Take a bite out of life 🍎🍎🍎

My psychic school organizes an Open Night every semester for people to learn more about the classes and workshops. I've never been to one of these, but I hear about them in my psychic classes. When I started two years ago in the Beginners level Psychic Development classes, I was intimidated by some of the more advanced students. They were nice, don't get me wrong, but when you're just starting out readings can be incomprehensible. How did they find it so easy to talk and talk? I would get a random image, and I had no idea how that translated to a message. These guys would go on and on, so much that they even gave 15 minute readings at open night! Now its my turn to practice at Open Night! That is, if I can stretch my readings to 15 minutes.  =)

Yesterday I asked for a symbol, and I got three apples. The 1st one was the poison-laced apple from Snow White. The message was "Don't be afraid to take a bite out of life, you'll be enchanted, not poisoned." Next I got another apple, this time Eve's apple from the Tree of Life. The message was about occult spirituality, and the magic we can create when we understand the universe's secrets. Finally I got a series of life changing apples: Eve's Apple from Genesis,  The Beatle's first recording studio,  Steve Job's Apple Computer, and Isaac Newton's gravity apple. The reading was about transformation. Four apples that changed the world, and the symbolism behind those apples can help us change our own lives. 

The whole class was reading for the same guest, they were relevant for that particular person, but I think they can also apply to the rest of us. Most of us have a passion that we're afraid to pursue, and taking that leap can be scary. It is certainly true in my case! But then, we don't have to go it alone! I keep thinking back to some of the concepts I learned at the Kabbalah Centre, especially the Tree of Life and some of their so called Kabbalah Tools. It all links back to that Tree of Life and how we can use energy, thought and action to create the changes we want to see in our lives.

Lady Gaga's "Born This Way"

One of my readers emailed last year to ask what I thought of Lady Gaga. She was worried that her daughter might be influenced by Lady Gaga, and asked if I sensed any negative energy in her music and persona. On some level, I can see where she's coming from. Just think of the imagery, some of the dance scenes and the clothing. She is clearly channeling some of Madonna's shock appeal from the 80's and 90's. Millions of people love it, and this lady was asking me why. 

I'm not a parent, and I wasn't looking to give parenting advice. It was up to her to decide what her kids listen to, assuming they were still young enough for her to control that. I did tell her that I am a big fan of Lady Gaga's, and that I don't sense any negative energy in her music. Quite the opposite! I love some of her songs, especially Bad Romance and Alejandro. I also told her that not everything dark is evil. Sometimes we need a little darkness to embrace our shadow side. I think Lady Gaga appeals to so many people because they see a little bit of their own darkness reflected in her work. And that is OK. 

It reminds me of a class on Spirit Guides and Angels, the teacher told us that not everything dark is bad, and not all that shines is good. One of my Guides is pitch black in color, but he has a very benevolent feeling to him. What matters is how they make you feel, and what your intuition tells you. My intuition tells me Lady Gaga's visual art appeals to the masses because she helps them accept their shadow side. I believe this is the first step in any healing process; Astrology tells us that our shadow is someone else's light. It is knowing we are perfect, just as we are. 

As you may have noticed, I spend a lot of time online looking for fresh inspiration. One of the things I discovered lately is the Born This Way Foundation. It was created by Miss Gaga and her mother in 2011. Their mission is "to foster a more accepting society, where differences are embraced and individuality is celebrated. The Foundation is dedicated to creating a safe community that helps young people with the skills and opportunities they need to build a kinder, braver world." 

It helps youngsters accept aspects of themselves that others might use against them; like race, sexuality, ethnicity, etc. It applauds those who have shown courage to stand up for themselves or others. That sounds like one heck of a mission to me. I found the idea really inspiring, and I also happen to like the song. As a whole, this video is a great blend of the dark and light that we tend to find in Lady Gaga's work. I also think its fitting that she's not wearing much, as this song essentially says "This is me, get over it."  

Let me know what you think! 

 

An Update (2018!) 

My Chakra Healing & Magick book is out! We can use it to heal the shadow with creativity, crystals and intuition. Love yourself and the right people will find you =)

Can Psychic Readings be Fun ?

I gave a great reading in class this week. Maybe it's because I am finally starting to enjoy being put on the spot. I used to get nervous about whether or not I was going to have anything to say. I still get nervous if I am supposed to start talking without a prompt, like cards or visualisations. This one was easier to give because we started with a guided meditation. Everything you imagine in the meditation is somehow related to the client, and my job is to describe and interpret all of the details. It reminds me of dream interpretation, with everyone awake. You can't do this with a client sitting in front of you, but I think I could do it in an email reading. 

We usually start visualising a big door, and walk through the door into a lobby. In the lobby we see a staircase leading down, into a room with a big elevator. The elevator is like the one in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, it takes you up into the sky and then to a Hall of Learning. That Hall is were we go to meet spirit guides and power animals in the meditations. I'm not sure how it works, but I think the staircase down helps to quiet the mind, and then the upward movement of the elevator raises your consciousness. 

This process makes it easier to give readings. Every detail can be interpreted, even the shape and color of the door. If it opens easily, that means something. If you have to kick it down (as I've had to), it means something else. Sometimes you'll see power animals, spirit guides, friends, characters from movies, or even elaborate architecture. Sometimes I get crazy images that remind me of Tim Burton movies. Yesterday I got a scene from Pretty Woman, and that scene helped me understand what the readings was about. 

Everything I saw was so far-fetched that it had to be relevant. I would never make it up. Before I started talking, I asked for a sign and got a scene from the movie. It was Julia Roberts laughing at the shop attendants who had turned her away earlier. I heard the words BIG MISTAKE, HUGE MISTAKE and laughed. The reading was fun to give, and judging by the recipient's reaction I think it was spot on. The whole class laughed at the beginning, became very serious half-way through, and then sort of smiled and nodded at the end. We went from Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman to Buddha on the mountaintop so it was a stretch. I like story arcs =)

The Hanged Man (or Woman)

My last post was on the Ho'oponopono.  I can't write it, but I love mispronouncing it! Oponoponu, or Onupononu. I can laugh myself silly trying to spell it out. Spelling debacles aside, I like the thought behind this Hawaian Healing Mantra. One of the premises of the Onoponono is the idea that our Inner Child is in control (scary thought), and it creates things based on our attitudes. Everything that happens to us - good, bad or in between - is a choice. 

Sometimes we choose things consciously, sometimes not. We also sabotage ourselves unconsciously. I think we all do this to varying degrees and it is something to watch out for. It may also be about paying attention to the signs, and making changes proactively. So what have I created lately in an unpleasant way? I messed up my healing exam, for starters. Which means I will have to put my healing practice on hold for a few months until I can take it again. 

What a pain! 

I am annoyed with myself, especially because my intuition warned me not to make a particular mistake. Unfortunately I was nervous and I didn't make the link. It only dawned on me after I left. Oops! I'll have to take it again in a couple of months. That may be the thought I find least appealing but I'll deal with it when the time comes. In the meantime, I think I might take a sabbatical. Healing has taken up a lot of my time the past two years, and there are other things I would like to catch up on. Friends and family for starters, psychic readings and angel readings, writing, etc. Plus there's that publishing company I've just started, and the books I am planning to launch in the next couple of months. When I left the exam I pulled a card and got the Hanged Man (LOL). This card is about a period of non-action, and looking at things from a different angle.  

I am being philosophical about the whole thing. I have to cut back on something or I'll go mad. Maybe its time I gave healing a rest. I am disappointed but looking at the bright side, I have time to write my books. So back to work it is. Maybe I'll go for a jog first. It is a nice day outside and we don't get a lot of sun in London.

I'm Sorry, Forgive me, Thank You, I Love You

The past couple months I have been playing the victim and using something that happened as work as an excuse to leave. That was really immature of me. I kept thinking "if they don't transfer me soon" I will leave and start a healing business. When the option was finally on the table, I didn't feel the offer was  right for me. Instead I asked for the chance to work part-time. That would give me time to work on my healing and writing, which is what I'm most interested in. The thought had occurred to me on several occasions but I kept pushing it away. Staying in my existing job would have been the safe thing to do. 

Something happened in July that pissed me off, and that is when I decided to go. In hindsight that event helped me out. It gave me the guts to acknowledge what I wanted. Otherwise, I would have stayed on full time, when I really want to do healing. My reasons for staying at my job were mostly fear based. The big question is whether I can sell enough books in my 1st year to keep my work visa in the UK. I need to sell about 10K copies, which doesn't sound impossible. I think I can do it, especially with my family, friends and Facebook friends behind me. I have this neat little support group that I am very grateful for! 

It all started to click yesterday when I googled a healing technique called Ho'oponopono. It is a Hawaiian healing method that requires the healee to take responsibility for every good or bad thing happening in their life. I had heard the theory that thought creates reality. This takes it one step further by encouraging the healee to apologise to themself for creating the situation, forgiving themself, and then thanking God for giving them the chance to start over. The whole process takes seconds, and all you need to do is repeat: 

"I'm sorry, forgive me, thank you, I love you."

By repeating those words, you ask for forgiveness, give it, thank God for giving you a clean slate, and then say I love you to your subconscious. I also hear this exchange is directed at your inner child. The inner child is said to create the external situations and stressors in your life, with your actions, beliefs and thoughts influencing it. I imagine it would also create the good things. You can also apologize to other people, though I'm not sure if this is  done out loud and in person, or just on an energetic level.

The past two days I have been directing my intent at this situation, whilst repeating "I'm sorry, forgive me, thank you, I love you" at myself and at anyone who was involved. Quietly of course, I don't say it out loud. Most of the time I say the words to myself, apologising for creating anger and stress through my reactions. I'll move on to another issue when I am done with this one. Off the top of my head, I think this could work with chronic pain. Louise Hay states that pain is about punishment, so this forgiving and loving meditation could work on it. I'll let you know how I get on with it.
