11.1.11

Today is the beginning of some pretty spectacular energy. Just assume the next year - 2012 has already started today. Glorious change is swirling around us in a once in a lifetime epic volume. Are you getting the drift....Its BIG.

Today, to quote Pedro...."all your wildest dreams will come true!" So, be very mindful of what your minds are saying today because those conversations you are having with yourself....are going to come to pass EVENTUALLY. Is that really something that you truly wish?

If you find yourself struggling...just chant -

I choose Joy

I am a very lucky person

I choose happiness, wealth and health and chant it or all of them - ALL DAY. Don't whistle while you work...chant one of these things in your head.

If you just happened to think about this blog (that has been inactive for years) or you just stumbled upon it...YOUR higher self sent this message to you.

This concludes this message from the THINK POSITIVE THINGS ALL DAY NETWORK!

Have a POSITIVELY GROOVY DAY!

She has been taking a long, long breather. She has been channeling her creative energy into making art and being a recluse. Sometimes, we just need to separate ourselves from ourselves.

I feel big change imminently, although I feel that every year for the past few years during September and October. As usual, my advice is to breathe, smile and really try to see the good in the people around you.

Being intuitive does not mean one is all knowing.

But, if you listen and pay attention, somedays you know just enough!

FAQ

2009-11-08T18:21:00.000-08:00

If you are a real psychic, why don't you fix the worlds problems?

Psychic does not mean "fixer of all wrongs." We all have free will, this allows us to determine our individual paths. There is also a collective free will, not forgetting, God's Plan. These factors determine the greater free will of a group, race, nation, religion, and planet. One individuals free will, or even one whole groups collective free will, would not be enough energy to shift the collective free will of a planet, or God's Plan.

Because we come here to Earth to learn emotional experiences through first hand physical experience, ridding the planet of challenges would be a counter-productive action. Humans learn the most when times are hard, lean and not fun. We have to know the bitter, to understand and appreciate the sweet.

Now, that being said, if an entire country decided to stop warring altogether, at once. Then, and only then would you be able to effectively redirect the concept of war. Even then, you would still have the rest of the planets nations that may or may not be going against your decision, so the ideal of ridding the planet Earth of war, is a distant hope.

To successfully change one nations collective idea of accepting war, we would have to first stop warring each other in our families, in our neighborhoods. We would have to stop warring between our churchs, schools, and HOA"s, just to name a few places we commonly wage war. All that change would have to super cede a major global change in the acceptance of warring over land or societal rights.

So you see, expecting one soul on the planet to be responsible for that magnitude of change is not reasonable or rational. Besides that, have you ever been to an HOA meeting!

If people could just use their abilities to help themselves, instead of destroy others, imagine what they could actually enjoy in their own lives.

Let me rephrase that - if people CHOSE to use their abilities to help themselves...

Sweet Song Birds

2009-11-05T08:18:00.000-08:00

I decided to put up a bird feeder the other day. I have cats, so feeding the birds at my house is tricky business. I was able to find an appropriately positioned limb outside of my bedroom window, where the birds could eat safely. They do tend to taunt the cats, but I figure the cats probably are reaping karma of some kind.

I don't really know why suddenly I decided to feed them. The thought just flew into my head. Yesterday I was writing at my computer and heard the prettiest song coming from outside. I thought I heard birds before, but this was just the prettiest sound. I think whoever was singing was happy. Knowing that, makes me happy. Isn't life a great thing.

The next time a thought comes to you out of the blue, act on it. You never know what kind of melody it will bring into your life!

Something to ponder

2009-11-04T10:11:00.000-08:00

If your vision of true happiness relies on another person witnessing that happiness, is it in fact, real happiness after all?

I read this story on Yahoo News this morning....the Headline reads:

"Giant Crack in Africa Will Create New Ocean"

All I can say to that is, WOW!

Everyone knows life follows water, and it has been told from Spirit that Africa is healing itself! I am not a expert in the subject, but it is pretty safe to assume the best way to heal a country is create a new body of life giving water in it...Especially to a country who desperately needs water, such as Africa.

You have to read the whole story - which talks about the same phenomenon actually "parting the Red Sea."

If these are not changing, historical times, I'm not sure what would be. God may not look the same to me, as he/she/"the One" looks to you, but I think if an ocean appears in Africa, it's gonna be pretty hard to deny someone or something finally has Africa's back.

Wow.

It's your thing

2009-10-23T07:01:00.000-07:00

Any "thing" in life

can be too much of a good thing,

if that "thing"

is the only "thing"

you've got going.

Go ahead, avert your eyes.

Yesterday while waiting at the vet's, I witnessed a truly embarrassing moment. A seemingly pleasant enough man came into the office and asked to buy a box of heart worm medicine. However, as the assistant was ringing him up and logging the meds into his dog's file, things turned ugly.

Apparently from what I and everyone else could hear, he was angry that the vet's office would not transfer his dog's prescription to another vet. Actually, what he was angry about was that they would not write it down for him to fill at an online store. She explained they could not due to the animal rights laws and that the prescriptions he was wanting to buy, may not be legally up to date. She tried to give him a reason behind the policy.

The assistant calmly (kudos to her) attempted to answer his unending questions of why they could not legally do what he asked. Each answer only lead to more and louder questions.

By the time we were, thankfully, taken to our room, the then crazed man was ranting on and on about being "extorted" by the vet's office. Extortion? There are times when the law is the law. No amount of berating an office worker is going to cause the law to miraculously change.

So, today, I read in the paper how threats against our President have gone up four hundred percent. Most coming from bigots who really just hate the fact that he is not white. If that is the case, there is no amount of good that he can do that will change their incorrect thinking. Just like that crazed man yesterday. There was no answer for him. He was yelling to be a jerk. Did he really think that hourly paid employee could change anything for him? NO.

Is hating a person based solely on their origin and skin color, sexual preference, yada yada, going to change anything for you? NO.

Is pretending you dislike that person really about something else other than their race, preference, yada yada, going to dress up the fact that you are simply consumed by hate. NO.

My little dog and I averted our eyes and tried to blend with the wall during the vet office rant. I am now averting my eyes and feeling pretty freaking embarrassed by my fellow Americans.

Four hundred percent?

Is needlessly hating each other making anything in our life better? NO.

Let. It. Go.

What do you see?

An acquaintance came by my house today with his little girl. She looked to be about first grade age. I was outside doing some chores when they drove up. When his little girl got out of the car, she started waving her hands in front of her and asked me..."How did you get so lucky?"

I paused in my chore, and asked her, "Lucky with what?"

Still waving her arms about her like she was conjuring a storm, she said, "All that, back there!"

I followed her gestures, and realized she was talking about my backyard. Some people call me witty. Some people call me cheeky. It really depends on the moment. I chuckled and replied,

"Well, I work! Sometimes - I even work hard. Most of all "that" came from hard work. Sweat. Frustration and a few broken dreams."

She didn't really hear the broken dreams part, because her dad was already ushering her into the house, and rolling his eyes.

I admit, I laid it on a bit thick. A heavy handed tongue is sometimes my forte - depending on the moment. As she went inside with her dad, to conduct whatever business they came over to attend to, I looked at my backyard with a fresh set of eyes.

Instead of a fence in need of repair, I saw beyond into my "ranchetta" sized yard, where a little girl might want to play in the open space. I imagined she would like to set up house in our studio, instead of thinking about how it needed repainting. A thought, which then reminded me, I forgot to order a new pool cleaner. I was still cringing at the thought of having to manually scoop dead worms out of the bottom of the pool, when she and her dad returned outside.

Upon seeing me, she blew out a breath and exclaimed..."You even have a POOL!"

Leaving my cheekiness to myself, I began putting my tools away, and just smiled as I said, "Yes, honey, we do."

See, we never know how other people view our life. Maybe our own view is so obscured, perhaps the first thing that needs to be cleared away is our attitude about our own world. One day I will get to the painting, repairing and worm removal. Today I will just be happy those chores are there waiting for me. They are mine after all. I am grateful. As for the worms, I might just have to leave them. Maybe.

Jarring subjects!

2009-10-14T09:43:00.000-07:00

This story was reported on Yahoo News today...

"Oklahoma woman frees skunk stuck in a jar of peanut butter"

So, who do you feel worse for? The woman or the skunk?

Good Times

2009-10-13T09:54:00.000-07:00

Each person has a good time month in their life, that is special and specific just to them. My month sits smack dab in the middle of October and November. I didn't say it had to be a proper, calendar month.

Looking back over my life, most momentous, life altering occurrences typically fall into my world somewhere between mid October to mid November. Unfortunately, life is life, and life altering includes sad things.

For me, I have had quite a few thumbs up moments, becoming a mother, learning I was a medium, return of lost acquaintances, and many more special memories. The big ones all seem to have happened during "my month."

To balance out the sweet, and the sweet will always be balanced, are those just as painful moments, too. My brother crossed twenty six years ago in "my month." I think that was a crappy moment that balanced out all the good I had experienced in one quick breath.

I sit in my office today looking out at the rain. I see those millions of raindrops coating my sacred space in a nice blanket of energy conducting water. Water being an excellent conduit, is a first class ticket to my deepest wishes. I see those raindrops bringing me happiness, health and positive abundance in every way!

This is a powerful time for me, and the best thing to do when "your month" arrives, is to expect the best. I always say, ask for the universe, at the very least you will get the moon and stars, and that can only be a good thing.

We fell into a honey hole with the weeks of rainy weather we have been getting in the south. Use the gift we have falling in buckets all around us today - make your wishes count. See in your minds eye, each raindrop bringing you closer to your own happiness. The choice is always up to you. Dwell on the pain of life and you will get more pain. Believe yourself defeated and you will not win.

Scrape away the grime, and look beyond the obvious, to see that tiny silver lining and in doing so, you will get more silver.

Don't ask the rain to go away. Pray for more. Let your buckets run over with good times.

Lessons from the eighties crowd.

2009-09-30T07:47:00.000-07:00

Yesterday while at a salon, I was able to enjoy a rare treat. There was the most interesting woman sitting next to me, talking about her long life of eighty years. She has been a working nurse up to the age of about seventy eight and needless to say, she had incredible stories.

Her first job was at the age of twelve. Apparently she was tall for her age and was able to get room and board from the hospital she worked at by saying she was seventeen. She lived at the hospital and began her career in health care washing baby bottles for eight dollars a week!

I was unclear why she needed a job, and a place to live at twelve, but that is not the point of my story, or hers. Many times, she said, " Well, that is what we all did!" "All" meaning, everyone she knew. "All" worked all day, everyday. They all started their living for pennies and were glad to have them. They took care of each other and extending a caring, helping hand was expected, not impressive.

This morning I read a story in the news about a stay at home mom who had agreed to allow a few of her friends kids to hang at her house an hour before school, so their parents could go ahead off to work. So what. How many times did you do that when you were little? You went to your friends house because mom was not home. Sometimes, your friend came to your house because their mom was not home. So what. That is life.

Well, apparently all these obnoxious kids hanging around irked the stay at home mom's neighbor and she complained to the state. Shortly there after the nice stay at home mom gets a nasty gram from the state threatening her to immediately shut down her day care.

First of all, when did she start running a day care. When in this world did watching your friends kids require a permit or license. Remember the old days that interesting nurse was talking about when everyone expected courtesy and a helping hand? Apparently, in 2009 we have evolved so much and are so better for it, we now fine people for giving helping hands.

Let's all say a rousing "Good God Ah-mighty" together, shall we? Then let's just get over ourselves and realize we need to help each other. We all need to have common sense and common courtesy again.

Phooey Pumpkins

2009-09-21T10:04:00.000-07:00

I have four pots on my back patio bought especially for this amazing pumpkin project I decided to build this year for fall. My project was going to be a canopy of tiny Baby Boo pumpkins growing out of those four pots at the four corners of my space.

The vines would grow and stretch up posts and across my lattice to completely cover my patio in a bewitching mixture of green and orange. I was going to throw in some little twinkle lights and shazam- a pumpkin arbor! Well, little did I know, God had other plans for me and my pots. I ended up getting ill with a stomach issue, which left me unable to tend to my pumpkin pots. Although they were watered sufficiently, all but one or two of the vines suffered some ailment or another....

Needless to say, my pumpkin arbor will have to wait for next year. Perhaps I will start earlier with my seeds. Use more compost. Soak the seeds in germinator mix before setting them in soil. Or, maybe I will just throw my leftover seeds out into the yard by the compost bin and see what God can come up with. My idea didn't work at all!

I will however, leave my kinda sad looking pots out on the patio until winter finally arrives. Why? Because the struggling vines remind me that no matter what ideas we come up with, God always has other plans for us...They also remind me that life is not always pretty. We are blessed with flowers - they make us strive to work harder for that reward. On the flip side, life is full of weeds, pests, and foiled ideas or goals.

For me, there is always another day. Always, another spring. Always another packet of seeds full of ideas.

Not to worry

2009-08-19T13:52:00.001-07:00

I have been out of pocket for a few weeks getting some necessary "body" work done on, well...my body.

In a week or two more I will be better than ever and blogging away - until then just roll it with - breathe...fall is coming and the cool air will help us all feel refreshed!

Random...

2009-07-23T21:48:00.001-07:00

I find Twitter to be like a room full of people all talking about themselves at one time..And listening to no one....The sound is deafening.

It is a snapshot of reality. Are we always about ourselves?

And another thing....

2009-07-23T02:35:00.000-07:00

While I am on the subject of positive abundance, joy etc...It would be naive to believe that all of our experiences here on the planet are going to go that way.

Losing a loved one is painful, but Joy can be found in their healing and knowing their suffering ended. Joy can be found in remembering the moments you shared with them...That will forever and always be with you in your heart to call up at anytime you choose. I know that pales to losing your best friend, brother, mother..You can find joy in it.

Not all experiences here are going to appear good to you in anyway, yet, somehow change seems to move us in a good direction, even when we think all is lost.

By asking for Joy, positive abundance and luck, you will call to you the best of every experience you have in front of you... That means, per chance you might lose your job. But unlike another, you are lucky, so you have one waiting on you to step into within days!

The song was correct. We were not promised a rose garden. But God did say he would listen to our prayers, and if you are praying with intention, and open ended enough, he will help you through those tough times with maybe only a little scratch, instead of a total destruction!

I choose Joy, Positive Abundance, and WE are very lucky people!

Shifty Sleep

2009-07-23T01:24:00.000-07:00

I had forgotten how difficult sleep was to grasp and hold onto during the last big shift in the Fall of 2008. Since this new momentum began last week, cutting zzz's has not been so easy.

I feel excited all over again, like it's Christmas Eve and I can't wait to see what the morning will bring. Although, most Christmas' my world - I have a pretty good idea, and I am not the easiest person to spring a surprise gift on. It's a little down side or upside to being psychic, which ever way you see it.

A client asked me yesterday to be more specific about why I constantly hound you guys to chant positive affirmations. I thought I had been clear about how useful affirmations can be, but hey, per chance, not. The timing is appropriate, because spirit had just elaborated on one of the ones, they had been hounding to me...Hence, my hounding to you. See the cycle?

When we say to ourselves, in our head or out loud, "I choose Joy, Positive Abundance, and We are very Lucky People." A multitude of things suddenly begin to happen....

By starting your thought with "I" you immediately link up to the part of you, that part of you that is in closest connection with God, your trusty Guardian Angel and she/he is called to action by the word "I". Think of using the word "I", as putting your car key in the ignition and turning it on.

By using specific, yet broad wording, such as JOY, POSITIVE ABUNDANCE, AND WE ARE VERY LUCKY PEOPLE you are very effectively letting go and letting God...Letting him do his thing!

Let us break it down....Consciously asking for Joy literally means you are telling the universe and all of the powers at hand, aka God, that you intend for only experiences that cause you Joy to come to you. If you are feeling Joyous, things can't be bad, right? And because you are sending out each and every thought with the word "I"at the beginning, you are basically stating that all things following "I" are the only types of energy you allow to experience. Here's hoping they are thoughts of Joy, cause they are coming one way or another.

This might look like in the real world that you suddenly are not really in harmony with that person who is always sucking your energy dry with her/his life drama. Why? Because you demanded JOY and they are not capable of bringing that to you...What to do? Recognize what is happening, and become unavailable to that person.

Asking for JOY in your home, might manifest by way of the kids slowly but surely getting along better...JOY makes life calmer...It makes things flow better. JOY is a good thing!

POSITIVE ABUNDANCE is pretty explanatory. Asking for this is again, a blanket statement, just as JOY. When we ask for Positive Abundance it makes our Guardian Angel/God extremely happy....Because we rarely do it. We ask Him for all kinds of stuff that we think we need and have no clue of the kind of crazy chaos we actually are asking to come into our lives. Of course, we are blindly asking for this when we are forcefully, precisely, attempting to micro-manifest those things we THINK we need in our lives...

Then - we wonder, what the hell?The wheels start to fall off our bus, we run out of gas, the whole place comes crashing down and we drop our jaws and have the audacity to wonder - Where is God? Why didn't he answer my prayer...He did - Rambo. Enjoy.

Let. God. Deal. With. The Details.

Positive Abundance covers everything and it is very efficient...It touches every topic, health, wealth, love, relationships, family, career...etc. Yet, it is open ended enough not to put what WE think we need into it. Asking for Positive Abundance is letting go and letting God, because he is POSITIVE ABUNDANCE...do it often! He knows how to bring us the best possible solution for that dilemma we have been struggling with and He can bring it to us for the best price, best location, best of everything! Did I mention, do this often?

I AM/WE ARE VERY LUCKY PEOPLE is your friend in these wild, wacky, changeable times. If you are the head of the family ( a parent ) use "we". If you are single, use "I". OR, you can say it both ways. Consciously asking for God to bring luck to you is just as good as asking for Positive Abundance.

Asking for Positive Abundace is a warm happy request that will, make you start attracting all kinds of luck to you. Imagine. You might not win the lottery in the morning, but you then again...You might. This statement is again well stated, and perfectly open ended to allow God to do His/Her work in your life. Let your "people" on the other side be your life line. All those "people" are the Angelic energies (God) who you entrusted your journey to upon your departure from the Heavenly hallows into this Earth world, ...Ask them to bring you good stuff and they will. They will bring it to you in a way that you will actually be able to enjoy it.

Asking for Luck to come to you will also keep everyone else's negative stuff away from you. We as a planet are all kind of going through the same thing. Lots of people are spinning off their negative castaway energy, as their Angels work with them. As you think and say your prayers/chants each day (and I would do them repetitively) see your aura filling up with light energy. This will help you to not unknowingly send random waves of "yuck" to your neighbors.

Spirit has been telling me to tell you about the water connection. Asking for anything in prayer/chanting is a form of energy work...Gods energy. Water conducts energy extremely well, so praying/chanting/meditating all while touching water is an excellent idea.

I do not recommend meditating while swimming due to the chance of drowning. If you choose to do your affirmations in a pool - wear a floating device firmly attached to you so you don't go off into a meditative state and drink more water than you planned. Common sense is necessary here...If in doubt, call your fire department and ask them about safety points to remember while meditating in the pool. They are going to tell you not to do it...I agree - just sit in your living room in your easy chair with your feet in a bowl of water - much safer and the same difference.

I personally like the shower for meditative work (again, using common sense and caution), or doing dishes, laundry, or watering the yard...lots of times in our days right now, when we are touching water. You don't have to immerse your body completely in water to reap the benefits of touching the water. On that note, If you have ever almost drowned while doing dishes, laundry or watering your yard, you need to be chanting " I am a Lucky person a whole lot more than you have been, move to a very dry climate and forget the whole idea of water and meditation.

The other thing that happens when we engage our mind in sending out positive requests all day is that we very effectively stop a negative habit we all do - in it's tracks. That negative habit is talking to people in our head about how they have wronged us, hurt us, or how stupid we think they are. Yada Yada. Sound familiar? Yes, it does. Don't lie. Those conversations are the worst thing we could possible waste our manifesting energy on...For one, non of those conversations have a hope of ever being said....The moment is gone, over.

All you are doing by endlessly blabbering on in your mind about it is sending oodles and oodles of negative abundance out in to the "blue yonder" on your behalf...that's right. You may well spend HOURS of your day asking for truckloads of negative junk of all kinds and shape to come to you. Then, you will wonder why you are having such a bad day???

So, what to do. Stop.

If you repetitively chant/pray... I choose Joy, positive abundance, and we are very lucky people - ALL DAY LONG ....Then you can't be bitching at people in your head - now can you?

People...put your key in your ignition, and let the chanting begin!

Now, here is a thought.

2009-07-20T08:40:00.000-07:00

I am not aware of any person who has been able to successfully heal themselves solely through physical actions...Spiritual intervention of some kind must occur for true healing to be had. Even in physical death, a spiritual action occurs to release the soul from a diseased body.

Here we go - wings in and hold on!

2009-07-17T08:19:00.001-07:00

Have you ever taken a ride on a roller coaster and felt the pull of the chain mechanism as you slowly start to ascend up to the highest point? You can feel the track engage to pull you up to the drop off point, and with that sensation, a mixture of both excitement, thrill and dread all kind of swirl together - which of course, adds to the moment!

Well pull your wings in kiddies, and hold on, cause we are in the click, clackety phase of our own roller coaster ride...within the last 24 hours the August shift kicked into gear and we are slowly being pulled into the most perfect spot for our next phase of the spiritual ride.

Are you chanting you are a very lucky person, choosing Joy and positive abundance at all times?

It's a very good idea..like checking your shoulder harness just one. more. time!

Will the "Real" Carla Mae please stand up!

2009-07-14T09:08:00.001-07:00

It has recently come to my attention that there is a chance one or more sites listed on the internet are offering readings with Carla Mae, sites that have no connection to me, the real Carla Mae.

I will be open minded and agree, I am not the only Carla Mae walking the planet. However, if you had a reading or know of someone who had a reading by a person claiming to be me, Carla Mae, Psychic Medium, from Texas and these following things occurred...please notify me immediately at 817-379-2211 or by email at carla@carlamae.com

You or your friend were charged by the minute, and/or through your phone bill.

Your or your friend were asked to or someone attempted to make you a member for a discount to have a cheaper reading with Carla Mae.

You were offered any other service other than a reading to be conducted either in person or over the phone, by a person saying they were Carla Mae. Not including Reiki - which always is performed in person.

You were charged more than you expected to reasonably pay, according to my fee, which is 90.00 for a half hour, 180.00 for an hour, and half price for each extra person in the reading.

And here is the one that chap's my knickers the most, if all of the above hadn't already...

You or your friend were told that you had to pay more money, or buy more services or time, to find out " more " about your session or that you were going to suffer some hardship if you did not agree to the above ludicrous terms. And were told basically a doom or gloom type of reading...I do not give out that type of information, it is negative, and helps no one. I just don't do it.

My whole career I have stood up for clients who have been lied to, cheated, and basically terrorized by criminals masquerading as "psychic's". Real intuitive people who have good intentions would never ask you to do any of the above mentioned actions.

I do not know of a credible psychic - and I know quite a few of them - who charge through a phone line, by the minute.

Mediumship or psychic type of services are not for everyone. Then again, neither is skydiving, eating pork, or joining the Catholic church...

There are many, and I mean many sites on the internet who use my name in the search key words to attempt to filter clients to their site to have a reading with me. To date, most of these sites, have only used my name as key words...so if someone took it a step further, I need to know.

PEOPLE!

PSL: Practical Spiritual Living Tip

2009-07-03T07:08:00.000-07:00

Here is a scenario...It's evening and you are just chilling. Maybe you are reading a book, doing some chores, or just getting yourself ready for bed. Out of no where and for no rational reason, you are suddenly feeling uneasy. You might be feeling so uneasy, that you are actually afraid. You just have that creepy feeling that something is just not right. Maybe it's your imagination, maybe it's a sound you heard outside that caught your attention...Whatever it was that caught your radar, you are anxious.

A great way to deal with this situation, is to immediately invoke Jesus. That is right, Jesus. No matter what religion you believe in or are practicing, invoking Jesus will immediately clear your space. Just ask him to stand in your room with you, or you can ask him to "clear your house." You can also ask the Archangels Michael, Raphael, Uriel and Gabriel to stand in the four corners of your house and banish all negative energies out and away from your sacred spaces.

Your sacred spaces include all those both physical and etheric, so it is a blanket statement. Once you have done at least one of the above, be vigilant and check your doors, making sure a living person is not the reason you were creeped out.

Setting up psychic protection is a real and necessary practice. It literally will help you set boundaries around your aura, your home and your children's aura's (as long as they are not in or older than their puberty years.) Remember, all parent's are their children's aura's guardians until the time when they are capable of setting their own sacred space - which is puberty.

You might choose to borrow a very effective means of protecting your sacred spaces from a group of Kahuna warriors, I was lucky enough to meet them on a trip to Maui. It's a long story but the gist of it is...I visited a beach with an adjacent Kahuna burial ground. Ever "Curious Carla," I foolishly decided to have a little walk through of their sacred plot...It would be full disclosure at this point to tell you that the warriors surrounding the sacred burial ground did, in fact, warn me not to have that little walk through - ahead of time. They did this of course psychically, although I could plainly see them with both my psychic vision and my physical vision.

Note to self: When a Kahuna warrior tells you NOT to do something...listen. I did not of course, and approximately 5 to 10 minutes into my little walk through, every thing I had eaten days before, simply turned to liquid. The rest of this little learning lesson was not pretty and I am certain you get the point. I did. Psychic protection resides in your solar plexus which is really close to your stomach, and intestines. Those organs are very sensitive to changes in your solar plexus.

You can employ that same, effective - yet, non hostile type of defense...Should anyone cross into your sacred spaces, that you have not given permission to do so, or truly means you or your family harm. You can ask your Angelic protectors to activate their solar plexus. Good luck to them. It is safe to say, one is not exactly capable of anything else when they are in the midst of gastrointestinal chaos. You only have to do it once, ask the Angels to cover your property and auras from corner to corner and they will be ever vigilant, until you tell them otherwise,

Note: Unless they truly mean you harm, this does not work on ex-husbands, people you are angry at and the Angels will not cause harm to anyone. Remember - it is protection and not retaliation...you can't use it to get back at people. Try that and I bet you will be the one with GI chaos...the Angels will have nothing to do with negative mudslinging.

Really useful PSL tip's for home security!

August, August, August

2009-07-02T08:39:00.000-07:00

I am sure I have mentioned to almost every person I have talked to about the highly charged month of August this year. It seems to pop up in just about every reading I do and is looming ahead of us pretty quick.

So what is so fascinating about the month of August. It is hotter than hell, especially if you are fortunate enough to live in that ever present dark red blob on the weather man's map.

By August, every speck of fun summertime plastic is whisked off the stores shelves and crammed with spirals, #2 pencils and rulers in preparation for the first day of school in the "month o heat."

I personally start making offerings to the Fall Gods by turning my AC down to the lowest setting, and cooking up boiling pots of chili, chicken and noodles, and anything and everything pumpkin flavored. I do this in hopes the Gods will smile down on us, pleased with my scrumptious bounty and allow just one tiny little cold front to blast its Canadian way into our lives once again.

This August is shaping up to be all the above and more. If you aren't already chanting "we are very lucky people" like a bingo player waiting for her last, and winning, number to be called, then I HIGHLY recommend you start. We have a wonderful opportunity presented to us this August...It is already here - actually.

This golden opportunity is the small window of possibility. ANY possibility. You choose. What will it be for you this August? A new life? New career? Financial freedom? Health? Once and for all leaving depression behind you in a cloud of dust? Aim high people, this would be the time to go for it like you have never gone for it ever before. Assume you have absolute momentum behind you, because you do.

You have a few weeks to get it straight in your head...Really get it straight and clear...what would make you so happy, so content, so at peace, that you would be living a happy, joyous, abundant life?

Don't expect grilling at my pool this year. I'm thinking big bowls of chili and cheese noodles, stick to your ribs cornbread and pumpkin cake all sprinkled with "We are very lucky people" is just what the doc ordered for my fourth of July!

It's good mojo to make the Fall Gods smile down on us!

Go on, take a deep breath and just go for it!

Getting to the heart of it all...

2009-06-26T20:35:00.000-07:00

I have heard of at least five, if not more, people that I or some one close to me personally knows who just suddenly crossed with a random heart attack. The most recent and not so personal victim is the ubber famous MJ. Why are seemingly healthy 30 - 50 year olds crossing with such massive and sudden heart attacks.

I am not certain if there is just one answer to that question. I will say that this energy shift is proving to be quite difficult for some, and it might be affecting some of us in the very core of who we are...our hearts.

I do definitely believe it does demonstrate to us, especially those of us in those age ranges, that you just never know when you are going home. On that note, hug your people. Tell them how important they are. Be kind to that person behind the counter. Make the last word you say be of love and tolerance. We just never know what the last word we say may be.

Good things, great things, Joy and Abundance!

2009-06-24T09:48:00.000-07:00

I am getting lots of phone calls from people telling me their lives are snowballing into the chaos. It seems this has really taken a strong turn in the last few weeks. You might be thinking to yourself that everything around you is falling apart. In reality, what is happening is that concept I always chirp on about, manifesting with our thoughts...that one, well it is really proving to each one of us exactly which way our thoughts flow.

If you are seeing that your life is falling apart, bit by bit.

Immediately start chanting "I am a very lucky person!"

Quite literally, your negative thoughts are forming around you - which makes your life begin to fall to pieces. The problem with negative thoughts is that you never know how they are actually going to form here in the physical realm. You might think, "Nothing ever goes my way..." And, then you have a car accident, or lose a promotion to your co-worker. The universe/God hears things literally. They can only send you what you ask for. In this case, they will send you all things that do not go your way.

Sarcasm does not translate to the other side. Wipe that from your character, if you truly desire joy and positive abundance to come your way. The law of attraction is actually in the Bible several times. The Secret was simply a trendy way of repeating what God told us in the beginning.

Which is: Matthew 13:12

For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

On the flip side of that, your life may well be going better for you now than ever before...this is because you are keeping your thoughts in check and/or chanting like there is no tomorrow. If you do realize you are thinking negative stuff or worrying, just stop yourself and begin your good stuff immediately. Its all about balance and making sure you put more positive thoughts out there into the cosmos than negative. You win, if you do!

My best advice is to keep chanting "I am a very lucky person, and I choose Joy and positive abundance." Therefore - you shall have Joy, and be very lucky. Everything else in your life, will fall neatly and nicely into place.

Happy blue morning!

2009-05-29T07:46:00.000-07:00

When I was a kid on the way to school, I would cut down the alley. The woman who lived behind us grew morning glories on her fence. I used to love to see those big blue flowers on her fence. There is an unconscious sense of correctness when nature is healthy and doing its thing.

I think flowers are the way plants smile. The happier they are - the more flowers we see.

Are you wearing a smile today?

PSL: Practical Spiritual Living Tip of the Week

2009-05-28T11:34:00.000-07:00

Meditating in the shower is an excellent way to amplify your connection to the other side. As water is excellent at conducting energy, it will help you connect into a state of zen - faster and stronger, giving you a shorter than normal, but powerful meditation.

Im sure you will want to just take this from me...mind those curtains before you do this type of meditation.

It does tend to detract from your zen like state when you realize that fresh from the shower, still talking to your guides, you have travelled into your bedroom and are putting deodorant on in front of a completely open window...

Hello...Neighbor. Awkward.

Here is a thought..

2009-05-27T21:00:00.000-07:00

Some of the best messages from the other side are the ones we needed to hear.

Not the ones we wanted to hear.

Expect nothing, so you CAN hear what is being said.

Wacky wonderful week stuff.

2009-05-27T19:48:00.000-07:00

This is such a fascinating time to be alive. This week I have met the most interesting people. I have heard the most interesting stories about those people - and the week isn't even over yet! Amazing things are going to happen tomorrow.

It's not going to just be a "pay your phone bill day!"

Can't wait!

Infinity

2009-05-27T07:31:00.000-07:00

August has been coming up in sessions quite a bit since the first of the year. Spirit keeps telling me and my clients that August will be a big month. If you know a smidgen about numerology, then you know that eight, sign for infinity, is considered to be the most powerful number. I have heard it is the number most associated with survivors, and for the most tenacious.

Spirit has also likened our reality to a head of hair. The earth is the head, we are each a strand of hair, sharing the same DNA. Due to the unprecedented shift we are all undergoing, our strands of hair are all in the same cycle. That means, we are all essentially going through the same core experiences.

I am drawing from this information that regardless of our astrological sign, our birth date, times, and other factors, we all have a number eight influence in our own life. I like being a survivor. I like being tenacious. I like having the most powerful number supporting me. Do you?

Good times. Great stuff. Unrelenting Joy.

Wondering, pondering.

2009-05-26T17:34:00.000-07:00

We humans think we are so evolved.

We think we are so superior.

We think that having opposable thumbs give us so much seniority.

Yet, my little ten pound dog is smart enough to guard her source of nourishment with a vengeance, that source being me. She protects her home like she has jaws of steel, not tiny little crooked teeth.

Humans, on the other hand, intentionally detonate nuclear missiles into the source of their nourishment...Humans are so short sighted, they actually will expose their home to deadly radiation under the guise of protecting it. Hmmm.

Isn't that interesting.

He approves.

2009-05-22T15:02:00.001-07:00

When you are a medium people just tend to find you, everywhere you go, those people might be living or not. Once at a very posh spa while getting a facial, I suddenly began feeling melancholy and sick to my stomach all at the same time. It turns out, I was channeling the estheticians mom who had crossed over the year earlier with cancer. My facial was supposed to be my down time, but this woman's mom knew I might be the closest avenue to talking with her daughter, and she definitely took the on ramp.

I channelled, she cried and neither one of us will likely forget that sunday when she came in on her normal day off, at a time that she normally did not work at, and ended up with me on her spa table. It's the way things work around me. Today a similar thing happened. I had promised a couple of hairstylist readings the next time I was in getting my highlights darkened. So, as I was in the chair, I was reading away for the girls.

I am so used to doing my thing, whenever, wherever, it's no big deal to me. What is and has always been a big deal is the way spirit is able to bring messages across to my clients. So, there I am reading for this woman, and her dad is talking to me. He didn't immediately come through, he was reserved and waited until the very end to talk to her. He showed me how he crossed, described himself to me, and then he did a very peculiar thing. He showed me a dollar bill and pointed at the pyramid.

I asked her every possible question about pyramids that I could think of...no, no, no. Nothing rang a bell for her about pyramids. They were obviously not Egyptian, neither of us could see the connection. So, I said, well - you know just pay attention if someone mentions a pyramid to you. I don't know what it means. We were both okay with leaving the message at that. BUT, her dad was insistent on pointing to this dollar bill with the pyramid...

You know messages from the other side is charades sometimes. I am not all knowing, and have no idea sometimes what they are trying to make me understand, or to convey to my clients. Often, time and sleeping on it are the only remedy to figure out what they were trying to get me to understand.

It is frustrating to me to not get what they have traveled so far to say to my clients, so I kept thinking, and asked both women - what does that pyramid symbol mean? Finally, I get out a dollar bill so we can further inspect what her dad might be pointing out to her. My hairdresser had finished her thing on my hair, and I was under a cap cooking. She whips out her laptop and types in the lettering around the pyramid symbol and God bless google...the pyramid name literally means "He approves."

I would never have known that had she not googled it, and my clients eyes really said everything. I asked her if her dad was a non verbal guy...yes. Did he never voice his feelings..no. And, she mentioned that he was a farmer who carried the farmers almanac with him. He lived by it. Well, the farmers almanac is full of symbolic meanings, it is the oldest metaphysical, not so new thing, being printed. It obviously was easier for her dad to show his emotions for her by a symbol than actions. HE knew what the pyramid meant, we just had to figure it out!

We struck a bargain. I gave her the dollar that we used today, and she let me use the symbol in my readings...that's a good bargain. She is going to frame her dad's dollar. We need to remember, things are not always what they seem in this world. Dig deeper - that pyramid you see in front of you may be much more than just three sides.

Spirit chirpings!

2009-05-21T16:29:00.000-07:00

I was asked this question today..."Why would a family member on the other side give "general " information in a reading about their loved ones, their lives, their crossing? Well, they do use our life information as data to get our attention. Humans are by nature selfish and the other side knows, there is no one that we humans like to hear about more than ourselves. That is a blanket, yet, totally true statement.

The other side to that statement is that after a while, the other side quits playing the reading game and will begin to deliver what I call non emotional information. There is not emotion to the information because the person going back over and over again for the reading does not have a real emotional stake in the reading or information.

Do our family members have better things to do on the other side than talk to us at our whim...YES. However, if you are grieving and in true pain over the loss of a family member, then I think they do everything to help us heal. That is until, we either start abusing the connection, ie...repetitive readings, or we lose our emotional attachment.

Mediumship or other types of readings are not meant to simply entertain us, they are meant to help us when we need it the most to find our direction. Wanting constant information from the other side and needing healing are as far away from each other as Baptist and psychics.

There is no negative emotion on the other side. Yet, the other side are our teachers and they can be quite callous...they know when enough is enough and you can't fool them - they always know a person's true intentions.

Nope!

They remember the mighty knight that slew the dragon and saved the day!

It may only take ONE act of bravery to turn your story into a fairy tale, too.

Girly ideas.

2009-05-18T11:39:00.000-07:00

For many years I have used the nickname, "Psychik." Those who know me, know, I do not take myself or life too seriously. I enjoy using "Psychik" to identify myself to bring out both obvious aspects of myself. First and foremost, I am a total girly girl and two, I have claimed a powerful part of my soul, my intuition, and had the complete audacity to actually use it to identify myself as a person.

Being a woman and intuitive are who I am, there is no turning away or use in trying to not "be" either one. My reasoning, I might as well be both to the best of my abilities. I throw tea parties, for no reason. My nails and toes are always painted. My garden screams, "A woman lives here who loves flowers!" And, it is not a tidy garden either, I like to let nature be nature. Sometimes, as in life, the garden is not always ruly or attractive. I purposefully let one part of my garden stay wild. It reminds me that life needs to ramble and that I should garden and live along with God, not without him. Who am I to yank up every seedling out of my beds, they might be someone else's great idea, just not mine.

I have a beautiful Virginia Winter Creeper rambling it's way across my back patio. I love it. It makes me feel like I am living in another time, in a secret garden space full of magic...and it sprouted all on it's own. Who knew? One little weedy vine would bring me such joy. Last week, I overheard a development crew next door warning each other "not to touch that poison oak growing up those trees..." I smiled to myself, as I followed their pointed gloved fingers to another Virginia Winter Creeper Vine.

My psychic side is connected to my feminine aspect as well. Not forgetting intuition is also our connection back to God. Many years ago I received the message from Spirit that we were all, as souls, over many lifetimes, moving towards opening up that most feminine side of us. That part of us of quiet power.

Without regards to whether we lived our human lives as a man or woman, we were on a soul's journey to find our ultimate femininity. This concept makes some - usually men, very uncomfortable. Spirit was not saying feminine energy was better, but they did most definitely say the feminine, was what we as souls were moving towards claiming. No person can argue, woman have been repressed, humiliated, controlled and discounted for far too long.

God created man and woman. He gave woman a tool of creation. We women come here with an actual tool, designed to create. I have told many a client, "You came here with a uterus. God recognized that you were an excellent creator in all aspects of your soul. He doesn't give those out to just anybody!" It is a bit ostentatious of man to then alter the manner in which God meant for woman to be. Just like in my garden...God has his own ideas about our reality.

My theory is then this: If as a group we have repressed the embodiment of our soul which exhibits our raw feminine nature. The very nature of our soul that, per spirit, we are all motivated into reclaiming, then no wonder our spiritual journey has been so difficult...We are denying it on a conscious level by allowing the living women of our planet to continue to be repressed.

Interesting.

Free our women. Free our souls. Remember our true nature. Live in a garden of joy with God.

Go ahead. Ride the milky way -

PSL Friday

2009-05-15T07:39:00.001-07:00

PSL tip for friday:

The next time someone acts so far out of character your first reaction is to drop your jaw...before you say anything in response...Stop yourself from reacting to their most likely negative action, and find the humor in the situation. There is always humor in every situation. It may be strange humor - but it is there.

Do not give them the response they are looking for ...shock them with humor. The levity will immediately redirect and diffuse their energy and you will take control of the situation. You will be showing them your master.

A master knows that we are all learning, and even those jaw dropping moments are just moments, not forever. So, the next time someone drops the bomb on you, find something to laugh about...don't laugh at them ....just the situation!

Those famous webs...

Today Yahoo! reported that 200 new species of frogs have been discovered in Madagascar. I find this terribly exciting and fascinating! What a huge coincidence that we, as a planet are going through the biggest metamorphosis since the stone age, and look at there. Two hundred new frogs!

Frogs are the universal sign for metamorphosis in my readings. The native Indians link their energies to the moon. With out a doubt, they are the premiere symbol for fertility.

Ted Andrews in Animal Speak, says "The frog is the totem for metamorphosis." We humans, just as the frog, are going through the beginning stages of transformation to our true form. Just as they turn from tadpoles to leggy leaf hoppers. We are turning into peaceful light beings in touch finally with our true spiritual essence. OK, admittedly, the process may be different...then again - who knows ;-)

It is easy for people like myself, who have spent years honing their spiritual connections to flippantly say things like...."Trust, and the answers will come." Or something like I read this morning, "Heaven is here on earth..."

I would imagine that those comments do nothing for a person who is trying to keep their head above water, and the bills paid. Times are tough right now. Hell, they are tough even when we aren't in the midst of a huge earth changing time. So, I see there is a need for raw spirituality. The real stuff. You need to hear something that will help you fix your problems. You need something that will help you change your life, so you CAN realize your dreams.

Telling someone who is new to spirituality and trying to keep all their family, bills, health and sanity taken care of, to go within. Is pointless, until they knows what "within" is.

They are going to ask, " Go within? Go in, where?"

I get it. There are steps to spirituality. Just as with everything else, you need to start out with the basics and move on from there.

Eventually, you will understand that "Go within, to find heaven," means, stop worrying. Clear your mind. Let go of the fear you are feeling, probably consumed with and you will feel that inner calm again. It is very easy to let go, once you learn how to let go.

So, here is your easy Practical Spiritual Living, or PSL, 2 minute exercise for the day.

Put your feet flat to the floor.

Put your hands palm down on your thighs. Close your eyes. Using your imagination, (and yes, you do have one and yes, you can visualize this in your head.)

Use your imagination to see in your minds eye a bright, white field of light in the air above your head. See that light as wide as you can see, and as high up as you can see. See it filling every space above your head. Now, see that white light begin to pour into your head, down into your body, imagine it going all the way down your body and into the ground through your feet. See that white light grow like roots, as far and wide as you can see into the earth. Let yourself relax into that feeling of being totally consumed by that white light.

Now, see the light begin to travel back up through your body and into the heavens above. Sit here for just a minute or two and see the light traveling through you, moving from the heavens through you and back into the earth.

Now, take a deep breath...and open your eyes...you should feel completely calm...grounded between heaven and earth, in the Light of God.

See - PSL - something you can use in just two minutes, sitting at your desk. Use it freely, as many times a day, as needed.

Never say "Uncle.."

There was a person in my past who once told me...

" NO one will ever care about what you do. Walk away from it. "

I prove that person wrong everyday.

Do not ask for your adversaries to be removed from your life. They are in your life to move you forward. Like the current in a river, they will push you past those murky points in your life. Beyond the chaos, a calming pool of accomplishment will be your soothing reward for your tenacity.

Lunch with the Head Chef

2009-05-04T07:31:00.000-07:00

A man goes into the same restaurant every day for lunch. He orders the same item everyday, with a glass of iced tea. Immediately upon receiving his plate of food, he reaches for the salt and pepper, seasons his food and eats his lunch.

He is a man of routine. He doesn't like change. He likes the eatery, but some days the cook does have his off days and the man ends up with heartburn.

Years later when he crosses over he is talking to God about his accomplishments in his life, or better yet, the lack there of. He asks God why he never sent him better opportunities. God tells him, he sent him plenty. He asks God why life never seemed to go his way, God tells him, he set up a perfect path for him. God tells him he needed to trust more.

He reminds the man of his daily lunch ritual. He points out to him, everyday, no matter what you ordered, you immediately seasoned it yourself, before tasting the food. You gave no thought about the kitchen's knowledge or training on food preparation...you altered every dish they brought you.

The man asks God, what does lunch have to do with our conversation? God tells him, you did the same thing to everything I ever created for you. Immediately upon receiving it, you altered it before sampling the experience I prepared for you. Had you just left things alone, you would have enjoyed them so much more, and you would not have experienced so much heart...burn!

When opportunities come to you, trust they are perfectly created for you by God. Taste them. Savor them. Enjoy their beauty!

Years ago a documentary/expose was made about the New Age movement. Several groups of people were followed and their belief systems were exposed. Some were into Buddhism, some were into Metaphysics, other's into their own spiritual new age journey. All belief's discussed were considered to be fringe religions.

The interesting thing about the whole expose was, in the end, the segment host came to one conclusion. His conclusion:

No matter what type of creed, religion, ritual or crazy belief these "fringe" people were following, it appeared that they were all...happy! Despite their dabbling in the occult. Despite their seemingly devilish worshipping and wayward paths, they all were content in their lives and happy to be.

They lived lives of tolerance, allowing others to live and let live. Judgement was not a part of their character. They all seemed to just live joyous, simple lives.

It is interesting to me that today it appears those people most upset by the new energy, that seems to have infected the whole planet, are not those living hedonistic life's, but those who follow hard core fundamentalist religious doctrines. I am thinking they might be able to learn something from the heathens of the world.

Caution is a good thing...but people please get a grip!

This is from Yahoo News this morning.

"From Egypt's order that all 300,000 pigs in the country be slaughtered to travel bans and putting the kibosh on kissing, the world is taking drastic — and some say debatable — measures to combat swine flu.

Egypt ordered the pig slaughter even though there hasn't been a single case of swine flu there and no evidence that pigs have spread the disease. Britain, with only five cases, is trying to buy 32 million masks."

Absolute fear is the only thing powering these actions. It's a flu. It is not a disease that will melt your flesh. We have very good hospitals. It is not a totally fatal virus. You can live through it. The flu kills people every year without mass slaughtering of animals. Yeah, it looks like many will get sick with the flu - but that does not mean the end of the world is here. Nor does it mean that all who get it will die.

Take a breath. Wash your hands, often. Calm down. Armageddon is not here. Be reasonable and rational.

I'm cutting you off!

2009-04-29T10:39:00.000-07:00

There are moments that we all have which cause us to have butterflies in our gut. Those flutterings of uncertainty, angst, or flat out excitement. Most of us try to do anything to suppress those moments of awareness, which is exactly what they are. Intuitive realizations of the possibilities of something good coming to you.

It makes me wonder why we rush to suppress them? I think it is so rare for us to have really good auspicious moments in our lives, when they do happen, we simply may not know how to deal with them.

Of course, fear adds it's own dark energy to the mix, and poof - we have drama. Spirit just told a client that her beast ( fear ) has been fed well over the years. Here is a concept for you to think about, how about we all refuse to feed the beast. Just cut him off. Refuse to accept any negative emotions to damper the flutterings of beautiful butterflies in your life.

We can create beauty and prosperity with wonderful possibilities.

There is no swine here.

2009-04-28T09:09:00.000-07:00

What do you think could happen to our world if we expected the best to happen. The best in everything we perceived in anyway? We would be stepping out of that all too familiar energy of fear and into the realm of possibility.

Expecting the best means we are choosing love, joy and positive abundance. It means we refuse to continue allowing fear based ideals to rule our reality. So, instead of listening to the news about how bad the swine flue could get, expect it to fizzle out and go away. Expect our bodies to no longer be hospitable hosts to it, and it will go away.

We are in the dawn of a time when we manifest so quickly and so rapidly, we can manifest pure joy, pure good. We can choose light.

It's all downhill from here! Maybe.

There was yet another ramping of energy last night. However, there is a difference in the ones we are currently feeling and the ones we have felt earlier in the year. That's right peeps, they are feeling better! Everybody clap and thank God!

You might be seeing evidence of these lighter energy nudges, by the stuck feeling leaving your life. If you have been feeling like you really needed to get up and do something, channels will start to open up that will allow you to do so.

I am fully aware that I am sounding a bit horoscope-ish lately. I think I made that word up, but just believe me, we are all feeling essentially the same stuff. I will let you know when these little energy alterations occur. I think it will help us deal with them better. It's what I do.

Good stuff. Great Stuff. Life is better every moment!

Wacky White House Stuff - revised

2009-04-21T07:25:00.001-07:00

I had THE all time craziest dream last night. I dreamt that I was at the White House touring it for ghosts.

Do they have ghost tours at the White House? Any how, I was making the bed of one the guest rooms, and The First Lady was sitting beside me. She told me she was pregnant. She was so excited and I couldn't figure out why I was making the bed??

She asked me what I thought she was having and I said girl - but that babies often feel like girls to me.

My dreams sometimes can be prophetic, but not always. How fun would it be to have a First newborn again. Especially for the Obama's! That would be one special First baby in many ways!

Once, I dreamt that my sister was having a boy and that she kept taking him out of her womb and playing with him during her pregnancy, in the dreams I would tell her to leave him alone and let him get bigger. She ended up, indeed having a baby boy. And I just confirmed she had at least six if not seven, sonograms. I joked her baby was the only child to have a cell phone before birth.

We will see what happens in the White House.

Note to self...Don't eat Banana Nut Cherrios before going to bed!

Dibs on driver side!

My guardian angel just whispered to me that she will be driving the bus today.

So I guess, I will do a puzzle and listen in?

This could be very interesting!

And we're pausing...

2009-04-20T09:42:00.000-07:00

Today is a pause.

After the rush in energy this weekend, you might be feeling a bit hungover. Just a bit tired.

Relax and let your workday unfold.

All the great ideas that came to you over the weekend are still valid and still as great as yesterday.

Let them brew.

Have a monday.

While you chant-

'We are lucky people, choosing joy and positive abundance in all ways!

That moment!

2009-04-19T10:42:00.000-07:00

We can talk about when things get better, and wish for "that moment" to hurry up and happen. Then when "that moment" actually arrives, we realize, there was no way to fully comprehend how great "that moment" was going to be, until it really did happen. Why?

Because we weren't there yet.

Shall - we stop anticipating how moments will be, just expect the best and then let life happen.

Rain drops on our soul!

2009-04-17T06:22:00.000-07:00

It's raining in Dallas today! Which will amplify all energy we are feeling. Water conducts energy very well, and with the already pumped vibes we had going, it will definitely not be a boring day.

Spirit tells me this rush should continue at least through the early part of Sunday. That translates to being able to get oodles accomplished, that is, inside at least! If you are not in a place that is raining, no worries. You will feel it too, just a bit watered down! ; )

You might find your self feeling very creative, go with it.

If something is irritating you. Remember, all things are amplified. Pour yourself something soothing. Just breathe and relax.

If something makes you happy, it's gonna make you really happy!

You never know what this weekend and April showers will bring, so grab your boots and get to it!

Did you have an overwhelming feeling to face north today?

Types of People

2009-04-16T08:33:00.001-07:00

As this new energy reveals it's self, there are clear lines being formed, which are marking the types of people each one of us are choosing to be. Have you noticed these changes? Are you defiant and resistant to the change? Finding yourself kind of in the middle? OR, are you open and excited about the incoming energy?

Remember that song line, "Stand in the place where you are?" That is exactly what we are all doing! Taking stands. There is no right or wrong...it just is. Our world rules are changing, we are closer now than ever, to remembering who we truly are as souls, not humans. What would life be like, if we had no limitations to our awareness? Pretty exciting!

My new speaking series," The State of Our Soul" begins Friday the 24th in Dallas, at the Cathedral of Light. It will be all about the great re-veiling of our reality here on planet earth and about the four sides to our planet. Four sides? What does that mean? Planets are round! Yes, but the humans that inhabit the planet have dimension, and we will be talking about those dimensions and how they affect us all.

To find out how this is and will affect you, come see me at the Cathedral. If you are out of town, don't fret. I'm working with Spirit to put this information into book form, and I will be coming to a city close to you soon.

All Hail the Popa!

2009-04-14T13:14:00.000-07:00

I originally wrote a post about my Pope Rose in March...As you can see, my beloved rose is alive and doing very well!

We are all, well on our own way, to thriving above and beyond our expectations too!

See...We can take a pruning and blossom!

Original post.....

I have a rose bush in my garden, named and propagated for Pope John Paul II. I call it the Popa Rosa. It is one of my most prized possession's. It's bloom is bold, creamy, white and smells divine. It makes me happy to see it proudly displayed in my humble, little garden.

Last year, despite my fussing and spraying, the Popa was plagued by one problem after another. Although by fall's end, it stood a towering six feet tall, black spot had ravaged it of it's leaves, and to say the least the Popa was not looking so rosy.

So, reluctantly in late January, I cut him back. As I was trimming off the diseased branches, it did occur to me that perhaps, I might be cutting back just a bit too aggressively. But no matter...I had to take some drastic measures. The Popa was not going to be well again this year, without intervention.

You know in horticulture, cutting back an ailing plant will cause renewed growth and vigor. So, I cut back the Popa and waited. Today, just weeks after it's shearing, it is growing back with gusto! Even the thickest, woodiest branch, although reluctant, finally put off new shoots, and I am happy to say, soon I will be smelling it's divine bloom again.

On the other side of the fence, are three rose "trees" that are equally growing like crazy. First glance would make you think that they are healthy, happy and strong. Yet, I noticed aphids and white flies on them yesterday. They too, just like the Popa are needing some TLC and some pruning, so they too, can thrive through the summer. If I leave them, the beasts that are using them as a food source, will destroy their blooms and leave them ailing.

Life is mirrored in the garden. Just like our plants, our life can sometimes look so grand to the casual observer. Unless skilled to see the subtle signs of disease, no one may notice that your life is growing out of control, yet diseased and unhappy.

At first glance, the sudden shoot of a of a rose bush, may appear impressive. Grand lifestyles can be just the same, outwardly impressive, but in need of pruning, to bring the whole into balance.

It makes me wonder this symbolism of the garden. Did God see our garden we have all grown here and in his wisdom, knew we were all in need of pruning, some needing more pruning than others. Just like the woody, oldest branches of a rose, people, no matter how set in their woody old ways, are always capable of new growth.

Just like that beautiful rose bush that was trimmed back to just ugly sticks a month ago, it now is covered in vibrant growth, and ready to take on an new year of blooming. So shall we all!

OMG!

Today, Good Friday, marks the beginning of THE most celebrated mediumistic event in history. That event was Jesus returning after his physical death to reassure those who loved him that he did in fact, continue on.

Im thinking, if it was good enough for Jesus to do, good enough for us to stop working for a friday every year, good enough for many of us to go to church for the first and possibly one service of the year, good enough for us to don hats, gloves and frilly dresses, then perhaps, connecting to the other side is not quite so evil, after all.

Good Friday - indeedee!

These days are you finding it harder and harder to hold your tongue. When the people around you start spewing craziness, hatred, negativity, fear, "yada yada snore," do you really just have to bite the words back?

OR, like yours truly, are you just needing to speak truth. Your truth, maybe not theirs but, yours. Anyone who knows me, knows that "Candid" Carla is every one's truth, whether liked or not. Candor is your friend, really. Candor is your friend because, once you know an other's position, then you can truly be yourself.

I have always found truth, spoken in kindness can be dealt with by just about anyone. I am not really sure why I am writing this blog tonight. Someone must need to hear it. If that someone is you, just take a deep breath, and as politely as possible, with as few words as possible...just say it.

Get over it - we are all just renters!

2009-04-01T20:27:00.001-07:00

I was inspired to write this blog as I watched an HBO special tonight about the fight between Israel and Palestine, which ultimately led to one teenager Palestinian girl blowing up herself and another girl in a grocery store in Israel.

It was a documentary about how both sides - the families of these girls - felt pain, from this horrible event.

It struck me so hard, because those girls died for nothing. The land that their countries are defending from each other, blowing each other up over, attacking each other over...does not belong to anyone. It was there ages before they were ever even conceived as a thought. That land, just as the same land that I live on, you live on, anyone lives on - does not belong to anyone.

I realized this one day as I was driving over the Trail Ridge Road in Estes Park Co. As I drove over that famous road, and looked out at the highest point over the top of the Rocky Mountains, more than 13,000 feet up, it became perfectly clear that I, just like every other generation before me would enjoy that land for a finite amount of time. Then, I, not the land, would continue on my journey off of the land, happily leaving it behind for other generations to enjoy.

Unfortunately, for those two girls, they left the land for their families to fight over. Will this change anything? Probably not. For their fight has been roaring on and on for so long. So, it makes me ponder. Who is the fool here? One side over the other? Or humans as a whole, for trying to own something that was always bigger than they could hold. Grander, than they could ever comprehend, and a work of God's art that was never meant to be "owned."

For as smart as we humans believe we are, we really act ignorant sometimes. I hope those girl's families can ever find peace.

She's Back!

"You can do this....You all have a master in you. You would not be alive right now, if that was not the case. Timing here on earth really is divine. Choose joy. Choose light. Insist that you live in nothing short of truth, honesty and integrity. Only then, will you truly be in your most perfect scenario!"

- words from an Archangel

Did you feel that?

2009-03-25T14:07:00.000-07:00

At approximately 4:00 a.m. CST today, there was another shift. Many people have reported being restless last night.

I am not sure exactly what new energy this recent shift is bringing to us, although I am sure we will soon see it in each of our lives.

I would imagine it will further support the surfacing of old issues. Issues that were once thought dealt with, put on the back burner or forgotten about in our minds.

Going with the flow is a good idea, presently. Making set plans month ahead will be difficult, in most situations. Allow our co-creator energy to rule your decision making right now. That means, if something is not flowing well, let it go and allow another idea to come to you.

This is not a time to push anything.

Why do I think that anyone has time in their day to listen to what little ole me has to say? You might be saying.."Nobody cares, so shut up...You are so annoying!" Well, then you would be quoting Madagascar!

I write this blog, not to hear myself chirp away, but because the angels, yes, the Archangels asked me to do it. They knew this particular point in our life, as in the life of earth, was going to be terribly wretched to live through, and in their foresight, asked me to be just one little voice.

I call it my public service. I do it because they asked me to. Much like many things in my career, because I was asked to. It is called, "living by faith, letting go and letting God, trust, crazed?" Perhaps, all of the mentioned. I know, no matter what you call it, if I step aside and just do what I am asked, then life goes much easier for me.

I recommend you do the same...and maybe start you're own blog too!

Chanting, and creatively baking dirt. HUH?

2009-03-17T08:40:00.001-07:00

So, you are irritated with life. Stressed out to the max. Everyone and everything is stomping on your very last sane nerve and you feel like you can't get away from it. What to do?

There are a few cheap and easy everyday things that can greatly help you release your stress and ground yourself back down and away from other's chaotic energy.

Chant... we are very lucky people. Over and over and over in your head, as many times a day as you can. I really can't stress this one enough. You may not realize it, but those words have energy and that energy will keep you balanced like a cork in water. It will help you just float through your day, unable to be dragged under, no matter what! Plus, it will attract great stuff to you.

Garden...Touching the ground, dirt and organic matter, naturally grounds you. Ground=dirt. Very simple, and a great time of year for it. I would actually let some of the dirt get on your skin, you don't have to dig with your fingers, just don't be super neat. That smearing of mud may well be the best, cheapest spa treatment you can get right now!

Bake...Anything. Baking is a very nurturing, grounding ritual. It has incredible strength and energy tied to it. A ritual is anything that is done with purpose and repetition. It is in a sense, basic care giving. Feeding ones hunger, providing comfort are ways to help ground and heal, which baking does well. It is a great time to try some new spring recipes. If you don't have the time to whip up anything from scratch, a two dollar mix from the baking aisle works just fine. The healing comes from the act of baking, not in the final product, so much. That means, you can bake away, give the goodies to the office or friends, and still reap major benefits - without gaining a pound.

Create...Making something by hand is a wonderful way to ground, and open up those psychic channels in yourself. Creative energy and psychic energy are the same thing, channelled in a different way. Again, as with the baking, the final product is not so important as the act. Paint the same piece of canvas, again and again. Paint your wall different colors, knit, try your hand at clay modeling, it doesn't matter. Just let some of those creative juices flow. You will be surprised at how calm you feel and you just might discover a hidden talent in yourself!

Don't forget to accessorize!

2009-03-16T21:16:00.000-07:00

Have you noticed something as you are going about your day? Have you taken time to watch others around you. See something you might now have seen about three months ago? Noticed more unhappy faces than usual?

Yep, that is right. NO smiles. We went to a much needed night out this weekend, and I couldn't believe the unhappy faces. I am not just talking stoic, but down right, "let me burn you with my eyes" faces. In cars, restaurants, the movie store, grocery store, even fun places, seemed joyless. I actually felt bad for many of the people sitting around us at dinner because their faces just seemed to scream, "I am so miserable!"

I can hear my clients bristle when I mention change in a session. Humans as a whole, loath change. But, you know this much needed and highly anticipated "shift", or change is what our souls needed to do. The process is confusing. The confusion is irritating, and unsettling. The unsettled feeling is actually the fertile ground from which a beautiful new "us" will emerge from.

So, when you get dressed in the morning, don't walk out the door without the one most forgotten, yet so important accessory to your day. You never know, your smile may just be that little bit of extra "umph" your co-worker, neighbor or fellow commuter needed to see beaming back to them. In turn, you just might need to see theirs too!

My daughter used to be in the drill team and they had a cute little saying, for those times when their "less than balanced" director was being Napoleonic...it goes -

"five...six....seven....eight...NO FUN!"

Try saying that without smiling just a little! Especially when someone around you is not being nice back to you! Just say that in your head and you will giggle, perhaps just a bit!

A smile is free, catchier than the flu, and is definitely just what somebody ordered for us right now! We ALL need them! Smiles are animated light!

Compliment your wardrobe with one, everyone else will thank you for it.

Can you read this without crying...good stuff!

Prune those gardens!

2009-03-11T10:33:00.001-07:00

At first glance, the sudden shoot of a of a rose bush, may appear impressive. Grand lifestyles can be just the same, outwardly impressive, but in need of pruning, to bring the whole into balance.

There was an article today on Yahoo News about how frugal penny pincher's are taking their miserly behaviors to extremes in this recession. It detailed different scenarios from some clipping coupons, to actually saving uneaten scraps of bagels to use later as bases for pizzas. One woman actually went from stockpiling a quarter of her pay to half of her pay, admittedly out of fear. Anything we do out of fear, will only feed more fear. The things we do that feed simplicity, truth, and health will in turn, bring more stress free living, growth and health.

Just like that beautiful rose bush that was trimmed back to just ugly sticks a month ago, it now is covered in vibrant growth, and ready to take on an new year of blooming. So shall we all!

Good God "Amighty!"

2009-03-10T21:28:00.000-07:00

It has been brought to my attention, my original posting about choosing whatever you would like to do in life, without societal restraints, needs clarification. I assumed that when I wrote the blog it was pretty well stated, as well as implied, that whatever one might choose for their life - be positive. Not what you think would make you happy, but truly positive.

So for all of you out there who may need a bit more ruling...I thought it went without saying, that your perfect scenario was a beneficial, no harm done type of activity. To be living to the highest good of all and to harm no one, including yourself. In full disclosure, I am literally shaking my head, but here goes...

So, no, you can't be trying to date another woman's husband or wife.

And no matter how justified you believe it is that another couple is not happy, nor has been happy, breaking up a marriage really just does not qualify in the no harm category!

Divorcing sick people, taking from another, refusing to get a job when you are young, viable and perfectly capable of working, but would rather not, and eat off of food stamps, all those activities do not fall under any part of this, no harm creed. Using food stamps in that manner, just screams, "there is a breakdown in my life, and I need some help" - perhaps mentally.

Connecting to the darker side of spirituality, feeds the very thing we all struggle with in life, negativity. Besides, it only brings you chaos...does this speak of your family situation? Immediately change what you choose to have around you, if that is the case!

Taking from another in any form, is stealing, no matter how big or small, real property or intellectual.

A bit of personal responsibility is needed for us all to choose a different life. One that would make us happy, and personal responsibe directly excludes another person having to lose a part of their life, no matter how justified you think it is, for your benefit.

By the way, if you think Angels of any level are telling you that you are justified in this behavior, or helping you to do it, you are very misguided...Angels do not support that behavior. They will move two people in to mutually beneficial places, but I have never heard of a "other woman's" wish to have a husband divorce their wife, receive Angelic support. That old issue with " in the name of God" is a problem for some metaphysical people too.

I received some great advice today. I was told to look at the master soul in everybody, and to expect that part of them to present themselves to me. It may sound like a large order, but we are all here for a reason people, and yes, you have it in you, and yes, you need to learn to access it at will. There is no need for another person to figure out your life, unless of course, you are refusing to do so. In that case, you need to get a grip, leave other people's property and spouses alone, get a job, make your own way in life, and expect your self to live life with the highest amount of integrity.

We all make mistakes. It is what life is about. Each one of us will inevitably be the one's suffering for our poor choices. I suggest you memorize, to the highest good of all and to harm no one, including yourself. In honesty, this creed of living makes life decisions, perfectly clear. Perhaps not the way would would selfishly choose it to go, but better for you, and the rest of the world in the long run.

We can do this... we all have a master in us. You would not be alive right now if that was not the case. Timing here on earth really is divine. Choose joy, choose light, insist that you live in nothing short of truth, honesty, and integrity. Only then, will you truly be in your most perfect scenario!

Coming to the surface for fresh air!

2009-03-09T10:30:00.000-07:00

This ongoing energy is bringing all issues to the surface. How does that translate to our lives? You might be finding that your family members, friends, even casual acquaintances are showing sides of themselves that are just a bit surprising. You are too. This energy is not selective. If there was old stale, repressed, ill energy shoved to the back shelf, so to speak, you probably are seeing evidence, clear evidence that like all unhealthy energy, it is finally being released.

This could be happening in the form of a much needed divorce, finally coming to completion! Smile, smile! I could be coming in the form of old, unspoken, abuse issues working their way to the surface. Lost jobs, that needed to be lost, months ago. Perhaps, you are just finding it almost impossible to stay quiet, as you see obvious, bad behavior, happening right in front of you.

The time for candor is at hand. The time to allow people to get away with acting badly towards us is past...whatever the situation. This level of integrity holds for us all. We are being prompted by an internal source to choose light and correctness.

Correctness being, to the highest good of all and to harm no one, including ourselves, foremost. For those of you who are reading this blog, and have a spiritually based business, the time to expect the ultimate integrity in yourself, and your fellow colleague, is now. We cannot expect the worlds view of our type of business to change if we do not actively expose behavior which feeds negative views of our business. It seems so simple. Just speak up. Not always easy to do. Never fun. But necessary.

This really does speak to all of us, in a spiritual business, or not. Speak your truth. Do not allow yourself to turn your head, when an obvious wrong is occurring right in front of you. Allow yourself to face those issues that are coming up around you. They are rising to the surface to be healed, which may mean confrontation of some kind. Confrontation does not always have to be nasty business. One can speak truth, without police involvement.

Allowing dis-eased energy to be resolved and finally leave us is the path to accepting this ever growing light energy in our world. As these issues come up, speak your truth, make your stand, take responsibility for your part, allow the other side to state their case, and then see the issue turning into white energy in your mind, and let it go.

It is the path to freedom. Freedom from useless heavy energy. See yourself as a flashlight, burning brightly for those around you to see. Maybe those around you cannot find their own flashlight, or their batteries are burned out and corroded...that is OK, they will see with you, through your torch.

Let the great outing begin!

2009-03-08T08:39:00.001-07:00

My entire career, I have struggled with the issue, of less than credible people, using my type of career work, as a means to scam uninformed people out of money. I am not alone, it is the hardest thing to overcome as an intuitive based business...the long history of scam artist, theives, and plain old liars using metaphysics as a shady curtain to hide behind, while taking as much, and quickly as they can from their "clients" is an ongoing crime.

Their excuses are always the same..."but I am helping." "I am doing it out of love..." This type of scam artist works fast and furiously to get as much money from their unsuspecting client before they are found out. Teaching classes on intuition and Reiki, are a niche where these types of con artist can work for quite some time without being found out. They typically pick locations to do this, in small communities where the local knowledge about such matters is minimal and competition is scarce.

Once established they go to town, destroying the sacred rituals hand down Reiki Master to Reiki Master for decades, with ultimate care being given to keep the sacred rituals of this practice pure. They have no concern for the rituals or correct way to teach this healing art, because the true, honest way to teach Reiki takes something they do not want to utilize...time!

For a true Reiki attunement to be given correctly, one must wait a minimum of 21 days between attunements. Attunements are the ritual that awakens the healing energy of Reiki in the student. This awakening is always, without fail, followed by a cleanse of energy. This cleanse can be minimal in it's physical affects, or quite uncomfortable.

Anyone who has had a real Reiki attunement will tell you, they knew something had occurred to them, as they stayed quite close to the bathroom, for days following the attunement. The biggest giveaway that fake Reiki attunements are being given, is multiple levels of Reiki being taught at once. This is against the hand down teachings of Reiki, and if one were to be attuned to two levels of Reiki at once, I dare say, the following month would be a bit uncomfortable and awkward for them dealing with two cleanses at once.

I have heard recently of Reiki classes being given all four levels at one weekend. Not the real Reiki. This practice would not only be physically impossible for the Master to conduct, as the attunement is performed via the Master's aura, the cleansing process for all involved would be near debilitating.

Reiki is not meant to be rushed for a reason. I cannot go any longer hearing about innocent unsuspecting people paying money for something they are not getting. If you did actually take Reiki from someone, touting they would teach you all levels in one weekend, or even two of them, thinking you were getting a speedy expedited training, you didn't. You most likely are not even participating in an authentic Reiki class, as handed down by Dr. Usui, the founder of Reiki.

What do you do if you have been had in this manner. Chances are you are not going to get your money back. You might try though. Demanding that you be re-attuned in the correct manner will get you no where, as the person who did this to you, probably never had a real Reiki class in the first place themselves.

Here are the things to look for in an USUI Reiki Master:

They teach only one level at a time, with a minimum of 21 days between each session. The third and Master classes are ok to teach closer together, but this usually falls on the discretion of the student's spirit guides and the Master class will fall in line when the student is ready.

When you go to the Reiki I class, look around you. If there are more than 8 people, and that is alot for a level I class, leave. Reiki I attunements are the hardest attunements to perform, they are labor and energy intensive to the Master giving them, and each person in class will have to receive 4 attunements that day. It takes about 20 - 30 minutes to attune a person to Reiki I, with that many people, you will be sitting in an altered state for up to four hours.

Note: this amount of attunement is physically exhausting to the Master.

After the Reiki attunement you will go through a cleanse. It might be minor in some ways, major in others. I have taught Reiki for over 7 years. I do not have a student in my history that did not experience a cleanse, including myself in all of those attunements. If you are not feeling something, either physcially, mentally or emotionally...ask questions.

Most Reiki Masters have their lineage of where they stand in relation to Takata, the woman who was responsible for bringing Reiki to the states. Ask to see this lineage, and contact the people above them. That will give you a pretty good idea if you are paying for Usui Reiki or just giving your money away.

Did you really just do that?

Original thoughts. Original web design. Living and working with integrity...concept's some people could utilize in their own life. Hmmm.

When I grow up, I want to be....what?

2009-03-06T11:26:00.000-08:00

What if you could choose your life destiny without any restrictions? What if you could choose to be whatever you liked, do whatever you wanted, and lived in your most perfect spot?

Have you felt lately as if the things you thought were important to you, are now, not so much. Things you felt like you wanted to do, as in, long term goals, are now, not so much. What is happening to us?

My thought is our core belief system is tweaking. The real part of each of us is coming to the surface. Take some time this weekend to just ponder, what would truly make you happy. Try to really let go of all societal restraints. Let go of what you think is "proper or expected of you." So many of us live our entire life driven by our societies demands, and we do this fully believing those demands are our own wishes. Maybe that is true for you, and maybe it is not.

This energy is really showing each of us, exactly what in our life is important to our hearts. So, if you have suddenly abandoned those plans you had been moving towards for years, it is OK. Let your heart guide you to where you really are wishing to be. Our thoughts of "grandeur, being the best, top dog, the richest, and most likely to succeed," may have been fueled by peer pressure and society, after all.

Let your heart speak for you. Inside each of us is the divine voice of God, the part of us that knows exactly what we came here to do. What we are masters at, and how to find ultimate unbridled joy.

All you have to do is listen, and let go of what you "should" do. Choose Joy at all times, you can't go wrong in that situation.

Off ramps and highways....OH MY!

2009-03-02T10:46:00.000-08:00

I am very excited to see what March will bring for us. My feeling is, issues are going to resolve themselves, somewhat. Don't get all excited, thinking our economy is going to snap back. It will eventually get better, better than it had been. Yet, it will take more time.

If you can imagine our globe is inside of a giant scaffolding system. Just see in your mind's eye the entire planet there, not just America, Christians, or white folk, the whole lot, everyone. The scaffolding is where millions, perhaps billions, of angelic beings are working fast and efficiently to build the infrastructure strong enough to sustain this new energy that we as humans, chose to embrace. We chose to own this energy, and so, therefore, a stronger base was needed to allow us to fully use it. Hence the need for a stronger, different type of infrastructure.

Now, imagine, in your mind's eye, you standing in the middle of an intricate scaffolding system, as well. This personal scaffolding is around your aura and physical body. Every person on this whole planet, big or small, has a unique restructuring going on within their aura. This rewiring, restructuring, restoring and updating is aligning us all to be able to harmonize with this newer higher vibration, that we chose to accept and embrace. Higher, is synonymous with light. Light, is synonymous with God. So in basic terms, we all chose to have a higher, purer connection with God. You might have a different path to connect to him, than the next person. You might call him a different name, than the next person. It matters not, there is only one God...and we as a species chose to be closer to him.

So, as the Angels work tirelessly to get our planet up to speed with this new energy as a whole, our own private set of specialist, Angels are working on our own aura bodies, which includes our physical bodies, to be able to harmonize with the planet's new vibe. Some old unhealthy relationships, jobs, and/or life situations, in general, which had no hope of being positive, have been released, not to punish, but to help. If this has happened to you, then just accept the fact, that your higher self recognized the situation your were in, was not a long term beneficial one for you to continue to stay in. So, your higher self, "forced your hand." So you would be repositioned in a better place. This can be harsh, to say the least.

Try to imagine these abrupt situations as surgery. Surgery is sometimes required to remove and repair damaged and unhealthy energy, which is incapable of sustaining health. Be calm and know that your Angels are working to manifest you a better, healthier, happier life situation or situation's. This is going to take trust in the Angels and God, on your part. Remember..."let go and let God."

For some of us, it may feel like we are on perpetual hold. This is because our free will is not as readily available to us, as it has been in the past. We still have free will and will always have free will. However, as we are waiting for the energy, as a whole, to be stronger and settled, our wise Angels know, timing is everything and we need patience. Would you even consider driving on a half built highway ramp? I hope not. Do not try to forcibly drive your life into uncharted areas now, until our new spiritual highway is ready, either!

Trust. Talk to your Angels. Talk to God. We all can do it, without going through a middle man! Chant to yourself... "I choose Joy, happiness, health, luck and love at all times." Do this especially in those times when you feel the most despair, the most lost, the most depressed. It will immediately redirect those negative energies around you into more positive beneficial one for you.

We are very lucky people, surrounded by joy, happiness, health, and prosperity at all times!

Unlikely Angels...

2009-02-25T16:39:00.000-08:00

We never know where we are going to see angels. They masquerade around us all the time as normal people. We may not ever even know who or where they actually are, yet benefit from their presence in the most trying of times.

Angels show themselves by extending an open heart, an open mind, an outstretched hand, giving a warm hug and above all, concern for our well being. The next time you are going through a difficult time in your day, or life, pay attention. We just never know when they are going to pop up.

While on the subject, the next time you feel that tug to help another, take time out of your life to actually care about someone - more than yourself, or just need to call someone, for no particular reason, DO IT!

It is in those times, the angels may be using you to create some of their warm magic to help the good vibrations flow more freely around our planet.

Just keep swimming and chanting.

2009-02-23T19:20:00.000-08:00

Yes, we manifest our experiences with our thoughts. Yes, you have to think a lot of positive thoughts sometimes, to offset the negative energy swirling around you constantly here on earth. The negative is always here, and always will be. We, humans, are all master's at dealing with negative energy, we all have been doing this since birth. It is sadly, the essence of our world here. The trick, is to ignore the negative, to allow the positive room to grow.

In other words, no matter what situation you are dealing with. No matter, how unfairly you believe you have been treated. No matter, how unjustified you think your life is...Nothing will change, if you continually focus on the negative, you are living through. Live through it, and get to the other side of it, asap.

Just how are you supposed to ignore the fact that your dad just threw you out of the house, told you he never wanted to hear from you again, and that you were not "normal"?

Well. First of all, you ignore everything "they" said. Because, regardless of whether "they" were correct or not, their actions against you were not. NO parent worthy of that title, would even think of putting their daughter out with her belongings in the yard, in the middle of the night, over anything, least of all, words.

Second, tell yourself what you know to be true about yourself. You are not worthless. You are a beautiful creature. You were hand made by God, inside and out. Your behavior, can always improve, mistakes are what we are here to learn by. Besides, "they" might not want to believe it about themselves, but, "they" make mistakes, too. "They" just made a HUGE, mistake.

Third, you choose again. Tell God, ( with your thoughts or our loud ) you need joy, you need positive abundance, and you need luck - immediately. Tell him that you are one proud, lucky, joyous beautiful person who is growing, learning and improving with every breath and are willing to choose light.

Life will change. It already has. You are not defeated. They were not correct. Keep breathing, keep chanting, " I am a lucky person, surrounded by angels, and God loves and takes care of me, because I choose joy, NOW."

Be true and honest to yourself, and everyone else in your life - it will put you exactly in the spot God intended for you to be at!

Weekend words to wander through your mind....

2009-02-20T13:18:00.000-08:00

There is only one you.

God wanted you to be you.

Don't you dare CHANGE

Just because you're out-numbered!

"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.

I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to what light I might have."

Abraham Lincoln

Today might be a good day to challenge yourself to do just one of those things that you have been putting off. We all have at least one chore, conversation, or action that we know in our heart's we need to do. Yet, we just can't bring ourselves to actually take even one tiny little step toward it.

Pick the least threatening to you, or even the most threatening and just jump. Ask your Guardian angel, God or a higher power to surround you in light, guide your words, steady your mind and soul, and then just do it.

Today is an action day. Allow the forward movement already swirling about you to help you whisk through your task. The dread of doing it is worse than reality.

Come on! I will do it too. I am going to finally clean out that ginormous catch all chest in my dining room. It looms and sneers at me every time I walk by it and I know that clutter and mess only attract confusion and chaos...so here it goes. That is my challenge.

What is yours?

Interesting little snippet....Did you know that Lincoln's wife held regular seance's at the White House? They were, indeed, a cosmopolitan couple.

"Woe to those who call evil good"

2009-02-18T07:59:00.000-08:00

In a recent published prayer by Billy Graham. He states Gods words were, "Woe to those who call evil good." Mr Graham brings up many points, stating "we have lost our equilibrium and reversed our values." He addresses subjects such as exploitation, abuse of power, gambling, profanity, abortions, welfare, etc.

All of these behaviors he mentions, are ancient in origin. None are new. Nothing has been reversed. The moral fabric of humans remains the same, if not worse. Never in history have humans behaved better. Abuse of power by those in control dates all the way, way back to Jesus being tortured and executed, in public!

Exploitation of the poor? Yeah, history books chronicle that ancient practice from the time there was any form of distinction of wealth. Gambling? Men have made wagers since the beginning of time. The lottery is an updated form of an ancient concept, not new.

Profanity? Do you really believe your generation, no matter which you hail from came up with swearing or pornography? What about that little place where people lost their minds and did all kinds of crazy stuff. You might recognize the name, Saddam and Gomorrah? Ancient images of nakedness and orgy's carved in stone walls, unearthed by archeologist's? And let's not forget the most famous of all, Mary of Magdalen...she sure had a righteous career with patrons to support it. Jesus loved her anyway, and did not judge her.

Abortions. Women have used herbs and all kinds of terrible ways to cease pregnancies since we were able to breed as a species. The difference today, is thankfully, they have safe ways to do that without bleeding to death in an alley, dying from infection, or their doctor being thrown in jail for taking care of them.

Welfare. What are we to do with people who have been born, raised and saturated in a way of life where self reliance is a foreign concept to them? Let them starve? Turn our backs? How terribly Christian of us. Why don't we just go back to that all too common scene of beggars lining the streets of the ancient cities...The same beggars that Jesus healed in all of those stories. There are those who are not capable of changing the life they are dealt with the tools they have been given, by birth. It is. Welfare is a crippling cycle many people are born into. A cycle so strong, we have to give assistance to those who have not the strength or belief in themselves to break it. To say welfare is promoting laziness, is a heartless, loveless, ill-spoken statement.

"Woe to those who call evil good?" It is true. What you put out, by your own actions, will come back to you. Karma is real. Karma is misunderstood mostly, but it is simple. "Do unto others, as you would have them do to you." If you cheat someone, expect to be cheated. Lie and you will be lied to. Harm others in anyway, and you will be harmed. It is the law of the universe. It is the law of God. Spirituality means personal responsibility. What you do to yourself and others, will and does affect you directly. Negative energy attracts negative energy. Have you ever seen a truly good natured drug dealer? Of course not, when he turns his back, to count the dollars you gave him, the fake smile fades and he targets his next mark. Then, by the hand of karma, someone target's him. By the way, drugs are not a new concept either...opium dens were rampant a long, long time ago.

I whole heartily agree our view on life, our value system is in need of self reform. I also realize we learn through our mistakes. Without mistakes, there will be no growth. We have to live a life of turmoil to appreciate the learning opportunities it allows us to experience. We all do it, it is the evolution process of a soul. True, some of us are farther along that process than other's. Knowing this, we will never have a world without negativity, it is the learning ground for better behavior. People typically do not learn much life experience when everything is going well for them. People learn when their hearts are breaking, when they have lost precious things and realize finally that they were precious. People learn by being in other's shoes. It might not happen in this lifetime, but you will wear the shoes of those you do not understand, and those that you ridicule, judge, and discriminate against.

As for the line in Mr Grahams prayer..."We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment." I am not sure what he is alluding to. Interesting to me his statements prior to this line would be so direct, yet this is so broad of a statement. We cannot learn or grow and stay the same. Tis, an oxymoron. Evolution means change. Our society is not the society that our fore father's knew. Our awareness spiritually, is not the same as it was then, nor is our value system. We allow women to vote. We do not own people. Segregation is finally a horrible thing of our less than stellar past. And by the way, when are forefather's wrote our constitution, all of these time-honored practices were perfectly acceptable. So, my question is, have we in fact, "reversed our values" as Mr. Graham says, or have we evolved as a whole, despite the already prevalent short comings of us all?

It is getting increasingly harder to ignore the fact that people are seeking God, whatever way they see him, or call him, through their own way. We are evolving spiritually, not turning evil...man as a whole, mastered that ages ago.

And by the way, our fore fathers had a vision of a unified democratic system that gave equality to all man...it seems to me, with our last election, man took a giant step to actually fulfilling that vision. By electing a black President. (FYI: Our fore father's would never have elected a man they owned.)

Obama, being the first President, Mr. Graham has ever declined to council. Who is ridiculing who?

We could all learn by living life to the highest good of all, with harm to no one...including ourselves. Living this way, narrows down your choices and makes life decision's a whole lot easier.

Just laugh!

2009-02-16T12:32:00.000-08:00

Do you get the feeling that everyone is losing it? Does it seem to you that all of our querky issues are all brimming to the surface, if not overflowing? You aren't alone, and your issues are boiling and brimming too. All of us are having to face those situations in our lives which, on the best days, push our buttons.

Why? Because those negative little aspects of us are needing to be addressed and released. The best way for that to happen, is for those outside influences, (geared to trigger those not so pleasant parts of us) to do just that, set us off. Thus, so we can recognize them for what they are and do the best we can to see them for what they really are, and then laugh.

That's right folks, laugh. See the misunderstanding, stand offs, screaming, and pettiness for what they truly are and have yourself a giggle. Chances are, at least right now, there really isn't a good reason for you to be upset...one of those, "Where did that come from moments!"

Try to see the situation that is frustrating you for what it is. Realize that we are moving into harmony with peace, and chaos is needing to be swept away in the garbage, because minute by minute, we are moving out of harmony with chaos.

Try cleaning out a drawer, get rid of all unnecessary stuff. Clean a closet shelf. Take one small space of your life, home, or place and get rid of all the junk...this is a quick and easy way of releasing and it will help you feel more balanced. Then, go kiss, laugh and makeup...it will all be better - eventually.

The Aquarian Alignment 14th February 2009. WOW!

2009-02-14T13:48:00.000-08:00

I know just enough about astrology to be dangerous...

This wonderful note came to me today via Glenn Keys, Astrologer Extraordinare 817-741-0705... it looks like it was sent to her via Jude Currivan PhD, www.judecurrivan.com. I thank these ladies for publishing and distributing such great info!

I found this fabulously interesting, and was covered in goosebumps when I read it. Send out your intention of love, even if it is past the time frame suggested below.

The Aquarian alignment 14th February 2009.

We measure our global sense of both space (latitude and longitude) and time(universal time - UTor GMT) from the prime meridian located at Greenwich, England. So we can perceive the collective influence of this momentous astrological event by looking at the alignment from this globally 'centered' perspective.

When we do, something extraordinary and exquisite emerges!

At dawn on 14th February the day dedicated to St. Valentine, the patron saint of Love, the Moon in Libra enters the seventh house of relationships. And, Jupiter and Mars are aligned in Aquarius in the twelfth house of spiritual transformation.

Forty years ago, the intuitive words of a song called Aquarius, brought the dawning of the new age into our collective awareness:

When the Moon is in the seventh house

and Jupiter aligns with Mars.

Then peace will guide the planets

and love will steer the stars!

At dawn on the 14th February the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment to support our collective manifestation of love and peace and the dawning of the Age of Aquarius!

The Aquarian chart of 14th February reveals an incredible concentration of cosmic influences blending with the energies of Aquarius in the twelfth house. Expansive Jupiter and energetic Mars are aligned with the higher purpose of the North Node. The presence of Chiron the wounded healer offers us the opportunity to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long.

Mercury also in the twelfth house, but just beyond the cusp in Capricorn, allies with transformational Pluto to communicate and anchor the Shift through-out our global structures and institutions.

Neptune emphasizes collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice. And, the presence of the radiant Sun enlightens the entire alignment.

The Moon in Libra in the seventh house emphasizes harmonious real- ationships.

Venus in Aries in the first house energizes and empowers dynamic co-creativity.

And whilst Saturn the great task master in opposition to Uranus, the unexpected awakener is suggesting an ongoing confrontation as the dregs of the unsustainable old paradigm reluctantly give way to the untested hope of the new, their placements in Virgo and Pisces brings practical altruism and visionary inspiration to the transition.

At 7.25am on 14th of February, and for the 18 minutes of the alignment, I invite you, in the universal heart, to add your own intention for love and peace and to co-create the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to that of the cosmos. In whatever way feels appropriate for you, you may choose to align with 7.25 am (UT) or 7.25 am your own local time energizing a wave of intention that will surge around the Earth.

With love, joy and gratitude in the universal heart, Jude."

Does we can, mean we should?

2009-02-13T16:49:00.000-08:00

I am a big fan of, "Yes we can!" There are those times when the question, " But, should we?" Is way more important.

Perhaps, these changing times are forcing us to see reality concerning what we need to have in our life, instead of what we "think" we need to have. Do we need to have homes with oversized everything filling them to the brim? Do we need three car garages for a family of two? Do children need catered birthday parties, financed by their over zealous parents? Do we need to use our medical knowledge to allow mother's to have litters of babies?

My animal breeding knowledge is limited, at best. But, using the simple rule of anatomy tells me that female humans should normally have no more than two children...hard to feed more than two at one time. Many species actually kick any extra newborns out of the nest because nature tells them something is wrong. If an animal has six nipples, they have six babies...we have two.

So, knowing this, I am curious as to why humans have taken on the, all too common, behavior of forcing our bodies to create up to four times the natural amount of children we were made to produce at one time. How many generations does it take for a genetic trait to begin to show up in our offspring. Are we going to reflect on the era when women only had one child at a time? Is our anatomy slowly going to mutate until we have nipples up and down our torso's? EWH!

You might argue, drugs force women to have so many children at a time, with the multiple fertilized eggs manually implanted into her, this is not naturally occurring....But, this is happening while tiny, little lives are being created, all under the influence of unnatural manipulation.

I am not knocking fertility medicine. I know many people who have become parent's due to fertility measures. It is a beautiful thing. God obviously gave us this medical know how - to help us. What I am questioning, is why do human's have an almost predictable need to push limit's to excess? Why not just one or two, maybe three? Ask parent's of newborn twins or triplets, if their cup runneth over or not?

Maybe, this spiritual shift is here, among other things, to help us choose balance. The planet that we live on, is in a perpetual state of balance, it is naturally occurring. It never ends...when all things are balanced, peace truly has been achieved.

How does this affect your personal life? Look around you. Where is your life out of balance? Too much work? Too much stress? Too much stuff? Living your life consumed by your mortgage payment's? Too much time on the computer?

Take small steps to create harmony in your life. Whittle away at the excess in your spaces. Clean out closets, garages, rooms, and decide what you really need to live happily. Releasing excess energy will immediately help lighten your load and help you get off the teeter-totter!

As for having big families, balance is the key there too!

The third month, on the third rock!

2009-02-10T01:42:00.000-08:00

I often times feel like a voyeur in sessions. I listen to both sides of conversation's, having nothing to do with me, unless it is about the general status of the planet's energy.

Sometimes in those conversations, trends start to appear. Such as, spirit will begin to tell different client's similar information, "don't put your money in the market...shift's are coming...etc."

One of those trends I am seeing is that March is a defining month. I am getting the broad feeling that energy will feel like it is lightening up for us. This will affect each of us differently, appear differently, yet, this is the overall energy I see shaping up soon.

I am crossing my fingers for a gentler, calmer more prosperous moment for all of us. We shall see.

Keep chanting to yourself, "we are all very lucky people, enjoying positive abundance and joy at all times to bring this energy to your family"...it's free and will help you atract his energy to your family.

2009-02-06T08:05:00.000-08:00

It is not in your head. You are more tired than normal. For about three days now, this energy drag has really become...a drag!

I propose this weekend, everyone takes a chill, because trying to climb mountains this weekend, may proved harder than normal. Spirit has told me in response to the energy shifts, we lightworkers are kind of being used as batteries, so to speak.

Not sure about anyone but myself, I am definitely feeling the pull on my reserves. The next few days calls for nice weather in Dallas, and its a good time to get out and soak up those sun rays, to replenish your battery.

Have a lovely chilled back, lucky kind of weekend, filled with all kinds of joy!

My life is falling apart - what do I do now?

2009-02-05T14:41:00.000-08:00

These days I have to answer such tough questions....Am I gonna lose my job? Are we gonna lose our house? Is my marriage going to end?

This is the norm in sessions, and it breaks my heart. If you find yourself in one, two or all three of these situations, you are not alone. You are not alone, because your angels are feverishly working around you, to set up better situations for you to replace the ones that have fallen away. The only reason life situations dissolve are so that better, healthier ones have room to come in to our lives.

If your job sucks, (and some of you work in hellish places) do not purposefully do anything to change it...No matter how bad it is, I just cannot bring myself to tell anyone to leave a paying job. If however, your job status changes without your help, you get laid off, the company closes, etc...then obviously the angels are going to assist you into a better place, for you.

This does not mean if you had a Sales Manager position, your angel's are going to find them a another Sales Manager position. Why? Because that might have been the worst place for your soul, and perhaps, they know you would be truly happy working at a hospital gift shop. The truth is, this shift is forcing us all to look beyond where we "think" we "should" be according to society standards into where are hearts are truly, honestly happy.

There are many people being forced out of those high dollar mortgages into smaller more manageable rent homes and apartments. Maybe, if those people don't have to struggle so hard to pay those hefty house payments, they could really spend time playing with their kids, maybe go back for their degree....follow their real dreams....not the Jones'.

Have you ever heard of a treatable psychological syndrome caused by living in a rent home or apartment? No. As long as there are loving parent's and happiness, kids adjust. There is no shame in not having a huge home. Truth be told, we all adjust. Look at foreign countries, there are many countries where living in flats, apartments or close knit communities is the norm, not exception.

One might argue our perception of what life should look like, and what we truly desire are being balanced with this shift. This planet is always in perpetual states of balance. Which leads me to relationships. If your's is ending, there is a high likelihood it needed to change years ago. Many people hang onto decaying relationships with death grips for what? To continue to be miserable? It is what we human's do when we are afraid of change. Never under estimate our ability to put up with misery at all cost to our self esteem, self worth, happiness, health, etc...

My advice to you in this situation, let go. Trust your angels. They will guide you and your significant other to find happiness and health in another relationship. There is no need to hang on for dear life and there is probably nothing you can do to change the outcome at this point.

If you are in a otherwise good relationship, but are feeling the pressure of the change, I recommend reading the cleanse I have already listed below, at bedtime each night. This will cleanse your space of any wayward negative stuff, and help you and your loved ones to see situations more clearly. You might just be stressed and that is why you feel so frustrated. Whatever you do, do not turn on each other, life is difficult enough. Do a cleanse, take a bubble bath, make a sweet treat for each other, pamper yourself in little ways, and just breathe.

Do not ask..."What else can go wrong?" This is a terrible idea and an invitation to fate. Just breathe instead, and know we are all going to come out in better situations when the energy and dust settle around us.

Breathe...and chant "We are lucky people, and choose Joy."

If you think that all "psychic's" are going to hell...you might be UNINFORMED!

2009-02-04T07:28:00.000-08:00

Yeah. I have to go there. I can't stand no more. The bible is full of prophets. Prophets that God sent to the good people all over the Bible. He sent them to talk about everything. He even made normal everyday people prophets...Moses brother was a prophet, Jesus was a prophet! Are you getting my point? Prophets were all over the place!

No, we don't use the word prophet anymore, we use "psychic," "Intuitive," even "channel, or medium," it is all the same thing, connecting to the other side. There were good prophets and bad prophets back then, too!

As for connecting to our loved ones, we all do it, even when we do not realize it. Have you ever smelled your late mom's perfume? Felt your loved one's presence around you, and knew it was them? Have you ever heard their voice out of no where? Had a song, or a phrase that they loved just pop into your head, or onto the radio on the exact moment of their crossing?

We all have the God Given ability to connect to the other side, and that means the whole entire other side, Angels, God, Jesus, or Aunt Ann! And as for shunning of mediumship...based on the one statement to not talk to "dead spirits."

I have terrible news, Jesus did in fact, come back from the other side, talked to several very high ranking people, and he was "THE son of God" so, what are we saying? We based the holiest of all holy days, Easter, on a forbidden act? An act committed by Jesus himself?

Does that even make sense to you? If you are going to use the Bible to back your arguments, then you have to see it for what it is...you can't flip flop it's words. Talking to Jesus who was visiting from the other side is celebrated. Mom or Dad stopping in to let you know they are "ok" and will see you again? NO!

You might be saying, " Yeah, but Carla Mae, he was Jesus, the Son of God..." Hello, we are all the children of God. Is that not what Jesus told us over and over? Where is this double standard coming from? God, or in fact, the men who have written and rewritten, and of course, edited the Bible itself?

A bit of rational thinking is a good thing. The antichrist is in all of us. It is the ANTI Christ like part of us, and not just in one man. Need proof, turn on the news! Watch a prison show. Hang out in the parking lot of a High School. Mention the election of Obama to a neighbor who watches CNN all day long, who is in almost paralyzing fear of any change....You'll see the anti - christ for sure then!

These are the end times. The end times of stupid, uninformed, irrational beliefs. Use your heads. The conservative religions are all based on control. If they control what you think, then they control what you do. Then, they control who and what you support, and that means money, people. The whole concept was born ages ago, when leaders knew if they controlled the masses basic, belief system, then they would follow them and keep them in power!

Using your intuition is not evil. There are those criminals who use the cover of psychic and people's ignorance and neediness to scam money from them...Use your head, and your own intuition that God gave you to make reasonable, rational decision's based on what kind of person you believe, including me.

It is true, Metaphysics is not for everyone, neither is Catholicism, or any other religion, that is the beauty in the whole idea, different paths all leading to the same destination! It is all beautiful!

Why all the extra cleaning?

I am posting a reply to a question/comment left concerning the energy space clearing I posted a few days ago....It is a really good question! It addresses why if a person's intention is to be pure and of light, then why would one feel the need to perform a ritual type of cleaning such as what I suggested. Well....

Here is the deal. Light is light, the commenter is correct. However, even during such things as Reiki, the energy giver needs to put extra white light around them during the Reiki session. Because, energy is moving and being transferred. When energy moves, it can shift from one's aura to another's.

Right now, as so much tremendous energy is shifting constantly, it is very good spiritual practice, to use some type of prayer of intention to keep your "house" or aura free of anything that is not in harmony with you.

This is huge people. This image was shown to me from the angels recently. Picture, the whole globe inside scaffolding, covered and crawling with angels, working feverishly to put on our new face of energy....Now, imagine yourself surrounded with a scaffolding system and angels working to prepare your bodies, all of them, to be able to accept this new energy from the globe and the other side.

I'm thinking, what the hell. A space clearing takes about 3 minutes to perform. It is nothing more than intense prayer with a specifically directed intention. In times of great change when people all around you are experiencing great loss through their jobs, families, relationships, on top of changing government systems... a little diligence can't hurt. The bonus, you are doing it yourself, in your own home, and it is free!

A note about the Triple Grid...I understand the wording is odd. I do not work with anything that is not of absolute light. Look at the intention of that clearing - to remove anything that is negative from virus up to really big stuff. Another benefit of this clearing is that it sweeps your house of virus and bacteria - bonus at this time of year!

I hope this helps you guys, do what you feels right for you. Over the years, dealing with as many people's energy as I have, I have kept a vigilance of cleaning in my home. Now, I am more vigilant than ever. Me and my home, we are all Triple Grided, parasite free, full of bright light and we are very lucky people and feeling groovy!

It's a good day!

Energy is feeling pretty good today. Although time is definitely speeding up, our calendar seems to be marking energy. At the stroke of midnight New Years Eve, a refreshed energy came to us, and again with the arrival of February first! It might just be coincidence, but it does definitely feel as if "something" has been achieved and we have moved ahead.

If you have not already tried the clearing I recently posted, I can't recommend it enough. It is the same clearing my mentor had me using when I first started my spiritual journey and it has never steered me wrong. I have been using it for days and can feel a marked difference in our energy and the energy around the house. Just in time for spring cleaning!

oops...

Here is the website for that clearing - I forgot to add to that last post.

Clean your energy everyday!

I always ask people when looking for an answer to their life, what is the rational obvious answer? Then, look for the spiritual significance behind it, to see what also might be happening. I am writing this particular blog today, because although the rational and obvious reason so many people are sick with stomach illness right now, is it is winter and the bugs thrive...The spiritual significance could be that as we are shifting into this major energy change, our chakras, and physical bodies are having to change to accommodate this transformation.

Because our chakras are attached to our physical bodies, naturally, days will happen when we don't feel well, or are more likely to catch a bug. In an attempt to help our bodies deal with these shifts easier, I am adding this link for you to go to the, "What is Lightbody" website to use their Triple Grid/Quad Grid clearing to clean the energy around your home.

You might think energy clearing is not necessary - it is hugely important. Yes, I probably made that word up...just go read the clearing! I suggest you print it out and read it in the SE corner of your home every night, or perhaps twice daily, if anyone in the house is ill. If you have alot of people coming and going out of your house, do it twice daily. You can imagine it as being "spiritual lysol." I know it sounds a bit out there...just do it and no, it is not evil.

Until further notice, I and I suggest you too, do the clearing nightly while our angels work round the clock to move us into a higher level of awareness...

We are asking God to work through us and he doesn't work in a dirty house, so clean your "energies" daily.

Thank you to the What is Lightbody website for posting their clearing's on line for mass access. I HIGHLY recommend purchasing a copy of this book! Fabulous.

Yesterday in the news, a California man killed his wife, and all five of his kids before taking his life. Police are reporting that he and his wife had recently been laid off from their jobs.

This morning in the news, a Denton area woman was pulled over for driving erratically. Police found her inside the car, bleeding from multiple wounds, obviously a victim of an attack.

An attack by herself! After realizing she wasn't drunk, they found her attempting to talk on the phone, saying "just let me die!" They found a butcher knife, and screwdrivers under and around her carseat. They later found she had attacked herself in attempts to kill herself over a relationship gone bad.

Suicide, is the farthest thing from a good answer, as you can get! If you are having thoughts about suicide, bookmark this blog and reread this post every time you think of it again...and call a suicide helpline. The national suicide helpline is 1-800-273-8255.

When you are in agony over losing a job, loved one, relationship or overwhelmed by bills, jumping ship might sound like a rational answer. Listen to me. Many times, I have channeled suicides and just seconds after taking their lives, they regret it.

What happens when a person does take their own life? The exact moment of our crossing was set before we were born. That moment cannot be changed by any living person, including yourself. We can let go of our bodies, yet remain here on the physical plane. This happens because there are different dimensions, we live on the 3rd dimension and when we leave our physical bodies we have no way to appear in 3d anymore.

Our physical bodies are like "overcoats". They are a one time issue, Once removed, can never be put back on. Therefore, take great care of them. At the time of our physical crossing we ALL "step" out of that jacket, and are once again in our lightbody, which is the true way we look.

Our bodies are the single most important tool we have here on earth. Once gone, we have no way of interacting in life. Because we cannot change the time of our crossing, even by our own hand, suicide leaves the one responsible....stuck in the game of life without anyway to play.

They, the suicide will remain on the earth dimension, around their family. Just like before mostly, until the time of their already set crossing date. At that time, they will move over to the spiritual plane, (they have already experienced their physical death), and then they will rest like everyone else. When they are ready to reincarnate again, they will come back to earth and redo the life experiences from their previous life they ended.

The hellish part... only thing that goes away is the physical body, everything else stays the same. The pain you were experiences in your emotions will not go away. Your thoughts, emotions, feelings, they all remain with you, and the icing on the cake...all the horrible pain that you caused your family members with your suicide will be playing to you in technicolor play by play, as suicides are keenly aware of every emotion they cause.

Can you just imagine the pain of knowing your child is weeping for you, thinking it's their fault that you killed yourself? You can't reassure them that is was not their fault because you have no way of communicating with them. That is hell anyway you see it.

People, our lives are not easy right now, true. Our character to God is not measured by our credit score. Those bills can wait. Money situations always change. This shift is helping us to trim those things out of our lives that no longer work for us. Perhaps, you need another job, another house, downsize until you are not stressed so badly....find a new love that will cherish you. As long as you have your physical body, anything can change!

We are not all going through these huge life altering shifts to solely put us through the ringer. At this time, we have to be open for the changes that our higher selves are putting before us. Remember, we can't see the big picture from our vantage point, if things in your life are ending, just breathe....keep your head as calm as possible, and just breathe. As long as you are breathing life can change!

What does intuitive mean, anyway?

A couple of years after starting my career I got very tired of seeing people cringe each time I said I was a "psychic". So, I decided to change my title to "Intuitive" instead of "psychic."

A week or so later a revised newspaper ad came out with my new title under my name and one of my friends stopped me in the store to ask me, why I wasn't doing that "psychic" thing anymore. She had read the newspaper and wondered what line of work I was in as an "Intuitive!"

I tried to explain that both words meant the same thing, but eventually, I gave up trying to explain myself to her and each time I had a phone call inquiring about my services. Eventually, I reverted back to using psychic, less explanation involved.

The funny thing is intuitive or intuition is the politically correct way of saying one is psychic. I think it is interesting however, that American marketing companies have adopted the word, intuitive, as a description for appliances, cars and computers, to just name a few non-intuitive objects. Intuitive, meaning derived from a natural tendency and intuition meaning derived from a natural instinct according to the Web dictionary.

It makes me wonder: why do we clammer to have intuitive cars and ovens, yet, we cringe when one mentions they are an intuitive for a living. It smacks of just a bit of fickleness to allow one, yet, condemn the other.

Intuition, psychic abilities, channeling, are all the same terms used to describe the connecting of subtle energies that are not being said, are instinctively within us all, and a natural occurrence that originated from another source. Many of the greatest masterpieces on earth, both literary and musical are believed to be entirely channelled pieces. Mozart for one wrote all of his compositions without revision.

One of my clients was telling me about a person that accused her of not being of God because of her title of psychic...Well, I wonder about all of those prophets in the Bible that God sent out? Were they all led astray too? Were they all damned to hell even though God sent them? What about the prophecy of the baby Jesus' birth? Would that major day be listed under immediate damnation or the birth of the savior of all?

I say potato, potauto. We are what we are. We are all psychic like it or not! There is no getting around it. The intuitive age is here and our intuition is not going away, our spirituality is here to stay! It's all good.
