Setting the Tone for 2024 with Dragon and The Morrigan

What happens when you blend working with the Morrigan with the energy of the Year of the Dragon?


It’s been a POWERFUL fiery start to 2024 – year of the DRAGON.

How are you doing moving through the current new year energies?  I am curious what you are experiencing and feeling and if you are feeling all that I am about to discuss here too.

Let me know in the comments if this resonates at all with you.

Here is what happened by the day’s end of January 1st:

  • The sun kicked of the strongest CME since 2017 causing all kinds of energetic and radio disturbances.
  • The planet mercury stationed direct. So, the next 2 weeks will be time for more integration.
  • Profound vivid dreams
  • Internal ruffling of our feathers and more.

This continued through the week that impacted my physical strength & wellness that required more rest, grounding, and self care. These dark night’s of the soul bouts can be a real kicker.

This past Monday, on 1/1, we held sold out “Setting the Tone in the 2024 New Year” event. In general, what I heard folks want for 2024 was less stress, fear, and anxiety and to live more authentically.

But how does one do this actually?

We all want to DO this, but the question always remains HOW?


My How

The answer is simple and complex. The first step is knowing HOW you process something. If you do not know how, it begins with

STOP

Pause

Breathe

What is the action step

It requires unpacking cultural conditioning and religious dogma, courage to face hard truths, humility, and willingness to see things through a different lens knowing that your soul knows better than you to guide you through.

For nearly 20 years, I have blended all I have learned in plant medicine, energy medicine, rooted spiritual practices, sacred activism and my relationship to the spiritual world to help emPOWER folks to heal root issues, unpack cultural conditioning, and reclaim lost or stolen aspects and/or powers of themselves or their ancestors.

I am a multigenerational healer and intuitive that come from my paternal  Russian and my maternal Irish/Celtic bloodlines.

Over 53 years, I have been molded in such a way that makes me unique in the way I deliver a reading, or give spiritual guidance, or help someone transition in end of life or help someone facing cancer or domestic violence.

My approach is always deep, rooted, and integrated as taught since I was a child.


2023 Sucess Story

One of the biggest success stories of 2023 was a story of a 30yo female diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer who was told she would never be able to have children. She came to me for Reiki initially only to find out why she left her prior practitioner was due to the practitioner shaming her telling her that her sexual assault in her past was not a real trauma.

So the work began. Over the next 4 years, we unpacked old stories and belief systems, addressed root issues, recognized some of links to her breast cancer from her cell phone and unresolved trauma, and implemented spiritual based integrative therapies that were complimentary to her medical care.

We implemented strategies including coaching, herbal remedies, spiritual healing, a wellness team, past life and generational healing, somatic trauma therapies, meditation, medical intuition and more.

Last year, 2023, she was given the green light to try to have children. In the summer, she was discouraged a bit, but my intuition said September and possibly multiples. Well let’s just say Momma is carrying THREE healthy babies due to be born this spring.

I have countless stories like this and published NINE of them in the book the Secrets To Healing.


What I am Witnessing in 2024

One thing that showed up on Monday for folks was recognizing that you can not achieve what you seek if you are doing it through the old colonizer, patriarchal lens. A lens sometimes hidden in the blinders of our subconscious and unconscious being.

I find this is a MAJOR blind spot for so many folks as to why they are NOT where they want to be. It is only when things align in a certain way, they begin to see. We do not know what we do not know until it hits us and there’s the old saying “when the student is ready the teacher will appear”

Unfortunately, much of American society is NOT ready for this change, but many are starting to see for the first time. That gives me hope.


Working With The Dragon  & The Morrigan in 2024

So this past New Year’s Day, we worked with meeting our dragon ally to help us to see what we can not see, to help us to hear what we have not been able to hear, help us to feel what we have not been able to feel, and help sense what we have not been able to sense.

I also in an impromptu fashion delivered channeled messages from the Irish Goddess, the Morrigan. I had been sitting with her for about 3 hours before preparing for this event, and she could not wait to bust through and speak on the topic of unpacking cultural conditioning and reclamation.

I want to pause a moment and reflect on how I am leading forward in 2024 is birthing a strong fierce warrior with the Morrígan as my guide riding my dragon spirit (ryūjin) ally I have been fostering a deep relationship with over the last several years. That is some powerful stuff. No wonder I needed a few days to integrate before writing this newsletter.

The latest cosmic energy blast from the sun on New Year’s Eve and Day has only amplified all this… talk about a breathing cosmic fire storm (by the way, there is a forecast of MORE earthquakes and volcanic eruptions moving through 2024 as the sun begins to move into the peak of this solar cycle).

How we relate to our own darkness and shadows  – befriend and make peace with  – will determine how well we move through the energies of 2024.

This year, the energy and spirit of the dragon unfurls like an ancient tapestry, weaving threads of profound significance and transformative energies from the ancient scripts & spiritual ways of being. Working with dragons are no joke either, but it is fascinating how in the east, dragons are  god-like, etheric, and celestial. And in Europe, we demonize the dragon as a villain to slay. I have always wondered why, but more to come on that topic later.

Dragon energies for 2024 bring in a much needed ethereal wisdom. The presence of the dragon itself signifies a paradigm shift we are experiencing, a beckoning of humanity towards evolution, renewal, and spiritual awakening.

In the tapestry & cycles of life, the Dragon emerges as a harbinger of change, symbolizing the cosmic forces aligning to guide us through an era of profound introspection and growth. It signifies a time where the ethereal meets the tangible—a convergence of celestial energies inviting us to delve deep into the recesses of our souls.

This celestial alignment between the dragon and the Morrigan I am witnessing is not coincidence. It heralds a period where the cosmos whisper secrets of renewal, reclamation, rebirth, and the need for dismantling patriarchal conditioning and toxic capitalist systems. Wowza right? It encourages humanity to embrace change, shedding old layers of limitation and embracing the expansive realms of possibilities.

Think: strength, courage, bravery, resilience.

Now when I match up the dragon with the energies of the Morrigan, you got yourself some serious badassery happening.

I have incorporated working with the ancient Irish Goddess, The Morrígan, in my work over the last 9mo or so. To me, she is fierce, strong, and often mischaracterized by a colonized patriarchal conditioning. She is the voice who rises to stand up against systems of oppression. She is often an emblem of feminism for this reason.

My relationship with her is one of deep remembering, reclamation, and transformation.

I highly recommend working with her if called, but I caution you to do it with some guidance and support by someone who has been on this path, lived this path and walked this path for over a decade.  Yes, with time, daily practice and rituals, comes experience.


2024 As The Pilgrimage

I am exciting to be weaving my work with some indigenous sisters in Ireland and incorporating the Morrígan energy into A Sacred Pilgrimage To Ireland 2024 starting with a 4mo pre-trip immersion starting in February.

The Old Irish word for “Pilgrimage” is “turas” (tur-ahs).

Owen and Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin say that ‘Turas’ in Irish means ‘journey’, but it’s imbued with layers of meaning that resonate deeply with us. In our culture, a ‘turas’ is more than travel; it’s a pilgrimage, a voyage that weaves together the physical and spiritual realms. It’s about transformative experiences, self-discovery, and a profound bond with our land and its ancient mythology. The word captures the essence of setting intentions, pursuing meaningful paths, and nurturing growth.

A pilgrimage by definition is a journey, often into an unknown or foreign sacred place, where a person goes in search of new or expanded meaning about their self, others, nature, or a higher good through the experience. It is often a spiritual journey that can lead to a personal transformation or in this case also a reclamation, after which the person returns to their daily life as a different more empowered version of themselves.

This year – 2024 – is a year in itself of a pilgrimage. A sacred pilgrimage back to self, and an unpacking and burning away of old stories, belief systems, traumas, systems of oppression.

Both the Dragon and the Morrigan have a few things in common – dismantling systems of oppression, courage, fierceness, resilience and strength.


How I can support you in 2024

Together, let’s call on these wise spiritual beings into our lives and spiritual practices.

If you would like to learn HOW,

  • book a 1:1 session with me

Goup Past Life Regression With Jill Jardine

Have you ever wondered why you are fascinated by certain historical times or personages?

Past Life Regression can take you back to rediscover soul gifts and talents, from a previous incarnation. Past Life regression therapy can reveal the karmic connection you have with others.   Why did you marry that person? What is the unresolved karma from a past life?  Why does a certain person affect you in deep ways, whether you are inextricably drawn to them or can’t stand them?

Also, we may wonder why we have certain skills or talents that seemed to come very easily to us, even when we were young. Jill started doing astrology readings at 15 years old and as she got older, she knew she had gleaned astrological wisdom from previous lifetimes as a “Jyotisha” astrologer in India.  Also, when I was learning Sanskrit mantras, they were so familiar and easy for me to remember and pronounce. This was another skill set I had developed from a previous incarnation in India.  Perhaps the same one in which I became an advanced Jyotisha.

The first stage of the process is to induce the client into a moderately deep trance through various induction techniques. When the participant is induced, the PLR therapist suggests their subconscious mind take the client to a past life in which they developed a particular talent.  They connect with the past life personality, experience that lifetime through the past life person’s perspective, receive the gifts from the past life self, integrate the energies, and access wisdom from the Bardo State from the past life self.

Psychic Energy Update 1/18/22

Here is the numerology and cards for the week to reflect upon. Plus, energy updates starting a quick summary.  I will go into details below.

Astrology:

  • Mercury Retrograde 1/14/22-2/4/22
  • Venus retrogrades til 1/29/22
  • Uranus direct 1/18/22 (TODAY)
  • Full Moon 1/17/22 (Yesterday)

Cosmology

CME’s and Solar flares trigging Geomagnetic storm 1/16 and 1/18

Numerology

  • for 2022 = 6
  • Today: 16/7

#CardsForTheWeek:

Surrender Stubbornness: When I pulled this card in relation the numerology and energies as of right now, I heard a spirit whisper of “surrender resistance. Surrender the resistance of the flow of change and of natural laws”

“If you’re tensing up or taking a rigid stance about something, gently observe yourself and become more yielding. This will help you communicate more lovingly with others and yourself.”

Raven: All about Magic and owning your power.

Nine of Cups:  Satisfaction, Abundance, Reaping Rewards.


What does this all mean?

So today, we are coming off a VERY powerful full moon amplified by a geomagnetic storm from an incoming solar flare from the sun.

Some of you may have experienced sleep disturbances or elevated #triggers as we are being guided to surrender to the natural laws of the universe.

Mercury went retrograde this past Friday, 1/14/22 and Venus is still in retrograde to the end of the month on 1/29/22. Mercury will go direct on 2/4/22. This affects everything relational especially with self as well as anything regarding communication.

You might even feel a “tug o war” going on with the desire to rest, sleep, hibernate, organize, and plan mashing against the sudden urge to “get things done” or take action as Uranus went direct today.

Let me know in the comments below if this resonates with you as I do not know if what I post, or share helps you in any way.

Click here the 2022 energy forecast video. I go deeper into the numerology and themes for the year in that recording so I will not address it here.

Today is about cycles and flow. What cycles are you completing so you can move forward this spring, and how are you navigating that flow.

The recent solar storm activity just amplifies what already is, but if you are empathic or if you have health issues such as autoimmune disorders, mental health issues, or cardiac condition, you may have felt this. This could also trigger sleep issues such as overly exhausted yesterday but insomnia last night for those who are sensitive.

Are you resisting?

Are you making excuses?

Or are you pulling out your paddles in this grand flood of change and just steering however the Universe guides you?

The Raven is here to remind you of the magic you have inside you that maybe you have forgotten or ignored.

The Raven is a guide in the shadows and all that stuff you might feel lost. The raven will show you the way as the raven is between both worlds.

The raven also reveals a TRUTH you may not have seen before or even considered. Be sure to check your analytical brain or ego at the door and listen to the gut instincts.

Be sure your instincts are NOT coming from a place of triggers or trauma, but from a pure place.

The white artic fox in the 9 of cups card is a reminder of adaptability and purity.

The numerology is amplifying the raven energy and highlighting the shadow aspects that need to be resolved and dealt with – clearing out the mental, emotional, spiritual, physical clutter from your life so you are able to SEE clearly and OWN your power.

The 9 of cups is here to remind you that all this hard work will NOT go unrewarded in all areas of your life if you do THIS hard work that is asked of you.

This is a test of faith and a shift in your beliefs systems that are outdated.
Above all, this is a time to pull out your life raft.

Do NOT try to control others based on YOUR belief systems while ignoring another who may NOT share the same philosophy – This pandemic is an example of this.

Be open to ask questions. Be inquisitive.

Practice MORE empathy, compassion and understanding.

The news, political systems, Wall Street are all functioning from a place of ego.

Step away and tap into the wisdom of the soul as the soul knows YOUR truth.

Go there.

Be well my friends.

As always, your comments and feedback mean the world to me, and these posts are designed to guide you, but your feedback helps me help you more effectively.
