Letting Go and Innocence

Happy International Mermaid Day 🧜‍♀️🐚💫

Your cards from my Messages from the Mermaids deck are, Letting Go and Innocence 🩵

LETTING GO
Keep hope in your heart by letting go. It’s possible to salvage something you thought was lost by releasing any attachments and letting go.

This mermaid wants you to know the power of letting go. If love leaves your life, remember to count the beautiful blessings of the impact this love had on you. It’s easy and normal to feel bitter or angry, but this will only delay the process of healing your tender heart. Try to forgive and

surrender any pain or feelings of loss. Allow your tears to flow as you let go of what was and embrace what will be.

Letting go can be challenging, but with this release comes a greater and deeper joy as time heals any sadness. If the love lost refers to a partner or spouse, know that your relationship was part of your divine destiny. It’s helped lead you to the place you’re in now.

If you’re letting go of love lost from a family member or the end of a friendship, know that destiny never gets it wrong. Everyone has the right amount of time with you on this planet. Counting the blessings gained from your connection helps to heal the feelings of sadness and loss as you let go.

Love lost may also apply to a beloved pet or an animal companion. Animal lovers feel the loss of love deeply, too, and the process of healing is the same. Take the time to remember the happy times and feel the divine blessings from your connection.

Saying this affirmation can help with the process of letting go: I’m open to the swift and total healing of my heart as I practise letting go so that I may embrace the golden future that awaits.

INNOCENCE
Focus on innocence as you navigate through the current situation. The purity of your innocent heart will guide and protect you through challenging times.

This mermaid protects her heart, for this is the home of innocence. This delicate yet paradoxically strong part of ourselves, can feel or appear corrupted as we journey through life, yet in truth, it’s always pure.

Innocence is a protection against the harshness and cynicism of life. Staying true to your innocent heart is the correct course of action.

If you’re caught up in a legal battle or a court case at the time this card appears in your reading, your innocence is highly likely to be revealed and upheld as long as you hold on to integrity and honesty.

Whatever you’ve done in life, remember that your soul is eternally innocent. We all have the ability to connect with our original childlike essence of innocence, even in adult life. Innocence has no age limit, it’s a natural state of being that you can reclaim right now.

Living in innocence has a magnetic beauty that others will be drawn to instinctively. They will wish to be in your presence for there’s an aura of purity surrounding you.

Is someone around you taking advantage of your innocent nature? Perhaps they are mistaking it for gullibility? Remember that your innocence is also your strength, and it will serve as protection in times of need.

Mermaid and Mer-Fairy Ritual

Mermaid and Mer-Fairy Ritual

If you follow me on social media, then you’ll know that I connect with all elementals, including the mermaids and mer‐fairies. So, I just had to share this enchanting oceanic ritual with you.

If you’re able to visit a beach for this ritual, that would be perfect. However, I realize this won’t be possible for everyone, and I have devised this ritual so that anyone can connect with the mer‐beings, whether they are inland or close to the sea.

Get some pure water – ideally from a natural spring, or mineral or filtered water. Next, get some salt – ideally natural salt with no additives, as many salt products have anti‐caking agent in them.

Find a lovely container – perhaps a ceramic or glass bowl. If you have an aquamarine container that reminds you of the ocean, that would be ideal, but it isn’t essential.

Put a few pinches of the salt into the container. Then put your clean fingers into the water and let the drips fall onto the salt. Stir the salt and water together, while saying the following:

With water and salt, to symbolize ‘sea’, may mer-fairy wisdom reside within me. So it is, and so ‘shell’ it be.

Close your eyes and place your finger onto your third eye area (between your eyebrows). Feel the energy of the salt water cleansing your third eye, and energetically connecting you to the mer‐beings. Sit for a while and absorb this beautiful energy. Allow your mind to drift and see what floats into it.

When you feel ready, open your eyes and ground yourself. Drink some water (not the salt water!), then put the water in your container outside, or place it on your fairy altar (see page 15) and let it evaporate.

After this exercise, ensure you drink water regularly. Drinking water will keep you connected to this energy, and it’s good for your physical body, too.

MOTIVATION

Motivation

When spring approaches, the Flower Fairies urge you to ‘spring’ into action. If there’s something you’ve been merely thinking about doing, they say get busy and do it.

The Flower Fairies, also called pillywiggins, are super‐excited to fly into your cards! They know you have a special task at hand and they’re here to encourage you to get on with it. Working with flower essences, aromatherapy and scented candles will help you to tune in to the Flower Fairies – the scent of a flower can have a powerful healing effect on your mind, body and spirit. Perhaps you could bring some fresh flowers into your home, ideally still growing on the plant rather than cut flowers. Wearing colourful clothing in the same shade as your favourite flowers can also help you to feel uplifted, as well as brightening the day of anyone who sees you. Whilst visiting Rajasthan, I was told that the women who call that region home are referred to as ‘Flowers of the Desert’ because of the bright colours they wear; seeing them certainly lifts the spirits.

Call on the Flower Fairies if you feel you’re lacking motivation. It’s said that the best way to get something done is to ask a busy person – or, in this case, some busy fairies! They might not do the job for you, but they will certainly help to motivate you. You can connect to them easily by being outside next to some flowers, or inside your home near a pottedplant in bloom, and saying: ‘Flower Fairies, I call on thee to motivate and inspire me!’ The Flower Fairies will leave a sign or two over the coming days or weeks – just pay extra attention so you don’t miss the creative ways in which they impart their flowery wisdom.

MAGICAL GATEWAY

My intuitive message for this card on the day of the Lunar Eclipse. Are you ready to step through the magical faerie gateway to yoursELF! This lunar eclipse gives us the opportunity to leave behind that which no longer serves our growth. So gather your courage and prepare to release, so you can boldly step through the magical gateway, and into a golden future ✨🧚🏻‍♀️🚪💫
The card is from my pocket Oracle of the Fairies, published by Hay House with art by Ginger Kelly✨🫶🧚🏻‍♀️💫

Guidebook Message

It takes courage and trust to venture into the unknown, yet this is where the greatest rewards are. It’s time to step boldly forward without looking back.

The fairies are asking you to step through the fairy door and into their world of magic and wonder. They’re telling you that fairy tales are real and that you’re never too old to believe in fairies. Perhaps you’ve been thinking about embarking on the fairy path? If you’re using this deck, the chances are

you already have more than a passing interest in the ways of the fae. If so, now is the time to walk through the fairy door and fully embrace your magical fairy self. The golden key to this fairy door resides inside your heart.

It’s important to know that once you step through this magical doorway your life will be changed. You’ll see and feel nature in a deeper way; you’ll feel more connected to the plants, trees and flowers and develop a deeper compassion for all living things. You might even find yourself becoming vegan or vegetarian, if you’re not already. Your interest in conservation and the environment could also be heightened. These are all traits of someone who has ventured through the fairy door, so consider this carefully.

If you’re at all unsure whether you should walk through the fairy door, meditate on the question until you know in your heart that it’s the right thing to do. Once you’ve passed through the door, prepare for more magic and joy to enter your life, knowing that you’re always safe, protected and loved.

With love, light and magical fairy blessings
