We had the 10:10 Portal Intensive with the Goddess Idun, a special working of the Heimdall Revelation & Illumination Tantric Shamanic Ritual for the spectacular solar storms, and as the moon waxes, preparations are afoot for the Luring Moon Abundance Alignment 30-Day Ritual Intensive that starts on the 17th - one of my favourite rituals! Drawing in positive energy, strengthening good karmic connections and manifesting good fortune, healing and abundance has a knock on effect on my own life and energy; but I'm doubly blessed by the transformations the ritual inspires in the lives on my clients. So I'm looking forward to the Full Hunter's Moon! Spiritual Ascension Update: From the Equinox to the Solstice This time of year things really intensify on an energetic level for everyone spiritually. The period from the Autumn Equinox to the Winter Solstice is traditionally a time of taking stock, evaluating your progress and making decisions about the future. But this year, with the opening of the Age of Aquarius Ascension Gateway, more people are called to progress their spiritual path; and the Light-Beings that support us in that process are reaching out! Finding Your Spirit Guides for Healing & Spiritual Awakening One of my Spirit Guides is Pleiadian, and another is Lemurian; and these two in particular have been around me a lot - especially in my dreams and during channelling work. The guidance that's come through for starseeds, lightworkers, healers and seekers emphasises the process of releasing the past; smoothing the transition as the energy of the earth goes through another ascension cycle, and allowing us to embrace the higher energetic frequencies with less resistance. This is a time of intensive spiritual healing for the collective and for the planet as a whole. But we're not on our own in this! The Pleiadians, Lemurians, Arcturians, Sirians, Ascended Masters, Angels and Spirit Guides are all with us and supporting us in our awakening. Energy Healing Techniques for Spirit Guide Connection with Lemurians, Archangels & Ascended Masters It's a good time for strengthening your connection with your spirit guides - and there are a number of ways to do that but the Starseed Spirit Guide Connections Course, Ascended Masters Attunements, Archangelic Links, Lemurian Indigo Connections and the starseed-centric courses would all be powerful techniques to work with to activate those connections. We all have a team of supportive light-beings that offer us encouragement, guidance, insight, healing and support as we journey through life. A lot of the time we're not even aware of them, but when we consciously choose to connect with them, they are able to provide us with much more support. The universal law of free will means they cannot intervene if we don't consciously intend and invite them to do so; but when we do request their support and healing, they're always right there with us. If you haven't connected with your guides before, now is the perfect time to develop those spiritual relationships! Wishing you all a magickal and miraculous week! With blessings X Maya Week-Ahead Energy Updates for Starseeds, Lightworkers, Indigo Children, Healers & Seekers with Daily Affirmations to Inspire Positivity & Alignment with the Law of Attraction! I’ve chosen the Spirit Song Tarot for our etheric explorations today. This deck features pretty pastel-coloured images of animals throughout – and its whimsical style amplifies the magickal side of the majestic creatures depicted. Paulina Cassidy’s artwork resonates strongly with me at times I'm working with animal healing systems and connecting with dolphin healing energy for last week’s special offer course has inspired me to reach for these beautiful cards. I’m sure this deck 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 journey & pursuing the path to wholeness is reflected in the Temperance card. For me, Temperance isn’t only about balancing your activities and ensuring you take adequate time out for grounding, self-care & healing practices, it’s also about communing with elemental energies as part of my meditation practice. So the presence of this card in this position reminds us not only to make sure we find balance, but that when we choose activities for our relaxation time, we consider ways we can enhance our healing journey through them. For example, if you can allocate time for a long walk in the countryside at the weekend, you could choose to make this a healing meditation practice by listening to my latest meditation release as you walk, or you could decide your walk would be a time to do some mental decluttering – so during your walk you observe your thoughts and let go of them as you feel ready to. There are lots of ways to make a normal activity into a sacred practice, so this week, experiment & marvel at the magick you can bring into your life! 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 4 of Pentacles. This is in no way a negative card, but in this position, we’re looking at the shadow aspects. The 4 of Pentacles cautions us to be careful not to be too rigid or resistant in our approach. Choosing to disconnect in order to tend to your spiritual needs is a soul-affirming opportunity. But looking at it as a need to protect yourself from the outside world could mean your focus is on conflict or the behaviour of those around you. Attending to your self-care this week can be a way to honour yourself, meet your needs & return refreshed, but it’s important to recognise that it’s your choice rather than to feel your motivations are a reaction to the choices of those around you. 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 14th October 2024…Queen of Pentacles…You thrive & prosper today! Comfort, calmness & contentment reign supreme.

Always & in all ways” 5th October 2024…Muses…Well, it’s officially autumn! Here in the UK the weather has shifted after some late summer sunshine in September, and I’m starting to prepare for “spooky season”. My favourite time of year! The Goddess Idun, Wolf Medicine Shamanism & Samhain Rituals… This Samhain festival will coincide with the dark moon phase and therefore, with the opening of the Killing Moon Cycle - it’s perfect timing and I’ll be working that cycle for myself too! It’s a time for energetic decluttering and clearing, and this week I’ll also be performing a ritual for some of my clients that connects with the Norse Goddess Idun. She’s often perceived as a Goddess of Spring because she’s the deity that hands out the apples of immortality to the gods in Norse mythology so her energy is all about renewal and life; but I like to connect with her around the equinoxes because there are other aspects of her mythology that connect her with Wolf-Spirit energy! In an obscure story about Idun from an old Norse poem called “Hrafnagaldr Oðins” (Odin’s Raven Spell), her descent from Asgard to a lower level of being is explored. She becomes shell-shocked and paralysed; unable to speak and unable to get herself out of her predicament. She is given a wolf-skin (though the story isn’t clear as to who donates this), which she puts on. This shamanic tale sees her adopting the energy of the wolf, becoming wilder, stronger and more ferocious. With these new qualities integrated into her being, she is able to resolve her situation and navigate the lower worlds. It’s a story of empowerment and awakening. But I also find it reflects an important lesson for Lightworkers: STAY GROUNDED! I feel like this vibe is also reflected in this week’s course offer for the Goddess Athena Fearlessness Activation - and even the week-ahead energy reading (scroll down) starts with the 8 of Swords - which can be about fear, limiting beliefs and being stuck; but it ends with a transformation through the Hanged Man, and an assumption of power, courage and strength in the Queen of Wands. This energetic current is very powerful - it’s the perfect time for overcoming the limitations of the past! Energy Healing with Animal Energies… At this time of year, as the solar current wanes, focusing on clearing negative energy, protecting your energy field and protecting your home are great ways to harness the energetic tides. And if you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know that in spring and autumn I work more with animal energies (Lightworker Animal Empowerments and Animal Medicine Empowerments) - and this year is no exception! I usually work with bear energy but this year, I’m focusing more on wolf energy in my morning energy healing sessions because I’ve been working on that Idun ritual. It’s definitely an energy I like to connect with outside and while observing nature as the seasons change. Long Hair Update…Henna & Haircut… In other news…this week I cut about 6 inches off my hair! It kind of needed it - I kept sitting on it and I was starting to worry about giving myself a neck injury! Literally no one noticed it got 6 inches shorter because it’s so long. But that’s the first time I’ve even trimmed it in many years! As I write this, it’s also freshly hennaed - and nothing makes me feel more “Pre-Raphaelite” than freshly hennaed hair! Speaking of which… The New Pre-Raphaelite Project Plans: Art & Photography… There are a lot of photographs from my old photo shoots and Pre- Raphaelite projects that I’ve done edits to and reimagined over the years - some of them can be found on this blog! But at some stage I will sort them out and create some galleries on here with some of the images I liked best, and some of the transmutations that evolved from those original images. I can’t decide how to organise them yet - by shoot, by photographer, by time…I’m still in the planning stage! I will create some new art in the future but I feel like I need to sort out and organise the fruits of the work so far before I take that step. I have some ideas for progressing the New Pre-Raphaelite project so watch this space, because this blog is where I’ll share new art and photos. I’ll add a couple of images from the NPR (New Pre-Raphaelite) project to this blog entry. Yes, that’s something I really need to sort out. I had to replace the blog because the old software I used to build it was so out of date; but I was busy with a lot of things at the time and didn’t have the time to copy across all the old blog pages and all the photos and so on. But now that I feel inspired to progress the project, I feel like I should publish some of those older images again so that this blog will reflect the evolution of the NPR project. I’ve got to get up properly now and start the day - my dogs are getting impatient for breakfast…and I need to do a little bit of work this morning before I flump out for a lazy Sunday! Wishing you all a magickal and miraculous week!
