Being Your True Self by Christine Haggerty Two facts:
1. You can not be truly happy and fulfilled living your life for someone else.
2. You can not be truly content and at peace being someone that you are not.
For years, or perhaps, for a lifetime, many of us have lived our lives trying to please others: Our parents, our family, our teachers, our co-workers, our neighbors, and even strangers. We try so hard to fit in to the norms of society. We act in such a way so people will....
  
One year ago this week, we were on a camping trip through Idaho, Utah and Montana, and I had been annoyingly waking up each day with hives. I knew this, for me, was due to a weak heart. Exercise really isn’t an option for me. I have to do it. I have to keep my heart strong or, as I have learned, I get hives. When my heart is strong, no hives and all is well. It’s a pretty simple equation.
My daily workout, which consisted of jumping rope (5 sets of 100 reps), 30 pushups, five arm exercises, and a 3-minute floor routine doing leg circles, had become erratic. Sometimes I’d skip a day, sometimes two. I love this workout because....
  
Decisions Made on Assumptions by Badeish Lange
Don Miguel, who wrote the book, The Four Agreements said, “The problem with making assumptions is that we believe they are the truth. We would swear they are real!” We make an assumption, we misunderstand, we take it personally, and we end up creating a drama for nothing.
We base personal and business decisions on assumptions all the time. Example: Wall Street and the entire banking environment are based on assumptions from tips and rumors. Example: We go about our daily business assuming government does not have to be watched.

Garnet is known for recognizing prosperity in one’s life. It may resonate with the first chakra and help to bring earth’s loving energy up through a person’s energy centers. This is known as promoting kundalini energy flow. Kundalini is a type of experience within the Hindu tradition. When awakened, Kundalini is described as rising up from the first chakra along the spine to the top of the head. The progress of Kundalini through the different chakras is believed to achieve different levels of awakening and a mystical experience.
  
Our world is changing. Our “normal” routines, our lives have begun to adjust and shift. We must realize there is no way back to “normal” as it was. So traditional ways are no longer possible for successfully managing the challenges we face, such as social chaos, climate change, economic uncertainty, pandemics and more.
The time for endless debates on issues is over. We need to act now, we need to move forward with a new perspective, gain new insights and wisdom, and identify visionary solutions. We must be actively promoting change and transformation.
  
A recent study has proven that cities with 5G sWTF’s (Small Wireless Telecommunication Facilities) had a 79% increase in Covid infections, and a 94% higher death rate per million, than cities that did not. With or without Covid 19, 5G is going to be a disaster. Here is what you need to know.
5G is not about making Cell phone calls better. 5G is for “Information services”, (think broadband data, emails, downloading movies, etc.) and falls under title 1 of the FCC code.

Nature Provides the Fun  by Alex Francis ~ Manager at Wild Gemstones
Gazing at the delicate petals of a fragrant summer flower, one can’t help but be filled with wonder. It isn’t necessarily the science of flora reproduction or pollinator scavenging that causes one to feel so captivated. Nor is it necessarily the millions of years-old history of blooming evolution that has outlasted multiple mass extinction events on our planet. The sheer magic that happens at the very core of our existential awareness is due to something much simpler, requiring very little study or in-depth analysis. The fantastic power of flowers is that they hold....

The Positive Entry of Jupiter into Pisces by Stephanie Telesco
We open June, just having entered the 2nd Mercury Retrograde period of 2021. As noted in last month’s column, this is a time to attend to the “Re’s” of our world – reconsider, recreate, reinvent, reflect until June 22nd when Mercury will go direct. Then, what we have discovered & retooled in the weeks before can be applied to our lives. We are ready to move forward.
Magic Ahead!!
  
Acidic Body. Every client we have had over the last 12 years has tested Acidic. Drinking alkaline water alone is not going to change it. Eating raw fruits and vegetables can.
Fungus/Yeast/Candida. If you have heavy metals, you have yeast. The biggest contributor to yeast is those Silver and Gold Amalgam fillings. Yeast will prevent mercury from converting to Methyl mercury which is worse. Yeast, however needs sugar to survive. Your body will....

In my world possibilities are constantly presenting themselves for my consideration.

I offer Here, for your consideration, what is maybe a different perspective on all of this. One that I feel will empower many of you, right now to take charge, and step into your divine/personal/spiritual/energetic power during this lifetime.

How do you get out of your own way so you can receive all that you are calling in, be the person you know you came here to be and live in the spaciousness and freedom of your soul’s energy? The answer lies within your intention, your ability to trust your soul’s guidance and to relax your ego enough so that you don’t self sabotage.
The ego has been referred to as a “sly pirate”. It masquerades itself as the true you and much of the time you can’t tell whether it’s your soul that is guiding or the unhealed inner child that is afraid. The ego is directly connected....
  
In todays complicated society, there are two primary approaches to dealing with daily life, social media, our jobs, school and relationships.
These two approaches are:
1. Reactive approach- this is where our behavior is modified much like Pavlov’s dog (with positive reinforcement), or modified through fear-based tactics (often referred to as propaganda inundation). Our decisions are based upon these modifications.
2. Creative approach- making decisions based upon calm, centered and grounded observations, and the decisions that come from that basis.
These approaches are compounded by the effect they have upon our biological and emotional conditions. Living in fear base results in...
  
How Often Should You Trust Your Intuition? by Julie Matheson
Intuition is a big part of my life. I believe the more I listen to it, the more it talks to me. Conversely, I worry that when I don’t listen to it, my intuition might stop talking to me. I believe the more I tune into it the more it honors me with the information it has.
The catch is, intuition can only communicate with me when I listen to it. It can send me messages but until I stop, and register, “Oh this is my intuition. I need to listen right now” the voice gets ignored and the message goes unheard and opportunities get missed.
What is intuition really? I define it simply as a higher knowing from a higher, all encompassing...

Mobile Phone Addiction or Cell Phone Addiction is a new addiction for our modern times. Cell phones dominate the modern world. Cell phones are multifunctional devices. They act as phone, camera, game station, computer, video recorder and player, t.v., book, dictionary, map, GPS guide, calculator, watch timer, alarm, appointment book and more. The cell phone has become a powerful tool that makes some people feel it is indispensable. It is easy for some people to feel “lost” when the phone is not handy. There’s no doubt that excessive cell phone use is a problem, especially....
  
On the path of spiritual awakening the biggest obstacle for me, my fellow travelers and my clients have had to overcome is self doubt. As a child we are so clear at knowing what is best for us, which way to go, what is truth and what is a lie. Young children can read energy and determine truth from falsehood very quickly. Then the child begins to take on the beliefs of the parents, teachers, cultures, community, doctors and so-called authorities and they lose their innate knowing in themselves and give their power/trust over to others. Gradually a life is lived being dependent on the advice of others who are operating on a small percentage of truth themselves.
  
Seven Ways to Achieve Balance this Spring by Nancy Yearout
Spring is a time of growth, of new beginnings! The time of year when the flowers bloom and the rains wash away the old and reveal the new. Recent days have shown signs of Spring as the daffodils and the tulips are peaking their heads up towards the sun for their natural nourishment of growth and balance.
We humans are the same. We need certain things to help us grow and feel renewed. And most importantly a sense of balance in our lives.
As the weather warms and the days grow longer, we feel a sense of renewal. Some call it Spring Fever!

I don’t have enough fingers and toes to recount the times throughout adolescence my mom prodded me: “Why don’t you try journaling? Someday you’ll want to remember everything you did when you were younger.”
I’d retort, “Why would I do that? Shouldn’t I spend more time living my experiences and less time writing them down?”
Sometimes, to appease momma, I’d get a fresh book and write for a few days before tiring of it.
“It’s just not for me.”
And it wasn’t. Until I realized I was going about it all wrong.
  
How to Live a More Courageous Life by Kate Swoboda
On any given day, many of us wrestle with our fears. We might be contemplating a career change, telling someone we love them, or wanting to speak up for what’s right when we see injustice. But a voice within us pipes up saying that there’s no point, or that we aren’t really capable of creating the life or world we desire.
Whether you call it “fear” or some other name—anxiety, stress, discomfort, life challenges—the cycle often plays out in the same way. We have a desire for change, but our fear of what might happen or the worry that we are somehow not enough can keep us stuck.
In my new book, The Courage Habit, I argue that when it comes to dealing with fear, we often....
  
Joanne Wickenburg wrote insightfully in her article, “Astrology and the Seasons”, “It is from the seasonal changes created by the Sun’s movement through the Tropical Zodiac that early observers of the heavens began to note the correlating agricultural change and even human characteristics of people born at different times throughout the year. These are what we call the Sun signs.”
She continues: “The first day of spring is experienced when the Sun’s pathway meets the celestial equator, on that day, the first day of Aries begins. ……It is interesting to view the signs from a “seasonal” perspective to see how we live out or demonstrate the purpose of each season....
  
Our niece has a rescue-dog named Jack. Jack was neglected and abused before he came to live with her. Although she has had him about five years, he still cowers and does a timid, army-crawl toward her when she approaches him. Even though she is consistently kind to him he still isn’t completely sure that he can trust her.
Shock and trauma is like this. The effects from previous traumatic experiences remain in our cellular and emotional memory long after an incident happens. When a shocking event occurs, trapped emotional memory lies in waiting, unprocessed. It can then be re-triggered when a similar shocking event occurs. It’s true with both animals and humans.
As in the case of Jack, above, it can limit one’s perception of reality all the time, or in other cases, only when triggered. This is because....

2021, The Year of Thrive or Dive by Geri Habstritt
2021 is the year of the 5, which in ascended numerology, means Truth Revealed. Whatever is out of alignment with your innate truth will be up for healing. The throat and back of neck are the areas that will be most affected by this energy. It takes some awareness, but notice how your throat feels as you are getting ready to speak your truth or as you are swallowing someone else’s truth. Are your actions in alignment with what you know to be true? For example, I recently visited someone who was watching a show on the energy, messages and gifts.....

The Power of Creative Visualization by Daka Jag™
 Creative visualization is using the power of your mind and imagination to create what you want in life.  It is the ability to create an idea, a mental picture, or a feeling.  You can indeed learn to use your creative imagination in a more conscious way, using this power to truly attain what you want most in life.
You can work on any level, your goal may be physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual.  All will have results.  For example, let us say you are unhappy with your physical health.  You can begin by imagining the improvements you desire, an improved blood pressure, an improved aerobic ability, an increase in strength and flexibility, a reduction in weight.  You begin by relaxing....

Elections, Pandemics and Chaos Oh My! by Victoria Savage
Okay so we survived 2020 just to enter into 2021 with more violence, upheaval and division! Every news channel is spouting their certain type of fear and blame because fear is easily manipulated.
That’s the job of the media!
All of the media.
Each one has an agenda!
That agenda is to keep you in fear so they can direct your reactions to whatever their platform is. All this fear is circulating around each of us and we each share ours with the world around us and this expands because WE ARE ALL CONNECTED!!

Protection from the Pandemics with Complementary Care by Charles Lightwalker
Pandemics have repeatedly wiped out large numbers of the human population. History shows us the evidence.
About five thousand years ago, a epidemic wiped out a pre-historic village in China. The bodies of the dead were stuffed inside a house that was later burned down. All ages of people were found inside the house from babies to senior citizens. The archaeological site is now called “Hamin Mangha” and is famous in northeastern China. The epidemic happened so fast there was no time for proper burials and the site was not inhabited again.
The 2009 swine flu pandemic was caused by a new strain of H1N1 flu, that originated in Mexico in the spring of 2009 before spreading to the rest of the world. In one year, the flu virus infected as many as 1.4 Billion people....

Welcome to the New Year of 2021!

Both are important for Awakening to who you are and what your potentials are. The key is to move past fear.

Intuitive Static by Charles Lightwalker
We all can have distortion or static on our intuitive channel. They can be outside influences or internal influences. Outside disruptions can be caused by the conversation we had with our spouse, child, parent, boss, coworker, or client, the movie we just watched, the television shows we watch. Internally, they are created by what we are thinking moment to moment, our beliefs, habits and patterns.
