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.

New Moon in Aries, and what an Interesting Week it’s been!

Jenny Heston · 1:00 am ·

Happy, Magickal, Mysterious, Marvelous, Melodic, Manifesting, Merry Monday! How are you my most delicious lovely?

It’s been a heck of a week and the world as a whole is reeling with what is happening. Turn on any news, open a paper, talk to anyone and it’s all about Corona Virus. Which is why this post is not going to be about that. Not because I’m being an ostrich, more a case of believing heart and soul that we need to find new tools, laugh and find ways of resiliency to help us feel calm, aligned, grounded and strong. Yes? And saying thank you to all the amazing people like first responders, health care workers, grocery store clerks whomever, who is still showing up even though they would rather be safe and at home. Life as we know it has changed and we need to find a way through into something more sustainable, aligned and that benefits the whole!

As many of you know on Friday I sent out a link to a lovely community that I was told very clearly to create. Light, Love and Laughter. And as many of you know the link didn’t work, after digging and researching we found it is because the group is set to private. Why private? So that we can be real, raw and rare – share our gifts, shine our lights and have those deep conversations. So if you want to join us (we have gone from 1 on Friday lunchtime to about 250 by Sunday lunchtime). Send me a message and somehow we will figure out how to add you.

Okay, Tuesday we have a glorious New Moon in Aries, whoot!!! The Aries New Moon is typically one of the best for manifesting, setting intentions, and planting seeds. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and New Moons signal the start of a new lunar cycle, so there is strong energy for new beginnings and fresh starts. Plus the fact that we have Saturn moving into Aquarius, wowzer! All of this energy is already sending intense waves out into the cosmos and the New Moon will heighten all of this, plus bring a little of its own energy too.

As Forever Conscious shares: “Under all of this fiery Aries energy, we may feel wound up or extra emotional if we don’t give ourselves a healthy outlet to express it. Be mindful of allowing your emotions to boil over and try to act from a place of calm and ease. Take your time, think things through, and don’t be impulsive.

Interestingly, this New Moon falls at 4 degrees of Aries, which has been a trend. Back in February, the New Moon was at 4 degrees Pisces, in January the New Moon was at 4 degrees of Aquarius, in December, the New Moon Eclipse was at 4 degrees of Capricorn. In 2020, we are also in a number 4 year according to numerology.

In a number 4 year, we are called to return to the self and to find ways to create safety, comfort, and purpose from within.

4 represents feeling at home within ourselves, and it definitely seems this is a trend for many of us right now.

In astrology, 4 degrees of Aries is actually a very spiritually sensitive degree of the zodiac. It indicates advanced psychic energies and the ability to ascend to higher realms while remaining grounded.

At this time we can all deepen our connection with Spirit and use it as a tool to connect with who we are and what we can do to feel more at home within ourselves.

The Aries New Moon is always a wonderful time to set intentions for the year ahead but rather than telling Spirit and the Universe what you want, why not instead, open your heart to receive what Spirit and the Universe want from you?”

How can you become a vessel for Spirit? How can you allow Spirit to take the lead in your life and show you the way forward?

Sometimes one of the most powerful intentions we can set is to surrender to the Divine, Source, the Universe, or whatever we want to call it, and just allow it to show us the way to the perfect new beginnings for our soul.

What glorious energy to shine some light through the veil of fear that is pervading everything. This is where I highly, highly, highly suggest you give yourself some time and do the New Moon Bowl Ritual. It’s easy, it’s free and it’s powerful as it takes your intentions and puts actions to them.

When I went to the cards to ask who wanted to guide this week I was so thrilled to see it was the Earth Warrior Oracle, as now more than ever we need to become Warriors of Light, Love and Laughter. Now if these guides are new to you please let me introduce them as it would be rude not to! 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.”

Oh my gosh I am smiling so much now as they are positively perfect for this moment in time. And then interestingly enough they insisted on 4 cards for this week!

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled and bounced up and down to join in and support are:- Morganite – cleanses the emotional body of stress and anxiety, old wounds and hidden traumas, and enkindles lightness within the spirit, as if a burden has been lifted and released. K2 – enhances one’s discernment, a stone of deep insight. Clear Quartz – is known as the stone of power and amplifies any energy or intention. Rhodonite – a glorious stone of forgiveness and one of the most powerful heart chakra stones. The glorious little flowers that came to join, I have no clue what they are. They grow on a tree near me and smell divine!

Woosah, let’s settle in shall we? Breathe, gorgeous one, deep into your belly and let it expand all the corners. See your roots going down into the earth and connecting with the Divine Mumma and pulling glorious healing energy up through your roots and letting it dance through your body. There is a gorgeous guided visualisation to help you ground, connect with the Divine and breathe if you feel inclined.

When you are ready, pick the card or cards that tug for you, invite you in.

Shall we go see?

LINA

What Must Be, Shall Be

You have beautiful dreams and inspired, bold ambitions. You are guided to believe that they are a natural expression of your soul, something that is meant to be. Life will support you in the expression of those dreams and ambitions, even in the moments where it seems to be struggle rather than support, that you are experiencing. The process for transformation into full maturity involves learning how to grow through light and through darkness back to the light again. You will always find your way back to the light. Have faith in yourself and what must be. Dedicate yourself to what you love without hesitation.

If you are experiencing loss or change, have faith. Sometimes things happen that seem to working against us. It is only later that they show themselves to have been valuable ways by which we acquired the greater faith, courage and determination that were necessary to the fulfilment of our purpose.

Know that your destiny is unfolding, and you are moving through circumstances that are ultimately going to help you become your soul in fullness and splendour. Keep going. Everything happening in your life is helping you to fulfil your divine potential.

Sometimes this can be confronting. To give up old ways or old identities can seem frightening to the mind. Yet it is inspiring and exciting for the soul that yearns to blossom into fullness and cannot thrive when it is held back in fear.

If you are a visionary with ideas that are not yet widely understood, but will help push humanity towards the new world, you may struggle more than most. In this cse, you are asked to take leaps of faith and endure the endings inherent in evolution whilst waiting for the signs of new life.

Know that any darkness will give way to the light.

CHAKANA

Time to Cross the Threshold

Threshold appears, bringing an ending so complete that it is no longer possible to return to what has been. The light of the star is your faithful guide into this new world. S you trust in your divine connection, deconstructed forms shall reshape themselves into relevant, helpful and beautiful new ways of living, thriving and expressing your true self.

Trust in your strangest ideas, in that which is different, inspired or unconventional. This crossing is healing and futhers the activation of your divine potential.

Change is afoot. You won’t feel in control of the process. Trust in what is new, different or exciting to you. Don’t assume that unless all things happen easily, then you must be on the wrong path. You are on the correct path, even if the birthing pains to fulfil it are challenging. You are guided to reject societal norms about how you are supposed to live or what sort of things you are supposed to value.

Instead, trust your own values and believe in the truths that you feel within your own heart. In time the world will be ready to recognise and benefit from your spiritual growth. The Universe is helping you in all ways, including through correct timing. At the right moment, you will leave the past behind you and enter into the fullness of the present moment, opening up to the brightness of a new future.

IXCHEL

Medicine of the Rainbow Jaguar

Ixchel protects you now, as you transition from one life phase to the next. With her rainbow light, this guardian goddess instructs you on how to use great power with wisdom, to nourish only what is worthy. Using Jaguar medicine, with perfect timing, she confronts that which is unworthy of her devotion, eradicating destructive forces and creating space for healing relief and rebirth. Her presence is the wild power of the jaguar, the renewal promise of the rainbow and divine feminine creativity. All darkness shall be overcome.

You are going through a transition. Cultivate hope and stay true to your intentions. Let nothing divert you from your true path. If you have a new project, vision or lifestyle that you are seeking to bring into the world, Ixchel is guiding and guarding you for a healthy birth.

It is important that you cut off negative sources completely at this time and do not allow yourself to be used or exploited. This is not the time to indulge someone else’s ego or go against your own inner knowing in order to give someone the benefit of the doubt. Trust your instincts and break immediately from what isn’t right for you. This will bring you new opportunities and situations that are worthy of your passionate devotion.

CH’ASKA

Star of Venus

Ch’aska, Star of Venus, supports an inner shift to higher consciousness. Whether or not you consider yourself to be financially skilful, part of your sacred power and purpose includes the healing of economic and financial matters in your own life and the world. You are meant to experience abundance, creating and sharing prosperity from a place of inner spiritual security. A healing liberation from poverty consciousness allows the Universe to work through you more easily without the obstruction of negative conditioning.

You are being guided to give up false shame of not having enough, or guilt for having too much. Your true worth is a matter of soul and has nothing to do with material things. As you relax and acknowledge the love that the Universe has for you, your material reality will unfold with grace and divine support.

Financial healing is indicated. Let go of fear and trust unconditionally that the Universe is supporting you. What brings you a sense of joy, purpose and passionate devotion? Focus on that. Believe in your ability to thrive by being and expressing your authentic self. Notice how you relax into flow and more easily attract what you need when you acknowledge that the Universe wants you to flourish through being you. Focus on putting your beautiful beliefs out into the world, not in consuming the negativity or fear of others. Give of your spirit abundantly!

Oh my gosh! You seriously can’t make this stuff up – what glorious cards for this week ahead! So my delicious lovely, I wish for you a week of health, light, healing and calm. May you and your family/friends be well and be blessed. In the words of Brene Brown – This pandemic experience is a massive experiment in collective vulnerability. We can be our worst selves when we’re afraid, or our very best, bravest selves. In the context of fear and vulnerability, there is often very little in between because when we are uncertain and afraid our default is self-protection. We don’t have to be scary when we’re scared. Let’s choose awkward, brave, and kind. And let’s choose each other.

I choose you.

Big Hugs and Squeezes,

Love and Fear. Equinox bundles are Here!

Jenny Heston · 1:01 am ·

Happy Magickal, Manic, Marvellous, Melding, Meaningful, Mindful March Monday! How are you gorgeous one? As we are all aware, this has been a crazy, panic loaded week for a lot of people. I mean seriously, just turn on the news and it’s enough to make you want to curl up in bed with 30 books!

Talk about a huge portion of the population going down the rabbit hole! Which to be honest, I most certainly did on Thursday. Why? I have spent weeks creating two glorious Equinox bundles for you (one for the Northern Hemisphere and one for the Southern) that help you align, flow, delight, embrace the sacred, ignite desires and step into all your are. As Equinox is this Thursday the 19th in the Northern Hemisphere, and on the 20th in the Southern.

Wednesday night I looked at these gorgeous creations, each over 30+ pages long, packed with deliciousness and an amazing guided visualisation, smiled in glee and went and had a cuppa. When I came back they were gone! The laptop had crashed and I hadn’t saved them to Dropbox! WTF!

Thursday morning after not sleeping I dragged my sorry arse out of bed and thought “fuck it” I will go work at the local grocery store, and as I popped the kettle on I inadvertently turned on the news and went even more into that energy and got dragged down into the sink hole of fear. Should I rush out to buy 40 packs of toilet paper? Then the winds picked up to 90km an hour and it felt like the apocalypse was here!

What to do? Go for a walk and swear at every tree, which I did. Go buy cheesy bunny pasta and gobble it all up, which I did. And during all this I reminded myself that I live, eat, breathe and love what was in those bundles, on a day to day basis. I walk my talk. So I came home, sat my arse down and with an iPad wrote, and wrote, and wrote. 40 hours later Ostara and Mabon bundles are even better than before!

But why did I bother, why not buy into the fear and the energy of failure? Because for me to create something that delights, inspires, that is full of alchemy and manifestation, nourishes, heals, guides and supports ALL of us to embrace a sparkling life, our strengths, our magickal gifts, our soul, to live purposefully and with ease is my purpose! I’m pretty clear about that. I even did FB live on Friday (which you know I’m not a huge fan of) as to me even more so now, this was important.

In my world I show up and shine my light as far as the Divine see’s fit! And to be blunt, I love, love, love what I do.

So this got me to thinking about Love and Fear and I remembered A Course in Miracles talking to this point. You can’t have Love and Fear inhabit the same space. Read that again. As the course says: “Every thought you think, word you speak, and action you take proceeds from either your true nature or a distorted illusion. Innocence and guilt, peace and upset, healing and illness all spring from that one fundamental choice.

At various times during the day, especially if you become upset or you face a challenging situation or decision, ask yourself, ‘What is the voice of fear or guilt saying to me now?’. Clearly identify the words and energy of the critical voice. Then ask, ‘What would the voice of love, kindness and encouragement say to me by contrast?’. When you recognise the energetic difference between the harsh demanding voice and the gentle releasing voice, you will clearly see what to do and how to live.”

So what I’m saying is that at this time in space, and with all that is happening. It is VITAL that we be kind and loving with ourselves and with others! I have gone into grocery stores where the energy is one of panic and frenetic “mine, mine” – for goodness sakes I watched a woman buy 25 squash this morning! Why? Because she had to know that SHE was okay. But what about her neighbour? What about the elderly gentleman living down the street from you that smiles when you walk by? What about the young mumma with 3 wee ones under 6? This is a time to connect! To connect to source, earth, yourself and to others. To beam love and light! Pick up the phone, write a letter, make some soup, smile at someone – be kind, beam love and trust.

Do you remember an old kids cartoon called the Care Bears? They each had a symbol on their chubby bellies; love, friendship, fearless, kindness etc. And when they met a challenging situation or someone who was struggling they used to say “Care Bears Unite” and they would beam all that energy towards the other.

We need to be Care Bears. Look in the eyes of the person who is buying 40 cans of shitty soup and smile, show them they are seen. Share what you have. Be kind. Remember, Love and Fear can not inhabit the same space. Which one would you rather be breathing in hourly? We are all in the delicious, crazy journey of life together – reach your hand out to offer help or to ask for help. Both will be there.

Okay, now I gently step off my soap box.

When I went to the cards and asked who wanted to share this week I nearly cried. What perfect guides for this time. Blessed Be. Please let me introduce you to Blessed Be as these guides may be new to you. “May these cards and guides offer you ways to enter into deeper appreciation of your life and its manifold blessings. May you have hope, understanding and kindness. And most of all, may you know deep within your soul, that thou art blessed.”

Oh my gosh, positively perfect.

The crystals that wiggled and jiggled are Rose Quartz – is the stone of universal love. It restores trust and harmony in relationships, encouraging unconditional love. Rose Quartz purifies and opens the heart at all levels to promote love, self-love, friendship, deep inner healing and feelings of peace. Amethyst – is a powerful and protective stone. It guards against psychic attack, transmuting the energy into love and protecting the wearer from all types of harm, including geopathic or electromagnetic stress and ill wishes from others. Amethyst is a natural tranquiliser. And last but not least Carnelian – restores vitality and motivation, and stimulates creativity. It gives courage, promotes positive life choices, dispels apathy and motivates for success. Carnelian is useful for overcoming abuse of any kind. It helps in trusting yourself and your perceptions.

And the petals came from my “Unicorn” rose that the ocean gifted me with the other day!

So let’s settle in shall we? I invite you to gently come back into your body and into the present moment. Just here, just now. 10 minutes ago is gone, 10 minutes to come hasn’t happened. Just breathe and be here. Let your breathing gently slow and roll your shoulders up and back to release the tension there. And in your minds eye I invite you to see a golden orb of light, this is the light of Blessing, just for you. Breathe that in and smile.

If you want more support I have a delicious guided visualisation for you.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go look?

A BLESSING ON YOUR DAY

A blessing to bring awareness, to shape and set the energy of the day, and to frame it with light and the possibilities of healing, adventure and gratitude.

May your soul feel called by the song of the day. May this day be gentle and good, clear and sure, filled with grace and gentle reminders of your own divinity. May the people you meet this day show generosity of spirit, be hospitable and welcoming, and open and candid in all their dealings.

May the sky be filled with blue and white, may the green beneath your feet be solid and soft to walk upon. May the rain fall soft and nourishing, and trees whisper to you the secrets that you need to know.

My any challenges you encounter find an answering strength and courage within you, and when you come to your rest this night, may you remember the many blessings this day held, and account for them with the Gods, and be thankful for each of them, no matter how small.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING FOR PEACE OF MIND

A blessing to help soothe the mind at storm with itself, and bring about calm and peace once again.

When you awaken, and trouble is sitting there, with you, right on your shoulder, speaking to you of all you must fret and be fearful of, let this blessing come to you, and be felt truly in your mind, where the turbulence has reigned for too long now.

Let the quiet of the natural day steal in, let the soft call of your spirit whisper to you that you have worried too long, and that it is time to set down your burden and let the angels and spirit beings deal with what cannot be unravelled by the labyrinth of thought.

Let it go, and let it be, for it is not for you to do what others will not, cannot, or remain ignorant of. It is for you now, to care for you. Let peace, that quiet blessing, softly take up residence in your mind, and speak calming words to you, soothing every objection your mind at war with the world creates.

Let the nurturing of the Mother, the planet herself, who loves you so and cares so much for you, take hold, and take root within your mind. Let yourself do only what must be done this day, and be very kind and very gentle all this time with yourself.

Speak softly, remove yourself from anything that provokes the disquiet unnecessarily, and calm yourself through the taking of moments to soothe yourself. Let your mind release, one by one, those terrible thoughts that have tortured you. Let your body relax, and move, and in the movement free yourself from the stress and tension. Let the idea of being at war with the world, isolated and alone, go, and for a time, seek out only those who show kindness and sensitivity to you.

Be patient with yourself, and in this patience, let the blessing of deep peace be yours.

BLESSED BE

A BLESSING OF FORGIVENESS

A blessing to be able to be free of the burden of grudges and vengeance, a prayer to help you open up to the blessing that is forgiveness.

Forgiveness is a tricky beast – and yes, for all it is a gentle word, it is a great beast, forgiveness. For when we seek to forgive, we must wrestle with the wrongdoing that lies at the heart of our resistance to let go of the pain we are holding on to. When we need to forgive, it is often that we are too raw, too far away from justice to be able to even touch the sides of the balm of forgiveness.

Yet staying angry for long periods of time can develop into a compacted bitterness, and bitterness is a gall to all who wish to live freely. It is a struggle to forgive, when we are in the midst of the fallout of another person’s actions. There is a great deal of victim-blaming within our cultures, but in older times, in the Celtic world, there was restorative justice and it would have gone a long way to forgiveness.

May the blessing of this self-forgiveness be bestowed upon you now, dear friend. Know you will gently untangle the doubt and the recriminations that have settled like thorns about your heart, and invaded your mind’s peace. And as you begin to forgive yourself, you will also begin to find forgiveness for the injustices you have endured. For in that forgiveness, and acceptance, and ability to know clearly that wrongdoing was done, you will begin to return to yourself.

You will be wiser, yet unpoisoned. Slowly, may the pain and the bitter buds wither, and in their place may you be reborn – honestly able to remember, wiser, in order to prevent this event taking place again, and able to recall, without pain. And the justice that the Universe will deliver to you will be restorative – bringing back to you threefold what was taken by another. May you be free of the pain, at last.

Let the anger burn down into coals from which you, phoenix-like, can arise. And know you have forgiven – forgiven the other for their dark gift. Forgiven life.

And most of all, delivered the pure medicine of forgiveness to yourself.

BLESSED BE

Pause, Play and Welcome to the Year of the Golden Rat!

Jenny Heston · 11:23 pm ·

Happy Miraculous, Meaningful, Melody Making, Magnificent, Marvelous, Majestic, Manifesting Monday! How was your New Moon? Did you celebrate the wonderful Lunar New Year where we now enter the Year of the Golden Rat! Whoot! I am so excited, as Rat energy is good for my animal!

I went and bought a huge box of the cutest little tangerines with stalks and leaves on them. Picked up 30 red envelopes from the Chinese grocery store downtown and then filled them with 2 loonies each (as you always have to work with an even number). I then spent a good chunk of the day delivering them to family, friends, neighbours and even random people lol, a little red envelope with money in it and oranges. A sceptic friend pointed out that I wasn’t Chinese; so why bother? Because it’s fun! Because it’s wishing others good fortune and a great Lunar New Year, because it makes me smile, laugh and raises my vibration to share, gift and PLAY! (Note that word as we are going to do a little exploring this week, yes?)

Last year one of the phrases I kept hearing was “I’m so busy,” No shit! Everyone is. We live in a society where we are more connected by technology than ever and like Pavlov’s dogs we jump when the cell phone goes off or there is a “bing” as the 90th email of the day comes flooding into our inbox. We rush from this event to that event and then collapse into bed at night clutching the medal of “Being Busy and Overwhelm” to our chests as we check our phones one last time before drifting off into an exhausted sleep. Then as the alarm goes off in the morning we reach for our phones to quickly scroll through social media. Seriously?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not judging, I’m just observing and speaking as someone who has done that.

But what if there was a better way? What if you gifted yourself with the time to Pause and Play? When I suggested that to someone a few weeks ago they looked at me askance and said “Jenn, I don’t have time for that and there is no purpose.” Ahhhh, grasshopper that’s where you are wrong. Taking time daily to PAUSE, to just BE, to not be doing, lowers your heart rate, calms your adrenal system, soothes the mind (eventually) and more importantly it allows space for your wise self to share with you, to be heard. Now I’m not talking hours, or even half an hour – unless you want to. I’m talking 10 minutes perhaps. It could be sitting on your front porch with a cuppa tea. It could be perched on a log in the woods, it could be curled up on your sofa looking out of the open curtains at the night sky. It’s that time where you gift yourself a bit of space and listen. Think about it, when you listen to great music, there is a pause – yes? When you read a book, there are pauses between the paragraphs and chapters – yes? When you take that deep soothing breath in, then hold for a few seconds prior to exhale – it’s the place of the pause. The place of playing in the infinite field of possibilities is in the pause.

Now let’s look at the PLAY aspect.

Have you ever walked down the street with a small child? They jump in the puddles, are fully engrossed with the worm they have found and notice the most random things that we, as adults, blow past – as we are busy, right? They are in the moment. They are playing and radiate joy like massive sun beams! If you’ve ever owned a dog and taken them out for a frolic, they are a fabulous teacher for being in the moment and playing full out. There’s a stick, there’s a ball, there’s someone to run with, what’s that smell, chase that bird, roll in that deliciously stinky thing, chew on a log. They aren’t worried about the future, they aren’t moaning about the past they just are! Now I’m not saying be a dog or act like a small child, but I am saying do something every day that brings you Joy, feels fun and makes you feel good! Why? Because it gives you a glorious release of dopamine which is great for your brain, it makes you smile, which causes the people around you to smile (or think you have lost your mind), boosts your immune system, rejuvenates and replenishes you and raises your vibration to attract to you more of what you WANT!

An example, I love to dance. I will dance in the kitchen when I’m cooking and now when I take the doggo out for a late night walk I have great soundtrack on and I dance for about 3 km. Does it make me laugh, heck yes. Does it feel good, heck yes. Do I look daft, oh gosh yes! But who cares. Whatever it is that makes you smile, laugh and have fun – do it every day and watch what happens.

I had a friend visit on the weekend who had bypassed her inner wise wisdom due to “feeling busy and overwhelmed” and was in a challenging head space, dealing with some life blips and quite fragmented. So after listening, making sure she was fed I invited her to come for a yomp with me. “I’ve so much to do, I don’t know……blah, blah, blah.” But she trusts me enough to know that when I suggest something to at least try it out. So off we went, I pointed out the eagles, the rainbow, the hummingbird, cracked jokes, danced next to her and I had even brought chalk! So we made some lovely pictures on the walkway and her shoulders started to drop down and there were smiles galore. I chased a peacock trying to get it to gift me a tail feather and she laughed her soxs off. We sat on a driftwood log embracing the sun and the waves flooding in. By the time we got back to the house (a whole 30 minutes!) Her mood, her vibration where deliciously high and she was laughing. Also, in that time we had nattered about creative solutions to the blips she was facing and because she was in the energy of fun and play she could hear them!

So I have an invitation for you. Are you willing to gift yourself with 5 minutes minimum of just BEING and breathing and doing one thing every day that makes you laugh and is fun? What have you got to lose?

I’ve been playing with this practice for a month now and have to say it drags me out of the blaugh, and I feel fabulous. It also brings up creative solutions, my intuition is higher and more importantly I am laughing daily (even if it is at myself lol).

Okay, enough chuntering on – but I’m serious about the invitation. Try it for 21 days and see what changes for you, for those around you and more importantly watch how delicious you feel!

So when I went to the cards and asked who would like to guide and share this week I grinned and laughed. The gorgeous Lightworker Oracle guides chose to show up and shine. The perfect guides to help you embrace your light, raise your vibration, pause, play and shine!!!

Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them:- This deck is for lightworkers and what I mean by that is old souls. They have an interest in being of service. They want to live a life of passion and purpose and have their life mean something at a spiritual level. They care about causes that stir their hearts. They are often the black sheep of their family. Does this sound like you? I know it does for me.

The crystals that wanted to show and shine are:- Angelite– brings serenity, inner peace, and a sense of calm, and it’s excellent to use with overwhelming stress. Rhodochrosite – opens the heart, lifting depression and encouraging a positive and cheerful outlook. It improves self worth and soothes emotional stress. Aragonite – helps relieve stress and anger bringing you patience when it is needed most.

Also,the gorgeous snowdrops and daisies wanted to come and share their light and they are happily ensconced in a vase on my table now.

So sweet pea, just breathe yourself back into your body. One slow deep breath, then exhale after another. Allow yourself to bring to mind what does the pause and the play look like for you, what do you want it to look like? As you breathe that idea into your being, just notice it, let it play in your minds eye.

Then when you are ready, pick the card or cards that whisper, tug or invite you in.

Did you remember to pick?

Shall we go have a look?

ORBS OF LIGHT

The spiritual worlds are delivering a message to you. You may have already heard it, through telepathic reception, and mistaken it for your own thought. Yet it is inspired by your higher guidance, those spiritual beings that love you without condition. It is an answer to a question and guidance to increase your happiness.

It is possible to pray without realising it. The Universe is lovingly listening to every thought and feeling in your heart and mind. When you intentionally speak to the Universe and ask your higher guidance to help you with an issue, this is a powerful way to call the light into your life. It works. Often quite rapidly! However, sometimes we ask for help without being so aware of doing so. Worrying about an issue or pondering a question are ways this happens.

There are orbs of light around you. They are spiritual beings that love you. These orbs contain information and energies that help answer questions – and worries – through the intelligence and love of the higher spiritual worlds. That information might come through a song, a phrase, a feeling or a colour or symbol that unlocks awareness in the deeper recesses of your mind and body.

To access the information of these orbs of light, to be open to seeing them more clearly, whether directly with your own energetic vision through clairvoyance, or through photographs or other means, do so.

Unconditional loving orbs are available to you at every moment, open your heart and invite them in.

INITIATION BY WATER

Situations have been rising in your world that evoke emotional reactions and challenge your opinions and beliefs. You may not feel in control. You may feel like your world, your own emotions, have become like a stormy sea in which you are tossed about – and you are doing your best not to drown in the chaos. Yet you are not to fear it. It is stirring that which has been held within so it can be released. The storm will pass and the waters of your emotions shall become more serene.

You could compare the process to a glass of water with muddy sediment at the bottom. The water appear clear as the mud is left to lie. Yet once that water gets stirred up, the mud rises. Then it can be filtered out, and the water will be clearer than ever before. The turbulence was a step that led to greater clarity.

The waters in the glass are comparable to your emotional waters. And the fixed opinions, beliefs or long-held emotional patterns based on unresolved past pain are the sediment at the bottom of the glass. Hold the glass up to the light. Can the light shine through the sediment? No. But it can be seen through the clear water. Remove the sediment, and the water will be clear enough to allow light to shine through without obstruction or distortion. The light is the light of Spirit, of higher truths, unconditional love, of peace, wisdom and joy.

UNPLUG FROM MASS CONSCIOUSNESS

There is a belief system based on fear, doubt and distrust this is known as “mass consciousness”. It says it is safer to stay with the crowd, not to question what you have been taught. It says you can’t trust the Divine to take care of your financial well being or your emotional needs. It says you should be afraid and not take risks. Its says that if you dare to stand up and live your truth, you’ll be lost and alone, humiliated, rejected or even destroyed.

You are being guided to unplug from that systems of beliefs. You are capable of a more creative, loving and soul-satisfying way of living. To access this, let go of the way that is too small for your soul!

You are brave and aware enough to think outside the box, beyond what society or your peers may consider ‘normal’. You are supposed to be questioning things right now. You are in a transition from one way of thinking to another, opening up to a new world which you can trust enough to live with peace and happiness because of the upgraded new beliefs you are cultivating.

No matter how others may resist or criticise your choices (perhaps your new ideas take you away from the world they feel comfortable in), your higher guidance encourages you to keep opening your mind to a more loving, higher reality.

Sometimes breaking from the accepted norm, doing things differently or being considered weird to family, colleagues and friends is a sign that you are breaking away from the consciousness of the masses, which is not compatible with your own higher frequency consciousness.

So keep unplugging yourself, one layer, thought, word and deed at a time, from that which the mass consciousness would have you buy into – more stuff, more fear, more competition, more doubt and more suffering. You can challenge any thoughts you don’t want to have. Free yourself. You have the power to change your world and the world we live in as a result, on liberating thought at a time.

Wow! Okay, there we have it. Lots to encourage us to step up and shine! So my delicious lovely I wish for you an amazing week filled with the pause time and the play time. May you give your wise inner voice time to actually speak, and more importantly to be heard and may you laugh like a 3 year old having their tummy tickled! Huge hugs and squeezes.
