Divine Dichotomy
 
Q: If for every 'good' there is a 'bad' & if all things have a 'balance,'
 then is it fair to say that for every good i should expect a bad 
in order to maintain balance?  And if that is true then ultimately
 does everything become neutral?
 
A: It is true that in life there is a “balance” but looking at it as good vs. bad can get confusing. 
Good & Bad are merely different perceptions of what could be the same situation. In spirituality 
we call this Divine Dichotomy. 
Neal Walsh writes about this extensively in Conversations With God. I suggest reading it
 to know more. Mr. Walsh describes Divine Dichotomy as: 
“two apparently contradictory truths can exist in the same space at the same time."
In more common terms, one man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. 
We come to earth to EXPERIENCE…not to “learn” for in experiencing learning is automatic. 
As far as your soul is concerned ALL experience is a miracle regardless of how unpleasant 
the‘feeling’ that comes with that experience is. 
As a matter of fact the “bad” stuff we may write into our life’s story is what
 your soul is most grateful for. A Master knows this, so when catastrophe comes,
 a Master is unphased by it where an average person would be devastated. 
When I was in discernment I struggled with this concept….
it seemed as though the universe was saying 
“if your happy don’t feel happy, and if your sad, don’t be sad”
 but then what do you feel?
 You feel it all! We all want joy but are of afraid of hate…we all want happy but 
are afraid of sad. The truth is, there is only one emotion PERIOD…only one…
that is love… love is a BIG frequency…THE frequency…..with a huge spectrum of
 frequencies inside it. 
So love, fear, hate, bliss are all small bits of the same MASTER frequency-LOVE.  
A master is in a constant state of “balance” –meaning is fully present 
in the MASTER frequency at ALL TIMES—therefore by-passing the annoying 
“bit frequency” in between. 
 
Perspective: 
Think of your emotions as a pendulum swinging back & forth. One direction is extreme 
overwhelming joy….the other side extreme overwhelming pain.
 If you are much like this, with extreme up’s & downs you are far from a Master state. 
It’s a sign that you are out of perspective with the reality of the illusion of this all. 
Yes these experiences we are having in this life are real….the tragedies are real & they hurt…
there is no denying that….but the “bad” of that is an illusion…
its our perspective that makes a thing bad…or even good. We are eternal infinite beings
 that stretch out much farther than just the person you are in this time & space/dimension. 
Therefore any experience is minute compared to your infinite wisdom & being & therefore 
nothing can shake you. 
The Master is still. Also, negative energy only creates more negative experience—better to be
 positive right away so as not to create more pain. 
Thoughts create your reality. Watch The Secret (www.thesecret.tv) to know more. 
 
A personal example:  My 79 year old Nonna (grandma) who raised me and is someone
 I truly cherish in this world just got diagnosed with breast cancer.
 As soon as I read the words (got the news over email) my heart sunk at the thought
 of her being afraid & in pain and then almost immediately that feeling was replaced 
by this rush of understanding… I instantly & completely understood how her beliefs 
caused the cancer and why it hit her breast…
the opportunity of the clarity of vision she has to heal these issues now made 
me happy for her. Most people die never figuring this stuff out, but her body was kind 
enough to give her a warning, so she can clean her spiritual closet before moving on. 
What an opportunity! It would mean that her next life would be free of the plagues she has
 suffered in this life. Then I realized that my physical distance, our schedules and many of her
 guilt and fear ridden religious beliefs keep us from connecting like we used to. 
Up until I was labeled “psychic” her and I were glued to the hip…I have been sharing my 
visions with her since I could speak, and for much of my life she was my 
only witness/confidant and spiritual protector. When I became an adult and people 
started to “find me out” she loved it! Especially when that led me to wanting to be a nun. 
 A few years later when I realized that the catholic church was merely the front foyer 
of the ‘god’ experience for me & I began to embrace all religions, it devastated her. 
Then when people started to seek me out this time with the label “psychic” 
with no religion… it enraged her. “Saint” yes—“Psychic” no …that’s my nonna!
 Personally speaking, “psychic” puts W-A-Y less pressure on me....and even that label is 
just a cloak....just one of the many things I AM.  I am daughter, I am wife, I am psychic, I am writer,
I am sloppy, I am high, i am lots of things...i am! i am! i am!
I realize that if she died, she’d see past all that crap & we can go back to the way
 we were prior to me leaving the church. There would be no physical distance between 
us as she could appear any time she chooses, we could spend more time together 
then we do now. She’s decided to have surgery and fight it…her call…either way is 
fine by me.  I’m neither happy or sad cause either way there are pro/cons so it all equals
 out in the wash…I’m unmoved. Some can consider that unfeeling…
like I should be crying for days cause my nonna might die….but I UNDERSTAND what that
 TRULY means….so how could I cry? I am still….
if she fights this thing and lives, I can be happy that she lives….if she chooses to die, then 
she lives in spirit, we can hang out whenever she chooses to appear…
so to me she’s alive either way. It’s the same.  It inspires me to elevate my frequency so that
 if she does die I can tap into her easier or if she lives I can send 
her more potent distant healing. It’s all good. No matter the outcome-it inspires me
 to be better.  
Its not that you walk around not feeling….its that you walk around in full understanding
 and therefore there is this sweet calm that permeates every emotion your in….
what you are feeling is what you are feeling and its small compared to what you are 
understanding about the bigger picture (in the Master frequency) 
and so you are calm & chipper & inspired….no matter what’s happening….it’s a calm 
chipper kind of vibe when the pendulum is still. 
 
The Guest House 

This being human is a guest house. 
Every morning a new arrival. 

A joy, a depression, a meanness, 
some momentary awareness comes 
as an unexpected visitor. 

Welcome and entertain them all! 
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows, 
who violently sweep your house 
empty of its furniture, 
still, treat each guest honorably. 
He may be clearing you out 
for some new delight. 

The dark thought, the shame, the malice, 
meet them at the door laughing, 
and invite them in. 

Be grateful for whoever comes, 
because each has been sent 
as a guide from beyond.

(The Essential Rumi, versions by Coleman Barks) 

Spring Cleaning For

Your Soul & Life

Everything you own is symbolic of something. 

Every nick-knack is a reminder of a place, time, person or obligation.

Its great to collect mementos along the path in life, but often the collective energy these objects carry become magnets that pull your mind and energy to the past, people far from you, leaving you to neglect the present & those in the present for you.  The present is all you truly have, for the past is gone.  The present is here—embrace with full participation the gifts of today.  Surround yourself with things that represent the new, the here, the now and the hoped for.

Every once in a while we get cluttered mentally, or pulled away from the here and now.  If you ever find yourself in that rut, it is beneficial to have a spring organizing for your soul & life ceremony.

I am currently in the process of moving and downsizing considerably.  I have turned it into a spell of letting go, weeding my inner garden of the past to prepare for the new.  Old habits, negative emotional and mental patterns, old pains, things that pull me back I’m releasing physically in order to heal the emotional.

This is how I do it—give it a try—I assure you’ll feel awesome.

Music is the key.  Pick music that represents change, letting go or peeling back the layers. Don’t be afraid to dig deep, just make sure its music you really like. For my personal process, I am listening to Fusion--Silence in the Land of Nothing as well as TripleEye’s Neo Album, it’s a free download at www.tripleeyemusic.com  as well as System of a Down.

Heavy, transcendent….it takes you places.

Place old pictures, nick-knacks and mementos of the past in a box with much care & love, thanking them for the magic they inspired in your life.  Place the box somewhere safe & out of the way. 

Then start at one corner of your home and start clearing all the way until your done.  Every possession –pick it up.  Why do you own it?  What does it bring you? Is it associated to your past? If so decide now—can you get rid of it? If not, place it in another similar box. If you feel its time to let it go, and it is of no real necessary use to you HERE & NOW then let it go. Put it in a pile of similar other things that you then give to charity. 

Do the same for your kitchenware & furniture

Go through your closet.   If you wouldn’t want your boyfriend or girlfriend to see you in it, get rid of it.  If you don’t totally love it, if its not totally you, get rid of it.  Make room for the new.

Pick a corner in your home where you let all this stuff pile up. One huge monstrous pile of furniture, clothes, kitchenware, stuff, stuff, stuff.  Let it represent all your past clutter.  Everything added to that pile is another piece of emotional clutter you no longer have to carry.

Then call one of those Goodwill or Diabetes companies that pick it up for you and watch it all effortlessly be plucked from your consciousness as its effortlessly taken out your door.  All you have to do is watch….and breathe….

As Rumi says, “DIE TO THE PAST”

The Bliss is in the present

Be Here, Be Now

& Be Blessed!

Ascension

It’s a wonderfully terrible time for anyone “open.”  Tides change, life changes, deconstruction modes, peeling back the layers, leaving things, leaving people, and leaving ways of life behind.  Like the snake shedding its skin, this is a powerful transmutation.  For some its leaving the body completely (See Death By MisAdventure), for others it will be ascending to a higher vibration on this plane-this is the ascension I am discussing here.

The Goddess Emerges.

How do you know if you are suffering the ascension?  If you feel like you got run over by a train for no reason—you are likely suffering the ascension.

If any of this resonates with you

So your life gets tense…scary maybe.  Disappointments in externals draw you inside.  The succulent distractions are kept at bay—keep it loving and healthy and it refines in this period to something beautiful and enduring.

Getting unhealthy, playing games or toxic attitudes causes it to be ripped from you in catastrophic ways. 

Keep everything light-hearted, loving and considerate of each other, and most people come out way better and stronger than going in.

This can be a very emotional time for many…old baggage and hurts…the stuff you thought you were over all of a sudden rear up again.  It’s ok…as hard as it is, this is the time you can heal it for good.

From now until March 14…any magic, affirmations, spiritual/occult study or meditation, guided or otherwise promises extra potency.  Any prayer, Novena….do it NOW. 

From now until the 25^th we go through an emotional roller coaster—but creatives everywhere will have inspiration like never before.  Artists & Poets Awake! Musicians Awake! Bring out the light & love NOW!  The stuff you create in light now has the benefit of helping humanity.

After the 25^th, assuming you have kept in the light, and worked on your ‘stuff’ all your hopes and fondest dreams should manifest quickly and in miraculous ways!!!

C’mon…a couple of weeks….you can do it!

It starts in the mind

Death By Misadventure

When people don’t want to be here, they don’t want to be here and will go to extreme lengths to get out when they have had enough.  I even read a forum post from a teen that actually calculated how many espressos and/or cans of pop he’d have to drink to die of caffeine poisoning since he had no access to a gun.  Suicide is murder any way you look at it.  If people did to each other, what they are willing to do to themselves, it’s always a cold heinous execution. There is a Karmic consequence to the act of suicide that ripples through the world like a small meteor falling into the ocean would.

Is there such thing as a suicide get-out-of-jail free card?  Sort of. It has been discovered and used mostly by teens-it is ingenious—but it has to stop—yet writing about it plants more of its seeds—but knowledge is power—and I hope this message reaches unwitting parents in time and hopefully saves a life or more.  

Coroners call it “Death By Misadventure”

Spiritually, it’s called “Ascension or Transcending.”

The idea is that you evolve to such a high human frequency that your soul transcends your body—you leave your body.  In your average death, the body dies first…then the soul departs.  With “Transcending,” your soul leaves the body first, causing the body to collapse and expire. Sometimes in this situation another entity will come to replace the vacating soul as we see with “Walk In’s.”   These people wake up “changed” people.  They’re changed alright!

Ascension:  You radiate so high that you transubstantiate your flesh entirely and pretty much…take it with you.  There is no body left behind.  The Virgin Mary did it…she was a master Cabbalist & is an Ascended Master (and probably the one that taught Jesus his tricks.)  Lots of people in history have ascended…lots have.  In these situations, no one actually died, they moved on-whole and complete in the most ultimate sense and therefore, karma free.

Transcending: This is the sneaky door that opens up the ‘misadventure’ possibilities.  In transcendence, you leave your body & choose not to return. It’s always a choice, you can’t accidentally get trapped outside your body.  Your soul is tethered to your body by what psychics call a “silver chord.” 

Most that meditate will experience Out Of Body Experiences…its fun, safe and a great spiritual tool to know.  The slightest twinge, sound or startle will jolt you back inside and awake…you aren’t going to get stuck outside—you will always be brought back in. 

Some people reach such heights of connectedness; they end up spending more time out of body than in—as we see with the world’s great mystics and gurus.  That takes a toll on the body, and eventually the body begins to wither from not being used fully and eventually, during one of the out of body moments, the guru discards the body entirely. 

In this situation, there is no karma, because the act of discarding the body didn’t come through hatred or seeking escape from the world.  This transcendence likely happened over many, many years of disciplined spiritual practice and those left behind celebrate the moment of elevation.  These people usually leave legacies; schools, organizations etc…think Ghandi.

Then there are these wonderfully gifted teens (and I’m sure a few adults) that decide to sneak the system.  They gobble up every book on how to leave your body, often joining some really obscure spiritual groups all to learn the spiritual secrets of ‘jumping ship.’  The difference in the karma comes with their motive.  Their quest has nothing do with God (as with The Gurus & The Mary’s.) Their motive has to do with getting out of this life they hate.  Many of these kids are dark, sad and troubled.  Although they don’t carry the same kind of heaviness that a traditional suicide carries (because there was no murder,) they do carry the sad drifting feel of a wandering soul.  Not a catastrophically bad thing…but not the ultimate reunion the gurus get and only because that’s not what these kids were seeking-so they don’t get it.  They are seeking an escape from life—they want to be a ghost…and so, that’s what they get.  Not the best outcome if you ask me….pretty lonely actually. 

A few months ago a woman came to see me for a reading.  She handed me the picture of her daughter.  Her daughter came in as a white haze (when your average suicide appears grey) yet she still carried a similar desolate quality. I told her of my conflicting messages.  “I feel like she’s so sad she could have killed herself…but she doesn’t appear as a suicide…I’m confused?”

She explained that the autopsy showed nothing unusual in her toxicology screen, no sign of struggle, no pillow or bag over her face-nothing, no heart attack, no vein popping in her head—no apparent cause.  At 10:30pm she called a friend and had a normal 5 min. conversation.  At 11pm her dad found her dead.  She was lying on her back, hands calmly at her sides…her face was red.  The coroner said that the only possible explanation was that she held her breath to death—but in the next breath he said that it was physically impossible.  Before she died, she would have fainted & her body’s natural functions would take over.  T

When they searched her room they found over 30 books on how to have an out of body experience. 

A note to parents:  Please talk to your children.  Please take their sadness seriously.  Please check their Internet use. I have found a whole Internet suicide world full of teens wanting to die. They even have galleries of photos of bodies of suicide victims…one teen site I found boasted a gallery of 66,000 images.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take care of your babies.  PLEASE.

Take them for granted today, and they may fly away tomorrow…..

In Love & Light,

 Just as the ascension started to peak, (see www.whatsuponplanetearth.com)   I began to be inundated with questions about Satan & Demons and began feeling an undercurrent of energy sweeping into the world.  For any of you that have read my 2006 predictions, remember I mention that ALL priests should be educated in exorcisms ASAP. Now would be a GREAT time for that to start.

That being said, humanity, through religion, has been taught to fear him (& his minions) and that has done nothing but give his 'minions' negative fuel.  When demons are clingy and troublesome,  its because people's individual darkness makes them that way.  A demon is a spiritual projection of an internal darkness--guilt & fear/anger being at the top of the list.  A demon's job is to make you aware of your inner dark--once you are aware, and flood it with light, the demon also is filled with light and so moves on.

The world is so full of ambivalence right now--demons are running rampant.  The major victims are all these 'gifted' crystal & indigo children that have been born to unenlightened parents. They aren't taught to spiritually protect themselves and so these kids are walking open doors to the other side.  Any 'darkness' in the hearts of people around these kids are like MAGNETS to these lower realm of spirits.

 Is there a cure? Yes! Love. Turn all fear to love and the world is saved.

 I believe "Sympathy for The Devil" by the Rolling Stones was inspired by Lucifer to help us understand his nature and why he exists. 

The church's description of him getting an ego and rejecting God is an insult to God--because angels don't have egos--only humans do--and God doesn't make mistakes.  Why would God make an angel that's named after the light and reputed to be the closest thing to God, His most beautiful angel to boot—then make him an asshole? That isn't how God works--God doesn't make mistakes. 

What we have done is taken human frailties (like jealousy, betrayal & war) and projected it on God & Spirit.  We assume because we are jerks here in body…they must also be jerks in spirit.  Nope-just here.

Personally I think it helps us rationalize our asinine behaviour.  “If God is at war, then it’ OK for me to be at war.  If God’s angels get jealous or turn on God, it’s Ok for me to get jealous and turn on my friend/lover/family.”

This ascension is to call people to the light--and therefore a shit load of dark will have to be brought to the surface for healing.  A lot of ugly truths will be exposed to people personally, as well as globally.  As I was sharing with a friend today (what actually prompted this article) is that the Age of Aquarius brings about a washing away of old delusions.  If there is a Holy Grail or secret to topple people’s misinformed beliefs, it’ll come out soon.

 The next 6 months will be a purge from humanity.  It'll be a rocky road. To get rid of the world's demons, we need to get rid of all ambivalence, darkness & lack of true faith in people. .........that's no easy job.....whattaya say...can we do it? I think we need a HUGE symposium, priests, shamans, psychics etc  to do a mass world clearing-together....that's a lot of smudge!!!

We’ve been all wandering about in our cozy dark bubbles massed together in one big dark room—happy to not see the truth about ourselves, each other and our lives but wondering why we’re all miserable.  One by one everyone’s inner light switch is being flicked on.  Someone is coming to turn on the light.  These inner moments of truth always come with a twinge of pain.  The truth hurts.

The way I see it.  It starts with poor Jesus. First religion treated him like shit. Then they kill him.  Then a new religion in His name lie about his life, loves and ways by pushing only the stories of his life that make him look like the kind of follower THEY want to attract.  They didn’t change the story or make it up—they just didn’t tell THE WHOLE STORY.  Over time His story got bastardized as bad as Lucifer’s.

In reality, I hate to break it to you, Jesus was probably the modern world’s first hippie.

So to keep you from asking too much about Jesus, they keep you focused on Satan & the wrath of Hell.  Fear Fear Fear….dependence…dependence…dependences…..guilt guilt guilt…..lack of power, lack of power…….turning against your natural instincts for fear of hell….confusing for both consciousness as well as body………all this turbulence in negative energy mixed with the constant thinking & imagining of demons CREATES DEMONS.  In effect religion facilitated the manifesting of a consciousness that created demons.

The practice they have for exorcising the demons they help create works.  But after Vatican 2  (which I refer to as The Smoke Of Satan) the church attempted to make the faith more “digestible” because a better educated public was not so easily spooked anymore.  So they decided to follow the more mainstream Christian practices that played Satan down…they just didn’t really go there any more besides mentioning him in passing.  Old mystic modes of protection were no longer taught to people for fear of sounding too “out there” compared to the United/Anglican persuasions who again don’t put a lot of emphasis on this stuff.

So they create the consciousness that manifests demons, then stop teaching people how to a) prevent them and b) get rid of them.  Now, just like the roach or two that you ignore has led to a total infestation, we wonder why?  Great. So now what?

The bringer of light appears.  One by one people wake up.  Realize they hate their job….that really, on some level….don’t much like anybody they know….at least deep down even if you like them, on some level, you don’t respect them.  Then you learn, they feel the same about you.  One by one it seems everything is rearing an ugly head, then you think, “it must be me. It must be me.”

As individuals we have stopped going within.  Go through the archives of this blog & find the ‘Conspiracy Against Alone’ series I wrote.  I was getting premonitions a year ago about this stuff.  We place all our fulfillment in externals-entertainment, each other—but RARELY do we go within.  Even to pray-we often insist it be in groups.  These meditation groups I’m running are well loved-and helpful & its great to see—but rarely do I see a student that goes home and practices alone.  Almost NEVER.  This has made us DEPENDANT on each other spiritually—and in the end, as with the church, on some level it opens the door to corrosion. Humanity is being flushed down the toilet because we have lost OURSELVES and our individual connection with our inner Divinity in this swarm of parasites humanity has become.

So, making you REALLY see each other with well lit eyes as starkly as you see yourself naked in the mirror with all your imperfections, makes you take your power back.  Makes you go within, because for a long time you haven’t.  When there is nowhere else to turn, you go within. It is THERE that you find GOD.

In the meantime, people going within will be pushing loved ones out.  Marriages and partnerships are splitting.  The book of Revelations describes, brother against brother….this is now.  These are painful times for many, and lonely.  For some its like a whole phase of life is ending.  It’s like everything falling apart for everybody on personal level.  That individual darkness collected leads to mass consciousness of dark…..again creating more and more…lets say it together….demons!

THERE IS NO WAR HERE.

THERE IS NO WAR BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL.

What is happening is that we are vibrating at a frequency that manifests darkness.  All we need to do is evolve to a higher frequency to transcend these things.  That’s it.

ALL IS WELL

Ideally we each get at least one hour a day in solitude and silence to go within and be with God.  IDEALLY.  In today’s busy world that isn’t always feasible.  Between work, work at home, phone, email, friends, family, errands, drama we are lucky to get 8 hours of sleep, much less meditation time.  The truth is, the more you meditate, the better you will handle all the obligations that come with the marketplace. 

As Carl Jung said “if you don’t go within, you go without.”

Still, there are days, weeks etc were there just isn’t enough time.  Sometimes, life gets in the way of good intentions.  The result is that we are left feeling frazzled and pulled in a million directions.  Our pre-bed time becomes a mind race of what you could have done better, or what needs to be done tomorrow.  NO REST FOR THE WEARY!

In these times the trick is to steal minutes of God time where you can.  These snippets of stillness add up, and you will be surprised at how rejuvenated and connected to The Source you will feel. 

TIPS:

v      Say a quick silent prayer every time you get into your car, meet a friend, stand in line, have a smoke, wash your hands….any routine  etc.

v      Practice pink/white light techniques through out the day and when you interact with people.

v      Discreetly hold Chi Kung hand positions while sitting and chatting or watching TV

Let’s be blunt…..there are days when life makes you NUTS or pushes your tolerance to the EXTREME.  We are allowed to get bitchy from time to time, and who could blame us?  Sometimes emotions like anger are productive in that it motivates us by alerting us to things that need changing/healing.  Get angry long enough to act….but don’t wallow in it. By playing your rage on repeat, you get stuck in the moment that upset you…not allowing you to move forward.  That being said…if you are pissed, you are pissed, and pretending not to be is DENIAL.  Honour all your emotions…even the ones you aren’t proud of. 

So how does one honour their not so positive emotions, in a productive way, when the thing that is upsetting them cannot at the time be changed? How do you include your inner self or God in the moments of rage…. where sitting still would be TORTURE and not soothing? By using MOVING MEDITATIONS!

Negative experience traps life force energy in the body parts associated with your stress.  Energy gets stuck, stale and toxicity results.  By moving and using the breath consciously, chi is forced through and out the body. This toxicity is worked out, and new, fresh Chi nourishes the hurt. The infinite power of intention can turn even the most mundane activity into a life altering transformative ritual.

Yoga is great because its hard to do…..the heavy Yogic breath is a little like a tantrum in itself, and yoga really stretches, contorts and moves everything through your being.  Your brain may be upset, but your body will be full of chi, feeling like jello….your brain naturally will calm to match your bodies sudden relaxation.

Walking Meditation: Before departing set your intention.  Tell The Universe what this walk is about, what signs you need for peace and be vigilant! As you walk, be aware of everything you see.  Let nothing be a coincidence, and acknowledge all synchronicity. Connect with every living thing you see(especially plant & animal.)  As your breath begins to deepen, imagine the problem resolved completely….forget how (that’s God’s job.) 

Cleaning Meditation: As you clean, imagine all of life’s clutter and stress being washed from your existence.  Mentally repeat ‘I now clean my mental house’ as you work.

Cooking Meditation: WARNING: don’t imbed your food with anger….what you eat absorbs your energy as its prepared.  Infuse your food with comfort.  As you prepare, cut ingredients, infuse them with how they can heal you, how it’s taste will make you feel cozy and comforted.

Gardening: Imagine weeds as obstacles, and relish in the visualization that as you pull out the weeds, these obstacles too are being removed.  This is actually a form of self-hypnosis.

Bathing Rituals: Hold hands over the water….imagine, call on healing energy to charge the water with your intention (even if its just to rid you of negativity) before you step in.  As you massage shampoo or cream rinse in your hair, imagine all your mental clutter washing away. 

Hair: Holds all your memories….that is why so many religions like Rastafarian or Sikh hold it as sacred.  When you brush your hair, imagine negative thoughts being pulled out your skull to the ends of your hair.  Next time you get your hair trimmed, imagine negative or unproductive memories cut loose from you.  VERY POWERFUL.

Sing & Dance: Shut the door…be alone or in front of a mirror.  Listen to music that moves you, that reflects everything you wish you could say to yourself, God & the world. Then imagine the whole world is watching and LET IT ALL HANG OUT.  POWERFUL process.

Orbs

Orbs are spheres of light that vary in size & colour and seem to hover in the air.  I am hearing more and more from people who have seen them and thought I should include some information for my readers who may have had an experience.

To put it simply, orbs are the expression of light from a spirit.  Orbs can be a sign of fairy presence, angelic presence as well as occasionally the spirit of a loved one, although orbs are usually reserved to those of the higher realms or other dimensions like with fairies and angels. 

Basically a spirit being which cannot be seen by the human eye because of the high frequency it has, chooses to slow down its resonance until it gets to that of light.  To ask it to fully materialize (although possible) is hugely taxing.  Trust me, seeing an orb is enough to stir the pot. 

Most orbs are caught on film and commonly mistaken as ‘reflections’ or ‘water stains.’  Those that commonly see orbs usually do so in nature.  I know of one person though who woke up one morning to find an orb hovering by his bed.  His wife died hours later.  He felt that it was a protective presence letting him know in advance that he was not alone.

I have only ever heard of pleasant encounters with orbs.

What should you do if you see one? Imagine yourself surrounded in white light and then talk to it.  Welcome any wisdom it may communicate to you (usually telepathically) and enjoy its healing loving presence.  Be grateful that you were chosen to experience such a blessed visit from a holy being.

As a kid, I had hoped that God loved animals as much as He does man, but church taught me differently.  I was told in Catholic school that only humans had souls.  I was devastated.  From what I saw, animals deserved souls more than we did.  I was grateful when the universe proved that theory wrong--time and time again. 

Often during a reading, someone’s deceased pets come in, sometimes stronger than deceased loved ones do.  Often on the other side, I have seen pets and newly deceased individuals reunited as well.

The most remarkable experience I have had in this regard happened several years ago in a reading.  A woman came to see me that had just recently lost her dog.  She never brought it up in the reading, I never sensed a thing, and so she left slightly disappointed that her pooch never came through in the session.  She went home and played the tape recording of the reading to her daughter, only to find that no voices were recorded….the only thing audible on the tape was a very loud, clear barking dog. 

That particular reading was done at a spa in the city—no dog for miles.  It was definitely her dog barking on the tape.  She (and I) were astounded!  I have never questioned it since.

Every animal has a certain gift, lesson or medicine to offer.  There is a reason why certain animals come into and leave our lives when they do, and by studying animal totems, one can gain greater insight into the wisdom these beloveds offer us.  I highly suggest the book Animal Speak by Ted Andrews.  I use it as a constant reference every time I have a notable animal encounter.

Today I was lucky enough to read for a little girl who had to put down her horse due to a broken leg. Oddly enough, her mother explained that her daughter woke up unusually blue and ornery before even getting the news.  It was like on some level, she knew something was wrong.  She was feeling the loss before she even knew it happened—further confirmation that they do speak from the other side.  Needless to say, she was devastated.

 By explaining horse medicine to her (assistance in moving forward) I was able to explain how this animal came to her to help her make positive steps forward in great directions and that her horse, now a spirit guide, would always be there to assist her in choosing the best path for her future, and that the horse was happy to be called on whenever she felt she needed help in that department.   It instantly changed the quality of her grief, to know that the horse wasn’t gone—just different.  She was instantly uplifted. 

For those with children suffering the loss of a pet, or those who are having issues moving forward from their own loss, I highly suggest researching animal totems—it will bring you much comfort and added wisdom to your day to day experience.

This psychic gig is an interesting one.  In order for me to serve people across the board, it is imperative that I be non-denominational-for fear of alienating prospective seekers.  In order to better do this, I began to study many religions as well as trying some of their practices that resonated with me—to get a better understanding of the culture, beliefs and to get a feel of what it is to “be” in that space.  This helps me relate to all my clients in a more experiential way. 

What I found is that at the core of all these different belief systems, and I include Atheists in this discussion, the basic principals are the same.  Whatever you believe or don’t believe, believe or don’t believe with all your heart.  What you do, comes back to you.  Be a decent human being, and don’t go out of your way to hurt anyone.  Its how we put these ideologies into practice that differs. 

I have met and read for hundreds of people, and I have been able to fit them into several groups.

1) Angry Asshole.  The angry asshole has deep seeded issues and sounds like this,   “Life sucks.  God doesn’t exist.  If he does exist, I hate him.  He sucks. But he doesn’t exist. I hate the world. It’s evil. People are shit holes and I don’t believe in love. God doesn’t exist, but I hate him.”

2) Atheists. I like atheists- they are a neat group.  Very scientific, they are of the here and now, and work with what is tangible.  For them, God doesn’t exist, but it doesn’t matter-we are human, in a living world—it is here that matters.  They play the game of life in its most pure fashion.  Most are deeply moral, and instinctively have a sense that life is easier if you do no harm, and try to be a decent human being.  I often believe that atheists are so enlightened and have assimilated with the God energy so well, that they no longer need to seek it.   You don’t seek out that which you don’t need.

The only time I feel resistance towards an atheist is when they get the ‘atheist look.’  Every atheist has this same exact expression every time they are faced with a ‘believer.’  Some don’t think they have ‘the look’ but they do, and sometimes I’d like to smack them when they get it.  It’s the ‘you poor deluded thing still needing to believe in Santa Clause…. you are dumb and I have it all figured out’ look.  Then the bitchy psychic in me thinks ‘yeah, well we’ll repeat this conversation on the other side and see how it goes.’  I instantly realize, I’m no less a snob.

3) On The Fencer’s.  We all know one of these, ‘There must be something, but I don’t know if there is.  I hope there is a God, but I’m not sure, I don’t want to be wrong, so I’m going to say that I don’t know if there is a God.  I’m not even sure I care actually.’  These guys are the most benign of all groups.  They don’t know what they believe, or just aren’t interested, so they have nothing to convince anyone of.  Atheists resist the religious because they believe the other is deluded.  On The Fencer’s don’t know what they believe, so they don’t judge the other.

4) Casually Religious.  These guys are happy with what they’ve been taught.  They practice their faith in a traditional yet laid-back manner and don’t care to complicate their mind by questioning or learning anything different.  They say their prayers, may or may not go to church, but stick to what they know.  Most are happy where they are but respect the different beliefs of others and feel no need to ‘convert’ anyone to anything.

The darker side of this group, is the kind of person that rushes through their prayers just to say to themselves that they did it, don’t know much about they’re faith and practices much less anyone else’s but harshly judges every other belief system without knowing a damned thing about them.  That shit really irks me.

5) Very Religious.  These guys are ardent believers and you have to give them a pat on the back for loyal attention to often very strict lifestyles, but this group sometimes can be just as dangerous as they are faithful.  The obvious examples are religious extremists that believe it is their duty to be a pain in the ass to anyone who chooses to believe or live differently then them.  I bet most readers believe I’m referring to Suicide Bombers—nope.  I’ve never been harassed by one.  I have however been harassed by plenty of different Christians.  As a matter of fact, the ONLY harassment I have ever received over my job (there have been a few instances,) was by Christians.  They all quoted the bible, not the Koran, the Bible.

There are many deeply religious that are completely accepting of all faiths, I certainly don’t pool all religious into a crusader category.

Those on the recruit crusade don’t realize that the cultist intensity doesn’t pull people closer to God, it alienates them.  That leads to me the next group, 

6) Out There Spiritual.  This group had religion and a domineering male ruler God concept shoved down their throat too many times.  They saw the dark ugly side of religion and resist it.  They are deeply spiritual and very open-minded but resist anything Church or ‘God.’  They divert their devotion.  Some of them say they resist ‘religions’ but follow ‘gurus’ like one.  It’s the same difference to me.  Some say they hate church for its small minded resistance, not realizing they send out just as much negative energy every time they get their back up when the hear the name God or listen to someone talk of their religion.     

7) Its All-Good.  This is a tough group to be in, but worth it for the personal rewards.  In this group you believe in God-ardently.  You believe that ALL paths lead to God, so its all-good.  This group allows for a very rich and multifaceted practice. 

For example, I personally know that the quickest way to God is to go within.  The same as every molecule is God, and so God is everything, God then is inside me, and by going within, into silence and stillness, I can tap into The Source of me and all.  I can also pray to God directly, from the depths of my heart, which is also God, as is my hand, my foot and my hair.  But to me, God is also greater than my hand, foot or hair, for God is in everyone else’s hands feet or hair.  God is everyone.  Yet God is greater than everyone as well—God is greater than everything.  Because God is everything, everything is a testament to Him (or should I say IT so as not to offend anyone—it’s just a pronoun-get over it.) Anyway, when I pray to God, I speak from my heart and soul as if I’m talking to my most trusted friend and creator and teacher and beloved. 

Sometimes I like to have fun, or need the physical comfort of ritual to compliment my experience of faith.  I do everything from Yoga to private rituals all as a celebration of my faith.  I do Hindu stuff, Catholic stuff, New Age stuff, Santeria stuff, pray to Aliens….I do it all! I love it!

We all need to get over our shit, take a few steps back and chill out a little where our beliefs are concerned.  Hard to do.  Hard to do.  But it’s the only way to breath.

For those afraid of the word “God” remember, not all believers are religious.  Not all believers of a ‘God’ see IT as an old cranky bastard sitting on a cloud waiting to snuff out the world.  Some people’s concept of God is universal. 

And for those who feel the need to convince someone of God…..let it go.  When and if God wants them to be convinced, they will be.  Let people their own.  Believe or don’t believe…take a deep breath people…………..ITS ALL-GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALIENS

U.F.O’s (from enlightened planets) have a keen interest in the development of humanity and are especially supportive of humans working as or for light beings benefiting humanity.  Aliens are especially good at finding places (to work, live or ‘be’) that assist in transcendence.  Every time I need to quest, I ask aliens to assist me in finding the perfect place.  I have never been disappointed.

This prayer can be said anytime, but deeper perspective may be attained if said at night gazing up at the stars.

Past life regressions are fun and can be useful in assessing phobias or behaviour patterns that cannot be attributed to negative emotional content suffered in this life.  For example, a child may be phobic of dogs or water from birth with no logical explanation, only to find out upon regression that a dog or drowning was the cause of their last death.  Once the past life trigger is determined and understood, the phobia will disappear.  Maybe a past life vow of poverty or chastity unwittingly carries into this incarnation, causing issues with abundance or love.  Again once the source of the block is determined, energetic steps can be taken to consciously break the vow, allowing for all of life’s good to suddenly flow that wouldn’t before.

Sometimes the ties to our past lives are really strong, as in some people’s obsession with other cultures far removed from their own.  In this type of situation, past life regression would validate the passion they have. 

It’s fun to hear of the prince or queen we may of been, and we can also consciously “tap into” the knowledge or power we once had, and bring it into our current life.  For example when I was alone in the wilderness, I “tapped into” the inner outdoorsman I once was, to assist me with survival skills I had no clue of, and was incapable of using until I “called” on that part of myself to remember.  I’m still here – it worked!

The same way we can tap into past incarnations, we can also tap into future ones as well, to help us understand our current path. In my case, I have one incarnation left, and in that one, I’ll be starting a spiritual revolution.  This life, is merely the kindergarten version of my next. 

All this being said, one must understand that the past and future do not exist.  They are, on the “grand scheme” irrelevant.  The only “real” moment is the present and it is in the present that we should all be obsessed.  Future focus causes anxiety and past focus causes depression.  Present awareness causes bliss.  It’s good to know about your past, whether through hypnotherapy or psychics, but at the end of the day, it’s now that matters.

Many use their past life obsessions as a form of escapism.  In my readings I avoid the conversation of past lives like the plague. For example, several years ago I knew a woman who was very “disconnected”.  She had a hard time assimilating herself in her family, and then the world.  She couldn’t fit in anywhere as many found her weird. Looking for answers she went to a physic (not me) that told her she was the reincarnation of some specific princess depicted in popular medieval art.  The princess wielded alarming beauty, grace, wisdom and power – something she had very little of in this life.  She became obsessed with this past version of herself, and did everything she could to mimic the paintings she plastered her room with like a morbid shrine.  She even went to a medieval festival and bought herself  “a princess dress” she wore daily.  She waltzed around the house in this garb, and acted and spoke like the royalty she thought she used to be, hoping to transform herself into the beauty queen she felt she once was.  She introduced herself to strangers as the reincarnation of this person – not helping her socially at all.  Eventually, her family, in shear frustration disowned her as they just couldn’t deal with this diluted existence she created for herself.  Most labelled her as mentally ill, something she isn’t.

The reality is, she hated how she looked and hated her geeky nature, and felt like a goddess trapped in a nerd’s body.  By jumping into her past life, she was able to escape the present one – at least when she was alone or being patronized.  In the end, she was alienated and rejected by everyone around her.  Finding out about her past life, destroyed her present one.  Let me tell you, this is a well-balanced universe.  So for every time we were princes, we were also paupers.  Those lives died along with our bodies, and aside from curious entertainment, or the liberation from old vows or traumas, it is not only useless, but dangerous to obsess over what we were or might be.

So if your past life obsession has you embracing a foreign culture to the point of rejecting your current one, you are doomed to repeat it.  In effect by doing this, you are standing still on your evolutionary path.  Have respect and understanding of your interests, maybe honour the culture you love, but embrace the one you were born into now, because there is a reason you chose it in the first place.  Have a “been there, done that” attitude, and move on to today.

Be in this life, be in this moment, and all the rest will take care of themselves.
