Are you or someone you know being influenced by lost souls or dark energy? There’s a world-wide epidemic today that most people don’t know much about. It’s a very common occurrence, yet it’s misunderstood and usually overlooked. It’s called spirit possession. “The Exorcist” movie was an exaggeration of the phenomenon, and a depossession by a priest is only one way to deal with it. It’s also known as spirit attachment and demonic possession. It happens when lost (disembodied) souls and, or dark energy interfere with or even take control of someone.

Many, many people have told us about having the experiencenof repeatedly seeing the same number, or number pattern. Perhaps they look at the clock and see 11:34, then glance atna store receipt total of $11.34, then hear of a historicalnevent happening in the year 1134 BC, all in the same day. Or ...

Numbers have qualities, besides representing quantity. They have rich symbolic meaning and relate to every area of life, including money. Below we list each of the root numbers 1 through 9 along with a few details about how they relate to money, as we’ve empirically disce ed since 1992. For ...

How can you tell he’s cheating on you? No one wants to think their guy is cheating, but if you’re beginning to be suspicious, well, there there’s smoke there’s fire. Of course we psychics get a lot of calls about this – does he have another woman? Is he cheating on me? I haven’t seen him in ...

Have you ever felt inexplicably angry, sad, exhausted, or otherwise not yourself? Ever experienced a dramatic personality change while under the influence of alcohol? It’s possible that those feelings weren’t you, but the affect of dark or other-dimensional energy. Based upon our empirical research, we believe it’s possible for lost souls, defined as those which have not yet gone to the Light after their physical bodies have died, to intrude in your everyday affairs, even to the point of dramatically influencing your behavior.

The science of numerology supports the notion thatnaddress numbers of buildings have great symbolicnmeaning. First, you must consider that the address and unitnnumbers of residences or offices don’t make thingsnhappen, nor do they hold direct power over anything. The application of ...

There is a profound electrical nature within our bodies in which senses, feelings, emotions, and instinctive responses are electrically transmitted instantly along the nerves to the brain. These electrical messages are constantly sent throughout the body, keeping us not only informed of personal and environmental conditions, but they are also the electrical systems that are vital to our physical health. When the energy stops flowing, we die.

Avoid the astrology trap of using the Sidereal zodiac exclusively (or practitioners who do) or risk vast inaccuracies. You’ve always thought that you had a Sagittarius Sun sign, but then you’re confused when a friend shows you a “cooler” form of astrology, one which totally changes what you thought you knew about your basic natal chart.

Sometimes, we can feel overwhelmed by life, feeling as though small problems are bigger than they should be or that we lose control of ourselves and the outcomes we wish to achieve. Whether it’s based on a bad day or a bad year, the solutions are always easier than they seem and yet we fail to see them so clearly. We often think deeply about the problems we face, try to understand its source or seek others for help and support. But what if you were told that these solutions were the wrong approach to solving the struggles we encounter?

Don’t worry that you were a bad person in past lives if younhave one or more of the numbers 13, 14, 16, and 19 in keynpositions in your numerology charts. These numbers aren“Karmic Debt Numbers.” Everyone has had their share ofnlifetimes when they were not so nice. Karmic Debt numbersnrelate ...

Fear can be a very debilitating emotion. We use it instinctively to keep us from perceived dangers but sometimes exaggerate the feeling and attribute it to situations in which fear should not be an issue. When fear becomes overwhelming it can negatively affect our emotional state, our physical condition, and our psychological well being. Thoughts spiral around themselves and alter our perception, rationality, and comprehension, limiting our expectations, reducing our productivity, augmenting the complexity of problems, and impeding our ability to survive.

Could the U.S. and the rest of the world be headed for a dire financial crisis, one that could even dwarf the most recent economic downturn, which is considered to be the worst since the great depression?

The root numbers 1-9 each symbolize unique qualities and are expressed in various forms, including balanced, over-balanced, and under-balanced energy. The specific form of the number expressed depends on the symbolic support or mitigation of the other hundreds of considerations in the comprehensive personality and timing numerology charts. Let’s say a person has a 9 Life Path (a popular modern numerology indicator, which is the sum total of the full date of birth reduced to a single digit). The expression of that one single factor hinges on the collective energy of the others.

First let me explain what I mean by “emotional terrorism.” When you have a relationship, at home or at work, with a person who’s constantly humiliating you, harassing you, pressuring on you, taking pleasure in your pain, saying negative things about you or making you feel worthless, then you ...

May 7, 2003. I remember that day well, because it was the day on which my life changed, the day that launched me on the path to writing the book Your Soul’s Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born (www.yoursoulsplan.com). I was 40 at the time, working as a self-employed marketing and communications consultant and feeling profoundly unfulfilled with my life. I often had the feeling that if I were to fall off the face of the Earth, none of my clients would notice. They would simply plug someone else into my role and continue along.

As I was driving down the road with my 16 year old son I noticed him more glum than usual. "What's up?" I ventured. "I just don't know what to do with my life," he replied. "I don't know what I could possibly do to make a living that I would be good at." " You'll spend most of your adult life at work," I advised, "so do something you love." "I don't know what that is. I don't know what I like to do that I could make a living at."

Several years ago I was torn. I was going through a period where I wasn’t sure what I wanted, but I knew it wasn’t the life that I had. I was unhappy in my work. My love life wasn’t what I wanted it to be (as I was single). And there were more experiences, and even toys that I wanted in my life. But I wasn’t sure exactly what to do about all that. I took a pad and paper and went to my favorite spot in Tallahassee, Lake Ella. I found a quiet place to sit and write, and I just started writing. I wrote down exactly what I wanted to have as a life.

John Locke once believed that the human conscious mind is like a blank slate (tabula rasa) at birth and all our knowledge is essentially an accumulated sum of experiences and learned concepts.

Sometimes, we can feel overwhelmed by life, feeling as though small problems are bigger than they should be or that we lose control of ourselves and the outcomes we wish to achieve. Whether it’s based on a bad day or a bad year, the solutions are always easier than they seem and yet we fail to ...

Avoid this trap at all costs: Denying the fact that innate challenges and harsh realities of life exist in various and unique forms for everyone, many of which are unalterable, and instead exclusively embracing frivolous renderings of astrology, number mysticism, palmistry or other ancient disciplines that include warped philosophies which promise you the moon. This course of action is ultimately detrimental to your best interest because it can lead to grave disappointment, and wasted time and money.

If we don't trust in our capacity to deal with life as it comes at us, we end up feeling in a state of perpetual fear and worry. We try to control life through perfectionism, making sure everything is just-so, and thus avoid any form of mistake. Unfortunately, life has its ways of throwing its twists and turns at us and when we do make a mistake we feel unprepared to handle it. We take on too much because we always compare ourselves with what everyone else is doing, we do what we think people want us to do, and we’re constantly worries about what others may think.

Self-devotion is the feeling of ardent love that drives commitment and dedication to a purpose related to self-betterment. Though some people may associate this with egotism and self-centeredness when expressed in an extreme form, self-devotion in the right dose can be a useful tool of self-growth, self-development, personal success and achievement. So how does one become self-devoted? Begin by understanding who you are. Your self-image, self-esteem, body image, and sense of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being must be defined in its positive yet natural form.

Cosmic debris is everywhere, and if you’re not careful and don’t protect yourself, it can interfere with your life and cause havoc.

Subliminal technology involves audio or visual suggestions that your mind perceives at a subconscious level, but not at a conscious level. Remember, your subconscious takes in every detail of your environment, even the ones you can’t consciously perceive; everything you’ve ever sensed, seen or ...

The law of attraction dictates that you attract that nwhich you focus on. But this spiritual law is onlynone piece of the puzzle. You must take intonconsideration other, equally important spiritualnlaws, some of which transcend the law ofnattraction. These findings, our interpretation below of ...

Black magic is defined as the misuse of spiritual energy including harming another person or attempting to get someone to act in accordance with your desires, especially if your desires oppose theirs. In our view, spiritual power is to be used only for good. The moment you try to control or manipulate another person, you step over the line and incur negative karma. Below we list 3 controversial examples of black magic.

How can I communicate with loved ones who have crossed over, you ask? The loss of a loved one is always difficult. It’s only natural to want to contact them and continue communication. We believe loved ones who cross over do check in with those they left behind from time to time, and they are ...

When difficult or traumatic experiences occur in our lives, we naturally wonder, “Why did this happen? What does it mean?” Often, such experiences may appear not to have any particular meaning; they may seem to be nothing more than purposeless suffering. Yet, in my years as a spiritual author and teacher, I have found that not only are our greatest challenges rich with meaning and purpose, but also that very often we ourselves planned those experiences before we were born.

Human Relationships can be enlightening and supporting but can also cause drama and trauma. This is also and especially the case of male-female relationships. You can see such a relationship as a special kind of interaction where two different physiologies and two different biological strategies meet. They come from a different origin and they aim at a different target but meet at a crossroad.

It's always a good idea to remember to spiritually protect yourself. Just as there is filth in the physical world, spiritual debris is everywhere.

One should never judge homeless people and stereotype them as unfit to society. They are real people with vibrant hearts and yearning souls like the rest of us. Even though, many sacrifice their pride to remind society of its indignity, some better yet, are invisible spirits and guides on our shoulders protecting us. That is why, I believe we can fly. Over the course of nearly one year, a homeless lady stood every Friday and Saturday night at the corner intersection of the R

If you were born on the 7th, unfortunately, it doesn’t meannyou’re lucky. The number 7 on a numerology personality orncyclical timing level is most often associated with humiliation,nfear, delays, anxiety, solitude, exhaustive self-examination,nfall from grace, lowered physical vitality, ...

Rather than following our conscious Willpower, which is mostly made up of learned behaviours, memes, and an incomplete view of the world, we could learn to read what’s around us as messages from the subconscious, as messages that we give ourselves indirectly through the power of symbols. Our life is a real re-enactment of our internal state and whatever we experience around us is a play made of slides that we possess inside our subconscious projector or operative system.

Goals are a crucial factor for achievement and success. They are the general guidelines we use to maintain focus in our work and persist enthusiastically in what we do. They are usually long-term ambitions with global visions and are composed of smaller objectives we aim for to reach the goals we set for ourselves. Objectives, then, are the strategies and specified steps we need to take to achieve what we desire. These can range from small intentions of what needs to be accomplished in the next hour to long-term projects. To regain a clear aim, try using a mind map.

One of the things that keeps us from moving forward in our lives is our tendency to hold on to things that no longer serve a purpose. This can be in any aspect of life--certain activities, thoughts, feelings such as worry, relationships, jobs, objects, your past.

One of the most pervasive feelings that stops people from stepping up to living their highest calling--their Divine Purpose--is the feeling that what they have to offer the world is not of value. We are our own worst critics, and as we look at what those who have come before us have accomplished, we wonder how we could do it or say it any differently. Thoughts like, “Who am I to be doing this?” or “Who would ever want to hear what I have to say (do business with me, utilize my services--you fill in the blank for yourself),” come up when we think of putting ourselves out in the world.

We believe everyone has at least one spirit guide whose main role is to encourage you to make the most appropriate choices in order to learn, grow and accomplish the goals you inca ated for this time. But sometimes when life isn’t going well, it may seem like you’re severely lacking in spiritual assistance. Why didn’t your guides help you avoid a that terrible situation? Couldn’t they have warned you about that person who you had no idea was a secret enemy? Is it possible that your guide took a leave of absence? Might they be upset with you for something you did?

Numbers symbolize quantity. Numbers also symbolize qualities, as through number symbolism, better known as numerology. The number 11 is one of the most popular topics in basic numerology due to the unique energy it represents. Below are ten things you need to know about the number 11.

A writer wrote about Immorality, "It is not common that you will find it. It is not popular if you say it. People do not believe it. A preacher is criticized if he reminds you of it" Despite this perception, the fact remains that Immorality has entered into the Church. How do we tackle and ...

"Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of CHOICE; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved." (William Jennings Bryan) From the time we wake up and decide whether or not to take those extra minutes of sleep, our waking day is constantly spent making choices. Every choice can lead to either a road of success or a path of mediocrity and it is our responsibility to be mindful of the choices we make. To think that we can drift along the sea of life is erroneous for even the decision not to decide is a choice that was made.

This article is a continuation of a previous one entitled “You Are Who You Frequent” in which the focus was directed to overcoming one’s negative habits by changing or reformatting a social group. Your social network is a sum of the members of your family and the people with whom you work, live, share activities and conversations, enjoy free time, etc. Without necessarily being aware of it, these are the everyday models you use as social references, belief orientations, standards of achievement, and general comparisons.

The well-being or quality of life of a population is an important concern in economics and political science. It is measured by many social and economic factors. A large part is standard of living, the amount of money and access to goods and services that a person has; these numbers are fairly easily measured. Others like freedom, happiness, art, environmental health, and innovation are far harder to measure. This has created an inevitable imbalance as programs and policies a

Dealing with idiots is hard. Its one of the hardest areas of my life. Now, before we go any further, yes I realize that seeing someone as an idiot is part of the problem. I am using my phrasing the way I am just because we can all identify with the sentiment. Its has more a draw than “dealing with difficult people”. That’s not what goes through our mind in the moment. What goes through our mind is, “this person’s an idot”. At least, that’s what goes through my mind more often tha I’d like to admit. Its frustrating in part because I know better.

Both ancient wisdom and modern research has shown that life is driven by an energy that is similar to electrostatic fields, yet far more complex (in pulsation, but not in nature), and this is essentially observable in every natural process. Professor Harold Saxton Burr quoted in his book that “Electricity is the way nature behaves” and by discovering that all living things are shaped by electro-dynamic fields, which could be measured and mapped with standard voltmeters, he coined the term “fields of life,” or L-fields, as the basic blueprints of all life on this planet.

We spend so much of our time making sure things work out well for ourselves and do this by planning, organizing, and hoping for good outcomes. However, success is not related to perfection, driving hard towards a single goal, or wearing one’s self thin with endless efforts. The first and most important step to anyone’s personal victory is to use the mind as the means to achieve: think positively. There are many articles available that refer to various methods with which positive thinking strategies can be developed and used to reach for one’s goals.

This is the time of year when many of you have dropped the last child off at college. Many feelings are no doubt swirling around inside you. You may feel proud of your child and excited about the new possibilities that await him or her. You may also be feeling anxious about your child's adjustment and yours. While this is not, by any means, the end of your relationship, this is a change in the nature of that relationship, so it is a bittersweet time. I remember my own feelings as I dropped my one and only child off at school.

Predictive modern astrology and numerology commonly include transits (e.g., transiting Satu in Virgo as we type this), secondary progressions, Universal Year (2009), solar return charts, and other basic cyclical timing methods that, by themselves, limit respectable levels of accuracy unless you have consistently strong psychic ability and use the esoteric sciences as touchstones only. We've witnessed it over and over: Modern-method-favoring astrologers shroud their avoidance of predicting personal fate in oh-so-creative ballads, even pinning fate against free will ("Free will prevails if

A happy, monogamous, life-long, traditional marriage is almost universally desired, yet has been proven time and time again through high divorce and infidelity rates and legions of unhappy couples to be, in most cases, an idealistic, unrealistic notion trumped by the reality of human nature. Married and happy? Consider yourself fortunate. Married and unhappy? We have compassion for you. Married and cheating?

In the 1980s we believed that anything was possible for anyone involving love relationships.

Many experts will provide various ways for people to think, act and speak positively about themselves as a form of auto-suggestion. If you walk the walk and talk the talk you become what you put out. Express positivity and you will feel good about yourself and a constant upward cycle. However, there’s another aspect that is almost as important to self-talk in being able to reach productive positivity and that is to be aware of suggestions from the surroundings.

One of the biggest blockages people face in moving forward with living according to their passions and purpose is belief, both conscious and subconscious. Our beliefs determine what we attract and what we allow ourselves to receive in life. When we start from a place of limiting or flawed premises it will hold us back from achieving our goals and desires. Common limiting beliefs include things like: “I’m too old to start something new.” “You can only get what you want by working hard and struggling.” “Only the few really talented people achieve what they want.”r

The origin of most conflicts, whether between couples, colleagues or friends, stems from the conviction that each party feels he/she is “right.” One’s needs, values and interests thus differ from the other to the point that each party will try to persuade the other to agree with what one believes to be true. This then generates a heated debate in which each side is presented and the argument will continue to rise unless one of two things occurs: one person backs down and admits defeat (“You’re right, I’m wrong. Sorry.”); or a negotiation is sought for conciliation.

On your quest for spiritual truth, the last thing you need is misinformation. Unfortunately, today’s New Age market is full of dead ends. We list below the definitions of key spiritual terms, according to our empirical research since the 1980s, to help you cut through the cosmic debris and follow the most authentic spiritual path possible. Fate: Here’s a word that is often distorted beyond recognition. It actually means the same as destiny. You’ve likely heard the phrase, “You can’t cheat fate.” We can’t emphasize enough how true we’ve found this to be, always.

In a previously article entitled “You Are Where You Live” the focus was on bettering one’s self by bettering one’s environment. This article is a continuation of that first one with an added insight on how to make use of the social and cultural conditions that make up one’s society and community. Social conditioning is one of the most influential ways of learning, through which we are encouraged to abide by certain rules of conduct and thus directly and indirectly learn how to behave.

Many of the morals and principles that we live by throughout our life were ingrained in us by our parents when we were young. Among other things, parents are largely responsible for building the character of their children. They are our role models. Children are sponges—they absorb all that they see, hear, and feel. When I was a child my mother used to tell me that, although she was a good and honest person and wanted me to be the same, it didn’t pay to be that way. She said

Bible Text: Philippians 3: 8-14 INTRODUCTION One of the common worry of man is a desire to explore what they are truly meant to do with their life. Most of us have a sense that there is a better, more meaningful way to live our lives, but we can’t seem to find it by ourselves. We carry on ...

What's Your Purpose? There are two ways of looking at what motivates us in life: - day to day necessity rn- the big picture.

Although love life connections seldom offer pure romantic fantasy, they do offer fantastic opportunities for emotional and spiritual growth, inevitably drawing to the surface anything but bliss and your romantic expectations. Almost everyone wants to be in love and be loved, but unfortunately, the soul mate concept is greatly misunderstood.

Is it possible to lose your psychic ability? We’ve been meditating and exercising our psychic muscles for years, and we’ve found certain things can strengthen or weaken psychic ability. Everyone has some degree of psychic ability, whether you want to call it your gut feeling, intuition, or guidance from above. We don’t think it’s possible to ever permanently lose what you were born with (we consider your unique talents abilities developed over lifetimes, not “gifts”--nobody gave them to you). Many things can interfere with psychic abilities, including the following:

Your entourage is a profound definition of who you are and can be defined in two general ways. The first is based on your geographical environment in which your physical surroundings, your manner of living, and your general adaptation are considered. The second is based on the social group with whom you chose to or have to spend your time. In this article, we will focus on the latter, leaving the first for its own editorial (see “You Are Where You Live”). Group dynamics are complex yet predictable in that they are ever-changing and unique in every circumstance.

According to Martha Stout, PhD, author of The Sociopath Next Door, about one in 25 individuals is a sociopath. A sociopath is someone who lacks a sense of moral responsibility. They’re often very charming and will look you in the eye and smile, be your friend, then later when you’re not around, do whatever they can to get what they want or even intentionally hurt you for their own pleasure. They have no conscience. Traits of a Sociopath

Most often, people identify with their occupation and respond to the questio “who am I?” with titles such as a doctor, a referee, a cook, or whatever they do most throughout the day. It is important to understand that this is not who we are but what we do, yet most of us are unable to provide any other answer than the description of our profession or role in life. On the same line, many will also provide a label for themselves based on national, cultural or religious identification such as an American, Chinese, Catholic, Protestant, Caucasian, etc.

Have your ever been hurt by someone? Has anyone ever caused serious injury to you either emotionally, mentally or physically? Are you or any of your family member a victim of a heinous crime? nnYou are not alone. At some point of our lives, we had experienced hurt caused by our loved ones, friends, and even people whom we are not acquainted with. Although some have found a way to forgive their offenders but many of us are still trapped in brokenness and forgiveness seems to b

Do you remember being a child and asking your teacher or parent why you had to learn something that you'd never use in life? A child's world is small; their limited perspective is based on the quality of love they receive, what their senses tell them, and what they have experienced in their young life. Busy playing, experimenting with interpersonal relationships, and discovering how the world works, a child could care less what their life purpose is. We are granted seventee

The inte et has been a wonderful thing, enabling information sharing and a host of other activities to effortlessly take place. However, like all good things, the inte et has a downside – one that can ruin lives and destroy families. It’s called Inte et Addiction.

“To be a star, you must shine your own light, follow your own path, and don't worry about the darkness, for that is when the stars shine brightest”rn~Unknownrn rnSuccess surely doesn't happen overnight.

We often have an idea in our minds, a goal to achieve, an aim to look forward to. But somewhere along the way we loose track of where we were going and leave our targets unattained or barely grazed. How can one reach the desired objective and know that success and achievement are possible regardless of the circumstances under which we engage our journey? Envision A crystal clear and personally undeniable vision is an essential first step. Without knowing exactly what is to be obtained, there is no way of knowing whether or not the task has been accomplished.

Many experts will provide various ways for people to think, act and speak positively about themselves as a form of auto-suggestion. If you walk the walk and talk the talk you become what you put out. Express positivity and you will feel good about yourself and a constant upward cycle. However, there’s another aspect that is almost as important to self-talk in being able to reach productive positivity and that is to be aware of suggestions from the surroundings.

A very conce ed mother recently wrote to us because she had discovered that her 17 year-old son was smoking pot. She was worried about addiction and asked us what we would do in her situation to help him realize the spiritual and other consequences of his choices. Even though we intuitively felt that her son didn't have a problem, seemingly innocuous experimentation can easily lead to a destructive habit or addiction.

There may have been a lot of things you got away with as a kid. But now you know better, we hope. If you're like most people, you live your life aligned with the expectations of society, but is everything you abide by really for your own good? Laws, regulations, rules, and more rules. But are they all legitimate from the standpoint of karma, freedom, and personal responsibility? In your spiritual quest, maybe you've asked yourself, "What is acceptable behavior in a karmic sense? What won't make me gain negative karma?"

Imagine, an astrologer (who is widely known and seen as an “authority” in modern astrology circles) tells you, “You have potential to be a famous actor. But if you don’t strive to become one in the right ways, you’ll wallow in obscurity.” Translation: that astrologer is hedging his bets and making his refusal or inability to do accurate assessment of personal fate your problem, unfortunately. No legitimate professional in this field boasts 100% accuracy.

How does one discover their true purpose in life? How do you know that you even have a purpose? How do you know you’re not just BS-ing yourself? Of course you have a purpose. You’ve just been conditioned to ignore the internal screaming occurring within yourself, and then label that as being “normal”. We’re taught to label emotional states like complacency, apathy, and depression as “normal”. That’s just the way life is, kids. Sorry you can’t cope with how b

I believe that often during the week, month and year we are faced with difficult days. We have dreams and we set goals to meet that will ensure we are heading out on the right path to see that dream come to fruition. But then we have one of those difficult days and find ourselves discouraged. How do we learn to handle these difficult days? How do others encourage ourselves to stay on track? How can we find the motivation to continue? What resources are available?r

Many generations ago, marriage was about survival, property, money, securing family dynasties, and pragmatism, not love or sexual intimacy.

The word “entourage” comes from the French word “entourer”, referring to the verb “to surround”, or “entour”, meaning “the surrounding”. In the English language, entourage is defined in two ways. The most common use of the term is the social group, friends, peers or associates with whom you spend your time. The less known definition is that of the geographical and physical environment in which your neighbourhood, your manner of living, and your general surroundings are considered.

Too often we get caught up in the judgments of others. We put too much emphasis or importance on what other people think of us, and we become focused on tending to their perceptions in order to control a given situation. In the worst cases we engage in a constant battle to control what people think, a process known as image management. There’s nothing wrong with this—most businesses and politicians do it to perpetuate or maintain a public image, and ordinary people like you and me do it as well.

It is not uncommon for one to feel mentally blocked, void of ideas, motivation or insight. Sometimes the mind needs a little break and falls into a state of rest as the brain reprocesses the data it has accumulated. But should this down period last too long, it could be an indication of falling into a rut. If it’s new inspiration you’re looking for, try some of these strategies to help you get over the initial hump. Seek New Experiences: If the same habits, actions or routines are always performed then it is not likely that you embrace novelty and thus novelty will not embrace you.

As Henry David Thoreau famously said, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.” He was explaining how most people are slaves to their work and to those who employ them. They become resigned to this state of affairs which Thoreau called “confirmed desperation.”
