Blessings of 2011

Merry Meet,

This will be my final blog post of 2011 and in a timely fashion I would like to share with you all my gratitude for everything I've learnt and achieved in this past year.

I began 2011 poorly with Swine Flu and was completely off my food. I had to endure quite a lengthy recovery which didn't fully leave me until the end f February. :( During this time I really learnt the power of positive thoughts and affirmations. My mantra became "I am in perfect and divine health. I have a strong and healthy body and immune system."

March onwards I decided it was time to LIVE my life to the full. I embarked upon a health and fitness regime which has seen me lose around 3 stone in weight this year. A huge acheivement for me, and one that I want to continue in 2012.

I gave my all to everything I've done this year, and as my work at a primary school has developed, I acheived something rather big in my eyes. I found the confidence to stand up infront of a class of 33 children and teach them every week for Religious Education. Something I will be continuing into 2012 also.

My spiritual career as a writer and as a psychic has seen me achieve so much that I am proud of. It was during 2011 that my very first magazine columns were printed and delivered around the world in FAE Magazine, as I became their exclusive Faerie Whisperer. I also was lucky to be given a column in online magazine; Magickal Media where I write about my witch pathway. I have also featured in Lightworkers Magazine in their *Once upon a time...* feature where my Faerie Pathway was the highlight. Chat It's fate magazine published and printed a Crystal Quiz I wrote in their annual, a topic and style of article I'd never written before.

Lately my spiritual path has taken a dramatic turn as I focus more on my pagan pathway, working with the Goddess more closely (whom has guided me to work with Mermaid Energy in my teachings...more about that next year), and even the interest of Kabbalah has guided me to a pathway of self control and the knowledge that I can work on the areas of my life that I have neglected. For me it's all about taking full control of my destiny.

I simply cannot wait to begin working on my destiny, and would normally begin around the 3rd or 4th of Jan... not this year (2012), I am starting on the 1st because I simply have so much to do and cannot wait to see the results of it all.

So to end 2011, I want to say THANK YOU to you ALL
THANK YOU

I will see you in 2012!!!

Lots of Love & Goddess Blessings

A busy Faerie Witch

I realise I haven't blogged on here since the 16th October and that really makes me sad. I remember creating this blog as a way of spreading my voice and then slowly I began to find less and less time to blog, so you became less and less able to know what's going on in my life. So do we ever 'make' time to continue working on things that have strong meaning for us? Can we 'make' time?
I believe we can, but I also know how hard it is to go to work, come home, have family time, work on your writing career, relax and then find time to update websites, social media sites, and then blog. Sometimes blogging is just too much hard work...I even think sometimes that I've forgotten how to blog so I may use some time this weekend to have a travel around your blogs and re-coach myself on how to blog!
I love my blog and know that I really should make time for it, and hopefully I will one day be able to manage my time more effectively...(I am learning...I'm slowly getting there...I promise).

So what have I been upto?

Well, I've taken on more responsibilty at work as a teacher, I'm now not only assisting in the classroom but am teaching the lower ability children Numeracy (maths) and Literacy (English) 4 days a week with no input from the main class teacher. I also teach the whole of year 4 RE which I enjoy, especially this term as we are learning about Christmas and I'm able to sprinkle in some info about Yule...I had to!

I've had another column published with *Magickal Media* where I am *The Faerie Witch Inside*, I mainly share my faerie wiccan beliefs through a type of diary entry...well, sort of. I write from the heart about what I feel readers will be interested in.

FAE Magazine, the Winter issue is out now, so make sure you Purchase a Copy to read my latest column all about the Snow Queen and how she can help you over the coming months.

I haven't been able to write my Morning Pages since going back to work, I simply haven't got time :( well I haven't organised my time correctly.)

I had an amazing experience with 11/11/11 yesterday, you can read all about it here

I'm also spending time writing my first ever book about faeries. It's exciting and rather cleansing as I write about my journey, it can also be raw at some times but I trust in the process.

Please come and join my Facebook Page if you haven't already, it's the one sure way that you can connect with me on a daily basis!

Right, I am off to read your blogs and learn how to write a blog properly again haha.

Lots of Faerie Blessings,
Aurora

A Busy Witch Without Her Broom!

Merry Meet my lovely witchlings,

I cannot believe it's been so long since I last posted in August. You can definately tell that I am back at work. With me posting again now, you should also be able to tell that im due a holiday soon! I should quickly express my sincere and huge gratitiude and elation that I have Samhain off work this year!!!! I am so happy!!

Right let's get down to business, what have I been upto? Well to say that I am without broom right now is an understatement. I know like I have a hole in the head that when you live your *Earthly* life you are to face strains, struggles, happiness and stress. I also know that you are supposed to, as a Witch, draw upon your belief system, that magick within to keep you stable, happy, comfortable and stress free. So why is it that everytime I have extra responsibilities placed upon me from work regarding my teaching, personal relationships with friends, romantic stirrings, and University activites and assignments, so I still NOT use that knowledge I have????? Hmmmm???? "I'm waiting!..." (By the way, that was me asking myself, not you...)

Seriously no wonder broom got up and left lol. Well, I have a nice witchy feeling going on inside me, I think due to the approaching holiday season of Samhain, and I want my broom back. I've seen a couple of books I want. Whenever I think of books I want and talk to others about them, I imagine myself as that witch in "Hocus Pocus" when she squeals "Booook!" out of the window lol. I even have the sound of her imprinted in my mind.
Well the ones im thinking of are; Silver Ravenwolf's 'Hedgewitch' (it really is quite good!), Silja's 'Green Book of Shadows' (there are lots of delightfully witchy spells in this one and its in full colour and illustrated which to me, provides stimulating insteadof a boring book with just words on white pages... I like a bit of something different now and again.

Other news, work. I have lots of new responsibilities. I am now in charge of distributing "Maths Packs" to 46 children in the school. It's basically a maths themed game that the children get to take home on a weekly basis and play at home. It's really good, the only downside is that every Monday I have to trawl across the school getting 46 children's games and then taking them new ones. :( ho hum.
I'm also being set free on teaching Religious Education every week to year 4 from after the Samhain holiday. And for my first proper Half term of teaching the subject, i'm delighted to be teaching "Angels". We're covering Guardian Angels, proving their existence, and their belief in them. I'm really excited. Also I will be teaching once a week a Literacy Skills lesson where I literally boost their english skills such as understanding non-fiction & fiction, their differences etc, and things like how to write more exciting sentences. Along with those skills I'll be doing Numeracy skills. Along the same lines.
ALSO ( I should have warned you it was going to be a long one!) I am in charge fo teaching Year 6 children (10-11 year olds) Level 6 Mathematics as no-one else in the school can do it. Im in charge of how I do it, as long as I get them to a level 6! No pressure hey?!

Right, more news...... oh yes!!! I have a new man in my life... Alex. He's italian/Portuguese and completely handsome. It's really good. Im really happy and we have lots fo fun together. The past two weekends I've stayed at his home and it's been lovely to just be with each other doing normal stuff. We even changed the bedroom round today. He's older than I am, but it's perfect, he's a grown up and not an immature idiot. I love him and he loves me. That's all i'm saying, as unlike before when I've shouted about my relationships from the rooftops, I'm wanting to keep him all to myself lol. (possessive or what!) lol.

Well, that's it for now, but I plan on updating you next weekend as I'll be on my jolly Samhain holidays!!!

Peace, Love, Happiness and Faerie Blessings,
Blessed Be

Sacred Art

Merry Meet again,

I'm back! After having a day where I've literally thought about everything as at the moment I'm very wary of myself, I am here to have a little moan, well ok, more of a rant for what it is right!

Ok so let's say that someone out there has seriously caused a huge tidal wave today in my family. Yes a tidal wave, which right now can I say "How dare they!!" This tidal wave has caused me to turn into a complete and utter ass, and really rock the boat of the relationship that is between me and my sister! Ok it's not all this person's fault, I take responsibilty for not being at peace with who I am and really jumping the gun.

My extremley talented sister, Pixie Allen over at Red Pixie's Fantasy Art has worked so bloody hard with everything she's done. Everything. I've literally watched her art grow from the tiniest poppy seed into a whole Woodland filled with the most beautiful and fragrant flowers imaginable. Seriously she's freeking fab at what she does. So fab that I swear Dad's helping her art wise... In fact I know he's commented on her art from Spirit a few times. I know that he'd love her for everything she stands for! Well, I've been there when she's played with new art techniques, tried and failed (She never fails), and been overcome with enthusiasm for her art as much as she's felt like throwing the towel in. To be there everyday watching your sister grow like that as well as facing sheer shite in her life and I mean shite. She's so so strong! She might not think so sometimes, but she is! She's been a rock to me in my absolute darkest moments. She didn't have to be, but she chose to be!
Well anyway, as her art grew more and more beautiful with every brush stroke, we all began bugging her to sell them! I hope this idiot who sent the tidal wave over knows exactly how many times I (along with so many others) have had to convince this talented lady that YES YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH TO GO PROFESSIONAL!. Well, she finally did it! She was estatic with joy over this and has since grew a whole 'nother woodland full of beauty since. Some of this is still in the growing seed/germination stages but we know they will grow.
Now to find out that someone has copied her art that she came up with on her own, from her heart and soul, and has has the sheer audacity to set up shop like hers and sell it!!!! Well that PEEVS me off! It really does.
Well, how did this set me off on upsetting my sister? Well she told me via text about this...ok she told me in riddles but still, I shouldn't have assumed things. I thought she was on about me copying her! You see, I know she's been doing morning pages for a hile now and it was only this week that I enrolled on my Creative Writing course that covers morning pages. Until yesterday I had no idea what they were! I've also joined up to an art studion online that she's been a part of for ages. (Do you see where my paranoia came from?) And also we've both taken a huge step in a healing pathway, we've done our Reiki Master's and I came up with a art idea for my Reiki. Well I put 2+2 together and came up with 456!!! Seriously. My own insecurities as a person who's been on the recieving end of someone copying ever move I've made online with my *Faerie Whisperer* career got the better of me and I got seriously paranoid. (I now know that I need to sort these issues once and for all). I thought Id become the horrible person that can stoop so low as to take from another that what does not belong to them! So I removed her from my friends on facebook. (My sister that is) It caused a bit of a barny, and needless to say, we've both ended up hurt and extremley raw!

Now I hope she can forgive me, I really do, because I love her lots. I respect her, I admire her and she INSPIRES ME daily!

So I am saying, from the deepest ocean of my heart, Pixie, My lovely sister, I am so so so sorry for hurting you, I never meant to and I hope you can forgive me and that we can move forward from this. I love you so much.

And to the person who dared to set this tidal wave off, perhaps you didn't know it would cause this much heartache! But you need to look in the mirror and really think about what you see. Think about your morals and standards. Because I really don't know how you can sleep at night. To copy someone's hard work is the lowest of the low! I don't know who you are personally, but I have no respect for you. If you only knew what it feels like to have someone copy your work and try to clone you, you'd realise it is so painful to live with it. To be constantly hurt becuase someone has the cheek to take that which is not theres, to take your hard work and iterally trample on it, well.... I have no words for that. Your seemingly *innocent* actions have caused more trouble than you'll ever know today. I hate myself for allowing you to have done that! I'm to blame for my part. I should have been comfortable with who I am. I accept that, but you need to take responsibilty as well. Appologise and stop it!

All art is sacred, whether it is your own, a family member's, a friends, or even someone you merely know. That art is sacred whether it be music, art, writing, a design of some sort, or even the way you wear your clothes.

Also, one last word, Pixie, you said to me today "Nothing is Sacred". Well my lovely, you are sacred. Do you know why? Because there is only 1 of you and I wouldn't change you for the world. Im proud of who you are! Im proud for what you are! So, you see, something is sacred. YOU!!!! xxxxxxxxxx

Onwards & Upwards ~ Ascension Style

Merry Meet my lovely little Witchlings,

Well You will be pleased to hear (at least I hope will be) that since I decided to take back my own power two days ago, my life is getting truly amazing!!

I got up this morning with such a spring in my step I haven't been able to stop smiling! Seriously. I even texted my Sis Pixie Allen over at Pixie's Musings this morning with my excitement at how positive I am feeling. <<< Did you see that? I said "I AM FEELING" not "I was feeling" !!! Seeeeeeeee I told you I was feeling fabulous, bet you didn't believe me did you??? Ahh well anyway, It all began when I started reading a Law fo Attraction book, And I really read it. I even stuck post it notes in the best parts. They are still stuck there to be honest. Then I decided that I wanted to not just teach about Faeries and nothing else. Yes Faeries are huge part of who I am, but not the whole complete package. I wanted to teach about crystals and herbs and ascension! So I took back my power and started doing just that on my facebook page. (Which by the way you are all most welcome to come and join. Click here to *like* my page and join)
Since this my own personal energy has dramatically improved to the state im at now. I can't wait to fly higher on this wonderful energy Im experiencing right now. Im attracting more and more people to my page & profile, new friends who are of the higher spiritual energy. Then it clicked *CLICK* (LOL) I'm not supposed to teach all the basic stuff... of course I can drop the odd bits in to help those of the Lower-Higher energies, but I'm supposed to teach about the Ascension Process and how all these spiritual beings are there helping us. To do this I HAVE to incorporate my Faerie Wiccan pathway. All this equals a hugely happy me. In fact when I say I feel happy, *happy* doesnt even touch it.

Today I was thinking about ascension before having a bath (as you do!) and I found myself becoming aware of all this new faerie energy, more powerful and elightened that I'd experienced before. They were of the Elemental Masters Soul Group and they communicated to me all about the ascension process and how they are helping us and Mother Earth to ascend. So I'm going to write about it. Not just yet, but when they ask me to.

Right now, Im refreshing my memory on all the things I know about ascension and am teaching people through my page on facebook and through my writing. Thoth visited me last night to tell me that he's here when I need him to help me with my writing. I feel so peaceful knowing that The Goddess is looking out for me, and that Thoth is there guiding me.

I will tell you the 5th dimensional chakra colours that you can meditate with instead of the *normal* colours. If you feel ready, you can now open the related chakras to the following colours;

Base Chakra ~ Platinum
Sacral Chakra ~ A luminous Pale Pink
Navel Chakra ~ A glowing Orange
Solar Plexus Chakra ~ Gold
Heart Chakra ~ White
Throat Chakra ~ Royal Blue
Third Eye Chakra ~ Transparent (like a crystal ball)
Crown Chakra ~ Crystal of the thousand Petalled Lotus
Causal Chakra~ Pure White (located above & slightly behind the crown chakra)
Soul Star Chakra ~ Magenta
Stellar Gateway ~ Gold


On a more normal front, yesterday was my beautiful Princess Pepsie's 12th Birthday!She had a gorgeous Pink Princess tent bought for her and even her very own star wand. No im not crazy... or a parent... Pepsie is my little Kitty!! So Happy Birthday to her!!! She had a fabulous day and is all party pooped out! To be honest, we're all quite tired. Im tired because Ive been up since half 5 this morning. I slept downstairs you see... oh don't ask, it involved a huge black moth flying around my room the night before that I happened to have thought was a bat!!

Ahhh well, there you go, another update into the Witch Inside's life.

**Ooooo if you have my Blog Button on your page, can you please change it to the new code. The page address here has changed. It's no longer AuroraRevelaed... its TheWitchInside!!!! YAY!!!!!

Oh and before you all go and leave me again, 2 things. 1) please share my blog with anyone who you think will enjoy it anmd encourage them to follow it (THANK YOU!!!!!) and 2.) This whole entire blog post is Dedicated to PIXIE ALLEN at PIXIES MUSINGS !!!! She'd never forgive me if I didn't LOLOL

Random Ramblings

Didn't really know what I wanted to discuss on here tonight, so thought a Random Ramble might be in good order. I just wanted to connect with you all again, and as my super sis said, I just wanted to *Write from my heart*.

I'm working more with crystal energies which is fantastic as I havent felt comfortable with them for a long time, but now, Im discovering a new love for Tigers Eye, Lemurian Seed Quartz, Moldavite and Black Tourmaline. Oh and Moonstone. I cant seem to get on with Rose Quartz at the moment, I'm very receptive to it right now which is a shame.

The past few nights, I've been having strange dreams, last night I dreamt my postman (who is very friendly) decided to send me a note to let me know he wasnt doing his rounds for a week or so cause he'd got Man-Flu.... seriously what was that dream about?!! LOL Crazy Faerie Witch!

On a hugely positive note, University have contacted me today after like 3 months to tell me I can in fact resubmit my last assignment to gain another 30 credit points!! WooHoo!! That has seriously cheered this witch up.

Mum & I are getting on a heck of a lot more, not that we have huge rows, just that we can get quite ratty with each other. We're making plans and having a laugh now.

I got a new WormWood plant too!!!! Im in love with this beauty. Its definately male, and is coming along lovely, so quickly. I am hoping to go back and get another one... no not for me, Im not greedy, but to send in the snail mail all the way to Blackpool to my lovely sis.

im becoming a lot more domesticated of late too! I know, thats a tough one to picture isnt it? I can now boil a kettle and switch the washing machine on LOL

I feel that I want to work more with Ascended Masters, and have been *playing* with my Ascended Master cards, and jotting down writing ideas for articles I want to write. I now need a good kick up the witchy bum to write them lol.

Right well I hope this blog has been of interest to you, and that you're still awake, if you are, well done!!

Blog Soon!!

Witchy Blessings,

The Former Lost Witch Returns a Located Faerie-Witch

Merry Meet my darling little witchlings,

I have so dearly missed you all more than you realise. I have been a rather lost witch inside of late flitting from project to project and straining to pop by and leave a post. Very bad Witch!!

All that is now going to change. I have missed you for far too long, I've missed this part of me. You see, I have allowed other aspects of my life to consume me and take over *who I am*. Yet I was not being the true me.

Today enough was enough, I ceased writing Faerie-Scopes as they are far to common in my eyes, and I'm not a common Faerie Witch, I don't behave like one, and I'm certainly not going to begin following the crowd of sheep.
Yes I am a writer, Im a teacher in a Primary School, and I'm a witch yet I was missing out the latter to focus upon the Faerie side of me. To a certain degree it was fulfilling me, but not of late. I realised that I'd been neglecting the witch inside and by doing so I was giving away my own power, no one has been taking it, I've been giving it away to people who don't deserve to be told the time of day in my eyes. Not anymore, I am in my own power again, taking back is rightfully mine, no doubt I'm going to have a few wobbles, but hopefully you'll all be there to catch me if I start to fall. But I am determined to be the True Witch Inside once more.

Blessed Be
