Two Steps Forward ,One Step Back and how to play with Via Transformativa!

Happy Marvelous, Magnificent, Magnanimous, Magickal, Mysterious, Manifesting, Miraculous Monday! How are you most delicious lovely? If you were in the States did you have a wonderful long weekend? I hope you took time to play, relax and just BE!

With July upon us the energy has shifted and guess what theme we are working with this month? Go on, have a guess………

TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACK! (Doesn’t that sound like glorious fun?) Lol.

As Lena shares:- “You may have a negative reaction to this theme, but actually two steps forward and one step back is exactly where we need to be right now. With new energy, enthusiasm and inspiration coming in, we are all champing at the bit to get going, get moving, and get productive. However, with every push forward, there is a need to look back at what needs to happen first. Whether it is a final forgiveness, a necessary emotional clearing, a completion of a karma, some physical detox, the release of a relationship or other attachment, or simply just a need to take a second look at some plan before leaping into it, the step back is a necessary reflection to ensure the movement forward is truly aligned, balanced and something we want.

There is always great resistance to the step back as it feels like being held back against our will. The challenging obstacles that are up this month are Martyrdom (feeling victimized by the step back) and Impatience (the fear that the step back is losing us precious time and opportunity). Usually people fall into one or the other and many of you will experience both. We are also dealing with a bit of stubbornness as a resistance to letting go and embracing change.

Remember that with Martyrdom, there is always a choice and the choice this month should be to use the step back in a productive and proactive way. “

So how are you going to do that?

I have had a myriad of conversations over the last couple of weeks with friends, clients, colleagues who are all feeling this energy and some are rather aggravated and others are a tad befuddled and confused, and then there are some who are really relaxing back into it and using it to their advantage.

Personally, I have felt a burbling for the last 2 months or so now of huge change and transformation, so I have been tapping into the inspiration, creating shifts in my time so that I can listen clearly to it and act on it. Whilst also using the step back energy to clear my space both physically (I literally have hardly any clothes left now and my cutlery drawer is immaculate!) To energetically tidying up energy drains, setting clear boundaries and taking my days off to do what I’m meant to do – which is play! Which in turn enhances my intuition and creativity which feeds the transformation. So it all is like a delicious Infinity symbol that nourishes and works.

Over in Creatrix Circle we have been exploring over the year Via Negativa, the path to Spirit through darkness, suffering, and the void. Via Positiva, the path to Goddess through light, dance and joy. Via Creativa, the way of co-creation and giving birth. And we are now working with the final path to Goddess is the Via Transformativa, the way of transformation.

We are transformed, and that leads us to transform the world. The Via Transformativa is also a celebration of the other three paths’ culmination.

We are brought to our knees in celebration of the beautiful earth – of Soil, Soul, and Society – and we are called to give back. We are called to join “the dance of all creation in the quest for balance.”

What is transforming you – what has broken your heart, cracked it wide open, and called to you for change? How can you help transform it?

Thus, for this month I invite you to really take a delicious dive into the Via Transformativa energy and meld it with the Two Steps Forward, One Step Back. Using the time and space to transform so that you can step forward with alignment and authenticity.

Think of the pieces that would make up your own Infinity symbol.

Okay – now let’s crack on with the reading. When I sat with all my lovely decks and asked who felt a strong urge to come support and guide us this week The Oracle of Shadows & Light were most adamant that they needed to be front and center.

Now, if these guides are new to you, let me briefly introduce you:- “Bittersweet, Unheard, Unconventional, Rebellious, Cheeky, Whimsical, Invisible….. They’re not words you often hear associated with the spiritual world, are they? Nevertheless, some of the most spiritual beings who have ever lived are those who have been most at odds with what we call the mainstream. They do not fit in. They have had moments of despair. And they know being truthful, and being real, is one of the greatest strengths and spiritual paths of all! They ask you to step out from the shadows, to no longer hide your light away, and come and consult with guides who acknowledge your individuality and strange genius!”

How perfect are they for this time? Whoot!!!!!

So delicious lovely, take a moment. Just wiggle your fingers and toes and breathe into all the corners, pockets and creases in your body. Allow yourself to breathe into the step back, the place of aligned transformation. Breathe this in and as you exhale through an open mouth let go of anything that is keeping you tight and tense. Allow your mind to calm and when you are ready ask the guides who want to come support you this week, then pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to go see?

TWO LITTLE WITCHES

From out of the shadows come the Two Little Witches, solemn and sincere. They fix you with their clear green and blue gaze, and ready you for the magick that is the broom they are about to pass on to you! And what is the magickal secret of this broom?

Why, that it can sweep clear any old, stale energy that is lurking about you at the moment.

Take this broom and see it whisk all by itself once, twice, three times, widdershins around your house, your hearth, your home, and it will clear out all that is hiding in the shadows of the corners and the underneath of the rooms of your soul and home!

Widdershins is the traditional direction for clearing energy. It means against the sun, and in the northern hemisphere, to go widdershins is to direct energy in a counterclockwise direction. In the southern hemisphere, it is to direct energy clockwise.

When it is doen, they clap their hands three times, and the broom returns to their arms, and they move on to the next home that needs their help.

But now that is done, what will you fill your space and your life with? That is the greatest, and tricksiest, choice of all, but one which only you can make!

So go move the furniture and clear away what you no longer need. Whenever we make a change, we always rediscover stuff we’ve been hanging on to. Stuff that weighs us down, without even realising it was there. Time for a space clear for you!

WITCH AT THE END OF THE WORLD

Storms fly about her, electrical whips crack through the heavy air with their bites of fire, and she sits among them, hugging her hourglass, holding everything together till the force creating the change has done its work. When the Witch at the End of the World makes her appearance to you, you will know that something’s time has come. There can be no more delaying, for the change has begun. So the best thing for you to do now is prepare for this change. Find solutions to challenges that will come up when the change comes. You will be fine, by the way, and all will be well, but there will be a time of seeming chaos and difficulty. If you are prepared, and ready to let go and change, and let something end, the little witch’s countdown will not affect you as it will affect others who refuse to acknowledge that changes are coming and become fearful at their inevitable approach. There is nothing to fear, but plenty to prepare for. You will be safe, and well, and very ready to embrace the new world.

I am not wicked, but I am a witch, and changes are made when the world bends and shifts. I hold this hourglass up to you now so you know that the time for an ending is almost upon us. You can see the signs all about you – the strange weather, the hurricanes, the cyclones, the earth changes all about us – but so many simply say I am wicked for showing you this. They blame me for what they call the catastrophes, and they ignore the signs. They are with you, and it is time to be ready. We are all about to experience a huge change – and it will be for the better. But while we hold on to the old, the storms will blast us, and the land will shift, and self-healing will look like destruction.

There is nothing to be frightened of; only a voyage to weather, and you’ll make it through to the other side of the storm. The changes are part of our journey to a fifth-dimensional world, of the shift to a more peaceful planet, where shadows and light are loved and accepted. All is well.

CANDY CANE ANGEL

The Candy Cane Angel is in charge of letting you know when it is time for some little luxuries that will reconnect you with your self-love and self-worth. She, too, holds back from giving to herself, as she is such an earnest and industrious little angel – but her message is always clear; it is time for some fun!

As she says clearly to you “You know what my problem is? And you know what your problem is? No? Well, let me tell you. Our problem is that we both feel guilty about giving ourselves pleasure. See this little treat in my hands? It’s not bad, is it? It’s not evil, is it? But can I bring myself to just sit down and taste every moment of its sugary sweet delights? No. I have to wonder if it’s the right time. If I have done enough to earn this treat. To wonder why I should get this when so many do not have a single candy cane for their own selves! I torment myself with these things – and so do you! How about we make a deal? Next time you ponder a gift to yourself: a massage, a treat, a spiritual workshop, a delicious meal, time to laugh with a friend, a long rest or nap, meditation time, a space clear…..know that when you energetically tell yourself “I am way too busy for that indulgence,” you are really saying, ‘I do not deserve that!’ Well, let’s decide that you do! I am about to have my treat. I now charge you with the same quest. Give yourself that which you have been denying yourself. You do deserve it!”

Do not rationalise or talk yourself out of it any longer. Step out of the consciousness of lack and into the consciousness of “I deserve,” and grant yourself this lovely moment of luxury. It’s time for some joie de vivre and enjoyment to restage a grand entrance into your life!

I love how that reading unfolded! So sweetpea, play with the energies of Via Transformativa – ask yourself what or how you want to transform. Then use the step back energy to tidy up the loose ends, clear away the stagnant energy and align. Then watch Magick happen! Whoot! Have a fabulous week and remember to play, be gentle with yourself and most of all laugh! Big hugs.

When the heat cranks, Divisiveness comes into play! So where do you find a sense of peace?

Jenny Heston · 4:37 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Melting, Magnificent, Melodic Monday! The last Monday of June (can you believe it?) So let me ask a super boring question – what’s your weather like? (See I told you it would be boring).

Here we are in the midst of an unprecedented heat wave – I mean it’s frigging hot with temperatures we don’t normally see here, such as 41C! Which totally ties in with what Lena shared about the Shamanic monthly energy for June as Shake Up being internally, externally and mumma nature flexing her energy as well.

I will be honest, as a ginger I don’t do super well in extreme heat to say the least, I’m more like a wilting flower that looks to hide in dark cool places. However, it has been fascinating to watch and just observe people around me as I move through my day. A lot of anger flaring, tempers are short and words are flying left, right and centre. It’s as if with the external heat being increased, the internal heat has been cranked up and people are pissed. I had a client who is the most gentle, kind, sweet person stating very clearly how she just wanted to “throat punch” people! I get it, lol.

There’s a lot of anger swirling around and heightened energies that are in play, which in turn are really exacerbating that sense of divisiveness I’ve been witnessing, for the last few months.

Now what do I mean by divisiveness? The separation mentality. The Us vs Them mentality. The sense of I’m right – You’re wrong kind of thing.

So for example. With the heat I try to get out the door as the sun is rising (because seriously by 7am it’s already 28C). I take Danu down to one of the beaches so she can cool her paws and walk in the water. So yesterday, at about 8am I took her to a local rocky beach and had 2 different people screaming at me about having a dog there. Hmmm, tricky as it’s a beach that allows dogs.

Their level of anger as they sat sweating on the driftwood shouting at me and trying to make me “wrong” (whilst they were dumping their food garbage all around them was so intense I had to laugh. Seriously?

But this sense of entitlement, there being only one way to do things and good/bad energy seems to be pervading all different types of arenas and I find it so sad.

When Covid first hit 16 months ago and the world went into a tailspin one of the side effects that came into play was people realising that community, humans, helping each other was important. That we were all connected, no matter where we lived and that we were all in this together. I was soooo delighted and thought to myself – Yes! Yes! Change is happening, the reset button has been pushed and we will create a better global community.

Then the vaccine was introduced and all of a sudden it created that rift again, that split, that separation. As I don’t know about you but one of the first questions anyone seems to ask these days is “Have you got the vaccine? Which one did you get?” Goddess forbid you say you are choosing not to, or you haven’t got it yet.

The other morning I was standing in a line up for the local market and there was a woman ahead of me with no mask on and she turned to the person behind her “I’m not wearing a mask as I’ve had two doses of the vaccine, which one did you get? This poor person looked a tad stunned and advised the woman “Actually, I’m not sure I’m going to get it.” (Bold on her part). Then all hell broke loose. The maskless woman went into a tirade about how irresponsible she was, that it was her duty and on, and on. Basically implying she was wrong, less than and obviously selfish and stupid. Wow! Divisiveness in play. Us vs Them.

I appreciate with Solstice we entered the energy of Fire, the intense energy and very masculine energy. Throw on top of it the outrageous heat and all the rest of it, but do we really need to revert back to how the world was? As in my humble opinion, it didn’t seem to work so well.

So how do you find peace when it feels like the world is a tad off kilter, and the energies are very aggressive?

For me I have been making sure that daily I ground and center myself (sometimes multiple times a day). I go places that nourish me and are cooling (the woods has been a lovely one over the last few weeks), and I surround myself with music that soothes, sounds that soothe, colours that soothe (so no, I haven’t been wearing a lot of red and orange at the moment!)

I’m also sensitive about what I allow in in the way of news, information, conversations etc. So for example I have been listening to “Outrageous Openness” by Tosha Silver on repeat. As the message is very clear – we are all part of the whole. We are all connected, we are all little sparks of the Divine and not better than, less than any other little spark.

And last but not least I send Blessings galore to any fractious situation, person, place or thing that I encounter. (Don’t get me wrong, it may take me an hour or so to come to that place lol, as I’m still human!) Oh yes, and daily epsom salt scrub showers (cold at the moment).

So I highly encourage you to do things that nourish you on every level, and if necessary stay the heck away from people who are caught up in their entitled, anger driven state of mind.

Okay, I have chuntered a ton (not a surprise), so let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide this week, the glorious Faery Forest Oracle were adamant, which made me smile a lot. If this deck is new to you please let me introduce your guides (as that is always polite). “Let us enter the wild green world together, friend, the faery forests where the great trees speak with us, the moss soft underfoot, the light pure and gentle. The homes of the once Sacred groves of the Celts, the Saxons, and the Vikings…and to the people who were here long before we had names with which to call them to us – the faerie people. May the wild green world and the wondrous beings of this Faery Forest heal us, inspire us and urge us all to become more who we truly are meant to be.”

Okay delicious lovely, let’s ground and centre. Come back to your body (it’s safe) and allow your breath to soften and slow. See a delicious cooling pool in your mind’s eye. A pool of calm, cool, still water – inviting and deep. Allow your hand to trail through it, cooling your fingertips and then place them on the back of your neck. If you want a bit more extra support there is a lovely guided visualisation for you. Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that caress your soft soul energy.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look.

THE ANCIENT

The Ancient is so old she is almost beyond time. She is able to speak the truth without compromise – as are you. She is so old, has experienced so much, learned and taught so many lessons, that she has become powerful and influential, just as you are becoming, too. So too are you growing older, coming into wisdom. She knows that while others are now going to come to you for advice and guidance, she sees your humanity – your faults and your flaws and your feelings of unworthiness. She wishes to reassure you.

Others will come to you, seeking knowledge, awaiting a blessing, an initiation, and oblivious to the consequences of the path they wish to walk. Wisdom, true wisdom, understands complexity, and you have developed this quality. The Ancient is honourable and human, and yet more than human, and she is courageous and has made sacrifices – as have you. She sees straight through comforting illusions – as do you.

She represents ancient tradition and the challenge of defining the self, yet remaining with a tradition that you value – and this too is one of your challenges. So take responsibility in your life. You will face the battle of choice, and you will be the antidote to gurus and dominant personalities who claim to have all the answers. The Ancient recognises the challenge of being a teacher. This immersion in a world to learn the ancient arts and venerate wisdom and old ways can be expressed in many forms, but everything you are now learning has value. She is the repository for ancient secrets and the contact between worlds. She is wise – and she has learned to consider every word that falls from her lips, even as she longs to call out for freedom.

ISA

Winter has descended upon the Faery Forest. You have ceased struggling and fighting to change what is outside of yourself. Because you have relinquished the battle, you have won the war within yourself. You are now suspending activity and being in the moment. Through this stillness and inner consciousness, you are beginning to understand so much of where you have been and where you will go – and because you are fully in the present and allowing, you can also come to a deeper, more peaceful understanding of what it is you want, value, and desire.

This is a moment of complete stillness and simply be-ing: a long moment where you are completely present. You are as still as a chrysalis, hanging seemingly static from a branch, fragile and mysterious. Like the chrysalis, you will “do” nothing – nothing at all, except become yourself. Your transformation is being worked invisibly, on the inside, and when the time is right, you will share it with the world.

In a situation where you seem to have no control, no power, you are learning the most valuable form of power there is – self mastery. You pause with dignity and strength, and simply by doing this you create the right conditions for the right change.

This time will ultimately bring great peace, wisdom, and choices that enrich your life, others lives, and the healing of the world.

THE WILD HUNT

There is, for all of us, a moment when excitement and nerves fuse, when we prepare to journey and do something we have anticipated for a long time. In the faery realm, this sensation is created by adventure known as the Wild Hunt. This is a gathering which takes place not only within the realm of faery, it is one where the faery king and queen lead faery hounds and faery horses on a hunt throughout the countryside, dipping into and out of the faery lands, surfacing in the human worlds from time to time, cleansing toxic energy, allowing natural forces to begin to flow through the cleared energy paths, awakening the wild world to brightest life once again, and leaving a trail of ecstasy and bliss after the frenzied storm of their ride.

The Wild Hunt is fierce, powerful, a little frightening, and thoroughly thrilling – and this faery queen is preparing herself for the joys and challenges of this great springtime event. So too you need to prepare yourself for some chaos – a wild time, when change tears through and upends all the order you have attached yourself to. You may need to pack, travel, find ways to move quickly, stop planning and organising for a moment and just go on an immensely enjoyable ride of your life.

The time coming for you is delirious in its excitement, and you fear this loss of control and order. But truly, it will refresh you, just as it sears the very edges of your nerves! Dress up, show up, and prepare to be amazed! Take a deep breath, find your voice, and begin to cry out at the top of your lungs. You are alive my friend, and will feel so more than ever before when the wild hunt touches your life!

Ah yes! Glorious guides for this fractious energy! Wishing you a stupendous week. There won’t be a reading next week as it is a holiday weekend. Oh yes, and quite a few of you have emailed saying that you missed out on the Solstice reading special, so I have opened up 3 more spots. Stay cool, drink water, do things that soothe and nourish you and remember – you are a glorious spark of the Divine! Big hugs and squeezes!

Solstice, Celebration and Super Full Moon in Capricorn!

Jenny Heston · 11:00 pm ·

Happy Magnetic, Magickal, Miraculous, Marvellous, Manifesting Monday!

How are you? Did you manage to take time to celebrate the Solstice? Here in North America Solstice arrived on Sunday (so if you are in Europe it will be today – Monday!)

I will say my Solstice was amazing! Getting up at 4am to head to the ocean to watch the sun slowly rise up over the horizon and then bask the ocean in liquid gold. Gathering (and pilfering) flowers to make a delicious flower mandala to offer as a blessing to the portal that was created!

Yes, I did say Portal, lol. (You can’t make this shit up!)

In the fairy garden there is a delicious wee portal woven out of ivy. So the other day I was sitting looking at it and thought “Wouldn’t it be cool to have a life sized portal?” (That’s where my mind goes sometimes). So last weekend driftwood galore was gathered in the early hours from the beaches, then a circle was drawn on the lawn and the building began and wow! Wow!

She is stupendous!!! all the pieces of driftwood wended together to create a 6ft Portal that then got set into the bank at the back of the garden where I have carved a trail through the brush up to an amazing little rocky park.

I wove ivy around her (keeping the roots in the ground) and then put tiny fairy lights onto her, and built an incredible rock stairway for her approach. The thing that is amazing is she looks like she grew there. I am chuffed to bits. I wanted her to be ready for Solstice, so a flower mandala was made on her threshold and then a cleansing and blessing spell was set with a very clear intention as to the energy she would hold. Last but not least 2 quartz points, a rose quartz and an amethyst were woven into her “horns”.

The perfect activity for Solstice followed by an outdoor Solstice gathering in the garden filled with great people, great food and ridonculous games (think water gun fights, light up frisbee and Yahtzee!)

The perfect way to mark such an intense Fire Celebration (and I will say I can certainly feel the Yang energy swirling).

Thank you to all the comments and feedback about the Book of Summer Solstice, I’m tickled to hear which rituals you are working with, how you liked the abundance spell and how so many of you have listened over and over to the guided visualisation. That makes my heart soar! And to answer your question – yes you can use this for the week following Solstice as well.

Oh yes, and with regards to the Summer Solstice Reading Special. Yes, I have 10 spots open and available from today until next Monday (June 28th)!

On the heels of the Solstice energy, Thursday we welcome the Super Full Moon in Capricorn.

As Forever shares: “There is a duality to the energies we feel on this June Full Moon. We may not know if we are coming or going or exactly what to feel, or how to progress. That is the nature of this Full Moon. It brings wildcard energy, stirring things until we are unable to see clearly ahead. It does not do this to annoy, but rather to get us to slow down and see things from a different vantage point.

When the dust finally settles and the room stops spinning, we can see where we have landed. We can also see what has been broken during our spin and what has stood the test of time.

Capricorn energy supports us in creating a life with a strong and solid foundation. Capricorn energy naturally nurtures things that are designed to stand the test of time, so we may find ourselves naturally drawn to focus on these aspects of our lives.”

Isn’t this great?

June has the energy of Shake Up, we have the Solstice energy of Lighting Our Inner Fire, and the Super Full Moon asks us to work with all of those and create a life with a strong and solid foundation! I so love how this all weaves together.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to the guides and cards to ask who was willing to support and guide this week – there was no choice whatsoever. Isis Oracle were adamant and if you think about it – that’s no surprise.

Now if you don’t know these amazing guides, please let me introduce you. Have you ever asked who Isis is? Goddess of the Skies, Magick and Wisdom are just a few of the titles she is given. Let me take a moment to introduce you to this lovely deck – “You are a powerful Soul and you are awakening. Your thoughts, feelings and inner world is changing, and so too is your outer world. When a Soul is growing in power and strength, it can benefit from guidance to help make the path into a new way of being in the world that much easier. Isis offers Her wisdom and guidance to you to assist you at this time of spiritual growth and transition. She loves you, and wants you to shine and be your radiant self, filled with power and wisdom.”

Yes!!!!!!! “Shine and be your radiant self, filled with power and wisdom.”

Okay delicious lovely, let’s just settle for a moment shall we? Just breathe yourself back into your body, calling back any pieces that you have left lying around during the day or the week. Breathe long and deep and allow in your mind’s eye the energy of the sun to fill you, to pour liquid gold energy through you – soothing, nourishing and cleansing.

When you feel relaxed and ready, pick the card or cards that whisper to your wise self, your radiant self, your powerful self.

Did you remember to pick?

Come take a look.

DIVINE GUARDIAN

Protection of the Winged Mother

You are venturing through a time of significant spiritual growth and healing. There are many changes occurring internally and they will be reflected in your external world soon also. You are protected during these times by the love and strength of the Winged Mother, Lady Isis. You can relax and allow your transformation to happen. Let your Divine Guardian protect you now, as you learn to let go and trust in your own unfoldent for the greatest good.

Big spiritual growth can bring difficult challenges. Through such challenges, an Initiate can gain wisdom, power and awareness, and leave behind fears that once held them captive, free from past restrictions, free to live a life that is truly extraordinary and inspirational. Yet the challenges can feel deeply confronting. The Initiate may be tested to stay true to their own beliefs even if their loved ones do not understand or support them. Or they may be required to let go of what they have known to embrace something completely unfamiliar and this may be uncomfortable for them, and they may fear losing support, safety or friendship as they venture into a new life.

You have been receiving impressions and inner nudges that are from your higher guidance, which has been helping you with situations that are currently unfolding in your life and will continue to do so. You are, spiritually speaking, on the right track. Life does not have to be fixed or even clear at all times in order for you to be safe. Isis is with you. All is well.

DIVINE SISTERHOOD

Community of the Spiritual Sisters and Brothers of the Light

In community that is based in equality, respect, healthy boundaries and personal freedom, with a mutual desire for spiritual growth and honouring of innate wisdom, great miracles occur. You are part of this community of light. At one time it existed only in the spiritual worlds, yet now it is being born on the Earth. It is part of your destiny to help create and nurture a conscious community that empowers all of its members and is based in truth.

Letting the Divine Feminine nourish you now into new relationships, collaborations, community and friendships is very wise. There are many souls with whom you have spiritual contracts decided upon before you were born who wish to help you, and whom you can help too, as you grow together in peace and light and wisdom. Your light has value on its own of course but it is also of deep service when it is visible to others, lighting the way.

Mother Isis says that there is so much light awakening within our planet, and so much spiritual light gifted to Earth from celestial beings at this time, that it makes sense to build a large enough container to receive it. If you had enough electricity to power a city, you wouldn’t try to fit it in one house. Likewise, with all this spiritual electricity becoming available on the EArth, groups are needed to help it to circulate and flow.

If you accept all of this but still cannot find your spiritual home here, and have been wondering where your community is, you are not alone! They are looking for you too! Say ‘yes’ to opportunities to meet like-minded people and let Isis guide you through circumstances, opportunities and spontaneous moments as you and your beloved sisters and brothers find each other together for group benefit. If you have found that you have guidance to build community yourself, and are feeling a little overwhelmed at the thought, stay calm and stay in your heart.

SPIRIT OF ISIS

Triumph of the Goddess

Beloved Initiate, there are times to surrender and let go, but there are never times to give up! Persist with your bold faith and inspired action until the impossible happens. Isis has the spirit of triumph and will never fail in Her quest no matter how bold or impossible it seems. Believe.

It is helpful on the inner path to let go and detach over and over again and yet we need to stay true to our heart and not give up on what we feel we are here to do. Whether it is reaching for enlightenment, for inner peace, for a creative breakthrough or personal healing, the triumph of the Goddess is with you now urging you not to give up, no matter how far away or impossible success may seem to be. Don’t quit! Persist until the impossible happens!

You are being reminded that you can surrender, let go of attachment as to how everything will happen or what it will look like, even if it is frustrating to surrender the vision into the Divine Fires yet again, waiting until you feel it naturally coming together according to Divine Timing.

The Spirit of Isis is willing to wait until Divine Forces collide and the miracle occurs. Remember, beloved Initiate, that the forces of growth, love and divinity are in your corner. There is nothing more powerful than these. Allow them to have their way and you will have yours. Your win is assured.

Those are some deliciously powerful messages! How did the card you picked resonate for you? Have a stupendous week, delicious lovely. Allow the energy of the sun to ignite your inner fire, use the energy of the Super Full Moon to ground you and most of all have fun! (Life is so much better when we remember to play!) Don’t forget the Solstice reading special runs for a week and the Book of Summer Solstice is still available to you. Big hugs and squeezes and flowers galore!

Summer Solstice is Here and the Book of Summer Solstice is Ready! So let’s open up the Portal!

Jenny Heston · 1:12 am ·

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

Summer Solstice is coming, Summer Solstice is coming! Whoot!

This Sunday, June 20th at 11:53pm PST, is the Summer Solstice and I am so looking forward to celebrating it. Every year has been filled with different ways of celebrating, different rituals and different intentions/offerings and the harvest that I have reaped from these has been mind blowing! (As in, you seriously can’t make this shit up!)

I know I said last week that on Thursday you would receive an update about the Book of Summer Solstice and if there was going to be a reading special. However, Mercury Retrograde had different ideas and tech would not comply nor work for a few days. Apologies! However, we have it all sorted and the Book of Summer Solstice is done (along with an incredible guided visualisation), and there will be a reading special that will start the day after Solstice.

Now if you have no clue about Summer Solstice or Litha as this celebration is called, as well as Midsummer’s Eve, I will give you a quick and dirty and if you want to find out more, you will most certainly experience it in the most amazing B.O.S.S! (Book of Summer Solstice).

What is the Book of Summer Solstice you may be asking?

This is an amazing 39 page creation filled with Lore, Magick, Spellwork, Deities, Crystal and Chakra work and glorious rituals – both easy and more complex. It is the perfect accompaniment to support you in harnessing the powerful energy of light, manifestation and abundance this Summer Solstice.

I will be honest – this normally retails for $79 – HOWEVER – to honour one of the intentions I have set for Solstice this year, it will be available for $15 (and that includes an amazing 15 minute guided visualisation), for the next 10 days. Or you can access the guided visualisation on it’s own.

So let’s explore Solstice a wee bit.

Solstice comes from the Latin words sol, meaning Sun and sistere, meaning to come to a stop or stand still. On the day of the June solstice, the Sun reaches its northernmost position, as seen from the Earth. At that moment, its zenith does not move north or south as during most other days of the year, but it stands still at the Tropic of Cancer. Which makes it either the longest day or the shortest day of the Year.

Summer Solstice (also known as Litha) is all about abundance, growth, expansion. It’s the celebration of the Sun! Think about it, the farmer plants the seeds in the cool of the Spring in the wet ground and as the Summer Solstice approaches things have sprouted and are reaching up as if they are doing a glorious sun salutation. It’s a time to watch the ripening and fruiting of the plants around us and our ideas. This is a delicious inner fire/power celebration that acknowledges the abundance that grows from tiny seeds. This is a time of really reclaiming your inner power and brightness and mapping out the harvest you desire for the next while.

It’s also a stupendous time for magick! I mean for goodness sakes even William Shakespeare wrote about it in 1596 in his play Midsummer Nights Dream (so that’s how long the magick has been around.) There is a line in the play that says “If we shadows have offended, think but this; and all is mended: that you have but slumbered here while these visions did appear….”

Midsummer’s eve was believed to be a time when the veil between this world and the next is at its thinnest – a time of powerful forces and magical happenings, when fairies were thought to be about and at their most powerful. This otherworldly sense underpins Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, where the fairies use their magic and cause mayhem in the forest.

The magic gets mixed and at one point, Titania, queen of the fairies, falls in love with Bottom, who is unwittingly sporting an ass’s head. But don’t fret – you won’t end up wearing an ass’s head (unless you really, really want to!)

This is a day of inner power,brightness, Magick and manifestation!

So as I mentioned earlier, each Summer Solstice I celebrate in different ways with different rituals, however, one thing I always do is create/craft something to honour the gifts that I receive. Guess what this year’s creation is going to be? Go on, take a guess!

A PORTAL! (No I haven’t lost my marbles at all)

So if any of you have been following the adventures with the faery garden, that became a faery village and then a faery community – you will know there is a delicious handwoven ivy portal in the faery garden. So why not have a life sized one? Yes, one that is 6 feet tall and that you can walk through. Make it out of natural materials such as ivy, driftwood etc and create a sacred space that you can step through and leave the worries and cares behind.

So watch this space – I will let you know next week if I managed to pull it off as I think that would be positively magickal and look stupendous! Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Okay, enough chuntering on. Let’s crack on with the reading. When I asked the guides and cards who wanted to come and share this week I was delighted to see the amazing guides of the Earth Warrior Oracle were most adamant, and the Hansa roses jumped out to support! If you have never been introduced to these auspicious guides, please allow me.

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.”

I so love “All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration”! Yes, Yes, Yes! The perfect energy for Summer Solstice.

Okay darling one. Let’s settle in shall we? Talk a glorious deep breath in and then let it out as a sigh, releasing all the old air that is trapped anywhere. Take another deep breath in and allow your shoulders to relax, your forehead to smooth and your jaw loosen. Breathe in the wondrous energy of Summer Solstice. The energy of magick and manifestation. The energy of creation and clearing. And if you want to go deeper into this energy use the Summer Solstice guided visualisation.

Then when you are ready allow your wise self to pick the card or cards that whisper to your soul.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a gander shall we?

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 the 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.

ALAKOA

Spirit of the Warrior

Though you yearn for peace, you recognise that, without truth, genuine peace can never be. Even if it triggers an upheaval of transformation, the need to set things right is strong in you. This is the inner drive of the spiritual warrior; the compelling soul needs to uphold truth, goodness and justice. You will fight for these things because that is your way, Spirit Warrior. Trust, see and feel the positive impact that you are making in the world. You are relentless and the Divine is with you.

Do not give up. If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart and your heart in awareness of what it is that is inspiring you. Do you feel alone on your quest? Look for the legions of wings in spirit and upon the earth that fight alongside you, fearless and ferocious with love. Be uplifted by your fellow Spirit Warriors, beloved one. Feel the joy of their love and unity with you. You have access to the divine power that conquers any obstacle, wins every battle, and secures every victory.

If a Spirit Warrior tries to fight from a place of despair and darkness, doubt and hate, the battle will become destructive to their soul. When you fight for love from a place of joy, Spirit Warrior, the battle opens your beautiful fierce heart. It uplifts your mind and empowers your soul with the might of divine grace that accomplishes all pursuits and wins every war.

AJNA DURGA

Power of the Good

You need never lose faith in the power of good. You need never lose faith in how much you can accomplish as an independent and inspired individual in this world. You need never believe that you are alone or without divine protection. You need never fear evil. The third eye of the Divine Mother sees all things, is ever watchful and ever just. She births through holy vision, the manifest power of good in all realms. Her gaze is upon you now. Trust her.

Believe in the power of the Divine to keep an eye on things for you. Trust that power to alert you when you need to know something or to understand what is happening in your life and what you need – even if you aren’t so sure of that yourself at times. Be active in contesting negativity. The moment you feel something isn’t coming from love, acknowledge it immediately. You don’t have to make it about you or analyse it. Call for divine support in all things. It is your greatest ally.

Give up your attachment to past experiences of rejection and abandonment so that you can open up to how much the Divine loves you and can help you. Practice feeling the confidence and unconditional trust in a higher power, knowing it is stronger than all else.

Durga is your ally, your divine weapon, your refuge and your vital energy for sacred purpose. Do not allow yourself to be intimidated. Let that confidence and trust in the divine goddess of goodness radiate out of you like a shining sun that fills your heart, your mind and your belly.

Oh my golly Goddess, absolutely delicious guides for this time and the Solstice. So most gorgeous bean, I wish for you the time to set a clear intention, to bring this into form with ritual (which is easy) and to light up with the Summer Solstice. Remember, the B.O.S.S will guide you and support you if you so choose to make a Solstice unlike any other you have had before. See you next week with the details of the reading special. Wish me luck with the Portal! Big hugs and squeezes!

New Moon Eclipse, Summer Solstice and Shake Up Time!

Jenny Heston · 11:11 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Magnificent, Moody, Melancholic, Magickal, Majestic, Moodling, Manifesting Monday! The first Monday in June (how the heck did we end up in June already?) Time is doing some very interesting things for sure! So let me ask – how are you delicious lovely? How was your Full Moon Eclipse?

I will say that I most certainly feel Eclipse energy, but this one handed my arse to me in a paper bag! It was so interesting to witness the feelings that surged up, along with the thoughts and the intense desire to shut the world out and just curl up in the closet with a blankie and close the door! But witnessing and welcoming, without judgement, were the key things that came to the forefront.

So guess what’s happening this week? Frigging Lots!!!

We have the wonderful Mercury retrograde in Gemini, we have the New Moon Eclipse in Gemini. The Shamanic energy of the month is SHAKE UP (if you remember May was TIME TO CHOSE), and we have Summer Solstice rapidly approaching!

Okay, this year Summer Solstice (aka Litha) comes to us this Sunday (June 20th). If you are in the Southern Hemisphere it is your glorious Winter Solstice (aka Yule). And I’m so excited! As I’m sure you know by now, I love celebrating most things – heck I will even celebrate a thunderstorm. However, I love, love, love Solstices and Equinoxes the mostest (and all the other celebrations).

Now you may be thinking – Jen what’s the big deal, what does this Solstice thing matter? Honey, ask me about the ritual and intention I set 3 years ago now and what happened in the space of 2 months, that now allows me to live by the ocean! The intention I set last year allows me to do what I love!

Thus grasshopper Solstice does matter, it matters very much. It’s one of the biggest celebrations on the Wheel of the Year. We are now moving from the element Air (ideas) to Fire (Action and Passion) and Summer Solstice is the celebration of the sun, which is masculine and all about Passion, Action etc. Summer Solstice also marks the longest day of the year – Whoot!

Summer Solstice (also known as Litha) is all about abundance, growth, expansion.

And yes, for all of you who have been asking if there is going to be a Book of Summer Solstice – you bet. If you are part of our email community you will hear about it on Thursday.

Oh yes, and for those of you who have been asking if there is going to be a Solstice reading special – I’m still perking it as there are lots of things in the works right now, so I will let you know next week. Okay.

So mull over the energy of Summer Solstice and throw onto it (think of making a layer cake) the Shamanic energy of June which is SHAKE UP! (Makes me think of the Elvis song my parents used to play when I was little called – All Shook Up, except it’s not about being in Love!

Okay, so what does SHAKE UP mean to and for you? The best person to answer that is the amazing Lena.

“We are in a destabilized time of mental confusion, frustrations around what no longer works, and tremendous opportunities to approach our lives in a new way. Post last month’s powerful full moon and eclipse, we are also in a learning and integration period where we must look back to see and acknowledge what we have left behind that is no longer available to us. Do so with gratitude and faith. No regrets. We have crossed the bridge and there is no going back.

This month there is an internal shake up and external shake up. Internal shakeup is the shakeup of belief systems, your life as you once knew it, identity shifts, emotional challenges of dealing with confusion, change, doubt and trust. External shake up includes literal earth shaking, as in earthquakes and other environmental intensities, unexpected political decisions affecting greater communities and even countries, sudden losses, sudden gains, spontaneous opportunities, some doors closing, some doors opening, and the effects of other people’s decisions and changes on your life as you know it.

The internal shake up requires you to pay attention to your own truth and what is important as you adjust and adapt to a new landscape. The external shake up requires patience, understanding, resilience, community efforts and trusting in right timing. There is an aspect this month of cooperation, sharing with others and collaboration that is key to starting the rebuild of a new foundation for our collective future.

You will feel the need to find balance between personal alone time to integrate your own process, and community time to inspire each other with the possibilities and opportunities for growth and advancement.”

(See I told you it wasn’t so like the Elvis song!)

Then on Thursday June 10th we have the New Moon Eclipse in Gemini, which asks you to trust in whatever has been moving and shaking for you. Know that whatever needs to fall away will fall, and whatever needs to stay will stay. That is the nature and power of Eclipses.

On a human level, we can find ourselves labeling things or events as good or bad, but on a soul level, we understand the bigger picture and know that all experiences serve their purpose. Recognizing this duality within us can be tricky, but may also help to bring some ease as we navigate any changing or unsettling energies that flow our way.

In fact, a good reminder under this Eclipse energy is to not believe everything you think or hear!

A great mantra for this New Moon Eclipse is “Let everything that needs to go, go. Let everything that needs to come, come. All is well.”

So with all this rather “interesting”, yet inviting tumultuous energy around, Summer Solstice intentions are even more important! Trust me!

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 Love Your Inner Goddess Oracle. Perfect! As we could all do with loving ourselves a wee bit more and being a tad more gentle and kind whilst we navigate these delicious times.

Now if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them – “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!

If you want to shake off the worries and cares for a bit, let’s go a bit deeper. Come for a delicious dog walk with me, okay?

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

BRIGHT DESTINY

To become truly yourself, shining your divine beauty and light, you will go through a process of releasing what is no longer right and true for you. Like the caterpillar who sheds the chrysalis when it is time to emerge as the butterfly, you will let go of the person you once thought you needed to be. This can feel freeing, exciting. It can also seem frightening. You may feel crazy sometimes, trying to hold onto a past that is no longer available to you and grasping for a future that is yet to be.

Sometimes, it can feel like a dark night of the soul, filled with questioning and confusion. Others may not understand what is happening, and you may feel as though you can’t really explain it, either. In such times, we have to trust that all the changes and uncertainty are part of a process of growth – letting go in order to open up to something amazing and new. This is happening for you now. You don’t have to be afraid. You are going through this because you are ready for it, even if you think you’re not. There is a loving reason for all of it, even if you cannot see that right now. Put your faith in the mystery. Trust that the answers will come – and so will the joy of all that you have grown into. Stay true to your path and know that you have a bright destiny ahead.

For now, let the process happen. Fear can make us try to force something that isn’t quite ready yet. Don’t try to impose a meaning, take action or understand it all prematurely. Don’t think too hard! It’s OK to relax and trust that the moment of clarity will come when the time is right.

PRIORITY OF PURPOSE

Making a choice can be hard, as if to say yes to one thing, you have to say no to fifteen other things! Remember that saying no is just saying, “not right now”, rather than “never”. There is a higher plan for your life that includes all of your passions. You can do it all, but just not all at once. Your soul knows how to build your most inspired and beautiful divine life, as though it were building an extraordinary temple for your spirit. It knows that the foundations need to be prepared and the walls built before the windows, doors and skylight can be installed. The roof may be absolutely one-of-a-kind incredible, but if you try to lay the roof before you’ve built the walls, you are going to have some problems!

There is a certain order to how things need to happen, which the soul intuitively knows. That is why listening to the soul and trusting your inner guiding voice makes more sense than trying to accomplish everything straight away and ending up with so much less than you deserve for all that effort. Every moment of patience and sacrifice that you make now is stored up by the Universe as a sweet grace that you will receive back later, as everything falls into place so perfectly. Tune in and trust your soul to show you how to gain everything you ever dreamed of, one simple step at a time.

EARTH GODDESS

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, bu 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?”

Sometimes, it will be an obvious action that you can take, and, sometimes you will need to pray and meditate and ask for the way forward to be shown. When you can do something, do it. When you cannot, rest and wait for your intuition to nudge you when the time is right to take action. 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.

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.

Oh my gosh, I so love my guides and the cards. Perfect for this time! So my most glorious one, I wish for you a most amazing week. I will let you know about a reading special next week, and if you want to find out about the Book of Summer Solstice – come join our amazing email community. Sending you massive, massive blessings and hugs. It’s going to be an interesting month – muhahahaha. Remember to be kind to yourself and to breathe.
