If you are new to healing, spiritual development or exploring faith alongside spirituality, there are some wonderful resources available online that can help you learn more in your own time and at your own pace.
Bible Gateway is a well-known online Bible resource where you can read, search and study scripture in a wide range of translations. Whether you are looking for comfort, guidance, inspiration or simply wish to explore the teachings of Christianity more deeply, it provides an easy and accessible way to spend time with the Bible from wherever you are.
We have also included a link to Christian Spiritualism, a website dedicated to exploring the connection between Christianity and spiritualism. (This will include the archives of THE ZODIAC MESSAGES ) The site shares information on spiritual healing, mediumship, churches, events and spiritual philosophy, helping visitors better understand how faith, healing and communication with the spirit world have been approached within Christian Spiritualism for many years.
Walking into my dark kitchen to force myself to have some green tea before retiring, I thought there had been a snowfall, for my garden was lit up in luminous white. It was, of course, the light from the full Hunter’s Moon. That moon had accompanied us all the way home from church last night, and earlier that day I was singing along with a beautiful song holding many memories. ‘It’s a wonderful night for a moondance.’
The Hunter’s Moon is generally the October full moon, but sometimes occurs in November, and is named so because she gave extra light and clearer vision to those hunting in days gone by. The leaves that had fallen also gave clearer visibility to hunters and not much camouflage for the hunted! Different Native American traditions also give names such as the ‘Freezing Moon’ and ‘Falling Leaves Moon.’
Her spiritual symbolism is that of preparedness and getting ready for what is ahead, and also a letting go of old habits and ways, ready to embrace the new. She did become full before most of us rose this morning in the UK, at 4.12 am, but she will still be gorgeous if the skies clear tonight.
Spencer Rose, our good friend, visited last night. He shared some truly inspired thoughts straight from spirit and gave some very detailed messages. We do love it when you visit us, Spencer. Thank you so much!
Thanks to Steve for chairing in his relaxed style. And thank you to our readers, who were new to reading for the family. It was so nice to hear their beautiful prayers and readings. Thank you.
Carole had a blitz with cakes. Thank you! Julie ran our music. And we thank our healers, as always, and everyone who sets up, breaks down, and washes up!
Prayer of the week
Please pray for World Peace. Situations in this world demand it.
Whatever the weather this evening, it will still be a lovely night for a moondance!
A foggy morning earlier today, but still with a glow of autumn sunlight that cheered the soul on a decidedly chilly day.
The recent downpours have created the dampness we know so well, but don’t love quite so well! And the magical fungi are making their appearance in our woodlands.
There is no end of bracket fungus, and one type, ‘Chicken of the Woods,’ is growing out of tree trunks like plates, as if there’s no tomorrow! Their bright, light orangey colour is just perfect for the seasonal feel, but they can be parasites when growing on living trees.
Unlike us, fungi love the damp, as moisture is essential for their growth and reproduction. She gets her name from a reputation as an edible fungus, with a texture and taste often compared to chicken. BUT I wouldn’t get adventurous unless I was absolutely certain of her identification and knew she was safe to eat. Deer love this fungus, as do slugs, snails, and beetles. Well, enjoy, everyone! I’ll take a pass, thank you very much! Some things are best left!
*Spiritually, fungi can signify resilience and transformation, and breaking through constriction.
The sky is a brilliant blue again, and I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop! We have been so fortunate with our weather, but now we are in mid-October, and the chilliness is just now beginning to set in.
Last night, after all the downpours and damp, Sarah McLaughlan came to visit us in Chawton. What a lovely evening! Sarah shared her beautiful thoughts, reminding us that children are the future and represent the innocence needed in this world. She then shared some truly amazing clairvoyance! Thank you so much, Sarah! Alison Keogh chaired our evening.
We sang Happy Birthday to Carole and were in fine voice. Of course, Carole had made a delicious chocolate cake for us! Thank you to all our hospitality gals. Thank you to our readers and healers, as well as everyone who helps set up and breaks down at the end of the evening.
Oh, and the poppies are back, and are now available for a small donation!
PRAYER OF THE WEEK
Please pray for those suffering from starvation in our world.
It is unfathomable that hunger and starvation still exist because of political unrest, extreme climate and social factors. There IS enough food in the world to feed all.
