Favorite Incense And Essential Oils
Incense and essential oils are a powerful, inexpensive way to fill our senses and surroundings with optimum health, joy and prosperity. With the right fragrance, we can transform our thoughts, release stress and cultivate inner peace. Utilizing the calming vibes of incense and essential oils is a wonderful way to uplift our hearts and reconnect with our souls, as they help to maintain our sense of balance.
The following is a brief guide to my favorite empowering aromas, their properties, and their ability to transform your world.
Amber
Use amber to promote beauty, protection, youth, vibrancy and to promote spiritual awakening. Amber is also a powerful conductor when researching past life memories or working through old issues to clear them so one can move forward.
Tarot Cards – The Minor Arcana
It is said a picture is worth a thousand words. Images can convey meaning much more succinctly than words, and this is certainly true for me when I pull Minor Arcana cards in a Tarot reading.
The Minor Arcana are vividly descriptive cards which run the gamut of all human actions, feelings, thoughts, as well as the victories and losses we face every day in our lives. They typically represent short-term influences of the past, present and future.
A good reader, however, does not interpret Tarot cards only at face value. The imagery also triggers her intuition and clairvoyance to add details and answers to her querent’s question. The Astrological and Numerological aspects of the cards also show concrete detail. These cards can guide you and advise you through even the most difficult situations.
Never Judge A Book By Its Cover
Many people like the idea of being psychic, but sadly do not have the gift. I know this because I have a friend who is a great astrologer, but she herself is not psychic. I know this because she has confided in me. She does not have any psychic ability; she does readings by looking up people’s birthday information in astrology books. She doesn’t pick up on other people’s emotions when around them. This was confirmed when she was invited to join me and a friend, who had just recently lost her mother and was deeply saddened, she couldn’t feel what this women was going through and didn’t pick up on her feelings.
But my astrologer friend does look like someone who could be psychic. Is there a psychic look? Do psychics look differently than people who don’t have the psychic gift? I don’t think so. I have learned over the years that you can never tell who is psychic, or who is not. I think we tend to judge people based on their appearances way to much.
Oracle Cards As A Divination Tool
Oracle cards are quite different from Tarot cards. They are easier and not as complex to read as the traditional Tarot, and there are a plethora of different oracle card decks available. Personally I own over 20 decks and I realize I have barely skimmed the surface of all of the versions available. To get started there are many reputable lists and rankings available online.
Oracle card creators represent different philosophies, traditions and belief systems, and therefore each deck is unique. Oracle card decks typically contain about 56 cards, or less. Each card has its own meaning. Oracle cards are typically prophetic and can be used for many different purposes.
I like to pull an oracle card every morning, just to give me an idea of the kind of day I will have. The nice thing about them is they do not need to be put in a specific spread the way one typically does when working with the Tarot. You can pull as many as you feel is best for you.

The Tarot As A Psychic Tool
There are basically to forms of psychic reading. Some readings are readings are done with the use of ‘tools,’ while others are done without. Psychics all have different abilities, for example some are clairvoyant, while others are clairaudient. Each psychic uses their own intuitive gifts to bring us messages from their guides and ours. I will further discuss these psychic abilities in a future blog.
Reading with tools is known as divination. The list of popular psychic tools is extensive. Tarot cards are probably the most well-known and widely used psychic tool. The Tarot has been around since the 18th century and is used for the purpose of divination, psychic prediction and contacting spirit guides. I use Tarot in my readings, as they guide me, almost like a road map. There are many classes and books available to learn more about Tarot and how to do cartomancy readings.
The Power Of Your Empathy
If you are an awakened empath, you are probably well-aware of your ability to not just feel the emotions of others, but to also see, hear and know things associated with those emotions and feelings. Unfortunately, as empaths we do not come to this Earth with a guidebook on how to work with our amazing gifts.
Like most of us, you have probably also been fumbling along, learning through trial and error… while learning from others, who also learned through trial and error, and so on, and so on. And through all this you have most likely also been made aware of the so-called ‘shortcomings of being an empath,’ instead of the power of being an empath. And if you are lucky enough to have recognized or been taught to own your power, it probably still came attached with a reminder of the ‘shortcomings.’
Power And Protection From Your Ancestors
I come from a long line of female herbalists of European origins on my mother’s side of the family. They were seers, healers, and prophets who combined their psychic gifts with ancient healing practices. Today, they still come to me during meditation, to offer wisdom.
The family’s mainly Germanic connection is one I’ve researched for many years, but more recently I discovered that my ancestors crossed into Scandinavian and Norse territories too, which suggests a bloodline of fierce women who were warriors of their time. It’s really not surprising to me, as even my own mother today, who is 84 years old, can still kick anyone’s butt who crosses her path in an unkind way! I always knew she was strong when I was little, and I always admired her power and independence.
