PERSPECTIVE
How dreaming helps focus A
great way to train the brain to focus is to day dream. Day dreaming is usually when we sit and look at something, really look at it explore all aspects, consider its size, colour texture even if it has a smell. Temporarily we don’t think about anything else, for a moment or two we forget everything and get lost in thinking about only one thing. Other people might think we are wasting time, I prefer to think of it as a different kind of focus. And when we have clearer focus, we get better results in everything we do. With a little mindful practise, you can tune into the place where you are and what you are doing, the extra chatter in your mind will slow down and with continued practise cease. A good tool is to pause for a short time before you begin a task. Pull your attention to what you are trying to achieve, have an idea of how long you want to spend on this task and then, when you are finished hand it in, put it away, offer it up. There is no need to return to a project completed. A busy life often asks us to spend small amounts of time on many projects, never allowing any one thing to be started and finished in one session. Saying we are not finished protects us from having the project judged by ourselves or others. The amount of energy lost by having half done things running around in the back of our minds is huge, causing us to think about it again and again, then we might add a bit of guilt or regret - emotional energy thieves – and we will have
even less energy reserved for the motivation to return and finish the project. Simply by being aware of what we are doing we have access to the unlimited field of all knowledge. When the mind is quiet and focused new ideas and solutions can arrive. If you get to a point where you are not sure how to proceed just ask! Send the thought from your clear, focused mind out to the universe and you will be pleasantly surprised by the answers that appear as new ideas. A great time to do this is before you go to sleep. In the state known as the hypnagogic state your consciousness is clear and your egoic mind has already signed off for the day. Hold the question and if you are feeling anxious or worried know that your ego is still involved creating emotions. Simply focus back to the question and release any other thoughts take the question with you as you enter the dream state. When you wake just before you remember all the things that make up your life, write down the first thoughts that appear and consider how they relate to answering your question. The Dalai Lama is reported to meditate 4 hours every day and if he has a busy schedule, he increases his meditation to 6 hours. Mary Holstein, founder of Gnostic Corner. Busy focusing on all my almost completed Gnostic projects! G

Family: Trigger or Inspiration? T
he family gathering. We look forward to it with a hint of trepidation. Many people have stress around getting together with family – sometimes just the thought can lower our vibe. It doesn’t have to mean we don’t love our tribe, or that we didn’t like our childhood; there are many factors that contribute to the vague discomfort of the family bash, some conscious (Uncle Jerry’s awkward jokes, Dad and Aunty Sue’s constant sniping), and some completely unconscious. Sometimes called our ‘first family’, the people we lived with as a very young child had a major impact on the first beliefs that we formed about life and ourselves. Those are the beliefs that seem like absolute truth, and even if they are totally unhelpful to us now, they’re usually the hardest to shake. In a simple example, the idea that Mum and Dad’s approval = survival was a healthy and natural belief for a baby but can wreak havoc when making choices as an adult. Being around the relo’s can throw us right back into our child-self. Have you ever found yourself at a family picnic, your life all together and your issues firmly worked on, suddenly and irrationally bickering with a sibling? Or falling mute in the face of Mum’s loud opinion, or Gran’s veiled racism? Family patterns are so strong, and we have all been playing our role
since the very beginning of our lives. And if you decide you want to change your role; the other family members will unconsciously work to maintain the old dynamic – because nobody likes change. If all this isn’t enough, consider that we might even choose our parents before entering this physical body. We might have chosen the very people who could cause us to learn and grow the most, to become more of our true selves. Abraham-Hicks talk about relationships ‘harassing you into expansion’, the idea being that the more unpleasant someone is, the more they ‘help’ you to get clarity on what you’d prefer. So before the next family festivity, ask yourself: Are any of my beliefs being triggered, and can those beliefs can be softened in some way? What role have I been playing and how can I change it? How do these relationships help me to expand and become more of myself? And try to find something to appreciate, even if it is just the opportunity for growth!

Kurradji DReaming Kurradji is an Aboriginal word for traditional healers who use energetic and physical modalities with a holistic approach. They believe that the body is made up of mind, body, and spirit – these are not treated separately – they are all one.
V
an life is not always a picnic. Believe me. I know it sounds like a romantic ideal, but the reality of dust storms in 34°C heat are just not fun. The days that I despair about wasting precious hours on the basic logistics of life like finding laundrettes and a shower, I am always reminded that what we do is changing lives. In late 2018 my partner Jason Engelbrecht and I started planning to take our healing work out from our Northern Beaches home, to a wider audience. So in March this year we said goodbye to the little granny flat we’d called home for 18 months, culled our belongings, and put the precious things into storage. Our healing work is referred to as a spiritual alignment, because our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies are brought home to balance with a deep sense of connection to our own soul. We ventured to the Blue Mountains, Bathurst, Orange, and Dubbo on our first trip west, and connected with soul family every step of the way. Because we had taken that step, the doors were ready to open, and our clients waiting to see us. Shortly before we left, we had decided to expand our options to be able to assist more people. Jason is known as a Kurradji – one of the
names given to an Aboriginal Medicine Man. In honour of his beautiful soul group of Medicine People in the spiritual hierarchy he works with, Kurradji Dreaming was born. It’s a group healing setting, and during the 2 hours, we take people on a journey to the seat of their soul. To the place where our star ancestors hold us in deep communion. Every Kurradji Dreaming is different, just like every individual spiritual alignment session is different for our clients. The group setting can be intensely powerful due to the yearning of every soul there to pull in more of their wisdom and gifts, and feel the presence of their ancestors. We love running Kurradji Dreaming at Gnostic Forest because the crystal beings come in and intensify the energy even more. Being travelling healers, we can’t be in the healing room every day, but they are our favourite days. Where we hold our clients in sacred space and allow their bodies’ innate intelligence to get on with their own healing and alignment. Shelley McConaghy and her partner Jason offer spiritual alignments as a duo across NSW, deepening people’s connection to their spirit. See more at www.divinebalance.com.au G

2020
THE yeAR of THE rat
T
he first new moon of 2020 is the Chinese New Year. January 25th is the start of the year of the Metal Rat. The last time we had this combination was in 1960. Those born during this influence can be expected to be sensitive, strong, self aware, persuasive and have a ready tongue! The Rat is the first of all zodiac animals. According to myth, the Jade Emperor decided the years would be known according to the order in which the animals arrived to his party. The Rat tricked the Ox into giving him a ride. Then, just as they arrived at the finish line, Rat jumped down and landed ahead of Ox, becoming first. The Rat is also associated with the Earthly Branch and the midnight hours. In the terms of yin and yang , the Rat is yang and represents the beginning of a new day. In Chinese culture, rats were seen as a sign of wealth and surplus. Because of their reproduction rate, married couples also prayed to them for children.
2020 will be a lucky and prosperous year for all. Everyone will show determination regarding their goals, aspirations, and even their hobbies. This is a great year for founding and evolving. Those who plan to buy real estate, to start a business or to invest money in a long-term project have great chances of being satisfied in the future. But, beware! This type of initiatives will only be successful if they are carefully planned. Rats are clever, quick thinkers – successful, but content with living a quiet and peaceful life. Recent years of the Rat are: 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, and 2008. Famous people born in the year of the Rat include George Washington, Prince Charles, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cameron Diaz.

Frankincense & Myrrh
A tale of ancient gifts
T
is the season! And with Christmas just around the corner, let’s take a step back in time to the original gift bearers, the Magi – Three Wise Men who followed the star to Bethlehem where the Baby Jesus lay. They carried with them precious gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. “And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh” (Matthew 2:11). These Magi were known as healers, and thousands of years later, frankincense and myrrh resins and essential oils are recognised for their healing powers. More than just aromatic compounds, frankincense and myrrh have fascinating medicinal properties. They were highly sought-after for personal, religious and medicinal use. Their aromatics are venerated for their immediate uplifting and clarifying effects on the body and mind. Shamans, priests and healers used them in ritual, magic and medicine. In the Papyrus Ebers of 1500 B.C., priests recommended both resins for the treatment of wounds. Other ailments they were once reported to cure included hemlock poisoning, leprosy, worms, snakebites, diarrhea, plague, scurvy and even baldness! In times before daily bathing, people would burn the resin and use the fragrant smoke as a personal deodoriser. Egyptian women used the ash of frankincense by blending it into their eye shadow and gypsies used this blend to bless their amulets, talismans, charms, and magical tools. Frankincense and myrrh are from the same plant family (Burseraceae) and are both natural fu-
migants which have been used over the millennia for the dual purpose of disinfecting public spaces as well as lifting the spirits of the grieving and melancholic, hence the Catholic Church including the burning of them into specific rites (and some folk think of smudging as New Age RaRa WooWoo!) These ancient plants are renowned for their effects of supporting spiritual awareness, tranquillity, peacefulness and protection. They are healing on an emotional, physical and spiritual level. In ancient times, it was considered a pathway between the earthly and divine worlds and in aromatherapy today, it is used to promote relaxation, bringing inner peace and calm. I love that! From a magical point of view, Frankincense and Myrrh are an extraordinary amalgamation, akin to Yin and Yang, Adam and Eve, feminine and masculine, and are used to purify, bless, and protect. The deep scent of both in combination supports meditation, helps to awaken us to the spiritual side and expels negative vibrational energies. Benefits of Frankincense may include: • Immune booster • Antiseptic and disinfectant • manage stress and anxiety • Relieve indigestion and GI discomfort • Fade wrinkles and scars • Balance hormones and minimize PMS and menopause symptoms Pain relief for muscles, joints and tendons. Frankincense Magical Properties: Purification, spirituality, relaxation, focus, love, abundance. Ruling planet – Sun Sign – Aries, Leo, Aquarius; Element – Fire Gender – Masculine
Benefits of Myrrh may include: • Immune booster • Athletes foot and eczema • Wound healing • Respiratory issues • Reduce cholesterol • Digestive aid • Prevent hair loss • Fungicide • Detox • Parasite treatment • Anti-aging and healthy skin • Gingivitis, gum disease Myrrh Magical Properties: Protection, purification, healing, Crone, Underworld, courage.

Gnostic Mana Cafe features monthly exhibitions from the Central Coast’s leading artists. DECEMBER: Yuley Buist The Peninsula – the most beautiful place and I love living here. I work here and every day is a delight. Looking from the large overall picture to the tiniest thing there is always something to smile about. My work has been exhibited in the Mantra, The Community Gallery at Gosford for various exhibits such as the 20x20 and just recently for Mental Health. This work is largely about water. My happy place, as I think it is to many others. Most of my work is involving the sea or water somewhere. I think these paintings have a more evocative feel, whether it be energetic, dramatic, restful or just tongue in cheek play. I hope you enjoy them as I did painting them.
JANUARY: Lindy Currie
FEBRUARY: Bruce Felton I have had a passion for photography since I was a kid of 12 when my Dad first stuck a camera in my hand. I grew up at Narrabeen on the Northern Beaches of Sydney and always enjoyed taking photos of our many beaches and stunning coastline. In the early 90’s I decided to move my young family up to the beautiful Central Coast as I had always loved my yearly holidays at Avoca when I was a kid and thought it would be a much healthier environment to bring up my own kids than Sydney. Fast forward to June 2017 and I bought my first drone to start taking aerial photos of the Central Coast and Northern Beaches. This combined my passion of aircraft and photography and has, I think, taken photography as we know it to a new and exciting level, showcasing the beauty of our coastline from a perspective not possible prior to drones being available to the general public.

From my earliest years I have always needed to express my vision of the world around me by drawing and painting. I paint mostly landscapes in various mediums never ceasing to be amazed by what I see around me and have exhibited and sold my work in many parts of NSW. To me painting is a process of exploring, gaining knowledge and pushing the boundaries. I hope people looking at my work can sense the strong emotional connection I have to the subject matter. Since I have been living on the Central Coast the beautiful water views have inspired me to use stronger colours and to experiment with abstraction.

YOGA
Amazing India A
group of Peninsula Yoga clients and others recently travelled to India concerning questions of spirit. The tour group, led by one of Australia’s leading Yoga Educators Sunita Baste, headed off to the birthplace of yoga in pursuit of knowledge, healing and curiosity. Upon arriving in Delhi, the first thing I was noticed were the smells and colours of India. Not offensive but every sense is stimulated to the point of exhaustion. As you exit the airport India impacts upon you immediately, the noise, the crowds, cows, monkeys, very rich people and the beggars. You know you’ve arrived in a place entirely different to our western life of comfort. Our journey from the airport introduced us to the chaos of Indian peak hour traffic, every vehicle type imaginary, scooters sometimes with 4 or 5 passengers, cars, trucks and buses all sounding horns loudly combined with whatever animals are grazing on the periphery. There doesn’t appear to be any road rules, system or order. Upon closer examination there is actually a calmness amongst the disorder, the traffic flows and road rage doesn’t exist. Indian traffic just like the rest of India has a unique order and structure that our western minds have trouble comprehending. The first few days we visited temples of all religions and historic sites. Superb and beautiful architecture dedicated to various philosophies and the many invaders of India over centuries past. The “Jama Masjid” mosque is incredible and has an eerie feeling with vultures flying overhead in circular formations, a tuk tuk tour of the old Delhi area takes us straight into what looks like the set of an Indiana Jones movie, with its narrow lanes, crowds, merchants and beggars. The highlight and the pinnacle of architectural tour was the Taj Mahal, many photos were taken but unfortunately, they simply don’t capture the beauty and intricacies of this wonder of the world. The Discovery of Yoga tour started when we arrived in Rishikesh in the northern India. Yoga studios are abundant, yoga accessories of every type are available. An immersion in all thing’s Yoga and Ayurveda is the best way to describe this city. Meditating sages walk the streets interspersed
with many western yogic pilgrims, food vendors and merchants add to the mix. Walking the streets and imbibing the local energy creates a connection with the ancient sages of yoga. The highlight of the Rishikesh visit was the swimming/dunking in the Ganges River, the sacred Ganga. This is an experience I’d been planning for 20 years, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The tranquillity of the area, the turquoise colour of the water and the welcoming spiritual energy of the Ganga all combined to make this an enlightening ritual. Words cannot describe the power of the Ganges, it’s more of a feeling experience rather than something that can be recorded in words. I noticed that different religions live in harmony with each other in India, all religions seem to respect one another. The people are happy. They don’t have much in the way of material possessions but seem happy. A distinct contrast to the west. In our affluent world we’ve never had more gadgets, we’ve never had more devices to make life easier and allow us to have more leisure time. The western reality is that as a society we’ve never been more unhappy. Why is it that with all the comforts of life the diagnoses of anxiety and depression have never been higher? What is missing in the western world that we’re lacking and what do the Indians have that makes them content? India is an amazing place and well worth a visit, for practitioners of yoga or those with a connection to spirit it’s an essential part of growth and development.

Is Uluru Magick Calling You?
I
n January 2020, the largest group of lightworkers will gather at the solar plexus chakra of the planet marking a rare cosmological event that makes Uluru the centre of a great transformation. The indigenous say this is a time to complete an activation ritual that commenced at creation time. Robert Coon, Earth Chakras author, says: “Uluru Kata Tjuta is the ritual centre for this activation… the solar umbilical cord allows higher frequencies of life to exist on Earth and stimulates further evolution.” The symphony of energies occurring in January are unlike any we have lived through in this lifetime. Barry Eaton, astrologer, says “The last time this [conjunct] occurred was in 1518 when the Protestant Revolution began – an amazing historical time. This will be as significant, a revolutionary time.” The Cosmic Consciousness Conference honours this important event. The planet’s most awakened will gather, sitting shoulder to shoulder and heart to heart for workshops, meditations, and amazing connections. Conference delegates often feel they were ‘called’ to be there. Indeed, the personal (and planetary) healing and transformation is profound.
Uluru generates electromagnetic energy we can tune in to, allowing for dynamic change. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be in the heart of powerful ascension energies. Kathryn Hand is the Co-organiser of The Cosmic Consciousness Conference at Uluru in January. See more at www.cosmicconsciousness.com.au G

FAVOURITE BOOKS Journey of Souls RRP $30.00 • Dr Michael Newton • Available @ Gnostic Forest
This book literally jumped off the shelf in a bookshop, and as I flicked it over and read the back cover, I knew I had to have it. At the time, there had never been such a prolific study of the afterlife. Dr Newton’s 7,000 case studies mapped the journey of our souls from death to birth. Reading the book had such a profound impact on me, I eventually gave up my corporate life and became a hypnotherapist. I now specialise in past life and Life Between Lives therapy and am a proud member of The Newton Institute, taking people on a journey of their own! – Kathryn Hand
You Can Heal Your Life RRP $29.95 • Louise L. Hay • Available @ Gnostic Forest
Reading You Can Heal Your Life actually did change my life - it taught me that I create my own reality, and gave me simple tools to help me along the way. But more than that, by following Louise’s processes I transformed from being frightened and unhappy to knowing that I was safe, powerful and infinitely loved. Every human should read this book! – Kate Leuenberger
The Celestine Prophecy RRP $20.00 • James Redfield • Available @ Gnostic Forest
In my mid 20s when I finally realised that I couldn’t ignore the fact that I’m an empath and a lightworker, The Celestine Prophecy had a huge impact on me. It confirmed experiences that I had had in my life, and helped explain the metaphysics, which made it all the more real for me. Some people give the book a hard time, saying that it’s badly written. To this I say ‘just enjoy the story for what it is’ and take from it the learnings, and the truths. – Shelley McConaghy G

You need to be thinking clearly during business transactions or creative projects. Integrity and traditional values play a huge role over the next 12 months involving your professional status and recognition. Maybe some concerns over legal issues. Facing the past that has haunted you, help to move you to areas that have blocked your heart. New opportunities arise as you maybe willing to take the chance to break out of normality. Romance, love and money is contagious attracting happiness and joy into relationships.
Cooperation is needed to work through joint efforts, pulling together making positive connections. Feeling confident and optimistic, life seems to be agreeing with your expectations as you work towards goals and have some fun on the way. Some may feel like the Earth is moving from under them. What was once stable seems to be changing, putting everything into a new perspective. Embrace the challenge. Reassess your path in relationships, seeking new experiences and focusing on your future.
Balancing your material life and spiritual world, seems to be balancing well as you work towards your future goals. Your mental activity that requires creative or intuitive work may include studies in, travel, Health, metaphysical studies, yoga, dance, music or art. Communicating with nature offers peace and tranquillity. Business deals, written projects, study and teaching are beneficial as you make the most of these energies. Being responsible and sensible you are reaping the benefits for past actions and the hard work you have produced.
