While Western astrology is primarily predictive, Indian Vedic astrology offers solutions to planetary afflictions. I have often been asked if Reiki can help us overcome these obstacles and how.
Reiki can help tremendously curb the afflictions of our planets when practiced correctly. I encourage you to go beyond the consumer mind-set, beyond the desire and control mind-set, and beyond the temptation to use Reiki and the planets to get what you want. If this is your attitude, no solution will work beyond the short term and you can practice for decades with no results.
The first step is to understand that we are born with a certain planetary configuration by choice. It is not past karma punishing us but us at a soul level choosing these challenges in order to grow in compassion and maturity. So to begin with, we need to stop looking at the afflictions as something to be fixed, and more as a lesson to be learned.
Secondly, your horoscope is not a permanent, fixed thing but a directive, merely an indication of your starting line. For example, if you are planning on growing a garden, maybe your horoscope says that the east portion is dry and there is water logging in the South. Some limitations can be worked upon and resolved. Others cannot be transcended, like in this example if you have a garden in India, there is no way you can grow tulips or blueberries, but you do have a choice between having a beautiful garden and no garden. That is what astrological remedies are here for, to help you see what your flawed tendencies are, to shine a light on the things you can work on, and to help you change that.
So how does Reiki help to heal astrological issues?
If you simply do your daily morning and evening chakra practice and live with a little bit more surrender every day, then everything starts to heal by itself, and let me tell you how.
Sun represents the ego, energy and oneness, so if you have problems related to the sun, it is your ego that is causing problems, either low self-esteem or overconfidence depending on its position. The entire Reiki practice is centred around channelling the light and surrendering to it. The deeper this surrender is, the more the ego gets bypassed, and the sun, the ego is less hurtful.
The moon represents the mind and emotions. The more you practice Reiki, the more it helps you learn to manage your emotions. In fact, when we learned Reiki, we were taught to practice once a day. But I came across several clients who were completely calm and relaxed even though their lives were extremely hard, and when I asked them questions I realised they were practicing Reiki twice a day. So twice a day Reiki practice heals afflictions of the moon.
Mercury is the intellect, it is our capacity to think clearly. This takes about 3-4 months of Reiki self-healing to expand our clarity of thought and rational thinking.
An afflicted Venus will create out of bound desires and consequently either a whole lot…
