“Dear Helena, I want to thank you for such an inspiring reading earlier today. You do not waste time and have a manner and ease about you that makes the client feel at ease as well. You were accurate, thorough and communicated in a down to earth style that made it easy for me to make connections.”                    “Dear Helena, I wanted to say thank you again.  I felt you had a deep understanding of my fears this morning when you analyzed my son and my charts.  You really are a compassionate, insightful and evolved astrologer and I feel fortunate to have stumbled upon your existence.  My ‘obsessive’ mind chatter has relaxed and I feel peaceful and trusting again of God’s plan for my life and my son’s role in it.  I very much appreciate your wisdom and expertise.”                    "Dear Helena- Magi Astrology, and you, as the Magi Astrologer in particular, have been more illuminating than any other astrological  system..."                   "Dear Helena, God brought you into my life... Thank you for your help, for your caring, and the incredible information of Magi Astrology..."                   "Dear Helena, I want to thank you for the hope you have given me. I really feel like I learned so much more about myself than I have in all the years of therapy. It was also so comforting to find out that this dark cloud that has been hanging over me will pass. Thank you so much and God Bless you."                   "Hi Helena, Just wanted you to know that I am still thrilled with your reading, it helped me so much! Thanks again -- I think you're a wonderful astrologer......"                   "Dear Helena, You have been a beacon of bright light in my life through the dark night of the Soul. Thank you for your help and for your caring."                   "Dear Helena, I did meet someone new in the dates you gave me-- Things seem to be developing nicely with this wonderful new fella. You gave me the confidence to meet a really nice guy...."                   "Dear Helena, I'm still working on the great advice you gave me! During the reading, you gave me a date to record music for the first time. Through a series of "coincidences" on that date, my recording project has turned from a personal recording for a friend into a full-length CD produced by a record label! Thank you!"                   "Dear Helena, It blows me away the insights you have given me.... I'm in shock about how accurate you are explaining relationships...

I don't think you've said one wrong thing!"                    "Dear Helena, God brought you into my life... I could not have gotten through this last year without your help, compassion and kindness!"                   "At first I was skeptical about working with Helena (at my client's request).

Attorney                   "Hi Helena,…..with common sense and logic, you were able to cut through the fog and help me comprehend what's going on. I can't tell you how much you helped me!"                    "Dear Helena, Thank you again for caring. God bless you and your work."                   "Dear Helena, Its funny, I feel after listening to what you had to say about my past relationships, that you just nailed them, even to the point of having me re-evaluate my rosy view of a few things, to realize that what you said was more accurate than what I had been thinking...."                   "Hi Helena, You are very gifted at what you do and in the way in which you deliver it. You truly do hit the nail on the head with me. Again, thank you."                    "Helena evaluated all of our key employees and found one potential problem.

Having Helena on the team is just an extra ace in the hole......"                     "Hi Helena, I wanted to say thank you again, you have no idea how happy I am today. You have just reconfirmed all my true feelings, which leaves me free to go on to something new .."                    "Dear Helena, Your insight is very enlightening. You are a special part of my prayers..."                     "When my successful company began to falter, Helena made suggestions which turned everything around."                   "Dear Helena, Thank you again and again.. and again for walking through this with me.  I tell you that you have a friend for life (and beyond)..."                   "Dear Helena, Thank you again for your time and wisdom. I have a lot to think about ... you covered a lot of ground for me. But as my mind starts to get carried away, I hear things you said that bring me back to reality ...ultimately to a better place for me ..."

 

Resources for Crisis

                                If you are in an urgent crisis:

                                Call 9-1-1
                                Call your local Mental Health Hotline
                                Call appropriate medical or legal professionals

  Almost everyone finds themselves in crisis at some point in their life. Crises can be urgent or they can unfold over a period of time.

It is crucial to make sure to get the help you need during crisis. The following are suggestions which may help.
 
First- go into action for yourself and find the right professionals if needed. You may need a doctor, alternative medical practitioner, therapist, attorney, financial or tax advisor. If you are in serious trouble, you are likely having bad transits, so there is something to be said for using a professional you already know if possible- this avoids natalizing a new professional relationship during negative stars. Get referrals to find the best practitioners. If the first person you consult doesn't feel right, seek out someone else. If in doubt along the way, get a second opinion.

¬

Reaching out for extra support is a central strategy during crisis times- even if you are a strong person and usually don't need outside help. Some ideas:

Call all your friends, even those you haven't seen for a while. You may be surprised who will show up for you.

Find a support group and go often!
Look for:
     Groups oriented toward your specific crisis
     General support groups
     Appropriate 12-step groups- CODA can be a good general group
If the first group you try doesn't resonate for you, try another and another until you find a group where you feel at home. Even if you hate the whole idea of a group- force yourself to find a good one- you'll be amazed how much it helps, even if you don't say a word.

Find a great therapist. This too can take several tries. A referral from someone you trust is a great place to start.

Find a great bodyworker and get therapeutic massages.

¬

It is always good to keep your own list of healthy things that you can do for yourself when you need nurturing.  You can refer to this list when you are feeling bad and don't know what to do to feel better. Some basic ideas are:

Take a hot shower or bath
Go for a walk or hike
Read a good book
Make yourself a nice meal or a cup of tea
Call a friend or get together
Give or get a hug
Take a nap
Meditate

¬

Deepen your personal spirituality. A spiritual base can give you the internal resources you need to weather any storm. If you have a satisfying spiritual practice, give your practice extra time and reach within it for some new dimension. If you aren't clear what type of spirituality is comfortable to you, try doing some searching with an open mind. Follow your hunches. Remember that you don't have to please anyone else.

You may find your spiritual home within a "traditional" religion, or elsewhere. Those that feel that they have exhausted traditional sources may find answers in

Eastern thought, philosophy, spiritual practice
Feminine "Goddess" spiritual traditions
Nature-based spiritual practices
Native American spiritual traditions
Inspirational literature of almost any kind

Remember that as you grow and evolve, so will your spiritual beliefs and practice. One's sense of spiritual connection, like many things, can be somewhat cyclical. Do what you need to do to open your heart and become One with All That Is.

¬

Pray and Meditate

It has been said that prayer is talking to God, and meditation is listening to God. Take time to talk, and to listen.

I believe that the power of prayer cannot be underestimated. It is VERY IMPORTANT that your prayers, and the prayers of anyone praying for you, hold the vision and essence of your crisis RESOLVED, and not the negativity of the current crisis itself.  Avoid the emotions of sadness, pity, etc. and clearly hold the desired SOLUTION in consciousness.

When you pray, you might want to try this format. Remember the acronym I-N-S-I-G-H-T-S

Invocation- call upon the presence of God/Goddess/All That Is, feel the rush of Divine energy, feel Oneness with the Infinite

Number- count your blessings one by one

Surrender- surrendering yourself, your thoughts, feelings, body, spirit, relationships, situations, and problems to the Infinite- "Thy will be done"

Intentions- things, situations that I want and intend for myself- "Ask and ye shall receive"

Gifts- wishes and prayers for others

Healing- asking for assistance in the healing and the forgiveness of people and situations

Thanks- thanking the Creator for his/her help and attention

Send it out- release your prayer into the Universe, knowing that as it is released, it is accomplished- "And so it is"

Meditation is a process of becoming still and quiet, without interruption, (sitting in the lotus position seems to help), and allowing your thoughts to drift by, one after another. Allow them to pass by, one by one like the cars of a train, without judging or trying to control them. Just observe your thoughts, while remaining neutral. Focus on your rhythmic breath, feeling the breath passing in and out past the tips of your nostrils. Let your body relax, and your thoughts become quiet. In the silent spaces you create, and with patient practice, the small and quiet voice of God can be heard.

¬

Make an affirmation tape and add appropriate statements for both your current situation and for general good- see examples for this below.  Always use PRESENT TENSE & POSITIVE PHRASING (i.e. "I am well," INSTEAD OF "I'm not sick.") Listen to your tape at least twice a day.

I trust God/the Universe.
I am well/happy/free/at peace, etc.
I deserve to be well/happy/free/at peace, etc.
I deserve to be nourished by myself and others.
I deserve only good things in my life. (you may want to list these specifically)
I am worthy just because I exist.

¬

Get in touch with your needs. Being as specific as possible, make a list of your current needs such as:

Survival needs (food, shelter, etc.)
Financial needs (budgeting, income, retirement planning, etc.)
Emotional needs (friendship, affection, intimacy, support, etc.)
Physical needs (exercise, fresh air, sexual release, medical attention, etc.)
Intellectual needs (mental stimulation, purposefulness, etc.)
Spiritual needs (spiritual practice, meditation time, etc.)

Notice how well these needs are being met, and look at ways you might meet them better or enlist more help to get them met.

¬

Find a way to make a contribution. No matter how horrible, empty, or stressed-out you feel, an outward focus can be amazingly uplifting.

Donate time and energy to those less fortunate than yourself. Advance the cause of your specific issue.  Help a friend. Listen to someone else's problems. Find a purpose that is larger than yourself.

¬

I pray that you and your loved ones experience vital health and well-being,
love and joy, abundance, safety, and deep connection with God.
May you and yours be blessed and surrounded by White Light now and forever.

It's vitally important
to make every effort
to keep your crisis- coping mechanisms healthy.

Some things that we may become dependent
upon during a crisis can later become serious problems in their own right.

Don't compound your problems. Never solve a short-term problem by creating a long-term problem!

  The Bach
Flower Essence Blend
"Rescue Remedy" can instantly help with
panic, shock, and other emotional traumas. 

Take a couple of drops under the tongue or sipped in water as often as needed.

It is available at most heath-food stores or online.  More info.

Be patient. (Yes, this can seem impossible.) Sometimes we can't resolve a crisis until the astrological cycles that set the stage for crisis have passed. During these times, our normal luck is not with us, so "desperate"  measures or irresponsible actions often create more problems than they solve. Again- don't do anything which may compound your problems.

If there is no immediate resolution, the best course is often to SURRENDER your situation to God. In surrender as with many things, you may need to keep surrendering many times before it "clicks" and you feel the resulting calm. Surrender may not solve your crisis, but often you can achieve the peace of mind that can allow you to continue on. Then, when challenging astrological cycles give way to positive ones, your situation will often resolve itself.
