Last month I shared my latest healing journey.  It has been an enlightening lesson and I am on the road of recovery and getting back into alignment.
I realized that there were a number of factors that caused my hair to fall out and I was committed to heal it and allow myself to get better and overcome this lesson as well.  Energetically I recognized that I was undergoing a deep transformation.  I have had to make so many decisions.  I have had to make choices that are right for ME.  I had to put myself first. I know that I am undergoing changes and I am taking chances to ensure that I feel will enhance my life experience. I had to stand in my power and a great friend Ray McPhee taught me and 12 friends self defence.  We held the class in my garage.  
So not only did my physical body take a hit, my aura or spiritual body was affected.
The aura is our energy field is in constant contact with others.  After all we are all connected.  Some are great connections and some not so much!!
I had a very nasty dark spiritual attack and my aura collapsed.  Thank God that I knew what happened and was able to help myself. When this happens you may feel like I did.  Empty, sad, mad, rage and wanting to hibernate. 
So I knew that I was sick and not only did my physical body need to stop the meds that I had been on for fifty three days, I had to up my self care.
This is how I did it.

1. Prayer and connect to my Divine team
2. meditation to go within to the wise woman within me
3. grounding with trees, grass and being in nature
4. salt baths with Himalayan salt blends and going to the salt room/cave
5. sound bowls
6. connecting to the light of candles and sunlight
7. breathing in deeply and mindfully
8. drinking lots of water to allow my body to excrete toxins
9. I used an Archangel Raphael aura cleansing spray 
10. essential oils
11. smudge myself daily with palo santo
12. I wore crystals and used selenite wand to clear myself
13. I pulled cards and did affirmations each day.
14. forgiveness of self and others ( the Dr. actually apologized to me for giving me those meds!)
15. I helped others.  Like we say in the angel world; When you get nervous focus on service.
16. I moved my body in ways that felt good for me- very, very gently as my body was in so much pain.
17. I took time in the silence
18. I took lots of supplements and ate well.

There are many ways to take care of you. You know it is working because of how you feel.  You will begin to feel better, lighter, happier and hope filled.   As you can see by the photo above, my hair is starting to come back. I am so happy!!  I have never been so relieved to see those sparkles of gray and white like I am now!!!
If I can be of service please let me know.  The products I purchased were lovingly suggested by my Goddess sister Eugenia at Joy and Vitality Centre.
Much love to all of you as you journey through your lessons.

​

When July was ending I was presented a huge lesson.  In June, my doctors told me that my blood sugars were 7.7. Normal is 5-7.  So they asked me to try new meds.  I read the information booklet and was immediately alarmed.  However, I allowed the 'professionals' opinion to override my intuition. So on June 24th I started the new medication.  Within a day or two, my blood felt weird and I had a metal taste in my mouth.  I knew something wasn't right AND I was still willing to give it a go.  I am a very compliant patient.  I am also very knowledgable and intelligent.  On July 27 I went to get my hair cut and coloured and while the hairstylist was colouring my hair she didn't mention anything.  Then after she washed my hair she said " Did you know you had a bald spot?"  I said NO!!!  There was no indication of it before.  I went from elation to depression in a second flat.  I left the salon deflated.  Over the entire month of August I have been losing hair each day.  
I am having a huge post trauma response.  I have been brought to my knees in anger, rage, sadness, hopelessness and extreme communion with the Divine in asking God what is my lesson I am to learn?  As a human I am so mad.  The amount of anger that I have had is palpable.  Enough that I cancelled a holiday to visit my parents in BC.  I take responsibility for my energy and believe me when I say, I am better containing it right now.
I have been totally body bald after chemo.  To say I am surprised at my response is an understatement.  I think that this episode is allowing me to expel all the rage, anger, sadness, pain and shame that I still have in my body.  I have allowed people my entire life to have power over me.  I haven't trusted my own intuition deeply.  I believe this is the lesson.
So this weekend, rather than visiting my parents, I followed my guidance and went to the creek in Okotoks to clear and clean my energy.  It felt so good to feel that cold water around my ankles.  I just imagined that my Divine team of God, angels, guides, goddesses and ancestors were helping me. As we walked the path in the park to the stream, we had a cricket that followed me.  We saw an eagle, a hawk, ducks and felt the wind in our faces.  The warmth of the sun filled me up and it felt good.  Sacred.  
My husband came with me.  He has been enjoying all the nature that has been guiding me and in turn healing him too.
Saturday, Lake Louise beckoned me.  We took the two hour trip and unfortunately the site was over full and we were turned away.  I was devastated.  However, energetically I tapped in to the temple of Archangel Michael and Faith that covers the area and felt the healing that was happening.  The sun was beaming and the angels were doing their work on me.  I filled up!
Sunday my hubby and I went to a beautiful patio and shared some of my favourite foods.... fries and gravy, spring rolls and a beautiful beet and goat cheese salad. 
Today I am ready to enter september.  I am tired of focussing on losing my hair and instead I am going to do my best to focus on healing and keeping the hair on my head.  I had thought that I was going to shave my head. 
My husband tried to calm me by saying " you should be happy that you don't have cancer this time!"  It wasn't helpful and instead angered me more. 
I know that we all have lessons.  As a spiritual teacher, I know that we all have lessons to learn.  The thing was that I had felt so happy in June.  I was attracting clients, creating classes, teaching and learning!!  I was buying new dresses and felt good!  I had released some weight and I felt at the top of my game so to speak.
Then bam!!!  I know hair may seem like a shallow thing to grieve, however it is so much more than that to me.
As an overweight person my whole life, my hair and my smile are superpowers.  I always had beautiful hair.  When I lost it because of the cancer I had in 2011-12, I didn't grieve it.  I smiled as my stylist shaved my head and I was prepared for it.  To say this hit me violently isn't adequate.  There are no words to explain the despair I felt.  I have gone through a dark night of the soul this month.  I know that that also means a deep transformation.  I wasn't ready.  Are we ever?
I am digging very deep to heal.  I have been cocooning my SELF.  I have only been doing facebook lives that I am committed to and I am taking time to listen to my own intuition.  Two weeks ago I stopped the new meds and I demanded that my doctor rerun some lab tests.  To my surprise I am deficient in magnesium.   So I went to Joy and Vitality Centre ( where I have gone this whole month) and got magnesium.  Eugenia, the owner and my nutritionist, supplied me with Holy Ganga water, biotin, powerful women's vitamins, magnesium salts and magnesium supplements.  I feel back in power over my life.  I feel God talking to me and I can feel that my body is ridding itself of the impurities that the new medication had left behind.

The lesson here is to always always listen to your intuition.  It is the voice of the Holy Spirit and it is always guiding you the RIGHT way.  I took a detour in August and I hated it.  I cried & cried and cried some days so much that my Maxie ( my sweet sweet fur baby chihuahua) would jump on me and look deeply in my eyes to show me love that only He could show me.  I know it was God through Max. Dog is God backwards.  That is no accident.
I know that I am strong, even when I feel weak. 
Fifty three days I took that new medication.  Fifty three days was enough to put my body in an immune response.
I know that I have been dealing with a lot of interpersonal stress.  Family, neighbours and friends that have been teachers for me.  They have been showing up to demand that I stand in my power and speak my truth.  These people have taught me to LET GO and move on.  I always wondered why my mentor said that her students are not her friends.  Do we truly really have FRIENDS?  or are they just people we know?
From May to now, a large number of people have shown me that I have been allowing too much of their energy to affect me.  Each day I am taking my power back.  I am releasing people who I thought were my friends and I am reexamining where to spend my precious time.  I am discerning the teachers for me and the type of teacher and human I wish to be in this world. 
The key word here is HUMAN.  My whole life I have been expected to take the high road.  I kept quiet.  I did my best to keep the peace.  And it was at my expense.  I am not laying any blame here on anyone but me.  And now that I know better, I AM PROMISING MY SELF TO DO BETTER FOR ME!!
This may mean that I need to make more BIG decisions and I know that I am strong enough to handle whatever lessons God has for me.  The healing is the magic.  One day soon I will teach from this experience.
This experience taught me to LET GO of shitty people, places and things.  It has demanded that I find JOY in each day.  It has taught me HEALTH is WEALTH and is the foundation of a wonderful life.  My body has been screaming this month.  I did this to my dear body.  She spoke to me and told me NOT to take the new meds and I allowed the Dr and the pharmacists voices to be louder than my own!! NOT ONE MORE TIME.
I know that my hair will grow.  I am allowing it to heal.  I am treating myself well.  I am voicing what I want and I am going to get it.
I hope that this sheds some light on what I have been going through this month.
I got this.  I know I do!  God is so good.  He never leaves us even when it feels that way and as though we are on the path alone.  Listen in and take time to heal.  Do whatever it takes. For me it is taking:

1. supplements and nutrition
2. mindfulness and meditation
3. prayers, God, angels, Divine team
4. listen to my body
5. clearing and cleaning my energy
6. creating boundaries
7. standing in my power
8. speaking my truth
9. taking time for extreme self love
10. moving my body in nature and sunshine

I wish all of you a blessed and beautiful September.
I want to leave you with a  prayer.

September is going to be a great month for you!
You will experience wins, healing, blessings and spiritual insight.
I declare that nothing in your life will stay the same.
You will receive good things.
In Jesus name, AMEN. 
Love Giuliana 

What is a Priestess you ask?  Well this is what it means to me.
Webster's definition is: 1. A priestess is a woman who officiates in sacred rites. 2. a woman regarded as a leader ( as of a movement)  
This is true and she is so much MORE.  She is able to position herself between the visible and invisible worlds between the two dimensions.  She works with subtle energies and is an emissary of the Divine Feminine represented here on earth.

She serves the spiritual needs of her community and in these times is very needed. A priestess is a woman who helps others connect to the divine so that  they can heal and actualize their soul's unique path. 
The priestess is a collective archetype that is in the collective consciousness as a constellation of characteristics of the divine feminine expression through us.  We must learn to walk as her.  We must train ourselves to embody her and the sisterhood.
She is just a girl with a big dream who is living in purpose, is a leader with class and recognizes she has a Goddess deep within her.
The history of the priestess is one of great trauma.  In fact, I have learned that a lot of us are having to heal our witch wounds.  The witch wound is the deep seated fear of being terrorized, betrayed and forced to be subservient.  I learned that last month from Desiree Dunbar.  She is a Modern day priestess as well. You may want to ask which of these witch wounds play out in your life.  Is it terror?  betrayal? or subservience?  I had to work through all of them by healing it the feminine way so that I could feel safe in my body, feel free, powerful, successful and happy.

In 2016, I took two courses with Velva Dawn Silver.  She is the head of the Goddess Healing Matrix System- Higher Priestess Practitioner Course- trademarked.  I have level 2 designation.  What that course did for me is that it opened the door to the Goddess world.  Prior to that I had learned to heal my mother martyr archetype and become a more empowered woman.  I now walk in way more woman energy and I am healing my inner little girl.

My spiritual journey began after the stage three cancer diagnosis in 2011.  I was deeply wounded, sick and in need of deep transformation.  I had heard the whispers of migraines and diabetes and ignored them.  I guess you could say I had so much deep work to do that God sent cancer to awaken me!  Through the darkness of such a serious illness, I discovered my light.  God brought me to my knees and while I was down there I prayed for help.  The help came in various teachers and through them I discovered my magic!  He has helped me through the feminine part of Him.  The Divine Feminine has helped me RISE and HEAL.  
Through the Goddess work, I tapped into Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene and a host of other amazing Goddesses.  The healing that is occurring is nothing short of a miracle.
I have learned how gratitude for my life shifts everything! And I fell in love with my SELF. It is the catalyst for change.  Love is the greatest healing energy and with God and the Goddess I am healing and I am allowing the Divine feminine to evolve through me.
I remember one day when someone asked me if I was a witch... haha... that had bothered me.  I really had had no idea what it meant.  Now I do. Old programming made me feel like I was doing something wrong, bad, evil, dirty, ugly and wrong.  I am so grateful I discovered the truth.
​
Long ago, the priestess of the past observed the patterns of nature. They honoured Mother Earth with seasonal rituals.  Women were seen as the embodiment of the Great mother and were honoured and celebrated as she was able to grow life in her.  Later in History, Roman, Greek and Egyptian priestesses lived in holy temples. They were held in high esteem.  And then men began to fear them and persecuted and put them to death.  Those managing to get away, fled their temples and went into hiding.

Today in the midst of the old falling patriarchy, a modern day priestess is emerging.  She brings wisdom, and integrates spiritual teachings with her own flavour and spins on on it.    This is why I feel strongly guided to pursue this part of me. I believe I was Her in many lifetimes.  I resonate deeply with Atlantis, Egypt, Biblical times, Roman times, Gypsy and witches.  I believe this lifetime is to help me empower myself.  

The three pillars of  femininity spirituality are healer, priestess and goddess.  The three stages of the goddess are maiden, mother, and crone. 

I learned with Desiree Dunbar, the nine stages of sovereignty are:

1. pain
2. support
3. inner compass
4. transition
5. authenticity
6. passion
7. bold action
8. service 
9. joy

I feel very secure in all areas.  I am healing my old pain, shame and guilt.  I feel that I have the love and support of my family.  I am in tune with my inner compass and intuition.  I am in transition from who I was to who I AM. I live authentically without masks.  I have deep passion for my life, my love and what I create and the energy I bring to the world.  I take bold action in all I have overcome to write in 21 books and create numerous courses. I am of service to the world and I live in joy each day.
I learned the five things I needed to harness to be the sovereign Goddess I am are:

1. Sacred Site power
2. Goddess power
3. Sisterhood power
4. body temple power
5. psychic power

I am sovereign.  My family and my husband know that I am my own person.  I don't belong to them. 
They recognize that through my healing, I am answering a Divine calling.  It is a deep calling of purpose and  I have a big job left to do. I listened to the call of the Divine Mother.  That is why I had a deep mothering energy my whole life.  I just didn't know how to direct it in an empowering way.  Instead I smothered.  Now I know better.  Now I am doing better.
This also meant that I had to let go of people, places and things that didn't have this vision as me.  I needed to pray for gentle and kind friends and teachers.  Now I feel that I must share the path of the priestess. It is a path of deep integrity and takes tremendous dedication.  I have it.  All those years of Health Information Management and integrity has served me well.  I am integral.  Anyone who knows me, knows that I am faithful, integral and dedicated to my healing through passing through deep reflection of my life, prayer, meditation, and speak my truth with love.  Hard work brings with it many rewards. I recognize my divinity.  I recognize my worthiness and mostly I recognize the amazing feminine soul I AM.
I am holy.  I am healthy.  I am happy.  With that energy I am better able to serve the beauty of life with so much love in my heart and with my whole body, mind and spirit.  I am no longer playing small.  I no longer subscribe to drama or people who choose to live out of alignment with lies and deception.  I choose to help raise the vibration of Mother Earth. I choose to see the sacred .
The way I see it now, I had to grow through what I went through in order to become a Priestess.  A woman who is standing in

• HER POWER.  
• connected deeply to SOURCE
• has created and maintained her BOUNDARIES
• loves HER SELF
• demands MORE of her life
• takes RESPONSIBILITY for her own life
• embodies the Divine FEMININE
• is STRONG
• SOVEREIGN
• HEALING and helping others heal, one card reading or live video at a time
• who is deeply SPIRITUAL and in control of her intuitive gifts
• feels worthy, loved and doesn't care who judges her as she knows the TRUTH.  HER TRUTH is good enough for her.
• is BECOMING a better stronger HUMAN who counts her BLESSINGS and is living an AUTHENTIC life
• has self-esteem
• has confidence
• is a leader
• is compassionate and kind
• is able to ENERGETICALLY protect herself

An affirmation of a High Priestess is this:
I honour the light within the darkness, I am light and my heart is open. I have infinite abilities and I accept who I am and who I am not.  I change what I can.  I am love and lovable.  I am here present in the NOW.  I look forward to the future with LOVE and POWER.

Over the past year or so, I have felt strongly guided to share my love of God, Jesus, Mother Mary and my Catholic roots.  This past Christmas, God put it on my heart to read the bible and so I purchased a 365 days of the Bible course and I am doing it each day.  Some parts are an easier read and some I am finding harder.  I discussed this with my mom and she said "before you read it, ask God to show you the meaning.  Then read it in silence for a few minutes.  If God wants to relay anything then a thought will come to you otherwise if not then that is ok too. Don't put pressure on yourself."  I loved that advice!  Thank you dear mom.  (Mary Giuliano)

Then last week my church shared a post to enthrone the bible in my home.  In the Catholic tradition, the book of sacred Scripture has been honoured as a symbol of God's living word present among us. I placed it on an altar in my office to remind me that I work for God.  That His word is the word that guides my life.  It is a reminder to seek and live God's word each day.  It sits behind me as God has my back.  I believe with every fibre of my being that HE is guiding my life.  I am living proof that you can love God and love angels.  You can love God and love Goddesses.  You can love God and love crystal. You can love God and love yoga!!! You can love Jesus with all your heart and be a spiritual teacher. I am here being of service to GOD.  He created everything.  I am here to shine my light and continue to allow others to see God through me.  Isn't life wonderful?  God gave us breath and free will to live a life that is pleasing to HIM AND to our own heart too.  In fact our heart is connected to HIS heart.

I am living full out. For a time, I didn't know where I fit.  I was told I was not a GOOD Christian.  In the spiritual community I was asked to tone down my God energy.  One time when I wanted to do speech and thank God, I was asked not to.  NO MORE!!!
So let me reintroduce myself.  Hi everyone.  I am Giuliana Giuliana Melo.  I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, auntie, friend, colleague, student and teacher.  I love God and He loves me.
This is not a this OR that world.  This is a this AND that world.  I am grateful to my teacher SDJ for teaching me that.  I believe that I need to trust God guides my journey. I believe that prayers are holy language and that we must talk to God through prayer.  I believe that meditation allows me to hear His voice.  I believe that I must give Him all the praise for my gifts when I am with you- my friend, client, student or with my family.  I believe that we must be safe and not entertain all energies for there are negative energies and entities that do not have our highest and greatest good at heart and so I will not entertain the dark.  I believe in the power of kindness and in LOVE being the greatest healing quality there is.  So if I resonate with you at all and if I can be of service then I am here.  I will never judge you.  I will never pretend to have all the answers and I promise I will always teach from my experiences and with the best of my ability.  My CEO is GOD.  Thank you God for my life.  Thank you friend for reading.  I would love to hear from you.  You can leave me a comment below. 
God bless you. 

Hello my friend,
I wanted to take a few moments to share some love as we get ready to usher in the new year!!  2020 has been a year of great focus on disease and un-wellness.  You have the power to focus on health.  I hope that you will join me in this intention.  I promise to show up each day and keep us focussed on all things positive. I hope that when you look back on 2020 you can find something to be grateful for, something that you learned and I hope that you can think of something to be excited about in 2021.  
I want to close the energy of 2020 with a prayer from my heart to all of you.

2020 Closing Prayer
Dear God, Universe, Source, Creator,
Grandmother's and Grandfather's, angels, 
guides and ancestors,
I thank you for all the great experiences I had in spite of Covid-19.
I thank you for all my success, joy, vitality, growth, and all my lessons learned.
Thank you for never leaving my side as I released old memories, pain, hurt and disappointments.
Thank you for helping me forgive myself and others.  I ask to be cleared from all trauma in order to set my soul and my spirit free.  Please God help me release negative karma.  I want to fully connect to the NOW.
At this moment, I prepare myself to welcome an even better 2021.  I am ready to level up. BECOME and receive.
Thank you for everything.  Amen and so it is.

I am sending you all wishes of love, light, health, joy and abundance.
Love 
Giuliana

Happy Monday Everyone.
I wanted to connect today to share some information that I just learned.
Did you know that the chopping down of a tree represents the death of Jesus and putting it back up represents the resurrection of Christ?  
Did you know that the wreaths we hang are never ending circles that represent eternity and the symbol of life?  
Did you now that candy canes were made to look like shepherd hooks and the colours red, Jesus blood, and the white is a symbol of purity?  
The gifts are a representation of the three gifts the wise men brought for Jesus, gold, frankincense and myrrh.  
So when you are running around wanting to get the perfect gift for someone, stop and take a deep breath.  Remember that you have been given the greatest gift ever.  Jesus was given to us to remove all our sins... Merry Christmas.

Christmas is NOT CANCELLED.
No gatherings in Alberta means just that.  Christmas is not cancelled!  Christmas is acknowledging the light in your life.  How you choose to do that is up to YOU!.  Christmas will come and will be whatever you choose to make of it.  Cherish those you live with and build new traditions together.  Reach out to friends and family via zoom and video.  Call a friend.  Gatherings are cancelled.  Not Christmas.  Make this one the most magical one yet.  I believe in magic.  Do you?
Make your favourite food.  Turn on all your lights.  Watch mass online.  Call your family and friends.  Prepare a beautiful table.  Drink your fave drink.  Watch a funny Christmas movie.  The spirit is in YOU my friends.
Christmas isn't where you are at.  It is who you are with.  Whether that is in person or not.
I wish you an amazing Christmas.  

As we head into the new year, 2021, I would love to invite you to receive your word of the year reading, whole year in advance supportive angel reading and my fourteen day Shine on Behalf of the Divine Self love event that runs from Jan 11 to 25.  You can find them all on my services page www.giulianamelo.com/services
