Communication, research, and innovation are the themes of the week as the Moon travels through thought-provoking signs and Mercury moves into the idealistic sign of Virgo on Thursday. With a Virgo Moon overhead on Monday, we'll start the week out by organizing and refining our thoughts, goals, and plans for the future. Tuesday and Wednesday we'll be striving for balance under the Libra Moon, double-checking facts, and making sure our ideas are sound and attainable. Mercury will move into Virgo, one of the signs it rules, on Thursday, speeding up our thoughts and inspiring our visions for the next three weeks. Combined with a Scorpio Moon, we'll move beyond the tangible and consider alternate ways to bring our dreams into reality. The pace will slow a bit over the weekend, as the Sagittarius Moon encourages us to lighten the pace and spend more time interacting with others in social and fun-loving ways. Just be sure to write down those flashes of brilliance when they pop up this week, for further investigation next week!

Spiritual Regression: Why Are You Here? by Bryn Blankinship

(Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

Spiritual regression is a great way to resolve inner conflict through deeper self-awareness to begin moving forward in your life rather than staying stuck and not knowing why. As a transpersonal hypnotherapist, clients arrive at my office seeking guidance or answers to questions they have about themselves and their place in this world. Often, they are feeling overwhelmed and in need of spiritual recharging, or are searching for clarity and purposeful direction in their lives. While a past life regression alone can be a cathartic experience, identifying and clearing karmic carryover from a lifetime or two, it often isn't enough to provide the deeper answers to their life's mysteries for which clients are searching.

Through thousands of session hours with hypno-regression clients, I developed a technique called Soul Expression Spiritual Regression (SESR), as a way to achieve a great alignment with one's soul. A SESR session ("assessor") offers an assessment or review of your current life permitting the magnification of your soul in the current mind and body. SESR strengthens the connection to your soul's innate wisdom and provides a current life assessment, giving you a clearer sense of who you are, your unique gifts, and what you are here to do.

SESR helps you identify and review the past and future simultaneously from the perspective of the current life with direct guidance from your soul and spiritual team to find and follow your soul's guidance, identify negative patterns, and move through issues more quickly by allowing you direct access to yourself. Each session is unique, but what clients have in common is that they each bring to light information in such a way that they are able to resolve long-standing issues to move past previous limitations and feel freer. It's a way to re-discover your life's purpose and take more responsibility in your life in knowing that you are here by design, not by accident, that you are loved, and that you are not alone.

You are here on purpose, for a purpose. Armed with this wisdom, you are able to better navigate your life and call upon help from your spiritual team in a true partnership with them. Your spiritual team gives guidance from their respective vantage points. Your Soul Advisory Team offers the bigger picture, especially in pre-birth planning, while spiritual guides and teachers offer assistance with the details of making that happen. It's your role to stay open to the assistance being given so that you can accomplish what you came to Earth to do while improving the relationship with yourself through your soul's various incarnations. All events are part of the divine plan…the perceived good and the perceived bad. It's part of the duality of this earthly realm.

In my book, The Limitless Soul, are a collection of case studies from actual client sessions revealing the complexities the soul faces by design throughout its many incarnations, and how revisiting certain times in your soul's history can provide insight and release energetic blockages that are impacting your current life incarnation. It is a chapter-by-chapter look through the eyes of clients in deep trance at different past life and afterlife cases to explore many aspects of a soul's incarnations, showing that life is not a random series of events. Souls learn with each lifetime. As one spiritual guide states, "No life is wasted; there are lessons in every kind of life."

The clients in The Limitless Soul sought insight into the mysteries of their existence and earthly lessons for their current incarnation, and their sessions carry messages with universal appeal. Each chapter includes practical soul-minded exercises for the reader to begin their own process of awakening to soul.

The following is an excerpt from Chapter 7, "The Gifts You Brought with You," where we explore the preplanning aspect of the current life incarnation and how it influences current life decision-making as well as provides skills and abilities needed to fulfill the life you are currently living. Many of my clients experience in session what Claire so eloquently describes here while in a deep trance state.

Claire is interested in SESR to explore and recharge. "I want to be aware of the afterlife in this plane, hold a little piece of it in my heart, and let it recharge me," she shares. What follows reveals that all lives have meaning. Your existence affects others one way or the other simply by your having been here.

The SESR session begins. Floating along the current of her soul's consciousness, Claire moves to the womb close to the time to be born. Claire's spirits are high. She's coming to bring enthusiasm. It's needed on Earth and she happily signed up for it. Her time is spent floating, sleeping, and planning what she'll need for the life that is coming.

Suspended there, she receives information that flows directly into her cells. These instructions are sent from "home"—from that place where they help you build your "suit with your traits that you're going to be," Claire explains.

She reveals that the soul helps create the part of the suit where you agree what you'll be. Then the ones who help you in pre-birth planning tell you how that will happen and the traits and personality that go with that. It's talked about, planned, and designed by them for you before you incarnate. They're like tailors. They take what you're planning to come for and make a suit for you to wear. The suit has the memories in it that activate later when you need them.

"You can't see the suit," she explains. "At different times it will help you to do what you're supposed to do, like how you see the world... It's on the inside. It's what makes you laugh at some things and not others. It's hooked in. It's the suit you put on to get born and has all you need in it... it's your 'Birthday Suit.'"

Next Claire moves through a doorway and directly into the cosmic realms. Her guide, appearing as a ball of light, patiently takes her along this pathway through the stars, so she can feel them and absorb the atmosphere here.

Claire becomes aware of others and is curious about her soul group, those souls who incarnate together playing different roles in one another's lives throughout their various incarnations. She recognizes several from her current life.

Continuing to the Soul Awareness Area, things she has done are playing on a big viewing screen. Claire explains, "Everything is here and there is information everywhere—who you are and who you always were...it's all here, backward and forward from all of your lifetimes."

I am reminded that Earth is an emotional planet. It's where souls come to experience the range of emotions. Half the battle of existing on this planet is managing one's emotions. Claire is told that emotional help is needed on Earth. "There are many changes coming our way on Earth…I'm to help with compassion…" she reveals. "Lots of different people will soon be helping...teams of them...the pulse of all the spirits are all changing."

She's shown a heartbeat that speeds up and slows down. A piece is placed in her heart to hold as a reminder while shifting her vibration for the work she's to do.

In Soul Reflection, she recalls a past life where she had not spoken up for someone and it cost him his life. She punished herself by living out her days alone in a cave. In her current life, she has the opportunity to overcome this karmic carryover.

Claire's guide signals that itis time to visit her Soul Advisory Council, wise beings like a special committee, that support souls with their incarnations. Five white, light beings are waiting for her. She feels nervous to be in their presence. They are pleased with her and tell her they hear her when she asks and are helping. Her guide adds, not to worry so, her "birthday suit" has what she needs!

Following the session, Claire seems stronger and with less self-doubt, and her energy field looks bright. She has a clearer sense of purpose and understanding of her uniqueness as a soul and as the person she is now, finding solace in knowing her connection to the divine plan. She knows it is okay to speak up more and use her voice, and that she was born with everything she needs. She looks great and feels grateful to be charged up!

No matter the path that leads them to my office for SESR, clients like Claire are seeking a deeper understanding of their earthly existence. Empowered with the self-knowledge of who you truly are, you can move forward, comforted in knowing that your spiritual team is always with you to help them succeed.

When given glimpses into the spiritual realm you see that we're all here as part of the bigger plan. As you consider your own role in the divine plan, connecting with your useful purpose brings happiness and contentment when you are doing what you came here to do. The following exercise can help you uncover your unique gifts and begin to explore your part in it.

I see and feel a white wavy shadow on my right side. It tries to communicate with me, touch the right side of my face, change the temperature of my body, and mostly try to possess my body or take me to the spiritual side. This started about three months ago, and now I'm able to see it, though not perfectly. I'm wondering what to make of all of this. Thank you!

Each of us fears the unknown. While this being is a stranger to you in this dimension, it may be well known to you in another. It seems to be a Being of Light rather than Darkness, and is probably here to help you with something you're facing now or in the future.

A specter, shadow or spirit that appears on or behind your right side is usually benign, so there probably isn't reason to worry. The right side is usually the good side, which is why many children were discouraged from being left-handed in the 1950s. In many superstitions, the left is the so-called bad or evil side, while the right is the good or positive side.

Believing this entity is something positive will help you discover its purpose. This is probably a Guide or an Angel, trying to come through to inform you of something in your future or help you change some negative energy or feelings around you now. When you feel it wants to possessyou, it's simply trying hard to communicate what it needs to tell or show you.

Touching you also tells me that this Being doesn't mean you any harm. Creatures who want to possess us don't gently touch the sides of our faces. This Being is trying to get in your face so you'll notice that it's trying to communicate with you.

Since it's been around for three months, off and on, it is patient. If by take you to the spiritual side you mean it's trying to kill you, that won't happen. You can only let evil in by opening the door, and based on your question, this entity hasn't done anything evil.

Now that you see it better and more often, the best way to find out what it wants to tell you is to meditate. Whatever you do in order to get into a calm, quiet state, do it now. Make time at the same time every day to concentrate on this new friend. Protect yourself by surrounding yourself with White Light to keep it from completely invading your person, and find out what it has to give you.

Though it's probably a friend to you, and will come through to you with a positive message or a warning of things to avoid, to be on the safe side, don't let your protection down while you're in that calm, open state. Over time, you'll be able to use its friendship whenever you want to, not just when it wants to communicate with you.

My first thought is that this may be the spirit of someone you know who has recently crossed over. I sense it is longing to become one with you or bring you to the place where it now resides too. However, I don't believe that this entity has the best of intentions, whether it is familiar to you or not.

This could be a friend or a mere acquaintance, but it is probably not someone you would consider a loved one. With more research, you might be able to recognize who it is.

Whether this is the spirit of someone you know from this lifetime or another, or a discarnate entity who has lost its way, it seems that it wants to be as close to you as possible. I recommend you investigate further to discover what this is so you can get rid of it before it begins to influence you in negative or harmful ways.

You might learn who this entity is and what it wants via a guided meditation. To perform this guided meditation, sit in a quiet place and breathe deeply until you feel calm, centered and surrounded by light. Visualize this entity in your mind, and invite it to come in and talk with you.

Ask it directly what it wants. If it confirms that it wants to possess you or take you to the spirit world, respond in a strong, confident way that it cannot have you or your body. Then ask it to leave.

There is also the possibility that you have attracted a negative spirit, and it has attached itself to you. These discarnates or lost spirits select an unwitting person to attach to in an attempt to find a host for their souls. They are afraid to go towards the light and completely cross over, so they try to stay connected to the earth plane via a living human being.

If this turns out to be the case, you will want to seek out a psychic or Spiritualist medium to communicate with this entity and implore it to go towards the light or return to its place of origin. Having a professional by your side will empower you to rid yourself of this entity more quickly and effectively.

These experiences appear to be occurring more frequently as people grow spiritually and become more aware of other dimensions of existence. The good news is that as we develop new awareness, we simultaneously gain new skills for ridding ourselves of spirits who may try to negatively influence us.

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.
