But where there is good news there is bad news. Negative energies are on the move and for anyone with empathic or psychic abilities may be having a difficult time.

Many people are going into a shadow work period in their lives. This is also a normal thing during this time as you are already taking time to assess yourself, life and what you want.

I have some tips to help get through this!

I would highly recommend going through and search at the top of the group for past posts about calm, balance, shadow work and meditation tips and tricks!

1. Meditate

2. Be in nature (outside in your yard, in the woods, in the mountains, on the beach)

3. Be patient with yourself and others (It’s ok to lose it, just bring it back)

4. Do something for yourself (it is not selfish, it is self care)

5. Hobbies (take time to enjoy hobbies you already love or try a new one)

6. Read (Fun, educational, spiritual)

7. Exercise (walks, hikes, yoga, cardio, weights, etc)

8. Grow! (Push yourself outside your comfort zone and learn, grow and change)

9. Take a bath, go swimming, walk near the water, or even just take a nice long shower

10. Spend some time alone just getting reacquainted with you.

This is a time of a lot of change which can be both positive and negative. Remember, you have support through this!! 🖤💜

This is the egg cleansing from my BOS

Egg Cleansing

Egg cleansing is a great way to do a spiritual cleansing on yourself. You should do this if you are feeling sluggish, insomnia is getting worse, if you believe someone has used black magic against you, when something important ends, if you are feeling distant from other or if you are feeling blocked.

You will need:

An egg

A white candle

Salt

A glass of moon or cleansed water

1. Light your white candle and leave it lit. Let it continue to burn under it is done.

2. Say a blessing, prayer or set your intention to the higher beings to use this egg to protect you.

3. Start at the top of your head or at your third eye and feel it draw out all of the blockages, negative energies, etc. do this for a few moments

4. Take the egg and down it along your entire body. Starting from the third eye to your face, neck, arms, legs, stomach, back. Focus on your chakra points.

5. Take the egg and crack it into the glass of water

6. Allow the egg to sit for a moment

7. Read the egg results

8. Put salt in the glass

9. Now take the glass with the water, egg and salt and flush it and all negativity away with it.

10. Allow your candle to continue burning and take some time to reflect on what you have learned from this cleansing.

Interpreting the egg reading:

1. If there are bubbles, this means that your guides are working hard against the evil or negative in your life.

2. If you can see a tinge of blood in the water, then it means that you are being cursed.

3. If there is no blood but the water is cloudy, it means a loss of energy in your part.

4. If you see a figure in the yolk, you need to further assess this figure. Is it animal, male, female.

A. Animal- there is a problem in your life that you have been overlooking... it is time to deal with the problem

B. Slender face is male

C. Round face is feminine

D. Cloak figure means that you are very ill and should be check out by a doctor

5. If there is a foul smell in the water from the egg and there is blood, this is a very strong sign that something is very wrong... you may be under attack.

6. If the yolk turns into an eye, that means that someone has given you the evil eye.

There is of course other things that you may see. Make sure to record all finds and ask for more guidance from your deity, angels, or guides.

Fall Meditation:

Try to do this outside in your favorite place in nature or somewhere that you can get comfortable in your home.

1. Connect your body to your breathing. Slowly breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Pay attention you your mind and body relaxing.

2. Visualize fall. The colors(reds,browns,greens and yellows), the feel of the cool breeze on your skin, the smells of the leaves, grass and air. Envision yourself as an oak or willow, or the sunset on a late autumn.

3. You have to search inward and find the areas of your life that are heavy, painful or feel wrong. What burdens and unnecessary things are you carrying, what is keeping you from connecting, from growing.

4. Allow yourself to start on your inward journey. Connect to higher self and challenge yourself to step outside your comfort zone. Who do you want to be, what do you want to do, what do you want out of life.

5. Allow yourself to picture how things can be and search for how to do this. What do you do to be the person you want and how do you get to where you want to be. What traits, emotions, people, and things do you need more of to achieve this goal.

Ostara represents many things including being a symbol of fertility, new life, new beginnings and change. Things that represent Ostara are similar to things that represent the Christian holiday Easter. Eggs, rabbits, grass, seeds, flowers and light pastel colors.

While doing something in nature, whether hiking, gardening, walking or just sitting in the sun or under a tree, you can honor the goddess by saying something like this:

“Mother Earth, Goddess of life,

May my gifts, time and energy be of value.

Today, while I am here,

May you accept my offering

As an act of love from me to you

Astral Projection Binding

Things you need:

Frankincense (resin or incense)

Black salt

Anise, Sage, Lavender

Black Obsidian, Amethyst, Citrine

White candle

Sigil that you have created for this

This is a two part process to bind someone from astral projection during sleep.

1. Prepare materials

2. Have the person lay down in the place that they sleep

3. Light your incense or resin

4. Light your candle

5. Place the stones (use the setting that feels right to you)

6. Place a ring of black salt, anise, sage, lavender in a circle around the bed

7. Envision the circle becoming a bubble, cage, or box

1. Allow yourself to mediate (this may work best if you are sitting next to the enclosement you have just created)

2. Search and find the energy for the person that you are binding

3. When you come to the enclosement that you have created, you will want to draw your sigil into the top of the enclosement

4. Allow your energy to seal the “spell”

(Extra: you can have a verbal spell that you speak, this should be from the heart (a simple example: I bind, XnameX, from leaving their body during sleep, as I will it so mote it be.)

5. Ensure that you have ended the spell by speaking “as I will it so mote it be.”

I actually find that placing a boundary around my home allows all who are in the home to roam inside the home without being able to leave. (Those who AP without trying, can find that not being able to AP during sleep can cause anxiety, insomnia, etc when unable to travel.) This is very similar to the binding of the bed in process.

When I walk my home to place protection around the barrier, i make sure to add into the barrier, all realms that are accessible. I add to it an energy signature which allows only my energy to pass through to other realms.

1. I light frankincense in the living room

2. Light a white and black candle

3. I mix frankincense resin, black salt, anise, sage(oil/herb), lavender(oil/herb)

4. Go around the Perimeter of the home while spreading the mix

5. Place stones at each corner of the perimeter

6. Use your energy to raise and create a barrier around the perimeter of your home

7. While building perimeter add in the specific wants/needs
