1.    What's the Significance of Reincarnation and Past Lives in Your Current Life?


When I was a child, I had an invisible playmate. I thought I had imagined a leopard jogging along side of me as I ran along the canal in New Mexico where I grew up. Imagining that I was a man with this leopard, I later ran track in physical education at my junior high in Texas. I continued "seeing this leopard" in my mind. At that time, I wasn’t sure why even thought I was a young female, while I ran or jogged, I would picture myself as a tall man.
When I turned 18 I went to see a psychic who immediately said, "You have a past life as a man in Africa with a pet leopard. In fact, the leopard is with you here in spiritual form."  I just about fell off my chair. How could this lady have known that?

"Why should a psychic look at past lives?" you might ask when thinking about getting a psychic reading. As a reader myself, I rarely look at past lives during a psychic reading unless the lives somehow pertain to what's going on for the seeker in this lifetime. Much of our current behavior can be traced back to past lives. Often, we bring the information from the past life forward to aid us in the current life. You might envision your past lives being a bunch of files in a file cabinet. When you are ready to change careers, for example, you might open up this file cabinet and pull out all of the files where you made a successful career change. I’ve even seen people pull up past lives in which they weren’t successful or they failed at a task in their past lives. Examining failure helps us to not make the same mistakes a second time.
The clairvoyant students in the six month program often read past lives at the free healing clinic. Explaining a certain behavior that an individual has can be the first step in changing that behavior. I knew a secretary who suddenly had a problem typing because her third finger on her right hand would uncontrollably start hitting the letter “k” every few strokes. It was greatly impacting her work because even the simplest memo was laced with k’s. She came into the clinic and asked the clairvoyant reader to give her a healing. The reader saw that she had severed a finger in a previous life, and that life had somehow been pulled forward and was impacting her life now. The reader helped to de-energize that life and re-filed it into her past life aura. She immediately stopped having the problem at work.

When my friend, John, first joined the clairvoyant program, he resisted the idea of reading past lives because he didn’t believe in them. He was brought up in Texas and he jovially boasted that “People from Texas don’t have past lives!“

The director of the psychic institute insisted that he learn the technique to see a past lives. He reluctantly agreed and the first person he read was a neophyte lady who came in for a reading.

John used the past life reading method that was taught to him. He immediately saw in his mind’s eye, that she had used toothpicks in her lifetime as a cave woman, and that she was in the same relationship with the man she was with now. He got the impression that they fought about the issue of toothpicks. He thought he was imagining things.

He wondered, “How could this be real?” He also thought this sounded ridiculous, but he found the courage to tell her about it anyway. To his surprise, the lady he was reading opened up her purse which was filled with toothpicks.
"Thanks," she said, "I never knew why I always carry so many toothpicks with me and you have explained it to me. Now that I have the answer, I don’t have to carry them anymore. I’ve had many fights with my husband over my strange desire to carry these toothpicks around.”
During my 22 years of spiritual training, I've learned many things about life through reading past lives. For example, we live on a planet that has had intelligent life for thousands of years earlier than scientists and archeologists maintain.
One of my students read a past life thousands of years back where a man was driving a futuristic vehicle. I believe from the past life readings that I’ve given that advanced cultures existed long before our scientists claim. Tools and artifacts exist dating back much further than current experts acknowledge. There are newspaper articles every year about how scientists have found evidence of ancient civilized societies including finding human footprints embedded in volcanic rocks dating back to 3.6 million years ago.

Imagine a planet that has been covered with lava several times over, each time destroying most of the traces of earlier civilizations.
Another startling claim by famous clairvoyants and prophets such as Edgar Cayce and by the Rosicrucian religion is that reincarnation was known and originally mentioned in the Bible, but that parts of the Bible have been left out.
There have been too many personal experiences for my students and myself for me to not believe that reincarnation is real. We often see in a clairvoyant reading, that the seeker has unfinished business from past lives with the people in this life.
To find some of your own answers, you can get a past life reading at a free reading clinic. You can "read" yourself, by quieting yourself, closing your eyes and going within. Good questions to ask yourself while meditating are: What are you working out with members of your family--your mother, father, brother, or sister? Do you owe this person? Does he or she owe you? Is there something else going on that pertains to a past life that is affecting your relationship? Listen to your inner voice for the answer. Awareness is the first step in change.

 2.   Who Controls Your Future?
Are You Destined by Fate?

Did you ever see the movie Groundhog Day? Everyday in the movie, the lead character, Phil, played by Bill Murray, would wake up and find that everything would be the same as the previous day. The people in the movie would say the same things, the weather was the same, the circumstances were the same, and even the same song would wake him up on the radio. Being trapped in the same day again and again was a nightmare for Phil in the beginning of the story, and Phil had many bad days. He became depressed because nothing would change.

Then Phil started to realize that he could change his day to be a good day or a bad day depending on what he said, thought and did. He started to alter his day and learn new things. The viewers saw a transformation in him where he starts to control his own future.

In many ways, this is a metaphor for life. When we are children, our parents, adults, and school teachers do many things for us and help us to shape our lives. We start to get the concept that other people or circumstances beyond your control are leading your life. Another place we might pick up this behavior of passiveness could be from watching hours and hours of television. We sit in the passive seat and say “okay, 'do-it-to-me',” rather than taking an active role. It sometimes takes awhile as an adult to outgrow this concept if we get there at all.

A good example of this is my friend Sarah who had grown up with parents that made her birthday special for her. When she was an adult, she expected those around her to make her birthday extraordinary for her. If they did not do what she wanted, she became upset. She was angry with her boyfriend and friends for not giving to her in the way she wanted.

Then she had a revelation that she could make her day wonderful. On her 28th birthday, she decided to host her own party, inviting 80 people to her house, ordering two birthday cakes, hiring a live band, having plenty of food and drinks. She had an incredible time. Friends were able to give to her because she was giving to herself. They joined in on her happiness. They brought her presents and the day after her party, her boyfriend insisted on paying for all the expenses of the party. She took charge, creating a special day for herself, instead of waiting for everyone else.

I’ve heard people say, “I didn’t do anything to create a new job or a relationship, because if it doesn’t just land in my lap, then it wasn’t meant to happen.” Many people today are very passive. They are waiting for things to happen to them, rather than going forth and creating it. I challenge this way of thinking.

Life doesn’t always just happen the way we want it to. We are on a freewill planet-- meaning we have a path we follow, but we have freewill to change our path and opt on or off of the direction of that path.

Sometimes I read people who ask me, when am I going to get the _____ (“relationship,“ “career,” “weight” fill in the blank), but have they done anything to create it? Have they visualized it? Have they taken a course in a school to move in that direction? Have they told someone about it? Have they gone out to meet people? I saw a bumper sticker that said, "Expect a Miracle," shouldn't it say "Create a Miracle?"

Another factor that determines our fate is our thoughts. Thoughts are real and can merge in your aura or energy field. If you are a healer, you probably unconsciously absorb the beliefs and energy from others. Most of the time, we are not aware that the thoughts we think in our minds are not always our thoughts, but could be the concepts of others. You can be controlled by someone else's thoughts once you accept them into your electromagnetic field.

Becoming a clairvoyant reader teaches you to become aware of the origin of your thoughts and concepts lodged in your aura, that are controlling your actions so you can take the necessary steps to release them. The more awareness you have, the more freewill you can create to make educated choices. For example: If you don't know that you are being controlled, then you can't change it. Awareness is the first step towards changing your life.

Your life is not random it is created by you and what you absorb into your aura. For a moment every day, pretend you are in charge of your life and that you are creating it, until it becomes real. Soon your energy will start to respond and you will be creating your life and your reality.

Taking an active role in creating your life is easier than you think. Start today; spend 5 minutes picturing the perfect day in your life when you first wake up and before you go to sleep. Your mind and energy want to create what you tell it. Having the thoughts and actions in place influence your direction in life.

Now--Go Create a Nice Day for Yourself!

3.    Can You Recover from Disappointments Without Losing Your Enthusiasm for Life?

Having a bad experience can sometimes leave a "picture" or stuck thought in your aura--the area two feet around your body. Thoughts are real and can occupy space. When you leave a negative picture in your aura, it begins to attract energy.

Often, you then create experiences to validate that negative image, for example, let's say Bill sees a competitor taking his client. He becomes upset and creates a negative image in his mind which says, “Competitors take my clients!" He does not release the energetic charge on that thought. Thoughts can collect energy. Bill agonizes over the event with the competitor who took his client and his energy starts to go into the image. Because Bill is powerful, the image starts to manifest, grows, and becomes energized. Soon, Bill has many competitors taking his clients, thus validating the stuck energy pattern in his reality.
In the Psychic Tools Class, you learn to isolate the negative experience, de-energize it and store it in the aura, so you can recall the experience without having it manifest more of the undesired outcome. You no longer are controlled by the negative experience. Since there is no longer an energetic “charge” on the thought, it does not collect energy.

Some gurus teach a mantra or an “erasure” technique. Erasing the experience serves as an immediate relief from being stuck on a thought or concept. Using a mantra or erasure will take out the memory of the bad experience. In Bill’s case, Bill will completely forget the experience of the competitor taking his client.

On the one hand, using a mantra or erasure might seem like a great solution, but if you consider that we, humans, incarnate here on planet Earth to gain life experience, erasing all memories is not a great solution. I have learned that it is not productive to erase all your pictures or thoughts because you, the spirit, learn through experience, and when you erase all your thoughts and memories, you must then recreate them all over again. There was a reason you acquired that life experience in the first place.

Another way to deal with disappointing experiences taught by some spiritual teachers is to leave the body in order to avoid negative and painful experiences. Visualizing yourself away in another world is a way of leaving the body. This is not the answer either because the negative energy and negative prints are stored in your body while you are not there. Negativity stuck in your aura and your body eventually manifests into some sort of problem, unhappiness or disease.
Learning to de-energize pictures or negative thoughts using psychic tools releases the charge of the negativity in the thought, but you still retain the memory of the experience. There are several ways to de-energize pictures taught in the clairvoyant training program, as well as tools to increase your awareness, work with energy, and start to find your own answers. De-energizing the experience allows you to remember the experiences you have been through, but it does not allow them to take away your happiness even if it was a negative experience.

Here’s another example, say you broke up with your boyfriend, and now you want him back, but he’s moved on to someone else. You keep thinking about him again and again. You can collect images of him into an energetic rose, just by imagining the rose out in front of you absorbing thoughts and colors that remind you of him. Once you get a sense that the rose is full of the pastime thoughts, you can imagine that it bursts or explodes into a billion pieces and disintegrates. Congratulations, you have just freed yourself from stuck thoughts. There might by thousands of strongly charged images of him in your aura. It might take exploding several roses full of thoughts until you completely feel like you are not controlled by the obsession of your ex-boyfriend, but know that relief will be yours soon. [Go Back]

4.    Can't You Just Learn Information by Reading a Book Alone by Yourself?

Why Join the Clairvoyant Program?
Intuitive development classes at Intuitive Insights are set up so you learn two or three spiritual or psychic tools weekly to use in your life. You practice these tools with other students in the class in a safe environment then you go out into the “unreal” world and apply them during the next few days. When you come back the following week, you learn more techniques in addition to reviewing what you learned during the previous week.
Repetition of psychic tools is important because you are retraining yourself how to think and how to use your energy. You also need the classroom setting to have the opportunity to practice and work with others in a safe environment free from invalidation.

The saying, “practice makes perfect” is also true for spiritual tools.

A student, Lisa, who attended the clairvoyant class, learned the tool of grounding. The next day, she attended her brother's graduation which was held on a football field at his school. When the ceremony was over, the crowd sitting in the bleachers immediately rushed onto the football field. Lisa and her family wanted to find her brother so they could take him out to lunch. Her family said, “How are we going to find him in the midst of thousands of people in the stadium.”

Lisa thought, “I’ll ground myself to the planet, and I’ll ground my brother. This way, we’ll be the only two people who are grounded at this event.” After she grounded herself and her brother, she walked into the crowd and walked instantly to her brother.

Another student, Carol, was having severe financial problems. She took the Psychic Tools class and learned the tool of using an energetic rose. She pictured an energetic red rose in front of her. She decided to use this spiritual tool to help her in a materialistic way.” She put the rose up in front of her with the intention that it would help her find some money. Carol even whispered, “Rose, help me find some money.“ As she walked along the street, she suddenly got a feeling that the rose was veering off to the right of her a few feet off to a side street. She followed the rose and walked down the side street. She looked down at the sidewalk and found $80 folded up and lying on the street. She picked it up and went back to her original route home.

When Carol arrived home, she opened her cabinet to see what she could make for herself for dinner. She found she had two choices: macaroni and cheese or spaghetti. She again became aware of the rose guiding her to choose the tomato sauce and to have spaghetti.

She picked up the can of paste and opened it with a can opener. When she pulled back the lid, written on the bottom of the cover was, “Congratulations, you have won $5.” Carol realized practicing the psychic tools learned in class was a great way to create for herself.

Sure, you could read a book and finish with it within a few hours, but if you do not use and practice the information you have learned, it is the same as if you never attained the information in the first place.

Over 18 years of teaching clairvoyance has shown me that when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Many times, people driving through the area, who come in to get a reading at the free clinic, end up staying for eleven months to complete the beginning and advanced Clairvoyant Training Programs.

In the same way that I endorse having a spiritual teacher, I also believe that you should not have your teacher become a guru to you to the point that you cannot find your own answers.

"The answers are within," says the Bible. Jesus appeared as a spiritual teacher and enlightened millions to the presence of God, so that each of us could communicate directly with the divine. Jesus' mission was not to make people dependent on him for information. "Behold I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves," and "The works that I do and greater can you do." Okay, I think I'm getting off my soap box now!

The teachers are prepared to teach you spiritual tools at the Intuitive Insights center, and now I have a question for you, “Are you ready?”

5.    Why Did the One Thing You Really Wanted in Life Slip Through Your Fingers?

An exceptionally attractive lady who was about 34 years old came in for a clairvoyant reading from me about two months ago. She was crying and claiming that she was suicidal. The reason: The man she loved had told her he was not going to be with her anymore. Emily (not her real name) was devastated. "How can he do this? There's nothing left to live for," she cried, "Why is this happening? Why did God do this to me?"
With my eyes closed, I saw in my mind’s eye, swirls of red energy around her head, which was the energy she was releasing and the color of her anguish. When a color appears in my mind, I ask myself, or my inner voice, the meaning of each color that I see. Then I receive a silent answer within. In this case the shade of red meant distress.

“The answers lie within,” says the Bible, and that’s exactly how to be a good reader. When you read clairvoyantly, you can sit across from someone and find answers to their questions inside of yourself. I silently and telepathically asked Emily’s higher-self, the same questions she had asked me.  I heard a clear answer inside my head.
I opened my eyes and gave Emily my answer, "Your higher-self is showing me that you have spent a lifetime of putting people, objects, and money before your soul, and now you are being asked to find and rediscover yourself again as an individual. You are looking outside yourself rather than listening to your voice within. This event happened to you as a wake up call, to act as a catalyst to get you to realize that you are not your thoughts, your pictures, ideas, or relationships, but instead, you are a spirit who creates experiences from which to learn and grow."
I have seen many people experience wake up calls to get them to turn inward towards their inner voice. There is a reference to this phenomenon in several famous spiritual teachings, including in the Bible, "What if a man gained the whole world and lost his own soul?" asks Jesus. If you gain the whole world and loose yourself in the process, the universe assists you in finding yourself again. Instead of thinking that this is the end, think of it as a reminder to refocus on your self and listen to yourself.

I knew a man, Robert, (not his real name) and his business partner who scraped together a down payment to purchase a million dollar commercial fishing boat for a moneymaking venture. It was going to be hard work at first, but in a few years, each planned to start living the high life. After owning the boat a few days, it was stolen, and this happened before it had been properly insured. Robert and his partner now owed the bank a million dollars--which was money they did not have. What added to the tragedy was that Robert’s business partner immediately fled the country and was never heard from again. Robert was plagued with depression, trying to make ends meet and pay back the million dollar judgment on a menial salary. Soon afterwards, he was diagnosed with cancer. Spiritually he had decided to die since he saw no way out of the dilemma.

Robert came in for a series of readings. The readers were able to energetically heal the destructive experiences and saw that there was hope. In his aura, one of the readers saw that there was an accountant who could help him lift his financial burden from the judgment and get a new life. Robert sought out and found the accountant. Together they negotiated a small settlement with the bank. Robert started to feel better and hence his cancer instantaneously stopped progressing and began to regress, then disappeared.
When Robert received a healing, it changed his spiritual path so he could learn the lesson he chose to learn and then he could move on to the next lesson in life. When you receive your wake up call, be positive, and go within. Ask yourself, "What do I need to change in my life?" and imagine the best things will happen for you.
This is not the end, but the beginning of you knowing yourself. - By Vessa Rinehart [Go Back]

6.    Are You Really Doomed to Die Because of "Bad" Genes?
Is Energy Also Hereditary?


So your relative has heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc. And now your doctor is putting the 'fear of God' into you to get checked and checked - annually, semi-annually, and quarterly for this hereditary disease. Are you really doomed because someone in your family contracted a disease?
The latest headlines speak of people having genetic predispositions for disease. The new media information has caused great fear amongst the masses. Even some doctors who haven’t completely studied the genetic research are provoking paranoia in our society. This fear creates a victim cycle in which people feel that they have no power over disease. We are now a society that lives in fear over sickness. Everyone seems to be affected, because inevitably, there is someone, perhaps a distant relative in your family that is struggling with a horrific ailment.

Let's examine the above concepts: It is true, research has found genes that generally make someone more susceptible to diseases, but are we looking at this from a spiritual perspective or from a atheist (non-spiritual) point of view?
The atheist point of view says, "You can't change. You're doomed to bad genes. If you have the fatal disease gene, then there is a 100% chance of your early death." When a society, your friends, co-workers and even yourself perpetuate this energy, then you are stuck in the energy and thoughts of fear, which, I believe can contribute to disease.

This leads to people having radical medical procedures or taking medications to prevent this so-called destiny from happening. In the case of breast cancer, some women in the United States have even removed their breasts because someone in the family had breast cancer. In my opinion, this is ridiculous, and a result of the power of hysteria over a society.

I recently asked a middle-aged man, "What do you plan to do when you retire?"
He answered, "Well, my wife will probably die soon, so I think I might move to a foreign country and become a missionary."
I said, "Is your wife sick?"
"Oh, no. She's healthy." he answered, "it's just that she has two relatives who died of cancer, so she'll probably get it and die too." And I thought, it's a sad time we live in that instead of using the new medical research to help us with our lives, we instead, doom our loved ones, and live in fear ourselves of dying from 'genetic' diseases.

Let’s take a look at the genetic predisposition of acquiring breast cancer. Hereditary breast cancers account for only 10% of the annual incidence of breast cancer in the United States; two main genes that are responsible for this susceptibility are BRCA1 and BRCA2. That means that 90% of breast cancer is NOT genetic, but instead are lifestyle related. It also turns out that researchers have found that even if you fall in the 10% category that has the cancer genes, that the chance that you will get breast cancer in your lifetime is below 60% depending on your habits in life, so there’s no reason to do radical medical procedures, but instead to change your lifestyle.

Similar findings are being reported about prostate cancer in men. In an article about prostate cancer from the Prostate Cancer Helpline, it states “when people have migrated from Japan to the USA in the past, the rate of prostate cancer in their descendants has risen greatly. Since their genetic make-up is largely similar, as they have married within their own ethnic communities, the new risk of prostate cancer is likely to be related to environmental factors. Diet is an important one of these. Another pointer to reinforce this conclusion is that the levels of cancer in the East are rising. This coincides with changes in lifestyle - more people are living Western lifestyles and eating Western style foods.”

In the advanced psychic training classes, clairvoyant students work on healing their genetic make up - keeping the best, and removing the worst. They reprogram the energy of the cells and body disposition to affect their so-called 'destiny'. Thoughts are real and energy is real. If you think a thought, your energy goes through the idea and then starts to create it. It doesn’t matter if the thought is positive of negative. And if you think a negative thought about your body falling victim to a terminal illness, that vibration permeates your cells. And the cells, just like your energy, want to respond. One way to combat that is when you have a negative thought about your body, immediately imagine that thought as a color and imagine that color being pulled out of you by gravity. Then replace that image with an extremely positive image of you jogging on the beach in great health.

Thoughts can be hereditary too. If you are around a negative thinker as a child, often you pick up that pattern of thinking. You might have learned to think and act get just like your mother or father. It takes much effort as an adult to change patterns of thinking. The first step is to recognize that you do think in this way, just like your mother or grandmother or father. Next, imagine breaking up the pattern by releasing the colors out of your aura, just as you would release a depressing thought. You can change the way you think and act to bring forth a different
outcome to your life.
Energy is not finite, nor is spirit unchangeable. The body too can radically change just from you changing your thoughts, your eating and your exercise habits, as well as your routine, so you can become healthy and vibrant. I have even seen people overcome terminal illness by receiving a spiritual healing. In most cases, I believe that there is a spiritual cause that contributes to the illness. If you remove the spiritual cause, then the spirit begins to heal the body.

Another way I have also seen people radically reverse any disease is by changing their diet. We, people living in the United States, don’t eat well or know how to eat. We have high-fat, low fiber diets that are enzyme deficient. It’s time we learned how to eat to contribute to superior health.

You are not doomed. Don't give in to the fear and hype of the media saying that you cannot alter your physical fate. Start by changing your thoughts and your energy by using psychic tools. Release the fear and the genetic energies out of your electromagnetic field--your aura and body and heal yourself. Then radically change your diet, your daily routine, and your exercise schedule. Make the necessary changes today and live a lengthy, positive productive existence. Now, go live a long life! [Go Back]

7.    Does Being a Good Person Pay Off?
Experiencing Instant Karma

According to the dictionary, “karma” is defined as "The total effect of a person's actions and conduct during the successive phases of the person's existence, which, in turn determines the person's destiny or outcome. Fate." Putting this more simply, you might say that what you exude into the world will come back to you next lifetime.
Over the past few years, we have been in the Age of Truth - meaning-- everything that was hidden got uncovered and discovered. Sex, financial, and religious scandals recently headlined our newspapers.
Now another interesting shift in the world's vibration has given yield to the Age of Instant Karma. Suddenly the energy you are putting out into the world is coming back to you sooner. No longer are we in an age that karma is coming back next lifetime or sometime after you die. Karma is coming back to you now, this lifetime, and sometimes as quickly as a few weeks or months, or in the same day.

Mary (not her real name) stole small items in stores. She had more than enough money to pay for items since she and her husband owned a successful business. One day, Mary’s house got robbed and many valuable items were stolen from her. Some of her employees also stole from her. Here was an example of instant karma. Working out your issues while you are in the body is more important than ever. People on their deathbeds are trying to rectify the former negative communications with loved ones. The reason is that it is much easier to work
out issues WHILE you have the body, not after the body has died.

Students practice communicating with the other side of the veil in clairvoyant class. The spirits have shown us that it is much easier to work through stuck issues, thoughts, and communications while in the body, rather than wait until afterwards.
Practicing forgiveness for yourself and others is imperative. This does not mean that you have to allow someone to take advantage of you a second time. It merely means that you let go of the stuck energy in your aura and consciousness, so you do not take the hostility with you to the grave.
"What is bound on Earth is also bound in Heaven." says the Bible. One might rephrase that, “What you haven't gotten over while you were alive in the body will still be an issue when you pass away.“
You don’t have to re-live and re-confront every episode. Perhaps you will never get another chance of changing the relationship with a person you transgressed against previously because you will never see him or her again. You can show kindness to the world by helping another individual or living being. I have watched people turn around their karmic fate by sending out the energy, vibrations of compassion, joy, love, and peace, even if it is not to the same person that they have trespassed against.

I know a man who killed many animals as a pre-teen and teenager. Later as an adult, he had the opportunity to change his karma by caring for a dog. He deeply regretted what he had done as a youth, but he remedied some of what he had done by expressing love when he was older.

You can release your karma by working with three-dimensional energy learned in the clairvoyant training program, or you can start immediately by saying, " I forgive myself for my wrong doings and I forgive those around me for their wrong doings against me." With this intention, you start to let go of the karma.

Start today, change your actions and alter your destiny by becoming karma free. [Go Back]

8.    How to Live in a Fear-Based Society


Recently a guest teacher, Shelley Hodgen taught a class called "Everything You Wanted to Know about Fear." In the workshop, Shelley asked students write down all of their worst fears. The listed fears ranged from fear of losing everything, fear of bugs, fear of failure, fear of financial ruin, fear of death, and more.
I saw in my mind’s eye, a white energy filling the room. I silently asked my inner voice, what this white energy was and I received the answer silently that it was the students’ resistance to their fears. As people listed their most awful worries on a piece of paper, the energy of powerlessness began to get released. When people admitted and acknowledge their fears, it helped to stop the cycle of resistance from growing. As a clairvoyant, I could see that some of these fears were based on past life experiences and some were fears from childhood. The general theme of the fears was that you, the spirit occupying the body, would not be in control and someone or something outside your control would take over, rendering you powerless.

Resistance to these fears could cause some of them to be manifested. The way the resistance works is, if you resist something enough, you lock the energy into that thought. The non-movement of energy in your aura aids in creating the situation you are avoiding.
The first step to changing an energy pattern is to become aware of it. If you are not conscious of your fears, then how can you know what to work on in liberating yourself from them?

Once you acknowledge your fears, then imagine releasing that fear with a grounding cord. A grounding cord is a three-dimensional visualization in which you access the gravitational pull of the planet to assist you in letting go of unwanted thoughts into the earth. Thoughts can stick in your consciousness and the energy field around your body. Imagine the thoughts of fear draining out of your body and subconscious mind, as if the thoughts are specks of dirt falling out of you to the center of the world. At the center of the gravitational field, energy gets neutralized.

Releasing these images of fear also de-energizes the negative event for your mind, thus preventing these pictures from controlling you. Replace the negative thoughts with a positive scene of the best possible scenario, for example, if you are afraid of failing, see yourself succeeding If you are afraid of drowning, see yourself able to swim safely to the shore. See the thought in your mind's eye. Change the path of your energy into a positive one. If you work with energy and remove negative thoughts in your consciousness there is really nothing to be afraid of!

9.    The Energy of Completing Relationships
What to Do When It Is Over...

Recently a guest teacher David Pearce spoke about "The Energy of Completing Relationships." He led students through a step by step process on how to let go of a relationship, release the past, and embrace the future.
Sometime in your lifetime, you will probably end an important personal relationship, or perhaps you already left a job that you had for years, and after you left, you realized that you had all of your energy tied up in that one activity or person. Energy is not good or bad, but rather, it is either yours or someone else's. We, as spirits, start to put our energy into a job or to another person, and when the relationship or job is over, we experience a loss, not only of the day-to-day communication, but a loss of our energy in our auras--the space around us.
I recently gave a clairvoyant reading to a woman who left her job after sixteen years. Even though she knew it was the healthiest thing for her and that she would eventually find another job, she went back in her mind to the relationship with the company every day to the point that she could hardly function in her daily life. She even dreamed she was back at the old job for many months. She had put so much energy into making the company work, that it became her identity. She received a healing, then purchased a tape on completing relationships and began to reclaim her energy back from the previous career. She then created a fabulous new profession with more money, space, and validation. She became happier.
In a personal relationship, we create pictures, which are thoughts, of the other person. These thoughts stick in our bodies, and in the layers of the aura. The deposited thoughts and pictures of who the other person is collect on the edge of the aura. "You're the best person in the world,” or “you‘re generous.” These thoughts enter into you subconscious, and you start to believe these pictures and ideas until they become part of us.

Collecting positive thoughts on the edge of your aura is wonderful while everything is going well in the relationship, but what if the relationship has ended and the thoughts from the other person are negative, for example, "you're the worst person in the world,“ or “you’re stingy.” We then start to allow some of the negative thoughts to enter our consciousness and lower our self-esteem and it slows us down from creating our lives as fast as we were creating it before.

In a long-term relationship, we also start to adjust ourselves, and our thought patterns, to match those around us. We become programmed or conditioned to act in a specific manner. With negative images in your aura, you might start to act negatively. With positive images in the aura, you might start to act positively.

With psychic tools you can begin to undo this type of conditioning after you end a relationship. It is important to release the negative images, so you can create your future. Also, it is important to release any energy--whether positive or negative that you absorbed from the other person, because holding that energy in your body and aura act as a doorway for that person's energy to come back into your space.

Another important step in making energetic separations from a partner is to free your energy that is stuck in goals you made for each other and plans you made together. This helps you create new opportunities for yourself. Perhaps you or your partner thought, “Let’s get rich together!” Now that the relationship is over, you can call back your mock up or goal so you can manifest that aspiration with someone else.

Many times during the break up one partner was in a vengeful mood and said, “I hope you never meet anyone else as nice as me,” and in wishing that, you left your energy inside of your previous partner and now you have karma with him or her. It’s time to gather your energy--whether it is in the form of negative or positive thoughts so you can use that energy for something else in life. Your energy cannot work for you if it is not in your possession.
Collecting these thoughts and pictures, and then releasing them, will aid in expediting the completion of the relationship and help you move on to something better.

10.  Why Do I Have This Problem?
The Purpose of Problems...

We grow and learn spiritually by creating and solving our problems. Some of the problems mirror what happened to us in our childhood. I knew a man who had been beat up by his siblings as a child. As an adult, he was now being beat up by the housing association where he lived.

I also believe that we will recreate the same problem in order to learn a lesson. People do not always learn the lesson from the problems they are experiencing. So then they unconsciously recreate the same problem again and again. I knew a woman who was a good driver, but she got rear-ended in her car three times in one month. She sometimes felt ignored by her husband, who was an attorney. As a child, she got attention from her father whenever she created a problem that he had to help her solve. She wanted attention from her husband. She came to the healing clinic and received a reading. She then realized why she had been hit three times. She was then able to release the past and move forward. She has not had a car accident since the visit to the clinic.

The magic of using psychic tools and getting a reading is that you can start to see how your current situation matches your childhood or previous circumstances. Once you identify the similarity, you can then end the cycle of this problem and move on in your growth. Sometimes you do not even have to know how the situation matches a previous one, you can just release it.

One time, a lady in the clairvoyant training program decided to consciously create a problem, rather than having problems come to her. She grew up in an environment of lack, where she could have only half of anything given to her since she had to share it with others. She decided to create and envision the problem of having two of everything. So within a week, she had two relationships, two places to live, two phone bills and more. She quickly decided to go back to having one of everything. She felt that she had recovered from the events of her childhood. She demonstrated to herself that she could create and then solve problems of her choosing.

Take a moment and examine the problems you are solving in your life. Explore how the feelings of these current problems match previous feelings you had in the past. If you sense that you have learned this lesson, perhaps its time for a healing and a reading so you can end the cycle of this problem and move on.

11.  Relationships: Can't We Just Get Along?
The Most Difficult Test

We are in the age of relationships. We are learning to get along with our lover, our parents, children, friends, co-workers, God, the IRS, and even our pets. Much of one's spiritual growth comes from relating to others.

True, you cannot force someone to love you or even to be reasonable, but you can connect to your higher self and do the best you can to relate to the world with the highest integrity and your greatest truth.
If you are unkind, creating destruction towards another, or lashing out at someone, you are not acting out of the higher part of your soul, and you are creating karma, rather than releasing it. One can say, that by creating ill will in the world, you create karma and postpone your growth until another time. If I may quote a universal truth in the Bible, "What is bound on Earth is also bound in Heaven," meaning that if you have not worked it out through your physical actions, then you have not worked it out spiritually either. You will have to work it out after you have died. You can just as easily move spiritually backwards on your path, as well as move forward.

I knew a man who created much sadness in people's lives while he was alive. After he died, he visited me as a spirit and expressed how difficult it was initially when he passed over because he experienced the pain he caused in other's lives. He eventually forgave himself and healed himself and moved towards his own divinity. He showed me that if you work on your end of the relationship with someone, then you are free from going through the pain after you leave.

Relationships can be painful. Rejection, invalidation and fear can result from being in a relationship. This is why many people want to avoid them and would rather live their life alone on a mountaintop away from society. On the other hand, relationships with others can bring euphoria and incredible joy. Having relationships with people also is a way to accelerate your spiritual growth and awareness, because you are constantly processing what others bring to the world. You speed up the thoughts you are dealing with by more than just dealing with yourself.

Having a sense of yourself, your space, or your own essence, while being with others is important. If you lose yourself in others, then you are not operating out of the highest part of yourself. Having a balance of your inner soul while relating to others is one of the ultimate purposes of human existence.

One way to develop your sense of yourself is by learning spiritual or psychic tools to de-energize current thoughts that cause you to act out of character of your own essence. By learning to clairvoyantly read people, students find out what their own blocks are, and get to know themselves better thus discovering their true essence.

They begin to have a better relationship with themselves. Having a good relationship and being comfortable with yourself allows you to have better relationships with others.

12.  How Do You Handle Pain?
"I Can't Deal With That!"


Most everyone knows what it is like to touch a stove, burn yourself, and feel physical pain, and but do you know how to handle spiritual and emotional pain. Some specific examples of spiritual and emotion pain are; someone rejects you, doesn't like you, doesn't approve of you, doesn't like what you create, or the people you admired as a child didn't have time for you and didn't want you around.

Sometimes spiritual and emotional pains are often far worse types of pain. For one, spiritual and emotional pain lasts much longer than physical pain. You might have the pain from these experiences with you for years, whereas the physical pain eventually subsides.

People use many different ways to escape from spiritual and emotional pain, since you can’t just take an aspirin. I’ve seen instances where people will turn to other ways of numbing themselves in order not to have to see the pain. Watching hours and hours of television is an escape. Doing drugs, alcohol, being on the computer for excessive amounts of time, distractions of any sort --all take you out of the present situation. If the stored up pain is great, it causes you, the spirit, to leave the body. This is what's referred to as an out-of-body experience.

There are many types of out-of-body experiences. One out-of-body experience is that you have your attention on an event in the future or the past. You actually send a part of yourself there. You are divided as a spirit. We think of an out-of-body experience as a strange psychic phenomenon, but in actuality, we have out-of-body experiences daily. We drive down the freeway focusing on our destination and only part of ourselves is driving the car. We sometimes operate our bodies on automatic when we are preoccupied and split, as a spirit. Have you ever driven to a destination, and once you arrive, you realized that you didn’t remember driving there?
People ask me, "How can I have an out-of-body experience?" I am amused by this question, because I am attempting to have an "IN-Body" experience -- meaning, I want to stay present and clear to enjoy life, and process pain as it comes up using spiritual techniques.

When I give a clairvoyant reading, I see these stored-up pockets of pain having a great effect on the seeker. When you have a painful experience that you don't want to face, you store it in the body and the aura, then you, the spirit, take off. You lose some of your clarity and awareness. Sometimes emotional and spiritual pain can affect the memory banks.

In the aura, these painful experiences are reflected as dull or dark colors. Enthusiasm or joy is reflected as bright or pastel colors. I see stored-up pain as pockets of red and black scattered through the energy field. These colors are often a reflection of the pain a person has deposited in his or her conscious or subconscious mind.
Rather than storing pain, you can process it out of your aura or your body. Exercise, meditation, and using psychic tools are ways to process it out. When you learn to ground, run your energy, and release images, you start to process pain in a different way. You de-energize it and stay in the body, or in other words you stay clear, focused and in present time.

You can learn to read auras and in your spiritual development, learn to release stored pain. You can also retrain yourselves how to think and manage energy so you process out the pain instead of leaving your body. You then become more in-tune with yourself, happier, and more present.

13.  Is It Better to Be Serious or Amused?
"Where Are You on the Emotional Piano Scale?"


Creating the music of your soul begins with mastering your "emotional piano scale." You can set your energy with the intention of vibrating at a particular key. In doing so, your energy will follow your intention, elevating the rest of your consciousness. In other words, if you want to be happy, then pretend you are happy, and your psyche will follow shortly.

The complete vibrational range of the emotional piano scale progresses down from joy to enthusiasm, amusement, neutrality, anger, apathy, and boredom. The bottom end of the scale moves from grief all the way to death.
The magic of human existence is in enthusiasm--in which all obstacles can be overcome. Exercising your enthusiasm motivates man to get over whatever obstacles there are. Emotionally healthy children have a inherent exuberance and enthusiasm. In the Bible, it says, “To enter into the kingdom of Heaven, come as a little child.” So when you demonstrate enthusiasm, you are naturally becoming more spiritual and closer to Heaven on Earth.
When you are at the very top of the emotional range, you often will experience joy--the space where you see the positive in life and feel the harmony it brings. It is an overall sensation that you are just joyous and don’t necessarily have to have a reason to have joy; you just are “in joy.” Animals, too can experience joy. Last week, some birds were playing in the sprinkler out in the yard, singing and swooping in a joyous manner.

Amusement is a spiritual tool of thinking that life is funny. A sense of humor can save you from a horrendous emotional downfall. If you are able to laugh at yourself, then you are able to separate from your thoughts and creations to realize that what you think and what you create is not you, the spirit. Laughter changes the magnetic charge in the aura, so pain or punishment bounce off your energy field. For example, if an adversary is angry at you, and you are simply amused about it, then his anger cannot control you.
Neutrality is seeing both sides of a dichotomy. It is different from apathy, because with neutrality there is no judgment, and you understanding both ends. You have the power to see viewpoints but not take a side. A psychic reader trained to use neutrality in his spiritual counselings, can read without judgment why a person is creating her life in a certain way. In saying hello to the soul, a reader can suddenly understand why the seeker has chosen that path.

Anger is a higher energy vibration than boredom or grief, because anger can be a motivation. When you are angry, the anger can create movement of the stuck energy and thoughts stored in the aura. You then leave apathy, boredom and grief behind.

On this emotional scale, death is defined as no movement. The effortless growth of the aura ceases, and no new thoughts come into the mind. The colors of the energy field become dark, and the spirit leaves the body.
So, where do you want to be on the emotional piano scale? The world is waiting for your song.

14.  Spirituality Versus Materialism:

Can You Copy the Energy of the Rich and Become Wealthy?

(Taken from Vessa Rinehart’s new book “Why the Rich Are Rich”)

At one time however, I was downright poor, living on a food allowance of $8.00 per week, but now my business and professional career are thriving. I started to think about how my previously dismal situation had changed to a life of prosperity.

After receiving my certification as a clairvoyant, healer and a member of the clergy in a metaphysical non-denominational Christian church in the San Francisco Bay Area, I found that many of the hundreds of students I served and ministered to live below the poverty line. Possessions as basic as a car, a safe residence, being out of debt, were difficult for these spiritual people.

In my spiritual training, I learned some life-changing universal truths. I started to know myself more than I thought was possible, and I mastered techniques to apply psychic tools to help govern my own life. Some of the concepts I studied were methods to protect myself from picking up energy and thoughts from others and how to keep my own life force around me. I also learned how to protect myself psychically from others. I explored how to read people and know what ideas were stored in their auras--the two-foot space around them encompassing their bodies.

One day as I counseled a penniless member of the church who told me that he was about to file bankruptcy, I pondered the questions, “Why are so many of these spiritual people poor?“

I offered a clairvoyant reading to as many people as I could, viewing their ability to create what they wanted. I gave free sessions to anyone who wanted spiritual insight to his or her prosperity. The metaphysical center attracted many different types of people, and I had dozens of people come to me-- from the impoverished to the multimillionaire, and I began to see the energetic differences between the two groups of members. I narrowed down and categorized the differences between the rich and poor into seven categories. I soon found that if I, myself, copied the words, behaviors, and energy traits of the rich, good things started happening to me, including an increase in my own abundance, and in addition, money flowed toward me. When I felt that I had found the answers, I narrowed them down into seven secrets to yield what the universe had to offer.

Now I’m able to teach my clairvoyant students ways to increase their prosperity and copy the energy of the rich to become rich, as well as have prosperity for myself.

Imagine merely replicating the energy and thought patterns of an affluent person and becoming rich your self. Matching another's energy is easier than you can imagine, because life force energy is neutral and will create anything that the mind focuses on. In the Abundance and Prosperity Workshops, countless people have turned their lives around from an existence of desperation to having a plethora of good fortune. By practicing clairvoyant tools, changing the way you think, and putting the concepts into practice, your life will change too.

Now, let’s explore one of the seven main secrets then put them into effect, so you can alter your thoughts, energy, and outcome of your creations. The rest of the secrets are written in my book, “Why the Rich Are Rich.”

When I give a clairvoyant reading, the number one difference that I see between a person who has abundance, and a poor person is that an abundant person has the ability to form a picture--a detailed picture, in his mind of whatever he desires. Rich people can see an image, focus on it long enough for their energy to go through the mental photograph, and manifest it. This may sound too basic and simple, but there are millions of people who do not have the correct thought process to get rich--namely by holding a positive image in the mind long enough for energy to go through it.

The man who built the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge, Joseph Strauss, for example, pictured every part of the bridge-- the nuts and bolts, and the way it would work, long before the blueprints were drawn. Once the blueprints, mock ups, and funding were there, the construction began. Strauss had the whole picture in his head before he started the process.

Your life force energy is extremely powerful. Energy has the same characteristics as a ray of light passing through a filter that manifests the outcome, similar to an overhead projector which illuminates crisp transparency. The sharper the image that the beam passes through, the clearer the projection. The thoughts in your mind act as your filters, so if your thoughts are distinct, then the end product is also specific.

Energy >>> Thought >>> Outcome

Society has taught us that thoughts happen, and then disappear, but in truth, thoughts are real things occupying space. Thoughts can live in a site, stay in a room, in one’s aura, or on a street corner. Have you ever known of a restaurant that failed, and then any new companies in the same location also went out of business even though the eatery across the street succeeded? This phenomenon occurs because the spiritual vibration and mental picture of previous occupants still inhabit that locale.

Many times during my career as a clairvoyant, I provided a service called a business healing--in which I went to the enterprise to change the energy from failure to success. One of these appointments involved visiting a Guatemalan clothing and jewelry store. The prior tenants at this site owned a greeting card shop, which had gone out of business. When I closed my eyes while visiting the new store, in my mind’s eye, I could see the former owner holding his head in his hands in despair as he contemplated closing the doors forever. His grief permeated the walls, ceiling and floor of the location. I grounded* and released the stuck emotions from the edges of the building. I also noticed that the current owners set the intention in the store as if it was their home--thinking that it was a comfortable place to be.

This belief was somewhat limiting, and did not allow for other people to come into the entrance being that the shopkeeper, as well as most people, would not invite everyone from the public or anyone who was unfamiliar - into their home, hence the doorway was closed from the customers. My students and I communicated this to the owner. We also created a bright yellow energy, which symbolized the goal of abundance into the location, to the proprietor and the employees. The next day after the healing, we received a phone call reporting that the company incurred record sales.

Once, during a healing on a flower shop, I intuitively read the feeling of dread from the previous florist, who wanted desperately to leave the floral market. He sold the shop to my client, Terry, who in all her enthusiasm, hard work, and long hours could not understand why this new venture was not profitable. After clearing the negative pictures, she was quickly able to turn the business around to a lucrative endeavor

How the Poor Think

We have already learned that the rich hold a picture in their mind’s eye long enough for their energy to create it. The poor on the other hand, send so many conflicting signals to the brain, that it is impossible for the psyche to distinguish which image to manifest. Usually the idea starts out as a positive concept for a split second followed by a string of negative thoughts.

Also, the impoverished intellect often dispatches distorted and fragmented thoughts. These indistinguishable concepts confuse the spiritual part of the person making it difficult to generate exactly what the creator desires, therefore, the originator ends up with an undesired outcome.

Stan, (not his real name), who was essentially homeless and ended up sleeping on various friends’ couches for several years came to the abundance workshop and received a clairvoyant reading from me. During the session, I asked Stan to envision a car. As he attempted to form an image of a car in his mind, I psychically did not see any definite impression, strong picture, or a specific depiction of a car. In fact, there was nothing there, just contradictory thoughts and colors.

He said, “I kind of want a car, I think. Maybe I want a car, I don’t know, maybe a blue one. Maybe someone could give it to me, maybe not. I don‘t know if that will happen. I keep having to walk. I wish I didn‘t have to walk. I have to walk everywhere or borrow a bicycle. The other day, I had to ride 17 miles to get to where I wanted to go.”

Stan’s representation of the car was not focused enough. He immediately followed his creation by creating too many conflicting negative images of what could happen for his energy and mind to generate the positive photographic representation. The image of the car was neither distinct, nor did Stan stay focused on the positive image long enough before he started to fill his mind with the negativity of how he did not wish to walk.

Stan also changed the image. This is typical of the poor who often make a blueprint or mock up in their mind’s eye, but they keep changing it every few seconds. A person’s powerful life force energy cannot create the blueprint, unless there is some consistency in the thought process.

The mind becomes confused as to which picture to formulate. An individual must think of a notion and hold it in the brain for a few seconds without thinking of the worst possible scenarios. The brain asks your consciousness, “Should the result be the negative fixation or the fleeting winning idea?”

One can start to change his or her thought process by visualizing the negative imaging disintegrating and replacing it once again with the positive one. It is possible to change your thought process and start to create abundance. I told Stan to go home, and cut out pictures of cars and paste them on a board and look at it everyday. I also asked him to write down a paragraph about what it was like to drive his future car as if it had already happened, and to draw of picture of himself driving the car he wanted.

After much work in changing his thought process, he eventually went on to own a car of his own.

The more concrete your thoughts are, the easier it is for them to manifest. Writing down a paragraph about how you’d like to live your life and then drawing pictures of it, forces the mind to start to focus on the manifestation long enough to create it.

Let’s do an exercise to put this into practice. Write down where you would like to see yourself in five years. Put in the details of it including objects you own, where you live, what are the activities of a typical day in your life.

Now is the time to draw a picture. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any artistic talent. Use stick figures if you must, but see yourself in the picture. This makes your energy create the desired outcome. If the picture is clear, your energy will start to generate it. Happy creating!

15.  When Will I Meet My Soulmate?


Are There Really Soulmates?
Often as I give a clairvoyant reading, I am asked, "When am I going to meet my soulmate?" The timing of a future relationship can be read in a person’s aura. The way I read this is by first looking at the seeker’s aura as a color. Then I slide his or her energy along an imaginary timeline and I see if there is a change of color over a particular month or year, as I silently ask myself this question. If there is a change, then good news--this person will meet a romantic match. If there is not a change, and his or her energy goes along a timeline far into the future and off the timeline, then bad news--given his or her current activity schedule and energy, he or she is not on a path to meet a mate.
Don't worry--a future prediction is not always set in stone. You can change your future based on your thoughts and actions. This means that if meeting your mate is not on your direct path, you need to change your path and actions. Perhaps your soulmate lives on the other side of town and does not work at the same location as you, nor does he or she shop at the same stores. You must increase your chances of meeting your soulmate by altering your current spiritual path by joining a singles book club, church group, the Sierra Club singles, or post your personal ad online.

One example of this situation occurred when I gave a clairvoyant reading to a woman, Sarah, (not her real name). Sarah asked me the question,

“When will I meet my tall, dark, handsome man?” Clairvoyantly I moved her energy slowly along a timeline for her future life. After seven years, there still was not a change in the vibration or color of her future, meaning that she would not meet her man within that time.

I told her “Given your current path, you will not meet him in the next seven years unless you change your path.”

The room was silent, then Sarah spoke, “You mean that I can’t just continue to go to work, the ladies’ gym and to the same grocery store to meet my match?”

“That’s right,” I replied. Sarah decided to adjust her schedule to include going to places that she did not normally frequent. She also joined some clubs and engaged in some social activities. As a result, she was able to speed up her path and meet her new beau, Mark.
Next comes the question of soulmates. I have read many people who asked me if they have a soulmate. I almost always see that people have more than one soulmate or spiritual lifetime partner to choose from who will help them complete their growth here on earth. I have seen up to twelve soulmates for one person. This doesn’t mean that you have to have a serious love-relationship with 12 people! It merely means that you have many choices. Some people can choose the soulmate that they want to spend their life with. A soulmate will help you complete your growth here on earth by providing an energetic agreement. Many people who help us grow will not be romantic partners, but instead, will be your siblings, parents or teachers.

Soulmate can also be a spirit that was once united with you. You have split and become separate. Having a life together completes you and your mate. We are all of the same source, spirit, or a part of God. In a sense, we are all soulmates with each other. We are one, yet striving to find our own separate identity and unique vibration to become “pure of heart”. Once we achieve this vibration, then we have truly reached enlightenment.
Will you be ready to meet your soulmate once you have changed your current schedule, path and actions? Not only do you need to physically change your path, but you need to spiritually change as well. The more "whole" you are spiritually, the easier it is to find your match.

The final question is, "How do you become whole as a spirit, and prepare yourself to be a great partner to your new mate?"

The answer: Clear your stuck thoughts and negative energies from your inner essence. Begin now to learn psychic tools to change energy and thought patterns in your electromagnetic field. Finding a clairvoyant teacher to help you facilitate your growth can help you to start to resonate at your highest vibration. This will make fewer obstacles on your path towards love and will help you to attract your true companion. -Vessa Rinehart-Phillips [Go Back]

16.  What Does Your Aura Reveal about You?

The aura, an energy field extending about two feet around the body, has been referred to as “the window to one’s soul.”  All living things, including animals and plants, have an aura made of energy. This energy radiates from the cells and the chakras, which are referred to as “energy centers.”  This energy produces color vibration.

Sometimes you can actually see a glowing color around a person’s body. At a metaphysical church where I once worked, I often could see a golden light around the body of a teacher after she completed a meditation.

The coloring, shape, and size of the aura can tell many things about a person’s personality, disposition, and thoughts. If there are multiple bright colors in the aura, then it shows that the individual has many interests. If there are only two colors in the aura, then often the person is focused on only two aspects in his life.

If you are constantly thinking about the future, your aura will extend out in front of you, and become thinner behind you. If you are often thinking about the past, for example--recalling your high school or reflecting on your college days, your aura will extend behind you. There is a tendency for certain cultures to tend to hold their aura in a particular position. Here in the United States, our auras tend to be greatly extended in front of us--showing that our focus is on the future and what’s going to happen next. In certain parts of Southern Europe, the aura of the older generation tends to extend behind them--remembering a better time into the past.

The aura reflects your spiritual health, so if you are stressed, angry, are influenced by other’s thoughts, then this condition will be reflected in the aura, as dark colors or bright white. If you are frequently tired, you might be extending your aura out to encompass the whole room. You then pick up energy from others, which lowers your stamina. When a person becomes ill, his or her aura shrinks in size to assist in the healing process. Shrinking the aura helps to ensure that you don’t pick up stray energies.

Energy isn’t good or bad. It’s either yours or not yours. It is as if each person has his or her own brand of fuel or energy. If one put his energy and thoughts into someone else, it might make her feel good for a period of time, but eventually she will not feel good because she is not being herself. Energy works best if you have your own energy in your own aura. Having your own energy in your aura is reflected by vivid or pastel colors.

The positioning and size of the aura is not finite and can change. By receiving an aura healing from a clairvoyant reader can causes the dark colors, holes and tears to get released from the aura, allowing you, the spirit, to heal yourself. Once the spirit heals itself, the body starts to heal itself. Hence the saying, “Heal the spirit and the spirit heals the body.”

You can also learn to heal your own aura. One way of doing this is by learning to read the aura of someone else. When you learn to read someone else’s aura, you start to process your own similar experiences. You might become aware of shared experiences. This is called a “Matching Picture.” Perhaps you fell off of a horse when you were 12 years old and the person you are reading also fell off a horse when they were young, you've found a matching picture.

Once you feel as if you have a matching picture with this person, then you can use psychic tools learned in the clairvoyant program to release the matching picture or thought. You free up your energy from this thought and you feel better at the end of the aura reading.

I once hurt my knee in a heated tennis match. Over the next two months, several of the people coming in to see me for readings had various knee problems. I got to look clairvoyantly at each person and see how each was handling his or her knee problem. I was able to release my “matching pictures” and become neutral to my own knee situation. Gaining this neutrality enabled me to heal my knee without surgery just by processing the stuck energy in the limb.

“Can everyone learn to read an aura?” you might ask. Yes, everyone can learn to read an aura. Many people already read auras, but they are not aware that they are doing so. They walk into the office and unknowingly notice that their co-worker has bright green in the second layer (the relationship layer). They just have a gut feeling that the co-worker is excited about someone in her life.

They say, “You look good today.”
The co-worker answers, “I just got engaged over the weekend and I’m so happy.”

This leads to the next question people ask me, “Is there a color scale for an aura?” meaning is there a set distinct meaning for each color. There is no color scale, but there are some universal color definitions.

The best way to give an accurate reading is to go within and come up with your own answer as to what this color means. See if a word or feeling comes to you as you concentrate on that color in their aura. See if a scene appears in your mind’s eye of this person doing a particular activity as you

Ask yourself “What does this color mean? What word or feeling do I get from it?” Don’t just take someone else’s color definition, because then you don’t end up giving an accurate reading with your own information and spiritual gifts.

Over the years, for my own readings, I have notice that the color of lime green often symbolizes change or growth, especially if you have been experiencing a negative situation for your whole life or a long time and it has just been relieved or solved.

Red can mean enthusiasm, female energy, anger or the person’s mother, but again it is best to go within and ask your inner voice silently to get the most accurate description to what the colors mean.

There are seven main layers of the aura that correspond with the main energy centers in the body.

Layer number one is next to the body. Layer number two is a few inches out from the body is further away, and so on, until you reach the seventh layer which is furthest away from the body.

Here is a guideline to the layers to help you get started in reading:

* The first layer usually relates to the body and environment, and often reflects your health.

* The second layer relates to emotions or love-relationships.

* The third layer relates to power and is often expressed in the seeker’s work or career.

* The fourth is the body-being layer, and often shows your relationship to your birth family.

* The fifth layer would be the communication layer, conveying whether or not you have ease or frustration in your ability to communicate to others.

* The sixth layer shows how they see the world, and their outlook.

* The seventh or outermost layer and is a sign you show the world. One might display colors communicating, “I’m happy. I’m sad. I’m capable. I’m scared. I’m intelligent.”

Here is an additional step to read someone else’s aura. It helps to close your eyes to help you tune into your sixth chakra and inner voice in the center of your head.

Ask yourself silently what color is the first layer of your friend sitting next to you? Listen internally for the answer. Let the first color that comes to you be the correct answer. Do not second guess or doubt your answer.

Now, ask yourself what does this color in her first layer tell you about her? (Again, the first layer relates to the body and the environment.) See if you get a sense or feeling or a word comes to you that describe this person’s body or environment. Asking your self silent questions aids in reading. What word, feeling, or image did you receive about this person?

Congratulations! You have now taken your first step towards being a clairvoyant reader. [Go Back]

17.  Energy Cords:

Why You Can’t Get That Man/Woman Out of Your Head?

Arnold kept thinking of his ex-girlfriend, Mary, everyday for six months. It seemed that he had gotten over her, but then he kept thinking about her again and again. He didn’t know it but he had an energy cord in his aura connecting him to Mary.

Energy cords are lines of energy that link one person to another, often connecting the energy centers or chakras. Cords get created when there is unfinished communication or for a purpose of giving or receiving energy. A cord can have three functions: one to receive energy, one to send energy, and one to both send and receive energy. Some cords naturally disintegrate when the conversation is finished. Those are the cords that we don’t need to be concerned over. It’s the cords that linger that can cause problems.

Beth was a manager a software company. She had many employees needing her help on a project they were working on. The employees created cords to her crown chakra her third chakra. The purpose of the cords in the crown chakra was to siphon information for the project. The cords in the third chakra were cords to demand Beth’s attention. None of this would have been a big problem if the cords were removed a few seconds after they were created. Beth went home and still felt like she was at work. She even could “hear” chatter in her head when she closed her eyes. She constantly felt drained and did not know why. The energy cords in the chakras were literally draining her. At the institute, Beth learned psychic tools to gently remove the cords after the days’ work. She also learned that she had thoughts in her aura and consciousness that allowed for people to cord into her. She started to remove the thoughts. Thoughts are real and can act as a doorway for energy cords. She wanted to be available and helpful to her employees, just like when she was the oldest child while growing up, she wanted to be available and helpful to the younger children. Through the use of some spiritual tools, she learned that she could still be supportive in the work environment without taking on other people’s energy.

Cords have different meaning when they connect into different chakras. A cord going into your first chakra from another person usually means that they need some information on surviving. They could want money, food, or security from you. Small children receive survival information from their parents or whoever takes care of them. If this cord is severed, then the child is unsettled. The cord later is naturally removed when the child becomes self-sufficient and manufactures his or her own survival information.

Cords connecting the second chakra to second chakra in two people usually relates to attraction. A man or woman will send a line of energy into the second chakra if he or she is interested in the other person. I once saw a married woman who experienced energy cords into her second chakra from single men. Flirtatious co-workers and grocery store workers turned her on. She did not want these cords in her second chakra because she wanted to remain faithful to her husband. She realized that she had thoughts and pictures stored in her aura from earlier in her life allowing these energy connections into her.

When she was 16, she was quite homely and could not get a date to the prom while her two older sisters were beautiful. Later on she blossomed into an attractive woman and now she was inundated with energy cords. She removed the thought and was able to keep others’ cords from going into her chakras.

It is fascinating to realize how much energy affects people. What you cannot see can affect you. Often a physical problem can have an energetic cause. I once read a lady who had back pain. Clairvoyantly I saw an energy cord going into the posterior of her aura from her brother. Her brother was going through a period in his life where he was experiencing fear and uncertainty because he had been laid off from his job. He had an energetic habit of attaching his energy to his older sister when he had been afraid as a child. Now as an adult, he did the same thing. He unconsciously attached a energy cord into his older sister who now lives in another city and siphons some of her energy to help him feel more confident. Meanwhile, his sister can’t understand why she suddenly doesn’t feel as energized as usual. She started to feel drain and even had to have extra sleep for no apparent reason.

To a clairvoyant reader, it is clear what is happening. A clairvoyant reader who knows how to use psychic tools can give this woman a healing and remove the energetic cord so she will feel energized again. What is even better, is that this woman can take a class and learn how to heal herself so she can be self sufficient and not need to go to the reader when she feels drained.

In conclusion, I have assembled a few telltale signs to know if you have cords in your aura:

1.) You feel tired for no reason.

2.) You continually think about someone even after they are not around.

3.) You have a small rash in a circular pattern over your heart or on your neck.

Remember, cords can’t permeate your aura unless you have a picture or doorway to allow it to happen. [Go Back]

18.  Spirit to Spirit Communication

Nothing is more powerful than a spirit-to-spirit hello. Saying hello to people’s souls is an acknowledgement to their essences, their energies not to their bodies. This form of communication can be given by sensing the brightest color in their aura and saying hello to that as a vibration. This way of communicating can be an acknowledgement of a greeting in which you don’t really want or need anything from them.

In the clairvoyant program, students learn to say hello to a person as a soul and not just as a body. One way a student does this is by creating a gold rose, putting in the word "hello" and sending it to someone else in the room. The student had drained his or her energy off of the rose so the salutation is completely neutral without judgment. He or she sends it though time and space imagining it going over from the center of his or her head. The gesture is one of appreciating the spirit, “Hello. I see you.”

When I was a student in training, I decided to try out this ability while driving my car. I came upon an intersection and saw the silhouette of a man in the next lane driving a pick up truck. His window was about two feet in front of mine at the intersection and he could not see me, and I could not see his face because of the positioning of our vehicles. I envisioned saying hello to this man’s soul. The light then turned green and we both sped off to the next junction. I quickly let go of what I had done and started to think about other things. I turned and drove four blocks and parked my car in the parking lot of my destination.

As I emerged out of my vehicle, a man I did not recognize pulled up in front of me as I walked towards the sidewalk. He rolled down his window and inquired, “Excuse me. Did you say hello to me?”

I was startled. “Well yes, I did,” I said. He smiled and wanted to know what I wanted when I said hello to him. He seemed as bewildered as I was.

Lewis Bostwick, who started several psychic institutes in California, once attended a renaissance fair with his wife’s family. Her brother-in-law told Lewis that he didn’t believe in psychic abilities or in clairvoyance. Lewis usually wouldn’t try to prove himself, but this time, he decided that he would. As the six of them made their way though the thousands of people at the fair, Lewis whispered into the ear of his brother-in-law, “Did you see that lady in the green dress that just walked passed us? I’ll say hello to her and she’ll come back through the crowd to see us.”

The brother-in-law rolled his eyes in sarcasm, murmuring, “I’ll believe it when I see it.”

Within a few seconds, the lady in the green dress tapped Lewis on the shoulder and said, “Did you say hello to me?” The brother-in-law was shocked. He wondered if it was a trick, yet he had seen it with his own eyes.

Sometimes clairvoyant readers are asked how it is that they can read someone over the phone? Because of the ability of spirit-to-spirit communication, looking at someone’s body is not necessary. You can also speak to someone telepathically who is in another country. When a reader trained at the institute learns to read, he is asked to close his eyes in order to access the sixth chakra. However, closing your eyes, also aids in tuning into the seeker as a spirit and not to his or her body.

When I first was teaching clairvoyant classes, I would lecture in the in the evening, but work at an office doing accounting in the daytime. My accounting boss, named John, knew that I had a second job helping people to develop their intuition. He was also a doubting Thomas, not believing that there was any validity to clairvoyance. One day while I was doing my work, John came over to my desk and started to invalidate the authenticity of spiritual abilities, even though he was a good Catholic. I, too, suddenly got the urge to play the game of “Prove It” with John. John had fired an employee a few weeks ago named Steve, so I told John that I was going to transcend time and space and contact Steve spirit to spirit and ask him to call me at work while he was standing at my desk. I tuned into Steve as a color. He was vibrating at a beautiful turquoise blue. I silently said, “Hello Steve. Please call me at work.”

John heckled me and walked started to walk away from my work area. When he got about ten feet away from me, the phone rang. I picked it up and it was Steve. In disbelief, John rushed back towards me and grabbed the phone from my ear.

“Steve?” he queried. After John realized it really was Steve, he became awkward, because he was speaking to an employee that he had fired. He handed the phone back to me. Steve told me that he was sitting at home and unexpectedly got the message to call me, his former co-worker.

Sending a spirit-to-spirit hello is not an ability that can only be done by a few people, but can be done by everyone. It takes some practice to truly give someone an acknowledgement without intention or energy attached to it. Send someone a spirit-to-spirit hello today and start to develop this for yourself.

19.  Can YOU Really Make a Difference in the World?

Sometimes we don’t develop our spiritual abilities because we don’t really believe that we can make a difference in the world with intention, psychic energy or thought. We’ve never been taught that thinking or our energy can change anything while we are growing up, and then we don’t make much effort to alter the world. However, there have been numerous studies that proved contrary to this belief.

In Debra Williams’ book Scientific Research of Prayer: Can the Power of Prayer Be Proven? In a study on germinating seeds created by Dr. Franklin Loehr, a Presbyterian minister and scientist, the objective was to see in a controlled experiment what effect prayer had over living and seemingly non-living matter. In one experiment they took three pans of varying seeds. One was the control pan. One pan received positive prayer, and the other received negative prayer. Time after time, the results indicated that prayer helped speed germination and produced more vigorous plants. Negative prayers actually halted germination in a number of plants and suppressed growth in others.

In another experiment two bottles of spring water were purchased. One container was used as a control, receiving no prayer; a group of people prayed for the second. The water was then used on pans of corn seeds layered in cotton, with one pan receiving the prayer water and the other receiving the control water. The pan receiving the prayer water sprouted a day earlier than seeds in the other pan. The prayer seeds had a higher germination and growth rate. The experiment was repeated with the same result each time.

Dr. Dossey, in his book, Be Careful What You Pray For, looks closely at experiments with microorganisms. He states, "Skeptics who do not believe in the
