Tamra Oviatt The Sacred Activations Tamra Oviatt is the founder of Subconscious Metaprogramming Sacred Activations Healing Modality (SA). She was given the spiritual gift of Sacred Activations, a seventh plane modality that she received, quite by surprise from the Source Creator of All That Is, during an eight-month trek through the UK, Italy, and Spain in 2012. In this modality, she now works with many unseen ascended masters, angels, Lords, and light beings to help raise our vibrations to joy and love. She received her first Activation from Lord Metatron in Scotland's Rosslyn Chapel. She has always had the gift of Healing. While Tamra was led through many different training modalities, she was always told, "this is for your learning and not what you're supposed to do." During this time, she also experienced many of her own miracles.

Interview by Victor Fuhrman

As an energy worker, author, professional speaker, and teacher, Tamra trains advanced energy workers to use Sacred Activations in their own professional practice. Her work empowers others to align with their life purpose by clearing hundreds and thousands of cultural, religious, and collective consciousness belief systems. Being a uniquely gifted Lightworker, a Master Healer, and Galactic Channel, Tamra has always been destined to bring permanent Healing, personal growth, and positive transformation to people using the power of the Sacred Activations. She is now a sought-after Master Teacher of 12 transformative Sacred Activations and Akashic Records classes and a best-selling author of 9 books. She also hosts the weekly show, "Living in the Fifth Dimensional Consciousness," on OMTimes TV. Tamra's ultimate mission is to realize world peace by helping individuals unplug from the many negatives, self-defeating collective consciousness belief systems while plugging into the unconditional love of pure Source energy and the activation of the soul's presence. Victor Fuhrman: Tamra Oviatt, your path of discovery was somewhat unconventional. Please share with us your early life before you received your calling. Tamra Oviatt: I always knew things. At 18, I had a sick cat and took her to the doctor.

And she's one of those skinny cats. She was blown up like a football, and the doctor didn't know what was wrong with her. She was lethargic. I thought she was going to die. So, one night, I sat on my bed, put my hands on her, and heard "PRAY" for her. I did. And the following day, when I woke up, she looked like she was never sick. All the swelling was gone. She seemed totally normal, walking around normally. And it really freaked me out because I grew up very Christian, and only Jesus could heal. And so, I never really told anybody about that experience. Victor Fuhrman: Tell us what else happened that led up to what happened in Rosslyn Chapel. Tamra Oviatt: I recently divorced and was selling machine tools and CNC machines. I was doing well. I bought a house. I had a nanny for the kids. The kids had a car, and the nanny had a car. I was doing really well financially and having a lot of fun, but I kept hearing this isn't what you're supposed to be doing in my head. I kept hearing, "You're supposed to be a healer," and I heard it over and repeatedly. So, as a result, I finally said, okay, God, I'll follow...

So that was obviously a past life thing, but at that time, I had never discovered past lives. I wasn't interested in any psychic stuff. I wasn't into any of it. And so, one day, I was looking through a local magazine in the south bay, and it was a spiritual magazine, and there was a guy there that does readings charts.

So, I called him, and I had a reading done by him. He was interesting, and he taught hypnosis. So, I said I wanted to learn hypnosis. So, I went out to his house, and he hypnotized me. Then this bird showed up, who said he wasn't a bird at all. He called himself Charlie. And he was, it was really magical.

He was like this really colorful bird with rainbow colors. He wore sunglasses, right. He took me up over the planet. He said, "Come with me." He grabbed my arm, and I flew up in the air, and we were like sitting on this cloud, looking down at the earth, which was really like a ball. OMTimes.com

So, it looked like! It seemed like we were really high up. And Charlie told me, "Do you see this?" And I said, yes, he goes, do you see this? And I said yes. He said it's just a game, Tamra. That's all it is. Are you a winner, or are you a loser? And I went, well, let me see, I'm dyslexic and horrible at spelling, but I would love to win Scrabble. So, I love to win. That was my thought process that went on at the time. I learned hypnosis through him. And with my hypnosis script, I gave it to a friend and had her hypnotize me, so I could meet my spirit guide because I heard we have spirit guides. So, this being showed up, a Chinese human being showed up in this gown, this goatee, and this little hat, and he told me his name was Choung and that he was my guide. Right after that, I started teaching angel classes and how to talk to your angels, which was really interesting. So, I went into that and started teaching people how to talk to their angels. I was doing this in a store in Ventura. It was an angel store that was called "Things from Heaven."

The funny thing, and how this led up, was that the store owners worked with a friend of mine in commercials for a local TV station. And she was talking to him, and he said his spirit guide's name was Chung. And she says, that's funny, my friend's name, spirit guide's name is Chung. So, we met, and the next thing I knew, I was teaching angel classes there. So, I taught, um, angel classes. I did it in three different rounds of six-week courses. It was full of people, and I freaked out and changed my phone number. I pulled out; I had a yellow-page ad and everything at that time. And during that time, I was having a tough time paying my rent and, obviously, belief systems that healers can't make money or anything else. So, I had a lot of that going on. And one day, I walked on the beach, and I said, God, if you want me to be a healer, you have to pay my rent, and you have to do it now. Because I was five days late on my rent. And with that, it was like a $75 fee, which to me was just a lot of money.

So, within an hour of me yelling at God on the beach, one of my clients came to me with a check for $1,500 that paid my rent and bought my boys Christmas. At that time, my boys were young. So, um, I ended up going back into the workforce. I was selling sailboats and yachts for a while. That was a lot of fun. Just did different jobs. And then, I ended up doing online marketing, and during that time, I started doing various trainings. I mastered hypnotherapy and mastered NLP as well. I learned about theta healing, which was about when I was done with my job. I left, and I went and spent three months learning theta healing. And while I was there learning, I thought, okay, good. I'm going to become a teacher. This is what I'm going to do. All of this happened over a 10-year time. All of this was happening, and I kept hearing this, isn't what you're supposed to be doing. All of this was for my training. In 2011, I was talking to some guy in England, and I lived in California, and we started talking.

Then we started skyping together, and he wanted to marry me. He wanted me to move to England, and my life was falling apart. I had quit my job. I was trying to be a healer full-time and ended up going into foreclosure in my house. I couldn't get refinanced on the house, and I was in a mess. So, I thought, okay, well, maybe I'm supposed to go to England and marry this guy and start my business there because I had all these different certificates. So, I went over there, and I was just like, there's no way I'm marrying this guy. So, one morning, I went for a walk and yelled at God again. I walked through this graveyard and realized: "What the hell am I doing here?" I am here in England, and my whole life has fallen apart. What am I doing here because I'm not marrying him? And I heard: "Go to the Rosslyn Chapel." So, I went back to his house, and he was on the phone with a spiritual friend named Gaz, a really cool guy. I told him what I heard, and he said: "Oh, the Rosslyn Chapel is really amazing. It has this Stargate underneath it that it's been built on." And it's really incredible! So, I booked a B & B and a train for the next day.

And when I was doing that, I was told to call one of my clients that lived in Scotland to have her meet me at the church. She agreed. We met at the church two days later, and I was sitting in a pew, and I said, okay, God, I'm here. And I heard, go to the Akashic Records. So, I did. When I went into the Akashic records, a being was standing there. I'd never seen anybody in the Akashic records. So I would just go in there and get information, you know, and there's this being standing there, and I said, who are you? And what do you want? And he said he was Lord Metatron, and he was there to assist me. Victor Fuhrman: Let's talk a little bit about Rosslyn Chapel. There are so many wonderful elements to your experience. The chapel was featured in Dan Brown's book and the subsequent movie, the DaVinci Code. What did it feel like when you first saw and entered the Rosslyn Chapel? Tamra Oviatt: It was just absolutely beautiful. It was. It's really a stunning church. I would definitely recommend anybody to go visit that church. I've been back since, and it's just really beautiful.

Vitor Fuhrman: And what's the energy like in there? Tamra Oviatt: Really amazing! It's really incredible energy, depending on what time you're there. I prefer to go to places in the morning, before everybody comes in, and add all of their energy. I love to, um, go to sacred sites first thing in the morning. To me, it is the best time. Victor Fuhrman: Now, through your experience, what is your understanding of God as a Creator Source? Tamra Oviatt: Oh, that's really interesting, and such a question! It's all source energy. I call it God. I used to call it creator. When I was doing Theta healing, I called it creator. Victor Fuhrman: Absolutely. Timing has a lot to do with it because we have to have experience in time to recognize when the time is right. Tamra, one of your many wonderful books is entitled: " Heal yourself, heal the world." What inspired this book, and what message should readers take from it? OMTIMES | 2022

Tamra Oviatt: I got goosebumps when you said that because we are a collective consciousness, and when we heal ourselves, everyone around us starts healing.

Everybody starts changing, and everything around you starts changing. The world starts changing around you because you are the creator of your life. And everybody that shows up in your life is a mirror to you. There are many different roles for something you need to learn, overcome, or support. So, the only thing we truly have to do is work on ourselves, and then the world around us starts shifting. It's really incredible to watch how people treat you differently when you change yourself. Victor Fuhrman: And do each of us have the capacity for selfhealing? Tamra Oviatt: Of course, absolutely. Everybody has the capacity for self-healing. Absolutely! Victor Fuhrman: And how do we embrace that? Tamra Oviatt: Take some time out. Don't focus on the disease or the disorder or focus on the Healing and the health. Because you're talking to your body, your cells are listening to everything you say to yourself. So, if you're having an issue, imagine it being perfect. .

OMTimes November | 2022

See it being healthy, feel it, celebrate it, love it, love your body. Love yourself, honor yourself! Victor Fuhrman: That loving oneself and sensing one's self-worth. That's a real challenge for a lot of folks. Isn't it? Tamra Oviatt: It is. It was certainly a challenge for me. Victor Fuhrman: And how would we overcome that? Tamra Oviatt: Basically, Taking time for yourself. Seriously, take time for yourself. Go inside again, write, and listen to a song.

And, of course, I'm going to say, listen to the Sacred Activations. If you want to do it magically and easily, use the sacred activations. Because for it to be magically and easily done, it starts erasing all those belief systems for you. Still, you don't have to use sacred activations to do it. You can do it yourself. But you've got to focus and allow that stuff to stop repeating and start replacing it with positive thoughts. And, I say this to you, and it's so much easier said than done because, again, 95% of your life is run by your subconscious program. So do meditations, guided meditations, sacred activations, and things to change your subconscious programming. OMTIMES MAGAZINE

Because I've been to many events for a weekend where it's supposed to change your life when you're all excited, you're going to do all these things when you get home. And within a couple of days, you start falling into the same thing. I have changed things in my life through subconscious programming or through guided meditations, but with the Sacred Activations, what happened to me was that they started changing my life instantly and just kept shifting it and shifting it. But take time for yourself.

Go within. You have to meditate, do hypnosis, or use music to help you write. But You need to take time for yourself to do that. Victor Fuhrman: One of the things that I always share is to create healthy boundaries so that the word not once said with compassion is a complete sentence and that you don't have to be a people pleaser and chase after everyone else and neglect yourself at the same time. Tamra Oviatt: Absolutely. That's it. There's an activation for healthy boundaries.

Victor Fuhrman: How may we each recognize and embrace the power? We possess the to create our life and create heaven on earth and share those amazing gifts with others. Tamra Oviatt: Be kind, smile. We all have the power. I mean, we are creating everything that's happening now, aren't we? So, let's focus on peace, focus on love, focus on art, focus on music. And with you just doing that with your happiness inside, it affects everybody. That's how we create heaven on earth. That's how we do that. I've created heaven on earth for myself. I live in Yucatan, Mexico. I live on the beach, and I am happy. This is my heaven on earth right here. It took me a lot of work and a lot of time to do this, but it wasn't really something. It just all started magically falling into place. And, when you're working on yourself and focusing on creating beauty, within being happy, being happy for others, smiling at others. I mean, if you just smile at someone, you can make their whole day or the whole week, or you might have just helped somebody not commit suicide because you smiled at them. I constantly smile at people. I wear a t-shirt around. I'm always in a t-shirt that says: "I am living my best life." Yeah. Because I want to trigger that into people to create that for themselves.

OMTIMES.COM

We don't have to be enslaved. We can create anything we desire just by being excited and feeling good about it. It's so important to love yourself and love others. I do know it's easier to love others than it is for yourself. It takes time, but you can do it. Look in the mirror, and say, I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you until you can open your eyes, smile, and say, I love you. Yeah, to really embrace that energy and that love for yourself. It's so important. Victor Fuhrman: Absolutely. In one of his moving speeches, Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr said, be the piece you wish to see in the world. How do we embody this? Tamra Oviatt: Same thing! Its peace in the world is an inside job. You don't have to go in march. Do not plug into all the fear-based programming out there to keep you in separation and fear. There's so much fear out there. And it's important to purge all of that. Do not listen to any fear programs of what's happening because it's all division programming. All of It. Focus on good songs, good programming, and good TV. Go and watch a cooking show, a building show, or something that has no drama. Don't watch drama. We don't have to listen to drama songs, angry songs, or anything like that.

NOVEMBER 2022

Don't do not spend time down the rabbit hole of entertainment overload and fear because no matter what you think, you believe there's a fear-based program to help support you in it. And it's important to let go of all that goes into three days of silence. Oh my God. How empowering is that? That is so empowering to sit alone with no internet, no TV, and nothing for three days to sit in silence, you will learn so much about yourself, and you'll come out of that experience much healthier. Victor Fuhrman: If you can do it, do it in nature. Please tell us about your new show on OMTimes Media and TV. Tamra Oviatt: I'm so excited to be doing this on OMTimes. I saw a vision of me doing a TV show many eons ago.

NOVEMBER 2022

So, I'm doing it, and I chose OMTimes, which I'm really excited about. I love OMTimes, the energy they're bringing forward, and Christopher, and they're just really incredible beings. So, it's all about Healing. Every week I run activations for and with you. Um, I've had a lot of guests on. I will have fewer guests and more of me talking myself. Victor Fuhrman: Tamra, please tell us about your website and what we can find there.

NOVEMBER 2022

Tamra Oviatt: On my website, there are about 400 activations and many guided meditations. You would find that I also do practitioner training in Sacred activations. There are five different levels of training. I offer various courses at various levels. It starts with the level of Practitioner, The Master Practitioner, Medical, intuitive, Mastering the Master. I also offer a Course on Earth Mastery, where you will learn and work with the Lay Lines and the collective consciousness and its energy field. I am able to travel to different sacred sites remotely, do Healing there, and activate crystals on the planet. That's an amazing medical intuitive, absolutely incredible course. I also teach Akashic Records. I have five Akashic Records classes I teach. Initially, I wasn't planning on teaching Akashic Records. Still, I was told it was necessary and needed and that it helped the world heal and help people balance out to empower the Earth healers. So, I teach five of those, Akashic records, The masters in Akashic Records, where you're starting to do healings, on healing tables.

Then I've got the Galactic Level, where you're working with aliens' people off the planet. Then I have animals and heaven and hell, where we're taking you into the fourth dimension. The Fourth dimension is the heaven and hell energy field. So, we take you into that. It's really the same energy field. It's, it's your belief systems that put you in either one of those two scenarios. It's really empowering because it releases all those fears and teaches you about that level of consciousness. And also teaches you how not to end up at that level when you pass away, that you actually go beyond it. You're not stuck in that. In the rebirthing line for the planet, you can move beyond that. You don't have to do that. You don't have to reincarnate here. I've decided it's important for me to do this. But I'm always running activations at the end of every show to help you get out, at a minimum of three activations per week. So go, have a listen. I've got it. I do have some absolutely fascinating, incredible, amazing, gifted guests on.

And then also there's some of me sharing stories and helping you break through different areas of your life. And again, I'm always running energy for you to help reprogram your mind so that you can be the best you. Victor Fuhrman: Do you have links to your books on your website? Tamra Oviatt: I do have links to my books. Presently, all nine of them are on Amazon. I've got five more. That's supposed to be coming out very soon. I am expecting them to come out by the end of the year. Victor Fuhrman: No doubt, You're a prolific author. Tamra Oviatt: Well, in all reality, my books are my transcribed training. So, when you read my book, you'll learn about my training, and we're just reading my books, start working on yourself. And then, if you want, you can become a practitioner. But, still, I have a lot of webinars and stuff for people that aren't necessarily interested in becoming a Healing practitioner. I just want to help them to better and heal themselves.

ANCESTORS

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY KINDS OF SPIRIT ANCESTORS ARE WAITING TO HELP YOU EVERY DAY? By Sharon Anne Klingler

Our Ancestral Realms

Suppose like most people, you think that ancestors are only from your biological family. In that case, you're missing whole worlds – and even centuries – of guides and ancestors who can help you from the spirit world. Since the word ancestor literally means "one who has gone before," – many people have preceded you and want to help you in many different areas of your life. Of course, there are all your biological predecessors. Then there are those from your cultural lineage – the tribes and the territories of your long-ago histories. I call these your Landcestors. There are also your group forerunners in spirit who had belonged to the same clubs and organizations you embrace – everything from various churches to the Girl Scouts to the Free Masons and so on.

NOVEMBER 2022

OMTIMES.COM

So, be ready to embrace all the different ancestral guides approaching you. The more you work with them, the more you'll discover what a treasure trove they can be for you! Connecting to Your Ancestors Is as Easy as One, Two, or Three. Step One. Invite spirit to be with you. They probably already are, but when you send the invitation, it helps you embrace your intention to connect with spirit absolutely.

And, of course, there are your purpose ancestors who had pursued the same activities and purposes that you hold. So if you're writing a book; composing music; designing a building; or working on spiritual healing and psychic development, your purpose ancestors are with you and are always there to help. And finally, your ancestors who went before in one or more of your past lives. They also come to you to help you with your past life lessons, relationships, and karmic healing. They also allow you recognize your past life, homes, and towns when you stumble across them. That's probably happened to you before – when you've gone to a place you've never been, but suddenly you felt like you knew it somehow, but you didn't know how. NOVEMBER 2022

Step Two. Turn on your Right Brain. The biggest mistake people make when connecting to the spirit is expecting to sense them with their physical eyes and ears. Instead, experiencing your spirit ancestors happens through your Right Brain, the imaging side of the brain. Thinking, analyzing, measuring, and judging are activities of the left brain, the ego's domain. But imaging is how – and where – spirit communicates to you. When you ask a question, your spirit ancestors will drop an image, symbol, or an idea into your right brain, where imaging lies – often even before you finish the question. OMTIMES.COM

But because it happens in the part of the brain that holds the imagination, people feel like they're "only imagining it." It feels like your imagination because spirit uses your imaging. Just let it happen! Step Three. Trust everything you get absolutely. Trust is the coin of the realm in spirit communication. You will not allow anything to happen without it, so trust it all.

NOVEMBER 2022

MEET YOUR ANCESTORS IN MOMENTS Close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Feel yourself relax as you invite spirit to you now. As your invitation goes forth, your intention to know them grows stronger. And you sense more of them gather around you. Your ancestors help you turn on your right brain now with an image.

OMTIMES.COM

And you see or feel spirit handing you a book with blank pages. On one of those pages, spirit puts a word or a picture. Let yourself get a word or picture now, and trust it absolutely. Now think of any question you'd like to ask your ancestors. And see a page in that book with an image or symbol on it. What do you get? Even if you don't know what it means, trust it absolutely. Let yourself wrap that up and say thank you to all these ancestors, still feeling their loving embrace. Why Should We Work with Our Spirit Ancestors? Spirit can help us in so many ways. I once had a student who did this process and asked her ancestors if she should get a job or go to school. NOVEMBER 2022

When she opened the book from spirit, she saw a large letter U and the Empire State Building. So she took steps to go to NYU, and those were her first steps in a great career in law. Spirit can see around the bend of time a little better than we can. So, they can tell us about the trends and opportunities that are coming. We have worlds and centuries of ancestral guides who want to help, and all we have to do is open the door. After all, they are waiting!

You can find out more about all of your guides in the Ancestral Realms and how to speak with them in just moments in Sharon's new book from Hay House: Wisdom from the Ancestral Realms, Getting Psychic Help from Your Spirit Guides Every Day OMTIMES.COM
