Summer Solstice – Ignite Your Inner Flame – Your Internal Sun!

Happy Magickal, Manifesting, Merry, Magnificent Monday!

Solstice is here in 2 days!!!! And for all of those who have asked – YES! There are a few spots open for the Solstice Reading Special (which ends on June 22nd), and YES! The Solstice guides will be available until June 23rd.

We have literally just had the Gemini New Moon -with Gemini ruling over communication, the New Moon in this sign emphasizes the importance of effective self-expression.

So with all that swirling around – Let me ask – how are you feeling?

Right now the Sun is at the height of its power. And so are you.

This month, with the sun at its height–its peak–your own corresponding, internal flame has the potential to also reach its peak.

Your own inner flame–your internal sun–represents your confidence, you drive, your ability to create & take action in the outer world. All these things are being affected by the outer sun; and all these things have the potential to reach new heights this month. (Melded with your ability to express yourself and communicate.)

Think about it, in our Northern Hemisphere Summer Solstice is the longest day and the start of the heat of the summer. The Sun, seen from an esoteric level, is all about love and wisdom. It’s the primary ray of energy from which everything else is created.

It’s the Heart of creation.

This energy invites you to lead from your heart, find your voice, to guide, to shine and share your heart, words, work and all sorts. (Are you ready?) If you need some ideas on how to be like the sun on Solstice, I have 5 of them for you.

At the summer solstice, a doorway in time opens, which our ancestors viewed as sacred and holy.

Litha (Summer Solstice) is a grand portal of energy, space, and opportunity – a chance to let go of fears, doubts, and insecurities, a chance to dance with the Fae. After the Sun reaches its maximum power, it begins to decline. Slowly, the night force will grow stronger until its peak at the winter solstice.

Litha is the last chance in our calendar year to activate sacred intentions before moving into autumn and winter, the natural seasons of harvest and rest.

It’s a time to step out in faith and imagine what’s entirely possible for yourself.

Dream an expansive vision for your life that will sustain you as the darkness slowly returns with the Fall.

If you want to really tap into this potent energy, grab SASS (Stupendously Awesome Summer Solstice guide).

OKay enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading. When I went to ask which guides wanted to share Solstice with you, these glorious ones came to play, which made me grin. Now, if these are new to you – please let me introduce them.

These glorious guides give you needed glimpses into your everyday life and help you see where changes can be made to enhance your life here on Earth. There is so much more to our world than we often perceive.

There exist many dimensions and numerous beings that reside in these realms. All of these elemental beings are interconnected with us. We do not live independent of one another but are interdependent. These wonderful beings are here to help.

They not only take care of the Earth, but they work hard to take care of us. We are familiar with many of these beings, such as angels, faeries, and elves. There are many more we are not conscious of, but they, nevertheless, contribute to the workings of our planet. Remember as you go through your day, to ask for help from the elemental world whenever you need it. The need is never too small to call on their help. It is through helping us that they advance in their spiritual development. We are their work. We in turn can spiritually evolve through allowing them to help us. To all these amazing beings we say Thank You.

Perfect!

Okay glorious one, take a breath. Breathe in long and deep and just any shit go. Breathe into the energy of the sun, the fiery, rich energy. See the light of the sun filling you from the tips of your toes to the ends of your hair. Allow it to warm you, fill you, nourish you and help you find your voice and passion.

If you need a wee bit more support, I have a lovely guided visualisation where we go for a wee meander and play.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that ignite your inner flame.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look shall we?

ACORNS INVITATION

You are being invited to touch the world, to enter into a somatic relationship with the world around and within you. To experience the vitality of the life force that exists in everything, including you, and including your body, with which you may have a conflicted relationship.

The faeries know that your body is a beautiful sacred expression of the spirit and an essential part of the self.

They teach that when we reach out and touch, not only do we connect with another, but we are touched in return. Thus through the act of physical communion we are touched, held and nurtured.

It cannot be otherwise.

The impact of touch is so underestimated, but this faery man reminds you that without touch, you can become sad, depressed, unwell and your immune system weakens.

While you are alive in your current form, this faery wants you to know that you must touch and be touched to be whole. Physicality is your friend.

Hug, hold hands, rub a back, get or give a massage, rub feet and connect.

Allow a butterfly to alight on your finger. Pat a dog. Stroke a cat. Look into someone’s eyes while you sit with knees touching. For this touching is healing, and touch has the ability to uplift us, comfort us, soothe us, cure us, and make us vibrate with bliss.

THE SECRET PATH

Faeries love country paths and wooded ways that twist and bend and take shape, but that are mysterious and very bright and dark, spooky and sweet all at the same time.

Likewise, your own path must have both light and shade, and it is never straight!

Faeries walk their paths to revive the land, and they take rests at special trees and wells, as do you, in your own way, create magick when you are true to your path.

You are being drawn down a path that has the potential to lead you to a rich source of wisdom – one danced and sang and dreamt down by these faeries you now see. These faeries would have been spoken of in the old ways as “trooping” but here we would say they are following their path: swiftly, joyfully, singing and dancing their way to a destination that will be full of riches and joy, profound learnings and deep initiations.

You are being beckoned again to rejoin your path, and perhaps your first steps will be to wander a little, to travel, and see where the lines of magick within the earth herself take you.

Paint your body with a little of the earth, and let the earth on you sing to the earth beneath your feet, and soon the song will be alive in your blood again.

You are also reminded by the faeries that you can walk your path, be dragged along your path, meander from your path, slow down on your path or dance and be joyful on your path.

How you walk it is empowered by your unique self’s intent, and as you already know, intent is the heart of many a matter.

Take steps again to be on your path.

Reconnect with the song of the land that sings in your blood, and you too, like these beautiful beings, will be called home.

STAR DUST

This beautiful faery seems somewhat unsettled. She is listening, waiting, reaching out to the galactic web to try and put together pieces of the information she is receiving.

For she has experienced a premonition, but as these things go for us all, we are never entirely certain of what will happen, and when. Only that something will happen, and soon.

And so she reaches out to what we humans have called the heavens. She looks to the cycles beyond those of this earth and wonders if we are all in the process of major change, a change so profound we have not yet found the words to describe it.

She understands that the premonition she has is about cycles that reflect those on each, but she is unsure what to make of what she is feeling and sensing.

So she looks to the night skies, at a time when there is peace, stillness, and quiet, and gazes up above at the lifeforms and planets and the stars and their galaxies, and knows she has lived beyond this dimension, and that what might be reaching her is significant far beyond her life, magickal as it is.

As she gazes up, there are baby stars and dying stars. There is stardust, which is sent out by the dying stars, and breathed in by the nebulae and used to form their new star-selves.

This is a true premonition. It is not an empathic moment, where she feels the strange feelings and sensations of another. She has had a postcard from the future, and from a place far beyond her home. And so she waits and knows that while her premonition is as ephemeral as light as stardust, she knows too that it is powerful, and will create ripples throughout all time, and all places.

It’s time for you to return to source and rewrite the soul contract so that you can change and move into a new stage of life, a new incarnation.

In order to make sense of these feelings, you may need to be alone and in the dark, dancing with the night sky to work something out.

Seek connection in the night sky – when you can see other constellations and galaxies – and understand your own stardust self and origins.

Allow the clues and messages to come, don’t worry about the clarity right now.

Yummers! May you light your inner flame gorgeous one and use your voice, heart and soul to express your unique glorious self. May the sun remind you of how strong you are and have a glorious Solstice! Sunbeam kisses and big hugs.

Solstice is here in 9 days! A glorious Solstice Guide (for Summer/Winter), and a Solstice Reading Special just for you!

Jenny Heston · 5:55 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Magnificent, Moody, Melancholic, Magickal, Majestic, Moodling, Manifesting Monday!

First off, thank you to all who sent messages and emails about jury selection, I really appreciated them all!

So before we explore everything for this week, I would like to share how I got handed a glorious reminder – words have power, huge fucking power! (I should know this, duh.)

I received the jury selection notice about a month or so ago and from that moment on I kept saying “Nope, nope, nope, I can’t sit for a whole darn day” (as that’s not how I work) etc.

So my back went out a week ago on Thursday and the pain level was 9/10 and lo and behold I couldn’t sit. In fact I couldn’t sit, lie down with any comfort or fairly much do the things that I normally do.

Finally, my wise self kicked in and whomped me alongside the head with a 2×4 and reminded me Abracadabra – I will create as I speak. So I had a glorious talk with my back about what I had been saying and about 20 minutes later I received a call from the Sheriff’s office.

Jury selection had been cancelled!

By the next day my back was down to a 3/10 pain.

So remember, the words we use over and over again with feeling and intent (whether conscious or not), create magick.

What kind of magick do you want to create?

With that in mind let’s talk Solstice!

Yup, June 21st Summer Solstice is here!

You may be thinking to yourself – um, err, what the heck Jenn, what’s the big deal, what does it matter. Ahhh grasshopper it does matter, it matters very much. It’s one of the biggest celebrations on the Wheel of the Year, and has been celebrated since neolithic times.

It’s a time of power, abundance and magick, as Summer Solstice is one of the 3 days of the year when the veil is thin and the Fae come out to play! 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.) Muhahaha.

Summer Solstice is the celebration of the sun, which is masculine and is the energy of Passion, Action and igniting your inner fire. This is why your Summer Solstice guide is referred to as SASS! Stupendously Awesome Summer Solstice!

This glorious guidebook is 45 pages filled with empowering soul work, rituals to connect you to your own fire, lore, herb magick, crystal magick, body magick, a guided visualisation, spells and so much more – all to help you connect with your own inner flame & use this seasonal energy to ignite.

(And for those of you in the South I have a glorious guide for you, which I fondly refer to as BOWS as you experience the Winter Solstice,!)

The Sun is entering the height of its power this month … and so are you.

With the Sun reaching the peak of its cycle, your own corresponding inner flame also has the potential to reach its peak.

Your inner flame – your own internal sun – is the source of your own fire, your power, your ability to create & take action in the outer world. All these things are being affected by the outer Sun; and all they have the potential to reach new heights this month.

With our side of the Earth (Northern Hemisphere) being flooded with the intense fiery energy of the sun, this fire gives you extra energy, extra power, expanded confidence.

Your work right now is to soak up as much of that fire energy as you can. It has the power to uplift you & empower you. It will help fuel you –in all areas of your life.

The Summer Solstice sun will help ignite your internal fire, and inspire you to grow & mature in whatever ways you are meant to in your life.

So grab SASS and let’s go light some things up!

Many of you have emailed and asked if I am going to do a Summer Solstice reading special. So the spiritual posse and I had a natter, felt into it and yes!

Yes, there will be a special on three readings just for Summer Solstice that will help you ignite your inner fire, passion and also release the things that no longer serve you so you can move forward with purpose.

I will say, I love these 3 reading specials (especially the soul and personality one!)

We are going to limit the amount of readings to 21 (the same number as the Solstice this year), so it will be a first come first serve basis.

Okay I’ve chuntered on long enough. Let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

When I went to the cards and checked in with my delightful guides I was tickled to see who they had picked. Of course it had to be the Fae, perfect guides for the build up of Summer Solstice energy!

Solstice is one of the three times in the year when the veil is thin between the realms and the Fae come to play.

So if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce you to them.

These guides are the magickal and mystical that weave through the threads of every day, they are the Dragonfae, Gods and Goddesses who dwelt in dimensional lands….Eden, Avalon, Ys, Atlantis and Mu, they are Morgan, Guenevere, Merlin and others – fully alive and filled with magick!

They are the deliciously magickal beings that have always been there, we just forgot, and when we connect with them, we reconnect with the lost parts of ourselves, allowing us to fully explore the gift of life on this beautiful green and blue planet, known by some as Gaia, by others as Dana, and by many other names.

Yummly delicious!

Okay dear one, just take a breath. I invite you to see in your mind’s eye your own inner flame. That place of passion, excitement, power. Watch the colours dance and play as you notice it. Place your hand on your belly and breathe into that spot, long, slow and deep. Allow yourself to see in the flames what you want to ignite with passion. Then when you are ready pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Ready to go have a look?

MELUSINE

Love who you are

Keys are rare in the realm of spirit; but I now provide you with a key that will open the door to who you truly are. Your true feelings about self-worth and self-love have been hidden, locked away for years, but now they will be revealed, and healed, for all time.

For there is a part of you that you feel is not suitable to be shown to others, particularly in romantic relationships. You feel that this part of you is unacceptable and lacking in beauty. However, this part of you, in being denied, is causing pain and guilt to surface within relationships where there need be none.

You deserve to be loved for all of you, for the parts that are claws and thorns, for your lines and your grief, for your irritability and your sadnesses. Come forward and be revealed, and never again mistrust or reject a portion of who you are.

Embrace your scars and flaws, and see them as wonderful differences that only make you unique, and very real. Open your heart, unlock the door and step out of the enchanted chamber in which you have hidden this aspect of who you are.

Love all of you, your body and soul, your mind and spirit, your ancestry and your trials and challenges. You are perfect, whole and complete, with the unique stamp of this individual body and soul upon you.

Take this key, and unlock the secret parts of you. Let them see the light, and know that you are safer for doing so than you have ever been before, in any of your numerous lifetimes.

HIDEKI’S DOOR

A knock on the door

I know you wish to reach out, and yet you hold back. I know you feel drawn to knock on this door and to see whether it will be answered this time…and yet you fear so much. You fear that it will not be answered…that the answer or the face that appears beyond the door will not be to your liking…that if you enter, you may never return…

I cannot put your fears to rest, for only you can do that. But I can tell you what I see. I see a spirit whose flame has flickered low, whose light is in danger of going out if it does not take the next step. For years you have passed this door and many times you have found yourself here. You may even have knocked at the door, only to flee, like a terrified child, before the door was opened to you.

I say to you now: it is time. Reach out. Knock at the door. And let what will be, be.

Nervous about a new chance…feeling as though your comfort zone is far better than the unknown; longing to travel and to change, yet unwilling to do anything about it; procrastinations and old habits keeping you from reaching out and accepting what is being offered.

You are ready…it is simply nerves that are holding you back, conditioned fears and internalised voices from the past. Reach out…take a hold of the handle and be ready for the wonder of the unknown that lies beyond the door. The doors of perception are about to change…forever.

You have nothing to fear, except fear freezing your hand, again. Knock on the door. All is well.

WU-WANG

Wild, pure heart

In times of olde, they said that only those who were pure could connect with those like myself. That the virgin could connect with the Unicorn. That the child could see the meaning of God. That the fae would truly see into your heart, and finding it corrupt, would never appear to you.

I am here to tell you that your heart is pure and wild and innocent. It is that you have forgotten how to see us, that you have been told that in order to see us, you must be perfect. That in order to see us, you must be mad, unclean, broken, and if you say you have seen us, you face being shunned.

I am here to say to you that we appear to those who have looked into their hearts and have seen beyond the woundings….because within you there is a wild and untrammelled heart space which is free of any taint. In that space we can enter and therefore, we can and we will be seen again. You were not born into this world wrong or sinful. There may be karmic markings, but you are no sinner, nor are you corrupt or unworthy.

Foster that which is wild and pure and good with you, and we will begin to appear and come forth. You will feel us on the wind, in the water, see us in the fire and hear our voices emanating from the heart of our mother, the Earth.

You are a child of the Mother, call her what you will, and at your core you are one of the wild ones. That is my message for you.

Yes!!!! Oh my Goddess, what glorious guides as we move towards Summer Solstice. Loving Yourself, Opening New Doors and celebrating your Wild Pure Heart! Whoot! Positively Perfect. So dear one, remember to pick up your SASS or BOWS guide, snag one of the few spots for the Solstice reading special, and I will see you next week. Happy June!

Civic Duty and Intuitive Choices.

Jenny Heston · 2:22 pm ·

Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Magnificent, Musical, Mysterious Monday!

Well here we are in June and yesterday we had the glorious Strawberry Moon!

I don’t know about you, but it’s been a full week!

My most amazing daughter Morgen and her huge, gloriously fat 8 month old baby called Callum came to visit for the week and to help celebrate the mothership’s 95th birthday. The last time Morgen came to visit, which was in January, my housemate gave us all the plague so we spent the visit in our beds!

This time however, with the lovely weather, I juggled my work schedule and took time to play and boy did we ever. We explored a Medieval Festival, went on multiple glorious hikes, took Callum to the petting zoo (which was more for us than him, lol). Made jewellery together, went to all the Farmer’s markets, had a picnic in a daisy meadow and much more!

And then I managed to tweak my lower back on Thursday as I parkoured into the back of the car in a frenzy of cleaning, prior to picking up the mothership and taking her around the gardens of Government House and to a cute tea room!

By Friday everything came to a grinding slow down (totally pisses me off when that happens). I was frigging, hobbling and bitchy as all get out which got my mind spinning to the fact that I have been “chosen” for jury selection on Thursday and if picked I can look forward to a 7 day criminal trial!

I’m sorry, I have no desire, zip, zero, zilch to sit on a jury. None whatsoever!

When I have mentioned that to a couple of people, I am very politely reminded that it is my Civic Duty, that I should give back to my community. Mmmmmmmm. Well that got right up my nose.

I have coached football (soccer) for 25 years, purely as a volunteer. I have coached rugby, I volunteer for Hospice, Women In Need homes, Animal Shelters, and Compost Education centres.

I vote, I obey most laws but I don’t believe we have a Justice system, I believe we have a legal system and I have no desire to partake of it to be honest.

Let alone the fact that I can’t sit still for a whole day, or that my 23 year old son, Rowan, has his convocation for completing his degree with honours through a pandemic (and I am not going to miss that), or a 3 month old puppy that needs to be let out every hour and a half. And the list goes on.

So no, I have no desire to be selected for jury duty!

Thus, I did what any normal person would do and hung up my macrame swing that I made the other year and talked to the Full Moon as she beamed through the branches of the Garry Oaks above me. I took some time to ask myself some questions that really tie into this last Full Moon of Spring, let the breeze waft and the scent of the flowers dance around me.

It was quite delicious!

I also spent time planning out a Summer Solstice gathering and feeling into the ideas for a guide for Summer Solstice – so we will have to see how that comes through.

So let me ask, how are you feeling delicious lovely?

With June we have an energy shift from the TENSION of May to INTUITIVE CHOICES (I love this).

So let’s get Lena to explain it all shall we?

The theme for June is: “Intuitive Choices”

“Emotional clarity becomes more available this month as we assimilate the lessons of the recent eclipses and align ourselves with the next intuitive step.

The theme of Intuitive Choices has everything to do with stepping into the power of trusting the heart instead of the head and allowing for our curiosity and what is choosing us to be the compass instead of a plan based on a rationalised set of responsibilities and expectations.

There is an opportunity to settle into right timing and the magic of synchronicity and spontaneous events that feel emotionally aligned. In this energetically softer month we can begin to really feel what wants to support us and where we may be struggling down the wrong path.

Since the emotional centre is a much faster processor than the intellectual centre, we will feel into people and situations and either move away from or towards them before the mind has a chance to process the information. Trusting the intelligence of the heart is an important step if we are to reset ourselves on the path that is choosing us. You may not “know” intellectually why you are drawn to certain people, places or experiences, but if you trust that you do “know” intuitively, that is what is important. You may not be able to explain to someone why you are making a particular choice, but if you are clear about it, that is all that matters.”

I love how the emotional centre is acknowledged this month, as this is one of the things I teach in my Mastery and Manifestation course.

Many people don’t understand that what we allow, either from outside or from ourselves, into our bio morphogenic bubble impacts every cell in our body and what we are able to create.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading.

When I asked who wanted to come and guide this week I laughed as it was The Signs of the Times.

You are being invited into a conversation with the Divine and your Higher Self that will feed your soul and reveal the very answers you are seeking. Let go of doubt and follow the signs.

Awesome!

Okay dear one, take a moment. Really breathe into the place of “what is the sign I need right now”. Let your mind chatter slow and entertain itself in a corner and ask that question again.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

LABYRINTH

Journey

You are on your own path, and the labyrinth represents the simple fact that this journey will take you in many different directions. Unlike in a maze, in a labyrinth there are no dead ends or wrong ways.

You will not always understand the route you are on, but you can either choose to be confused and scared, or see it as an opportunity to learn lessons and discover strengths.

This sign encourages you to embrace where you are on your journey and resist comparing yourself to anyone else. Listen to your intuition and use that as guidance to face any challenges. Keep moving forward.

The gift of the journey is not the destination itself; it is the experiences and lessons learned along the way that have shaped you into a person who is prepared to reach that destination.

Like stumbling upon a labyrinth in a park or seeing one incorporated in a log, this sign is an invitation to embrace the unpredictability of your own spiritual journey and the growth that comes along with it.

Embrace self-discovery!

STARS

Divine Guidance

Looking up at the stars at night can be a magical and almost spiritual experience. They are a reminder that we are all here on a rock, floating in the middle of a mysterious universe.

If you are seeking direction or guidance, you will receive answers and clarity soon.

The human experience is linked to the stars: for centuries, navigators have used them to learn where they are on Earth, astronomers have used them to learn where we are in the Universe, and astrologers have used them to help us find our place in both.

Right now, you may be unclear on different areas of your life or wondering why certain things are happening.

Spirit is asking you to connect by setting intentions, asking for Divine Guidance, and looking up for answers.

Allow the Universe to work its magic by asking from the heart and being open to the way the answers come to you. You will be pointed in the right direction.

The stars will tell you where you are. Have faith in yourself!

ANCHOR

Stability

Stability and security are essential in your life at this time. You are feeling grounded, calm, and comfortable, which is reflected in your finances, home life, work, and personal relationships.

There is tremendous mental ease that comes with knowing those areas of your life are solid. If you have been working to achieve a goal, the rewards will come in the form of stability.

This sign can also represent feeling safe and protected from outside elements, which can include people, places, or things – even if the waves roll in and shake things up, you are confident in your position and your strength.

The tricky thing about anchors is that as much as they provide a stable foundation, they can also create a dynamic of complacency. You can end up stuck, tethered to what is familiar and safe, and miss opportunities to take risks and grow.

Continue to check in with yourself to ensure your desire for stability doesn’t end up holding you back.

Don’t hold yourself back by clinging to the electric fence of your comfort zone!

I don’t know about you, but I love the guides that chose to come out for this week. Have a stupendous week dear one, remember to come from your emotional centre when making choices and trust your intuition. Huge hugs and warm sunbeams.

Memorial Day, Are You Willing? And the Strawberry Full Moon!

Jenny Heston · 3:33 pm ·

Happy Magnificent, Magickal, Marvelous, Majestic Memorial Monday.

(To all my US friends), and happy Spring Bank holiday to all my lovely UK friends!

Wow, May seems to have just flown by! It just seems a hot minute ago that we were talking about the energy of this month being TENSION and pffft, the month is almost done.

Although, I will say I am reveling in the warm weather, the garden growth and all the amazing smelly flowers that come out and dance for us in this time of late Spring.

This weekend we celebrated the mother-ship’s 95th birthday, with a feast, family, friends, frivolities and fun. It was so interesting to see all the different personalities meld and the cool conversations that unfolded.

During that event, I had a great conversation with one of my boys about the book “Unfuck Yourself” (he had just discovered it recently.)

He brought up the key phrase that can really Unfuck you……… Ready?

Super simple, but super powerful when faced with confusion, stagnation and all the rest of that dross.

The phrase is “AM I WILLING?”

Am I willing to do the work to make a change? Am I willing to get off the sofa and go to the gym to lose weight? Am I willing to release those relationships that drain me?

AM I FUCKING WILLING TO MAKE CHANGE?

Then interestingly enough the author goes on to say, if you can’t come up with anything to put on your AM I WILLING list. Turn it around and ask yourself the same question in a different way “WHAT AM I NOT WILLING TO DO OR PUT UP WITH?”

For example, I am not willing to put up with this abusive relationship. I am not willing to continually struggle. I am not willing to be continually dismissed. I am not willing to feel unhealthy………..

It’s quite fascinating to play with, write down and it most certainly unravels those threads that can make you feel like you are tied up in a knot.

Dare you to try it!

This Saturday (June 3rd) we welcome in the Strawberry Full Moon.

This is the first Full Moon since our lovely Eclipse Season and the heralding of Summer and Summer Solstice.

The Strawberry Moon of June is named for the wild and ripe strawberries that reach their peak in June. It’s believed that picking strawberries beneath the light of the moon honors the crops and ensures a bountiful yield.

Strawberries are considered a food of love, representative of the goddess Freya, and they symbolize love and luck. June’s Strawberry Moon meaning embodies the magic and fullness of life.

This is the best moment to make difficult decisions or to face responsibilities you’ve been avoiding. Start fresh and dive deep into personal growth! Remember to pace yourself, don’t burn yourself out in your excitement and enthusiasm. Evaluate your goals and intentions to make sure they are realistic and achievable.

New life, sunlight, magic, joy, and strength are everywhere. The earth and the universe are surging with enthusiasm! Your intuition is at a peak! So keep an open mind to all of life’s adventures and twists.

A delicious thing to do under this Full Moon is to go sit outside beneath the moon, or someplace quiet where you will not be disturbed. Reflect on 3 things you are grateful for right now.

Feel free to say the following chant or repeat it in your mind:

Tonight I sit beneath this Strawberry Moon feeling grateful for (say the 3 things you chose above). I’m grateful for the Moon above and the Earth below me. As the season turns I wish strength, abundance, hope, and love for myself and those I care for.

Feel the white and glowing energy of the Strawberry Moon fill you up. Then just spend the next 5-10 minutes meditating quietly.

Okay, enough chuntering – let’s crack on with the reading.

We have glorious new guides this week! They are your Gateway guides, they are your keys to unlocking a mystic portal into the inner knowing and ancient wisdom within you. They can open a wondrous realm where you can explore your life and discover what destiny has in store for you.

Are you ready?

Take a deep breath honey, just drop into this moment and ask yourself what would it look like to be willing and to start fresh. Allow that energy to fill your being and then when you are ready pick the card or cards that resonate for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go have a look, shall we?

RISING ABOVE

Let go of the ordinary and step into the extraordinary. You have potential that you haven’t even begun to tap into. This is the time to reach higher than ever before, so do not fall down before doubt.

Remember your true calling.

Just as the lotus rises up out of the mud into the light, so you are rising up to even greater heights. Sometimes this occurs naturally, and sometimes it’s an act of will.

This is the time to rise above any situation that’s not empowering. Even if there are some people you might leave behind, let your light shine for all to see.

Rise up and step into your potential!

ACCEPTING WHAT IS

Accept your life in all its configurations. Know that every moment, situation, and event has profound value….even if it doesn’t seem like it.

Accept your inner majesty and be present.

You are magnificent and wondrous beyond measure. Embrace all those parts of yourself!

It is an act of both power and faith to love, honour, and accept what is. At times it can be challenging to truly accept what’s occurring in your life.

When you do so, however, you affirm that there’s a plan for your life and that everything is working for your highest good.

Accepting “what is” doesn’t mean that you can’t work to change it, because you can. It does mean that there is gentle, yet profound, awareness that every experience can support your highest good and spiritual evolution.

If there is something you just can’t accept, start by gently acknowledging the fact that you can’t accept it, don’t push it into the closet and hide it away.

As you increase your own acceptance in life, this will help others be at peace in their own lives.

SAVOURING PLEASURE

Fill your life with people, experiences, and places that bring you delight and joy.

Live deliciously!

Release the need to be practical in all situations. Surround yourself with beauty and sumptuous pleasures.

You’re not meant to solely work hard and be dutiful and diligent. Life should be lived abundantly and fully. Give yourself permission to be happy and experience profound gratification and gratitude.

Embrace pleasure whenever you can.

Create personal environments that fill you with deep satisfaction. Cherish your friendships. Love often and deeply. Allow your senses to be satisfied.

See, hear, taste, touch, and feel the beauty within and around you.

Drink well, eat well, and dance into the early morning hours.

Wow! Perfect guides for this Strawberry Moon, as it’s all about embracing life, getting clear and reveling in who you are! Wishing you a stupendous week of love, laughter and all sorts of possibilities. Take some time under the Moon. Big hugs and squeezes.

Get Outside, Get Grounded and say Hello to the Taurus New Moon.

Happy Magickal, Musing, Merry, Manifesting, Magnetic May Monday!

How are you most delicious lovely? How are you juggling the delightful energies of May?

So many of you, and various friends, have shared that it feels very much like you are in a blender and being spun and scrambled. I loved my friend Lisa’s description – “It feels like someone has taken a chopstick to my brain and stirred it all up.”

I totally get it, what with being in the midst of an intense Eclipse Portal, with a side of Mercury retro – no shit! But the bonus news is Mercury went direct yesterday! Whoot!

But to top off the delicious energies, the weather is doing wonky things and the heat has cranked up here.

It’s Hawt, Hawt, Hawt.

We have an unprecedented heat wave in effect which is meant to break records all over the place – blaugh!

Now, I don’t know about you but the heat makes me wilt, and rather crotchety and all in all, I’m not a supreme fan – Spring and Fall are my favourite seasons.

Yes, I do like a warmish summer day, and a cute sundress (with pockets), but not when it is so hot that it’s impossible to hang out in the sun. Grumble, grumble.

However, my garden loves it and things are popping up like mad, veggies, wildflowers, herbs, it makes me super happy.

I had plans with the boys on Mother’s Day to go play mini golf in the afternoon, but when I saw the temperature it was a quick change of plans.

They very kindly agreed to get up at 6am so we could go beachcombing, driftwood gathering (for faery homes) and shell finding.

It was divine.

Grounding, calm, fun and relaxed and oh so quiet as most humans were still in bed (thanks guys for getting up so early).

I love exploring all the various landscapes that surround where I live. The various beaches that are all different, the forests, the garry oak ecosystems, the meadows, the mountains. You name it!

I find it soul soothing and oh so wonderfully rejuvenating and nourishing.

With an Aries Moon in my chart my favourite self care and nourishment is to be outdoors in Nature and have a fabulous picnic somewhere after a glorious exploration.

I’m not a “Hang out in a bubble bath and read a book” kinda gal.

This week, on Friday the 19th we welcome the New Moon in Taurus and with that comes delicious grounding energy.

Take a moment and think about the image of Taurus.

It’s a great big bull/ox with a huge solid body mass and all four feet connected to the earth.

Grounding at its finest, or maybe I should say – most solid!

“Take a deep breath. Inhale through your nose and exhale out of your mouth, letting out a sigh. Almost like a sigh of relief. Feel the weight releasing from your chest and shoulders. Perhaps unclench your jaw or stretch your arms out. Settle into your being and soak in the wisdom the Taurus New Moon brings…

The Taurus New Moon on May 19, 2023, holds a grounding vibration, allowing us to rebalance our being and reconnect to a state of ease. We have been through much since the last lunar cycle and now we are given a moment to pause.

While this pause will give us a chance to centre ourselves, there is also some high-powered energy flowing through at the time of this New Moon, activating our Solar Plexus Chakra and inviting us to reconnect with our power.”

Taurus is a sign associated with stability and security, and that is exactly what is on offer under this New Moon. How can you create more security in your life? What steps can you take to feel more stable and secure in yourself?

Issues that crop up around the time of this New Moon may very well be linked to subconscious feelings of insecurity or a lack of self-worth. Pay attention to anything uncomfortable that arises at this time, and see if your insecurities may be playing a role.

So to give you some food for thought I have some lovely journal prompts for you and a wee bit of Taurus Magic to soothe your body.

Okay, enough chuntering, let’s crack on with the reading shall we?

When I asked the cards who wanted to come and share, these glorious guides were front and centre!

So in case you have never met them, let me introduce you – and if you have met them before, let me reintroduce you (as not to do so is rude!). “You have a sacred destiny; we all do. There is a powerful and profound reason that you are here on the planet. However, sometimes it may be difficult to understand what that reason is and perceive what is required on your journey into the future. It may be a challenge to know what the next step in life should be. This is the time to call upon the energy of nature and majesty of the natural world to provide answers to the heartfelt yearnings of your soul. In ancient traditions, shamans, medicine women, witches, visionaries, and prophets all accessed hallowed knowledge by observing their natural environment. These wise beings stepped through mystic gateways into inner realms to bring back meaning to the seemingly random event of life. “

Perfect!

I invite you to just pause, to be still, to allow the swirling energies or your mind chatter to gently slow down as your breath leads the way. Then invite into your mind’s eye, the image of the bull. Solid, grounded, earthed, connected. Then ask your wise inner self – what do you need to know to feel that kind of connection?

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that call to you.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go look, shall we?

STILLNESS

Frozen Tundra

The tundra is a stark and severe landscape found in both the southern and northern hemispheres. It is usually bereft of most plant and animal life, and can only support very low-growing plants such as mosses and lichen.

The soil is frozen year-round, so it is impossible for trees to grow in that barren landscape. In the winter, the landscape is very cold and dark, and wild winds surge across the desolation.

Even in the summer, the land remains frozen, although the surface can be soggy and covered with lakes, marshes, ponds, and bogs that become havens for millions of migrating

So what is the message in this landscape?

Take a step back from a project, situation, or relationship, even if for just a few moments.

Mend bridges. Slow down. Breathe. Be Still. Go within. Listen to your inner voice.

Take time to connect with your spirit guides, ancestors, and spiritual guardians. Listen to your higher self.

Timing is everything.

This is not a good time to start a new cycle. Wait. Incubate. Fix things that need fixing. Heal things that need healing, and think things through.

Most importantly Forgive yourself and others (forgiveness truly given is a powerful tool).

If things seem barren, or even bleak, or the energy is flat, hold on.

Just as the migrating birds find new life in the tundra marshes in the summer, you too will expand once again during the coming thaw in your life.

HEALING CHAOS

Spiralling Tornado

Energy in our Universe spirals. Water spirals in the wake of the fish that swims through the stream. Air spirals in the wake of a bird in flight. The moon spirals around the earth, which spirals around the sun, which spirals around the galaxy.

Even our DNA is a spiral. It is the healing principle of life.

It’s not an accident that the ancient symbol for healing is the caduceus: two spiralling serpents.

It is the sacred spiral.

Most people assume that there is nothing good that comes from tornados, but every part of nature has value.

For example, although some birds lose their habitat from a tornado, birds such as the prairie warbler, whippoorwill, woodpecker, grouse, and woodcock, as well as forest salamanders, all benefit from the new landscape created by tornadoes.

Downed trees provide habitat for black bears and white tailed deer and create dens for many kinds of animals.

Tornadoes churn up the soil in ways that rejuvenate the earth.

So what is this landscape sharing with you?

When you pick Healing Chaos you are acknowledging potential chaos (or the need for chaos) as an activator for profound healing.

If your life seems chaotic, know that it has an underlying energy of healing. You are being healed on all levels. You are a healer.

However, if your life is calm to the point of being stagnant, it might be time to create a bit of chaos in your life. It will really activate healing, shift and glorious new energy.

Do the unexpected. Mix life up a bit.

EMBRACING

Floodplains

A floodplain is a naturally occurring phenomenon in which the land adjacent to a river floods out to far banks of the surrounding land during times of high water.

Land that is normally dry may be underwater for a period of time.

When this occurs, silt, sand, and nutrients are deposited. For this reason, floodplains are often areas of great fertility as well as rich ecosystems. They are excellent areas for lush, abundant crops.

It is a natural occurrence that allows life in all areas to thrive.

So what do you believe this landscape is saying to you?

Sometimes life overflows with emotions, which can feel uncomfortable. (As water is very much associated with emotions). However, the ensuing result of this discomfort can be of great value, perhaps arising from an unseen or unknown source.

Do you feel your emotions are overflowing, or not flowing at all?

Cherish the overflow of emotions, and embrace the times that seem murky, for your inner floodplains are being replenished, and as a result, there will be massive spiritual and physical expansion.

Embrace all your emotions; don’t judge them. After all, when we look at the word e-motion, it is energy in motion and needs to flow.

When you embrace all your emotions; greater prosperity and fertility can flow into your life.

If your emotions have been blocked, now is the time to explore them, feel into them, and experience them so they can move and flow like the water.

Woosah! Wow, those are amazing messages for getting grounded, don’t you agree? Wishing you a stupendous week, take time to ground, root and get outside! There won’t be a reading next week (I don’t believe lol) as it is a long weekend here and I plan on playing and getting outdoors. Massive hugs and squeezes and be kind with yourself.
