Happy Magickal, Mystical, Magnificent, Majestic, Meaningful, Miraculous, Manifesting Monday!
How are you delicious lovely? It feels like we haven’t connected for ages, but in reflection it has only been a month! But thank you so much for all your wonderful emails, sharing your stories, and asking if the readings were coming back. They were all read and greatly appreciated!
I don’t know about you but January has been playing with time in weird ways. One moment it feels as if it was zipping by, and the next moment it felt as if it was dragging on for nearly a year! (Most discombobulating!)
Tomorrow (February 1st) brings us Imbolc, a New Moon and Chinese New Year, lots of delicious energy to invite you to gently awaken and plant new seeds, and to support you with this I have created a gift for you! (Think of it as a spiritual gardening guide lol).
And I want you to ask yourself – what are your seeds going to be?
What is your Truth? What do you Desire? (This isn’t about what your mind says you “should do”, it’s about what your heart and soul are calling you to do). Those are two powerful questions to ask yourself and then listen to the whispers that arise.
I love the energy of Imbolc, it’s gentle, inviting and nurturing. It’s a time of AWAKENING.
Not a TO DO Awaken, but a gentle stirring, a slight flexing and a big stretch.
From the hibernation of Winter we oh so gently move into the hope of a spring to come, something new and delightful. From the dark cocoon, we peek to see if things have changed.
Spiritually, this is a time of new life coming into manifestation. We may only be seeing the tiniest hints of life above the surface but things are really beginning to stir in the darkness.
So come back to the questions – What is Your Truth? What do you Desire?
It occurred to me the other day that I haven’t written about Imbolc in depth before and so that got things perking and I created a gift for you!
I have named her Fabulous Imbolc (fondly referred to as FI, in honour of my amazing big sister).
FI will walk you through this delicious energy, invite you to awaken and guide you with a very easy ritual to allow the seeds of your soul to come to life. I hope you enjoy it.
Imbolc Blessings to you gorgeous one.
May the sun shine on your face, your desires rise to the surface and the seeds that you dream into being flourish throughout the year.
Imbolc also ties into the New Moon energy that we have. This is the New Moon that welcomes in a new Lunar Year (Year of the Tiger!)
This is a time illumination – the illumination that comes with waking up. But this illumination still has a very sleepy quality about it. And your consciousness is still very connected to spirit right now. Your dreams, your subconscious, Spirit – these are all really accessible this month.
Being open to all this spiritual energy can bring up a lot of intense emotion. This is a month of blustery winds & they’re swirling all kinds of things up for us this month.
It may feel really chaotic & out of balance.
Remember to be so gentle with yourself this month. Just observe whatever emotions are coming up for you. Try to ride the wave of whatever changes you are facing.
“If you want to make some long-term commitments in your life, this New Moon would be the perfect time to set some intentions. Then after Mercury stations direct, that would be the perfect time to take action on them.”
Do you see the theme that is running through all of these events? I hope so!
Okay, I have chuntered on long enough (if you managed to read this far lol), so let’s crack on with the reading.
So please let me introduce you to your new guides – Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle.
“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!
Okay gorgeous one. Settle, just breathe yourself here into this moment. Breathe long and deep and allow the whispers of your soul to come to the surface. What is your Truth? What do you Desire? 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 about what anyone else has to say about it. The Universe will support you every step of the way – because it so enjoys you just being you!
CREATRIX
Your soul is a divine creative fire. She wants to break free from what has been and give life to something new. You may experience this as feelings of restlessness, of being confined or as a craving for something more that you cannot quite articulate. Your soul doesn’t want you to push that new life away. She wants you to embrace it. When you let go of your inhibitions and freely express yourself, stagnant situations will be cleared out by the powerful release of your energy, which creates openness. Let your inner artist out to play in whatever way feels fun, raw and honest for you. It’s time to experience something new.
You have the need and the ability for creative self expression. Whether it’s your look, your room, your art, your altar, your journal or your life, you need to be free to let the inspiration within find a way to take shape in the world. Some ideas will come together beautifully, straight away, and some will need to be revised or released completely, until you feel satisfied by the expression.
Your creativity is most powerful and healing when it is true. It is not about someone else getting it, or reaching some imaginary standard of perfection or making a million dollars. The Universe has a beautiful plan for your life. When we honestly and creatively express ourselves, we are playing with the Universe and helping that beautiful plan to unfold.
You know that the world created from our hearts is more valuable, beautiful and real than any world created from fear. Creativity is such a gift; it is worth the price of being different and not always being understood. You are an inspiration. Don’t hide your creative fire away. Let it burn and light up the world.
ON YOUR OWN TERMS
You are not the person you once were. You know it, but others might not always be ready to let the old you go so easily. Do not allow yourself to be shoved back into patterns of behaviour that are not true to who you are now. You have worked hard to grow and become this new self. Believe that she is more real than the old you, even if she is less familiar to others (and maybe even to you) at this stage.
All that will change, and what is new now will become familiar and easy for you to sustain in the near future. Be stubborn in a good way whilst you – and others around you – come to realise that the new you is the real you.
Others may offer their input, but when it comes down to it, it is you alone making your life decisions. Your choice may once have been to meet the expectations and honour the opinions of other people – but you are aware now that the best choices for you actually honour your own heart, irrespective of whether others understand your reasons or feelings.
You might have to practice not feeling guilty or selfish about choosing to live your life in the way that suits your soul. You might have to be patient with those around you who need some time to get out of the habit of expecting you to do as you are told. It may take some time for them to adjust to the way you are now, behaving and thinking based on your own inner guidance.
You now know that you don’t have to wait for permission. You get to choose how you want to feel, how you want to live, and who you want to be. You’re ready for the responsibility and sweet reward of living your life on your own terms.
Woosah! How fantabulous! So gorgeous one, please claim your free gift of Fabulous Imbolc, dance with your soul and your magic, allowing your seeds to come to light. Remind yourself how fantabulous you are and how so very loved you are. Wishing you a stupendous week, be kind to yourself, be gentle with yourself and in the way that fits for you – Awaken – we need your light. Big hugs and squeezes!
