The OBE is a tool that can be used to advance personal growth, self-confidence and self-awareness, by allowing us to have direct personal experiences by the development of our capacities, and to address the most fundamental questions of life such as 'what is the purpose of my life?’ The OBE is not a dream but a real event in which we can consciously travel to other realms, visit places, meet people, and expand our knowledge of non-physical dimensions. Over 25 techniques to produce OBEs and improve bioenergetic control are taught and practiced in the entire CDP course. The IAC (International Academy of Consciousness) is a non-profit worldwide organization dedicated to the study of consciousness, OBEs, near-death experiences and paranormal phenomena.

New Beginnings --As told by Marina Rose

re you being dragged down in a negative direction against your will? Are people around you bringing you down? Are you feeling overwhelmed by the adverse negativity of the worldwide group conscious?

Most people want to fit in—However, nowadays being a part of the status quo isn’t such a great idea. Do you really want to be part of the group of people who have recently had their homes foreclosed, or to join those who are unemployed because of the state of our economy? The answer is: you don’t have to. We will soon have a new president in the White House, one who espouses the ideal of “Yes We Can.” I am here to tell you, “Yes We Can” starts with you: /your/ cells, and /your/ DNA and the process begins with reprogramming /your/ brain for success. Allow yourself to be the master of your mind, instead of consenting to your mind mastering you. I observe people sitting back, complacently accepting things that they are losing: their homes, their jobs, their cars, their lifestyles. It’s as if they are brainwashed by a powerful nullifying mechanism and they give up and give everything away without a fight. There was and there still is worldwide campaign “War Against Drugs”, where is there a campaign “War Against Negative Thinking and Apathy?” Imagine being 100 % in power of your self, self-reliant, and self-responsible. Imagine being able to manifest anything you ever wanted and know that it is possible, that you deserve it, you are worthy of it and that it’s safe for you to have it. Imagine a life full of personal power and personal abundance. One of financial, emotional, physical, and spiritual wealth. Now, imagine that all of this is achievable through the simple act of transforming our subconscious beliefs. This is the role of DNA/Theta Core Belief Reprogramming and DNA Theta Healing. DNA Theta Core Belief Reprogramming and DNA Theta Healing, developed by Vianna Stibal, are healing arts modalities that allow the practitioner to facilitate

Empower your life with a Power Shift

instant changes in a client’s DNA on a cellular level. It affects the body physically, mentally, emotionally, psychologically, physiologically, and spiritually. The beliefs are held on four levels: core beliefs, genetic beliefs, history beliefs and soul level. Understanding how these multi-level belief systems affect the quality of our lives is at the core of what DNA/Theta Core Belief Reprogramming and DNA Theta Healing is all about.

Each of us creates everything in our lives. We draw people and experiences to us based on our belief systems. We acquire beliefs from the collective consciousness, the groups and societies we live in, and from our history and heritage. The majority of these are subconscious, but ultimately they dictate our experiences and create our lives. These beliefs function like computer programs, creating wealth or poverty, sickness or health, success or failure, loneliness or interconnectedness. Everything is our creation. So many people walk around and they are not consciously aware of their own beliefs. They may be walking around and carrying beliefs that do not belong to them. These beliefs have been passed down through their parents and ancestors. These beliefs are then held on a genetic level. You can see how this might limit us! These beliefs are passed down to us in our DNA. We are born with some beliefs and we haven’t been given the choice of getting rid of

them until now —with DNA/Theta Core Belief Reprogramming and DNA Theta Healing. The beliefs we hold are almost entirely subconscious. Some beliefs are formed based on our experiences: We touch fire. It burns us. We form the belief that fire burns, and this serves us. However, not all beliefs serve us. Perhaps an individual grows up in a home with two very financially successful parents, and both are unhappy. At the age of four, he decides that financial success makes people unhappy. This belief may not serve him as he struggles and fails to achieve what he could create for himself at 30 or 40 years old. In order for this person to be able to manifest and have abundance in their lives, we would have to change their beliefs about finance, and give them the new belief that it’s safe and good for this person to have financial success in their life. We would want to ensure that this person knows what it feels like to have financial success, and feel safe and happy simultaneously. We would also want to ensure that this person will attract the right person to them as their life partner: someone who will support their new belief and vision of having financial success, being happy and feeling safe. This is where the person consciously does their homework, and describes with great detail and thought what they would want from their life partner. Within the DNA Theta Healing session, we create the person’s life, their future life partner, as well as

.....DNA Theta Healing work on any other issues that may come up. We would want to ensure that the person would have strong boundaries and accountability in their life in order to keep the integrity of their new belief and vision for their future self. DNA Theta Healing can reprogram your brain, so you can be whatever you want to be. You can enjoy success and wealth during a time when everyone else in the world is suffering from the economy. It is all about the state of your brain, and what your beliefs are. You are what you believe. With DNA Theta Core Belief Reprogramming and DNA Theta Healing you can choose your beliefs and consciously create your life the way you want it to be. You can heal physical ailments, and reprogram yourself for abundance, success, love, happiness and anything else you can imagine. So…what will you create?”

You already know this is a very exciting time in the world: new chakras have been developed in our energy systems, a 13th zodiac sign has been discovered, crystal children and indigo children are now in the world, ‘what the bleep’ is old news and ‘manifesting’ is a regular household word. If you have chosen to reincarnate into the world now-you have special opportunities to heal your life. But did you know that when you heal your life, you are also healing the lives of all those in your ancestry that came before you? Imagine this image: if you are a woman, standing behind you is a long, long line of women who were born before you in your family. For men, imagine the line is all the men who were born before you. In spirit form a part of their soul is waiting to heal. Each soul did the best they could to complete the mission of their soul’s purpose. Some succeeded and some did not. If you have ever had a past life regression you know that during your life’s review you can see if you have completed your soul’s work for that lifetime and what, if anything, is left undone. These incomplete assignments can and sometimes do show up in future lifetimes creating feelings of discontent, imbalance and pain. While there are many explanations across many modalities as to why our lives are not the way we feel they should be, ancestral/soul wounds can and should be included among the reasons. As our world quickens and makes its way towards 2012 we can look forward to major and profound shifts; an even deeper understanding of the ancient ways and mysteries, better communication with others, longer lives, healthier bodies…the list goes on. Our world will accelerate on all levels and we are preparing now for this long awaited loving shift of our energy. One of the tools to use now to assist during this transformation is past-life and ancestral healing. In an effort to clear out old useless patterns and begin creating lives that blossom with joy it is suggested that we release old karmic debris and heal the soul’s wounds.

Our soul and our physical lives have a lineage, and these past selves and ancestors await our strength, courage and vision to bring them forward and set them free. The Lotus is a symbol of the sun, of creation and rebirth, because at night the flower closes and sinks underwater, and at dawn it rises and opens again. This beautiful flower is viewed as a symbol of spiritual enfoldment; the lotus has its roots in earthly mud, but as it grows upward in aspiration toward the sky - its petals open to receive. The lotus is my totem flower, always reminding me to rise from the mud and reach for the stars…and the stars are a spectacular reminder to me that we came from them once, in a feverish, dramatic explosion and landed here, on this earthstar, to fulfill the sacred work of our soul; healing as above and so below.

Renée Starr, CHT, takes hypnotherapy to a new depth with her unique & powerful techniques: Former proprietress of ALKIMI, she is a certiﬁed hypnotherapist, certiﬁed past life regression counselor, crystal/pyramid energy healer, clairvoyant medium & reader, intuitive spiritual counselor & offers her services, classes & retreats in the US & throughout the world.

Mystical Shopping Possibilities T

he Mystic Journey Bookstore on Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach is one-of-akind. From singing bowls, to quartz spheres, the second you enter; you can tell that there are more than simply books on the shelves. As owner Jeff Segal says, “there really aren’t too many places like this in LA.” “I wanted to put together this store as a center to the community,” states Segal, a part-time lawyer and impasto painter. His brainchild has become just that. Locals are excited about the new spot and look forward to the events and specialized products Jeff is introducing to the alternative community in Venice. “I hope this will become a place where community members can conduct their holistic workshops.” Some of his ideas for the future include tarot card readers, local artists, and I-Ching specialists. Formerly a full time lawyer, Segal was recently diagnosed with cancer, and it helped him to realize what pursuits truly brought him bliss in life. When asked whether this new business was more fulfilling than his previous law practice, he chuckled. “You could say that, just a little.” Actually, he is more excited than anybody else about the opening of the store. He had always been interested in his impasto painting, a textured style in which Segal paints colorful, archetypal designs, but his day-to-day job never had the pull that he feels from Mystic Journey. “I really have my passion back,” Segal states calmly, “I’ve expanded my experience on a spiritual path.” Stop in to see the statues, smell the incense, and listen to the most

beautiful chimes on the planet; all this next to shelves of best sellers, earth conscious titles, and new age parenting technique books. The store has helped Segal in so many ways; the possibilities for the customers are just as limitless. --SB The Mystic Journey Bookstore at 1319 Abbot Kinney Blvd., Venice. Open from 10 am to 10 pm Sunday to Thursday, and 10 am to 11 pm Friday and Saturday, 310-399-7070.

Altars Incense Singing Bowls Chimes Talismans Crystals Oils ...

hose interested in spiritual development may want to check out Los Angeles’ newly opened Mystic’s Altar. Though the store just opened its doors to the public on October 28, owner Deseret Tavares can claim life-long connection to the holistic community. She elucidates, “I was raised in

an environment that valued the homeopathic and spiritual remedies.” For the past 15 years, Tavares has been professionally involved in alternative solutions and study of the tarot, garnering the reputation of a “celebrity psychic,” and reading for the likes of Halle Berry and Steven Bauer. Tavares describes the process of opening the shop as “a long journey,” but ultimately is incredibly enthusiastic about providing the metaphysical community with a new platform and resource. Though The Mystic’s Altar boasts a plethora of materials—oils, crystals, talismans and more—Tavares explains the store isn’t just about product, it’s about personal growth. The initial inspiration for the store stemmed from repeated observation of individuals taken advantage of under the guise of the spiritual community. She says, “our purpose is to teach, so that instead of relying on other people to solve their problems, we can provide our clients with the tools for them to do it themselves.” In the spirit of education, The Mystic’s Altar will host a variety of workshops; tarot, meditation, astrology, energy and candle classes are all planned for the future. Tavares elaborates, “Unlike a lot of different stores, my main focus is to help people see what is going on with their life so that they can learn how to reach a solution on their own. Mystic’s Altar has an opportunity to change things and make a difference.” --RH The Mystic’s Altar is open Monday through Saturday, 11-8, located at 1646 Westwood Boulevard, Los Angeles 90024, 310-446-9100.

The way of our natural world is about cycles, surrender and harmony and we have always yearned to know the mysteries behind the ways of nature and so have studied the ways of the animals to learn. This longing to know has inspired us to hide behind jaguar’s humid mask and slip under bear’s heavy cloak and to dance in smoky circles around the fire, dizzy and thrilled to be in an animals’ skin making animal sounds. We recognize deep in our own animal souls that we can fly and slither and crawl, and we long to do so. Somehow, playing the animal takes us back to our beginnings. Perhaps it is that animals do not dwell on the past nor do they live in the future. They are entirely in the present and that fascinates us. In Goddess teachings the animal has always walked alongside Her; Isis spreads her impressive golden vulture wings wide on the dusty tomb walls of the pyramids, Yemayah gently picks the starfish from her damp, sea salty hair and Freya walks quietly through the night forest with her lithe cats mewling hungrily at her feet. And oldest one called Neith weaves her fateful fabric silently with she-cobra at her sandaled feet. The Goddess was there at the beginning when God blew the world into existence with a fiery wind. She was there to witness and to sing soft, cool, moist breezes onto the embers of our earliest days, healing our earliest wounds. She was there and the animals were there with her swimming in the cooling ooze. While many animals speak the knowledge of beginnings, Snakemother is long-standing and she offers her wisdom words from the shadows of the tall parched grasses. She waits for us in the desert dawn and is patient with us as she warms her bones on a rock in the hot sun. Her laughter is papery

when she spies us with her ancient eyes and she rattles her tail in greeting. She is old and dry and she has seen the first days, when the world was young and the rainbows were plentiful. How we long for her mysteries and to hear the tales of our past. For snake knew Lillith’s sultry anger in the cool of a desert night, and she knew Eve’s open joy when the sun shined on her bare body and she assisted great Isis in her desperate, deceptive lie with Ra. Snake is risk and rhythm, earth and sky and her undulations murmur permission when we want to move our hips and dance. Her words whisper, her words hiss. Her words rustle like the fallen leaves she writhes in. You may feel her energies when you are about to start new things, for she is the totem symbol of the beginning, the uroborus. She unites within herself, swallowing her own tail thus embracing her duality; the feminine and the masculine. She is born over and over again and acting as psychic midwife she teaches us this process. Hypnotically she speaks a message for our creation times;

Look how your skin no longer fits you. Come and rest with me in the shade of this splendid world tree whose golden apples will refresh you. Stay with me while you shed your former, rigid skin, release what is no longer necessary and fashion yourself anew. This rebirthing struggle will be fruitful and it will soon pass, for all things do. Beginning is a difficult cord to hold as you must first let go of the end. And just before the spell is broken we stare into her golden, strange eyes as she coils herself away from us, leaving us alone on the road but facing in the right direction.
