Tarot for the Day - Seven of Pentacles

Thinking about the day, and a message that I could pass along to you in the newsletter, I decided to pull a Tarot card for inspiration. Seven of Pentacles - Patience In the deck I typically use, The Robin Wood Tarot Deck, the Seven of Pentacles is shows a man standing in his garden, leaning on a hoe. The leaves of the plants, which look to be pumpkins, are fully grown, green, and healthy. The sun is shining and it really looks like a beautiful day on a mid-west farm in middle

Tarot Cards Have Layers of Meaning

Another question from an inquisitive student. Question: Sometimes nothing really seems to be happening outwardly (in the physical world) yet I get 10 of Swords or some other dramatic card. Do the cards represent a state of being (emotional state, mental state) in addition to representing what actually happens in the physical world? In other words, do the cards symbolize how one feels rather than what actually happens in the physical world? Answer: The Tarot cards ave layers a

Intentions in the Moment

What is your intention in this moment? Just pause for a moment and consider. What is the intention behind anything you may be doing? For instance, what is the intention that underlies reading this article? You may say that it is to gain knowledge. Good. But in truth that is a reason. So ask again, what is the intention of that? If you keep digging down through all the actions and reasons, you will find that the intention is to achieve a certain state of being. Those states ma

Past Life Regression and the Choices We Make

Recently Oprah and Dr. Oz gave past life regression the “celebrity bump”, and it has resulted in a significant increase in conversations and curiosity about past lives wherever I go. Many people are asking how we choose a particular lifetime. I address this from a couple of perspectives in my new book, Exploring Past Lives: Your Soul’s Quest for Consciousness. Chapter 5, Making Good Choices, states: One of the most powerful gifts of past life regression is that it helps

Past Life Regression and Reincarnation

There is a lot of speculation about reincarnation and past lives, and many opinions about whether it is real or even possible. Through years of experiencing past lives, as well as facilitating regressions with people from all walks of life and all perspectives on this issue, I have come to my conclusions. I would like to share them with you. Let’s begin by looking at the difference between “spirit” and “soul”. These words are used in many different ways. Here is how

Past Lives and Healing the Mother Daugher Relationship

Do you have issues that need to be resolved with your mother? Is something blocking your communication with her? In this recent case, we discovered evidence of the spiritual connection between all of us, while creating an opening to better communication and a smoother relationship between a mother and a daughter. My client, Jann, in her early 50's, stated that she was afraid to confront her mother about how the mother was treating her and her sister. She felt that if she hone

How Intuitive Are You?

Did you know that everyone has the ability to be highly intuitive? People use their intuition all the time and don’t even recognize it. It may be the way your body felt when you met your new boss, or the curiosity about a long lost friend who surprises you with a call within a few days. Intuition comes in many forms. And there are definitely ways to enhance it. Let’s first take a look at recognizing your present intuition. And then we will explore how to expand it. Physic

The Benefits of Past Life Regression

Why would we undertake this journey of discovering our past lives? What good could possibly come from digging up old memories and hashing through events of the past?

Past Life Regression and Your Purpose

Noted mythologist and author Joseph Campbell says that, at some point in his journey, the classic hero must trust his instincts and make a leap of faith into a new reality. Luke Sky walker did this in Star Wars when he closed up his radar and electronics, and trusted “The Force” to guide his release of weapons into Darth Vader’s Death Star. When the hero is willing to make this leap, he wins the prize, discovers fire, slays the dragon, saves the maiden, or gains whateve

Suppression and Expression

In Awareness Engineering™ we have a saying that there is more energy held in suppression than in expression. By this it is meant that when we hold back from living life fully, from fulfilling our dreams, and being true to ourselves, we expend much more energy than when we flow with our gifts and desires. We all do it in one way or another. We hold back disclosing a part of our beliefs because we expect others to criticize them. Or we resist pursuing our passion to become an

At Play in the Possibility Field

If it is true that we do in fact reincarnate, that there are such concepts as past lives, then how many times do we have bodies? How many times can we incarnate, and how many past lives might we experience? There are many suppositions and opinions. In my research, both with untold numbers of subjects, as well as my own experience, the answer appears to be “Infinite.” And within that infinity lies two subsets—all possible lifetimes, and all probable lifetimes.

Check Your Baggage

We all carry “baggage” around—the fears, insecurities, grudges, etc., that have been built up since…well, forever. While some people begrudge the heavy load, others build their identity around it, allowing the baggage to represent who they are. While it is true that who you are right now, in this moment, reflects the sum total of all the experiences and impressions you have gathered since the creation of your pure soul, that reflection, that baggage, is not you anymor

Catch Up on the ZZZs

While recovering from surgery, I spent the better part of 10 days sleeping, meditating, learning to maneuver a wheelchair, and surrendering to being in the moment. While each of these activities was rewarding, I would like to focus on the value of what can happen in your mind, body, and life once necessary sleep requirements have been met.

Does Fear Rule Your Life?

Often that which we fear never actually takes place. We spend a lifetime fearing or worrying about some eventuality that never arrives. And we frequently worry in wild disproportion to what might actually occur. The bottom line is that none of the fear—and the resulting anxiety, stress, distraction of it all—really does any good. It reduces our ability to be intuitive or even present in our lives, and it leads to serious deterioration of our health and, particularly, our

Eight Steps to Enhancing Your Spiritual Connection

Know that the connection is already there.rn• Feed it. Throughout the day, ask yourself, “How am I feeding my soul?”rn• Practice the strengthening techniques daily. We have watched our children learn to walk. Each time they took a step and fell on their little diapered rumps, we exclaimed their successes – not once considering that a failure. Likewise, as we practice communicating, every experience is a step towards our success. Understand that only you can do it. r

Discover Your Purpose—Walk Your Path

Awareness Engineering is founded on the premise that two things are required for the human experience. Consciousness is required for us to be aware of our (or any) Existence. Existence is required for Consciousness to have something to be conscious of. Both are axiomatic and foundational to life. Therefore, the highest purpose we each have is to establish experience in the subconscious and/or super-conscious mind. These experiences are the basis for personality, behavior, and

Believing in an Afterlife

You may commonly hear that the only two sure things are death and taxes. I think it is only death—as there are places on this earth where people don’t pay taxes...or is it that there are simply people who don’t pay taxes? Anyway, there are ways around just about everything...except death!

Experiencing Compassion

I came across a discussion of Compassion in the book Zen Soup by Laurence G. Boldt. I decided to share it with you so we can contemplate these concepts together. "Compassion is not sentimentality. It is not about being nice, polite, or pleasing. Indeed, compassion may often take on a wrathful form or manifest itself in a tough love. There can be no compassion without widsom and no true wisdom without compassion. Genuine compassion arises with the realization of identity. When
