Healing Energy

We are all agents of healing.  We all have the ability to act as healers on any given day.  Whether we use this energy through mental healing or physical healing, it is within us all to give. 

Do you question these statements? 

How can someone like me be capable of healing another when I have not gone through any training or schooling? 

How can I heal without knowing how to work the healing energies?

Some training is required before you can learn how to heal efficiently, but it does not require years of schooling to facilitate healing through hands on techniques.  What is a Mother’s first response when her child has hurt themselves?  It is an automatic response to place our hands over the injury.  Why?

There are many healing modalities available.  In most cases, the energy required for healing does not come from us but works through us.  We are only the transmitter or conduit for the energy to pass through.

Reiki, for example, is a hands-on technique that the first level can be taught over a weekend.  You can learn the technique and begin healing yourself with these initial instructions, although further training and much practice is advised.  We can all act as a conduit of this energy. 

The knowledge has been passed down through the ages and anyone can use this energy to help those around them.   We are all born healers.  There are many ways that we can use these gifts. 

How often do we naturally offer a gentle touch when someone is going through a rough time?  How often do you find that these people feel much better after a touch and the ability to express their feelings?

This is all part of our natural design.  We are born with these gifts.  They have been available since time began but somehow we have lost this information and forgotten our abilities. 

Remember to utilize your compassion and open the channels of love so this can be expressed.  In some way or another, each one of us care for others.  We experience some form of compassion.  Some of us even take on others’ emotions during emotional experiences.  Assist your brothers and sisters during their times of need but do not own their emotions.  You will be of no assistance if emotionally you are walking in the shadows, although your experiences from dark moments will assist you in understanding as you have taken steps within those same shoes as those that are suffering.

There are many ways to offer assistance to those in need and it is within our grasp and ability to help those who ask for assistance.  Allow the healing energy to radiate outward into your world and be part of the overall healing process.  It is within your capability to make a difference through whatever form gravitates to you. 

Be a conduit for source’s healing energy.  Be an agent of compassion and love for each of our brothers and sisters.

Transiting Neptune Conjunct Natal Moon in Astrology

Transiting Neptune has been moving back and forth into retrograde and then going direct since the spring of 2013 and will continue until February of 2015 between 3-7 degrees of Pisces.  If you have the Moon in this degree of Pisces then Neptune will have had a profound effect on you over this two year period. 

Moon in Pisces is a very inspirational placement and most individuals with Moon in Pisces have psychic inclinations and often prophetic dreams.  They are emotionally inclined to receive intuitive information from higher sources and are often visionary.  They are emotionally receptive to the deeper dimensions and attuned to other people’s emotional response to the world.  Many have a difficult time removing themselves from emotional interaction with those they respond too.

This is an intuitive placement for many and for those that have difficulty in this area of life there is often a tendency to live in a dream world trying to escape the more harsh side of life, often through alcohol and drugs.  As the Moon governs the emotions, they are all wide open to introspection and have a deep seated emotional nature.

Neptune is in its natural sign in Pisces and is quite comfortable with this placement and when attached to the Natal Moon, it often brings Neptunian principles to the surface.  Many will have an involvement with mystical experiences and practices during this time and undergo emotional interactions with the spiritual realms.  If one is so inclined, this period will often produce profound effects and at times a linking with other realms of experience.

Neptune will also colour the imagination and because it is linked to the Moon, people with Moon in these degrees in Pisces may have difficulty understanding their own emotional makeup.  They may react in different ways than in those ways that they customarily react and they may become lost in their feelings.  The house this conjunction resides in will indicate which area of life is being affected.  If for example the conjunction occurs in the sixth house, these types of experiences will deal with the working environment and your emotional health often connected to nutrition.   If this conjunction should occur in the fifth house, you may experience intuitive insights into love relationships and children or have difficulties seeing things clearly, often putting these people (especially romantic entanglements) high on a pedestal.  After the transit has completed its course, you may see this individual in a much clearer light and see them as they actually are. 

If Neptune is clouding your perception and your emotional interaction with life, it is best that you have a second look and perhaps wait for a clearer perception down the road when Neptune is out of range of the Moon.  If you are experiencing mystical insight and emotional interaction in the spiritual realms, this is the nature of Neptune in this placement and you should be paying close attention to the spiritual side of life.  Is it telling you something?

Insight and intuition and emotional interaction will be highlighted during this time frame.  Much can be learned during this very significant period.  You can either rely on your emotional feedback or if you feel unsure then it is best to wait until the cloud of uncertainty evaporates.  Check out the aspects to your natal Neptune to see how it is affecting you.  If you have many challenging aspects, make sure what you are experiencing is real and watch for a lesson after this transit passes.  If your Neptune is well aspected then the insights might be on target.

You should also check to see where your Natal Neptune resides, as the house placement and sign placement will also provide you with details into what is taking place in your life.  In many cases, the spiritual side of life is awakened; and we can grasp its deeper meaning at this time so use this transit with this in mind.

Follow Through

This path we walk and the life we live are sometimes difficult routes to maintain especially in the early days of understanding.  It is easy to fall off our chosen route and venture here and there in alternate directions without even noticing.  The old and familiar ways are often reflections of where we once were and even though those reflections are from focuses of our past, they somehow still holds us back from moving forward in our new direction.....the ties that bind are strong and they tug at us and cause us to look back.  By doing so, we only lose focus of where we intend to go.

Stepping out of our comfort zone and pushing forward into an unknown territory can be a bit intimidating and uncomfortable to us.  However, as we continue on in this life’s venture, we begin to gain insight and it is then much easier to break free of the past and its grasp.  Behind us is a way of “being” that no longer suits our ongoing journey.  Eventually, this familiar place of the past becomes so distant that it feels as though it was another lifetime.

Moving forward without any knowledge of what we will uncover can be a stimulating experience and for those that are in search for something new and meaningful, it will hold their fascination and intrigue.  We do not follow along blindly although at times it certainly feels this way.  The course has been laid down before us long ago and we follow along a route that is inherently understood on a deeper level.  It is not foreign although letting faith guide us can be difficult.

The overbearing ego will want to be at the controls and as we venture deeper within ourselves, the ego’s grasp lightens and the doors begin to open.  What we learn as we move through the channels of understanding are stepping stones to our future knowing.  It is not an idea or a concept; it is an actual knowing and understanding that unfolds.  This is what is referred to as the awakening, but it has been in the works since our birth. 

It is suggested that we were actually in complete understanding when we entered this life and then as we adjusted to the material world, we lost sight of the true meaning of our life as we develop material concerns and make an earthly life for ourselves. 

This was not a wrong road that we happened to take or a mishap in any way.  It was meant to be and we were laying a required foundation that serves it purposes but will eventually have to be broken down to clear way for true understanding.  We gradually realize that material rewards are short lived and our entanglement with such things are only comforting for the moment and then rapidly lost their significance.

Upon this realization, we are once again open to the underlying principles that have brought us into this existence.  We are now making our way towards gaining an understanding of the “why” behind our lives.  The door has opened and we have ventured inside, leaving behind anything that does not fit into our new way of living.  The past is behind us but there are times we glance back without realizing.  Our way of living is changing.  Our openness to life is producing results that we never thought we would encounter when we were engaged in our material lives.

Staying in touch with our spiritual needs is now paramount.  Veering off course does still happen from time to time, but we will realize our off-road ventures immediately and we move back on our intended path.  Staying with the truth becomes an easy task as we venture even further into our self-knowing and true perception. 

Hold true to your awakening.  Stay focused and intent.  We must remain open as we walk further down our enlightening path.

Ascendant Sign in Astrology

The Ascendant Sign or Rising Sign is descriptive of our outside personality, the one we reveal to the world.  This will usually differ from our Sun Sign and this is a sure reason why some individuals are seen as quite different from the typical characteristics associated with their Sun Sign personality.  The Sun Sign still resonates and is usually more prominent as we get to know and fulfill the characteristics of our true selves.   The Sun Sign is you’re inside personality while the Ascendant sign reveals an outer personality that we are willing to reveal to the world.

The Ascendant Sign is often depictive of our appearance and the way we carry ourselves in our outside environment.  It is believed at least by this Astrologer that we are meant to merge our Sun Sign with our Rising Sign as well as the sign and house placement of the Moon as we develop and mature.  It is with this merging that we can distinguish our true more complete selves and we can represent our true selves in a more authentic manner.

The Ascendant sign is also a very significant point when transits and progressions move across or make important aspects to it.  The changes and transformations that are often accompanied through the transit connections to this point are very significant to our overall development.  Changes in our appearance, our evolution, our ideologies and life concepts as well as changes to relationships with important people all come under careful scrutiny during these transiting times.

For example, Uranus crossing over the Ascendant often correlates with major wants for something new and exciting in life.  We are often viewed from the outside world as being rather eccentric in our behaviour during powerful transits or progressions affecting this area of our chart.  The want to break free from restrictive or old outdated ways or relationships that fall into this category are often by-products of a Uranus transit especially when in Conjunction, Square or Opposition.  Uranus is also known as the awakener and many will go through an awakening process as Uranus transits this placement.

It is important to also look at the opposing house cusp (7^th) and the ruling planet and house placement of your ascendant sign to gain further insight into potential changes taking place in your life.  The aspect that the planet is making will define whether it is stressful or an opportunity or just plain easy flow, while the planet will define the type of action that can be anticipated.   The house placement of the Ascendant’s ruling planet will also define the area of life that will be affected.

Any outer planet that transits this placement will have significant influence on your life.  It often takes several years for these slow moving bodies to move out of the orb of influence.  Those that are sensitive can feel the approach of the planet by as much as 4-5 degrees and the separation of the link by up to 2-3 degree.  The affects will be felt for a long period of time and will change life’s conditions significantly.  Often these outer planets signify a complete change in your life’s course and a new beginning.

Have a close look at any outer planet making a conjunction in particular, as this is the most powerful of the major aspects.  The planet and the sign on the Ascendant will merge and act as an intensifying agent of the conditions already in place in the birth chart.  Be ready for change, transformation and a new beginning as these powerful entities begin taking hold in your life.

New Beginnings

Every single day we awake is a new beginning but January 1 always seems to be a day that the majority of us more clearly understand this concept of a fresh start for life. 

We envision the new year as an opportunity to wipe the slate clean, to choose to move forward in a more mindful way. 

What are your resolutions, your intentions, your goals?

Could we not also use this opportunity as a time to reflect, to look back on the year that has just past?  We can use this opportunity not as a time to beat ourselves up but as a time to reflect on all that we have accomplished.  All too often, we are critical of ourselves.  If we want our children to grow and feel better about themselves, do we not praise them for all that they have accomplished?  Do we not make them feel better about themselves so that they can strive even more to grow and move forward?

We never get more bees with vinegar.  We can only attract them with sweet pollen.  We as adults are no different. 

Take the time to review the past 12 months.  See all that you have accomplished.  Look at how you have grown.  Acknowledge your movement forward on your life’s path. 

If we do not know where we are now, how can we plan where we want to be in twelve months from now?

Be kind, loving and forgiving to yourself.  If you cannot do this for YOU, how can you offer these to others? 

Happy New Year.  We wish you love.  We wish you contentment.  We wish you direction.

Love and Light from Holm Astrology, Peter and Angela.
