Intuition and the Quest For Knowledge

Intuition, Knowledge, Learn To Be Psychic, Quest May 18th, 2008

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

    The 21st century is marked by the rise of the internet and growing concerns about the environment. Civilization is moving forward with leaps and bounds and so is our capacity to learn about the intuitive nature locked inside each of us.

    As reflected in art, literature and philosophy life is an epic journey. It is a continuous pursuit of answers in which each of us is searching for the key of transformation. Surprisingly the last place we seek is the very place our journey begins and that is within.

    Unfortunately, the inward quest has been shunned while intuitive guides and psychics have been forced to dwell on the fringes of society. Just the classification “paranormal” and “supernatural” indicate the ultimate attitude society has of intuition and the knowledge that it encompasses. As the knowledge of the psychic grows society must acknowledge its presence.

    According to Laura Day in her book “Practical Intuition” the human race has lost the connection with its natural instincts and is thus cut off from the answers within.

    “As creatures increasingly cut off from our environment by high technology,” she said. “We have lost touch with our senses as well as our intuition.”

    It is time for intuition and psychic abilities to join the scientific realms and become a recognized part of the everyday.

            Psychic activities are closely linked to self awareness. Because of this there is no better field to incorporate the psychic than in psychology. As a field psychology has ignored these natural abilities in an effort to gain credibility. However, consciousness is becoming a recognizably credible phenomenon.  And the library of psychic case studies is overflowing with accounts that stand as testimony to the potential of this field.

    As scientists make honest strides to define the human consciousness they progress closer to the human abilities toward intuition and the “gift” of psychic abilities. As part of the initiative to encourage these studies scientists are becoming familiar with everything from near death experiences, lucid dreaming and the philosophies of the mind to meditation and various philosophical religions such as shamanism and Taoism.

    These “gifts” or sensitive talents are not negative as society may imply. The ability toward perception is often associated with healing arts as well as a reverence toward the earth and natural cycles of life. To abolish such practices would only lead to alienation of the self.

    In addition to scientific studies there is a need for a unified front against negativity associated with the public’s view of psychic research. Due to the sensitive nature of all things psychic negativity can have a detrimental affect. The process of bringing psychic skills mainstream is in its infancy and as part of that process stand up against negativity and ill will.

Psychic Dreams

Learn To Be Psychic, Psychic Dreams May 14th, 2008

            A dream is defined as a series of thoughts, images or emotions that occur during sleep. There are several stages of sleep including the onset of sleep in which the body temperature drops, the heart rate and breathing regulate and one becomes disassociated from their surroundings. However even in the deepest slumbers our brains are still active and processing information.

            Scientists have studied dreams and the act of dreaming in many ways. And because each person’s dreams are completely unique understanding them is an important element in gaining self awareness and elevated consciousness.

            Dreams unify the mind, body and spirit by allowing the conscious and unconscious aspects of our mind and emotions to mingle and have free roam. As a result we are at liberty to acknowledge emotions and experiences that otherwise may be too intense for us to handle. Due to the powerfully intuitive nature of dreams many artists have sought their meaning for inspiration and the ancient Greeks and Romans hired professional interpreters to help explain their dreams which guided them and helped them make decisions.

            Dreams can be more than a self awareness tool. These nightly sojourns from reality also offer vision and insight into events of the past as well as the future. For many the realm of psychic abilities lies within the world of dreams.

            Premonition during dreams is a common experience. However, the problem is that we seldom remember them. Through proper relaxation and programming you can train your self to remember your dreams.

            There are many types of psychic activity that occurs during sleep. One psychic activity, astral projection, involves freeing the spirit of the body and roaming at will. For many it would be impossible to leave the body during conscious and waking time but within the security of the dream world we are already separated from our surrounding and therefore more susceptible to wondering outside our bodies.

            Accounts of mutual dreaming have also occurred. This entails two people meeting within a dream setting and engaging each other. This is a mutual experience for both parties. However, each individual will awaken alone. This experience may be hard to identify unless you know the other person enough to discuss the experience while awake. Otherwise it may resemble an ordinary dream.

            One type of paranormal dream activity that is far from ordinary is the lucid dream. This occurs when you are conscious of dreaming. Have you ever been in the midst of a dream and actually realized you were dreaming without waking up? This is a lucid dream. Lucid dreaming is an extremely effective tool in developing self awareness because once realized the dreamer can guide themselves through the world of slumber.

The Divine Feminine

Divine Feminine, Learn To Be Psychic May 10th, 2008

If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to His face
If you were faced with Him in all His glory”

 

            Singer and song writer Joan Osborne released this popular American song in 1995. As this song title implies the audience is asked to contemplate what it would be like if God was “one of us.” The question remains, what if God is just an average person, would this God necessarily be male. And does having a male dominated religion affected society and its people’s sense of trust and belonging? This question surfaces in an age where faith is being lost and loneliness prevails.

            Contemporary Christian beliefs dictate that the face of God is of a man. But religious beliefs that pre-date Christianity bring forth the female image of the great goddess or the divine feminine. The feminine presence can be found in some form in all religions just as her male counterpart. Another universal element is that the feminine presence generally encompasses all that is natural and earthy as well as instinctual. When it comes to wounds that strike the soul we need a mother for guidance and when nature has taken its course it is mother to whom we return. 

            The Divine Feminine goes by many names including the Great Goddess of Western Paganism, the Blessed Mother in Christianity and Mother Earth. The image of this Great Mother or Divine Feminine has been revered for centuries before Christianity as the fertile womb which gave birth to everything. Today that womb is still considered to be the place of intuition, revelation and communication with the unseen.

            According to Anne Baring’s book “The Divine Feminine”, the Great Mother was the embodiment of the sky, earth and underworld. “She was the great pulse of life reflected in the rhythm of the moon, the sun, the plants, trees, animals and human beings,” she states. “All these were her children and she was the numinous presence within her manifest forms, continually regenerating them in a cyclical process that was without beginning and without end.” From this description it becomes clear that the Divine Feminine is symbolic of the natural courses of life as well as the intuition and divine presence associated with faith.

            The Divine Feminine is resurfacing in our culture as the bearer of faith and solace. In a increasingly terrifying world it is the soothing grace of a mother that we seek. “With the love of the mother and trust in her presence, the child grows in strength and confidence and delight in itself and in life,” Baring said. “Its primary response is trust.” And as we learn to trust our instincts we regain the relationship with a consciousness that has been largely ignored.

Chakras

Chakras, Learn To Be Psychic May 6th, 2008

            Merriam Webster’s dictionary defines chakras as “any of several points of physical or spiritual energy in the body according to yoga philosophy. The word chakra literally means wheel in Sanskrit and can be traced back to the late 1800’s.

            What Merriam Webster does not state is that there are seven chakras and they are located parallel to the spine. These pinpoints of energy command the mental properties and impact our attitudes about life. They range from the root chakra which is the grounding force that allows the physical self to claim its territory to the crown chakra which is the awareness force that allows the self to be spiritually aware of the world. In order for these different energies to be influential they must be considered “open” or active. If one chakra is not active then the others ones will often compensate for the missing energy and become “overactive.” Balancing the chakras is the ideal way to bring harmony into your being.

            The first chakra is the root chakra. This chakra is often associated with the color red and is located at the base of the spine. As indicated from its location this chakra is influential in grounding and allowing the physical self to feel “at home.” This chakra dictates ones ability to be welcome and belong to any given situation. It dictates self preservation and the will to live. When this chakra is open you will feel secure in the world. This is also the most obvious starting point to begin to open the chakras. In order to open a chakra it is important to feel welcome in the word.

            The next chakra is the Sacral. Associated with the vibrant shade of orange this energy source commands feelings and sexuality. Located below the belly button the sacral stimulates creative life forces. This chakra governs the reproductive system as well as the digestive system and is known as a health related energy center. This energy source also lends fluidity and grace to our lives as it allows us to connect with others through desires, sensation and movement.

            Next is the Solar Plexus or the power spot.  This chakra is located behind the stomach and below the breastbone. Associated with the color yellow this area is about asserting yourself in a group. When this chakra is open and active you will confident in groups and have positive self-esteem. However, indecisive and passive behavior often indicates a closed Solar Plexus. Domineering and aggressive behavior could indicate an over-active Solar Plexus.

            The fourth chakra is aptly named the Heart. Located in the center of the chest this chakra is associated with the color green. It commands love, hope and compassion. An active and vital Heart chakras allows us to lve deeply and feel compassion for others. As the center chakra is a series of seven it also allows use to balance opposites such as male and female or black and white.

            Chakra five is know as the Throat. Located at the throat it is therefore related to communication. The Throat is associated with the color blue and has much to do with we relate to the world through sound.

            After the Throat comes the Third Eye. This chakra is located in the middle of the forehead and is often depicted with the color purple. It represents seeing in both the physical and non-physical realms. When open and functioning properly this chakra allows us to understand both the world around us and our place among it.

            The last chakra is one associated with much idealism. It is the crown and commands consciousness. This chakra is what connects us with knowledge of the world beyond the physical sense. When cultivated properly this chakra, located at the top of the head, brings us wisdom and spiritual connection.

The Six Sense

Learn To Be Psychic, Six Sense May 2nd, 2008

            The Sixth Sense is more than a movie written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Extrasensory perception or ESP refers to sensory information received without the aid of the other five senses, sight, scent, touch, taste or smell.

            In many ways ESP is just like the other senses. But it does not have a physical place of origin and it does not depend on the other senses in any way. ESP is a natural ability that includes intuition and meditation to sense information that may not otherwise be obvious.

            Although society embraces diversity the psychic is often shunned. Today most cities boast alternative medicine practitioners, various religious establishments and a plethora of eastern inspired activities including mediation groups and Zen master gardening groups. However, the psychic is not often considered a serious enterprise. And since we live in a culture that touts the mantra “seeing is believing” it is of little doubt that skepticism is king when it comes to psychic abilities and belief in the paranormal.

            None-the-less psychic abilities are innate in all of us. And just like the talent of a musician perfection comes with practice. In order to cultivate this sense which has been buried under the physical senses you must begin the journey inward.

            There are several different types of psychic abilities including clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairempathy, psychometry, psychokinesis, intuition, telepathy, mental influence, psychic healing and auric sight.  Each of these special abilities encompasses a different approach to learning information that does not otherwise have a place in the material world.

            Clairvoyance, clairaudience and clairempathy allow the user to clearly sense information via sight, hearing or emotion. The clairvoyant can see a scene or mental image within their mind depicting psychic information. Someone utilizing clairaudience often hears information that the physical ears cannot and clairempathy includes the ability to detect the attitude or emotions of others.

            Psychometry is the ability to perceive information through touch. Many of us have seen this skill utilized in television. The image of a psychic holding onto a murder weapon and envisioning the crime or touching the hand of someone who a recently suffered the loss of a loved one and seeing that persons face are both examples of psychometry.

            Psychokinesis is another form of psychic abilities that has become popular in Hollywood. This skill is includes the ability to move objects using the power of the mind. Intuition, on the other hand, is a more common psychic ability that includes the well known “gut feeling.” Intuition is the direct perception of information or ideas.

            Telepathy and mental influence are more advanced types of psychic abilities that include mind reading and the ability to influence the minds of others. Psychic healing allows its user to treat and cure illnesses by generating healing energy and transferring it to the patient.

            Auric sight is a less well known psychic ability that allows its user to see the aura of another person. The aura is an energy field that radiates from people. The colors and vibrations of an aura tell information concerning that person’s health and emotions.

ESP

ESP, Learn To Be Psychic April 28th, 2008

            Picture the scene. A crowded shop in a busy alley filled with books, strange smelling incense and astronomy charts. An old woman shrouded in all black sits at the back of the shop petting her black cat and waiting to read palms or tell fortunes from a crystal ball. This is just one way to view the typical stereotypes of what and who a psychic is.

            But could a psychic instead be the kind man at the Post Office that gives you mail every day.  What about your child’s Kindergarten teacher? Everyone has the potential to be a psychic but before embarking on the journey of developing extrasensory skills some misconceptions need to be addressed.

            As humans we experience life through our five senses, sight, scent, touch, smell and hearing. However extrasensory perception or ESP bypasses the senses to provide information without any physical source.

            Many people encounter their own ESP on a daily basis but the incidents are so ordinary they are generally forgotten. ESP is not necessarily a dramatic experience. Despite dramatic representations of ESP in mystery novels and popular television series in real life it could be a “gut feeling” or a flash of a face in a dream. Because these experiences are generally subtle many people consider them to be a mere coincidence.

            From a scientific standpoint there is still speculation concerning the validity of ESP. And it can be argued that no matter how testing is conducted there may always be skepticism. However, much data has been collected and many studies do indicate that ESP is a very real phenomenon. The term “extrasensory perception” was first used by scientist J.B. Rhine in the early 20th century. Rhine along with his wife Louisa did much work establishing ESP as well as parapsychology as a scientific field. But despite these advances universally scientists still question the existence of ESP.

            Historically ESP is not a new idea. Specifically in the Mesopotamia and Egyptian regions there are accounts of ESP activity recorded dating back more than two thousand years. These societies believed in psychic dreams and took council from dream interpreters.

            Although ESP is not new in itself the study of it is. And since there is still no conclusive data concerning paranormal experiences ESP still isn’t given its scientific dues. However, one fact has been established and that is the fact that ESP is not a simple concept. There are many different forms of psychic ability as well as different types of experiences and people who have encountered them. Some psychic experiences are shrugged off as coincidences or instances of déjà vu.

Auras

Auras, Learn To Be Psychic April 24th, 2008

            Everything under the sun is composed of energy. This energy field is called an aura and it has been depicted in art and literature throughout history. Traditionally the aura has been associated with halos on the heads of angels or a radiating light coming from religious icons. However the aura is more than poetic inspiration. Everyone has an aura. And with training everyone can learn to see them.

            This distinctive atmosphere acts as a barometer of energy fields within the body signaling illnesses as well as gauging personality traits. By learning about auras you can increase self awareness as well as gauge the intentions and health of the people around you.

            The First Law of Thermodynamics says that energy under normal conditions cannot be created or destroyed, simply transformed from one type of energy to another. Throughout the day each person gives off energy that changes and evolves as their bodies carry out the functions of life and our emotions rule our chemical makeup. The aura itself is not just one energy field but several fields blending together and sending out information about the person or place it inhabits.

            Auras are comprised of seven layers. Each one is more refined than the previous one. Each layer is representative of different elements of your being. The first layer, the etheric layer, is representative of health. In a healthy person this energy field will be bright and radiant but a sick person will give off a pale and sickly etheric. The next energy field is the emotional stockroom known as the emotional layer. The emotional layer is followed by the mental layer which can identify lack of will power. Next on the energy field is an intense layer known as the astral layer. This energy spectrum reflects matters of the heart. This is the link between body, mind and spirit and should be a large and bright light source in a person who engages in healthy relationships.

            Each layer is becoming more refined and difficult to see as we get to the fifth layer known as the etheric template which reflects communication and creative expression. The next layer is comprised of the visual senses. This layer known as the celestial layer represents a person’s view of the world. And the last layer is called ketheric layer which indicates a person’s openness to the world.

            In combination with brightness each person aura is color coded to reflect their health and personality.  Although there are several layers of an aura there is generally one predominant color that describes a person’s personality. The colors tend to be a variation of red, green, blue, white, orange and purple. Each color represents specific traits.

            For example purple represents the inclination toward spiritualism. Violet shades are indicative of artistic expression, intuition and sensuality. Reds represent action, stamina and excitement. Dark red shades bring groundage and survival instincts into the mix. Orange is the color of optimism. A person with an orange aura is positive, action oriented and adventurous. White offers a changing personality that encompasses spirituality as well as healing properties. Green is a natural color that denotes the ability to lead as well as teach. This person is a gracious host or hostess and the most socially adept. Blue hues are the most peaceful aura colors. A person with a blue hued aura is caring and sensitive as well as a spiritual seeker.

Some Reasons Why You Might Want to Become a Psychic

Learn To Be Psychic April 13th, 2008

Chances are, you aren’t planning on becoming the neighborhood’s newest crystal ball reader. That said, there are some places in life where having psychic abilities will give you a definite advantage. Among other things, a sense of weather patterns, and a deeper understanding of the relationships you have with others can be of immense benefit. In addition, there is always something in the makeup of humanity that strives to be eternal, or be in line with that type of energy. Today, we all need to consider global warming in our future plans. Even as I write this, severe flooding is taking its toll on in areas that are traditionally the bread baskets of the world. In addition, people in those areas are suffering catastrophic loss of life and possessions. If you become a psychic, you may be able to develop a level of precognition about weather patterns. While pains at the site of a previous sprain may tell you when rain is due, they may not tell you about earthquakes or terror events. On the other hand, dreams, and your own internal signals may well warn you of many other types of large scale disasters.

It is also no secret that the global economy is on the verge of collapse. Unfortunately, it is human nature to want to deny the existence of things we feel may happen in our future. This can include pretending that a member of the household is not ready to leave us, or even denying that a boss that is ready to fire. When you become a psychic, you will develop an accurate interpretation of these signals.

As you search for the evidence of your own abilities, you will also own responsibility for awareness that there were a number of signals that something harmful was about to enter your life. From there, as you become a psychic, you will also learn that signals aren’t something to complain about. Rather, they indicate it is time to act, and from there, you can help yourself in any number of ways.

While nations, and therefore their ability to tax citizens may fall, death has proven an immutable force across all of time. Thus, it should come as no surprise that humanity would want to find a way to survive physical death. When you become a psychic it will not guarantee immortality. On the other hand, you may want to see if you can contact people that have survived, or even learn more about how this universe came into existence.

Over the years, the desire to become a psychic has developed into a goal for many people. Irregardless of how many people may mock the notion, desperation can force even a devout skeptic to seek a higher power. While it may not be easy to become a psychic, when managed responsibly, these abilities can greatly enhance your life and opportunities.

The Myth of Becoming Psychic

Learn To Be Psychic April 9th, 2008

Over the centuries, there have been all sort of potions, books, and kits designed to increase the chances of becoming psychic. In one sense, it is unfortunate that there is no such thing as “becoming psychic”. You are born with the ability  to be Psychic and “loose” it as you get older. On the other hand, chances are you would not be alive if you did not have something inside of you that is loosely referred to as a life force, or soul. Even a scientist will tell you that life must come from life. In many cases, psychic abilities have to do with the interplay of your soul and your physical body. Therefore, every person in this world already has a capacity to be psychic.

Today, many books and teachers spend a great deal of time explaining why people have certain abilities, while others do not. At the same time, these books may teach you methods that are not correct or directly useful for recognizing and developing your own talents. As an example, becoming psychic with an emphasis on precognition is very different from distant healing and telepathy. That said, irregardless of which gift you were born with, becoming psychic also means using these gifts in a moral and responsible way.

If you are interested in becoming psychic, it is crucial to understand why you want to pursue this path, as well as be aware of the pitfalls you may encounter. It is also important to recognize that there is a huge difference between what you need to survive and the power of luxury. In many cases, if you find yourself having problems during the course of becoming psychic, you will come to understand that it comes down to trying to have what you want, but do not need.

Without a question, at every stage, there are people and events that will encourage these tendencies. If you look carefully, you will soon realize these people are locked in a pattern that says their survival depends on spreading lies and misinformation. Failure to recognize the truth of the matter can easily create a situation where you live in garish fantasy and uselessness for years on end. Not only will this deny you what you sought in the process of becoming psychic, it may cause permanent harm in every area of your life.

For people that realize that specific gifts are unique to each person, it becomes a simple matter of accepting what is allotted to you, and owning that gift. This is a much more beneficial process than trying to pretend you have a capacity that is not truly yours. In many ways, becoming psychic is an attempt to create some semblance of security in a world that is sinking further and further into chaos. As a result, not only is becoming psychic understandable, it may well be necessary. That said, the steps you take and the way you take them are very important to achieving your goal.

Some Things That May Happen as You Develop Psychic Powers

Learn To Be Psychic April 4th, 2008

Many people feel that they have to move along on some sort of scale of progress in order to develop psychic powers. All of the “mystery schools”, “inner circles”, and other educational sounding names all lend themselves well to this illusion. As a result, you may find yourself asking how you will know you have successfully developed psychic powers. It may seem overly simple to say that if you have to ask for guidelines, you are not even at the beginning stages of learning how to develop psychic powers. In a sense, when you truly step into your own ability, there will be no questioning it. Consider a situation where you have been driving around for years wondering if you ever hit anything. Chances are, even if you have a minor bumper fender collision in a parking lot, you will know for certain what it feels like.

As you develop psychic powers, you will, without a question know that you have either passed or gotten stuck at specific milestones. For the most part, the things that happen in your life can serve as some tentative guidelines. Among other things, you can look at your ability to predict the behaviors of others. Even if someone’s actions might be unthinkable, chances are it crossed your mind. As you develop psychic powers, you will learn how to take these impressions and use them for your own benefit.

Chances are, in today’s economy, you would love to know if your boss is considering laying you off, or even firing you in order to meet budget constraints. As you develop psychic powers, any number of things may spark a sense that something is not right in the relationship with your employer. You may see certain colors emanating from their eyes, auras, or even dream about specific events. Even if everything appears to be going perfectly in your job, these impressions will come to you.

Once you begin to develop psychic powers, it is important to trust that what you are seeing is correct, and look for actions that will be of benefit to all. It is also very important to not blame yourself or the external sources that help deliver these messages. In this case, perhaps it would be best to simply start looking for another job. Even by making your intent to leave clear to your employer, it may drastically change the situation. Among other things you may not have to deal with being fired. Your manager may even be happy to give you a good reference, and help preserve your work and reference records. In this way, each of you avoids an uncomfortable and painful situation.

Perhaps you will even find a job that is far better than what you had before. Gaining and enjoying the rewards of using your intuition in beneficial ways is actually one of the most enjoyable parts of learning to develop psychic powers. Without a question, as you navigate this path successfully, you will know it from within, and not need to hear from others how well or poorly you are doing.
