https://www.facebook.com/psychiclifestyles https://twitter.com/PLifestyles Namaste and welcome to Psychic Lifestyles Magazine, the premier magazine for the metaphysicasl and spiritual community. We welcmoe all beliefs to read about the spirit world and how YOU can contact and strengthen your sixth sense. This summer we offer you a look at angels, how the Vikings believed in the After Life, How to Trigger Out of Body Experiences and much more! If you are in the metaphysical business you are always welcome to contribute something from your blog or something new to editor@ psychiclifestyles.com. Please send pictures too, as most of our pictures are purchased stock or free google images. Meanwhile don’t forget to tap into spirit! Here are five simple ways; 1) Acceptance A true connection with your spiritual energy cannot be forced. Your highest self is wise and uses time to guide you. Embrace time as an old friend designed to protect you from doing too much too fast – or from straying too far off course before it’s too late. It is more a matter of receiving than chasing after. 2) Meditate – Daily! Meditation helps to equip you with the innate ability to master a wider range of energy fields. It makes your mind and energy stronger and prevents you from getting sucked into other people’s negative energy – such as a draining and confrontational co-worker at work, for example. 3) Practice Yoga When I had to rebuild my body from a broken place – I studied all dynamics of fitness including martial arts, Pilates and advanced performance training. I strongly recommend that you practice yoga twice a week. 4) Laughing and Crying Both enable us to heal, purify and release blocks that would have otherwise lowered our vibration. This in turn makes it much easier for us to tap into a higher level of spiritual energy. 5) Consciously Practice Self-Love With every loving and nurturing thought you give yourself, the closer you are to the truth, as the endless stories, patterns and traps of your mind
EDITOR’s Notes Cris are never real. But the funny thing about illusions is that they are made to feel, seem, and look real enough that they are never questioned. All of the negative self-talk is a lie – so stop feeding off it today.

This time of year is such a special time, and as each day passes we seem to get caught up in the magic of summer.
This time of year is such a special time and as each day passes we seem to get caught up in the magic of summer. Many people never think about the things that happen during summer beyond what they plan for their own free time. There is so much to see and feel in the world of nature. Have you ever thought about if there actually are fairies? Summertime is when they tend to make themselves known. That glint or movement just on the edge of your peripheral vision, when you look, nothing is there. You brush it from your mind but what was it REALLY? You might want to get that curiosity out and look at it in a new way. If you have never tried to really get to know the little glints of magick and learn about the world of the fae. You can start with a few little tips. How can you interact with the Fairy Kingdom? Respect, kindness and generosity would be the words that spring to mind when trying to communicate with
the fairy kingdom. All members of the Fairy realm are suspicious and wary of humans. They long to help and interact with us, but because of the damage being done to their environment and the Earth in general, they tend to be naturally afraid. Here are some of my top tips for communicating and befriending Fairies in your local environment. I’m sharing them with you because they work • Be kind, generous and joyful in all that you do – even the most boring and mundane daily chores. Fairies are always watching humans and will feel more like helping and even appearing to you if your behavior is exemplary • Spend time outside in nature, in quiet meditation. There are particular times of the day – midnight, noon, dawn and dusk – when the veil between our worlds is at its most transparent. This is the easiest time to open up communication Summer Issue 2016 7
• They absolutely adore honey and little treats! If you have a garden with shrubs or trees, a little trickle of honey down the barks of these is much appreciated by them. I know from experience that the Fairy Kingdom have celebrations in particular on the night of the full moon and a little piece of cake and honey on a saucer is always gone the next morning! • Respect fairy space. That is, fairy mounds or fairy circles (please walk around, not through them), lone trees or shrubs which are not cultivated and stand out on their own (do not cut down or mutilate) and wild areas of nature – always ask their permission before weeding, clearing or cutting down growth • Cultivate plants, flowers and trees in your environment. If you don’t have a garden – no problem. Just keep fresh flowers and healthy plants around your home. There will be elementals attached to all of these and they will bring positive energy and happiness to your surroundings Bluebells attract Faeries to dance in your garden
• Do your bit for the environment. Recycle, use organic, natural products when possible, and do not mistreat the world around us. Favorite Plants and herb of the Fae Mistletoe, Foxglove, Jasmine, Primrose, Cowslip, Tulip, Straw, Strawberries, Dates, and Poinsettias. Apple - The bark of apple trees or the fruits themselves have the power to transport a true-hearted seeker to the Otherworld. Burn the bark as an offering to the Good Folk on Midsummer’s night. Also used in Faery love Bluebells - Said to attract Faeries to dance in your garden. Clover - A sacred Faery plant, clovers of all kinds will attract them. Lay seven grains of wheat on a four-leafed clover to see the Faery Elderberry - Used to make Faery wine, these berries can be burned on a fire to invite the Good Folk to a gathering. Make a homemade brew of Elderberry Wine and you are sure to have some thirsty visitors. It is said that if a human drinks the wine, she will be able to see the Faery. If a human should drink Elderberry wine from the same goblet as a Faery being, he will be able to see them forever after Elecampagne - Also known as Elfswort, this root can be scattered around the home to attract the Sidhe. It can be added to any Magick or spell to invoke Faery blessing.

Foxglove - The source of the modern heart drug Digitalis, Foxglove can have seriously dangerous results if taken internally. DO NOT INGEST! Instead, plant Foxglove near your front door to invite the Faery in. Put a dried sprig of Foxglove in a talisman to keep you surrounded in Faery light. Heather - Heather is said to ignite Faery passions and open portals between their world and our own
Lilac - The sweet scent is said to draw Sprites to your garden. Mistletoe - The most sacred herb of the Druids, Mistletoe is a Magickal activator. In Faery spells, use a dash of Mistletoe taken on Summer Solstice to empower your workings with Faery Magick. Peony - Peony seeds were once used to protect children from Faeries. A garland of the seeds were placed around the child’s neck to keep them safe from kidnapping. In this day and age, with faery contact so drastically diminished, I doubt that anyone would want to don this Faery banishing herb unless they were living smack dab in the middle of a circle of crazed Pillywiggins. Poppies - Said to invoke the Faery into your dreams. Primrose - When planted in a garden or hung dried on the front door, primroses will attract the company of Faeries. If you have them growing under your care, do not let them die! The Faery will be deeply offended by your carelessness. Roses - Roses attract the Faery to a garden. Their sweet scent will lure elemental spirits to take up residence close by. Roses can be used in Faery love spells. When performing the spell, sprinkle rose petals under your feet and dance softly upon them while asking the Faery for their blessing on your Magick. Thyme - Wearing thyme will increase your ability to see the Sidhe. Sprinkle it at the base of your door, and on window sills to invite the Faery to enter your home.

It is fun to create a special place for fairies to live right in your own yard. It is popular to create fairy gardens, but you have to instill the trust from them or they will never come to your garden. Fairies just have a hard time forming a special friendship with humans, but it can be done. Planting their favorite flowers and not bringing in things that offend them is so important. When they start coming around and you keep enticing and inviting them, you will have a summer of very special magick.

The Valkyrie takes the fallen warrior into the afterlife James Masters 10
Psychic Lifestyles
Vikings and the Afterlife The two realms in Norse mythology that were commonly associated with the religious practises of funerals and burials were Valhalla and Helheim.
The Vikings and their funeral and burial rituals were wholly affected by their pagan religion and beliefs. For a Viking their death would lead them into an afterlife and into one of the Vikings nine realms. It was this belief that led the Viking to take so much time on their funerals and burials trying their hardest to send their friends, family or fallen comrades to a successful afterlife. The two realms in Norse mythology that were commonly associated with the religious practises of funerals and burials were Valhalla and Helheim. Valhalla was a place for fallen warriors and in opposite contrast, Helheim was for Viking people who had died from what was considered a dishonourable death. To die in bed of sloth, or to die of old age was not considered brave in old Norse times. In Viking times if you died, they would typically send you on your way in one of two ways, cremation or inhumation. Summer Issue 2016
11
Cremation and inhumation There are typically two common ways to bury the dead, and the Vikings did practise both at some point. The first method, cremation is to burn the body at temperatures so hot that flesh and bone would turn to ash, the ash could then be scattered, buried or sailed out to sea. The second, inhumation was to bury the body in its current state under the ground, and then either place earth, dirt or stones on top of the body. The Vikings in the early years were almost entirely pagan in their beliefs and they would typically cremate their dead. Later as Christianity become more common it is believed the use of inhumation was more widely adopted. For the purpose of this article however we will focus primarily on the typical Viking practise, pre Christianity of cremating their dead. Cremation It was normal in Norse times to cremate the deceased body before a land or sea burial, a practise that had significant reach to their afterlife. By cremating their dead the Vikings believed the smoke would carry them to their rightful destination in the afterlife. Successful cremation in Viking times required a very hot fire, hot enough to burn flesh and bone to ash, and to achieve this a pyre was required. Funeral pyre The Vikings created and used pyres to cremate their dead. Without the intense heat caused by a pyre, a normal fire would likely not burn the body completely. This could leave parts of the body remaining and is of 12
Psychic Lifestyles
course not desirable. Therefore the Viking uses pyre to ensure their dead were successfully cremated. A pyre is easily described as a large volume of wood, or a construction of wood that the body is laid upon. The construction of such pyres could take hours to build, necessary to ensure the heat was located in such a way that the body would burn effectively. Burial When it comes to the burial, the Vikings would bury the ashes of their dead in graves or even under piles of rocks. Goods and belongings would be buried with the deceased, suitable to match their life. Viking graveyards were even common, with certain settlements and groups keeping all their dead in one location. There are even large stone ships structures in Scandinavia to allow the dead to sail even without a sea burial. Ship burial Another kind of burial was for the Vikings to sail their dead out to sea. The lore of this practise often involves the burning of the ship before the dead are cast out. However in practise its believed that this was not always the case, with many believing the body to be cremated before the ship was sailed. Either way it was common for the dead’s goods to travel with them out into the water. This type of burial was not common however, and was likely reserved for sea captains, noble Vikings and the very wealthy. In old Norse times boats would have taken months to construct and would not have been
wasted without valid cause or a suitable amount of status. Burial goods It was common for the Vikings to bury their dead with some of their goods or belongings. This was considered necessary for them to use in the afterlife, I mean what warrior would want to be without his trusty weapons, even if he were not to need them in the next life. A warrior could be buried with his shield or sword, and a craftsman might be buried with his tools. A Viking woman might find her cloth making equipment or cooking tools would follow her in the afterlife. Reaching the afterlife In Norse mythology it is believed and alluded too in many texts that the afterlife you reached would depend on how you lived your life. The Vikings believed that the brave warriors who fell in battle would reap the most reward in the afterlife. This belief in many ways freed the Vikings to walk into battle with no fear and this would be the goal for many Viking in death. If
you weren’t a warrior then of course you still had an opportunity for an afterlife as well. Valhalla Valhalla was the hall situated in Asgard the realm of the gods, and Odin’s home. It’s often reported that Valhalla was a place for only warriors to go to, if you fell in battle as a brave warrior then entry to Valhalla would be granted to you. Folkvangr Folkvangr was another place brave warriors could live in the afterlife. Folkvangr was a field ruled over by the Goddess Freya, and was an alternative location for warriors. Freya would be able to choose half of the dead warriors from battle to come and live in the afterlife in Folkvangr. Helgafjell Helgafjell was known as the ‘holy mountain’, and was widely thought of as a rather nice place to live out the afterlife. Helgafjell was somewhere you could go if you did not die in battle, but you would have had to have lived what
is considered a good life. Helheim Helheim was possibly the worst outcome for a Norse person in the afterlife. Helheim was cold and dark, ruled by the Goddess Hel, it was reserved for those Norse folk who died in a dishonourable way. This could be from laziness, old age, for example to die in your bed. In Viking times, dying in a brave way was definitely the most honourable. Celebrations Funeral celebrations occurred in old Norse society, but the Vikings would wait for seven days before celebration. This day would be marked with the drinking of ale, which signified the passing of any property from the deceased. After this celebration the heir would truly claim their inheritance. http://www.legendsandchronicles. com/

Ghost towns to visit this summer
Bodie California Towns populated with actual people are so overrated. Why elbow your way through crowded hotels and restaurants when you can stroll through eerie ruins and have the place all to yourself—except for maybe a few spirits?
T
he 19th century saw hundreds of resourcebased towns spring up across the American West, many of which died when the resources dried up. Others emptied out after natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes, never to be rebuilt. And while there are ghost towns all over the world (Japan’s Battleship Island was once the site of a vast coal mining facility; the diamond mining town of Kolmanskop, Namibia, was full of grand buildings 14
Psychic Lifestyles
before the desert started swallowing it up), the ghost towns of America have a special flavor. Here are 10 you can (safely) visit, as long as you don’t mind a few spooks. 1. BODIE, CALIFORNIA Founded during the Gold Rush by prospector W.S. Body, who discovered deposits of the precious metal in 1859 in nearby hills, Bodie is a ghost town preserved in a state of “arrested decay.” At its peak, this Wild West boomtown had a population of 10,000 people. Mining activities started to decline during the early 20th century, before shutting down completely by the 1940s. Today, Bodie (the spelling change apparently came from a painter’s mistake) is a State Historic Park, with
Dunton Hot Springs more than 100 deserted buildings. Interiors are left just as they were when it became a historical landmark in 1962, and while you can’t go inside the buildings, you can peer through the windows of the still-stocked stores to see products your grandparents might have used. But watch out: Legend has it that anyone who takes an artifact from the town will be visited by a curse—though that might just be a sly preservation strategy.
THURMOND, WEST VIRGINIA
Kennecott, Alaska
2. DUNTON HOT SPRINGS, COLORADO Want to rent an entire ghost town for a wedding or corporate retreat? You’re in luck. This former mining camp, whose population peaked at a few hundred people around 1905, once comprised about a mile of log structures along the West Dolores River. The mines were exhausted around 1918, when most people left the town, but two residents purchased the whole thing a few years later and began operating it as a cattle ranch. In the mid-20th century the place became a dude ranch for tourists, before being purchased by German investors in the 1990s and undergoing a major renovation. The new owners describe it as a “perfectly restored ghost town” where you can enjoy some rustic, old-fashioned ambiance alongside your meals, massages, and high-speed internet (but no cell phones, please).

Bannack State Park Montana 3. THURMOND, WEST VIRGINIA Back in the days when America ran on coal, Thurmond thrived as a classic Appalachian boomtown. Area coal fields brought in more revenue than anywhere else on the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway, and local bank accounts bulged. At its height, during the early decades of the 20th century, Thurmond boasted two hotels, two banks, restaurants, a movie theater, and plenty of stores. But when coal usage declined and diesel took over, the town slipped into a decline. At the last census, the population was listed at 5. Today the National Park Service owns much of Thurmond, and has been repairing and stabilizing the abandoned buildings; they restored the local train depot as a visitor center in the 1990s.

4. KENNECOTT, ALASKA The abandoned buildings of the Kennecott mining town are nestled in America’s biggest national park, Wrangell–St. Elias (at 13.2 million acres, it’s bigger than Switzerland). During its boom years at the beginning of the 20th century, the mine produced about $200 million worth of copper ore, and the town had its own hospital, school, and skating rink, among other structures. Declining profits forced the mine to close in the late 1930s, and it decayed for decades, until the National Park Service bought it in 1998. The park service is now stabilizing the buildings, and runs a visitors center in the old general store. 5. ST. ELMO, COLORADO Once home to almost 2000 people lured by the area’s gold and silver mines, St. Elmo was founded in 1880 but abandoned in the 1920s. Locals say the residents left on the last train out of town, and never came back. The place used to be home to dance halls, a school, hotels, and even a telegraph office, but is now mostly picturesque-looking dilapidated wooden structures. However, you can shop in the general store in the summer, rent ATVs, and stay in one local “semi-rustic” cabin.
6. BANNACK STATE PARK, MONTANA Bannack was named the first Territorial Capital of Montana in 1864, two years after a prospector named John White struck gold on Grasshopper Creek. (Bannack didn’t stay the capital for long, however—that title was transferred to Virginia City, Montana, shortly after gold was found there too.) Mining continued at Bannack in fits and starts until the 1930s, although the town wasn’t entirely abandoned until the 1950s. It’s now a well-maintained state park with more than 60 structures, many of which you can explore—a rare opportunity for a state-run ghost town. 7. RHYOLITE, NEVADA This town on the way to Death Valley was named for a local pinkish volcanic rock, but it was gold that drove its brief boom—and subsequent bust. Thousands flocked to Rhyolite after prospecting discoveries in the early 1900s, and no less than Charles M. Schwab invested in infrastructure that brought the town water, electricity, and the railroad. By 1907, locals even had an opera house. But local mines were quickly exhausted, and after the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 and the financial panic of 1907, most of the miners and their families decamped for greener (or golder) pastures. Rhyolite managed to stage a second act as a movie set for “Old West” pictures in the 1920s, and today there’s an outdoor

sculpture park, the Goldwell Open Air Museum, near the entrance to the town. 8. CAHAWBA, ALABAMA People once had big plans for Cahawba (also spelled Cahaba), Alabama’s first permanent capital, but its location on the confluence of two major rivers made it a major flood hazard. The town lost its capital status in 1826, but briefly rallied as a distribution point for cotton and the site of a prison for Union soldiers. After the Civil War, it became a popular community for freed slaves. But floods continued to bedevil the area, and by the early 20th century most of the buildings were abandoned. Today it’s Alabama’s best-known ghost town and an archeological site where visitors can see the abandoned streets, cemeteries, and other historic ruins. 9. GARNET, MONTANA About a thousand people called Garnet home around the turn of the last century, but by 1905 the gold was running out. A massive fire in 1912 didn’t help matters. Some of the population hung on until after World War 18
Psychic Lifestyles
II, but today the town is owned by the Bureau of Land Management, which works to stabilize the remaining two dozen buildings. The place is said to be Montana’s most intact ghost town. Earlier this year, the BLM issued a call for live-in summer volunteers, but were so flooded with applicants they had to stop taking inquiries almost immediately. 10. CALICO, CALIFORNIA Calico had a brief but shining heyday as a silver mining town in the 1880s and 1890s, with over 500 mines and $20 million of silver ore produced in 12 years. But when silver lost value in the 1890s, Calico lost its residents. In the 1950s, Walter Knott—of Knott’s Berry Farm fame—bought the town and restored many of the buildings to their 1880s glory. It’s now a major tourist attraction. In 2005, then-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger proclaimed it “California’s Silver Rush Ghost Town.” (Not to be outdone, Bodie, California was recognized as the state’s “Official Gold Rush Town.”) There’s a museum, a mine tour, a historic train tour, gold panning, and something called a “mystery shack,” which promises to amaze and confuse with its optical illusions.

The Ancient Art ofSmudging
T
he practice of smudging dates back to prehistoric times, and is still very much in use today worldwide for cleansing everything from dwellings to human spirits. However recent research has shed light on the popularity of this activity, revealing that burning certain plant matter actually clears harmful bacteria. All Western use of burning herbs and plants for
less conquered them.The scientific paper entitled “Medicinal Smokes” and published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology focuses a scientific lens on the practice, which is becoming more and more widely practiced, despite skepticism. It serves to play against the role that this activity has played in a culturally diverse range of religions and tribal beliefs.The research study looked into herbal and non-herbal
spiritual purposes aside, the activity rests firmly in the sensibilities of ancient cultures in that, historically, smudging was believed to put forth the spirits of various ‘allies’ to provide ease and balance to an individual or group.In this way, the practice was used to clear spiritual and emotional negativity that has built up in a body or a space.Of course, there are skeptics who belittle the practice as unscientific and akin to magic. The practice has a negative association to a form of cultural imperialism, where traditions of dwindling indigenous populations are co-opted by the descendants of those who more-or-
remedies that were administered by the burning of various matter.
20

The research included information from 50 countries over 5 continents and found that, predominantly, smoke administered medicinally is mostly used to aid lung, brain and skin function. In addition, it was revealed that passive fumes doubled as a sort of air purifier. The purpose of the study was to see whether or not these medicinal smoke deliveries could be explored by western medicine, because “The advantages of
smoke-based remedies are rapid delivery to the brain, more efficient absorption by the body and lower costs of production. A follow up paper published in the same periodical, “Medicinal smoke reduces airborne bacteria,” found that the research concluded that, in addition to health benefits, smudging was a powerful antiseptic “We have observed that 1 hour treatment of medicinal smoke emanated by burning wood and a mixture of odoriferous and medicinal herbs (havan sámagri=material used in oblation to fire all over India), on aerial bacterial population caused over 94% reduction of bacterial counts by 60 min and the ability of the smoke to purify or disinfect the air and to make the environment cleaner was maintained up to 24 hour in the closed room. Absence of pathogenic bacteria Corynebacterium urealyticum, Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens, Enterobacter aerogenes (Klebsiella mobilis), Kocuria rosea, Pseudomonas syringae pv. persicae, Staphylococcus lentus, and Xanthomonas campestris pv. tardicrescens in the open room even after 30 days is indicative of the bactericidal potential of the medicinal smoke treatment.
This has profound implications, as modern air quality in the developed and undeveloped world is atrocious, containing up to 1800 bacterial types, many of them pathogenic. With an increasing deadly array ofantibacterial-resistant strains, we’ll need all the help we can get. Conventional methods of sterilization often employ chemical cocktails that are typically much less effective than purported. Smudging seems to be an effective alternative, while also being natural and safe to use. In conclusion, the ancient practice of burning powerful herbal material may be much much more than just a primitive belief that we can simply disregard due to it being unscientific.Of course, this should not take away from the properties of smudging in the area of energy system and soul cleansing and in the power of aromatherapy.
We have demonstrated that using medicinal smoke it is possible to completely eliminate diverse plant and human pathogenic bacteria of the air within confined space.” In short, burning medicinal herbs cleared airborne bacterial populations by 94%, and the space was still found to be disinfected a day later. What’s more, a month after smudging, much of the pathogens originally found were still undetectable.

Become Pregnant with Creation Joy Rae Freeman
G
et Pregnant! What?
Yes, I’m serious . . women of all ages AND men. Get “pregnant” with the creation of your most sacred role in creating a better world. Provide fertile ground, sow the seeds, pull the weeds, nurture the ideas, protect the sprouting, acknowledge the cycle of growth and then harvest the beautiful bounty. Be open to new concepts for service, for unity, for being part of cocreating something amazing. 26
Psychic Lifestyles
Concept is the root word of conception. It’s not all that different from human being conception and pregnancy. There are essentials and there is a process. In all variations of the meaning creation is essential to every living thing. When you conceptualize something new - you are creating. Thoughts become things. After it’s created, then what? When a concept or idea presents itself - how do you feel? Is your spirit uplifted?
Is your heart filled with love and anticipation? Do you hold on to that and keep it alive? Do you feel ‘pregnant’ with the ideas, with the newness, the possibilities? Actually - ‘getting pregnant’ in the literal sense - is certainly not ruled out when it comes to providing a gift into the world and fulfillment for your own life. For humanity’s sake wouldn’t it be great if having children for karmic purposes - has been replaced with purposeful living, debt free
creation and higher dimensional existence? What are your gifts? What are your passions? What do you observe as a needed component in our unity of building a better world? As a soul having a human experience, as a spark of all that is and a part of ONE - are you not both a seed and an egg? Are you a fertile field? Free from toxins - alcohol, poisons, chemicals, GMO foods, stress . . negative emotions, self serving agendas? How about the seeds . . are they healthy seeds? Conscious and organic, integrated, clear, balanced? OR are these seeds of ego, greed, thoughtless disposability, unsustainability?
From where did the seeds come? How and with whom/what are they connected? What is the path to becoming the creator, to becoming pregnant with possibilities, to being ‘on fire’ with the gift of life and the passion of divine purpose? Where do we start? In most cases, the current schedule is too cluttered, too filled with responsibilities, too much like being a gerbil in a cage wheel. Necessarily - one of the first steps requires that we carve out time for us, time to self nurture, time for ‘no-thingness’.

Inuit Elders Issue Warning To World:
‘The Earth has Shifted’
T
he Inuits are indigenous people that inhabit the arctic regions of Canada, the United States and Greenland and throughout history their very lives have been dependent on being able to correctly forecast weather.... and they are warning NASA and the world that global warming isn’t the cause of what we are seeing with extreme weather, earthquakes and other events.
The elders all agree, they believe the Earth has shifted, wobbled or tilted to the North. In an article in The Big Wobble Almanac, and in a video, we see some of the extreme weather events being attributed to this “wobble.” In the article it states that NASA scientists and experts are “worried” by the information the Inuit Elders are providing for them.
The earth has shifted, tilted or as they put it, “wobbled” to the north and they all agree “Their sky has changed!” The elders maintain the Sun doesn’t rise where it used to, they have longer daylight to hunt and the Sun is higher than it used to be and warms up quicker than before. The elders who were interviewed across the north all said the same thing, their sky has changed. The stars the Sun and the Moon have all changed affecting the temperature, even affecting the way the wind blows, it is becoming increasingly hard to predict the weather, something that is a must on the Arctic.

Law of Attraction For the last few years, I have been studying the Law of Attraction in manifesting money and have found that the law of attraction does work. Learning how to apply these techniques have helped me be a believer which now I am going to pass on my success to you so you can you can be more abundant in life. Here are the three following steps to help you along your path: 1.When it comes to money, have a set money goal in mind. I am sure it be nice to make 1 million dollars, but realistically 1 million seems 34
Psychic Lifestyles
difficult to obtain in the beginning. Most of us will be discouraged when thinking in big sums of money. This is because we do not know how in the world to achieve these goals. Therefore, try to go in increments of what you are making now. For example, if you are only making $3,000/month, set a new goal of either $3500-$4000/month. Setting smaller money goals is much easier to believe in our mind. It doesn’t feel so far out of reach; therefore, we have more of a determination to try to reach our goals. Always try to start smaller in money goals because once you reach hit the goal then you can start
manifesting the next money goal in mind. 2. Have a Notebook ready and keep track of it. When you write about your money goals, write as if you already have this amount of money. You need to write about how you are going to manifest this money. Here are some sample questions to get you started: “What do you do with the money? Where does the money come from?? Are you getting a raise? Do you want a different job? Are you self-employed and trying to gain new clients?? Do you want to be debt free? How does it feel to have all
and whatever you wish for can be yours. Remember money is energy and the more positive we feel about our money goals, the more we will believe and the more we are willing to effort to achieve our money goals. Also try to write your money manifestations for at least 30 days and keep track of it. You will be surprised how much of it can manifest. Sometimes we don’t even notice how powerful our writing can be. The more you continue to write your manifestations, the more energy will be put into it, making you’re a money magnet.
this money? What do you plan to do with the money after you receive it? “ You can also set goals to achieve like paying off credit card debt and go as far as describing how it feels to be debt free. Try even setting a timing for paying debt off but be realistic about it. Obviously, it might be hard to pay your credit card debit in a month or two if you have huge credit card debit so again look at it in chunks and set a smaller goal. If you are doing credit card pay offs, I found that its more successful in writing that you can pay a credit card off by a certain time or write how it’s easy it is for you to make more than the minimum payment on your credit cards. As far as setting a timing to pay off a credit card bill, set a timing that is reasonable and feels easier to achieve. If you feel a good 6 months or 1 year or even 2 years is need to pay off your credit bills, then write exactly and be sure to add “or sooner “at the end of the statement. By adding “or sooner to your statement, it can help the energy move in a good direction. I have found when I do this that sometimes things happen a bit faster for me and that is a good thing! It gives more motivation for us to continue the writing. The thing is you are creating your own reality
3. If thinking negatively is a habit of yours, I would suggest you invest your time in listening to attract money subliminal messaging videos. These can be found on YouTube easily. I recommend a YouTube channel called Vortex Success. You will need headphones as its recommended. The best way to do use these videos is in conjunction to writing your manifestation. I recommend you listening to a subliminal message video while writing about your money manifestations. It keeps your focused on your goals and gives you more room to dream bigger about the possible goals you have for yourself when it comes to
attraction. With this combination, you will see even better results for yourself. It programs your mind to stay positive in the moment and over the course of time you will find you breaking your habit of thinking negativity and see more positive outlooks on your future money goals. As a result, you will also be able to attract more money into your life faster. Always stay positive and never give up on your money goals. The more you practice writing your money manifestations the more powerful you become in drawing more abundance into your life!

ave you ever been so frustrated with your weight that you want to wish it away? So many of us face that every day. If only we could wiggle out flab and have it disappear we would all be so happy. I don’t have answers for media magick, but, there are things we, as witches and magickal practitioners, can do to help give us a big lift. The first thing, in my opinion is having a positive outlook. If everything 36
Psychic Lifestyles
that comes out of our mouth are things like, “I just don’t feel good, I am tired, I am so big, I just don’t want anyone to see me….” And on and on with a million things we tell ourselves in our minds. I now that by replacing these downers with positive things like – “Today I am ok…today I can do something for myself and make myself feel good. I am going to put on my makeup and do something fun with my hair….” These are just
some things you can replace the negative thoughts with. Another thing that we can count on once we have started our journey to having a magickal weight loss is to bring some magick into our life. I love ritual and integrating spellcasting and intent with all I do. The one thing to always remember in doing spells… it is no different than what most people call prayer. It is sprinkled
with positive intent and mixed with the knowing that we are the key to all magick. It is within us and the key is believing. YES – Believing - in yourself and in the Universe to bring about anything you want. One thing you need to always remember is what you say in your mind is the same as you say out loud as far as the Universe is concerned. There is no difference …what goes out comes back to you. So guard your thoughts a much as what you say aloud. Do not scatter your energy by attempting to do more than one magickal working at a time. Remember that Magick is the manipulation of energy, a thought is a form of energy and a visualization is an even stronger form of energy. Your visualization can be a method used to intensify further and direct your will. Your visualization can be the method by which you control the magickal energy you have produced. You must know what you want. You must see it. You must feel the high energy flow. You must direct it. One of the most important elements in the practice of any form of Magick is the Universal Law of Cause and Effect. This means that whatever you do (or don’t do) you cause something to happen. Magick is actually just opening our eyes to the “Knowing” that all is available to us if we just have the right mindset and concentration Have you thought of how many “TYPES” of magick you can use? The possibilities are endless…For this, though, I want to tell you a little about one handy form: Vessel
magick. Many forms of magick use a vessel to hold the intention of the spell. The vessel is not only the tool, but the spirit of the spell. The colors, shapes and energies of these vessels have magickal properties that combine to empower the spell. Some of the vessels might just surprise you. Candles are popular as well as what some people refer to as “Witch Bottles” or witch balls. These are made by putting items in the vessel that make the spell more in tune with the intent you are working on. These can be herbs, colors, items representing the purpose and many other things, depending on your idea of success. By partnering your tools to the energies of your deities, elements, planets and signs you make the flow more easily powered so it is much easier for your intention to reach its purpose. Now remember when doing your magick...the more you put in it, the more powerful it will be, because you combine many energies to go out for the purpose in mind... one thing that is important is to never go into casting a spell wondering if it will work… You must KNOW it will work! “BELIEVE”. Because your doubt will show in the results. That is the main thing I wish to bring out is the fact that you must KNOW your magick will always work...how it works is up to you. The more you “Build your Confidence” the more successful you will be. Remember: You can always CHOOSE to be happy and positive. You do not have to choose to accept another’s negativity. If we do a spell for prosperity and then spend the rest of the day worrying about money, the spell is likely doomed
to fail. You must also remember that you can’t do a spell then not work toward it. If you do a dieting spell to bring health to you, but you go eat a double cheeseburger with all the toppings and extra-large fries, then have a big milkshake to top it off…and figure that since you believe your spell will work and you just do everything to help it NOT work…what do you think will happen…..failure…yep. So you have to work toward your goal and believe your intent will happen. If you are intent on working against yourself, you will end up sabotaging yourself into failure. So make sure you always keep in mind what your goal is and make sure your intent matches your actions. Magic is not complicated. It is natural and when you have the right mindset, you can do anything! Good luck and may the magick flow through you toward your goals.

The Trigger of Out of Body Experiences

Psychic Lifestyles
Robert Monroe’s Out-of-Body Experience Research Summer Issue 2016
41
Robert Monroe (1915-1995) Robert Monroe (1915-1995) was the pioneer in the investigation of out-of-body experiences (OBEs) and the author of the ground-breaking books entitled Journeys Out of the Body, Far Journeys and Ultimate Journey. Monroe had a large number of extensive out-of-body experiences into the astral realm -- an out-of-body state unbound by time or death. His testimony of OBE journeys have comforted millions of people who have had such paranormal experiences yet not fully understanding the phenomenon. His OBE journeys began spontaneously and without his will when Monroe would find himself leaving his physical body and traveling via a second body (the astral body) to locations far removed from any physical or spiritual reality he could comprehend. In the ensuing years, Monroe and his group of researchers began working on methods of inducing and controlling OBEs and other forms of consciousness in their laboratory. As an expert in radio technology and in creating patterns of effective sound, Monroe applied his expertise for their OBE research. Monroe as his group of researchers efforts began to produce significant results, and attracted International interest among people from all walks of life. In 1974, he founded The Monroe Institute and began conducting learning seminars in self-control of human consciousness. Three patents were issued to Monroe for the methods and techniques he developed; and the trademark, HEMI-SYNC, became known worldwide. In his book,Journeys Out of the Body, Monroe describes a technique for triggering out-of-body states. The following is a brief description of his technique: 42
Psychic Lifestyles
Robert Monroe’s Technique for Triggering Out-of-Body Experiences 1. First lie down in a darkened room in a relaxing position. 2. Loosen your clothing and remove all jewelry. 3. Enter into a very relaxing state and consciously tell yourself that you will remember everything that happens at this time. 4. Begin breathing through your half-open mouth. 5. Concentrate on an object. 6. When other images start to enter your mind, passively watch them. 7. Try to clear your mind and observe your field of vision through your closed eyes. 8. Do nothing more for a while. 9. Simply look through your closed eyelids at the blackness in
“ In 1958, without any apparent cause, I began to float out of my physical body. It was not voluntary; I was not attempting any mental feats. It was not during sleep, so I couldn’t dismiss it as simply a dream. front of you. 10. After a while, you may notice light patterns. 11. When these cease, a state of such relaxation will happen that you lose all awareness of the body. 12. You are almost in the state where your only source of stimulation will be your own thoughts. 13. It is this relaxed and refreshed condition where out-of-body journeys are triggered. 14. To leave your body, think of yourself getting lighter and of how nice it would be to float upwards. 15. With sufficient practice Monroe claims that a wide variety of experiences. There are a wide variety of psychic and spiritual states that can result from leaving the body consciously. The traveler can find him or herself in either formed states (those containing objects) or amorphous states (without a clearly defined shape) when leaving the body in this way. One type of conscious transition occurs when the traveler simply disconnects the inner spiritual self from the physical body, and moves out and away from the physical body consciously. This disconnection happens frequently in near-death experiences when a person near-death moves a short distance from the physical body and observes it. This method of slipping out of the body has little excitement associated with it except for any fear aroused in the individual who does not understand what is happening. Robert Monroe described his experience as follows: “In 1958, without any apparent cause, I began to float out of my physical body. It was not voluntary; I was not attempting any mental feats. It was not during sleep, so I couldn’t dismiss it as simply a dream. I had full, conscious awareness of what was happening, which of course only made it worse. I assumed it was some sort of hallucination caused by something dangerous
- a brain tumor, or impending mental illness. Or imminent death. “It occurred usually when I would lie down or relax for rest or preparatory to sleep - not every time but several times weekly. I would float up a few feet above my body before I became aware of what was happening. Terrified, I would struggle through the air and back into my physical body. Try as I might, I could not prevent it from recurring.” (Monroe, 2-3) The out-of-body traveler can also move directly into a visualized space that is very much like a dream environment while maintaining continuous awareness of his or her transition into this space. Although the experience involves being in a light sleep, some people have had a very similar experience while awake when the image perceived turns into a three-dimensional space via spiritual travel. Sometimes the OBE traveler’s transition to formed environments involves dynamic movement and the traveler will enter the environment flying above fields and cities, taking in vast panoramas. In many cases, the body image of the traveler is more or less identical to the physical body but this is not always the case. A common experience is for the traveler to become a point of consciousness or a unit of awareness with no sense of a body taking up space. Here travelers identify themselves as a pure observer - more like a disembodied set of ears and pair of eyes. Sight and hearing are the two senses that usually dominate during such spiritual travel. Moving consciously into amorphous states is more difficult to describe. These states are usually areas of intense experience where the dominant reality is that of light, sound, vibration, motion or emotion. Going from a waking state or semi-waking state into an amorphous state is usually the most dramatic kind of spiritual travel experience. In one type of amorphous transition, the traveler suddenly senses a powerful vibration or sound and is caught up in that energy. This is sometimes accompanied by a feeling of being drawn or propelled by this vibration at tremendous speed through a dark space. This experience seems very similar to the descriptions of the tunnel associated with near-death experiences. Numerous people who came very close to death (no heartbeat or respiration) have near-death experiences Summer Issue 2016
43
where they have described different types of sounds or vibrations which propelled them at seemingly great speed through a dark tunnel or corridor. Sometimes, there is a feeling of being catapulted out of the body. In these cases, the vibrations usually start at a low pitch and continue gaining in frequency and power until they become almost explosive in their intensity. In other cases, there is the feeling of the inner sounds or vibrations but not the experience of movement and acceleration. Often, such static experiences involve hearing spiritual music or sounds, and can be quite ecstatic. The above mentioned inner sounds, along with inner lights, can sometimes act as a means of transition between the waking state and some formed inner world. This transition involving inner light starts from a waking state, moves initially to an amorphous state of energy and movement, 44 Psychic Lifestyles
then to a formed state of stability. This stable state is usually a quasiphysical environment. Sounds occurring during the conscious transitions out of the body are usually very powerful and may result in the obliteration of the body perspective. Monroe discovered that the nerves which inform the person of their body’s weight, size and position in space, seems to largely quit functioning when this sound occurs. Some of the sounds occurring are of a spiritual or mystical nature rather than transitional sounds carrying the traveler to a different location. These higher spiritual sounds are of a heavenly nature and are ecstatic beyond description. They are aspects of the final destination of spiritual travel rather than a phenomenon involving travel to some other location. Some sounds a person may encounter include the sounds similar to a speeding train, a loud
buzzing, a flute, or sounds of nature like the roar of a waterfall. These sounds or vibrations are of such intensity that they seem to pass right through the body, overpowering the other senses. These are examples of the transition to ego-loss during spiritual travel where the person literally merges with the sound. This illustrates conscious transitions out of the body which may occur spontaneously. They may occur due to an accident or injury, or as a result of deliberate actions and intentions. The main lesson to be learned here is that there is no loss of consciousness during the transition between the waking state and the spiritual travel; and consciousness survives even after bodily death. “I now feel that my life is totally guided by God ... To me it was a case of total surrender and total freedom.” - Janet, near-death experiencer.

The Huldra
Of Scandinavian Folklore She is a member of a family of a very ancient beings that inhabit the forest, but remain hidden from humankind. In Scandinavian folklore, the huldra (Norwegian, derived from a root meaning “covered,” “hidden,” or “secret”) is a very elusive and seductive creature of the forest. The huld-rå being is a rå, which is a keeper or warden of a particular location or landform. The different species of rå are sometimes distinguished according to the different spheres of nature with which they were connected, such as skogsrå or huldra (forest), sjörå (freshwater) or havsrå (saltwater), and bergsrå (mountains). Both the male huldrekarl and female huldra are forest and mountain dwelling creatures that 48
Psychic Lifestyles
take the form of tall and very beautiful humans with long flowing hair. The female huldra is almost invariably described as being incredibly, seductively beautiful. Huldra are said to hallow bark backs, similar to a rotting tree trunk. The huldra is a stunningly beautiful, sometimes naked woman with long hair; though from behind she is hollow like an old tree trunk and has an animal’s tail. In Norway, she has a cow’s tail and in Sweden she may have that of a cow or a fox. Further in the north of Sweden, the tail can be entirely omitted in favor of her hollow or bark-covered back. One of her methods is to appear suddenly out of the rain and mist, friendly and enticing to the point that no man can resist her charm.
They lure them into the forest in order to secure her freedom or sometimes to suck the life out of a man. They may appear nude in their most basic form, or disguise themselves and hide among humans, masquerading as farm maidens. If a human manages to somehow see their back or tail, the spell is broken and the human is no longer susceptible to the huldra or huldrekarl’s seductive advances. Lore of huldra and huldrekarl tell of them using their beautiful appearance and seductive charm to lure young men and women back to their caves or subterranean homes where they may be kept a slaves, lovers, or worse – depending on the tale. Sometimes the humans are released, but are cursed with the
constant temptation to return to their captor. Other tales describe them getting married to humans, losing their tails, and becoming human themselves – but retaining their magic. Some huldra or huldrekarl are inherently deceptive and evil, but many respond to the treatment they receive. If treated kindly, they have been known to use their magic to help humans and solve their problems. If treated unkindly, they can be hateful and vengeful. Much like any other being in the world. Christian Norse say that if a huldra can manage to get married in a church, her tail falls off and she becomes human. However, it is also said that she can become very ugly. It is often said, that the young and beautiful Huldra is moody and dangerous, but when she becomes old and ugly that she also becomes gentle and caring to the man who made her Christian. The mountain huldra (bergsrå) are said to lure men down into endless cave systems that they wouldn’t be able to find their way out from. The bergsrå (Mountain Rå), Bergatrollet (Mountain Troll), or Bergakungen (Mountain King) are a mythical creature of the mountain, or Rå, in Norse mythology.
Tales of the Huldra One day, a boy in Tiveden went fishing, but he had no luck. Then he met a beautiful lady and she was so stunning that he felt he had to catch his breath. But, then he realized who she was because he could see a fox’s tail sticking out below the skirt. He knew that it was forbidden to comment on the tail to the lady of the
forest, so if it must be done, it must be done in the most polite manner. He bowed deeply and said with his softest voice, “Mi’lady, I see that your petticoat shows below your skirt”. The lady thanked him gracefully and hid her tail under her skirt, telling the boy to fish on the other side of the lake. That day, the boy had great luck with his fishing and he caught a fish every time he threw out the line. This was the huldra’s recognition of his politeness. However, there are tales of kind huldra and there are tales of huldra that are not so kind. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In some traditions, the huldra lures men into the forest to have sexual intercourse with her, rewarding those who satisfy her and often killing those who do not. The Norwegian huldra is a lot less bloodthirsty and may simply kidnap a man or lure him into the underworld. She sometimes steals human infants and replaces them with her own ugly huldrebarn (huldre children, a changeling). If betrayed, the huldra can punish a man severely. In one case from Sigdal, a huldra avenged her pride on a young braggart she had sworn to marry on the promise that he would not tell anybody of her. The boy instead bragged about his bride for a year and when they met again she beat him around the ears with her cow’s tail. He lost his hearing and his wits for the rest of his life. There is legend of the ‘hunder’s blessing’. Legend states the hulder has long been associated with hunting and that she might blow down the barrel of a huntsman’s rifle, causing it to never miss a shot thereafter. Summer Issue 2016

n some Pagan communities black magic is simply applied magic that is done in a negative manner. Traditionally, Black magic can include but is not limited to: ~Magical workings that impact free will of others ~Magic performed to bring about destruction or harm like with cursing or hexes. ~Magic invoking the spirit realm for a negative purpose ~Magical workings that are baneful and restrict or eliminate the actions of others. However, black magic doesn’t have the kind of power you may think. The only way you can give black magic any power is if you believe in it. The simple truth is there are only two forces in the universe, Negative and Positive forces, the co-exist. So it’s natural in the nature to create your reality with positive and negative thoughts. Turning negative energy around
If you feel you’ve been having an incredible amount of bad luck that goes beyond mere coincidence, chances are some of the negative vibrations around you may be causing you to feel that someone has cast some sort of spell on you. Or you may be feeling like the world is against you and you just don’t know where to turn or how to change your luck into something more positive and joyful. Here are a few steps to strengthen your soul and turn those negative energies into positive ones.
Arm yourself with a strong spirit The natural defenses that ward off any bad vibes or black magic are within you. You always have the power. There is no outside power that can throw you into the pits of hell or despair. Thoughts do that. If you feel others are against you, or are being attacked, there are ways to protect yourself from that as well. The best way to protect yourself is through meditation.
Believe it or not this is your greatest defense against any bad thought that may come your way from another direction. Meditation is actually prevention against black magic or negative energy. It is also important that you regularly cleanse your aura and protect your chakras (your body’s major energy vortexes). Cleansing your aura requires visualization. Where you visualize each chakra and sparkle it up in your mind. You can do this by seeing a psychic healer, or by learning to do it yourself. Either way, consider it part of your regular “maintenance” routine.
Salt Salt is a mineral of the earth that has long been hailed for its cleansing and purifying properties. Just like it can slow down bacteria from rotting your food or pickle your vegetables to protect them from rot, salt can also make an effective barrier against black magic. In some fantasy movies you find people making a circle of Summer Issue 2016
55
salt around themselves for protection. While this is certainly effective, it’s just not practical unless you plan to spend your days sitting in that circle. The good news is that salt doesn’t have to be in the form of a circle to protect you—you can sprinkle it around the entire perimeter of your home and it will have the same effect. Any time you are home, you’ll know you’re safe.
Get an Amulet
Amulets are protective objects that you can carry with you. While you have them in your possession, they can repel black magic and malevolent beings. Some possible amulets to consider include religious medals, religious symbols, crystals or herb pouches. There are too many different types of amulets here to mention, but the important thing is that you believe in its power.
Laugh It Off
Black magic is no joke, but sometimes you have to treat it like one. Magic is energy, and so is joy and laughter. They are opposing energies; when they clash, the one can neutralize the other. Granted this does not work with all black magic, but if you feel the effects of something you suspect may be black magic it is worth a try. Have a good laugh at the expense of the spell and 56
Psychic Lifestyles
spell caster. It might dispel your problem right then and there.
Mirror Spells
When all else fails, a mirror spell turns black magic back towards the caster. Mirror magic involves leaving a black candle lit in front of a mirror all night long in your room. Black absorbs energy, particularly negative energy. The mirror will redirect the residuals back from whence they came. One important thing is not to look at your own reflection in the mirror while the candle is burning—so face it toward a wall or corner that people don’t usually walk by. Blow out the candle and bury the remnants, then put the mirror away until you can cleanse it with salt water or sage incense. The only real difference between black magic and white magic is intent—it’s the same kind of magic, but white magic is accomplished with the intent to do good things and help others. Black magic is aimed at someone for the sole purpose of doing harm. No matter what the intent, magic is energy sent to you with a purpose behind it. If you’re worried that purpose is anything less than friendly, you need to stop it in its tracks.
Don’t miss this fabulous documentary on Gaia.com Madame Blavatsky is considered by many to be a spiritual genius and her remarkable synthesis of western occultism and eastern traditions became a foundation for the New Age. The life she lived was no less remarkable. It is said that she left her husband to become a trick rider in the circus. Then traveling alone, she entered forbidden Tibet. This is where she gained her respect for eastern culture and religion which became the basis of her
teachings. Her detractors say that she was a fraud whose one real talent was that she knew how to tell a good tale. Was she a spiritual genius, or a fraud? Directed by: Donna Zuckerbrot Video Language: English - See more at: http: http://bit. ly/1OawrGc

This is where I want to write everything from I need to go to the store for food or I need to write a new blog. Then at night I go throw that and I circle that I plan to do tomorrow and mark them off the captor list and then put them on my to do list by category. Like going to the store and washing dishes is for home life. I also put deadlines to thing. If the deadline passed well then it was not important. The second thing I do is look at my rituals and started question what was really need? We all have them, ritual like we get up we shower and we move forward to dinner over and over same ritual every day. I started looking at them ritual and started question how do I change them to make more positive and focused being in that know that you have a choice in this. A week later I collapsed and was in the hospital for a week and then a month of bed rest. i was going nuts. That is when I begin reading and making choice in my life. Not because this was my stopping point. Not because I had over done it a little. But because that week in the hospital showed me the world would not end if I was not there to handle it the client just rebooked the class I was taking when was still there waiting for me to pick back up the house while yes it need clean well did not blow up or explode the husband was still breathing and had not ran when the three ring cirrus stopped.

How to Contact
Archangels I
LOVE the Archangels! They are one of the most powerful beings next to God the Creator and it’s so easy to work with them when you have a problem and need help. All You have to do is call on them and they are at your side in seconds. One thing about Archangels is that they just do not intervene in helping you with what is bothering you. You MUST ask them to come and help you and invite them in. It’s very easy to talk to them. You can think of the Archangel you would like to contact and just ask for the help you need but you must be respectful with a please and a thank you at the end of your request. You can communicate with them through thoughts, spoken words, and even through writing. You can make it as simple or as complex as you wish. You do NOT have to be in a meditative state of mind to talk to your Archangel of choice. Here is a list of the Archangels that I personally work with along with what they do how you can contact them:
Michael ~ His name means “Who is like God” Known as the Summer Issue 2016
63
Chamuel ~ His name means “He Who Sees
God” People sometimes ask for Chamuel’s help to: discover more about God’s love, find inner peace resolve conflicts with others, forgive people who have hurt or offended them, find and nurture and reach out to serve people in turmoil who need help to find peace. Chamuel is often depicted with a heart that represents love, since he focuses on peaceful relationships. He’s about love, mercy, adoration, compassion, gratitude, soulmates and your life purpose. Archangel Chamuel is of the Pink light and is surrounded by pink rays. “Archangel Chamuel of the Pink Ray, I ask you to please be in front of me now, shining your pink light upon me and filling me with love and forgiveness. Please help me to forgive others and for others to forgive me. Please strengthen my relationship and make it whole again. Archangel Chamuel I need your help with ….Name Situation. Thank you Chamuel and I love thee.”
Raphael ~ His name means “The Healer” “The
Prince of Light and Protection We can ask Archangel Michael to help us control and overcome the negative tendencies that still exist in our being. Anytime we feel overwhelmed by events, or when life situations seem to develop relentlessly, he can help us have a more elevated, more spiritual and wiser view upon our life. His mission is to guide and protect us from injustice and to help us open our beings towards what is eternal and immortal. We can ask him to help us in any situation when we feel overwhelmed or alone and we need help. He is surrounded by blue rays of light and radiates heat. He is one of the largest archangels and is in command of all the light workers. “Archangel Michael I ask that you come to me and help me. Please be at my right hand side today and shine your blue rays of light into my heart and soul clearing out all negative thoughts, feelings, energies, and people and fill me with courage, wisdom, love and justice. I call upon you to help me with………..name situation . Archangel Michael I love thee, and I invoke thee. Thank you.”

Medicine of God” Archangel Raphael is the most emotional and compassionate of the Archangels and his sympathies lay with those that are mentally, physically, emotionally not well due to any circumstances that happens on the earth. He also helps in healing the earth itself and brings peace to those who ask. He is about truth, Healing of the Body, Mind, and the Soul, Inspiration, and material needs. Yes, he can heal troubled relationships and you may ask in someone else’s behalf for him to intervene. Archangel Raphael has helped me tremendously with peace and calmness and really puts things into perspective.

He is surrounded by an emerald green light and all you have to do is ask him to shine it upon you and he will. “Archangel Raphael, Please come to my aid and shine your green emerald light through the bottoms of my feet throughout my body and out the top of my head, encasing me in your green rays of light. I need you so much to help me mentally, physically, and emotionally. I need help from you to be able to see things in a much more calmer light. Archangel Raphael please help me with….name situation.

Remote Viewing For Beginners
by Michael Jura
Remote viewing (RV) is the practice of seeking impressions about a distant or unseen target using subjective means, in particular, extrasensory perception (ESP) or “sensing with mind�. 66
Psychic Lifestyles
The difference of remote viewing to other psychic abilities is that anyone can learn to do it. Study results show that many individuals who were non-psychic have learned this ability. They have been tutored how to enter a sufficient trance-like state and were able to perform remote viewing with a high level of accuracy.
Here are some simple remote viewing training techniques you can try on your own:
I
just came across a great article with some helpful tips and steps for you beginners out there. Thanks to Stephanie Norsworthy for this piece, reprinted here in full for your convenience.
Remote Viewing Training – A Beginners Overview The psychic ability which pertains to the ability to view people, objects and places is know as remote viewing. This ability is not in the range of our five senses. Without the ability to remote reviewing you would not be able to view these things. Your psychic ability can be trained to view these things without your need to be within sight of it. Don’t mistake remote viewing training as being the same as an out-of-body experience. Astral travel, or out-of-body experience, is where you travel incorporeally in spirit form to view a place or an event. Considered a form of psychic dowsing, remote viewing is using your psychic powers to find anything you want to find. An individual who has taken remote viewing training and is looking to find something uses a form of ESP. A latent form of psychic ability is found in all humans and has never been fully developed while we are young. Consider, most humans use only about ten percent of their brains capacity and the other ninety percent is dormant, untapped and untrained and we are not quite sure how to use it. Imagine the possibilities. You could reach out to your children and see that they are safe, even in public places. The peace of mind and the security that comes with the ability to remote viewing and all the benefits, priceless.
1. Sit comfortably in a quiet place and close your eyes. You should be sure there are no distractions before you begin. 2. Relax. Breathing deeply through your nose. By pressing your tongue to the roof of your mouth you will find it easier to breath. You will also find that the tendency to yawn will be curbed while practicing this phase. 3. A key factor, in your success, will be belief in your remote viewing. While you fall deeper into your state of relaxation, you need to believe in your capabilities of focusing on events, people or places you’ve not physically seen. 4. Your remote viewing training can begin with you choosing a simple target to show your mind that you are capable of achieving this kind of psychic seeking. Perhaps begin by viewing yourself from a place in front of you, as though you were looking back at your relaxed body as you sit there through a mirror. It can be a little difficult at first to allow your mind to view yourself from an opposite perspective, but be patient. When you do see yourself from the angle that others see you, you’ll be in for a wonderful surprise. 5. Once the needed mental control has been mastered so that you can view yourself from a remote viewing, cast your remote viewing eye wider. Observe a familiar location. Perhaps a family member or parents home. This will suffice during the training of your mind. Notice things out of place. Small things. Things like a magazine on a table, dishes on the sink in the kitchen. This reinforces what you have seen and is important and will show you what the mind is capable of achieving. It’s possible to adjust the training exercises of remote Summer Issue 2016

viewing to add two to your training program. This will enable you to get feedback and results much faster. Have a friend sit in another place instead of viewing people you want to see. Have this friend repeat simple movements like pulling hair or waving with their hand. Through remote viewing try to see if you can perceive what movement your friend is repeating and compare notes for results. You may find that it is both quicker and easier to fall into a relaxed state once you have been spending time practicing your remote viewing training techniques. This is a similar state of relaxation to the trance-like state of relaxation reached under hypnosis. While still conscious of what is going on, the body relaxes enough to access the subconscious mind. Our psychic abilities are much more easily accessible via the sub-conscious, so the more you practice your remote viewing training techniques, the better you’ll become.

Grandma’s Hot Toddy Recipe The secret to this hot toddy and home remedy for chest congestion is that these ingredients have to be heated to slow boil, on the stove in a saucepan, not in the microwave. Bringing honey and lemon to a boil changes its chemistry and instead of being a food it turns into homeopathic medicine. Squeeze the juice from 2 lemons and put into a saucepan (fresh lemons, not lemon juice from a bottle). Add ¼ cup of honey to saucepan, bring to a boil Set boiled honey and lemon aside and let cool for a few minutes. Add a generous shot of rum Let everything cool until it’s just warm. You can take this mixture a tablespoon at a time as needed or you can mix it with a hot cup of tea. You can also mix the honey and lemon with a shot of whisky, either way it’s a tasty home remedy for chest congestion.

Many confuse surrendering with giving your power away. Anita believes that giving our power away weakens us, whereas surrendering empowers us. This is because when we give our power away, we allow
others to control us, but in surrendering, we allow the power of the universe to work through us. One of the dangers of not knowing the difference is that we can become prone to giving our power away to others who disempower us, such as cult leaders, while believing we are surrendering. During this hour, Anita will explain how to surrender, without giving our power away.

Aries — March 21-April 19: Mars, your ruling planet, is still having a fine time in retrograde which may have had you feeling a bit low on energy lately. You may also feel as if the answers you are seeking are just out of your reach. Mars, is not particularly known for its patience nor is Aries so June continues to be a bit of a learning curve for you when it comes to not pushing forward with what you want, and learning to sit back for a bit and see what happens. The month starts out with the moon in your sign which may have you thinking you can push ahead with your own agenda. You may wish to give some thought to this idea. The moon is in your relationship area from the 13th to the 15th a time which will perhaps give you some respite from the stresses you may have been experiencing in your love life. Taurus — April 20-May 20: At the end of the month, and I do mean the very end of the month, Mars will turn direct. This will no doubt have you breathing a sigh of relief as it will spend all of June in your relationship area. Your love life may be in a bit of upheaval from this especially if you decided to open conversations which had no right to be opened and found yourself still arguing long past the time you knew it was time to be quiet. Some words of wisdom, do not go there this month. You should already know from last months’ experience with Mars retrograde that sometimes when you open your mouth what you really wished to say doesn’t come out as you heard it silently in your mind. If it all gets too much for you try some physical activity to release your pent up emotions.
Gemini — May 21-June 21: Venus is in your sign for the first half of this month breathing a breath of fresh air into you love life. If it weren’t for Mars and Saturn still being retrograde you’d be excused for thinking that your luck were changing. However, with these two planets still causing havoc in your life you are best to keep a low profile. I know this is difficult for Gemini being the vivacious, charming people that you are and some respite will come soon. Mercury, your ruling planet, has turned direct in June and by the 13th it is in your own sign. This can give you a sense of feeling at home again and your thought processes will become a lot smoother and clearer. Just what you need I hear you think but you still need to keep up some patience before speaking out and perhaps ending up with your foot in your mouth.
Cancer — June 22-July 23: Retrograding Mars may have had you feeling a bit held back lately especially as it is in a part of your chart that usually stands for fun and creativity. As June is the last month Mars is retrograde you don’t have long to go to possibly use this transit to your advantage. Mars may be frustrating, moody and inconsistent when it is retrograde but it sure is good for one thing and that is planning your next move. Just as long as you don’t put your plan into action this month you can use it to lay down the groundwork for something exciting you may wish to bring into your life. Themes to look out for are creativity, fun, play and generally keeping yourself at the centre of your attention. Venus is in your sign from the 18th which can help you to get in touch with your emotions so you may find that using your feelings to facilitate your wants is the best approach to take Summer Issue 2016
75
Leo — July 24-August 23: With Venus in your area of friends and friendships early in the month alongside Mercury you’d be well advised to accept all those social invitations that come your way and just see what happens. Venus rules romance so a friendship may turn into something more. After the 17th it is time for you to lose yourself in your creativity. Meditation, artistic and creative pursuits will be easier for you at this time. Mars is retrograde in your area of home and family during June which could cause a bit of discord and a few arguments. With Jupiter now direct you might like to start looking at your finances. It’s a good time to study them but perhaps wait till next month to take action where it is needed. The moon is in your relationship area from the 23rd to 25th which is also the time Venus moves into a far more romantic area of your chart.
Virgo — August 24-September 22: Jupiter is now direct in your sign which has hopefully helped you to see what you need to do next. The moon’s node is also conjunct Jupiter for the entire month of June. This is a lucky aspect to have. It can bring something into your life that you did not expect or it can help you achieve that which you thought not possible. Whatever it is, there will be a sense of fate about what happens so don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, rather, grab it with both hands and run with it. After the 14th, Neptune turns retrograde in your relationship area. Make sure you have taken care of anything that was bothering you with your love life before that time. The last thing you need is the confusing nature of Neptune messing with any of your well laid plans. Libra — September 23-October 22: Jupiter is now direct in your area of spirituality which may have you spreading your creativity wings and delving deep into your psyche. Mercury is also in a position to help you with this until the 13th when it then moves into Gemini forming a trine to your sign. This will be good for communication, clear thinking and learning. Any conversations you were thinking to have wait until after the 13th. Romance may also be on your mind with Venus forming a trine to your sign as well up until the 18th. This should make for a pleasant month for Librans. Given that Venus is also in an area of your chart that speaks of adventure and fun you may be spreading your wings in more than just the creativity aspect of your personality.
Scorpio — October 23-November 22: Scorpios have a lot to contend with this month as Mars, your co rule, continues its retrograde in your sign. This can have the effect of heaping upon you a whole lot of frustrations and setbacks. It’s also a great time to plan so with that in mind you might like to just take some “time out” to yourself this month and do all those things you have been putting off. As long as you don’t act too quickly and take your time you should be ok. Venus’ move in to Cancer on the 18th brings with it a breath of fresh air to your love life and it trines your sign. With Jupiter also in a great position to bring friendships back into balance you won’t have to worry too much about your social life this month. The moon in your relationship area on 2nd, 3rd and 30th will also go a long way to help your love life.

Sagittarius — November 23-December 20: Mid-month is what you have to watch for in June. As Mercury enters your relationship area and Venus leaves it you have a small window of opportunity to set your love life to rights in a way that leaves both of you feeling like winners. The dates are 13th to 18th so use them well. The beginning of the month sees Venus in your relationship area and after the ravages of Mars retrograde from May this is a time to smooth over anything that has been going wrong for you. You will need this time too as Mars will be travelling through your sign again in August, coming into close contact with Saturn. You do not wish to enter August with anything bothering you when you could have fixed it earlier. May is the month to take care of things. Use it well.
Capricorn — December 21-January 20: With Mars retrograde in your friendship sector you may be excused this month in finding it difficult in working out who your friends really are. The saying “keep your friends close and your enemies closer” may be ringing a little too true. However, come June 30, as Mars turns direct, you can look forward to patching up any misunderstandings which have come to past. You may not be out of the woods quickly with this but you will be on the path to mending a few fences. Venus will be in your love area after the 18th breathing in new life to pick up your relationship and hopefully put it on a clearer path. With Saturn, your ruler, still retrograde in an area of your chart which is anything but clear you may be feeling a bit frustrated this month. No quick decisions for you! Aquarius — January 21-February 19: June begins with Venus trining your sun sign which is good news for your love life. It’s probably just as well too as Mars, over in your career sector, has probably been causing you a few problems with work. Feel like you can’t get anything done? Things not working out for you in the work place? Blame it on Mars and instead shift your attention to your love life! If you’ve tried everything to get the work issues to resolve and nothing is happening then you might as well concentrate on something in your life that is. When that something is your love and relationship then it will be a huge plus to your partner and can also make up for any times you have not been there for them. The moon is in your relationship area on the 8th, 9th and 10th which is pretty perfect really as this will only heighten your love life even more. Pisces — February 20-March 20: For those of you born in the mid Pisces dates this month could be very interesting. Jupiter, which is now direct, will come into close contact with the moon’s node for the duration of the month. There may be something quite karmic in your interactions. It certainly shouldn’t be a boring month and indeed it should be quite exciting. Venus will trine you sun sign after the 18th also bringing with it a very nice feel good factor and boosting your love life no end. Your ruler, Neptune, is still in Pisces and turning retrograde after the 14th. Take note to any insights you have this month. It may not be the time to act on them as Mars is still retrograde but you never know what is around the corner for you. June is the month to watch for Pisceans as it heralds the start of changes for you.
