My Celtic Goddess Journey Unveiled

A few days before I left the States for my goddess journey to Ireland, I had an important download from my ancestors. I was supposed to listen to a recorded call from my Year of Miracles program that dealt specifically with ancestral clearing and forgiveness. It was a call done by energy worker John Newton, and it was fantastic. He created a specific and powerful forgiveness prayer that encompasses every negative thought, emotion, word, or action and clears it from ourselves and our ancestors. That's my kind of clearing! As I listened to it, I knew that I was supposed to print it, bring it with me on my trip, and use it while I was in Ireland. And so I did. That little piece of paper was more powerful and energy-shifting than I could have possibly imagined.

My first stop in Ireland was at Glendalough in the Wicklow Mountains (above photo) and it was sunny! (It was actually sunny and warm for almost 2 weeks! The famous "heat wave" of Ireland). It is a well-preserved ancient Celtic Christianity site founded by St. Kevin in the 6th Century. It includes one of the best examples of the round tower (with a roof) built by the ancient monks, a church, graveyard, and other buildings from the monastic settlement.

I walked through the museum explaining the history of the settlement and was very saddened to hear that it had been burned, attacked, and pillaged numerous times throughout history, and many records were lost and monks were killed in the process. One of the most ferocious of the attacks came from the Vikings, which I found to be common everywhere I went throughout Ireland. As I read about the Viking attacks, it was like an illuminated light bulb went on over my head. I was getting direct revelation of how my goddess journey was to unfold, and I KNEW what I had to do.

I walked outside to the site, put my hands on the stones of the round tower and "asked" the stones to tell me their stories and show me images from their past. As expected, the energy that I felt and the images I saw were heavy and sad and wanted to be cleared. I pulled out my forgiveness prayer and read it aloud with the intention of clearing all negative feelings and energies resulting in the interactions between the Vikings and monks, and anything else that needed clearing. Amazing!! So THIS is what a Celtic goddess healing journey can look like! This was also the closest thing to 'time traveling' that I'd ever done, and it was thrilling!

After I read the prayer and did the clearing, I put my hands on the stones again and gave thanks to God and all high vibration beings who helped me in the healing. The energy I felt was so much lighter and beautiful, and the magical qualities of this ancient place of faith were able to shine through and overwhelm me to tears.

I sat on the grass and put my hands on the blessed land of Ireland and had an intense few minutes of connection and gratitude as I anticipated the powerful undertakings about to transpire. Ireland and I would be one, and I would be a key player in healing centuries of pain, death, and darkness that this country has suffered under. I was almost speechless. I'm just one individual from a far away place myself, but here I was back in the lands of my ancestry where time stands still, and I was providing this much needed and all-important healing work. I was humbled, excited, and totally blown away. WOW.

I knew that history has seen many others who have been called to Ireland to do similar things, and now I would be joining the ranks of all Celtic pilgrims, saints, and healers, who are all my heroes. But for me, it was also hitting a personal note, since I would be a part of the healing for my very own Irish ancestors. My friends, when you talk about following your bliss, making a difference, leaving a legacy, and becoming one with God, I just can't think of a better way to spend your days than doing what I was about to do! And just like the word featured in the photo above, this would be a powerful journey indeed.

Witnessing the Past, Healing the Present

I usually pay attention when things happen in threes. It's like a message from the Universe or God that I should REALLY pay attention to. A few days ago I had 3 references made to past lives within 24 hours, so I listened. The messages came in the form of an angel card that I picked out of a deck (the love cards version), a download during my meditation, and immediately thereafter hearing a song on the radio about "in another life." It was pretty clear that this was a step on my goddess path that needed a little exploration right now.

I never really thought much about my past lives, or if that was even a real thing. I guess until a couple years ago, I believed they didn't exist, but now I'm so open to any and all possibilities, it seems like kind of a cool thing to discover more about. My main question has been "What's the purpose of knowing anything about a past life? How will that help me in my current life?"

If I had to guess where a past life of mine was lived, I would definitely say Germany because I've always felt an uncanny and infinitely deep connection to that land and people. I also would guess it was sometime in the middle ages and that one of my current friends was with me back then. But I've never had any of this confirmed. I would like to find out, however!

What I did do was a little online research, where I found a YouTube video of an actual past life regression session being done on someone. I decided to try it out on myself! I listened to the words being spoken in the video setting the scene, getting me into a meditative space, and saw myself boarding the train that would eventually take me to another time.

Once the train went through a tunnel, I found myself emerging into my past life, or at least one of them. Through a series of questions that the man in the video was asking like "What clothes are you wearing?" "What is your name?" "What year is it?" etc, I was able to ascertain that I was a peasant in England in 1580. (I have learned to just trust the first thing that comes into my head as information and just go with it).

Among other things, I saw 2 very important events- the birth and immediate loss of my first child (a boy), and a severe illness (years later) that afflicted my devoted husband, of which I nursed him through, but which left him forever crippled. In both instances I saw myself using herbs and natural remedies to try and help the situation, but I still felt powerless against God's apparent will that he should take my son and cripple my husband. This helped me understand why today, even though I love and use herbs, sometimes I really question why they don't work as well or as fast as I'd like. Sometimes I truly do have a love/hate relationship with them, and it confuses me. I believe this past life experience helped me gain more insight into this confusing relationship with herbs I have sometimes. In addition, it helped me understand why I tend to worry and overreact when someone I love gets sick, and why I feel a sometimes overbearing urgency to take care of them until they get better.

Another current issue I'm dealing with is the huge fears surrounding pregnancy, childbirth and raising of healthy children naturally, although I have made great progress in this area the past couple years. But often, it seems like such an impossible feat to actually have a totally safe and natural home birth, (which is what I want), and at times it feels like no one has done it successfully! I have so much emotional charge around this, and I have had an extreme fear of the problems and complications that arise during childbirth, it almost felt like a phobia. Again, witnessing this experience in my past life has helped me understand why this fear is very real and deep-seated.

So now that I had identified a couple of issues that needed resolving, I set to work on clearing them with one of my tools I like to call "re-creating". I visualized those same events but pictured a totally different happy ending that was perfect, in an attempt to in effect rewrite the past so that my energetic field and DNA would hold different memories and energy. This is a form of soul reclamation, which I heard about from a friend, but haven't done in its full glory just yet. (Incidentally, as I was telling my sister about this past life regression and the re-creating I did, I noticed that a huge grasshopper hopped right onto our porch. I looked up grasshopper totems, and one of its symbols is 'the birth of a son'. Could my re-creation have already worked?!)

I still need to discover how to properly and completely clear these negative experiences from my past life so that my energy is a fresh and clean slate in my present life. I would love to be free of any emotional baggage I've been carrying around from days long past. Although it was super cool and fun to visit my past life in 1580, I will admit! Time travel has always been my ultimate dream.

Right after the self-guided past life regression session, I did a little more online research and found a different video by Dr. Brian Weiss, MD, who travels around doing these sessions for entire audiences. I want to try his video next! Fortunately he has also written some books on the subject, one of which is pictured above. The other one was right next to it at the library, and I'm excited to delve into them both to see how I can use my past life experiences to gain wisdom and healing in my present.

Tomorrow starts the Virgo new moon, which incidentally is a fantastic time for physical and emotional detox! I'm all about the clearing out of old stuff, even 434 year old stuff! Let's have some fun!

Have you ever done a past life regression, either from a professional, or a self-guided one? How did you clear any trauma that you may have witnessed yourself experiencing?
