Join me in this fabulous conversation with musician and healer Jenny Ember Lee.  We wax poetic on so many topics (as we do) including anxiety, moving energy through the body, breathwork, triggers, fire dragons and more!

Jenny is a true healing artist, weaver of many prismatic modalites, and souls sister along the path of self healing and embodied wholeness. She is an LMT, Primal Vinyasa Yoga Teacher, Certified Integrative Nutrition Coach, Trained Conscious Connected Breathwork Facilitator, Vocal Empowerment Coach , and Professional Musician who weaves these teachings together as an Psycho-somatic-spiritual Counselor. She has passed through the gates of initiation of recovery from a 9 year eating disorder, 2 years of the Vision Quest in the Navajo lineage. She has been trained in trauma informed care and decolonized non violent communication. Her ongoing studies in the mystical realms of philosophy, earth medicines, poetry, and cosmic communion bolster her expansive and yet rooted approach to guide the Self back into Soul Embodied, where unity and truth integrate into harmonic congruence that welcomes Healing on all levels. She is here to empower, support, awaken, and make a positive change on the minds that are here for the shifting of consciousness.

Jenny is devoted to bridging the worlds between the shadow and the light to integrate harmony and peace within the vast reality that is a human life, and to re-sacred the mundane moments to live a life that is deeply rooted in the ethics of beauty and being love. She believes that we are already the medicine that we need, and when we are supported along the journey, we  no longer have to heal alone, because healing is synonymous with connection; to self and others.

This week's message brings some sweetness to the heart for any of you my dear friends who might be feeling tired, sad, lonesome or weary.  The air feels full with feelings here in the Joywork Cottage and I sense perhaps you might be experiencing some of this weight as well?  Share with me in the comments if this feels true for you...

Ace of Cups

Wisdom

This week the Ace of Cups gives us a hopeful nod in the direction of something new.  When we have these periods of moments of discomfort and unrest, it can sometimes feel quite overwhelming or as if we might not feel bright again.

The Ace of Cups reminds us that this is how rebirth feels.  Whenever we begin anew, whenever we start fresh there will always be the digestion and release of what was.  This is normal, natural and nothing to resist.  It just is!  Death (letting go) always precedes Rebirth.  And it is uncomfortable.

This card feels like a balm to my tender heart today.  A cosmic reminder that with each shift we have the privilege of feeling all the feels.  That sensation is not a problem... it is just that sometimes we may not prefer what we are feeling.  It's okay to have preferences and feelings and such... this is why we are here!  It is what makes us human animals.

Wisdom popped out of the Message Cauldron to remind us that we develop Wisdom by moving through difficult and tender places.  Wisdom is earned.  Wisdom is hard won by walking through the fire over and over again...allowing each old version of ourselves to melt away as the new one is revealed.

This is what healing is about actually.  We release the old version of us, her stories, belief systems and patterns in exchange for a next level version that sees the world differently.  We begin to inhabit new neural pathways and heart spaces that offer us the exquisite experience of being reborn.

This Imbolc, at the crossroads between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, we energetically orient ourselves to this sensation.  We are not the person we entered Winter as... and the new Spring version of us is not yet born.  Who are we becoming?

Possible Journal Prompts:

How does my heart feel today?

What in my life feels like it doesn't fit anymore?

Who am I in this NOW moment?

What is itching to be born this Spring?

Let me know what you feel from this reading!

In Service,

Wyld

Moonday TAROT Message for JANUARY 

The Lovers

Inner Trust

This is such a sweet, deep message for us this week, and really all year long!  2022 is defined by The Lovers card!

This moonth, we are invited to begin stepping out of the cave and seeing how our inner lives are reflected back to us from our external relationships.  We can always use this information in our healing process!  Our external landscape is often a reflection of what's going on inside (for example, is your room always a mess when you are feeling overwhelmed?  I know mine gets cluttered real quick in equal measure to my scattered thoughts...). So we allow ourselves to get super honest about what our external environment and relationships look like; and we get to decide if they are in alignment with who we we desire to be or how we want to feel and experience our lives.  

Life should be JUICY!  So if our outside reality isn't - the best way to shift it is on the inside!  Make those shifts within and the external begins to magically change.  It is simply the way it is.  When we change our rhythm, our flow, our frequency - we attract and allow different things.

Finally, Inner Trust from the Sacred Rebels deck reminds us that we CAN trust ourselves!  We have everything we need within to guide us during these times of transition and transformation.  Follow what feels good, feels right and feels true.  TRUST yourself!

If TRUST is a difficult space for you, consider joining WYLS Moon Medicine Collective for Women!  IT is a beautiful membership space of fellow souls on their healing journey- reclaiming our power, boundaries and trust amongst other things!  You are INvited!  Link in bio and below...

Moonday Message for JANUARY

Ace of Cups

Simple message today... the Ace of Cups.

We are invited into our emotional body at this time to really feel and digest our feelings all the way through until they are complete.  This is the path to feeling deeper intimacy with ourselves and with others.  Instead of suppressing our thoughts, needs and boundaries - this week the invitation is to express yourself.  Allow it to be weird, messy and vulnerable.  FEEL IT!  Feeling is healing after all...

Underneath the feels is the juice.  The truth.  The feelings hold as anchors or place markers to points in our day where things were out of alignment and needing attention.  That's all!  And once we offer attention, release the feeling then magically we stumble onto the truth and perhaps the ways in which we can remedy whatever feels off.  

The brain may try to sidestep the awkward bits by telling you that what you feel in too much/too big etc... just remind that cute brain gently that you can trust your feelings and that you are curious to discover why you feel the way you do.

We can let self intimacy be an exploration!

Moonday TAROT Message for JANUARY

Nine of Pentacles

Simplicity

Raccoon vertebrae 

The Moonday Message this week gives us a clear invitation... where are we staying busy, obligated or committed that simply isn't in alignment anymore?  Where is our energy leaking in ways that no longer offer reciprocity?  Where do we continue doing things we actually don't want to do because we feel like we "have" to or "should"?

This week offers us the universal permission slip to Just. Let. Go.

Nine of Pentacles shares the constriction that occurs when we are over-full and not in alignment.  It feels like being surrounded by swords and unable to move in a new direction.  It's not a problem - we all have times in our lives where this sensation arises.  It can be challenging to let go of jobs, projects, relationships etc just because they no longer feel right.  We sometimes assume we must have a reason or explanation for our choices - but that is not actually true.

As a Sovereign Being, you have full autonomy over your personal experience and can release whatever is not in alignment at any point without permission from others.  You are in charge of your ride.  You are the recipient of all consequences and opportunities of choosing (or not choosing) to remain in alignment with yourself.  It is YOUR life.  And this week is inviting you to OWN it.

In the Nine of Pentacles, we release that which feels constricting in the body... and through this choice we magnetize in SIMPLICITY.  Oh my, when simplicity truly lands, it is exquisite.  The sense of calm and peace that is possible when we unplug from the complexity of the "have to" and "should" mind space is utterly delicious.

Supporting here is the Raccoon vertebrae.  Raccoon, the ultimate mask wearer, beckons us to question every obligation, every choice in our lives and fully claim the ones we wish to keep.  Sometimes this means accepting that we have been wearing a mask metaphorically and not behaving authentically out of pressure to be more _____________ - fill in here (more loveable, more desired, more responsible etc).  Yet once we see and own the masks we have adopted, we have the power and authority to slip them off and actually walk our talk.

Even if it means others might be uncomfortable.  Or relationships might shift. Or jobs may change.  By holding our inner authority firm, we create the space for new aligned relationships, projects and work to enter our field.  We begin living life through the eyes of Great Mystery.  Such a magnificent and different experience!

Moonday TAROT Message for THE NEW YEAR!

FIVE OF CUPS

THE SAGE

Moving into spaciousness and freedom!

The Message this week is about the wisdom of magnetism and space.  We are often overrun with the hustle and tips to "plan" our best year moving forward.  There is value in planning... yet the cards this week suggest that we use the energy of the upcoming Dark Moon to give attention to the aspect of release.  What are we not willing to carry forward into 2022?  There is deep magic that occurs when we make space first before we try to fill our lives with new habits or goals.  Nature abhors a vacuum - when we make the space for new energy to flow, that is when we are rewarded with bright inspiration and novel ways of reinventing ourselves!

Some journal prompts for this New Year's week:

1. What am I willing to release in order to make space for the new version of myself to emerge?

2. What am I resisting letting go of?  Why?

3. What is no longer feeding me and is actually creating a feeling of agitation in my body?

4. Am I willing to trust the ebb and flow in my life?

5. If I had more space in my day to day, what curiousity would I follow?

6. What does the archetype of the Tiger hold for me in the coming year?

Allow these questions to inspire and awaken a new way of reviewing and preparing yourself for the New Year... and let me know what arises!  I always respond, promise!

Moonday TAROT Message for DECEMBER

Ten of Pentacles

Seven of Pentacles

This week is grounded in the element of Earth with the Pentacles.

We are invited to come back hOMe to ourselves and to stop focusing so much of our energy outside of ourselves.  The Ten of Pentacles warns us to disconnect from any martyr or victim energies and allow ourselves to give space for others to have their process.  It is a thin line between support and savior.  Take time this week to look at ways in which you might be reacting from a space of righteousness and instead lean into self tending and then supporting from that full cup within.  How many brain calories are you expending pondering other people's lives, choices and ways?  Is it exhausting yet?  We don't have to carry this shadow of the Mother.  It IS possible to bring our attention inward.... and where our intention goes, our attention flows and our energy grows.

The Seven of Pentacles invites us to remember our own life purpose, our own shine.  To begin creating and remember that the most impactful influence we can have is walking our talk and living life in inteGRITy.  That type of way showing can never be take another's right to process and is in right relationship.  Use the remainder of this moonth to follow what delights you.  Rekindle a lovership with yourself and just watch how it ripples outward!

🐻 MOONDAY Tarot Message for DECEMBER

Bear

Squirrel

Get Curious

High Priestess

December is a moonth requesting tender self care, curiousity, comfort and wisdom as we step into the invitation of re-patterning.   How might our lives shift if we can become curious about one another, about our personal habitual reactions and about what feels good in the body?

This Message comes with the reminder that we have been through a lot these last few years... compassion goes a loooong way when considering how we speak to or think about ourselves and each other.  Bear reminds us that we are both resilient and in need of nurturing.  Squirrel gives us the reminder that preparedness is supportive, but worry and running harried is destructive.

Get Curious - this archetype brings us a message of spaciousness.  The more we can override our assumptions and reactions and lean into true curiousity... the softer we can become.  The more we can receive.  And the easier we are received by those around us.

The High Priestess reminds us to lean on the wisdom of the magnetic polarity.  The innate wisdom in our bones of how to be soft and responsive to an ever changing environment.  The learned wisdom of the body and your Ancestors.
