Knowing Which Psychic Tools To Use
I am often asked about the methods and tools I use for psychic readings. I have been studying divination, mediumship, and religion since I was a child. I have even developed new methods and tools along the way, selected from the practices which best enhanced or refined my own abilities. Thanks to that, knowing which psychic tool to use for a given situation can be tricky at times – even for me. After all, each method has its own strengths and weaknesses, rules and rituals. Plus, we all tend to favor the method that provides the greatest sense of security in its familiarity.
For me, that method has become the ubiquitous Tarot deck. I have been studying the tarot since the age of five, and it has been proven time and again to be the quickest, easiest, and most accurate oracle in my arsenal. With it, I can uncover information about all things past, present, and future. It even lets me relay messages from the other side, when needed. However, despite the Tarot’s versatility, it’s largely limited to abstract concepts and archetypes, so secondary tools may sometimes be needed for additional clarity, such as rune casting, the I Ching, and Kau Cim (Chinese Fortune Sticks).
Rune casting originated amongst the Germanic peoples of Europe, over 2,000 years ago, and involves using runes to examine the elements of cause and effect which are at play in a given situation. The runes are also very useful for yes and no style answers, due to their relative simplicity. Continue reading
When The Empath Becomes An Energy Sponge
I just completed a psychic reading for a long-standing client who is a successful teacher, as well as an empath and psychic in her own right. Despite being highly intuitive and, under normal circumstances, able to make good decisions based on her gut feeling, she was feeling totally at a loss, and in limbo concerning her current circumstances.
She asked me for guidance as to what could be happening to her, because even though her situation is not dire, she described herself as feeling like “a sponge that cannot not absorb any more.” She was feeling no sense of creativity or inspiration, nor any initiative to get the ball rolling for a future move for herself and her family. The Tarot’s Hangman card defines how she felt, as if she was just dangling and not getting anywhere fast.
Both she and her husband had made a big geographical move a few years ago, with the well-being of their children in mind. She was beating herself up, because she also felt responsible for every circumstance her family was experiencing, including her 17 year old daughter, who hasn’t quite yet identified her future career niche. Of course, the additional negative energy of guilt was holding her even more in limbo. To top it all, the schooling of her children and work of her husband requires that she lives and teaches remotely, with a several hours commute away from them, so they can only come together as a family once a fortnight. More guilt! Continue reading
The Healing Power Of Forest Bathing
Forest bathing, or tree bathing, is a lost healing art much needed in this era of technology. It is a powerful, natural healing tool for cleansing the aura and chakras, and it doesn’t cost anything. The Japanese call it Shinrin-Yoku, or ‘forest medicine.’
Tree bathing is to allow the trees and plants to filter your energy, like they filter the air – in with the good, pure and new… and out with the toxic thoughts and feelings of anger and fear. There is a tremendous benefit to being in nature without having to achieve, compete, accomplish, or do something.
Trees are believed to have a secret language they use to communicate with each other. This language helps to heal us when we become part of their energy and communication. Trees are natural purifiers. They take old, toxic, polluted air and filter it through their system and release healthy, pure air with renewed and powerful life force. We breath this air in and it heals our lungs and organs. Stress can also do this energetically, just by being in their presence. Continue reading
Ask Your Spiritual Team
You are not alone. We witness many of you struggling. Many of you are overcome and overwhelmed with the new energy, with what is happening here on your planet, with what is happening within your own space.
We are reminded of Jesus on the cross, crying out, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” God is with you always. He has assigned a Spiritual Team to you, to assist you breath by breath, moment by moment.
You are not bothering anybody when you ask. You are not irritating or preventing another whom may be needier from their turn to ask. Each and every one of you have your own Spiritual Team. They wait upon you like a personal butler. But you have free will. They cannot interfere unless you ask. Continue reading
Spiritual Cleansing
With a new year comes the opportunity again to better ourselves, but how many of us consider the spiritual along with the physical or mental? Like our homes or our cars, our spiritual selves accumulate ‘junk’ over time and need cleaning too.
The first clue that a spiritual cleansing or psychic clearing is overdue is that general feeling of heaviness, emotional clutter, or being overwhelmed. Just as we tend to get depressed when our living space is a wreck, if our spiritual essence is no longer working properly, neither will we as a whole unit.
A perfect way to get started, which is inexpensive and environmentally friendly, is to smudge your physical space with a healing herb such as sage, or something stronger like frankincense. As you burn these herbs, focus on ridding negative energies and memories and repeat a mantra such as, “I release that which I no longer need, and focus now on the present.” Continue reading
Catching The Bogey Man
At a particular time in their life, some people may feel that they have not achieved much success in their career, romantic life, or health and well-being. And often these people accept it to be due to their own wrongdoing. But negative energy in our lives is not always of our own volition.
Granted, when applicable, we should admit that we sometimes might have been operating from a negative vibration, which aids the expansion of such feelings of doubt and a lack of confidence. But sometimes these negative energies in our lives are caused by dark and destructive spiritual forces.
There are unknown entities out there patiently waiting for the opportunity to take control of some unsuspecting soul, especially if you are experiencing trauma, chaos or indecision. One of the main reasons these entities find it so easy to take over and manipulate us in these opportune moments, is because we are feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable. Confusion takes over and our defenses are down. We do not always have the clarity in such difficult times to see what is impeding our progress. Continue reading
Black Panther – Symbolism And Meaning
Black Panther has the gift of shape shifting. The Black Panther is a leopard or jaguar. Just as you must get close to a person with this animal for a totem, you must get very close to see the variations in color or spots of the Black Panther.
With people that carry this energy, it may be difficult to get close to them as they do not reveal much of themselves to others. They are loners and usually connect with other loners.
Panthers are swift and graceful. They move swiftly. People with this energy may make decisions quickly and they may have no trouble making spur of the moment choices. However, a panther can’t maintain such swift speed. Continue reading
