Have you ever wondered why twin-flames experience so much separation from each other? The connection you have with your twin-flame is meant to help each of you ascend. You will experience periods of merging followed by periods of separation until each of you has managed to ascend to a level that will allow you to remain in a stable union.



When you and your twin-flame come together, it is like two flint rocks being struck together, creating a spark that will propel you further into your spiritu...

                We are at a time in human history when many of us are experiencing a greater awakening of our psychic talents. Here are some of the ways of supporting greater psychic awareness that have worked for me.

1.) DRINK MORE WATER! Actually, I’m not always so great at utilizing this one myself, but I have to include it because it’s both true and easy to do. I learned this from psychic medium Steven Frampton years ago when I was attending his Intuition Development Class. He taught...

Life could just as well be fiction. Perhaps it is. It is. But it is a play we must play out.

               

                Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson never met, although they could have, and each in their own “queer” ways having changed poetry forever—untrapped the possibilities of it. Would they have even liked each other? Whitman, the bold political revolutionary (though literature classes have forgotten that of him) who lamented “I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don�...

What Does it Mean to Have LIME GREEN in the aura?

                All of the loving, compassionate energies we commonly associate with the heart chakra (which is the green-colored chakra) will be present in anyone who has lime green in their aura. However, the lime-green shade carries its own specific energy as well.

                The person with lime-green in their aura is very creative—in fact they can barely contain their creative impulses. Inspiration comes to this person in sudden,...

I love the poet Rumi. I think many of us who tend toward addiction also tend toward desperate, chaotic attempts at "love," which in the end are not true, real, pure love from the heart. Love that comes of pleading and coercing is not real love. We cannot truly love another until we learn to truly love ourselves. How can I love myself today?

Love

I've been very aware of other people's emotions ever since I was a child. I never realized there was anything particularly intuitive going on. I did often feel that I just "knew" certain things to be true but had great difficulty explaining why. "Just trust me, I can tell!" I would say to my friends, and simultaneously be frustrated because I was convinced they still would not understand. I had no idea this was an indication of intuitive ability though. I even remember when I was young, readi...

Let me help you kick your year off right by teaching you how to find your “Personal Year Number” for 2013. According to numerologists this number will define the general theme for the year to come. If you'd rather do things the EASY PEASY way, visit one of the many Personal Year Number calculators on the web, such as THIS ONE. If you want to know how the math works follow along. All you need to do is add together the digits of your month of birth, day of birth, and the digits of the year....

Step 11: Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

I don't necessarily think of God as a "him," but that particular wording issue aside, this is one of my favorite steps. I believe very strongly, and have for several years before joining Overeaters Anonymous, that there is always guidance available to us from "spirit," our "higher selves," from "God" or "t...

    I am very attracted to Shamanic means of connecting with nature. When we connect with a plant, animal, stone, landscape, etc. in a shamanic way, I believe there is a mutual exchange of healing and sharing of wisdom. Today, as I have been contemplating both who I want to be in this newest of years and what I want out of life from this moment forward, the image and wisdom of Redwood presented itself to me. Totems need not only come in the form of animals. There are totem plants as well....

    In some ways it would be easier if I did not recognize that my thoughts create my reality. Because then I could continue to live from a victim mentality, from a blame-someone-else mentality, and not have to own up to the world that I have created for myself. I could say, "these are the horrible circumstances that have been laid upon my head, and woe to me, there is nothing I can do about them."

    But the more I awaken, the more I am aware that I do have to own my perceptions ...

I set my orange flowers in a boat and send them off to heaven.
I feel heaven raining down in drops of orange-scented love.
--Gabby Turner

This song is meant to be sung with the first line repeating 8 times, followed by 8 repetitions of the second line. That form is inspired by the singing I've been doing at the Kirtan and Meditation I go to twice a month. Devotional singing/chanting does not need variety, so much as devotion! The meaning is not lost through repetition, it is transcended, so that...

    Last night I dreamt that I was on some school campus, and was a part of some larger campus community. There was a girl who had just committed suicide, and perhaps I was nearby when it happened and I was hit with a stray piece of bullet, but I had a chest wound in this dream. I don't remember actually seeing the suicide though, so maybe it was just the general irrational work of dreaming that caused me to have this bleeding wound in my upper chest. I kept walking around, holding my shir...

    I've been experiencing an opening up of my foot chakra lately, and if you experience tingling/heat/sparking sensations in your own feet, you may be doing the same! Until recently, I was barely aware that I even had a thing called a foot chakra. This changed a little over two months ago when I took my first Shamballa Multidimensional Healing class. Shamballa is a form of energy healing that is similar in some ways to traditional Usui Reiki and that shares some of the same principles and to...

        I'm not above using sensationalism to get people to read my blog entries. :) I say PG because this account is far from pornographic, though I do use the word "orgasm" many times, so if that bothers you you may not want to read further.  :)
        In late 2006 I entered a deep depression that changed my life in many ways, one of which was that it dampened my orgasms so that I was not able to experience the catharsis that I had used to feel with them. It was a depression that I feel lik...

        So last night I watched The Secret. I do believe the basic premise of the Law of Attraction makes sense... and I have seen prayer work in the same basic way (you are grateful for what you have, you ask for what you'd like and have faith that it will come to you in the universe's own way, and if it is the best for you). What I don't understand about the Law of Attraction is that it doesn't really matter whether or not what you are manifesting is good for you or not: you'll get it...

Want to Be

A snake doesn't worry that it used to have that skin it shed.
I want to open... like a thousand-petaled lotus in the sun.
I want to live... and let the past roll out behind me.
I want to give... all of myself to the dark edges of eternity.

Want to Be sung by yours truly 

I write little song snippets every now and then (sometimes they graduate into full songs, usually not) and then I enjoy singing them poorly. ;)

    Many spiritual teachers or healers, even now myself, offer their services to corporations. I, for instance, have just begun offering Reiki Group Healing services to organizations--which theoretically could include corporations. A fairly successful medium whose Intuition Development Circle I attend on Tuesday nights recently told our circle that when he began his Spiritual/Mediumship business he did so with the intention of "making corporations more spiritual." I wonder, though, when peopl...

        Despite the amazing capabilities of our minds, we humans seem to have an impressive urge to be blind to anything that is overly difficult or incomprehensible. We relegate these things to our subconscious—the attics of our minds. In the past year, our global community has been immensely impacted by disaster to an extent that we had yet to experience, but even the BP Oil Disaster and a nuclear meltdown in Japan can’t seem to hold our attentions. We are continually in a proce...

    Monday morning I woke from a long series of interconnected dreams. In one of them I was in an upscale, crimson-upholstered auditorium of some kind. Various real and imagined people from my life and past were there among the rows of chairs as very large coins floated down toward us from the ceiling, rotating slowly as they came. I was very involved with collecting my own stack of coins, mostly noticing the others from my visual periphery where I saw them also eagerly holding up their arms ...

    I'm certainly not trying to pass myself off as either an herbalist or a nutritionist here, but I do know that herbs are immensely nutritious and healthy. Pesto is a great way to prepare herbs, and the traditional sauce is made with basil, but basil is difficult to find in bulk and is also a little pricey. Last year I attempted growing some but the plants barely got off the ground. It's a tricky plant to grow, except for my next-door-neighbor, who won't share with me even though his plants...

    My best friend and I make homemade cleaner with white vinegar and essential oils, and I'm sharing the (very easy!) process of making this cleaner with you because it's a.) environmentally friendly b.) animal and people-friendly (aka, non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, and not a breathing hazard) c.) it cleans my kitchen counters better than ANY commercial chemical cleaner EVER has d.) it's cheap to make and e.) it has the added holistic-healing benefit of aromatherapy! Read on for the easy "rec...

    Lately I have been actively trying to draw-forth and utilize prana energy, which is available in never-ending quantities but which many if not most of us fail to fully vitalize ourselves with. Prana is the life-force energy that makes living more present and joyful. The following painting (by Scott Edward Harrington from the Google Creative Commons) is an excellent image of what living fully engaged with prana energy can be like.



    I was listening to Neil Young's Heart of Gold tonight as...
