Jason left “for good” just like three other times. He said he would be back for his stuff on the weekend. He didn’t. Four weeks later a pair of his dirty underwear was still on the floor and three of his shirts were folded on top of Erika's dresser. Worse, he still had the key to her apartment. At any given moment he could walk right in. Or would he? It was a daily hell trying to figure him out. Ericka cried a lot and wrapped his shirts around her to feel his presence.
TEXT MESSAGES
Jasen left a lot of text messages for Ericka.
“Be back when I have time to think.”
“Do you love me?” Ericka would text back..
“You know how I feel” he quickly messaged back.
Somehow Ericka always felt worse after these messages. This was old stuff. Why did she owe him time to think? One day she shoved all his belongings in a black garbage bag and tossed them in the hall way….
TEXT MESSAGE "I Want My Key Back"
“Come and get your stuff. It’s in the hall.”
“WHAT?” he texted back.
“I want my key back.”
“You know I love you.” He messaged back.
“YOU CALL THIS LOVE?”
“Lets talk. Be there at 6:30” he text promised back.
HE DIDN’T EVEN KNOCK
Jasen didn’t come at the time he said he would. Ericka cried herself to sleep.
That night Jasen unlocked the door with the key he still had, and slipped into bed.
She knew it was unfair. He had waited until she was too tired to confront him.
The next day the black garbage bag was sitting in the living room.
Jasen had come back to stay but for how long?
NO TRUST
Each time the “Come Back Kid” syndrome happened Erika trusted Jasen less..
She feared he had slept around while he was gone. What disease did he come back with?
The name of the game began to be “Who owed who more?” Did Erika owe him quiet acceptance to make him feel comfortable? {He might leave again.}
Did Jasen owe Ericka shopping sprees and dinner out for leaving and making her cry?
They were locked in a pattern they could not get out of.
ERICKA'S PSYCHIC READING
Ericka was stressed. She felt like screaming when ever she went to work.
One day she called a Psychic. She was hoping for good news to make her feel better.
PSYCHIC: What is your first name please?
"Ericka"
PSYCHIC: I see you are deeply sad and feel like a hurt child.”
YES, I DO FEEL THAT WAY.
PSYCHIC: “Ericka, the man you love has become spoiled. In many ways he feels as if you are like his mother. Your love is unconditional. Its time for tough love.”
“YES I FEEL THIS” confirmed Ericka.
PSYCHIC: “What is the name of this person Ericka?”
“Jasen”
PSYCHIC: "Jasen is seen being in love with you. However the more he feels his need to be with you the more he also is afraid of growing up. He knows he owes you the next level. Responsibility and Commitment are not what he wants at this time."
"YES I FEEL THIS."
PSYCHIC: "Ericka, its time to teach Jasen how to treat you. You have become too available…too patient. "
"I FEEL THIS TOO."
PSYCHIC: "Yes. Each time you take him back he feels it becomes easier to disrespect you."
"I KNOW. WHAT SHOULD I DO?"
PSYCHIC: "Your best coarse of action is to separate for 2 months on your own terms."
"HE ALWAYS TAKES THE KEY AND LEAVES HIS STUFF."
PSYCHIC: "The advice seen and felt Ericka is to make a date for him to leave on your own terms. Stick to your guns. Give him a date, say goodbye. If he leaves in a rush take his belongings to a friend.. Change the locks on your doors if he takes the key.
"WHAT IF HE DOES NOT COME BACK?"
PSYCHIC: "This is your life and you must do what you want. Ericka, is it being good to your Angles to hurt and cry? Is this the love you want to claim for the rest of your life? Be strong. You will be proud you did. If in 2 months this man has not changed his attitude move on. Draw a circle around two months from now. That is enough time for him to understand you demand respect."
"I WILL TRY"
PSYCHIC: Ericka? There is another man seen for you in 2012. There is seen a wonderful person who will cherish and love you. The future is changeable with your wise actions."
"THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST WITH ME."
CONCLUSION
In many ways Ericka felt the Psychic confirmed what she already knew. The odd part is she had only given names. She had not been asked for any details. Better yet, Ericka felt lighter. It was not a friend or relative offering advice or insisting she listen to them. Ericka had gone to the Psychic on her own accord and her privacy was sacred.
How do you know when its time to find new friends? Do you work harder then everyone around you but get no respect? Are you buying stunning clothes but making no investment into a life? It's time for a new life story

You quit working an outside job to be self employed, but the creative opportunities aren’t there. You’re broke. {time for a new job?}
-
You stay home weekends, never go out, but blame life for becoming boring. {Loneliness is self chosen. Join a group, school or volunteer your services.}
-
You can't pay the bills, so you go on a spending spree with the charge card. {Oh Oh! Are you becoming a shopaholic? }

HOW TO MAKE A CREATIVE CHANGE DECISION.

· How will you feel about this change in 10 days?
· How will you feel about this change in 10 weeks?
· How will you feel about a change 10 years from now?
If what you imagine is a better and happier you, FLUSH OUT the stagnancy of your life. Its time for a new chapter. Change is the "Reboot" of your life story.
"Yes....I mean it. No matter how much he has been distancing from you, your going to get back together!" said the reader to the distraught caller." "REALLY, THANK GOD! shouted the caller. It didn't make sense, she knew it, but she liked what she was hearing. She even gave the reader a long feed back raving about how THIS READER was the only one that gave her hope.
WHAT'S A SUGAR COATED READING?
What the caller did not know was that she was being given a sugar coated reading. The reader had clearly seen the callers relationship was over, but she knew that the chances of getting a 5 star rating and repeat calls, would be much more likely if she gave her client a happy reading full of hope. And she was right. Her caller came back weekly for reassurance that waiting by the phone for the next 3 months, ruining her summer chances for new love, was worth it. It seemed pretty silly....but she would rather hear the hopeful readings, then the truth. She carefully picked ONLY the readers who would sugar coat, and left negative feed back for those that were honest with her. And just like wearing stiletto heels in the dirt, her spike heels sinking deep into the soil as she struggled to walk, she would rather trip through life then change her outlook on life.
YOUR PAST HISTORY SPEAKS AS LOUD AS PSYCHIC WORDS
Understand that the history you have had at a job, relationship or family member should ring very clear and similar with the reading you are getting. How will you know a sugar coated reading?
- You are being told how much someone honors and appreciates you.....when they are consistently ignoring you and going out with others. Really?
- You are being told that the dead end job you have had for 2 years, is going to promote you to a management position. Really?
- You have been told that the overweight child who shuts himself in his room playing computer games and smells like BO and junk food, is going to make the athletic team and make the Deans list. Possible.....but really?
- You are being told the guy that you waited 18 moths to get out of the pen for, and constantly calls for money, is your soul mate. Really?
Anything is possible. But really you may say? I mean the thought of
WEARING stilettos in the dirt, the spikes sinking deep into the soil as you struggle to walk, seems pretty silly. When your personal history clearly shows you one thing, and your reader is interpreting road blocks, stagnation and abuse as positive with a best case scenario, understand you may be getting a sugar coated reading.
LOOK FOR HONESTY WITH SOFT WORDS
- Your reader should not sugar coat a "stilettos in the garden" situation. They should not promise you something that would be utterly stupid to go back to,
or to put your life on hold for. We get stuck and trip in life enough,
but add a different twist with common sense.....and wish upon a star can come true.
- Your reader should offer a realistic strategy.....just like the stiletto with a plant in
it in the picture above, you can make stilettos in the garden work, but with new options to accomplish your goal.
- Stilettos in the Tarot Garden are possible, with common sense and creativity.
Love, a work raise, soul mate and successful child can be a reality, with an honest out look and correct strategy. Avoid wearing stiletto heals in fertile dirt. Truth is creative opportunity to show you its time for change.
I have found that the land, psychic shop entrance or acreage we "force" our will on, is crying for us to connect with it. With out the slightest regard or effort to shake hands with our garden spirits, we just barge in, till up, hack, shovel, hoe, seed and fertilize.
- I compare disregard for land "energy", to the days when people thought of animals as machines. Now we are so close to our animals its as if they are our children.
- It has taken some of us longer to realize that land has vital energy spirit, also, and needs our compassion. Simple consideration goes a long ways.
- Those that love the earth, feel as much pain seeing a grove of trees being cut down, as they do an animal be run over. We "feel" for the land, and see it reaching out to us.
YOUR LAND IS FILLED WITH HISTORY, ENERGY and PERSONALITY
Its been said that parallel time dimensions may be happening simultaneously at the same moment. "The past, present and future are all one," as Einstein put it. Its hard to imagine that as we sit in our favorite lawn chair in our garden sipping iced tea, a dinosaur may be walking through us in a rain forest, mega sharks may be swimming in an ocean, and a Native American village of tee pees could be standing in a circle, all with out any awareness of the others existence. Give enough history to land, and it starts to get a "personality". Just like houses in a neighborhood, that repeatedly attract the same kind of people, so does land carry energy and personality.
- For instance, that party house down the street always seems to be rented by trouble makers and swarming with police.
- the house across the street may attract sickness or accidental death, and no matter who moves in, its as if another person gets in a car accident or gets terminally sick. Why?
- the house to the East, where gardens flourish, may seem to attract nurturers. It's as if the land energy is choosing its own care givers.
- Eons of historical events have left their mark in the energy of the land, attracting like minded dwellers.
- Intuitive Gardening is the art of "Reading your land" for messages, before forcing your will on it. This can be done with Tarot, Stones, Pendulums or Channeling.
- Intuitive gardening is compassionate gardening.
BEFORE PLANTING, SHAKE HANDS WITH YOUR GARDEN SPIRITS
On a beautiful day alone, or with like-minded friends, lay Tarot, Runes or hold a Pendulum over the area you wish to garden. Ask questions that are relevant to your garden spirit. Again, whether you use tools, drums or channel alone, is not important. It is the act of reaching out to "know" your land. Questions you may ask are:
- What is the energy of this earth spot?
- What is the message and tone of your history?
- Are you happy? Sad? Peaceful?
- If you could tell me anything, what would it be?
- Is it acceptable for me to plant here?
- If I put representative statuary here, of what energy would you prefer it to "represent" in honor of you?
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR GARDEN SPIRIT IS UNWILLING?
Is your garden speaking to you? Are you listening? Signs of garden spirit discontent are:
- Quality plants die for no reason,despite perfect growing conditions.
- Chimes fall from the hooks you anchor them to, and new trees pop out of their growing supports as if running away.
- Your legs feel heavy and you suddenly become tired.
- Your garden tools fall apart.
- Fights and bickering with loved ones erupt when close to your garden.
THE BLESSINGS OF BONDING WITH YOUR LAND INTUITIVELY
- Increased Business and Money Flow
- Tranquil Meditation Sanctuary experiences
- Wonderful spiritual circles where people are drawn magnetically.
- Healthy thriving plants, brilliant foliage colors
- Your land spirit will resonate as an Ali protector to aid in bringing in creative friends.
- Your garden Spirit purrs like a cat, in a silent call only you can hear. Experience the balance of your Alpha waves, and an invitation to use your garden as a blank canvas in which to create your life story to find peaceful resolve.
- Garden Spirit does not walk up to you like a person, but fills your heart and soul. Visitors, whether plant savoy or not, will experience a shimmer, order, balance and power.
" EXPERIENCE" THE BOOK
Ground Messages through Spiritual Tools: Before creating a mystical
garden space, I use a deck of Tarot in the same way a water stick finds
a well. Placing the cards on the ground I envision the meditation
sanctuary, and channel the lands vital spiritual message. • Alone, or
with wine and like minded friends, you may wish to use a quartz crystal
pendulum for receiving and amplifying ground energy. • You may spread
rune stones on a cloth above the chosen mystical meditation space for a
message. • A ceremony honoring the earth, much in the way Native
Americans gave thanks to the animals they hunt for food, shows honor to
the ground. • You may choose to say a ceremony prayer such as, “Holy
Goddess and Angels, mother of earth, mother of us all, guide my heart
and mind as I interpret the Land’s message to me.”
Are you riding the rails for everyone's problems to help, listen, and nurture? Feeling exhausted? Who's taking care of you? When your lovers all seem to be incarcerated, war torn, alcoholics or clinically insane, its time to remind your self that you may be repeating a behavior you watched one of your parents do growing up. I call this "emotional-breast-feeding." It's the habitual need to fix and counsel to feel loved and empowered. Men and women, both, suffer from this syndrome, and it sneaks up gradually, until one day they are being a support system for a Jeffry Domer type, capable of personifying upstanding qualities, while eating his friends for breakfast.
Children from torn homes, who watched a parent go through abuse or settle for less, may have been utterly disgusted, in complete bewilderment as to why their parent did not recognize what was happening to them. As often happens, the children suffer the wrath or disappointments from the "shat on" parent. Parent doesn't mean to psychologically beat up child, but just showing this kind of behavior is a slap in the face.
Role model behavior, good and bad, runs deep, and before they know it, these adult children may find them selves repeating the very behavior they swore never to do. It happens so subtly, that when they finally recognize it is happening to them as well, they tend to have three reactions:
First Reaction: An immediate break up! The fixer is shocked they would allow someone to do to them, what they saw their parent let happen. Oddly, immediately and blindly, they listen like a counselor, write supportive letters, and become completely immersed into "emotional breast feeding" with yet another broken winged bird. Each abusing and using person has their own fascinating story, each different in some way from the other. Seldom do the emotionally wounded stay long, but suck the breath away from the emotional-breast-feeder until healed, then fly away. At this point a feeling of helplessness sets into the fixer.
Second Reaction: Emotional-Breast-Feeder breaks up with the controlling manipulative user completely, and swears off All relationships. The problem is the fixer may recreate the same dynamics in friendships. Suddenly they are crying, feeling used, while at the same time knocking themselves out to give gifts, listen to hours of wailing on the phone by distressed friends who run like mad when they see the emotional-breast-feeder needs attention in return.
Third Reaction: There are some hardened emotional-breast-feeders that become so determined to never become a fixer again, ......that they become the Abuser and User in relationships themselves. In a complete reversal, instead of seeking healthy solutions for a mutual sharing relationship, they see the world as "Use or Be Used". To the utter amazement of family and friends, they see their dear one become a demanding bossy tyrant, and wonder if they are seeing things correctly. Wasn't this their dear shrinking violet not long ago?
There is nothing more scary then when an illness, a horrible accusation, death or divorce come into our lives. Its as if we are on a run away train of fear. Here are some tools to reach acceptance and calm. And no, your angels have not deserted you.
With calm and acceptance, what seemed like demons, turns back into the faces of our angels.There
is probably no better time to walk our talk, to trust our guides, and
to have faith in our angels, then when a 9-11 happens to our personal
lives. Maybe its a slam against our reputation, an unpredictable health
crisis, a death of someone we love, or a loss of a job. The truth is
that every so often a crisis will happen to each and every one of us.
Are we ready?
{Breathe deeply}
We have our lives neatly packaged in predictable
insurance policies, 401 K, a ready made plan for the end of the world,
and spiritual quotations that seem wise and right to say at all the
appropriate times. But when the crisis happens to US.....RARELY is there
a warning, and seldom is the crisis what we thought it was going to be.
{breathe.....fill your self with light...accept the fear}
Amazingly
if we have not been walking our own talk, hearing someone say the
spiritual cliches we ourselves said, {before the veil of
predictability was so rudely ripped away}, may even anger us. This is
fear talking. We want answers! Now! We are overwhelmed and on a run away
train. Just yesterday everything was fine.
{breathe...fill your self, the area of pain, with light}
The whole world
takes on a different "texture", smell and feel. Fear is like this. Once
it sets in, what we have been preaching as spiritualists, is tested to
the core. At times, it feels like our angels have left us. But they
haven't.
{breathe...visualize wings of protection around you.}
Fear can even make our friends and angels look like
demons against us. Acceptance of our situation, brings calm, sleep and
healing. With calm and acceptance, what seemed like demons, turns back
into the faces of our angels and our dear friends again.
{breathe...you are loved.}
Once our
calm has returned, we realize no matter what has happened, spiritual hands
of warmth and guidance reach to help all around us. Our "inner voice"
says kinder things, and is less fear based. Even if one does not believe
in angels, calm and acceptance are angelic and powerful "tools" that
help us to cope with fear.
It is my mission to aid you in finding calm and acceptance during your 40 days and nights of the wilderness.
Dear Ann Marie, My X husband says he still loves me, but does not meet his responsibilities. I allow his impulsive visits with the children to be within my home. He won't change, but claims he wants to be the husband I need. It makes no sense. I would like to move on and find new love. There he is again as if nothing happened. I can't shake him off! Am I on the right path?
RESPONSEDear Jessie, It is important if you want new love and a good
life, to remember you must understand this "enigma" man feels no
remorse about leading you on with self pity; and most likely uses
the children as a tool to get his way. The following is seen:
- He will not change. He will not give you the relationship you seek. Just more games.
- Every
time you bring him in your home, you lead him on to believe "this is
good enough". What more could he want then a 2 hour family within old
turf?
- At this point you must remember that as SWEET as his "mask" may be, he will use your kindness to his benefit....{and probably everyone else he knows as well.}
- Do
the new man {seen in January} a favor and establish BOUNDARIES with your X NOW.
- Do not allow your home to be the meeting place.
- Find
a park, or mall or visiting place outside your home to exchange the
children for visits. Leave for 2 hours and do some shopping. Come back
at the established time and pick them up. Millions of women do this
successfully. So can you. This places the power in your hands.
- Understand that some sociopaths use crocodile tears, to establish that mom is mean to daddy.
- DON'T FALL FOR IT.
- Not
only are you setting boundaries for the new man in your future,
......but if your X is only using the children as a tool to be with you,
he will suddenly want to be with them Less.
- So for
now, this is your homework, and sounds like you are well on your path to finding happiness. I applaud you.
NOTE: Sociopaths are simply people that seem to have no conscious about leading people on to get their way. They have no remorse about what their actions create, yet understand how to fit in to society and be accepted, loved and entrance others with great charm. They have normal faces, and use compassionate people to get what they need. Seldom are they killers or molesters. They can be the people that live next door, may be in your family or even one of your friends. There are 3 main points to look for when dealing with a Sociopath.
- They are chronic liars
- They use self pity to get what they want
- They feel no remorse for their actions, and simply walk away when you get wise to them.
Jesus did not ask "
Am I the son of God?" Buddha didn't ask "
Am I the Enlightened One?"
Maybe we can take lessons on the effect that quiet confidence has on others. When one assumes they should be given respect amazingly others will do so. When giving advice, also, showing
confidence in ones voice tone is the same as saying "
I know what I am talking about." This has nothing to do with loudness or bragging.
The Doormat Asks ...The Princess Assumes
The doormat asks, "
Do you love me?" "Should I take full responsibility? Should I pay the bill again?" Inside they sizzle with self pity and resentment. In abusive relationships the doormat believes being
patient for bad behavior is the way one is loved
more. Those that hear the doormat's insecure voice think, "
Should we like you? Should we let you do it all? Why not let you pay the bill again?" "Why should we change for you?" The Princess never asks "
Do you love me?" but assumes she is loved. The princess never asks if she should do it all, but assumes the task at hand will be shared by all. The Princess speaks with assurance and composure, thereby commanding silently others treat her with respect. When the Princess assumes too much she becomes a rude Deva. The road to being overthrown will follow shortly.
Spiritual LeadersSpiritual leaders show kindness through their eyes, smile and works. Most are capable of throwing a tantrum if disrespected. An example would be Jesus throwing the chicken crates of the merchants selling for profit in the temple. A leader never asks of others if they believe them to be a leader. They assume leadership and are treated as one. This will change if they cause harm to their followers. The best of spiritual leaders respect that leadership must be earned through good works in order to stay in favor.
A FEW TIPS ON BEING A PRINCESS
- No matter whether at work or in a relationship, assume that your opinion should be respected.
- On a date if you are tired of getting stuck with the bill don't assume its your turn again. Smile kindly, fetch your wrap, look at the bill and say, "meet you at the entrance after you've paid."
- Remember, an insecure voice says "I probably am wrong and don't know what I'm talking about."
- Confidence and a lowered voice tone says "I deserve respect, thank you."
- Show gratitude, compliments and recognize a job well done in others.
- Reward with a hand squeeze, shoulder touch or a smile of confident respect for those that honor you. Respect their boundaries.
- Remember common sense must be used at all times.
LIKE ALPHA WOLVES, "ASSUMING" LEADERSHIP IS GIVEN LEADERSHIPOddly, those that assume they are leaders, are given leadership. This attitude is one that seems to be born into people, wolf packs and all animals from the start. BUT a few very simple behaviors can turn us from doormats to queens in our own rite.
You can see them secretly slipping into the chimes section, ringing them one by one…listening for just the right sound. Once you have found one, they are like potato chips. It's hard to stop after experiencing the effect chimes have on energy. Walk down any neighborhood on a beautiful breezy day and you will hear every ones chimes ringing one by one as you pass by. I have a theory. You can match the kind of Spirit a house contains by the type of wind chimes they own.
The bills may come and go, sickness or accidents, laughter or depression but the one thing one can count on is the sound of their beloved wind chimes. They never change their song. Like trumpets announcing your entrance they play just for you. To sit outside on a summer evening watching a storm in the distance, lightening flashing, the sound of wind chimes fluttering in the back ground is a religious experience.
PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE WIND CHIMES FOR SOUND
Connoisseurs of wind chimes demand harmony and are music loving people who get emotional by voice
tone. Meet the audio-feeling person. Spirit is defined by vibration, tone and rhythm. They hear messages beneath the "feeling' of the sound they experience. Some spend years
shopping for their "Totem chimes", listening intently for what they can't explain. . What they hear must speak to their soul and be inspiring. They are not impressed by grandiose size and a pretty display unless the sound matches. If they can’t close their eyes and soar with the sound of the chimes they're spirit wings feel clipped. You may very well find a Tibetan singing bowl somewhere in their domain.
PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE WIND CHIMES FOR BEAUTY
Dramatic sculptural chimes or stained glass
twinkling in the sun makes visual beauty a religious experience. The sound of their
wind chimes often is minor. For these people wind chimes must be a
sensory "package." Give them a stage and drama!
A Spiritual experience must delight with visual dramatic impact.
If a spiritual place of worship has a stage they will be there.
A person in white encircled with roses, a Church or Synagogue with powerful visual display inspires them with searing emotion.
PEOPLE MARRIED TO JUST ONE SET OF WIND CHIMES
Single chime lovers are careful not to be too noisy about spirit. They don’t question a need to believe in more then one way but they are firm in their spiritual view point.. These people are not ones to intrude. They worship, believe or pray quietly.
THE NEIGHBOR WITH MANY WIND CHIMES
Spirit is a banquet! These folks will listen and read on many ideas, beliefs and faiths. Many multi layers of chimes hang in their environment. Each chime has a voice and when all are heard in unison it can be a beautiful experience to the “multi-chime” person. Hands holding hands! The more the merrier! It is wise to remember when hanging chimes closely together it is important they all harmonize. The audio effect of many chimes ringing out of harmony together is like wearing colors and patterns that don't match. Choose your symphony carefully. Remember YOU are the conductor.
REMEMBER! YOUR NEIGHBOR MUST LISTEN TOO!
As hard as it is to believe, there are people who wince at the sound of children laughing. This will also be the person that wants to shoot your wind chimes down. To them the thought of you infringing your sound beliefs on them is as welcome as a Jehovah Witness preaching at their door. To the wind chime hater, you might as well be placing 10 ft stereo speakers in front of their house. Silence is golden and this too must be honored. This person believes in silence. And what you do for faith, chimes and spirituality they would rather not know about. Please sing your praise elsewhere. It
isn’t that they do not have spirit. Hearing about a neighbors view point
on ANYTHING is a personal choice and an assault to them if forced to
listen to someone babble . And that goes for people with intrusive chimes too!
OBSERVE THE WIND CHIMES As you walk within the neighborhood next time observe the wind chimes. Remember. They speak about the person within. They're not just a come and go fad. They are an audio spirit message.
Tarot can help you create the theme for a painting or sculpture, a topic for debate or build an essay. Create the outline plot of a book, a blog or start a school room discussion using Tarot Cards. There's nothing magical about it. Like ink blot tests, Tarot brings out the issues, dramas and spiritual questions within you, through symbol association. Tarot is the best tool for ending writers block or a creative dry spell there is! The possibilities in using Tarot as a teaching aid for creativity in class are wonderfully New Age. Here are some examples:
First of all, when using Tarot for stimulating Writers Block or a Creative Dry Spell, it does not matter whether you read Tarot Cards professionally or not. Find a deck of cards at Barnes & Nobles or order a deck of Tarot Cards through the Internet. Be sure and research the art work. If the style and colors of the pictures do not speak to you personally...keep on looking. Maybe you like Native Art, or perhaps you love happy pastel colors. Then again maybe you are totally into dark mysterious colors of the Renaissance. This will be your tool for creative development.
Your Deck of Tarot is your very special tool for creativity.
Use them like ink blot tests.
Use the pictures to stimulate your ideas, or look up their meanings in the book that comes with them.
Hold the cards in your hand. Get familiar with them.
Let your mind go numb. Try not to think. Just flow.
What thoughts come to you as you gaze into the pictures?
Shake hands with your creativity. Your ready to start making an outline or theme for your writing project or art work. Now shuffle your cards, or spread them out on a table. Choose 3 to 5 cards.LAY DOWN 3 TO 5 CARDS. GAZE IN TO THEM IN THE SAME DIRECTION AND ORDER YOU WOULD READ A BOOK. {LEFT TO RIGHT} 
IN THIS EXAMPLE YOU ARE CREATING AN OUT LINE FOR A BOOKWe will use the middle card as your theme. In this case it is about "choices. " This could be about choosing between life styles, spiritual beliefs, careers or even lovers. In this chapter we will focus on: What is it my character is trying to make a choice about in life? {What speaks to me?}
Example for creating a Book, Essay or Blog with Tarot
THEME {Middle Card}JANE IS IN LIMBO. SHE WAS DOING ALL SHE COULD TO PLEASE HER PARENTS EXPECTATIONS OF HER. HER TRUE PASSION WAS TO FOLLOW CRIMINAL LAW.
CARD ON FAR LEFT - Chapter 1
When Jane was little her parents taught her the importance of excelling in school and becoming a Dr. They constantly impressed on her what she needed. But to Jane it wasn't the surgery that intrigued her as much as how the accidents happened in the first place.
CARD ON FAR RIGHT - Theme of story
Jane decides to go against her parents and follow her passion. As the story blossoms she follows her own goal to become a great criminal investigator.
FOR EACH CHAPTER ANOTHER GROUP OF CARDS CAN BE LAID TO DEVELOP THE PLOT/ CHAPTER/ BLOG
Each row of cards can be a dynamic to develop your story.
Remember the lay out will be your own.
The symbolism will speak to YOU in your own creative way.
No more writers block.
Let your special cards speak to you like ink blot tests or look up the meanings.
Go with the flow and before long you will be in a creative tunnel vision.
HOW CAN THIS BE USED IN PAINTINGS OR SCULPTURES?
To develop a theme or essence for a painting lay one or more cards down and go within. Trust your emotions. Develop the essence within and create your painting or sculpture. For example only, we'll say this artist lay down the following lay out to come up with the theme of this painting.
Far Left - The Past - The artist sees the turmoil of his past
Middle Card - Present - Love, Sexuality, Bonding
Far Right - Freedom! A new beginning and transformation. Enlightenment!
This painting is used as an example only to show what the painters final creative expression, through Tarot, led them to.
Using Tarot in the Class Room for Creative Idea Stimulation
It would take a innovative and adventurous teacher, but even in the school room tarot could be passed out, one card per student. The creative art, writing or even debate project takes on a "mystical journey within" essence; not for fortune telling, but to create.
- Here the instructor can explain the impact of symbols and ink blots to the creative mind.
- Instructor {or a chosen student} can walk from student to student with a fanned deck of Tarot Cards.
- Each student picks 3 cards of their very own
- From each students 3 chosen cards, they are asked to build a story or art subject.
- Instructors choosing Tarot as a tool for story or art development in class will be guarantied a spot of New Age awe and popularity in the hearts of their class.
- Remember! Using Tarot for Creativity in Class should be emphasized on the same level as ink blot tests, symbolic mind association.

EVERY CROWD HAS ONE
Whether from the highest of echelon, or the red neck trailer park scene, each crowd has a Power Couple. Gay or straight they stride into a room and everyone melts. They are fully aware of their impact and power. The perfect party would not be complete with out their appearance. They probably own the equivalent of a castle and moat….even if its equivalent is the best trailer in the county. Together they overcome all the odds and are the theme of Harlequin romance novels, films and Valentines Day specials.
HOW DO POWER COUPLES MAKE IT LAST?
For all the fairy tale couples that have fallen apart, there are those that believe together they are a fortress and team. One mate is usually NOT weaker then the other. Here are rules that powerful couples that last share in common:
- Power couples know, that to maintain their status they have to be super achievers together. They are constantly building on their appeal together… not living off it.
- Power Couples that marry their equal challenge them and helps them evolve,
- The combined force of a Power Couple makes their individual personalities even greater as one, paying off commercially and publicity for what they stand for.
- Power couples that last understand each other’s needs and pressures much better than someone who isn’t in the same league.
- Power Couples tend to be calm in the eye of the storm, growing together from there similar ability to handle crisis smoothly.
- Power Couples that stay together usually come from the same back ground, whether rich or poor, and understand each others values and needs. Stories such as Princess Dianna would have us believe that marrying into wealth was easy, when in fact she felt as if she were on her own and never completely accepted.
HUMOR - WHO IS NOT A POWER COUPLE
{URBAN DICTIONARY}
A couple who has been together less then a week, acts as if they have been married for twenty years, to wit they never leave each other's side and have changed their Face book profile pictures to a photo of the other person.
CAN THE CINDERELLA FANTASY POWER COUPLE WORK?
As an Intuitive Psychic Counselor, one of my most common questions is from women searching for a rich powerful man. I found this exert from a book written in 2004 by Angela Wilder, “Powerful Mate Syndrome”
“For years I clung to the fantasy of being a helpless princess who would be taken care of by my omnipotent prince. That fantasy kept me from realizing that there is a world of difference between being cared for and being taken care of. A healthy marriage is all about being cared for, allowing each other room for independence, intellectual growth, and emotional expansion. Being taken care of, on the other hand, fosters dependency, intellectual atrophy, limited life experiences, and stifled creativity; it certainly does not cultivate self reliance. When we make our mates our gods we end up worshiping them and lose sight and sense of ourselves. In my marriage to James, I sacrificed my own career ambitions. I came to rely on my husband to validate me as a person. I stopped voicing my own opinions on things that mattered to both of us, and I did not believe that I had the right to "complain." In short, I became a glamorous appendage to a powerful man.”
Yes, Powerful couples can make it last! But before you don your super man cape, tights and Tierra for your first power man date, search carefully into your expectations, common interests and pit falls.
DEAR GOD WHY CAN'T HE GET OUT OF MY HEAD? You say no to
drugs; no to cigarettes. But no one ever says "Say No to someone in your
Head". It's as if you can feel their emotions. Maybe days pass, even
years, and there they are stuck in your dreams. Honey its time to say NO to
telepathic love.
What is Telepathic
Love?
Let’s say you wake up in the morning and all you can think
about is “them.” You go through your entire day feeling, smelling and
even hearing them whisper to you. You have now opened the portal to your
heart soul and mind for someone to live in a safe, relationship of telepathic
properties with no action.
One Day You Get Sick of It
You may wake up some mornings unexplainably rejuvenated, as
if you have had a great romp in bed. You have soul traveled with your
telepathic love. But where are they when you NEED them.. One day
you get tired and frustrated and decide you have had enough. No more.
Like magic, there they are on your phone or computer wishing
you well. Maybe even promising you they will be more consistent, and
spend time with you. “Lets go out one of these days” they say. You
are so excited. The portal to your heart soul and mind opens once
again. They slip in. And there you are cruising on Spirit Love for
another month or two.
CLOSE THE
PORTAL! LOCK IT! EVERY TIME YOU THINK ABOUT THEM
YOU ARE OPENING THE DOOR TO AN EASY WAY OUT OF AGGRESSIVE ACTION.
- I`m
not telling you stop thinking about the other because its good for you.
- I am
telling you every time you think about them you send vibrations and
signals for them to take the easy way out and have a relationship in
dreams and telepathic love instead of real action
AT NIGHT TIME IMAGINE A
LOCKED PORTAL DOOR TO YOUR HEART, SOUL AND MIND.
- You
may actually be exhausted when you wake up in the morning.
- The
reason you feel exhausted is because your spoiled telepathic lover has
been banging at your telepathic door to get in all night!
- Don’t
do it! Remember you are training your telepathic lover that
it’s the REAL
WAY or no way.
- Remember……..every
time you refuse to have a telepathic relationship with the “other” you are
training them to come to you in person if they truly need you in their
life.
REMEMBER LOCKING THE DOOR
TO A TELEPATHIC RELATIONSHIP IS LIKE "TOUGH LOVE." TAKE AWAY
WHAT IS MOST VALUED TO GET RESPONSIVE ACTION IN THE HERE AND NOW.
DOES THE
“OTHER” KNOW THEY ARE HAVING A TELEPATHIC RELATIONSHIP?
Often the “other” does not know they are dream traveling or
connecting spiritually. But they become unusually sure of
themselves that you are there, waiting patiently for them.
Consequently they will be in no hurry at all to take action.
When you answer their telepathic frequency call, {and
no, chances are they do not recognize they are doing this} a strange soul
merge happens. Night dreaming, the whispers of conversation, as
well as the feeling they have merged around you and you carry them where ever
you go is the sign that you have left your portal wide open!
THEY ONLY FEEL THE
DIFFERENCE WHEN YOU CLOSE THE PORTAL
They will only feel a difference when you close the portal
to your heart, soul and mind. A kind of panic will set in the
“other”. They will feel unexplainably they are losing
you. There will be no explanation why, and often they do not
understand why suddenly they aggressively need to reach you by phone, email or
a visit. You have closed off your heart. They feel
abandoned. And then…they take action.
“SEXUAL OBCESSION”
AND TELEPATHIC LOVE ARE VASTLY DIFFERENT.
"Obsessive Sexual Dreams", are
purely of the physical realm. There is little Spiritual Soaring in a
sexual fantasy other then an orgasm. It’s purely concentrated on physical
gratification.
"Telepathic love" is gentle
soaring, and entails heart, soul and mind. It is a Spiritual merge in
which you can see, feel and hear the “other” as one spiritual merge.
WARNING: If
the telepathic lover does not come in to your life in real action after
shutting your spiritual portal, trust they never will. This is your
proof of a quality love, or someone who is a waste of your time and effort
As an Intuitive Reader for over 40 yrs in the process of receiving my Master Tarot Certification, I suggest the following tips for finding a quality psychic adviser...
- What is your readers client feedback
like?
- How much private information
does your reader ask for BEFORE your reading? {it is hoped as little as
possible}
- Do they have only good
feedback? {watch out for sugar coated readings}
- Are they certified? How long have they been reading?
- It is wise to start with a request for a reading on your NOW ...before believing unproven facts right away. If the information you are hearing rings true, it is more likely your adviser will be accurate on your other questions as well.
- Remember your greatest tool
for judging accuracy is asking for a reading in the “Now” first. Only you
know your life. Right?
- Remember a Psychic is not the
same as a motivation speaker....whose job is to make you FEEL GOOD. If what you are hearing is too good to be true... it probably is.
- An intuitive worker's job is
to tell you what they see, good and bad, and pick up patterns they observe that may be disrupting your life.
- It is your right to receive a
professional polite reading at all times.
- It is vital you never be
hounded or have your privacy interrupted by psychics demanding you make
more appointments with them.
- Price is not an indication of quality; Client testimony is.
ALL PROFESSIONAL WORKERS HAVE THEIR OWN STYLE
Like all professional workers each reader has their own
style of reading.
- It is not expected that each Psychic be a carbon copy
of the other in a reading answer.
- It is hoped that each reader offer
various viewpoints to solve your problem, but
with the common denominator being, your better good.
Tarot Cards, a tool to access intuitive inner
voice, work much in the same way an Ink Blot test does. Each picture and
number wakes up an image or thought. Combining several cards together,
in what is called a "lay out," creates a living story about ones
personal journey. Tarot should never control ones actions, but allow a
reference point, or suggested strategy through which overwhelming
confusion can reach clarity. Always an Ali and never the boss, Tarot is a
means for Intuitive exercise and growth.
PAPER,CLAY,FABRIC, STONE..SymbolismThough
the history of Tarot is ancient, in them selves, Tarot cards whether
created on paper, stone, clay or fabric are all about Symbolism. Tarot
Cards are a Tool to wake up "INTUITION," which is a gift that all
mammals own to aid in survival through nature and war. Used with skill,
Tarot gives strategy, emotional explanation and a plan. All final action
must come from the attitude of free will and common sense. A psychic
reader is only a guide.
TAROT FOR WRITING, COUNSELING, STRATEGYAuthors
such as Steven King and John Steinbeck have used Tarot to create story
plots for writing an out line of their books. Counselors have utilized
Tarot cards through client hands on use, as picture symbolism to
represent feelings. Many Psychic readers are like marathon runners that
excel in heightened intuition. Tarot cards aid in cutting to the chase
quickly and allow detailed sessions to get to the heart of the emotional
matter so that healing strategy can begin.
WHY CERTIFY?For those that have been readers for a long time, it becomes clear that one must have something to offer that stands out amongst the multitude of intuitive workers in the field now.
- There is no denying experience and a portfolio of client testimony is valuable.
- Accuracy and people skills shine even brighter.
- Perhaps you are longing for a stronger upscale educated clientele and the love readings are getting a bit much. You would like more variety.
- Often more then not a more educated client goes hand in hand with a wider variety of subject matter to read on. {Although we all cry for love, rich or poor.}
- Spirituality is widely accepted by everyone now. More educated clients are seeking reputable and ethical readers.
- Drs, Lawyers, Bankers and Wall Street workers want proof that their reader is as certifiable as they have taken the time to be.
- We too choose licensed professionals for our medical, judicial and and tax problems because it makes us feel more CONFIDENT.
- Certifying proves that a reader "cares" about the ethics and procedure of reading and follows a code as a licensed light worker to be respected by all.

A news flash reads "Bones found on island might be Amelia Earnhart's." A psychic reading confirms Yes and that her cast away time on the island may have been her greatest true adventure of survival, and what her flying exploits had been intuitively preparing her for from the start.
Was Nikumaroro Island, about 1,800 miles south of Hawaii, where Amelia died a cast away?
Yes. Amelia’s addiction to sacrifice to the public eye is what killed her. She did not mind, at first, the islands test of her endurance. She was a tom boy, fire maker and a "Survival Island" contestant before it's time. In the early days of the wreck, she is seen fantasizing herself in a "Swiss Family Robinson" story plot. She believed she would be saved just as all great adventure story characters do. She did a lot of Zen contemplation on the island and had she lived, the island would have been Amelia’s 40 days and 40 nights of the wilderness. She would have come back a completely changed person.
Did Amelia die alone with the sand crabs?
Yes. The crabs at first were her audience and she would even speak to them. The crabs were relentless and always around her watching. She had a love hate for them. When her spirits were completely down, the crabs were her only companionship. In the end, as if sentenced to die at the inquisition, the crabs quietly and efficiently were Amelia’s pall bearers as they took her body parts to the sea and their homes.
Did the man she was with survive the crash? No. Unhappily and unfairly, the man died right away. His dream was Amelia’s fame and the coat tails he hung on to. She could not commit to him in the end. In the name of survival, Amelia abandoned him an unhappy man.
"What were her last moments like? What was she doing? What happened?"
Amelia sat peacefully watching the water, completely balanced, as if she had come upon a great big realization.
The scales were balanced now. The power she held before the plane wreck on the island was the price she paid for sacrifice to fame, fortune and worship of the public eye. The TRUE ADVENTURE was survival on the island. She died living an adventure. Her captive audience, the crabs, never left her side. They consumed her in the end.
What was she doing?
Every moment was a struggle for Amelia. To eat and catch drinking water took strategy and patience. She had neither. She learned how to catch and eat what consumed her in the end. It was a balanced existence of daily mundane struggle and inner contemplation as she realized the irony of her final adventure. Her brilliant mind kept her from going crazy.
She was a gentle soul. Delicate and small boned she adapted well to the tasks of catching fish, building fires, and in her mind imagined the Goddess she hoped to be for the public eye, was who she actually was for the true grit of survival on the island.. She did a lot of thinking. Her small body became pathetically thin. But this was not what killed her. She did not die of starvation.
In all actuality Amelia was happy with her simple tried adventure to death. It was what she was running from, flying from and in escape from to begin with. She realized the island always had been her final test, the adventure she had been working up to. She lay remnants of broken make up jars and shells in positions she hoped would be found later for a mysterious and intriguing archeology find, a tribute to her once civil life.
