25.01.2022 "Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."
25.01.2022 Tarot As A Therapeutic Tool Until recently I thought Tarot was merely a tool for divination, which it is, but it’s so much more when used to help people understand aspects of themselves that are deftly hidden away by their subconscious mind. Through the use of imagery, Tarot cards can help people gain insight into circumstances that are happening in their own lives, to bring to their attention hidden situations they may be unaware of, and areas in their life that remain unres...olved causing them anxiety. Re-framing the situation with the help of the cards can shift their focus and change their perspective to a new way of viewing their world and others around them. The cards can indicate why they make the decisions they make and what is possibly driven by avoidance or anxiety. The magical and seemingly mystical part of a Tarot reading is how the subconscious mind drives the selection of cards that are appropriate for the person at the time. In this way it truly is a divination tool, and if you look up the meaning of divination it means to be inspired by God or in shamanic terms, to be inspired by "the Great Spirit", and that is how the real magic happens.

22.01.2022 Ah this is lovely. Thanks to Babula Clement for sharing.
18.01.2022 Winter solstice altar....with the added energy (kick) of the solar eclipse in Cancer. When creating an altar they can be as simple or as complex as you like. I like to use items I already have, particularly dried plants. Tune in to the solstice energy and what it means for you personally, then intuitively arrange your items. Youll know when its right...and remember to light a candle. You can also drum, ring bells or sing a Tibetan or crystal bowl over your altar to activate the energy.
18.01.2022 During the times of restriction many people became "cage bound both physically and mentally". While there was great stress and trauma around feeling restricted, we can forget that some now feel the same stress and trauma about leaving their homes and reintegrating back into the outside world. The busyness and loud sounds after experiencing peace, quiet and safety in our homes can be daunting for some. If you are feeling this way, even slightly, hummingbird medicine can help w...ith these concerns, fluttering around us helping with the loosening of our sense of habituated physical and mental confinement. Hummingbird loosens us from the habit of being caged to once again appreciate our freedom while encouraging us to live life to the fullest in wonder like a wide-eyed child. Place images of hummingbird in your environment and watch the changes within you take place. See more
17.01.2022 About 20 years ago when I was new to walking labyrinths, I had a strange experience. About 8 to 10 people had gathered together on a cold winters night in July to walk an outdoor labyrinth. We were walking one behind the other and to a particular Gregorian chant. We were in lockstep while touching the shoulder of the person in front of us and all you could hear was the sound of the gravel under our feet as we walked in unison. After walking into the middle, stepping up to the... middle plate and calling on the spirits, we then retraced our steps out. Immediately myself and one other became extremely hot, ripping off our heavy winter coats and stripped down to our lightest clothing. I felt what it might be like to come close to spontaneously combusting! We had one person between us who remained unaffected, while the others also remained unaffected. It was as if someone had set us both on fire, but from within. I have never had that experience again, but Ive also not walked in a labyrinth since, having lost touch with the woman who created the labyrinth on her 2.5 acres on the outskirts of Brisbane. If you have had an unusual experience walking a labyrinth Id love to hear it too. See more

17.01.2022 Astrologer Babula Clement and Sheryl Gottschall, discuss the Full Moon in Pisces and other lunar aspects for the first 2 weeks of September 2020. Included are the effects of the Pisces Moon on our emotions and psyche, what happens when Mercury enters Libra and what we might see when Mercury opposes Mars to square Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn in Capricorn. Following this, Venus enters Leo so this could add to the rise in women speaking out on the world stage and in our personal w...orld, plus more focus on our financial situation both personal and global. Then we have the teeth clenching wait to when Mars goes retrograde and does so for some months. Will we see Mars on steroids or its more positive nature? Hopefully when Jupiter goes direct soon after, things will feel a bit lighter and easier. Well just have to wait and see! https://youtu.be/cxJx10yi6wQ See more
17.01.2022 Did you know that sound therapy is one of a growing number of subtle energy therapies that make up the field of vibrational medicine that go beyond relaxation to stimulate healing? Certain sounds and vibrations using instruments such as Crystal Singing Bowls, Tuning Forks, Chimes, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Bells and Medicine Drums, can help us recover from a wide variety of ailments including anxiety, stress, chronic pain and depression. Those who attended our Crystal Bowl Sound Bath Meditation last Friday night floated along on the sound waves of our lovely gong attuned to the planet Neptune.

16.01.2022 Water has a memory and because we live in a closed system on Earth we are drinking the same water our ancestors drank. I wonder what memories our ancestors have passed on to us through water?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeeAMNxuqio
16.01.2022 Some thoughts for the day..... This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all!... Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought, the shame, the malice. Meet them at the door laughing and invite them in. Be grateful for whatever comes because each has been sent as a guide from beyond. Jellaludin Rumi
14.01.2022 A Prayer for Winter I have a book of prayers by Lynn Andrews which includes prayers for Winter. I particularly like this one as it aligns with the shamanic concept of becoming a hollow bone to be able to truly be of service to the Great Spirit. The prayer is rather lengthy so heres an excerpt. (image is a SoulCollage card created by me) As I lay down for the long winter to pray To more deeply understand my true nature... And the nature of this Great Mother Earth My spirit is like a hollow log filled with your light. May I never lose touch with what is real and true. May I touch the snows of winter with my fingertips And be reminded of the purity of your being May I see the reflection of your face In all of the beings who surround me. In my long dream, through the long winter night, May I receive symbols from you That will deepen my understanding And help me go beyond the limits of language Into the dreamtime. I await the imprinting of your knowledge Into my emptiness. Help me understand, Great Spirit All that I come here to learn in this lifetime. As I move into the sacred dreamtime of the winter I offer my prayers, gratitude and love. See more
14.01.2022 Lessons From Amaterasu Amaterasu is a Goddess embodied as the Sun who rules the Universe and a principal deity of Japanese Shinto. The stories and myths of Amaterasu come from the Kojiki, the oldest surviving book in Japan that was completed in 712c.e. Amaterasu becomes upset by her brothers disruptive and inappropriate behaviour fleeing to hide herself in a cave, and as a result the world falls dark without her light. The Shamaness and Goddess Uzume assesses the situation an...d decides she needs to coax Amaterasu outside again so the world will continue to receive her light. Uzeme cunningly places a mirror directly outside the cave then proceeds to dance and sing in the hope of attracting Amaterasus attention. Amaratesu eventually ventures outside and sees her reflection in the mirror, not realising it is her own beauty that bedazzles her, returning the Sun to the Earth. Amaterasus story reminds us that no matter how hurt we may feel and want to hide ourselves away from the world, that we are all sacred mirrors reflecting the light that the world needs right now.

13.01.2022 Last Sunday (21 June 2020) ushered in the New Moon solar eclipse in Cancer which also fell on the southern hemispheres Winter Solstice. In this episode astrologer Babula Clement and Sheryl Gottschall talk about this dramatic astrological event and what it might mean for the world as well as in our personal lives. Eclipses are dramatic wildcards that trigger big life changing events so theres no turning back to what was. Babula and Sheryl also discuss the ongoing astrological... changes playing themselves out right now globally where the eclipse casts a wide net across China, through northern India and Tibet, through southern Saudi Arabia, Oman and Yemen, then on into middle Africa to Ethiopia. So keep an eye on those locations. If you thought 2020 was dramatic so far, think again, because we are in for more as the rest of 2020 continues to kick like a mule. So buckle up! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4SZ55DG_VA See more

08.01.2022 Todays Oracle Message from Kali, Green Tara and Shekinah. With the world seemingly gone mad and public focus being shifted from virus to violence, its no surprise that these oracle cards should make themselves known right now. KALI - In the eyes of westerners, Kali is a dark goddess of mind, body and soul, a mysterious goddess of death and destruction. But in Hindu teachings, Kali is not so much a goddess as a fierce force who often enters when dark deeds need to be met wit...h dark deeds. In other words Kali doesnt muck around sorting things out and getting them on track! From the beginning of the pandemic, the ensuing restrictions and now race riots, Kali has been cutting through illusions to show us what no longer serves us. However, as Kali does her job it can feel like events have been happening to us rather than for us. As things are taken away from us, whether that is our freedom, choice, money etc, Kali is showing us that maybe some of our choices, freedoms and the way we value money were not in our best interests. In a way, Kali leads us through our initiation into a new way of being where after being stripped of things that no longer serve us, we rebuild ourselves from the bare bones of who we are, and in doing so move forward on a more authentic path. GREEN TARA Tara is a female bodhisattva and an important goddess deity in both Buddhism and Hinduism. She represents compassion and sympathetic action. We have recently seen her expressing herself in acts of compassion, relationship and reconciliation, in the recent scenes of US police officers taking a knee to the ground to connect with protesters wanting to be heard. Green Tara says yes I hear you, I validate you, and I understand you. Instead of becoming stuck in the impotence of helplessness, Green Tara moves us to go forward in compassionate action, taking action in love from a place of love. The affirmation from Green Tara is - my soul informs my every step. SHEKINAH In the Kabbalah, Shekinah is the Divine Feminine and in Hebrew means dwelling or settling, denoting the dwelling or settling of Divine presence. She is pure light, the light that shines within us at all times and all consciousness is part of her light. No matter if we are experiencing good or bad, Shekinah is right there with us, all the way from birth to death and beyond. After Kali strips away everything we thought we needed to be successful or perfect, Shekinah says we do not have to strive to be or have anything to reach our own benchmark. It is enough to experience our own radiance.
05.01.2022 The full Moon in Pisces is coming up on 2 September at 3.22pm in Brisbane, Australia. This moon cycle could make you feel more sensitive, dreamy and imaginative and help you tune into your intuition more easily. It can enhance your empathic abilities but be careful not to lose track of your own feelings and reactions in the process.Take some time out to be with your personal emotions, maybe near water or through artistic expression or music. Meditation and daydreaming can help gain clarity and peace of mind.
05.01.2022 What does the New Moon in Cancer mean for you? Join Babula and myself as we discuss the highlights of this next Lunar cycle. https://youtu.be/Og5XBr5PwJQ
05.01.2022 This week Babula and I look at the astrology for the month of June, which has 5 planets in retrograde making it a BIG month! Confusion, mixed messages (keep an eye on the media) and paradoxes in public view and behind the scenes is the flavour in our current world affairs. Deep introspection is what will be required as we ask what is the truth? A strong Gemini influence is in the background asking us to connect our heart to our head followed by the full Moon lunar eclipse... in Sagittarius on June 6, prompting our wanderlust just in time for the easing of restrictions in Queensland so we can travel the state. On June 13 Mars conjuncts Neptune muddying the waters so clarity around matters is lacking, followed by Mercury going retrograde on June 18 affecting our communications whether its verbal or via technology. June 19 sees Sun conjunct North Node in Gemini asking us to be open-minded and curious while welcoming new perspectives and accepting that we dont have all the answers. Its certainly a month full of twists and turns, thats for sure, so buckle! up!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hll6L_9PbTE

03.01.2022 The full Moon in Aquarius occurred on Tuesday 4th August at 1.58am AEST. Ruled by Uranus, this full Moon electrifies the air and our nervous system, so we might feel a little unsettled or jittery. Shining its beautiful self on issues surrounding friends, freedom, independence, revelation and revolution, it can also highlight issues about the future, something we are all wondering about. This Aquarius Moon will certainly help us to think and see outside the box while asking us to let go and go with the flow as we move on to the new, whatever awaits us. As we collectively experience the grief about loss of freedom due to the current pandemic, it reminds us that we are having a collective experience and that we are all part of the one human family. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq_hb302Dck
