Manifesting Isn’t Wish Fulfillment

So much has been written about manifesting.  I don’t usually weigh in because people have become habituated to thinking that it’s about thinking and control.  You are controlling your destiny, the world around you, just by your thoughts.  Which just makes my mind boggle.  Because if our thoughts manifested things so easily then children’s lives…

There is a Roadmap for your Life

The last section of all soul books is the Life Roadmap.  It works with the Embodied Life Record and the Relationship Map to gather all the information about that current life and plot out all the opportunities available, from conception to the grave, as “if/then” statements, meaning that “if” this choice is made “then” this…

Parental Paradigms

Parents are human beings.  Most adults realize that at some point.  Usually it comes to us in our 30’s, although life circumstances might bring that point home much earlier, for better or worse.  Parents have their own perspectives, their own histories, their own baggage, their own hopes and dreams and aspirations. All of which inform…

Believe Them

I know it may be mind boggling, but relationships require relating.  Which means actually paying attention to the other person.  Not stalking, not clinging, not co-dependenting, but actually paying attention to them.  Listening to what they are saying and actually hearing them.  Talking to them, not at them, and inviting them into your life, not…

All I Can Change Is Me

Due to language constructs and concepts and how our brains create meaning of our experiences of the world around us, we tend to talk and even think in black and white extremist symbols.  We use words like ‘everything’, ‘nothing’, ‘always’, ‘never’ as if they actually exist while at the same time we can cite a…

The Akashics and the Pacific Ocean

A client came to me with a question about something a psychic had told them.  They said the information came from the Akashics and so it must be true, but it didn’t seem true, didn’t match the reality of the situation, and just plain ole didn’t make sense.  So they wanted to know what I…

Our Truth Isn’t Physics

Part of the meaning and structure we make from the input we get is informed by our experiences.  From the time we are born we are gathering data and spinning a life out of it.  And this is a good thing otherwise our life would become a weird and very painful version of Ground Hog’s…

Spiritual Path

When we talk about things, a lot of times we talk in black and white examples, in extremes, using these as symbols for the concepts we are trying to convey.  Like all politicians are corrupt and all aid organizations are altruistic and successful and all scientists are single-minded and socially inept.  These are generalizations and…

What is Shamanism?

I have a strongly negative reaction to the terms ‘shaman’ and ‘shamanism’ as do most Native Americans.  And there are several reasons for that.  The most general is that almost 100% of people who are claiming to be shamans are just trying to get money from people.  They may or may not have any gifts…

Random Happenings or Skill Building?

A common question I get asked by clients is “Why did X period of my life have to happen?”  It’s usually something that took 5/10/20 years, seems from the perspective of cultural norms to have been a failure to achieve the standard goal, and to have nothing to do with the current phase of life…
