The Magical Law of Individual Realities

I have been getting ready for the New Year with a series of posts on Achieving Peace and Prosperity. My New Years Resolution will be to apply these insights in my own life. It's time to put my theories to the test. Last week I covered The Magical Power of Compassion, and how we can use kindness and generosity to consciously transform our lives. Compassion is an essential quality on the road to Peace and Prosperity. 

Today we're moving onto The Magical Law of Individual Realities, and how we can work with it to influence our surroundings. The theory is that our unique experiences, and how we interpret those experiences create a set of beliefs. Those beliefs act as mirrors and magnets to create and attract situations that reinforce said beliefs. We create our reality: what is true for me may not be true for you. And what's possible for one person may not be possible for another. We all live in the same physical world, in theory we're all capable of the same progress, but sometimes our beliefs get in the way. There's a terrible anecdote I heard a while about about circus elephants, and how one of the baby elephant's legs is chained to the ground. As a child the elephant isn't strong enough to break the chain and it grows up believing it can't. As an adult, that false belief is the only thing that keeps it from breaking free and escaping the circus.  

This is why its vital to examine our beliefs, our assumptions and to release the ones that colour our worldview in a negative way. These might be the result of conditioning, what we grew up hearing from our parents - or even things we experienced in past lives. There are plenty of tools that we can use to release these beliefs, including energy healing, affirmations, introspection and even education, if there's a topic that we are not particularly knowledgeable of. To give you a human example, someone with a business background may tell you that you have to spend money to make money. Invest in your business, in yourself, build and strengthen your capabilities, etc. Whereas someone with a miser mentality may be prone to hoarding their wealth and seeing it dwindle over time. A good finance, marketing or business class would help the miser expand his or her perspective about wealth creation.  

It's about unlearning beliefs that hold us back, so that we can unlock our true potential. Our beliefs influence our actions, and these shape the outcome. So take some time to consider your beliefs, your fears and any assumptions about the world. The idea today was to give you food for thought. Please comment with any ideas, questions or experiences related to individual beliefs and realities.

Online Angel Reading Lessons!

The past year or so I have been toying with the idea of teaching angel readings and energy healing online, but my immense sense of procrastination kept getting in the way. No more! Today I finally went ahead and tested Google + hangouts as an online teaching tool. It went well! I was also lucky to have a very enthusiastic and talented student. Thank you Sara! As luck would have it, the others called in sick, which gave us a chance to iron out the technical glitches without having everyone on the line. :-) 

I also discovered that these Google chats can be taped and uploaded straight to Youtube, which could make for a fun video blog. But I digress ... I wanted to log on today to let you know that my live, online workshops will be starting in the New Year. With one teacher, a handful of psychic students and plenty of angelic TA's. Though in all likelihood, I'll be the facilitator, and the angels the real teachers. 

Please get in touch if you'd like to sign up. Today's class was an intro to energy management tools like grounding, clearing and protecting yourself, before "opening up" and connecting with the angels. In my psychic school days, I attended weekly classes like these, where we'd hone out skills in a fun and friendly environment. Now that I have moved abroad, I would love to take that lovely angelic energy wherever I go

Here is a guided meditation to get you started! 💕

The Magical Power of Compassion

Today we're looking at The Magical Power of Compassion. That's right! One of many levers that you can pull to bring Peace and Prosperity into your daily life, and to your community as well. This post is the second in a series on Peace and Prosperity, leading up to the New Year (see link below). 

1) Channeling your Generosity     

A couple years ago I took classes at the Kabbalah Centre, London. This is where I discovered that generosity is a marvellous tool that we can use to bring good luck and "miracles" into our lives. The K-Centre calls it spiritual technology, and I found the process to be truly magical. The theory is based on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life and the ten spheres of light (or the ten luminous emanations), one of which corresponds to our physical world, the rest to the spiritual realms. 

The theory is that by restricting and sharing 10 percent of our resources, be it time, energy, knowledge or money – we can tap into the unlimited source of abundance on the other side of the veil, bringing it into our physical reality. You can do this by volunteering, mentoring or coaching others, by donating to a spiritual, social or ecological charity, etc. It's also possible to share less formally, by taking time out of your day to help a family member or a colleague. It's about sharing with no strings attached, and trusting that the Universe will reward you at the right time and place. The 10% ratio is the secret, whether its time, money, or energy shared. 

It's been a while since I took the class, but two ideas are etched in my mind: Sharing (generosity) and Restricting (see here). You can transform your life by using these tools. Please note, this is how I apply the Kabbalah Centre's spiritual technology. 

2) The Magical Power of Compassion
   
Kindness also brings light to the world in other ways, and this is where The Magical Power of Kindness and Compassion come into play. I’m sure you’ve noticed how some people, especially strangers, will be visibly surprised when you help them. It’s so unexpected that their faces light up. Unwarranted acts of kindness restore our faith in humanity, at a time when the world sorely needs to believe in itself. Whenever we surprise someone with kindness, we erode the energy of cynicism that has found its way into the collective unconscious. This feeling is heavier in some places than others. 

Earlier this year I moved to Mexico, a beautiful country that has, unfortunately, been plagued by crime and corruption. While I love the culture (after all this is where I was born) it has been been sad to witness the belief that everyone is a crook and that no one can be trusted. A myth that I like to dispel by telling a story. My sister came to visit this summer and on her way back to the airport, she forgot her iPhone in the taxi. Now, people here tend to be especially wary of cab drivers. Don’t take gypsy cabs, make sure it's tracked, etc. 

Well wouldn’t you know it, the cab driver saw the iPhone, got out of the car and ran after her into the terminal, making sure she left with her phone. Whenever people start to moan about the situation here, I tell that story and the mood lightens. 

While it may be basic human decency not to steal a phone, that’s what we need to hear right now. These experiences change the way we approach the world. We can all be agents for positive change if we make a conscious decision to let kindness and compassion guide our actions. If you're wondering, compassion comes into play when we remember that everyone is equally deserving of our attention. Put yourself in their shoes ask yourself you can do to be of service.

Controlled Remote Viewing with Lyn Buchanan

Last year I signed up for a class on Remote Viewing. It was pretty cool, not that different from what I had done before even though the approach is a lot more structured. You start with a blank piece of paper, write down a number for your RV target and then go through a series of questions that are answered intuitively. 

Read about my first remote viewing class {link} to get a better idea of what it's like. I only took the beginners level class and would love to go back for more. My tutor was Debby Kay Edwards. I do hope she publishes a book one day with all of her exciting stories, tutorials and intuitive advice. Visit Debbie Kay's at silentwhispers.com.

This interview with Remote Viewing expert Lyn Buchanan will give you an idea of how it's been used.

Peace and Prosperity on Earth

It's been two weeks since my last post and that long since my last radio show. Thank God for impromptu vacations, they make life more interesting, don't they? Now I'm back and ready to get going again. I'm also getting ready for my New Year's Resolution in 2015, which is to live life as a joyful, abundant and compassionate human being. I'm halfway there but it could be more conscious. The resolution was brought about by a comment on Facebook. Thank you Denise for this question:  

What is the purpose of us being here? I mean really - if we are infinite beings why would we choose to come here to experience disease and violence and sadness, even it it comes with joy and love too? 

Now that's a biggie, one that I don't know the answer to. When I tuned in, I got this overwhelming feeling that "it" was never meant to be that way. The sadness, the violence and the suffering is not part of any master plan that we are meant to experience, and maybe, just maybe, our souls choose to come to Earth because they know that things can be different. We have a choice, as individuals and as a society. I also got the sense that most of the suffering we see in the world has been  created by humans, and we inflict it on ourselves, on each other and on the planet. Again, it was never meant to be this way. We can create a different reality for ourselves.


Green is the Color of Prosperity

The question them becomes, how? I asked upstairs, as my healing tutors used to say, and got three words in response: history, economy and compassion. I'm guessing that the first word references our socio-political history. What have we done in the past to create the inequality in the world? Poverty is largely the result of our economic and educational systems. So is the damage we are  currently doing to the planet. This also brings me to the concept of economy, which I interpret as Prosperity: enjoying an abundance of health, wealth and happiness. It's about covering our basic emotional, mental and physical needs so that we can individually pursue activities that make our heart sing. Not necessarily about the Louis Vuitton bag, or the fancy car. What makes a country prosperous, what makes you feel prosperous? There are lots of levers we can pull on the road to prosperity, whether it's work ethic, manifesting or joy. 

The last reference is probably the most important one, and that's compassion. I don't foresee violence, suffering or unhealthy competition disappearing until we make changes that will benefit all of the players involved. Being compassionate and merciful is about helping someone when you have no "personal" reason to do so. Maybe they messed up and found themselves in a tough spot, maybe they're from a different race or nationality, or maybe you feel that helping them would come at your own expense. This last "maybe" can be the trickiest, but if we shift our mentality from one of scarcity to one of abundance, we'll realise that its possible for both sides to prosper. People often ask if I believe in God, and I do, but I would much rather believe in humanity. When we believe in our own power, we'll see the solution to these problems. Stay tuned for more on peace and prosperity, as we count down to 2015!

Intuition vs Imagination: How to Know the Difference

I'm behind with the transcript from last week's radio show. Life got in the way but back on track! The topic was how to tell the difference between intuition and imagination. There will be moments when we wonder if the message we receive is wishful thinking or fear. While I am still figuring this out for myself, these tools have helped me find my confidence. Without further ado, here they are ...  

1) Say What Comes to You 

If you are giving a reading to someone else, whether it is an oracle reading where we look at cards - or a clairvoyant reading where images come to mind - just put the message out there. The best we can do is to trust what is coming to us, no matter how goofy or illogical, and just say it. This opens up the channel through which we receive information so that more of it will come through. There is a certain degree of risk to the ego in readings. Our ego doesn't want to be wrong, to lose face. Just go ahead and say it, you can also take the pressure off by telling the recipient that you're unsure about it. Its the best way to learn. 


A couple years ago I was sitting in a clairvoyance class. One of my classmates was connecting with my spirit guides to give me a message. She saw a wizard, but pushed the image away when she thought it had to be her imagination. I had been seeing the same wizard, and I had also pushed him away because I thought it was MY imagination. Luckily she mentioned it as a laugh, and wouldn’t you know, the message was to trust the wizardly image and listen. He was there to teach me about manifesting, co-creating and healing. So if something ludicrous comes to mind, say it anyway.

2) Ground and Clear Yourself 

Of course when we are reading for ourselves, it can be harder to make that distinction, which brings me to the second part of the answer. Intuitive thoughts that scare us are usually our ego/imagination. In my experience, if our angels want to alert us they do it in a matter of fact way, without fear. The more grounded, clear and protected our energy is, the less we access that side of our subconscious.  

Or you maybe you got an message that sounds an awful lot like wishful thinking. Play the Lottery! Go to the Casino! Wouldn't that be nice? If it sounds too good to be true, slow down and do a sense check. Ground yourself, be realistic and sleep on it. 

3) When in doubt, ask for confirmation! 

We can ask our angels, our guides and our intuition to confirm the message with a sign. Tell the universe to show you three butterflies, or three green cars in the next hour if the message you received is real. Make sure the sign is relatively rare but not possible. If you are going to be in a room with no windows for three hours, a butterfly might be hard to come by (unless it randomly pops up on your computer, in an email or on a screensaver, etc). Set a time limit, a day if you can wait. An hour if you can't. And relax! 

You can also ask your body for confirmation. A friend introduced me to the idea of the human body as a pendulum that gives yes or no answers. Stand up and lean back just a bit, so your weight is on your heels and you’re teetering off balance (somewhere safe, please!) Start by saying a phrase that is 100% true: My name is REGINA, for example.  When you tell the truth, your body should tilt forward ever so slightly. Then go with an obvious lie: I was born in outer space. Your body will tilt backward quickly, careful not to fall down! 

When you get the hang of this, you can use it to test your intuition on the go. Otherwise you can also use angel cards, tarot or another oracle to ask for confirmation. With tarot card you could set the intention that odd numbers are yes, even numbers are NO and all the rest are "we don't know/or can't answer" If for example, you pull the Five of Swords it means YES, while cautioning you to think it through. The suit of swords is about mental acuity, planning and the use of reason. The details may need ironing out and revision before moving forward. 

Bonus Tip on Clairvoyant Images .... 

One of the first classes I attended was with a wonderful teacher named Sue Allen - we were introduced to archangels and teacher guides that day in a workshop that consisted of clairvoyant meditations. Sue told us that when we ask to see the angel or the guide, and an image came to mind, just try to change it. If it is real you won't be able to manipulate the image - it keeps switching back! 

For example if we see a pair of big dusty angel wings and try to make them look light and fluffy (the way we think angels are), the wings will go back to heavy and dusty. When an image is real, it reverts to the original image. If it comes from our imagination we are easily able to change it. That particular tip has come in very handy. And always, we ground, clear and shield our space before meditating to be sure we only connect with angels and guides that are there to help us heal and evolve.
