Get a Free Pet Tarot Reading - Fun!

I found a site that has online tarot readings using a neat deck of cards called the Pet Tarot. In this deck, each tarot symbol has been slightly re-interpreted to incorporate an animal. So, for instance, the snake appears on the "Devil" card, a nice, fertile pig with piglets appears on the "Empress" card, etc.

The reading is automated - so all do is meditate on a question and click on the three cards to turn them over and get your reading.

Go have fun! You deserve it!

The Energy of the Full Moon, Halloween, the Election

I periodically post essays at RumorMillNews.com under the name "LipstickMystic." You'll find this essay I wrote yesterday about the intense energies that we are all experiencing right now....due to a variety of factors, including yesterday's full moon and eclipse, Halloween coming up, and the election here in the U.S. next Tuesday.

If you've been feeling funky or out of sorts, this might help you to understand why. Good news is: It's not just you!

Aura Imaging Systems and the WinAura Camera

Aura Imaging Systems is a company that works with a special camera called the WinAura camera to photograph the colors of the auric field.

You can see photos of people's auric fields at their site and read more about their exciting research.

Also, if you click on the "examples" tab, you'll see some "before" and "after" photos of how people's auras look before and after receiving energy work from a healer.

When a healer, say, works with the healing color of violet, you'll suddenly see violet colors in the subject's energy field.

I love the rainbow colors that would appear to surround us as seen in these photos. You'll see in the "before" and "after" photos how a client's energy field might be muddy or dark red and then, after the healer works on them, their field becomes more luminous and brightly-colored.

Neat stuff. And nice verification of what clairvoyants and energy sensitives have been seeing for thousands of years. See, we're not crazy!

What Water Has to Teach Us

Masaru Emoto is a Japanese researcher who has been investigating how water molecules respond to music, spoken words, and written words.

When music like classical music is played near the water, and then a water molecule is isolated, the molecule will tend to have these gorgeous, snowflake, formations.

When heavy metal music is played near the water, the molecules become all distorted and terrible-looking.

Emoto also did experiments where a phrase, a name, or a word was written down and taped to the outside of a container that held water. It was left there overnight. The next morning, the water molecules' shapes were analyzed. You won't believe the difference between words like "Thank you" and "love" compared to "Adolf Hitler!"

Do take a look at this brief article, which gives an overview of Dr. Emoto's work. He's written books about his research, too, which you can purchase.

If water resonates so clearly with the quality of our emotions and intentions, just think about how our thoughts are influencing the water in our bodies! Our bodies are 3/4ths water!

Bio-photons and Human DNA

If you've already read this month's guest interview at my site with Cynthia Larson, aura researcher and author of the book Aura Advantage, then you may already be curious about the energy field that surrounds the human body. In fact, this energy field doesn't just surround us, but it can be found around everything - from plants to animals to the rocks themselves.

I just stumbled across this essay at Stuart Wilde's site which talks about biophotons. Wilde references an article that originally appeared at an excellent alternative site called http://www.rense.com, run by Jeff Rense. The article Wilde is writing about originally appeared there.

The piece provides info about biophotons, which are light frequencies that researchers are discovering that are given off by our DNA. It's a bit technical, but I do recommend that you look through it, because it's always fascinating to realize how REAL SCIENCE (not junk science as those professionally paid "skeptics" would have you believe) is finding more and more evidence to support what we mystics have been saying all along...namely, that all of creation is alive with a vibrating, pulsating, intelligence, and this energy can be measured by various conventional instruments.

Transdimensional Temple Beings

This is neat article about transdimensional beings who have been appearing in various temples and amongst healers from all over the world, adding their loving, advanced energies to the mix. You'll see photos of one such being, or perhaps a group of beings, and the energy is lovely.

Angels, spiritual guides, and spiritual masters of all sorts love to join in whenever we are truly praying for healing and wisdom. These photos show such energy in action.

If you need a lift, check it out. The energy can be felt as you look at the photos.

Some Astro-Therapy for John Kerry and George Bush

You may or may not appreciate a new piece that I've posted at my site which explores the birth chart of the United States and the astrological underpinnings of John Kerry, George Bush, plus the First Ladies (or potential First Lady, in the case of Theresa Heinz Kerry.)

I know, the onslaught of election coverage has been way too intense, and you're probably sick of it by now.

But I invite you to check out this short, satirical essay, which predicts the outcome of the election, among other interesting things.

Using Color to Remove Entrenched Thinking Patterns

Alijandra is the name of a California woman who is a gifted healer, intuitive, and author. The two of us recently connected, and I couldn’t believe how many wonderful things she has posted at her website. I’ve only begun to skim through some of her articles, but they’re all fabulous.

This one especially caught my eye. It’s about the deeply entrenched thinking patterns or thoughtforms that we tend to carry from one lifetime to the next. She explores the "inability to receive" programming that so many healers and spiritual people are bound up in. Often, this can be based on vows of poverty and obedience that we have taken in past lives, usually lifetimes in which we were members of a religious order.

She provides a simple meditation you can do to start releasing those entrenched thinking patterns and open up to the material abundance of this reality in a guilt-free, appropriate, and perfect way.

Uri Geller and Positive Thinking

Some years ago, I had the opportunity to be a guest on a nationally syndicated radio show where I was given the chance to chat with world-reknowned psychic Uri Geller about spirituality and psychic gifts. The host of the show is a friend of Uri's, a man by the name of Doug Stephan, and Doug hosted a show at the time called Good Day America. I believe he still does.

Uri came on Doug's show every Friday to talk about paranormal subjects, and one day, I was invited to "sit in"with them both to talk about some of my own work as a psychic. The night before, I must have been remote viewing Uri in dreamspace, because I had a very clear vision of him. I saw him surrounded by this wash of gorgeous colors, all pinks and violets and brilliant shades.

The next morning the show went very well, and Uri and Doug were both very generous as they encouraged me to talk about my experiences. During commerical breaks, I mentioned to Uri that I had had a glimpse of his auric field the night before and that it was filled with strong colors, especially violet and rose.

He said, "That's interesting, because right now I am writing a book about auras."

I took this as nice confirmation that I was tuning into real information about Uri, who was very supportive. After the show, he and I talked more on the phone (he was in London while I was in New Jersey.) He was especially interested to find out what I had done over at the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Lab, where I participated in some informal tests. I believe Uri had been there before, too.

Uri Geller has written many books and teaches people how easy it is to unlock their own psychic gifts. Here in this article at his website, he talks about positive thinking and its affect on psi abilities.

You can read the article here and check out his site:

The Brilliant Work of Rupert Sheldrake

Rupert Sheldrake is a brilliant researcher who has done some amazing studies investigating the energy connections between people, plants, and animals. He has written many books. One of his most exciting books explores people's telepathic links to their pets. He has found, for instance, that a certain percentage of dogs and cats seem to know when their owners are headed home. Dogs will instantly go to the door or window of the home and sit there, waiting expectantly, the very minute the person leaves work to head home. That type of thing.

You can read more about his writings, his research, and his ideas at:

The Healing Power of Music Has Been Proven

Did you know that certain music has been proven to affect the brain, transporting it into a light alpha or "meditative" state? This article talks about Baroque music (a style of classical music created by famous composers like Bach, Haydn, Handel, and Mozart) and how listening to this music produces measurable affects in the brain.

I've long heard about the healing power of this type of music, and when I was growing up, I listened to it all the time. My favorite composers were Vivaldi and Bach. Also, I played classical piano, so I was lucky to be able to GET INSIDE the music. When you're actually playing these pieces on an instrument, the energy stream is very powerful. I do think that listening to this style of music really helped with my spiritual awakening, which happened in my teens. My psychic abilities took off when I was about 16 during a period when I was heavily immersed in this music.

Certain classical music has a frequency of 7.5 cycles per second, which is the same cycle that our brains are in when we are in an Alpha state of consciousness, or a light meditative state. It's also the frequency that is present in the ionosphere, the upper layer of the Earth's atmosphere. That layer also vibrates at 7.5 cycles per second, which is called the Schumman Resonance.

Hip-hop fans, I'm afraid that THAT style of music is on the other side of the brain wave spectrum.

People Exhibiting Supernatural "Powers"

Wonder What Faith You Are? Use the Belief-O-Matic

Beliefnet.com is a site that investigates all religions and faiths, without placing an emphasis on any one spiritual path as being the "best" one. Since spirituality is such a personal issue for people, and many folks don't even feel that they belong to one particular faith, it's fun sometimes to find out just what your beliefs are (and aren't.)

The Belief-o-matic is a quiz that leads you through a short list of questions about the nature of your beliefs about God, life after death, and other spiritual matters, helping you to define just what your beliefs may be. After you plug in your answers to the quiz, it tallies up your responses and shows you which faiths your beliefs fall under. You can find out whether you tend more towards the faiths of Buddhism, Taoism, Liberal Christianity, etc.

It's not a perfect quiz. I don't think it lays out any of the major beliefs that are involved with shamanism, paganism, or metaphysical/gnostic Christianity very well at all. In fact, it ignores them. I think the quiz is weighted to lump these all under the category of "New Age," which in my opinion is a bad fit. The "New Age" has come to encompass everything from outright Satanic practices to green environmentalism - too much lumped under one term.

Still, it's a fun quiz. I found that my beliefs fit 100% into Unitarian Universalism and some 98% with liberal Quakers. Hmm.

And here I thought, growing up in a town called Quakertown, Pennsylvania, that the Quakers were kind of boring. Maybe I'll have to rethink this.

Then again, I hold with Groucho Marx' statement, which goes roughly: "I wouldn't belong to any club that would have me as a member." I'm not much of a joiner. I'm always thinking so far outside of the box that people who celebrating being INSIDE the box (even if it's a fine faith like Unitarianism) get pretty peeved with me.

Dream Interpretation Site

I found this dream interpretation site that has an index where you can look up dreams and their meanings. I don't necessarily believe that dreams have single interpretations, because the language of our subconscious is a unique thing. But some dream interpretations can be spot on.

Check out some of your dreams in this index and see if the meaning that's listed makes sense to you. What do YOU think?

Combining Spirituality and Money

This is a great little essay that gets right to the heart of how people find it challenging to balance spirituality and money. It takes a lot of concentration to bring either thing into your life, and too often, we sacrifice one for the other. I like what this author has to say about the energy components of both things. You will, too!

One Man's Spiritual Awakening - Dale's Story

Dale writes on another website about his spiritual awakening experience. His journey involved out of body travel or what is commonly called astral projection. I think his narrative is one you'll enjoy, because it sums up what so many people are going through when they feel that spark of sudden connection with God/Goddess/Great Spirit/A Higher Power. After that moment, everything changes, and quite often people develop psychic abilities which they must integrate into their daily life.

One neat thing that Dale talks about is how he is very aware of helping trapped spirits in the astral planes who don't realize that they're dead, kind of like the kid in the movie Sixth Sense did. Only Dale is aware of doing this more while he's sleeping.

I do this, too, have been for years. There's a whole series of books in me about THAT. Sigh. Got to get these books out!

You see, most people have no preparation for the death experience. It's really horrible how this is one thing that EVERYONE, regardless of race, religion, income level, or cultural background is DEFINITELY going to go through...and none of our teachers prepare us for it.

A huge amount of spirits who pass on....I mean a HUGE amount....do not make a clean passage. They end up in a kind of netherworld, neither here nor there, not realizing that they are dead, yet unable to interact with the physical world in the way that they were accustomed to.

People with a natural understanding for the various astral layers often end up helping these people during their sleep. They also help them during their waking time. I do both.

One thing you can do, anybody can do, to help discarnates is to clear an area through a simple prayer:

"Dear God/Goddess/Great Spirit, please clear out all discarnates from.....(this hospital; this school; this city block; this town; a five mile radius, etc.) and take them off to the Light. Re-connect them with their spiritual guides and angels and with the loving power of creation."

Then you visiualize all of the discarnate spirits journeying upward to a higher dimension of loving experience. Heaven, if you prefer to call it that. You might also envision a healing color, like gold, pink, or violet, bathing the area and magnetizing all of the discarnates, taking them to their spiritual home.

Just believing in God or Jesus or Mohammed will not ensure that your spirit rejoins that energy at death. You have to develop the ability to understand your own spiritual energy and the mechanisms of the human soul.

It's a vast problem, and it's growing worse as the electromagnetic fields of the Earth deteriorate. Part of this is due to energy pollution - all of the mucking about we've done that has interfered with the Earth's natural magnetic field. More spirits are getting diverted, "lost," or misdirected after they die. Sensitives can often "see" or sense them in huge clumps, like a lumpy grey mass, hanging over certain locations. Not a good thing.

More power prayer is needed on behalf of the many, many innocents who haven't a clue that the spiritual realities exist....much less that they need to have some control over their own personal energy in order to make a peaceful passing.

Always, the prayers of other people make a big difference, so if there is any loved one in your own family you want to pray for, it's never to late to pray that they be reconnected with their own level of Higher Power/God energy. That they be linked in to their angels and spiritual guides again, who can always lead them to a safe and appropriate place.

Such vast issues. Sigh. Sometimes, I wonder if anybody's out there, if anybody cares, and if anybody is listening? These are vital issues, folks. People like me who can perceive on multiple levels of reality are TELLING you that the single most important thing for you to be doing right now is to get to know your soul. Not in a religious way. In a hands-on, spiritual way, seeking direct experiences that will teach you what you need to know.

The best thing to do is to surround yourself with the writings, teachings, recordings, etc. of people who have already mapped out the territory. We can help you.

Reading Dale's story and his interview at this link will also help you:

I especially like one of her articles, "I Want the Earth Plus 5%." It talks about our bizarre constructions around the accumulation of money and how they are out of flow with the energies of the Earth and Mother Nature.

What is Soul Loss? Article on Soul Retrieval

Someone was asking me about different healing techniques and how you can heal issues that may stem from past lives. I recommended that she work with someone who is experienced with soul retrieval, and I wanted to explain it to her in a clear way.

The idea is that every time we suffer from trauma, whether it be physical, emotional, or personal, our personal energy can fragment or split off from us. Have you ever gone through a really stressful time and felt like you just weren't yourself? Soul loss may have happened around that time. Symptoms of soul loss can include prolonged depression, apathy, loss of enthusiasm, and chronic fatigue.

The Native American and Celtic and indigenous peoples of Africa have long worked with the technique of soul retrieval, where the shaman journeys through meditation to connect with those lost aspects of yourself and bring them back to you. This is powerful work, and it is the best way I know to heal long-term patterns and issues that you've really had troubles getting rid of.

I found a short essay by a woman who first noticed that she had experienced soul loss and since then became trained in doing soul retrieval for people. Please note that I don't know this woman and can't vouch for her skills, so please use your own discernment. But I loved this simple essay she wrote on her website. She has also published a book on self-healing that teaches people to apply many of these techniques of soul retrieval in their own life. It's worth checking out.

I do a lot of work with these issues, too, but I'm not able to offer one on one healing sessions for people at this time. Instead, I'm focusing on writing and education on these issues. So do look for my books to start being available for purchase off of my website soon!

Meanwhile, do check out this short essay. It explains the phenomenon of soul loss really well.

Who Says You Can't Materialize Gold Out of Thin Air?

This woman apparently can. Too wild!

http://modena.intergate.ca/personal/alahoy/katie.htm

This is stuff that mystics like Sai Baba and others have long been reported to do. Controversy inevitably surrounds people who can do these "apports" (manifesting objects out of thin air.)

Still, masters like Jesus and other great spiritual teachers did these things. Not only that, they promised that we'd all learn how to do them, given time!

Stories like this woman's would seem to reinforce this as not just being possible but probable, once we learn to tap into the metaphysical energies of creation on a more conscious basis.

Cool beans, I say. Or, rather, cool gold chunks.
