Healing the Trauma of the Land

Most of us have heard someone say that “everything is energy.” This is true but what it often fails to translate into is how this includes the energy of our homes and the land they are built on too.

Consider this…

There is a beautiful piece of land for sale. It draws you in and this is the place where you decide to build your new forever home. You’re so excited that you don’t really think to explore the history of the land. It turns out that something tragic took place on that land almost 100 years ago. Soon enough, your new home is complete and your family moves in. The happy vibes of this new home start to fade, and before long, one of more of your family members start to feel depleted, out of balance, or sick. What was built with love and intention to be a dream home now feels like a nightmare at worst, a bad decision at best.

When a home has disruptive energy, the children are usually the first to feel or react to this energy. Nightmares, night terrors, and even emotional imbalances begin to surface after the family moves in. The parents try to handle things in more traditional ways, only to admit they are not getting results.

When you find you’re living in a home with unresolved trauma, it takes a lot of effort to stay above the lower vibrational field of the home and land. Over time, this can wear a homeowner out, which leads to depletion. This is comparable to attempting to hold two ten-pound weights at arm’s length 24/7. After a while, it becomes impossible to sustain. Exhaustion, issues with sleeping, a lowered immune system, and emotional issues begin to surface.

Today, there is an awakening of sorts, a calling to heal our environments, which means to heal the land our homes are built on as well. We are now aware that just like us, the land we live on carries energy from the past. Even newly built homes, on a piece of property where no houses previously existed, can carry history from past events that occurred in that area.

Consider the long history of our country and all of the events that have happened since it was first inhabited by humans. The grief, anger, trauma, and abuse that has been created over time, still exists in many parts of the country. Throughout the country, there are many areas holding energy of abuse and trauma rooted in the abuse the Indigenous tribes experienced. For those who live in the southern and eastern areas of the country, there is also some very heavy energy created by the Revolutionary and Civil wars. 

Once this energy is created, it exists until it is addressed and can shift to an elevated form. Remembering how energy never goes away, we must try to transform it until it’s cleared of its negative influence on our lives. 

If you feel this type of heavy energy or would like to begin healing your property, here are some simple steps you can take to start uplifting the energy:

  1. Find a quiet space, go to your heart and send energy to the heart of your land. If you don’t feel a connection, it is giving you information that some energy needs to be cleared.

  2. Visualize a violet light bathing your property. The violet light is a Universal Frequency and has the ability to release energies created by past events.

  3. Honor the land by burying a rose quartz, clear quartz, or amethyst crystal somewhere on the property. As you hold the crystal, ask to be guided as to the best place to bury it.

  4. Invite the nature spirits to help heal the land. Many people are starting to work in collaboration with the beings of Mother Earth and they are waiting to be asked. 

Everything we do with the intention of healing the land will create a change. The first step one can take is to recognize what is being felt isn’t in the imagination. Trust this feeling, seeing and sensing what it means, and what it may be calling you to do.
