I do not want to reinforce the notion that empaths need to be sensitive, vulnerable, or peace loving. There are angry ones out there too!

Highly sensitive people sometimes are a little self conscious, sometimes defensive, often times needing a lot of attention and care. This ranges all the way from the spectrum of highly sensitive people to people who do not appear to be compassionate. All people want approval. Does this sound like you?

It can sometimes become such an obsession for any empathic personality to please others and they can often let themselves be lead, and frequently feel the need approval. All of us are this way, but I need to stress you don’t have to be a bleeding heart empath to be a good one! Read the rest of this entry »

Saturn – a planet of structure, rules, responsibilities and change – has gone retrograde until June 2012. For people that don’t like rules and responsibility, it is not a good time. Come June, should they not have taken care of proverbial business, they will be even more unhappy. But if they take this time to do what needs to be done, to put their back into it, they can see truly amazing results.

The planet Saturn was named after Cronos, a Greco-Roman God, the father of Zeus and the Ruler of Time itself.

There is also an astrological aspect known as Saturn return. It usually hits your chart anywhere from age 28 to 32 years of age. The more you fight the aspects of it, the worse it will be for you. At this stage of your life you will be called upon to decide who and what you want to be for the next 20 or so years, and you will clean house in the process. Read the rest of this entry »

Soul is the energy receptor within the physical body that allows Spirit to work through you. When someone is compassionate, considerate, and paying attention, it is said they have a great soul.

Many would like to make the soul into a thing, but the soul is of energetic nature. Though it is not an organ in the physical sense, it is the energetic aspect or receiver that connects Spirit with humanity.

You can feel it generally in the area of the Solar Plexus or your ‘soul center’. Some would like to place it in the head, making it intellectual and part of the mind, known as the ego, while others would place it in the heart, making it part of the emotional nature of mind or ego. But it isn’t connected to either of these areas or organs. It is your connection to Spirit, to God, all that is good and love. Read the rest of this entry »

Psychology and readings sometimes go hand in hand. There are also times when you may just need some plain, good old common sense – not a reading. For example, if your loved one has an addiction problem, why do you need a reading? Better maybe to get to a support group, go to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Al Anon, or see a therapist.

Readings help identify issues, but then you have to be willing to do the work. Psychic and mediumship readings do not make magic happen, or make a cheater loyal, or sober up an alcoholic. Readings can confirm your suspicions, but then you have work to do.

It does not matter if you decide to stay in the relationship or leave. If you stay, you have to develop skills to deal with the shortcomings of your loved one. If you leave, you need to figure out why your radar picked out this person and if your radar needs a ‘re-boot’ and readjustment. Read the rest of this entry »

Have you ever been involved in a romantic relationship with a married man, or woman? I know firsthand what it feels like, and it can be very challenging.

Over the last eleven years I have read for clients that have had similar relationships and let me tell you, usually they end in heartbreak. That connection that you feel with a married woman or man is very real, but it doesn’t always mean that you will be together for the rest of your lives, and beyond.

We meet these people for a number of spiritual reasons, but in most cases it is to help each other transition into the next phase of our lives. And it does so for all parties involved. I guess there really isn’t a way to avoid making these connections, because they are destined to happen for a greater purpose, which we don’t understand until long after the relationship has ended. Every connection that we make, good or bad, is meant to be. But most of them are only meant to be temporary. Read the rest of this entry »

When we are young and we do something that really ticks our parents off, what do we get? We get grounded, of course! That’s right, kids are given a time out to think about the errors of their ways.

I can think of a few times I exercised my intuition after getting a time out as a girl, and not being allowed to do that which I wanted. I remember one day I was really, really wanting to go with a friend who knew someone who just got their car and were going to go cruising down this stretch of road that was popular with kids who like to race each other. I wanted to go so badly, but I got grounded and was really upset.

But in a way I felt relieved that I couldn’t go that day, almost as though I really knew that something bad would happen if I went. I remember meditating in my room and asking God to give me a sign that I am right where I need to be. I also remember reading a book that inspired and encouraged you to think outside the box and not limit yourself, as we really do use only about 10% of our minds! Read the rest of this entry »

Online psychic readers often have to deal with calls from anxious or hurried  clients. An example of a typical Impatient Call would be as follows:

Caller: “Yeah, I’m curious as to why all these psychics have been telling me something was going to happen by a certain date, but it hasn’t?”

Psychic: “Are you following their advice?”

Caller: “Huh?”

Psychic: “Are you going where they said it was going to happen or are you doing what you need to do to be ready to receive what you asked for?”

Caller: “Uh, well…”

Another version of the impatient call is what I call the The Big Panic: Read the rest of this entry »
