Spiritual Guidance

Grief, Gratitude and Daily Practice.

Happy Marvellous, Merry, Musical, Mystical, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday!

How are you – really?

I ask as I truly want to know. Our patterns of processing anger, fear, change, anxiety and grief are not linear. We don’t work through them daily from point A to point B and then tada – happy, happy, happy.

An example. On Wednesday, as I opened the fridge to peruse what to make for dinner, hiding behind the pickles was a huge dark weight of everything going on in our world and it bolted out of the fridge and hit me full on in the chest. Holy Hannah! All of a sudden such a deep grief came roaring up to the surface, cracking open my strong defenses that had been holding my own grief, pertaining to my sister at bay, and I hit the floor. Literally!

I sobbed, and sobbed and sobbed for a good 4 hours. After I gave up the battle of trying to stuff it all down and just allowed it to flow, images of this time last year when I was in the UK walking the path with my sister as she said goodbye to life, this world and to me came pouring out. Yet even in the midst of the anger, grief and rage was gratitude.

Gratitude that she wasn’t having to go through her cancer journey during Covid and this massive paradigm shift. Gratitude that I was feeling the grief. Gratitude that I had the privacy to sob like a snot filled maniac for hours and not have to worry about “managing others reactions”. Gratitude that when the last exhausted tear finally seeped away I could make a nice, hot cuppa tea and snuggle into bed and sleep safely. Now you may be thinking – Jenn, those aren’t things to be grateful for. But they are!

In 4 months, our world has become unrecognisable. So many of our routines have been completely thrown out the window or off balance and there is so much that is still unknown.

I hear people asking “When do we get back to normal (there is no normal). How long will we work from home? What if I’m scared to go back to my job? When will I be able to reconnect with my loved ones? Will schools be open in September?” And the list goes on.

So how do you stay sane, positive and resilient in this environment? As we are only part way through this glorious paradigm shift (hate to be the one to break that to you), and things are going to get even more peculiar and at times weighty.

A Daily Practice and Gratitude! (Seriously!!)

Why do these things? Firstly, a daily practice helps you ground, reconnect to the earth, to your highest self and to the energy of love.

So for example every day I get up in the morning, meditate, pray, work with my cards, set my energy for the day before I do anything! I don’t look at my phone, I don’t check my emails, I don’t even answer the phone if it rings! Next, I grab Danu and we go for a 10km yomp in nature where I chant, watch the birds, pick up rocks and allow Gaia to fill me up from the tips of my toes to the tops of my hair.

Then every evening I sit outside in the cosiness of the night sky and forgive. Forgive myself for anything that may have happened during the day. Forgive others for anything they have directed at me that wasn’t delightful. Then I cut the cords, release them and move into a state of Gratitude.

Secondly, Gratitiude is not passive! Gratitude is an attitude and it is action based. It’s consciously looking for things to be grateful for. Maybe a parking spot opened up just where you needed it. You received a cool card in the post. Someone took the time to listen to you. Whatever it is, be grateful. Recognise it, see it and let it fill a wee corner of your heart.

Gratitude doesn’t have to be big and flashy – it’s not about the bling. It’s about the awareness to appreciate and notice the lovely pieces, experiences and people in your life that make you smile and which nourish you. (Often I am grateful for my warm, cosy bed that I am going to curl up in, or a cuppa tea, and most certainly my doggo!) And then with this awareness of all the lovely little things that I’m grateful for I thank the Lord and Lady for the day and invite guidance and support as I sleep.

These are non negotiable practices for me! As a highly sensitive, intuitive empath, without them I would get swept up in the craziness, fear, anxiety, anger and bitterness and would totally lose my touchstone, my sense of connection and being part of something bigger.

So let me ask – what’s your daily practice?

How do you bring yourself back to centre and reconnect to something bigger than yourself that loves you to pieces?

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

“These guides have come to help you awaken and express your divine feminine spirit, to live from your heart, to empower your true self – and to discover your sacred rebel within, to say no to the voices of fear and hate and become a voice for love, truth and spirit on the earth. Living as a soul, with truth, takes real courage in this world. We are often taught to follow the rules and be a good boy or girl – and that if we do this, everything will be OK. Your inner goddess thinks that is a bunch of nonsense. She wants so much more for you. She wants you to live a beautiful divine destiny. She will show you how to be a loving rebel, breaking the rules that go against your heart and soul, changing the game and playing from the heart. She’ll show you how to live the life that is meant only for you. You are meant to stir up healing change and be a voice for what is wise, loving and true. There are issues in our own lives and the world that need to change, that need to be healed. Your inner goddess knows how to bring about healing change with love, playfulness, courage and dignity. She is a fearless minx who will help you dance, love, storm and laugh your way into a more beautiful world, created from the heart. “

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time. Woosah!

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

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

ANGEL OF TRUTH

The truth wants to be told, needs to be heard. It may seem like the whole world wants to believe in a lie, and so you wonder if you are crazy, if you are the only one who is thinking differently and desiring the real story to emerge. Yet those that fight against the truth are even more in need of it! There can be no healing, no freedom, no moving one without it.

You are going to be blessed with a truth revealed, a realisation about yourself, the world or others that will bring you relief. It will happen at the right time. It will set your soul free.

Sometimes, the lies we are repeatedly told become so familiar that we forget that they are lies and begin to believe that they are real. Maybe it’s someone judging us that is the lie. Maybe it’s advertising and the media, which are often more about deceptive manipulation that a source of correct information. Whatever the source, all untruth teaches us the same thing – that we must be afraid and hate each other.

When we are fed so many false truths, it can become hard to remember what real truth feels like. It can even start to seem like the truth doesn’t matter as much as being able to convince another person to accept your point of view. This is like poison for the soul.

The soul needs truth like your body needs air. It keeps it alive. Deep in your soul, you know what is true, and you know when you, or anyone else, is not being truthful. You are sensitive enough to know that only truth feels good for you. You must give yourself permission to be truthful with your own soul and live honestly, authentically and bravely in this world. It is the only way for you to be really you.

QUEEN OF HEARTS

Your heart has been chosen by the Divine to be a temple for spiritual light, an inner place where grace and healing can dwell. This is very special. A temple is kept clean and pure, scented with sacred perfumes of incense, made beautiful with our feelings uncluttered and spacious so that as much spiritual presence as possible can enter.

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

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

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

EARTH GODDESS

To live the dream, we have to surrender the fantasy. This can be painful. It feels like the end – when, in fact, it is the beginning. Once the pain passes, there is the joy of what we have yearned for coming to life. It may not be as perfect as the fantasy, but it will be real, and it can nourish us. We can build our appetite for life with dreams, but we cannot be fed by them.

The soul requires real life experience to become fully alive, to have experiences and grow. There’s a fantasy that wants to become reality for you. Don’t let a few gritty moments or human imperfections prevent you from experiencing the joy of heaven on Earth.

You have beautiful dreams and wonderful visions of what life could be. It is not enough to imagine them. You want to live them! This is exactly how you are meant to feel. For that to happen, you must practice feeling grounded, taking practical earthly steps, one at a time, to bring your dreams to life.

The Universe will send so much help your way, but you are the one who must take the steps. Spirit cannot do that for you. Even if you are not sure how your biggest, boldest dreams can come together, you can still ask yourself, “What is it that I can do now?”

Remember you are an Earth Goddess. You have the power to manifest your visions, to bring your beautiful ideas to life in the world. This is what you are here to do. Remember to love yourself enough to recognise your creative power and use it joyfully each day.

Woosah! Wonderful guides for this week as we navigate the twists and turns that we are being offered as a collective. Wishing you a glorious week filled with ease, authenticity, kindness and laughter. Allow any “sticky” emotion out, create a daily practice that nourishes you and remember to be grateful for even the smallest thing. I personally am exceptionally grateful for you and your presence on this earth. Big hugs and squeezes!

Post eclipse, Shamanic June Energy Shift and Solstice is only two weeks away!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy Magickal, Miraculous, Musing, Magnificent, Mature, Manifesting Monday! How are you delicious lovely? How was your last week and the eclipse energy for you?

I ask because many of you emailed and messaged saying you felt soooooooo out of sorts and I think a few of you used the word “fucked”. I can totally relate! My energy last week was all over the map, from panic, to anger, to anxiety, to fear, to needing to just be on my own to wanting to be sort of around others. It was bizarre! (And I hate to tell you that June is going to be even more intense, with more eclipses and Solstice and some very interesting Astrology).

What I really noticed for myself was “Judgement”, that was the energy that was so prevalent for me. Judging people who tried to walk into me in grocery stores, and when I would say “hey honey 6 feet” – they would look at me as if I was mad and advise me that “Silly, this Covid thing is done now.”!!!! Judging myself, judging Trump ad his ridiculous behaviour, judging pubs that have packed patios, which aren’t 6ft apart. Actually I was judging fairly much anything and everyone and judgement is never kind or supportive.

I took myself on a judgement detox over the weekend as I seriously needed to shift the energy. And I was reminded by Gabbie that when we are in judgement (whether it be of ourselves or others), we have separated from source (Spirit and Love) and see ourselves as this little dust mote being flung around by the breeze of whatever is moving in the world. Ahhhhhhhhh, yup! So after taking myself through a few lovely processes and rituals and then scrambling over rocky cliffs by the ocean, to be gifted 7 herons, 7 otters and 2 seals – I am back at centre and so frigging thankful, as we all need to keep coming from a place of love and connection!

With everything that is happening in the world, our communities, our families – more than ever we need to be connected. To remember we are all in this together! Whether it is Covid, BLM, creating the new world we want – all of it. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER! We all need to show up and share our voice!

Doing nothing is buying into the bullshit and platitudes and sticking our heads in the sand.

So it was no surprise when Lena shared what the Shamanic energy of June was – in fact I nodded my head, sighed and went looking for my big girl panties! If you remember April was “Creating the New”, May was “Reflection” and now June is “KEEP IT MOVING!”

As Lena says: This is an unstable, somewhat volatile and unpredictable month where everything is intensified by eclipses and challenging astrology. It is easy to get stuck in one camp or another, one attitude or another, much like getting caught in an eddy on a river, not being able to paddle out easily into the main flow. It will take some discipline to “keep it moving” as well as determination to move the energy physically through the body in an appropriate and positive way.

Whenever there is instability and unpredictability, there is great support for change. We have to be careful that we don’t create change through negative reactions but rather through positive, determined and proactive focus, keeping track of our goals as everything seems to be dissolving around us. The mind will spin in circles, creating anxiety and worst-case scenarios. The emotional center can be angry, vengeful, irritated, despairing or depressed. So it is up to the moving center to “keep things moving”. You can read more from Lena here.

Wow, and then we have Summer Solstice (or Winter if you are in the Southern Hemisphere) and the energy that comes with both of these points on the Wheel of the Year is huge! So much so that I have been preparing two glorious packages to help, inspire and support you to make the most of the energy at this time.

One is called B.O.S.S. (Book of Summer Solstice) and one is called B.O.W.S (Book of Winter Solstice) and they will be available by about Thursday this week.

Okay, so let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and asked who they wanted to work with I smiled with delight when I saw they had picked “The White Light Oracle.”

Now, if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you – as it would be rude not to – to the glorious guides of “The White Light Oracle”:- Let us guide you into the luminous realm of the sacred. The scared is your heart treasure. It is that which brings light into your life. The sacred is precious to you. It matters enough that you are willing to devote yourself to it – even when that requires courage, sacrifice and growth. The sacred generates inner warmth. It brings you joy. The sacred is a healing mirror that shows you the truth of your experience, which can include a compassionate reflection of your own suffering. It shows you how to heal. It inspires and protects you. What is sacred for your heart is unique to you. Yet, for every heart, the sacred is an experience of sublime love and deep meaning. The sacred helps us remember who we are and shows us how to manifest our inner purpose.

Oh gosh yes, we certainly need to work within the sacred and with our strong rebellious hearts at this time!

The crystals that were most insistent to join in are:- Ametrine – is a powerful combination of Amethyst and Citrine, connecting physical and spiritual realms. Ametrine is a very soothing stone. Rhodonite – – is a stone of compassion, an emotional balancer that clears away emotional wounds and scars from the past, and that nurtures love. Snowflake Obsidian – a stone of purity, Snowflake Obsidian brings about a balance to body, mind and spirit. Snowflake Obsidian helps to keep centered and focused when any type of chaotic situation (office, commute, home, etc.) presents itself. And of course a Selenite wand to amplify and clear.

Okay dear one, take a moment to just settle in and breathe. See any sticky pieces dropping off you to the ground and a white light surrounding you. If you want to go deeper and clear and cleanse out your Chakras I have a lovely guided visualisation for you.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug at you, whisper in your ear with a message that you need to hear.

Did you remember to pick?

Then let’s go look, yes?

SACRED SCAR

Your inner and outer scars are marks of soul’s courage. They are signs of strength and survival, of your willingness to be alive.The sacred scar speaks of that which onced caused pain being transformed into higher knowledge and inner power. Trauma shall be transformed through spiritual initiation, leading you from the woundedness to wisdom. You have nothing to be ashamed of. You can trust your healing process and in the hidden higher purpose behind things happening as they do.

You are strong and you shall flourish on all levels.

Some experiences are hard to weather. Even when our intention is to trust, going through a challenging time is likely to give rise to suffering. Consider the mother eagle raising her precious eaglets in the sanctuary of a meticulously padded and fiercely defended nest. They know safety and comfort – until one day, the mother who provided unceasing nurturance abruptly pushes them out of the nest and into the air. She knows this is how they will learn that they can fly.

You don’t have to enjoy the process of growth, but you can always trust it has your best interests at heart. However, do not confuse negative, especially traumatic experiences as something Spirit has inflicted upon you. Spirit would love your growth to happen in the most joyful and peaceful ways possible. As your relationship to Spirit heals and strengthens, this can be the way you grow, more often than not.

Spirit will work with you to free you of negativities and bring you into the light, stimulating the sacred alchemical wisdom within your heart that knows how to distil goodness, grace and healing from even the most terrible experiences.

Do not give up.. You have the inner spirit to ensure even a negative experience will only cause positive growth in you and your life.

YESHE TSOGYAL 333

You shall overcome all obstacles. Success is imminent, to stay connected to your path no matter what and continue to apply yourself. Allow your spiritual path to support you in all areas of your life. Live by your spiritual beliefs. Seek out the support of your spiritual brothers and sisters for help when needed, but also trust that you are intimately and directly connected to the powerful divine light within. There can be a dramatic healing breakthrough when you rely upon your spiritual connection.

Spiritual teachings from Bhutan hold that the great Indian master Padmasambhava was called to Bhutan from Tibet to subdue demons that were causing difficulties for the people of the Paro Valley. He flew from Tibet to Bhutan on the back of a supernatural tigress. The supernatural tigress is Yeshe Tsogyal, a yogini guardian for humanity and an emanation of the compassionate goddess of peace, prosperity and long life known as White Tara.

Yeshe Tsogyal’s power is that of the tiger siddha or medicine of spirit tiger. She calls for a boldness of spirit and willingness to engage your challenges which will create the path to inevitable success. She represents our ability to generate the spiritual power necessary to accomplish what needs to manifest for the greatest good.

She augurs empowerment and healing by assuming a confident attitude and taking steps forward. She lets you know that a negative time is drawing to a close and encourages commitment to the task of overcoming negativities through spiritual practices suited to you. You have the precious gift of such a path.

The repeated three symbolises that all manner of assistance and support will be granted to ensure your attainment. This will include the gifts of appropriate teachings and teachers, friends, healers, synchronicity, circumstances and opportunity. Trust the Universe and go for what you want with boldness and courage.

Truly, you are a lightworker. Embrace it and live it!

MAGNETISM OF EROS

Trust in what your heart yearns for without concern about how it will manifest. Take steps toward that which moves your heart. Reach out for what your soul wants and needs. Allow yourself to be vulnerable, for only then can you be truly held. That which appears out of reach or unavailable to you is closer than you realise.

What is the magnetism of Eros? It is our soul’s fascination with that which appears different and calls to us at a deep level. This soul-deep attraction inspires us to remain open, be passionate and willing to engage with life, other people and new, vitalising pathways and practices that inspire us.

It keeps us moving on our authentic life path, living by the call of the heart. Your heart is being called to a particular path or way in life. It may not make logical sense, but to honour the call of the heart is to honour the needs of the soul.

Eros is a Greek word for love. On a spiritual level, ERos is our passionate, open, engaged love for life. When we experience Eros, we are ready to embrace our journey. It is an affirmation of life. It’s opposite is the destructive drive, known as Thanatos, which is the drive behind our undermining, self-defeating and self-harming behaviours. We may engage in such negative behaviours in a misguided attempt to heal ourselves or make ourselves feel better. To resolve the negative Thanatos drive whin us and in our world, we need Eros.

We need to embrace life, including our negative experiences. By acknowledging and healing our suffering, we can find the courage and wisdom to live more fully.

The challenge and gift of Eros leads us into our vulnerability. From there, we can also recognise our strength and dignity. We become able to let go and heal. Explore new pathways, especially if you feel out of your depth and a bit vulnerable in doing so – more so if they involve personal healing.

Trust where your heart is leading you.

Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer. Some very clear messages to support, inspire and guide you this week! How did your choice feel to you? Okay my darling one – hands clean, heart open, truth to be spoken and remember – you are not alone, we are all in this together. Oh yes, and the Solstice bundles will be ready by near the end of this week to support you. Sending you massive hugs and squeezes and such big love. Be kind and gentle with your gorgeous self!

We are on a Threshold, Eclipse Season is here, and Summer Solstice is coming!

Jenny Heston · 11:59 pm ·

Happy Marvelous, Magickal, Merry, Mighty, Magnificent, Manifesting Monday! The first Monday of June and gosh we have a lot to cover (so much so that I had to create another post), lol. So with that being said let’s go celebrate this magnificent Monday in style! As we unpack some interesting energy!

Okay, let’s start with Threshold, and you may be saying – Um, err, what? With everything that has happened in the past few months, we are at a place of Threshold. I don’t know about you, but you can feel it in the air, in the energy of the people around you, and in the collective consciousness. As the old “normal” crumbles (but is certainly fighting to stay), there is a sense of fear filled with expectation. A liminal time. A space where we are between the old and the new.

Often, when encountering thresholds, we talk as if our work is that of successfully “passing through” them. We speak of “making healthy transitions.” We seek out advice and support as we decide which thresholds to lean into and which to resist. The goal, it would seem, is figuring out how to travel forward in the right way. But what if we looked at it a different way?

“A threshold is a space to imagine a new way, and a new self. Not moving or pushing but sitting and cultivating… The goal is to allow you space and time to reflect on your past, present, and future. To imagine a new beginning…” Rev. Sara LaWall

What if a Threshold isn’t a place that you cross, but a place that you pause? A place that transforms you?

What if the invitation is to ask yourself daily:

What do I want to bring with me and what do I want to leave behind (or keep out) as I cross over?

If you want to explore this intense concept and energy further, with a super simple exercise that you can do daily to remind you it’s okay to stay in this space, come over here to explore the Threshold post.

Within this place of Threshold we start eclipse season this Friday, June 5th where we experience a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius. This eclipse will be guiding us to stand our ground, claim our power, and allow the voice of our inner fire to speak. It is the first in a trio of Eclipses, and as we walk this Eclipse Gateway over the coming weeks, we will discover a new path emerging, one that is very different from the path we were walking before.

A Lunar Eclipse has ten times the potential of Full Moon, and often clears a path that helps accelerate our soul journey, bringing massive shifts and change. Now if you remember 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.

So as Forever shares:- As this Eclipse falls in Sagittarius, we are likely going to find ourselves clearing thoughts, beliefs, and ideas in order to prepare for this new journey that is yet to unfold. We may have thought we were going one way, but often an Eclipse comes along to reveal a whole new path.

All the voices you carry within you deserve to be heard. Sometimes we work so hard to silence the voice of shame or guilt or anger, but there is also a power in learning to stop and listen to what it’s saying. If we constantly dismiss the harder or more abrasive thoughts and feelings when they arise, we never really get to understand them.

It’s not that we want to sit in our anger forever or allow our inner voice to become drowned by negative talk, but we also don’t want to ignore these voices and push them away. We want to listen to them and discover what they really mean. We want to hug each and every one of them, and see the value in what they have to share and offer.

When we listen to ourselves; when we really take the time to go within and listen, we catch things we may have otherwise missed. We learn things about ourselves, and we open to a new truth. It is not just our love and light that can teach us, but our pain, anger, jealousy, and resentment too.

We have to listen, find the jewels of wisdom that they offer, and then let them go.

Wowzer! So we have a place of Threshold – the liminal space, a Full Moon, our first eclipse and Summer Solstice only 3 weeks away! (Can you say there is a lot of energy to work with?)

Thus, the other day I heard my favourite book store had opened and was allowing 5 people in at a time, so I quickly skedaddled down there as I wanted a copy of Witch – Unleashed. After I purchased my book I took a wrong turn and saw this wee little store filled with crystals, statues, pendulums etc. I had literally never seen this store before, and as they were allowing one person in at a time I went in.

I took a quick browse around and there was nothing that really jumped out and grabbed me, then as I got to the door a flash of red caught my eye and down on a shelf near the floor was an Oracle deck that beckoned me. When that happens, I don’t think twice and so she came home and when I opened her up to Bless and Consecrate her, holy hannah, my whole body tingled.

So please let me introduce you to your new guides (whom I’ve been working with daily for the last 5 days) – Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle.

Seriously, the perfect guides for this time. Woosah!

I have chuntered on long enough (if you managed to read this far lol), so let’s crack on with the reading.

I invite you to just pause, envision that space in between, that moment where the invitation is to release and be willing to welcome a transformative way of living. As you breathe into that space allow your body to relax, to just settle and let the worries of the day, the moment, the second just drop like dust motes to the floor.

Then, when you’re ready pick the card or cards that whisper to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go meet your glorious guides!

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 fresh 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 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!

MOON CHILD

You have an opportunity to manifest something that you want very much. The Divine wants to bless you with assistance to bring a cherished dream to life. Begin by admitting the true desires of your heart.

Your heart has a special spiritual power which you can access through prayer. Prayer means speaking from the heart to the Divine. For you, the Divine might be an unconditionally loving and all powerful being, such as the Universe or Spirit. You may like to choose a deity from a religious tradition (even if you don’t belong to that religion) such as God or Mother Nature.

The Divine doesn’t mind who or what you pray to, so long as you feel a peaceful, unconditionally loving connection between the Divine and your heart. When you pray, you activate the heart and stimulate a portal of healing. The heart knows how to gain closure on emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual levels, showing you the way through unknown transitions and leading you faithfully to the light of a new day.

Your heart also knows how to receive blessings from the Divine. Divine blessings can help you in endless ways, and the Divine always knows exactly what you need and when you need it.

So what are you waiting for? It’s time to speak from your heart about whatever matters to you right now. Nothing is too small or too big for the Divine to help you figure out. Ask and you shall receive.

YOU ARE THE LIGHT

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

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

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

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

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

Be at peace, beautiful one, for the positive power of the light in you is stronger than any darkness.

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

Retrogrades, The Quantum Field and New Moon in Gemini.

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Maniacal, Magickal, Miraculous, Magnificent, Merry, Musical, Manifesting Monday!

How are you gorgeous one? I hadn’t planned on doing a reading this week as it is a long weekend here, however my delightful guides were most adamant as I have heard from a lot of you that the last week was tough, and the fluctuations went from wanting to put bodies in your freezer, to hiding out under the duvet, to just wanting to curl up in a ball and weep. I am not surprised! The energy right now is intense, we have so much happening – so grab a cuppa tea as we have lots to explore and how you can shift it. Ready?

Okay, first and foremost we have 4 planets in retrograde right now, and each has a different energy/vibration to it.

Pluto retrograde from April 24th to October 4th. – guides us to review and look to the past in order to work out what needs to be transformed in our lives and where our previous transformations have led us.

Jupiter retrograde from May 10th to September 13th. – Under this energy, we don’t want to spread ourselves too thin or lose sight of what is really important to us.

Saturn retrograde from May 10th until September 28th – Saturn is all about hard work but the right kind of hard work. Saturn wants us to work on things that are meant for us and not the things that are not.

Venus retrograde from May 12th to June 24th – this brings a dive into the underworld, encouraging us to question matters of the heart.

Can you see how that is a lot to perk and feel? And if you remember me saying the shamanic energy of this month is REFLECTION. Now some of you may be balking and saying “But Jenny we’ve been doing that for 2 months now”. Ahhhh, grasshopper this is not a one and done issue by any stretch of the imagination, and it’s interesting that this energy is in play with all the retrogrades. Why, you may ask?

Retrogrades are a time of reflection. They indicate when a planet’s energy begins manifesting on more of an internal level rather than an external one. So we are being taken on a journey inward, and our focus will be drawn to our feelings of security and stability. Which makes total sense as we see so many things that we “thought” were real crumbling around us.

On top of all this we have a New Moon in Gemini on the 22nd and at the beginning of June we start Eclipse season! Huzzah! (No don’t go running to the closet to hide, this is not the time). So before we explore what this New Moon looks like let’s look at a “tool” if you will to help you navigate this energy and to really shift things on a deep internal scale. Come on over to the Quantum Field where you can shift your perspective and create deep change.

As we know, everything is energy right and each energy has it’s own vibration? Thus, I want you to imagine the Quantum Field as this glorious, beautiful amazing energetic place which my wonderful friend Lisa calls – The Field of Infinite Possibilities. The first time she said that to me I immediately saw this stunning, safe, gorgeous meadow where every flower was a star, gently bopping in a gorgeous warm breeze!

So within this glorious field we are going to play the “What If” game, which is exceptionally powerful as it creates a different energetic vibration. As the Quantum Field responds extremely well to questions. Everytime you put a question into this field with intensity and genuine curiosity the Quantum Field’s ears perk up and say “Oh, you want to know that? You want to experience more of that? Here’s your answer.” Great yes?

However, let’s be honest here, how often do you play with energy from a place of fear? Think about it – What if I lose my job? What if I get sick? What if I’m alone for the rest of my life?……….and the list goes on! (See where I am going with this?) So by asking those questions we are actually inviting the vibration of those experiences in……..

What if for the next week (or preferably longer) we started asking better questions, more conscious questions, the questions of our soul, our essence? Because when you ask a question you are actually programming this glorious Quantum Field. Think about it, every amazing invention throughout thousands of years came from a question! What If – we could make power from wind? What if I put planks on a round thing and it moved faster? What if I could fly?

Write a list of questions for yourself (especially as we have a New Moon coming up) and use those as your gorgeous seeds to plant in your own personal Infinite Field of Possibilities and let’s get them growing! Start them all with “I wonder what it would be like to ………” “ I wonder what would happen if ……….”, “What if I was……”. Are you with me so far? Questions are most powerful with a genuine curiousity and energy behind them. For example if your question is “I wonder what it would be like if the world was changing for the better and focusing more on people than corporations?” Yes! Great energy and curiousity. Play this game and watch your perspective shift and things around you shift to match the new vibration you are playing with and plant that gorgeous Field of Infinite Possibilities with amazing flowers!

Next up is our glorious New Moon in Gemini on the 22nd (Friday for me). So let me share what Forever has to say about this New Moon:

The Gemini New Moon on May 22, 2020 is a busy one and involves energy from Venus, Mercury, Neptune, and Saturn. All of this cosmic activity may feel a little overwhelming, but there is a way we can use it to our advantage.

The New Moon represents the start of a new lunar cycle. It is a time to plant seeds, set intentions, and to think about what we wish to create. But it is also a time of turning inward.

Think of the New Moon like a seed that has been planted. The seed is programmed with a certain code but there it lies, buried in the dark soil, uncertain of what’s to come or what it will turn out to be. The New Moon is really the Dark Moon, when the night sky is dark and there is no Moon visible in the sky.

This is a time of magic, of darkness – not the darkness that keeps you up at night, but the darkness of transformation, of unknowing. There is magic in the unknowing. There is magic in being that seed that is waiting to sprout. It is how all creation begins and the New Moon is a time to honor and tune in to those creative powers.

As the New Moon falls in Gemini, the sign of the twins, we may feel pulled in two directions. We may feel our heart wanting to go one way, and our mind wanting to go the other. Or, we may simply feel a sense of confusion, a sense of loss or even hopelessness. The dark night of the New Moon can seem endless, but the light will always return.

The Gemini twins also represent being connected to earth and connected to heaven. Being the bridge between these two states is what life is all about and we may be reminded of this on the New Moon. How do we live connected to the physical reality we see and the spirit reality we feel?

Retrograde Saturn is active on this New Moon too and provides some grounded energy. It supports us in setting goals and thinking about things in a more practical and methodical way. Saturn wants us to use our powers of creation on this New Moon to make wise choices that will stand the test of time. Saturn calls for us to get real with what is happening in our lives. It wants us to think about the long term and put plans in place as best we can.

What steps and actions can you take on this New Moon that will support and nourish your future and where you wish to head? While Saturn adds some practicality and earthiness, we also have strong water and air energy floating in from Mercury, Venus, and Neptune. In order to navigate this energy, go within to the place of your own inner knowing.

We have so much energy in the cosmos right now supporting us to dive in deep and to trust the process that is unfolding around us.

Rather than getting lost indecision, we are asked to wait and trust that we will be guided to the right answers. The right answers are always there, and with a gentle patience, we will break free of the fog and find our way to where we need to be.

Phew, so there is a lot of reflection, shifting perception and planting seed energy galore!

When I went to the cards and asked them who wanted to guide and support this week I was delighted to see that the Earth Warriors Oracle were most adamant. Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you (as it would be rude not to)!

There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word “struggle” from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

Oh my gosh, positively perfect! The crystals that wiggled and jiggled to come to play are:- Snowflake Black Obsidian, Morganite and Shadow Quartz. Woosah! So let’s take a moment to settle, just BE and breathe.

As you breathe I invite you to welcome into your minds eye the Infinite Field of Possibilities. See it waiting for you to step into it, not from a place of fear or ego, but a place of trust, what if’s and magnitude. Breathe. If you need some more support with this I have a delicious guided visualisation that will help just below.

Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that pull at you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

ANKA – Kin of the Red Hawk Tribe

On the wings of Red-tailed Hawk, a divine message comes. Your spiritual maturity has evolved into genuine power and discernment. You have earned your stripes. Acknowledgement is granted. Trust yourself and your destiny. You are ready. Trust in your sense of timing, which is excellent and inspired. Allow the Divine to support you as you hover, until the moment comes for you to fearlessly plunge into your forthcoming adventure.

You are more mature spiritually than you may realise. You have an ability to share wisdom and honesty with your tribe. If you are still searching for your tribe, trust yourself. You will recognise them instinctively when you meet them, even if on the outside they seem different to you.

You are seeing things clearly, so trust your vision and have patience. Speak your truth, but do so with compassion, because your words have greater influence that you may realise. When the moment is right, take action. A way will be shown for you to manifest your spiritual light in this world in practical ways.

ELHAZ – Divine Might Foretold

You know what is correct. You understand that any gain which comes from denying your values and compromising yourself creates a loss of soul. There are times when it may seem as though people who act without integrity are obtaining benefit without negative repercussions. Life can seem unfair if you limit yourself to a strictly human perspective. Yet nothing escapes the attention of the spiritual worlds. Restorative action and balancing fairness is always in action at a higher level, put your faith in divine justice, and you will win in a way that brings benefit to many.

Don’t let yourself down with behaviour or attitudes that are unworthy of you. You have divinity within you and a right to be in the world with dignity, grace and integrity. Whether in a small matter of apparent insignificance to anyone other than yourself, or in big matters where you feel your soul, and perhaps the souls of others, are on the line, integrity will be your saving grace.

You can be kind of heart, but also firm as you refuse to allow anyone or anything to convince you that lowering your standard of acceptable behaviour is warranted. Be in right relationship with yourself and the Divine. Justice will always be done, whether you see it happening or not. Put your faith in the good and true, and you will successfully continue on your path.

Others are relying on you to be true to yourself, more than you may realise. You are strong enough to live with honour.

AMAROO – The Beautiful Place

Your dreams of a more beautiful world are not a product of childish fantasy, nor idle imagination. They are true spiritual visions inspired by the universal heart that yearns for divine paradise to be manifested in all worlds. You have a life purpose to assist in the creation of divine harmony in the world, through sacred activism and the expression of your soul talents. Believe that the beautiful world you long for is not only possible, but part of your spiritual responsibility to create.

Don’t be scared to face a problem head on. You don’t need to be wilful about a solution, but, in facing the issues, you shall simplify the complexity and recognsie the practical steps that will create healing change. Keep your mind and heart open as you ask for unconditionally loving guidance as to how you best evoke divine healing in any situation. There is an outcome available to you that is far more beautiful and divinely inspired than what you can currently envision.

Ask for divine help, and trust unconditionally in the assistance that will lead you away from the limitations of your current thinking, into the perfection of what the Divine wishes for you and our world.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Seriously you can’t make this shit up! Wishing for you most gorgeous one a week filled with amazing “What If” questions, reflection, ease and huge laughter. Be kind and gentle with yourself and most certainly a plate of warm, yummy biccies! Huge hugs and love.

Mothers Day, Surrealism, Are you Here and Now?

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magnetic, Miraculous, Marvelous, Magickal, Mysterious, Manifesting May Monday! How are you delicious one? Happy, happy Mothers Day whether you have children or not, is irrelevant. We all nurture little people in our lives in some shape or form. Oh yes and thank you to all who gave me advice on rats in the garden, there is no poison down – a rat zapper and I have a slingshot!

Okay, I have to say, even with everything the way it is in the world, I had an awesome Mother’s Day, in fact better than some of the prior ones! (Who would have thought!) 3 of my boys and two of their girlfriends came over in the morning and we went for a social distance dog walk along the beach and Mother Nature had gifted us with a glorious hot, hot, day! We skipped stones, told bad jokes, laughed and shared memories of trying to cook seaweed and how horrid and rubbery it had tasted (which it had).

Each of us had prepared some food for a picnic. I had made finger sarnies and packed them in individual tupperwares for everyone so we didn’t share cutlery. Plus I also made carrot cake cupcakes with lemon cream cheese icing (nom), all individually done and bunches of grapes all individually done. The others brought veggie sticks, home made pesto, cookies, juice boxes and chips – each in individual containers. We found a glorious shady spot in a park, put our blankies down and shared food together and then had an amazing game of HORSE (originally called Donkey) – now if you have never played it it is such great fun. All you need is a soccer ball, a sense of humour and the willingness to lose! Bsically if you miss the ball when it’s whipped at you, and forget to clap prior to catching it you get a letter and the minute the word Horse is spelt, you are out!

I quickly figured out why the boys changed the name of it from Donkey to Horse as I was fabulous at not winning every time and so they would say: what letters do you have Mum? I’m HO (say that outloud and keep in mind young male humour), what letters do you have now Mum? I’m HOR. (Need I say more?) The two girlfriends bailed after 5 minutes as they aren’t used to the level we play at, nor the speed – ah well. But it was glorious fun and the doggos ran around trying to get the ball, which made me laugh.

Afterwards as we were hanging out on our blankies blowing bubbles for the dogs, I looked around the park and I saw family groups hanging out, eating together, chatting and the sun was shining and it was positively surreal. The scent of the lilacs and wysteria in bloom were wafting on the breeze and peacocks were walking by. I thought, if an alien had come down from space they would probably think we were just “well” behaved Canadians. It was as if everyone there was on holiday, just hanging out, playing, laughing and really making the most of the day. Very surreal. We were complying with all the safety and health measures in place and actually having a more real, deeper, fun connection than we did this time last year! The only phone that came out during the four hours was mine to take a photo.

Later on someone phoned me, distraught, angry and frustrated. As I listened it was apparent she was stuck in the past – lost in nostalgia (which I understand as I have been reflecting on things as well) and she was trying to second guess the future. As I listened I realised that she was having a supremely tough time being in the Here and Now. This day, and if a day is too big to imagine, this moment, this one minute. As we were having this conversation I reflected on the fact that one of the secrets to happiness is letting every situation be what is, instead of what we think it should be.

And sometimes we can do that, and other times we rail and rebel against it with rage!

Then it brought to mind a wonderful interview that I heard with Dr. Aisha Ahmad who has lived in many conflict zones, and she shares some words of wisdom. “The initial feeling of shock and loss during a crisis can feel overwhelming, Ahmad said, and the frenzy of productivity we saw in the early days of the pandemic was likely a response to a feeling of loss. She said it is necessary to slow down and give yourself time to examine and accept your current reality.”

“It is easy to focus on the limitations and deprivations of our current pandemic lives, what Ahmad referred to as ‘walls.’ But she said there is light between the walls and we can train ourselves to find it.

Once a day, embracing the world as it is and asking it to show you something new that it can offer you, that can keep you healthy and well in this day,” she advised. “That small technique, just asking every day — what can you do differently and how can you be different that might be enriching and satisfying — will keep you happy in a way that’s more sustainable.”

I love the idea of embracing the world as it is and asking it show you somethin gnew that it can offer you. There are so many gifts and opportunities in this situation.

So with all of that chuntering on, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and cards and asked who wanted to show and shine – the deck that came out loud and proud this week is The Oracle of the Divine Circus. The reason I laughed is these glorious guides are playful, but deep. They think outside the box and invite you to do the same.

If you have never met these glorious guides, please let me introduce you. “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 a moment 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. “

Ahhhhh, doesn’t that just sound delightfully delicious? The crystals that literally threw themselves out of the bowl to come play are:- Ametrine – is a powerful combination of Amethyst and Citrine, connecting physical and spiritual realms. Ametrine is a very soothing stone. Grossular Garnet – enhances relaxation and going with the flow, and inspires service and cooperation.Last but not least, Citrine – highly protective and enhances optimism. These are then all topped with a Selenite wand for amplification.

Glorious Wysteria and Lilac insisted on coming to the party, and their scent is divine!

So delicious one. I invite you to take a moment to come to your centre. Just breathe. And when you are ready I invite you to bring in the question about what do you need to be nourished in the here and now? Breath that in and when you are ready pick the card or cards that whisper.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look!

THE JUGGLER

Many projects in the air; aspirations and inspirations everywhere. Action to take, commitments to make and yet another will soon join the fray! Say yes, do not delay. It will all work out in the perfect way.

You are capable of many things and you are too important an asset to the plan of love on this planet to be left idle. So life, the universe and your own creative urges will ask a lot of you. There will be many inspirations, ideas and dreams that you will yearn to bring to life in the world. You might wonder if it’s all a bit too much for any one person to handle. You might feel you are juggling so much already that if even one more demand or idea comes through, you’ll drop the balls already in the air, and the whole damn thing will come undone!

The Juggler is the master multi-tasker. He brings the skills, wisdom and tricks you need to not only successfully bring to life all your current dreams and ideals, but to be open to even more flowing through you. If you feel overwhelmed, you are letting yourself get ahead of yourself, allowing your mind to move too far into the future. Bring it back to now, to just what can be done now. Let tomorrow take care of itself. Prioritise, what do you need to do most today, and what can be left until later? Remember to ask for help and remember that your individual success is actually part of the greater group success. The universe wants you to succeed. It will keep an eye on the pots on the boil whilst you stir the one that is bubbling over now. You are going to manage all that is going on in your life if you remember to stay present and relax, deal with what is immediately happening and not worry about any other distractions. You’ll not only handle all that’s currently going on, but when another opportunity heads your way, you’ll add it to the mix with grace!

GYPSY COLOMBINE

The free spirit in you is rewilding itself, shedding social conditioning and past patterns of behaviour. It is shaking off socialisation and emerging anew like a snake shedding a skin. The wild one within isn’t a save. It is raw, yes, but also wise, authentic, beautiful and with a deep instinctive knowing as to what you must be. Can a bird ever be truly happy whilst trying to be a fish? True freedom is to be truthfully yourself.

Politeness and people-pleasing, not out of respect but out of fear you will otherwise be rejected, is a form of social conditioning that dulls the wild one within. If you reject that conditioning in favour of re-wilding, of getting in touch with your true instincts and nature, you will exchange lukewarm tolerance from others for their passionate admiration and love. And for those that cannot love you, that are afraid of how much life is in you, then let them be. They do not belong in your world, nor you in theirs. The jungle of life is a vibrant, colourful and exciting place, but not everyone is ready to live there as yet. That is jUst the way of things sometimes.

It’s time to let yourself off the hook, to forgive and forget, to allow what’s been to have been and to start again. No regrets. No fear. No doubt. It’s time to heed the call of the wild and ask yourself, “What would set my spirit free?”

SECRET OF SHINOBI

Shhhhhh! Can you keep a secret? It’s time to play your cards close to your chest. Soon enough, you’ll be ready to stand upon the mountain top for all to see and hear. For now, let things unfold in the guarded privacy of your inner world. When the time is right to be seen in the light, you’ll know what is true and what to do. Until then, be patient, be private, be committed and wait for the right time to shine.

Sometimes being less visible, less transparent, less “seen” for a time is helpful. It doesn’t mean being dishonest or deceptive, but it does mean keeping your intentions and your truths to yourself until you see the best way to attain your goals. In fact, the best way to attain your goals might be more of the “iron fist in velvet glove” approach. You might find that gentle persuasion works far better than direct confrontation, which can unintentionally inflame a situation and trigger defensive reactions in others instead of finding a way to bring resolution.

When it is time to show your hand, to reveal your intentions and speak more openly and publicly about what has been gestating, you’ll know it; but for now, let things come together away from prying eyes. Just for now, it’s time to keep a secret.

Oh my gosh, wow. Asking for help, shedding social conditions, and reflecting and being close to yourself for now. Lol. You seriously can’t make this shit up! Oh yes, as we have been migrating and changing my site the mentor information hasn’t gone out yet, however, it will to all of those who asked and followed up. Sending you big hugs and love for this week. Take time to breathe and be in the here and now and ask this day to show you something new that it can offer you, that can keep you healthy and well in this day. There will be no reading next week as it is a long weekend, so I want to take time to play, create and do daft shit! Big hugs and squeezes!
