Dear Inner Perfectionist,
You are fired.
With Love,
Me
P.S. – this means I will no longer wait for inspiration to blog, and my blogs will no longer be edited for hours or days (or weeks or months) before posting. 😀
P.P.S. – Your position has been replaced by my Inner Cheerleader.
P.M.S. So eat that, you hypercritical criticizer! 😛
What does your inner cheerleader look like?
Dear readers,
Welcome to the 2012 edition of Spirit Healer Divination & Craft. We are letting go of perfectionism and procrastination as of yesterday, and opportunities are already flooding in!
If your life if full of crap, there’s no room for the seeds of your hopes and dreams to grow. You have to create a space for the universe to fill with the good things you keep asking for.
That’s what I did, and that’s what I’m going to help you to do today.
For this simple healing rite, you are going to need:
- paper and something to write with
- a lighter and something that you can burn paper in without damaging anything (including yourself!)
- A prosperity charm (this could be as simple as a $ on a scrap of paper you plan to put in your wallet, a check made out to yourself in the amount of money you dream of having in your account, a piece of citrine or a green or gold stone, a lucky coin, or any picture or symbol that represents prosperity to you.)
- An optional green candle
- A few uninterrupted minutes of concentration
There are two phases to every simple healing rite: the purge, and the refill.
Phase 1: Get It Out
For the purge, you are going to write a letter to yourself, or to your angels, guides, concept of deity, universe, or whatever you feel most comfortable addressing for help.
Something like this, but way more specific...
List every single one of those things in detail. “Please help me release my fear of not being able to pay my bills, my fear of losing my house, my job, my friends, my life…Please help me release my doubts about my ability to find/keep a job, my doubts about my compentency, my doubts about whether anyone would want to hire me/work with me…Please help me release my bitterness toward money, my judgments of people who have more than me or less than me…please help me to know that money is NOT the root of all evil…please help me to know that I deserve to be able to pay my bills, I deserve to retire in style, I deserve to have a family, a home, a life!”
Be incredibly detailed, specific, and thorough. This is a purge. You are vomiting poison onto paper. Be as vulgar, profane, angry, scared, tearful, pleading, as you need to be in the moment. Write in all caps with slashes and scribbles and cuss words as much as you need to; water the pages with your tears if you need to.
Keep going until you feel empty, hollow. Empty/hollow is good! It means you’ve removed so much poison, the tiny prosperity seeds you are about to plant will have a chance to grow and thrive. Now we can move on to phase 2.
Phase 2: Fill ‘er Up!
Phase 2 begins with the burning of those poisonous pages. If you can’t burn, then tear them into tiny bits and flush them down the toilet. As you destroy them, state your intention to release these feelings and to allow their essence to nourish the earth with harm to none.

Now take your prosperity charm in your hands, get comfortable, close your eyes, and fill yourself with the most powerful love you are capable of feeling. You are performing a muggle version of the Patronus charm. If you’ve never seen or read Harry Potter 3, this means that you are finding your happiest memories and bringing them to life in your heart. You need a memory so pure that when you are thinking it, nothing can bring you down.
My son is my happy thought. Snuggling with him in the morning, his baby kisses, the way he cries, “Mommy!” and then launches himself into my arms when I pick him up for daycare and wrapping his little arms around my neck with a sigh of contentment, his laugh, his cute antics…
My Happiest Thought
Your thought might be a person, or a place, a cherished belonging, a time in your life or a cherished dream. Find it, hold onto it, and let it fill that empty space until you feel happy and bursting with hope, joy, and love. (Or as close as you can get.)
Once you are in that happy space, start fantasizing about yourself as a prosperous person. Keep the fantasy positive and as if you are already there.
If you have a candle (possibly a big green one,) light it now. Then say aloud, on paper, or in your mind that you are ready for this. Say that you are open to prosperity, that you deserve prosperity, that you deserve and are ready to live your dream. Ask your helpers to help you plant and nourish these dreams, to help them grow, thrive, and help you harvest them when the time comes. Ask them to give you signs to show you the way, to help you meet the earth angels/people who can help you get there, and to help you hear opportunity’s knocks.
Thank your helpers for all your blessings, every good thing in your life, and keep that prosperity charm that you’ve been holding all this time in a special place, perhaps your wallet or purse, an altar or shrine if you have one, next to your computer, or any place that makes sense to you. Light your candle every day for a few minutes, bringing back that happy fantasy of prosperity, until there is no wax left (it’s okay to blow it out or snuff it then re-light it as many times as you like.)
There are many ways to attract money into your life. Money is abundant and attainable. Money is the easiest thing to manifest.
Change your beliefs, change your life. ❤
