ASTRAL TRAVEL
Engaging in astral travel or astral projection basically means becoming ultra-self-aware, so that your astral body can separate from your physical one. The result: you’ll be able to explore other physical and astral realms. However, this takes practice. Here are some steps that can help you towards this goal. Do not eat right before bed, no late night snacking. You want to have an empty stomach to give you a lightness. This helps with lucid dreaming and Astral Travel. Concentrate on your breathing, focusing on breathing slowly and deeply. When other thoughts intrude, bring your focus back to your breath, the feeling of oxygen entering your nose, windpipe and lungs, and the sound of your breathing as you inhale and exhale. This relaxed breathing will allow you to eventually feel a bit odd, like your physical body is disconnected from your mind. That’s what you’re going for. You may even feel like your physical body no longer exists. Allow this feeling to occur without getting anxious. Once this happens, you may feel your body begin to vibrate. Focus on this, allowing it to occur without becoming stressed out by this sensation. Let the vibrating sensation fill your mind so that nothing else exists. Don’t analyze the sensation. Try to remain still rather than fidgeting or getting up from your relaxed sitting or reclining position. Imagine that you are moving around even though you are not. That can mean, for example, visualizing that your hand is closing and opening while you continue your relaxed breathing. Your eyes are closed but in your mind, you should strive to clearly see your hand and its movement. Try visualizing a string hanging over your head and your hand attached to your astral body reaching to grab this. When you’re able to do this, feel your astral body stand up. Perhaps try to walk over to a bookcase to explore a title that you hadn’t thought about in a while, or examine a neglected object on a table. Once you’ve done this, think that you are back in your physical body. Once you’re back in your physical body, verify if you read the correct book title or if you can identify features of the object you saw with your astral body. The more you practice this the better you will get. It’s quite interesting. Tap into Your Psychic Self - Your Spiritual Journey
I bet you never thought you could possibly have psychic abilities. Maybe you thought it’s something you either have or you don’t; something that you’re born with; that you had long known you had since you were fairly young. Or maybe you thought that psychic people have to rely on tarot cards, crystals, pendulums, reading tea leaves or crystal balls. In fact, that is so far from the truth. Everyone has the ability to be psychic, even though you don’t realize it. What you need to do is develop it so that you’re able to connect with your intuitive self, something that will allow your psychic side to come to and let you know with out a doubt, ‘I am here! Listen to me’. Here are some things you can do to boost and strengthen your connection with your intuition. Practice mindfulness meditation. In other words, be in the moment, acutely aware of your surroundings. For example, if you’re in a park or even a bar or restaurant, be attentive to the colors, sounds, textures and everything else around you. Do this frequently during the week. And eventually, you’ll be able to pick up even ever so slight changes in the energy of your environment. Find the energy field of objects. This is referred to as psychometry. You can start with a small piece of metal jewelry, for example. Sit in a quiet place with the object in the palm of your hand. Then, with your eyes closed, take slow deep breaths. You may feel a slight tingling in your hands. Pay attention to any pictures in your mind write it down. Focus on sensations or smells that come up. Do you smell smoke with this object? Maybe the owner was a cigar or cigarette smoker. Focusing in on what your intuitive side is telling you. Here is a great way to practice, Psychic Medium go to antique stores and pick up objects and see what I see and feel. It’s very interesting. Get in touch with your Spirit Guides. You can do this by meditating in a quiet place where you can sit uninterrupted in a position that you find comfortable, but always be in alignment. Ask to connect with your Guide or Guides who will assist you in your intuitive growth, visualize the appearance of your guide. Ask your Guide to let you know they are with you, I have always felt a soft touch on my face when a Guide is near. You may smell them or feel a tug on your hair, it is a personal thing. What is the guide’s name? As you concentrate on this, ask yourself what personality does your guide have? Once you first connect with your guide, it will be easier to do so again. Your guide is there to answer your questions and help you on your spiritual journey. To assist in your connection, you might want to pick out an object that you’ll focus on and that may act as a stimulus for connecting with your guide. Connecting with your guides is always a very comforting, secure and peaceful feeling, you will start to look forward to your meditations. Many Blessings on your Spiritual Journey✨ Discovering Cartomancy
If you’re new to Tarot cards, discovering that there are also Lenormand and Oracle decks may make it all way too confusing. Here’s what you need to know to distinguish these three different decks. You may already know that Tarot contains 78 cards, and this deck is divided into 22 symbolic images, which carry myriad meanings, and 56 cards grouped into four suits: Pentacles, Cups, Wands and Swords. When using these cards to address a person’s life story, one needs to not just study the cards but also interpret them. Because Tarot requires study, there is a greater sense of rigidity to them compared with Oracle and Lenormand cards. Some people, however, may be unnecessarily put off by Tarot, which is such a large deck, where each card has a meaning that must be studied. A Lenormand deck consists of three dozen cards that are less open to interpretation compared with Tarot. Rather, the meanings of Lenormand cards are more succinct, straightforward and easy to use. The cards carry symbols that can, when strung together, form a basic meaning and paint a vivid picture. This deck, in essence, is much less about spiritual aims — as Tarot is — and more about practicality. Whatever symbols come up in the spread, it’s up to the reader to interpret the meaning based on the context. So, for example, the Anchor can mean not able to adapt to a situation or it could refer to a sense of stability. It depends on the context of the reading. Oracle decks are perhaps the most popular of the three forms of cartomancy, because, among the reasons, they don’t require study and are, therefore, more accessible. Also, each of the cards comes with keywords that can make it easier for newbies to use. There is no set number of cards in a deck: there could be just a dozen cards or some ten dozen or anything in between. Oracle is quite flexible and fluid, whereby each deck is different from the other in terms of its themes and art and, therefore, the system and vocabulary of the deck. Its Scorpio Season! ~ October 23 to November 22
It is no coincidence that Scorpio Season falls this time of year, the time of transitioning. Starting with Halloween and going into the dark days of fall and winter. I am not saying that Scorpios are some dark creepy figure, but, we are one of the most mysterious signs in the zodiac. To me, Halloween represents the Scorpion perfectly, we tend to not reveal a lot about ourselves (mask) until we trust the other person completely. Only then will we shed our ‘mask/shield’ transitioning and showing our softer and trusting side. Although they seem aloof on the outside the Scorpio personality may be a bit possessive and jealous, this may be the darker side of the Scorpio. The flip side of this is we are fiercely loyal, and demand our partner be the same. We are also quite protective of our clan. If you are lucky enough to have a Scorpio as a friend we will defend you till the end. However, if you deceive or manipulate us we will find a way to destroy you. This is the Scorpion in us, we sting. Scorpios are one of the most intuitive of the zodiac, some famous Scorpios are the billionaire Bill Gates, could this be because he followed his intuition regarding business decisions. Also, Picasso! A gifted artist, could this gift have come from his intuitive side? Scorpios make great detectives because of this trait. We are resilient, it’s not easy to break a Scorpio. We are a very ambitious lot! We simply do not give up on something we have a passion or a love for. Passion is everything to us Scorpions. We are considered the most passionate of the zodiac. The Scorpio is known to inspire others. We have a genuine interest and compassion for all living things. We have the ability to think outside the box, thus, inspiring and transforming those we love and are close to. It goes back to The Season of The Scorpio and Transformation. Can past life regression help me?
If you’ve been plagued by health problems, such as fatigue or pain, that don’t seem to have a cause, a sense of anxiety, or you have fears or phobias, perhaps past life regression may be something to look into. Past life regression, which may also be referred to as regression therapy, is a technique that relies on hypnosis to help you get in touch with memories of your past life or lives. This does not necessarily require remembering events that happened in childhood, since that may not be the cause of your issues. Rather, it’s coming to terms with traumas that occurred in another life, traumas that are still causing you angst because you have not come to terms with these hurtful events. By understanding these events, you’ll also be in a better position to accept yourself rather than behaving judgmentally to your own behaviors, something that only accentuates pain and trauma. Furthermore, by getting in touch with these past traumas, you’ll also be able to understand that death is nothing to fear, that, rather, it’s simply part of a cycle. In order to prepare for past life regression, you’ll first close your eyes, sit quietly and perhaps do some slow, deep breathing, which will help you get into a relaxed state. The practitioner will speak soothingly, perhaps vividly describing a pleasant scene. The practitioner will prompt and encourage you to describe feelings, emotions, sensations and thoughts that arise. You should be as specific as possible in your descriptions. Your practitioner will act as your guide as you explore whatever territory comes up, whether pleasant, troublesome or frightening, as you are guided through one or more events in your past life. In essence, you’ll be re experiencing the event in this process and tapping into your subconscious. As a result, your practitioner will help you identify your emotions as isolated from the event. Then, the next stage is to learn how to determine a different way to see the event, stripping it of the emotions that had long troubled you and which may have resulted in your physical or psychological ills. The idea is that this technique can bolster your ability to adapt to situations, becoming more resilient to whatever troubles may cross your path. Many cultures around the world have documented psychic abilities. People with psychic abilities are able to see beyond the physical realm and into the spiritual one. They can help others with learning about their past, present and future. There are many different psychic abilities. Some psychics have the ability to perceive information through their sixth sense.
There are six different types of psychic senses known as the “clairs.” Clairvoyance means clear seeing and it is possible to see things like animals, people or objects that are not present physically. This sight may occur as a clairvoyant’s normal state of vision. Clairaudience means clear hearing and it is defined by being able to hear the thoughts or voices of spirits. The sounds heard may be voices but may also be the sounds of nature or music as well. Clairsentience means clear sensing and it is defined by the ability to feel the impression a spirit wishes to communicate. Psychics with this ability could meet a total stranger and know things about them. Clairalience means clear smelling and this allows the psychic to gain information through smell. Clairgustance enables a person to taste something that is connected to the spirit they have channeled. Claircognizance means a clear knowing despite there being no way of knowing something is true. This is considered to be a hunch or gut feeling that is never wrong. Every living thing emits an aura (bio-plasma field) and psychics are able to see the person’s energy radiating into this field. Each aura is unique and has been proven by Kirlian photography. Astral projection refers to out of body experiences. Your astral body is able to travel throughout the universe while outside your physical body. Since it is difficult to prove the existence of a soul, astral projection is considered to be a pseudoscience. Psychography is when individuals create written documents while not being conscious of actually writing. These words come from the subconscious. Channeling is when a person can communicate with the deceased. Mediums may allow spirits to take over their bodies to allow them to communicate with people in the physical world. People seek out mediums to have closure after a loved one passes. Divination is used to gain insight into a situation. Diviners suggest how to act by interpreting signs or omens. There are many different tools that a psychic may use to interpret these signs. Energy healing stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal. There are many different forms of energy healing including crystal healing, acupuncture, Qigong, Reiki and Tai Chi. There are many benefits to these alternative treatments but do not completely abandon your doctor. Precognition is the ability to see events taking place in the future. It can present itself in dreams, waking visions, flashes of thought or simply a feeling of knowing. These visions may seem random and are difficult to control. Psychometry is the ability to get an impression of someone from an object that he or she uses daily because it becomes infused with our spiritual energy. By touching these objects, a psychic might get impressions of feelings, words, or colors from the last person who wore it. Remote viewing allows the psychic to gain information about a person, place or event happening in a distant place. It is a learned skill and most people cannot see a clear picture but the information comes in as bursts that the viewers pieces together. Retrocognition refers to the ability to infer knowledge of past events that cannot be learned. It mostly occurs in dreams and waking visions. Scrying is the practice of interpreting a message by looking into a crystal or a mirror to receive guidance, revelation or prophecy. Fortune tellers, clairvoyants and diviners mostly use scrying. Telekinesis is the ability to move physical objects without physically interacting with them. There have been many subtle instances of telekinesis like influencing the numbers on a dice roll or which side the coin lands on. Telepathy is when one person imparts knowledge to another through psychic means. One person may have the power to put thoughts into someone else’s head from a distance. This ability may also be used to read someone’s mind. Hopefully this guide helps you to explore your psychic ability and to learn something new. There are so many types of psychic powers and a lot to explore. Do you believe in reincarnation? Past life therapy is the process of unearthing old memories stored in your soul from a previous lifetime. The biggest revelation is you lose your fear of death. This occurs during the process of past life therapy because the client is in a state of deep relaxation and starts receiving images from their former life. The process continues for all the major events of their past life until they reach the death experience and right around this time, the people move into this very peaceful, pain-free and love-filled space. This space is where there is no physical form but only awareness. By experiencing this overall safe and comforting place, diminishes concerns about death and dying. It is really pretty fascinating.
It is common to be afraid of death but seeing how your former self died and learning that death may be peaceful brings a certain level of comfort. However, if your fear is deeper than a general fear of the unknown, then past life therapy might not help. If you have intense fears about dying, you should see a therapist, who specializes in anxiety. Fear of death can consume your thoughts and ruin your quality of life. Do not sign up for past life therapy if you are looking to overcome a death phobia. Past life therapy is beneficial if you want to see how your soul may have transferred from one body to another. If you are spiritual and believe that death has a spiritual element to it, then you will come away from past life therapy with a good sense about what occurs when we pass. What if? It’s amazing how those two words can cause so much distress to our peace of mind. This world is full to the brim with what-ifs and uncertainties, so it is only natural that people find themselves looking to psychics and mediums such as myself for guidance and answers. Most often I find that my clients are searching for clues and reassurance about their relationships with family, friends and romantic partners. Below I have listed the six relationship questions I am asked most commonly. 1. Will I meet my soulmate? This is the No. 1 relationship-related question my clients ask me; whether the person is single and searching for love or in a relationship but questioning if they’re with the right person. If you’re in an unsatisfying or unhealthy relationship it is only normal to find yourself questioning its quality. An unsatisfying partnership can leave you feeling alone in the world and worrisome that you may never find the happiness in a relationship you see everyone around you is receiving. This is where I come in. As a psychic and passionate practitioner of cartomancy, I have the ability to give guidance in the who, what and where of any romance question you may have. 2. Is my spouse cheating on me? The American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy estimates that 25 percent of men and 15 percent of women in long-term relationships have cheated on their partner by having sex with someone else. If emotional affairs are factored in, those percentiles are even higher. With this in mind, it comes as no surprise to me that people come seeking help to alleviate their fears or confirm their suspicions. So that my clients can get the most out their readings I usually request that they do their best to try to be patient and let the cards reveal the answers they seek. I am opposed to clients explaining what is going on in their relationship. This is to ensure that the information I am receiving is coming from an intuitive source rather than just my analytical mind. 3. Will my affair partner leave their spouse for me? Some may find this question a little risque, but I never judge nor criticize my clients. Sometimes we fall in love at inopportune times and I hold no right to decide if that is right or wrong. I believe that we all have our own journey that is meant to teach us and help our souls grow in awareness and love. Keeping that in mind, I know that is only my job to guide with intuition not to judge. 4. How can I get this person to like to love me back? I find that many of my single clients feel that is hard dating in today's world. Getting ghosted has become all too common, and more and more people are having to face the pain of unrequited love. The truth is I can’t answer this question. True love is not forced into reciprocation. It may be that you’re just not asking the right question. You see I believe that we accept the love we think we deserve, and if the love you’re accepting and chasing is one-sided I feel that is what we should be exploring. 5. Is my divorce or breakup a failure at love? I don’t need to reference my cards to answer this question, it’s no. A breakup or a divorce is actually proof of the opposite. The ending to a long term relationship can feel as though you’ve wasted precious time, but it’s actually a signal that this partnership has fulfilled the role it was meant to play in your life. Leaving that relationship is actually a huge victory for your soul’s path, it means your soul has completed its lesson. For example, for people who leave abusive marriages or relationships, the lesson is often valuing their own life energy and light so deeply that they have the strength to leave the situation. During a breakup, it is important to focus on what you gained from the relationship instead of thinking of it as an overall loss. 6. Can I fix an unresolved issue with a loved one who has died? Many of my clients are seeking a connection to their loved ones on the other side. They may feel that there are unresolved issues of resentment or regret that they worry will have no resolution now that their loved one has passed. When we pass we see a sort of movie of our lives through our eyes but also the eyes of everyone around us. We gain a deeper understanding of any wrongs we have done. So, if you feel there is someone who has passed that may have hurt you take comfort in knowing they now understand the pain they caused and are seeking forgiveness. Relationships don’t end at death. Death should be viewed as a doorway, not a boundary or ending. Maybe you’re looking for Mr. or Mrs. Right. Maybe you’re feeling stuck in an unhealthy relationship or feel anxious your partner isn’t loyal. Maybe a loved one has passed before they got to say I’m sorry. Relationships of every type can be challenging, but it is important to remember the situations they create are meant to help our souls grow through lessons and in love. Love is a word that encompasses so much. Love is patience, kindness, empathy, forgiveness, trust, selflessness, faith, and strength. Try to take a step back and look at your relationship status and see what lessons are lying there in wait. My entire life I have had a close connection to the Divine, and when I turned fourteen I discovered a tool that could help me refine and focus my gifts. This tool was cartomancy, a form of divination that gives insight into the varied situations we face in our daily lives. There are many types of cartomancy, but Lenormand Cards are my personal preference. In this article, I’m going to share some of the knowledge I have acquired over the years and give you a beginners introduction to reading Lenormand Cards. What are Lenormand Cards? The history of cartomancy spans over a period of six centuries and has been around as long as playing cards have existed. I find that most people are more familiar with Tarot cards, but Lenormand cards have been used as a form of divination just as long. Lenormand is a 200-year-old system, originating from the center of Europe, that consists of 36 cards. The cards are made of simple, straightforward images that are used to explain literal not psychological issues. Madame Lenormand and the History of Lenormand Cards The cards were created in the late 18th century, and many of their symbols were inspired by those commonly found in coffee ground readings. The oldest surviving deck is on exhibit in the British Museum in London and is from 1799 or 1800. Originally Lenormand cards were just a parlor game called “The Game of Hope.” However, as years passed the images on the cards showed themselves fitting for more mystical purposes. It wasn’t until the mid-19th century, after Madame Lenormand’s death that the cards began to bear her name. It is rumored, and to my belief, that she had a custom set of the same exact cards that are used today, which were her own adaption of the deck. Madame Lenormand was the most celebrated psychic of her time and had associations with honorable figures such as Robespierre, Marat (both French revolutionaries), Empress Josephine (the wife of Napoleon Bonaparte) and Tsar Alexander I of Russia. After her death, the Lenormand cards rose in popularity amongst the occult circles of continental Europe. Over the next century and a half, the intrigue and love for the deck spread to the Low Countries, Central Europe, the Balkans, Russia, and even Brazil. During this period the English-speaking world was engrossed with Tarot, it wasn’t until the 21st century that the Lenormand deck would find its place in the occult circles of this world. Lenormand Cards and Their Uses The Lenormand cards provide another way of understanding the complexities of your own mind - helping you strategically plan out possible courses and actions that you can take. I am a strong believer in ‘we all have answers inside of us’ sometimes we just need guidance along the path to finding them. Lenormand cards show you the clear path while the card reader guides you along the route they present. The path is shown through simple yet effective universal symbols that the reader pulls together as if they were beads on a string. The meanings within the Lenormand cards reveal themselves as if they were a story meant to be narrated by the card reader. Whether you choose to interpret just two cards or spread out a full Grand Tableau utilizing the entire deck, you can use Lenormand as a tool for self-development and spiritual discovery. Through my readings, I can make the answers to your questions about your relationships, career, family matters and almost anything clear. I believe that this clarity the Lenormand deck enables me to give to you will allow you to trust your own intuition and make real, everyday decisions with confidence. That is the true power of the Lenormand deck and why it is my cartomancy of choice, it is a frank way of tackling your real-life issues with astonishing accuracy. Each and everyone one of us has a direct connection to the divine. The strength and depth of that connection may vary from person to person, but this connection gives all of us the ability to tap into a higher power for insight. You may find this hard to believe, but after reviewing the four signs I’ve listed below you may discover a few unexpected qualities that could mean you have latent psychic abilities. Sign #1: Relaxing in nature makes you more insightful Have you ever suddenly “seen” the solution to a conflict in your life when you have completely relaxed and silenced your mind? Maybe this happened to you during a long night drive, during a shower, while meditating or doing yoga. Studies have shown that meditation and yoga actually change our brain-wave activity; causing our frontal lobe to silence, and in my opinion, allowing your latent psychic abilities to temporarily surface. So let's say your sitting in a park on a beautiful day relaxing within about a 90-minute period, and suddenly you just seem to “know” accurate details about people without any prior knowledge. This is a powerful indication that you may be psychic. In the past, you may have found this easily dismissible by telling yourself you were just over-emotional, but trust in your insight and don’t push away the signs of your gift. Sign #2: You meet new people and associate them with a color Psychics interpret people differently. This is usually because they have synesthesia, a condition characterized by a swapping of the senses. Have you ever met someone new and instantly associated them with a color, flower, or even a landscape? Have you ever heard musical notes faintly surrounding someone? These flashes of sensory perception are completely internal and very clear. Unfortunately, most people don’t discuss these perceptions out of fear of judgment. If you are experiencing synesthesia embrace it. It is a special tool that can be used to understand the world around you in a more insightful way. For example, if when meeting someone you see the color blue; this is a sign that they are a natural healer, but if you see red then this person is most likely experiencing stress and may be short-tempered. Do your best to notice this information and use it as a compass to help guide you in your interactions. Sign #3: Your gut has saved you in some way Perhaps you’ve been driving and suddenly felt a strong urge to avoid a certain route home… only to find out later that there had been a horrible accident on the route you were planning on taking. Most if not all of us have these intuitive pulls. But for a psychic these pulls are even stronger; It feels as if a magnet is pulling you toward or away something so intensely that it’s impossible to ignore. This pull is usually paired with a clear sense of knowing. Again, embrace these magnetic pulls when you feel them. I’ve known people who’s lives were saved by a gut feeling that urged them to avoid a certain action they intended to take, and I’ve met people who reconnected with long lost friends by an intuitive pull nudging them to have dinner at a specific restaurant. You never know what gift is awaiting you on the other end of an intuitive pull. Sign #4: Your dreams appear in your daily life in surprising ways Have you ever had a dream in which a deceased loved one spoke to you and disclosed the location of an important document you were searching for? Or maybe you were at work and had a flash image, in a “daydream,” of your co-workers congratulating you while you held a trophy - to find out moments later that you are receiving a promotion? You may have tried to dismiss these experiences but they continue to happen. I have found that people get frightened by their dreams that include these so-called coincidences. These premonitions or “meaningful coincidences” are signs to you that you are psychically in tune with the universe. If you are experiencing any of the four gifts listed above don’t fight them or ignore them. They are amazing gifts given to you by Spirit to help you engage deeper with the people around you, and potentially even warn you of danger ahead. I see being psychic as further validation that we are all connected and spiritually intertwined with one another. |
