The healing forecast (January 2012)

Using the ancient spiritual techniques and tools (Prayers, Runes, Crystals…) this fortnightly column intends to bring you general guidance to support you on your healing journey

By Shahin Ashraf Ali

Aries
Your cast reminds you that life is always neutral. It is your thoughts that make it good or bad. The healing counsel for you is to be an active participant in life and witness how you sail more easily through life. You always have a choice in every situation. You can choose your attitude as well as your action.

Taurus
Raise your happiness quotient no matter what happens. Find your own happiness trigger. It may be a song, a saying, a scene. For the trigger to work you need to be able to imagine it strongly. See it, feel it. As you do so, you will experience the much desired change – within and around you.

Gemini
There may be some tough times that could leave you feeling drained. The counsel is if you can always speak in ‘I’, ‘me’ and ‘my’ terms when in a painful situation, you will avoid blame and abuse. By not antagonising the other person, you will be able to prolong the communication and create balance.

Cancer
Should you face negativity around you during this period, your spread asks you to check your thoughts and actions. The atmosphere you generate as a result of your thoughts and your actions influences the people around you. Think about how you can add to the spirit of life rather than subtract from it.

Leo
When the situation you face seems so black that you can’t imagine a way out, imagine yourself bathed in sunshine, warmed and cheered by it. See yourself smiling with the sheer pleasure of sunning. This esoteric exercise will help you create your own sunshine!

Virgo
The healing message for you is: when you are down, try jolting yourself out of the depths by imagining situation worse than your own. Return to your own situation. You will see that your problem is manageable.

Libra
Stop wallowing! Wallowing is a negative way of giving attention to yourself when you are down. Wallowing will only keep you down. Give yourself attention in a more positive way through a compliment or an indulgence.

Scorpio
Your cast indicates that you maybe unnerved and or perhaps despondent about a past mistake. The healing cast reminds you that a mistake is a gift. It offers you an unparalleled chance to have another go, to reflect on what has been done and to do things differently next time.

Sagittarius
To make the most of this period, hone your sense of humour. Laughter is a tonic and a balm. Laughter alters your perspective. Do all you can to turn your present conflict into a humorous situation.

Capricorn
The key word for you is Caution. Challenges may be in store. The counsel is to avoid collisions. If you go headlong into battle the chances are you will be injured. Find a way of operating that is not confronting or threatening.

Aquarius
Do not be daunted by the enormity of your task or by the overwhelming hurdles you face. You can be absolutely certain of one thing: nothing stays the same. Perspectives change even from one day to the next. Keep your faith firm and focus on your karma for the moment.

Pisces
If you find yourself wanting to hurt someone in the same way they have hurt you, think again. Replicating pain duplicates it. What you really seek is no pain. As you give love more, you will also receive more.
