Healing Places
Last week was a big week for me. I went home, back to the place I was born. Somewhere I now love to be but also somewhere where a great deal of physical, mental and emotional trauma has happened to me. In fact most of the most difficult things that have occurred in my life occurred in that place.
I went back this time with a wish to heal, with a NEED to heal these things. I’ve done lots of this kind of work before and have done some healing around the places where traumatic things happened to me but this was different. This was a pulling together of ALL of it. And I knew it would be big.
The thought of doing this has come up at New Year when I was talking to a good friend who reflected to me that it seemed that alot had happened to me in the place where I was born. He shared his experience of healing he had done on a similar place in the world for him and how it had helped. The idea was born from there.
I travelled down with my best friend and with a box full of crystals - ready willing and able to heal. My intention was to start the healing on the Equinox and finish under the energy of the New Moon which felt like a really potent and fruitful energy for the healing. I made a grid which you can see here to support the healing.
It’s full of
Selenite for spiritual connection to the highest vibration and to make the most of the energy of the Moon.
Black Tourmaline for grounding, deep cleansing and protection.
Smokey Quartz for cleansing and protection.
Kimberlite for obvious reasons! Kimber is my last name and is derived from old english for Warrior by the way which felt very appropriate.
Ancestralite which promotes deep ancestral healing.
Jasper - both Picasso and Poppy for grounding and healing.
Lava Stone - For deep cleansing and healing. Lava has been through a baptism of fire and still remains light. It felt like a very appropriate stone.
Rainbow Moonstone to connect with the Moon and for feminine Yin healing.
Shiva Lingam for Yang healing.
It felt like a nice meaty grid to support a deep healing. We set the grid up on the Equinox so it was ready and working for the next day.
One the day of the healing I took my friend to all the places around my hometown where trauma or violence had happened. It felt very deep and activated some deep feelings in me but I was held by the grid, by my friend and by the Universe. I could feel my ancestors with me supporting me. It was very powerful. We gathered the energy of each place into an energetic chalice of healing with our intentions and with Reiki.
We then went to a place in nature that was full of fond memories for me. We found a nice tree and some running water and my friend channelled Reiki while I said the Forgiveness Affirmation and the Cosmic Diamond Flame affirmation out loud.
I felt a sense of power, of healing, of release and of freedom knowing that I could let the past go. We then went and had lunch because I think it’s always grounding to eat after something like that and we wandered round the down having a lovely time. It felt good to do something fun and pleasurable after such deep work.
I am still processing the healing but I feel a sense of deep peace about it. I feel like I have not only done something deeply nourishing for myself but also something really beneficial for the energy of my family and my hometown. I will never forget the feeling, the energy or the connection to the Earth and the Universal Energies during this healing and of course the love of my Best Friend.
