Yesterday all I did was teach my first art class for the summer and then rest. I felt like doing nothing at all. I did, though, check in with my Guides. The message I got was it was time for a “rest stop.” Apparently I’ve been doing a great deal of travel out of body to help aid Foxy, our red dog, who was having a tough time for a little while. She’s been perky and bouncey and feeling so much better. My Guides had showed me a rainbow, and told me I had been between worlds for awhile. I would think that would be very tiring. I feel like I am refueling for going forward.

Hey, that’s not mine!
The message I learned in dream school last night with my Guides, is to not take on others’ problems. That’s their life lessons and their earth school. You wouldn’t complete someone else’s math class in high school, would you? You’d offer tutoring and help, but not do the work for them. This lesson can be so hard for Empaths. We feel all the stuff going on around us so strongly, especially now with the energies going up a notch or two. But it’s important that when you react to someone else, to take a second to identify if it’s just someone else’s stuff. Protect yourself. Stand your ground. Speak your truth. Walk away from it. Too many times in my life I allowed someone else’s stuff to affect me and I allowed it to trigger me when I took it personally. Sure, keep looking at your own stuff. That’s what we are here to do. But sometimes it IS about someone else. Don’t star in their movies! (That was the message I got. And a good one at that).

Psychic World vs. Real World Part Two
Thanks for my lovely on-line and off-line friends and students who wrote to my other entry. I asked for more clarity why that situation happened and the Universe was quick. The other night I gave a profound animal communication class. I don’t take credit for it, of course. I was so tired that day, so I asked my Guides to step in and guide me. I love when this happens, because the class always works out so well.
We have our skeptical couple, who I thought for sure wouldn’t return to the second class after hearing some of the “woo-woo” words I used, like “energy” and “vibration.” (I did warn them). But, when they showed up for the next class, I knew they were there for a reason.
I asked the class to break into partners to practice being the communicator and the client to tackle the emotional problems of our animals, and the couple refused to break up. Their reasoning was they knew the issues their animals were having and could best discuss it. I wasn’t sure they were “getting” that we’d tackle these issues psychically and intuitively, rather than with our logical minds. So, I was guided to have one of the other students be the communicator and help out, and they could be the clients. What happened next was exciting.
As the “communicator” picked up more and more of their animal’s energies, the answers flowed, and the couple’s eyes widened. I simply coached her along the process. She was shocked she could do that well receiving communications. The couple was intrigued. Soon, the wife was receiving answers herself and big “a-ha’s.” SHE was being psychic. Her husband amazed, looked at the “communicator” and said, “You’re good.” They had some real answers and insights that didn’t come from the logical brain and I am sure their animals were going to be very happy.
I was amazed. They were willing to open up their world a little wider in their beliefs and look how much they benefited.
The students and I discussed what happened to me in the vet office and we concluded that the vet’s reaction to putting my cards there was about FEAR. I gave the example of, if the aliens landed tomorrow in a big spaceship on the lawn of the town’s city hall, many folks would completely flip out. Their beliefs about the world of what is possible would have to expand and change, and many people don’t want that to happen. It’s too scary. Today we are experiencing so much change that it’s easy to grab onto the old for dear life for safety. That makes sense, but doesn’t work.
I am sure on some level somewhere when I am experiencing fear about my own life, I guarantee I am doing the same, but then I remember what happened to the lovely couple in my class, when they dared to open that window of possibility just a little. What great gifts arrived!
The Psychic World vs. the “real” world
I’ve been very spoiled the last eight years. We’ve lived close to Sedona, the capital of weird and much psychic activity. Most of my friends are all intuitive in some way and see things from a higher perspective. It is not uncommon to speak about animal communication or about our Guides and Angels in our normal conversation because this is our reality. We moved in the past year to an area that is beautiful and filled with activity and unknowingly moved into a small town that is very religious and church-going. Our own family is very spiritual but not religious. We all have such wild psychic experiences on a regular basis it is hard not to believe in psychic ability. Our daughter is going to a school that is very structured. She does well with structure, but we found out most of her friends are very religious and have regularly tried to save her soul on numerous occasions just because she has different beliefs. I have been pretty isolated from all of this and usually hang out with the other healers in the area. Until today.
We went to a lovely new vet. A huge coincidence (:)) was the new vet just happens to be a vet I met long ago when she was just starting out and I was just starting out in my animal communication biz. I drew her logo for her biz back then, and in return, she did a house call for our babies. She believed in animal communication, alternative healing, and flower essences, and even lived in a spiritual retreat center. We had a lovely visit today and found out Foxy, our red dog, was having some kidney stuff. Foxy herself had communicated to me that she felt her dog food was too rich and salty and was causing a strain on her kidneys. In the vet’s office, I knew then, that she needed to check Foxy’s kidneys, and was right. (Big validation I heard Foxy right). The vet also asked me if I worked with dogs’ behavior issues. At the end of the visit I felt great that I had finally found an aware vet and left some business cards at the counter. Much to my surprise and amazement, I received a phonecall from the Vet’s office saying I needed to remove my business cards because the owners are Christian and don’t believe in that “stuff.” Not missing a beat, I just suggested they give the cards to the vet we worked with who WAS into that kind of “stuff.”
I am still amazed. Perhaps I’ve been too sheltered being surrounded by like-minded’s for so long. I don’t see how being a Christian excludes you from believing in healing with Nature and working with your intuition. Many of my students have a Christian background and believe fully just from experience alone. Perhaps I was sent there that day for reassurance for the Vet we know. I am not sure if we should look for a new vet for our girls or not, or what we were meant to learn from the experience just yet. I do know that I felt excluded and unaccepted for who I am (afterall, God made me psychic!) and that is not what Christianity is supposed to be about. Christ, I recall, was all about unconditional love and acceptance for everyone. And wasn’t Christ himself able to talk to animals, heal with his hands, channel God and his messages? Hmmm. What do you think?
Slow Down
I’m getting the message from the Universe I need to slow down. It’s a bit hard when I am used to squeezing whatever I can into a day. I forget often I’m in a body. My teaching schedule has just doubled and I am learning the fine art of prioritizing. I’m not very good at it so it’s been a good laugh. My students must think I am just an absent-minded professor-type, when I usually have six hundred things on my mind that I am juggling. And like an addiction, I always am seeking other places to teach and other ways–I just enjoy it so much. That isn’t a problem, it’s being sure I schedule enough “in” time as I “out.” As a sensitive and being more introverted, I can in my excitement, be way too “out” and no schedule enough alone downtime. My first clue this is happening is cranky nastiness and of course, too much speed. The Universe made this clear to me when I received my first speeding ticket. Recently, I picked up a writing book that caught my eye: Chapter by Chapter. Ironically, my higher self gave me the message of slowing down also. I flipped right to the page entitled “slow down”, and that speed is a symptom of fear. That may very well be possible. I just think it is a clear sign of impatience.
Moving is so ungrounding and movie reviews
We are moving into our pink house. We are taking it slow and easy–something new for us and possibly my new motto. It’s Spring Break, we are all off from work and school, so we can extend the move. What I’ve noticed is Moving is very ungrounding! Empathically, I am constantly feeling odd stuff that is belonging to my family. It’s like one big whirlwind of emotions flying around! I have to constantly stop and think, is this mine? And when the thoughts and feelings are so foreign, I know they are not. The good news is we blessed the new house, smudged it and brought in fairy energy. Emma Lou has spread her delicious puppy energy throughout the house bringing her crazy silliness in. Everytime we go I feel good and silly, which is a new feeling for me lately. I like it. I am seriously thinking of dyeing my hair red and buying a new wardrobe–ah, signs of rebirth! My own stuff has come up also–from long ago, products of old moves. All part of the ungroundedness. I am finding that taking breaks during the move has helped us a great deal. We watched a ton of movies in our downtime:
– Last night we saw The Spiderwick Chronicles in the theater. Visually lush and fun; Hubby was a little disappointed. Had a “Jumangi” feel to it I liked. Fairies seemed to be shown in a bit of a mischievious light I didn’t like. Loved, loved the flower fairies!!!
– Hated Pan’s Labyrinth. Yes, it is beautifully done, but boy, is it depressing and violent. Empaths, you will have a hard time with the violence. The violence only got worse as the movie went on and the images more freaky. I am so visual and sometimes these images stay for a long time. Don’t recommend.
– Love Blades of Glory. This skating comedy is so, so funny! Just what was needed during a move. The writing is well done and unlike many comedies that fall short in laughs towards the end, this comedy keeps delivering. Two thumbs up.
– Man of the Year. Love Robin Williams. Up in the air with this one. Kinda depressing, but good commentary on today’s politics.
– Ghosthunter reruns. Um, duh. You know I love this series.
– The Last Whimsy. Love, love this movie. It is real! The stuff the kids see is what I see most of the time, so this was very validating. This is a very forward thinking movie. Sad when she had to say goodbye to the bunny though.
Until later movies…
Know Yourself
What I am learning…instead of lamenting on how I am and who I am, I need to embrace it. My soul is letting me know what I need to make me happy and when I explain away or tell myself my feelings aren’t spiritual, I miss out on important clues. What do I mean exactly?
1. I love variety and get bored easily, that is why I love design assignments, love creating a class, learning new things. When I am in a position of doing the same thing over and over, of course I’m unhappy. The new spiritual ideas floating around say you need to “fix” that unspiritual thought, but that’s untrue! Here’s a valuable clue to what makes me tick. I need to work with this, not paddle upstream by changing me. ( I love the True Colors system. When I read about it I found out that most Green’s feel that way).
2. I need alone time to touch base with myself and recharge. After reading the Introvert Advantage, I know that this is a truth for most folks like myself. It’s documented truth. If I try to force myself to be more social all the time like the rest of the world, I’m going to be one bitchy, nasty girl. My daughter is the opposite. She needs to be around people most of the time. She’s gotten alot more balanced and can now spend lots of time in her room. For a few years there I tried to accommodate her and be “out” more than “in”. It didn’t work. I overloaded most the time.
Without alone time I have no idea how I really feel. Then it’s not uncommon for me to say things like, “I didn’t even know I was angry.”
3. A big clue you aren’t taking the time to hear yourself is when you are screaming at the Universe, “Don’t you hear me!”, when you don’t feel your needs are being heard. This was big a realization for me. Why should the Universe listen to you when you don’t?
Today, listen to yourself. Accept the negative feelings! Let it out! Don’t rewrite them to sound positive or to be politically correct or so you only attract the positive. The positive is underneath all that gunk that needs to come out first. These are clues to what you need, people. I write this for myself as a reminder, as well as, to share with you.
Weird and Wild Energies
It’s been a wild ride lately. Very lucid dreams, lots of Guide and Angel visits around the clock, big downloads and wacky energy. I love teaching and have been very busy lately. Have other lightworkers noticed how dead things are computer-wise? My blogs have been quiet, online biz very, very quiet, and yet teaching has been very busy and lots of flow. Thank Dog I have that! I am being shown which direction to go. I have felt so many changes to myself lately, it is as if now I am discerning what clothes fit me (biz choices, places to work and things to do) and what to throw out and donate.
Another change has been feeling less affected by even really big changes. I am less swept away with my emotions. Perhaps I am learning DUCK ENERGY. I did flip out yesterday when I found out that my course for next fall at the college was removed without my feedback. But, even then, I was watched out for by the Universe–someone caught the slight and renamed the class and threw it back into the schedule. I have a tendency to think the worse and brace myself (which can make perfect sense after a tortuous 2006 and 7), so it’s been wonderful to see I am being supported and taken care of. I had made an intention and announcement to that end to always feel well taken care of. Lately, I have been given gifts by my students, there’s the college save, our new home to be, and everyday this intention has been evident. Nice…. I have so much to share. Angelbeagle visits, seeing energy, spirits setting off alarms. Stay tuned…
Time management for empaths
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.
Deep cleansing & energies now
The energies are pretty wacky right now. I wake up in the middle of the night many times after deep processing and heavy emotion dreams. My head has been aching and there’s been a ton of downloads of energy. My friends are mirroring the same thing. Most are going through the remains of big issues they have held onto for a great while. Now is the time. It is as if we all decided we would do this work to finally rid ourselves.
I am still learning duck energy, and it is still hard to remain neutral with my daughter who is unknowingly pushing all my sister childhood issues right now. But, I always notice, stuff comes up when you are ready to heal and clear. When the issues are on the surface they are ready to go.
On the good note, I am so enjoying my students right now, and I am preparing to teach a college art course of more students. I am also finding that when I have clarity things flow to me. It’s the getting to that clarity that can be a little daunting.
Must go, Emma Lou is eating something she shouldn’t, again.
