Monthly RoundUp - The Best of Psychic Awakenings December Blogs

Hello!  I am at the end of my 30-Day Blogging Challenge. At the beginning I really wondered how the heck I was going to come up with thirty blogs in thirty days.  BUT I DID IT!  My blogs were generally of two types: techniques for being psychic and information for enhancing your spiritual awareness. Listed here are links to the five posts that were the most read.

1) Everything Springs From Self Love

This post was far and away the most widely read. Self Love is the highest common denominator.

2) Psychic Awakenings Graduates Move On Up

Well! We know who looked at this one the most! But I've included it anyway because the graduates accomplished so very much spiritual growth. Some of them have already hung out their shingles to be of service to others.

3) Tarot the Intuitive Way

Learn to read tarot cards without spending hours memorizing meanings. Developing your own meanings leads to empowering readings.

4) What Color is My Aura?

The colors in your aura reflect your energetic vibration. You can use your colors to heal yourself.

5) What Will I Learn in Psychic School?

The Clairvoyant Awareness Program is more than learning how to do aura readings and energy healings.  It's about increasing your awareness of yourself as a Spirit; and your Spiritual abilities to communicate and create.

There you have it! I hope that each of the blog was beneficial for you in some way. Was there another post which is not listed above that really spoke to you? Please let me know if there is a specific topic about which you would like more information.

Take good care,

Your Most Precious Possession is Your Attention

Your most precious possession is your attention. Focusing your attention on something is giving it your energy, whether it be people, things, opportunities or problems. Whatever you give your energy to becomes more real for you. The energy you're giving it is what feeds it, so it grows.

From the moment we are born we focus our attention on the world around us. At first this is a good thing as we learn about the world and how things work. As we get older, more and more external things demand our attention. Parents and teachers are always saying, "Pay attention." TV and advertisements claim our attention non-verbally with images of people being sexy and having fun. Friends and work situations demand your attention to their problems. Even before we become adults, we are quite burned out with our energy going out to too many external demands.

By giving our attention and our energy away like this, we end up not even knowing ourselves.  Who we are, what we feel and why we are here. This is why self-care and meditation are crucial to our lives. You have to give your body attention and energy to stay physically healthy. You have to give your feelings attention to stay emotionally healthy. Equally important is paying attention to your spiritual life. Give energy to the things and activities that make you feel alive, enthused and connected to yourself and other people.

Here is a meditation for re-owning your attention and energy.  Sit in a straight-back chair with your feet flat on the ground. Close your eyes and take some deep breaths. Send a beam of energy from the base of your spine down to the center of the earth. Make it as wide as your hips and give it a strong attachment to the earth. Intend that you are pulling in your personal space, your aura, close around your body. Make your grounding into a vacuum hose and have it pull everyone else's energy out out your space. Anyone who has their attention on your can be sent down your grounding. You can also release any body tension and emotional energy down your grounding. Do this for several minutes until you feel your body relaxing.

Create, intend or visualize a golden sun above your head. Call back all of your energy and attention back from everything, everywhere, every person you've given it to. Spend several minutes doing this and watching your golden sun get bigger and brighter until it almost fills the room. Now let the golden sun energy flow down through your space and absorb it into your body. Fill up all the new spaces you created when you released everyone else's energy out of your space. When you feel full and complete, stand up or bend over and stretch your body.

Blessings for 2015 to all of you!

"How Do I Know That I'm Not Just Making It Up?"

"How do I know that I'm not just making it up?" is a question that every single one of my new students asks! When the students are first learning how to read, they are more concerned with the technical aspects of reading (as opposed to the spiritual aspects).  When they sit down for the first few readings, they feel like they don't have any idea about how to read. So they are all amazed that even the few things that they venture to say during a reading are validated by the readee.  

This is because it is already human nature to read other people. Most people do it unconsciously because they just haven't yet learned to be aware of doing it. Notice the next time you first meet someone, what you feel, think or just know about him or her. Usually the first feelings you get are about to how wide open the other person is towards interacting with you. You can feel if they are emitting a strong energy field, or a quieter one. Think back to any times when you did just know something about a person you just met, and you were surprised to find out that your "hunches" were right. 

At our readings, the students have permission to use their psychic and clairvoyant abilities. There is a strong agreement that being psychic is real. The new students sit alongside a more advanced reader so that there is no pressure on them to say anything at all.  Long before even sitting in the readings, the students learn how to set their energy centers, or chakras, at a level that is conducive for reading and communicating. 

When they use all of their psychic tools, then the information just comes naturally to them, without any effort at all. At first they don't know where the information is coming from, so they do feel like they are "just making it up."  But with validating feedback from the readees, they learn how to vibrate just right at the "sweet spot." That sweet spot is the vibration of being in spiritual communication with another soul. There's just no way you could fake that or make it all up.

Peace be with you,
Madeline

What Does Christmas Mean to You?

Today is Christmas day. I hope you find that this day has some kind of meaning for you. Like any other day of the year, the meaning of Christmas is the meaning that you give it. As children, our parents create Christmas for us by setting up activities and bringing us presents. Some adults are still waiting for others to create Christmas for them. They wait for others to bring them presents and create Christmas-y things to do. Then they are often disappointed.

So if you are disappointed with how you experience this day, it's time to take responsibility for yourself and look deeper within yourself.  Here's a psychic energy exercise to help you get started:

Sit in a straight-backed chair with your feet on the ground. Visualize, feel or deliberately send down a grounding beam of energy all the way to the center of the earth.  Give it roots and make sure the energy is flowing in a downwards direction. Using your clairvoyance, look around inside your personal space for any energy that is blocking you from having a meaningful Christmas.  

If you don't think you have any clairvoyance, then ask yourself, "Well, if I did have clairvoyance, what would I see?" You might see images of your family not enjoying Christmas. You might see just balls of energy that look dark and old. You might "hear" people telling you to not be so enthused. Or you might just feel the energy of disillusionment or punishment. 

Turn your ground cord into a vacuum and let it gently pull out anything you see, hear, feel or know. Let it pull it out and all the way down to the center of the earth. Now create or visualize a giant golden sun about your head. Fill that golden sun with pictures that you create. You can create pictures of spiritual fulfillment, prosperity, joy, gratitude, giving and receiving, feeling connected, etc.  Allow the golden sun energy to flow down through your space, and fill your aura with the pictures that you created. Absorb the energy into every cell of your body. Let it be a tremendous healing. Send some golden energy down your grounding also.  When you feel complete, stand up and stretch.

Everything in your life was created on an energy level first. It is more effective when you create consciously like this exercise demonstrates. I recommend that you use it every day of the year.  It may not feel very real at first. But all great talents are developed through daily practice.

Blessing for today and everyday.

Spiritual Communication: We Ain't No Muggles Here!

My blog yesterday was all about sending psychic "Hellos" out to people.  The word "psychic" also means "telepathic" or "spiritual." For me, the main purpose of doing psychic readings is to give spiritual hellos to people. "Hello! I see you inside that body." "Hello! I see what you are creating with your energy." "Hello! I see what is hindering your spiritual growth." "Hello! I see the filters that you look out through when you interpret your reality." 

Spiritual communication is different from all other communication. I teach my psychic students to communicate with neutrality, without judgement and without telling the readee that they need to be anything different than they are. When the clients receive a Hello in this way, they are able to take the information and make their own decisions. They are reminded that they too are a spirit. We don't teach them anything they don't know. We just remind them what they have forgotten! 

The readers also let the readees know that they (the readers) are not special. The readees are also sensitive, or they wouldn't have come in for a reading. The readees could just as easily be sitting on their side of the room giving readings to people. 

Giving psychic readings is not about impressing anyone with your psychic abilities. It's about spiritual communication.  A spiritual Hello can be the first step on the path to spiritual awareness. Spiritual awareness leads to spiritual freedom. This means freedom from limiting beliefs and other programming that controls your life. Releasing these beliefs gives you more freedom to make decisions that serve you. It also helps you to find your own truths of why you are here and what you are supposed to be doing.

If you would like to receive a spiritual Hello like this, you can register online for a reading from the clairvoyant students at www.PsychicAwakenings.com/registeronline.shtml.

Hello! Hello! Hello!

Thoughts: Silent But Powerful

In previous posts, I've written several times about sensitive people feeling bombarded. What is it exactly that is bombarding them?  Most often it is other people's thoughts. Thoughts are a powerful form of energy. Especially the thoughts that are super-charged by emotions such as anger and hatred.  Often, people send out bolts of energy without even attaching any thoughts to them.  Surely, you've been able to physically feel the anger of someone standing next to you. Very sensitive people may even walk away with a stomach or headache after absorbing someone else's anger.  

I learned about powerful thoughts first hand in the first meditation class that I took.  I was slouching on a couch feeling rather disaffected and thinking, "I don't like this teacher. Her clothes are really boring. I don't like her haircut either." All of the sudden, she turned to me and sharply scolded, "Stop throwing energy at me!"  I was totally dumbfounded. Mostly because I knew that I had had similar experiences all my life either thinking too loudly or being on the receptive end of other people's thought and emotions. But now I had a vocabulary for it and could be aware of it! 

This kind of communication also works for positive thoughts and emotions. Many years later I was eating dinner with some friends in a rather nice, but casual, restaurant. A group of about eight people came in and sat down about six feet away, in the middle of the room. I thought they had such wonderful energy that I sent a telepathic "Hello" over to them. The very first split second afterwards I had already let it go and forgot about it. The very next split second, they all looked up right at me with startled looks on their faces!  They had heard me! I was really shy in those days, and looked away quickly. But the man who seemed to be the one in charge would not stop looking at me until I finally looked up and smiled. 

I invite you to think about and remember similar experiences that you have had, both positive and negative. You can also explore this further by practicing sending out "Hello" to people. Look for the responses on people's faces or in their behavior. You can even send Hellos to people you know whom are not present at that moment.  Wait for the phone calls saying, "Hello! I hope this doesn't sound strange, but I had this sudden urge to call you."

Let me know what you discover!

Spiritual Growth Happens in Your Physical Body

When you are a serious energy reader and worker, you have to take very good care of your body. Learning how use your clairvoyance and other psychic abilities puts your body through many spiritual growth periods as it adjusts to your rising energy levels. Our psychic students learn that they can pass through the growth periods gracefully, or not so gracefully. The difference lies in how well they treat their bodies.

When you do not take good care of your body, working with energy can be overwhelming. If your body is not getting its needs met, fear can become a major block to developing your psychic abilities.  Many people have told me that they do not mess around with anything psychic because they are afraid. Afraid of what they might find out, or afraid that something bad will happen to them.  This is the body's fear. The body is a concrete object and identifies with other concrete objects. Anything it cannot see or hear is foreign, unreal and scary for many bodies. 

You have to take care of your body for it to trust you. You have to give it what it needs to feel healthy, grounded and safe. For those of you who are on the other side of the spectrum, too sensitive and hoping to close down, it is especially crucial to take care of your physical body. It becomes unbearable for the body to constantly feel bombarded by other people's energy.

Here's a list of what your body needs to feel safe while you are opening up psychically:

1) Food, water, oxygen and sleep: No need to say more.

2) Personal space:  Clearly defined boundaries are necessary for protection from foreign energies.

3) Movement: Bodies need to move and pump the blood throughout the body for optimal health.

4) Sex: Survival of the species is a very deep body instinct that cannot be ignored by adults.  

5) Human touch: Physical touch provides connection with others. It also validates the body that it exists and has a right to be here.  Isolation results in mental illness.

You are here on this planet to learn how to bring your spiritual awareness into your physical body.You have to take responsibility for your body so that it can handle your spiritual energy vibration. If you want to be comfortable in your body, be nice to it and nurture it. You will not go anywhere without it.

Be happy, be kind, be grounded.
