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.  

How Tight is Your Comfort Zone? Imbolc is Coming! And New Moon is Rising.

Jenny Heston · 1:02 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Marvelous, Magickal, Magnanimous, Majestic, Major League, Masterly, Matchless, Memorable, Manifesting Monday!!!  Why do I have all these M’s? Well to be honest I always thought that poor Monday got a bad rap. How often have you heard people say “Urgghh it’s Monday?” What a weight to put on one little word and one little day, thus last year I decided we needed to reframe it and make it Magickally Marvelous and the Most Magnificent time for Manifesting!

Let’s talk about comfort zone first and foremost shall we?  How is your comfort zone feeling? I don’t know about you but for me the comfort zone can feel ohhhhh so deliciously safe and oh so cosy!  As a massive introvert (and I don’t like labels) I am more comfy curled up on the sofa with a book, writing, or playing with a doggo than going out with a massive amount of people I don’t know.  Don’t get me wrong if they are my delicious friends that I have known for years and I trust, I am happy to go out-ish and hang out. The issue is I moved. So for nearly 4 months I have had to BE and deal with shit that I hadn’t even thought would come up from other people and then on top it all to put myself out there and start making friends?  That felt really tricky and the sofa looked far more appealing. Why is it when your 5 it is so easy to make a friend at the playground and you don’t even need to know their full name, yet as an adult it’s far trickier which is interesting as we have “better” communication skills!

Anyhow, with this glorious year being a 3 year – thus one of Joy, Creativity and Renewal I committed to stretching and stretching my comfort zone. Why? Because it felt tight, mundane and to be honest – a tad limiting. So I committed to trying new things, exploring new places and really being present.  Good right? Then I got sick. (So snuggling in bed with ginger root tea and coming up with all sorts of excuses, reasons or just bullshit was quite delightful).  However, once I felt hale and hearty physically it was time to push the boundaries a tad. Okay, so what do I want to do (and for some of us that can be tricky as we can default to the “what do I think I should do”.)  Well, I have always wanted to take a drumming workshop, I have always wanted to explore if I can sing (as old tapes from my maternal advised me that was ridiculous and I had happily bought into that.) I would sing at home, I chant every morning, but to actually sing and have my voice heard by others would give me the screaming hebegebees!  

Guess what?  I started an African drumming course last week, I went Axe tossing (who knew it could be so fun) on the weekend and I also went to a vocal workshop called “Tune into Yourself and Find Your Voice”.  OMG! Amazing, amazing, amazing – all three. Yet it was fascinating to watch my ego “keeper” as I call her chirp up right before every event. “What are you doing?  Don’t you feel tired?  Why are we doing this, it’s dumb!  You won’t know anyone! You can’t drum, throw an axe, sing etc.  See the sofa? It’s raining. Where’s a good book?”  All that flooded up to the forefront and to be honest last Tuesday (first drumming class) I nearly bailed, but note the word nearly.  Last Tuesday I walked through the pouring rain for 3 km to show up dripping and soppy for an African drumming class and I had so much fun playing with my drum and really connecting with the other 30 people that were there and creating something that sounded really good!

On Friday I went and tossed axes galore (and apparently I’m a natural).  On Sunday I went to a vocal workshop where I found my voice, my voice to say what I needed to, to sing, to really belt my thoughts out, to meld my voice with others, to really tap all the way down to my root and again I had soooo much fun!  (Yet my delicious ego “keeper” was advising me to stay home, stay safe, stay small and have a nice cuppa!)

Now why am I sharing this with you?  Let me remind you, this a 3 year – Creativity, Joy, Renewal.  So let me ask – what have you wanted to at least try that you have been afraid of?  What would nudge you gently out of your comfort zone into something really cool? What would help you find your voice and your essence (and I know both of those are strong in you, or you wouldn’t be reading this).  

On top of stretching the comfort zone we have Imbolc coming up this Friday, on February 1st and what does this mean for you?  Imbolc is a Celtic festival celebrating the emerging life in the world around us.  It’s a time to really plant those delicious seeds, to harness the energy of the 3 year and to really, really commit to growing, expanding and playing.  Imbolc means “in the belly of the Mother” because that is where seeds are beginning to stir with Spring.  It is the festival of the Maiden, from this day to March 21st, it is her season to prepare for growth and renewal.  So what a perfect time to tap this glorious energy and overlay it over the amazing Eclipse energy we have (that is burbling for at least the next 5 – 6 months). 

Then, on top of all that we have a delicious New Moon coming next Monday on February 4th, again a delicious time to plant those seeds of intent, the ones that help you stretch the comfort zone, explore your creativity and really tap into Joy.  

If you are on the email list, on Thursday I will be sending out a more detailed explanation of Imbolc, Brigid (the Goddess) and some easy rituals.  But for now – can you feel the fertility that is approaching? It’s pulsing everywhere, flowers are starting to push up, leaves are gently welling up into buds, seeds will need to be planted.  Thus, imagine yourself like a glorious garden – what do you need to push the dross aside and stretch? To really bloom, expand and grow.

Okay, enough chuntering away (can tend to do that as there is so much I want to share with you).  When I went to the cards to ask who would like to be present this week “The Oracle of the Dragonfae” jumped up and down.  Now, if you are new to these gorgeous guides, let me give it to you in an acorn shell – “Feel their love.  Know your power….the Dragonfae are our flesh and soul kin, our friends, our guardians and our allies.  When we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life.”

Interestingly enough, when I asked which crystals wanted to come support, the rocks and the shells were adamant.  Which actually if you think about it makes sense. We live on the biggest crystal there is and so the rocks and shells are the bones of what we walk on.  They have been here thousands of years and hold the energy and the desires of all who have touched them and the mysteries.  Oh yes, and Rosemary (which is a glorious protection herb) and delicious flowers insisted on participating.  If you are at all worried they were discarded afterwards, let me assure you Rosemary went in a glorious soup and the flowers are in an egg cup.  

I invite you to take a moment, the longer the better, but even a minute of gifting  yourself stillness and breathe where the sides of your rib cage push out is all good.  Just breathe, and in your minds eye I invite you to see those wiggly, jiggly bits outside of your comfort zone that soooo want you to come play with them, but of course – you’ve been busy and it feels rather scary.  Breathe into what they are, give them life, acknowledge them and with them burbling and swooping in your minds eye ask yourself what’s stopping you. What fear, limiting belief or anything is limiting you playing with the wiggly, jiggly bits outside of your comfort zone.  Yes? Then when you’re ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

Shall we pick?

Fancy a look?

DRAGONFAE OF REBIRTH

We are the ones who have seen you in those moments you humans describe as dark – the ones you so often wish to run and hide from, the ones you fear because you misunderstand their purpose, the ones you shun.  Your loathing of your shadow has sometimes driven you to seek and ending. But a literal ending is not necessary. In every culture on this planet, old and new, there has been a ritual that lets you die to your old self, one in which the wise man or woman is guided through a journey to their own underworld.  We too know of this underworld, as we dwell there from time to time, and here we are now, in this underworld, waiting for you to descend in order to be reborn.

Fear not your “dark” moments.  For in the dark are the shadows, easeful rest and the deep knowledge of the heart and the soul.  In this place the seeds you need to plant can flourish and what you feel are dark and “bad” thoughts are in fact manifestations of the desire to die to the self that no longer feels its true self to be captured in its outside form.  

You are remaking your own soulself, and in this magick and ritual endarkenment lie the seeds of your reawakening and your own rebirth.  We are with you, circling you and clearing and cleansing your energy. There is no beginning and no end, just the cycle of birth, death and rebirth.  Now, it feels like death…but it is a death to the old self…not a literal death. Do not fear. You are about to be reborn. Take heart and know that soon you will feel whole again.  

THE MORRIGHAN

I see now that events are moving extremely fast; this is a time of rapid change and creation, so rapid that you may wish to slow down, just a little.  However I say to you clearly that the time to act is now; and that procrastination and hesitation are your enemies at this time. I can lead you forward through this time, and help you pick your way through the minefield before you.  This is a time of testing and darkness, but through this you will grow strong. Be aware! If you have resisted your abilities, or felt blocked in terms of following your life path, these changes will take place very rapidly because they have been waiting for a signal to be able to come in, and they are working hard with you so you do not have to endure a long, drawn-out process of change.  Truly, you are ready. Take flight with me, and know that taking your own path seriously and acting now with deep integrity, is the way for justice to reach you.

Do not give in to panic and do not run.  Now is the time. If not now, when?

You have already tortured yourself in a thousand ways with your thoughts.  You cannot avoid change; each day your cells renew, and all you have to do is breathe in and out for this process to take place.  You are confusing stasis with safety – there is nothing to fear, there is everything to gain. A turning point in your life demands action on your behalf, and backing down or avoidance is not the answer.  Draw strong boundaries and claim your space. Face trouble rather than turning away. Confront injustice and change the rules by which you have felt bound. Learn to work with your strength and your own ability to create deep change.  Lose fear of your own power. Let your courage feel inspired and know that destiny has given you an opportunity to be the courageous being of action that you truly are.

CHENGUANG

I am Dragonfae, thus I am at once a being of copious laughter, and of earnest and deep study.  Being Dragonfae, I know when to put aside my serious work and my mission, and play, laugh and love.  I know the importance of devoting myself to the playtime that balances, soothes and heals my heart, and lifts the heaviness that sometimes accompanies my days.  Can you do this? Or are you too caught up in being taken seriously? There is a perfect balance between serious, cosmic matters and playful light-heartedness to be found.  Both Earth and star are necessary for all of us. We are indeed galactic beings ourselves. But most of all, your hope and optimism is paramount right now. Take heart, for delight and joy is yours.  

You are about to experience a true reversal in your inner self:  you will now think magickally and attain mastery of magickal consciousness.  What you think, what you are manifests about you at all times: what you are now is the delicious light-hearted magickal being you were born to be.  You are like a beautiful shining star; its light magikally transforming everything it touches. Rays of light beam out from you and your body is awash with healing green energy and fresh new life.  You are dancing in the air, lifted up on the strength of your own experience and friendships, and you would do well to wear the divine colour violet, while the gentle zephyr helps your move in the direction of your dreams.

When we allow ourselves to shine we become who we were always meant to be; and by example we encourage others to become who they truly are. Drop the heavy nature of punishment, guilt and beliefs that no longer serve you. You are a powerful role model for others; you have experienced the joy of setting your sights high and the healing power of self-belief.  You still have many experiences ahead of you on your journey, but this energy of the star is now your companion and your divine inspiration.

Okay, I will say I use this deck a plethora of times – yet the only time The Morrighan or Chenguang come to play is in this public arena.  Thus, someone here is meant to hear the message again (are you listening)? I would also like to say thank you for your glorious emails and shares – I really appreciate and treasure them.  Wishing you wiggle room and expansion with your comfort zone and a glorious Imbolc. Remember to plant the seeds and nurture them. Huge hugs and squeezes and new green shoots!

December is here and the energy has shifted! New Moon in Sagittarius and let’s talk about Cocooning.

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Marvelous, Mellow, Momentous, Meteoric, Mirthful first Monday of December delicious lovely!  That’s right we are in a new month, in fact the last month of the year and holy hannah there’s lots waiting to welcome us.  We have an energy shift, a new moon and we are soon to be at the shortest day of the year and we are all most certainly barreling towards the end of the year and whether you buy into it or not the expectations and events increase tenfold.  Phew! I don’t know about you but hearing all that makes me want to take a nap!! (Which is normal as this is the season where our bodies, mind and energy turn inwards – more restorative, cocooning energy.)

Okay what shall we start with?  Let’s begin with the shamanic energy of the month.  So you remember that October was “Taking Inventory”, November was then “Truth” and guess what?  December is “CHAOS”!  (I’m not surprised by that to be honest, for a lot of people 2018 has been an intense, challenging and unsettling year.) Now don’t go running to the closet to hide, let’s explore and unpack it a bit shall we?  

As the incredible Lena Stevens shares:- “This is a month of transition and we chose CHAOS as the theme because that is what happens when you have many moving parts that are disconnected and have not yet found their place to land.  Chaos is the astral plane, or spirit world revealed, without form, where anything is possible if you are willing to let go of resistance and use your creativity wisely to arrange those moving parts into something you want.  

Chaos often brings with it resistance, fear of losing control, confusion, physical discomfort, anxiety and an instinctive reaction to pull back and hunker down into old patterns that are familiar. Chaos also brings with it an excitement and anticipation of something new, a change, progress and creativity. Obviously, we want to stay out of resistance and focus more on the “anticipation of something new” part. When faced with chaos, it is important not to get lost in drama and lack of focus. Use discipline to keep unnecessary chaos out (such as chaos and drama belonging to someone else) and be careful not to invite unnecessary chaos in (such as adding something to your plate that you know is going to increase your level of stress, confusion and overwhelm). It is a good discipline to learn to say no to that which is an energy leak. It is also helpful to stay focused on the priorities that are not overwhelming. Keeping good boundaries is a must.”  

Isn’t that delicious energy to work with as we head into the hurly burly of the holiday season with the school concerts, cookie swaps, relatives that you haven’t seen in forever coming to stay?  All the more reason to pay attention to it and don’t say yes to things that will tip you off the edge due to increased stress!

Now let’s look at the New Moon that happens this week on December 7th.  This lovely New Moon is the last one of this year and is in Sagittarius inviting us to release the bullshit, the drama, the heavy little chunks.  Sagittarius energy is always helping us to look on the bright side of things and to focus on what we feel grateful for, and seeing the bigger picture from a more expansive point of view.  

Saying that, we can sometimes get so bogged down in our own thoughts and feelings, and in the drama of it all, that we can very quickly start constructing our own falsehoods of reality.  When we find ourselves so bogged down in this type of thinking, we have to step back, we have to get some space between our thoughts, and we have to try to look at things from the outside.

Where have you been holding someone in debt to you for something they did?  Where have you been holding yourself in debt due to a judgement about yourself or a little chunk of lurking shame?  This is the time to really let it all go, pull the big girl panties on and own your piece and make amends for it and let the other bits of flotsam and jetsam flow away and be released.  (Trust me, you will feel shed tons lighter and what a glorious way to feel when you head into Equinox and New Years!)

We have now explored the energy of the month, the New Moon and now let’s take a brief moment and explore the energy of the season.  The energy right now is one of a downward spiral, an inward reflective, nurturing spiral. Think of dark skies early in the afternoon, turning on a warm lamp, cuddling with a bowl of glorious home made soup and time to reflect, nurture and rejuvenate.   To me that’s the energy of this season as we head towards the shortest day of the year (Winter Solstice December 21st). I don’t know about you, but here we are at 8 hours and 34 minutes between sunrise and sunset, which is not a lot to say the least! How’s your body responding?  I know for me by about 6pm I am already flexing my chill out, hibernation muscle and wanting to ingest warm comfort food, curl up in the corner of the sofa and knit a great big woolly jumper, light a fire, have glorious rich music wafting through the house, light candles and to just be with myself and not go back out for a while.  Which is so unlike the energy my body feels in summer time, where I want lighter foods, the activities I do are far more energetic and I am happy to dance until dawn!

An example for myself from this past weekend.  Saturday was a glorious sunny day (albeit brief and chilly), I’m now living somewhere where there is no snow and not many coniferous trees.  So I decided to decorate the massive cherry tree outside, who had dropped all her leaves with large Xmas balls (or globes) in gold and green.  So hours spent scrambling through the branches, hanging them on ribbons and bedecking the cherry tree were spent. The sun went down and I came in, kicked off my shoes, turned on the lamps, pulled on my cosy slippers and curled up on the sofa.  Hang on, it’s only 4:55! Apparently here they do this amazing lit up truck parade of huge trucks that wend and wind their way through town gathering supplies for the food banks. There are various neighbourhoods as well where all the Xmas lights get turned on, music, roasted chestnuts, mulled cider and celebration.  All of these things I wanted to go see as I had never been here for this time. Yet as it got darker and colder and the time for the events drew nearer it took a huge amount of energy to don the big woolly sweater, grab my bag and head out.  I just wanted to be cosy, warm and quiet. However, have to say all the events were spectacular and I was home by 9pm!  (Whether we acknowledge it or not our bodies really do know what they need and it’s when we push them repeatedly to do something different we create dissonance).  So my question for you delicious lovely is – with the hurly burly of the holiday season starting to ramp up, what little things can you do to honour what your body is attuned to do?

So there we have it, a ton of information to assimilate and work with, and we are only in the first week of December!  It’s all good though, if I could nutshell it – own your stuff, make amends when needed, don’t take one too much and let your body and energy restore and rejuvenate with moments of hibernation and cosy food.

Now after all that, let’s crack on with the reading.  When I asked the cards who wanted to come and guide this week it was the delicious Oracle of the Dragonfae.  This is a glorious, fun, and inviting deck that asks you to put aside your disbelief in magik.  The crystals were super clear as to who wanted to come and be present as was the smudge and the turkey feather.  

Thus, I invite you to take a moment for you, just you and allow yourself to come back to yourself, allowing yourself to move with the energy of the season and just curl inwards a tad.  Breathe. There is also a little guided visualisation to help you tap into that moment of Peace and Serenity, should you so desire.

Did you remember to pick?

Who wants to guide you this week?

THE LADY ALFREDA

Know you this: that whatsoever you send out, you attract back to the power of three.  Intent has energy, as do thoughts, feelings and emotions, and once released, this vibrational thought field radiates out and attracts back to you that which was sent out.  This is the Law of the Threefold return, an ancient Law that the wise ones have know of for many a year, though many of the humans have refused to listen to its wisdom.

So, if you cry out an injustice, and if you are in pain, you must clear the reasons these manifestations of the Law were brought to you, were drawn to you, by you.  As you think, so you will live. As you do, others will do unto you. This is the magickal law.

Do not be afraid of this truth:  see it as a source of freedom. There is no blame in this karmic truth, for all that you send out will return.  There is no other place for it to go. You own underworld initiation is ending soon, and the dark will soon come to be but a place full of rest, release, wisdom and deep, ancient knowledge.  The Law is the Law. And the Lady’s Law is love unto all. Follow this, and the Threefold Return will work its magicks.

Do you not know the truth?  Your own underworld is not hell, but your dark time in the cauldron of your experience, your growth, your understanding, your knowledge.  Now you have the knowledge of the Law ill you work with it, knowing it to be truth?

QUEEN MAB

I am Mab, some call me Queen, and it is of your independence and personal sovereignty that I wish to speak to you at this time.  Each day you see and feel injustices in your world, and each time you remain mute, you allow the energy to spiral. Now is the time to make the difference, now is the time to take back the power the Mother, the Earth Goddess from whom we all were birthed, gave to you to safeguard and keep wisely – the precious gift of being on this planet.

Understand that you are energy and can use more than the old aggressive ways….use your energy and your mind, breathwork and what you call prayer, but what I call magick, to speak and allow your voice to reach others.  You are more powerful than you know. When you find yourself struggling within the cage of anger and fear, breathe love, and rest and revive yourself with knowledge of your own strength. Know the Dragonfae are with you, and will help to transmit your messages around this world you dwell in now.  For I know, and I tell you, that a reckoning will be made, and that you are a part of this magickal planet’s rescue team.

Be strong.  Be wise. Stay safe.  And change the world!

Mab is connected to our dreams, and she ensures that what we wish for, when it comes from love and magick, comes to us.  You are loved and protected by Mab, and you are beloved for your unique and even odd qualities, and that blending in is not the way.

FERNIA

I wish to be honest with you, so you understand what it is you think and feel you are wishing for.

Do you understand that in order for you to be in connection with all you feel you desire that there will be what many consider to be sacrifices along the way?  

Do you understand that what we can offer you is shelter, yes, soft and sweet, tender and shaded beneath the heat of the sun, a place to rest and sleep and dream?  But do you also know that others will say you dwell in a fantasy land and that what you dream of cannot be? Consider the truth of what it is you wish for and know that whatever you commit to, expectations play no part in this promise I make to you… because I do pledge to shelter you and introduce you to magicks, to show you the ways of the Dragonfae folk and to help tend the little ones with me.  

But I also promise you this:  that your supposed nirvana will be muddy and dirty and difficult at times.  There is no way for this to be what you fantasize about. You will need to care for yourself and to allow others to be who they are.  For this is the path of clarity: knowing who you are and the part you play in all things. Leave your expectations behind and be prepared to discover more magick than you ever thought possible.  Do not seek to possess anything…and know that you are free to choose, in every moment, if you will go on.

Do you understand that if you wish to be of this realm, and yourself entirely, that you will give up some old ways of thinking?  Otherwise you may find yourself hurt by the conflict such incompatible thoughts and feelings will bring.

Wow, wow, wow!  Very strong messages and all very appropriate at this time.  Huge level of restore, rejuvenate, own your piece and step up.  Lol, I sooooo love the cards! So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a week of moments to be able to turn inwards, to relax and let the “duties” drop.  A time of feeling in balance, grateful and enjoying self created chunks of peace, serenity and nourishment. Here’s to bowls of warm soup, mugs of hot tea, roaring fires and ease.  Huge hugs and squeezes. See you next week! Let me know how your New Moon wishes go!

Seriously? Seriously, the Trump administration i Seriously? 

Seriously, the Trump administration is attacking Sesame Street?

 Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., who organized the hearing — which she called “Anti-American Airwaves” — opened her remarks by deriding PBS and NPR as “radical left-wing echo chambers” that published skewed news reports and indoctrinated children with LGBTQ+ programming.

Wow. One Muppet attacking real muppets. Sad.

Happy first Monday of May! The May energy has shi Happy first Monday of May!

The May energy has shifted and is inviting us to Deepen. 

To meet ourselves where we are with a Tend and Befriend attitude. 

To really root into our ease, grace, strength and authenticity- but that means letting go of the drama. 

Are you willing?

Happy Beltane my loves. Beltane is one of the fo Happy Beltane my loves. 

Beltane is one of the four great fire festivals and was traditionally a celebration of life, the first signs of summer, the fertility of the land and people, and the promise of the light and growth to come.

Beltane is translated as bright fire, and communities would build fires to symbolise the growing power of the sun and to purify, cleanse and renew after the dark months of winter.

This is a time of fertility and growth,love and joy, sexuality and sensuality, the coming together of the masculine and feminine creative energies in all of us and, most of all, abundance and happiness.

Flowers are everywhere, the earth is lush and green, and there
is a sense that Nature is virile, fertile and celebrating being alive.

We too will feel this same alive, fertile energy within us, calling us to allow ourselves and our dreams to grow into all that they can become.

BELTANE / BEALTAINE / MAY DAY May 1st 2025 🌸 B BELTANE / BEALTAINE / MAY DAY
May 1st 2025 🌸

Beltane is the Celtic festival of fire and fertility, celebrated this year on May 1st. It marks the height of spring and the threshold of summer—a time when the Earth is fully alive, vibrant, and brimming with passion. The days grow longer, the sun stronger, and the world hums with the fierce joy of growth and creation.

Beltane honours the union of Earth and Sky, the sacred marriage that brings forth abundance and life. The goddess and god dance together through the fields and forests, weaving blossoms into the land and awakening the fires within all living things. Bonfires blaze in their honour, and ribbons fly from the maypole as a prayer for blessing, vitality, and fertile dreams.

The fires are lit. The Earth is ablaze with life. 🥰🌸

It’s the last Monday of April! How are you fee It’s the last Monday of April! 

How are you feeling?  There has been a lot energetically and globally to hold. 

We are in Taurus season, the bull, which invites a slow down and a dropping into that feeling of worthiness. 

Can you do that?  Slow down and really embrace yourself where you are right now?

On Thursday we celebrate Beltane!

A glorious fire festival that dances in you, around you and with you to help you remember the pleasures of life. 

There’s a glorious Beltane Booklet for you, 5 questions to ask yourself at Beltane.  All sorts or magick, as the veil is thin and the Fae want to play and chat.

There’s a moment—a quiet, powerful shift—whe There’s a moment—a quiet, powerful shift—when a woman stops waiting for validation and starts living for herself. It’s not loud. It’s not dramatic. But it’s life-changing. 

She no longer explains her choices, dims her light, or tiptoes around expectations. She walks in her truth, fully and unapologetically. That moment? 

It’s freedom. It’s the deep knowing that she is enough, her dreams are valid, and her life is hers to shape. 

No more asking for permission. No more shrinking to fit spaces never meant for her. Just existing in her power, her purpose, and her joy. And when you see a woman living like that—really living—it’s the most beautiful thing in the world. Sis, if you’re not there yet, know this: it’s coming. And when it does, you’ll never look back. ✨🔥

🔥 LIBRA FULL MOON (APRIL 12): RADICAL LOVE, RAD 🔥 LIBRA FULL MOON (APRIL 12): RADICAL LOVE, RADICAL TRUTH

Astrologically speaking… the wounds are loud. The dreams? Louder. And the class war? It just got spiritual.

This Full Moon in Libra isn’t just about balance—it’s about calling back your power from every place you gave it up in the name of keeping the peace. It’s a cosmic reckoning. A line in the sand.

⚖️ Libra wants justice, harmony, and integrity in relationships.
🔥 But with the Sun conjunct Chiron in Aries? We’re being asked to tell the truth—even when it burns.
💧 And with Venus stationing direct in Pisces? Love is being rebirthed as a liberating force, not a fantasy.

This lunation asks:

✨ Where are you masking peace over truth?
✨ What are you done apologizing for?
✨ How do you make your love sacred—not performative?

Let this Full Moon recalibrate you. Organize your values. Reclaim your voice. And remember: sometimes the most radical thing you can do… is love honestly.
