How Not To Manifest-repost

I was going through my blog posts to put together for a writing portfolio, and I came across my favorite post on manifesting. It still works, or, um, doesn’t work today.

1. Obsess over what you don’t have. This is very important for not manifesting what you want.
2. Freak out completely over what is missing.
3. Begin to deteriorate emotionally and question if your Guides give a flying monkey or not if you eat, or have gas money, or what you need. Don’t trust at all. And absolutely, don’t, under any circumstances, remind yourself of times when your Guides and the Universe came through for you. This may be the time they don’t.
4. Feel resentment because what you need isn’t coming from the sources you think it should. Resent everyone. It’s probably their fault.
5. Don’t allow yourself to play, relax, or enjoy anything, because after all, you need to only focus on creating what you need. This is the responsible way to do things.
6. Be extra hard on yourself for not manifesting what you need. Tell yourself you are flawed in some way or that no one cares about you.
7. Force yourself to do things you hate, or that you should do, to get what you want.
8. Obsess some more. Obsessing is always a good thing to show the Universe how much you really care.
9. And finally, and this is very important, take all of this very, very seriously.

the white unicorn

(Butterfly doctor by Ronni a. Hall)

Yesterday, at Adrienne’s Fairy and Angel chat on Ning, we met a unicorn. It was a powerful invocation led by Adrienne which led me face to face with a white horse with horn. The unicorn’s message was that my heart was blocked and that most of my Guides have been working overtime to reopen that space in my chest!

It’s been a very tough summer. Our RAD teen has been at cross-purposes with our goals to be a happy family. She really only wants control, not love, at this time. The mostly sweet little girl is replaced by something foreign and her actions and words have done a number on us.  So, meeting this unicorn with this message seemed timely and true.

This morning I woke from a dream visit with my Mom. She reminded me to take care of my inner child, the one who has been bullied and ignored through most of the summer.

I had a special Mom. She often gave me small presents that my inner child loves, well up until I was older and grown and in my 30s. I tried to parent my daughter the same way giving her gifts and toys for special occasions. With her therapists lately she complains how the bag of clothes I gave her were not good enough and I should know what she likes, or the book I tried to give her (Sark) I thought she’d like, was me forcing her to read something. (RAD teens hate to be nurtured or parented unless they feel in control). What really hurt was when most of her “stuff” I gave her through those years were put into the yard sale we had.

I had to think…was I also rejecting my own inner parenting to myself? Was I telling myself what I was doing wasn’t enough? What I was giving not enough? Was I even spending time with my inner child? Who, unlike my daughter, would actually appreciate and enjoy it?

I think the white unicorn represents our inner child’s power and glory.  When we deny it and act too adult, we lose our power. We lose our special light inside.

Go embrace your inner unicorn! Seek out the fun part of you. The one that loves stickers and tiny toys. It’s the place to start for the wounded heart.

Crazy energy report and slow time of year

Okay, the energies have been wild lately! If you are sensitive, you are feeling it. I’ve had a bug lately and because of the fever, I was so ungrounded and seeing the energies. it was coming off of everything! There’s been lots of spirit contact,  lots of changes, and lots of Guides hanging nearby (opposite of what Emerging Angels has reported). My Guides have been near as well as, many clients’ Guides lending a hand. The energy is building for big changes and new doors opening that are about to happen. It’s been busy! It may be Mercury Retrograde, but it’s also a weird time of year..August/September.

Funny story…one year many moons ago, I saw a career counselor at the college I often take enrichment classes at in desperation and frustration.  We went over my Myers Brigg and decided I was an INFJ. I told her I was so tired of my work at the time and I wanted a change. I mentioned how I wanted to create books and art.

Switch to the next year. I went to same career counselor. Bitched about the same things. She told, “Do you realize you showed up here the exact time of year as last time?” Apparently, the August/September slump time affects me greatly. I worry about paying the basics and if this is what I should be doing…blah blah blah. Come October, things really pick up and I shut up again until January slump.

I tell this to myself after massive marketing and publicity and still just coming out of slow times. Apparently, there is a rhythm to life we can’t avoid. Perhaps each year I am one step more ahead. Or maybe I need to ask for more.

The meaning of poison?

Emma Lou, our basset hound, ate a bottle of chewable glucosamine yesterday. After the panic, and quick calls to the doctor, we were told she would probably be very bloated and gassy, but she’d be fine. Can you imagine? After eating a bottle? Thank goodness!

Here’s the weird part…and there is always a weird part with my life. The day before Jessica was home from school from eating four peppers from a classmate. She got sick from eating them and ending up in the nurse’s office.

Big coincidence. The next morning I dreamt about Emma being poisoned by a vampire, sick, but okay.

The vet said on the phone that eating too much of glucosamine, a relatively safe supplement, may upset Emma’s blood sugar temporarily. Blood, vampire. Hmmm.

Being the spiritually-minded person that I am, I always look for the big picture or message here. Was the dream a premonition–that which was going to happen? Or, what was planned? What was I taking in that was poisoning me, even if temporarily. What do you think?

Psychic vs. scientist

I am slowly learning:

• I question myself when around someone who is more of a “scientist” and is unbelieving. One of Foxy’s vets looks at me like I am crazy when I tell her what Foxy is feeling or what I “get”. She took xrays of Foxy’s back and showed places where she had problems. She said, “She may or may not have any pain.” I said, “Yes, she has pain. I told you that. Several times. In those exact places.” She just ignored me. The woman only looks at the numbers and doesn’t seem to have the intuition or feeling to see what is happening. Being an empathic/intuitive person, I can’t even understand this. I was furious she would question my abilities or expertise of ten years when I don’t hers. It’s out and out disrespectful! And worse, around that energy,  I begin to question myself.
• Perhaps, she is mirroring my own doubts. My Guides had given me advice about Foxy’s health I questioned because I didn’t see results in front of me. I had to act on blind faith and I haven’t been able to do that. Perhaps I too, am the scientist.
• Trusting even though situations may look bad or hopeless: I remember when we were selling our house a few years back when the market just started to go downhill. At the time, I was getting advice from our departed dog of all things. Talk about faith. But, I wholeheartedly trusted  Lucy and I felt her spirit, and heard her. Lucy said we’d find that buyer and said when- March. There was a bit of a snag. A realtor came in March bringing an interested client and the client fell through–couldn’t get financing! We were then approached by a shady couple to buy our house cheaply. Was this the buyer? This couple felt so horrible, I had a migraine after talking to them. We decided to go with faith, said no, and decided to wait it out. Glad we did. Only two days later, that nice realtor came by again with our buyer. That buyer who picked out our house from a huge list of houses unseen and said, “That one.” What if I hadn’t trusted? I’d have missed the miracle.
• We do need that balance: science balanced with intuition. If I treated Foxy for her kidneys with just faith, I don’t know if I’d see results. We still need the medications for support and the fluids. There is a role for each. I know if I had bacterial pneumonia I sure as hell would want some antibiotics and not just hands-on-healing to wipe it out.  I’d need both. Getting information that is happening is needed from the animals and Guides and then the vet/doctor can come in and do support. We can use natural support–plants, etc., but we still need that. I guess, it’s all balance.
• We are not just test results. You need the full story on all levels what is occuring to a person or animal. Too unbalanced a view doesn’t give the whole picture.

Care of Sensitive excerpt

It’s Friday and time for my new feature: a Fairy School online class excerpt. Big sale right now if you sign up now and start later in January.

From the Care of the Sensitive class, Lesson 5 on Filtering:

Lesson Five.

Filtering

In a prior lesson, we learned from the Fairies about what to do when there is too much energy—emotional, psychic or creative– coming through us. Now we learn about filtering out the energies in our environment we don’t need before they come through us.

As a psychic and sensitive person, the more open you are, the more energies can come in from the environment! And, as you expand, your abilities increase, so, the more “garbage” from others and the environment can be picked up.

The Fairies have taught me the power of filtering! Here’s a sampling of my notes taken while talking with my Fairy Guides:

The Fairies: “You have a big psychic antennae! You pick up on visiting energies and transmissions. The mind is like a computer. It picks up the subtle and the not so subtle, all the incoming facts and stimuli, and breaks it down so you can comprehend. Your psychic antennae is receiving the impressions of the subtle, energetic world and this physical dimension at the same time and it is overwhelming.”
The Fairies: “Learn categorizing–how to sift through incoming information to determine what is negative or unnecessary, from what you need.”

How do we filter? You may have been told to put up a shield of light in your mind’s eye to protect you and filter out what you don’t need. Sometimes you need more protection. The sensitive need exta protection. It is not a weakness. If you tend to burn easily from the sun, you require a higher SPF sunscreen for protection. If your body chills easily, you need to wear an extra sweater for warmth. Essences, Nature & vibrational tools provide that extra protection.

CONTINUED IN LESSON 5.

Headaches and Psychics

Yesterday I had the worst headache. I was able to get rid of it by taking a nap and a dose of Tylenol, but I had a doozy of a time figuring it out what caused it until I had some time to do some healing on my head. Here’s reasons why if you are psychic or sensitive, you may have a headache:

• 1. You’re tired. This was the simplest reason for me. I needed to rest.
• 2. Hormones shifting. That’s for you ladies out there. And even vibrations are shifting (a whole other topic).
  
• 3. My head will ache in my psychic spot if there’s negativity around me in some form.
  
• 4. Sometimes your head aches when there’s a spirit around of a lower or different vibration. I’ve been to “haunted” places and boy, it felt like my head would come off in some.
• 5. Stuck emotions–your own. I was upset yesterday and tried to hold it all in. Boy, can you get a doozy of a headache holding back the stream.
• 6. Stuck emotions–others. If you are empathic, you can take on others’ stuck emotions–the ones they aren’t expressing–and carry it. Ouch. Important to differentiate if it is yours or not. Ask that whatever isn’t yours leaves, and if you feel better, you have evidence.
• 7. For you hypochondriacs–brain tumor. Just don’t go there.  If it’s really bad headache, we’re talking huge, then go there.
• 8. Too much energy in the head–this happens to me often. Best way to take care of this? Ground it out somehow. Go do yoga, hold your feet, walk, take a flower essence, and get out of your head. Doing more head work, or worrying more, makes it worse.
• 9. And last but not least, what did you eat? I had sugar on low blood sugar. Whoops. Ouch. But it tasted really good.
  

So there you have it. The good thing about being a blogger and a teacher, is that even having a headache is good source material.

Empaths tend to….

As an empathic or sensitive person, I’ve noticed we, as a group, tend to have in common:

1. Since we feel what everyone is feeling most of the time, when there is so much emotional turmoil around us, we may focus on trying to “make it all better” sometimes, so we feel better and the environment in harmony again! Obviously, this isn’t always reasonable or right. We need to remind ourselves that others are on their own journey and we can’t learn for them. Part of their journey may involve suffering. This can be very difficult to witness.
2. Our bodies may be very somatic. What that means is our bodies may react to our emotions and our environment, whereas, our less sensitive friends hold it all in and ignore it. The body is a fabulous intuitive tool that we need to utilize. By tuning in to the effected areas, many times we can hear what truly bothers us.
3. We have issues with overresponsibility. See #1.
4. We overwhelm if we don’t clear out our environment and other people’s stuff at the end of the day. I see this as catching a bad cold. We can have feelings that aren’t even our own if we don’t do some housecleaning! This is a bit hard if you don’t catch it early. We need our own version of psychic zinc! And if you are tired or upset, BAM, instant other people’s stuff velcro.
5. We have really big hearts that need a little more extra protection in the world. There’s a reason we do, to maybe help just one other person or animal in this world.
6. We feel everything strongly. We live at a much deeper level. Some folks will never experience life the way we do. It’s as if we get to watch life with the subtitles!

Are you playing too small and a lesson in telepathy

The other day I learned important lessons in Yoga class.

In the advanced animal communication class that I am teaching, we’ve been discussing animals mirroring our problems or issues so we can deal with them. Of course this applies to our dealing with others too.

We were asked to take partners in the yoga class. My attention for the last ten minutes was another small girl in our class who is about my size (I’m barely 5 feet). I have no idea why my attention was on her. I liked her sweatshirt, I think. But my thoughts had gotten bizarre. She my size, but rounder and wider. That was my focus. Thoughts of her bulkiness. I have no idea why I was thinking that. The thoughts felt foreign to me and it wasn’t like me to think like that. No surprise, she chose me as her partner. When she came over she said the oddest thing.

“Boy, you are tiny,” she said. “I mean, really tiny all over.”

Did I mention she was maybe an inch taller than me? Practically the same height.

Then she followed with, “Oh, well, I just think I am bigger boned.”Then she frowned.

Ohhhh. So it was her thoughts I picked up. She, like many of us women, was having a fat thinking day. And she was projecting those thoughts around her and unfortunately, at me. I must have caught them in the air.

Later, we all formed a group exercise in standing chair where one of the ladies in the group announced the exercise wasn’t working because I was too short! Hello?

Okay, so several lessons here, like I said. One, we project those thoughts. If I am having a low self-esteem day I am probably projecting “Loser.” Okay, maybe not that bad. This instance, I think of Sarah, our beagle teagle with low self-confidence. She will jump up next to me and I will have odd thoughts of “Boy, Sarah isn’t very special, not like Emma. She’s kinda plain.” Sarah is NOT plain, and yet the thought will come up. Sure enough, later, Sarah will act a bit jealous of Emma as seen in her actions.

Second lesson, I’m short. I must accept it and move on. No seriously, the Universe through the divine wisdom of my fellow yoga ladies was reminding me I was playing small again. I forgot my power to create, the hugeness of my soul, and I was telling myself I was tiny, tiny, tiny. The lovely ladies simply went along with this projection.

Oh, another lesson, we are using telepathy everyday not just with our animals, but with each other. So be mindful of what you send out.
