Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Peggy, You do know Mercury is in Retrograde right? It works well for me though as that is in my birth chart. I can't say I blame you for getting upset though.... It seems that some things just make no sense at all when it comes to the appropriations of our government. Keep in your heart as I know you are. All good deeds and intentions are really only for us anyway. It is our response to our good deeds that sets the flow of the ripple in motion so that others may feel it. Keep the ripples flowing.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Mercury retrograde is in it's final days and we are still feeling the last elements of it, but I wonder if the moon eclipse on Wed has any effect on us as well. Trying Checking the horoscopes as they give a really good overview of what all the planets are doing for each day in a general section not by sign. another one is Psychic Source.com - Moira write the plants there and she is a friend of mine. I actually read both - and try to everyday, and I try to everyday, but I find that this is more helpful than by sign horoscope. I can't prove this next point, but I do know that since 911 the " veil " has gotten thinner and we are getting closer to 2012 as we are all one. Personally I feel that we are being pushed by the universe to deal with all emotions and especially those that push our buttons (I had mine pushed today as well) and also the universe is pushing us on our paths like we have been majorly behind. OK- well back to stones as this is what is site is all about. I have a few stones, some I have picket by holding and others using a pendulum. I found that sleeping will smooth stones of the chakra's colors - especially ones that I am in need of have helped me. One question about crystals - in the Pranic healing - which we use in the 4th level we use a pink quartz crystal, a razor crystal and another long with point crystal but one of our healers who is certified and teaches - she is pretty high up- stated that a woman she was working on was still having many issues so the healer went to her home and the woman had crystals everywhere and that these were what were effecting her health. Once the woman removed the crystals she got better. (has anyone ever heard of such a thing??) She also warns us to take off all stone jewelry but especially diamonds, as they really asbore the negative energy so fast that they can effect you before you are even finished with the healing session.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hi Friends, It was so rough because Mars was retro as well and went direct about a week ago. Mars only goes retro once every two and a half years and rules blood and energy. I was feeling somewhat anemic because I am born with my mars retro as well....and it was sitting on my moon...so I was carrying around two loadstone crystals and was sure to wear my garnets...which are both high in iron content, which is ruled by mars and prevents anemia and strengthens energy and Mars. anyways Mars was retro for two and a half months...so yeah....not for another two and a half years!!!! So blessed energy and strength to all.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Rebecca...everyone has their own take on things but I have never heard anyone say it like that. Maybe she could explain. anyways ...when I do healing work I often take off my personal crystals that I wear. Crystals do not carry negative energy anymore than we do as we are human crystals...I take showers and baths and so do my crystals. We all need to cleanse and balance our energies....and that is especially dependent on what we carry with as energetically. I feel it is relative to each person we deal with or are and the energies crystals carry that are perhaps picked up from others. They are tools as are we...but all created from the same divine forces of the universe.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Mercury and Mars both causing trouble!! No wonder! But . . .

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yes, our intent needs to come from the heart and the thoughts will follow! Yet, this one seemed to put the " test " in front of you - things that hit to the core. A good part for me was that I had good come out of it in a job offer that I needed. But emotions seemed to push the button quick and real deep. Kind of like brought of something that you thought you had control over. Someone challanged me long enough in trying to control me (took a class in Oct and I wanted the certificate for it - this woman who is a major controller and doesn't like me cause I don't have to go through her to get to her boss - we were his clients way before he came on board- has had one excuse after another, I had my limit of her trying to control me and I did win out by asking a higher up if I could have it for him to sign as I would see him his evening - and had to walk off after that. I didn't like the anger it brought up in me. But I did control my tougue - one step in the right direction. S000000000 I am so glad that this is almost over! I could use some good times! Sorry I guess the overwhelming of these planets and the core it hit is making everyone vent it off!!! Rebecca cindy_midcalf <cindy_midcalf wrote: Mercury and Mars both causing trouble!! No wonder!

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yes, I am going to try and get in touch with her to find out why this occured. That is a good thought - I'll let your know what she says - it will be interesting to see what can cause this if the answer is different from that you have said. Good thought.
