June 16 through June 22, 2025

Two major astrological shifts are in store this week, beginning with Mars’ one into Virgo on Tuesday, followed by the Sun’s entry into Cancer on Friday. With a Pisces Moon overhead Monday and Tuesday, we probably won’t get much done, as this moon could make it difficult to get any traction as we move in circles around the things we were hoping to accomplish. This will change of course, when Mars, the planet of action, moves into Virgo and speeds things up. Over the next two months, Mars will be instrumental in helping us accomplish the goals that have been slipping through our fingers or ending up on the back burner since May. With this kind of power behind us, we’ll be able to accomplish anything we set our minds to! The Moon will travel through Aries Wednesday through Friday, adding even more fire to our movements and desires. When the Sun moves into Cancer on Friday, we’ll feel a shift in the air, as it marks the start of a new season, as well as a call to return our attention to home, family, and security. For the next four weeks, our focus will be on nurturing others and building the support we need to feel emotionally secure and centered. The weekend unfolds under a Taurus Moon, encouraging us to stop and smell the roses, and simply enjoy the many blessings in our lives.

Three Ways to Heal Your Pet Using Energy Techniques, by Cyndi Dale

(Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

It's extremely difficult to watch our pets suffer or struggle, and even more so when the allopathic remedies we try don't alleviate the problems. Because of this, I'm an eager advocate of energy healing for pets, no matter what type of pet you have—mammal, rodent, arthropod, amphibian, aquatic, or reptile.

I should know the benefits of energy healing for pets. At one point, I was a single mom with five animals and three children. One day, every single one of my dear pets required assistance, and it wasn’t the sort that could be handled by a veterinarian. The guinea pig was chattering incessantly, while chewing frantically on his carrots. The brown Lab was moping about and the Golden Retriever was throwing up. The usually gregarious bunny was scurrying away from contact and the cat wouldn't leave his perch on the hutch, hissing when anyone neared. I was only able to help all five pets because I could draw on my knowledge of—and practices related to—energy healing, having been practicing over twenty years in the energy medicine field by that time. For each pet, I employed one of three basic approaches afforded to subtle energy practitioners to soothe and mend our pets. These are easy methods, and are (along with others) showcased in my new book, Energy Wellness for Your Pet. They are as follows:

• Fixing the disturbed chakra
• Releasing negativity
• Working on our own issues

Using my lovely pet family as examples, I'll reveal how I used these techniques to help my five pet friends regain their balance on that fateful day, years ago.

Fixing a Chakra
Chakras are subtle energy centers present in all living organisms, including pets. Each chakra manages a specific set of physical, psychological, and spiritual concerns.

The latter means that when our pet is exhibiting a problem, whether the warning signs involve illness, strange behaviors, or emotional disarray, we can assist them by tracking the symptoms to a related chakra. After that, a pet-friendly companion can problem-solve for practical resolutions and also direct subtle energies to that chakra. And then—voila! We boost our pet's wellbeing.

For pets, I work with the twelve-chakra system that I use for humans. In pets, chakras serve the same functions as they do in their people companions, although there are differences between the locations, as well as depth and breadth, of certain chakras. There are also variations as to the tasks performed by a chakra, depending on the type of pet. So you can assist your pet with chakra magic, I'm including the following outline about pet chakras. Included is the name of the chakra, its overall job, and its typical location. What will be unique about pet versus human chakras? For example, pets have "bud chakras," energy centers that are part of the tenth chakra. The tenth chakra is located underneath the feet and bonds a pet with its environment. Because pets are closer to Nature than are humans, the bud chakras add another layer of interdependency on their earthly surroundings, enabling them to pick up on climactic changes and more.

In terms of making an assessment, I recommend matching a pet's major symptoms to the related chakra. One way to accomplish this is to track an imbalance to a bodily area. For instance, my chit-chatting, compulsively chawing guinea pig, Max, was obviously stressed in the mouth area, which relates to the fifth chakra. Yet another method is to follow the trajectory to a chakra based on the type of distress. Max's problems also matched the issues governed by the fifth chakra.

Once we settle on a distressed chakra, we can then decide how to best clear and heal that chakra, and therefore, decide how to alleviate our pet’s concern. As discussed in Energy Wellness for Your Pet, you can support a pet's chakra physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

For Max, I started with practical research and discovered that while guinea pigs can eat carrots, there is too much sugar in them. I decided he needed a more varied diet and pledged to provide him a more colorful array of fruits and vegetables, in addition to his guinea food.

I then examined his behavior through a psychological lens. What was Max trying to say? All I did was think this question and he stopped yakking and stared at me. He was sending me a message, which I discovered had a spiritual bent.

When we're working psychologically, we're examining a pet for an emotional imbalance. When we're digging spiritually, we're entering realm of the soul. I meditated deeply and asked Max's spiritual guides to better let me understand his communique.

I saw a number of psychic images that reflected the problems being experienced by the other four pets. I understood. Max's ultimate purpose was to tend to my little community. His own emotions were in turmoil because the other pets required assistance. Speaking aloud, and also holding the quality of reassurance in my heart, I promised Max I'd figure out the other pet's problems.

To complete Max's healing, I asked Spirit, the name I use for my Higher Power, to send Max healing energies. Holding my hand over his neck area, I could sense the higher qualities of peace and calm make their way into his fifth chakra. He immediately went to sleep.

I next interacted with the brown Lab, Coco. It was easy enough to assist her. She was exhibiting physical symptoms, the universe of the first chakra, and so, I assumed she was laying around for a physical reason. Wouldn't you know it, the pathways she used to walk around in the back yard were blocked. Coco was deaf and blind, and so, obstructions posed a significant problem for her. I cleared out her walkways. Once she was able to move around again, she perked right up.

For the other three pets, I employed different techniques, which I'll describe next.

Releasing Negativity
Sometimes we have to help a pet "release negativity," a code phrase for getting rid of dark entities or forces.

I frequently assist my human clients with this endeavor, having discovered that many problems stem from entity attachments. Entities are invisible but very real beings that connect to the living for one of two reasons; they either want to steal life energy or grab the living being's spiritual light. Pets are just as vulnerable to these sneaky forces as are people.

How do you know if a pet is impacted by a negative force, especially if you don't have a Max in your household to clue you in? The following are a few intuitive indications:

• Empathy: In the presence of a negative entity, you might feel off, sickly, or very cold or hot. Then again, you could simply sense that there is something not good connected to your pet. Another clue? If you think your pet isn't acting like itself, it might be getting acted upon by something else.
• Visual Cues: Take a few deep breaths and ask to see what's impacting your pet. An image might arise in your mind's eye or even via your everyday eyes. A negative entity will look like a nasty creature and is usually connected by a cord or a linkage to your pet.
• Verbal Cues: Ask the Spirit if a dark force is impacting your pet and to give a verbal response. You might hear an answer pop in your mind or think about a poem, story, or song convincing you that this is the case.

To help heal a negative attachment for a pet, simply request that the pet's spiritual guidance or the Spirit send the energies necessary to release any unhealthy binding or attachment. This same energy will also heal your pet or anything or anyone else involved in the damaging association.

In terms of my pet household, I discovered that Johnny the Cat had an interfering entity connected to him. He had only recently joined the family and had been in a humane shelter before then. Most likely, he had also been previously abused. Harmful entities frequently attack animals who have been mistreated, as it's relatively easy for those dark spirits to steal energy when an animal is in a weakened condition. Asking for Johnny to be released immediately brought him down from the hutch and returned him to his friendly ways. I believe he had been hissing at the entity, actually.

Working On Our Own Issues
In esoteric circles, it's a well-known fact that pets mirror our issues. Sometimes their behavior reflects what we're doing and should stop, or conversely, shows what actions we ought to take. Other times, pets absorb energies that are disturbing us, as they like to act like our healers.

Both Honey the Golden Retriever, who was throwing up, and Bunny the bunny, who was frightened, were sponging up my imbalanced energies.

As per Honey, a few days earlier, I had come down with a stomach bug. It had seemed to clear up. I tuned into Honey and received a psychic image of a red ball of energy in Honey's stomach. I knew immediately that Honey had taken my solar plexus issues into himself.

The question was, what did I need to work on to heal him and myself?

When I attuned to my own digestive area, I started to feel rage. Then I remembered that I had been angry at a friend right before my gastrointestinal upset. I hadn't dealt with the emotions and so the energy had started causing a physical pain, which Honey had taken on. After spending time deciding how to deal with my own emotions, my own anger and Honey's illness ceased.

I also discovered that Bunny was reflecting the same issue, although in a different way than was Honey. Growing up, I wasn't allowed to get angry, and consequently, felt scared of the emotion. Bunny was acting out my fear. After deciding that I could now release my fear of anger, Bunny jumped into my lap.

As these examples show, pets can be very responsive to subtle energy work. One of the best reasons for using these processes, however, isn't only how handy and powerful they are. We employ them because we love our pet.

As Roger Caras once said, "Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." Substitute the word "pet" for "dog," and you have the reason for using energy healing processes on your pet.

I frequently dream of being pregnant and going into labor. I always see myself in the last stage of pregnancy and my mother taking me to the labor room. Nothing else happens. I am married with a two-year-old son. I'd love to have more babies, but not until he is three - that's for sure! I strongly feel that this dream is an important sign for me but I'm not sure what it means. I have it at least once a month. Please help me out.

Though you've become a wonderful mother, it's natural for you to have some dreams that don't seem to mirror your waking life. Fatigue can contribute to all sorts of recurring dreams. With a new child in the house - especially a first child - you're probably not getting enough sleep.

Often when we're experiencing the fatigue that arises from caring for a Small Fry, we'll have fitful, worrisome dreams. New mothers and fathers are naturally restless and a bit anxious. It would be interesting to find out if your husband is having strange recurring dreams lately too.

Dreams that involve pregnancy are some of the most common to recur.

It's fun and interesting to look up all the different possible meanings for pregnancy dreams. Here is a list I've kept (and keep adding to) for years. Perhaps one of these interpretations will strike you as apt.

*A new person is coming into your life who will change your views.
*A hidden family issue is about to be addressed or you will reveal a family secret to clear the air about a longstanding issue. A family problem will be resolved in a reasonable timeframe.
*You are changing to a new religion or faith, or you are coming to a new realization about your religious faith.
*You will embark on a new career.
*New financial or romantic opportunities are coming your way.
*An idea or plan you've been working on for a very long time will work out as you want it to.
*You will be pregnant and have a baby in the future, or you are pregnant now.
*You fear becoming pregnant and this is an anxiety dream.
*You wish to be pregnant again, so your subconscious is sending you wish fulfillment dreams.
*Your concept of happiness is changing. You are rejecting old values and de-cluttering your life to make way for a new life. The new you is the baby who is about to be born.
*The baby represents another person with whom you have control issues. As the mother, you are in control.

Some of the things in my list come from old-fashioned fortune telling, and some come from psychology, but in every single instance, CHANGE is the major issue. Your dream could fit any or many of those possibilities, but something around you is changing or the change you made in your life with your new baby has you dreaming of more.

Experience has taught me that when people dream of pregnancy, the change they undergo is always for the better, for it means more love and happiness is coming their way.

Susyn:

While dreams of pregnancy don't always indicate an actual birth, they do indicate new beginnings. What's interesting about your dreams is that they are always centered on going into labor as opposed to other stages of pregnancy or the moment of birth.

This suggests that you may be stuck in some type of cycle that is very labor-intensive but never seems to end in success. If you think about it, you may realize that some aspect of your life is going in circles. For example, if you labor to gain a promotion or recognition at work and none comes, or if you are trying to create more friendships in your life or break out of the isolation of being a stay at home mother, those frustrating endeavors could be causing these dreams.

Since your mother is always with you in these dreams, they might address some aspect of motherhood that you feel stuck in. They could also speak to issues you have with your own mother if that relationship is a difficult one.

Keep in mind that when a dream repeats itself, it is encouraging you to look at certain things. Once you do, the dreams should either subside or change considerably. You may want to take a quick review of any areas of your life that feel stagnant or repetitive so you can identify where change is needed.

There is another possibility to consider regarding this dream. Although you plan on having more children, you are trying to control the timeframe regarding when that happens. Perhaps the Universe is prompting you to consider becoming pregnant again soon even though it does not match the plans you've set for yourself.

You mentioned that you have this dream about once a month. If you begin a dream journal and record the dates when it recurs, you could discover that you normally have this dream when you are ovulating or right before your monthly period. If this turns out to be the case, the dream is definitely sending a message that your body is ready to become pregnant again.

Because you are physically controlling the timing with birth control or abstinence, your inner guidance may be asking you to change what you are doing in order to honor a higher plan. This may also explain why you always see yourself going into labor but do not give birth in the dream ñ you are already a future mother to a certain child, but that child hasn't been able to be born yet.

These dreams are trying to get you to pay attention and make a change, which means they are very important. Once you figure out what they are trying to tell you and respond accordingly, the dreams should cease.

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.
