The Seven Rays of Esoteric Psychology
Back in 1985, I was privileged to be a part of an Esoteric Astrology class in Johannesburg, South Africa. The course included Esoteric Psychology and the lady teaching the class had been a student of Dr. Douglas Baker who taught Psychology of the Soul. I had never heard of this subject before, but it intrigued me.
Basically, it involves the notion that the Universe is made up of seven rays. Each ray has specific attributes. Since the Universe is made up of these rays, we are an integral part of this system. As part of our make-up, we have an affinity with a number of these rays on different levels of our being. We all have a personality and a mental, physical, emotional and spiritual makeup. We express different rays on many of these levels. Read the rest of this entry »
From Psychotherapy To Psychic Readings
In an effort to know more about myself, I embarked upon a journey of self-discovery through psychotherapy many years ago.
My first therapist, in 1970’s New York City, was an Analyst, or more specifically a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist. Big words that meant he subscribed rigidly to Freudian therapy. Sigmund Freud, the ‘father of Psychoanalysis’, originally developed this traditional therapeutic method, which mainly deals with exploring the subconscious mind and aims to explore repressed impulses, anxieties, and internal conflicts.
My Analyst sat in a big leather chair in a dimly-lit room, while I lay on a matching leather couch talking, for the entire 50-minute session. He occasionally said, “Uhmmm”…and then eventually, “Time’s up. See you next week.” Read the rest of this entry »
Exercising Body And Mind For Psychic Awareness
Without some pre-planning it can be difficult to stay alert and aware enough to complete all my psychic readings each day with peak energy. It has become clear to me that I need to take care of my body and my mind to stay sharp for each seeker. I think this is true for all people as we age, but in asking so much of ourselves for the care giving of others, we psychic readers must be aware that it is especially true.
Quality Thinking Really Counts
The mind has to be exercised to function well. Looking over brain research, I learned that moving to a new location, having to learn a new business, learning a new language, taking up a new hobby, and even starting to learn a musical instrument, are all helpful exercises for brain repair. A brain needs to have new challenges to function well, both mundanely and psychically. Read the rest of this entry »
Talking To A Brick Wall?
“Hello…hello..?” Ever feel like you’re talking to a brick wall in your relationships? It could be when you are communicating with your child, your spouse or even a parent. It can be so frustrating to have to repeat yourself over and over.
In today’s world we are inundated with technology that causes a lot of the disconnectedness we experience in society. People’s attentions get fixated on things that are not of any real value or meaningfulness. Some of the ridiculous shows they put on television at night just leaves me with my jaw hitting the floor! How can we be that fixated on all this negative stuff? It’s disheartening. I sometimes wonder what life would be like if we focused on things that were of love, peace and just simple happiness.

Dealing With Fear
Fear is a reaction to something or someone that we perceive as being dangerous, threatening or painful. Fear is not necessarily a bad thing, as it helps us avoid dangerous situations, like touching a hot surface, or swimming in rapidly-moving water.
Fear can also be related to the loss of a loved one. If, for example, a person is between the ages of birth to 18 years and dependent upon a parent to meet basic needs, this fear can become very deep-rooted. The same is true if you are older and suffered one or more significant losses.
We can also become frightened before speaking to a large group of people, or when boarding an airplane or just thinking about it, or seeing a clown or a dangerous animal. Each person has a set of induced fears. Read the rest of this entry »
To Chat, Or Not To Chat, That Is The Question
My psychic skills are employed exclusively by PsychicAccess.com. Each morning, after I arrive at my office and turn on the desktop computer, I go on the Psychic Access home page and make sure I am listed as available. Then I turn on my laptop and write a blog for Psychic Access, or do some of my own writing, as I am also an author.
I made a significant investment to be on Psychic Access. I have been a psychic for a long time, but I was not working online for several years, due to my living arrangements. I also never had access to a high speed Internet connection from 1994 until the beginning of this year. I was always living off-grid or in a small rural village somewhere. To be able to work on Psychic Access I had relocate to some land in a neighboring town, in order to get access to a high speed Internet connection. I also had to get a hardwired phone connection and buy a PC with a webcam for video chat readings. It took me four months to accomplish all of that, after I was hired to work on the site.

My Animal Totem Guides Me To Joy
For most of my childhood I lived in a rural farming area surrounded by lots of woods and wildlife. And I was always so very drawn to the birds in our region in particular. The Eagles, Owls, Geese, Blue Heron, Swans, Finches, Swallows, Robins, and most of all the Hummingbirds, fascinated me so very much. Even in the cities I lived later in my life there were always Hummingbirds. They have been part of my existence since I can remember.
But, it wasn’t until I was in my 30’s, when I spoke with a Shaman that I understood why. The Hummingbird is my Animal Totem and it represents Joy. And now I know why I have always been so drawn to them. There has been so much sorrow, violence and abuse in most of my life; it was only in staying connected to Joy that have I survived it all. The emotion and mental state of Joy has a kind of power that transcends all things that may break our bodies and our hearts. Read the rest of this entry »
It’s Okay To Say No!
Our fears can cause us to miss out on a lot of experiences and opportunities. Don’t let your fears rob you of your life. At the same time don’t mistake your not wanting to entertain certain people, or put yourself in certain situations, as a sign of fear. Give that up right now!
There is a huge difference between not doing something out of fear and simply not wanting to do something, because you just know it is not the right thing to do for you and it is not serving the greatest good in your life.
It is important to protect our energy field from negative, draining people. It can actually be unhealthy for us to force ourselves to do things we don’t want to do. We need to move through life with caution. Paying attention to our internal guidance system or intuition can help with this. To me that is God taking to me from within. I listen to my inner guidance all the time and it saves me a lot of time and energy. It also keeps me from saying, “Shoot, if only I would have listened to that inner voice!” Read the rest of this entry »
