May’s Herbal Allies: Playfulness & Heart-Healing

Happy May!

Marshmallow and Raspberry are our herbal allies for May—soft, spiky, sweet, and resilient.

In this month’s video, we embark on an exploration of Beltane, centered on the Egyptian cat goddess Bast (Bastet). We weave together goddess wisdom, plant medicine, crystal allies, and animal guidance to support a season of love, playfulness, and heart-healing.

May you be playful this month. May you pause to listen to your heart. And, may you savor sweetness in the ordinary moments

Reminder: I do create monthly handbooks for members of our Goddess Magic Mystery School community and May’s handbook is available here.

Expanded post available here.

Questions to explore:

  • Do you know how to play as you are now (at this age, in this season of life)? What does play mean to you today?
  • Where might you be trying to “straighten” what is meant to be delightfully cattywampus? What would it feel like to bless the imperfect instead of fixing it?
  • Where can you soften in your life—physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually?
  • What rough edges are currently rubbing at your spirit, and how might you soften them?
  • Where do you feel “thin,” leaky, or drained in your life or energy body right now?
  • What fears or resentments are hurting you from the inside out? What would it look like to begin releasing even a little of that today?
  • If your heart could speak freely, what would it say it needs in order to remember how to be whole?
  • What idea, project, or dream are you ready to make manifest in this season?
