Guest guest Posted October 31, 2000 Report Share Posted October 31, 2000 Hi Everyone! I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only one feeling extremely fatigued lately. I'm a mother of 2 young children, so I generally attribute it to that and the stress of everyday life. I'm not all that familiar with Mercury in retrograde, etc. I would be interested in getting more information on this as well. Is there anything as energy workers we can do to minimize these affects?

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Hi, I think the retrograde is an opportunity for us to go within, to get rid of our stuff from the past. Although I know it is necessary I still feel like I am going to go mad. I have a toddler and I am finding it extremely trying. It is good to know the retrograde will be over this weekend. We all must go within to heal ourselves. It is necessary for the planet to rebalance itself. Maureen > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Maureen-- If I go any further " within " , I'm liable to come out the other side! I agree with you, I also feel like I'm going mad; and, if I had any energy, I'd probably bang my head against the wall--but the pillow is *so* much nicer... Does anyone have any suggestions for " getting on with things " NOW? I'm not the most energetic person in the world on a *good* day, but I'm finding it more and more difficult to get myself motivated to do the simplest things these days. I've put off paying the bills, working in the garden (usually a great joy to me), and will soon need a demolition crew if I don't get the house in order soon! Any vitamins, herbs, affirmations... Suggestions welcomed.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Florie, In between keeping my toddler occupied, I find writing in a journal (being extremely honest) helpful. Also, take out the paints (even if you don't think of yourself as an artist), crayons, pen, whatever. Getting it out. I know my house is a disaster, literally. Letting go of the expectations of what my house should look like is good. Reading something that makes you happy. Or at least takes your mind off. If this energy zap is the retrograde we only have to get through a few more days. Also, I have rented so many movies. Especially ones I know I am going to cry. If something is bothering you down deep you may need to find out the truth or the core. I have been healing for the last ten years. The journey became excellerated after I came across an intuitive that answered all my questions, and I mean all, truthfully. Although I find asking about the future backfires. With all this I guess it is seeking your truth, the truth will set you free. When I am fatigued it usually means I need to get anger or grief out, without retraumatizing yourself, being loving toward yourself. Maureen (you can find the intuitive at http:/www.cherylstoycoff.com I hope I was of some help, I know it helped me to reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Hello all, No, Florie, my house has the most dustbunnies in it. Sorry I haven't been speaking up lately but I'm going through a hell of my own here. This past Saturday I had an echo cardiogram done and yesterday I had a chest cat scan done. They think there may be fluid forming around my heart. I will know tomorrow afternoon. Please everyone send your healing thoughts and prayers my way. I'm really scared. I've been sitting back and reading all your posts lately thinking about all of you. I had talked to Florie and told her about this a few days ago. Thanks for being there for me, Florie. My love to you all, Ellie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Maureen-- Thank you for your reply--it was extremely helpful. Just knowing that there are other people out there feeling the effects in the same way is a real comfort. Maybe we should have a contest to see who has the messiest house! I bet I'd win for the most dust bunnies! Thanks for the smile, and keep healing--sounds like you're doing wonderfully well!

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 Hi, I wish you well. You can call in your healing angels and any angels that wish to participate to send you healing energy anywhere you need it. The universe is wonderful that way.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 Dear Ellie; It would be easy for me to tell you not to be scared, but if it were me, I'd be shaking in my boots. You will get through this the way you have gotten through everything else in life--with grace, courage, and by being an example to others. You have many friends on this list, and I'm sure they all wish you well. You're in our thoughts, too.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 Well, folks, I'm suffering too. This week, I've managed to go to work, eat and keep the place clean. And that is IT. Haven't even the energy for Reiki, and that's a sad thing for me. I keep feeling guilty that I'm not riding my bike or hiking. But then, all I want to do is brood, read and sleep. I'm glad to hear the retrograde is over this weekend! Another week, and my clothes won't fit!

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 Dear Florrie, First thing...go easy on yourself. You are not required to be perfect, because perfect doesn't exist. Gently ask yourself... " whose standards you are trying to meet? " Whoever laid down these standards for you, your body is refusing to capitulate, there is a battle raging, and all this fighting makes you feel worn out. Talk to your sub-conscious with love by affirming: I am enthusiastic about life, and filled with energy and enthusiasm. Do this as many times per day as you feel able, when your energy increases, then you may feel able to do a bit of digging into the reasons. I am affirming that you are choosing to do everything that you feel happy and passionate about. And so it is. Love and Light Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2000 Report Share Posted November 8, 2000 Boy I was amazed at the energy I have today. After staying up till the wee hours watching the election predictions and operating on 3.5 hrs of sleep I popped out of bed and kept my energy all day. I was able to get alot accomplished and tho tired I still feel really good and content. I hope this shift that has plagued my system over the last few months has lifted and completed the process. Blessings to all. Cecelia Be love and laugh!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2000 Report Share Posted November 12, 2000 Sonya do I know the feeling...My son was going to put me in a home he was so sick of me...LOL everything seemed to be out or proportion in my mind. I did the same thing, meditation and even thought that work would sort of get me out of it..My poor clients what I put them through...lol Was crying all the time for no reason and then would get angry at myself for being so weak. What a clash I kept having with myself. I am just glad it is all over and plan on doing some research on this so I can prepare my family and friends....LOL Take care, and thank you all for sharing..
