SPECIAL OFFER: High Heart Chakra Clearing & Activation Course SPECIAL OFFER: Banishing & Blessing Tantric Shamanic Ritual Intensive JOIN THE MAYASTAR MAILING LIST Read the Week-Ahead Energy Update with Daily Law of Attraction Affirmations… PREVIOUS DIRECTORY 17th May 2026…Welcome back to the blog! We've had some chilly spring weather here in the UK - but I'm not complaining! The showers have made the garden greener, and the cooler weather gave me an excuse to keep wearing my favourite winter fleece. This week has been powerful for ritual work - the opening of the Killing Moon Cycle, followed by the opening for the Bringing Moon Soul Retrieval 30-Day Ritual Intensive last night, coinciding with the New Moon. And this week's special offer for the Banishing/Blessing Intensive promises more shifts and transformations are in the offing. I've been busy sorting out some admin stuff with music distribution this week, and also made a start on recording my weekly energy updates for the podcast in a new format. It's weird but in the last few years, I've had to deal with more technical issues than ever before in the 22 years since I started this work! The main culprit seems to be Windows 11 - it's made updating my website slower, creating music temperamental, and recording the podcast hit and miss! But I'm pleased to report I've resolved some of the issues over the last couple of weeks. And the new format for the energy readings will be coming up in June - so stay tuned. Energy-wise, I've been working with a combination of modalities over the last 2 weeks. My morning sessions are back to Kundalini Reiki sessions, followed by grounding with the Earth Energy Boost (Ascension Gateway Upgrade); and in the evening after I've finished my Temple Work, I do a meditation/healing session while I do my Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) - and I leave this one open so I can choose the energy I feel most drawn to that night. So, if I'm feeling too energised but want to wind down for sleep, The Crystal Rose is the energy frequency I tend to connect with - but I've felt drawn to the Whispers of the Goddess Series: Melusine Dragon Power system more often this week because I've been working the Melusine Dance of Mystery and Magick Tantric Shamanic Ritual for clients - and my Temple Work often leads me to connect more deeply with those energies I'm working with magickally. So, with the Banishing/Blessing Ritual Intensive offer this week, it could be quite varied! This intensive includes 6 Tantric Shamanic Rituals that connect with different deities - including Lakshmi, Aradia, Shiva and Kali. You can read more about it here... I hope you all have a magickal week - and that the blessings the Universe intends for you today will manifest swiftly and smoothly XX Bright blessings, Maya XXX 1st May 2026…Welcome back to the blog! And to the start of a special month. Today is Beltane or May Day - the Celtic fire festival that marks the beginning of summer. It's meant to be the only day of the year you can bring hawthorn blossoms into your home without incurring bad luck! And at this time of year we celebration fertility, abundance and bring ourselves into alignment with our highest potential by leaping over the bel-fire (literally or figuratively). The bel-fire was lit to burn away all negativity, dispelling bad spirits and allowing us the opportunity to leave the past behind, and move forward in our lives unencumbered. At this time of year, you may want to spend some time reflecting on what you can release in order to create space for your blessings to manifest. Maybe you do this by clearing out your wardrobe, donating some stuff to charity shops, or perhaps it's more of an inner observation where you decide it's time to stop criticising yourself, and time to fill that space with positive affirmations (such as those I share each day across my social media! - You'll find links at the bottom of this page). However you choose to discard the drag factors and embrace the elevated path, the seasonal tides are supporting you in your growth. As such, from tomorrow, newsletter subscribers (subscribe here...) will receive an exclusive offer for the Goddess Freya Brisingamen Ritual Intensive - a series of 6 tantric shamanic rituals focused on manifesting abundance, prosperity, golden good fortune and happiness. It's a high frequency working that paves the way to success and allows the blessings the Universe intends for you to manifest fully - and fast! I look forward to working this ritual on behalf of my clients - it's always a transformational intervention! X Tonight is the Full Flower Moon - made all the more potent by the Beltane tides - and I'll be performing the opening ceremony for the Luring Moon Abundance Alignment 30-Day Ritual Intensive. And I'll be working the Luring Moon cycle for myself and my household tonight - and for the next cycle which is a Blue Moon at the end of the month (this will be another exclusive offer for newsletter subscribers - so make sure you subscribe to be notified!). This period - from Beltane to the Summer Solstice is the most potent period of growth and energy for manifesting we encounter across the entire Wheel of the Year! Traditionally, the energy at this time is so powerfully bright, light and high frequency that the Wild Hunt doesn't run during this time. The focus is very much of life, movement, progress, healing, relationships, success and joy! The Luring Moon is a powerful ritual intensive where the spell is worked every night for a period of 30 days (a full lunar month), which means the energy builds upon itself - the effect is cumulative and the energy is very concentrated - which means it has a greater sphere of influence than other types of working. It also focuses the energy on strengthening existing positive karmic connections - so it builds upon what's already good, as well as increasing opportunities for new areas of growth, healing and happiness in your life. I love working with these energies and am blessed to be able to offer these potent magickal interventions to my clients - all around the world! So at this time of year, I'm really feeling the power of season. In other news...I'm feeling honoured this year because we have pigeons nesting in the hazel tree in our garden. They're very cute - taking turns at keeping the nest warm while the other one flies around bringing back twigs and fluff to get everything "just right". I have to walk past them a few times each day when I replenish the bird garden - I can see them peeking out and watching me! Again, super cute. They chose a high traffic area - right next to the bird feeder, bird table and bird bath - but at the same time, they have all the amenities! And they also have me and the dogs to keep an eye on marauding magpies etc. I hope they'll have a successful year too. They're certainly bringing the magick of Beltane to my garden this year. I'm taking that as a good omen! Additional news...I've started corset training again after a long hiatus. Although I have worn corsets occasionally, I would say since 2014ish I haven't consistently corseted. This time I was moved to step back into a corset because I had a bit of lower back pain on one side and lacing a longline corset tightly can help support the hips/pelvis. Needless to say, I felt better within a few days but also had the corseting bug again. So I've decided to corset train for a while just for fun. I usually wear Morgana Femme Couture Victorian/Edwardian style corsets - but because they're longline (13.5" busk), they're not so good when you're sitting down at a desk. So I invested in a 10.75" busk Zita Extreme from What Katy Did specifically for wearing while I work and I'm really pleased with it. It's the first "off the rack" corset I've bought in 15 years! But the quality is great and the finish is beautiful (matt satin). We'll see how it goes. I don't plan to lace all the way down to 20" like I used to. Maybe 22"-23" - but for now, I'm just enjoying the improved posture, reduced neck ache when I'm working at a desk for a long time, and the "weighted blanket" calming a tightly laced corset brings. This update turned out to be pretty long! Thanks for tuning in. Come back again soon for more mystical musings - and for the weekly energy update with daily affirmations that is renewed every Sunday! XX Wishing you peace, prosperity and progress in all you do X Maya XX 19th April 2026…Welcome back to the blog! Another flurry of activity here at the Mayastar Temple with the Dark Moon and New Moon rituals over the past few days; and some Tantric Shamanic Rituals last night too! A very powerful time with the Killing Moon Karmic Reversal, Bringing Moon Soul Retrieval and Valkyrie Power & Protection - so I'm feeling quite blissed out now and am gradually bringing myself back to earth by scheduling in a spa day and spending some time with my guitar. This week's special offer course is the Happiness Flush Empowerment - a really beautiful energy to connect with at this time of year! Modern life tends to put conditions on our happiness. We start to imagine we have to be a certain type of person, a certain size, with certain achievements to be happy. And the media can reinforce those conditions - leaving us with endless to-do lists and lots of goals that we're continuously working towards. Productivity is a good thing. But when we measure our self-worth by how productive we are, we can end up denying ourselves happiness, and the things that make us happy. If any of that resonates with you, this is your sign to remember that your soul is in continuous communion with your divine source; that you are complete and loved exactly as you are right now; and that is reason enough to allow yourself to experience happiness! If you need push in the right direction, the Happiness Flush Empowerment is a simple practice you can use to connect with those high vibrational frequencies! Wishing you healing and happiness in the week ahead XX With blessings, Maya XX

with Daily

Affirmations to

Inspire Positivity &

Alignment with the Law of

Attraction!

In today’s energy update, we will be looking at the dominant energetic influences and the opportunities they’re creating for us now. We will cover the potential for energetic opposition and explore ways we can circumvent problems or mitigate challenges. And finally, I’ll draw daily cards with guidance and law of attraction affirmations that you can use to align with the current energetic landscape and enhance your positive mindset. I’ve chosen the Sun and Moon Tarot for our mystical meanderings today. This deck is based on the Thoth deck and includes dreamy scenes, lots of dolphins and magickal symbols. There’s a lot to draw from in every card and it’s a wonderful deck to use for meditating on the archetypes because it diverges a great deal from the traditional tarot, while still expressing the traditional themes of each card. I’m sure it will be a powerful translator of the numinous for us today. So, sit back, relax your shoulders, take a sip of chamomile tea, exhale deeply, and let’s explore… The dominant energetic influence we can tap into over the coming week, for the purpose of progressing the spiritual path, is reflected in The Chariot. The presence of this card in this position indicates enormous potential for a great leap forwards. The Chariot speaks of movement, momentum and magickal opportunities in the coming days. To connect with the power of this archetype & awaken your soul to the majesty of new experiences, remind yourself of past growth. You’ve overcome challenges, developed new skills & nurtured your wisdom. Whatever doubts you may have about your abilities, remember how you’ve achieved things that seemed beyond you in the past. Be open to the possibility that greater things than you can imagine are possible, and you’ll be aligning with this powerful energetic flow. May you prosper in all you do! The second card identifies the potential opposition we may face in pursuit of the promises of the first card. And this week this comes in the form of the Page of Wands. This is in no way a negative card but in this position we’re dealing with the shadowed aspect of the archetype. Taking into account the guidance of the first card, this card cautions us against trying to do too many things at once. Your passion & impetuousness could tie you up in knots this week by scattering your attention & energy. If you focus on too many things this week, you may end up competing with yourself & wasting your time. Seek balance & pace yourself. And now we turn to the daily cards for the week-ahead. These cards depict & define the archetypal energetic influences we can harness to optimise our personal power & increase our inspiration in the coming days. Monday 18th May 2026…5 of Cups…Create some distance between your past limitations & the present by appreciating the person you’ve evolved to be.
