A newly discovered fear leads to new questions.

Several years ago when I had a practice as a Spiritual Director, I was asked, “How much self examination does someone have to do? When does it end?” I really didn’t have a good answer for him.

Since realizing I have the ability to communicate with those on the “Other Side,” I’ve learned that this life is like being in school. We’re here to learn about love. It’s a journey that we do both here and continues after we pass away.

For me, the latest lesson is that I fear that nothing in my life is going to change. Since what we fear is an indication of what we want, what this suggests is that one of my unconscious programs is that I don’t want anything in my life to change! Now, that is scary.

I’m no different than anyone else. I don’t like change. But if nothing changes, there is no way I’m going to get the sort of results I want.

So now I’m asking myself questions such as, “Why am I allowing myself to be more successful than I ever dreamed?”

“Why is it so exciting for me to act on my inspirations, and achieve my goals?”

“Why are my plans so achievable, and so full of possibilities?”

“Why do I have such a willingness to succeed?”

“Why am I so open and receptive to being successful?”

I’m asking these question two to four times a day. The purpose  is not to answer them myself, but to allow God to answer them for me in the form of “sacred signs.” In the meantime, I’m going to act as if this were already true for me, already part of my belief system.

I ask for a “sacred sign,” and I receive one!

I was going to blog about this yesterday, but …. Anyway, I’ll just combine what I was going to write about yesterday, and what I want to talk about today in this post.

After making the decision to be “renowned” a couple of days ago, yesterday I asked God for a sign that this was the next step. When I recommend this to my clients and friends, I tell them to ask for simple things, like a feather, a penny, or some other coin. I also them them to look for other signs. For instance, if someone is considering buying a new car, and they notice a number of car commercials on tv, and a flyer from a dealership comes in the mail that day or the next offering new car financing at a low interest; well, you get the idea.

So as I was saying, yesterday, I asked God for a sign, but didn’t ask for anything specific. Then sometime in the afternoon I received a phone call from a friend of mine, Gina Alianello. She received a medium discernment from me a couple of years ago, and since then has made it her personal mission to make me “famous.”

Gina called to tell me that the owner of Achieve Radio, an internet radio station told her that he tried to find my website but wasn’t able to pull it up. She tried to pull it up and when she couldn’t she called me on my cell to make sure I was still around! I tried to pull up my website, and when I couldn’t I panicked.

To make a long story short, I ended up calling Miguel Tarango, one of the owners of The Mac Spa. He came over to my home and rectified the glitch with my computer.

This morning I received a call from Skye Mac Kenna, who books guests for one of the radio shows, “Super Psychic Radio,” with Bill Schreiner. I did a short Clairvoyant reading for Skye and now I’m going to be a guest of the show Saturday, October 17th, from 5 – 7 pm PST!  I’m really excited about this development!

Choosing to live from my passion, not my fears.

All day long today I’ve been thinking that I need to become clear about what I want. I need to stop procrastinating and decide to live my life from my truth, instead of my fears.

The word “decision” comes from two Latin words, “de cadre,” or “to make dead.” Making a decision means that you’re killing off other options. Personally, I have a tougher time with that than I care to admit. “If I choose this, how do I know something better won’t come along?” is one of my subconscious programs. It’s a question that keeps me stuck.

So the question I’ve been asking all day today is, “How may I serve and change the world?”  The answer came when I spent some time with my new neighbors.

I found out earlier today that they get regularly get together to bbq, talk and laugh. I loved it because it reminded me of my own culture. Ironically, even though I come from an island that’s very social, I’m not. It takes a lot out of me. Still, I wanted to step out of my boundaries, so I joined them.

When I was asked what I do for a living, people thought it was interesting and the typical “Can you tell me if I’m going to win the lottery?” questions were asked. But then someone asked me the question that was the answer to the question I’ve been asking today  - “Are you renowned?”

The truth of the matter is that just because someone is a famous psychic, it doesn’t mean that they’re a great reader, or even a good one. To quote Bill Schreiner of Achieve Radio, ”Another thing I’ve learned, is that famous is NOT an indication that an intuitive is highly skilled at their art. That is only an indication of a skilled publicist. There are a few very famous readers that are, in a word, lousy. Then again, there are a few famous readers who are among the best in the world. … But the point here is that there are readers no one has ever heard of that are certainly world class ….”

Well, I’ve been called a “world class psychic” but, at the risk of repeating myself, I’ve chosen to give in to my greatest fear and fly under the radar. No more. I’m now giving into my passion and choosing to become a “renowned” psychic.

I’ve been examining my motives to make sure it’s not just an ego trip. It’s not. To me it’s the best way I can serve, and change, the world.

Turning criticism into a blessing.

A young man came to see me a few days ago for a Clairvoyant session. Before we got started I told him that I could tell from his energy that he was a skeptic. He admitted that I was right, but he said he was going to keep an open mind throughout the session. After all, his wife had seen me twice before, once when she was a month pregnant and not showing. She became a believer in me when I mentioned to her that at one point she looked, to me, for about three seconds, as though she were nine months pregnant!

When she came to see me again, she was definitely showing as at that time she was eight months pregnant. She told me she was wondering if there was anything to be worried about. I closed my eyes for a moment (she told me this, I don’t remember) and said that there will be a scare but not to worry because everything will be fine.

When she started to deliver, the baby’s umbilical cord started to come out first, so the doctors did an emergency c-section. I was elated to meet their beautiful two month old daughter before the session.

During our time together Aaron (not his real name) did a lot of hard work looking at himself. He’s using what he learned to transform his life. I received a message from him thanking me for the session saying he hadn’t felt that close to God in years. This was after he called me an “asshole” a couple of times (yes, really). I laughed both times (yes, really).

Contrast that with his mother in law who flew in from California to see me about 6 months ago. After her session with me, she walked out of my house angry! According to Aaron and his wife, she admits that I was on the money, yet she’s still complaining about what was uncovered about her “false self.” I thought it was funny that she tells people about me to this day saying that I’m impressive, but she didn’t like what I had to say. According to Aaron and his wife all of her friends say to her, “Well, he’s telling you the truth!”

During my Clairvoyant sessions my first task is to see people the way God sees people – perfect. From that point on, I’m the mouthpiece of the Source of all that is, and nothing more. I don’t judge, and I don’t criticize. If people think I am doing that, I tell them to see the criticism as a blessing – that way it doesn’t hurt as much.

My ideal client is someone who comes to me to see why their life isn’t working and how they’re responsible. When they’re done judging me for having the nerve to say what I say to them, they pick out the kernels of truth, and go to work.

Truthfully, you do have to pay for my time to get similar information. Just ask people in your life – especially the one’s you don’t like – they’ll be happy to do it for free. And they don’t have to be psychic to know your truth!

Sealing my energy leaks.

I’ve come to the realization that I’m “leaking” a lot of energy. I’ve done this in order to be “lovable.” I’m getting over it.

I’m confronting the subconscious programs that are running my life, one by one. The simplest way for me to do this is to determine whether they are allowing me to live a life I love, or simply confirming my worst fears.

My fear of annihilation took many forms. One of them was my fear of abandonment. Another was my belief I’m unlovable. Another was my fear of speaking my truth. I carry a lot of excess weight around my middle in an unconscious attempt to block the energy of others from pouring into me (this is true of a lot of psychics).

In my work, I sometimes give a “hand out” in addition to giving a “hand up.” I do this by doing free readings, and not charging for all of my time. The worst part is that I end up resenting my client, and myself, for doing so.

A few months ago a woman who came to see me called me and asked me if I could help her locate her passport. I told her where to find it, and didn’t hear back from her. A couple of weeks ago I was meeting with some friends when a man came up to me saying he wanted to thank me for helping him find his passport! It turns out the woman who called me was his ex-wife. I still wonder why she didn’t call me to tell me she found the passport where I told her it would be. If I hadn’t he wouldn’t have been able to make his flight.

There’s a term for this sort of behavior on my part. It’s called, “Martyrdom.”

The best way to help myself, and others is for me to start practicing the “I don’t know” exercise. Whenever someone asks for help with their problems my answer is going to be, “You might want to make an appointment with me for the answer. Right now I don’t know how to help you.”

Not doing this will simply lead to a lot of continuing resentment on my part. Not the best kind of energy to have when you do the work I do.

I can’t imagine my neediness was ever attractive to anyone, and it’s no longer an attractive to me as a way of living my life.

Facing my greatest fear transforms my life.

When I’m working with someone the session is typically a combination of Clairvoyance and Spiritual Direction; after all the word “psychic” comes from the Latin word “psyche” which means “soul.”

During our time together my goals are to help people develop a deep understanding of how they’ve created the life you have… and how to easily change it into the life they truly want… One of the ways I do that is to ask, “What is your greatest fear?” or “What’s the worst thing you could ever hear someone say about you?”

Why?

Because what we fear the most most is what we want the most.

Today I faced, and admitted my greatest fear – being annihilated. When I realized that, my life made sense. I understood why I’ve flown under the radar for so long; why I’ve minimized my gifts, myself, and the good I do and have done through my work. I’ve been destroying myself. So in that way, I’ve been successful.

The opposite of fear is love. Today I started taking steps toward creating a life that I love, instead of living in such a way that avoids what I fear. One that will make me more visible and vulnerable. I gathered notes to write a book.

Doing otherwise would justify people saying about me the worst thing I could hear – that I’m a fraud.

Because our greatest fear is usually deeply ingrained within us, we usually can’t uncover it alone. I had help discovering this truth about myself. If you’d like help discovering what you fear the most, I can help you.

Uncovering unconscious beliefs

A stressful incident happened today. It wasn’t the first time it happened. In fact, it’s a pattern. And every time it happens I swear it’ll be the last time. So when it happened again today, I finally asked myself, “Why does this keep happening to me?”

That question, I realized, not only revealed the answer, but the problem as well. The reason it keeps happening is because of a belief I hold around it.

It occurred to me that asking why what was happening keeps happening, assures it’s reoccurrence in my life. Why? Because our minds are programmed to look for answers to our questions. When we receive the same answer over and over again, it’s revealing an unconscious belief.

So I looked at the situation, turned it around 180º and decided to start asking why this was now true for me. Now, my mind is looking for different answers which will eventually become a new belief, insuring that what I now want to happen, sooner or later, will be a new truth which guides my life.

“This is me, to a T!”

I am currently devouring a book entitled, “The Passion Principle,” by Donna Le Blanc, M. Ed. I love this book! It has helped me find self acceptance, and a way to transform my life.

In this book she talks about a number of “passion signatures.” I happen to be what she refers to as a “combo platter,” but she also says it’s rare that people are “purists.” My passion signature is “Creator/Warrior/Prophet.” I kept saying to myself, “Wow, this fits me to a T!” She not only described my behaviors, but why I do the things I do.

Now that I know this, I am much more at peace with myself. Better still, she gives ways to integrate these signatures so that they work for me, instead of against me.

Thank you, Ms. Le Blanc; from the bottom of my heart, thank you. Here’s a link to her site, http://www.thepassionprinciple.com

“Have Faith”

I’m always saying that life isn’t supposed to hurt; and my life doesn’t. But more and more I’m understanding that there’s a huge difference between a life repaired and a life well lived. That understanding has made me feel really restless lately.

When I first discovered blogging a year and a half ago I couldn’t decide what to write about, and that was the subject of my first blog post. Then I was walking through the parking lot of a shopping center I was at and I saw a bumper sticker that said, “I’d rather be on stage.” That statement has been my truth ever since I was a child. I feel at home on stage.

Now, a year and a half has gone by …. I’m no closer to being on stage now than I was back then.

I have received a lot of healing since then though. So what’s the problem?

There’s something to be said for venting, I guess. It’s been a couple of hours since writing the above, and I now have a direction to take. Honestly, it’s not what I thought it would be, but I’m trusting that the inspiration I’ve received is right. Right now, I’ve got to trust.

I just pulled a card from an oracle deck I just bought, “Soul Lessons and Soul Purpose.” I was created by Sonia Choquette. I asked what I need to do to make my goal of writing a book a reality, and the card I pulled said, “Have Faith.”

A sacred sign serves as a confirmation, but of what?

Last night I was sleeping and dreaming of Wayne Dyer of all people. At least that’s the thought that went through my mind when I woke up. I was able to get back to sleep, and I dreamt about Dyer again before waking up. This happened a third time, all in the space of 35 minutes. When I noticed the time, 1:25 am, it hit me. I had set the DVER to record “Cross Country with Medium John Edward.”

About 5 weeks ago I got a sacred sign that I’m supposed to be focusing on my work as a Medium. Since Clairvoyant work has been my bread and butter for the past year, I wasn’t sure what that meant, but I’ve been thinking about the sign a lot lately.

Last night, was for me, another sign. I’m sure my “angels” were telling me to take notice. When I fell back asleep, they’d wake me up again, and again, and again; only letting me go back to sleep when I realized that “Cross Country” was on the television.

I think that we all get these “sacred signs,” but tend to ignore them. Well, I’m not ignoring this one. In fact, I’m watching the recording now. I’m still wondering about the connection with Dyer though!
