December 1 through December 7, 2025

The astrological highlight of the week will be Thursday’s full Moon in Gemini, but if we remember that the full Moon is active about a week ahead of time until it waxes full, there’s good cause to keep an eye out for its influence starting on Monday. The Aries Moon on Monday is great for productivity, but it can also cause extra stress as we try to accomplish more than possible in a 24-hour period, so let’s pace ourselves and stay in the moment! A Taurus Moon hangs overhead Tuesday and Wednesday, adding a more grounded and stable energy to all our movements. The Gemini full Moon shifts our focus to communication skills and social interaction through Friday, compelling us to spend more time talking and less time acting. We’ll drift through the weekend under a watery Cancer Moon, gravitating to whatever strikes our fancy, and the main theme will be relaxing in the comfort of our own homes, in the presence of our friends and loved ones.

Healing and Miracles with the Archangels and Saints, by Margaret Ann Lembo

(Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

Powerful blessings are available to everyone with some help from archangels and saints. Growing up in a Roman Catholic household of Italian descent, I developed a deeply personal connection with Divine beings at a young age. Conversing and praying to my guardian angel and specific saints was not just a norm but a personal relationship I cherished.

Divine beings offer us an abundance of assistance. Even after their earthly journey ends, the saints continue to guide us from the Other Side. Their mission is to aid people and manifest miracles as a beacon of hope in times of adversity. There is a saint or archangel for almost every situation. Archangels are spiritual messengers of God, radiating a high vibration. We enable them to fulfill their divine purpose by invoking their energy for specific purposes, providing us with support and hope.

You Have to Ask for Their Help
Archangels and saints are eager to assist, but it's crucial to remember to ask for their help. For me, prayer is simply a conversation with the angel or saint. The first step is to identify which archangel or saint is associated with the type of situation you are facing. By taking this proactive step, we can empower ourselves with their assistance. Use positive affirmations, essential oils, and gemstones to amplify your request for help. It makes the interaction with the saints and archangels more palpable.

Natural Disasters
Natural disasters are always happening somewhere in the world. If you are affected by storms like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, or fires, Archangel Uriel can help. Uriel is the archangel who told Noah the flood was coming. Living in South Florida, where we are prone to hurricanes and, more recently, tornadoes, Archangel Uriel is my go-to archangel for storm protection. Inhale essential oils to amplify prayers and the connection with Uriel. Use amber, cedarwood, frankincense, and orange. Add a few drops to a diffuser and hold good thoughts to keep you safe and blessed.

Archangel Thuriel and Saint Christopher can also be called upon for safety during storms. Archangel Thuriel, the guardian of animals and nature, is an excellent guide to help you integrate the interconnectedness of all life. Saint Christopher was depicted as a giant. His height was beneficial because he helped people by carrying them across the river. He is great to ask for safety while traveling and if flooding is expected in your area. Ask him to take you to safety. Saint Barbara is associated with lightning and fire. Ask her, "Oh! Saint Barbara! Protect me from storms and intense weather conditions. Keep me safe from lightning." Say it in your own words to communicate and invoke the aid of these Divine beings.

Physical Healing, Plagues, and Pandemics
Archangel Raphael is well-known as the archangel to call on when you need guidance on healing yourself and others. Ask Archangel Raphael to orchestrate the healthcare practitioners and the most helpful people to be part of your life during the healing process. Surround yourself with the emerald green ray with an emerald gemstone to support healing on all levels—mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Wear any green gemstone bracelet, pendant, or ring to amplify your request for assistance. Using gemstones keeps you mindful and focused on your intention. Repeat an affirmation like, I take time to rest and rejuvenate. I am grateful for my good health.

Plagues and pandemics are specialties of some Divine helpers. Saint Gertrude, the Cat Lady of the Catholic Church, interceded during the bubonic plague by warding off rats. Hold onto some leopardskin jasper to ground your petition to Gertrude, saying, "I am safe from harm on all levels." Saint Rocco is known for healing plague victims by working with them in the hospital. Rocco is associated with dogs because a dog helped him heal himself from the plague he picked up from interactions with the sick. Call on Saint Rocco to protect you from contagious diseases while inhaling essential oils like eucalyptus, ravensara, and tea tree, saying something like, "Oh! Saint Rocco. Protect me from catching infectious diseases."

Padre Pio is the one to call on for physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. Ask him to support you when you experience health challenges that lead you to believe you are cursed. This Italian Franciscan Capuchin Friar and priest had many experiences of diabolical torture and, because of his experiences, was proficient at expelling demons. Exclaim, "Be gone!" to release curses and evil. Tap into the part of yourself that is a miracle worker and trust your personal power. Repeat this powerful affirmation: "I am a miracle worker. I quickly transform and transmute negative energy."

Family Matters
Do you need help with family matters? If your in-laws or siblings challenge you, ask Saint Elisabeth Ann Seton to help you out with healing issues between you. She is a patron saint of families, in-laws, widows, and widowers. Call on her to help with childbirth and grief due to the loss of family members. Saint Elisabeth Ann Seton was the first native-born America officially made a saint (in 1975). Many miracles are attributed to this saint through petitions and prayers for help. You can also ask Archangel Gabriel to help with the grief associated with family losses.

Saint Anne is the mother of Mother Mary and the grandmother of Jesus. She conceived Mother Mary at an old age, and is an excellent saint to ask for help with fertility and producing offspring. Saint Anne supports you when you are ready to start a family and have a child. On a personal note, I grew up with a connection to Saint Anne. My mother's devotion to the faith inspires me to this day. Two of my aunts prayed to Saint Anne, asking her to bring my husband and give me a happy family life. Saint Anne is often depicted as a seated woman with a book upon her lap and the child Mary leaning against her as she taught her. I have had this statue since childhood.

On a side note, while I was working on writing The Essential Guide to Archangels and Saints, I came across my mother's cookie tins filled with holy medals, scapulars, and prayer cards. I thought this find signaled that I was receiving further support from Mom from the Other Side as I wrote the book. (The scapular, derived from the word meaning "shoulder blade," is a garment designed by monks during the Middle Ages. It is considered a protective covering and shows devotion to Our Lady.)

Love and Friendship
Call on Archangels Chamuel and Jophiel to help you with relationships. Both archangels partner with the Angel of Discernment, the Angel of Helpful People, and the Angel of Unconditional Love to support you in all types of relationships. These everyday angels and many others are watching over you and helping you upon request. Everyday angels are always available to guide you to have a much happier, more fulfilling, and more spiritual life.

Archangel Chamuel works towards world peace and guides you to heal past and present relationship issues. Ask Chamuel to help you release resentment, open your heart to unconditional love, and attract the perfect relationships. Call on Archangel Jophiel to be by your side to help you cultivate a regular gratitude practice and observe the beauty and blessings around you. These two archangels team up to guide you through relationship issues requiring compassion and kindness and focus on the heart chakra.

Heart chakra crystals add a sense of comfort and amplify intentions, petitions, and mindfulness. Green and pink stones encourage happiness and harmony between you and your companions. Gems like chrysoprase, green calcite, pink calcite, pink tourmaline, unakite, and ruby in zoisite, to name just a few, are allied to support your journey with relationships. Work with these gems to amplify your request to your Divine helpers regarding friendship and love.

Money and Abundance
Aligning with saints and archangels for everyday situations is a gift and adds a spiritual vibration to the mundane. Engaging in illuminating activities like meditation, contemplation, and reflection allows for enlightenment and blessings. Archangel Barachiel is the archangel with whom you can partner when you want to attract blessings, prosperity, and happiness to your daily experience. This angel encourages fun and laughter, so lighten up your spiritual practice by calling on Barachiel.

Speaking of joyful energy, jolly old Saint Nick, Saint Nicholas of Bari, was a wonderworker and brought many miracles into the lives of those around him. This saint is known as Santa Claus because of his generosity and gift-giving. Connect with some vibrationally matching crystals for Saint Nicholas, like citrine, green aventurine, jade, pyrite, and ruby. These gems bring the vibes of abundance and philanthropy.

Protection and Safety
Archangel Michael is the first angel for defense when I need strong protection. Michael is often portrayed with a sword, shield, and the scales of justice. Archangel Michael aligns with the cobalt or deep blue ray. Use stones like lapis lazuli, sapphire, and sodalite when invoking his aid. Based on my experience over the years, Archangel Michael is a favorite archangel of many people. He is considered the leader of the archangels. Call on Michael for protection and to remove fears and phobias.

Archangel Jehudiel is usually depicted with a crown, a reward for hard work, and a whip, symbolizing responsibility with power. Jehudiel will keep you and your home safe. Call on Jehudiel to remove perceived or imposed blocks in your life. Ask this archangel to protect you so you can do what you are meant to do. Wear or carry charoite when connecting with Jehudiel, as chaos is turned into order and well-being.

With her cloak and special fire, Saint Brigid provides healing and protection. There is a tradition of carrying a Saint Benedict medal to protect from curses and diseases. Saint Benedict and Padre Pio are known to exorcise evil spirits or malevolent wishes. Envision a shield of shimmering white light around you. Allow it to deflect anything not for your highest good while amplifying blessings and well-being with these saints and archangels on your team.

Inhale essential oils to specifically amplify your petitions for protection. Clove oil protects from ill wishes and negative energy from your thought patterns. It helps deflect jealousy from others.

Repeat positive thoughts like these: "I am protected from negative influences. I am mindful of the energetic connections between others and myself. I automatically remove unhealthy cords of attachment that affect me mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Challenging situations are transformed, and the good is revealed. I am always Divinely protected."

Invoke Your Heavenly Helpers
Allow these spiritual beings to help you. Invite them to assist and give the archangels and saints permission to intervene on your behalf. Let them co-orchestrate your life. You can live a charmed life with Heavenly Helpers by your side.

Pray. Pray for yourself. Pray for your loved ones. Pray for those you don't know. Implore. Invoke. Meditate. Contemplate. Have faith. May the saints and angels light your path!

My name is Kayla and I'm a Gemini. I had a dream that God was talking to me and he said that I used to be a girl named Kelly Somsky whom people called the shadow because one day I disappeared. He told me I was very religious. In my dream, he also showed me a picture of the girl that was black and white. She had brown hair and brown eyes just like me, but unlike me she, was thin. I have been reading the Bible lately and becoming more religious. Can you tell me what this dream means?

Kayla

Susyn:

You dream has many interesting clues for you to examine. For starters, it is a sign that you need to look more closely at yourself, at who you are and where you are headed. This type of dream often inspires the dreamer to make important changes in their life in order to better align with their soul and destiny.

As a Gemini, you were born into the world with two separate and distinct personalities. We all have a light and shadow side, so it is interesting to note that God referred to a girl named Kelly who used to be called the shadow. The fact that she disappeared is very important, for it suggests that God was referring to a part of you that was hidden or buried early in childhood.

The girl's name is not as important as what you learned about her. Numerologically, the first name Kelly is a number two, which again suggests that there are two sides to you. Your name Kayla vibrates to the number five, which reveals that your intellectual nature is much stronger than your implied counterpart. Number vibrations are similar to astrology; they can influence us but do not absolutely define our personalities or destinies. To learn more, enter your full name and date of birth into a numerological website and find your destiny numbers.

It's interesting to note that in this dream, you were presented with a picture of a girl who looked very similar to you except for her size. This may indicate that when you were younger (and smaller), you had a much broader, more complex personality. Most of us can identify a point in childhood when our innocence and optimism were diminished because some event caused us to pull back and hide certain aspects of ourselves.

In the dream, you were told that you were religious. Religion is a good starting point when people begin to explore their spiritual nature. However, please be cautious about getting involved with any group that might try to control you through fear or moral edicts. You are perfectly capable of connecting with God one-on-one and making your decisions based on intuition, awareness and dreams such as the one you have described.

I feel this dream is calling for you to revive the small child within you and integrate her into your current life. When you feel stressed or confused, that's a great time to call on Kelly, invite her into the light, and learn more about her. A guided meditation or psychic reading can help you learn more about her as well, which will make it easier to meld with her and bring these two parts of yourself back together.

Oceania:

Dreams are often about wish fulfillment, and dream characters are often a part of us. The name Kelly is a thinly-disguised version of Kayla since both contain the letters K, L and Y. Since black-and-white photographs are associated with the past, Kelly is a younger version of you who has since disappeared. She is thin like a shadow, as you once were when you were younger. You dreamed of her because you would like to recover and embrace that lost part of yourself - not just her size but her identity, too.

I encourage you to ponder whether the letters in Somsky bring anything to mind. I notice that it contains all the letters in smoky. Just as hazy smoke obscures vision, you were unable to see clearly that Kelly is you! The word also makes me think of some sky. Are you spending too much time indoors, reading? Do you long to breathe fresh air and see some sky? I recommend you walk through a local garden or park and let Mother Nature nurture you.

Dreams are symbolic, so the black-and-white photo may also represent black-and-white (all-or-none) thinking. It's not a matter of fat or thin; there are many shades of gray and many weights in between. The recent documentary Forks Over Knives, which depicts a loving approach to health and weight-loss, would be worth your while. Most libraries also carry DVDs to help you exercise at home; as little as ten minutes a day would make a difference!

Back to all-or-none thinking: it's not a matter of you being religious or not religious. Pleasure and virtue, body and soul don't have to be mutually exclusive! When we examine the history of the Western world, we see that the ancient Greeks and Romans found value in all aspects of humanity: physical health, intellectual pursuits, artistic expression, sensual pleasures and good character.

Between the fall of their civilizations and the late 1400s, about a thousand years went by during which Christianity promoted asceticism. It was deemed better to suffer in this life as Christ did and put off rewards until the afterlife. The Renaissance brought renewed focus on the joys of earthly life. I believe we can celebrate these joys AND live spiritual lives.

If you are overweight, you may be using food to numb out painful feelings. Becoming very religious is yet another way to avoid oneself by focusing on the soul and excluding the body. I encourage you to seek some counseling so you can reclaim Kelly along with any lost feelings and wisdom she may hold. Bring her out of the shadows and into the light!

Astrea:

Many times in life we hear, "You will always have what you NEED, but not necessarily what you WANT." Your spirit must have needed to experience the feeling of leaving your human body, and the suggestion in the next chapter of Sylvia Brown's book was all it took to get you there.

Even though you hadn't read it yet, your SOUL recognized the title of that chapter as something it had been seeking, and your soul, knowing that you had that reference to read after your experience, got with it and out you went!

While I don't usually recommend her books, Sylvia Brown has a wide reaching and powerful effect on lots of people. A Gemini like you would be able to relate easily to her writing and put it to good use. Synchronicity - you gotta love it!

I like your description of "getting caught." That's exactly what it feels like, isn't it? One minute you're free and hovering above the room, and the next minute, ZAP! back down into your corporeal form you go!

As a little kid, I loved that "feeling of return." With practice, most of the time we can control that event, but sometimes, when our physical ears hear a distracting noise or something else occurs to knock us back into reality, back we go. With practice you will be able to control your return better.

I find it interesting that you were visiting your mother-in-law and not someone in your own genetic family. Evidently, you and your husband got married for reasons that are even deeper than love. His family's interest in "psychic stuff" will nurture your children in such matters and help them to grow into their own abilities.

You'll never have to be concerned that when your daughter visits them, she'll be discouraged from exploring her own psychic life and power. My parents encouraged me to develop my psychic senses in a time when it wasn't nice to even discuss such things in public. Heck, it's STILL not considered a great topic at the dinner table in some families!

Your kids will get to talk about it ALL and ask questions and read and study. This is going to give them such an edge in life! Talk with your husband about how you want to present this to your kiddos, so that you are united in your approach and ready to tell them their experiences are all natural and okay.

A word or two of warning: Geminis often have difficulty staying grounded in REAL LIFE. Don't get so strung out on your ASTRAL life that you neglect what you're doing here on Earth.

You are at the beginning of a long journey to learn where your power really lies. Try to be patient with this process and take your time.
