The traumas we experience take a toll on us, but the effects of trauma vary from individual to individual. In our current society, we often use psychological methods to deal with most traumas and feelings of incompleteness. Whether it’s someone who has been in an accident, lost a loved one, been in an abusive relationship, faced memory gaps of a part of their lives or any one of a thousand other things, we often dissociate a part of ourselves, most often as a mechanism of protection. If you’ve ever felt incomplete, it’s because your intuitive self knows that a part of you is missing.
Soul recovery is about journeying into other forms of reality in order to bring back the broken pieces and reintegrate them into our selves. It’s a shamanistic tool, because generally what sets the shaman apart from other healers is the journeying that he/she does. Healing shamanistic journeys have been conducted in most cultures and in all parts of the world from Siberia to South America and from North America to Australia.
Soul recovery is a means of finding and reintegrating those dissociated pieces. There are many other forms of reality in which to find the missing pieces as well as various methods for their recovery. Although someone else finds your parts for you, it doesn’t mean that you have no responsibility. Once the pieces are found, it is up to the person who has suffered the trauma to keep the reintegration process going and ensure those parts stay integrated.
You may wonder how you know if you’ve suffered soul loss and what the steps are for a soul retrieval journey. Some of the signs that may point to soul loss are depression, the inability to ground oneself, feelings of detachment, chronic illness, addictions, inability to let go of certain things in your life, a sense of emptiness, etc.
When you have found a shamanistic facilitator you want to work with, he/she undertakes a journey, based on a specific ceremony, on your behalf to other worlds or dimensions where these pieces are. With the help of a guide, the shaman can bring back a certain number of the pieces. For the next month afterwards, it is up to you to communicate with these pieces, to listen to what they have to say and to help them reintegrate into who you are. After a few months, you may want the shaman to undertake a second journey to see if there are more pieces ready to come back. The more traumatized pieces often do not return on the first journey. It’s as if it’s understood that the reintegration of all the pieces takes time and can require a slow adjustment period, and so the pieces come back in an order from least traumatized to most traumatized.
The purpose of the journey is to find and help heal these fragmented pieces of your soul. The shaman will tell you about the journey, explaining the pieces, the circumstances and what was required. In some instances you will know exactly what he/she’s talking about, and in some instances you will have to think about what the events may represent. They may be clear as glass or they may be couched in allegory.
The recognition of where and how the fragmentation took place can accelerate the reintegration process. You may be in a much different place now from when the piece dissociated, and the integration can be smooth and effortless. Each piece and each person is different. During the reintegration time, you listen and converse with the returned pieces, and continue to accelerate your own healing. You open yourself up more to the various means of communicating which you have with your higher self and get greater insights into your true self and your soul.

SPIRITUAL FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT : Defending Your Life Starring Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep
Yuppie Daniel Miller is killed in a car accident and goes to Judgment City, a waiting room for the afterlife. During the day, he must prove in a courtroom-style process that he successfully overcame his fears (a hard task, given the pitiful life we are shown); at night, he falls in love with Julia, the only other young person in town. Nights are a time of hedonistic pleasure, since you can (for instance) eat all you want without getting fat. Written by Jon Reeves ([email protected])
All of your life is on videotape — or perhaps laser disk — to make it easier on your prosecutor and defense attorney at Judgment City to randomly access a few episodes to show whether you made the most of the life you just completed. If you didn’t make the most of that life, you will be sent back to try again and again until you do get it right. And the court must be taking an advance peek at that life tape. Posh accommodations go to those who look like they will merit moving up to citizen of the universe — like Julia who falls for Daniel, whose quarters have no ambiance at all.

SPIRITUAL FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT : The Ten Commandments Starring Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner and Anne Baxter
To escape the edict of Egypt’s Pharaoh, Rameses I, condemning all first-born Hebrew males, the infant Moses is set adrift on the Nile in a reed basket. Saved by the pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah, he is adopted by her and brought up in the court of her brother, Pharaoh Seti. Moses gains Seti’s favor and the love of the throne princess Nefertiri, as well as the hatred of Seti’s son, Rameses. When his Hebrew heritage is revealed, Moses is cast out of Egypt, and makes his way across the desert where he marries, has a son and is commanded by God to return to Egypt to free the Hebrews from slavery. In Egypt Moses’s fiercest enemy proves to be not Rameses, but someone near to him who can ‘harden his heart’. Written by Ron Kerrigan ([email protected])
Moses leads the slaves from the tyranny of the Egyptian pharaoh and into the desert where he is later given the law of God. Once the pharaoh’s chief architect, Moses receives the attentions of the Queen until he rebels and is cast into exile. Written by Keith Loh ([email protected])

SPIRITUAL FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT : Pay It Forward Starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment
Imagine you’re despairing over a major problem in your life, and someone comes along and solves it for you, relatively unconditionally. All you have to do is “pay it forward”, i.e., do a similarly big favour to three others. Would you do it?
That’s the premise behind Pay it Forward, an overly sentimental film with some provocative ideas. The concept originates when Eugene “be careful with that axe” Simonet (Kevin Spacey) challenges his Seventh grade class to come up with an assignment to change the world. Trevor (Haley Joel Osment) comes up with the pay-it-forward concept and first decides to help a homeless heroin addict get back on his feet, then help Eugene and his mother (Helen Hunt) get together (which really makes for two favours), and then help his friend who’s being pushed around by bullies in school. This “movement” spreads relatively unnoticed until a reporter in Los Angeles who loses his car is handed a brand new Jaguar and tracks down the source of this favour chain
With a stellar cast consisting of Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, and Haley “I see dead people” Osment, the movie works pretty well under Mimi Leder’s direction. The southern California/Nevada cinematography is done well. The dialogue is the weakest aspect of the film and is a bit hackneyed at times. More than the primary plot itself, the various underlying subtexts involving domestic abuse and alcoholism are interesting.
The concept of pay-it-forward is how most of human society works to the extent it does (some of it has even been institutionalised in the form of religion and government). The problem is that the notion is simply not idealistic enough. Performing three big favours just does not cut it. Not only does there need to be a significantly larger amount of favours done through the course of one’s life, but the more important thing is that people don’t do negative or harmful things to others to an equally large degree. Doing three big favours is pointless if you’ve done more harm than any favour can repay. A better (and much more idealistic) concept would be to live life without doing any harm to others (which also would not be adequate, but would be much more effective than a three-favour scheme).
What Pay it Forward really illustrates is that it is harmful to oneself and to others to be apathetic towards other people’s problems. However, to maximise the balance of doing good to others and not doing harm, one also has to choose their battles wisely. This doesn’t mean inaction, as much as realizing that certain solutions simply don’t work. For example, using violence as a solution never works since violence always begets violence (“what’s good for the goose is good for the gander”). On that note, Pay it Forward also throws in a message about school violence.
INSIGHT INTO ASTROLOGY
This talk provides the opportunity to enhance understanding of the ancient art of Astrology that can create a bridge from the deepest parts of ourselves, to the whole universe around us.

Whether or not you believe this, your heart and mind will be opened to fresh possibilities, and a new respect may be obtained for cosmic influences that are affecting your life. Come and be surprised by what you can discover!
But do we ever really move on if all we do is obtain a divorce. We shared our life, our hopes and dreams and even our soul with our partner.
A physical divorce just isn’t enough.
Why not incorporate a ritual designed to sever the spiritual ties that we no longer want to bind.
While you may have broken free legally, you may still be spiritually connected to your former partner. Our customized divorce ritual is designed to give you a spiritual break to cleanse you and free you to move on.
