Can Your Aura Be Taken?

I was flipping through Facebook Reels today. What happened next was something that changed the way I think about energy fields. I saw a woman that was carrying on in a very confusing way. She was distraught and blaming everyone for her problem. (At this point I don’t even remember what that problem was.)

She was pulling complaints and making untrue statements just to get attention and sympathy. At the end she said, “She’s taking my aura.”

This statement really made me stop and think. Can someone really take another person’s aura? She obviously was trying to get sympathy from a metaphysical crowd. Maybe thinking that there really was such a thing as taking someone’s aura!

Let’s figure out what is going on.

First of all. No. You cannot take someone else’s Aura. This personal energy that only belongs to that person.

But there are other things that can interfere with the auric energy. Usually, they have to do with being ‘open’ all the time.

By being open, I mean that you need to know how to close or protect your energy field. Because other folks (on purpose or unconsciously) can poke around in your stuff.

The first thought I have is about Energy Vampires. Now, there are people who live high on energy. And they will look for people that are unaware of protecting their energy fields.

These energy robbers know how to engage in a conversation with you (sometimes standing too close for comfort) and literally suck the energy out of you. You will feel strangely weak after that encounter.

On the other hand, there are unknowingly innocent people that are very needy. And they will also pull (or absorb) energy from you. They don’t do it on purpose but are ignorant to what is happening. They always feel better after they have spent time with you.

You may also recognize ‘spiritual gurus’ that can drain energy from a large crowd.

I’ll share how to protect your energy field in next Tuesday’s A Mystic’s Journal. so be sure to subscribe and you will automatically get it in your email when it comes out!

The Medicine Man - Energy is Energy

At one time, many years ago, there was a very old Native American who came into town every Saturday. The tribe was located very far away from the town, and it took him long hours of walking to get there. He had to start the travel before daybreak.

Some say he was the Medicine Man of his Tribe. Being a Medicine Man meant he must be able to manipulate energies in different tasks that he was to perform. Helping his people was his main intent. Some things were very difficult and needed powerful energies.

Saturday is the day all the young kids went to the movie theater downtown to watch the scary movies. Usually, two or three movies were shown.

The old man always got into town early and sat in the back of the theater by himself. After each movie, the kids were screaming and yelling and really worked up about the movie. That energy was loose in the theater and the old man sat quietly and spiritually absorbed that over abundant energy.

Yes, it was scared energy. But we all know that energy is simply energy. It is how we interpret the use of it. So, the scare energy from the kids was transmuted into positive use by the old Medicine Man. And it benefited his tribe members.

The True Aramaic Translations of Jesus’ Words

I have been reading the Aramaic translations and have come to realize (what I knew for many years) that we have been sold a book of mistranslations. Or should I say, lies? However, what NABU shares in his Substack articles help to set the truth in place. And allows us to see things as they truly are.

Written by NABU, in Earth Mastery on Substack. I’ll share a link to the original article just below. I encourage you to check him out. Here, he writes:

“Something happened to me the first time I read the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic.

I had read it a hundred times in English. Our Father who art in heaven. The words were familiar the way old furniture is familiar. Present. Unremarkable. Something you walk past without looking at.

Then I read the Aramaic underneath.

The first word is Abwoon. Not Father. Not the patriarchal figure sitting on a throne somewhere above the clouds. Abwoon is a compound. Ab, the generative creative source. Woon, a suffix describing something continuous, breathing, ongoing. The word describes a breathing creative intelligence that is continuously bringing all existence into being.

He was not addressing a king. He was addressing the breath that was keeping him alive in that moment.

I sat with that for a long time.”

There Will Be Light

The Light has expanded enough that we are able to see what had been in Darkness. This thing we can now see has not just happened but has always been there. Just hidden.

Some of us have been able to witness it. Most have not. In fact, if you had known it many years ago, and spoken of it, you probably were called crazy.

Everyday life has gotten in the way of what we can now call Truth. We become so engrained with what physically has to be done (or what society has deemed import enough to be done).

The thing is, what Light is now able to show us may not be something you want to see. But the time has come. And it is important for us to be aware of Truth.

I know. I am speaking in generalities. But it covers so many things it would be impossible for me to tell you about all of it.

But, for the record, here are a few things to consider:

The Truth about UFOs and alien life.
The disconnect between religion and spirituality.
How women have been maligned and disappeared over the ages.
What the Spirit World is all about.
How the physical body (aka Body Temple) is perfect and can heal itself.
Who the ruling class is and really calling the shots on civilization.
How powerful we each are and how to access that power.

🌀

Our lives have left energy imprints in the world. Everything we do, even if we do not intend it to be so, influences everyone else.

Since we each have our own energy signal, we share it in the world. As these signals combine and congeal, the energy we have ignites the Pathway. All positive energies gather. (Like attracts Like.)

At some point, all these positive energy signals create the strongest Light we have ever seen. I do not mean a physical light, like a light bulb. But I mean the Light of our Spirit. The Goodness and Love that we each have glows.

And sooner, we all will understand what devious and horrid things have been going on to people in the world. Both presently, in the future and in the past.

One of my husband’s favorite says was, “Sooner or later, shit will float to the top.” Yes, it was a crude saying. But Charles always said things very plainly. He did so to get your attention and create conversation. Even if it was negative conversation, it had Light Shining on it.

The thing is you don’t have to prove anything. Eventually, it will rise to the surface. Light will Shine on it, and it will be known to all of us.

All we need do is stay steadfast in our own Light.

Grow your light. Continue to be the caring and honest person you are.

You will not have to dig for the Truth. You will not have to reveal some’s dastardly deeds. Or unmask someone’s unscrupulous ways. Or look for the unsavory practices of controlling groups.

As I’ve spoken of before, there is a shift happening now, and all will be lay out for everyone to see. We are becoming aware. We all are waking up.

There will be Light.

The Third Eye

One day, while working a body/mind/spirit expo, I was giving a reading consultation to a client. I usually shared a booth with my husband who was a reflexologist. So, I had a small rectangular table set up with an Indian tablecloth on top. A chair for me and a chair for the client.

The client was asking me about a situation in her life, and I was consulting my spirit guides for insight. I needed to go deeper for more specific information. All of a sudden, I realized that I was rubbing my forehead with the fingers of my right hand.

I had never done that on purpose before, at least, consciously. But as I did it, I started getting deeper insight into the area the client had asked. More information kept coming, and as I spoke it to her, more details came through. I could see things in color, which did not always happen. And I was able to satisfy the question for her.

I did not try to figure out what was happening right then. It wasn’t until after the weekend event was over and we had gone home. I sat for meditation that next night and asked my guides what was going on with the forehead thing.

They gave me the long version. (Be careful what you ask your guides. You may get much more information than you ever thought you needed!) But, in essence, my Pineal Gland, also known as the Third Eye, was not in full operational mode. Some would say that it was partially calcified.

So, by stroking or rubbing my forehead, in the area of the third eye, I was activating it. It was being brought ‘online’ again.

It seems that during my junior high school years, my pineal gland was starting to shut down. Our family used fluoride toothpaste. Some medical theories suggest that heavy calcification may be linked to excess fluoride consumption.

The Pineal Gland

The pineal gland is the brain’s hormone-regulating center. Among other things, on a physical basis, it regulates sleep, the immune system, thirst, hunger and the aging process.

Mystical traditions and esoteric schools have long known this area in the middle of the brain, is a connecting link between the physical and nonphysical (spiritual) planes of existence. The pineal gland secretes melatonin, during times of relaxation and visualization.

Intuition is also achieved, through “third eye” development. Knowledge and memory of the astral plane are not registered in full waking consciousness, until the intuition becomes strong enough. Flashes of intuition come, with increasing consistency, as the ‘third eye’ is activated to a greater degree, through practice.

As we age the pineal gland begins to collect calcium deposits around it. And because of that, science has found that the pineal gland can atrophy over time. It can become hardened by the time adulthood is reached. This could be one of the Hidden Forces that could sabotage Enlightenment.

Natural Techniques to Bring the Third Eye Online

There are a few ways to naturally decalcify the pineal gland. To naturally support the pineal gland and optimize its function, consider incorporating the following steps:

Remove Fluoride Exposure: There are many fluoride-free toothpastes on the market these days. Also switch to drinking reverse-osmosis or high-quality filtered water.
Shift the Foods You Consume: Processed foods often contain synthetic calcium compounds. Look for more whole foods, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory staples like turmeric, raw cacao, and chlorella, which are known to aid in heavy-metal detoxification.
Consume Decalcifying Nutrients: Add foods such as seaweed, seafood and raw apple cider vinegar for holistic ways of cleansing the body.
Fine-tune Light and Sleep: Get natural sunlight in the morning. Be sure to eliminate artificial blue light before bed to support healthy melatonin production.
Practice Mindfulness: Daily meditation, yoga, and breathwork help to manage cortisol levels. Reducing chronic stress can prevent oxidative damage that may disrupt pineal health.

Another way I have discovered is deep breathing techniques during a meditative state. Stroke the forehead in the area of the pineal gland. This is what my guides told me to do. It is part of an ancient technique passed down through the centuries for reactivating the pineal gland.

The Third Eye may have been closed down over a long period of time, so expect that you will need to work on this on a regular basis to accomplish success.

Mystic's Workshop Series: Blending Integrity with Unfoldment

Blending Integrity with Unfoldment

Let’s Talk About Ethics

The concept of ethics is generally described as professional standards of conduct; uprightness and honor: being fair. Ethics are derived from social commonalities. Sometimes they come as a result of what is deemed as usual, or as society’s expected customary response.

Many psychic readers think of ethical behavior as something such as I will charge you a fair price; I will not share your information with anyone; I will refer you to another professional who may assist you, such as a lawyer or psychologist.

I feel ethics development starts (or should start) many years before working with clients as a reader. Much of it comes as part of your upbringing and the way your parents or families teach you about life and respect. It has to do with your integrity.

The integrity needed for readers comes as they are learning to use their psychic gifts. Many are born with these gifts but may not instantly know how to relate the information to others. The reader may not know about the higher and lower levels of entities relating information to them; it could be coming from a low vibration wanting to trick them or just play around. So, discernment of sources is very important.

This all comes with study, practice under mentorship, and trial and error - Unfoldment. It means allowing your gift to evolve or grow.

The process of maturing the ability teaches a reader to present the information coming through them in an honest, ethical and reliable manner. Some call it unfoldment because it is unfolding a spiritual gift that already exists, allowing it to expand and become stronger. This is the perfect way to understand what the gift is all about, how it works, to experience it in the long term. (Unfoldment is usually learned and practiced in a circle of potential mediums who sit in a group to train together and allow the gifts to mature.)

Many use the word development, since it is bringing about or producing a psychic ability. This word implies purposefully taking classes and being taught through experience. Development seems to be more directed and purposeful in the approach.

Even though these two words (unfoldment and development) are slightly different in meaning, they are commonly used in the psychic trade. I may use the words interchangeably, but I realize they are different.

Attitude of Responsibility

As a young child, you display an attitude of dependence, and rightfully so. All the things you learn require acceptance, trusting that your parents, older siblings, and people of authority are correctly guiding you.

You trust and accept. As you grow older and become a teenager, you instinctively change your attitude to one of independence. It can be difficult to know when to trust, when to show your knowledge, or lack of it. This display of independence, or challenge of authority, can often get you into trouble.

Becoming spiritually mature requires a giant leap of faith. Along with that faith comes the realization that you are capable of making good, sound decisions. Having a responsible attitude is to know you are ready for spirit to move you toward the right decision.

This change of attitude continues until you are mature enough to know when it is alright to challenge and when you are expected to be dependent. By the time you become an adult, you have gained knowledge and proper respect for those of greater knowledge. You know when to trust in your own abilities, and when to seek help and guidance.

Growing in spirituality and psychic abilities requires the same learning process as growing from childhood to the teen years and on to adulthood. By the time you have matured to adulthood (spiritually speaking), you have learned how to trust in your own abilities.

Ethical Statements

Many psychics consider offering advice or dealing with information of a personal nature as a business. Some professional psychics have a code of ethics that govern their business and protect themselves and the interest of their clients. It is important to make this code of ethics known to the general public, in order to instill trust in the services provided.

I’ve researched many materials of psychic readers and psychic organizations, and I have constructed a composite of suitable ethical statements. Below is a sample of pledges that many professional psychics make available to their clients:

I promise to ---

always serve the best interests of my clients and conduct my professional activities without intentionally causing harm.
treat all my clients with respect, regardless of origin, race, religion, gender, age or sexual preference.
honestly present my qualifications, including experience, educational credentials and levels of certification.
keep confidential the names of clients, and information shared or discussed surrounding the reading.
recommend consultation with a licensed professional for advice of a legal, financial, medical or psychological nature I am not qualified to provide.
respect my client’s right to end their reading at any time.

I agree with all of these statements. They are definitely necessary for anyone working personally with a client. However, I want to take it a step further.

Ethical behavior should be defined by a person’s integrity. The issue is not only how you work with the general public. It is how you live your life, how you are trained, how you learn, how you practice your abilities: being the best you can be for your client.

🌀 Below this line (for Inner Circle Community Only) you will find the reason I have never used the term ‘for entertainment purposes only.” and how you can too. Also, expanding on Knowledge and Responsibility and how it relates to Integrity in your Mediumship.

Shift-Ripple. What Is It?

Did I miss something?

Was I in a time warp?

Does anyone else think today is Saturday?

Have you ever felt like that? I think everyone at some time or other has felt like the calendar day is different. For whatever reason, the day (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc.) just does not feel right.

Quite often it has to do with holidays. We just get so ingrained in the work or school week and subsequent weekend, that the placement of a holiday throws us off. The expected pattern of the week is confused.

But I’ve noticed it more often. Not especially surrounding a holiday. But, just out of the blue, the day just did not feel right. Even looking at the calendar or my schedule book (yes, I use one of those) and knowing precisely the day, the next moment starts to feel strange again. “Now, what day is it again?”

Then I start asking other people what day it is. And check out other ways to determine the day. Hey, Google, what day is it today? Strange how I trust Google, but not my own feeling, right?

But I have found that other people I ask, will also agree that it does not feel like the day that is referenced on the calendar. Usually, they will say it feels like the same day I mention. “Does it feel like Friday to you?”

“LOL, I kept thinking yesterday was Friday!”

“I’ve heard lots of people saying the same thing. Interesting.”

“I have been getting this a lot this past year. I tend to advance a day or two ahead. Have to keep checking the calendar to be sure I am on the right date.”

“I thought it was Thursday...LOL”

'‘I’ve been a day off all week. There must have been a shift in The Force.”

After some evaluation concerning this idea, I realized that I was briefly disoriented, too. It seemed like having a feeling that it was a different day was very disconcerting.

Something must be wrong.

I can’t hold onto the correct day, even when I know what it is.

So, we all know that there really is no time. That time is a created human design or construct. It is an illusion, which we measure from past and present memories into the future.

🌀

Time is familiar to everyone, yet it’s hard to define and understand. Science, philosophy, religion, and the arts have different definitions of time, but the system of measuring it is relatively consistent.

Clocks are based on seconds, minutes, and hours. While the basis for these units has changed throughout history, they trace their roots back to ancient Sumeria (Sumer, an area that is now southern Iraq). The modern international unit of time, the second, is defined by the electronic transition of the cesium atom.

What is time, exactly? Physicists define time as the progression of events from the past to the present into the future. Basically, if a system is unchanging, it is timeless. Time can be considered to be the fourth dimension of reality, used to describe events in three-dimensional space. It is not something we can see, touch, or taste, but we can measure its passage. ~Thoughtco.com

Shift-Ripple

Maybe our systems were re-adjusted in some way. Actually, I think there was a shift-ripple felt.

I don’t fully understand ‘shift-ripple’ yet, but that is what my guides said to me when I asked them what was going on.

I believe it happens when we are getting too close to a moving event: something that is open to change or ‘shifting’. There are events in the universe that are undeveloped and may change from one outcome to another. These outcomes could really affect how we see the world or understand certain concepts. When we get too close to this event, the changing may be happening several times before the proper/final ending is set.

If we get caught up in that movement, then we become disoriented and have the feeling that time has shifted.

The way it looks to me right now is that the timeline does not move forward or backward. But moves at right angles. So, it is not past or future that we recognize, but into another timeline.

It all feels different. Not normal. Disoriented.

Friday.

Thank goodness that I am retired and pretty much have my own time, based on my preferences. So, I can change up what I have scheduled. Or just plain not do anything.

But as much as I like not doing anything, I have realized that it opens me to shift-ripple status more often. So maybe the answer to this dilemma is to stay busy and have a structured schedule. (Naw, that couldn't be right.)

SOUL GROUPS: I am including a short piece from the novel I have been writing. It is part of The Introduction, as a preface to this article about Soul Groups. If you are interested in reading more, you can follow along in my Ongoing Novel “Legend of The Wren” by Melissa Leath It is about a boy named Joseph Allen Walker and his life~

All About Life and the Nature of Living, by Magna Christophers.

“Before human life begins, our spirits reside in a nondescript space of love. In this space, called Soul Group, we exist and share with other spirit beings. We have shared many lifetimes and objectives. Each Soul Group has a Specific Directive or Purpose.

“Each human lifetime and shared experience within the Soul Group becomes one full experience, directed by purpose. So, each human incarnation by a spirit is assisted by the other spirits in the Soul Group to achieve it.

“When the Divine (AKA God) knows there is strife, discontent, and dissention in the Living World then a Mystery is created to effect Change. This is called the Twin Flame Phenomenon.

“The Phenomenon is not understood by many people. Mystery and Alchemy are involved. It is layered and multi-dimensional in nature.

“Only when a special mission on earth is needed do two souls agree to enter life together as one. Not as physical twins, but as twin spirits blending in understanding (but as two different people). One enters the world as Yin Energy, the other as Yang Energy: opposites. It is an undertaking that they agree to become one to accomplish.

“Once they become humans, the Soul Group memory is hidden. And the events of life occur. The other members of Soul Group assist these two flame-beings in their mission. They do this by working through spirit communication/guidance, and as living, human people gently directing them in life.”

~~Magna Christophers

In 1971, two babies are born in Mystery, to accomplish a Twin Flame Phenomenon event. One child was born in Ohio. Joseph Allen Walker is born to loving, financially comfortable parents. The next state over, Pennsylvania, Donavon Clarence is born several months later to lower class, poor and emotionally troubled parents. The Soul Group memory and plan are forgotten, and they are left to experience Life as it presents itself.

What Is the Difference Between ‘Soul’ and ‘Spirit’?

The way I have always understood the difference between Spirit and Soul is this in a nutshell:

The term Spirit represents All Energies that are of Creator Source. All That Is, or some people refer to as God. And that is where the connection of Spirit Guides comes in, because they are all part of the whole.

The term Soul is more representative to your own Self. It is the personal aspect of who you are. It includes your memories and emotional parts of your earthly experience. (We are all part of Spirit, but function here as a Soul.) It might help to remember what the airline pilots say about how many people are on board: 120 souls (not people) interesting, eh?

The audio version of this meditation is just below the content here. I have recorded it as a guided meditation.

With this meditation you can connect with the group of soul relations that you may not have been able to meet in this lifetime. We all belong to Soul Groups. Each group has a collection of souls who have experienced this earthly life together in one form or another. Since you are so familiar with each other, then a bond has been formed. All who belong to this group progress together in similar ways through understanding and spiritual growth.

There are many in your particular soul group that are not in the physical body at this time in history, along with others you may encounter during your lifetime. You will recognize the souls from your group more easily after experiencing this meditation. Since you are all associated through spirit, then you can communicate on the spirit-level.

Meditation creates the environment for you to do that. It enhances your abilities to focus in one direction and not be interrupted by other-earthly events or thoughts. Sit back, quietly relax and silently read through this meditation. Or listen to the guided audio version below it.

‘Connect with Your Soul-Group’ Guided Meditation

Click on the ▶️ Start Button for the Guided Meditation. Adjust the speaker volume.

(You can read along if your like.)

Sit quietly for a moment. Pay attention to your breathing. No need to control it. Just pay attention to it. Now, be sure your mouth is closed. Only inhale and exhale through your nose.

Slowly inhale [count 1-2-3].

Slowly exhale [count 1-2-3].

Inhale again. Exhale. Continue until you feel centered and calm.

As you relax, recognize there is a presence near you. It is so close, and it seems so natural to be there. Your heart is beating at a regular pace, and you are suddenly very aware of it. The presence is as close as your heartbeat. It’s easy to connect with something so familiar.

Your heart energy is wide open, and the beautiful colors of green and pink are flowing through your heart center. They are colors of love and healing. It creates a sense of acceptance and warmth. Watch the flow of color energies for a few minutes....

...the pink and green energy ribbons swirl around in your mind...you can see them moving randomly, making unusual patterns and symbols.

...When you are in this state of being, you are aware of your entire soul group being present and connected to you. This connection can be seen by the colors that are flowing through your heart center.

The green and pink colors are showing you how your soulmates are intertwined with you and your experience.

[ continue to focus on your breath]

Some of these souls will enter your life, either for a few days or a few weeks; some for much longer relationships. Other souls will enter your experience through your meditations, dreams, or influence you by impressions.

As you meet these souls in your life, you will recognize them by sensing one of the events from this meditation: you may see green or pink colors in your inner vision; you may feel your heart beating or feel a sense of warmth and acceptance. These will be signs you can use to re-member your connection with one of the souls in this soul group. As long as your heart is open through love, you will know them.

Return to your breathing. Focus on your physical body. Be present in the moment, now. Come back to the point that you are awake and aware of who you are and why you first entered the meditation. Choose to be here now.

As you regularly use this meditation, you will commune with all the souls in your particular group: those that are not in the physical right now and those who will be coming into your physical reality soon. You will know without a doubt when you meet one of your soul group members.

Be sure to thank your higher self for being so loving and to assist you in all your encounters.

You are consciously thinking one thing. But your subconscious is believing another.

Honoring Self

Honoring others is taught in many ways. But how often are you taught to honor yourself? This must be one of the most powerful thoughts you could have: to believe in your own divinity.

If you can see yourself as a spark of the Divine---a piece of the creative universe, then you can accept yourself as a creator. Quite an awesome responsibility!

If I am divine, then I am a creator, and can manifest my own future. I can create the love I want in my life and so can others. I can create the perfect career for myself, and so can others. I can bring into my life, all the supplies and sustenance needed to thrive in this remarkable world, and at the same time, see it for others. Whatever is needed for me and others, must, by all rights, be manifest.

Together, through all divine creators, Peace can come into reality. I can allow it to be, can you? I believe in my own divinity – and yours.

Share A Mystics Journal

Some time ago, Charles (my husband) and I went to the theater to watch the movie “Radio,” starring Cuba Gooding, Jr. “Radio” is one of those wonderful stories that can define Divinity on a personal level. The young man nicknamed Radio, who was challenged in many ways, was able to see everyone as being divine. And in doing so, he was able to create a fantastic future for himself. You have the ability to bring that aspect into your own life.

Sometimes it is so easy to get stuck in negative vibrations. Sometimes I find myself wallowing in them big time!

After many years of researching and experimenting with manifestation and positive thinking, Lynn Grabhorn wrote about a very simple view in her great book, “Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting” (free pdf download). There she has fantastic information we have used to help pull ourselves out of negative thinking. Grabhorn says that by holding a joyous, positive thought and feeling for at least 16 seconds, the energy we are emanating actually changes.

When we consciously find ourselves thinking in negative ways, or can’t understand why our life isn’t working, we pull out a fun, exciting memory that kick starts high vibrations.

By changing the vibrational energy around us, we are able to bring more positive aspects of life around us. This is when things actually shift. We can feel a change take place.

That word ‘feeling’ comes up again and again, doesn’t it? Grabhorn also says it’s not enough thinking of the happy situation. You have to really feel it. Remember when it really happened and relive that feeling. That feeling of excitement or joy implanted a special signal in your energy grid.

By accessing it again, it is like putting in an old tape into the cassette player. The music you loved so long ago is still there. The dance steps come back naturally and the part of your life you thought had disappeared returns.

It all is through the feeling that took place the first time it was experienced. It was indelibly implanted into your energy system to access anytime you would like to. What a wonderful thing!

Life may have moved into more sophisticated aspects over the years, using CD’s or DVD’s (or, what’s the new thing? Spotify?). The tools may have changed. But the implanted energetic pattern is always there!

Many years had gone by while we tried to understand how to be successful and prosperous. We allowed society and religion to keep us in a poverty-mode.

Our environment keeps us all in the same manner of thinking. Everything you come into contact with helps to create this way of thinking.

We were right there: Thinking we were not worthy to be successful!

We knew this was an area we still needed to work on. But just didn’t have a clue where to search now.

Intellectually, we knew it couldn’t be true. But it took so much to work through: reading, searching, workshops, subconscious investigation, rationalizing… We spend a lot of time feeling bad because we were not being successful!

How Do You Change Your Thoughts?

If you decide you want to make a change in your life, such as preferring to be successful, you’ll first have to listen to what you’re thinking. That’s a conversation that many people don’t pay much attention to. The thoughts you entertain are jailers who are keeping your mind locked.

You first have to understand the words that are going through your mind. Understand the meaning of the words. You have to start changing what you think and how you react to situations in your moment-to- moment life.

The first real clue we came upon was a book by U. S. Anderson called, “Three Magic Words,” I’ve mentioned in earlier Journal Entries. That book helped us to understand how the subconscious mind works. From an early age, you start to log in certain thoughts, or ‘prompters’ that stay with you locked in the mind. And these become what you subconsciously believe to be true.

The conscious mind doesn’t always believe the same thing the subconscious mind does. (Read that sentence again.) For all intents and purposes, it doesn’t really matter what you want to think.

The subconscious will keep bringing the firm (but illogical) hidden belief system to the forefront. It has this crazy way of preventing you from being or doing the things you really would like to.

I think of it as my sabotaging self. It was really doing what it felt it must. But I had to do something about it—I had to redirect it. After all, it is my subconscious mind. I am in control!

Phrases like: ‘You know, it’s rough out there’… ‘It’s becoming harder and harder to make a living’…’The politicians are causing all our problems’…’I’m saving my money for a rainy day.’

Continual use of these words and phrases in your conversation is the thing taking away your power.

I’m not saying it’s going to be easy to change your way of thinking. It’s going to take a great deal of work and dedication. But you are worth it!

After a while, if you are doing it consistently, you will start paying attention to the conversations you have with other people. And you’ll notice how it may be leading you right back to the negative thoughts you were trying to change. Now these people may not be interested in changing their lives or their thinking. But you still have to encounter them every day.

The more you understand about making changes, the more you will isolate yourself from these people. Their conversations are always leading in the very same direction.

They hold very little positive thoughts, and they will not embrace your new way of thinking. It’s just too hard to take responsibility (or so they think). It’s much easier to give it to someone else or have someone else to do it for them.

If you’re serious about changing your direction in life, it’s almost like becoming a fan. You will need to have fanatical drive in working on your subconscious mind and freeing it, filling your mind with new positive ways of thinking.

As you make this change, your environment will change around you. Your interest will change; you’ll be involved with what makes you happy.

The majority of people around you may not accept the fact that you are changing. Family and friends won’t understand who you are any more.

The easiest way around this --- the only way --- is to take responsibility. Of course, you must honor their opinion. But it is just that: their opinion. You must also honor your own opinion. The more you change your thinking the happier you will be. As you do this, you will see the illusions around you disappear.

…and you become empowered. Successful!

I’ve spent a long time thinking about the conscious mind and the subconscious. I know that you can be successful in your thinking.

What’s the Deal with Reincarnation?

“What was I thinking?” is the most common statement that comes out of my mouth when I think of agreeing to incarnate here, now.

I mean, no one in their right mind would have agreed to living in this mess. All these problems, all the challenges. If I knew then what I know now, no way!

Reincarnation quite often is described as the continuous cycle of birth, death, and rebirth of the same soul. Karma, the sum of a person's actions in this or previous states of existence, often is included or influences the outcome or direction of future birth.

There are several schools of thought when it comes to reincarnation. And we can explore a few of them.

⭐ The Informed Spirit. This is the most accepted thought when it comes to reincarnation. Upon dying, you go to the Light and return to your Soul Group. You choose your own future parents, timeframe and logistics. Deciding to come back to make it right or better next time. Setting up the best circumstances for you to blossom in Carnal Life, you know, the third dimension.

This version of reincarnation is one that gives us power in decisions. As Spirit, you deliberate with fellow soul group mates and come to a decision that would fit your need for growth. It actually gives the sense that there is meaning to the whole Living a Life idea.

The reincarnation of the soul is meant to learn new lessons over and over in each new life. When the timing was right, you made your entrance. This could happen immediately or take centuries for just the right timing.

⭐ Automatic Return. We don’t even have a chance to think about it or decide what is best in the long run. You just die, process and then return at the first most convenient time. Whatever you end up with, there you are. One and done.

⭐ Go to the Light for Processing. You know, I was alright with the idea that I have a chance to pick my own parents, timeframe and logistics for my higher good. If I had to believe in reincarnation, this was the most logical and satisfying scenario I had heard.

Then one day a radical friend told us that this process was a contrived scam that needed spirits to repopulate earth and generate frightened vibrational energy for ‘the others’ to consume. Do not go to the Light. This is where you get re-programmed to enter the cycle again. It gave me the feeling of a processing plant or production line. (Think: Cloud Atlas, circa 2144: An Orison of Sonmi-451, Futuristic Korea. A “fabricant” or clone waitress, Sonmi-451, is interviewed, revealing a dystopian society divided into “purebloods” and clones. Considerations of consumerism, artificiality, and the fight for freedom.)

⭐ Demonic Deception. Even though some people have ‘past life memories,’ Christianity often interprets these experiences as demonic deception or spiritual manipulation rather than proof of past lives. Christian scripts refer to the resurrection and eternal life instead of a cycle of rebirth, emphasizing that the soul does not return to another earthly body.

There is quite a controversy around the concept of reincarnation. Most of it comes from the beliefs and religious views of certain groups of people. But I think the most persuasive argument against it is that there is no empirical, scientific ‘evidence’ proving (or disproving) reincarnation.

I’d have to say that it all depends on your own thoughts and beliefs this time around. For me, I live by faith, not sight. I do not have to have in my face, physical evidence of something to prove it to me.

Our lives are not our own. We are bound to others, past and present, and by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future. ~ Sonmi-451
