Diary of a Psychic Healer

Do the chakras link up with the planets? Activate  your energy field and connect with the planets consciously.  I first published this as a guest post on an astrology website. *** “One of the more exciting things about energy healing is the opportunity that it gives us to channel a variety of energies from Mother Earth and the Universe. We can learn to use energy meditations to connect with the Zodiac, bringing certain qualities into our personality or our environment. For example, if we want to bring love, friendship or tact into our lives, we would channel the energy of Libra, or the planet Venus. Gemini and its ruling planet, Mercury, help with negotiation skills and mental agility. Each of the 12 Zodiac signs and their ruling planets has specific spheres of influence. Energy Healing itself is simple, but because the planets are so powerful, it is best to begin by preparing our physical and emotional bodies to receive all of this energy! Step 1: Take Care Of Yourself Think ...

So a few years ago, I was contacted by  Leah Thomas , a writer for Cosmopolitan, with questions about what it was like to study astrology. I was mentioned in a piece on men and astrology, read it here . The questions below were sent by Leah. I am publishing the Q&A here with her permission.  So what's it like to study astrology and magick IRL? 🔮 Where did you receive your astrology education?   I studied with several teachers but the one that shaped my approach to natal astrology was Demian Allan’s  class, in 2015 .  It was held at The College of Psychic Studies in London. His intro to Psychic Astrology and Magick turned my understanding of the stars upside-down. Most notable was a session where Demian had us walk on energetically charged Zodiac signs to see how we responded to Aries’ fire, Capricorn’s steadiness or Scorpio’s depth. I began to view the planets and Zodiac signs as dynamic energies that we could interact with on a daily basis.  ...

I first became interested in astrology in 2008, having been a skeptic most of my life because, how could a person’s month of birth lead to exactly 12 personality types? People were more varied than that.  That changed when I found a book that divided the zodiac signs into three decans. The zodiac wheel is a circle of 12 signs, 30 degrees each.  People born during the first 10 degrees of a sign had that sign’s energy: 100% Leo or Virgo or Cancer. Those born in the next subset of 10 degrees had that sign’s qualities, with a specific variation. Those at the tail-end, another spin on the sign.  I finally recognized myself in the descriptions of a chatty and sociable Aquarius (3rd decan, sub-ruled by Venus).  I spent the next year reading astrology books and looking at my chart. Lots to see there...  Then in 2015, I took an  astrological magick workshop, one where we downloaded and interacted with the energy of the planets in psychic meditations. We each activat...

This article is a follow-up to my book, Chakra Healing & Magick - promised to share more on how the planets can impulse your life . I   first published this article on a friend and fellow blogger’s astrology site in July 2022.  *** As an energy healer and astrologer, making the jump to planetary magick and self-healing was predictable. The more aware we are of spiritual energy, the easier it becomes for us to connect with the Moon and with the rest of the planets on a day-to-day basis. Healing ourselves also makes these connections conscious - we feel the influence and respond thoughtfully. A big surprise was that we can also channel the planets with the intention to heal our lives. Doing so requires an understanding of how the natal chart is put together, and being able to pinpoint moments when it makes sense to connect with the planets - usually when they are transiting the Houses in the natal chart that relate to the issues that need a bit of healing. If you’re not fam...
