Happy New Year to you all and welcome to 2012!!!!!!!!!! Hurrah!!!!!!!!!!

So now the end of year festivities have been and gone, we wake on 1st January and find ourselves wondering what on earth will lie ahead for us in this coming year.

There are various theories about 2012 and some people even say that the world will end; take a look at the Hollywood movie that shows natural disaster, epic, global scale. For many this is anticipated as a year of great change and the latter is something that I strongly connect with.

Before I go any further, I would just like to clear something up... my own personal truth does not connect with the world ending and personally believes this to be a load of old tosh… yes there are a lot of theories based on the Mayan calendar that some truly do believe and that is ok, that is their personal truth. I am not discrediting any theories here, it’s just not really relevant to my own personal truth and feelings about 2012, so please don’t think me ignorant here, however, I would just like to say my own understand of the Mayan calendar etc is quite simplistic and is this:

The Mayans studied the planets and had great understanding and knowledge of the cosmos, as many of the ancients did, in some ways, their knowledge is more advanced than our own is today and I see society, maybe turning back to the old ways slightly in the years ahead to come. They kept records of all the planetary alignments and what they recorded for this period was a great shift and change of the energies alignment which differed greatly to the many other years that they had recorded. The saying “As above, so below” for me, explains the Mayan theory. If we have great planetary shifts, it does obviously have some impact on the rest of us here in the solar system, i.e. us here on earth and it is safe to see that in the 2 years leading up to 2012… we have witnessed, some major natural disasters and catastrophes on a global scale that have taken us all by surprise, but for me, I personally believe that this all links in. The world as we know it is changing, the earth’s plates and shifting and in the months and years to come there will be even bigger changes that we will witness… but this is about evolution and for me, that is life, ever changing.

So Mayans aside....

The way I tend to view things is by looking into the numerology and I can do this by adding together the numbers that make up 2012 until I come to a single digit and if you've done the math you will know this to be the number 5.

And there you have it! The year 2012 is a 5 year.

The energy of the 5 for me links with change, flexibility, travel. It also brings in a very dynamic energy and with that comes a lot of opportunities.

If we take the number 5 to the tarot now and in look in the major arcana, we will find that the corresponding card, will be the Hierophant and by delving into the energy and meaning of the Hierophant, it will give us a good indication of what this year will hold for many of us.

Ok so here we have a traditional image of the Hierophant and his themes are as follows:

• Tradition

• Religion

• Spirituality

• Conformity

• Respect

• Establishment

• Ceremony

• Knowledge

• Law

• Values

• Morality

• Education

• Wisdom

• Justice

He is clearly a religious and spiritual man, a teacher and guide for others. He is happy and only too willing to help others along their spiritual path, signposting the way.

He is symbolic of the establishment too and shows us an aspect of conformity here and that things must be just and right.

This man has great wisdom and knowledge, but this is not easily acquired, he has study and also gained some of that wisdom through life experience and this is what makes him so able to help others. He has a presence that commands respect too, but this is respect that is earned I feel. There are no shortcuts here with this man, he does things properly and you can expect grand gestures here. Wedding ceremonies comes to mind, as does graduation and other formalities.

The keys in the picture really stand out for me and with this I see great opportunity. The keys are presented to us and keys naturally allow us to unlock something, be it doors or cases etc, but this holds promise I feel, could even link in with premises for either home or business.

There is a strong sense of legality here too and those of you that are UK based and maybe some of you overseas will also have heard about a very prominent legal case here in the UK, involving the murder of a young man named Stephen Lawrence, all the way back in 1993. This was a vicious, racist attack that took place in London and sadly there were many failings by the police and authorities that prevented the killers of this heinous crime being convicted and brought to justice. The young man mother, a truly remarkable soul fought tirelessly for nineteen years, with several attempts at bringing those who were guilty to justice and now in the year of 2012 justice has finally been served. So now as you look at the themes and energy of the “Hierophant” it really is no surprise that justice has finally been served, in the year of the “Hierophant and “5” year energy… amazing eh!

I feel it is safe to say that we can certainly hope to see more of this energy coming in, great changes, truth being ousted and justice being readily served, how wonderful!

So maybe now armed with all this knowledge, you can look at some of the themes here and maybe see how they might tie in with your life this year in 2012, there is some great food for thought here I feel.

I do hope you have all had a peaceful and joyous start to 2012 and I hope that it continues in the same vain for you all.

Much love and blessings my lovelies!

So today I find myself on the second to last day of the year 2011.

I always feel that this final week is an interesting time. From the 1st of December we enter this phase of magic, excitement and for some even hysteria as Christmas/Yule approaches. Commercially, for many, the build up is all about the big day, that being 25th December, celebrated in the Christian calender as being the birth of Jesus Christ.

So when all of the fesitvities cease, we all slowly lull back to life and routine, in a roundabout, sort of, kind of way. Now what I find most interesting about this period, that week between Christmas and the end of the year is the general sense of nothingness and being idle. It is like a period of limbo almost, where you feel neither here nor there.

For me this energy brings forth lots of contemplation and reflection, which I love. It is good to look back on your journey through the year and consider whether or not it pleased you.

Today whilst idling away the hours in a queue, the thoughts started to come forth and I considered what the year 2011 had taught me.... the first thing that came to mind was "Patience" yep for anyone that knows me, already will know that this is not my strongest point. When this thought came forth, I began to smile widely to myself in the queue, with a sense of spirit laughing, the thought also came that this is one I am still learning too... and patiently I continue to wait!  

The other lesson I feel I have learned to do more easily this year is "Release".

I would say I am a fairly flexible person and not afraid of change on the whole, I am always willing to see the bigger picture, so that is fine.... but for me where release is concerned, I always feel a sense of obligation or duty to others, even when I have been shown that it is time for me to move on, I struggle to let go and say my goodbye's, for a fear of offending or disappointing others perhaps? Maybe I just don't like goodbye? No its certainly not that, I have had my fair share of those, but I guess it is that feeling of a sense of duty and putting others first. 

This year has shown me that perhaps at times I have made too many sacrifices for others and at times need to release situations and in doing so will put myself and my own needs first.... This may sound harsh initially, but it is not intended in that way, but sometimes we remain in situations that stop us from growing mentally, spiritually and emotionally and this links in nicely with the saying " A season, a reason or a life time". 

When we allow situations to linger on needlessly or we hoard and hold on to things that no longer serve a purpose, we are retaining stagnant energies and holding on to what is no longer required.

For the many items, people, places, situations, etc etc released this year, new and better things have come in and taken their place, but this has only occured when I have voluntarily been willing to let them go.

Anyway... enough about me. So a little food for thought there, what do you feel 2011 has taught you? If anything at all?

I feel I have a fairly good sense of what next year will be bringing forth for me lesson wise, but fully I will not know until I live it and that I await and anticipate with great delight, an open heart and open arms!

and on that note I draw this blog to a close.

I wish to thank all the wonderful beautiful souls (friends and customers) that have shared this years amazing journey with me. It has been a pleasure.

I give so much gratitude and love to the Great Spirit and my team of angels, guides and loved ones who have guided me every step of the way and allowed me to serve them daily. I thank my clients for permitting me to do the same

May the closing door of 2011 close quietly and peacefully and I hope that the magical door of 2012 finds you all safe, well, loved and happy!

Love & blessings to you all my dear friends xxxx

Well well well... It really has been a fair old while since I last rambled on in this blog.

The strange thing is I am feeling already out of the habit of writing already after just only two months.. gosh, it makes the saying ring true "if you don't use it, you lose it" Seems like this could certainly be the case!

Well the weather has been delightful here in the UK, you so notice the difference in people's spirit when the sun is shining... people just seem to have a little more time and consideration for others... its beautiful, I love it! Everyone sharing the love and being friendly.

I was lucky enough to spend a little time in Spain last month, a mixture of business and pleasure :)and I have to say, that this is just one place I never seem to tire of! For me, Spain seems to have this really unique energy and vibe. When i'm there, I feel so settled, a little like i've come home. I feel the weather and the landscape plays a huge part in this as it also adds to the laid back culture and attitude of its inhabitants. Most countries worldwide with better climates seem to have a better social structure (this could be the wrong word) I mean people seem to have more time for others. There isn't this crazy dash to go from work to home. Young and old will stop in the street and have a natter, catch up with their neighbours/friends etc. I guess the weather permits for the outdoor culture.

I often wonder what it would be like for me to live abroad in a sunny location. Would daily sunshine and heat drive me crazy? Would I miss the UK drizzly overcast days? Is it not just a case that we always want what we don't have and all the things that we don't have seem so much more desirable?

I guess everything has its appeal in moderation, bringing me to the point of us being fully present and awake in each and every moment... embracing the good and the bad, life is all about the experience!

Love and blessings to you all ♥♥♥ 

Ah... what a wonderful month March is!

Filled with great hope and optimism. The long dark nights are firmly behind us and the daylight hours become longer, filling us with the desire to get outdoors and do more.

The beginning of this month has been rather turbulent on a global scale, with the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. Mother earth demonstrated her power and we were all reminded of the fragility of life. Please take a moment just to pause and shed a thought of healing and love to all those who have crossed over in Japan and to the ones that they have left behind.

The events there were also followed by natural phenomenon of the Super Moon, now that was really something! For me that week was so turbulent on an energy level. The energies were powerful, strong and unsettling, the downside to being a sensitive, you are affected by everything that occurs within the world around you. The moon was the closest to earth for many years, hence the reason why it appeared so large in the sky.

This was a powerful moon for releasing all what had passed and many of us tuned into the energies to do just that.

Energy wise, things have settled down since the full moon and everything is flowing perfectly. There is much more balance and harmony all around. You can sense the need for change and the opportunities arising from this. Spring is like a blank canvas to a artist. It is yours to create whatever you wish.

Don't put off what can be done today, tap into the magical energies of spring and do a little manifesting, start creating and living the life that you truly desire!

Love & blessings to all xx

Well today is the last day of February and it is a case of better late than never, with regard to this blog! 

So have you all delighted in the loving vibes of February? As we all know the 14th February has been hijacked and exploited commercially in the modern age, but perhaps this is not necessarily a bad thing. For those who struggle to express their love freely, I guess this day is a perfect opportunity for them to do so without feeling too self conscious about the act of love!

In Rome in years gone by, the 14th February was a festival of Lupercalia and brought forth an opportunity to celebrate the Goddess of Love ~ Venus. The themes associated with this were love, passion, romance and sexuality, so no surprises there on that front! 

Lupercalia is an ancient predecessor of Valentine's Day and single girls put their names in a box and unmarried men drew lots to see with whom they would be paired off with for the coming year. I have recently heard of similar traditions still being honoured in this day and age too.

I guess it is a shame to some degree that we need a day and a month to remind us of love, as we should be expressing our freely and easily to those whom we care for... as they say, a little bit of love goes a long way!

Love has no boundaries or ideals, it is a pure intention and one of our highest vibrations. When we love we do so in truth and with the purest of intentions and ideals. Sometime we love and lose, which makes us hurt and some of us feel bitter, but then the saying 'It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all' rings very true in my ears. 

I personally feel there are many forms and levels of love and with that love comes understanding, it grows deeper if we let it. In society we are too quick to notice and highlight the difference in others rather than remembering how we are all alike, in the way that we all need to give and receive love in equal measure in order for us to survive and it is true, we are often at our best when we are receiving the love, care and attention we need from someone we love in equal measure.

So keep spreading the love, to friends, foes, family & lovers...

An abundance of love to you all! xx

A belated Happy New Year to you all!

It is great to at last be on the other side of 2010, which is now firmly behind us. A difficult year for many including myself, but now we are faced with new challenges, which I feel are going to be positive.

From the angels perspective & that of numerology 2011 is destined to be a truly great year for many of us. The 1's are all about new beginnings and keeping our thoughts positive & focused on the things we do desire rather than thoughts of what we don't.

This may prove to be difficult for some who are stuck in negative thought processes & resisting the changes that have come & are coming.

For those of you who have made the changes, I feel that this year will be much of a breeze. It is all about manifesting our thoughts into form.

There has been already 2 significant dates within 2011 where the energies have been much stronger than normal, such as the 1.1.11 & 11.1.11. There are also a few more dates to come which include 1.11.11 & 11.11.11. 

With the energies being so powerful on these days it is great time to keep your thoughts positive and literally make a wish for the things that you desire. This can be done by stating it aloud to the universe or visualising the things you desire in your life, view it as though it has already been done. Use these powerful dates to create the future you truly do desire.

On a separate note, with the natural disasters that have occurred of late around the world, the year has started on a similar note to that of 2010, which also saw many natural disasters.

It is sad & frustrating for anyone in the midst of these disasters, but spare a thought for the people who are suffering the ill effects.

It is hard to say why these things happen, but often there is planetary involvement and also the fact that our planet is over populated & under extreme pressure from our lifestyles and our abuse of natural resources.

All I can say is that mother nature knows best & this we have to honour I feel. 

The positive side of these events, if that is at all possible is that they do bring people together. We are suddenly stripped of all our possessions and then material things we all strive for suddenly become insignificant in the midst of such disasters.

It reminds us of who we truly are, our true sole self, born without material things, just body, mind & spirit.

It allows to connect with those around us, reminding us of our likeness in one another rather than our differences.

The most profound acts of kindness occur in the midst of many tragic moments and touches hearts and minds around the world, suddenly making us realise the value of life & those we love.

A little food for thought for us all.

Stay happy, keep smiling & allow yourselves to flow with love, for yourself, those you know & those you do not know.... we are all made in God's likeness.

Blessings to all xx

Well here we are already at the start of the Christmas period and the final days of 2010, woo hoo!

It has indeed been an interesting year for me, not without its difficulties, but nothing that I have been unable to overcome.

I have learned so much about myself in these past 12 months, my strengths & depth of character to name a few. I have grown so much spiritually and I notice how much my view of the world has changed within the past 3 years.

In the process of my difficulties, I have learned a great deal more about the people whom I know & love.  We always feel we know people, but the saying that you never really know someone until you know them, rings very true.

People differ greatly in the face of adversity. The difficulties bring forth our survival instinct, causing priorities to shift as we are thrown in at the deep end.

Some of you may have had a wonderful 2010 whilst others may have had one that they felt was miserable and as a result you long for this year to end.

Either way, whether your experience of 2010 was bad and good, you have to remember that we have all taken something from it, as we do each and every year.

The good times make us thankful for all that we have and all that we are. The bad times allow us to learn and grow. Yes we may resent the experience we had, but we must remember that we were brought to that path of experience for a reason. What doesn't break us can only make us stronger, comes to mind with me right now.

In order for us to fully appreciate the good times, I guess we need to experience some bad, otherwise, how would we ever know the difference?

Take what you can from your experiences this year, it is all a part of the rich tapestry that is life. What may seem a huge obstacle now, will be a tiny lump in your future.

As 2011 approaches, consider this, that the road ahead of you is clear for you to achieve anything that you desire. Participate & be interactive with your future.... It is yours for shaping.

Thank 2010 for all that you have learned & prepare for an even more spiritually richer and abundant year ahead! 

Finally, I wish you all the best for the festive period of Christmas and endless blessings for the New Year ahead... may all your dreams and wishes come true.

I also ask you to spare a thought for those less fortunate at this time, there is great power in a thought, so take the time to send 1 loving thought to someone who may be suffering, this could be their very reason to go on.

Also show a little compassion for others too, be it a stranger or your nearest & dearest. A little love, compassion & understanding can go along way at any time of the year and we can not judge someone until we have walked a mile in their shoes.

Endless love & blessings to you all and much gratitude for all your support & custom in 2010!

So here we are on the last day of November.

This month has been a very mixed bag for me on a personal level. I think that this is always an interesting time of year anyway. We have the changing of the seasons, in the UK we also have the clocks going back at the end of October, which brings with it long dark winter evenings... and in the midst of all this you notice nature shutting down and battening its hatches ready for the long cold months ahead.... perhaps this is why at this time of year we begin to reflect on the many months which have passed.

If you've read my other entries you will know that I lost my father 17th December 2009 which was such a difficult time and I suppose my memories of this time last year were resurfacing, as I tried to recall each detail, but to be honest, this time last year was a complete blur, all I recall are many tears and very sad moments as the family watched my father lose his battle against cancer.

Perhaps the recollections are not such a bad thing, after all this is the 1st year anniversary of his death fast approaching and I suppose it is therapeutic in a way to revisit all those moments and lay some of the sadder ones to rest. As with all monumental events in life, as sad or as painful as they are, they become a part of us and our personality. These events help to shape our changing views and outlook on the world and others and in the midst of all that, I truly do believe that these events help to grow and expand spiritually, which surely is not a bad thing?

So I've dealt with a few ghosts in my closest and had a clear out on an emotional level and physical level, getting rid of the things that no longer serve me. I've taken time out for myself and allowed myself the time to reflect and heal and to be honest, I feel stronger and much happier for it.

I am preparing for the Christmas season now and looking forward to spending time with the family, my intention is to make this the best Christmas possible under the circumstances. It won't be easy, but I truly believe that you get back what you put in, so my thoughts remain positive as ever and I am spiritually a lot lighter in my whole being.

It seems that many people have experienced the turbulent emotions in the past month, which is strongly connected within astrology and the sign of Scorpio. Many of us tiring of our old routines and wanting change, but feeling unable to make them.

What we will now experience is a lifting of the veil, an opportunity to realise the direction we now wish to head in and perhaps a surge of energy to assist us in putting our ideas and thoughts into practice. So do not be afraid to follow those little bits of inspiration that come through every now again, trust that it is divine guidance showing us our way!

and on that note, I shall depart!

Love & blessings xx

Here we are again, drawing towards another magnificent full moon and the end of the month of October.

This month for me has focused very much on the act of forgiveness. This is one of the greatest healing tools which is always at our disposal, but so often under rated & utilised.

The act of forgiveness is something very personal and close to all our hearts and the root of many a situation. It is an act that we are all aware of and know that we need to do, in order to allow ourselves to fully move forward, but in all honesty, in the real world, it can be one of the hardest things we have to do.

It can partly depend on what you are forgiving someone for? We all have our own personal reasons, some we would rather not disclose. Some so terrible we dare speak and others minor, but cut very deep. Often it is when someone has violated us, taken advantage of us or abused our trust, hurt us in some way that we wouldn't expect.... it usually something which cuts so deep it hurts when we even think about it.

Whatever it is and I totally understand how hard it is, there always comes a time when we should let go and embrace forgiveness. We can give forgive ourselves or others, but the healing which takes place when we do so, is so deep and profound that it is sometimes hard to convey in words alone.

To forgive is to let go of the past, to allow your heart to heal and mend, to let go of the emotional baggage so many of us carry around.

My own experience with forgiveness this month has brought about such deep, personal & profound changes within me, my family, my life, my whole being!

Energetically, I am vibrating now at a far higher frequency, as I have made the choice to leave the emotional baggage behind, let my heart heal and mend and also embrace my future fully.

The time for me was right to do this. Perhaps this is not the time that you yourself are ready to do it, but please, don't overlook it, forgiveness heals on such a deep level, that it is something we must all do and embrace to fully allow ourselves the chance to move forward.

Love & blessings to you all...
