In Western Astrology, there is often no remedy offered for difficult or challenging planets and energies in the chart, a tradition that in Eastern Astrology is so very important. The few things we can do are –

  • Becoming aware of our patterns by doing the chart, make their hold on us less
  • Knowing our potential pitfalls, we can avoid them by making new choices
  • We learn to accept ourselves by knowing ourselves and working with our strengths

But what else can we do, what tangible practices can we put in place?

In my practice, I aim to integrate the western and eastern methods to help give the client some relief, hope and power to take action and correct the imbalances found in their chart.

Working with certain healers has assisted greatly in developing excellent remedies – crystal remedies being a wonderful source of healing, as the vibrations in the stones treat the more difficult effects of a particular sign. In addition, crystals can be worn on the body to strengthen the planetary energies, and also certain colours, as well as Mantras.

Working with another healer, we have developed Planetary Remedies, which is essentially homeopathic remedies that have had the light and energies of the planets channeled into the concoction, which, when imbued, let the “light” of that planet flood the body and soul and assist the client.

These wonderful remedies are for sale as an option to the client, especially upon having their chart read :
