Soul Stirrings…💫 A pre-Imbolc message

Creative, embodied souls who are here to be trailblazers,…💫

…KNOW that part of being on earth at this time, means to continually make ourselves open to move through the phoenix flames and embrace change, rebirth and transformation…

Growth, healing, freedom and consciously evolving into a new paradigm – without change – is simply not possible…

However, change and the unknown are very difficult for most of us (honest and humble enough to admit it)!…

💫

Here, in the Northern Hemisphere as spring gently comes closer to our part of the world, what are you beginning to feel ready to release into the phoenix flames so you can move forward into the new and who you are becoming? 🔥…

When I’m in nature,…I spend alot of my time simply BEING STILL AND RECEPTIVE…

Often our soul is requiring the body and heart to integrate all of the rapid energetic changes we are experiencing on the planet. To BE in our feminine energy simply means to stop trying, turn inward, rest, feel and allow. However, we are neither encouraged nor shown how valuable it can be to tune inwards to nature’s frequency (let alone our inner selves) using our inherent, receptive capibilities and sensory gifts ❤…

In our western world, it can be most difficult for us to do this…

However, overtime and with patience, I learnt it provides the nourishing, FERTILE SOIL for inner healing, creative inspiration and transformation to occur…

Maturing and merging with my SOUL…

Over many years, (here, since 2016), I have been devoted to write and share about conscious growth, the soul journey, sensitivity and healing the inner child, shadow work, ancestral connection, re-wilding and personal transformation…

Today, my real life teachings and skills (living simply with my soulmates and BEING in close relationship with nature over a long period), are ALL inner riches of my journey – supporting me in today’s world to be and share my authentic self…

More than ever before, I am standing in and expressing more of my truth, being open, feeling supported and trusting my intuition to guide me,…

Even in the quiet, stillness of winter, I notice that doors can open NATURALLY in the outer world (without force and exhaustion) just like they do for me when I’m in nature. I embrace these moments of alignment where I can see my soul path being illuminated…

🕯

It flows from WITHIN! 
And the daily connections I embrace and feel with ALL life forms.
(Not just human)…

We are all different and our journeys are unique!…

On my journey it never felt right for me to practise strengthening my intuition and connection to the spirit realm through meditation, sitting inside walls…

I have learnt the most by being outdoors; 🌱🌲
Through listening, observing, and deepening my heart connection with the wild plants, herbs, alpine flowers, mushrooms, the ancestors & the ancients…

Merging with my SOUL…

For my partner and I,
it’s about as much as possible,
LIVING IT,
SHARING STORIES OF CONNECTION,
BELONGING WITH MOTHER EARTH
AND TRUE BEING…

FIND YOUR UNIQUE LIGHT AND GIFT TO THIS WORLD.
LOVE YOUR JOURNEY OF BECOMING.
HAVE THE PATIENCE AND HUMILITY,
TO LET IT UNFOLD NATURALLY.
AND BE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH
TO SHARE IT WITH OTHERS.

22 December 2033. Rest in the deep stillness of Winter Solstice – the longest night of the year – knowing that the return of light is near.
Solstice blessings to everyone, Jaymie.

The true work we are here for, is inside of us.

When we write from our Soul, 
we are not writing what we "think" other people want to hear... 

We are writing from the most authentic, unique, deeper part of ourselves, 
which knows and holds the essence or "blueprint" for why we are here... 

We are not here to exist in a perma-state of clarity, peace 
or being fully at ease within ourselves and our life...

Contrary to the popular, new age definition of; "The Soul Journey" or "Soul Work",...

It is my belief that our inner work (shadow work, inner child & ancestral healing) 
never ends,... 

And it is certainly is not a process we can speed up or jump hurdles to "arrive quicker" at some superficial "destination"...

Being devoted to a path of personal transformation and conscious growth means;
We work with the external triggors and unpleasant emotions in our daily life... 

We go within; to recognise our own shadow 
and bring to light the fragmented parts of ourselves,  
who feel lost, abandoned, hurt, angry, not good enough, etc...

In my quiet time alone in nature, I can observe, 
connect and listen to these vulnerable parts of my Inner Child...

I feel their fear of being wrong, different, punished, ridiculed, judged etc.
I also feel their longing for love, safety, to be embraced and receive a hand to hold...

No person, or anything external, can do this inner work for us!...

This is the - LONG TERM - committment I make to myself  
and my soul journey of growth and evolution... 

The more we do our inner work,  
the more authentic we become...

The more we express and stand in our soul truth, 
the less we are afraid of people's reaction's (people-pleasing) or needy of their approval... 

The light within us begins to burn stronger and more radiant...

We value ourselves more and we are not so desperate or needy 
for superficial, short term results or relationships that are not honest and respectful...

But the inner work never ends, 
because our Soul Journey is cyclical and patient, like all of Nature... 

Like all of Nature, 
we each have an important part to play... 

I believe that the inner, alchemical work we do in our life and family,
is the greatest gift we can give...

...To this extraordinary, challenging, evolutionary shift in consciousness on our planet.
Be gentle with yourself...

There are many who watch over you,  
loving, supporting and guiding you on your journey home. 



Reminder: Here in the Northern Hemisphere, it is the deep, solitary inner work we do now in the darker, colder months of the year that will allow us to give birth to new energy, light, and seeds of creativity in spring 🙏🔥🌱🦋🙏

The inward journey that Winter offers & the medicine of Wild Rose…

The featured photo of this post is my homemade Wild Rose Petal Elixhir made with brandy and honey…🍸🍯🌸

Winter Solstice is not that far away…

The more I learned how to nurture and bring warmth into my own body, heart and soul, the more I began to love and truly savour the colder, darker months of the year…

Because I love the inward journey that winter offers, overtime, I found ceremony and ritual in simple things that give me great pleasure…

I learned that as I could sit in stillness tending to my shadow, my inner child and my darker, more challenging emotions, this inner journey was mirrored in the medicine I gravitated towards in nature, to nourish and support me with love…

Throughout history, and in cultures all over the world, people have been drawn to the essence and medicine of roses to nurture the body, heart and soul…In Ayurvedic medicine, rose is considered unique because of its cooling properties aswell as its ability to enhance the digestive fire – “agni”. It’s therefore perfect for balancing all three doshas…

This Wild Rose Petal Elixhir made from the petals I gathered in the mountains, is literally the closest thing I have ever made to a love potion!…😍

Drinking it, I experience a wonderful warming, softening energy in my heart and it helps me calm a restless, scattered mind. I’m using it on grey days, when I feel we could both use the relaxing, uplifting and soothing properties of Rose, while I’m also reminded of all the wonderful memories of summer in the mountains with the abundant Wild Roses…

Use as a tincture, or a small amount in sparkling or warm water, in cocktails or in teas…

In many health stores you can find Rose tincture – or, it’s easy to make with your own rose petals. You could also simply add rose petals to honey for another way to infuse and use the wonderful medicinal value of rose. Afterwards, put outside in the sunshine everyday for upto 3 or 4 weeks…If you can’t access raw honey, try a honey that’s light in colour and flavour, therefore you’ll experience the rose perfume & taste sensation!)

As my Elixhir is disappearing too quickly ☺, I plan to make more! But this time, I’ll use some of the dried wild rose petals I stored away for winter like a squirrel!…

At this time of year, while everything in popular culture is designed to drain our spirit and life-force, (turning us into senseless, mega-consumers) Nature will always offer us MORE in the way of nourishment, love, fulfillment and life-energy…

Medicine truly is everywhere…

And let’s not forget,…
Not for everyone, but for the right people, there’s ALOT of medicine
in our unique journey of transformation,
and BECOMING…❤ 🐛🦋

Many people need love this time of year. If you feel this post might offer support to a heavy heart or anyone else who might benefit from my words – please share the love! Thanks.

“What matters most are the simple pleasures so abundant that we can all enjoy them…Happiness doesn’t lie in the objects we gather around us. To find it, all we need to do is open our eyes.” – The Little Prince

Some thoughts about sensitive children and being introverted…

In our modern world, the extroverted personality is often glorified,…
while those who are naturally more introverted are not being given the understanding and compassion they deserve…

Many introverts are very sensitive to life around them and can experience the world through the lense of a deeply connected and fulfilling INNER world…💫

They have no need or desire for endless relationships or the vibrant energy of people around them…Energy, fulfillment and balance come through silence, simplicity, being alone in nature or with one’s own clear and individual thoughts…

Early in life, children who show signs of naturally being this way need to hear that their gifts are unique, beautiful and equally beneficial to a world, which is often far too noisy and busy – with humans who struggle to find fulfillment or safety in the simplicity of their own stillness and inner silence…

Sensitive children are a gift to this world…

They can help us to connect with our own vulnerability, sensitivity, longing for love and compassion and to be true to our own heart and soul path…

In a world ready to be reborn, I hope we can all become more conscious of our own generational wounds so we don’t unconsciously project them onto the next generations…Above all, early on, we celebrate the individual essence and unique soul gifts, which are rare but beautifully present in every child…

Do you long to experience life more from the level of your heart and soul…?

A short message channelled here in 2018, in the mountains between Italy and Switzerland.

Human beings naturally crave structure, security,
or a clear and straight path laid out before them.
Many search for a spiritual leader or community,
a daily routine, ‘an acceptable way’ to follow –
so life feels more safe, predictable and ‘known’…

But the heart yearns for the deeper springs of life
and the path of the soul
is uniquely your own.

It’s a pathway that you forge into the unknown
and only your heart can intuitively feel/know
what is right and true for you.

If you really choose this path,
with all your heart and being,
know that you will be challenged.

You will need courage and perseverance
to keep opening your heart
towards the unhealed shadow
– of which has been ‘hidden’ to you…

Experiences which may come to you
won’t always be easy, pleasant or beautiful…
It may sometimes feel as if you walk a lonely path
but you will always be much closer to us than you know…

Above all,…you will grow,…

There will be others…
Soul friends and spiritual companions to meet again,
Soul family to share laughter, tears,
wisdom and experiences along the way…

It will not matter,
if you only cross paths for a short moment
or never meet each other in the physical.
It’s the mutual exchange of heart energy,
which has the power to transform, heal,
inspire and illuminate lives.

Dear one,
to live your life from the level of the heart and soul
means to become conscious of your old wounds
and from these limiting beliefs and conditioning,
create new, loving and joyful possibilities…

It means to recognise the importance of your inner work
and honour yourself as a sacred conduit –
here to shine your inner light

& help raise the consciousness and heart energy
on beautiful Mother Earth…

It means wherever possible,
guided by your feelings and heart
– to transform darkness, hurt and fear
into light, love, forgiveness, beauty,
 gratitude and fulfillment.

This is the magic,
the spiritual alchemy,
the infinite possibility,
the authenticity, humility and freedom
of living – connected and true –
to your heart and soul.

Getting in sync with Mother Nature’s rhythms and cycles…

In ancient times, the Celtic festival of Samhain was celebrated as a mandatory holiday that lasted three full days and nights…

Samhain today in the Northern Hemisphere began last evening (October 31) and will end tonight (November 1)…

As Samhain occurs at roughly the midpoint between the Fall Equinox and the Winter Solstice, it was to mark an ending to the harvest time and the beginning of a new cycle…celebrating, honouring and connecting deeper with nature’s transition from lightness (summer) to darkness (winter)…

Today and right now, is a good moment to reflect on what we have learned during these past months,…What lessons, gifts and wisdom do we wish to take forward into winter…? What are we most grateful for?…🙏

We might also recognise beliefs that we have outgrown or any other limitations that we can now freely let go,…

Seeing ourselves not separate but “in sync” with Mother Natures rhythms and cycles, means we harness the energy and opportunities to move forward lighter, more free, and trusting our journey…

Our energy can therefore expand to encompass new experiences and ways of being and sharing more of our true self and gifts in the world…

Our ancestors and guides are always nearby and offering their support when needed! 💓

Do you long to experience life more from the level of your heart and soul…?

What does it mean to live life from the level of our heart and soul?…

Curious to understand my life path more deeply, I asked my guides this question around 2 years ago. I was surprised and inspired by the wisdom and sense of peace and clarity that came through, in a short channeled reading.Afterwards, I decided to share the reading with others on my blog…

1 year ago, I was asking a question to my spirit guides about what this really means… and this was their reply to me…

Human beings naturally crave structure, security,
or a clear and straight path laid out before them.
Many search for a spiritual leader or community,
a daily routine, ‘an acceptable way’ to follow –
so life feels more safe, predictable and ‘known’…
