That is one of my current professions (body and energy work). According to the people I work on, I'm quite good, but I have a difficult time admitting it ;)

I'm somewhere along the lines, but more on the educational side. My BS is in Health Science Studies - Community Health, Program Planning and Implementation, Grant Writing, and Epidemiology (focus on HIV/AIDS). Though I'm not using my degree professionally at the moment, it's always been quite helpful to have :)

I'm aobut to finish my Masters in Chinese medicine. By the end of the year, I hope to be a licensed acupuncturist.

All of the career choices I've gone over through the years including the one I went to school for are in the health care field. I have always felt the need to make people feel better, or go the extra mile for someone elses comfort over my own. I just found my "true astrological sign" this evening.

I was inexorably drawn to medical & health sciences at a very young age, and intended to go the med school to become a doctor, however, upon entering college, I found that other studies caught my attention. I also began to practice massage at that time. I went on to learn Joyrei, and several other forms of "non direct contact" healing, and employ both at different times according to intuition, and have rec'd feedback affirming many positive effects. I am as yet, uncertified, but cannot deny the comments & reaction I've rec'd even when not attempting to "heal" people of ailment. The simple act of direct, or indirect touch has had effects on many, and so I simply continue - however, I don't generally "talk" about it. While I employ this 'gift' rather sparingly, it has been manifested through music, touch, prayer, dance, listening, and other expressions.

Hi I am new here - Born December 3rd, 1965...:) I am a reiki practioner and am working on my Master Level...:)

Blessings,

whoever posted this about ophiuchus..thanks..i just found out that that is my sign..born dec 6 after sundown..

it is not actually the 13th sign..but the 9th...when you put it in the proper order..from what i understand..anyway...it sure is interesting.

seeing on how this is healing related, didnt know if anybody had or looked into a degree in Naturopathy?

I've never formally considered myself a healer. At the moment I would call myself a performer but, over the years I have been given thousands of Tarot readings that people still mention years later. I also do reiki treatments for good friends or when the energy calls me to it.

Seemed like a three year thread, so its never too late to contribute.

I'm a massage therapist, and I'm certified in Reiki.

I have Mars, Saturn, and Uranus in Ophiuchus.

Growing up I found myself constantly drawn to nutrition and health and in my later years.. alternative medicines and justice combined. In the past few years I've felt an overwhelming urge to heal the ills of man. As if this were my life's purpose and devout mission.

I'm currently studying in my own time, what I can, from the internet.. until I can afford further schooling to become a Doctor of natural medicine, etc...

I feel a great sense of fulfillment when helping direct someone in the right direction towards health.

And it is true what they say .. about Ophiuchus types feeling the pain of others.. sometimes too much. Yep, that's me...!

I have one question though.. In terms of Mutable, Fixed, Flexible.. or Fire, Earth, Water, Air.. which is Ophiuchus?

healer too...of sorts...
always been one i guess... its not quite something ive chosen... its always been there..
i practice Reiki, Seichim & the Golden Dragon... the latter is one i use the most.
Being initiated into the 2nd degree soon & looking forward to it too :D

Artist, Dj, musican, poet, healing, yes.

Healing the healer is our occasional busincess, moreproperly as O5, RTRRT, PCS and RRREIKIDO masters. We also healed the zodiac.

im healer like...mostly headaches or other non life threatening stuff. ...i use imagery in a way to do so.

IM A HEALER TOO BUT LIKE AS A PSYCHOLOGIST. IM REALLY GOOD WITH TALKING TO PEOPLE AND HELPING THEM WITH THEIR PROBLEMS.
