https://astrologyking.com/neptune-retrograde/

During a Neptune retrograde new encounters and critical life events can be triggers to past memories of pain. The source of the pain that is being escaped from may be revealed during this time. Feelings of humiliation, betrayal, being anxious, afraid or remorseful may be more intense at this time. Inward focus of problems and situation is associated at this time. Depression and anxiety may occur at this time. Self help study, counseling are useful as well as healthy lifestyle choices of meditation, Yoga, Tarot, Astrology and Swimming will be helpful at this time.  Some conspiracy theories and suspicions may be based in truth due to the heightened psychic nature of Neptune energy. Misdiagnosis is a risk associated with this aspect so getting a second opinion is advisable. Religious persecution is also associated with a Neptune retrograde. Escapism is also linked to this retrograde so be on alert especially in regard to health matters and avoiding reality.

Chiron Retrograde July 15 and December 19 of 2021, Chiron is retrograde in Aries

https://www.yearly-horoscope.org/chiron-retrograde-in-aries-2021/

Chiron, the Wounded Healer, is associated with spiritual hurts, blocks, and situations that undermine us and make us feel helpless.  Gaining insight into this weakness that we experience we are able to help and offer to heal. In the Sign of Aries, self-realization is the key, being the authentic self.  Feeling safe in who we are and using this as motivation helps counter a defeatist attitude and be empowered to reach our goals in spite of foibles. This realization helps make our mess our message to help others. Truth and spiritual awakening are a result. The Aries energy can manifest as anger to right wrongs with concrete methods for change.

The Saturn retrograde with Saturn square Uranus is associated with extremely challenging times but also makes a trine aspect to the moon, Venus and North Node which is associated with a more harmonious situation and enhanced ability to find solutions caused by the Saturn square Uranus challenging aspect.  Adapting and making step by step changes to a new life structure is recommended. The Moon trine Saturn aspect is associated with balance and having the responsibility and energy to reach long-term goals. This energy is also beneficial to relationships to men and bosses with help coming from elders and leaders. Higher self-worth is achieved from achievements and community support. The Venus trine Saturn aspect is associated with committed love.  Romance linked to a past-life contact or different age group is is favored as a soul-mate union. Ongoing relationships are also favored to be stable as well as finances with practical solutions. 

The Moon trine Venus is associated with romance and friendships, as well as beauty and charm, harmony and combined with the trine in Saturn produce unfettered works of beauty and creativity. The Saturn trine North Node is linked with being practical and patient with good relationships to authorities and elders which help build a stable self-paced methodically achieved situation.  This Saturn retrograde is in the Capricorn constellation in the Sea Goat between the two stars Armus in the belly and Dorums in the tail of the Sea Goat. Armus which is Latin for shoulder is the stronger influence as Saturn has already passed its position. Armus is linked to statesmanship, politics, religious and humanitarian causes, which help to shoulder the burden in times of crisis.  The Constellation Capricornus is linked to major changes in climate and politics.

This aspect is linked to new love relationships beginning and it also help to reunite soul mates who separated due to Saturn square Uranus. Whatever is hindering your productiveness is what Saturn retrograde focuses on until this situation is overcome.

This Mercury retrograde takes place between the lunar eclipse in Sagittarius and the Solar Eclipse in Gemini. This aspect is associated with endings, beginnins and major turning points. With the Gemini energy (mutable sign) there will be a need to adjust to several different changes at once.  Flexibility is needed to focus on the different issues and tasks presenting themselves. Mercury conjunction with Venus and a square aspect Neptune in Pisces focus is on values and beliefs and whether they are still relevant or are keeping us from seeing the situation with clarity.

This retrograde will be the most intense for Gemini with major life changing events. Remaining focused on wanted outcome and be flexible with any changes to make the dream a reality. This Retrograde will be challenging for Virgo, Pisces and Sagittarius due to the square aspect of Neptune in Pisces and major life changes.  Some negative experiences need to be dealt with and clarity is needed to redirect life direction when the retrograde transit has passed.  This Retrograde is most helpful for Aquarius and Libra being Air Signs and the trine of Mercury being retrograde to Gemini.  This is a time of evaluation of what is and what is not working in life. New life perspectives while help inspire and motivate for a new life path.  Making a list of changes needed to achieve the desired result will help navigate through the Mercury retrograde and give new direction to life when this retrograde transit has passed.

Cara’s Crystal Cave

Cara’s Crystal Cave of Healing is my blog about Crystal Healing. There is a Facebook Group, Cara’s Crystal Cave of Healing. Members can ask questions about Crystal Healing. Weekly there will a designated day for shout-outs for Crystal Healing Services and Products.

Question:  I want to use crystals for Crystal Healing.  Which crystals should I start with first and how do I begin?

Thank you for taking the time to write in.  Crystal Healing is a form of healing that has been used for centuries in the Ayurvedic system of healing from India.  Learning how to use a clear quartz pendulum to health dowse is a good way to start using crystals for healing. 

There are seven main Chakra centers, the Root, the Sacral, the Solar Plexus, the Heart, the Throat, the Brow (Third Eye), and the Crown.  These Chakras are part of the Auric body which is a copy of the physical body.  By balancing the Chakras you are healing both.  As you dowse over the Chakra center you are doing a reading.  Clear Quartz is known as the “master healer” and helps to clear any blockages in the Chakra center which might block the flow of Prana (life force) flowing through the Chakra System. 

Health Dowsing

Clear Quartz Pendulum for Health Dowsing for Blockages

Once you know which Chakras have blockages you can target these areas with corresponding crystals used to strengthen that Chakra.  See the diagram below for the placement of the Chakra crystal healing grid. 

For individual crystal uses and how to make crystal essences see Crystal Prescriptions book by Judy Hall, published by O Books, 2005. 

Crystal Healing Grids

Crystal healing grids using sacred geometry can also be used for the Body and for the Environment.  See Ethan Lazzerini Crystal Grid Power, published in 2017 which comes with a download of various printable Sacred Geometry crystal grid templates that can be used.  A sample of these grids are available from his website as well.  https://www.ethanlazzerini.com/free-crystal-grid-templates/   

Crystals can also be placed in the home for healing and to help bring abundance and well being and for protection.  https://www.ethanlazzerini.com/crystals-for-your-home/
