Full Moon, Releasing the Old and Comic Relief!

Hello and welcome to this week's newsletter :)

This Tuesday/Wednesday will be the next full moon - a time for releasing anything in your life that may be worrying you or holding you back, in order to bring in the new energy to help you to move forwards in your life.

I say Tuesday/Wednesday because it will depend on which time zone you are in, some examples of the actual times of the full moon are 7.38pm PDT/10.38pm EDT/3.38am GMT. This is when the energy of the full moon will be at its strongest so this is the ideal time to make crystal elixirs and to perform releasement ceremonies. Now don't be worried by the idea of a releasement ceremony, you don't have to chant naked in your garden (though you can if you want!), the point is to gather together everything you want to release in your life before the full moon occurs. To do this you can write down on a piece of paper anything that is bothering you or anything that you feel is lacking in your life. For example, you may find that you are worried about not having enough money in your life, or are worried about paying a bill that has landed on your doormat, or you would like to be able to exercise more but don't have the physical energy or the motivation to get started. These are great things to write about, but instead of writing in a negative manner, write things like 'I can easily and effortlessly pay this bill' or 'I am full of energy and exercise is fun!'.

Think about everything you want to banish and release from your life and find the positive opposite to it, then put this paper when you have noted everything you wish to change at this moment into a box - a God Box, like I mentioned in the newsletter last week. You don't have to call it a God Box, it can be called anything that resonates with you personally. Some people call it their manifestation box or their Law of Attraction box :) It can be a box of any size, bought or handmade - the important factor here is that it is personal to you and what you want to use it for. If you are making your own (shoe boxes work really well) then decorate it with positive images so that it will be a joy to look at and to use.

When your box is ready, keep it somewhere close to hand throughout the month and top it up with further requests whenever you feel you want to, regardless of what time of the month moon wise it is. The reason I say that this works best on a full moon is because this is the best time to utilise the energy of the moon to help you to release more easily. Just before the full moon, take the contents of the box and ask the angels (or God/Spirit Guides etc.) to bless the contents and take away any burdens surrounding the issues you wish to release at that time. Then it is up to you what to do

with these contents, you can either bury them in the garden, or in a pot of soil, or burn them, or even put them away in an envelope and forget about them - or what I tend to do (so I am not tempted to read them later in the month)is shred them into little pieces and put them in the recycling bag for the next collection - this way it is released from your life then transformed into something new and useful for someone else :)

Don't just use your box for removing negativity from your life, also use it to create wishes. If there is something you would really like to manifest in your life then write about this too and then put it in the box with everything else, and then release it in the same way. By releasing all thoughts about either the positive or negative situations, you are leaving a space in your life open for the universe to get in and create that for you - the sooner you release and forget about it, the faster they will manifest in your life.

For extra help with this releasing process the best archangels to call upon are:

*

Archangel Michael - for cutting the energetic cords that are preventing the issues from being released.
*

Archangel Sandalphon - answers your prayers and helps you to receive your wishes.
*

Archangel Jeremiel - for releasing patterns in your life and reviewing your life choices.
*

Archangel Jophiel - helps you to declutter your environment and your body of negative energies and emotions.


Choose which archangel(s) you would like to work with and then centre yourself by taking three deep breaths from your stomach (imagine your tummy filling with air as you breathe in) and then ask either out loud or silently for the archangel to visit you now. Imagine them in front of you and then ask them whatever question you have, or tell them what it is you would like help with. Then hand over the contents of your box to them and know that all is taken care of, in the perfect way for you.

The energies of the full moon can sometimes make you re-evaluate your life in other ways, it is a great time to declutter your environment, get rid of everything that doesn't make you happy or bring you joy. Do you really need three pairs of gloves in the winter? Pick your most favourite then donate the rest to charity or give them away to friends/family etc. The kinds of items that accumulate the most negative energy in a home are old bills and bank statements - if they have been dealt with and are older than six years (most tax returns require you to keep your statements for at least six years) then shred them and recycle them, burn them if you want - but get rid of them somehow. Then over the next few weeks notice the shift in the energy of your home, it will most likely feel more peaceful and calm and may even bring more prosperity towards you and your home :)

The full moon is also a time to take care of your body. That means to take a break and relax. Use this time to pamper yourself, turn off the TV and the phone and curl up with a good book, a big cup of your favourite hot drink, or your favourite tipple (and a big bar of chocolate usually helps too! :D), just take some time out to replenish your energy levels and take care of yourself. You may find that you have been working yourself into the ground without realising, and if you're not careful you may end up having to take time out if you end up with a cold - your body's way of telling you to slow down. The energies of the full moon are at their strongest the day before, during and the day after the full moon, so if you can - plan ahead in advance and take the time off work, your workmates will thank you for it if you do, for you will be much more relaxed and happy on your return as a result of doing this for your wellbeing. For more information on how the different moon energies can affect you in your life click on the Moon Circles link at the bottom of this page - you can also buy for a few pounds/dollars a lunar report that will help you to pinpoint each month how the moon's energy affects you day to day and how you can learn from this.


This Friday 13th (which is actually a lucky day for many people!) is Comic Relief Day in the UK and as a result - if you book and pay in advance for any angel readings or Theta Healing sessions (or any other therapy from the website) from now until 15th March, I will donate 10% of the proceeds to Comic Relief. It is a very worthwhile cause, helping millions of children - so if you would like to help yourself to move forwards in your life and also support a worthy charity then please email me or book through the website. To find out more about Comic Relief, please click on the link at the bottom of the page.


Here is your angel reading for the week:

The angels are asking you to stand up for what you believe in right now and be courageous, don't worry about what others say, if it feels right for you then go ahead with your plans. You may be feeling extra-sensitive to emotions and energies right now so take care of yourself and only be with people who make you feel special and in environments that are gentle where you feel supported. The angels are saying that they are helping you with any conflicts in your life right now and they are opening the hearts of everyone involved so that the arguments can be resolved from a place of love, this will soon lift the energy around you to make it more calm and peaceful for everyone.

Archangel Michael is asking you to be very clear about what you desire and focus upon it with unwavering faith. The angels are helping you to manifest your prayers and bring you gifts from God/Creator, so please allow yourself to receive these gifts with grace and ease. Archangel Sandalphon says that your prayers have been heard and answered so have faith that everything will work out in divine timing for you. Archangel Uriel is also asking you to keep a look out for any ideas that are coming to you right now as these too are answered prayers. If you feel you need to clear your body from negativity then call upon Archangel Metatron as he is here for you right now to open and clear your chakras, to return you to perfect health. Be gentle on yourself around this full moon time and call upon the angels to help you with anything that is causing you concern or upset and they will be with you in an instant.


The angels of abundance are with you right now ensuring that a steady flow of abundance is about to manifest in your life soon, they also say that you reap what you sow and that your dreams are coming into fruition and that if you believe in something enough then you will be able to create it, as these are your beliefs no one can harm you or take them away from you unless you let them - the angels and goddesses are protecting you psychically right now to help bring these dreams into your reality. So trust in yourself, think positively from a place of love and create all you desire right now!


Your crystal of the week is Larimar which is useful for taking the heat out of situations like anger and infections in the body or emotions. The following extract has been taken from 'The Crystal Ally Cards' by Naisha Ahsian:


'Larimar, also known as blue pectolite or dolphin stone, ranges in colour between a vibrant turquoise blue and a pale green. Larimar is found in the Dominican Republic, and it reflects the colours and energies of the Caribbean sea. This Ally often exhibits chatoyancy, giving the impression of waves moving within the stone.

Larimar is volcanic in origin, yet it exudes a nurturing cool vibration that lends itself wonderfully to tempering excess fire in one's energy. This Ally helps one to feel cradled in the arms of protection and love, while it encourages the cleansing and movement of energy throughout the body and aura.

Larimar embodies the perseverance of the Water element. While fire may burn hot, it burns fast, and water can always put it out. Where there is infection or any other 'hot' condition, Larimar's healing and soothing energies can be called upon to calm and cool the energies.

Larimar carries the vibration of nurturing. This energy creates the sensation that one is being comforted and cared for by the Great Earth Mother. Its water energy provides the comfort of the ocean of the womb. When one is feeling the need for deep cleansing and protection, a water healing can greatly aid in recovering one's sense of connection to the Great Mother. Water healing can mean relaxing in a hot tub to soothe frazzled nerves, taking a swim in the ocean, or even crying, one of the most cleansing and clearing things we can do to release 'hot' energy.

As adults we do not always get the nurturing and support that we need. The energy of Larimar is a wonderful Ally to call upon when the need for retreat to the womb is upon you.


Larimar's message:

When Larimar appears as your Ally, it is calling you to reconnect to the energies of the nurturing, female aspect of yourself and the Universe. Now is not the time for strong movement, but for retreat into the gentle flow of nature. Perhaps you have been pushing yourself too hard or too long. Maybe you just need a break from the heat of everyday life. Larimar is calling you to cool and soothe your energy. Drink some water, take a bath, or have a good cry. Then curl up and dream of the blue ocean and azure sky. Listen to the frequency of Larimar in your heart, as it sings you to sleep with the voice of the Great Mother Earth.

Chakra: Throat

Affirmation: I am supported and nurtured by the Energy of the Universe.'

Does the Full Moon make you crazy?

Hello and welcome to my newsletter this week :)
 
On the 24th February it will be the New Moon, a time for starting projects and thinking about what you want to bring into your life to make you happy. The New Moon helps you to recognise the blessings in your life and be grateful for all the little things that bring you happiness.
 
Even though it may seem at times that things don't work out the way you hoped they would, somewhere deep amongst the sadness you may feel about a situation, there is a hidden blessing, something that you would have missed if you didn't stand back for a moment and look at it from all angles. It is these little hidden blessings that can sometimes be so difficult to notice, that can give us the greatest joy. Take this moment to think about something that happened in your life, that you felt at the time was difficult to deal with, but that now looking back, you realise that by seeing the bigger picture you can also see the blessings that situation brought you and that you are a stronger person for those blessings.
 
My friend told me of a technique to help you to bring more blessings into your life and to create the life you really want, I'm sure he won't mind me sharing it with you. It's about creating your own world, a world where you are exactly who you want to be and you can do whatever you want to do. You make up the rules, you decide what path to choose, and then you experience everything that you want in your life in the world you have created. To do this, take some time out for yourself - I usually visit my world whilst in the bath, as that is the only time I can really get to myself with a young baby in tow :) But you can do it at any time that is best for you, during meditation or even for an hour before you get up in the morning (you start the day feeling much happier that way). Close your eyes and imagine yourself in your world, picture something that will make you happy and think about all the details, the little things like how it makes you feel, any sounds or smells associated with it. Really experience it using all of your senses. Stay in that moment as long as you want to then little by little, bring parts of that experience into your normal everyday life, and before you know it new blessings will appear for you and you actually start living the life you want and achieve what you experienced in your world. You can go back to your world at any time when you need to escape, when you need to find a new meaning in your life, when you need to feel happy. Sometimes the things you are experiencing in your world may not manifest in your real world, maybe the timing will never be right, but that doesn't mean you can't benefit from the excitement that that experience brings you, and maybe one day it will become a reality - when the timing is right, even if it only lasts for a single day. One single day can give you a lifetime of memories.
 
So, on this New Moon, create your special world and start to experience everything you want to achieve and become in your life, and don't hold back. It's all to do with the Law Of Attraction, first you have to experience it and feel it, then the universe feels it in your life and sends it to you. You are only limited by your dreams and your imagination.
 
Another way to do this is to create a vision board. If you can remember making a scrapbook when you were young, then this works in the same way. Go through old magazines and cut out things that interest you, like your dream home or the perfect furniture. Think about those things you wanted to create in your life and draw them on your vision board. Your vision board can be as big as you want it to be, some people like to put them up on the wall or tape them to their fridge, whatever feels right for you. That is your homework for this week :-) Next week we will talk about manifesting what is on your vision board or in your world into reality.
 
Here is your angel reading for this week, taken from the Archangels Oracle Cards and Angel Therapy Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue:
 
'All Is Well -  Archangel Jeremiel: Everything is happening exactly as it is supposed to, with hidden blessings you will soon understand. Sometimes, what appears to be a problem is actually an answered prayer in disguise. When we ask for help, Heaven may dismantle the old to make room for the new. During this time of change, practice relaxation methods such as yoga, deep breathing, exercise and meditation. Ask me to make your transition smooth and harmonious for everyone involved. And know that this change is for the better!'
 
'Singing and Dancing -  Express yourself and awaken your psychic senses through the magical power of music and movement. The angels send you this card because they see the need for creative expression and balance of work and play. Singing and dancing are powerful ways to open your creative channels and feel the freedom of fully expressing yourself. You'll realise hidden talents and boost your self-confidence with these activities. Because musical expression is your soul's means of connecting with the physical realm, you'll also gain a greater sense of the Divinity within yourself. Many women discover their inner goddess through artistic forms of dancing such as belly or hula dance.'
 
Action steps: In a room where you won't be interrupted, turn down the lights and turn on your favourite music. Sway to the music, allowing yourself to move in any way that you'd like. Let your body lead the dance, without planning or thinking about your movements. Sing along with the song while you enjoy dancing in free-form expression.
 
Your crystal of the week is Turquoise and the message comes from the Crystal Oracle cards by Toni Carmine Salerno:
 
'Turquoise keywords: speaking one's truth, clear communication, purification.
Don't be afraid to speak your truth. A situation that is causing you concern can easily be resolved by simply expressing how you truly feel. You will not hurt or upset anyone by speaking your truth. In fact, speaking your truth has the opposite effect to what you think. By communicating your feelings and preferences clearly and honestly all concerned will be relieved. At present, others are rather confused because they sense that all is not the way you are purporting it to be. This magical Turquoise crystal will help you ease any fear you have regarding clear and true communication with either yourself or others.'
 
Have fun creating this week and take some time out to sing and dance too :)
 
I am away visiting family this week so won't be able to answer any emails until I return on 28th February so have a wonderful week and I will speak to you soon!
 
Love and angel blessings,
