I love using crystal water as part of my spiritual practice. Crystal-infused water is an alchemical elixir for harmonizing the body, mind, and spirit.

Using the vibrational properties of crystals, this practice involves infusing water with the subtle energies emitted by carefully selected crystals and gemstones. Drinking crystal water is a powerful healing tool and wonderful for maintaining holistic balance and inner harmony.

I prefer consuming crystal water just once per week. I avoid disturbing the body’s energy balance on a daily basis. Additionally, it is an effective method to increase water intake and maintain hydration.

Crystals have been utilized for their healing and spiritual attributes since ancient times, with their origins tracing back to civilizations like Egypt, Greece, and China. These cultures acknowledged the energetic properties of crystals and harnessed them for purposes such as healing, protection, and spiritual connectivity.

While there is limited historical documentation that specifically mentions crystal-infused water in ancient traditions, it is evident that the ancients held a deep reverence for both crystals and water in their spiritual, healing, and ceremonial practices. Over time, as the awareness of the metaphysical properties of crystals evolved in modern times, the practice of immersing crystals in water for drinking emerged.

Crystals often embody specific intentions like healing, love, or abundance. Drinking crystal-infused water can help amplify your own intentions and align your energy with your goals ~ Luisa Jackson

There are two ways to infuse water with crystal energies:

Immersing the purified crystal into the water without any intermediaries.

Indirect immersion by placing the crystal in a separate compartment or smaller sealed container (made of a safe material such as glass) to serve as a physical barrier between the crystal and the water, or placing crystals on the outside around the water container. The reason for this is that while many crystals and gemstones are safe for use in crystal-infused water, there are certain types that can release toxic substances when submerged in water (see guidelines below).

My favorite technique is to leave the crystals out in the bright sunshine for days. Not only does it absorb the sun’s energy, but it also intensifies or further “charges” the energy of the crystal. When the crystal is then submerged in water, it transfers both energies to the water. In fact, in my experience, drinking the water is just as powerful, if not more effective, than wearing the crystals!

Make sure to purify and recharge the crystal before submerging it in water. Crystals not only take in the energy of the sun but also assimilate other energies. Ideally, cleanse your crystal by soaking it in a river, stream, or waterfall. If that’s not possible, you can use filtered water at home. Enhance the cleansing process by incorporating an energy cleansing prayer, a ritual, intentional visualization, or Reiki to eliminate any lingering old energy and programming.

Just as putting ice all around a glass of water rather than in the water itself will still cool it, or shining a torch through a glass will still light up the water, putting gemstones around your water will still energize it ~ Jude Polack

Crystal Safety Guidelines

Before incorporating any crystals into your water infusion routine, it is crucial to be cautious and conduct thorough research. While many crystals are generally safe to use for creating crystal-infused water, there are certain ones that are not recommended and could potentially pose health risks. Hence, always remember these factors and proceed with care.

Alabaster is generally a safe material, but it is crucial to ensure that it is authentic and not coated or treated.

Amber: For the most part, it is considered safe, but it is crucial to ensure its authenticity and avoid synthetic versions.

Blue Lace Agate: Generally safe, but it’s important to make sure it’s genuine and not treated or coated.

Carnelian and Fire Agate: Both are safe for use in water, but it’s best to make sure they are not treated or coated.

Chrysocolla: Like malachite, it contains copper and should be avoided in water infusion practices to prevent copper poisoning.

Direct contact with cinnabar or using it in water infusions can be highly dangerous due to its mercury content, which is a toxic substance.

Green Jade: Generally safe, but it’s important to make sure it’s real jade and not a dyed or treated stone.

Rock salt, also known as halite, is often utilized in salt lamps and decorative objects. However, submerging it in water may pose risks, as it can dissolve and release salt into the water. Consuming excessive amounts of salty water can lead to dehydration and imbalances in electrolytes.

Malachite: Contains copper, which can leach into the water and cause copper poisoning if ingested in large quantities. It is advisable to avoid using malachite in water infusion practices.

Moonstone: Generally safe, but it’s important to make sure it’s genuine and not treated or coated.

Pyrite: Also known as “fool’s gold” it contains sulfur, which can oxidize to form sulfuric acid when exposed to water. While the risk of significant toxicity from pyrite-infused water is low, it’s best to err on the side of caution and avoid using pyrite in water infusion practices.

Rhodonite: Generally considered safe for use in water, but as with any crystal, it’s important to ensure that it’s not treated or coated in any way that could leach harmful substances into the water.

Sardonyx: Generally safe, but as with other stones, it’s important to make sure it’s genuine and not treated.

Selenite: A delicate crystal that can dissolve in water, releasing soluble minerals such as gypsum. While selenite itself is not toxic, ingesting large amounts of dissolved minerals from selenite-infused water can cause stomach upset. It’s best to use selenite indirectly by placing it around the water container rather than submerging it directly.

These are just a few examples, and there may be other crystals or gemstones with similar properties. It’s also important to research any crystal thoroughly and consult reliable sources before using it safely in water infusion practices.

If you’re unsure, it’s best to use crystals that are proven to be safe in water, or try alternative methods like positioning crystals near the water instead of immersing them directly.

Understanding the Science Behind the Vibrational Properties of Crystal-Infused Water

Crystal-infused water has become a popular holistic approach to wellness and self-care in recent years. This involves placing crystals in water to infuse it with their unique energetic properties, known as “vibrational alchemy.” Although some may view this as pseudoscience, there is actually a scientific basis behind the effects of crystal-infused water on our well-being.

To comprehend the science behind the vibrational alchemy of crystal-infused water, we must first explore the concept of vibrational frequencies. Everything in the universe, including crystals and our bodies, consists of energy vibrating at different frequencies. Each crystal possesses its own distinct vibrational frequency that resonates with specific aspects of our being.

When crystals are placed in water, their energy transfers to the water molecules through a process called entrainment. Entrainment occurs when two objects vibrating close together synchronize their vibrations. In this case, the crystal’s vibrational frequency influences the water molecules, causing them to align with the crystal’s energy.

Water itself is highly receptive to energy and can store and transmit information. This is evident in scientific studies on water memory and its ability to retain the energetic imprint of substances it encounters. When crystals are placed in water, they leave their energetic signature on the water molecules, creating an energetic elixir.

The vibrational properties of crystals are believed to directly impact our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. For instance, amethyst is known for its calming and soothing properties, while rose quartz is associated with love and compassion. By consuming crystal-infused water, we essentially take in the vibrational qualities of the crystals, allowing them to interact with our own energetic field.

Scientific research has demonstrated that external energies can influence our bodies. The concept of vibrational medicine, which includes practices like crystal healing, acknowledges that imbalances in our energetic field can manifest as physical or emotional ailments. By introducing the harmonizing frequencies of crystals through crystal-infused water, we may potentially restore balance and enhance overall wellness.

Although the scientific understanding of crystal-infused water is still developing, there is increasing evidence supporting its effectiveness. Studies have shown that water can be influenced by external energies, and the practice of infusing water with crystals has been used for healing purposes in various cultures for centuries.

It is important to note that crystal-infused water should not replace traditional medical treatments but rather serve as a complementary practice. The effects of crystal-infused water may vary for each individual, as sensitivities and responses to energy differ. Consulting with a healthcare professional before incorporating new wellness practices into your routine is always advisable.

Throughout history and even in modern times, crystals, gemstones, and incense have garnered great popularity for their usage in spiritual, esoteric, and healing practices.

However, there exists a different kind of natural substance that lacks the same widespread recognition and popularity, despite possessing distinct metaphysical qualities and holding importance in diverse cultures and mystical practices.

Many modern practitioners are not familiar with resins and their metaphysical properties, making them less well-known and utilized. I often encounter people who have limited knowledge about the different types of resins that are available.

Resins have not garnered as much attention and exposure as crystals, gemstones, and incense, despite their growing popularity, particularly on social media and the Internet.

Consequently, individuals might have a lower chance of coming across resins while engaging with metaphysical tools and practices.

I also find that people who are at least somewhat familiar with resins tend to associate them with their use as incense. Resins such as frankincense, myrrh, copal, and others are often burned as incense to purify spaces, objects, and individuals. The smoke cleanses negative energies, purifies the aura, and creates a sacred atmosphere for rituals and ceremonies.

Never cold, as if each bead were an unquenchable flame that burned a million years like a sanctuary lamp beneath the ice, each drop of sticky gold hardening to honeyed stone ~ Gillian Clarke

Burning resins also facilitates spiritual connection and communication with higher realms, guides, and deities. The aromatic smoke is a medium for prayer, meditation, and communion with the divine. Resins are believed to have protective properties that ward off negative energies, evil spirits, and psychic attacks. Burning certain resins creates a barrier of spiritual protection around people and spaces.

Amber, my favorite type of resin, is not typically used as incense in the same way as other resins such as frankincense, myrrh, and copal. While amber has a distinct aroma when heated, it is not commonly burned as incense, mainly because pure amber resin does not produce as much smoke or fragrance as other resins. Instead, the resin is worn as protective jewelry, used in rituals and ceremonies, or displayed as decorative objects to enhance spiritual practices and personal well-being.

Amber is commonly perceived as a stone, but it is indeed a fossil that originated from the resin or ‘tree sap’ of cone-bearing trees like conifers millions of years ago. It is not classified as a mineral, but as an organic substance. The creation of amber starts when resin emerges from trees, usually as a reaction to damage or illness. Gradually, this resin gets buried in layers of sediment and undergoes polymerization and fossilization.

Amber possesses the extraordinary ability to safeguard fossils. It can trap various things like plants, insects, and even small vertebrates, freezing them in time and perfectly preserving them for countless years. This exceptional quality has intrigued scientists, historians, and collectors, enhancing the desirability of amber as a valuable substance. Regrettably, amber cannot conserve genetic DNA.

Amber holds a special place in human history as one of the oldest materials used for decoration and has been valued and used by humans throughout the ages, with evidence of its use dating back to the Stone Age. Archaeological findings, such as amber beads and artifacts, attest to its importance in ancient societies.

Amber’s natural beauty is one of the primary factors contributing to its popularity as an ornament. With a range of hues from pale yellows and oranges to rich browns and reds, amber possesses a warm and translucent appearance that fascinates people. Throughout history, various cultures have linked amber to wealth, status, and power. In civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, members of royalty, nobility, and clergy adorned themselves with amber jewelry as a symbol of prestige and divine support.

Ancient, warm, and with thousands of years of wisdom to lean on, it tethers us to nature and the cycles of rebirth. It is pure golden warmth ever ready to rouse your authentic desires and fill your spirit with calm and beautiful energy ~ Brett Larkin

Throughout history, amber has been prized not only for its beauty and use for ornamental purposes, but also for its use in traditional medicine, perfumery, and religious rituals. Amber holds cultural significance in many societies around the world and continues to be valued for its mystical qualities, including:

Protection

Amber holds great significance in various cultures due to its renowned protective properties. It possesses the ability to safeguard against harmful energies, malevolent entities, and psychic assaults by enveloping the wearer or surroundings in a shield of positive energy.

Amber has the ability to fortify the aura, improve spiritual clarity, and aid in connecting with beings from higher dimensions. Whether utilized as jewelry, a talisman, or incorporated into rituals, this precious substance acts as a potent assistant in safeguarding the spirit and fostering spiritual equilibrium and harmony.

Purification

Amber has the ability to purify and restore balance to the aura by eliminating negative energies. It is commonly used in cleansing rituals and ceremonies. In order to enhance the effectiveness of these rituals, amber-infused oil is often utilized. Additionally, amber essential oil, derived from amber resin, serves a variety of purposes such as aromatherapy and fragrance for candles, diffusers, and perfumes.

It is important to note that raw amber should not be burned as incense. Burning raw amber can release unpleasant odors and potentially harmful fumes due to certain organic compounds trapped within the resin. There are alternatives. Some types of amber resin are available for purchase that have been formulated specifically for use as incense. These resins often contain aromatic additives to enhance their fragrance while burning.

Grounding

Amber symbolizes the earth’s energy and the natural world due to its organic origin from fossilized tree resin. It establishes a connection between us and the elemental forces of nature, allowing us to ground and center our energy. In earth-based spiritual practices, amber is utilized to pay homage to the interconnectedness of all living beings.

Healing

Amber was frequently utilized in ancient medical customs due to its therapeutic attributes. It was thought to enhance physical well-being, vitality, and overall health. Traditionally, amber is employed as a remedy for different health issues such as alleviating pain, reducing inflammation, and addressing respiratory problems.

Amber has numerous health applications, providing relief for various conditions like sore throats, earaches, toothaches, rheumatism, asthma, and digestive problems. It is believed that holding an amber ball can lower fever and boost metabolism. Additionally, it has been traditionally used to alleviate teething pain in babies.

Spirituality

Amber is said to contain the essence of life because it is warm to the touch, and whole insects or fragments of insects are often found in this fossil. Amber helps open the third eye chakra and facilitates spiritual insight, intuition and psychic abilities. It can be used in meditation practices to deepen one’s connection to the spiritual realm.

Amber holds significance in certain esoteric practices, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and the broadening of one’s awareness. In regions like the Baltic and Northern Europe, where amber is plentiful, stories and myths frequently portray it as tears shed by the sun or as solidified sunlight, carrying the essence of solar energy and divine illumination.

The origin of Baltic amber in Lithuania is often linked to a mythical story about queen Jurate and fisherman Kastytis. According to the legend, when Kastytis, a mortal man, tried to court the Queen of the Baltic, God Perkunas was furious and struck her underwater amber palace with lightning, sinking Kastytis and his boat. As a result, fragments of amber from the palace have been washed ashore by the waves, while smaller pieces, believed to be Jurate’s tears, are scattered during storms.

Manifesting

The energetic properties of amber help to ‘solidify’ or ‘crystallize’ our prayers, intentions and desires, making it a valuable tool for manifestation practices and rituals. It enhances the power of affirmations, visualization techniques, and intention setting practices to create and manifest wishes and desires more effectively.

Amber is associated with the Fifth Element, also known as Akasha. Akasha is the ruler and binder of the elements of earth, fire, wind and water, symbolizing all living things. When rubbed against silk or wool, amber becomes electrically charged. It is wonderful to work with when manifesting your intentions. This fossil is magnetic and its golden color symbolizes success for Gemini’s, Leos and Virgos.

Amber is considered a sign of fortune and wellbeing in certain cultures. Wearing amber accessories or having them in your living space is thought to bring in abundance and positive outcomes. It is also believed that amber can amplify sensuality and draw attention from someone you are interested in, showcasing your inherent beauty to them.

Ancestral Work

Amber is connected to the Akashic Records, the regression of past lives, and the knowledge inherited from our ancestors. It contains the memories and energies from previous lifetimes and ancient eras, along with the collective wisdom passed down by our predecessors.

Using amber during past life regression sessions or ancestral ceremonies can aid in the exploration of past lives and ancestral ties. Its harmonizing properties help in pacifying an excessively intellectual mind and are beneficial for both past life and inner child work.

Shamanism

Amber is of great importance in shamanism and is utilized in numerous ways to aid in healing, safeguarding, foretelling, and connecting with the spiritual realm. Particular shamans employ amber to summon positive spirits, intensify their altered states of consciousness, and ease their voyages into the world of spirits.

Amber is also sometimes used in psychopomp work, which involves guiding souls to the afterlife or helping spirits transition from the earthly realm. In these rituals and ceremonies, shamans incorporate amber to assist the spirits in their journey and facilitate their passage into the spirit world.

The historical significance of amber in spirituality and mysticism reveals humanity’s profound admiration for nature and the belief in the intrinsic abilities of natural elements to cure, safeguard, and enhance awareness.

Divination

Amber has various applications in divination practices. I have explored the use of amber as a pendulum, but my primary usage revolves around casting the bones. Prior to delving into different Western approaches to healing and divination, I underwent training as a sangoma in Southern Africa three decades ago. During that time, I acquired knowledge in various areas, including the art of divination referred to as ‘throwing the bones.’ A sangoma who casts bones can be likened to a Native American shaman, an Old Norse rune reader, or a European tarot reader.

The bones casting is an ancient divination practice found in many regions of the world, including Africa, Asia, and North America. Traditionally, each bone or token used for casting is part of a “set” or “kit” that the diviner carefully selects with the guidance of spirit, the ancestors, and initially with the help of a mentor. The typical kit contains several small objects and natural curiosities, including bones, shells, beads, wood, ivory, crystals, stones, and other objects of personal significance to the diviner.

At first, my kit for fortune-telling only contained bones from different wild creatures like baboons, lions, anteaters, and wild pigs. These bones were gathered from animals that had passed away naturally. Gradually, I expanded my collection to include shells, seeds, tree bark, money, crystals, and other charms that seemed to have a significance to me. One of the noteworthy additions was a stunning fragment of unprocessed amber.

Some diviner also use amber as a scrying tool by holding or hanging a piece of polished amber in front of a candle flame or natural light source. Scrying is a divination technique that involves looking into a reflective or translucent surface to receive messages, symbols, or visions from the subconscious or spirit realm.

Finally, I’d like to emphasize the significance of being mindful about the karmic responsibility associated with the usage of natural resources like amber in spiritual or healing practices. It is essential to prioritize ethical and sustainable sourcing for all natural materials we utilize, including crystals, gemstones, incense, resins, and so forth.

By actively opting for ethically and sustainably acquired amber, you demonstrate your respect for both our planet’s natural resources and the well-being of the communities and ecosystems involved in its extraction and manufacturing process. Ethically sourced amber guarantees fair labor practices, safeguards biodiversity, boosts local economies, and fosters a harmonious coexistence between humans and the environment.

By infusing your spiritual practice with intentionality and compassion, you contribute to the collective well-being of our planet and affirm your commitment to living in alignment with your values. Choose consciously, practice mindfully, and let your spiritual practice be a beacon of light for the world.

Discover the Fascinating Properties of Ancient Amber

Amber, a fossilized tree resin, has captivated humans for centuries with its mesmerizing beauty and intriguing properties. This ancient gemstone, often referred to as “the gold of the sea,” holds within it a wealth of historical and scientific significance. From its stunning colors to its ability to preserve ancient life forms, amber continues to amaze and fascinate people around the world.

One of the most remarkable properties of amber is its ability to preserve ancient life forms. Trapped within its golden depths are remnants of a bygone era, offering a unique glimpse into prehistoric times. Insects, spiders, and even small reptiles have been found perfectly preserved in amber, frozen in time for millions of years. These tiny creatures provide invaluable insights into the biodiversity and evolution of our planet.

Amber is formed from the resin of ancient trees, primarily conifers. When a tree is injured or stressed, it secretes resin as a defense mechanism. Over time, this resin hardens and fossilizes, transforming into amber. The process can take millions of years, resulting in a gemstone that is both beautiful and durable.

The colors of amber are as diverse as the species of trees from which it originates. Ranging from pale yellow to deep red, amber’s hues are influenced by various factors such as the tree’s age, the presence of minerals, and the environment in which it was formed. The most prized color is a rich, warm honey tone known as “classic amber.” However, other shades like green, blue, and even black can also be found, each possessing its own unique charm.

Amber’s beauty has been admired and sought after throughout history. Ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, valued amber for its aesthetic appeal and believed it possessed magical properties. It was often used in jewelry, amulets, and religious artifacts. Today, amber continues to be highly regarded in the world of jewelry, with designers incorporating it into modern and innovative pieces.

Beyond its visual allure, amber also possesses interesting physical properties. It is lightweight, making it comfortable to wear as jewelry. Additionally, amber is an excellent conductor of electricity when rubbed, a phenomenon known as “static electricity.” This property has been utilized in various scientific experiments and has even inspired the creation of electrostatic generators.

Amber has also been used for medicinal purposes throughout history. Its healing properties were believed to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote general well-being. Today, amber is still used in alternative medicine practices, particularly in Baltic countries where it is believed to have therapeutic effects on various ailments.

In recent years, scientists have discovered that amber contains a substance called succinic acid. This compound has been found to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, leading to its use in skincare products and supplements. The potential health benefits of succinic acid have sparked interest in the scientific community, with ongoing research exploring its applications in various fields.

Have you ever experienced a profound feeling of déjà vu that you couldn’t easily dismiss? Alternatively, have you ever had an uncanny but recognizable dream regarding a specific moment or era in the past? It is likely that such experiences are attributed to memories from a past life.

Our physical bodies and souls both hold significant remnants from the past. Our bodies store cellular memories inherited from our ancestors within our genetic makeup, while our souls possess energetic imprints and karmic wisdom from our past lives.

Our soul is eternal and transcends individual lifetimes, accumulating wisdom, experiences and lessons across multiple incarnations.

The enduring impacts of intense traumas, transformative events, and extreme hardships from our ancestors and past lives are imprinted within our physical and spiritual DNA.

The legacy of these cellular and soul memories sometimes resurfaces in our present lives in a variety of ways. For example, it may manifest as an inexplicable behavior, an irrational phobia, an unusual talent, or a strange preference that can be traced back to past life experiences.

An unexplained fear of water or an inexplicable talent for playing a musical instrument can often be linked to a past life. In some cases, individuals are even born with moles, birthmarks or physical anomalies that correspond to injuries or wounds sustained in a past life. This phenomenon is known as “birthmark reincarnation.”

All the records of your past lives are contained within your own mind, just as the records of your ancestors are contained within your DNA ~ Frederick Lenz

Occasionally, individuals exhibit proficiency or capabilities in areas they have not formally studied during their present lifetime. Such instances may entail an abrupt ability to speak or comprehend a foreign language, or possess exceptional expertise in a specific era of history.

Past life memories are often reported in the field of past life regression therapy, in which people undergo hypnosis to access memories or experiences from past lives. In some cases, clients relive intense emotions or sensations related to past life traumas that are associated with present day fears or phobias. For example, a person with an unexplained fear of swimming in their current life, despite never having experienced a traumatic water-related incident, may recall vivid memories of drowning in a past incarnation. Addressing these past life traumas can alleviate or even heal the present fears or phobias.

A well-known instance of memories from a previous life that has been extensively studied is the case of James Leininger. Since a young age, James had frequent nightmares about being stuck in a burning airplane crash. He also spoke about being a pilot named James during World War II, flying a Corsair from a vessel called the Natoma, and having a friend named Jack Larsen. James’ parents, Bruce and Andrea Leininger, conducted their own investigation and discovered remarkable resemblances between James’ peculiar memories and the life of James Huston Jr, an American pilot who died in combat in 1945.

His parents, despite being initially doubtful, eventually confirmed many of James’ claims, including specific information about Huston’s airplane and the events surrounding his death. The case quickly became a topic of interest in the media and was covered in numerous books and television programs. Child psychiatrist Jim Tucker conducted an investigation into the case and recorded James’ recollections to eliminate other possible explanations, such as deception or imagination.

The Leiningers’ journey also included a trip to the site where Huston’s plane crashed, which brought closure and healing to James. Today, his story continues to spark discussions about reincarnation and the nature of consciousness.

Sometimes, we are able to identify individuals, locations, or things even if we have never come across them before in our current existence. This feeling of familiarity typically indicates a connection to a past life. Additionally, we may experience intense emotions of attachment or dislike towards certain individuals, places, or things that cannot be easily justified by our present life experiences.

No matter how you arrive at the awareness and belief that you’ve lived before and will live again, the most lasting healing benefit will be the change in your attitude ~ Lianne Downey

Some people even experience actual past-life memories or vivid flashbacks of unfamiliar events, people, or places. However, past life memories most often occur while we are in an altered state of consciousness. Altered states of consciousness (ASC) are any state of awareness that is significantly different from normal waking consciousness. Common types of altered states include:

Different methods of meditation can induce various altered states, such as mindfulness, concentration, or transcendental meditation. These states are characterized by increased awareness, profound relaxation, and sharp focus.

Flow states are states of complete immersion and intense focus in an activity, commonly referred to as “being in the zone.” These states result in heightened performance and a sense of timelessness. They are typically experienced during activities that are both highly challenging and engaging.

Dream states refer to the periods of sleep, particularly the REM stage, wherein we encounter dreams that are marked by vibrant visuals, intense emotions, and narrative sequences. It is common to have recurring dreams or nightmares in this state, depicting events or situations from our past lives. These dreams typically encompass vivid particulars and evoke strong emotions.

Trance states: Trance states are characterized by a narrowed focus of attention, decreased awareness of the external environment, and an altered sense of self. Trance states can be induced by various practices, including deep meditation, religious rituals, shamanic drumming, or repetitive chanting.

Hypnotic states refer to a state of mind characterized by increased susceptibility to suggestions, profound relaxation, and undivided focus. In the state of hypnosis, people undergo changes in how they perceive, remember, and behave, usually influenced by the directions given by a hypnotist. Past life regression therapy utilizes this altered state to tap into memories and experiences from previous lifetimes. The objective of regression therapy is to investigate and address unresolved problems or traumas that have carried over from past incarnations.

Psychedelic states: Substances with psychedelic properties like LSD, psilocybin (magic mushrooms), DMT, ayahuasca, peyote, and iboga have the ability to profoundly alter consciousness. These alterations may manifest as hallucinations, shifts in perception of time and space, and changes in mood and thought patterns.

Out-of-body experiences (OBEs): OBEs involve the sensation of floating or leaving one’s physical body and observing the world from an external perspective. OBEs can occur spontaneously or be induced by techniques such as meditation, sensory deprivation or psychedelics.

Near-death experiences (NDEs): NDEs occur in individuals who have been close to death or have experienced life-threatening situations. NDEs often involve a range of subjective experiences, including feelings of peace, out-of-body sensations, and encounters with light or deceased loved ones.

The strangers we see in our dreams are not so strange after all, as they have existed in our past lives and only momentarily forgotten ~ Lorin Morgan-Richards

Exploring one’s past life memories can be very healing and transformative. The most effective way to do this is through practices that induce an altered state of consciousness, such as deep meditation, hypnosis, regression therapy, dreamwork, channeling, automatic writing, shamanic ceremonies using psychoactive plants, vision quest rituals, trance states induced by rhythmic drumming, chanting, or dancing, or sensory deprivation techniques such as floatation tanks and isolation chambers.

Past life readings are another way to explore past life memories, but it is recommended that you consult with a professional who specializes in past life readings, akashic readings, or trance channeling. Choose a reputable psychic medium with a track record of ethical and accurate readings. In these sessions, the practitioner will access information about your past lives, soul contracts, and karmic lessons to give you guidance and clarity about your current life path.

While there are different approaches to accessing past life memories, it’s important to approach the process with an open mind and a willingness to explore your inner experiences. The good news is that past life memories are accessible to all of us, and it is not even necessary to seek the help of a professional, although a good past life reader or regression therapist can be invaluable in your quest.

A straightforward and enjoyable method to commence the exploration of your previous life experiences is by initiating the practice of maintaining a dream journal. Dreaming presents the simplest pathway for us to attain an alternative level of awareness, and past lives often manifest within our dreams without us fully recognizing it. In our dreams, the distinctions between the past, present, and future become less rigid. As we progress through various stages of sleep, our brainwaves alter, granting us entry to the profound recesses of the subconscious where our memories of past lives are stored.

Past life memories appear symbolically in our dreams through recurring themes, settings, characters, or historical scenarios. By recording and reflecting on our dreams in a journal, we can gain insight into recurring patterns, unresolved conflicts, and hidden aspects of the self that may be connected to past life experiences.

Dreams can provide a spontaneous first glimpse into certain past life memories that can later be further explored and validated through readings, regression sessions, and other past life access practices. Dream journaling can therefore serve as a valuable introductory tool to begin the journey of exploring past life memories.

Remember that exploring past life memories is a subjective and personal process, and not everyone will experience clear or vivid memories. Approach the journey with patience, curiosity and an open heart, allowing yourself to trust your own intuition and inner guidance.

Past life memories are like tapestries; they are constructed one thread at a time, and it is only when many of these threads come together that we begin to see a complete picture. And it may not be the picture you were expecting! The important thing is to use your discoveries as a learning or growth experience, and don’t be disappointed by what you may find.

Exploring the Depths of Your Memories from Previous Lives

Have you ever had déjà vu, a feeling of familiarity in a situation that you know is impossible? Or perhaps you’ve had vivid dreams that make you feel like you’re in another time and place. These experiences might be glimpses of memories from your past lives.

The concept of past lives, or reincarnation, has fascinated people for centuries. Many cultures and religions believe that our souls have lived multiple lives, each with its own experiences and lessons. Exploring your past life memories can be an interesting journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

So how can you start uncovering your memories from past lives? Here are some techniques and practices that can help you in this intriguing quest:

1. Meditation: Meditation is a powerful tool for accessing your subconscious mind, where past life memories are thought to reside. By quieting your thoughts and focusing inward, you can create a space for these memories to surface. Find a calm and comfortable environment, close your eyes, and let your mind relax. Imagine yourself in a peaceful setting and ask your higher self or spiritual guides to guide you towards any relevant past life memories for your present journey.

2. Regression Therapy: Regression therapy involves working with a therapist who specializes in guiding individuals through past life regressions. Through deep relaxation and hypnosis techniques, the therapist helps you access your subconscious mind and explore past life memories. This approach can be especially helpful if you have difficulty remembering or understanding specific memories or recurring dreams.

3. Dream Analysis: Pay attention to your dreams as they can offer valuable insights into your past lives. Keep a dream journal by your bed and write down any dreams that feel significant or evoke strong emotions. Look for recurring themes, symbols, or historical periods that appear in your dreams. Analyzing these patterns can give you clues about your past life experiences.

4. Intuitive Guidance: Seek guidance from intuitive practitioners, such as psychics or mediums, who can tap into the spiritual realm. They may be able to connect with your past life memories and provide valuable information and insights. However, it’s important to approach this with an open mind and discernment, as not all practitioners are genuine.

5. Synchronicities and Intuitive Prompts: Pay attention to meaningful coincidences or synchronicities in your life. These can be signs from the universe that guide you towards uncovering your past life memories. Trust your intuition and follow any prompts or hunches that arise, as they may lead you to important discoveries.

Remember, exploring past life memories is a personal journey, and it’s important to approach it with an open mind and curiosity. The purpose of uncovering these memories is not to dwell on the past, but to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your life’s purpose.

As you delve into your past life memories, be prepared for a range of emotions and experiences. Some memories may be pleasant and enlightening, while others may be challenging or even traumatic. It’s crucial to approach this process with self-compassion and seek support from trusted friends, family, or professionals if needed.

A client recently discussed her difficulties with managing anger and expressed frustration with her inability to resolve her ‘anger issues’. She worried that her anger would inevitably invite and result in more negativity in her life.

There is value and wisdom in feeling angry, according to Spirit’s response. It is undeniable that at times we become extremely enraged and furious. This is a normal response to situations that oppose our wants and wishes. If anger were not a natural reaction, we would not experience it during our physical existence.

The truth is that all negative emotions are actually a dear friend who is there to tell us something. It indicates that we are out of alignment with our Higher Self, Spirit and the Divine. When we experience fear, anxiety or anger it indicates that we are out of alignment and no longer in the flow.

One prevalent factor that leads to pain is the narratives we create concerning the future. An often encountered story among my clients starts as follows: “I can only achieve happiness when…”

We create a story about the fulfilment of certain desires and then focus more on the result or outcome rather than the process and the present moment. When our happiness depends on the future fulfilment of a story, we are no longer in resonance with the present reality and out of alignment with the universal flow. We are no longer living fully, we are merely playing an impatient waiting game.

Anger is just anger. It isn’t good. It isn’t bad. It just is. What you do with it is what matters ~ Jim Butcher

There are two ways to respond to creating a story. Either we attempt to manipulate every aspect of the situation to make it happen, but this typically has negative consequences. Alternatively, we may have doubts that our desires will ever come true. However, both of these responses contradict the reality that our original desires are inspired by our spirit and it is our soul’s intention for them to be fulfilled.

Our wishes and desires are inherently benevolent and good. They are an expression of our innate ability as incarnated spirit beings to create, attract and manifest. They are conceived by our Higher Self, the Spirit and the Divine, and are therefore meant to be fulfilled!

Our wishes and desires, which originate from a spiritual inspiration, can be distorted or corrupted when we attempt to exert excessive control or prioritize fulfilling our ego-driven impulses. Adversely, these occurrences can lead to unfavorable and damaging outcomes. However, it is important to recognize that our wishes and desires in their pure state are bestowed upon us by a higher power.

If all desires in their original state are inherently positive, as long as we stay in harmony and have faith in the cosmic order, how does anger impact the realization of our divine desires? At first glance, anger does not appear to be in alignment or in harmony with the cosmic flow. How can anger be perceived as spiritual?

To gain a complete comprehension of the significance and benefits of anger (and other adverse emotions) and its impact on the realization of our wishes, we must acknowledge two fundamental spiritual principles of manifestation.

The Mystical Power Of Faith

The first important spiritual principle to understand about the manifestation process is that our life experiences unfold based on our faith and mental focus. As creative spirit entities, we manifest realities based on our personal beliefs. Our beliefs are so powerful that they continually expand or limit our realities. Faith or belief is a creative force within each of us that drives the manifestation process.

This spiritual principle is confirmed in many ancient texts and spiritual teachings. In Christianity, for example, faith is a central concept. The Bible emphasises in numerous verses the importance of faith in manifesting miracles and bringing about desired results. For example, Jesus often performed miracles in response to people’s faith, such as healing the sick or raising the dead. Jesus also said that with enough faith a person could move a mountain.

In Buddhism, the influence of faith is frequently observed within the context of the mind’s role in shaping the world. The idea of “mindfulness” highlights the significance of one’s thoughts and beliefs in determining their experiences and perceptions of reality. According to the teachings of the Buddha, by transforming one’s mind, it is possible to overcome suffering and achieve enlightenment. Another example can be found in Hindu philosophy, where the concept of bhakti or devotion is emphasized. Devotees firmly believe that their loyalty and dedication to a deity can bring blessings, protection, and even liberation from the cycle of life and death. The Bhagavad Gita, a highly respected Hindu scripture, extensively discusses the power of faith and devotion.

It is prudent to channel your anger towards issues rather than individuals, and to dedicate your efforts towards finding solutions instead of making excuses. ~ William Arthur Ward

The Divine Source Of Abundance

The second important principle of manifestation is that we are all connected to an infinite and powerful source of abundance and benevolence that fulfils our desires. Known to us as God, Source, Spirit, the Divine, the Universe, it is a central concept in many spiritual and religious traditions. There is a limitless and omnipotent energy or higher power from which all things come and to which all things return.

As creators of our individual and collective realities, it is essential for us to establish a connection with an inexhaustible source of wealth or contentment. This source, whether universal or divine, is not bound by earthly limitations and possesses the power to profoundly change our lives and the world. By linking ourselves to this boundless wellspring of creativity, we amplify our ability to bring our desires into reality.

Numerous religious practices emphasize the significance of belief and giving up control in order to establish a connection with a higher power. When we let go of our own desires and have faith in the knowledge and kindness of the universe, we become receptive to receiving guidance, assistance, and abundance from an endless source. Aligning ourselves with this boundless source signifies a deep comprehension of the true nature of our existence and our role in it. It prompts us to recognize our innate ability to shape and collaborate in the creation process while acknowledging the inherent sanctity and interdependence of all life.

The Wisdom Of Anger

Returning all your notifications and comments in English:

Returning to the emotion of anger, it is crucial to avoid labeling it as “bad” since this hinders the process of manifestation. Anger is not inherently negative or positive. It is simply a vibration of energy. It exists without any inherent moral value. All energy present in the universe is inherently neutral. This neutrality implies that spiritual energy itself cannot be classified as either good or bad; it purely exists.

The way neutral energy appears in our lives depends on our intentions, thoughts, beliefs, and actions. When we have positive intentions and take positive actions, we create uplifting and beneficial experiences. Conversely, negative intentions and actions result in discordant and undesirable outcomes.

I am sure you have seen in your own situation that when you try to resist your anger, it only increases or finds a way to express itself in other ways. This can often manifest in addictions, relationship difficulties, violent behaviour and other self-destructive patterns. It is the outer manifestation of an inner reality. The dilemma here is not that anger is bad, but that the vibration of anger (and all the pain experiences we go through) will not go away until its purpose or higher truth is revealed and acknowledged.

When you feel anger, do not attempt to restrain, dismiss, or push it away. Instead, embrace it and inquire about the lessons it can teach you. This process is not based on reason or logic. For instance, at times when I experience anger, it may urge me to cry or scream loudly. However, when I address my pain, I consistently discover that it conveys a message. The message I often receive is that it signifies an aspect of my life where I am not aligned with the kindness of God. Typically, this is due to my lack of faith and confidence in God’s ability to fulfill my spiritually motivated aspirations.

Sometimes, the anger stems from previous experiences. It involves emotional distress linked to past connections. For instance, in my younger years, I faced certain financial difficulties. Consequently, when I feel anxious about money in the present, it often reminds me of those past challenges and suffering. My ego continuously holds onto a fear-based narrative, attempting to validate the belief that the Universal Source of Abundance cannot fulfill my financial requirements.

My ego attachment to this fear-based story from my past is not conducive to my God-given desires. In essence, if I choose to believe that my innate desires for financial prosperity are not good because they may never be fulfilled, then I am denying the reality that they are spirit given. I am out of alignment and trying to manifest with resistance and lack of awareness rather than trusting the flow with an abundance mindset. Until I align with the reality that there are enough resources to fulfil these desires, I will never find actual fulfilment.

If anger is ignored or dismissed, it will only slow down or prevent the achievement of your desires. It will turn into a harmful and negative force in your life. However, if you acknowledge and deal with your anger in a healthy manner, considering it as a message or indicator, rather than suppressing or neglecting it, you will realign yourself with what is best for you and gain the ability to bring your natural desires into reality.

Typically, individuals tend to be inactive when they feel sad. They simply shed tears, dwelling on their circumstances. However, when they become angry, they take action, leading to transformation ~ Malcolm X

Strategies For Expressing Anger

Some possible approaches for effectively communicating and dealing with anger in a positive and empowering manner are:

Acknowledge and affirm: Understand that it is acceptable to experience anger and acknowledge the truthfulness of your emotions. Avoid repressing or dismissing your emotions, as doing so can result in harboring bitterness and resentment within yourself.

Take a moment to stop and think: Prior to reacting hastily, pause for a while and contemplate on what caused your anger. Determine the hidden emotions and thoughts that are fueling your anger, as well as any recurring patterns or triggers that might be present.

Engage in mindfulness: Engage in various mindfulness practices like deep breathing, meditation, or progressive muscle relaxation to bring tranquility to your mind and body. Mindfulness enables you to observe your anger without feeling consumed by it and allows you to respond with greater expertise.

Engage in spiritual practices such as prayer, metta meditation, affirmations, rituals, or ceremonies to cultivate forgiveness, love, and inner peace. This may involve actions like lighting candles, burning sage or incense, or performing symbolic rituals to release anger and invite healing and peace. Repeat affirmations like “I let go of anger and welcome peace” or “I forgive myself and others for any harm done.” Utilize journaling as a means of self-exploration, healing, and personal growth.

Service and compassion: Instead of giving in to feelings of frustration and anger about injustices you encounter in the world, do something to help alleviate or change them. Engage in acts of service, compassion and activism to channel your anger into positive action and contribute to the greater good. Volunteer your time, skills or resources to help those in need and foster a sense of connection, purpose and spiritual fulfilment.

Express your anger in a assertive and respectful manner by using “I” statements to convey your feelings, needs, and boundaries. Refrain from blaming or criticizing others and instead emphasize constructive communication.

Establish limitations: Create explicit limitations that shield you from circumstances or actions that provoke your anger. Communicate these boundaries with assertiveness and consistency, and be ready to uphold them when required.

Engage in physical activity: Redirect your anger into activities like taking a walk, doing yoga, or using a punching bag. Physical activity aids in releasing built-up energy and stress, ultimately fostering relaxation and a feeling of well-being.

Creative outlets: Express your anger through creative outlets such as writing, drawing, painting or playing music. Creative expression can be a healthy and constructive way to process emotions and gain insight into your feelings.

Get help: Consult with close friends, family members, or a therapist to receive assistance and confirmation. Engaging in conversations about your emotions with a trusted individual can provide you with a different outlook and enable you to discover constructive methods to manage your anger.

“A person with a steady mind, unaffected by the threefold miseries or overly excited by happiness, and who is detached, fearless, and free from anger, is referred to as a sage.”

Next time you feel angry, remind yourself that the great spiritual teachers, such as Jesus and Buddha, have all taught us that holding onto anger only perpetuates suffering and separation. Instead, they advocated responding to anger with love, compassion and forgiveness, recognising the interconnectedness of all beings and the transformative power of empathy and understanding.

Jesus, although known for teachings of love, compassion, and forgiveness, did feel and display negative emotions such as anger or frustration. However, it is crucial to note that his anger was primarily aimed at unjust actions or behaviors, rather than individuals personally.

In the Gospels, there is a significant incident where Jesus purifies the temple. The story in Matthew 21:12-13 recounts Jesus’ actions as he enters the temple and removes the people engaged in buying and selling. He overturns the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. Jesus addresses them, saying, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you are turning it into a hideout for thieves.”

In Buddhist tradition, Siddhartha Gautama, who later became known as the Buddha, experienced various human emotions before attaining enlightenment. While the Buddha’s teachings emphasize overcoming suffering, including anger, through the Noble Eightfold Path and the practice of mindfulness, there are accounts suggesting that he experienced anger prior to his enlightenment.

One such story involves an incident where the Buddha encountered a group of ascetics who criticized him and his followers. Initially, the Buddha felt anger rising within him, but he later reflected on the situation and responded with compassion and understanding. This event is often cited as an example of the Buddha’s ability to recognize and overcome anger through mindful awareness and insight.

Acknowledge, contemplate and channel anger constructively whenever it arises in your life. It has the potential for great wisdom and healing to manifest abundance and prosperity in your life.

The Significance of Anger in Attaining Your Goals

When we consider anger, we often associate it with negative feelings and harmful behavior. However, anger can actually be a valuable tool in reaching our goals and bringing about positive change in our lives. While it is important to handle and express anger in a healthy manner, tapping into its energy can propel us forward and assist us in overcoming obstacles. In this article, we will explore the importance of anger in achieving your desires and how to effectively channel it.

1. Motivation and Determination:
Anger can act as a catalyst for change by fueling our motivation and determination. When we feel angry about a situation or injustice, it ignites a passion within us to take action and make things right. This intense emotion can drive us to work harder, persist through challenges, and remain focused on our goals. Anger can serve as the driving force behind our determination to achieve our desires.

2. Establishing Boundaries:
Anger can also aid us in setting boundaries and asserting ourselves in various situations. When we feel angry, it often indicates that our values or personal boundaries have been violated. By recognizing and expressing our anger in a constructive manner, we communicate to others what is acceptable and what is not. This assertiveness is crucial in achieving our desires because it ensures that we are treated with respect and that our needs are met.

3. Overcoming Challenges:
In the pursuit of our desires, we are likely to face obstacles and setbacks along the way. Anger can be a powerful tool in helping us overcome these challenges. When confronted with an obstacle, anger can provide us with the energy and determination required to find alternative solutions, think creatively, and persist until we attain our desired outcome. It can assist us in pushing through adversity and maintaining a resilient mindset.

4. Self-Reflection and Growth:
Anger can also serve as a valuable tool for self-reflection and personal growth. When we experience anger, it presents an opportunity to examine the underlying reasons behind it. By exploring our anger, we can gain insights into our values, needs, and desires. This self-reflection enables us to make informed decisions and take actions that align with our true selves. Anger can be a catalyst for personal growth and self-improvement.

5. Advocacy and Social Change:
Throughout history, anger has played a significant role in advocating for social change and justice. Many movements and revolutions have been fueled by anger towards inequality, oppression, and injustice. By channeling anger into constructive actions such as peaceful protests, advocacy, or community organizing, individuals and communities can work towards achieving their desires for a fairer and more just society.

While anger can be a powerful tool, it is crucial to effectively manage it. Uncontrolled anger can lead to harmful behavior and damage relationships. To harness the power of anger in achieving your desires, consider the following tips:

1. Recognize and acknowledge your anger.
2. Take a step back and contemplate the underlying reasons for your anger.
3. Channel your anger into productive actions such as problem-solving or seeking support.
4. Practice healthy coping mechanisms like exercise, deep breathing, or talking to a trusted friend or therapist.
5. Use assertive communication to express your needs and establish boundaries effectively.

Get ready for a bumpy ride today! The emotional conflict caused by the Libra Moon opposing Mercury in Aries this morning will lead to tension between how we feel and how we communicate.

The presence of the Moon in Libra fosters a sense of unity, negotiation, and a longing for justice in our emotional reactions. In contrast, Mercury in Aries is inclined towards being forceful, straightforward, and prioritizing personal wants and ambitions. This opposition may result in a clash between our urge for emotional equilibrium and our yearning to assertively communicate our thoughts and feelings.

Today, we might face difficulty in finding suitable words to express ourselves or find a middle ground between being assertive and considerate when communicating with others. This challenge will be intensified by the presence of Mercury Retrograde nearing its end.

Tonight, the Libra Moon in conflict with Venus in Aries will extend the conflict between logic and emotions, resulting in feelings of insecurity and imbalance. Libra aims for harmony, equilibrium, and compromise, whereas Aries emphasizes personal desires instead of compromise. This opposition can generate tension between the longing for emotional stability and the urge for assertiveness and independence. Reconciling your emotions with rational wishes and necessities may prove challenging.

There is a Full Moon in Scorpio tomorrow, which will have the greatest impact on the water and earth signs. Full moons are a time of release, and with Mercury retrograde about to end, we will see a lot of endings this week as we prepare to enter a new cycle of being. The Scorpio Moon will continue to rule the skies until Thursday, calling us to go inside and examine what no longer serves us and what we want to keep in our lives.

Mercury turns direct on Thursday, but remember to give the lingering after-effects of retrograde a wide berth until at least May 1st, when the shadow period ends and the remaining energies return to balance.

During the presence of the Sagittarius Moon on Friday and Saturday, a lighter and happier atmosphere surrounds us. It allows us to direct our attention towards the things that bring us joy. We will feel a newfound sense of freedom and a sincere appreciation, which will be noticeable to those around us.

Sunday’s Capricorn Moon may call for a time of reckoning, whether it’s taking stock of our finances or our physical health, both of which could use a rebalancing!

Astrology Forecast for April 22 – 28, 2024: Insights into the Celestial Energies

As we step into the week of April 22 – 28, 2024, the celestial energies are set to bring forth a mix of intensity, transformation, and opportunities for growth. Astrology enthusiasts and curious individuals alike can look forward to a dynamic week ahead, as the planets align to create a unique cosmic dance. Let’s delve into what the astrology forecast has in store for us during this period.

Aries Season Continues:
The Sun continues its journey through the fiery sign of Aries, infusing us with its vibrant energy. Aries, known for its assertiveness and enthusiasm, encourages us to take charge of our lives and pursue our goals with passion. This is an excellent time to initiate new projects, embrace change, and assert our independence. However, be mindful of impulsive actions and temperamental outbursts, as Aries energy can sometimes be intense.

Mercury Enters Taurus:
On April 24th, Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, moves into the grounded sign of Taurus. This shift brings a more practical and methodical approach to our thinking and communication styles. We may find ourselves seeking stability and reliability in our conversations and decision-making processes. It’s an ideal time to focus on long-term goals, financial matters, and building solid foundations.

Pluto Retrograde:
Pluto, the planet of transformation and rebirth, begins its annual retrograde journey on April 25th. This retrograde period lasts until October 4th, 2024, offering us an opportunity to delve deep into our subconscious and confront any unresolved issues or patterns that hinder personal growth. It’s a time for introspection, healing, and releasing old attachments. Embrace this transformative energy and allow yourself to shed what no longer serves you.

Full Moon in Scorpio:
The week culminates with a powerful Full Moon in Scorpio on April 27th. Full Moons are known for their intensity and illumination, and when combined with Scorpio’s transformative energy, we can expect profound emotional experiences. This Full Moon invites us to dive into our deepest desires, fears, and passions. It’s a time for introspection, releasing emotional baggage, and embracing personal empowerment. Use this energy to let go of what holds you back and embrace your authentic self.

Jupiter Conjunct Neptune:
On April 27th, Jupiter, the planet of expansion and growth, forms a harmonious conjunction with Neptune, the planet of dreams and spirituality. This alignment encourages us to tap into our intuition, explore our spiritual side, and expand our horizons. It’s a time for seeking higher truths, engaging in creative pursuits, and connecting with our inner wisdom. Embrace this energy to manifest your dreams and embrace a sense of divine guidance.

Like “riding a bicycle,” spiritual knowledge and skills, once learned, are never lost or forgotten. Even if you haven’t practiced or used a certain skill for a long time, you can always quickly pick it up again because it is stored in your soul memory.

Spiritual growth and learning possess a level of permanence that sets them apart from acquiring academic knowledge or vocational skills. Unlike the latter, soul growth and spiritual development stem from personal experiences, moments of profound insight, and transformative shifts that permanently alter the essence of our soul.

Our soul memory serves as the archive of our higher self, containing layers of enlightenment similar to the akashic records. These layers preserve all the spiritual wisdom and abilities we have acquired and remain easily accessible, even after extended periods of non-use or neglect.

At a recent gathering focused on mediumship, I had the opportunity to witness a medium showcasing various psychic techniques and approaches that she had extensively relied upon throughout her personal journey in psychic development.

Many years ago, I participated in a psychic development class at the Arthur Findlay College of Spiritualism and Psychic Sciences in Essex, England. As part of the class, we engaged in a enjoyable activity known as “ribbon psychometry.”

Objects and personal belongings hold energy and stories that, if listened to, can guide us to deeper understandings and sometimes even solve mysteries ~ Pam Coronado

Psychometry is the psychic practice of reading or channeling information through psychic touch, also known as “clairtangency.” Clairtangency is a form of extrasensory perception in which practitioners perceive psychic impressions from an object they are touching or holding. The practice was first popularized in the 1840s by Joseph Buchanan, an American professor of physiology who coined the term “psychometry” and conducted experiments to demonstrate the phenomenon.

Leonora Piper, a highly respected psychic medium during the late 1800s and early 1900s, gained recognition for her extraordinary psychometric skills. She astounded numerous researchers by accurately discerning specific details about an object’s owner just by touching it. Piper’s remarkable abilities greatly contributed to the investigation and advancement of psychometry and psychic phenomena in that era.

We can gather a lot of psychic information by touching or holding everyday objects, especially things like jewelry and clothing that still carry the energy imprint of their owner, both living and deceased.  I have even witnessed information given to a grieving pet owner when a medium held the collar and toys of their deceased dog.

Ribbon psychometry is a variation of this practice where the psychometric object (also known as the link object) is a ribbon. It is a popular exercise often done in mediumship workshops and psychic development classes. Participants are asked to “read” a ribbon that has been held, worn or owned by another person. They then attempt to perceive psychic impressions about the person’s life experiences, history, personality, and emotions based solely on holding the ribbon.

The inspiration for using ribbons in readings may come from Celtic esotericism. Ribbons have long been utilized in pagan rituals and ceremonies, and are still prominent in contemporary Wiccan and Neopagan traditions. In these practices, ribbons hold symbolic significance and are often incorporated into ritualistic activities aimed at manifesting desires, warding off unwanted energies, or honoring connections with the natural world, the divine, and others. In present-day Pagan customs, ribbons are utilized in various ways, such as during maypole dancing, handfasting ceremonies, wishing trees, and rituals intended to safeguard, heal, or dispel negative energies.

I have fond memories of my first experience doing a ribbon reading at Arthur Findlay College many years ago. During a recent psychic event, we did a similar activity, but with colored paper strips. It was a nostalgic moment for me. I can recall our mentor at the college placing a large bunch of ribbons of different colors in the middle of the student circle. Each of us took turns selecting a ribbon from the vibrant pile and then went back to our seats. We were advised to gently stroke the ribbon for a few minutes to let it absorb our energy.

Objects carry with them a light as distinct to us as the sunlight is to you. The instant you hand us an object, that instant we get an impression of its owner, whether the present or the past owner and often both ~ Leonora Piper

Afterwards, we were partnered with a classmate to trade and peruse each other’s ribbons. I recall being paired with an elder Welsh man. He appeared to be just as anxious as I was as a beginner, but I was astounded by the accurate information about me and my life that he managed to gather from that ribbon. He seemed pleasantly taken aback, even slightly startled, when I confirmed that he was completely correct!

Afterwards, it was my opportunity to read for him, and at that moment, I understood that he would be quite challenging to surpass! However, I composed myself and utilized the strategies we were instructed to access our psychic perception and eliminate the interference from our logical and analytical mind.

I don’t remember much of what I told him in the reading, but I do remember my first impressions were that he had driven a green car from home very early that morning to attend the class. I also remember telling him that it looked to me like some kind of SUV, like a Land Rover or Range Rover. I also felt that he might be an off-road enthusiast. I also remember feeling the strong emotional connection he had with his daughter and that she was interested in energy healing.

I felt relieved when the reading finally ended and I recall feeling a bit silly discussing vehicles I had no knowledge of! However, he did affirm that he drove a Land Rover with a short wheelbase (which I had to ask him to clarify for me). He also confirmed that his daughter was studying Reiki at that time and emphasized their strong bond.

The recent event involving mediumship and the resulting recollection of this specific encounter has motivated me to reexamine psychometry and potentially resume practicing it. I recall being educated that using metal objects is an ideal starting point since they effectively retain energy. Examples of suitable items include jewelry, keys, or well-used watches. Therefore, I believe focusing on these objects will help me return to practicing psychometry.

While there is a certain permanence to our spiritual learning and skill development, this is not to say that some maintenance is not necessary. Just as a bicycle may need tuning after years of disuse, we need to engage with spiritual practices in order to fully reactivate and embody their spiritual insights and skills. But it is good to be reminded that nothing we learn spiritually is ever lost or in vain.

Psychometry is an intriguing facet of psychic abilities that allows individuals to acquire information about something or someone by simply touching it. Ribbon psychometry, specifically, entails using ribbons or fabric pieces to connect with the energy of the owner or wearer. Intrigued by this concept, I recently partook in my initial ribbon psychometry experience. This proved to be an enlightening journey, and I would like to share the details and insights I gained from this practice.

To initiate my ribbon psychometry session, I collected various ribbons from different sources. Some were given to me, while others were obtained from second-hand stores. Each ribbon possessed distinct colors, patterns, and textures, which I believed contributed to the energy they held.

For my first object of focus, I chose a vibrant purple ribbon with intricate floral patterns. Holding it in my hands, I closed my eyes and took deep breaths to center myself. I then directed my attention towards the ribbon, allowing my senses to become attuned to any impressions or sensations.

As I held the ribbon, my fingertips began to tingle, as if a gentle electric current was passing through them. This sensation was accompanied by a rush of images and emotions flooding my mind. I visualized a joyful celebration, with people dancing and laughing. The accompanying emotions were overwhelmingly positive, filled with love, happiness, and unity.

Intrigued to learn more, I continued to explore the ribbon’s energy. As time passed, the impressions became clearer and more vivid. I witnessed a young woman wearing the ribbon, her face radiant with joy as she celebrated a significant milestone. It seemed that the ribbon held the memories and emotions of this special occasion, allowing me to tap into and experience the energy personally.

Each subsequent ribbon presented a unique experience. A soft, pastel-colored one evoked feelings of tranquility and peace. I saw images of a serene garden with blooming flowers and chirping birds. It was as if the ribbon had absorbed the essence of nature, bringing a sense of calm and harmony to its wearer.

Another ribbon, this time bold and red, exhibited an entirely different energy. It emanated passion, strength, and determination. I visualized a fiery sunset, symbolizing the burning desire and ambition of its owner. It was evident that this ribbon had been worn by someone driven and relentless in their pursuit of goals.

Through my first encounter with ribbon psychometry, I discovered that each ribbon carried a unique story and energy. The colors, patterns, and textures acted as conduits for the emotions and memories absorbed from their owners. It served as a powerful reminder that objects can harbor energetic imprints accessible through psychometric abilities.

Ribbon psychometry provides a captivating method to connect with the past, gain insights into people’s lives, and tap into object energy. By engaging in this practice, we can explore unseen dimensions of our surroundings and develop a deeper understanding of the world around us.

If you’re interested in exploring ribbon psychometry or any form of psychometry, it’s important to approach it with an open mind and trust your intuition. Practice and patience are key in developing your abilities and interpreting the impressions you receive.

Lastly, remember that psychometry is a profoundly personal experience, and each person may have their own unique way of connecting with object energy. Embrace the journey and allow yourself to be guided by the surrounding energy. Who knows what fascinating stories and insights await you as you delve into the world of ribbon psychometry!

Sometimes in life, we can experience extreme highs and lows, going from feeling ecstatic to completely shattered. Life can be difficult, but Spirit emphasizes that our attitude is crucial in how we navigate through it.

The ups and downs of life’s emotions are a natural aspect of being human. Nonetheless, by adopting a positive mindset, we can turn this journey into a chance to evolve, gain knowledge, and experience deep spiritual enlightenment. Selecting the right attitude has the power to alleviate the intense fluctuations of life’s emotional ride.

Our soul purpose requires that there be times of great happiness and deep sorrow, for it is through successes and hardships that we learn how to evolve spiritually.

When we make the decision to have faith in the process and accept our journey with a positive mindset, it becomes simpler to handle the stressful challenges and responsibilities of daily life.

The way we view the highs and lows of life has a significant impact on our experiences. Having a positive attitude can help us better manage the emotional difficulties that come with challenges. It’s similar to adding a cushion to a roller coaster seat – it doesn’t eliminate the dips and drops, but it does make the ride more tolerable.

We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude ~ Charles R. Swindoll

The spiritual wisdom of embracing life with the right attitude is not a new concept. Since the dawn of civilization, ancient philosophers, enlightened gurus, and wise sages have recognized and taught this truth. Their teachings echo through the ages, reminding us that while we may not have control over the events that unfold in our lives, we do have control over how we respond to them.

The significance of attitude in navigating life has been emphasized by spiritual traditions and teachings for a long time. Our journey as souls is meant to include a range of experiences, both joyful and sorrowful. This duality is not a mistake, but rather it is a part of our existence that helps us evolve spiritually. Success and hardship work together to push us forward on our spiritual path, providing valuable lessons that aid in our personal growth.

Attitude Is A Choice

We all know people who seem hardwired to always walk on the sunny side of the street and see the glass as half full. But we also know many cynical people who focus primarily on the doom and gloom. They allow their present circumstances to define their future. These self-limiting people bring everyone down because they choose to be frustrated and unhappy.

Our outlook on life is a conscious decision. Despite any situation, certain individuals have the ability to approach each day with conviction, whereas others anticipate the worst outcomes. Gradually, this persistent negativity affects one’s mental state and magnifies the perception of life as a perpetual struggle, even during positive moments.

Choosing to have a positive mindset doesn’t involve disregarding the hardships and difficulties we encounter in life. Instead, it means placing trust in the process and accepting our life’s journey with hopeful determination. By doing this, we allow ourselves to delve into a greater comprehension of the meaning behind our experiences and gain the fortitude to gracefully navigate through them.

The quality of your life is not predominantly influenced by the circumstances that come your way, but rather by your perspective and approach towards life. It is not solely about the events that occur, but about how you perceive and interpret them in your mind.

Attitude Is A Habit

Attitude is simply a habit or learned behavior, so it is always possible to make some changes to improve your outlook on life. Many of us also need to work on raising our “level of deservingness. If you are surrounded by many doomsayers and naysayers who want to keep you in your current state of negativity, don’t be afraid to stand up and assert your position in this world.

It is crucial to understand that as a spiritual being, you possess the divine power to create, draw in, and bring about anything you set your mind to, whether it be positive or negative outcomes. If you maintain a defeated, victimized, self-pitying, lacking, or resentful mindset, you will still experience a result, though not necessarily the desired one. By concentrating on positive aspects, you will attract more positive things into your life. Take a moment to observe your accomplishments and manifestations thus far. If you find them unsatisfactory, make the decision at this very moment to focus more on your desired achievements, rather than fixating on your current surroundings.

By developing a positive mindset, we not only reduce the influence of difficulties in life, but also enhance our capacity to find happiness and satisfaction. It empowers us to confront the everyday stresses with calmness and belief, recognizing that every encounter, whether positive or negative, contributes towards our spiritual growth.

After deciding to alter your perspective, how can you develop a more positive mindset towards life? Spirit suggests that it begins with two important habits: expressing gratitude and practicing mindfulness. These habits are essential for fostering a positive attitude towards the obstacles we face, as they help us change how we perceive adversity and increase our ability to bounce back.

Mindfulness grounds us in the present moment, allowing us to navigate difficulties with a calm and focused mind, diminishing the impact of stress and anxiety. It encourages acceptance and awareness, making us less reactive to negative circumstances.

Expressing gratitude redirects our attention away from our deficiencies and towards our possessions, creating a feeling of abundance and contentment. When we acknowledge the positive aspects of our existence, even in difficult situations, we nurture a hopeful perspective that has the potential to turn obstacles into chances for personal development.

The combination of being mindful and grateful enhances our ability to cope with challenges in a positive and graceful manner, leading to a better quality of life and well-being.

External things are constantly changing. They can be lost at any moment. But the good news is that the real source of happiness is not outside us. It’s within us. It arises from our mental attitude ~ Dalai Lama

How To Practice Gratitude

Gratitude is commonly misunderstood as mere constant expression of gratitude through saying “thank you”, but it goes beyond being a polite gesture or a temporary feeling of appreciation. Fundamentally, true spiritual gratitude involves deeply acknowledging the interconnectedness of all things and recognizing the divine abundance that exists in our lives.

True gratitude is a deep sense of joy, appreciation, and fulfillment that envelops us as we begin to see the beauty and value in every moment, every experience, and the many blessings in our lives, both great and small.

From a metaphysical perspective, gratitude serves as an energetic magnet for positive outcomes and experiences. It raises our vibrational focus from what we lack to what we have, from scarcity to abundance. This shift in perspective not only enhances our mental and emotional well-being, but also aligns us more closely with our spiritual essence. By practicing gratitude, we cultivate a heart and mind that is open and receptive, ready to receive the blessings that life has to offer.

Here are a few methods to start incorporating gratitude into your everyday routine:

Start your day by expressing gratitude for the opportunity to experience a new day. Take a few moments each morning to contemplate and appreciate the different aspects of your life that bring you joy and fulfillment. This could be something as simple as acknowledging the sun’s warmth, the comfort of your bed, or the love of your dear ones. Another impactful way to begin your day is to express gratitude through a prayer, recognizing the blessing of another day of life and the joys it brings. By embracing a thankful mindset in the morning, you set a positive tone for the remainder of the day.

Keeping a gratitude journal is a highly effective method to nurture gratitude. Begin a gratitude journal to ponder upon your productive interactions, achievements, milestones, and outcomes. Every day, find something positive to jot down in your journal. It could be something as minor as a raindrop on a leaf or as significant as a long-awaited success. Every expression of gratitude matters. Eventually, this habit not only heightens your awareness of the blessings in your life but also acts as a reminder of the abundance that envelops you, particularly in difficult times.

Expressing Gratitude: Gratitude grows exponentially when it is shared. Make it a habit to express your appreciation to others, whether it’s saying thank you for a kind gesture, acknowledging someone’s impact on your life, or simply offering a smile. These acts of gratitude not only brighten the day of those around you, but also strengthen your own feelings of gratitude.

Reflection & Learning: Cultivating gratitude isn’t limited to the good times; it’s also about finding value and lessons in the challenges we face. Reflect on difficult experiences and try to identify how they contributed to your growth or changed your perspective for the better. This practice not only builds resilience, but also helps you embrace life’s ups and downs with grace and gratitude.

Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same ~ Carlos Castaneda

How To Practice Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a transformative spiritual practice that can greatly enhance your ability to cultivate a more positive outlook. By promoting awareness of the present moment, mindfulness helps you recognize and appreciate life’s joys, navigate its challenges with grace, and respond to situations with a calm and positive outlook.

Being mindful, showing gratitude, and maintaining a positive outlook are interconnected. When you practice mindfulness, you become attuned to the present moment and develop an awareness of the delightful aspects and blessings it holds. This heightened perception naturally fosters a greater appreciation for life. Whether it involves relishing the taste of a meal, admiring the wonders of nature, or treasuring a heartfelt connection, mindfulness enhances your encounters with gratitude.

Mindfulness also increases your awareness of your thoughts, feelings, and surroundings. This heightened awareness can help you identify negative patterns or triggers in your life. With this understanding, you can consciously choose to focus on the positive aspects of your situation or environment, gradually shifting your perspective to a more optimistic one.

Here are a few strategies to start incorporating mindfulness into your everyday routine:

Mindful Breathing: One of the easiest ways to practice mindfulness is to focus on your breath. Take a few minutes each day to sit quietly and observe your breath. Notice the sensation of air entering and leaving your body, and gently bring your attention back to your breath whenever your mind wanders.

Body Scan Meditation: A meditative body scan involves paying attention to different parts of your body one at a time, noting any sensations or tensions. Start at the top of your head and work your way down to your toes. This practice helps you connect with your body and bring your focus to the present moment.

Mindful Eating: Turn meals into a mindfulness practice by eating slowly and without distractions. Pay attention to the taste, texture, and aroma of your food. Mindful eating not only increases the enjoyment of your meal, but also promotes a more positive and grateful attitude toward food.

Mindful Walking involves taking a stroll and directing your attention solely to the act of walking. Be attentive to the sensation of your feet touching the earth, the cadence of your strides, and the surrounding sights and sounds. Engaging in mindful walking is a wonderful method to cultivate mindfulness while being physically active.

Daily Activities: Incorporate mindfulness into your normal daily activities, such as washing dishes, taking a shower, or even brushing your teeth. Pay attention to the sensations and movements involved in the activity, and gently bring your mind back when it drifts to other thoughts.

Cultivating a positive attitude is a journey that requires regular practice and commitment. By incorporating these spiritual practices into your daily life, you can begin to shift your perspective, embrace positivity, and open yourself up to a more fulfilling and spiritually enriched life.

Life is valuable. Immerse yourself. Take action for improvement. Adopt a fresh perspective. Begin now.

How to Approach Life’s Challenges with a Positive Mindset

Life is filled with ups and downs, unexpected obstacles, and twists and turns. It is easy to get caught up and let these challenges bring us down. However, with the right mindset, we can learn to embrace these challenges and use them as opportunities for personal growth. Here are some suggestions on how to do just that.

1. Acceptance is crucial: The first step in embracing life’s challenges is accepting that they are a natural part of being human. No one’s life is always smooth sailing, and setbacks are inevitable. By accepting this reality, we can let go of resistance and frustration that often accompany unexpected difficulties.

2. Change your perspective: Instead of perceiving challenges as negative, try viewing them as chances for growth and learning. Every challenge has the potential to teach us valuable lessons and make us stronger. By shifting your perspective, you can approach difficult situations with a sense of curiosity and openness instead of fear or resistance.

3. Build resilience: Resilience is the ability to bounce back from adversity and keep moving forward. Developing resilience is essential when it comes to embracing life’s challenges. Find coping mechanisms that help you stay strong in the face of difficulties, such as practicing mindfulness, engaging in regular exercise, or seeking support from loved ones. Remember that setbacks are temporary, and you possess the strength to overcome them.

4. Embrace change: Life’s challenges often come in the form of unexpected changes. Instead of resisting or fearing change, learn to embrace it. Change can bring new opportunities, experiences, and personal growth. Embracing change allows us to adapt and thrive in an ever-changing world.

5. Focus on control: When faced with challenges, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and powerless. However, focusing on what you can control can help you regain a sense of agency and reduce anxiety. Identify the aspects of the situation that you have control over and take action in those areas. This proactive approach can help you navigate difficult times with a greater sense of purpose and control.

6. Practice gratitude: Gratitude is a powerful tool for shifting our mindset and finding joy even in the midst of challenges. Take time each day to reflect on the things you are grateful for, no matter how small they may seem. This practice can help you cultivate a positive outlook and appreciate the blessings in your life, even when things don’t go as planned.

7. Seek support: Remember that you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Reach out to friends, family, or a support group for guidance and encouragement. Sharing your experiences and feelings with others can provide valuable perspective and remind you that you are not alone in your struggles.

In conclusion, embracing life’s challenges with a positive mindset involves acceptance, resilience, and gratitude. By changing your perspective, focusing on what you can control, and seeking support, you can navigate through life’s difficulties with grace and emerge stronger. Remember, it’s not about avoiding challenges but rather learning from them and growing along the way.

As we traverse our human existence, we are continually supported and guided by the spiritual realm and the divine, aiding us in making life choices, fulfilling our spiritual growth, purpose, and gaining glimpses into the future.

The spirits of our departed loved ones, ancestors, spiritual guides, angels, and higher power are in constant communication with us, offering solace and support during challenging moments. They serve as a reminder that we are never alone, and that we are cherished and protected.

Spirit also imparts wisdom and knowledge to help us find closure, forgiveness, and healing. However, in order to clearly receive, interpret, and apply the wisdom of these messages, we must be mindful and cultivate a heightened spiritual awareness.

Messages from the other side also serve as a reminder of the continuity of existence beyond physical life. Our deceased loved ones want to assure us that we will be reunited with them in the afterlife and that there is an ongoing connection between that spirit realm and the physical world.

Sometimes spirit simply communicates with us to remind us that the spirit realm is all around us and easily accessible, and to encourage an open and spiritually aware life. Our ancestors and guides also aim to assist us in our spiritual journey and soul evolution. In some circumstances, spirit will also communicate with us as an act of divine intervention or intercession, to warn us of impending dangers or negative influences, and to help protect us from harm.

Spirit is always with you. It’s just a matter of being open to the communication ~ Sylvia Browne

There are numerous methods through which we can receive messages and guidance from the spiritual realm. The most frequently encountered forms include:

Meditation & Prayer

Quieting the mind through meditation or connecting with the divine through prayer are both powerful ways for us to receive guidance from God, Source, Spirit, the Divine. Both meditation and prayer slow down the busy, everyday mind and create a space of inner stillness and receptivity. In this state, we become more open to receiving subtle spiritual messages and guidance that would otherwise be drowned out by the noise of daily life.

Engaging in meditation and prayer allows us to open our hearts and minds, increasing our readiness to receive messages from the spirit and divine beings. Prayer serves as a direct means of communication with the divine and spirit. By directly connecting with our guides, ancestors, angels, or our higher power, we can seek guidance, protection, or insight more explicitly, thereby enabling a more direct and effective communication of messages.

This openness is usually accompanied by a sense of surrender or trust, allowing whatever messages need to come through to do so without resistance. This intentionality creates a powerful energetic alignment that facilitates communication with our higher self, spirit, and our higher power.

A regular meditation or prayer practice also cultivates a lasting sense of inner peace and clarity, making it easier to discern true spiritual messages from ego chatter or wishful thinking. This clarity is essential for understanding and integrating the messages we receive from spirit.

Dreams

Dreams have been regarded as a significant means of receiving spiritual guidance for thousands of years. They have held great importance in various religious practices and cultures as holy messages from the divine, angels, predecessors, spirit guides, and departed loved ones.

Spiritual dreams vary widely in nature and purpose. Types of dreams that commonly serve as pathways for spirit messages include spirit visitation dreams, precognitive dreams, revelatory dreams, inspirational and problem-solving dreams, warning dreams, and ancestral dreams.

Dreams occur in an altered state of consciousness that is very different from our waking state. The dream state allows for the suspension of the rational, analytical mind, making us more open to receiving spiritual messages that we might otherwise dismiss or overlook in our waking life. Without the interference of the logical mind, these messages can bypass our usual filters and skepticism, allowing them to be felt and understood more deeply.

Signs & Synchronicities

The physical realm is often influenced by the spiritual realm in inconspicuous ways in order to capture our attention through signs and synchronicities. These remarkable occurrences that happen in our daily lives serve as connections between the physical and spiritual realms, proving that they are not distinct entities but rather closely connected. They serve as reminders that divine guidance and spiritual enlightenment can be experienced through tangible and ordinary events.

Signs appear or occur in ways that are uniquely meaningful to the person experiencing them. This personal relevance makes the messages highly personalized, increasing their impact and significance. The timing of these signs and synchronicities is also uncanny, appearing just when we need them most or when we are thinking about something related.

Signs can take on various meanings, depending on their intended recipients. Examples can include encountering animals repeatedly, which are often referred to as spirit animals or totems. For instance, seeing an eagle multiple times may indicate a phase in life where one’s perspective or spiritual vision will be elevated. Discovering feathers and pennies, particularly in unexpected locations, is commonly interpreted as a sign from angels or the spiritual realm, providing solace, reassurance, or a reminder that one is not alone. Abrupt weather changes, such as a storm dissipating or a rainbow appearing, can signify transformation, hope, or the intervention of a higher power.

Synchronicities are occurrences in our lives that hold deep meaning and cannot be dismissed as mere coincidences. They often act as reliable signs, confirmations, or cautionary signals. Examples of synchronicities that people frequently encounter are:

–  Repeated numbers, names, or words
–  Serendipitous meetings or chance encounters that are transformative
–  Experiencing déjà vu
–  Receiving unexpected gifts
– Eavesdropping on a significant dialogue
– Uncovering a song, book, or movie during a pivotal moment in your life.
–  Finding lost items in unexpected places
–  Sharing simultaneous thoughts or experiences with a friend or family member

Signs and synchronicities directly intersect with our daily lives, providing guidance, affirmation, and insight in moments that might otherwise appear ordinary. These occurrences often deeply resonate with us on a personal level and create significant connections to the spiritual realm. Encountering signs and synchronicities can bring about transformation, inspiring introspection, change, and personal development. They can prompt us to challenge our preconceived notions, explore new opportunities, and embrace novel ways of living.

The significance and coincidences of signs possess the power to communicate with our intuition and soul, bypassing logical thinking and resonating with us on a profound, spiritual level. They serve as reminders of our existence within a vast and enigmatic universe, where we are guided and assisted by forces that surpass our immediate comprehension.

Channeling is a natural way to be in alignment with our soul’s purpose on Earth. It is how we connect with the Divine and all its wisdom and love ~ Sanaya Roman

Channeling

Channeling is a potent method of obtaining spiritual guidance as it entails a direct and conscious link between a human channel (or medium) and a non-physical being or higher consciousness. Through this practice, one can receive wisdom, guidance, and insight from the spirit realm, akashic records, or universal consciousness and bring it into the physical world. Channeling serves as a means of direct communication with our ancestors, spirit guides, ascended masters, or the universal mind. Such directness enables the reception of specific and often profoundly pertinent messages.

There are several forms of channeling, including psychic channeling, also known as conscious channeling, mediumship, trance channeling, direct voice channeling, automatic writing, and more. Each type of channeling serves different purposes and depends on the gifts and abilities of the psychic, medium, healer, shaman, or channeler.

Messages received through channeling often carry healing energy and offer guidance for personal growth, spiritual development, and life challenges. This provides comfort, clarity and direction to those who seek it. Channeling also provides access to universal wisdom and knowledge that transcends the channel’s personal experience. This can include insights into the nature of reality, spiritual truths, and guidance for the evolution of humanity.

Participating in channeling can result in significant personal change for both the channeler and the recipients of the messages. This practice can trigger shifts in how we view things, facilitate healing of emotional traumas, and strengthen our spiritual journey. Channeling allows us to gain empowering guidance that motivates us to make positive transformations, bringing us closer to our true calling and purpose.

Divination

The practice of divination encompasses a wide range of traditional methods and tools, including tarot and oracle cards, rune casting, pendulum, astrology, the I Ching, palmistry, tasseography, bibliomancy, and more. Each of these divination methods serves as a channel for receiving messages and guidance from the spirit realm.

At its core, divination is about seeking insight from the unseen and unknown. It is a way to actively engage with the spirit realm, or universal consciousness, to receive guidance, insight, and prophetic wisdom from our spirit guides, ancestors, the angels, or the divine. Symbols in divination act as a bridge between the conscious and unconscious mind, facilitating a deeper connection with our inner being.

Most popular divination practices have ancient origins and are steeped in the mystical traditions and ancient wisdom of cultures around the world. This historical depth adds a layer of meaning and power to the practice, connecting the individual to a lineage of spiritual seekers and practitioners across time.

Intuition is a spiritual faculty and does not explain, but simply points the way ~ Florence Scovel Shinn

Intuition

Intuition is an inherent form of inner knowing or understanding that arises without conscious thought from our higher self or soul. As spiritual beings, we have an inner guidance system that provides immediate access to insights, feelings, and knowledge beyond our logical, human understanding. This immediacy is especially helpful in situations that require quick decisions or when seeking guidance that resonates on a deep, personal level.

Our intuitive abilities are linked to a universal well of wisdom known as the collective unconscious. By accessing our intuition, we are able to tap into deeper spiritual truths that extend beyond our ordinary experiences. The guidance we receive through our intuition holds significant personal relevance and is perfectly customized to our specific life circumstances and spiritual journey. As a result, our own intuitive insights carry considerable strength and significance.

Unlike other forms of spirit messaging and communication, which may require special talents or years of skill development, intuition is an innate ability that everyone possesses to some degree. It can be cultivated and strengthened over time through practices such as meditation, mindfulness, and self-reflection, making it an accessible way to receive guidance.

Intuition offers guidance in the everyday aspects of life, from making career decisions to navigating personal relationships. It prompts us to take actions or make choices that are aligned with our higher purpose or spiritual growth. Intuition can also spark creative insights and innovative solutions to problems, connecting dots in ways that our conscious mind may not immediately see. This can feel like a sudden “download” of ideas or inspiration.

Intuitive warnings or gut feelings can serve as protective messages, steering individuals away from potential harm or unfavorable situations. This protective aspect underscores the idea that intuition is connected to a higher, caring source of guidance. Intuition often works in tandem with signs, synchronicities, dreams, and all other forms of spiritual communication, providing a sense of confirmation or affirmation from the universe. For example, an intuitive feeling may be followed by an external sign confirming that the intuition was on target.

Intuition is a powerful, direct, and deeply personal way to receive messages from the spirit world. It fosters a trusting relationship with one’s inner self and the spiritual dimensions of life, emphasizing the interconnectedness of all things and the wisdom that resides within each of us.

Various Approaches to Receiving Messages from Spirits

Across time, humans have held a fascination with the idea of communicating with the world of spirits. Whether for guidance, to connect with departed loved ones, or to gain insight into the unknown, people have sought different methods to receive messages from spirits. While skeptics may dismiss these practices as superstition, many individuals believe in their efficacy and have had profound encounters with the spiritual realm. In this article, we will explore several diverse methods that people employ to receive messages from spirits.

1. Mediumship: Mediumship stands out as one of the most well-known methods of communicating with spirits. A medium acts as a link between the physical world and the spirit world. They possess the ability to receive messages from spirits and transmit them to the living. Mediums may employ various techniques like clairvoyance (seeing spirits), clairaudience (hearing spirits), or clairsentience (feeling the presence of spirits). They may also use tools like tarot cards, crystal balls, or pendulums to enhance their connection with the spirit realm.

2. Automatic Writing: Automatic writing involves individuals allowing spirits to guide their hand as they write. By holding a pen or pencil and relaxing their mind, the person allows the spirit to take control and convey messages through their writing. This technique has been used for centuries and has yielded remarkable results for many practitioners. Some claim that automatic writing enables them to receive profound insights and guidance from the spirit world.

3. Channeling: Channeling occurs when an individual allows a spirit to speak or communicate through them. Acting as a vessel, the person permits the spirit to use their body and vocal cords to convey messages. Channeling can take the form of speaking, writing, or artistic expression. It necessitates a deep level of trust and surrender to allow the spirit to utilize one’s body and voice as a means of communication.

4. Divination Tools: Divination tools are objects or methods employed to receive messages from the spirit world. These tools are seen as bridges connecting the physical and spiritual realms. Popular divination tools include tarot cards, oracle cards, runes, pendulums, and scrying mirrors. Practitioners interpret the symbols, images, or movements of these tools to gain insight into the messages from spirits.

5. Dream Communication: Dreams have long been regarded as a potent means of receiving messages from the spirit world. Many cultures believe that dreams serve as a mode of communication for spirits with the living. Dreams can offer guidance, warnings, or even visits from deceased loved ones. Some individuals practice lucid dreaming or techniques to enhance their ability to receive messages during sleep.

6. Meditation and Prayer: Meditation and prayer are practices that enable individuals to quiet their minds and create a sacred space for spiritual connection. By entering a state of deep relaxation and focus, people can open themselves up to receiving messages from spirits. Meditation and prayer can be combined with other methods like visualization or chanting to heighten the connection with the spiritual realm.

It is important to recognize that engaging in these methods necessitates an open mind, patience, and respect for the world of spirits. While some may dismiss these practices as mere imagination or wishful thinking, many individuals have experienced profound and transformative encounters through these methods. Whether one believes in the existence of spirits or not, exploring these diverse methods can provide a unique perspective on the mysteries of life and the potential for communication beyond the physical realm.

In my profession, I frequently come across individuals going through situations that have an adverse impact on their energy field, leading to a decline in their overall physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual state of being.

Typically, these difficulties arise from negative thinking patterns or from absorbing negative energies from toxic individuals or surroundings. Often, it is a result of being connected to a toxic romantic relationship or other forms of energy attachments with family, friends, or colleagues, which deplete or contaminate one’s personal energy and liveliness.

In certain instances, though, these detrimental energy influences originate from a much more malicious source that the person affected, also known as the “carrier” or victim, is often unaware of. This destructive force adversely affects their overall well-being and creates chaos in various aspects of their life.

The problem is that many people do not understand the difference between negative energy imprints, energy cords, and evil entity or spirit attachments. In my experience, the confusion is mainly due to the fact that the effects these three categories of negative energy phenomena have on people are often similar, leading to misinterpretation of the source or cause of these influences and disturbances.

Buddha suggests that it is preferable to overcome one’s own self rather than achieving victory in numerous battles. In doing so, the triumph attained becomes truly yours, incapable of being seized by any external forces such as angels, demons, or even realms like heaven or hell.

When individuals lack a proper comprehension of the disturbance, they frequently mistakenly attribute their encountered impacts to an incorrect origin. A typical example is when individuals erroneously associate an unusual sensation with a being, whereas it is, in fact, energy residue from a previous occurrence.

Energy imprints, energy cords, and entity attachments can result in similar effects on individuals, such as exhaustion, abrupt mood shifts, inexplicable physical symptoms, and disruptions in mental well-being. Due to these overlapping symptoms, it can be challenging to differentiate between the impacts of energy imprints, cords, and entity attachments without a more comprehensive comprehension of the subtleties involved.

These phenomena are not visible or tangible to the average layperson. Their effects are mostly experienced as subjective symptoms, strange or vague feelings, and disturbing experiences, rather than as objective, visible evidence. They can also all create a sense of external presence or influence, making it difficult for the individual to discern whether they’re dealing with a sentient being (such as a spirit or entity), an energy bond, or simply the imprint of residual energies. This sensation can lead to assumptions about the nature of the attachment that may not be consistent with its actual source.

If the person who is affected doesn’t seek guidance from a spiritual or religious professional, it will be difficult for them to discern the dissimilarity. In reality, numerous people who lack spiritual awareness experience these occurrences without realizing it. This lack of recognition contributes to the bewilderment as individuals attempt to understand their emotions.

The confusion is also caused by varying spiritual and cultural backgrounds. Each belief system and faith tradition has its own understanding and viewpoints on these occurrences, resulting in differing opinions about the nature of an individual’s encounter. While one religion or spiritual belief may perceive it as entity attachment, another might view it as the impact of negative energy.

To understand and address these phenomena effectively, it is crucial to adopt a holistic approach. This involves incorporating elements such as spiritual consciousness and perception, practicing techniques to clear and purify energies, seeking guidance from trustworthy spiritual or religious mentors, and also seeking psychological or therapeutic assistance to tackle the underlying problems and associated symptoms. By comprehending the unique attributes, sources, and impacts of each attachment type, one can accurately identify and resolve the issue, and make informed decisions regarding methods for cleansing, healing, and safeguarding.

Energy Imprints

Intense emotional experiences, traumatic events, or high levels of stress and negativity result in the formation of negative energy imprints. These imprints can also manifest in physical locations where these events took place. In various settings like workplaces, homes, and public spaces, these lingering energy remnants can have a long-lasting detrimental impact, creating a consistent atmosphere of negativity and toxicity.

Energy imprints are essentially vibrational patterns of non-physical energy that carry the emotional or energetic signature of past events. Imprints are not conscious or sentient. Instead, they are like recordings or echoes of energy. They are basically like layers of energetic “dirt” or debris that can cling to a place or a person’s aura, affecting mood, energy levels, and well-being.

Negative energy imprints have the potential to impact the emotional state, energy levels, and overall health of individuals who are sensitive to them. These imprints can lead to feelings of discomfort, sorrow, or unease without a clear cause. When someone becomes attached to negative energy, they may experience a decrease in vitality, mood fluctuations, restlessness, a burdened sensation, and similar symptoms. Typically, these effects are not linked to any particular entity or presence.

Energy clearing and cleansing practices such as smudging, sound healing, Reiki, crystal, energy work, salt baths, practicing energy grounding and shielding, visualized meditations, performing space clearing, or even physical cleaning and decluttering are some of the practices used to clear these imprints from people or spaces.

Boundaries can be understood as the acknowledgment of one’s personal space. They serve as a way to assertively communicate your refusal to allow individuals who drain your energy and disrupt your inner peace into your life.

Energy Cords

Energy cords are invisible energetic bonds or connections that form between people, typically through emotional or intimate interactions. While not all energy cords that we form with others are negative or bad —  many are healthy bonds of love, friendship, and mutual support —  certain cords can indeed become negative energy attachments when they arise from or result in unhealthy, draining, or toxic relationship dynamics or transpersonal interactions.

Negative energy cords often come from relationships characterized by fear, dependency, manipulation, abuse, or unresolved conflict. These can be relationships with family members, friends, romantic partners, or even co-workers. Victims may feel that engaging with or even thinking about the person to whom they are corded drains their energy, causes emotional turmoil, or leads to feelings of anxiety or depression.

A harmful energy connection can trap an individual in old behaviors, unhealthy feelings, and harmful disputes, halting their progress in life and hindering their emotional and spiritual growth. The affected person may also experience emotional responses to the fluctuations in mood, thoughts, or behaviors of the other person involved in the connection, even without any direct communication or physical interaction.

The worst kind of unintentional energy cord one can have with a friend or family member is that of an energy vampire. Unlike the traditional bloodsucking vampires of folklore, psychic vampires and energy thieves drain the life force (or psychic energy) from others. They may do this unconsciously in some cases, affecting those around them with their negative energy.

The most extreme forms of intentional energy cord phenomena are psychic attacks, curses, and hexes. These are essentially negative energy intentionally sent or projected from one person to another. The recipient may feel overwhelmed, tired, or besieged by negative emotions. Curses and hexes are specific types of negative energy that are cast with the intention of harming or bringing misfortune to others. The effects can vary widely, from minor inconveniences to significant disruptions in the victim’s life or personal well-being.

Dealing with negative energy cords requires intentional spiritual or energetic practices aimed at cleansing, cutting, or healing these connections. Some effective practices include cord-cutting visualizations, cord-cutting ceremonies, banishing or binding rituals, prayer, Reiki, acupuncture, and other forms of energy work and spiritual healing. Seeking professional guidance and support from energy healers, spiritual counselors, or therapists trained in energy work can help you identify and sever unhealthy cords and provide both spiritual and practical support in the process. Be sure to consult only with reputable and trustworthy practitioners.

It is crucial to handle the task of managing negative energy cords with kindness and forgiveness, directed towards both yourself and the other individuals involved. Acknowledge that cutting these cords does not necessarily mean ending relationships entirely (although it may involve establishing healthier limits), but rather letting go of the toxic elements within the connection. This enables the opportunity for healing and, potentially, the evolution of the relationship into a healthier state.

Jesus had commanded him, “Depart from this man, you unclean spirit!” Afterwards, Jesus inquired, “What is your name?” The response came, “Legion is my name, for we are numerous.” (Mark 5:8-9)

Entity Attachments

Entity attachments are spirits or entities that were once human (ghosts, earthbound souls) or were never human (demons) that attach themselves to human auras for various purposes, including unresolved karmic issues, psychic vampirism, energy parasitism, or even malicious intent. Spirit entity attachments manifest in various forms and have different effects on individuals. Such attachments include hauntings, poltergeists, and demonic attachments such as incubi and succubi.

Unlike imprints, these attachments are conscious spirit entities with their own intentions and awareness. They can interact directly with the living and may actively seek to influence or control their host or environment. I simply call them the “little bad guys.”

What is the reason for spirit entities attaching themselves to individuals? It is because they exploit our energy. They thrive on negative emotions such as anger, fear, and anxiety. These entities are like energy parasites that aim to harm and ruin lives, careers, and relationships. They can dismantle families, bringing fear and misery to both the young and old, as they feed on our life force energy through suffering, despair, and destruction. Many victims remain unaware of these entity attachments. Full-blown possession cases are rare, but they do occur. Our struggles only make these malevolent entities stronger and can potentially result in their complete possession of vulnerable individuals.

It may be intriguing to learn that parasitic entities and malevolent spirits are particularly inclined to prey on individuals who are experiencing spiritual growth and coming closer to higher powers such as God, Source, the Divine, or the Light. Consider this: they have little interest in targeting hosts who are depleted energetically, spiritually corrupted, or afflicted in their soul. Instead, they prefer to interfere with those who possess abundant life force energy and personal vitality because these individuals are on a positive spiritual journey.

In my experience, the telltale sign of an entity attachment, as opposed to an energy imprint or cord, is that its negative effects are much more pronounced, disturbing, and even detrimental to the victim’s health and well-being. This may include the following signs and symptoms:

Unexplained bodily symptoms: Occasionally, sudden, intense, and unexplainable physical issues that do not improve with medical intervention may be perceived as indications of possession or obsession.

Extreme behavioral changes: Dramatic changes in personality or behavior that are out of character for the individual, especially if these changes are negative or harmful.

Voice and body language changes: Significant changes in voice, speaking and body language of a person, in a way that is unrecognizable and even shocking.

Extreme negative emotions: Exhibiting extremely negative emotional reactions such as fear, hostility, or aggression, especially toward religious practices, prayer, or attempts to discuss spiritual matters. There is also sometimes an inexplicable and strong aversion to sacred, spiritual, or religious places, objects, or symbols. This may manifest as physical discomfort, agitation, or hostility in such environments.

Harming oneself or others: Engaging in self-harming behaviors or expressing a desire to harm others that is out of character for the individual.

Extraordinary Capabilities: Abruptly exhibiting exceptionally strong physical prowess or paranormal talents that far surpass the individual’s usual capabilities. For instance, spontaneously acquiring the ability to speak or comprehend languages never before learned or encountered, or possessing knowledge of information that should be unknown, such as undisclosed personal details about others.

Unexplained occurrences: Instances of perplexing and frequently unsettling happenings in the vicinity of an individual, such as objects mysteriously relocating, peculiar sounds, or abrupt fluctuations in temperature.

It is crucial to exercise caution and discernment when considering the potential of being possessed by a spirit. In numerous instances, symptoms that may appear to be related to the supernatural or paranormal can actually be indicative of mental health issues like dissociative disorders, schizophrenia, anxiety, or depression, which necessitate the assistance of medical or psychological professionals.

If you or someone you know is going through troubling symptoms, it is advisable to address the situation comprehensively by seeking assistance from licensed healthcare providers who can offer suitable medical treatment and psychiatric aid if necessary. Additionally, consulting trustworthy spiritual or religious advisors aligned with your individual beliefs and practices can be beneficial.

How To Protect Yourself

Having a consistent spiritual routine for maintaining energetic well-being is essential in order to prevent negative energy experiences like imprints, cords, or attachments. The practice doesn’t need to be intricate or sophisticated, simply make a habit of it, ideally on a daily basis. It doesn’t matter how simple or complex your chosen practice is, what truly matters is finding what suits you as an individual.

For me, daily prayer to ask for spiritual blessing and protection works a charm because of my strong faith. Every spiritual or faith tradition has its own way of seeking healing and protection. I encourage my clients to focus on the belief system they were raised with, because it’s typically the one they’re most familiar with, and in the end, all positive spiritual practices serve the greater good. It all goes back to the center, which is God, the Light, the Source, the Divine.

Making minor adjustments to your daily routine can be sufficient to safeguard against detrimental energies. These adjustments may involve altering your music preferences, refraining from exposure to specific content through media, or avoiding the company of individuals who contribute negativity to your well-being.

You can never be too careful, because evil, like good, is always working overtime and will disguise itself in ways you can’t even begin to imagine. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that there is a constant spiritual battle going on between good and evil in our daily lives. We can see it very clearly these days as we are connected to the global community through digital technology and the Internet. Evil and negativity can work through social media, entertainment, and even our loved ones, friends, and co-workers.

There are simple social ways in which you can avoid becoming negatively attached. The first is to begin to create energetic boundaries. I have had to make some very hard choices in the past in this regard. One decision was to stop hanging out with certain people. It may not make you popular with some of your relatives or friends, but I feel that protecting your soul and spirit is so much more important than pleasing others who may be doing you a serious spiritual disservice.

Use your intuition to determine if your hosts are morally sound individuals or if they engage in inappropriate behavior. Assess whether they exhibit negative traits like pride, envy, anger, laziness, greed, lust, overindulgence, or substance abuse, as these characteristics can hinder their connection to the divine. If they appear spiritually unaware, it would be wise to either avoid them or establish boundaries using energy protection techniques, meditation, and prayer. Take any necessary steps to safeguard yourself from potential negative energies and potential associations with malevolent entities.

Regularly engage in prayer or meditation and acquire the skill to ignore negativity, as it may be malevolent influences attempting to impose their negative beliefs on you. Its goal is to instigate fear, diminish your self-worth, and introduce various negative aspects into your life. The crucial aspect is to free your mind from any pessimism; navigate through life with a calm and focused mindset; and embrace solely positive, inspiring thoughts and concepts. By doing so, you will cultivate constructive principles that will harmonize your spiritual being.

What are the distinctions between Energy Imprint, Energy Cord, and Entity Attachment?

In the realm of energy healing and spiritual practices, different terms are used to describe various types of energetic phenomena. Three commonly discussed terms are energy imprint, energy cord, and entity attachment. Although they may sound similar, each term refers to a unique concept with its own characteristics and implications. It is crucial for those interested in energy healing to understand the differences between these terms. So, let’s delve into each concept and uncover their individual attributes.

Energy Imprint:
An energy imprint refers to the residue of energy left behind in a place or object as a result of intense emotions, events, or experiences. Similar to how physical objects can retain energy traces, spaces and environments can also hold onto energy. For example, a room where a heated argument occurred might carry the energy imprint of anger or tension. Likewise, historical sites where significant events took place may have imprints of joy, sorrow, or fear.

These imprints can affect individuals who come into contact with them, often leading to emotional or physical sensations. People who are sensitive to energy may experience these imprints as a sense of heaviness, uneasiness, or sudden shifts in mood when entering such spaces. Energy healers can work with imprints by clearing and transforming stagnant or negative energies, creating a more harmonious environment.

Energy Cord:
Energy cords are energetic connections that form between individuals, usually as a result of emotional or energetic exchanges. These cords can be either positive or negative in nature. Positive cords represent healthy connections that nurture love, support, and mutual growth. For instance, a strong bond between family members or close friends often manifests as a positive energy cord.

On the other hand, negative cords arise from unhealthy relationships or situations where one person’s energy drains another’s. These cords can be formed with family members, romantic partners, colleagues, or even strangers. Negative cords may result in feelings of exhaustion, emotional manipulation, or a sense of being controlled by others. Energy healers can help identify and release these cords, enabling individuals to regain their personal power and establish healthier boundaries.

Entity Attachment:
Entity attachment refers to the presence of non-physical beings or entities that attach themselves to individuals. These entities can range from lower vibrational energies to more complex spirits or entities with their own consciousness. attachment can occur due to various reasons like trauma, negative emotions, or engaging in activities that weaken one’s energetic defenses.

Entity attachments can significantly impact an individual’s mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Symptoms may include sudden mood swings, unexplained fears or phobias, chronic fatigue, or persistent negative thoughts. Energy healers who specialize in entity release work can help identify and remove these attachments, restoring balance and harmony to the affected person.

To summarize, energy imprint, energy cord, and entity attachment are distinct energetic phenomena that can affect individuals in different ways. Energy imprints are residual energies left behind in places or objects, while energy cords are energetic connections formed between individuals. Entity attachments involve non-physical beings attaching themselves to individuals, impacting their well-being. Understanding these differences is essential for anyone interested in energy healing or exploring their own energetic experiences. By recognizing and addressing these phenomena, individuals can strive towards creating a healthier and more balanced energetic state.
