The Weekly Familiar - Elephant

The Weekly Familiar - an Animal Message from Tony

This week's Familiar is ELEPHANT.

Elephant: An elephant came to me this week with it's message about support. Each elephant has it's role in the tribe but will give support to anyone who needs it. They all come together to protect and help each other especially their young. This message is asking you to look at the support around you and the support you give to others. Support to partners, family or friends. Support is about giving and receiving, equality in relationships. There is no one role greater or more important than any other, we can all help each other to simply be. The Elephant.
Be Wild!

Welcoming the Dark Sister - Embracing Black Moon Lilith

The first of the Black Moon Lilith Illumination workshops has already filled within a week, showing me just how necessary and needed this beautiful shadow work is for us at the moment. For those of you who missed out on a place, I will be holding the next workshop on the Dark Moon in Gemini on Monday, 18th June. Please contact me with your birth details if you feel called to explore this illuminating work.

At this time of the rise of the Divine Feminine we are asked to illuminate the shadow aspects of lives to bring these 'orphaned' or 'outcast' aspects of ourselves into the luminous circle. Once embraced and loved they begin to become powerful traits and treasured gifts.

In this small and personal workshop held on the Dark Moon in Gemini a time when we can receive messages from our 'twin' or 'other' self, we will discover through Astrology where our Black Moon Lilith  resides in our Natal Chart. Through the ancient symbols of the Tarot we will find a language to help us to delve into the Deep, the Unknown to recover, honour and welcome every part of ourselves. It is time to reclaim the wise woman, the shamaness, the wild creatures. It is time to express our True Nature.

8 places available: please contact Julia with your birth details.

The Weekly Familiar - Ant

 The Weekly Familiar - an Animal Message from Tony

This week's Familiar is ANT. 

Ant: An ant came to me this morning with it's message about carrying burdens. The ant knows it's limits. We humans tend to try and carry too many things at once whereas the ant will carry only what it needs and no more. Why do we carry too much? Perhaps it is a good time to let go of some of our burdens. Once we let go we feel lighter, our posture straightens and we have more mobility. Are your burdens as important as you think? Time to reassess, let go and only carry what you need.

Be Wild!

Honouring the Super Moon & Radiant Sun

This morning I felt called to check in with the birds at this time of such a huge Full Moon. Williamstown is a sanctuary for seabirds but I've never seen as many gathered together as I saw at dawn this morning. I love looking at the city from this side of the world - hello Melbourne!

On Friday on our walk I was being mindful to follow my hearing. I could hear a tree rustling and walked over to this tree. As I stepped closer I Tony pointed out that there was a flower inside the hollow - it was in fact 2 pink roses, side by side. I love the secret stories and mysteries revealed. Where is the love? Everywhere x

Clearing Past Life and Ancestral Vows and Beliefs

 

Julia Margaret Cameron: The Little Novice & the Queen 1874
 
'Julia, I feel like you are a big part of my healing. I wake up every day thinking is this me? Is this a dream? Thinking that I will wake up and it didn't happen and I will go back to before. I tap and feel my body every day. I feel like i have been in a box locked up for years and now I am free and let out, like a new life, a new start. I am still in shock of it all and can't believe how I feel. It's like I am back.'
Laura, Yoga Instructor,  2012

Clearing Past Life Sacred Vows - Balance Session

THE SACRED WORD
Sometimes it is only in doing the work that you come to truly know it. In particular, since the Autumn Equinox this year I have seen many clients, for energy balances and have to come to understand that the work I am doing is clearing past life and ancestral sacred vows, promises & oaths. I have been seeing an many people called to healing and artistic paths from all walks of life, coming forward to shed old vows and beliefs that are creating blocks in their healing work & personal lives in the present. 
 

Spiritual Vows include:

  • The vow of chastity - creating relationships difficulties and belief that we must choose either a vocation or a relationships, that we cannot have both.
  • The vow of obedience - causing a block to using your personal power in this life
  • The vow of silence - causing blocks to creative and individual expression as well as blocks to passing on sacred teachings in this life - in the past this may have resulted in death
  • The vow of poverty - creating a feeling of deep guilt in relation to creating financial wealth in this life
  • The vow of death before dishonour - relating to past lives as sacred warriors or soldiers and creates a block in being able to leave unhappy relationships or work that is deeply unfulfilling & even dangerous
  • The healer's oath - (forbade healers to use healing energy for themselves but to keep 'serving' others)
In the past many people called to the healer's path had to live lives hidden away from mainstream society or spiritual vocations that may have meant decades offered up in servitude to temples and churches. And of course many healers were persecuted and executed for their beliefs and for their earth wisdom and knowledge of natural healing. In those times, the making of Sacred and Spiritual Vows kept us safe and helped us to survive but in this life they create extreme circumstances that make living extremely difficult and create enormous blocks to sharing our powerful healing gifts with trust.
 
You can read more about this work and testimonials here. I feel so deeply honoured to be able to offer this work and I have made extra times available for sessions after the Full Moon next week as we move into the Dark Moon and then build up to the Eclipse - a natural time of bringing what needs to be examined to the surface of our lives.
