Surf the Planetary Waves and Unlock Your Light

We all have a purpose and I think that on some level, I'm here to talk about the stars. I first became interested in astrology in 2008 or 2009, 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. Then 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 astrology chart. Lots to see there... 

Then in the summer of 2015, I took two astrology classes that changed my view of the stars. An intro to psychic astrology with Demian Allan in London; we covered the technical and theoretical base, as well as intuitive applications. For example, walking on the zodiac to get a feel for its energy, or shaking a person’s hand to identify their dominant planet. Then came the real surprise of the summer - an astrological magick workshop where we downloaded and interacted with the energy of the planets in psychic meditations. Both classes by the same teacher. We each activated a talisman too. I went with the Moon to dial up my intuition and add Water to my life. 

Since then I’ve been exploring this topic and experimenting with my natal chart, as well as those of astrology & energy healing clients. As a healer, I focus on healing with astrology and magick, rather than the astrological magic that was popular 500 to 1200 year ago. But let’s take a step back and look at astrological magic… 

In the Middle Ages and before, it wasn’t common for people to know their birth date and place (other than royalty), so common folk turned to the stars for situational clarity, rather than self-awareness or life predictions. Questions to astrologers focused on the environment. 

Astrology back in the day …

Astrology was used to ask: “Is it a good time to begin X, Y or Z?” The answer to this type of question was found by looking at transits. The belief was that if the planets were well placed, good fortune was likely to follow. This approach could be used to: 

1) Minimize risk associated with new projects - keep in mind, the analysis goes far beyond a single transit. This could include anything: when to marry, negotiate a contract, ask for a raise, or sail across the Atlantic. Btw: I don't actually do this myself.

  

2) Download the undiluted energy of a planet as it travels through compatible zodiac signs so that we can benefit from the planet’s qualities. We can integrate those archetypes.

 

The second use is pure magic. It allows us to complement our talents and personalities with qualities that we might be short on, for example, confidence, business acumen, and organizational skills - or soft skills such as empathy, communication and diplomacy. 

Empowering Yourself With Astrology 

The planets are always active in our unconscious; we can connect with them at any time to balance our personal energy. We can also download and integrate any given planet’s attributes when the planet transits the Zodiac signs that enhance its energy – usually rulerships and exaltations. So for example, we might look to the Sun for courage, Mars for ambition, Venus for friendship, or the Moon for intuition – just as we would turn to Mother Earth for grounding. For example, we would connect with Jupiter when it travels through Sagittarius, Pisces or Cancer 🌊

The planets always send us energy, but their specific qualities cascade down to us with more clarity when they are in their strong signs, as will be the case with the planet of luck for the next year and a half. Jupiter gives us a turbo boost. We can also do a lot to catch that wave:

Believe In Yourself. The planet of personal growth and confidence. It’s worth mentioning that from an astrophysics point of view, Jupiter is made of hydrogen and helium - the same elements as the stars. But it did not ignite to become a star; Jupiter is indicative of where we need to believe in ourselves a bit more. Look inwards to find your light and power 💥

Expand Your Horizons. Each of the planets rules a theme in our lives, and a zodiac sign in the cosmos. Jupiter rules Sagittarius - this energy leaves home to experience new cultures, religions, adventures etc. Do what you can and try something new - travel, learn a new language, watch Netflix shows from other parts of the world. We can learn a lot from others; for example, I’m interested in the way that certain countries live their spirituality because of commonalities with my own culture. In terms of how spiritual those countries are, but also, where we make mistakes. Spiritual beliefs underpin our approach to life. It helps to see yourself through another culture’s eyes. Jupiter = perspective.

Growth Spurts. Jupiter pushes us to find our real limits, not the ones our conditioning imposes on us. We may come across new opportunities that scare or excite us. Stay positive (optimistic realism) and take on challenges. Think stretch goals. 

Ask For More. Jupiter is the planet of good luck, expansion and prosperity - people often ask for love or money. Years ago I felt like my intuition told me to ask for jet fuel (metaphorically). 

Want To Go Deeper? 

If you would like to know more about traditional astrology, Christopher Warnock’s book, Secrets of Planetary Magic, gives the reader a good understanding of pre-1700 astrology and the seven traditional planets. Chris Brennan, from The Astrology Podcast, looks at the Hellenistic period as well as more recent developments. I think it’s fascinating, but I'm not a traditional astrologer. However, it does help to read up on different schools of astrology, getting an understanding of how it all works, and how or why different approaches came about. So far, these have all been accurate.

🫶🏻 I tend to focus on modern psychological astrology, combining energy healing with the natal chart and planetary transits. I also practice magick, with the idea that magick is about who we become, as much as what we manifest. Jupiter is moving into Cancer this June - where its energy is exalted, or well placed. We have a year and half to make the most of that, particularly where intuition and emotional healing are concerned. It will also influence the part of your life that experiences this Jupiter transit directly. We can combine planetary transits with energy healing meditations, as discussed in my earlier blog post: Transform Your Life With the Light of the Stars. 

Today's post was partly inspired by natal astrology, and partly, by the planets and numerology class that I took in 2017. We can balance and integrate our planetary energies by undertaking specific activities ✨ Below is a Jupiter mantra from class. I quite like it because of the peaceful vibe. 

Remember - we can take steps to channel that energy proactively. Thank you for reading Diary of a Psychic Healer!!

Angels in the Universe

About ten years ago I started connecting with Archangel Orion - the angel of the stars. He helps us activate our cosmic potential from a healing point of view, with healing ourselves on a cosmic level, and also shaping our lives (manifesting).

I wasn't sure what that meant. How do we relate to the universe, literally and metaphysically? Then a few months ago, I was reading an english translation of the Sefer Yetzirah, an ancient text that maps out the Tree of Life and how it relates to angels, astrology, and the universe. 

The Sefer Yetzirah speaks in metaphors; one of the things it mentioned was that when we speak of healing on a cosmic scale, we are healing the darkness in the collective unconscious, in order to release more light. These pockets of darkness are said to reside throughout the Universe. We can heal where we plug into the collective, healing ourselves and the world at once. 

Anyhow, last week I was drawing a picture of the Tree of Life and I felt guided to black out three of the spheres: Yesod, Tiferet and Da'at. All three of these lie on the central column. Then Orion came to mind - referencing both archangel Orion and the three stars known as Orion's Belt, which I have always seen as important from a manifesting or creation point of view. 

My next clairvoyant image was of three of the transpersonal chakras, which sit directly over your head, in the Aura: the Soular Chakra, the Stellar Gateway and the Unity Chakra. I saw these lining up with Yesod (your emotional self), Tiferet (your Higher Self) and Da'at (the last gateway to the Divine). That one locks us into the first sphere on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life.  

Without going into too much detail, there are four worlds in the Kabbalistic scheme and each of these has its own Tree of Life. I believe that with this correspondence, we are clocking in at a higher level, and not necessarily in the physical or emotional worlds. We live in the fourth world - it's your physical body, but your consciousness overlaps with the rest. The third world, right next to ours, is the realm of the angels, planetary intelligences and of the stars. 

There are several archangels that focus on the collective: Archangel Dokiel the cosmic healer, Archagel Orion for manifesting and stars, and Archangel Raziel  💜

Archangel Metatron is present too; he is the one that helps us ground our energy and activate the transpersonal chakras, as discussed in previous blog posts. Lots of aha moments, but we need to start with the basics of healing ourselves individually. 

Thank you for reading my blog! 

Reiki hugs, 

Regina

Moon Magick: Transform your life with the light of the stars

This article is a follow-up to my book, Chakra Healing & Magick - I promised to share more on how the planets can impulse your life. Check out the Menu Bar for an introduction to astrology charts; this is an advanced astrology post. 

***

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 familiar with a natal chart, the 12 House relate to specific issues such as identity, love, income, friendship, home, and higher education. If we want to heal or impulse an issue, we can do so easily by connecting with the Moon as it transits that House and channeling its energy. 

 

We can connect with any of the planets to work our magick, each healing the issue from its point of view. For example, Mercury might reshape the way we think about life. Mars gives us drive to pursue objectives and get around setbacks and obstacles. But many of these planets take months or even years to circle through the Zodiac, whereas the Moon makes the rounds in 28 days. It also relates to home, the need for security and to the unconscious. Healing with the Moon is like like redecorating and revamping our home (Earth) life so that we feel cozy and secure. The idea is to connect with the Moon each month as it transits your natal chart, downloading its light and power, with the intention to heal, activate and impulse specific themes and situations. 

Step 1: Energy Healing Foundation

In the past we’ve discussed the chakras that can be activated to strengthen our connection with the planets and the solar system, bringing that energy into our lives with the intention to heal ourselves and to create shifts in our lives. As a healer, channeling the planets is fun and exciting, but it does require lots of grounding. We don’t want to lose our footing or burn out. Ideally, we’d start by grounding meditations, taking our attention to the Earth Star Chakra which can be found in the Aura below your feet. This energy center makes it easier for us to connect with Mother Nature and feel her energy, giving us deeper foundations to build on. 

Once that is done, we’d turn our attention to emotional healing as this opens us up to give, receive, and to experience life fully. This can be done in many ways - with counseling, healing affirmations or with Reiki and Chakra Healing. From an Energy Healing point of view, we’d focus on the Sacral Chakra (emotions), Solar Plexus (self-esteem) and Heart (self-love). 

Having opened the heart and grounded ourselves, the final step would be to visualize and feel the Soul Star Chakra, which can be found in the Aura, 6-12 inches over the head. It holds the energy of your soul including past lives, ancestors and the imprint of your natal astrology chart. I like to visualize the Soul Star as a moon, always full, at times more illuminated than others. 

By grounding ourselves and activating our intuition, we also connect with our power. The influence of the stars can be worked with consciously on a day to day basis. 

Step 2: Timing for Moon Meditations 

Each of the Houses in the chart represents a life sphere, for example, the 1st House relates to how we see and present ourselves in the world, the 4th represents home life, the 7th has to do with marriage and business partnerships. If we want to heal or give extra oomph to a specific area of our lives, we would carry out an energy healing meditation with the Moon. The secret is to time the ritual so that we download the Moon’s energy when it transits the relevant House. 

Below is a quick summary of House meanings. As a reminder, the Houses always stay in the same place, while the Zodiac rotates twice daily. The first house is at the 9AM spot on a clock, and the rest of the Houses go counter clockwise through the natal chart circle. You will need a birth chart that takes your time of birth into account for these calculations to be accurate. 

-  1st House:  Your personal identity, how you’re seen in the world.

- 2nd House: The material world, riches, belongings, values, income. 

- 3rd House:  Community, communications, siblings, K-12 school years. 

- 4th House:  Family life, the home, childhood, your foundation. 

- 5th House:  Creativity, art, music, love affairs, having & raising kids. 

- 6th House:  Vocations, teamwork, routines, service to others (or not).

- 7th House:  Marriage, romantic relationships, partnership, open enemies. 

- 8th House:  Shared resources, taxes, intimacy, other people’s money, legacies. 

- 9th House:  What is the meaning of life? Higher education, philosophy

- 10th House: Social and career status, ambition, ripple effect on world. 

- 11th House: Your broader tribe, social groups, all of humanity. Oneness. 

12th House: The realm of past lives, karma & family secrets.

If a person wanted to bring more love and empathy into their marriage; they’d set that intention and then carry out the Moon Ritual when the Moon transits the sign on the cusp of the 7th House.  If they wanted to focus on their work life, they might look at the 2nd house of income, 6th of work atmosphere to improve relationships with colleagues, or 10th to stand out more.  

Step 3: A Moon Ritual to Impulse Your Life 

I had already been practicing energy healing for more than seven years before venturing into magick; it shocked me how similar they are. In this ritual (or meditation) we combine energy healing and astrology to create tangible changes. This script follows the parameters  from my energy healing studies, encouraging us to connect with the highest and purest source of light in the Universe first. The intention is to take our awareness completely out of the box, circumventing  the energy of the planets. We then bring that light-power down, with the intention to transform our lives from above. It’s only after we’ve grounded ourselves and attuned to that light that we reach for the Moon or the planets. 

Please light a candle and have a pen and piece of paper on hand. If you’d like to bring crystals into this meditation, clear quartz can be programmed with any intention. Otherwise, bring your hands to your heart in Step 6, letting your Heart Chakra capture the Moon’s light & healing. 

• Light a candle and visualize yourself surrounded by violet light. 
• Visualize tree roots growing out of the bottoms of your feet into the ground. A beautiful crystal shines in the center of the earth, sending a ray of light to your Heart Chakra. 
• Inhale, and take your attention up through the Universe the the purest and highest source of light that is available to you at this moment. Feel it flow down to your Heart Chakra. 
• Sit with this for a few minutes, breathing in light and breathing out stress. 
• When you’re ready, visualize the Moon’s light flowing through your Soul Star Chakra, where the energy of your natal chart is stored. Intend for the relevant House to be activated. 
• Optional Crystal Activation: You can write your specific intention on a piece of paper and then tape it onto a quartz crystal, letting the moonlight flow through your hands into the Quartz. 
• Always specify that the energy healing align with your highest good, harming none. 
• Release that energy into the ground, focus on your heart and radiate gratitude. 
• Ground yourself and shield your Aura with violet light, pink or indigo light. 

We can do these meditations as often as we’d like, but it’s a good idea to start with just one or two a month until we get the hang of it. There are also other considerations – Christopher Warnock has a wonderful book called Secrets of Planetary Magic, with more techniques.  

I’m working on a book and/or an online astrology class. Like most of the things I do, it will focus on healing and integrating.

What Do Happiness & Magic Mean To You?

I have spent lots of time meditating with crystals, journaling and going for walks to clear the air. One of the themes that has been running through my mind is the concept of magic and if we can manifest anything we visualize. Call it magic, manifesting or the law of attraction... 

This particular question is time-sensitive now - this March 2020 - as the whole world has received a cosmic time out, with a bit of fear and uncertainty thrown into the mix, and lots of time to contemplate our lives. 

The message that came through today was that YES - everyone can experience happiness, love, security, health and belonging, but how that looks will be different for each of us. 

We won't all have a house as big as Oprah's - or a big business to run - but we can all have and deserve to have work that we we enjoy, a beautiful roof over our heads and loved ones to share this with. And to be honest, many of us wouldn't enjoy the pace and maintenance that go with a lifestyle and a career path as big as Oprah's. Or any wildly successful individual. Some of us just want a happy and healthy life, as stress-free as humanly possible 😅 

Magic begins with intuition and intention-setting, followed up by action. The idea is to focus on the essence of what we intend to create and not how it takes shape. Think about welcoming Love, Happiness, Security, Health and maybe Adventure to your life, rather than asking for a specific outcome, object or need-filler. And if we're feeling sad, stressed or angry it is important to address that too; we can rely on energy healing and creative tools to process our emotions (link).

Where do we begin? 

👉🏻 With introspection - What do love, happiness, security, health and belonging mean to you? What do you need to feel happy or fulfilled? For me, a big learning was to be satisfied with where I was in my life, letting that gratitude bring extras. I know that can be tough or even impossible in certain circumstances, especially when things go haywire, as they have now. If all we can do is survive, let’s take it one day at a time. But I feel that many of us are being pushed to go within and to reinvent ourselves both individually and as a community. 

One of the things I love about the Chakra System is how it gives us a roadmap to find answers through meditation. As mentioned in my book, chakra healing is its own kind of magic. The Heart Chakra opens the gates for us to receive love, wealth, healing and miracles. The Brow and Solar Plexus hold beliefs about whether we deserve to experience those qualities, and if we think we can have them. Belief in impossibility is a huge barrier. The Root Chakra deals with financial security and sense of belonging. The Throat and Sacral Chakras pour energy into our action plans and determine how vocal we are about them. There are many ways to go about healing and opening the chakras, meditation is one of my favorites! Here is a recording to get started 🧡🧡

If you would like to know more I have two books on energy healing, intuition, and creativity. Creativity can be artistic, but it also relates to your life - imaginanging, sculpting and creating that life. The e-books and/or paperback are available in 17 countries, in the Bookstore HERE. 

Reiki hugs,
