Diary of a Psychic Healer

By now I have probably taken a dozen courses at psychic school . It never ceases to surprise me how fun and effective they are. Most of my lessons h ave so far have been on how to channel angels and spirit guides, but every now and then I take a break from the angels and try something different. The tutors have different styles as well, so mixing it up takes you out of your comfort zone. This summer I took a wonderful class with psychic medium Geoffrey Beitz , where we used different tools every week to unlock our intuition. Everything you can think of from flowers, to toys and oracle cards - even chairs ( psychometry! )  You’d hold it, look at it or sit on it to get a message. In the other classes, we’ve worked with ribbons, melting wax, jewels and Christmas cards - the piece you’re drawn to has a message.  The only thing your intuition needs is a focus point and a moment of calm (as well as a good  opening up meditation ) to get going. So for ex...

I have been keeping myself busy with angels, astrology and tarot lessons the past few months. It was a privilege to go back to London for the summer, it's where I discovered energy healing and intuition, and where I studied for years before moving to Mexico in the winter of 2014. The term came to an end last week and I've been home for a few days, getting over the jet lag. There is lots to tell so stay tuned!  In the meantime I though we'd try something fun and different, a special interactive reading. Please think of a question and choose three Oracle Decks from the picture,  for Past, Present and Future (or Challenge, Hidden Influences, and Solution). Please share your experiences below. We do these every week on my Diary of a Psychic Healer Facebook Page, you can join the fun here!  Choose Three Icons and Scroll Down for the Meanings! Wizards Tarot, by Corrine Kenner. This is one of my favourite deck...

I am just about done reading a great book by Christopher Penczak,  Buddha, Christ, Merlin : The Three Wise Men For our Age , two of them historical figures, the third a legend. The title caught my eye. I was raised Catholic although I'm also drawn to Buddhism, and from a "what if" point of view very drawn to magical traditions. This book is about how we can blend the three for a more balanced and inclusive approach to spirituality. It's funny because all along, I had an image of a three legged stool in my mind, each leg representing the teachings one of these traditions (Wisdom, Love and Power) and how we topple over if one of these is missing. Imagine my surprise when Penczak used the same metaphor in his conclusion!  The most obvious and potentially worrisome dysfunction would be the use of power without a conscience or concern for others, whether it's magical, economic or political power. I think this is where Buddha and Christ come into play. The first ...

A few weeks ago I did something I NEVER thought I'd do: get up on stage to do Angel Readings in front of a live audience! It was oddly exhilarating, I found myself enjoying it even though I was beyond relieved when I sat down. We had been practicing for weeks in my Angels and Spirit Guides class at school. This class is the main reason I'm in London for the summer, it's the final step on the road to professio nal readings, and leading workshops. I did the foundation and intermediate classes just for the fun of it but moved to Mexico before I could finish. Coming back this summer was a great opportunity as it gave me a strong push, even though I was hoping we wouldn't have to get on stage this summer, I actually enjoyed it and would love to do it again. Now that, I did not expect!  Being on stage is funny because it puts you in the moment . There's not much you can do to prepare, except survey the audience and get a feel for their vibes. I was drawn to one lady...

The past two months I have been taking tarot lessons with the incredibly talented Avril Price . After five years of self-study, it’s been loads of fun interacting with other students and learning from Avril. Class ends next week and our end of term assignment is due. As you may already know, the tarot is divided into the Major Arcana which looks at a Fool's journey through life, and the archetypal life stages he travels through time and time again. The Minor Arcana which looks at struggles and joys of daily life in the suit of fire (creativity), cups (emotion), air (thought) and earth (stability).  The Minor Arcana are easier to grasp and more common in our lives. Our homework is to bring the more elusive Major Arcana to life with a creative project. I opted for movie metaphors, looking at films or characters that match up to the cards. I'm still on the fence with a few of them, so please comment below with your suggestions. In some cases I couldn't think of a singl...
