Cycles, July 29: Mercury Retrograde Challenge!
|
Hello Reader, Once again, it is that time of the year. That one, where we all collectively hold our breath and start creating long lists of "don'ts" - don't buy a new car, don't go on trips, don't schedule job interviews, etc. Yes, we are approaching the August 2024 edition of Mercury Retrograde. Don't know what Mercury Retrograde is about? Not to worry — here is an article from two years ago in which I explain it in more detail. This time, I am not in the mood to write avoidance lists. Today, I am going to write a list of what to do during Mercury Retrograde. And my list will have one item only — DO practice a Hawaiian Healing Mantra for forty days in a row! Many of you know the Hoʻoponopono Mantra and have probably practiced it already. If not, here is a helpful website I consulted earlier today for my own reference. I just started it today. Can you tell the difference in my mood? Here I am writing my newsletter and feeling all enthusiastic about it. What better proof that a spiritual practice work than the reconnection with your sense of joy and wonder? Seriously, though, what better time of the year to practice healing mantras than during Mercury Retrograde? Your mind is naturally focused inwardly, and the time is right for revising, revisiting, and redoing everything that you messed up during the previous rounds. Anyone up to join me in this challenge? Commit HERE, and in September, if you have lived up to the challenge of practicing your mantra for 40 days straight, I'll do a raffle and one lucky and spiritually advanced being will receive a free 30-minute pre-recorded astrological reading with me. As for JSJ self-help, how about opening SEL 1? After all, the Ho'oponopono Mantra is supposed to get us out of the mental rut of past regrets, shame, guilt, and self-judgment. Combining it with SEL 1, we'll get the energy moving to clear up any blocks or stagnant areas. As always, if you don't feel like holding the inside of your knee (SEL 1), you can hold your thumb. Easier and more comfortable that way. Happy 1-ing, as Wayne Hackett would say! Best, Tatiana Quick Announcements Missing images on TravelersGuideToHealing.info. If you have noticed missing images on the TravelersGuideToHealing.info site, it is not by design. Some time ago, I discovered many of my pictures on the website had disappeared. It may have been during one of the many WordPress Upgrades or some other maintenance bug. I am not even sure if I can bring all the images back, as I lost many originals during our house fire in 2020. Tuck Yourself with JSJ. A JSJ self-help class is coming in the Fall. It will be in a totally new and original format, and it will focus on how JSJ can help us with sleep projects. I'll announce the details as soon as I sort them out in the next month. (Thanks, Mercury Retrograde, for giving me time and space to revise, review, and redo some projects!) Coming Soon. I am launching an Internet Magazine this Fall. It will be a dedicated space for everyone who straddles the conventional and alternative worlds in a quest for unity of existence. It will be our dedicated space to exchange ideas, showcase our practices, get to know each other, and much more. Stay tuned for details.

Hello Reader, Welcome back to Cycles. In just over a day, the Moon will reach fullness and enter Earth’s shadow in a total Lunar Eclipse. You may already feel the shift—last night it rose through the trees, stark in size and color, a vivid reminder that this is a powerful time for release. A Dream Practice Two nights ago, I asked my guides to heal subconscious trauma, guilt, and regrets while I slept. The Full Moon is ideal for release, so I thought: why not ask for the big help? Sure enough,...
Hello Reader, Well, Uranus certainly wasted no time making an entrance. Yesterday it crossed into Gemini at 0°, and just two hours earlier I got a call I never expected: a project I proposed last year was suddenly approved and fully funded—seven months after I’d written it off. That’s Uranus energy in action. Sudden, out of the blue, impossible to miss. Of all the slow-moving planets, Uranus is the one you feel most clearly because of its abruptness and surprise. Have you noticed any...
Oh my goodness, people! I just realized I had overlooked one of my email accounts for the last month. Yes, it is the one where many of you contacted me to tell me about the new site Effortless Reality, the new mini-classes, and more. I just responded to most of the emails, but I wanted to address some issues that were common. Thank you all for your feedback and encouragement. Your emails mean a lot to me. Something is wrong with the Squash Your Inner Critic, Part 4/5 email in the sequence....
