The Secret of Enduring Love

The turbulent journey to

Self - Love

Reasons Positive Emotions are good for your Heart 1

Hello Love, I always like to wait until the entire magazine is put together to write this little note to you. Last night in my dreams I was brought to a place where I was shown the earth and told about the heavy energy we elected to come into. We elected to come here not to join in the energy, but to do our best to uplift it. The funny thing is once you are here the energy is so heavy it is easy to become part of it. We are doing our best. The great news is we together are uplifting it, can you feel it? Thank you for taking this journey with us, we are in exciting times! Blessings & Love, Rebecca Lee Allen

The secrets to clear skin One of the persisting skin problems that have been giving women tough days in recent time is that of Acne. One tiny zit at the wrong moment can spoil that look you had been craving for months or that big night you had been planning for days. Dermatologists have pointed out that the most probably causes of acne being stress and an improper diet. The most gruesome problem with acne is not only their appearance but their disappearance as well, which leaves behind ugly marks and may be accompanied with skin break outs and wrinkles.

crack them gently separating the yolk from the white. Once separated beat the yolk evenly and consistently, mostly by using a grinder or a blender, till a consistent paste is formed. Apply it evenly on the skin and leave it for 15-20 minutes, once dry, rinse it off and pat dry.

Honey and Milk Mask

Thus here we come up with 5 Home Remedies used to treat acne:

The White Toothpaste Okay, now we are sure that you knew toothpaste were good for your teeth, but here we tell you that they can make your zits disappear overnight. All that needs to be done, is applying a thin layer of any toothpaste, just make sure it is not gel based over your acne. The fluidity of the paste used should be consistent and even so as to enable the acne to cool out and not clog the pores even more. Leave it overnight and rinse of in the morning with cold water and you are sure to get the best results.

The Egg White So, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not only the white toothpaste but even the egg white, that can help cure your acne problem. Take 2-3 eggs,

The wonders of Milk and Honey as skin care products are not alien to many women, and thanks to their anti-bacterial properties and anti-oxidants, the mask we are suggesting not only wears out acneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s but also acts as anti-wrinkle and anti-aging agents. Mix 2 tablespoon of honey with sufficient quantities of milk so as to form a gooey paste, not too runny, and apply it evenly on the skin. Leave the mask on for 15-20 mins and wash off with cold water. Honey may leave the skin a bit dry, so do not forget to moisturize your face after the process.

Citric Lemons Yellow lemons are known for its high acidic

contents inclusive of citrus and anti-oxidants, which not heals your acne but because of its anti-aging, exfoliating and anti-wrinkle properties can give you that healthier and glowing skin. It is suggested to use lemon on the acne prone areas and keep it for a maximum of 4-5 minutes, since the acidic content may cause side-effects on sensitive skin. Further, try to use this remedy when in all probability you are not going out in the sun for the next 3-4 hours.

The Pimple free Papaya Last but not the least, one of the essential ingredient that you can spot out in the contents of all major skincare products is papaya which owing to its content of papain is known as an antiinflammatory agent which removes excess lipids and dead skin cells thus unclogging the pores. Cut a papaya, into small portions, and rub it over the acne prone areas. Leave the juice on for 15-20 mins, finally rinsing it off to get that perfect radiance. To conclude, it is important to note, that the skin care regime suggested would just help you heal the acnes but to prevent them from coming in the first place, be sure to drink loads of water, follow a proper cleansing-toning and moisturizing routine and lastly eat healthy.

5 Ways to Replace Your Toxic Cleaners

Synthetic household cleaners are oftentimes full of hazardous and toxic chemicals that could be endangering the health of you and your family — particularly if you live in a ‘green’ home with very little airflow to the outside world. While some less threatening options do exist at grocery stores, especially organic cleaners, there are ways that you can utilize natural substances around your home to replace your toxic cleaners at very little or no cost. Here are 5 innovative ways that will help you throw out your old synthetic cleaners and replace them with health-promoting substances: 1. Disinfect and Deodorize Naturally Disinfectant chemicals are among the most

widely used in homes throughout the developed world. In fear of germs and the potential ailments that ‘dirty’ countertops could bring, you may be wiping down your tables daily with antibacterial wipes and sprays. Not only does this contribute to resistant bugs that could cause serious problems for public health, but scientists are increasingly showing that some bacteria is essential to proper immunity. Instead of harsh cleaners, use lemon juice to clean cutting boards and counter tops naturally — without developing heavily resistant ‘super’ bugs. In addition, the lemon juice can help remove unwanted stains and odors. 2. Bathroom Cleaning Bathroom cleaners are perhaps the most toxic cleaning supplies on the market, which is especially concerning when considering that the toxic compounds will end up compiling into the small space that compromises the traditional bathroom. Instead, use a mixture of borax powder and lemon juice to clean your bathroom efficiently and naturally.

3. Removing Tarnish

Use a simple â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;pasteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; made of table salt and lemon water to make copper, chrome, and brass shine once more. After applying the mixture, let it sit for about 10 minutes before rinsing with warm water and ultimately applying a gentle buffer to enhance the shine effect. 4. Natural Glass Cleaner Whether it is a dusty vase, dirty window, or old coffee pot, lemon juice is an excellent glass cleaner. Try using one part lemon juice in ten parts water and applying to a rag or paper towel. You will be surprised how effective the solution is, and perhaps even more impressed with the lack of chemical odor that traditionally fills the house after using many toxic glass cleaners. 5. Removing Grease Grease is often a pain to remove, even with many toxic concoctions that inhabit most cleaning supplies. As usual, the natural alternative is much more effective and inexpensive. Simply

use plain water and lemon juice to remove grease on kitchen appliances, counter tops, or cookware. Lemon juice is an excellent home cleaning substance, but it can also be used to boost your internal health. Warm water with lemon first thing in the morning is not only highly beneficial in fighting fat, but also in boosting immunity overall. Lemon presents itself as a highly useful health food item as well as a significant taste enhancer.

The Health Benefits of Oil Pulling What does oil pulling do? Multiple scientific studies show the efficacy of oil pulling therapy. One study [1] shows that oil pulling with sesame oil can boost overall oral health. Specifically, using sesame oil as an oral health agent helps to reduce the amount of S. mutans (germ) count in both teeth plaque and mouth saliva. Scientists believe that the lipids in the oil both pull out bacteria, as well as stop bacterial from sticking to the walls of the oral cavity.

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy for oral health and detoxification. It involves the use of pure oils as agents for pulling harmful bacteria, fungus, and other organisms out of the mouth, teeth, gums and even throat. The most effective oil pulling is done by placing around a tablespoon of cold pressed organic sesame oil into the mouth and swishing the oil around the mouth for approximately 10-15 minutes and then spitting it out. Other oils such as extra virgin cold pressedcoconut, sunflower and olive oil have been used, although sesame oil is considered one of the best oils for this practice. I recommend alternating oils every couple of days to get the full benefit. Putting high quality organic oils into the mouth has a multi-effect outcome. First, the oils mix with the saliva, turning it into a thin, white liquid. Lipids in the oils begin to pull out toxins from the saliva. As the oil is swished around the mouth, teeth, gums and tongue, the oil continues to absorb toxins, and usually ends up turning thick and viscous and white. Once the oil has reached this consistency, it is spit out before the toxins are reabsorbed.

Oil pulling may also increase saponification in the mouth, creating a soapy environment that cleanses the mouth as vegetable fat is an emulsifier by nature. Most interesting is perhaps the ability of oil to cleanse out harmful bacteria, as well as reduce fungal overgrowth. These oils also possibly help in cellular restructuring, and are related to the proper functioning of the lymph nodes and other internal organs. Other possible benefits of oil pulling for oral health include: 

Overall strengthening of the teeth and gums

and jaws. 

Prevention of diseases of the gums and mouth,

such as cavities and gingivitis. 

Prevention for bad breath

 

Potential holistic remedy for bleeding gums Prevention of dryness of the lips, mouth and throat.Possible holistic treatment for TMJ and general soreness in the jaw area.

Benefits Beyond the Mouth? Ancient Ayurvedic health practitioners believed that oil pulling could reduce more than just diseases of the mouth and throat. Today, many holistic practitioners tout its use for a variety of health concerns. It is believed that these oils help the lymphatic sys11

tem of the body as harmful bacteria are removed and beneficial micro flora are given with a healthy environment to flourish. Because of this holistic perspective, oil pulling has been used as a preventative health measure for many other conditions. Other possible benefits of oil pulling for overall health include:

It also holds a high concentration of Vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acids. These antioxidants have been found to stop the absorption of negative forms of cholesterol in theliver. Multiple studies have shown the antibacterial capacities of sesame oil. These studies support the use of oil pulling in the prevention of dental cavities and gingivitis. A 2007 study [2] looking into the effect of oil pulling (with sunflower oil) on plaque and gingivitis on oral soft and hard tissues. Results found that after 45 days of oil pulling, subjects showed a statistically significant reduction in gingivitis.

In fact, these studies showed an overall reduction of bacteria from 10 to 33.4% in participants, and after 40 days of oil-pulling, participants were found to show 20% in average reduction in oral bacteria. Moreover, half of all participants in this case study showed a drastic reduction in susceptibility to dental caries.

CREATE YOUR NEW MONEY MYTH YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR MONEY MYTH. What do I mean by “Money Myth”?

Money was created by humans. Money wasn’t anything, until humans called it into being! Humans decided what money was and what it could do.

Humans created every single self-told story about money; how money makes them feel; the “pros” and “cons” of money. What is important to remember is that money is neutral, and each of us has the power to create our own myths - in other words, stories, fables, legends and tales - about our money.

You are human. This means that you are a powerful creator.

You get to decide what money means to you - and how it works for you.

Each day this week, clearly and confidently decide what money now means for you, and what you will do with the “new money” you create.

You can now create your own magical, new money myth! Your new money story - the true fairytale of your happily-ever-after, wealthwizardry-filled, abundant life!

You create your money into your life. You create how your money shows up - or doesn’t show up and you create what you do with it. You create what your money means for you. Before you can fully understand and utilize your powerful tools of creation, you have to fully know and understand how powerful YOU are. You must hold the confidence within yourself to realize that you hold the key you need to create your wealth, success and the

The new moon in Taurus highlights Venus’ energy even So now it’s clean up time! Only once you have let those more this month. This is a great new moon to set things go, can you truly move forward. Take that beautiful

strong financial and abundance goals for yourself. This is also a great moon for starting a good routine or habit. It will set a strong tone to follow through with what you start. Anything started in a Taurus moon will stick and secure itself in your life, so be careful what you intend, and what you start. Taurus is a fixed, earth sign so be careful not to be too stubborn. Taurus is also the bull, so whatever you charge at…you will charge, full force; determination is a key quality of this moon. You may be feeling a little extra romantic in the presence of this moon; spend some time with someone you love. Show those you love that you love them. It is always appreciated.

This is a great habit to start in a Taurus moon; the habit of gratitude. The Full moon in Scorpio shines down upon us and lights up our lives on Wednesday, May 14th. This is a full moon of ultimate transformation and rebirth. Prepare yourself…transformation is not always easy, but if you go with the flow of Scorpio, and make intuitive decisions you’ll be wonderful. Because Scorpio is quite intense, you may be surprised when this full moon comes in. Scorpio brings you to the deep oceans of emotion, and was once ruled by Mars. Now ruled by Pluto, its focus is toward the darker side of things. The darker side is not a bad side. It is just the side that is absent from the light; the side we may not choose to show to the world. It is our internal, personal side and subconscious desires.

Scorpio carries with it, a lot of sensual, deep and emotional desires. Scorpio is extremely passionate; it is a very deep, emotional kind of passion. Scorpio brings in a lot of creativity in addition to being very psychic; you may receive messages from your guides or other ethereal beings. If you wish, just affirm that you want to receive a message from the universe, and it will be done. Scorpio teaches us that transformation can come in any form, and it will not always be an external force that causes great changes in us. We have all been in and through many stages of change and transformation, but this May will really jump start all that regeneration and growth. The Libra-Taurus cycle in April was very needed to clear out that remaining sludge and those blockages that were preventing any further growth, as well as nurture the great aspects of ourselves and others. Scorpio is symbolic of death and regeneration; it shows us that sometimes all we need to do is turn inwards to get to the root of things. Look inside, you have all the answers. You already know what you need to do. The Sun moves into the sign of Gemini on May 20th. Gemini shines on us just in time for the weather to really turn into summer! I know…I know…but I still can’t wait for Solstice! Gemini brings in a lot of focus to the areas of speaking, networking and ideas. The moon quickly follows suit and moves into Gemini on May 28th. This brings even more Gemini energy into the picture. Use those creative ideas and they may spark some new connections throughout the month of June. This is a time of messages and message receiving. If you find that you are having trouble understanding any of the messages you received, or don’t think you’ve received any, spend some

“When you want something, all the universe

conspires in helping you achieve it.” –Paulo Coelho time with your higher-self and Creator. Use that Gemini communicative energy to communicate with your Guides, Higher-Self and Creator. Ask those questions that may be holding you back. Dive into the world of trusting your Guides; you will not be let down. A little trust goes a long way, and the first place to start is with yourself. Trust yourself! Gemini will definitely get your thoughts flowing, as it is ruled by Mercury, the planet of thought, intellect, communication and travel. It is a wonderful time for writing. If you feel like you’re having trouble organizing your thoughts, try writing. See where it takes you. You may even want to start a morning journaling routine or some form of creative writing. This will give you a deeper connection with yourself and your subconscious. It’s also the perfect time to take a trip or to have a debate. Another thing about Gemini is that it’s excellent for both social gatherings, and one-on-one communication. You can have the best of both worlds here. Gemini energy produces stimulating conversations, and often endless possibilities as it loves spontaneity. The week before June 7th will have you feeling the shift into Mercury retrograde. When Mercury slows down everyone takes note. Mercury retrogrades will often get you feeling nostalgic and thinking about the past. This time Mercury goes retrograde in the sign of Cancer. This will probably have you looking back at your emotional or family related past issues. Cancer is the sign of the mother so it could even be that an issue with your mother comes up during this time. Whatever you find weighing you down during this period, just

remember that it will soon pass. Retrogrades are a great time to remind you of the cycles in life. They are great for retrospection. Try to get most of those bills and all that paperwork stamped and mailed before this retrograde. Money, computers, communication and travel can tend to go on the fritz during these Mercury retrogrades, just plan accordingly, and you may only run into mild miscommunications. Of course, Virgos and Gemini’s tend to be affected a bit more during these times as it rules both those signs, but with planning (a forte of both Virgo and Gemini) one can lessen the blow. This may have an impact on all those goals and plans you have set for yourself; don’t worry. Any setbacks felt now will all be a distant memory when July comes around. The full moon in Sagittarius adorns the sky on Friday the 13th of June. Lucky Lucky…Sagittarius is ruled by the planet of expansion, Jupiter, and often represented as a centaur. This moon sign will make any intentions that you may have set in the beginning of spring skyrocket. Expanding, expanding, expanding, growing, growing, growing…beyond your wildest dreams! This is why it’s so important to continue to trust and show gratitude for everything that comes your way. The more trust, the more expansion possible! This fiery adventurer will bring out the fun, holiday sprite in us all. Get ready for some fun! Just don’t go too overboard with the spending. Sagittarius is very generous, and loves expansion. Sagittarius also brings our focus to philosophy, religion and our higher mind. It is a mutable, fire sign which means it has to potential to change and fluctuate quickly, in any direction possible, so be prepared for an amazing

ride! If you find that you are having trouble trusting in this positive expansion, spend some time with your higher-self and Creator. Your connection with your higher-self is your connection with Creator. Feel that unconditional love, and trust that the universe will provide you with exactly what you need to fulfill your life’s purpose. Sit quietly for a bit to see if any messages come through. Pay attention to what these messages say. Trust and believe they are leading you on the perfect path of your life’s purpose and dream; you will surely succeed. This beautiful Sagittarius energy also sends out an adventure call to all of us. It will bring out our adventurous spirit and playful nature. Enjoy it! Nothing raises your vibration like play and laughter, so embrace them. This wonderful fire sign will brighten up your mood, and your calendar. Looking forward to seeing all the amazing expansions Sagittarius will bring into our lives. It is definitely the sign of making dreams come true with your higher connection and trust in your own expansion. Use your imagination… no limits… Sagittarius is the sign of unlimited possibilities, so dream big! Expansion is here. Let’s see what our dreams with unlimited potential can do! Be prepared for a fun, but busy spring! Let’s go! Appreciate all that grows around you. Plant seeds of love and you will blossom into the beautiful flower of love that you are! Astrology, the study of the celestial bodies and their influence on us, always teaches us the balance between having fun and being responsible, between inner and

outer and between retrospection and forward motion. This is the beautiful cycle of life. We are grateful for such a collaboration of amazing experiences, and so thankful for this ever continuing adventure. In Love, Light and Gratitude, Namaste, Johanna Delaney

It is apparent to me that most Twitter users using the network for business don’t have a clue what they are doing. It is sad to see how many Twitter feeds that simply Tweet out content for the sake of it and miss out on the opportunity this tool provides. I suppose it has to be expected, many users come from a traditional marketing background and in the old days communication was a one way street. Twitter is fantastic for making connections, building relationships and nurturing community. When using the tool for marketing and business development you are wasting your time if all you are doing is posting links to content (especially if that content isn’t even yours). 75% of Tweets go unnoticed and fewer than 5% get retweeted. If this resonates then perhaps you should get off Twitter and start doing something more productive. Or, you could consider the following list of tips to make better use of Twitter for business development. Listen and Respond If someone retweets one of your posts, have the decency to thank them or at least acknowledge the Tweet. Your community can 23

become a powerful advocate for you and a great way to grow your following but only if you stroke it and respect it. If someone retweets your content regularly and you don’t even notice it shows how little you care and sends a negative message and they will soon stop, or worse start dissing you. Don’t create trolls!

Don’t Cheat Don’t plagiarize other peoples Tweets without acknowledgement (remember the “RT”). Retweeting can be a strong tool to make a direct connection so use this as an opportunity to build rapport rather than annoy. All is takes is a little @.

Don’t be greedy Be Community Minded Watch your follow to follower ratio. If you A community relies on interaction are following way more people than you have between members.

1. Make it interesting – post a great fact that most people don’t know or a quote to inspire – but always make sure its relevant to your audience and brand.

3. Share, comment and endorse content from others in your industry. If you scratch their back they’ll likely return the favor.

4. Questions encourage your audience to respond but make sure that every update isn’t a question as this gets a bit boring. 5. Encourage followers to act on your update. Spell it out to them so they know what it is they’re supposed to do! 6. Don’t just post a link with no description – tell people a little about it so that they can decide to click through or not. People avoid clicking on links as they seem spammy. 7. Make your P.S. in email newsletters short and sweet. I saw one lately that was almost as long as the email itself! 8. Use short links – especially on Twitter – as this encourages people to share and gives them the space to do so. 9. Followers are more likely to click like on photos and images (especially on Facebook) so post images often and use an app like Over to enhance images with text. 10. Ask for comments and get people to share. There are lots of ways to do this and what works best will depend on your audience. When people do comment, always respond.

One of my favorite bands is Switchfoot and their song “Adding to the Noise” is the inspiration for this article. When I started it four years ago, there were roughly 200,000 million blogs and I couldn’t imagine why the world would need another one. I even wrote a post “The Last Thing We Need Is Another Blog.” Ultimately this question lead me to the debate between quantity versus quality. A recent Michael Stelzner podcast interview featured Jeff Goins, a successful blogger and author who had several blog failures when he was chasing subscribers (quantity focus) until he started a passion blog (quality focus) that now has over 200,000 subscribers. Today Technorati indexes over 1.3 billion blogs and the focus on quality content has become more important than ever. For marketers this noise has been creeping up in another social landscape – Facebook. In August of 2013 Facebook revealed that “every time someone visits News Feed there are on average 1,500 potential stories … most people don’t have time to see them all.” By December 2013 Ad Age reported “Facebook Admits

Organic Reach Is Falling Short, Urges Marketers to Buy Ads.” The bottom line is that Facebook has changed its algorithm, formerly called Edgerank, and content from business Pages has seen a dropoff in organic reach. In response, Facebook is urging paid distribution for brands to get back into their fan’s News Feeds. Since the tweak some brands have reported as much as a 40% decrease in organic reach. Decrease in organic reach from Edgerank Checker. In the end, business may have to increase their Facebook spending to maintain or expand reach, but there could be another option. Switchfoot sings, “What’s it going to take to slow us down … If we’re adding to the noise turn off this song.” Perhaps we need another content revolution. If you provide content people want to engage with, not turn off, you will break through the noise. Brands could up their content game to emerge organically from the noise in users’ News Feeds. But this revolution is fueled by more than quality content. It is also about quality time. Mari 26

Decrease in organic reach from Edgerank Checker.

Smith, author of Facebook Marketing an Hour a Day suggests that marketers should focus more on community management. The more your fans like, comment and share your content, the more likely that content will show up in their news feeds. It seems there is room for improvement in the engagement game. Social Bakers provides social media monitoring tools and has been measuring brandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engagement levels on social networks. Their recent reports indicate that only 10% of brands respond to 85% of questions on Facebook.

Ted Rubin calls this a real Return on Relationship. Fight quantity (clutter & filters) with quality (content & engagement). With every post, update and comment ask yourself, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is it adding something meaningful or simply adding to the noise?â&#x20AC;?

ARE YOUR VIBRATIONS HELPING OR HURTING YOU? Your personal vibration frequency could be the ONE thing holding you back from abundance, happiness and success. Discover how to raise it, so you can finally start living from the vibration of Love or Above. Just like how seismographs are used to measure earthquakes, recent breakthroughs have allowed researchers to measure a person’s energetic frequency on a specific Vibrations Scale. How does the scale work? Well imagine you have a scale of 1 to 1,000, with 1,000 being the highest state a human being can attain. If you reach this level you would be an Enlightened Master. At the lowest end of the spectrum is someone who is not thriving at all. Researchers use muscle testing and kinesiology to determine where people are on this scale. As you can see, heavy emotions like sadness, guilt or humiliation vibrate at low frequencies, while feelings like love, bliss and Many clients have reported experiencing: enlightenment vibrate at high, uplifting frequencies.

Quantum Entanglement and the Quantum Mind QUANTUM MECHANICS

Perhaps we are already deeply and intimately interconnected. In Brain Wars (2012) Mario Beauregard, a professor in the Neuroscience Research Centre at the University of Montreal, explores the phenomena of out of body experiences, near death experiences, psi (various psychic phenomena), telepathy, and other paranormal events. His conclusion is that the scientific perspectives that view the mind as a product of the brain and the mind as separate and distinct from the universe are deeply flawed. His thinking on this leads us into quantum mechanics. Perhaps most compelling or intriguing aspect of quantum mechanics, from the perspective of post-literacy, is the concept of quantum entanglement: the idea that

particles are twinned and change states (spins) relative to each other regardless of their distance from each other (adjacent or light years apart). Hence they are “entangled” or responsive to each other. Einstein famously referred to this as “spooky action at a distance.”

“tendencies to exist” (Capra, The Tao of Physics, 1975). However, Beauregard makes the case that this entanglement is the basis for consciousness (or mind) as a phenomena of the universe. He sees,

It is important to remember that this entanglement is at the particle level, where quantum theory tell us that such elementary particles don’t actually exist but have

Is the brain a quantum computer?

“a deep interconnectedness between the mental world and the physical world, which both arise out of the same source “We are analog beings This basic interconnectedness living in a digital world, renders the mind capable facing a quantum future.” of influencing various phenomena and events Neil Turok, The Universe belonging to the physical world. Information may Within (2012) act as a bridge between these complementary aspects of reality”

Does quantum mechanics explain consciousness? 30

Extrapolating from this, is there a quantum mind and can it be means for a profoundly new way of understanding and acting upon the universe? The ground breaking theory of Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff on the nature of microtubles (a concept known as Orchestrated Objective Reduction) is hotly contested. Some, like Victor Stenger, believe all this belongs to the fantasy realm of “unicorns and dragons.” Others, like Beauregard, are willing to venture into new terrain and suggest new possibilities, beyond scientific materialism, that would fundamentally transform our understanding of our position in the universe and the capabilities we have. Neil Turok, Director of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and a colleague of Stephen Hawking, agrees with Beauregard: “The Internet is only a harbinger. Quantum technologies may change entirely the way in which we process information. In time, they many do much more, allowing us to gain a heighted awareness of reality and of the ways the physical world works. As the depth of our knowledge grow, our representation of the universe will achieve much higher fidelity. Our new knowledge will enable technologies that will vastly supercede current limits. They may change our very nature and bring us closer to realizing the full potential of our existence.” Using a deliberate contradiction, Turok observes that “quantum physical teaches us that, in a very real sense, we all live in an imaginary reality.” It is a “quantum future” that may offer insights into a post-literate world.

Quantum Science Inward with Outward It is said in Quantum Connectivity or Quantum Entanglement that physical phenomenon occur when pairs (or groups such as the human body) of particles are generated or interact in ways such that the quantum state of each member must subsequently be described relative to the other. These last weeks I have understood and experienced exactly how this works. The peace it brings is exciting and immeasurable. The best way perhaps to understand Quantum Entanglement is to explain light (or photons) and how light operates. The utter bedazzlement happens when things or particles are observed. In other words, the state of a photon is one way when observed, and another when unobserved; mere observation changes the state of particles – and get this – no matter their distance apart. Albert Einstein was so intrigued by this he called it “spooky action at a distance.” In the labs of Quantum physicists, this is what takes place: “When observed, Photon A takes on an up-spin state. Entangled Photon B, though now far away, takes up a state relative to that of Photon A (in this case a down-spin state). The transfer of state between Photon A and Photon B takes place at a speed of at least 10,000 times the speed of light, possibly even instantaneously, regardless of distance.” This interaction doesn’t just happen between photons. It happens between bodies or groups of electromagnetic particles, including living intelligent systems. Think about it. As a crude example but nonetheless true, humans behave differently when they are being observed versus when they are 32

not. The changed behavior still takes place when no verbal interaction exists. The interaction, or entanglement, is still happening because they are connected by observation made possible by invisible subatomic particles. This state of interaction is no different than the state between photons. The common denominators are the electromagnetic particles that make up the entities. What I find interesting is that when the interacting photons entangle, they take on a state of polarization, or opposite states. What is mind-blowing is that the distance between the bodies is irrelevant.

My attempts to join quantum mechanics with classical mechanics, such as psychology, philosophy, or biology, I’m sure would make the experts of both fields chuckle. Nevertheless, what I understand in these current quantum theories is the unlimited potential of information being passed, realized or unrealized, and irrelevant to perception or time. It is a question of observation; the state of being highly aware. And if I am acutely aware of the infinite systems surrounding me, intelligent purposeful systems, then the more I understand my place. And as such, I am more realized and less unrealized. Many weeks ago, before my move back to the Dallas area, I had a red-shouldered hawk perch itself on a branch just yards from me. I know it knew I was near

because it looked straight at me, almost starring, several times. For at least twominutes it moved its head scanning, then always back to me. If you know about redshouldered hawks, they are solitary birds and in the wild keep their safe distance from humans. For some reason this hawk was not bothered by my proximity. I found its behavior a little extraordinary but concluded the encounter as randomly weird and moved on. A few days later the same thing happened and I couldn’t discount its second visit as random chance; not within the mechanics of quantum entanglement. Yes, I know; a big leap perhaps. But stay with me a minute. I have a deep fondness and admiration for indigenous people and their connection to nature and Earth. Though they might appear as “uncivilized” by Western standards, they have an understanding of their environment that goes much deeper than our vocabulary and descriptions. Native American culture is inextricably connected with natural systems, Earth-systems, and their culture places high regard and meaning for hawk visits. For example, a hawk brings or confirms heightened vision, power, energy, and a rebirth. It also brings or confirms heightened strategy, intensity, attention, protection, teamwork, intelligence, focus, and intuition. I have noticed an increase in all of these traits over the last two months, 33

many of them confirmed by coworkers and friends without my solicitations. One website explaining hawk visits and totems says the following, which I found further confirms what has happened in my life these last few months. Bear with me please: “Hawk totems are extraordinarily effective at protection.

They are kind of like raptor-angels. They keep watch over those who hold an affinity for them (and vice versa). They tend to arrange energy in such a way so that danger or bad choices are either made known to their people, or are avoided altogether. If the hawk is your totem, you are extremely perceptive. You see things others miss. Your vision goes beyond the physical too – you have a knack for seeing into the souls of people you deal with. You might call it a gift of intuition. You just have a sense, or an ‘aerial view’ into what is going on in the hearts of people. This is a great trait, but the downside to hawk people with this gift is that you tend to be way too forthcoming with your observations. Being naturally direct and candid personality types, hawkpeople will make pointed statements about very sensitive issues that they’ve picked up by their powers of perception. Word of advice: Be delicate and diplomatic with your deductions. Perhaps it is their unyielding honesty that makes hawkpeople admirable partners. People who have hawk as their totem make outstanding mates, friends, co-workers, lovers, sister, brothers etc. They are loyal, honest and direct. Typically, you always know where you stand with a hawkperson, and others find this refreshing in a world of mindgamers. Hawk-partners are also very protective, and will defend their compatriots to a fierce degree. Those with the hawk as their totem are also visionaries. They look above the problem (another ‘aerial view’), for solutions. They are expert problem solvers because they aren’t part of the problem – they aren’t stuck in the issue. Rather, they rise above it, and in an elevated state they are able to see answers most might overlook.” Now many would argue that it is simply a hawk’s instinct to fly and perch in certain ways. Many would argue there are logical environmental or predatory reasons the hawk perched in that particular spot. I would not disagree one 34

bit. There is a waterfall and pond just under the two different branches it sat on. The habitat of Red-shouldered hawks is indeed forests and streams where their food can be found. Our pond has several goldfish and one or two leopard frogs. What naysayers canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t explain away is their known behavior around humans: solitude. In the wild they do not seek out the company of humans! Yet my red-shouldered hawk did just that, for long moments, and did so on two separate occasions within days. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe I can ignore that. And with an adequate understanding of the interaction between quantum atomic systems and macro-systems (themselves made up of quantum systems) demands at least examining the encounters, not ignoring them. This I know: my powers of intuition and observation are definitely heightened and I am doing no illegal drugs. This has been evidenced in several life-decisions and reactions, or interactions with people over these last couple of months. What is amazing for me is to see and understand how it all operates and coexists. What is more astonishing is watching it all work without words. The exchange of information takes place not only on obvious levels such as verbal communication, but just as much on subatomic levels. One only needs to become more observant, more aware of the exchange method, if you will. In fact, I would wager that much much more information is available and exchanged than the obvious five senses. Quantum Entanglement is increasingly showing this phenomenon to exist. We crudely call it intuition. I wonder if we are to eventually know that the inward and the outward are never really separated, ever, by any distance? This work by Professor Taboo 35

Quantum Dropleton:

Making a dropleton

To make the dropleton, Mackillo Kira, a professor of physics at Philipps University, and colleagues at the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics in Colorado fired quick pulses of an extremely powerful laser at a block of gallium arsenide, the same material used in red lightPhysicists can spend years seeking new particles to emitting diodes (LEDs). Each pulse illuminate aspects of nature's laws, but an international team decided instead to make their own lasted less 100 femtoseconds, or billionths of a billionth of a second. particles. When the light hit the gallium arsenide, the atoms released, or Called a dropleton or quantum droplet, the newly excited, electrons, which moved created "particle" is actually a short-lived cluster of around in the gallium arsenide like a electrons and positive charges called "holes."

Colorado, researchers made an agglomeration of electrons and holes that was bigger than any created "In a sense, [dropletons] are particles whose properties are before â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 200 nanometers, or billionths of a meter, across. That is almost big enough to see with a good largely determined by the microscope, about one-50th the thickness of a cotton environment, which makes them so exciting," Kira told Live Science in fiber. Before now, physicists had created two-pair an email. For instance, groups of electrons and holes, but never such an agglomeration that could form this liquid-like quantum semiconductors work best, Kira said, because the way their droplet or dropleton. electrons are arranged makes it easier to excite them.

Weird New Particle Acts Like Liquid

These dropletons behave according to the rules of quantum physics, and that means scientists can use the particles to investigate how light interacts with matter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a process also governed by quantum rules. Because the dropletons are so large, in particle terms, they might also help physicists locate the boundaries between the quantum world of the very small and the classical world of the human scale, the physicists report in the Feb. 27 issue of the journal Nature.

Since the dropleton is an artificial particle, containing a number of electrons, it acts something like a super-sized electron. That property means physicists could essentially modify the size of an electron for experiments. "This allows us to engineer â&#x20AC;Ś a man-mademass for an electron instead of the universal constant measured in free space," Kira told Live Science in an email. 36

were no longer excitons bound in pairs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they were dropletons. The electrons, unbound from single holes, formed a kind of standing wave pattern around them. It's similar to the patterns that ordinary molecules make in liquids (think of a stone thrown into the water and the ripple pattern created), Kira said. Dropletons don't last long, only 25 picoseconds, or trillionths of a second. But that's actually a relatively long time in terms of quantum-physical processes. Kira added that the work suggests several interesting experiments. For Of all the electron-hole particles instance, the photons that excite the that have been created, this is electrons to form dropletons become the first to ever hold enough entangled with the individual exciton pairs to form a liquid-like pairs.

Arthur Boorman was a disabled veteran of the Gulf War for 15 years, and was told by his doctors that he would never be able to walk on his own, ever again. He stumbled upon an article about Diamond Dallas Page doing Yoga and decided to give it a try -- he couldn't do traditional, higher impact exercise, so he tried DDP YOGA and sent an email to Dallas telling him his story. Dallas was so moved by his story, he began emailing and speaking on the phone with Arthur throughout his journey - he encouraged Arthur to keep going and to believe that anything was possible. Even though doctors told him walking would never happen, Arthur was persistent. He fell many times, but kept going. Arthur was getting stronger rapidly, and he was losing weight at an incredible rate!

His story is proof, that we cannot place limits on what we are capable of doing, because we often do not know our own potential. Niether Arthur, nor Dallas knew what he would go on to accomplish, but this video speaks for itself. In less than a year, Arthur completely transformed his life. If only he had known what he was capable of, 15 years earlier. Do not waste any time thinking you are stuck you can take control over your life, and change it faster than you might think. Hopefully this story can inspire you to follow your dreams - whatever they may be. Anything is Possible! Watch this inspirational story unfold!

Greetings, during the past 3 months of this New Year you have focused on what must be done within, and tried to find more balance within and in the outer aspects of your world. Healing has been taking place, and still is. The next 3 months is that time to Step into your Power, and to stop blaming others, circumstances and such, and just take responsibility for your life and what you create for it. You can create the Life you desire. As part of your healing, it is seeing that the setbacks that have happened have just been necessary for your growth. See everything as a gift. All that you perceive as good or bad are gifts that help you to find your true path. So stand in your truth. Love and accept all the imperfections, and work with what you have to the best of your abilities at the moment. Just be who you are... regardless of what others think. Stop focusing on the past, as it keeps you from being fully present in the moment right now. You can consciously make the choice to stop dwelling in the past, and worrying about the future. As every experience, no matter how you perceived it, has come with a gift attached to it, sometimes it takes time till that gift is revealed to you. Now is that time, however, to reclaim the 'real you' by directing all of your precious energy into the presentâ&#x20AC;Śto breath in and let go of the concerns you have about the past and the future. As your energy is magnetic and magical, your love and wisdom is strong, which is why you find many drawn to you. As the real attraction happens at a soul level, your energy is one that has a calming and healing affect upon others. You and others and the universe are all going through cycles of change. 42

Many of these earth changes have been prophesized, and many are even now occurring. Through this all you are able to help others just as they are able to help you, as this is all part of the natural cycle and we Angels are always there guiding and protecting you and your loved ones. As you move through this new cycle for the next 3 months, allow the Angels to help carry you and to help you with grounding yourself through the cycle of change. Remember prayer always helps to improve all situations, so don't hesitate to call upon us, as we can only come forward with your permission and at your request. The power of this Full moon that is due to arrive on April 15, and continue onward for the next 3 months one of healing, as the energy reflects the healing light of the Sun and the magnificence of the divine universe. So allow yourself to once in a while, when the skies are clear or clear enough to view, allow the energy of it to flow through you by enjoying the beauty of the moon & the stars. Just as there is magic in the skies, there is magic in your life. Enjoy the simple and little things, and know that as decisions and choices come forward, there is no need to rush into anything. Feel your way through them, as these are your choices, and your best course of action is to slow yourself down, and take your time. Ask questions if you need to, research options and alternatives, as you invest your time and energy into many aspects of your world. Take a look deeply into the aspects that are not beneficial for you or others; call upon Archangel Michael to help shield and protect you, and follow your inner guidance every step of the way as you move through the transitions of changes.

We send forth blessings, wanting you to know that the challenges will soon pass, as clearing and healing are underway. Your heart yearns for this transformation of being free from the frustration. As you work to surrender the past, there is an instinctive resistance to change, and this is normal, for you have no clear idea of what change may bring. We ask you to trust that you are guided and safe; know that you have an angelic presence surrounding you. Stop the inner struggle; let go and allow the transformations to take place. You may feel a bit of discomfort in the coming days or weeks, as at times may feel like emotions are about to explode, but know that this is all part of the process. There is nothing to fear, as there is only love and new beginnings ahead. We want you to know that it is safe for you to move through these changes, we know that you at times hesitate with the guidance we send you, as you doubt your feelings, ideas and thoughts. We are present among you, and you can ask for verification from us in that you are accurately hearing, seeing and or feeling the divine guidance we are sending forth, to assist you in being more certain and comfortable moving forward knowing that you are safe and on the right path. Simply call and ask us to show you the next step, as even though the actions and steps may seem small at times, every step is one in the right direction. We are there walking with you every step of the way, holding your hand, and giving you the confidence and courage you need, and guiding your thoughts and actions in the direction of Love.

Much Love, Light and Abundant Blessings, Lizabeth Spencer (aKa Angelic Spirit)

Loving yourselfâ&#x20AC;Ś does not mean being selfabsorbed or narcissistic, or disregarding others. Rather it means welcoming yourself as the most honored guest in your own heart, a guest worthy of respect, a lovable companion. - Margo Anand Photo by BlackJack0919 45

Recommended Books Continued The Seat of the Soul By Gary Zukav With lucidity and elegance, Zukav explains that we are evolving

from a species that pursues power based upon the perceptions of the five senses -- external power -- into a species that pursues

authentic power -- power that is based upon the perceptions and values of the spirit. He shows how the pursuit of external power has produced our survival-of-the-fittest understanding of

evolution, generated conflict between lovers, communities, and

superpowers, and brought us to the edge of destruction. Using his scientist's eye and philosopher's heart, Zukav shows how infusing the activities of life with reverence, compassion, and trust makes them come alive with meaning and purpose. Find it Here

story into an American bestseller. Liz Murray, 29, rose from some of New York's meanest streets to

graduate from the Ivy League and has become an international speaker. But some of her earliest memories are of her parents spending their welfare payments on cocaine and heroin when she and her sister were starving: "We ate ice cubes because it felt like eating. We split a tube of

toothpaste between us for dinner." Oprah Winfrey gave her a chutzpah award and she met Bill Clinton. She has talked at events alongside Tony Blair, Mikhail Gorbachev and the Dalai Lama.

The Indigo Evolution Full Length Documentary Indigo children Watch Now

"The Indigo Evolution" is a

documentary that attempts to answer

the question - Are these 'Indigos' only the fanciful notions of a few

individuals embracing new-age, metaphysical beliefs, or is there real evidence that they truly do exist? Most importantly, why are they here and how can we help them achieve their goal of

creating a world based upon the laws of compassion and peace? Interviews with some of the most profound children on the planet today combined with discussions with authorities in the fields of

medicine, psychology, education, philosophy, and religion will provide information for the viewer to draw their own conclusions to these questions.

Religion often helps a lost soul find love of self. I won’t dismiss that; for many, that is their hope and salvation, but this is my take on self-love. To love yourself you have to learn from the inside, and only when you do that, will you be able to love others outside yourself. Oscar Hammerstein, the brilliant lyricist who wrote unforgettable love songs with Richard Rogers, also wrote the words to You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught, as a deliberate protest against racial injustice. For those unfamiliar with the song, it is from Rogers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific. Hammerstein argued that parents often teach their children to hate others because of skin color or ethnicity.

I would also argue another related point that parents, with the best intentions, may reassure their child by saying: “You’re special” or “You’re the best,” while at the same time those parents display their own insecurities and lack of self-worth, a formula that often backfires. Down the road, if a child doesn’t develop self-love, that girl or boy will often hurt others to buy their self-worth. Teaching a child to love her or himself 53

To love oneself doesn’t begin at the beginning. Until your brain has developed cognitively, and you are able to communicate complex thoughts, that is when the potential for love of self exists. I could reference the self-help masters and their books, including required reading in school (twice), I’m OK, You’re OK (Thomas A Harris MD) and Eric Fromm’s The Art of Loving, a book I’d like to return to someday. Religion often helps a lost soul find love of self. I won’t dismiss that; for many, that is their hope and salvation, but this is my take on self-love. To love yourself you have to learn from the inside, and only when you do that, will you be able to love others outside yourself. Oscar Hammerstein, the brilliant lyricist who wrote unforgettable love songs with Richard Rogers, also wrote the words to You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught, as a deliberate protest against racial injustice. For those unfamiliar with the song, it is from Rogers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific. Hammerstein argued that parents often teach their children to hate others because of skin color or ethnicity. I would also argue another related point that parents, with the best intentions, may reassure their child by saying: “You’re special” or “You’re the best,” while at the same time those parents display their own insecurities and lack of self-worth, a formula that often backfires. Down the road, if a child doesn’t develop self-love, that girl or boy will often hurt others to buy their self-worth. Teaching a child to love her or himself before he or she leaves home, takes courage. The parent has to be firm, to be kind, but also help their child see their self-worth through encouragement and mentoring. If the parents’ efforts aren’t working, seeking professional assistance would also help. Numerous examples exist where parents have done what they could to help their child discover inner strength and love; however, the child and then later the adult couldn’t believe they had value. Getting the child the help he or she needs as early as possible will only spare the entire family pain and tumult. Any mental health expert would agree that loving yourself can only come from inside the child’s heart and mind. I will admit, without hesitation, that I’m not a parent. Don’t want to be. That said, I like children and have friends who are parents. As an objective observer, I can emphatically say that the children who suffer the most are those whose parents refuse to set boundaries or enable dependence. I’ve heard the same rationale against this behavior from 54

parents around the world (literally, when I traveled overseas). That enablement, like other bad habits, can be passed down from generation to generation. There are always exceptions, of course. Some children find self-love without parental guidance or interference. Often a parent or both aren’t present in a child’s life, or are working to make ends meet. For this reason mentoring programs remain popular. Moving on to individual adults, many are desperate for acclamation. They wear an invisible label reading: “Tell me I’m wonderful.” They don’t consciously recognize they lack self-worth, however, obvious examples of these persons include artists or actors, some of whom willingly admit they chose their profession because of their neuroses or insecurities. What about the rest of the adult populous? Based on continuing blockbuster sales of self-help books, skyrocketing, hits on an unlimited number of websites and viewers of Dr. Phil, there isn’t a shortage of people desperate for answers. Yet all the questions often have one answer: love yourself and your world will expand, will bring unforeseen rewards. That search takes work; it’s hard work. It’s easy to be critical, to dissect, to react negatively, to insult, to chastise, to humiliate or be a bully. There isn’t a profession that I’ve observed, and I’ve either participated in or had exposure to multiple fields, where the proverbial saying, Pride cometh before the fall, (The Bible) didn’t apply. The worst offenders often strut around with a façade of confidence and dismiss anyone who doesn’t play their game. Then, these power wranglers would disappear, sometimes long after they should have gone, when the officiating bodies would realize they’d been fooled. Why the delay? Why would it take so long for the Toronto city officials, for example, to see their mayor is a fool? In my opinion, they were duped by a man who had seemed to be complete, but secretly wasn’t: he didn’t love himself. If he did, he would never have resorted to escaping by using drugs. From the workplace and politics, and on to romantic relationships. Is it possible to love another human being if you don’t love yourself? Of course! Looking for love often involves searching for a partner who will love you as much as you love them, if not more. The less we love ourselves, the more love we need from our partners. In contrast, the less we love ourselves the less we are able to give our partners. More so, making difficult decisions as to whether a person should stay with their partner often revolves around self-love. 55

The example I present involves a woman, I’ll call her Ms. Self-Deluded. She stayed with her partner, a man for those who care, for a decade hoping he would marry her. When she finally saw how much she had been hurting herself by staying with a man who wouldn’t commit, she walked away and didn’t regret her decision. Then there are those who learn quickly that their partners aren’t right for them. They have the confidence and bravery to live alone rather than subject themselves or compromise too much to be in a relationship where they see no future. Years ago I had a colleague who gave me confusing advice: “Don’t ever settle.” I’d asked her to explain what she meant, but she wouldn’t and returned to her room. Yes, she had personal challenges, i.e. she loved teaching, and loathed socializing. I never got around to getting an answer, for she eluded me the rest of the year. “Don’t ever settle.” Did she mean my career? Love life? Both were intertwined at the time. In retrospect, I wouldn’t say that teacher hadn’t been a model of self-love. However, her advice finally rang true on both counts job and romance. I did discover a career that I love, decades

later after holding on too long to conventional wisdom. When I realized my passion, writing, life turned around 180°, and if my career continues to escalate, or when my chosen profession becomes financially sound—it’s already fulfilling—I will inch closer to my expectations. I’m still weighing the pros and cons of my romantic future. You see, I’m not the ideal of self-love either and have some physical limitations, still I’m confident I have a lot to offer. More importantly, I know I can survive and savor life with or without a man, for I’ve done so for some time. I also know I have the capacity to give too much without expecting half that effort in return. Will continue working on closing that gap. As for reaching the apex, wholehearted self-love, like nirvana, that goal may never be achievable. Personally, like many, I have issues to overcome, neuroses which show outwardly. Inwardly I have found selfworth, self-respect and am inching closer to true love, that is of myself.

April has proven to be an amazing month we just had a Blood Moon that the Fairies, and Angels illustrated to address your desires. I love to engage with the moon cycle. This is how the Universe connects with us in such extravagant ways, yet sometimes we are too blind to notice. April is a month of New-ness. Those of us actively working on our projects are starting to see the growth of our blooms maybe a tiny sprout, but we nevertheless are seeing the signs. If you have let the energies of February and March take your better half then you have and are probably engaging in chaos and tension, but this is what you can do to change this situation.

“Keep your face always toward the sunlight and shadows will fall behind you.” ~Walt Whitman

“April’s messages from the Fairies”. Tone down, dear ones; you are fragile at this moment because you are not allowing the flow of humanity. You feel the tension and issues of the world, and you are encouraging the drama of others within your close circle. Let those energies move around you, underneath you, above you, but not on you. If others speak ill simply “WALK AWAY.” You must encourage inner peace to come through and spill over in your life’s settings. This should be the moment of seeing the fruits; your dreams are coming true. Many are witnessing Now -Ness unravel in beautifully majestic ways. You can witness those miracles too. It is never too late; what you have is Now, and Now is all you need. Stop the tension, and allow the ease.”

As April is in the middle the Fairies say to buckle up and MOVE!!! MOVE your homes, your careers; it’s time for MAJOR shifts to take place. If the setting is not working then MOVE the DESK, the furniture, your home, your job, your friends. GET OUTSIDE AND DANCE. When I am within my natural flow of spirituality I dance with the elementals. Have you ever danced with the fairies? It is one of the most magical creations and energies you can ever feel. Get outside; put on some moving light music that will enhance the energies of FLOW, and simply move your body to 61

the rhythms of the song. Ask the fairies to join you; they will for the Fairies LOVE to dance. This upcoming month I will be doing some Fairy Movement Videos; you are more than welcome to Move along with me and the elementals. The fairies explain that MOVING is such a strong energy because when things seem to stand still, by moving you allow new things to occur. Blocks shift, and the energy simply FLOWS. The next three months is about allowing the FLOW.

Now many of us are doing major work. I am working on revising my E-book, and I am working with the Fairies on a New Book of Fairy created Spells. To make all of this happen I need to take guided action plans. You are encouraged to do your own research. What is it you are trying to achieve? Ask the Universe the questions. “How do I make more money doing what I love”? “How do I find my soul mate”? “How do I start my hobby based business?” By asking the universe WILL respond. So ask the Fairies; say and do some research on what you are starting or growing from. In this month of April connect outdoors. Sit in quiet time; allow the inner you to speak. Listen to nature. She always has something to say, but you must stop to speak to her. What are you waiting for? Do this today! May is going to be fun month. The fairies say GET outside and get some exercise; take your daughters, your nieces, the little girls that surround your life and enjoy your fun spirited, inner youthful self we like and get lost along our paths. It is extremely important that in May you are exercising, and this is not about going to the gym; this is about you doing the exercise you love, dancing, yoga, meditation, walking, jogging and especially exercises you are doing outdoors. As you exercise your strength will be enhanced, you become stronger and less emotionally stressed and it is easier for you to take on the challenges presented by the Universe in order to

push you on your path. By June you will have a whole lot of work, BUT you will love it; you will be happy. By the middle of May you are relaxing… take the holiday you have been putting out or back, go to retreats, or bed and breakfast, do small cruises get out and about with your family and spouses. It is time for simple retreats. Holiday time. You need it; you deserve it. This is your perfect time to move forward. The Fairies say “WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?” This is it. There is no better time for you to be and do what you want. NOW!!!!! Enjoy this time, and as you sit by the pool, by the ocean, in those cabins you will receive messages from your fairies. Write them down because every time you read them you get new messages. Closing May is about you being in a whole new Life. You have given birth to your dreams, and everything is new. You are in a different setting, new homes, new jobs, all new and loving it! New marriages, relationships. Embrace the new that is coming as this is part of your divine path. Spring is the time your desires fully manifest, then blooms, and you can see your visualizations right in front of your life. Those of you whom had worked hard, those that did a lot of releasing at the closing of 2013, your desires are being fully manifested. All that you have asked for is coming true. For those of you who are now being your authentic self, who are now releasing, your manifestations will come in the winter months at the closing of 2014. The Fairies say “Worry not about tomorrow; release yesterday, and live today. As you start to stop and smell the roses act upon the things you love in your life; your dreams are then sent into the Divine’s unconditional energy and released right back into your life. Therefore you create your future by acknowledging and living your “NOW”. 62

Beautiful Flowers are in bloom. Go to local parks and a flower oasis to bring in that energy of Flower essence. Study the power of flowers; this is the time to for this area of study. It is no coincidence that you are here. Your fairies have showed you this for your spiritual growth. This is why you are connecting with this amazing magazine of UNITY. Now what Flowers call you when you pass by? Stop and say hello, or better yet go visit them, just like a relative; they too are your loved ones. We are in the months of growth as the flowers bloom, your soul does too, and the colors of each flower hold different aura energy, along with angel characteristics that go along each variety of flowers. Research the flowers. See what you learn. Which flower is more like you, and which ones fit your home? Welcome those flowers by gardening and dedicating a garden to your fairies and elemental friends. I would love to see your beautiful creations. Send them all please. By the end of June your debts are lifted, and you are FREE. All the old weight, from all debts, are released, and all, if new, are abundantly flowing. All your desires are well within reach. Go ahead and hold out your hands to receive them; this is the time to work. Act upon your passion. Everything you desire is an open energy to creating your dreams into a VIVID reality. What are you waiting for? Nothing is stopping you; it is now the time to act and receive.

Hope you have enjoyed what the fairies are messaging within the upcoming months; there are a lot of beautiful things blooming within our lives. Ask yourself, what am I doing today to create my desire filled life? See what thoughts come to you as these are the messages from your spiritual guides. Go ahead, write them down and re-read as you will always find messages within messages from the spiritual realm.

As the fairies reveal new messages, inspirations, and give thoughtful advice to you, feel free to send in your questions, growing up spiritually with fairy friends has been a blessing in my life if your little one seems like he/she doesn’t belong on this plane maybe you’re a parent to the new era of elementals. Ask the fairies your questions and read each month their wondrous messages. Daisy is an online psychic advisor, writer, and author of the book “The work from Home Muse,” which is free E-book.

I have always been a mother of sort, feeling responsible for the care of others, and always overwhelmed with guilt when it came to putting myself before anyone in need. That is probably why I chose a religious life, and just as probably, why I had to leave it. After years of neglecting myself, denying the fulfillment of my own needs, and putting myself always in the middle of relationships that were heading straight towards crisis, I realized that what I had chosen for myself was beyond my mending. As a religious person, I have always looked inward, but what I discovered after years of feeling unfulfilled was that I was looking at the wrong me. I was looking at an image of me that was completely created by me. It was, in essence, what I wanted to see, and more importantly, what I wanted others to see. As God revealed my true me through trials, struggles, pain, and loss, much the same as was revealed to St. John of the Cross in his Dark Night of the Soul, I came to realize what I had known right along: gold is made pure in fire. This powerful statement rested near to my heart. St John wrote, "In the evening of life, we will be judged on love alone." How incredibly fine, exquisitely simple that at this stage of my life my focus need only be centered in love.

centered in love. Recently while gazing out my living room window, watching a most glorious sunset over the bay, I understood fully that I embrace my own truth, and embrace the joy which comes with letting go of fear and letting in the voice of my own heart. I recalled a time when I wondered how many decades I would live. Today, I wonder how many days, hours and minutes as I choose to embrace them all as "gold made pure." The realization of this took many years, never conscious that I was learning, never seeing what simply lay before my eyes. Writing Voices of the Heart, my memoir, was part of a healing process, and a turning point in my understanding and acceptance of who I am as a person. I wrote it as a celebration of discovery, never knowing that I was writing something that would tenderly touch others, and become a source of healing for them as well. Anyone who has experienced loss or pain, and reads Voices of the Heart, walks with me in my words, and discovers the power of unconditional love. 68

Isn't it true, we are in this life together? It could not be any different. All the elements of life allow for unconditional love to grow. That is the alchemy of love. The birth of a life well lived begins when trusting love is at our core. This love is the pure gold, the original alchemy, and what is the essence of our creation. It took me some time to give myself permission to live in my truth. It was not difficult to understand where I came from. It was challenging to let that truth arise in me deeply. To live in my unique and purposeful truth I needed to embrace my life, not resist it. For me the window was looking in the eyes of my granddaughters. You'll look to that which inspires you. We'll end up understanding we are loved, and we are love. Linda was born on October 29, 1948 in Dover, New Hampshire.

Paw your Heart Out Shamshai the Siamese How Animal Communication & Animal Healing work to heal trauma with Sue Walsh Animal communication is very much interlinked with healing and vice versa. If a client requests a communication with their pet I usually follow it up with a healing treatment, as these are so vitally beneficial to the pet. Often we will find that the communication which led to the healing was for a reason – to uncover a deeper issue. In this instance I will then carry out a course of healing treatments for the animal. Below is a case study about a gorgeous Siamese called Shamshai and her carer Nolene, which shows us the positive change that can occur in an animal due to the benefits of animal communication and animal healing. Nolene asked me to carry out a communication with Shamshai because she was very nervous in the house and, although she had been with the family for some time, she wasn’t settling very easily. During the communication Shamshai showed me that she had been chased around the house (at her previous home) by the 7 year old son who thought it was very funny to see how fast she ran. Now that we knew what was causing Shamshai’s anxiety, I suggested a series of healing treatments to clear the trauma. In the write-up below I documented what occurred during each healing treatment. It was fascinating (and quite emotional) to see the transition in her from anxiety ridden to relaxed and serene!

Treatm ent 1 Shamshai took to healing like a duck to water. Healing as a modality suits her perfectly because she just loves to be close to Nolene, and she loves being touched. She clearly needed the healing because as soon as the energy began to flow she fell into a very deep sleep. She did not even twitch, and this indicated to me that her body was absorbing the energy and almost not willing to give any of it away. I noted that her solar plexus chakra drew a lot of energy, and this felt fitting because it reflected her nervous energy and disposition. I stopped giving her healing after 30 minutes, and this was not because she moved off; it seemed she would take healing as long as I was prepared to give it to her!

Treatm ent 2 As soon as I called Shamshai over to offer her healing, her ears perked up, she quickly came over to me and settled next to me. I worked on each of her chakras for 5 minutes so that I was certain that they were all balanced. My hands grew very warm at her base chakra especially; this indicated to me her need for security and grounding. Her heart chakra also took a lot of energy which was not surprising at all as she is very sensitive and seems to take things ‘to heart’. Her body twitched a number of times which I was very pleased with as this confirmed to me that she was ‘releasing’ emotional energy that was no 71

longer serving her, and that the healing energy was cleansing her energy system.

Treatm ent 3 I could definitely sense a change in Shamshai’s demeanour following each healing treatment, and the change in her character had been amazing! Nolene had commented on it and so had visitors. Shamshai had slowly but surely become a little bit more relaxed with each treatment, and this treatment was no different. Her chakras felt extremely well balanced, and, to be honest, it seemed that she was only taking healing because she loved it and enjoyed the wonderful relaxation. She yawned a number of times which indicated an emotional release, and after 20 minutes she jumped up and went off to sun herself in the garden.

running down them in a frantic panic. Shamshai is now very welcoming of visitors, and is very patient and calm… even around children! I hope that this case study has given you an idea of how effective animal communication can be in resolving trauma and behavioural issues in animals. Animal communication is wonderful because it gives your pet an opportunity to express their side of the story and thereby receive the healing that they may need in order to be happy and balanced once more.

Treatm ent 4 By now Shamshai seemed very used to the idea of healing, and quite liked it! She settled down quickly, and had developed a habit of closing her third eyelid so I could see how much she was enjoying the healing. She was communicating with me throughout the healing, and sharing with me how nice it felt and how far she felt she had come. She exuded a general sense of security and confidence which she hadn’t seemed capable of when I had first given her healing.

Conclusion: Nolene’s feedback following the healing sessions was that Shamshai seemed to be a lot more confident generally and much more self-assured. She felt strongly that the healing made a positive difference to Shamshai’s behaviour and that it was instrumental in the development of her selfassurance. Nolene felt that without the healing treatments, Shamshai would have been further behind in her process of settling. She is now able to pass Shamshai in the stairs without her
