Divine Guidance

Divine Guidance is a message from your higher self to you. It is knowledge, wisdom, and guidance that come from the Divine Source. This Divine Source is within everyone, and everyone has the ability to receive Divine Guidance from his or her higher self.

Divine Guidance is capable of healing you and changing your life, and always knows the wisest course for you to follow.

You can avoid a lot of misfortune and mishaps in life, like what choices to make in love, if you don’t have access to Divine Guidance. If your heart is afraid and blocked, then guidance can’t come through to you, because when this guidance does come through, your mind disbelieves or discredits it, because of fear.

Divine Guidance comes from the purity of the heart. It comes from the place where the individual and the Divine are at one. If you are able to stay in that space of purity (what space?), the guidance comes freely to enrich your life.

The Purpose of Divine Guidance

The purpose of Divine Guidance is to bring you closer to your higher self and your life’s purpose. A lot of people in modern society have gotten so far away from their Divine roots, and have gotten lost in their minds and its fears. If you are like most people, when you experience divine guidance, you will find it very fulfilling to come back into direct contact with your Divine Source.
Divine Guidance brings us back into contact with our higher selves, and reminds us that we always have a direct contact to the Divine.

Divine Guidance puts you in direct connection with the Divine voice. That voice is not outside of you, it is within you, it is within your heart and always available to you. This Spiritual Source is ready to give you all of the knowledge, direction, and support that you need.

Most of the time, this direct contact with your Higher Self is ignored, so Divine Guidance seems difficult to achieve, and receive. In this world of the confused, fearful mind, Divine Guidance has become blocked in most people. So it is necessary to unblock this connection with their higher self.

Four Ways of Receiving Divine Guidance

Although the phrase divine guidance is commonly used in spirituality, it is important to understand its full meaning. After you express your heart’s desire to receive help in a specific area of your life, by calling on your higher self, your higher self will start to communicate with you freely.

Your higher self will communicate through feelings, words, visions, or thoughts. You will recognize these messages because they are always loving, peaceful and inspirational.

The four main ways you can receive divine guidance on how to improve a situation are as follows:

• Physically, through sensations, or through feelings and emotions.
• Through visions and dreams.
• Through knowings, revelations, and ideas.
• Through words spoken by others

Anything that you see, feel, think, or hear, can be a message, or a sign, from your higher self. If it makes you feel peaceful and happy, it is divinely inspired, and is for the benefit of your soul.

How Divine Guidance Often Appears

Divine guidance often appears as a sequence of repetitive occurrences, Such as continuously seeing the same number throughout your day. The messages that you receive will often make sense to only you.

For example, you might see symbols that are particularly meaningful to you, such as particular numbers like your birth date, butterflies, ladybugs, hearts, feathers or anything of sentimental value.

In the process of getting in touch with the divine guidance, you will become more sensitive to the gentle voice of your higher self, and the messages sent to you.

This process of receiving guidance occurs naturally and effortlessly, and will gradually teach you to be happy and to express who you truly are.

Benefits of Lucid Dreaming

Benefits of lucid dreaming

• Lucid dreaming is the dream equivalent of meditation. It is valuable in itself.
• Raised consciousness during dreams helps in resolving nightmares and generally helps with using dreams for self-development. This kind of use of lucid dreams implies taking active control over the flow of events in a dream.
• Lucid dreaming is a thrilling experience and a pleasant escape. When combined with the ability to direct your own dreams, it makes for the ultimate virtual reality.
• Lucid dreaming is sometimes considered as a skill needed for even more exciting skills, like astral traveling. Not given as an example by the respondents, but some people also consider lucid dreaming helpful for getting telepathic dreams. The "life's a dream" dreamers are typically lucid dreamers.
• Creativity - Dreams and especially lucid dreams are a great place for creativity. In lucid dreams, you got access to your subconscious mind, so you have access to a huge amount of creativity. For example, if you're working on a project, but got no clue on where to start, if you became lucid you can then ask: "Show me some good ideas for my project", and you might be surprised at the information you get. 
• No Limits - Imaging being able to do whatever you wanted to do. In lucid dreaming, you have absolutely no limits. Having no limits is one thing that makes lucid dreaming so enjoyable. You got the ability to do things that you can't ever do in waking life. Like being able to dream with no gravity. Yes, you can fly in lucid dreams. The possibilities are totally endless. You could be a billionaire, meet *Insert your favorite celebrity*, and even talk to your subconscious. Those are just a few of the things you can do with lucid dreaming. 
• Feel Amazing - A lot of times, after waking up from a lucid dream, you feel great. This is especially true after the first few times you have a lucid dream. There's nothing better than getting up after a lucid dream and thinking "I finally did it". It gives you a sense of well being because you just accomplished something big. The sense of well being tends to stay with you all day long, like you can take on anything the day might throw at you. You can call this the "lucid glow."

TELEKINESIS or PSYCHOKINESIS

Telekinesis means movement of objects with mind power. From my point of view , telekinesis is achieved by projecting a portion of your consciousness in the object that you want to move.
When this portion of your consciousness is melting and experiencing the object then movement is possible. One technique that works for telekinesis is to concentrate on the object , consider the object an extension of yourself , a part of your being. When you have a sense that you are projected in the object then you can attempt a movement . As you and the object are now the same , see the object as your third hand and move it.

"TELEKINESIS (TK): The ability to cause at a distance by cerebral-generated motive power the movement of matter or energy, inclusively or exclusively, solids, liquids, gases, plasmas, particles of matter, or particles or waves of energy. "

PSYCHOKINESIS (PK): The ability to cause at a distance or by physical touch using the mind's will power and imagination the extraordinarily profound movement or manipulation of matter, energy, or events.

Psychokinesis stems from the Greek words psyche meaning life or soul and kinesis meaning to move. Simply restated, "psychic" energy that has the ability to move things without the application of a tangible physical force. Energy can be measured but we can't always use our visible sight and the other senses to quantify validity. Many think the universal life-force energy is tapped and expended into the physical ability to move things. Energy and intent is most powerful. This energy can be viewed as water current where one controls or directs the flow and/or intensity of the flow. The energy to move objects directly relates to the focus of the mental energy.

The Body

"telekinesis is a very special mechanism of motion of objects, which (the motion) instead in our physical world, was initiated in a separate world called the "counter-world" (the counter-world is this other world, which religions used to call a world of spirits)."

As many know that there are many worlds and dimensions so this would also make some sense. In the many dimensions or "counter-world" as mentioned above, it is where shamans, mystics, saints, monks and magical adepts do their healing and magic. When they operate in this world, the two are blended and we see "miracles" such as objects appearing from nowhere, disappearing and reappearing, strange weather occurences, voices, animals and strange lights along with many other phenomenon.

Psychokinesis-PK and telekinesis-TK not only applies to everyday objects, but the physical and spiritual body moving from one realm to another or traveling any perceived distance from one place to another.

Translocation - Bilocation

Two terms that closely parallels and directly relates to PK and TK is bilocation and translocation. The "kinesis" of energy can help explain what what these terms are and demonstrates the "movement of energy consciousness".

The term bilocation is mainly defined by a person who is in two places simultaneously as a projected physical double in some form on earth. One moves their energy into some manfested form consciously as in astral traveling or unconsciously as in person who is dying.

The term translocation is defined as being more transdimensional and applied to out of body experiences as well as UFO's that come from dimensions other than our own. Translocation is about traversing dimensions beyond space-time to become physical in that particular dimension. The perspective of being seeen is from that dimension. This could apply to Ancient Beings and apparitions becoming manifest here, their dimension to ours.

In doing any shamanic work, traveling to other worlds lends a deepened appreciation of how energy and consciousness moves.

Objects

Mental activity seems to effect this ability: puberty, major life changes, stress, emotional development and behavior issues including spiritual stages and development. The brain is a pretty complex network of energy! On the Physics and Consciousness web site, it's illustrated that the subatomic particles are always working in conjunction with other particles and thought waves are a powerful force not only in "thinking and cognition" but as real tangible energy, moving, flowing and acting like water. Powerful stuff. It is this "mental energy" that we exuding, controlling the flow, of that universal energy onto physical objects - moving things! Chi, Prana, the Chakras all play an energetic role.

We can assume that telekinetic energy is natural, based upon laws of physics. If it's natural why can't everyone do it? It could be, innate, genetics, soul purpose, spiritual 'level', training, purpose and reason, responsibility...we can only speculate.

It seems to be the consensus that this ability "seems to be" tapped naturally in some people by:

• being still within for clarity
• Art of Being Aware
• being in the empty void of the mind
• letting go or unresolved issues (mental stuff)
• Innate abilities

Again, this changes the mental faculty allowing one to be more open and aware to the universal flow. People also have this ability when a certain trained mind set is achieved, knowing a certain frequency niche like tuning to a radio station. It is about focus, attention and clear thoughts. It also helps to use very vivid imagery. You "see" the object moving which in turn, directs your thoughts more powefully toward that object.

"The energy forming the basis of the telekinetic motive power emanates from the head region, not the hands, and not the body as a whole. It activates briefly in a controllable on or off mode by means of a learned mental triggering process and requires a short duration of metabolic recharging, with an increase of effect observed the longer the rest or inactivation period. An eventual headache is a side effect of many activations in a row."

Practice

There seems to be many aspects of "training" this telekinetic ability, trying to move floating objects, influencing pendulums or anything hanging, altering a compass direction, rolling pencils, bending spoons, even the use of divining rods in dowsing. Some imagine a direct tunnel of energy to the object. Some become the object. Others may make hand movements to help influence the energy. Some merely visualize movement. A good object to practice with are those metal toys that balance on a pivot, on a base, they are free moving and are balanced perfectly which reflects the tiniest movement. Those pinwheels that children play with can be good too.

Everyone has the potential for this ability. In order to be a body builder or a marathon runner we need practice building up to it. Consider it mental excercising. And don't take it too seriously. Like with meditating, if you try try TRY you're too focused on the trying and not the doing.

Everything has an energetic field, and we are merely energy condensed. It's very possible with practice, one can train the mind to do this ability, if it's not somehow naturally innate without practice.

It seems moving objects can become a milestone in spiritual development with many striving to accomplish it. Some see it as a badge of "look what I can do". You may ask yourself honestly why you want do this. Once you've achieved moving objects you'll ask yourself..."Now What?" Remember, it's not about accomplishment.

There may be reasonings to strengthen kinetic energy, but none as powerful and long-lasting as being aware of the energy that is around you. The awareness of your thoughts, your intents and how energy moves and reacts in your surroundings is important. Knowing there are vast muliverses to explore expands our consciousness awareness of ourselves and aids in defining who we are and what we are about.

The kinesis family of terms is about being aware of the movement and manipulation of matter and energy from one place to another, either this world or in others. It's not the "power" of doing such, but our awareness of energetic interactions regardless of time-space restrictions.

Mediumship or Channeling

Mediumship, or channeling, is about connecting those who have gone on and crossed over into spirit with those who are still here in the physical world. It can also be about connecting two living souls, channeling information from one to the other.

There are different types of mediumship. Some mediums actually see spirits and hear them as if they were physically present. Others see and hear them as mental images. It's also possible for some to combine the two.

Spirits don't appear "on demand." Sometimes they come, and sometimes they don't. I like to say that there really is "life after death" – in other words, spirits are not just hanging around out there in the ether waiting for someone on this side to contact them. They have things to do. When they do come through, they don't always answer specific questions. You won't always get an answer to, "Where did Aunt Sadie leave her will?" These types of issues become unimportant when someone has crossed. What is important from their point of view, is life itself, and the lessons their loved ones are learning. Sometimes they're able to manifest without the intervention of a medium – playing with electronics, turning computers or lights on or off. Other times, they can manifest as the feeling of a loving presence when someone in the family is feeling particularly down or distressed.

Mediumship and Channeling

The subtle bodies of a medium are more loosely connected together than they are in a regular person. This allows the subtle bodies to be easily disconnected and enables a non-physical entity to take temporary control of the medium's entire physical-etheric body or a large portion of their etheric body:

• The medium's physical-etheric body can be temporarily possessed by a non-physical entity to enable it to communicate with physical humans. The medium's own emotional-mental body is displaced whilst the non-physical entity is in possession.
• The medium can temporarily relinquish some matter from their etheric body to allow a non-physical entity to manifest. The vibratory state of the etheric matter can be slowed down so that the etheric manifestation becomes visible to the human eye. Some of the etheric matter can even be temporarily condensed into physical matter to enable the entity to interact with the physical world.

Mediumship should not be considered a psychic power because it actually involves relinquishing one's power. A loosely connected subtle body is not a gift or a blessing; like clairvoyance it is a disability (but even more so). Mediumship is extremely detrimental to one's long-term physical, emotional and mental health, so the practice is not recommended.
Additional problems arise when mediums communicate with discarnate entities to acquire information about the spirit world (emotional world). People don't suddenly become more knowledgeable or enlightened when they die, so why would anyone believe a "dead" person over a "living" person? Any emotional-world entity that claims to be an ascended master, oversoul or archangel and offers "esoteric" knowledge is a fraud that cannot be trusted. True ascended masters do not communicate through mediums. The lowest world they operate in is the mental world, and they communicate by direct thought transfer into the minds of their advanced students (who remain fully present and fully lucid during the communication).
Channeling differs from mediumship in that the emotional-world entity does not take possession of the person's entire body; they just take control of the voice-box or the arm (in the case of automatic writing). True ascended masters do communicate in this way – they do not take control of anyone's body or any part of their body.
Less than 20% of psychics, mediums and channelers are completely genuine, so it is no wonder that they rarely stand up to scientific scrutiny. Of the discarnate entities that seek to communicate through psychics, mediums and channelers, approximately 50% are actively trying to mislead us by spreading false or distorted information, 45% are well meaning but ill-informed so can tell us very little, and only 5% are authentic spirit guides who provide trustworthy and useful information.
Clairvoyants and mediums often call the physical world the "material world", and the emotional world the "spiritual world". This implies that there are only two worlds and gives the impression that the beings in the higher "spiritual world" are more knowledgeable than we are in the "material world", but actually the reverse is true. Emotional consciousness contributes nothing to our understanding of reality; it is merely a driving-force to activate our mental consciousness. Beings that permanently reside in the emotional world do so because they have not activated their mental consciousness, so they know very little about the true nature of reality.

Out of Body Experience (OBE) or Astral Projection

Out of Body Experience - What is it?
An "out of body experience" (OBE) can be defined as the process of transiently separating the consciousness (spirit) from the physical body, such that the person and world are observed from outside of the body. OBE's are also known as astral projections. There are several ways people perceive an out of body experience, including dreams, daydreams, and memories. People have reported having out of body experiences while under the influence of drugs or induced by some sort of trauma, as well as near death experiences. Astral projection is taught through books, the internet, and religious techniques. An out of body experience is said to be clearer than a dream or daydream. Those who practice astral projections claim that their senses are enhanced, allowing them to see and feel with more clarity and without physical constraint. The origins of out of body experiences are unknown. However, OBE's have been practiced for many years in several different cultures. The New Age Movement is widely known for promoting and using this practice.

An out-of-body experience (OBE) is characterized by a feeling of departing from one’s physical body and observing both one’s self and the world from outside one’s body. The experience is quite common in dreams, daydreams, and memories, where we quite often take the external perspective. Some OBEs coincide with lucid dreaming. Some people experience an OBE while under the influence of an anesthetic or while semi-conscious due to trauma. Some people have an OBE while under the influence of drugs. OBEs have been induced by  electrically stimulating the right angular gyrus (located at the juncture of the temporal and parietal lobes).*  Finally, some people experience an OBE when they are near death (near-death experiences or NDEs).

Out of Body Experience - Why Do People Seek It?
Out of body experiences are sought after by those who desire knowledge or power in the spiritual realm, endeavor to help people, are curious, or want to be entertained. In some cases, people actually seek OBE's to cause harm to others. For the most part, an out of body experience is desired for a spiritual reason, such as reaching a higher level of consciousness or enlightenment.

4 Out of Body Experience Symptoms You May Know

For a lot of people who are not familiar with out of body experience symptoms, these signs can be very scary. For the beginner who has not experienced it, fear can get in the way of experiencing this amazing ability. That’s why it is good to know some signs or symptoms that often turn up.

Sleep paralysis

The first sign of out of body experience symptoms is sleep paralysis, getting used to this symptom is very difficult. In everyday life, our physical and psychical self convene in one coherent feeling. In sleep paralysis, your mind is awake, but your body is sleeping. You may want to, but you won’t be able to move any part of your body. Just like someone threw a very heavy cover over you. The key is to relax, and embrace the power of your mind wandering, not your legs.

Energetic charge/vibrations

There is a big chance you will feel some kind of vibration. Some call it vibrations, others call it tingle. But for sure, it is some kind of energetic flicker, not visible to other people watching (if there are any). It means that your body is not actually shivering, you just feel electrified. Intensity may vary from slight trembling to strong pulse like shaking. And, of course, there is a chance you don’t feel any.

Undefined sounds or noises

Just like the vibrations, the following symptom cannot be precisely explained. It’s good to highlight that the two usually go together. Those are undefined sounds or noises. People describe them as buzzing, humming or whirring. Also, as white noise, obscure murmur or a train rushing by. The only thing that’s clear from the depiction is how much these sounds deviate from person to person. And not only in quality, but in quantity too. They could be pretty loud, but it’s unlikely that the intensity will be the same throughout the whole experience.

Out of body experience symptoms: Sinking into Bed feeling

Another out of body experience symptoms that may appear is sinking into bed feeling. It can be disturbing, especially combined with body numbness, as you have no control over your body or current situation. Also, if you’re outside of your bedroom, you could be sinking into the ground, the sensation is not bed-related. This symptom comes in few variations. One is the exact opposite. You’re not sinking – but floating or levitating above the bed or ground. And another one is spine-chilling, as it has the element of surprise – a sudden fall.

The 7-Step Rope Technique For Astral Projection

Step 1: Relax

Relax your mind and body. You may choose to meditate or perform a series of very deep breaths. In and out, always very slowly. Make sure you inhale deeply and that your breaths are not shallow.

If you know a good body relaxation meditation, use it. If not, you can tense your muscles and release them one at a time. Work from your toes to the top of your head.

Step 2: Get into a hypnotic state

After you feel fully relaxed, you need to enter a hypnotic state where your mind is at the edge of sleep and no further. Now lie down and focus on an object. Stare at it until you can visualize it perfectly even with your eyes closed.

Step 3: Get into a deeper state of relaxation

Now it’s time to enter a deeper state of relaxation. Your eyes are still closed and you are still visualizing your chosen object. But now you look around you with your eyes closed. Gaze into the darkness.

After a while you may see light patterns dance across your eyes. Just ignore them and they will go away. Once they disappear you’ve entered a deeper state of relaxation. You will be so relaxed that you are no longer aware of your physical body. Once you reach this level, it’s time for step 4.

Step 4: Enter a state of vibration

This is the most vital step and it’s when you enter into a state of vibration. This state may take longer if you are new to this. When you do begin to feel the vibrations, your astral body has begun to leave your physical body. Just acknowledge this and feel the vibrations.

Step 5: Control the vibrations

Focus on the vibrations as they travel throughout your body. Using your willpower, control them with your mind. As you feel them, try to control the frequency of the waves as well as stopping and starting them. Once you master changing the frequency and you are sure that you can induce them when needed, you’re ready for step 6.

Step 6: Imagine the rope

Here is where you will exert your control and willpower. Imagining that there is a long rope hanging right above you. Without opening your eyes or moving your physical body, visualize yourself reaching up towards the rope.

Once you grab a hold of the rope, bring your hand back into your physical body, slow down the vibrations, and end the session.

After you become fully alert and awakened, move on to step 7.

Step 7: Rinse and repeat – now let’s do the whole body

Now that you’ve done a partial separation you’re ready to try the whole body. Repeat the previous 6 steps but this time, don’t stop at just one hand. Imagine your other hand coming out of your physical body and reaching for the rope. Slowly place hand over hand on the rope as if you were pulling yourself up.

You may feel a little dizzy at this point and the vibrations will buzz at a higher frequency. Often people here feel paralyzed or shrink back into their physical bodies. But concentrate on climbing the rope. Don’t stop until you feel your entire self separating from your body.


Finally you’re free! You will find yourself hovering over your body at this point.

Telepathy

Telepathy is the transference of sending or receiving thoughts from one living being to another. Besides using telepathy for person to person communication, you are can communicate with a pet and or plant. We have all communicated telepathically with our friends, family, co-workers and even animals and may not have been aware of doing so. Learning how to develop your telepathic abilities takes practice but is quite easy but does require patience and an open mind.

What you are describing is called telepathy, which is mind-to-mind communication also known as mind reading. It is not usual for most people, but it could be. The Universe communicates through telepathy, and so do animals. Man is the only creature that does not regularly use this innate sense.

It is widely known that twins exhibit telepathic connections; some twins can even be slower to develop speech because they have such an effective way of communicating with each other mentally. Language is not really an advanced form of communication. If you have ever listened to someone speaking a language that you do not understand, it is easy to recognize that spoken language is really just a series of grunts and tones that allow certain groups of people to communicate with each other based on the accepted decoding of these particular grunts and tones. The big problem with language is that it is often open to interpretation and misunderstanding.

Telepathy is direct communication. Telepathy can often be in the form of images or symbols. Animals communicate in this type of visual language, so if you don't want your dog on the couch or your cat on the kitchen counter, then don't think about the couch or the counter when instructing them. Instead, visualize your pet doing exactly what you would like and what would make you happy, then send them that mental picture. Both domestic and wild animals can pick up on thoughts and energies, so it is important to set clear intentions around them.

The Universe also communicates telepathically, giving us messages through dreams, visions, symbols, and also audible messages, like Joan of Arc hearing voices from God. We all have this gift available to us to varying degrees. What most people do not realize is that telepathy is two-way communication, and  the Universe is constantly reading our mind also. This is why working with visualization and affirmation is so important, because it sends a clear message to the Universe about what you want to manifest. If you do not have a clear focus and intention, then the Universe reads your thoughts and delivers your reality in response to your mental chatter, which is often based on fears, worries, judgments, etc.

Types of Telepathy

Telepathy has been defined as direct communication between minds. It is believed that there are three different types of telepathy:

Instinctual or feeing based telepathy

This type of telepathy is the most commonly experienced and is often felt between family members, close friends and even with animals.

In fact, the animal kingdom uses instinctual telepathy as its main form of communication and for survival.

As the name suggests, instinctual telepathy is most closely related to intuitive gifts and often people who are intuitive hold this telepathic ability naturally.

Instinctual or feeling based telepathy relies on the third eye chakra or the solar plexus chakra and can manifest as a “gut feeling” or as simply a knowing.

Mental or mind-to-mind telepathy

This form of telepathy is claimed to be the truest form of telepathy as it involves thought transference between two conscious minds.

This goes beyond people just knowing what you are thinking and is actually a way to have a conversation with either pictures, symbols or words without saying anything aloud.

Using this type of telepathy, messages can be communicated across rooms, countries and even into other galaxies or dimensions.

This type of telepathy uses the crown chakra which is the center for telepathic communication.

Spiritual or soul-to-soul telepathy

Spiritual telepathy is the highest form of telepathy and can be similar to mediumship or channelling.

Basically it involves using your mind as an intermediary between the physical and spiritual worlds.

For this reason, to achieve spiritual telepathy one has to be connected and aligned with all chakras.

Using spiritual telepathy, one soul can send information to another soul. This information may be received consciously or unconsciously.

Usually spiritual telepathy occurs between Twin Flames or members of your soul group.

Spiritual telepathy can also be used to communicate with spirits and those who have crossed over.

This type of telepathy can usually only be received through some type of meditative or dream like state.

What Are The Benefits?

• You are able to communicate with the plant kingdom, animal kingdom or even other dimensional beings such as crossed over loved ones, spirit guides, the higher self or even the angelic realm.
• One might say, telepathy is more of an accurate way of communication than the spoken word. Ever feel like someone is saying one thing yet they are sending you different telepathic messages?
• Sometimes words do not do justice to the message you are trying to convey.

Which Are You – A Better Sender or Receiver?

Some of us are stronger receivers of information and for some of us our strength is receiving messages from others more clearly.

You Are A Natural Receiver If…

• You pick up milk for example or some item that someone at home may need but isn’t able to call you to ask you to pick up the item?
• You contact a personal friend or family member just as they were thinking about you.
• Solutions to your dilemmas naturally pop into your head without any effort.
• People often tell you that you took the words right out of their mouth?

You Are A Natural Sender If..

• You are thinking about how nice it would be if someone brought you a cup of coffee and lo and behold someone stops by with a cup of Joe.
• People are easily influenced by you and your mood.
• Your pets follow commands without you speaking a single word.

Automatic Writing

Automatic writing, also known as Spirit writing, is a psychic gift and may be the one of the easiest psychic abilities to develop. Successful automatic writing is a powerful experience.

Automatic writing is a way to channel information (including predictions and prophecy) and spirit energy through writing. It is the ability to allow intuition from outside you to flow through you. Automatic writing is a form of intuition that has been around for thousands of years. But it wasn't until the late 1800's and early 1900's that it became better known through the worldwide spread of the Spiritualism movement.

Automatic writing is an energy link that allows you to communicate intuitively. Some psychics use pens and paper, computers, or even Ouija boards to relay messages from the other side. Any means of communications or sending a message works.

Automatic writing works, regardless of whether you write on paper or type from a word processor onto a computer screen. Some psychics that have been doing automatic writing for years are more comfortable writing with pen to paper. There are other psychics that feel that the digital link of a computer allows for a stronger connection.

Someone who is uncertain about their intuition may want to develop automatic writing abilities. Sometimes the physical act of writing allows you to open up an entirely new way to communicate.

Don’t overanalyze. Some people believe that the messages are coming through from their "higher self", or the Spirit of someone that has passed from the physical world. It doesn't matter what form it takes. When you seek Spirit, you will find Spirit.

Be intentional. When you meditate and pray, ask for contact with a higher energy. Doing this ensures that only the highest forms of spirit will come to your aid. Automatic writing is a form of channeling that involves focusing your consciousness to receive inspired information.

Spirit writing is to give you direction and guidance. That you receive direction is the important thing, not the source of the direction. When you attempt automatic writing, you may hear your voice, another voice or nothing. Sometimes there may be more than one spirit present. Don’t worry about the form it takes. Try to keep an elevated, calm attitude.

How to Write Automatically

Set your clear intention before you start. Call in your guides or angels and let them know you are exploring your abilities and would very much appreciate them keeping you under their protective wing. Become aware of your breath and relax your body – but don’t get to pompous with the ceremony, especially on your first attempts. It is more important that you try to enjoy yourself and have some fun with it.

Trips to the spiritual playground should fill you with joy!

Find it easier with pen and paper, while others prefer to touch.

Give permission to your personal guide or your higher self to use your hand to communicate. Invite them to use it. Go for it!

And then let the pen do what it wants. Look away from the page and let your hand run automatically. Do your best to keep your logical thoughts out of the process, but if it keeps jumping in, try counting to ten repeatedly out loud to entertain it while your hand intuitively scribbles away.

Do not filter, adjust, summarize or contemplate any of what comes through. Close your eyes if it helps. MESSY WRITING IS OK!

So what if the writing is illegible or one long sentence? ‘Punctuation’ is over-rated anyway!

When you are done, give thanks. Disconnect from spirit and draw your energy within so you are again standing strongly in your own power. Wrap up the automatic writing ritual in your own way … and only then re-read what you have written (or your guide has – I should say).

It may be nonsensical garbled gobbledygook – or it may surprise you with truth. It may be in a different style of handwriting than yours, or even another language!

And just like with absolutely everything else in life – you will get better with practice.

If automatic writing intrigues you, don’t just try it once, twice or even ten times before you give up because you haven’t yet channeled the lost scrolls of Atlantis.

If you enjoy writing, or wish you could channel, play with the process of automatic writing as a tool for creative expression – with the potential for accessing a greater wisdom.

Lucid Dreaming

Lucid dreaming means dreaming while knowing that you are dreaming. The state of lucid dreaming or “lucidity” sometimes starts at the beginning of a dream. The dreamer understands that the experience is not occurring in physical reality, but in ones dream. Often this understanding is noticed once one is either floating, flying or meeting a deceased relatives. In some instances one may lucid dream randomly during ones dream, suddenly realizing that you can control the settings. The state of lucidity can range from high and low. If the dreamer is at a high level, one might be cognizant of all the details of the dream. You will not be in any danger as you move with free will possibly manipulating your dream settings. However the low lucid state is quite different. In the lower frequency of lucidity, one may be able to float or fly around, though will still feel one is in the dream.

5 Life-Changing Benefits of Lucid Dreams

1. Fun

This is probably the most simple attraction of lucid dreaming, and yet it can give the most fundamental, primal joy. Imagine the most vivid, open-ended video game you’ve ever played or even conceived of. Lucid dreaming, when properly practiced and mastered, is like the most realistic VR simulation you can imagine, combined with a degree of complexity and open possibility that make GTA V look like pong. Want to fight Nazis on a flying motorcycle? Overthrow an empire? Visit distant planets? It’s all possible. Fun might not be the deepest or most sophisticated reason for wanting to get into lucid dreaming, but just one session battling ninjas on Jupiter will give you the kind of encouragement you need to further pursue the practice and achieve some of its more abstract and holistic benefits.

2. Overcoming Anxiety

Lest you think lucid dreaming is just a playground of escapist fantasy, a bubbling cauldron of Saturday morning cartoons and comic books, let’s remember that it’s also a practice that can have immense benefit for your everyday life. Lucid dreaming can assist in overcoming anxiety surrounding meetings, activities or events. Everyone suffers from anxiety to some degree—with some more affected than others—and lucid dreaming can be an invaluable tool for tackling it.

Lucid dreaming personally helped me to tackle a crippling anxiety about public speaking. This is one that I’m sure plenty of people can relate to. I’d be asked to read aloud, or defend an argument in front of a crowd, and the anxiety would come in floods. My blood would turn to cement, my heart would kick like an over-clocked engine, and the sweat would coat me in a fine, sparkly sheen.

One of the greatest opportunities offered to by lucid dreaming, however, is the chance to practice. Being able to test-run scenarios that terrify you, and then just being able to hit the reset button upon waking up, is fantastically useful for dealing with situations that stress you out. Slowly but surely, as I commanded troops and spoke to masses in my sleep, public speaking when I was awake became a little easier. Today, I’m a passionate public speaker, and can thank my lucid dreaming trial runs for much of my confidence.

3. Communicating With Yourself

I’ve been enamored with the idea of the subconscious since I first read Freud’s The Interpretation of Dreams at the age of 13. The idea that there’s some powerful, primal, hidden part of yourself that influences your actions without your knowledge absolutely fascinated me. Although it was Freud that captured my interest, it was Jung that would entrance me with his conception of the subconscious as the model for God and the source of ageless, eternal memory and wisdom.

As the Delphic Oracle would suggest, the basis of all knowledge and achievement is to first “Know Thyself” and communicate with your subconscious. Luckily, lucid dreaming provides an excellent venue for this, as your dreams are the stage on which your subconscious puts on its nightly, fevered and mysterious plays. If you can spot that it’s all a set-up, it doesn’t take much to peel back the curtain and have a chat with the director. I have a friend, an avid lucid dreamer, who has gotten to know his unconscious mind so well in his lucid dreams that he’s personified and named the “entity” that creates his dreams, and often uses this model to consult with his unconscious mind whenever a tough decision is to be made. This form of communication can offer immense insight into yourself, and any unconscious motivations or pain that you might not be fully aware of, and which might be negatively affecting your life.

4. Getting in Touch With Spirituality

From Native American shamans to Tibetan dream yogis to West African mystics, dreams have always been an inexorable part of humanity’s connection with the divine, the transcendent and the mysterious. And today, at a time when organized and dogmatic religion is wavering, and many are looking for an alternative, lucid dreaming can provide a gateway to spirituality that is personal and intuitive. Our dreams can present opportunities for transcendent and beautiful experiences, as well as the perfect place to examine ideas and concepts in an outside-the-box fashion, making them ideal for testing the spiritual waters for those who are turned off by traditional conceptions of religion.

Lucid dreaming, when mastered, can be an intense and symbolically rich experience, and once one understands how dream images can often draw from human mythology and world religion, the spiritual dimension to dreams can become an immediate way to connect with whatever idea of “God” or Oneness or transcendent principle you might be interested in. Even if you’re not at all attracted by spirituality, lucid dreaming can give you an idea of the kind of profound, transcendent and connective states of mind that drive people toward religion and spirituality.

5. Inspiration

If there’s one thing to which dreams are more closely tied than spirituality, it’s artistic inspiration. From the Greek belief in the Muses communicating through dreams, right through to the influence that dreams had on the poetry of Edgar Allen Poe, dreams have long been regarded as a mystical and ethereal source of inspiration for art. The way in which dreams combine vivid images, complex symbols and strange premises provides fertile ground for artistic “Eureka!” moments. As a writer, I’ve lost count of how many short stories, metaphors and poems have shot straight from the soil of my subconscious. And artistic inspiration isn’t the only kind of insight afforded by intense exploration of dreams: many historical scientific breakthroughs have also emerged from dreams, from the discovery of the double helix structure in DNA to some of the most complex formulations of Indian mathematics genius Srinivasa Ramanujan. Dreams have brought us some of the most remarkable advances in human history—and who knows what you might accomplish with power over your dreams?

Other Benefits of Lucid Dreaming:

* Able to confront your fears first hand

* Becoming more creative

* Great way to improve your confidence level

* Become more in tuned with yourself and others around you

* Experience a different way to dream

Lucid Dreaming Steps:

Step 1 - Repetition:

Though out the day  working or at home you must practice repetition. You will have to keep asking yourself “am i dreaming right now?”. After a couple tries an hour it might sink into your head that you are not dreaming. This repetitive thought process helps you unknowingly remember this when your dreaming.

Step 2 - Record Your Dreams:

You must learn how to record your dreams when you wake up. Keeping a dream journal is vital because it improves and expands your dream capability. Once you are able to remember the events and symbols in your dream you have a better chance getting to that lucid state. Taking the time and going through your previous recorded dreams before bed helps build a sence of awareness when your in a dream state.

Step 3 – Control Your Sleep:

Controlling your dreams consists of being mindful of your sleep schedule. Changing your sleep behaviour will greater your chances of having a lucid dream. Scientists reveled the lucid dreaming works best when taking a quick nap after you have gotten up from a long sleep. Randomly interfering with your sleep schedule usually increases Lucid dreaming as well.

Step 4 - Believe:

Start believing in your dreams and the significance behind them. People who feel a dream is just a dream would have trouble trying to lucid dream. You must understand the symbols and the mystic power behind them. Try your best to remain positive and confident. You must have a desire to want feel lucid.

Step 5 - Meditation:

For thousands of years meditation has been directly linked for human inner peace. Learning how to meditate is a great way to build your awareness on in your conscious and unconscious world. Practicing mindful meditation at least 10 minutes a day can increase states of lucid dreaming.

Step 6 – Conscious Mind Awareness:

The most important step is training your “Conscious Mind”.  You want to start by becoming more aware of your daily surroundings and the objects around them. Any items in your walking life that you would usually over look, now has to be taken into consideration. Anything from the tiniest detail that was once overlooked like stop signs to billboards, now needs attention. You must observe everything in full detail. This means the color, shape and feelings of objects so  when it appears in your dream it will connect.  Dreaming about an object that you analyzed in detail in your walking life you can apply it to your dream to see what is real and what is not. Once you can convince your mind that its just a dream the fun starts. Stretching your awareness in your day will help you gain more control of your dreams. You don’t need to keep focus on every single detail in your life because it would drive you mad. Just start with a couple of small observations a day that you would normally never look at in detail.

How To Stay In Your Lucid in Dreams:

The hardest part about lucid dreams are trying to stay in them.  Learning the proper technique provided below will turn an armature dreamer to a experienced one.  If trained properly you can last up to 30 minutes in the lucid state.

Relax – Relaxing is key when you want to stay longer in your fun lucid dream.  Most of the time we tend to get over excited and wake up from sleep.  In order to achieve a long period on lucidity you must calm your mind.

Hand Movement -Once relaxed state rub try and remember to rub you hands together.  This help prolong the lucid dream because its constantly stimulating the conscious brain.  Doing this technique you can last up to 10 to 30 minutes in a lucid state.

Focus -Focus on your hand in your lucid dream.  Don’t loose track of them, keep them in front of you.  Also focus on wanting to be in your dream.   Keep repeating out loud “attention or focus” and you will become more in tuned with the dream for a longer period of time.

 Spelling Test – Think of spelling word or doing an easy math question. This will help engage the logical part of your brain when your loosing focus of the dream.

Circles – Going around in circles helps you ground your awareness in your lucid dream which in turn brings  you to a new dream scene.

Clairolfaction/Clairalience (Psychic Sense of Smelling)

The Psychic Sense of Clairolfactance

Clairalience is the psychic sense of smelling, (also known as clairescence). A person with this form of extra-sensory perception is able to smell energy or gain psychic knowledge through the physical sense of smell. Most of the time, they are the only person in a group/space who is able to smell the etheric fragrance.

The gift of clairolfaction or clairolfactance can be useful for discerning spirits. One may "smell a skunk" so to speak or sense an unpleasant odor coming from a person who has detrimental energy in their field or sickness in their body. But, it is not just the foul odor of contamination that can be sensed by those who have this ability. Some people have reported smelling roses, lilacs, or other heavenly fragrances associated with angels when a loved one passes. My husband and I are both able to smell cigarette smoke when the spirit of a particular "deceased" loved one visits our home.

Sometimes this ability is referred to as claireolfactory or claireolfactant because it is believed that the olfactory nerve is involved in perceiving these astral smells.

Distinctive smells have long been associated with a variety of paranormal and psychic phenomena. Many mediums specifically rely on their ability to ‘smell spirit’ in order to validate loved ones who have crossed over, or to identify the presence of spiritual entities.

Some psychics also use smell to gain insight into events of the past, present and future. This unusual ability is known as the extra-sensory ability or psychic gift of clairolfaction. Other interchangeable terms used to identify this ‘clair sense’ is clairosmesis, clairalience, clairessence and clairscent. They all refer to the same psychic ability, namely ‘clear smelling’.

Clairolfaction is a form of extra-sensory perception (ESP) that enables the gifted person to receive psychic or paranormal information by means of ‘psychic smelling’. It is, however, important to note that a person with this ability does not smell any real odors or fragrances.

Psychics with this extra-sensory gift are able to ‘smell’ beyond the normal range of the smelling sense. There is no physical source for such a smell, and other people in the room would usually not smell anything, unless they are also gifted.

Most psychics and mediums have a combination of extra-sensory abilities which, apart from the sense of olfaction or smell, may include clairvoyance (vision or seeing), clairsentience (somatosensation or sensing), clairaudience (audition or hearing), clairgustance (gustation or tasting), claircognizance (knowing). Additionally, some experts also prefer to identify two “sub-senses” within the realm of clairsentience, namely clairempathy (emotion or feeling),  and clairtangency (tactition or touching, or psychometry).

Clairolfaction is typically accompanied by clairgustance (clear taste). It would make sense that this partnership exists on a spiritual level, since our normal sense of taste and smell also go hand-in-hand. You will therefore find that many clairolfactory psychics also experience associated tastes, together with the relevant smells. Clairalience is also closely associated with clairsentience (clear sensing).

Clairolfactory psychics are in essence able to ‘smell energy’. Everything in the Universe consists of energy vibrating at different frequencies. It may very well be that with clairolfaction certain energy vibrations could stimulate the odor-detecting receptors of the human nervous system in people who are gifted.

What possibilities do exist?

·    Smelling diseases

·    Smelling shortages

·    Smelling the smell of a dead person

·    Smelling a smell of someone who is going to die

·    Smelling that something isn't good/healthy for you

·    Smelling things you see

·    Other?

·    Smelling diseases

When a person with clairolfaction ability, smells a disease by a person or animal, the person smells the (negative) energy that is emanated by the sick organ. Because every disease emanates a different energy, the kind of disease can be recognized. When you smell a disease for the first time it would be difficult to determine what it is.

It is well-known that dogs can trace cancer by humans. These dogs are clairolfaction.

·    Smelling shortages

Every person needs his own basic quantity of food, if the body or mind don't want getting trouble. The quantity and composition of the basic quantity differs from person to person. Each person needs other products. Nobody is the same. The body will function worse with shortages and with to much of certain food. the energy that is needed of a certain product (for example a specific vegetable or fruit) will be present in the aura of a person. The paranormal person can possible smell this emanation in the aura, and the nose of that person will transform the energy of the shortage in a certain smell of a certain product. What rests is a right interpretation what is meant with the smell.

It also occurs that if someone is smelling a product, it means that someone has to much energy of that product in his body and must not eat to much of it.

·    Smelling the smell of a dead person

Every person has a certain smell with himself. People love also some particular smell. When spirits are present in a room, they can make themselves known by a smell. This smell can be connected to a person that past away that loved or had that smell. This smell can't be detected by 'normal' noses.

·    Smelling a smell of someone who is going to die

Some people with the ability of clairolfaction can sense the 'smell of death'. In the days/weeks/months before a person is dying, the energetic body of the person is coming apart from the physical body. With this process some energy comes free, which can be received in the nose which translates it in a unique smell. Other people do not sense this smell. The person who is going to die, appears to have this smell with him.

·    Smelling that something isn't good/healthy for you

Another possible ability of clairolfaction is smelling of something is healthy to eat or not. For example pâté, this has a very specific smell. When the pâté smells different by clairolfaction, it is known the pâté isn't healthy to eat anymore. Another person, who doesn't have clairolfaction, just smells and doesn't find anything strange or wrong about it. The person with clairolfaction ability gets the smell of the product in the nose. With this smell the person also gets the energy of the product in the nose. In this way the person smells the energy of the product.

·    Smelling things you see

Another possible characteristic that a person with the ability of clairolfaction can have is that he smells the smell of something he sees. For example when he watches television and sees the pictures of a stable, he smells the horses. Pictures of seawater and he smells the sea. Or if a person is seen, the smell of the person is smelled in the noise. And so on.

Clairgustance (clear taste)

Clairgustance or ‘clear taste’ is probably the most unusual of all the psychic phenomena. It is a form of extra-sensory perception (ESP) that allows the gifted person to taste a substance associated with someone or something from the past, present or future.
Psychics with this ability experience a variety of taste sensations, without actually placing anything on their tongue or into their mouth. Clairgustance therefore enables us to receive messages from the spiritual realm by ‘tasting’ the essence of various substances in the form of ‘non-physical flavors’. The effect is ultimately very similar to our normal sense of taste, but the items we are tasting are not physically present.

What could the purpose of such an odd psychic sense possibly be? Well, believe it or not, it does come in handy! Psychics who work in law-enforcement or forensics, for example, benefit greatly from their ability to become aware of the taste of chemicals, drugs or blood. It often provides clues to how a victim died, or how they were kidnapped or murdered.

Some medical intuitives can taste certain foods a person may need for their health, such as the taste of orange juice for someone who lacks vitamin C. The taste of certain medicinal substances could also indicate a possible cause of illness, or what kind of treatment to seek.
It is also very handy in some situations if you can ‘taste’ something that is harmful or dangerous; this enables you to get the necessary information about what or where the substance was, without having to physically expose yourself to it.
Mediums rely on clairgustance most often, to identify the source or reason for a message, or to communicate with the consciousness of a loved one who has passed. In this case the various tastes are directly associated with those they are communicating with. Nothing is more validating than an accurate description of your granny’s home-baked cinnamon biscuits, made from her secret recipe, or your uncle’s favorite ketchup, with which he always smothered his food at family celebrations!

But this gift of taste is not only applicable to the deceased, or non-physical entities.  Psychics also experience tastes that are linked to the living. For example, when I am about to get a phone call from one of my closest friends, I always get a strong taste of Cabernet Sauvignon, his favorite red wine cultivar. He is an avid wine collector and connoisseur, and whenever we visit him, he always opens a bottle. Over the years I have come to associate this taste with his energy signature. Surprise visits from him are therefore impossible, try as he might!

Another odd habit I have is to get a craving for cupcakes with pink frosting – always when I am forgetting someone’s birthday (don’t ask, it is a peculiar story dating back to grade school). Needless to say, this happens a lot, because I am absolutely useless at remembering names and birthdays. At least I am good with faces and energy vibrations!

Clairgustance is seldom experienced on its own. In fact,  it is very closely associated with clairolfaction or ‘clear smelling’, also known as ‘clairalience’ or ‘clairessence’. The two typically go together and it is not unusual for a psychic to experience a certain taste along with the accompanying smell or odor.

Clairgustance often also serves to enhance at least one of the other, more prominent psychic senses, such as clairvoyance (seeing), clairsentience (feeling), clairaudience (hearing) or claircognizance (knowing).

Claircognizance (clear knowing)

Claircognizance , also referred to as Clear Recognition or Clear Knowing, is the ability to know something, no-one tells them and it is not something that they’ve read before, they just simply know it.It is an inner feeling, gut feeling, something which is just known. They have an ability to answer questions and back them up with facts; when before they did not know anything.

Claircognizance means ‘clear-knowing’. Claircognizants ‘know’ certain things without being told. For claircognizants, their higher self or spirit guides put information (in the form of thought) into their mind. This can be a whole load of information that is ‘downloaded’ into the mind. It can be smaller insights about people and situations here and there. It can be an inspired idea. All claircognizance is characterized by this strong sense of knowing that goes beyond logic and by the fact that the intuitive information comes into the mind, not into the heart or the mind’s eye.

How do you know if the information is from Spirit or your own mind?

Information from Spirit is clear. It comes through objectively, without emotion. Without “shoulds.” Sometimes the energy can urge you to do something quite strongly. But it doesn’t guilt. Sometimes it feels like you’ve downloaded a whole lot of information into your mind that you intuitively know makes sense, but you may not even be able to explain with the words and concepts your human mind understand (a bit like how dreams make sense within the context of the dream, but can be hard to explain once you’ve woken up). But, overall, it’s information that your conscious mind observes, rather than information that it creates.

Information from your own mind can sometimes be inspired by Spirit and provide solutions to your problems and situations. (And does that come from your mind or your inner self via your mind? Something to think about.) But when it’s clouded or confused with emotion, especially the kind that makes you anxious or guilty-feeling, then it’s not Spirit communication.

Signs you might be claircognizant

• You think a lot and are mentally-oriented
• You like to figure out how things work
• Your mind analyzes things and people
• You can hold abstract concepts in your mind
• You get a-ha moments – flashes of ideas like a light bulb lighting up in your mind
• You can tell if someone is lying or not
• You consider yourself a good judge of character
• You get flashes of insight about the future – about a relationship as it begins, about a job offer, about a move, etc. – with no discernible source
• Getting a sudden thought if someone ask you a question, and you just know the answer, like the answer has just been shot into your head by an unknown source.
• You have an easy time questing, such as the number, object or word someone is thinking about.
• You sometimes know things you aren't supposed to, as no one has every told you the answer.

How to develop your Claircognizance

Automatic writing is suitable for receiving claircognizant information, as it often comes through in big chunks. Open a word document or get a piece of paper and a pen and ask your Higher Self a question. Write down whatever comes into your mind in response – it doesn’t matter if it sounds like a load of nonsense at first, no-one will read it but you. Make sure the conscious mind is only a spectator in this exercise - don’t allow your mind to think about the information you’re getting. The first time I did this, I got three pages of nonsense from my subconscious mind. When I persisted with it, I began to channel some insights which surprised me in their clarity and wisdom. Now whenever I want to tune in to my guides or Higher Self, I open a word document and start typing and my claircognizance begins to take over. 

Just setting the intention for your claircognizance to develop will start the process! Write your intention down as this will make it more powerful. 

Make time for intuitive guidance. If you don’t already meditate, start a meditation practice, as just five minutes a day will help you to tune in more to your intuition. Meditation helps to quiet your mind and Divine guidance can come through a quiet mind more easily than a distracted one. Claircognizant information often comes through to me when I’m meditating. When I’m meditating, I imagine my crown chakra (the chakra on the top of my head) opening up and I often receive spontaneous intuitive insights upon doing that. Some people like to visualize a funnel being placed upon the crown chakra, to funnel the intuitive guidance from the Divine Intelligence. When you’re in a relaxed state and ready to receive intuitive guidance, if none is forthcoming, start the process by asking a question of your Higher Self and see what comes into your mind. 

Often your claircognizance is already operating and waiting to be recognized as guidance. Become more aware of your thoughts. In particular be very aware of what thoughts you are having when you meet someone new or when you’re being told about a situation that you know little about. See what you glean about that person/situation between the lines and if you can, get it validated.

Clairsentience (clear-feeling)

Clairsentience/Empath

Clairsentience, is what is more commonly referred to, as an empath. It refers to form of extra sensory perception where a person acquires psychic knowledge primarily by means of emphatic feelings and emotions. In other words you can “feel” what is going on with another person emotionally.

This can absolutely be one of the most confusing of the psychic senses. 

You are experiencing physical symptoms of an empath. Empaths absorb energy and emotions from the people, places and things around them. Some empaths also pick up energies from the Earth itself, and earthquake headaches and illness is not uncommon. I would call this "geosentience", which is clairsentience for earth energies.

Essentially, people with empathic ability are often healers, and experiencing pain and discomfort around certain people or places can be signs of an empath. Empaths tend to absorb negative energy, which makes them feel bad or unwell, but there are other ways to work with this energy.

Clairsentience or empathic ability really is a psychic gift, and there is a good purpose for it. The reason that people with empathic ability feel other people's pain is so they can help them to heal it. Many people are not aware that they have buried emotions, and that this can be the underlying cause for many painful experiences in their life. Empaths can feel the root cause of an issue, and can thereby help a person to heal at the core.

It is normal and natural for people with empathic ability to absorb other people's emotions and energies, but this is not the best way to work with this gift - instead of taking energy in, you can redirect it. Empaths have the ability to channel divine healing energy, and you can direct this energy toward people, places and things that are in pain. You can imagine light from above going directly into those people or places that need it. You could also visualize the divine light coming into you from above you, coming into your heart to be guided by your intention, then visualize the light going into your hands as healing light, and direct it toward those people or places that need it. Even if you do not know who needs healing, you can still send out balls of light to discharge built-up energy, and call upon the Universe to direct it to whoever or wherever it is most needed. This will help others feel better, and will also help you feel better.

As a "geosentient" empath, you are picking up the pain of the Earth. Rather than taking on that pain, you can shift the polarity of energy so that you are not like a vacuum cleaner, but more like an acupuncture needle for the Earth itself. Whenever you feel the pain or pressure building up inside you, realize that the Earth needs to release energy, and that you are acting as a release valve for the buildup of pressure. In these times, imagine that divine light is pouring into you from your Source above you, and that you are a pillar of light, sending light directly into the Earth. You can imagine many "acupuncture needles" of light (perhaps even crystals) going into the Earth to relieve her pain and pressure. You can also direct the light with your intention to dissipate storms and release some of the buildup of atmospheric and barometric pressure. Try to have fun with this instead of being afraid of it or burdened by it - try to lighten up for your sake and the Earth's.

The Earth does indeed have a lot going on right now, and this is becoming more intense in the times to come. There is also a great deal of emotional turmoil going on with humanity as a whole, and these intense emotions also affect the Earth and weather patterns. What makes this even worse is that many people tend to deny, ignore, or reject their emotions, particularly negative emotions, and these denied emotions build up in the collective unconscious, influencing wars, politics, and Earth changes, among other things.  Some people with empathic ability can feel the energies and emotions in the collective consciousness, and this can be extremely overwhelming and debilitating. This is why you experience an onslaught of anger and depression that are not your own. In these times, try to hold love and peace in your heart, and send that love and peace out to humanity as a whole.

Relaxation Increases Your Clairsentience

To receive clairsentient Divine guidance, begin by relaxing. Studies find that a person's physical comfort level affects their psychic abilities. Comfortable room temperatures, seating conditions, and clothing all increase the number of verifiable psychic experiences. Since clairsentients are especially tuned in to sensory information, a comfortable setting increases your awareness and understanding of your true Divine guidance. I have found that having fragrant flowers, such as stargazers and tuberoses, in the room also enhances my clairsentience.

1.Find a comfortable and quiet place to sir during the exercise.

2. Take a few deep breaths and move your shoulders and neck around a bit to loosen any tight muscles. Adjust your seating position so you are completely at ease. The goal is for you to be so comfortable that your mind is not aware of your body, as any discomfort would distract your attention from Divine guidance.

3. Mentally call on the angels to surround you. Think,   "Angels, please surround me now." You might visualize the angels circling you and the room.

4. Notice any feelings that follow: skin tingles, air pressure or temperature changes, warmth in your chest.

5. Think the words   "Love, love, love," and sink into the feeling of being hugged by a giant cloud of unconditional love. Allow yourself to feel safe, protected, and loved.

6. In this state of sure protection and love, ask God and the angels a question. The topic of your question doesn't matter; they answer every question. The only criterion is that your question must be something about which you honestly desire Divine guidance. Go to the heart of your question, and mentally ask for answers and direction.

7. Be certain to keep breathing. To breathe or inspire means taking in spirit, or inspiration. If you hold your breath or have shallow breaths, you block Divine communication.

8. As you breathe deeply, notice any feelings in your body. Did you feel a tightening anywhere? If so, put your focus on that area, and mentally ask it, "What are you trying to tell me?" Be open to receiving an honest answer, because it will reply. You will only understand the answer, though, if your mind is open to receiving the truth. Then, have a mental conversation with that part of your body that tightened or tingled after you requested Divine guidance.

9. Also notice the emotions that fluttered in answer to your question. Did you receive joy? Feel its intended meaning, which is God's go-ahead to improve your life. Did you feel a heaviness, a coldness, or dread? These are warnings that you are headed off your path.

Heightening Your Awareness of Physical Feelings

Even when we're consciously unaware of receiving Divine guidance, our bodies often acknowledge it with subtle muscular changes, such as tightening in the stomach, fluttering heart, or perspiring palms. After becoming sensitized to physical feelings, you are more apt to notice clairsentient guidance.

Your awareness of clairsentient guidance will also increase if you practice increasing your sensitivity to physical feelings. You can try this right now:

1. Become aware of your feet. Focus on how they feel. Are your feet comfortable? What is immediately next to the skin on your feet? Socks, shoes, the floor? How does that feel against your feet?

2. Concentrate on your jaw, tongue, and mouth. Notice whether your mouth is open or shut. Are any muscles in your jaw tense? How about the other facial muscles?

3. Notice any tension around your head, shoulders, arms, hands, back, buttocks, legs, arms, and feet. Think about tense rods of steel turning into limp pieces of rope. Did you feel your muscles relax with this thought?

4. Notice how your clothing feels against your skin. What is comfortable and what feels uncomfortable about your attire?

5. How comfortable is the surface on which you are sitting, standing, or reclining?

6. Pick up any soft-edged object near you, such as a cup, napkin, pillow; or piece of clothing. Close your eyes and slowly run the object across the skin of your hands, your arms, and the inside of your wrist. Focus your attention on the sensations. Try rubbing the object on one area of your arm, and compare the sensation to the feeling when you tap the object on your arm. 

7. Experiment with different objects and different pressures and motions. The objective of this exercise is to increase your awareness of bodily feelings. The more you practice increasing your sensitivity and awareness, the easier you'll find it is to follow your clairsentient Divine guidance.
