Can meditation soothe emotional past trauma?

The Astrological Reading: Ananya, you were born during the sunset, a time of transition. Your Libra Sun seeks harmony, but your chart indicates deep-seated memories held in the "Samskaras" (subconscious impressions). You fear that meditation will make you "experience the grief again," which is a valid concern for someone with a sensitive Ketu placement. The Detailed Solution: Meditation does not make you relive the grief; it allows you to "witness" the grief without being consumed by it. Think of trauma like a "repressed emotional fence." Traditional therapy talks about the fence, but "Yoga Nidra" (Psychic Sleep) allows you to dismantle it brick by brick. By entering a state of deep relaxation between wakefulness and sleep, you can access these memories in a "Safe Mode." This provides comfort because you finally release the energy that has been "repressed," leading to true forgiveness of the past and yourself. The Remedy: Remedy Solution: Meditate with a piece of Rose Quartz near your heart to invite healing vibrations. Ritual: Write down a painful memory and safely burn the paper after a 10-minute meditation to symbolize "Letting Go." Mantra: Chant "Om Mani Padme Hum" to invoke the energy of compassion for your past self
