I lost my voice. I had a cold, the first of any illness in three and a half years, masking and distancing kept everything at bay. Like everyone out there I regularly get something about once a year. I’ve heard people diss other healers for getting sick like we should be superhuman or something. We’re not. Sometimes I feel guilty when I get sick, but this has more to do with the fact that after my parents were divorced it was a hardship for my mother to have to skip work to stay home with me due to money strain. Throughout my twenties I often went to work when I was sick due to the same, needing the money.
I taught a class on Saturday, I was already on the road to feeling better as I had used all of my herbs and healing potions and immune system support tools nonstop all day Friday, which was when the symptoms first started.
But that dang full moon woke me every hour or so Friday night, so I did not fully get the rest I needed. It’s pretty common for me to have sleep disruptions during a full moon, the doggies do as well. So even when I can ignore the intensity of it, they make sure to wake me a few times throughout the night.
By Saturday night my voice was just a hoarse whispery thing. So, I am doing something VERY challenging for me, not talking. Resting the voice is key in repair. Resting is key in any repair of anything and everything. I’m good at napping and not so great at not talking. It doesn’t help that Jon is also a talker. He keeps trying to talk to me, and I just keep smiling and nodding or shaking my head right now, with the occasional throaty response when needed.
But my voice! Ugh! I do feel fear when I lose my voice as it is a primary vehicle for my self-expression and my work.
I also spoke by phone with my father who is an Aries last week for the first time in years. This throat chakra/voice thing seems to have a connection to this, and I’ll explore this soon in another processing-out-loud piece.
In Venus good news, she’ll be moving out of the post-retrograde shadow aspect on the 7th. All of that self-discovery work while she was retrograde this summer in helping us identify more clearly who and what we love will begin to bear fruit.
We’ll be gathering on Zoom this Wednesday, October 4th at 2:00pm Pacific time for our regular monthly event. Registration is here
How are you today?
I’m sorry you’re not feeling well Nora. Sending you love and healing energies ✨💚 I finally listened to the fall equinox webinar last night, and I am reminded of the throat chakra portion the P’s talked about. This continues to be an intense and activating time. I just learned that my husband and I owe a significant amount in taxes, and just feel crushed right now. It has brought up a lot of grief, despair, and anger. Particularly anger at the capitalistic structures that cause so much suffering around money. It was really helpful to listen to the equinox webinar last night because it spoke to the underlying wound and healing I am experiencing which is connected to Pluto and Capricorn, and what Yeshua talked about in relation to the first wound of separation. I am working on holding a 5D perspective while dealing with 3-D problems and feeling my feelings about 3-D reality. Really really really ready for some gentleness and is ahead. Wishing that for all of you as well.
I, too, am feeling sick. Have a cold and not sleeping great. My head feels balloon-like - spacy and pressure. Not fun. It is not helping with a sense of disorientation after busy season for work. We'll see how the week progresses. On the plus side - the weather is gorgeous here. Having some warm and rain-free early October days which is most welcome.
I'm sorry you and others here are feeling under the weather . . . hoping your voice comes back and, in the meantime, hope you get some rest and sending love.
