NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL.LII, MAY 2026

Hooray, we made it to Spring.

Just so you know, besides this blog, I have been doing mini-readings at my Shoemaker’s shop whenever I cross paths with someone who resonates with a different way of looking at life. The whole point is to share insights that enhance collective awareness of what is happening around us. My goal has been to direct people to Linda’s Sonic Reiki work, her website, and the books she is currently writing. Also, to shine light on the patterns and vibrations held in their name and birth energy. More about Linda at the end of this blog.

May is the 5th month of the year, and it resonates with the throat chakra.

Quick story. A while ago, Linda and I were having a conversation, and I asked her, “Would you like to hear my opinion about this subject?” She surprised me by saying NO.  She then continued by saying, “Tom, I am not interested in opinions, but I am interested in your truth. Tell me what you know to be true!” I will always remember this because it adds real value to the discussion. When we speak our truth, the conversation has real meaning and something worth our time and energy. At the same time, it is a reminder to focus on what I am contributing and sharing.

At the end of April, on the 25th, a huge cosmic shift began, Uranus moved into Gemini, and will be here for seven years. This cosmic event supports a great change and awakening energy focused on the voice and expressing our authentic self. It is about speaking our truth. There has been a fear about being yourself and speaking out, and that is about to change. The fifth month, the throat chakra, and the cosmic energy shift are all aligned to manifest this beautiful development.

The number 5, traditionally in numerology, symbolizes freedom and is often depicted as horses running free, like mustangs on the open range. Free of corrals and restrictions, on the open range. Coincidentally, this is the year of the Fire Horse in the Chinese calendar. We really need to take heed when exercising our freedom, whether it be on horseback, in speech, or in partying, so that we are not burned by the intensity of the fire we create or tap into.

May 1st brings in the first of two full moons this month, called the Blue Moon.  This one is the Scorpio full moon, and it will have the tendency to release deep, dark energy that has been working its way to the surface, not to be feared. There will be great opportunities to look at what has been repressed and embrace it, expanding our awareness of who we truly are at our core. This can reveal an insight into our spiritual essence; it is time.

Most of the numerology found on this blog site has been written from a base-10 perspective. The work that Linda is sharing is primarily base-12. We are ready to embrace a deeper dive into human consciousness. I encourage an open mind and heart. I wholeheartedly recommend this deep dive. Let’s do this together, along with the free mustangs.

Namaste’, Tom

Hi everyone, Linda here,

As we begin to understand that our lives follow patterns far more intricate than we were taught, a natural question arises: What is my pattern?
This is where the work expands beyond theory and into personal experience.

New Earth Numerology Charts are created using a base-12 mathematical system, which offers a more expansive and harmonically aligned framework than traditional base-10 numerology. In this system, your birth date, name, and key life markers are translated into a twelve-based frequency structure that reveals deeper layers of your life path, soul perspective, innate gifts, and evolving cycles. Rather than focusing only on personality traits or single-number interpretations, this approach maps your life as a dynamic energetic pattern—showing how your experiences, challenges, and opportunities unfold within a larger, coherent design.

What makes these charts uniquely powerful is their integration with Medical Astrology and Chinese Astrology. The Medical Astrology component highlights energetic patterns within the body, offering insight into areas of strength, sensitivity, and early warning signals—always framed as supportive awareness, not diagnosis. Chinese Astrology adds another layer by bringing in elemental influences, timing cycles, and personality dynamics based on your birth year and elemental constitution. Together, these three systems create a multidimensional view of your life, helping you understand not just who you are, but how to work with your energy in a practical, grounded way.

The benefits of a New Earth Numerology Chart extend far beyond curiosity. Clients often experience greater clarity in decision-making, deeper self-understanding, and a renewed sense of alignment with their life direction. It can illuminate hidden talents, relationship patterns, communication styles, and even how to move through periods of challenge with more ease and awareness. This is not about prediction—it is about empowerment, coherence, and learning to work with the natural rhythm of your life.

Many Blessings,

Linda

NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL. LI, APRIL,2026

Hurray, we made it to April/Springtime. April 1st is a Full Moon in Libra, and there are no planets in retrograde. “No fooling,” zero. That means there is a great deal of energy available for our manifestations and for creativity. A full moon is an overflowing of energy ready to assist our intentions. Since it is also in Libra, there is a sense of balance. Be energized, yet under control.

April is the fourth month. In base-10, the four is all about structure and foundation. Take time to look at what you have relied on to be your foundation. It’s critical since this is a time when all our beliefs are being challenged and tested.  In base-12, the 4 is always connected to the number 3. 4×3 = 12. The three is always taking the structure of four to higher levels, reminding us that we are working with cosmic energy. If we simply add 4+3=7, we are led to the spiritual aspect of 4. Number 7 represents spirituality. There is a spiritual aspect to this structure, and we are being called to notice its subtlety.

 We can also examine the significance of the number four in the chakra system, the heart chakra. It is generally believed that this is where we hold love.  The great spiritual leaders have all taught that love is the answer. Songwriters have sung, “all we need is love.”  I believe this is true; we must practice it to make it work.

But how many of us know what love is?  We can all agree that there is romantic love, the giddy-up that fuels so many early relationships. There is so much stress and chaos around us these days that finding a way to act harmoniously throughout the day is quite a test. It seems to me that little gestures of kindness are a very good start. Qualities like caring and consideration for others are essential to making this shift.

Linda recently reminded me how important it is to simply listen and be there for another. It is so difficult to say something meaningful when someone loses a loved one. What is happening to them is not rational. Therefore, we must respond with kindness.

April 1st is a 4/1/10 , (2026=10). The 10 and the 1 represent a new start for this structure. When the 4 appears again, as in 4/4/2026, it is a fresh start for a higher level of the heart and for our capacity to love. It is the little gestures that express love, and the more we get into the mindset of coming from a place of kindness, the easier it is to pause instead of react to chaos. Responding with care is a great form of love. Nurture this attitude and the world will be a finer place, easier to grow and expand human consciousness.

Happy Springtime, Namaste’ Tom

The Moment Awareness Begins to Shift

The quiet turning point where perception softens and consciousness begins to expand

There is a moment—quiet, almost imperceptible—when everything begins to change.

It does not arrive with fanfare.
It does not announce itself as transformation.
In fact, it often feels like nothing at all.

And yet… it is the beginning of everything.

This moment is not about what is happening around you.
It is about what is happening within you.

The Subtle Turning Point

For most of our lives, awareness is directed outward.

We watch.
We react.
We interpret the world through patterns we have carried—sometimes for years, sometimes for lifetimes.

Emotions feel automatic.
Thoughts feel true.
Reactions feel justified.

Until… something softens.
You may not even know why.

Perhaps you pause before reacting.
Perhaps you notice the emotion instead of becoming it.
Perhaps you feel a small space where there used to be none.

That space—that gentle pause—is the moment awareness begins to shift.

From Identification to Observation

Before this shift, we are inside the experience.
After this shift, we begin to observe the experience.

It is a profound change, even though it feels subtle.

You are no longer fully entangled in the emotion.
You are aware of it.

You are no longer completely defined by the thought.
You are witnessing it.

This is not detachment in a cold or disconnected way.
It is a soft expansion of awareness.

A widening.
A remembering.

The Lightness That Follows

As awareness shifts, something else begins to change—almost naturally.

The weight of emotion starts to feel different.

Not because the emotion disappears…
but because it is no longer held in the same way.

It becomes clearer.
Less contracted.
Less dense.

It became clear to me that the weight of emotion is not fixed.
As emotional experiences are felt and integrated, they no longer carry the same density.

The system becomes lighter—not because the emotion is gone, but because it is no longer held in contraction.

And in this lighter, more coherent state, awareness expands more easily.
What once felt heavy no longer limits perception.

Access to higher states of consciousness becomes… natural.

Why This Moment Matters

This moment—this subtle shift—is the foundation of awakening.

Not the dramatic moments.
Not the breakthroughs we often seek.

But this quiet, internal turning.

Because once awareness begins to shift, it does not fully return to the way it was.

You begin to see patterns.
You begin to feel more clearly.
You begin to respond, rather than react.

And from here… everything becomes possible.

A Gentle Practice to Support the Shift

You do not need to force this moment.
But you can notice it.

Take a breath.

The next time an emotion arises, pause.

Not to stop it.
Not to change it.

Simply to notice:

What am I feeling right now?
Where do I feel it in my body?
Can I stay present with it, just for a moment?

That is all.

This is how awareness strengthens.
This is how the shift deepens.

A Closing Reflection

Awareness does not arrive all at once.
It unfolds… moment by moment.

And each time you notice—each time you pause—you are stepping into a more expanded version of yourself.

The shift may feel small.
But it is not.

It is the doorway.

Continue the Journey

If this resonated with you, you are not alone.

This work is a living exploration—one that continues to unfold through awareness, sound, and integration.

I share deeper insights, practices, and frequency-based support through my newsletter and the Sonic Apothecary Library.

You are warmly invited to continue this journey with me.

NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL. L, MARCH 2026

                      Ahh, March, hopefully spring is on its way. It is the third month of the year, and 3 represents communication. Interestingly enough, on the 26th of February, Planet Mercury went into retrograde. The planet is considered the Messenger of the Gods, able to access the mortal and immortal worlds and share its insights.  This retrograde will last until the 20th of the month. We are advised by the ancients to avoid starting new adventures, signing contracts, or beginning new projects. Yet March is a 3 frequency and all about communication. How we navigate this energy is a measure of our development as meaningful contributors to the fabric of humanity.

Along with Mercury’s influence, on March 3rd, there will be a Total Lunar Eclipse. This brings the energy of transformation, and it is up to us to exercise diligent focus to maximize the Eclipse’s transformative energy.  The 3 ‘s value is how it encourages us to assume the position of observer. We no longer hold our point of view in opposition to another, but stand aside as neutral while we discern the greater meaning in this situation.

March 3 will hold the energy of 33, a master number. So will 3/12/26, 3/21/26, and 3/30/26. A master number vibrates to a higher frequency. On these days, there is a greater ease in accessing the bigger picture. Mercury’s energy draws us deep into the subconscious, and we require focus, stillness, and trust in ourselves to bring the insights into our physical reality rather than the imagined world. Part of what we might see is how differently the frequency of 3 appears in base-10 numerology, compared to base-12.

The simplest observation is that, in base-10, the number 10 can only be divided evenly by 2×5=10. If we divide 10 by 3, the remainder is always 1. The division will be fragmented. Meanwhile, in base-12,2×6=12 evenly. 3×4=12 evenly. Base-12 has twice as many options as base-10.  We are constantly building on experiences and information.  In the first month of the year, we focused on one point of view; in the second month, on the relationship between another point; and now we are observing from a third (3) position, making observations and even becoming a storyteller. If we tell the story from a base-10 perspective, it will be incomplete. There will always be “a remainder”, something incomplete.

Interestingly, in base-12, the story can be told from the energy of 3×4=12, meaning that the communication (3) will be magnified by 4, which holds the energy of structure and foundation. We are vibrating to higher frequencies. Base-12 is a higher frequency and is now an integral part of our reality. The communication will serve as the architecture for the future. We need to be aware of this potential and how it will yield fresh outcomes for humanity. Our choice is to nurture a divine communication revealed from deep within our subconscious mind, yearning to manifest into a newly evolving reality for our highest potential.

FYI, Linda has just finished her new website for Sonic Reiki. It is very helpful at this time in our development. It holds a very high frequency. Check it out! Sonic Reiki

Sonic Reiki: Entering a New Chapter

The Evolution of Sonic Reiki

On February 23, 2026, Sonic Reiki officially steps into a new chapter.

What began years ago as a calling has quietly evolved through experience, reflection, and steady devotion to frequency-based healing work. There were seasons of learning. Seasons of refinement. Seasons of building behind the scenes.

Sonic Reiki was founded in 2009, rooted in traditional Reiki principles and guided by an intuitive understanding of sound and vibration. Over time, that integration deepened. What became clear is that frequency — when offered with intention and awareness — has the ability to support the release of stress patterns, restore emotional balance, and gently realign the energetic field.

This relaunch is not about starting over. It is about stepping forward with greater clarity.

The work has matured.

The offerings are more focused.

The intention is steadier.

Sonic Reiki continues to integrate traditional Reiki principles with intentional sound to support:

• Emotional balance
• Stress release
• Energetic alignment
• Spiritual integration
• Support for both people and animals

The new digital space reflects this refinement — a clearer structure, grounded leadership, and a renewed commitment to serving from presence rather than urgency.

There is something powerful about allowing work to grow quietly before bringing it fully into the light. When the timing feels aligned, stepping forward becomes natural rather than forced.

February 23 marks that moment.

I look forward to sharing this next phase of Sonic Reiki and welcoming those who feel called to explore frequency-based Reiki support in a deeper way.

The new Sonic Reiki website will be live on February 23, 2026.

Grateful for the journey that has led here.

NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL. XLIX, FEB. 2026

February is the second month (2) and holds the energy of relationships. Of course, it is known for Valentine’s Day and the whole love energy. It can be the positive or the negative aspects, the contradictory or harmonious. There will always be potential for either side of the coin to surface or be obscured. During this month, there will be multiple occurrences of the number 2 in sequence. For example; 2/2/2026, 2/12/2026, 2/20/2026, 2/22/2026 . Each time the number is repeated, it takes on a deeper meaning.  22 will hold the master’s energy, seeing the bigger picture. It can also be the frequency of structure (2+2=4), and heartfelt energy. Three twos (222=6) in sequence is the family, and four twos (2222=8 ) is all about prosperity.

Just be aware that these sequences are present and influencing our relationship to this energy. It calls on us to notice our relationships with money, family, and matters of the heart. It is very helpful to focus on being grounded and intentional about moving forward. Trust yourself to sense your center, no matter the upheaval. You know who you are; there is no need to allow outside influence to knock you off your center.    

February 1st begins with a Full Moon in Leo. Leo energy wants to be playful and creative, and fiery at the same time. Venus is present with love vibrations. Be open to these frequencies influencing our relationships with others.

There is so much noise in the technology airways that we must be very careful to establish boundaries to protect our personal space and ourselves. A huge challenge is to focus on our relationship with our inner and outer world. The goal is harmony, coherence, and alignment with our authentic self, no matter what is happening outside or with others. Keep in mind the 10/10 energy of new beginnings we talked about last month. Our goal there and here is to begin anew, moving forward aligned with the new vision we see for ourselves.   

A QUICK STORY

Looking at the 10/10 sequence reminds me how deeply we can be imprinted in our early years. When I was 10 years old, my self-esteem was traumatized, and reactive toward any authority. At the next sequence of 10, 20, 30, I was still dealing with the same issues. My 40s and 50s were less dramatic. Yet it wasn’t until I began to awaken to my higher self that I realized I could change how my patterning played out. Those patterns became a filter influencing my identity and my reality.   

Through intention and focus, we can send Divine Love to these memories and imprints, creating the possibilities we require for a new beginning to manifest in our lives.

Aligning with the 10/10 energy is a huge gift of 2026.

 Feb. 17/ 2026   is the New Moon Solar Eclipse, the first of four eclipses in 2026. It is paving a new pathway for our vision and dreams. The energy focuses on being more active in achieving and creating relationships with ourselves and others.  

The planetary alignments are also resonating with relationships. Neptune and Saturn come together in Aries. The last time this happened was in 1703. So this is a big deal astrologically. Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac, and this resonates with the 10/10 frequency we are talking about.  Saturn is all about rules and boundaries. Real-world stuff that most people deal with in society. On the other hand, Neptune is about letting go of limitations.  The Leo Full Moon loves the Neptune energy. It is about exploring a new spiritual identity, a new sense of who you are internally, and how you navigate the public, outer world. At first glance, Saturn and Neptune might seem to be competing or in conflict, yet this is a perfect example of how the heavens support cosmic harmonic relationships. It has been a long time coming. Integrating these energies and  Feb 20th is just the beginning. We will feel it all month long.  

Just like astrology is here supporting us, we need to be here, fully present, supporting one another. The strongest place for us to come from is to be fully grounded, honor our true selves, and share our gifts while knowing and maintaining the boundaries essential to an awakened, compassionate being.

NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL. XLVIII, JAN.2026

                                       

HAPPY, HEALTHY NEW YEAR TO US ALL. This edition will focus on the number 10 more than other blogs. As you know, 2025 was a 9-year (2+0+2+5=9), and 2026 is a 10-year (2+0+2+6=10). Ten is all about new beginnings (1) and potential (0). The year follows a year of (9) completion, resolution, and release of all that no longer serves our growth and evolution. We are now entering the vibrational frequency of freshness, development, and initiative.

There will be days like 1/1/2026 that vibrate to 1/1/10, 1/10/10, 1/19 is also a 1/10/10, and 1/28 is 1/10/10. Consider this for a moment. A binary computer is all 1’s and 0’s. We are observing a binary code when we see 1/10/10.  In numerology, when we see doubles, we are being called to attention that this frequency is significant. It is more than the potential for a new beginning. We are called to examine the sequence closely. Now, the potential holds the energy of all that is dormant and capable of activation, and the new beginning asks us to align with this code.

The 10/10 code will be presented in all 12 months this year, for example, 2/10/10, 3/10/10, etc. 

It is no exaggeration to say that 2025 was exhausting, month after month, as we addressed all the unfinished, unresolved issues we had purged and cleared. That work is being rewarded with renewed energy. It will be available year-round from multiple perspectives. The January sequence  of 1/10/10 holds three 1’s. Together 1+1+1=three (3). Contained in the sequence is the magnified energy of the double  0’s and the trinitized 1, meaning communication. The potential can be realized through the profound communication embedded in this code.

Our DNA/RNA is our “organic, authentic computer”. The sequence shown to us in numerology mirrors the genome. The code we see in our everyday life is found within each one of us. We have the opportunity to align ourselves with this code to initiate a fresh start, a rejuvenation of our hidden purpose, free of the blocks and old patterns we agreed to at this time on Earth. Verbalizing our intent brings it into our conscious reality.  

THE KEY IS TO ALIGN.

If you choose, you may state your intent; (It is my intent to align with this 1/10/10 sequence, easily and effortlessly, aligned with my highest possible reality for my divine communication with my highest possible reality for aligning to my sacred purpose and potential, now. Thank you, thank you, thank you.)  

It can be very effective to state this intent on all the days of this year that resonate with this numerology.

This is a very significant time in the development of Human Consciousness. We have a profound awakening within our reach. No matter how far along a person is on this journey, this code frequency will take us all to another level in our development.

I feel very fortunate to be a part of this moment with all of you. Namaste’ Tom          

Message and gift of music from Linda:

If earlier years were about awakening, 2026 is about orientation –“Where am I inside this new consciousness?”

111 Hz is best played in moments of transition—early morning, before sleep, during meditation, or whenever you are setting an intention—because it helps bring the nervous system into coherence while aligning thought, body, and subtle energy into a single point of focus. Its importance for 2026 lies in its role as a reset and recalibration frequency: as collective systems reorganize and many people feel ungrounded or overstimulated, 111 Hz supports clarity, cellular communication, and gentle embodiment, helping the body and energy field anchor higher awareness without overload. In essence, it stabilizes awakening so insight can be lived, not just perceived.

111 Hz

Collective Lesson of 2026 –“You do not need to become something new, you need to inhabit what already arrived!

When Grief Speaks Through Emotion

Understanding Why We React the Way We Do

Grief does not always look like tears. Sometimes it arrives disguised as frustration, irritability, confusion, or even anger. When someone learns that a friend, family member, or loved one has passed, the emotions can ripple through the nervous system in surprising and unpredictable ways.

As compassionate partners, friends, or caregivers, we often wonder: “Why did they react like that?”, “Why did a simple conversation suddenly turn tense?”, “Why did it feel I could not say anything right?”

The truth is:

Grief changes how the brain processes information. And understanding this can bring tremendous compassion and ease into your relationships.

  • Grief Creates Cognitive Overload–Even when a person appears calm on the outside, grief can overload the mind. This can show up as: difficulty tracking conversations, confused or contradicting statements, misinterpretation of simple questions, forgetting details, and mentally “foggy” or scattered. This happens because the emotional centers of the brain are activated, pulling energy away from logical, clear thinking. The person is not avoiding or resisting clarity–their mind is temporarily overwhelmed.
  • The Emotional Brain Takes Over–During grief, the amygdala (the emotional center) becomes more active. This can lead to: defensiveness, irritability, overreactions to small corrections, sudden emotional intensity, feeling criticized even when no criticism was intended. When someone is grieving, their nervous system in a heightened state of sensitivity. A gentle clarification meant to help may be perceived as questioning, contradicting, or correcting. It is not logical–it is neurological.
  • Grief Can Trigger a Need for Control–When life delivers painful news, people often try to anchor themselves in small details–dates, times, places, and arrangements. These details give a sense of stability during emotional chaos. So, when a detail is connected or clarified, even gently, the grieving person may feel: destabilized, overwhelmed, emotionally exposed, or as if something was “taken away.” This is not a reaction to the other person it is a reaction to loss.
  • Grief and Communication Misfires–It is common during grief for communication to feel disjointed: one partner tries to clarify, the other feels misunderstood, emotions rise quickly, small misunderstanding feel large, and both parties walk away confused. This does not mean there is a relationship problem. It means there is a grief response happening beneath the surface. When the emotional system is flooded, even kind intentions can be misinterpreted.
  • How to support a Grief Loved One–A few gentle approaches can make a world of difference: Slow your communication pace. People experiencing grief process information more slowly. Silence and patience are gifts. Avoid correcting details unless absolutely necessary. Clarity can wait. Emotional safety can not. Use soft, grounding statements: “I am her with you,” “We are okay,” “you are not alone.” Expect emotional waves: Some may feel composed at first, then overwhelmed later. Grief is not linear. Offer compassion, not solutions. Presence is more healing than advice.
  • And for those supporting someone grieving–It is normal to feel confused or even hurt if a grieving loved one reacts strongly. Remember: It is not about you, It is not disrespect, it is not a sign of relationship instability, it is an emotional system under pressure.

Grief temporarily alters perception: Once the emotional surge settles, communication softens again.

A closing thought:

Grief reveals the tender places in us–places where love once lived and still lives. When we understand the hidden emotional mechanics behind someone’s reactions, we can respond not with frustration, but with compassion.

Sometimes the most healing thing we can offer is not the right words….but a steady presence.

If your loved ones or clients are moving through grief, may this perception help you navigate their emotional landscape with deeper understanding, patience, and grace.

Namaste~

NEW EARTH NUMEROLOGY VOL.XLVII, DEC. 2025

 

December is the 12th month of the year and the last month of the calendar year.  November, you may recall, was about embracing the “master within”. We will benefit from acting like a master when the 12 frequency challenges us. 12 is composed of the 2 ( relationships ) and 1( new beginnings). The relationship can be about opposites, such as good/evil, positive/negative, or yin/yang.  The one (1) holds the energy of a fresh start in how we approach these opposing forces.

Right at the beginning of December, 12/2/2025, is the Antares stargate. It is one of the Royal stars, and it is said to be the resting place for our soul when we leave this physical plane. Notice all the 2’s in this date. We are being asked to look at relationships. The year 2025 is a year of completions and resolutions, and here in the 12th month, it is focused on resolving relationship-based issues.

The stargate is strongest between 12/2 and 12/4, leading us to  12/4/25, a full moon in the sign of Gemini, often referred to as the Twins. Again, it relates to opposites. Some say the twins represent both our physical and spiritual realities. The numerology suggests an opportunity to think of this differently, in a fresh way, or, altogether, to transform the familiar way. 12/4 on this Super Full Moon, the third and last super full moon of the year, holds the energy of the heart chakra. 4 also holds structure. We are being supported in this work to resolve issues this month.

When we look for 12 in the familiar base-ten number system, there is no 12; only 1 + 2 = 3, and 3 is the focus of communication.  That’s it in base 10.   However, in base 12, numbers 1 through 12, we see 1+2 = 3 ( communication), and 2×6 = 12; we also see 3×4 = 12.  It is a new way to appreciate the number 12, since it holds the energy of new beginnings (1), relationships (2), communication (3), structure for heartfelt matters(4), and family (6). 

Recently, I have been reading a lot about AI, and I feel it has a similar vibration to the new way to look at 12. My understanding of the most significant shift in computation is the evolution of the microchip. To create faster, more powerful computers, it was believed we needed to make larger chips. Not so, someone said. What if we break the chip into mini-chips and cluster them around the question, forming a network that communicates to solve the problem? The answer is no longer linear. The answer is a vast cluster of related information, integrated by the chips’ intercommunication. 

That is the point of a new way (1) to look at relationships (2).   I plan to continue using base 10 as a reference point, but when an insight is revealed to me, I will embrace base 12 for added significance. Numerology is a way to gain insight into ourselves. Seeing how the number 12 holds mini-chips of info, it’s encouraging us to let go of the linear approach and advance our understanding from a cluster of focal points.

The 12/12date, holds a magnification of all that we have noticed, and 12/21, the Solstice, mirrors the 12/12. In the northern hemisphere, this is the shortest day of the year and marks the beginning of winter. The solstice is an advantageous day to set your intentions for the coming year. 2026 (2+0+2+6 = 10) will resonate to a 10. Aligning with new beginnings and fresh starts. We need to take advantage of this energy and get something rolling that has been a dream in waiting.

A QUICK STORY ABOUT RESOLUTION.

I might have shared before that my relationship with my Dad was very stormy and full of conflict. One day, as an adult, about this time of the year, I was visiting with Dad, and I felt that I could apologize for all the grief I had created between him and me. His response surprised me. “No need to apologize, just stop doing it”. HUM, how about that!  After some reflection, I realized I was seeking forgiveness. Later, it became clear that forgiving myself and accepting where I am now was key to moving forward and growing.   

We are saying that the 12 energy is about relationships, and it could be a key to our growth to embrace the goal of deeply examining our relationship with the balance between the physical and spiritual aspects of ourselves. Be kind, gentle, accepting, and self-nurturing; it can lead to profound resolutions and preparation for the coming New Year.

Be well, radiate Love, and believe in yourself, NAMASTE’ Tom

When Healing Comes Full Circle

How Holistic Medicine Restores What Modern Care Often Misses

After decades of working with energy, sound, and subtle anatomy, I have seen that true healing happens when we remember that the body and spirit are partners–not separate systems.

The Difference Between Treating and Healing

Modern medicine is extraordinary at treating symptoms and saving lives. It can reset a broken bone, stop an infection, or replace a failing organ–miracles of human ingenuity and scientific precision. But Healing is something more profound.

Healing begins when we understand that every cell, thought, and emotion vibrates in relationship to one another. While treatment targets the problem, healing invites us to listen to the message behind it. The headache, the fatigue, the anxiety—these are not random malfunctions but signals from the body’s intelligence asking us to realign.

Holistic medicine does not reject modern science; it completes it. It brings awareness to the unseen—energy fields, emotions, beliefs, and frequencies—that influences our physical reality. When we integrate both worlds —the tangible and the subtle —we move beyond temporary relief into restoration.

I have witnessed this countless times in my practice: when a client releases emotional pain held in the body, their physical discomfort often softens or disappears entirely. That moment is not just recovery—it is remembrance. The body remembers how to heal itself.

Why Holistic Medicine Works on a Cellular Level

Every organ, cell, and atom in the human body vibrates with energy. Science confirms what ancient healers have always known—that we are bio-electrical beings, constantly sending and receiving information through subtle frequencies.

At the cellular level, healing begins with communication. Mitochondria—the power plants of the cell—do not just generate energy: they sense harmony or danger. When we are under chronic stress, Fear, or emotional tension, the Vagus nerve tightens, and our cells interpret that as a signal of threat. Energy production drops, inflammation rises, and the immune system weakens.

Holistic medicine restores that communication. Practices such as Reiki, meditation, breathwork, and sound frequency therapy calm the Vagus nerve and remind the body it is safe to heal. When the body feels safe, energy flow resumes. The mitochondria repair. The heart rhythm steadies. The immune system recalibrates.
As I often tell my students: Energy follows intent, and precedes form. When we align the frequency, the form naturally follows.

When You Lose Your Allopathic Insurance. Finding Hope, Not Fear

Losing medical insurance can feel unsettling—like stepping into the unknown. Yet for many, that moment becomes an awakening. It opens the doors to a deeper truth —healing, but not limited to a system of copays and coverage. It begins with how we care for our energy, our emotions, and our daily choices.

One of the most encouraging surprises people discover is that holistic care is often far more affordable than conventional treatment. While allopathic medicine relies on costly tests and prescriptions, holistic care focuses on prevention and balance—practices that strengthen the body’s natural ability to heal.
A Reiki or sound healing session may cost less than a single doctor’s visit without insurance, and the benefits often ripple through body, mind, and spirit. Herbal medicine, meditation, and breathwork require only minimal ongoing costs once learned. Many practitioners offer sliding—scale fees, community circles, or energy exchanges to make care accessible.

When the safety net of Insurance disappears, a greater truth can emerge. The most powerful medicine often costs nothing: awareness, breath, rest, nutrition, love, and sound.

How to Find the Right Holistic Practitioner for You

Finding the right practitioner is as personal as the healing journey itself. The most important ingredient is not credentials—it is resonance. Healing requires trust, safety, and energetic alignment between you and the person guiding you.

Here is how to begin your search:

  1. Seek Authentic Experiences, Not Just Titles – a practitioner with decades of experience, even without a formal license, can carry deep wisdom passed down through lineage and practice.
  2. Ask for Transparency—An ethical healer will clearly explain their training, approach, and fees—and never promise a cure.
  3. Trust Word of Mouth—The best healers often come recommended quietly through trusted friends, yoga studios, or wellness circles.
  4. Look for Integrative Awareness—True holistic practitioners respect both worlds—they understand when to refer to a doctor and when energy work is appropriate.
  5. Start with a Conversation—Many offer a free consultation. Use this time to sense the practitioner’s energy and see if it feels aligned.

A true healer does not “fix” you; they help you remember who you are beneath the imbalance.

When Healing Comes Full Circle

When we finally step beyond Fear of illness, of cost, of doing it “wrong”—we realize that healing has always been within reach. Holistic medicine is not a trend; it is a return to ancient knowing. It honors science and soul, structure, and spirit.

Whether you find your path through Reiki, sound therapy, nutrition, or mindfulness, healing always begins in the same place: Awareness that your body is intelligent. Awareness that energy responds to intention. Awareness that love is the most potent medicine of all.
