Partial Solar Eclipse in Cancer! Which raises the question – What does Home mean to you?

Hello, hello my delicious lovely!  Happy Marvelous, Magnificent, Manifesting, ‘Mazing Monday!  (Yes, ‘mazing is a word or at least it is now.) How the heck are you?  How are you finding working with this gorgeous Fire and Passion season? Remember, if you find yourself getting too hot, overwhelmed and frustrated then take a little time to cool off both literally, figuratively, mentally and energetically.  There are some super easy pranayama’s that help cool the mind, the body and the energy. A super simple one is to curl your tongue like a straw, let it stick out of your mouth breathe in slowly through your tongue straw, close your mouth, hold and exhale through your nose.  Very cooling. Here the last week was rainy and cooler, I had gone and bought a ton of wood to build a shed and ended up tarping the back of the yard to keep the wood dry. Within about 3 days it was baking hot and I still haven’t taken the tarp down as it now provides shade whilst I build!  Even the dogs are hiding out there or in the house, or under the deck! So make sure if you feel heated you back off and cool it down a tad.

I had a very cool experience this last week and wow, if you doubt that the Universe is paying attention – let me write a reference for the Divine, she is listening very clearly and avidly.  What I have noticed in the last few years of magnificent manifestation is clarity is key! Phrase it clearly, put emotion behind it, forget the “how’s” or how it should look and trust. An example.  2.5 years ago I put something out there, very loosy goosy and rather vapid, last August I put it out there again with a bit more umph but my ego was most certainly getting in the way. On Solstice by the ocean I put it out there again with clarity, confidence and certainty.  Wow! 14 days later the Universe rolled out a series of events that were literally like a bulldozer clearing the path for me and saying – You asked, we listened, are you bold enough? Hells to the Yes!!!! (Though terrified as well!) So exciting adventures will be ensuing!

As I mentioned last week, we are heading into Eclipse season, and our first one is a solar eclipse on Thursday July 12th.  This delicious Eclipse happens in the soft and tender sign of Cancer at the New Moon. Now Cancer is the sign of “home”, that doesn’t necessarily mean a structure, it’s that feeling of where we belong, who our tribe is, who is our community, our work, do you feel at home in your body.  Yes? Now if you remember I mentioned last week that Eclipse’s bring all sorts of beautiful things to light, those feelings that have been hidden or stuffed, the dreams/aspirations that you’ve tucked into a box as “they don’t feel practical”. If you have been feeling a bit out of sorts, nostalgic, a tad fragile emotionally, reflective or confused then you are feeling the energy of the eclipse.  

So when I asked the cards who wanted to work with us all, guide, support, inspire and help us with this very transformative energy the Divine Circus Oracle literally jumped so high that it was like a hand to the forehead!  This is a gorgeous deck for the bold, the ones that find it hard to follow the rules “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 and opening doors we couldn’t even see were right there before us a moment earlier. “

Funnily enough before the crystals, the first things that insisted on coming to participate where the glorious Hansa roses (if you have never smelled one you need to find one!), and mint.  Why mint? Mint is a glorious cleanser and abundance attractor, pop a leaf or two in your wallet or purse and see what happens….

The crystals that came to play are Rose Quartz – to remind us to not stuff the feelings, numb or avoid, but to feel and know your heart is strong. Indigo Gabbro – helps unearth deep rooted issues in your psyche, it knows and gets you, it sees your weaknesses and totally understands your strengths, and strips away the false facades you have built up around you.  Smoky Quartz – is amazing for balancing and grounding as well as helping you to vibrate at your fullest potential as it releases negative emotions. Wow! The perfect cards and crystals for the first eclipse.

Thus, I invite you to just take a few moments for yourself, to nourish yourself, get clear and to breathe.  Breathe into your belly, into all the corners and down deep into your toes. Let’s practice the nice cooling breathe of breathing in through your curled tongue or pursed mouth long and slow and holding for two and then breathing it out through your nose.  As you breathe, feel your jaw relax, your scalp relax and your shoulders drop. There is nothing that you need to do right at this minute, this time is for you.

Then when you feel ready pick the card or cards that resonate or whisper to you.

Ready?

 

Shall we go have a look?

 

WHITE DUCHESS

Don’t look to what has been to find your destiny.  Your future is bright and blessed. If the pain of the past feels a little too close for comfort, White Duchess steps in to help you leave behind the emotional storms of your past and move into her protection.  A time of transition is upon you and soon your feet shall settle upon sacred ground, and calm shall prevail, inside and out.

Are you one of the many suffering in a dark and stormy inner world of post-traumatic stress?  Do you believe that because there have been struggles in your past, and perhaps at times even great pain, that this is how your future shall be too?  Or perhaps you have been striving towards a dream and it seems so long since you began that you are losing hope of ever breaking through into successful fulfillment and a new life.

Don’t look back.  Let the past be put to rest.  Whatever has haunted your dreams, whatever has caused turmoil is over.  It is not needed anymore. There is a future destiny calling to you now.  It is time to transition through into a new world, into your new life. Trust her and believe in the positive power of your future.  

DEATH SHALL NOT TAKE HIM

You are going to witness the impossible made possible.  Whatever you think is lost, is not. Whatever you think cannot be, shall be.  The universe is going to intervene and what seems to be over, shall in a new way, live again.

Sometimes, just when you think it’s all over, the eleventh hour comes.  You can practically hear the opening chords of your swan song, and when you have finally given up, suddenly, somehow, right before your eyes, everything changes – just like that.  You were free-falling and then, suddenly, you are soaring. Fate steps in, destinies are altered and life demonstrates its creative, restorative power, even if all seemed lost.

No matter how defeated you feel, no matter how many dead ends you’ve encountered, how many setbacks, how many failures, no matter how impossible success may seem, the universe has your back and is going to right things in your favour.  You will succeed. So if you really must (sigh) doubt for one more moment – go ahead, then replace doubt with trust and participate in the divine defiance of life refusing to be stepped on or crushed. Why not just frigging relax and bear witness to the universe’s impressive display of life-giving power with reverence and delight?  Gorgeous one – get out of your own way!

DUKE OF SHADOWS

Cunningly clever am I, helping you discern the truth from the lie.  I remind you that half truths may seem to be whole, yet in the shadows is information yet to be known.  When the time is right, the light shall be bright, and confusion will give way to understanding.

You are being invited to be patient.  This is a cautionary card, not to inspire concern, but rather to inspire curiosity.  There is more to a situation, person, opportunity, or even an apparent absence of activity or success, than meets the eye.  You could imagine it being like the universe has another card up its sleeve and is yet to show its full hand. A process has been set in motion but is “under the radar” of your awareness.  Something is happening, even if that doesn’t appear to be the case. But just like a seed starts to grow into a plant, deep in the earth, apparently invisible and yet very real, you are being subjected to invisible but real forces of growth and healing at this time.  

Because you cannot know what you don’t know, you will need to wait for more information to come to you.  So if what you see, sense or feel is negative right now, don’t believe it! Things are going to shift and change and there will be a surprising twist in your life.  Though you don’t see it coming, another piece of your life puzzle is going to reveal itself soon. It will help solve a difficulty or question you have been holding in your heart.

Firstly, thanks to everyone for your lovely emails, comments and messages, I love them!  Secondly, remember to be gentle with yourself this week, try to find little pockets of time where you can explore what you’re feeling and as New Moon approaches play with getting some clarity on an issue, or situation that you would like to see manifest.  Oh yes, remember, if you find yourself getting over heated whether due to hot weather, or energetically, practice the cooling breath, drink water and find a nice spot in the shade where you can put your feet in the grass! Have a superb week and see you next Monday.

Fall Back and Remember – Weekly Reading November 6th.

Happy Magnificent, Marvellous Monday!  (Have you been practicing reframing Monday as we discussed a few weeks ago?)  Did you enjoy the energy of the wonderful Full Moon on Saturday?  I was so thrilled when the clouds cleared and there she was in all her brilliant glory, suspended against the dark night backdrop and lighting up the snow that we received last week.  (Yes, yes, I did say snow – gulp!)  It was quite bizarre, the other day the afternoon was sunny, mild and felt like the most delicious Autumnal day ever and then the next morning – boom!  Huge cold Arctic winds and frigging snow!  (Can you tell how thrilled I am about it?)  Then on Sunday it was time to Fall Back – so in essence we kind of gained an hour which was lovely and it certainly makes the early morning explores with the hounds much more enjoyable (and visible).  

I was rather blessed on the weekend as I attended a Veteran’s banquet and it was so powerful, strong and poignant.  It wasn’t filled with political rhetoric, it was the sharing of stories, the honouring of those who have passed and the sharing of hope and gratitude for the freedom and the peace that we are fortunate enough to live within here in North America.  The next day I was in a grocery line up and I always wear a Poppy for Remembrance Day, which is coming up on November 11th, and as I’m waiting in line the chap behind me started a rather odd debate about the wearing of a Poppy.   He shared that he refused to wear one as it was a symbol of death to which I totally, 100% disagree.  The Poppy to me is a symbol of Remembering those who bravely went to fight for our freedoms and well being.  It is also a symbol of Hope, hope for our troops that are still deployed all over the world and Hope for a time of Peace.    If you don’t know the story of the Poppy I felt compelled to go learn as much as possible and there is a great post here.  As someone who was in the Military reserves and a reserve police officer and having friends who are in the military, let alone a father who was and a grandfather, I feel very strongly about the respect and honour that is due to those sacrifices and those that are still away from home.  So after this conversation with said gentleman I started thinking about Peace and Hope.  

Peace.  What is Peace?  What does Peace within you, Peace from you and Peace all surrounding you look and feel like to you?  So I invite you to take a moment, just a moment and breathe with that.  As you take a glorious deep breath in through your nose vibrate the word Peace in your mind and as you exhale through an open mouth send out the intention of Peace & Hope to whomever or whatever you choose.  Keep breathing in this way and repeating the vibration of Peace within you, Peace from you and Peace and Hope gently surrounding you.  When you feel ready, gently open your eyes and let’s go see what the message for this amazing week

The Sacred Rebels were adamant that they had to come out for this event and Rose Quartz insisted that they be the only ones (along with Selenite as an amplifier) to come play.  Which I thought was very appropriate as Rose Quartz is an amazing heart crystal.  

So let’s go pick shall we?

 

Ready to go see who wants to guide you this week?

 

INNER TRUST

Though it may be cloaked and hidden, within you lies natural magnificence, vibrancy and true uniqueness.  The harder this is for you to believe, the more growth you are being offered now.  Your opportunity for growth lies in letting go of the need to hide yourself from the world and to let go of any doubt about the wonder of what lies within you.  It is tie for you to trust yourself and let the real, inner you out from behind the veil.  

You know what you are doing!  You have enough wisdom and intuition to be able to place yourself more fully in the word, to take steps to unhide yourself!  Even if you feel you have no clue about what is happening at a broader level in your life, even if you can’t quite see the whole picture of what is taking place within or around you, you still have all the wisdom and intuitive ability you need to take one step at a time and navigate your way through absolutely anything that life brings to your door.  

This is not a time of self doubt or playing small.  It is a time to get in touch with the courage, boldness and dare-devil within, and to take that step, big or small, into the future that is beckoning you forward.  You have the wings to fly.  Sometimes we don’t realise it until we leap over the edge of what we have known and begin to soar into a new life.  

LEGACY OF LIGHT

You are being asked to honour the legacy of light that is your sacred birthright.  This is a sacred endowment from the great universal source of light to humanity.  It is the light of wisdom, creativity, radical courage, love and respect that is passed down from the heart of each generation to the next.  The legacy of light is your spiritual birthright to refine and shine your essence into the world….to be like a sun, radiant and unapologetic of your nature.  

The more you are nourished by this legacy of light from your past, the more you become a bearer of the legacy for those that will be supported by your light in the future.  A creative choice you are making, or have made, or soon will make, is one that is in alignment with your sacred purpose and spiritual path of healing and growth.  The legacy of light cannot be ignored without some detriment to your sense of wellbeing.  If you were asking about a particular question and chose this card, then part of the answer to your question is that the issue at hand is one of utmost importance to your spiritual growth – even if it seemed like  relatively insignificant question.  You are to shine!

The legacy of light also asks you to call on the unconditionally loving support that exists for you, every day.  This light will offer you all manner of assistance.  To not call upon it is like starving because you have no means to acquire food, whilst a feast lays before your eyes – if only you would partake of it!  You have some special creative and healing offering to make to the world in this lifetime.  You will leave a legacy of light for the greater good upon this planet and you will be lovingly supported in many ways by the great creative universal intelligence when you ask for help.

SACRED FOOL

The fool is a great rebel, able to thwart convention and tell the truth without restraint.  Your heart is a wonderful, powerful, sacred fool!  It cares not for the right way to do things.  It cares not for what the mind says is real and not real.  It lives according to an inner wisdom that cannot be dictated to or controlled by anything.  It loves, it lives and it is what is!

It’s time to take your offer to the world.  Don’t try to be appropriate, don’t try to be socially acceptable and worry about what others may think – just be.  If you want to wear a mad hat whilst doing so, fine.

It’s time to leave behind what has been because it no longer feels right to stay attached to it.  Your mind is a monkey puppet on strings.  More often than not, it is cajoled into fear when it could be playfully dwelling in the radical spontaneity of life.  So, the sacred fool in you urges your mind to let itself be pulled into joy by your heart strings not into fear and doubt by media or anything else.  It’s time for you to play.

It’s time for you to let life happen in a completely unreserved, unscripted way.  Life wants to operate more radically through you so that you become the conduit through which miracles and crazy wild synchronicity can occur.  If you find yourself making choices that have others questioning your sanity, then you are right on course.  You are just approaching enlightened awareness.  There is a moment – sometimes a rather long one – when we wake up to life, shed our attachment to mass opinion and float in a completely different state of being.  Stay on your path, stay on the journey, remember to take nothing too seriously and it will all work out perfectly.

Wishing you an incredible week filled with Peace, Hope, Ease and Effortlessness.  Wear your Poppy loud and proud and please take time on Remembrance Day to send thanks, remember, and commit to being the Peace, Love and Hope that you would like to see in this world.  Take great care, bundle up warm and see you next week!

Holy Hannah it’s almost New Moon and Equinox! Weekly Reading September 18th.

Happy Monday, happy new week, happy nearly New Moon and Equinox!  (Happy glorious day to you delicious lovely!)  How are you?  Did you take some time in the last week to rest, relax and play?  I pushed it a bit too hard over the last few weeks with work, staining, staining and more staining (I think there should be a staining recovery group) and my body finally said – meh, this is not fun and so we are going to hand you a lovely little virus that is going to make you feel like shit, slow down and sleep.  Bugger!  I am a very grumpy sick person to be honest, however, I have paid attention and took the weekend to read, sleep, eat soup, sleep and read.  Although I did push a tad and insisted on building a gorgeous arbour header, stained and mounted it on Saturday, which I am very happy I did.  Every time I look at it now I smile.  Why?  Because it is beautifully shaped and it has all the phases of the moon carved and cut out of it and that resonates for me. So once I had finished that I donned a big sweater, made a cuppa tea and curled up in a big garden chair and read my book and watched the chickadees attack the sunflower heads with vigour.  

We head into birthday season tomorrow (note I said season), as there are 3 of us in September, 3 of us in October, 3 of us in November and 1 in December!  Can you say – ribbon by the largest spool possible?  It’s my son Ry’s birthday on Wednesday which is also the New Moon and mine on Friday (the Equinox), so we are going to have a joint celebration of birthdays and Equinox!  Whoot!  Whoot!  Ry very kindly gifted me as my birthday present the new book from Brene Brown called “Braving the Wilderness”, it just came out on Tuesday and if you haven’t got it – go get it!.  I was reading it this past weekend and wow, she blew it out of the park again.  It’s about the quest for true belonging and the courage to stand alone.  As Brene says – true belonging is not about fitting in, pretending, or making the people around us comfortable because that’s safer.  

I don’t know about you but there have been times in my past where I was most certainly a chameleon and tried to ensure others were comfortable even though I most certainly wasn’t.  Not a great way to spend one’s time that’s for sure.  So it was interesting to see which deck wanted to come play this week, I most certainly thought it would be the Divine Circus however, it is one of my other new decks, The Isis Oracle and it’s very appropriate actually as it addresses the fact that you are a powerful soul who is awakening.  The crystals that wanted to come play are Amethyst, Smoky Quartz and Rose Quartz and of course Selenite as an amplifier.

With all that being said I invite you to take a moment and just settle into your body.  Feel your feet on the earth (give your toes a little wiggle even if they are in shoes), lengthen your spine and roll your shoulders up, back and down.  Breathe gently in through your nose and sigh it out through your mouth.  Give your shoulders another roll up back and down and when you feel ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.  Trust yourself.

Have you picked?  

Shall we go see who wants to work with you this week?

INITIATION

When you are being spiritually initiated into the mysteries of light, love and power, there are moments of deep challenge.  The key is to find the light within the challenge – the learning, growth or wisdom that can be summoned to turn the challenge into an opportunity for healing.  Initiation will occur at various stages.  Sometimes your entire life will feel like an initiation, at other times specific areas will be flowing easily whilst others re deeply challenging.  Please know you are not needlessly suffering.  If you can find the light within the struggles, tests or challenges that face you now, you will experience breakthrough healing.  

As an Initiate, honour life as a gift and treat any challenge or pressure as a way for you to grow into a brighter and purer light capable of great spiritual service on this planet.  That spiritual service includes growing an ability to be able to love freely and beyond limits, to love with courage and faith.  

In fact initiation for you now, dear one, is an opening to new levels of power and peace, self-possession and love.  There are such sweet fruits waiting for you at the top of the tree you are currently climbing.  It may seem as though you are in barren land at times with little hope, nourishment or encouragement, yet your spiritual oasis is not far away!  The Lady Isis and the Power of Ra together are helping you grow.  Stay focused on the Lady and Her love for you and you shall pass through the desert of the Initiation unharmed and deeply transformed.  

MAGICK AND RITUAL

Effect in the external world can be created through inner practice.  Magick and Ritual can support your Divine Path now in the physical world and you are encouraged to enhance your power with regular practice.  The results that you experience will encourage you to continue with the practice as you grow in power, grace, love, ability and wisdom, and apply your inner beauty to transform your outer world.  

For us to grow empowered and potent we need to honour our knowing and being and cultivate sacred practice.  Sacred practice becomes the habit of growing our spiritual power and consciousness.  Like a garden needing regular care and watering to blossom and flourish, our inner garden of the Soul, where our creativity, joy, spiritual gifts and bliss bubble away, also needs regular attention.  Coming to our practice takes strength and inner will – even though it can feel amazing, we still have to wake up, set aside time and discipline ourselves to show up for our own inner growth.  We will reap the benefits when we do, but we must allow ourselves to fall in love with our practice, to craft something that really speaks to us, so that we want to do it.  The desire and discipline together help us engage with our practice regularly and we can grow so fast it can be quite shocking!

You have great power and wisdom within you, but you need to provide channels for it to flow and be active and empowered in your physical life.  Sacred Practice is such a channel.  Without these channels, the ego is left to create on its own which is not much fun at all!  The ego believes in fear and separation and no matter how much it may want to feel love, bliss, connection, joy and fulfilment, it really cannot do it without your spiritual presence in life.  Choose what feels good for you and experiment with what might be a regular pattern of practice for you.  You are worth the effort!  Remember, whatever effort you do put in will be repaid to you in wonderful benefits many, many times over!

FLOWER OF LIFE

You are entering a fertile period of your life.  Focus on your innate creativity and how potent this is becoming, and watch it rapidly grow!  You are guided to think of yourself as a creative being and to surrender your control over how things will manifest and instead allow them to do so.  Don’t resist change, instead flow and let it happen.  Now is the time for your blossoming.  Your Soul is hungering for creativity and manifestation of the beauty in your inner world, to witness it and live it in your physical world too.  Much of your spiritual energy is directed into creative process and your creative powers are growing fast now.  As you are gaining more potency in your creative flow, it is important that you use this growing ability wisely.  Become aware of how easy and quick your thoughts and feelings are manifesting into conversations, situations and responses from the Universe.  Notice how quickly your prayers are confirmed through sign and dreams, intuitions and opportunities opening up for you.  You are becoming more and more swiftly that which you choose to think, feel, speak and believe.  

Align yourself with love each morning so that your thoughts will serve you well and the manifestations you set in motion will be ones that enhance your life experience, rather than more of what you do not want to experience!  It can require time, habit and consistency to change patterns of thought and behaviour but it can be done.  You are guided now to allow yourself absolute and radical permission to detach from past thoughts and behaviours, to bear the challenge of not knowing who you are or how you will be on the “other side” of the transformation, in order to let it happen.

The Flower of Life contains repetitive patterns, each interlacing and inter-relating to the other.  In this way, all that is required is to tap into one part, one element, one thought or one behaviour that relates to your desired creative outcome – and integrate it into your life.  All the rest will flow through natural connection.  You are in the midst of a changing pattern and although it might be uncomfortable at first, it holds the seeds of what you desire and to allow it to happen is wise and loving to the Self.  Be brave, beloved one.  The Flower of Life is nurturing you into a more whole expression of your Divine self.  

Holy Hannah.  Have I said how much I love the cards and how they work?  So we have gone through Initiation, to creating a Sacred Practice to Manifestation.  If you have never seen the image of the Flower of Life, there is a great article here.  I have often used this pattern for crystal gridding and love it.  So delicious lovely have a superb week, remember to plant your seeds with your New Moon wishes and if you are on the wonderful email list keep your eyes peeled on the 22nd as my birthday gift to you is a fun ritual for clarity, manifestation and magic on the Equinox.  Remember to breathe, receive and allow and have frigging fun!  See you next week or possibly Friday!  Huge hugs and big love.

Happy Lammas and Weekly Reading July 31st.

Happy delicious Monday and Happy Lammas!!!

Now you may think I meant to say Llamas, but no, no you would be inaccurate.  July 31st – August 2nd is the Festival of Lammas, the very first harvest festival of the year.  If you want to find out more about it, and a delicious abundance ritual you can do to mark this time, I have you all covered, right here.

How has your week been?  Here we are still experiencing an unrelenting heat wave with no break in sight.  Part of me wants to bitch and complain and then part of me reminds the other part of me about the snow and dark of winter.  (Thus, I only have a little bitch).  A friend of mine and I co-created a surprise birthday party for another friend on the weekend and it was amazing and glorious fun.  Lots of people old friends, and new friends, all ages between 8 – 70, dogs, cats and amazing appies, along with exceptional music, dancing and great conversation.  It was pure delight.  How to tell you have thrown a good party?  It’s 3am and people are just leaving as the mood, the conversation and the ambience were spot on.  Ladybug balloons hanging from the under canopy of glorious maple trees, candles everywhere and dancing on the grass.  Ahhhhh.  So lovely.

So as I sat in my garden on Sunday reflecting on the fun gathering of the night before I had an overwhelming sense of contentment (albeit sleepy contentment).  A sense of connection, a sense of all being right with the world at that moment and as I opened my eyes to look around I realised that my garden had become a Van Gogh painting.  There were sunflowers everywhere, all different colours, shapes and sizes.  Everything from a little one that is only 6” tall to one that is towering at 12 feet.  The sunflowers were mingled in with the heritage tomatoes, overshadowing the roses, popping up next to the pole beans and peeking out from everywhere.  What made this even more glorious is that sunflowers are one of the symbols of Lammas!  So there was that lovely chunk of time where I was able to recognise, embrace and surrender to contentment, joy and peace of the moment and let all little niggly worries and thoughts such as – I should weed the garden, isn’t there a load of laundry I should do, slide off like water drops on a nasturtium leaf!  

So with that energy in mind the glorious Wild Kuan Yin deck threw itself at me for this weeks reading and the large crystals of Rose Quartz, Crystal Quartz and Stilbite.  Oh yes and Nasturtium flowers (none were harmed needlessly, as once the reading was done they hopped into a yummy salad).  So yes, the reading was done outside, amidst the grass whilst listening to the crows chortle and watching the sunflowers as they bobbed.

So take a moment, just breathe, just BE, just tap into your glorious essence and relax.  Breathe, trust, receive.  When you are ready pick a card or cards that call to you and know this is the message you are meant to here at this moment in time.  

Ready to go have a gander?

HARVEST MOTHER WATCHES OVER ME

I watch over you whilst you gaze within, for the time has come when you are best to gather your energy and direct it to your inner world.  So much has been happening around you and within you.  So much, that it needs time and attention to now be distilled, integrated and digested.  It will bring you greater peace and a sense of completion to do this now.  It is time to harvest your emotional world to be ready to gain the rich wisdom of your experiences.  Then you shall be ready for us to begin again, for another chapter in your life journey – wiser, stronger and ready – together.  

There has been so much happening in your outer world and even in your inner world, so much awakening, so much experience, that it needs to be processed, sorted through and released into some sort of useful content.  If you do not do this you will feel a sort of uncomfortable fullness within, a sense of not being able to move forwards in life as freely as you would like.  It may feel as though you need to empty out, create some space and find resolution within before you feel ready to take in more of what life has to offer.  If such a natural process is not allowed, you will be pushing yourself towards overwhelm, fatigue, confusion and depression.  It is safe and timely now for you to declutter your world, especially your internal world – although clearing out something of your physical world may be a way to enhance the process.  

This is a time of great abundance, of hidden gifts becoming apparent and being received if you are willing to create some space.  This is not a time to keep going with momentum or pursuing something simply out of habit.  There is rich, growth-fuelling divine substance within our reach, and to receive that nectar of life you need to change pace.  So whether it is journalling, closing your eyes and dancing in your living room, meditation or to relax and do nothing you are being advised to slow down and take some time for you.

BLESSING OF THE KHATA BESTOWED

In your heart a desire for union grows, an impulse to move deeper into love’s embrace.  As you open your heart, I pour forth my healing balm and my blessing.  It is never too late for love.  It is never too late for joy.  It is never too late for connection.  As my blessings vests in your heart, a path will open up for you, leading you into love’s expansive landscape.  You too shall be as enchanted in love as I am, cherished and adored, surrender in love.  Love’s blessing and presence finds you now.  You are worthy of such blessing and shall be safe in the joy of its embrace.

In the Tibetan tradition, the white silk scarf, known as the khata, is a positive symbol that augurs new relationships with blessings for good fortune  It is a symbol of devotion, and is also a visual reminder of divine blessing granted for a successful transition into a new chapter of your life in whatever way that manifests, including through a new or deepened relationship.   This is your khata from the Divine Mother, Kuan Yin.  It is her acknowledgment of good intention and goodwill, of divine presence in new relationships, and is an auspicious gift for new beginnings.  These blessings are very special and this oracle is a vessel carrying that blessing to you now.  

To receive the blessing of the khata as fully as possible, intend to open your heart and allow love to have its way.  This may mean that some relationships, unable to be healed at this time for whatever reason, need to be released.  This is so you can grow and open your heart more freely to those able to love you the way you wish to be loved, to those able to receive your love the way you are able to give.  Remain open to love’s will, whether you understand it or not, which you can do by centering yourself in your heart.  Let your feelings guide you and trust in whatever is happening now in relationships or the new beginnings in your life.  You are not required to do anything except receive the Divine Mother’s love.  

SHE TAMES BY LAYING DOWN THE STAFF AND ROPE

My ways prevail.  I subjugate the lower to the higher without any force.  Through my ways, correct alignment to the higher divine order is established.  My authority is supreme, yet I’ve no need to enforce it.  Devotion to me is absolute, yet I bestow freedom.  I show you now , the whispering way to tame great force.  I initiate you into the way of strength without coercion, the way of attraction without demand.  Follow me and learn the art of feminine power; that fear shall always succumb to love.

There is something that you want to attain.  A situation exists that you would like to change.  It may be something in your way of thinking or being, or a habit of body or mind.  It may be a pattern within your emotional world, or an actual physical situation or obstacle you wish to changes.  Perhaps you want it transformed completely, or perhaps you simply want some of the rough edges smoothed.  No matter whether it is a small or large change that is desired, you have been attempting to bring it about through exertion of your will.  Now there is a time and place for such approaches.  Yet there is another way, a gentler and more peaceful way, that will evoke little resistance within you and help you attract what you want rather than to have to carve it out of your own blood, sweat and tears.  This is the taming power, the magnetic lure of attraction that can tame even beyond the capacity of will.  

You must be willing to become empty in order to be filled.  You must be willing to accept the very thing you wish to be transformed.  You must be willing to become flexible in order to stay true on the path.  You must be willing to become childlike in order to be wise.  It is in embracing what is that empowers you to transform it.  You can, of course, choose the other way; to pursue, push and direct.  However, you will find it an uphill battle all the way and it will only get you so far.  This way hold more finesse, attains a greater result and will lead you further along your spiritual path as you learn that the opposites are only an appearance of reality, no reality itself.  What you want is possible.  

Okay, I know I have said this before, but I am saying it again.  I love how the cards unfold.  Go in and create space, open to love (and see the khata of which I have one from Nepal), and then use that love to stop pushing and create a different way of being.  Awesome sauce!  I hope you enjoyed, and as next Monday is BC day (thus a long weekend here), it’s time to go play outdoors and relax, paddle and just BE.  So I will see you the Monday following.  Wishing you a glorious week, if you do the Lammas abundance ritual let me know!  I most certainly will be.  Huge hugs!

Pre Scorpio Full Moon and Weekly Reading for May 8th!

Happy, happy, happy glorious Monday delicious lovely!  How are you?  How has your week been?  Mine has been an interesting week of feeling feelings deeply and introspection.  My eldest male child moved last Monday, and as much as I am aware this is what one’s kids are meant to do, I still cried lots and my heart was sore as he is such a delight to be around.  But, I know this is part of his journey and it is also part of my path to gently release these gorgeous beings out into the world.  But holy hannah!  I would like to say, that prior to giving birth the Universe should hand you a manual as to what you are going to learn with your kids and how your lives are entwined and then – poof!  Off they go.  

So that scenario caused lots of feelings to flood up, lots of tears and lots of looking at change.  Shortly after – Joy of Joys, I lost my voice and came down with some lovely bug!  Have to say that causes great introspection when you realise that you can’t speak up and say what you need to, or ask for what you want (it also causes bank tellers to look at you very strangely when you are leaning in whispering at them!)  So it has been a most interesting week, thank goodness it is a glorious Scorpio Full Moon on Wednesday which is a great time to look at where your focus has been, having you been living out of Joy or Fear etc and then release that shit!

The cards that desperately wanted to come play with us this week are the wonderful Wild Kuan Yin Oracle.  This deck is fabulous for those of us wild ones, those with a spirit that longs to be free and a heart that must love with great passion – those who yearn to bring beautiful visions to life. Which is you my delicious lovely!  The crystals that literally popped out of their basket are Rose Quartz, Amethyst and a gorgeous Clear Crystal Geode.  So all crystals pertaining to love, clarity, strength etc.  

With all that being said, let’s go see who wants to come work with you this week.  Take a glorious deep breath in and drop into your belly.  Breathe long and slow and invite your inner willingness, your inner knowing to come guide and play with you.  There is a soothing visualisation should you feel so inclined, where we go for an explore in your Abundance Jungle.

Trust yourself, breathe and pick the card or cards that are calling to you this week.

HER JOY RENDERS THE IMPOSSIBLE TASK POSSIBLE

There is something you are meant to do.  You’ve been growing towards it your entire life.  All your life circumstances, lessons and situations have been teaching you valuable skills and wisdom so that you are equipped for the tasks demanded by your divine destiny.  You may know clearly what those tasks are, or they may as yet be a mystery to you.  You may not be a big picture person, preferring to focus simply on accomplishing the many smaller tasks before you each day.  However, all those smaller tasks have prepared you for a bigger journey of passion and purpose.

For you to take this next step, whether it feels like the leap that will launch your destiny into an entirely new level of manifestation, or whether it just feels like the next step on your journey, you are being guided.  You must let go of doubt, fear, hesitation, judgement and control.  Now that is no small task!  You must allow Joy to be your safety net, your attitude, the feeling by which you are guided and the basis for your decisions.  Bliss, happiness, joy – these are high frequency, high states of being which cannot be contrived and yet, are not dependent on our life circumstances.  To learn to feel joy in our hearts, without having to have a particular reason for it, is the beginning of access to great spiritual power.  Come into your heart and in that journey, we discover a kind of freedom of spirit, a place within where joy can happen; spontaneous and unbridled.  

You are being called to that place.  It is simple but profoundly high in frequency.  The Divine can work very easily with a human being in that state because nothing is resisted.  There is no coaxing or cajoling, analysis or procrastination, over-thinking or fearful acting out that drains energy and slows down the manifestation process.  There is just presence, and life can happen with utter immediacy.  There is nothing that is impossible.  Approach your decisions from a place of joy.  Remain open in your heart and mind, and the Divine Mother shall orchestrate this offering according to the perfection of her joyful grace.  Trust, play and reach for Joy!

SURRENDER SENSITIVE SISTER, BE MOVED BY THE MOON

You know what you know.  Even when you don’t know how you know!  I speak to you through that knowing.  The intuition that is beyond logic.  The feeling that has no physical proof as yet.  The instinct to keep going, to trust yourself and take the journey before you.  Be open and truthful with all that you feel and resist nothing.  It shall then simply flow, changing like the phases of the moon, naturally and without effort on your part.  

Something is happening.  You cannot see it, but in your most sensitive and responsive moments you feel it.  You are asked to explore your particular way of sensing energy.  Don’t discount what you feel.  Recognise, honour and be moved by it.  You are gifted with an ability to feel what is before the conscious mind of others recognise it – a gift for perceiving what is going to be because you feel it in your bones.  It matters not whether another sees or feels as you do.  You are meant to be moved by the moon.  It is part of your nature.  Don’t try to toughen up or protect yourself, or become less sensitive, less emotionally-attuned or less moved by energy and feeling.  This can become your greatest asset, a source of wisdom, truth and even strength.  Do not be hesitant to embrace your gifts.  You shall find a way to work with them so you are not compromised or depleted.  

If you have been feeling something – a choice, a need to express a feeling, the need to pursue a course of action – that seems entirely at odds with your rational mind – trust in and explore the impulses from within.  Always call on the guidance that loves you unconditionally and then follow your feelings as they guide you along your divine life path with intelligent grace.  

GRANDMOTHER DRAGONFLY HOLDS THE WISDOM

Sometimes there is benefit in focusing on the new, seeking out untried paths, developing untapped resources and exploring possibilities.  The intoxication of hope, inspiration and optimism combined can be hard to resist.  However, if fear, boredom or lack of commitment is beneath the quest for new adventures, if we are believing that what we need or want is always just beyond, we may be dissuaded from applying ourselves to the worth tasks before us right now.  If we are an imaginative and visionary type of personality, we may rebel against the mundane tasks of applying ourselves daily to bring an idea to life.  However, if we were to stop and look clearly at what we already have in our lives, we could realise that there is much of value waiting to be put to use.

Do not step away from what you are cultivating, even if it seems to have lost its steam, run out of energy or be utterly dead in the water!  There is something within what you have been working on that is going to yield something of great benefit.  There will be much more success, prosperity, happiness and maturing of your ultimate life goals and journey in tending to what is already further along in development than in something new. Grandmother Dragonfly offers you vision that is wide and unlimited by preconceptions.  

You may need to look differently at what you have nurtured and how to tap into what it has become to be able to share it with others and allow its sustaining grace to nourish human life in its own way. You will help people in many and varied ways.  It is all a part of your  natural development and you can trust in it.  There is no need for you to ever be impatient or doubting of this.

Wishing you a fantabulous week filled with the willingness to tap into Joy and look at things through a Love Lens (as I say).  May there be peace and love in your heart, a jungle of abundance that you can drop into any time you like – and of course, huge, huge big belly laughs!  (Totally kicks up the Joy meter and is also a fun workout for your core!)
