Spiritual Healing Requests
===============================================
Spirit healings result from law-governed forces being put into operation following the sending forth of a thought directive (prayer). Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms.
Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs.
Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know.
To request that a name or situation be placed on this healing list, please send a note to [email protected]
Prayer for Spiritual Healing
I ask the Great Unseen Healing Force
To remove all obstructions 
From my mind and body 
And to restore me to perfect health.
I ask this in all sincerity and honesty
And I will do my part.
I ask this Great Unseen Healing Force
To help both present and absent ones
Who are in need of help
And to restore them to perfect health.
I put my trust and love in the power of God.

Mercury turns direct
'as the runway lights up'
"This week, May 29th through June 4th, we begin on Sunday, with Mars catching up to Jupiter, igniting the Aries energy to shift us into our new directions.  Mars has been scooping up the innovative concepts that will begin to blaze our new path, and Jupiter expands our journey.  As the runway lights up, we will begin to see our way forward, which will become more visible as June 3rd shifts Mercury to turn direct in motion. 
On Monday, the New Moon signals our time to recognize our new runway.  Sun and Moon at 9 Gemini brings us the information needed to know our direction and journey with Mercury beginning to hover at 26 Taurus.  The New Moon brings energies together to see our right timing and we can begin to focus on this week as clarity of information comes into focus.
On Wednesday, June emerges as the universal THREE month, bringing in a strong creative energy that opens the spiral of awareness to see in all directions.  Our journey is calling to us and we can see the landscape emerge as the runway lights bring a soft glow.  Early Friday, Mercury turns direct as the runway light glow a bit brighter, signaling to us that it is time to recognize the journey that is calling us.
On Saturday, Saturn turns retrograde, to go back over many situations to bring accountability into the picture.  Saturn in Aquarius emphasizes fairness, independence, respect, and right for all decisions.  Continuing to pave our way with efforts will be the theme during Saturn’s retrograde focus."
