The Car Park Thing

You might know what I mean. It's a common trick taught in self help and sales manuals. When going somewhere busy, visualise driving into the perfect car park near your preferred location. I have tried it, my friends have tried it, my estate agent has tried it. It works. But what about those who aren't aware of how to manifest a car park that way? What if they need it more? Someone who doesn't know or forgets to use their car park invocation might be rushing to the doctor or whatever. Something more important than picking up a litre of milk and a packet of chips. It is important to act ethically when using spell-crafting. To visualise and claim a car park is to cast a spell. It is spelling our goal or intent into words or pictures. I like to use both. I might visualise my car in the perfect car park as well as speak the words: "Universe please provide me with the perfect car park for my visit to __________." If I were to consider others who might need that ca

Shields Up!

Image
Although I KNOW there is a permanently fixed speed detection camera on this local main street, I am driving 60kms per hour in a 50km zone. Flash! Since I am the driver whose car others are stuck behind on country roads, I don't think I deserve a fine. Despondent, I avoid the letterbox for two weeks and pray. Then a friend mentions a computer virus that has affected speed camera systems. Traffic camera violations have apparently been withdrawn. I have a chance. I carefully select a time when I'm standing at the letterbox with a friend who is leaving my house. After a chat and a laugh I feel strong enough to tackle the possibilities the letterbox might hold. I open the box to find a two week sized bunch of envelopes. I go through them one by one. Insurance (almost as bad), estate agents promotion, bank letter, etc, etc. No fine! Yippee! As my relief peaks and subsides, I recall the often repeated blessing I use for my car, 'Shields up.' I can't help but wonder h

The End of the Age of the Guru and the Rise of the Psychic Within

Image
I am giving very few psychic readings at the moment for a number of reasons both personal and professional. Professionally, I am developing a new style of reading that is more in alignment with my personal principles. A style that will not only assist clients by interpreting spiritual information, but also assist them to connect to their own personal source of intuitive guidance. Psychics Are Business People Too It's not always easy for sensitives such as psychics to make a living. Many of us are self-employed so we can adjust our hours around our sensitive natures and need for rest. Many psychics and healers who have also undergone business training have been coached to encourage repeat business from their clients. They may even have been coached to play up and dramatise certain elements of their abilities to attract business and to keep it. This marketing strategy can link people to the right practitioner, but it can also bind them. Gurus and the New Millennium There is o

How To Connect With Your Higher Self

Image
We are entering a stage of human consciousness that is very individual and requires less direction. Human development no longer depends on gurus and outside helpers. It is up to each individual to access the power of a personal authority that works in loving consideration of all.  Why do we need a higher self? Connecting to a sense of higher guidance is more important then ever as social media and TV influencers tell us what to buy and how to think. Everyone's idea is presented as the best idea ever. Advertisers promote themselves as the authority on just about everything. The consequences of our decisions are ours to carry alone. So we need to ensure we are leading our lives from a broad and considered perspective. Attuning to a higher self can increase the wisdom available for each decision made. Over time, our trust in ourselves as decision makers can grow. Where is the higher self? There is a dimension just outside of ordinary reality containing the very best versio

Candle Meditation

Meditation is as easy as breathing. Many people feel they cannot meditate, but by keeping things really simple, I believe anyone can meditate. There are a huge range of meditation practises suitable for different purposes. If meditation has been difficult in the past it may mean that the style wasn't suitable for you. Meditation is suitable for anyone if the style is a good match. This article will introduce two styles. Although simple, they are both potent meditations, the first for practise in mindfulness and the second meditation to promote visionary ability. How Can Meditation Help? Rather than being a practise for monks and yogis of times gone by, meditation is more important than ever. Human consciousness is increasingly stressed and challenged by rapid change in the way we live our daily lives. In the past it took time to satisfy our curiosities as we reached into the world toward limited options. In the present we are bombarded by information every day from a variety o

Communing with Crystals, Programming and Attunement

Image
To commune with an entity is to communicate with it. Crystals are more than just tools directed by humans. Crystals, like any element of nature, contain the spirits of energetic beings. It is helpful to consult with these beings prior to using your crystal for healing and energy work. Crystals have different personalities suited to different purposes. Rainbow Obsidian Determine Your Intent  Do you wish to use your crystal for aura clearing and charging?  Do you require extra protection from negative influences?  Are you using your crystal to create a crystal grid? Are you consecrating a jewellery piece for everyday wear?  All of these situations may require different crystals. For example, I use a large clear quartz point as big as a potato for my aura clearing and charging work. I use a small selenite wand to cast circles of protection around home and workspace. For dispelling negative energy I hold a rainbow obsidian sphere. For creating crystal grids around spaces I li
