Movie Psychics: Villains, Freaks, Heroes
Psychics and mediums in the movies are traditionally depicted as shrewd, flaky or simply evil. To this day it remains the exception to the rule to find a decent film or television show that genuine psychics will be able to relate to. Very few films in the archives offer a reasonably authentic representation of the ordinary psychic’s true life experiences.
The range of stereotypical stock characters in film is almost never-ending: from the typical dumb blondes and computer-hacking geeks, to corrupt Catholic priests, zany black cops, Las Vegas mobsters, flamboyant gay men, conspiring politicians, sex-obsessed teenagers and bombastic corporate executives with fat cigars.
Of course, psychics and mediums also make the perfect stereotype. We are ideal to be cast in the role of the satanic villain, or merely as an odd source of comic relief. For example, Whoopi Goldberg’s madcap portrayal of Oda Mae Brown, the fraudulent medium in Ghost (1990), was so well-received after the film’s release that she won a Golden Globe for her hilarious antics, as well as an Academy Award!
Hollywood relies on these stereotypes to increase box office success. Portraying misrepresented characters in a one-dimensional manner has a much wider audience appeal. Sadly, it also leads to ignorance, misconception, prejudice and discrimination. Continue reading
The Purpose of Purpose
Too often we go through life asking ourselves what our ‘purpose’ is. Why are we here, what are we meant to do? If we get far enough into this thought process, the next question is usually: how do I get to there from here?
The purpose of purpose is really very simple. We were born to be the best version of ourselves that we can possibly be. What that means for each individual is unique to each person.
It boils down to being content in our own skin. That is, of course, easier said than done – even for the most highly evolved and spiritual people. In fact it can be harder, because for those who walk the path close to Spirit the path is never an easy one.
There is one aspect of purpose that remains true, regardless of who you are. One must never use purpose for your own purpose. Yes, check your motives. Why do you do what you do? Why do you think you need what you need? The truth is most people look to others for their self-worth; they look to others to validate their own existence. Continue reading
All That Cumbersome Impossibility
If you can change just one thing about the world we live in, what would it be?
The typical response from most people would probably be something along the lines of a standard beauty pageant response, such as ‘world peace’ or ‘global warming’.
Sure, these are all noble causes, but do they solve more than one problem?
What if there was an often overlooked and a very basic adjustment we could all make, something that could potentially revolutionize the society we live in? I mean, what would happen if we all simply gave up our attempts at trying to control, manipulate and coerce others into being what we expect them to be, or to behave in ways we expect them to? It may not solve all our problems, but it might just get us much further than we currently imagine possible. Continue reading
Dark Tears Are Pearls Of Wisdom
If you are currently facing a difficult period in your life, please, do know that it will not last forever! Better days will be knocking on your door in due course.
Time does not only heal all wounds, it also reveals to us the method in all the madness we had to go through.
We are often blinded by our own trauma or suffering. Earlier today one of my clients on Psychic Access begged me to explain to her why she has been having such “bad luck” lately. What had she done to deserve this hell she is going through?
In my experience, the pain or anguish we experience in our lives always turns out to be a blessing in disguise, one way or another. But in the midst of our misery it is obviously difficult to see this clearly and objectively. What my ‘bad luck’ client did not know, before she called, was that she has healing in her hands, and that all her torment was empowering her to heal others in the future. She knows that now, although I suspect she does not believe me yet! In time her true destiny will be revealed to her. Continue reading
Dreams Saved My Family On 9/11
In my younger years I never thought dreams were a part being of psychic, even though my mother and older brother were also gifted.
There were many things my mother would tell me about her dreams and what she thought they meant, but I never really thought that dreams would make a big impact in my life.
But, the more I investigated dreaming I found out some interesting facts.
For as long as we have been able to talk about our dreams, we have been fascinated with them and have strived to understand them. Dream interpretation dates back to 3000-4000 BC; they were documented on clay tablets.
Maybe God uses dreams as a road map to direct us on the road that we are travelling, to help us overcome the fork in the road and the obstacles that we face in life? Continue reading
Foot Loose and Fancy Free
Have you ever felt that you are stuck in a rut and don’t know how to get out?
Something that really does help is to get away for a day or two, or go on a short vacation to clear your mind. Camping out, or an overnight or weekend stay at a motel, hotel, condo or vacation resort, can be part of a healing emotional health break!
I can’t believe the relief I felt recently, after a week away from the daily hustle and bustle of everyday life. When I arrived back home, I couldn’t wait to connect with my family, my Doberman dog and my friends.
However, the thing that I missed most was talking to my regular clients on Psychic Access and reconnecting with them during the time was away. I was refreshed and ready to pass on my newly refreshed positive energies to everyone! Continue reading
How To Prepare For Meditation
Meditation is the foundation of spiritual development and greater alignment with your Higher Self and divine nature.
Meditation enables us to clear negative energy attachments, improve our spiritual equilibrium, access our intuition, find answers to personal issues, resolve spiritual questions and enhance our cosmic connection with the Universe or source energy.
Most psychics, clairvoyants, mediums and spiritual teachers make use of the power of meditation on a daily basis, in order to regenerate or maintain their own flow of energy, and also to further strengthen their extra-sensory and clairvoyant abilities.
It is also a good idea for the clients of psychics to do some meditation, or even place themselves in a meditative state, before they receive a psychic reading. This will greatly enhance the results of the psychic reading or channeling session. Continue reading
