Release and Rest

Belonging in the Season of the Otherworld

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Gorgeous Soul,

We’ve stepped across a threshold, love.
We’re officially in the season of the Otherworld. 🍂

The winds of autumn are carrying whispers from the unseen realm, and this month’s reading comes as a balm for the nervous system with one clear, steady message:

You belong.

No matter what chaos is blowing in from the outer world right now, the message for October is simple and profound—we can create stone circles of stability within ourselves.

Anchors in times of change.

Places where we remember: we are heard, we are held, we are not alone.

Why Autumn Feels Different

The ancient Celts knew this. They felt autumn as the richest time of year to connect with the unseen. The veil thins, the harvest comes in, and the visible world above ground begins to retreat back into the earth. That’s when the Otherworld rises closer—full of healing, creativity, and possibility.

And haven’t you felt it? That subtle shift? The way dreams turn wilder, intuitions grow sharper, and sometimes your ancestors seem to slip into the room beside you?

Autumn holds both withering and abundance. It asks us to gather in what has ripened and to let go of what no longer serves. It carries loss and it carries possibility.

It is an initiation into your own mythical unfolding.

Creating Your Stone Circle

When I think of this season, I think of stone circles—ritual places built at thresholds, aligned with the solstices, equinoxes, and stars. They were meant to hold people steady through great change.

This month’s invitation is to create your own “stone circle.”
✨ Maybe it’s a quiet corner in your home that you return to each week.
✨ Maybe it’s time set aside for meditation, journaling, or walking in nature.
✨ Maybe it’s a candle lit every evening, marking your center.

Whatever it looks like for you, let it be your anchor. A place where you can step back into your inner world, reconnect with your own center, and remember your belonging.

Because here’s the truth: if you are not at the center of your own world, your world has no center. Autumn is reminding you now—it’s safe to take that place. It’s necessary.

The Thinning of the Veil

October always carries huge gifts, messages and visions for me.

Ancestors show up in my dreams, insights arrive unannounced, new pathways open.

And I want you to be open to that too.

Yes, the outer world may feel chaotic this month.

But inside, through your anchor points, you can connect to something steady and luminous. Think of it as touching into rainbows underground while the storm rages above.

This is the balance of autumn—the seen world fading, the unseen rising.

And in that balance, your soul expands.

The Aries Super Full Moon – October 7

This Full Moon is like an exhale after the intensity of the eclipses. It’s asking: What are you ready to let go of? What has served its time?

Because it’s the first Full Moon since Equinox, it also brings to fruition intentions seeded back in March. Something you began earlier this year may now come to harvest—or return for another layer of learning.

And, by just a day, this moon is the Harvest Moon. It invites you to gather what this year has given you—not only food or things, but the wisdom, the lessons, the growth.

Even as baskets fill, the withering begins. And that’s the deeper teaching: endings are not failures, they are the natural turn toward rest.

Walking with the Ancestors

As we move toward Samhain, ancestry is alive in the air. The same moonlight that shines on your face once touched those who walked before you.

Their presence is woven into this season, reminding us that we belong to something larger, older, and enduring.

So this October, build your stone circle. Touch into your center. Let yourself belong—to yourself, to your ancestors, to this living, breathing world.

Because you are not walking this season alone.
You are heard.
You are held.
✨ You belong.

So with all that being shared and said. Take a breath, see a glorious stone circle that welcomes you and then pick the card or cards that whisper.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

HOWL WITH FIERCENESS

Wolves, like women, have been regulated to the dangerous side of wildlife.

Both species are greatly misunderstood and often accused of menace.

Yet women, like wolves, possess a propensity for courage in the face of danger, strength in the quest for well-being, and loyalty to mate and tribe.

When we are no longer willing to shame ourselves for our natural fierceness, or condemn ourselves (or others) for the need to love and hunt and roam free, Wild Woman rises.

What do you need to be fierce about?

Are you willing to let it out?

If you are choking down your words to “fit in” and call it a life, you are being invited to tap into your wolf energy.

GATHER YOUR TRIBE

They say your vibe attracts your tribe, and nothing brings them to you more swiftly than when you’re willing to be clear about who you are and what you want and why you want it.

No more people pleasing to make others happy.

If you have to contort and compromise, they’re not your people.

When we allow and attract versus contort and demand, we gather the lost pieces of ourselves together and Wild Woman rises.

Where is the box feeling a tad tight?

Where are you not using your authentic, delicious soul voice?

CHAMPION PEACE

Your mind is a temple where peace yearns to be worshipped.

It’s easy to respond to war with war, especially within ourselves.

One judgemental thought leads to another and soon your mind is a battle zone.

But peace and war cannot rule simultaneously.  

You get to choose who will rule the mind’s temple.

Right now you’re being invited to become an advocate of peace.

When we choose love over fear and peace over war, Wild Woman rises.

Do you fill your mind with the news, hate the divisiveness and allow it to take hold?

Where do you let yourself in your mind and body walk in love and peace?

Oh my golly goodness!  You seriously can’t make this shit up!  What perfect guides for this time!!!  So my gorgeous one, I wish for you a week where you invite in the stone circle, create your anchor points and allow yourself to breathe in your ancestors, whether of blood or choice – and start to listen to their guidance.

Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!

Apparently, I’ve harvested a whole bushel of laven Apparently, I’ve harvested a whole bushel of lavender—and the bees would like to speak to management. 🐝😤

After some tense garden negotiations, I assured them I wasn’t taking it all. Now let the lavender-induced faery shenanigans begin: wands, baskets, bath bags, sachets, oils, salts, sugars, jelly and all manner of fragrant magick! 💜🌿

The bees still have plenty.

They also appear to have unionized.

🌙✨ Plot twist... The Cancer New Moon isn’t asking 🌙✨ Plot twist...

The Cancer New Moon isn’t asking you to become a shinier, better, more productive version of yourself.

She’s asking you to remember who you were before you became so ridiculously good at accommodating everyone else.

This week, the lesson found me in the glitter and glorious heart of Kinky Boots, in the rainbow magic of Pride, on a football pitch where fierce competition and deep compassion stood side by side... and finally beneath a moon that quietly whispered,

“Come home.”

Home to your heart.

Home to your intuition.

Home to the wildly beautiful, slightly witchy, gloriously imperfect soul you’ve been all along.

I’ve woven it all together in this week’s New Moon post, along with a deliciously simple ritual to help you release what no longer fits and remember the shape of your truest self.

🌿 Grab a cuppa.
🕯️ Light a candle.
🌙 Then click the link in my bio and come home.

Because, delicious lovely... the world doesn’t need another watered-down version of you.

It needs YOU. 💙

They burned herbalists as witches for three centur They burned herbalists as witches for three centuries and called it heresy. They called it medicine without a license before licenses existed, devil worship. The Malleus Maleficarum specifically targeted women who healed because it worked without the church.

The institutions that lit the pyres built pharmaceutical companies. Aspirin is willow bark, morphine is poppy, digoxin is foxglove, Taxol is Pacific yew, and Metformin is French lilac.

She was killed for giving it to you for free while he was awarded a patent for putting it in a capsule.

The word “pharmacy” comes from the Greek pharmakeia and it means sorcery.

Receipts: Malleus Maleficarum (1487). Aspirin derived from Salix alba (willow bark), Bayer 1899. Digoxin from Digitalis purpurea, first described by William Withering 1785. Taxol from Taxus brevifolia, NCI 1967. Metformin from Galega officinalis. Pharmakeia: Strong’s Greek 5331.

Because at some point in midlife something shifts. Because at some point in midlife something shifts. And it’s not that we become mean or difficult or hard to be around.

It’s that we spent decades shrinking ourselves to fit into spaces that were never designed for us.
Softening our words so nobody felt uncomfortable. Swallowing our opinions to keep the peace. Apologizing for taking up space. Managing everyone else’s feelings while completely abandoning our own.

And then perimenopause shows up and strips away every single fuck we had left to give. 😤

And suddenly we can see it so clearly.
How much energy we wasted.
How much of ourselves we gave away.
How long we managed everyone else’s comfort at the expense of our own sanity.
That’s not meanness babe. That’s awakening.

Midlife isn’t turning us into difficult women.
It’s turning us into honest ones.
Women who finally value their own peace enough to stop performing comfort for people who never once worried about ours.

And I will never apologize for that.
Not even a little bit. 😇

If you have officially entered your “not my problem anymore” era drop a 🙋‍♀️ below because we are exactly where we are supposed to be. 💛
⚽🌕 Plot twist... Football and the Full Moon have m ⚽🌕 Plot twist... Football and the Full Moon have more in common than you think.

They’re both about momentum.

They’re both about passion.

And sometimes... they’re both about that one magical moment that changes everything.

As June blows the final whistle, the Full Moon is asking a simple question...

What are you ready to change?

Not because you’re broken.

Not because you’ve failed.

But because you’ve grown.

I’ve pulled three cards for this final reading of June, and one of them is quietly calling your name. 👀✨

Will it be the message you need to hear before stepping into July?

There’s only one way to find out...

🌕 Pick your card.
⚽ Trust your intuition.
✨ Let Spirit surprise you.

And when you’ve watched... come back and tell me which card chose you. I absolutely love hearing your stories.

Every culture that ever looked at the sky knew thi Every culture that ever looked at the sky knew this day mattered.

The Norse lit bonfires so large they could be seen from the next village. The Celts called it the Light of the Shore and believed the veil thinned in blazing light instead of darkness. The Slavs jumped over fires to seal their bonds. The Romans made June sacred for weddings.

🌞Litha is an old English word meaning gentle, navigable. The time when the sea was calm enough to sail.

Beneath all the names, all the traditions, all the fires one truth:

The sun is at its peak. Everything is fully illuminated. 

Even the parts of yourself you usually keep in shadow.

Remember: building community, your village, whatev Remember: building community, your village, whatever you want to call, takes work. It takes vulnerability in putting yourself out there and also receiving. Building intergenerational community takes time, effort, and consistency. Don’t get discouraged get intentional.

🔥🌞 Oi, gorgeous soul... your Inner Fire called. I 🔥🌞 Oi, gorgeous soul... your Inner Fire called.

It would like a word.

Summer Solstice is almost here and the Sun is strutting around at full power, reminding you that you weren’t born to play small, dim your light or tuck your dreams away in a dusty cupboard marked “maybe one day.”

This is your invitation to celebrate how far you’ve come, reconnect with what truly matters and ask yourself:

✨ What wants to grow?
✨ What wants to be illuminated?
✨ What am I ready to say YES to?

To help you work with this powerful Solstice energy, I’ve released my gloriously magical 40+ page Summer Solstice Guide (affectionately known as SASS because every witchy soul needs a little more SASS).

And after a lovely natter with my guides, I’ve also opened two special readings:

🔥 Your Solstice Light
🔥 The Fire Within

Just 21 reading spaces are available and, lovely one, these will be the last special readings I’ll be offering for a while as the weekly readings take a pause and I step into some deeper magic behind the scenes.

The portal is open.

The Sun is blazing.

The Faeries are probably causing trouble.

All that’s missing is you.
