Readings

In most of my readings that I do the subject of "closing old doors" or "letting go" of the past quite often comes up.  Most clients are unaware of how to do this. I have heard (and tried) many methods but I'd like to pass on two than have genuinely worked for me.  I will cover "cutting the cord" in this blog and "using the pendulum " in a separate blog. Cutting the cord 1. I personally like to go out and do this in nature or by the sea.  Find a quiet place where there's not too much happening and make yourself comfortable.   Sitting position is good - on a chair or on the ground doesn't matter. 2.  Close your eyes and focus on your breath taking deep breaths in and deep breaths out.  Continue to do this until you get into a natural breathing pattern. 3. Turn your focus on your body.  Starting from the toes and working your way up focusing on each part of your body to the top of your head, consciously relax all your muscles.  Keep...

Today I  picked the Horse card.  The horse is all about personal power.  It vibrates to the carnelian stone. I was pondering on what personal power actually meant to me. The power to say no. My husband taught me a really great "yukti" (Hindi word for method/action)which I bought into my life some years ago and it really works! I used to be one to say "yes" to everyone.  The trouble was, once I'd thought about it and realised I didn't want to do it, I would make up some excuse not to do it. It never felt good doing that  but I didn't know any other way.  I was born into a "yes" family (God help me!) so it was all I knew. Looking back, from the other persons perspective I must've come across as a very unreliable person. From my side I always seemed to be "busy" helping other people have great lives whilst mine was perpetually "in the shit ". From a work perspective I was so good at helping other people look good(s...

Today I pulled the elephant card.  It's about self worth.  Yesterday my friend who's a naturopath used me as a test for a "method" of getting to the source of a problem.  It was done with questions and a pendulum.   She asked me for 3 issues I had.  The pendulum chose my weight issue.  She went through many questions using the pendulum to both choose questions and answers with input from me occasionally.   It was determined my problem started around 10 years of age.  "Oh joy" I thought to myself. .. that would be the age I couldn't remember a thing about!  She ascertained some issues but determined that they weren't actually mine.  They were issues of a friend of mine and I had taken them on.  The original source that came up was jealousy and envy.  I thought of all the problems I had, they would've been the last two things I would have picked for myself. .. however remember these were not my issues...I just took them...

I learnt something about life yesterday which I don't want to forget. It's about intent and the story goes like this... A woman in this life complains that every woman she meets thinks she's a loose woman, some even call her a slut others make it obvious she is to keep away from their husband's or say cutting things to or about her.  She's actually done nothing in this life to deserve that sort of treatment.  We'll call her Sally. Another woman in this life is respected and treated like an angel wherever she goes.  Again she's done nothing in particular in this life to deserve that sort of treatment. We'll call her Judy. They both went to a past life healer.  Each one found out that they had been a prostitute in their previous life. Sally did it to get what she could out of the men she was with.  She manipulated men for gifts,  more money... whatever she could get she went for it with no regard for how the men felt.  Judy on the other hand became...

I'm still learning about the ego and how to identify it.  If my thoughts are judgemental or critical I know it's ego.  That's still working for me.   As I observe my thoughts, I'm continually amazed at how many thoughts are ego based and just not me! I am also touching on intuition today and how to recognise that.  It seems intuition and instinct quite often get confused as the same thing.  I remember when I was with my friend Sue, the trance channeller one day and her channelled spirit told me intuition is like a feeling of coming homeness.  I'm reading Akemi G's book today which is giving me some guidance on how to develop my intuition.  She says that a critical skill in developing intuition is forming clear, direct and answerable questions.  In order to develop the skill to consciously tune into intuition,  however, we need to ask questions with intention.   The specificity of the answer can only be as good as the q...

Just reading the book Why We Are Born by Akemi and it's talking about love.  The biggest thing I got out of this is that if I am  judgemntal towards myself then I am judgemental towards others whether I voice it or not.  I am going to sit with this today.  Because I know I am judgemental towards myself.  My card today is the butterfly and about transformation.   It's about learning to share my knowledge with others.  I've started doing that on a psychic site.  I'm accepting I am an empath.  I feel others pain.  That's for the most part why I can't get angry at people because I can see things from their side. I do have to balance that with teaching people that I deserve respect too.  So I have respect for myself then others will naturally respect me.

Today I started to read a book called Why We Are Born by Akemi G.  I ordered this through Amazon and had been waiting a few weeks for it.  There is a really good section on the EGO and how it works.  I think the biggest thing I got out of this is that if it judges or criticises it's the EGO.  That is probably one of THE most helpful bits of information I have received to help me with my journey to enlightenment.  And when I say journey to I mean my journey within.  It's my understanding we are all enlightened it's just covered over by EGO.  So I don't have to BECOME anything or improve myself I just need to slow down and drop my EGO and see what is underneath.  Note:  This next paragraph may be upsetting to you as it was me. I was given some awful information today about a pedophile ring .... people in high places breeding children kids escaped she's now a grown woman and went on the Dr Phil show.  I couldn't get past the fact that ...

Today we decided to drive to Port Douglas.   I hadn't seen it since the 70's when there was about 3 buildings on the main street. It was disappointing.   It just looked like any other touristy Australian town.  My card was the giraffe today.  I've been having problems with questionable decision making lately or should I say I've been noticing it more .  I've increased my meditation but looking back on my life I don't think sit down meditation is any good for me.  I need to bring it to life (to action).  In all aspects of my life... if I slowed down, my decision making would only improve.  Focusing on my breath helps me slow down. . but how do I remember to do that?   I get anxious when I'm around people.  That's  why I used to smoke.   I taught myself to breathe around people instead and that would calm me down. I've let that go for some reason.  I've now set my alarm to go every half hour so I can t...

My card today was the Black Bear.  The black bear teaches about introspection,  inner strength, independence and self sufficiency.  I need to pay attention to my own personal beliefs and values.  It asks that I nurture a greater appreciation for silence and positive change.  It helps me break through the illusion of personal limitations and false beliefs  and realise a willingness to step into the unknown.  It's asking me to ponder  life, contemplate my spiritual path and make self empowering choices. We have a friend staying with us at the moment.  He's invited his friend to stay at our house.  He did ask and we said yes.  But there is a total lack of respect towards us.  His friend came in and cooked and left a mess on the floor which I cleaned up.  I asked my friend twice not to leave the terrace door open as I get bitten by the midges that come in.  He left it open.   He then proceeds to give our key to ...

Well my card today was the Red Panda.  One thing about me, I rarely get angry and have only blown my top once.  My husband has always said that's not healthy and I think he looks forward to the day when I really lose it.  He thinks I have all this supressed anger in me just waiting to come out.  When he says that I look inside to try and find this anger and I can't find it!   The explanation on this card was interesting as it said "I find it hard to punish, blame or accuse anyone because my heart is free of vengeance and self importance".  I  thought  this is the perfect way to explain the way I am.  The panda gets you from a place of ego to a place of humility and gratefulness.  Let's face it we all need that.  As my husband opened the door for me once again today (he has really good manners) I took the time to say I really appreciated the fact that he had such good manners.  I think he might have been in shock as he did...

I drew the Whale card today.  I've drawn this card before.  My ego was going "ho hum a boring card why can't I get a really interest one?"  I decided to read the whole meaning behind this card and it was talking about feeling the rhythm of the environment and planet.  I got thinking about that and I thought I'll give it a go.  One of my first jobs for the day was to check out a BBQ area at the Lagoon.   Nige had already walked down there with our friend Jono.  Once I parked the car and got out I listened and I could feel and hear a rhythm that sounded like a whole lot of owls "hooing".  When I looked up into the trees I was walking under I noticed the noise was coming from these whitish birds that looked like doves.  When I looked up at the trees for the first time I noticed how large and awesome they were.  I couldn't believe that for the 5 months I'd been in Cairns I hadn't stopped and noticed the magnificence of these trees and ...

My animal card today is a dolphin.   The dolphin reminds me to slow down, to remember to breathe deeply.  It's amazing how I can go through a whole day and not do this.  The one thing I find about myself when I practice this stuff is that I get worse.  My husband pointed out to me that I don't get worse, I just become more aware, I notice my "dizziness"!  I  even turned left on a red light after going to the market this morning!  I wasn't breathing then.  I was on Jeju Island automatic pilot where you can turn "left" anytime with care. The dolphin card also comes up to help me plot my course back to spirit.  It also asks me to look back at the time I was born to see if there are any hinderences from that time. There's another book I got from the library and I was going to take it back without reading it.  (Sometimes I have the feeling too many books can scatter the energy).  But given the card today I thought I had bette...
