The Secret To Being Sexually Attractive
Human beings are driven by a sanctified sexual instinct. We thrive on pleasure, and work hard to avoid pain. But, being open enough to allow the sublimely sacred, sexually-originated, artistically-inherent flowing energy to merge without resistance is another story altogether.
Our DNA implanted thrill devices, instilled in us before birth, activate as soon as we are born. We arrive needing to connect, receive warmth and to belong; to be held and caressed. Soft, tender words sooth us; caring for our needs are hopefully immediate and remain paramount all the days of our lives.
As complicated and complex as it may seem, in order to satisfy our deeply infused, divine artistic creative yearnings, we generate experiences that are needful, vitally life-sustaining. Some are quite painful, to be sure, but none are unwarranted and unnecessary.
And, though we may spend a lifetime, trying to unravel layers, upon layers, upon layers of meaning hidden in intimacy – which disguise so cleverly our basic internal needs – the impelling desire to connect remains. This connection is projected and received as attractiveness. We all are generated by the impetus to attract.
The Spiritual Power Of Your Voice
With so many talent shows on television these days, there seems to be so much singing talent all over world. The exposure created by these reality shows allows otherwise unheard of individuals to find an international platform for their gifts. Some of their voices bring us alive, others pull back our deeper layers of emotion, and some simply reduce us to tears.
There are youngsters taking the stage on some of these shows who have the voices of angels. Some have never even had a day’s professional vocal training and yet, they sing like they’ve had years of coaching to develop what is already a beautiful gift. They were clearly born with their gift. Like many inventors, and also great composers of music and literature, they bring in many lifetimes of their gifts to share with us.
My father was a singer and songwriter and had a lovely voice. He became quite famous when I was still very young. His voice would get people in a happy, nostalgic frame of mind with his sing-along compositions and, as a good-looking man, he sure got the ladies swooning with his ballads!
“If you look inside my throat and inside that of a person who cannot hold a tune, nor has quality in their singing voice, the anatomy is just the same,” he told me once. He then asked me a question, which really was food for thought: “So, where does a beautiful voice come from?”
Spirit Courage, Body Bravery
We all know someone who clearly walks to the beat of their own drum. These people typically have a robust inner strength, and refuse to accept at will any pertinent information handed to them by anyone in a position of authority. The one such character that stands out in my life is my maternal grandfather.
We came from a small town of 8,000 souls. Although our neighbors enjoyed the comforts of electricity, running water and all the modern conveniences of that time, my grandfather instead chose a code of living that suited him best.
The farmers in the area also had the use of tractors and other types of modern farming equipment that enabled them to work in a more worldly fashion, but my grandfather stubbornly refused to adhere to these modern trends. He had reliable horses to pull his plow and haul the hay, used kerosene lanterns when electric lighting was easily available to him, and firmly kept to his agenda with a tedious water pump that was needed for the normal household chores.
He was a very dedicated and diligent employee, working in the shipyard. He helped to load cargo ships from all corners of the globe, which came for the mighty salmon our region was extremely well-known for. Papa, as he was known to one and all, married at a very young age, which was a normal occurrence in those days, and managed to sire 15 children. He was also very well-versed and totally immersed in politics. The entire neighborhood would first ask his advice before casting their ballot, or not, for any politician brave enough to run for local office.
Hidden In The Letters Of Your Name
The ancient art of Numerology is possibly one of the most validly pertinent and relevant psycho-analytic tools available today. The other esoteric method would be Astrology. It, too can used, holistically, as an investigative detecting rod, to unravel certain latent gifts locked within a person’s psyche.
Using Numerology, as a beginning barometer and incisive indicator, while eliciting a psychological search for meaning and clarification in the personality, in an otherwise perplexing, confusing motivating structure, one may find a treasure house of unexplored truths, which not only educate, enlighten, but also entertain.
Hidden in the letters of your name, a pertinent, applicable impetus can be exposed and consumed, as a viable method for study and consideration of merit. If you are ready, at this precise juncture in your life, to delve further into the intricate meanings possibly associated with the various grouping of letters which, in fact, form your name, along with the specific vibration attached, you may be surprised to learn who really is the person who is called by your name.
When you stand at a precarious crossroads, for whatever reason, begin the awesome unconscious probing of your inner nature, a mystifying, yet esoterically scientific approach is often helpful and appropriate. In the study of Numerology, specific wave vibrations are attached or attributed to each letter. But, more importantly, the cosmic reality interwoven in the unique blending of the individual letters comprise a specific destiny, not yet disclosed at the conscious level. What I mean exactly is: how the chosen letters are strung together, comprise certain chemical constitutions of sorts, not unlike the various essential molecular elements which make up, let’s say a chair. A far-fetched proposition, I realize, but not altogether, unlikely.
Empath Recovery From A Relationship With A Narcissist
I wrote a previous article about the phenomenon of empaths having a dangerous attraction to, and engaging in toxic relationships with narcissists. I have since been asked how the empath can more easily break away from such a relationship with a narcissist.
I am sorry to have to say, in my experience there is no surefire way to effortlessly sever such a connection. At least none that I am aware of. The connection between these two seemingly opposing forces is indeed a complicated one, since each of them serves the other with complimentary personality traits. Ending the connection is usually traumatic and detrimental to the empath.
Empaths seem to dive head first into ‘soul sucking.’ They are instinctively drawn to emotionally and mentally toxic relationships with narcissistic partners. It is the nature of the empath to try and heal those who are emotionally, mentally and even physically wounded. And too often the empath will commit almost unconditionally to this task.
The narcissist, however, lacks the ability to empathize with others and acts on their own selfish feelings of grandiosity and self-inflated ego. They serve only themselves and their need for attention and adoration. Their loyalty only lies where it is most beneficial to them. They are therefore capable of tremendous levels of deceit and manipulation. They will abuse the empath both mentally or physically to gain control over nearly every aspect of the empath’s life. They make the entire relationship solely about themselves and their needs.
Through The Looking Glass
We tend to not see ourselves accurately. We too often choose to focus on our shortcomings and weaknesses, such as we perceive them to be. And I believe we are all guilty of this. I have not in all my years met anyone who was truly satisfied with themselves – until it was sometimes too late.
I was just as guilty of this as anyone else. My childhood was one that I wouldn’t have wished on my worst enemy. I was abandoned by both parents when I was very young. I was raised by an aunt and uncle, who took pleasure in reminding me that my parents did not love me. My aunt also took every opportunity to beat the daylights out of me, while my uncle did nothing.
When I hit puberty, several older males in my ‘family’ began to stalk and harass me. I’d go into the kitchen and soon find myself backed up against a wall. Nobody believed me. Nobody did anything to stop it – not even when I was raped at 16 by a family friend’s son, who was deemed to be a “good boy” and “would never do anything like that.”
I could go on and on about all the horrible things that happened to me, but once I turned that momentous age of 16, and having had the experiences that I have had, I left my aunt and uncle’s home. I went to live with my boyfriend, his sister and their mom. When I left, my uncle dumped all my clothes on the front lawn.
The Ideal Career According To Your Zodiac Sign
Astrology is a great tool for identifying your ideal career and the kind of employment that will fulfill your longing for soulful, meaningful work. Here are a few guidelines for the different signs of the zodiac and the careers they are typically drawn to, and may thrive in.
Fire Signs
Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Energetic, impatient and independent Fire signs tend to crave adventure and love a challenge.
Aries is enthusiastic and outspoken as natural-born leaders. They prefer jobs that involve a certain amount of risk or challenge, such as fire fighting, law enforcement, competitive sports or the military. Any career that recognizes initiative, ambition and the ability to overcome many obstacles is ideal for them.
Leo loves being in the limelight and being in charge. They’re often drawn to careers that will bring them the respect and appreciation they desire. Of course, acting and any career in the entertainment field would be a perfect fit. But any profession that allows them to be the center of attention is a natural for them.
Sagittarius loves to be engaged with life and enjoy talking, writing, teaching and traveling. They’re well-suited to careers in education, publishing, law and the travel industry. Always energetic, Sagittarians prefer being outdoors and can’t stand any sort of job that keeps them stuck behind a desk.
