WHEN THINGS GO "WRONG" BUT TURN OUT RIGHT!

WHEN THINGS GO “WRONG” BUT TURN OUT RIGHT!

We all make plans from time to time. Sometimes we get so intense that you might say we not only plan but we plot! But you and I know the Universe occasionally steps in and initiates something quite different, a left turn as it were.

My story begins about two months ago. I was planning and looking forward to a second visit to a large city on the east coast of Florida. The first time I served one of the metaphysical centers there, the minister had provided lodging in her own home. This time, while serving that same center, I was invited to stay with a new acquaintance in a separate suite of her condominium.

As usual with these trips I was completely prepared with two workshops, a lecture and a meditation. In addition I was offering private psychic counseling. On the surface it was much the same as any of my working trips.

About three weeks before I was scheduled, things starting going a bit odd. First the center’s website balked and refused to allow access. That was a bit scary to me because my income depended on those people on the center’s e-mail list knowing I was on my way, understanding what I would teach and the times of the lectures.

When the website finally opened up, the dates and times were wrong. One of my workshops was totally deleted. I was concerned but on the other hand my last visit had been so perfect, I assumed everything would straighten out in time! Plus I had learned one special attitude from a friend of mine. It always fixed any negative attitude I might be prone to use. On occasions like this I just said: “Oh, well!”

Then another glitch! The advertisement that was to appear in the local new age magazine had the wrong date and didn’t mention my other workshop. Oh, oh! This called for phrases one and two: “Oh, well… So what!”

Upon arrival at the metaphysical center it was obvious that nothing was going to happen according to plan. Now it was time for: “Oh, well…So what…Next time!” Oddly enough I felt really upbeat, not at all concerned. As it turns out there was an excellent reason for my optimism.

I was only in the city a day or so when, thanks to my new friend, I was called on to spiritually clear and clean a gorgeous bay side home of over 20,000 square feet. It was the first time I had worked with a living space of that size and I welcomed the opportunity. My new friend came with me and helped carry all my psychic “tools”.

I divided the huge house into sections for the clearing and subsequent replacing with the appropriate energy. There were three different levels to the home and so many hallways. To be certain that it was as clean as it should be, I allowed myself two days for the intense work.

The remainder of the week I was busy doing counseling sessions and chakra clearings for several friends of the home’s owners. Believe me when I say I never gave a second thought to the week that didn’t turn out “right”.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the Universe, Cosmos, Spirit, One Source, I Am that I Am.

IS YOUR LOVE ON HOLD?

I have been taking inventory again! No, not an inventory of the clothes in my overstuffed closet or my packs of Doreen Virtue’s angel cards or my well stocked refrigerator and pantry of quick meals. The inventory involves something much more important.

I believe that in theory all of us would agree that a huge part of our job here on earth is to express the love that we are. We probably would also agree that in order to express that love we, as humans, need to be able to continually forgive the large and small “offenses” committed by ourselves and others. However, it seems that what we believe to be correct and what we do, what action we take, often times are quite different.

In our humanness it seems much easier to judge and keep score. So here is where my personal inventory comes to the surface. I had a dream last night where I was (for the umpteenth dream time) taking the wrong turn back home in Illinois where I was born. That irritating dream has been mine for too many years.

Suddenly I got it! I knew exactly what that repetitive dream was about. The challenge was what to do about a grudge I had been “enjoying” for years. I had to take action. We all know that those miserable thoughts can lodge in our physical bodies and cause all sorts of discomfort not to mention disease. In this case love and forgiveness were both called for but how???

When you or I ask our guides, high self or angels we always get an answer! I asked. I listened. All I needed to begin the process of releasing my hurt and anger was so simple. My main guide, Red Feather, pointed out what I already knew but had not implemented.

I did know how to approach the situation but I had ignored it way too long. So I began seeing the troublesome man, who was the center of my misery, as an innocent infant, the way he came into this world. I rescued an old photo I had saved showing him as a child of around two years of age. I realized that then, as now, he was just trying to take the actions that would make him feel warm, comfortable, cared for, and yes, important. It no longer mattered what I thought was the “right” thing. He did then and continues to do today exactly what seems to him to be the best, the most successful for him.

With this simple approach I finally had accessed my soul wisdom. I promised myself from this day forward whenever I thought of his past interactions with me I would let him be “young and seeking”. I know he is looking to love and be loved. Never again would I engage in blaming him for what he obviously believed was his own right action.

My heart and body felt so much lighter. The long standing hurt was gone. Was this finally the end of all my judgments? I wish I could say so but I know the “grudge inventory” of my life will be an ongoing process for awhile. At least I admit to my imperfections and hopefully get some forgiveness momentum going from my heart for my negative and very earthly thoughts.

I remind you and myself that we need to continually forgive not only the other people and situations we encounter but we need to forgive ourselves.

We will keep making what we see as “mistakes” and need to see those seeming errors in judgment as the learning lessons which they are. Those mistakes can sometimes turn out to be our greatest blessings if we can acknowledge and use the gifts they offer us.

BLESS ALL OF US WHO ARE WALKING THIS PATH OF SPIRIT. LET THE CENTRAL FOCUS OF OUR LIVES BE LOVE!

The joy of my life is helping others work through the challenges of their path. If I can be of service to you by answering troubling questions or revealing some avenues of discovery, please call or write for your personal ,completely confidential, counseling session.

YOU ARE A RAINBOW!

Have you considered the range of colors present in your personal chakras? Certainly you are shining in every color of the rainbow. Those powerful energy vortices funnel into you the necessary life giving power of the one Great Source. They are the mechanism that allows you to exist as a Spirit living in a physical body.

Your chakras as a group contain all the colors of the rainbow in many varying shades while each individual vortex may be vibrating with only one color. Your overall aura or etheric body with its ever changing hues can contain myriad colors as well.

Chakra centers channel energy to you from the front, back and through your body. They bring in pure energy and are centers of consciousness. Are you aware that your chakras or these “wheels of light” as they are sometimes called, can store physical and soul memories even those of past or parallel lives? Consider the phrase “clearing karma”. Where might that karma be?

In my work with clearing and activating chakras I use three tools: crystals, tuning forks and color breathing. The crystal layout is for amplifying energy. The tuning forks are to achieve the desired vibration and speed of each vortex. Why color breathing? When a specific chakra is low in its appropriate color, it functions at a lesser level causing the adjoining chakras to be dampened or held back from their peak operating ability.

When all chakras are fully functional, clean and energized, there is an entrainment that happens between them resulting in a boost to your personal power.

A chakra that is clean and operating at optimum level is never muddy in color. The color should be light but luminous to reflect a healthy state. If I encounter a muddy appearance in any chakra while I am working with a client, I ask intuitively for the cause. If appropriate I can then offer some advice to them or adjust my work to correct the problem.

To enjoy a smooth physical and metaphysical/spiritual functioning, I ask my clients to use their imagination to breath colors into each chakra, one chakra at a time. I start with the base chakra and a clear red color, moving through the chain of chakras; using orange for the creative center, yellow for the emotions, green merging into pink for the heart and high heart, blue for communication, indigo for third eye, violet for the crown and finally white/gold/silver for the highest chakras which are above the physical body.

It has been my experience that even though I believe the colors to be correct, each person will vary those colors according to their own inner guide. In other words, if for you the sunshine yellow of your solar plexus or emotional chakra is more a pale lemon color, you should use that color. Whatever color or shade resonates with your intuitive understanding is the one you should employ.

It very well may be true that as we progress in our spiritual understanding or we move into higher levels of living and expressing, the colors we once used for our chakras may not be appropriate under the present circumstances. Going from 3rd or 4th dimensional living up to 5th is bound to cause some changes in our energy needs.

Additionally I have found that some of my clients who are spending a good percentage of their time working in the higher realms of Spirit may need to be reminded from time to time to care for the three so called “lower” chakras. Those three can become quite depleted.

As long as we are living from a physical vehicle we need to be balanced and grounded utilizing the energies of the first or base chakra. The creative or sexual chakra plays an important role in our physical life and deserves attention. It is also especially important to be able to rely on our yardstick of emotions as provided by our solar plexus or third chakra.

What other methods can we employ to keep our chakras full of color? I suggest that we give particular attention to the color of our clothing. That is we can intuitively select the colors of the clothing we wear on any particular day or evening to ramp up our aura or to better fill a particular chakra.

In other words if you feel less than grounded or your self esteem and confidence are flagging, you might choose a red shirt or sweater. Feeling unloved? Bring out the green or pink. Need to fully or forcefully express your thoughts? Try blue to aqua.

Another method of selecting appropriate “refill” colors might be to use a pendulum to dowse some colored cards to get a “hit” on the color that is needed. You could also use the pendulum by asking “is my base chakra red enough?” or “does it need more energy or speed?” You could continue to take an inventory of the basic chakras in that way asking yes or no questions.

One of my friends in Tucson always suggests that you can draw a rainbow with color crayons. The idea is that as you draw and you feel your mouth want to water or salivate that is the color you need today! You may be perfectly balanced in colors or you may find one or more than one color is needed.

Whatever way you use to care for your chakras be sure to give them the attention they deserve. You will feel much more capable in so many areas of your life just because you spend a little extra time on this physical and spiritual health exercise.

I would like to help you with any of your life challenges. I can counsel with you in my Sarasota Florida studio or over the telephone. All appointments are completely confidential. I provide a cassette recording of your session for your later review.
