First of all welcome to all new subscribers, I’m delighted and honoured that you are here. If you want to know what to expect from me you can visit this post.
I infuse this community with love and magic with the intention that all who come into this space have a positive and uplifting experience. Together we are a mighty force of beings raising consciousness for the highest good of all. And so it is.
It feels as though the Summer Solstice has crept up on me, but I am in no doubt that the energy that is all around brings its telltale signs. I have been immersed in making my garden the sanctuary that I want it to be. I’ve been fully connected to nature and learning the names of so many flowers and plants. I’ve had consistent energy for the first time in a long time and I’m slowly nurturing the seeds and watching, watering and tendering what is to come.
Yesterday I visited a wild flower farm and loved drifting through the fields of colour and looking at the names and properties of all the flowers. Another nod to nature being so wonderful in its rawest state, to be allowed to do what it wants to, it finds a natural order. The same with us.
I also found a grass clearing in a near perfect circle, I’ve been here before and sensed that this place once had a special purpose. For gathering, for ritual, for sacred ceremony. It’s always interesting to feel the energy of a place that otherwise seems to hold nothing significant. On farmland, next to a tractor manufacturer and an airfield where you can see colourful parachutes dropping from the sky at half hourly intervals. Maybe there is no coincidence that the wild flowers chose to be born here, a land rich in the history of honouring nature.
Ever since I wrote Glimpses and then this The Spark, fairies have been fluttering nearby. I sense their very real magic and my inner child is beyond excited that we have chosen to play again, although at times things are still far too serious, which I’m working on.
My inner child wanted me to look at a book that I’ve had since I was 4, I am now coming up to my 50th. It’s the Treasury of Verse by Enid Blyton. I remember it clearly because the illustrations are so beautiful. My favourite section was always the Poems about Fairies. It has delighted me just the same, so I thought I’d share a lovely poem with you.
Sweet-Pea Bonnets
Once I saw a sweet-pea with a little elf upon it,
And on his cheeky, golden head he tried a scarlet bonnet.
He smiled at me, a merry smile, and then he shouted gaily,
“I’ve got another sweet-pea hat, I like a fresh one daily!”
I said “It suits you very well, it is so light and airy,
It’s just the very bonnet for a cheeky little fairy!”
It may seem silly or fantastical to some, but I believe that these little winged messengers are coming close to me for a reason. The nudge to lighten up, to play, to be magical, to believe in the impossible, to fly. To know that small and quiet are mighty forces when you tap into the unseen. That where you may have underestimated yourself, you are beginning to see that not everything requires a big voice or pushing others out the way. You are a force of nature in whatever guise you take and whatever you believe in.
You are being asked tap into something that brings you joy, that makes you giggle, that fills your heart with love. I’ve spent so long not connected to my inner fairy that I am ready to dust off my wings and test them out for flight.
As a celebration of the Summer Solstice, as an invitation to join me on this new adventure, we step in to the circle where our imagination can take us anywhere. If you are on the cusp of transformation, on the edge of tipping over into something new, let this energy be your guide, let the wonder of nature and the many messengers that dance and celebrate at this time be with you now.
The Fairy Circle
As we come to this blessed time, we come to you with reason and rhyme.
We come to you to make a merry dance, there is nothing that happens here by chance.
Enter the circle and you will see, that there is magic abound, there is some things you cannot see.
Others are there in the blink of an eye, you turn and you see a glimmer, a shimmer go by.
There is sparkle and light as the fireflies flitter, they bring their delight, they bring a new meaning, new life, they spread their glitter.
This night is not just special, it’s a tine to change, there is a light that went out, but we bring you what will ignite the flame.
As we make merriment of this longest of days and night, there is bountiful joy and celebration, a time to put things right.
To let go of regret, of anguish and pain,
to paint a new picture, to wear a new crown,
to build a new ladder that reaches up to the sky.
You will soon know when, how, the naming of it, the why.
For this time as the seasons of the wheel turn, we know that you have been given so much to learn.
You place into the fire all that is in the past, you whisper into the flames all that you would ask.
This is a time when you are hungry for more, please feast and be plentiful, there is more than enough for all.
Kindness and love are spreading through the land, you are creating new worlds with your own pair of hands.
Here is the very best of what is to come, you can finally find the place called home.
You are here to make a difference, you are now in plain sight, you came with a gift, you came with a right.
No more will you be lost, no more will you drift, see the feather,
see the signs and bring the new you to settle and honour what you have seen through the mist.
As the dawn of a new day signals the dawn of a new age, we celebrate all that you are, we celebrate this turning of the page.
Hold a candle, hold a flame, take a nod to your ancestors, they all gather now and watch this season emerge with you.
See the tiny insects, see the butterflies and the rutting of the deer. See that large and small, they all have their place,
take your seat at the table, it is offered with grace.
Rest your weary head, place your feet in the dewy grass, when it is time lay down and let Mother Earth cover you, let yourself rest.
There is time tomorrow to begin a new chapter, you have days ahead that will be filled with joy and laughter.
For now be proud of all that has been done, as you close you eyes and drift in to sleep you are whole, complete, you are one.

So much magic in this, Louise! And I felt like so much of it contained gentle whisperings directly to me! Thank you! It made me smile so much. Happy Solstice! xo
Love this Louise - so sweet and magical. To get small, to see the world in a new perspective! That of the insects and fairies! To sparkle, glitter and shimmer with them. To open our hearts and wings... and fly! 💜
