Valentine’s Day

February 9th, 2010

Cupid

Ah, the time of year when thoughts turn to romantic love with chocolates, flowers and gifts. This is all in celebration of romantic love. Will you be my Valentine? This can be heard as Cupid shoots his arrow of love. Click on the following link for the origins and practices of Valentine’s Day

This holiday makes me reflect on romantic relationships as they relate to soul mates and twin flames. I have a Soul Mates seminar that I do that explores and gives insights into our soul mates and twin flames. The seminar is valid all year ‘round. It’s just that this happens to be Valentine’s Day so I’ve been thinking about it. Some of the information from the seminar is discussed in this article. Also, one of the most asked questions during readings all year is about romantic relationships.

Often we are looking for love in all the wrong places for all the wrong reasons, with all the wrong people. For the women reading this, our knights in shining armor are really knights in rusting and disintegrating armor.

In my opinion men and women have an unrealistic idea of what relationships are. Once again, I have to point a finger at the media for instilling unrealistic expectations into people. The unrealistic expectations run the gamut from body types, behaviors, promiscuity, unfaithfulness….. Just tune into one of the so-called reality shows. Those shows are the furthest thing from reality there is.

True and lasting relationships are based on love, compatibility, having similar interests, being true friends, enjoying one another’s company. People who are together for a long time are there through thick and thin, and don’t abandon their partners/spouses when life’s challenges come along. And, they always do. People who really love each other find beauty in their spouse’s/partner’s appearance as they are and don’t try to change it. Not changing holds true for other things as well. No one can make another person over to suit them. We are who we are.

Passion is not love. So, if passion dies or changes and the relationship dies with it, then there was no real love there. Passion is a part of a relationship, not the whole.

Remember each of us deserves a quality relationship. Don’t settle for second best. I’ve had my share of clients who just want to be in a relationship at all costs. And, it has cost them quite a lot. They paid much too high a price to be in just any relationship. Some of the things that some of my clients have experienced are cheating partners, abandonment with small children, verbal and physical abuse. Try to keep in mind if you’re single and unhappy about it, there are worse things than being single! Think about a divorce rate of 50% give or take. And, that’s only counting marriages.

So Happy Valentine’s Day to absolutely everyone. Remember, you’re always someone’s Valentine!

St. Nicholas To Santa Claus

December 17th, 2009

Modern Santa

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go. People are rushing around anguishing over what Christmas gifts to buy. The mall parking lots are jammed with short-tempered people. There’s a buying frenzy albeit subdued this year due to the economy. There are office parties to go to if you happen to work in an office.

Santa Claus

Wikipedia has quite a lengthy Article on the origins of Santa Clause . It’s been quite a long historical journey from historical figure combined with ancient and modern myth or folklore.

St. Nicholas of Myra

St. Nicholas, a Byzantine Orthodox Bishop who lived in the ancient world in what is now Turkey which was part of the Byzantine Empire (as is described in the Wikipedia Article) was noted for his philanthropy and charitable works. I believe him to be the original Santa. While gift giving during this season is a ritual expression of our caring for friends and family, we should keep in mind the true meaning of the Christmas Season.

It’s about cherishing your family and friends, spending time with them and celebrating them. It is also about remembering those who are less fortunate than us, a time dedicated to focusing on them hopefully carrying that goodwill toward them throughout the rest of the year. My prayer is that humanitarianism is expressed through charitable deeds during this season. I believe these are true expressions of the Christ consciousness.

Let’s also not forget when we think of those who have gone before us into the Afterlife that they will draw near to us. This does not just happen at Christmas time. They always draw near when we think of them. Some cultures set a plate out at the dinner table on Christmas Eve symbolizing an invitation for those family in the Hereafter to join in. I certainly am very aware of those who have gone before at Christmas and New Year’s Eve. The more the merrier I always say.

This time of year makes me think on these things. Happy Holidays whatever you celebrate this time of year.

Oprah’s Future?

November 20th, 2009

Crystal Ball

Oprah Winfrey’s announcement of her departure from network television marks the end of an era. It has made front-page news. She has truly been a woman of influence, a pioneer and a trailblazer. She is to be admired for her accomplishments.

Spiritually speaking, many of our decisions today create tomorrow’s outcomes. Different choices create different outcomes. Change a decision, change the outcome. Not everything in life is inflexible. Nor are we completely bound by Fate or Destiny.

My psychic impressions on Oprah’s choice to leave network television are: that she will loose the power to influence public opinion to the extent that she has with her show on the air; there will be instability and changes with her magazine O; as more time lapses from her departure from daytime television, Oprah will also have less influence in the political sphere. That’s not to say that Oprah Winfrey will not be a powerful person. She will always be powerful, but not in the same way.

The fact that Oprah was unable to positively influence the Olympic Committee demonstrates the power of constantly being on television, in the public eye . She was not on television where it would influence the Olympic Committee, so America lost it’s bid. Oprah’s television presence seems to have had no impact outside of North America. She doesn’t seem to have the same influence outside of the boundaries of where her show is televised. American President Barak Obama thought he was bringing a powerful influence with him, but that was not the case.

Rosie O’Donnell left her highly successful daytime talk show, pre the View. I had a psychic impression her influence would wane after she made that decision. And it did. She hasn’t had much public influence although still a celebrity.

Another celebrity whose popularity has almost disintegrated is controversial, shock radio personality Howard Stern. He did not have the power to take his listeners to Sirius paid radio. How many people really remember him now? I had the same psychic impression with him as with Rosie O’Donnell that his popularity would wane.

I’m only comparing the impact the widest scope of daily media exposure has for a celebrity or personality. Certainly, both Rosie O’Donnell and Oprah Winfrey are in a completely different category from Howard Stern in my opinion. I don’t see much value in what Howard Stern does from a spiritual perspective. That’s his choice and personal responsibility or Karma.

I do wish Oprah well as she continues on her life’s journey.

So You Wanna be a Medium?

September 27th, 2009

Medium So You Wanna be a Medium? Ask yourself why? Everyone has the innate ability to develop their abilities as a Medium. What is your motivation for doing so?

Each one of us through meditation and practice can develop as a Medium. This means that each of us can communicate with those on the Other Side or the Afterlife. For the right intentioned individual, this means linking with their loved ones but also with the Infinite. Read the rest of this entry »

In Loving Memory of a Wonderful Mother

August 11th, 2009

CandleHeart of RosesCandle

My dear Mother made her transition into the Afterlife on August 2, 2009 with her family being blessed to be at her side.

Our lives were intertwined and we were very close all of her life. My Mother was a loving, genuine, generous and courageous person having survived world events that most of us only see on the news.

Roses were my Mother’s favorite flowers, hence the heart shaped roses here.

I was blessed to have had her in my life for so long. One of the nicest things that anyone has ever said to me was that I was my Mother’s Guardian Angel. Now Heaven has a new Angel who visits me from there.

Michael Jackson, Life and On The Other Side

June 27th, 2009

I watched part of a CBC documentary on Michael Jackson last night called The Passionate Eye. I think it gave a truer account of the real Michael Jackson. The real Michael Jackson was a talented performer and songwriter. The real Michael Jackson was also a prescription drug addict and a pedophile (according to the Passionate Eye). All of Michael’s fame was diminished by his serious mental health/psychiatric issues, prescription drug addiction (Deepak Chopra on CNN) and pedophilia. Former employees and persons in the know gave the real picture of Michael Jackson. Wacko Jacko is the unfortunate sad truth rather than The King of Pop when it comes to Michael Jackson in my opinion.

Life Happens, “Don’t Shoot the Messenger,” Part 2

May 17th, 2009

Before I continue, you’re not one of those guys that blames the messenger for bad news, are you?

Back in September of 2006, my first Blog post was “Life Happens Don’t Shoot the Messenger”. I feel it’s time to revisit this subject. And I think that anyone who wants to know my views on appointments with me and what I can and can’t do for them should read or re-read that Article. Anyone thinking of contacting me for an appointment should also click on the About Us page on my main website. Read the rest of this entry »

Bad Guys of Our Faltering Economy

April 4th, 2009

Thieves

I thought I’d take the opportunity to list some of the businesses and governments that I believe really take advantage of the consumer and taxpayer. Some are in Canada, where I’m from. Others are from America. Of course, what happens in America has an international impact. One doesn’t have to be psychic to see what’s happening. But, my psychic faculties do tell me who’s telling the truth regarding their business practices. Those industries and governments that are being discussed in this article are not being truthful in my opinion based on my psychic impressions. Read the rest of this entry »

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Her Legacy on Grieving and the Afterlife

February 28th, 2009


Elisabeth Kubler-Ross is someone that I have respected as an authority on grieving and the afterlife who didn’t happen to identify herself as a spiritualist large “S” or small “s”. She was and still is an authority to those outside of the framework of Mediums and/or Spiritualism. This knowledge and inspiration will continue to help for many years to come.
