Happy Magickal, Marvellous, Melancholy, Majestical, Maddening, Merry, Manifesting Monday!
It’s the last Monday of February, this month has flown by fast, unlike January!
If you have worked with me, you will know that I am blunt, speak the truth as I am told it, and am also highly compassionate. So you ready to go a bit deeper? As quite frankly “fluffy” conversations bore the snot out of me.
So let me ask. How are you doing? I mean really doing? What’s happening in your body? Your energy field? Your heart and soul?
Do you feel that the world is going to hell in a handbasket? Because let’s be honest we are still in the middle of a massive pandemic and I know quite a few people who are struggling with the choices of what to do around that, or the effects of it.
We are advised “everything is going back to normal”, but let’s be honest – WTF is normal right now? (Normal is a delicious palette to create something better in my opinion).
And now we have Russia invading Ukraine!
I will be honest, when that happened last week my heart hurt and there was a sense of really, WTF! I’m sure you share the heaviness in my heart at what’s happening in Ukraine and in so many places around the world. We humans know how to make a mess, don’t we? As always, whenever I feel powerless I redouble my efforts to put my work out into the world to help people live more empowered lives so they can pass on that healing.
Quite a few of my clients and friends shared all the feelings they are having at the moment. Ranging from anger, fear, grief, confusion, overwhelm and anxiety, and ancestral memory which is in your bones and your DNA.
A few of them wanted to normalise all of those feelings and stuff them into a box and put them in the bottom of the closet. All of which I totally understand.
But let me ask, what do you do when things flood up like that and knock you sideways? When things feel dark and not comfortable?
It’s normal to dive into the fight, flight, freeze response, or more commonly the overwhelm, shut down and tune everything out. Yeah, those work for a wee bit, but they aren’t the solution.
More than ever this is the time to ground, to feel your feet on the earth and release all the sticky, icky bits down to turn into cosmic compost. This is the time to connect to a daily practice that nourishes and supports you – whether that is prayer, meditation, journaling, walking in nature. It’s the time to reconnect to your light. That gorgeous spark inside you that burns strong and true.
This is the time to be gentle with yourself and not try and “logic” your way out of the feelings, but do things that bring you joy and allow that dis-quiet and dis-ease to flow through you. And to breathe into them and allow them to be transmuted in the flame of your inner light.
When we stand with our feet on the earth, grounded, heart up and open, realise we are all in this together and welcome in support, magick and miracles happen.
Because remember – we are all interdependent and interconnected.
We are all part of a Divine EcoSystem and Community.
And when you feel like you have no control over what is happening around you, remember the Serenity Prayer. “Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference.”
This all ties into the energy of the New Moon in Pisces that happens on March 2nd.
“At the time of the New Moon the sky goes dark, not even a small crescent of the Moon can yet be seen. Darkness has always been synonymous with the creative feminine that lives within all of us. It is in the darkness that creative energy is at its highest. It is in the darkness that we often feel safe enough to become our true selves and where our deepest emotions are often set free.
Under the March 2nd Pisces New Moon, we may be feeling close to the darkness. We may find ourselves journeying through the shadows, or coming face to face with whatever has been dwelling in the hidden corners of our heart, mind, and soul.
It is easy to be afraid of the dark as it can often stir things that we don’t wish to confront. But this confrontation is often necessary to lead a richer and fuller life. This confrontation is often necessary to discover ourselves on a deeper level and to move past our blocks and barriers.
There is a strength that can be found when we allow ourselves to sit in the dark. Just think of the seed. As it is submerged into the dark soil, it really has just been positioned to grow and flourish into something new and grand. The same can be said for us.
Darkness is also the foundation for the magical energies of creation and manifestation. It is in the darkness that energy can be morphed into something. It is in the darkness that new life takes hold.
Under the energies of the March New Moon, we may feel gently guided to sit with the darkness within. This may require us to confront something deeper, or allow us to connect with the energy of magic and creation.”
There is a strong emphasis under this March 2022 Pisces New Moon to take the time to think about our past and what we can learn, or what we need to move on from.
So when I went to the cards and asked who wanted to guide and share this week, The Earth Warriors Oracle stepped up front and centre, there was no doubt. So if these guides are new to you, please let me introduce them. They are frigging perfect for this time!
“Earth Warriors are the healers and transformational leaders for a more beautiful world. They destabilise the status quo with their innovative attitude and higher consciousness, defying convention and living from the heart…….they seek love as their leader and wisdom as their guide…..they know what is true in their own hearts, and they refuse to be conditioned by mass consciousness into fear, apathy, complacency or overwhelm and despair.
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.”
Phew! Okay my gorgeous bean, I’ve chuntered on enough (if you’ve read this far). Let’s crack on with the reading.
Take a big exhale out through your mouth, let that old energy just flow out of your body. Then a glorious slow inhale through your nose, long and deep – let it fill all the cracks and crevices within you with cooling, soothing darkness. Then exhale with a sigh. Keep breathing this way as you invite into your mind’s eye the sense of release and the sense of a glorious tapestry that is a web connecting us all together. Let this whisper into the cracks and crevices in your being and when you are ready, pick the card or cards that tickle at the edges of your mind.
Did you remember to pick?
Let’s go see, shall we?
CIRCLE CROSS OF TENAN
Rare Intersection of Heaven and Earth
Your plans and purpose are in alignment with greater cosmic forces. Whether you see it coming or not, things will fall into place and what you have been working towards will come to fruition. A rare intersection of heaven and earth will result in a precious manifestation of grace. The Divine shall correct a situation that is in need of realignment. Fear not. Pray boldly and be faithful. All is well.
Your soul is a facilitator of sacred union between the spiritual realms and the earthly worlds. Whether you do this as an artist, a healer, an activist, a priestess or shaman or in some other way, honour your path and your purpose. Take care of yourself and prioritise your spiritual life according to the practices and methods that help you remain open, connected and grounded, with your heart open to Great Spirit and moved by love for our earth.
There are times when heaven and earth align and the power unleashed is considerable. People rally and situations fall into place. As if by a miracle, patience, persistence, effort and energy finally come together and a creation of tangible goodness takes shape in the world. It can be unexpected. You may even have almost given up hope. Then suddenly, everything comes together.
The Circle Cross of Tenan is a sign of such a happening in your world, a moment of powerful grace, where Spirit makes its presence felt upon the earth.

The Spirit Warrior within you needs to feel that your life is dedicated to something meaningful and magnificent, to witness the positive difference that you are creating through your actions. Don’t allow others to stop you from unleashing this beautiful divine masculine spirit power in your mind, your soul and our world. We need you!!
AMUATA
Sage of Higher Knowledge
Seek what feels true, even beyond the logical. If something doesn’t feel right, challenge it and dig deeper. Educate and inform yourself on matters of importance to you. Trust tat your mind is strong and bright enough to do this. Enhance your self-esteem by researching for information and trusting your intuition to help you discern what is useful and true. Have faith in your own mental abilities. If others have criticised you or made you feel inadequate in understanding, cast that off as belonging to the past and not relevant to you now. You will become immune to manipulation by others, who may be convincing but not necessarily accurate or helpful. Trust the power of your mind to receive and recognise the answers that you need. You will find your way.
Test all opinions, advice, research and alleged facts according to your own intuition and instinct. Select that which is helpful for you and notice that which is best case aside, even if just for a time. Seek information and assistance from those that you feel can assist you – and yet place no human advisor above the ultimate, divine authority, which will guide you on how to proceed through a deep inner knowing. There is always new knowledge beyond existing boundaries of thought. We simply need to be open and willing to receive it with patience, discernment and trust in the greater guiding power.
An answer is coming, an important piece of information, and that when you are centred in your heart you will recognise that for what it is and and know how to proceed If you have ever been put down or judged as not being clever enough, or if your intellect has been worshipped and encouraged at the expense of the intuitions of your heart. There are many ways of knowing, and we are all unique in our particular combinations of intellect, instinct, intuition and insight. You have been created exactly as you were meant to be for sacred purpose. The judgement of others – for better or worse – are meaningless.
What matters is that you find your own best way of sensing truth, honouring when something doesn’t feel right and moving forward when something rings true.
Wow! I don’t know about you, but that was an amazing reading. So delicious one, take this gorgeous reading and energy with you as you walk your path this week. Remember to practice loving kindness and a neutral mind. Huge hugs and squeezes and remember to breathe into that glorious heart space! Oh and for all those who have asked if there is going to be a guide for Equinox, you bet! It will come out later this week.
