Well, we have arrived back safe and sound from our holiday in Vietnam – albeit in shock with the cold because it was so hot and humid over there but oh what an amazing place! We found the people to be so friendly and helpful, I will say that we did a guided tour because we only had a week to spare, but we saw so much, first flying to Han Oi for a few days and seeing Ho Chi Minh’s mausoleum – which I do have to say I didn’t like the energies in the place at all.  But the respect that the people have for him is amazing.  We then flew to Hoi An which we fell in love with – a great little town and got to see some beautiful marble work and art and also Halong Bay we were there for a few days and then flying again to Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) where we went to the Mekong Delta, which is lovely and also the Chu Chi tunnels that were used during the Vietnam war, I do have to say that I didn’t cope at all with the tunnels and ended up bursting into tears and leaving them early.  Just too much death and destruction there for me to cope with.  I did face a huge fear and had a large python draped around my neck and even have the photo to prove it!!

When you go to a place that doesn’t have much in the way of modern conveniences and see how happy the people seem to be – they are very focussed on food and family and just enjoy being together not about how much they can earn and what modern cons they can buy, they live in simple homes and just seem content with life, it makes you reassess your own life and what you’re doing.

We will go back!

The Westpac Rescue helicopter service fundraiser was on again on Sunday, 26^th May.  It was a full house and it was lovely to see a couple of gentlemen enjoying the high tea at Magenta Shores Country Club and I do believe that everyone had a wonderful time, I don’t have enough time to read for everyone but do my best with the $5 for 5 minutes in between speeches and presentations etc.  It’s all in good fun and for me I do feel it is a good cause.

Did any of you celebrate Samhain (Halloween) on 30 April?  I didn’t seem to get the time this year to do a special celebration but will definitely have to make more of an effort next year.

YULE

Once again as the Wheel of The Year turns, we are coming into the time of year when we celebrate what is traditionally known as Yule, this year it is celebrated on the 21^st June.

It is a festival to celebrate the re-birth of the sun and it is during the winter solstice which is the shortest day of the year (so why do we celebrate Christmas in summer, here in the southern hemisphere??)  This is a time to turn your face towards the sun and welcome its energy into your body.  Let go of negative thoughts and re-energise yourself and start looking forward to longer and warmer days.  It is also a time when we look at our shadow side that part of yourself that you might wish to accept more or maybe improve and think about ways to do this.

So gather the family together and drink apple cider and hearty stews and vegies or whatever you want to do and realise that the shortest day is here and the days are going to start getting longer and warmer.

It’s Never too late to…..

Start a new career – a career isn’t your life, it’s not you, it’s your job.  Don’t forget that you can expand your horizons and change direction anytime you want.  You need to remain positive.  If need be it could be a new work challenge or a whole new career, something that inspires you.  Explore the options, chase it with passion and who knows it may well become your new career.

Message from: Isis an Egyptian Goddess

If you feel yourself stuck in a situation and you feel paralysed when it comes to moving forward, it could be that your roots are so strong and deep that you have anchored yourself in past memories from long ago times or as new as your childhood.  Sometimes, though not always you need to bring your attention to this realisation so that you may unearth these past memories.  Sometimes they are buried so deep to shield yourself from pain or embarrassment and so you won’t remember those awkward moments when life tested you to the maxiumum.  Reveal those lessons to yourself and move forward with the confidence that you have wisdom behind you.

You can call upon Isis to help you uncover any memories that you are wanting to let go of.

Astrology for April – by Michelle Oberdorf

This monthly forecast is based on your Sun sign, if you know your Moon and Rising (Ascendant) signs please read them as well for further insight.

June has a lot of nice aspects, including Jupiter’s entry into Cancer for 12 months on the 26th, heralding a new cycle of growth in the area of your chart it is moving through. Cancer is the sign of Jupiter’s Exaltation (the second best sign a planet can express its energies through. The best place it can express is through the sign it rules, in Jupiter’s case, Sagittarius). Read on and enjoy!

Rose Quartz:  Removing Vagrant Thought Forms by Trudie Ann Moore

“We are the Rose Quartz and we are known throughout your world as the Stones of love. We encourage love and we promote qualities of self love. We act as powerful stimulators to your heart charkas as we bring our warm, gentle, loving rays to all whom we encounter. We manifest ourselves largely in matrix forms. Occasionally we manifest in crystalline structure. When we do, we form tiny points of intense energies which are capable of spreading our loving rays not only deep into the hearts and bodies of Humans, but largely throughout your world.

We are virtually unknown for our ability to heal vagrant thought forms. It is like a peaceful secret that never got out. Vagrant thought forms are like spikes of incoherence amidst your coherent thought. They can paralyze natural intent by creating incoherent patterns within your brain. Within our large matrix pieces of Rose Quartz, we have the ability to absorb these vagrant thought forms from the Human body. Apply us to the skin while consciously intending on our love and simply allow us to rest. When the intent is for us to work in this way, we are able draw these thought forms into ourselves by leading them away in our own loving fashion. In doing this we promote, as we always do, self love for Humans.

We can also be quite helpful to those in your world who are fearful of themselves, the changes in your world, and of life in general. Those whose hearts are broken may take solice within our love.

More specifically, we are helpful with liver disorders such as cirrhosis. Some Humans suffer from mental disorders which take the form of self injury or mutilation. Eating or drinking disorders are largely caused by self hatred and we work very well to dissolve these thought forms. We have profound implications in the healing process of bulemia and anorexia nervosa, particularly we who exhibit deeply intense shades of pink or peach hues. The peach members of our clan combine wonderful pink rays with the ray of gold. And so you see that this brings the gold energies of confidence, healing, and vitality into our loving ray. Those who need love and self assurance work very well with us.

We are honoured to be of use to humans and we honour those who would use us. We offer our thanks to you!

Trudie is a shamanic healer with over 20 years experience, specialising in soul retrieval, and she also runs workshops on crystal healing. For more about her services visit: www.soulsurgery.net.au

KICK START YOUR LIFE – take the steps to realise your true potential workshop on Saturday, 10TH August in my rooms in Newcastle

Time: 9.30am – 5.00pm

Cost: $145.00 (to be prepaid via my website)

Included: Course notes, dream diary, morning tea/coffee, crystal, candle

I’m in the planning to head to Tamworth for a few days to hold a workshop and do readings – hopefully, this will be organised by the next newsletter.

Services that I offer:

PSYCHIC PARTIES – I do party groups where everyone has as 15 minute reading – this is lots of fun for baby showers, birthdays, hens nights etc and it’s just $20 per reading.  These readings aren’t burnt to disc because there are usually too many people and it just takes up too much time, but I am able to take notes or the person having the reading can take them if they wish.  If you live within an hour of Newcastle CBD there is a minimum of 10 people for a party like this.

FUNDRAISING – I’ve also done a few fundraisers, again which I am happy to do to help a good cause – I usually give a percentage of my takings for the day to help raise funds.

GROUP OF FRIENDS – If you don’t want to go the whole hog with a psychic party but there are four or so friends that would like half hour readings, I will visit you in your home – as long as it’s within a certain radius of Newcastle!  As long as I have a private spot to sit and water to drink, I’m happy!!!  If you live further than an hour from Newcastle CBD I would require a minimum 6 ½ hour readings and yes, I will drive to Sydney!  I would say that my limit would be a maximum of about 2 hours because I would just be too tired upon arriving to do the readings!

Types of readings:

I offer a few different ways to have a reading:-

1.            Face to face – where you come into my room here at Newcastle, this can be for an hour or ½ an hour and your reading is recorded and emailed to you at no extra charge.

2.            Telephone – this is a ½ hour reading and for those that live in Australia and is recorded and emailed to you.

3.            SKYPE – ½ hour reading for those anywhere in the world!

4.            Emailed reading – ½ hour and again for those that find it difficult to come in for a reading or line a time up for a phone reading or SKYPE.

All readings are just as effective as the other, a face to face reading is no different from a phone reading, I just offer all of the above for your convenience.

Blessed be.

Love and Light Katrina
