1). Prejudice – Understanding Racial and Ethnic Hatred
If you have ever felt embarrassed or shamed by an ethnic or racial slur or other defamatory words spoken by a companion or friend, then you already know how much these words can hurt the people whom they are targeted against. These words damage people of other races or ethnicity even when not spoken in the presence of a member of the group targeted by this sort of hatred.

2). Evil Spirits – Can we be Haunted or Possessed?
We may sometimes come to believe we are haunted or possessed by some malign entity who may mean to harm us. There are often mysterious or dramatic events or illnesses associated with this belief. We may consult a psychic or cleric for help and have this belief confirmed, but are we really haunted or possessed? If we have indeed become attached in some way to an evil spirit what are our options?

I have had clients come to me to describe being haunted or they may raise concerns that they may be possessed.

3). The Thinning Veil – Will It Completely Disappear?
The veil is that which lies between incarnate and discarnate spirits. The veil is there to help our incarnate forms to remain focused on our worldly goals rather than be distracted by the plights of recently deceased beings.

Those who have recently died are often in a state of turmoil because they do not know how or have not yet remembered how to integrate with their infinite spirit.

4). Our Spirits and Incarnations – Are We Many or One?
Could the belief in past lives and reincarnation become so commonplace that we may one day be required to describe our past life experiences in our resumes? It seems unlikely that we will ever have to disclose our previous lives’ experiences in our resumes in this world, but there may be worlds where our spiritual evolution has progressed to a degree where this is a common practice.

5). Healing - A Spiral Path to Wellbeing
The road to recovery from issues in our lives that have hampered our happiness and wellbeing can be a long and perplexing path. Often it will seem to go in circles endlessly and never seems to get anywhere. Even more perplexing is that when we finally reach one of those special moments when we can finally acknowledge we have made it, and then a new road emerges ahead of us and we must continue to pursue our path of healing.

6). Magick – Creating a New World
There are a great many magickal traditions practiced today and they all share several common elements. The primary element of a magickal tradition is the importance of spiritual growth and development. From that point all else follows and nothing can be achieved without it. Magick is a process whereby we may direct the world with our will to manifest whatever we wish for.

7). Teach Yourself to Read Auras - Par Two, Technique
Imagine you can see auras. People, plants, animals and inanimate objects appear to radiate a resplendent light. As you examine the colors and shapes of this light you begin to hear a voice inside you that guides you to understand the meaning of the colors and how they relate to the subject around which the aura emanates. Practice this imaginative process and begin to test the results of your perceptions.

8). The Chakra Song
We may feel we are familiar with the practices of prayer or meditation and we may have tried these unsuccessfully and wondered why such time honored avenues to self empowerment have failed to work in our lives. We may hear many testimonies that describe the effective power to transform our lives which these practices can bestow upon us and we may have felt frustrated that we have not learned how to use these tools to make ourselves feel happier, healthier or more content.

9). Emergency Broadcast
This is not a test.
This is not a test.
Stay tuned to yourself, this is not a test.
During the next sixty seconds
you are asked to consider:
"Am I good to myself?"
Begin now.
Are you good to yourself?
Or, do you while away your days,
denying praise
that you have received,
for what you've conceived,
and brought into being...
your self?
Yes, You.
Heart of light, beaming bright,
your spirit sight focusing
within your bright light.

10). Spiritual Contracts – There Are No Victims
There is a popular philosophy among people who explore spirituality which is often discussed by Sylvia Brown and which appears in her written work that describes a spiritual contract we enter into when we begin our various incarnations. In that contract we agree to accept and experience everything which will happen to us in our lives.

This concept of a spiritual contract gets very complex because in one sense it suggests that all the events of our lives are pre-ordained.

11). Testing Psychics – Understanding Doubt and Skepticism
Has anyone ever challenged your psychic abilities? Everyone has psychic abilities; those of us who are actively trying to develop our psychic abilities as a part of our spiritual journey sometimes face doubt regarding our abilities either from within ourselves or from others. Now you may learn about some of the underlying issues regarding tests of your psychic abilities to help you meet these challenges with grace.

12). Transformation in Progress – Cleansing Chakras
Does an epic battle truly exist between Light and Dark? I have enjoyed writing and reading stories about battles between good and evil that have been characterized as Light and. Dark, and many believe that such an epic battle is actually taking place with our Earth as a prize to be claimed by the winners. It has been my opinion that there could not.

13). Dreaming – How Real Are Our Dreams?
We wake up in a cold sweat from a nightmarish dream of our demise and wonder whether we have just been warned. Or we linger in a dream that is gratifying a primal but unfulfilled desire in our life for happiness or success until we can remain within the dream no longer and we must awaken. Do our dreams have any real significance and if so how can we know?

Many people claim not to remember their dreams upon awakening, or even deny that they have any dreams at all.

14). Transcending Religions’ Meaning and Value
Religions play wonderful roles in our lives, offering us a sense of community and fellowship that nurtures us and sustains us in our times of need. But most religions are flawed in one manner or another and it is easy to become disillusioned by our religion or intolerant of the religions of others. While pursuing our spiritual journeys through life we may do well to reflect on the roles of religions in our lives and how we may transcend their limitations and achieve an independent state of being.

15). Self Realization - A Personal Moment of Transformation
In our journey through life we may stumble across a hidden pathway that leads to our spiritual development. When we reach the point of balance within ourselves where our heart opens and all of our negative thoughts and habits are released we can experience a fundamental permanent change in how we see ourselves and how we perceive our relationship to the world around us that is so immensely liberating and fulfilling that our lives are forever changed.

16). Sand Meditation
Sometimes meditation opens a door into the mysteries of creation. If we allow ourselves to pass through this door there is no telling what we may encounter on the other side. Do not become discouraged if you have tried to meditate in the past and not gotten any remarkable results. Meditation is a mystical process and it may take awhile to learn how to quiet your mind and open yourself to all the present moment has to offer you.

17). Remote Healing – No Permission Needed
Spiritual and psychic healing arts have entered our cultural mainstream. With the widespread acceptance of the healing arts remote healing (aka distance or absent healing) has been gaining tremendous ground on the internet. The internet is an ideal medium for initiating instances of remote healing. If you are in need of care or have the capacity to share your compassion and healing energy with someone else you can easily hook up across the internet.

18). Teach Yourself to Read Auras - Part One, Introduction to the Colors
Imagine you can see auras. People, plants, animals and inanimate objects appear to radiate a resplendent light. As you examine the colors and shapes of this light you begin to hear a voice inside you that guides you to understand the meaning of the colors and how they relate to the subject around which the aura emanates. Practice this imaginative process and begin to test the results of your perceptions.

19). Past Lives – What Are They Really?
New age culture has embraced the Hindu philosophy of reincarnation with abandon. Many people eagerly relate stories about their ‘past life’ experiences. I, for one, am certain that we have many incarnations, and therefore we have some lives which may genuinely be our past lives. But there are charlatans and Tom foolery afoot, so not all past life experiences may be valid examples of the principles of reincarnation.

20). Hell in a Nutshell
If you have ever been concerned about your prospects in the 'afterlife', particularly with regard to the possibility of going to Hell, then please be assured that all the stories and myths and warnings have twisted the facts. This isn't to say there won't be Hell to pay if you have hurt someone or hurt yourself, but Hell is not an eternal punishment; rather, Hell is just a part of our path upon our spiritual journey and Hell can be a wonderful place to visit once you understand what is really going on there.

21). Testing Love – How to Avoid a Common Pitfall that Ruins Relationships
Psychic Readers and Healers may want to add this valuable lesson to their toolkits. Testing someone’s love can be a trap that may ruin your relationship with them. Learn why this happens so that you may avoid this relationship pitfall and heal the damage such tests may have caused to you, or those whom you love.

I wanted to share one of the most common healings I have done with psychic readings.

22). Automatic Writing – How to Open the Channel
If you have ever wanted to try your hand at automatic writing then read on. I will share the process by which I sometimes become a channel to pass on the messages of entities who speak with my hands by writing. Automatic writing is a form of psychic mediumship, but everyone has this latent ability within them and can practice their writing skills to a point where they may learn how to initiate a channeled communication by automatic writing.
