May 20 through May 26, 2024

There are a lot of astrological activities going on this week, beginning with the Sun's move into Gemini on Monday. This will set the stage for four weeks of heightened communication and the urge to learn all we can about everything! Gemini's trait of curiosity will prevail, and we're sure to learn some amazing things in the process! The Moon will dance through Scorpio on Monday and Tuesday, which could bring an intense energy with it. Let's try to pace ourselves and not get caught up in details or timelines, as this energy can have us moving at lightning speed but not making much progress. The Moon waxes full in Sagittarius on Thursday, followed by Venus' move into Gemini. Sagittarius and Gemini are fun and light-hearted signs, so we should feel a calmer and more flowing energy during the second half of the week. A Capricorn Moon prevails over the weekend, which is a good thing as Jupiter moves into Gemini and Saturn moves into Aries on Saturday. These two transitions could create a bit of upheaval but thanks to the Capricorn Moon, we should be able to traverse them with ease!

Past Life Healing: Take Your Hearth Back! by Shelley A. Kaehr, PhD

(Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

Over twenty years ago, shortly before my strange, near-death experience, I began hearing my inner voice say, "There's something wrong with your heart and you're not going to live much longer." Shortly thereafter, I found myself lifting out of my body one night, floating into that multidimensional space in time where I met some light beings who non-verbally directed me to return. The experience was pretty typical for these kinds of phenomenon.

Around this same time, I received more visitations from a friend who passed away years earlier and also sought out my first past-life regression.

One of the phenomenon I don't mention much but that is incredibly important is the fact that during that session, aside from the epiphanies I received from going into past lives, something incredible happened that changed my life for the better. I got my heart back. Allow me to explain.

During the session, I met with my deceased friend and asked if he had anything that belonged to me. Lo and behold, to my stunned amazement, I saw my heart appear on his hands. I couldn't believe it! I "imagined" myself lifting the heart from his hands and placing it back in my chest, and I had an immediate sensation where I felt that I became whole again and fully operational. In fact, whatever sent me into that light, the mysterious "virus" that nobody could diagnose at the hospital ER the night this happened, never, ever came back again. I suppose my inner guidance was right. Kind of. There was something wrong with my heart—I didn't have possession of mine.

You may wonder how such a thing could happen, and yet this is something that comes up quite often in regressions and like me, it can be one of the most important healing outcomes people receive during a session. Here are a few of the many ways people inadvertently give their hearts away:

1. On the playground in school: We've all had young love, right? What if your tender heart fell head-over-heels in love with the cute kid with the freckles and curly hair on the playground in grade school and somehow, unbeknownst to you, you gave your heart to him or her, along with a tender kiss? Believe me, this happens all the time!
2. In adolescence: I must tell you that every day of my life, I thank God that I am not a teenager anymore. Remember those raging hormones? Thinking that something had ruined your life irreparably forever? Yeah, me too, and it wasn't fun at all. So imagine how you may have willingly given your heart to that first real love. You forgot all about that person, but your heart is still with them.
3. In adulthood in your current life: There are too many examples to name where this may have happened to you. You may have given your heart to someone later in your current life, and again, the challenge is that you are probably like me—totally unaware that you've done that.
4. Past Lives: Our souls are vast and we have traveled through the multiverse in many lifetimes, many bodies and lot of experiences. Again, there are so many possible places where you could have dropped off your heart and you may be living your current life without something that you have not held in thousands of years.

You may wonder why this is important, or why you should care to take note and action to rectify this situation and take your heart back from whoever you gave it to. Let me share a few of the many results of this action:

1. Physical Challenges: Like me, you may have a physical heart challenge. Please know that if that's the case, you obviously need medical attention. But what if there is something beyond the physical? We do hear much about the fact that many diseases and illnesses begin in the spiritual realm. For me, the reconnected heart really helped me tremendously!
2. Relationship Challenges: I cannot tell you the number of people who wanted a regression to try and find out why they could not get a relationship to stick who found out that they did not even have their own hearts! It's kinda tough to love somebody if a medieval knight or an Irish princess took yours from you or you gave it away and had no idea you'd done it. This one issue and consciously reconnecting your heart can easily remedy that problem!
3. General Challenges: We're all one, and yet we're all so different. The heart is so wise and because we now know that your heart actually has its own brain (your stomach does, too, according to the HeartMath Institute) so when it's missing, you could just lack overall vitality, have difficulties getting even business things going. We all should strive to love what we do, right? But what if we can't because again, we're too busy loving that gorgeous person back in ancient Egypt?

So how can you remedy this challenge? My latest book, Journeys Through the Akashic Records has tons of guided imagery exercises designed to help you find the answers to all the big questions in life. In the book, I've included all of the one-off exercises I've used successfully with clients who have unusual challenges, including one where you meet with the higher self of someone and experience something similar to what I did years ago that was so helpful. The process involves asking if another person has something that belongs to you and then taking it back. The taking it back part is another area that gets tricky for some people. What if you don't want it back? What if you want to love so-and-so forever? Well, that's entirely up to you, of course, but I will encourage you now and in the book that your life will be more complete if you have your heart intact. Who knows, you may find someone else you'd like to give it to later! (I'm kidding, of course. Please keep it! You need it!)

And for those who took a heart from someone else, a phenomenon that also happens, please, give it back. You will lighten your energetic load and feel better and more able to move forward with someone else or in new circumstances that will hopefully lead to greater joy and happiness in the current lifetime.

That's the reason why we do any of this in the first place—to make the now a more wonderful adventure. Pick up a copy of Journeys Through the Akashic Records, and while you're at it, please pick up your heart!

My husband and I both had a best friend who passed away about four years ago. I care for my husband very much, but I was also deeply in love with this friend, though I kept this to myself. I helped take care of my friend during his final illness, and still visit his mom and help her out when I can. My husband often asks our friend for little signs that he is still around, and he gets them. I do not get "replies" as often, but I also try not to be a pest. Recently, I asked for a dream to let me know how things are with him and how he feels about me. That night I dreamed that I knocked on his door and he answered, but was obviously on his way somewhere. I apologized for bothering him, and he left. I then sat on his doorstep, thinking about him and missing him. He came back a short time later with another guy, and I got the feeling he was helping this man. I felt foolish that I was still there, and quickly made my apologies and left. I sensed that my friend felt sorry for me, but that he was very busy. I felt that I should have moved on by now and should not still feel such an attachment to him. I actually felt rather pathetic to be caught sitting on his doorstep like a sad puppy, waiting for him to come back. I am somewhat in a rut in my life due to some other issues. Now I feel that maybe I have been (and still am) a burden to my friend, like he doesn't want to hurt me, but he thinks I should let go. I really trust your advice and would love to hear your take on this if you have time. (I am Sagittarius, my husband is an Aquarius, and my friend was a Leo.) Thank you so much!

Dreamchaser:

First off, the dream was not a sign from your friend. It was a dream that came from a place that holds your own fears and doubts about him and how he felt about you while he was alive.

Because of your deep feelings, you are not objective enough to see the signs. That is why your husband "gets" them with no problem while you feel like you are left out in the cold.

Your friend is happy, healthy, whole and in a place of complete and total love. There is no way he would pass over you like he did in the dream if he was sending you a sign. If anything, he would have sat down with you and explained in his own way why you need to move on.

Your dream was just a dream. In your psyche, this friend is a symbol of love to you. You are not dealing with your actual friend in the dream; he's just a symbol for love in your heart and mind. This dream was all about you and how you really feel about yourself. You do not feel worthy of the kind of love, attention, kindness or respect you most desire.

While you are sitting on the doorstep that is really your life, the rest of your life is passing you by. You are feeling sorry for yourself, are waiting for something better to come along, and feel powerless to do anything to fulfill your longing.

Your friend is also a symbol of something inside of you and in your world that has died. The hope for greater happiness that you used to carry in your heart died when your friend did. You are still holding on to the ghost of that hope instead of replacing it with something living and vital.

If you want that kind of love, get up and find it inside of yourself. Much like today's other answer, you need to find this unconditional love inside of yourself before it will arrive in your outer experience.

You stated very clearly that you are "somewhat in a rut" in your life due to some "other issues." You are looking for a way out of that rut, and right now, you are hoping to find someone or something to come and save you and make it all better.

I'm sorry, but your friend is dead. Any love that he feels for you from the Otherside is not really going to help you on this side.

Please know that you are in no way, shape or form a burden to your friend. He so appreciates the help you gave him when he was dying and your help with his mother now. However, he is not the one for you to love.

First you need to love yourself. Then address your marriage and whether or not you want to stay in it, and then work on creating the love you want with a man, whether that man is your husband or someone who comes along after you divorce.

Let go of this friend not for his sake, but for you own. It's time to come back to the land of the living.

I wish you love and peace.

Astrea:

Each of us recovers from the death of loved ones in our own way and in our own time. For me, it takes about five years to start to make a dent in that emotional pain.

I'm a Sagittarius, like you. We feel death very deeply because we were born at the close of the year. Things that are final are VERY final to us, and it's hard for us to move on.

When it comes to death, Scorpio and Sagittarius folks both feel it differently because of their closeness to the death of the old year. While others may be just as affected by death, somehow I think we have a deeper understanding of it.

In fact, when I examine grief, I get something different for every sign:

Death is always a shock to Aries, because Aries tries to be in control of things all the time. Taurus always seems to take it the hardest. Gemini will try denial. Cancer grieves deeply but privately. Leo keeps moving. Virgo gets tough with the funeral director to hide the sadness.

Libra retreats and holds it all in. Scorpio pretends to be immune to death. Capricorn becomes a rock for other friends and family. Aquarius grieves, recovers and moves on. Pisces emotes intensely and gets it all out.

Your Aquarius husband has grieved and moved on; this is why your friend sends him more signs. Your friend knows your husband has dealt with his sadness, so he's not afraid that reaching out to him will upset him. (He doesn't want to upset anyone.)

In fact, the reason you don't get as many signs as your husband is because your friend doesn't want to bother YOU. It's because he knows how sad you are and how you felt about him when he was alive that he's tentative in his responses to your requests.

He's still pretty new at spirit communication, and he doesn't want to make any mistakes. My impression is that he was like that in life too: He didn't want to upset anyone or throw anything out of balance.

If you keep asking him to, in time he'll be able to talk to you. He can't yet communicate in words to you, but with that dream, you're getting closer to that level of experience with him.

Your dream was simply a reflection of your anxiety that you are "bothering" your friend with your problems. You are NOT a burden to him! He's glad to be in touch with you when he can be.

Of course, he's busy being happy in Heaven, but he'll never be too busy to let you know how much he cares about you. He still loves you and he always will.

You'll be reunited someday. While I'm sure it's different from how we experience love in life, I'm POSITIVE that we'll be able to experience love in the Afterlife.

Have faith that this is so. The way he lives on Earth now is through you, your husband, and the family and friends who love him. Love never dies.

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.
