A Little Ancestral Clearing ...

What a great week! I had two great readings and a distant healing all the way from Mexico! I actually feel much better because of it, and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The 1st reading was about my job and how I should just chill out and enjoy it. What I'm going through now is a stepping stone that will help me reach my goals in the next couple years. 

"Enjoy it!" 

The second reading actually came with the distant healing, and it was about family, career, relationships and a bit of ancestral issues that needed clearing and healing. My mom went to see a healer in Mexico who worked on clearing my family's spiritual DNA, and then cleared me through my mom. Based on what my mom told me after the session, the healer worked on clearing psychological and emotional traits that can be passed down through the generations. For example, someone might have a stubborn streak running through the family.  There can also be positive streaks like optimism, joy. The positives you want to keep, the negatives you want to clear so that you can move upwards and onwards.

What I really like about healing is that you can take something that is pretty good to begin with and make it even better. We have no idea how great we can have it. It isn't until someone shows you what life could be like if only you worked on your ego, etc, that you start to register the possibilities. The other great thing about healing (as if there were only two great things about healing!) is that the healer can clear blocks that the client isn't aware of. If you've been wearing blinders all your life, you wouldn't realise it until someone takes them off. The healer may also be able to pinpoint something that the client is already working on, and facilitate the process by shifting stuck energy. I think this is what the distant healing session has done for me. Will let you know when I start seeing major breakthroughs in my life.  =)

Has technology made us more or less psychic?

I read an interesting article the other day. It caught my eye because the BBC was reporting a set of telepathic goggles that the military is working on. At 1st I thought they were trying to teach soldiers telepathy, not the case! Men Who Stare at Goats probably talked them out of that idea, if it ever came up! This article was about goggles that will somehow read thoughts, encrypt them, and broadcast them to the rest of the team. Sounds a lot like the telepathic communication that the pack of wolves had in the Twilight series. I suppose if you're in a combat situation it comes in very handy. In civilian life though, I would much rather be intuitive and tap into psychic and energetic pathways. 

The army isn't the only group that is mimicking psychic skills with technology. Google is rumoured to be launching a new set of reading glasses that include Google Search, Maps, GPS and a host of other things. You can ask questions and it will give you the answers along the way! How cool! That is just what my spirit guides do, though to be honest I have only used them once or twice with direction. At the time I was driving, lost, and without a mobile. Their assistance and clairvoyant messages came in really handy! Google's glasses are probably a huge win for technology, but what will they do to our intuition? I really think that a lot of these huge investments in technology are only compensating for the fact that as a society we have lost many of our natural gifts.

I've also been thinking about the impact that mainstream media can have on our intuition. As a kid I spent a lot more time reading books than watching TV. I really loved seeing the stories play out in my mind and immersing myself in these alternate realities. Your mind's eye can bring these to life and take you to that location so much better than a movie or a TV show can. I think my being a book nerd has really helped me develop my clairvoyance. My visualisation and imagination are strong, the only thing that changed is the source of the inspiration. I really think my being a book nerd as a kid has helped me develop my clairvoyance throughout life. Reading books and visualising the scenes works your clairvoyant muscles. This makes it a lot easier to step into a guided meditation, or to give a clairvoyant reading. I think reading has made me a lot more psychic. Watching TV, the news and constantly being bombarded by messages from other media will probably have the opposite effect. It is harder to notice your intuitive guidance when you're being saturated by the media.

Quieting the Mind is a Vacation in Itself

Today I tried a new approach when I was closing down my healing client after our first session. I asked two of her overworked chakras to take a holiday and try to switch off for the next week or two! One of them readily accepted and the other one pushed back LOL. 

This client had an overactive brow/mind that was feedings lots of worrying thoughts into the solar plexus. This in turn, manifests as anxiety and stress, which the client is very aware of. She asked me to work on anxiety in the healing session and after clearing, balancing and healing the SP for about 10 minutes I was finally led to the brow. What else did I do during the session? I cleared her channel and there was a lot of clutter near the solar plexus. I also worked on her heart chakra and put in a strong grounding chord from the heart to the centre of the earth. 

It wasn't until I was closing her down that this idea of a holiday came to mind. I've read about chakras switching off for a short period when they need a break, but I had never thought of suggesting it. Her solar plexus really welcomed the idea of a prolonged holiday. I told it that the heart could take over for the next week and intercept any worrying thoughts. Hopefully these will just go down the grounding chord to the centre of the earth. Next time I do a healing I will talk to the solar plexus again and ask it to send anything it doesn't want down that grounding chord. 

The brow chakra is going to be a tricky one to work with. Her mind is still very active, and there is a big difference between thinking, worrying and seeing. What our minds eye really needs to do is see clearly so that our heart chakra can process the information and make a decision. For those of us who are very analytical, the problems start to arise when we let our brow chakra hang on to all of the information and expect it to make a decision on it's own. Things are more than what they appear to be, and only our heart chakra can make sense of it all. This healing client was a bit of a mirror for myself as well. I've spent a lot of time lately worrying and thinking about the future. Instead I should just let it slide and wait for things to happen - if they ever do! So many of the things that we worry about never happen. It is more relaxing to go with the flow and deal with things as they come. If we are grounded and centred I'd like to think the universe and our guides will send warning signs before something big happens. 

I will take my own advice and give my brow chakra a holiday for the rest of the month. I am also going to go off coffee - for real this time - and I am going to work on being grounded, in my body and aware of my surroundings. This will help me take it easy and I will only deal with what is right in front of me! A nice mental holiday!

What is Next for Me?

It's ironic how life takes us in directions that we don't expect or want. Three months ago I had a job that I liked well enough, though to be honest I was already a bit bored and looking at other options.  I work in marketing and in the past I've worked on lots of fun  projects. The perks are amazing. One of the coolest was working with the NFL and then getting tickets for the Giants-Pats Super Bowl in Phoenix. Eli Manning is amazing.  =) 

Marketing can be a lot of fun. My line manager worked on a completely different part of the business though, and though I did occasionally help out with her projects I am not interested in doing her job full time. I like working with consumer insights, campaigns, new product launches, etc. If you work on a dynamic brand there is tons to do and it can really be a lot of fun. Exciting, challenging, varied, etc etc etc. I don't enjoy marketing as much as healing, but coupled with a cool work environment it can be a good career path. Possibly not my vocation but a good day job ... 

If you were to plot a my level of interest on a graph, where the X-Axis is Passion and the Y-Axis is "Time-Fly-Ability",  energy healing and spirituality would be in the upper right hand corner at the very limit. Brand management would still be high on the "Time-Flies" scale but not so high on "Passion".  The line of work that my boss was in would fall in the lower-left-hand quadrant, nil for Passion/Interest. And time doesn't fly if you're not having fun. 

About two months ago my line manager left, I got promoted, and since then I have been juggling her projects and mine. To make it more fun our PA also left. What my line manager used to do is important, so my old job has been re-assigned  and now I'm 100% focused on what she used to do.  Lower-left-hand-quadrant stuff. 

Grrrrr. 

This is only supposed to be temporary. They're going to find someone to replace my boss, and fingers-crossed someone to replace me. Working in a corporate environment is like playing with legos, a whole lot of pieces have to fit together for people to move from one job to another.  Right now nothing would make me happier than being able to skip this step altogether, but that won't be possible. Plenty of people hate their jobs so I suppose I can be dissatisfied with mine for a couple of months?  How bad can it be? I'm hoping when I get into the details it will be a little bit more interesting and challenging. If time flies a little bit I'll be happy. 

I'm also thinking there has to be a lesson in all of this for me. Not sure what it could be ... is it patience? The "King of Wands" from my last post tells me I need to work on my leadership skills.  I will take that on-board for now, and think about my options in the background. I'm going home for 2 weeks in May and when I'm back I shall start thinking about my next steps.  My notice period is a couple months anyway, so even if I threw in the towel I 

Grrrrr ...

I was thinking about this today while I was out shopping in High Street Kensington. There are a couple ways to look at it, one is that I'm stuck. I don't want to adopt this attitude.  The other is that I am merely "baby-sitting" this job for the time being, and in the near future I will be doing something I love. The question is, what do I want that new job to look like and where will I find it? Is it still in marketing? Is it healing? Is it writing? Healing and Writing are definitely in the top quadrant. Brand management is a close 2nd,  and it has the added benefit of a stable income and job security. 

So I wonder, what comes next? It is time to think about what I want to do with my life, and then manifest it. I feel like I'm at a cross roads and there are actually lots of options. At least I know what I don't want to do, and that will force a change in the coming months. Change is good. This is my silver lining  ...   =)

The King of Wands

A couple days ago I bought a really cool tarot deck. I love it because it takes you through four greek myths, and ties each scene to a different card in the series. So say the Suit of Cups is about a love story, with the ups, downs and steps that you might expect in a normal relationship. The Suit of Wands is about that creative spark that drives us to create wonderful things in our jobs and in our hobbies. Think it also has to do with how to act on our ambition.  

I've been playing around with it the past few days and have actually done multiple mini-readings on myself to test my knowledge of the cards and also to test my intuition (if that's the right word). One of the things I asked about was my current job, and funny enough the card I pulled reflected one of the things that I'm supposed to work on this year:  Leadership! 

This isn't to say that I'm not a leader now, but what I need to work on is becoming more of a people leader; taking responsibility and initiative. I think the more you advance in the corporate world the more of a leader you need to be. And in life. I am sure it will come in handy if I ever make the move to full-time healer/writer/intuitive. With this in mind I wasn't too surprised when I pulled the following cards last night: 

• Knight of Wands:  Juliet Sharman-Burke tells us this often signifies a change of residence, because the individual feels to cramped in their current surroundings. This is so me! Moving half-way across the world because I was bored and cramped 2 years ago, and I'm still a bit of a nomad. And now my sights are set on healing, but that is definitely part of my life plan .... 

• Ten of Wands: Poor little soul who is overburdened by a really heavy load of sticks. Half them they could dump, and the rest they could carry in a much more convenient way. So true!  I could take a lot of my plate and still be full. This being the 2nd card tells me what I should do. Instead I find myself drifting back to that Knight of Wands and wanting to skeddadle. Not the way forward ... 

• King of Wands:  To quote Juliette Sharman-Burke, this is "the spirit of leadership, the belief that one has a better idea worth promulgating and working to make it manifest." It is also about engaging people and getting them on your side. LOL I wonder what is in store for me here! Maybe soul healing on a much larger scale? I like the sound of that   =) 

I thought this reading was fantastic because I have the qualities of the "Knight" and need to work on becoming a "King". The Queen isn't anywhere in that reading and I'm wondering how one goes about hopping from point A to point C.  The second card connects the dots -> I need to choose my projects carefully and decide what I will focus on.  Again this is something my boss told me to work on LOL. Funny how you can hear the same message in real life and then see it in the cards. It really hit home when I saw the spread, in part because it confirmed what I already knew, but mostly because the cards are so VISUAL.

Past Life Traumas of the Physical Kind

Today was another first in my healing sessions! I was working with a Healee who complained of headaches and migraines. Wasn't entirely sure what to do with migraines and we are often told that the head is a very sensitive area to begin with. I went straight for his feet and grounding and channeled healing energy upwards towards his brow and crown chakra, with the intent to gently clear them. 

When that was done I felt moved to work on the solar plexus and the brow chakra, with my hands about 4-5 feet off the body. My dad used to get migraines a lot and it reminds me of him sometimes. I have read up on migraines in my healing books and it will often be tied to the brow chakra's symbolic sight, the client's fearlessness to see their future and their life clearly. The fearlessness can also be affected by the solar plexus, which also happens to be paired with the brow chakra. For this reason I spent a good deal of time working on my client's solar plexus as well as their head. Finally I moved on to the heart-crown pairing for clearing, balancing and healing.  

How do I choose what I work on during a session? Sometimes I cover the bases that I am taught in class. Other times I will remember what I read in a book, so in the case of migraines I worked on the crown and brow primarily. When this isn't enough to cover everything, my clairvoyance or clair-sentience will send me a sign. Today I was pretty much done with the healing session, and had moved to ground the client and close him down. I used a huge grounding cord to draw all of the excess energy from his aura and then send it to the ground, and then used my intent to desensitise each of his chakras. I will visualise a flower petal closing down over each chakra, so that it is contained and protected but not shut. 

I was almost done closing him down when I felt a pain on my skull, around the back on the right side. It was dull but persistent, and told me that I wasn't done with the healing session. When this happens it is important to acknowledge it and then send it away - otherwise as a healer you might hang on to other people's aches and pains!  I asked the pain to tell me what it meant, and  a page from Barbara Brennan's Hand's of Light came to my mind. It is from the chapter where she talks about how past life injuries can cause severe aches and pains. This could be the case if someone was killed in a car accident, or in a war and the injury isn't fully healed from their etheric template. I got the feeling the migraines were linked to an injury from a past life, and that healing that could relieve the migraines by clearing the memory of the injury. 

The healing session went on for an extra 10-15 minutes while I worked on the head injury.  I put my hands on his shoulders and asked the injury to show me what had happened and where the pain was located. Then I sat behind his and held my hands on either side of his head, just a few inches off his skull. I visualised the injury, the pain and the memory has a reddish haze around his head and used the healing energy to clear it upwards and away from his head. Whenever we remove something from the energy field, even if it's a bad memory or a trauma, we need to fill that space with gold healing light. I put my hands around his head again, and channeled gold healing energy all over his head, brain, and even the top of his spine. Finally I put my hands on his shoulders one last time and asked for a good dose of gold energy to fill his up and continue healing throughout the week. I don't think I'm quite done, but that will hold over until our next appointment and it will also enable the healing to continue when I am not there. 

I didn't mention the past life injury to the client when I was done with the healing session. He did feel the energy during the session, but I don't think it will do him any good to know that he may have had an accident in a past life. He may not believe in past lives to begin with, and having that conversation might cast "doubt" and "skepticism" on the healing. What are your thoughts on this? I can't say that I'm 100% convinced that past lives are real, but believing in them makes it easier for me to make sense of things. Past lives put astrology into context and they also make for very interesting discussions on Memories of the Soul! Clients don't need to know what we "see" during a healing session, the healing will still work regardless. I also think I have a deep rooted fear of quack-healers who go about scaring people, so I would rather not go there at all.
