April 22 through April 28, 2024

Mercury will officially turn direct on Thursday, but let's give it a wide berth until May 1st when the shadow period ends and clears out the remnants of its recent retrograde activities. We'll also have a full Moon in Scorpio on Tuesday, which will carry the most influence over water and earth signs. Full Moons are a time of release, and with Mercury retrograde about to end, we'll see a lot of endings this week, as certain things come to a close and we prepare to enter a new cycle of being. The Scorpio Moon rules over the heavens Tuesday through Thursday, calling for us to go within to examine what no longer serves us and what we want to keep in our lives. A more light-hearted energy fills the air under Friday and Saturday's Sagittarius Moon, where we can shift our focus to the joys in our lives. We'll experience a new sense of freedom and a genuine sense of gratitude, which will be apparent for all around us to see. Sunday's Capricorn Moon may call for a time of accounting, whether we're taking stock of our finances or physical health, both of which could use a rebalancing!

Spiritual Regression: Why Are You Here? by Brynn 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 would like to know if there is a common thread among psychics in terms of how they experience or "know" things. For example, on Psychic Chat - which is electronic and somewhat impersonal or indirect - the psychics have been incredibly "right on" about certain people, events, etc. How do they "know?" How does the information come to them, and is it the same from psychic to psychic? Also, it's been my experience that psychics are much more accurate about what is true NOW than in the future. The things I can confirm about the reality of my life and the people in it are right on the money! However, when it comes to the future, things are fuzzier or more hit and miss, and there appears to be less accuracy. Why does it seem more challenging for a psychic to be as accurate about future events as they are with current circumstances?

- Terri

Dreamchaser:

I'm really glad you asked these questions, for I've wanted a chance to speak on these very subjects.

No two psychics (or any other term for someone who is blessed with the "gift of sight") see/know/feel things in the same way. In my case, I know things because they come to me in the form of my own thoughts. I just think it and "know" it as fact.

For example, when you look at the color red, you just know that the color is red. It comes in thought form to you that it is red and you know it to be a fact. My "gift" comes in much the same way. I just know what is true.

My birth mother, on the other hand, smells things. She will smell someone and know from their smell what they are about. I can't understand her way, and she can't understand my way, but we both come to same bottom line using our own methods. If you ask the psychic you are working with, they will gladly explain how they receive psychic impressions, even if it makes no "logical" sense.

As far as the "indirect" nature of Psychic Chat, you have to remember that energy travels. We do not need to be physically close to someone to FEEL them and LOVE them. When a child goes away to college, they can still feel the love of their family from far away.

In the same vein, I do not need to be close to someone physically to read them. I can sense and feel their energy from wherever they are. I read the energy, not the person. I think the internet has really opened up the world to knowing that energy does travel. So many fall in love or form friendships with people they have never even met via the internet. That proves to SO many people that energy transcends physical space and time.

As far as reading the future, so many people fail to realize that free will plays a HUGE part in determining what will happen. For example, I could tell you that you are going to get a great new job in two weeks time, but if you do not go on any interviews, will you still get that job?

I am usually asked this question when it comes to love. How many people have you dated that changed their mind, got scared, or for some reason just ran away? How many times have you changed your mind and walked away from someone else? Usually fear is the cause behind someone changing their mind and backing away from a love relationship. Fear is never easy to see clearly because its roots are so complicated, and each person's reactions to it are so unique.

No one - not even God - can predict free will. If you change your mind after the time of the reading, it will change the outcome foreseen. So please remember that free will directly influences the future.

I wish you great readings.

Astrea:

Terri, the only common thread I've ever found among all psychics is that we all want you to be happy and fulfilled. Because we all receive information DIFFERENTLY, I can't make generalizations about anyone but me. My formula for getting answers is to have someone ask me a specific question about something that is happening in their lives. First I'll have a FEELING, then I'll use astrology and tarot to explore what will most likely happen.

To me, Psychic Chat is a very direct, personal experience. I'm typing, you're typing - we both have our hands on the keys. You're at home (or work - shame on you!) so you're in your own environment, and I'm in my office, where I'm comfortable and happy. We're CONNECTED in a way that for me is much better than sitting in a room with someone who is nervous to be there.

I usually see what's going on before I even touch my cards or look up a chart. Most of the time, I'm accurate. I predict outcomes with as much certainty as I can, but here is where that pesky free will comes in! Even if two people have wonderful potential for happiness in love, for example, that doesn't mean they're going to choose to make the most of it.

It's also so frustrating when someone comes back and quotes me as saying things I never said. Here's a biggie: "YOU said I should CALL him!" Most psychics I know don't do "should." We're not your parents! Maybe I said it would be okay to try calling him. When we go out on a limb or experiment with various situations to see what happens, things happen that NO psychic could predict. Sometimes people hear what they want to hear, and no matter what anyone else says, they're going to do what they want to do and blame us for any disasters that ensue.

I can't tell you why the psychics you're chatting with know more about the PRESENT than the FUTURE, because I am the world's worst at reading the present. I can see things MUCH better when they're about two to four weeks away. Because the present is changing moment by moment with the free will of all involved, I prefer to look for long-term outcomes.

The person who says, "Will he call me today?" is getting my best GUESS at that time. The person who says, "Has he read my email?" isn't going to get much from me, because MY ability doesn't work that way. What I do is much more important than determining whether someone has read an email or is going to pick up the phone. I want to see you HAPPY, and one email or phone call doesn't make up the beautiful tapestry of your life.

You control your own life and your own destiny. All any psychic can do is give you what CAN be, which is not necessarily what WILL be.

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.
