Move away from lack mentality to see the abundance that the universe has to offer you. Trust. Trust in yourself, your family, and community to provide all that you need. Carry your jasper this week to remind yourself of the abundance that is all around you.

Also societal conditioning such as: you have to suffer/sacrifice/work really hard to make money, you are not welcome/beautiful/accepted unless you look and act a certain way, the color of your skin/gender/sexuality determines your worth/what you are capable of, and other linear patriarchal thinking that separates and classifies people as good or bad.

If you scored many yes answers in the first group: Your throat chakra might be closed or under stimulated. You have a difficult time expressing your truth.

If you scored many yes answers in the third group: Your throat chakra may be too open or overstimulated. You might find it difficult to express yourself in ways that are understood by others. When this is happening, stop and listen. Pay attention to your breath and listen to what other people are saying. Practice talking less and listening more. When you can quiet and tune into the authentic voice of your inner teacher, your outer voice will become much clearer. Carry your blue calcite to help express your ideas, opinions, and needs clearly so that you are understood.

Imbalance in the Throat Chakra can be caused by: being told that your thoughts or feelings aren’t important/ intelligent/ worth listening to, criticism by parents as a child, being told to keep your thoughts and emotions to your self as a child, your opinions not being valued by your family or community, having your words be used against you after you confided in someone

Also societal conditioning such as: children should be seen and not heard, “How are you?” “I’m fine.”, the thousands of years old practice of chastising/exiling/murdering people who speak out against the social norm or offer fringe ideas or viewpoints, too much talking and not enough listening in most areas of western society

Also societal conditioning such as: our general tendency to move towards linear, tangible, practical, logical solutions and life decisions instead of trusting our intuition, the pressure to do what everyone else is doing even if it is against what your inner self is telling you to do, mistrust/discomfort in anything spiritual that isn’t mainstream religious

Are you waiting for God to send you an explanation for your painful experiences? If so, list those experiences.

Have you started and stopped a meditation practice? If so what are the reasons that you failed to maintain it?

What spiritual truths are you aware of that you do not live by? List them.
