Wiccan Healing Story

Share Your Story: Psychics and Intuitive Healers Tell Their Stories

From Erica McKenna

About Me and My Work

I am a Wiccan High Priestess and ordained minister. I have been reading tarot cards for over a decade. I offer tarot card readings via email, and I also do scrying (using a magic mirror) and other magicks. I grow my own herbs and make my own herbal teas both for pleasure and holistic healing.

What Happened

The power of the Lord and Lady never ceases to amaze me. While I have had many experiences in giving readings, I wanted to share this particular story that affected my own life and the life of my child's.

About 6 months after my daughter, Olivia Grace, was born, she came down with a terrible cold. She had a fever, trouble sleeping, coughing, the whole nine yards. As a new mother, it pained me greatly to see my little angel baby suffering so badly. I know it was "just a cold", but still, nobody wants to see their child sick and in pain, no matter how minor it was.

My husband and I snuggled her in our bed, and she was fussing and crying nonstop for hours. Finally, I lit some candles, put on some soft music, and asked my husband (who is also an accomplished magickian and Wiccan) to help me try to heal her. He is very good at removing things like pain or illness, and grounding them. I am more of a giver of light and love.

So we began to pray together, my husband asked the Lord to help transfer her illness to him so he could remove it from her and let it flow into the Earth. I prayed to the Goddess to open up my heart and my soul, and to let Olivia freely take of my healing white light and energy.

Immediately I could feel my heart open, and I could feel the warmth of the Goddess pour through me and into my little girl. Not even a minute after we were done praying, she fell into a peaceful deep sleep, and slept through the night. The next morning, she was completely well, and showed no signs of illness.
