Emporiblog - Chiron Retrograde

-
Hello all!! Today's post is about the Chiron Retrograde that started a few days ago. I am new to Retrogrades and don't know much about them so this is a learning experience for me and you!!

Chiron (the wounded healer) is currently in retrograde in Aries ♈ which is poetic as Aries is the God of War in Greek mythology and healing from any trauma is a war in itself. This retrograde will last until December 19th of this year and is the time to start working through any trauma you have to process, if you are ready to do so! It is perfectly ok if you're not yet ready to start your healing, these things take time and you have all the time in the world. 

Chiron is also of Greek mythology. He is the centaur son of the Titan Cronus (who took the form of a horse at the time) and the Nymph Philyra. Unlike other centaurs, Chiron was kind natured despite being abandoned by his mother soon after his birth. Through his father's lineage, he is the half sibling is Zeus. Soon after his abandonment, he was found by the God Apollo who taught him the arts of: music, lyre, archery, medicine and prophecy. Apollo's twin sister, the Goddess Artemis furthered his teachings in archery and hunting. 

Chiron is called the wounded healer because, despite being a master healer, he could not heal himself from a poisoned arrow wound. Due to this, he willingly gave up his immortality (being the son of Titan grants you immortality) causing his half brother Zeus to take pity on him. Once Chiron passed, Zeus placed him among the stars to honour him as a way of honouring him. The Geeks then identified him as the constellation Centaurus.

Healing from trauma has no time limit. Everyone is different, some people take longer to process what has happened to them meaning it takes longer for them to seek help. For some people, help comes in the form of family and friends, for others, seeking medical treatment and for some, religious/spiritual practice is how they cope. If you feel like you are ready to heal, I suggest researching which way is best for you to continue this healing. What works for others may not necessarily work for you so don't worry if it takes time to find the right way for you.

This is a time to also reflect on ancestral trauma. Not all of our ancestors had a chance to heal their trauma so they inadvertently passed it on to future generations in the hopes that one day, the trauma will be healed. Healing ancestral trauma will take a lot of preparation and time so do not undertake this if you are not fully ready.

Below is a list of crystals with healing properties:


- Clear quartz
- Rose quartz
- Jasper
- Obsidian
- Citrine
- Turquoise
- Tiger’s eye
- Amethyst
- Moonstone
- Bloodstone
- Sapphire
- Ruby


If you are having difficulty during this time, please reach out to someone if you are able. At True Souls Emporium we have experienced healers available who can help you during this time, just head to the website and send us a message and we will contact you as soon as possible!!

I hope you have found this information useful, if any of the information listed above is incorrect or you would like to add something, please leave a comment!!

May all of you on your healing journey find peace.



Blessings,

Emporiblog - November Full Moon + Total Lunar Eclipse 2022

-

Hello all!! Don't be confused by the picture, all will be revealed!! This month's Full Moon in Taurus ♉ will be accompanied by a total Lunar Eclipse!! So, with the total lunar eclipse, and a meteor shower to boot, energies are quite fraught this month, and that counts as the energies within you too. This turbulent time is said to activate your inner rebel, that little voice within you that says 'what if we just...' Authority will grate on you, especially if it is misused and power is being abused, and this will prompt you to start flouting the rules. There is lots of incoherent stuff in your mind at the moment, the Moon calls you to surrender that, the eclipse calls you to do so fully and without abandon. Start marching to the sound of your own beat!  We need to shift this out of the way, so that we can align with our purpose. Sitting quietly tonight, letting everything go and embracing what is left will allow you to do this successfully.  You have probably

Hello all! Today's post is kind of a serious one. Looking back through some of our previous posts, I have realised that some of the information that I gave is in fact, incorrect ! This post will hopefully set the record straight. The previous posts will still stand to serve as a reminder to always cross-reference and research thoroughly to avoid the mistakes that I made. Correction 1  ROSEMARY IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR ANY HERB!  Rosemary can only be substituted for herbs that it shares properties with. And, while we're here: - Rose cannot be substituted for any flower. Only the ones it shares properties with - Frankincense and Copal cannot be substituted for any incense/oil/gum resin. Only the ones that they share properties with - Tobacco cannot be substituted for any poisonous herbs. Only the ones that it shares properties with - Clear Quartz cannot be used as a substitute for any Crystal. Only the ones that it shares properties with As far as I know, White candle
