When it comes to manifesting money, many of us grapple with deeply ingrained beliefs and fears that hinder our financial success. These beliefs often stem from childhood experiences, societal conditioning, and personal traumas. Shadow work offers a powerful method to unearth these hidden blocks, heal our relationship with money, and pave the way for financial abundance.

As a professional astrologer and tarot reader, I’ve observed how our unique astrological placements and tarot archetypes mirror our financial behaviors and beliefs. By employing shadow work, we can go beyond surface-level affirmations and dive deep into the subconscious patterns that influence our financial reality.

Understanding Shadow Work and Money

Many people hold the belief that “money is the root of all evil,” but this saying oversimplifies the complex emotions and traumas we associate with money. Shadow work encourages us to examine these deeper issues and understand how they shape our financial lives.

Imagine you’re in a secluded cabin in the woods, enjoying the solitude until the power goes out. You need to muster the courage to explore the dark basement to check the fuse box. Shadow work is akin to this journey—requiring bravery to confront the hidden aspects of our psyche where our deepest financial fears and traumas reside.

Inspecting Micro Traumas Around Money

Our relationship with money is often influenced by micro traumas—small, seemingly insignificant experiences that accumulate over time. These traumas can create subconscious blocks that keep us trapped in a cycle of financial struggle.

 1. Identify Micro Traumas: Reflect on your earliest memories of money. Did you experience scarcity, witness financial struggles, or receive conflicting messages about wealth? Use tools like astrology and tarot to gain insights into the deeper patterns at play.
 2. Create a Safe Space: Ensure you have a supportive environment for your shadow work. This could be a therapist, a coach, or a trusted friend who can hold space for your exploration and healing.
 3. Somatic Release: Engage in practices that help release trauma from your body. This can include deep breathing, meditation, or movement. Our bodies hold onto financial stress, and releasing it physically can be incredibly healing.
 4. Grieve Fully: Allow yourself to feel the full extent of your financial fears and traumas. This process can be uncomfortable, but it’s a crucial step in clearing the blocks that hinder your financial abundance.

Healing Your Relationship with Money

Once you’ve identified and grieved your financial traumas, the next step is to heal your relationship with money. This involves transforming limiting beliefs and aligning with a mindset of abundance.

 1. Self-Reflection: Reflect on your current financial beliefs and behaviors. What negative patterns do you notice? What beliefs about money do you hold that no longer serve you?
 2. Astrological Insights: Use your natal chart to understand your financial tendencies. Your second house, which governs money and possessions, can reveal insights into your earning potential and spending habits.
 3. Tarot Guidance: Pull tarot cards to gain clarity on your financial journey. Cards like The Wheel of Fortune or The Ace of Pentacles can offer insights into new opportunities and financial growth.
 4. Affirmations and Visualization: Create affirmations and visualizations that align with your financial goals. Imagine yourself achieving financial abundance and feeling secure and empowered.

Embracing the Journey

Manifesting money through shadow work is not about quick fixes—it’s about deep, transformative healing. It requires patience, self-compassion, and a willingness to face your financial shadows. But the rewards are profound. By clearing your blocks, healing your traumas, and aligning with abundance, you open the door to financial success and stability.

As someone who has walked this path, I can attest to the power of shadow work in transforming your financial life. It has allowed me to heal my money wounds, break free from limiting beliefs, and attract the financial abundance I truly deserve. Wherever you are on your journey, remember that every step towards your shadow is a step towards your light.

By integrating shadow work into your financial manifesting practice, you can transform your relationship with money. It’s about more than just attracting wealth—it’s about healing, growing, and becoming the person you need to be to experience true financial abundance. So, light your flashlight, take a deep breath, and bravely venture into your basement. Your most authentic and abundant financial life awaits.
