Recognizing Energies

designingfairy4 Comments

I’ve been quite absent from my biz and my blog. As I prepare for a rebirth, there is much to do. I am still contemplating the fate of my website, ronniannhall.com, as my name may even change, and my focus is changing. I am still awaiting guidance.

I’ve been learning so much lately–huge lessons! The energies in the air are pretty wild lately. You almost need one of those pool floaty things to stay above the water. Many souls have been leaving, and many huge shake-ups. Gratefully, I am hearing my guidance louder than ever. I’ve got stalker Guides!

So, let’s talk about energy. It’s the perfect new age woo-woo term that has gone mainstream. I am learning the fine art of recognizing energy. Creepy stalker guy friend who appears to be helpful and nice, but something doesn’t feel right at all? Listen to that feeling. That creepy feeling was an alternative motive. Don’t listen to the words, but notice the feeling.

For many of us, we have shut down our feelers. Strong empaths may have learned this survival technique. But this is our lifeline! Find a safe place to feel and then tune in: creepy feeling, good feeling, sad feeling? And listen to your gut. Everything may LOOK perfect, but does it feel good?

Contacts vs. Glasses & the Empath

designingfairy1 Comment

It’s amazing how switching from glasses to contact lenses again has changed my perception in life.

One thing I have noticed is I felt more protected when I had glasses. This seems strange.The glasses created a nice barrier between what I was seeing and the world. Without them, I feel vulnerable and exposed.

Being so empathic, I realize that if indeed, the eyes are a window to the soul, perhaps by seeing eye-to-eye with others I may have the tendency to jump in and read too much of another person. I don’t need to go there! My glasses are usually always dirty in some way so that extra barrier must help also.

I feel more attractive with the contact lenses back in place after the long absence, perhaps after years of brainwashing that girls with glasses don’t get passes? Ha ha. I am not sure. It’s not to the world I want to feel attractive with, but myself. I can see my eyes again and all the emotion behind them.

Seeing clearly has other disadvantages. Did I really want to notice this or that? I already notice too much in my environment. It’s almost another barrier to focusing on myself and my own world–another trap for an empath.

As I write this, my left contact is growing fuzzy. Resistant to the new vision? Do I want to run for the glasses and hide again? Maybe…

Psychic vs. scientist

designingfairy1 Comment

scientistI am slowly learning:

  • I question myself when around someone who is more of a “scientist” and is unbelieving. One of Foxy’s vets looks at me like I am crazy when I tell her what Foxy is feeling or what I “get”. She took xrays of Foxy’s back and showed places where she had problems. She said, “She may or may not have any pain.” I said, “Yes, she has pain. I told you that. Several times. In those exact places.” She just ignored me. The woman only looks at the numbers and doesn’t seem to have the intuition or feeling to see what is happening. Being an empathic/intuitive person, I can’t even understand this. I was furious she would question my abilities or expertise of ten years when I don’t hers. It’s out and out disrespectful! And worse, around that energy,  I begin to question myself.
  • Perhaps, she is mirroring my own doubts. My Guides had given me advice about Foxy’s health I questioned because I didn’t see results in front of me. I had to act on blind faith and I haven’t been able to do that. Perhaps I too, am the scientist.
  • Trusting even though situations may look bad or hopeless: I remember when we were selling our house a few years back when the market just started to go downhill. At the time, I was getting advice from our departed dog of all things. Talk about faith. But, I wholeheartedly trusted  Lucy and I felt her spirit, and heard her. Lucy said we’d find that buyer and said when- March. There was a bit of a snag. A realtor came in March bringing an interested client and the client fell through–couldn’t get financing! We were then approached by a shady couple to buy our house cheaply. Was this the buyer? This couple felt so horrible, I had a migraine after talking to them. We decided to go with faith, said no, and decided to wait it out. Glad we did. Only two days later, that nice realtor came by again with our buyer. That buyer who picked out our house from a huge list of houses unseen and said, “That one.” What if I hadn’t trusted? I’d have missed the miracle.
  • We do need that balance: science balanced with intuition. If I treated Foxy for her kidneys with just faith, I don’t know if I’d see results. We still need the medications for support and the fluids. There is a role for each. I know if I had bacterial pneumonia I sure as hell would want some antibiotics and not just hands-on-healing to wipe it out.  I’d need both. Getting information that is happening is needed from the animals and Guides and then the vet/doctor can come in and do support. We can use natural support–plants, etc., but we still need that. I guess, it’s all balance.
  • We are not just test results. You need the full story on all levels what is occuring to a person or animal. Too unbalanced a view doesn’t give the whole picture.

Headaches and Psychics

designingfairy

Yesterday I had the worst headache. I was able to get rid of it by taking a nap and a dose of Tylenol, but I had a doozy of a time figuring it out what caused it until I had some time to do some healing on my head. Here’s reasons why if you are psychic or sensitive, you may have a headache:

  • 1. You’re tired. This was the simplest reason for me. I needed to rest.
  • 2. Hormones shifting. That’s for you ladies out there. And even vibrations are shifting (a whole other topic).
  • 3. My head will ache in my psychic spot if there’s negativity around me in some form.
  • 4. Sometimes your head aches when there’s a spirit around of a lower or different vibration. I’ve been to “haunted” places and boy, it felt like my head would come off in some.
  • 5. Stuck emotions–your own. I was upset yesterday and tried to hold it all in. Boy, can you get a doozy of a headache holding back the stream.
  • 6. Stuck emotions–others. If you are empathic, you can take on others’ stuck emotions–the ones they aren’t expressing–and carry it. Ouch. Important to differentiate if it is yours or not. Ask that whatever isn’t yours leaves, and if you feel better, you have evidence.
  • 7. For you hypochondriacs–brain tumor. Just don’t go there.  If it’s really bad headache, we’re talking huge, then go there.
  • 8. Too much energy in the head–this happens to me often. Best way to take care of this? Ground it out somehow. Go do yoga, hold your feet, walk, take a flower essence, and get out of your head. Doing more head work, or worrying more, makes it worse.
  • 9. And last but not least, what did you eat? I had sugar on low blood sugar. Whoops. Ouch. But it tasted really good.

So there you have it. The good thing about being a blogger and a teacher, is that even having a headache is good source material.

Radio!

designingfairy5 Comments

I was just interviewed by Mrs. Claus on the Family Yak channel– an inspirational and spiritual (but not religious) podcast online radio show in Australia. It was wonderful. Will find out soon the url to send everyone too.  I was able to talk about everything I teach–animal communication, working with the Fairies, my Fairy School, helping the Sensitives. So exciting! The funny thing was my ear was ringing most of the time. Lots of helpers assisting me with the interview, I’d say. 🙂

Time management for empaths

designingfairy2 Comments

I’m listening to a great tape–Time Management from the Inside Out–as I drive to school. Of course, the suggestions are for the ideal situation. I find, lately, I rush around like a nut most days, bending to everyone else’s needs, ending the day exhausted and my own fun on the backburner. I realized my time management was more about being centered for me in my own world–not pulled by the many threads around me. I learned this in Nia class the other day also. In Nia, a free-form type of dance class, we bend and flow and scurry around the room. When I switched focus to what other dancers were doing, I actually lost my balance! Back in my own head and my own experience, I felt centered and strong. How fabulous a dance class would be so profound in teaching me. The way I did my process in the class would apply to everything else I do. This week with the help of my ever present and very patient Angel & Fairy Guides, I am focusing on centering.

Go where it flows

designingfairy1 Comment

Much, much thanks to my fellow colleagues and blog pals who wrote and commented on my How Not To Manifest. I am never too scared to lay out my vulnerability and mistakes in this blog. I used to think this wasn’t a good thing, perhaps as a teacher, I should be more “professional” and present myself as “all-wise”and “all-knowing, but I am seeing that we all need to share. We need to share, because when we do, we realize we are not alone, and we have the answers for each other.

Here’s a little excerpt from my Psychic Necessities For Sensitives online class:

I am learning in Dream School with my Guides, the lesson of focusing on what is flowing. Too often, being a sensitive, I will focus on the slights and the rejections because I feel them so strongly. Sometimes, I think we are programmed to do this type of vision from when we are very young. As natural healers we want to fix what is broken, so we focus on what doesn’t work to figure out how to make it work! We need to highlight what does feel good, where things ARE flowing, and where we ARE wanted. This flow is an arrow to where we need to go.

For instance, in my own life, the two college classes I wanted to teach, and were very excited about, have overflowed with students. My 15 room capacity class for animal communication now has 17 students! My book class has a wait list. This tells me that both topics are wanted and this is where I need to teach.

When we first moved here, I tried to teach a local fairy class that no one signed up for! I was devastated, hurt, and felt horribly rejected. Naturally, being new, I wanted community in this new town. After the rejection, I wanted to go back into my shell and  was afraid to venture forth again. Of course then, little mind steps in and tells me that what I teach isn’t wanted here! But with the success of an overflowing class for ac this tells that little mind that NO, it IS wanted! I need to focus on that 17 group of students who are eager to learn this subject and what I have to offer, not on the rejected class. My old ways would be to try to do another type of class at the same place that failed. Perhaps if I try harder. Maybe even obsess on that loss. But what we all learned in the Secret, :), is that what we focus on expands. I want more of these eager students! And remembering where I need to go is where it is working, I plan more big classes at the college. 🙂 Then perhaps down the line, when I encounter another class or group that doesn’t work, I know the feeling of a class that does, so I skip the rejection phase and go right for only wanting the class I belong to teach.

Earth Energies Now–checking in

designingfairy

Empathically it feels like the energies are still, calm, quiet. Perhaps this is desperately needed after experiencing such strong energies in the last few months that have done a number on most of us! I’ve been having many dreams in the astral of choosing and picking what I want, often in the subject of shopping! I think we are preparing for what is next and we have a choice what that will entail. My Guides tell me to take the time out to decide which direction to go in, and always, the message is to go where there is the most energy for you. I find lately, when I pursue my “head” ideas only, I am bored, lifeless and even annoyed. Yet, the heart ideas peek through–experimenting and playing with color, writing, making books, playing. Those are the ideas I need to follow. I am very impatient by nature, so of course, I want to know what is next RIGHT NOW. It feels like the energies will pick up by the end of the month, going into February. Lots of forward movement and excitement. Right now there’s the lull–the preparing.

The essence of choice right now? Yucca for focus and for following your purpose or path.
