India is on a 21 day lockdown to fight with corona virus along with many other countries of the world. Below are a few things for self care that you can practice everyday for a healthy mind, body and soul. 1. Practice Healing This is a good time to spend this lockdown period doing the 21 days healing cycle. If you are trained in any healing modality, please practice it for self healing for 21 days. If you are not trained in any healing technique, follow my guided meditation for self healing. (link given below). 2. Send healing to Mother Earth everyday for at least 5 to 10 minutes.  Reward Yourself  You have been tough on yourself and been giving a lot of your energy to the external world. It is time today to reward yourself. Be gentle and kind to yourself, take some rest, give yourself that treat you had been thinking of. Make time for yourself today. A balance between giving and receiving is needed so that you can keep giving unconditionally. Do things that inspire and motivate you. Most importantly, treat yourself with kindness just like you would treat a child. And remember to have fun.
 We are in as good health as we can imagine for ourself. There is an ancient Indian proverb which says - Everyone is a house with four rooms, a physical, a mental, an emotional and a spiritual. Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time but, unless we go into every room every day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person. We often tend to focus on the physical aspect but never really talk about emotional, mental and spiritual health. Energy healing techniques like Reiki, Pranic Healing etc. focus on healing and harmonising the energy in the body and being. We are beings made of energy. When this energy is not freely flowing, we experience problems in our life and/or health. When this flow is harmonised and balanced, we experience a state of holistic health. An important aspect of energy healing is self healing. If you are not in good health, you cannot serve optimally. If you are initiated into any of the healing modalities, use it to clear your energies and energy centres. However, if you are not initiated into any healing technique, you can still heal yourself using the Chakra Meditation mentioned below. A note about energy centres: Energy centres are called Chakras in Sanskrit. Their function in simple terms is that they are the places from where body breathes in the energy from the universe. They then circulate the energy into various parts and organs of the body. A healthy chakra means a healthy body. Most alternative healings involve healing and clearing the chakras. Aries (21 March – 20 April) The year 2020 will start with a bang brining you opportunities for success and fame. The trend is likely to continue through the year. But the year also will bring situations that will force you to move out of your comfort zone to grow and evolve. Find your uniqueness and strengths rather than comparing with others. Don’t let that comparison dull your shine. First half of the year will be focussed on career and growth. The second half will bring your focus to your relationships. This is an area that you need to pay attention this year. If there have been relationships that have been exhausting and draining you, it is time to create some distance from them so that you can breathe and relax. There is no need to take any decisions, just a need to have some space. Good time will be spent with friends. Avoid overindulgence in food and lifestyle.
 One of the components of healing is creating healthy boundaries for yourself. If you have never heard of this idea or think that boundaries are not needed in close relationships, you are not alone. Many people have no idea about boundaries, how to create them or assert them. For them boundaries mean huge walls of alienation, aloneness and telling people to *%&# off. Boundaries are you defining your space, asserting yourself and your existence. Boundary is about what you accept and what you won’t accept and tolerate. People who have often found themselves as being treated like doormats don’t have any boundaries in place. They are in dysfunctional relationships where the balance of giving and taking is highly skewed. They don’t have any idea of what they like, dislike, how they want to be treated or how to express their desires, they may not even have the idea that they are allowed to express their desires and have them fulfilled.  If you come from a family where you have been abused as a child (I am not talking of just physical and/or sexual abuse that is visible, but also of verbal and emotional abuse which by its very nature is covert and hidden and leave deep emotional scars,) you will have impaired boundaries or no boundaries at all. Your desires, feelings and thoughts did not matter, were often put down or mocked.
This could have been explicit by making fun of you or shouting and yelling at you, it could have been implicit or hidden by making fun of you and calling you too sensitive, criticizing you, shaming you for having such thoughts in the name of “improving you” or “for your own good”. If you were engulfed and not allowed to make decisions, think for yourself, not allowed any privacy, you were not simply allowed to have any boundaries where you could exert your individuality or even understand your preferences.  It is winter solstice on 21st-22nd December when the sun is furthest from earth and it is longest night or shortest day. It is a time for hibernation, I.e. going within to meditate and contemplate. Solstice brings intense energies and opens portals for change. This is time for meditation and contemplation. Going against the flow os energies and trying to be active when you body wants to go into rest and meditation, creates problems. This solstice will bring up stuff that has been bothering you subtly since some time. You may be feeling tired, cranky or foggy. Mood swings are a part of this energy shift. Here are a few things you can do to use this energy shift in the best possible manner. 5 simple tips to cleanse and balance your energies this winter solstice Since the last few days, it seems there is a wave of intense energy in the universe that is prompting changes in many people’s lives. Whenever change happens at the deeper levels of the being, a lot of repressed stuff and patterns come up to be addressed and healed. This is not a comfortable phase as the emotions that are triggered by the changes happening in current relationships and workplace and past events and memories that are surfacing can be too intense to handle.
In such times, it is important to know and be equipped with some tools to handle your emotions and thoughts. One of the most powerful tools to handle emotions that I have known is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Once the emotions settle, it is easier to look into the event and understand what’s really going on and what needs to be done. Another simple technique that can be used additionally is cord cutting. In our everyday life, whenever we interact with anyone in any way, energetic cords are formed between them and us. If you have been feeling drained and exhausted off late especially after interacting with someone physically or over the phone or Internet, you may have negative energy cords attached to them. If you have a problematic association or interaction with someone and you are connected to them strongly on an emotional level, the cord cutting can help you immensely by clearing the negative energy and creating space for clearer communication. How to cut cords  Goddess Maeve - Cycles and Rhythms
When we talk of cycles and rhythms, we are not necessarily talking about external time. We are talking about internal clocks. Just as life goes through cycles of up and down, so does our body. There are times when the energy levels are high and at times they are low. Learn to honour these cycles and phases and flow with them instead of resisting them. When the energy tide is high, use that time to take actions in the external world, execute your plans, meet people, socialise, spend time doing something active. When the energy tide is low, use that time for quiet contemplation, meditation, planning, day dreaming and doing internal work whether its healing, awareness or prayers. The Chinese call the the concept of Yin and Yang. Yin energy is the feminine energy (not the female energy). It is associated with night, period of rest and meditation. Yang energy is the masculine energy which is associated with action and work. Honour these cycles by flowing with the energy of the body. If you try to push yourself when the energy is at the low phase or low tide or vice versa when you try to meditate or plan when the energy is at high tide, you create resistance in the body and energy field. This creates blocks, problems and frustration. When women go through their menses, that is the time of feminine or yin energy cycle. Use that time to rest, meditate and do inner work. Even men go through the Yin energy phases. Learn to recognise your energy cycle and flow with it.

We are almost approaching the end of Navratris and it has been a very transformational journey. Today’s message for the Goddess oracle is by Ishtar Goddess who is asking you to set and assert your boundaries firmly. Often we associate boundaries with pushing people away or creating walls. But the purpose of boundaries is not to push people away but to create healthier relationships. Boundaries means what’s acceptable to you and what is not okay for you. Most of the times we assume or expect people to know how to behave with us but until we don’t tell them or show them what are our boundaries, they are likely to cross them at some point. This can create resentfulness and conflict within yourself. You will either react or keep your reaction to yourself creating passive reactions. Both these approaches can really harm your relationship with your loved ones especially. So be wise and define your boundaries. Be very clear about letting others know about them also. It's not offensive, rather its a better foundation for your relationships. Remember, if someone is offended by your boundaries, give them time. If they still get offended every time you assert it, then maybe they haven’t been and in all likelihood, will not respect your boundaries and space ever. It's better to let these people go. Whenever you define your boundaries, you create space for yourself to breathe, grow and have healthy relationships.

We spend so much time paying attention to others, their needs and opinions. Today is the day for you to pay attention to yourself. You cannot serve from an empty cup. You need to take care of yourself first before you cans serve others. Also very often we undermine and undervalue ourself and base our life on others’ approvals and standards. We never stop to imagine what would we want from our own life. It was found that one of the biggest regrets of dying has been “I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.” Today unleash your divinity from within, don’t be scared of your power. True power never harms anyone. Only when you suppress it, it lashes out in anger. Get in touch with your feminine side through dance, creativity and self-care. Have gratitude for what you have. Appreciate yourself for who you are. You are perfect in every sense. Stop listening to those who say otherwise. Love yourself, take yourself out on a date. Spend time doing something that you really like and have wanted to do. Stop the excuses and stop being harsh on yourself. You deserve all the love. with Grace and Light Meetu Sehgal For in-depth and personal tarot readings, you can connect with me on 9953753637. I also offer personal transformation coaching sessions.
