Excuse me while I blow off a little steam.

.
One of the puzzles of my life is why people will go to clairvoyants, and/or tarot readers, for readings when they don't want to hear what the person has to say. Oh, I am not talking about you personally, I know you won't argue with me when I say something you don't want to hear. You won't explain to me how I am wrong about so-and-so whom you are madly in love with - because she, or he, is wonderful and truthful, and only lies to other people. Hmm.. no, no, you will hang on my every word, and trust everything I say .. and I will be wondering exactly what it is you think I said, because obviously you are not listening to any of it.

Ok, so I am ranting. I love doing readings for people. I love watching their lives falling into those patterns that they have been creating for themselves, over such a long time. I love seeing them heal from old fears and new ones. I love watching them change their minds, their tunes, and their attitudes. It is one of life's pleasures when people get back to me and say 'it happened .. it really happened'. Yes, it happened, angel, just the way you wanted it to. Or didn't want it to, some of the time.

The future is open to interpretation, just as we reinterpret the past to fit how we want to feel about ourselves. The future appears, for me, in a series of stepping stones based on the choices we make today. Each step can lead to many different possibilities, none of them absolutely fixed. We can choose to change, our hearts, our minds, our thoughts, our feelings, and in doing so change our lives.

So when you say to me "oh no, you are wrong, its not like that at all", you are already changing your future away from what you asked me to review for you. Why do you come to me if you only want me to tell you what you want to hear? Why don't you just go back to daydreaming, or fantasizing? Yes, with our thoughts we do make things happen, but only for ourselves. If you are trying to make someone else do what you want, or be what you want, it is their choices involved, not yours. You can dream the person in your head, but if they are living already they will not fill the shoes you want them to wear. I know this from experience, I've been heart-broken too.

Why do people come to us for readings - because they are doubting their own inner instincts and want to be told that those instincts (that say this is not a wise choice) are wrong. It is about trusting yourself. It is so easy to place responsibility for your actions on others, to not pick up the mantle of 'trust' and wear it .. because sometimes it can be heavy, and sometimes it can hurt. If I say something will happen, in the way you seem to want me to, then you can be mad at me when it doesn't work out, rather than blaming yourself for not trusting your first instincts that said 'don't go there', 'don't do that', 'you know it is not true'.

I am sorry you are hurt because of what I told you. I am also sorry, in a way, that I cannot tell you only what you want to hear. I have my ethics too. I will tell you the future as I see it, and you will continue to argue - for you want things to be the way you want them. Well, if you want that so much why do you not trust yourself and not waste your time with me?

Follow your heart, and trust your instincts .. that inner feeling is your guides and angels talking to you .. saying 'we love you no matter what'. If we all did that then we would all be clairvoyant .. and know the truth of the song of our hearts.

The Last Song

What is the last song you want to be heard singing? The one that expresses the joy in your heart, or the one that sings of your sorrow? I often get 'brain-runners', you know - when the music won't go away, and that same song, or track of thought, goes around and around until you get very tired of it, and are prepared to do pretty much anything to 'change tune'.

Does it really matter if you sing out of tune? You might not do well in a band, but in a choir of like-minded people, you could add a 'happy noise', just as everyone else is doing as they think their daily thoughts, and express their feelings through their own personal music and words. Even a bumble bee makes music that pleases 'Spirit', for it is expressing its true self through the waves of energy that it produces with each movement. And that is what we do - express the waves of our true selves through our thoughts, feelings and actions.

When was the last time you asked for help from 'upstairs' for a problem? Do you do it regularly - or is it the last place you would look for help on any problem? Making it the 'first' place can be a useful solution - you will be amazed with the number of opportunities that come from asking for help.

Now if you are a formal person, you can try a little prayer. You know the type - getting down on your knees and 'begging' for it - but if you want to change the 'tune' a little, how about standing in the sunshine, or the rain, and just directing your thoughts 'upwards' or 'outwards' wherever you think God/Spirit might be. You'll find an aspect of your angels and guides beside you at all times, listening and waiting to help with requests. When you decide to connect to them, to work with them and to ask for help, they leap willingly into every challenge and act with Joy - a little of which will rub off on you, if you allow it.

I was going to write to you about the power of prayer to change our lives, but I think I really should be writing about dancing. Dancing is not that formal stuff we do in ballroom, or the gyrating that our kids get up to. It is the movement we make in our daily lives that leads to all our experiences. We dance, or our energy does, up and down through our chakras, threading in and out through our middles, and weaving patterns in the air that we can 'read' and sense - our auric fields. When these get clogged or cloudy, we feel clogged and cloudy. A little gentle raking (running your fingers down the energy about 3 inches away from your body, back, front, above your head and beneath your feet) can help alleviate the problem, but not remove it entirely, for it is created by our thoughts and emotions, and needs a little more focussed cleaning from time to time. When your energy is clogged, and bogged and you feel down and out, then a more serious healing might be necessary, but a little Reiki once in a while is enough to keep the energy moving.

Why do I talk about Reiki and auras - because they, too, produce their own music, and it is this music that can make your heart dance, and bring Joy back into your step. When you are feeling sick you go to a doctor, and that can be very wise, but it can be equally wise to add a touch of Spiritual Healing to your choices - for it works on the mind, body and Spiritual levels of each person, and that can help, no matter what the problems may be.

Back to dancing, back to music - when was the last time you sang in the shower? When was the last time you imagined that the water was 'washing through you', rather than over you. Use your imagination - allow the water to wash 'through your energy' and lighten the load you carry. Do this each morning and by the end of the week, you might find you feel a little lighter. Take a moment to do this when you wash your hair - it won't take any more time than that normal activity - but choose to do the cleansing daily - you want to feel that full benefit. When you are ready change happens, and you find yourself feeling lighter and brighter. It is really up to you.

Let your last song be the first song of each morning, giving thanks and glory to Spirit for your life, every moment of it.

Love & Light,
