An Introduction To Usui Reiki

Shamanistic Healing

An Introduction

Our own thought patterns effect the health of our body. Each emotional thought pattern is really an underlying “cause” of a physical illness. In other words, how you think, creates how you feel. This concept has been the basis of Shamanistic healing modalities around the world. It’s not new, and it’s not unique. But it’s also not something you find very often in Western Medicine.

Understanding the physical illness can help you address the underlying cause and thereby riding the body of the disease. That doesn’t mean that you can forgo mainstream medicine all together. Sometimes when you don’t listen to the messages of your body; the issue progresses and requires mainstream medical attention.

But these metaphysical/shamanistic concepts can help you understand why the illness formed, and how you can include metaphysical practices to help support the medical treatment from your physician.

There are many books on the market that describe this system of understanding and belief, but for me, one of the best books on the market for healers is called “Heal Your Body” by Louise Hay, from Hay House Publishing. Ms. Hay created one of, if not the definitive source for emotional causes, their corresponding illness and a metaphysical affirmation to help the individual deal with the originating cause. She has an excellent way of making the concepts understandable for healers and puts the perspective into words. I highly recommend her books.

These concepts will help any healer with their chosen mode of Metaphysical/Shamanistic healing. Be it Reiki, Rolfing, Crystal or Light healing, the basics begin the mind.

Psychic Development

Psychic Wolf by SpringwolfDeveloping Your Talents

Everyone is psychic to one degree or another. Some people are just more “aware” of the unseen energies within and around them than others are. But those “gut feelings”, a “woman’s intuition”, or a “detective’s hunch”, are all psychic abilities. We’ve just learned to call them something that doesn’t sound so far “out there”.

If you haven’t already, I’d suggest you go back a few postings and read about Psychic Abilities. On that article you’ll find descriptions about a Psychic and a Channel. The different types of Psychic senses a person might have. And how Metaphysics explains the levels of psychic communications.

Of all the questions I’m asked, “How can I be a psychic” is the most common. Right along with “How can I develop my own psychic skills?” As I mentioned above, you’re already psychic. Because everyone already is, it’s part of our nature or our natural instincts. It’s not a “gift”, nor is it a “special ability”. Everyone has it and everyone has the potential to exercise and develop their own senses. So before I answer this second question, how can you develop my skills, I always ask my own question first. “Why do you want to?” It’s important to understand why someone wants to enhance and develop their natural abilities? I’ve heard every answer in the book. “I want to read minds”, well you won’t be able to do that, so next? “I want to give readings and make some extra money” or “I want to be a psychic for a living”.Those desires come with karmic consequences, so be careful what you ask for. Ideally the answer I’m looking for is, so I can communicate with the Divine force in my life. Or some variation of that.

Psychic Abilities

Are You Psychic? 

How many times have you said to yourself, or someone else “I have a gut feeling”, or “This place or person feels creepy”? We all do it. We all have that inner instinct that tries to warn of danger. Most people ignore those gut feelings. Or dismiss them as imagination or paranoia. But did you ever think, those feelings might be accurate and real?

Psychic: (greek psychiokos – psyche, soul or that which is mental) to sense, to understand and to interpret for practical purposes, a force that enters in and emanates out of the body, mind and/or spiritual or ethereal realms without use of the 5 physical senses.

Being Psychic
Everyone is psychic to some degree, some people are just more in-tune with that side of their mind-body-spirit connection than others. These “gifts” are really just part of your senses. Those gut feelings, they’re really just your natural senses picking up on very subtle energy around you and warning you or sending you a message. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Eight of Pentacles

Eight of Pentacles

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Spend time mending fences instead of holding onto your anger. Not everyone is to blame for the event you’re mad about. But it sure seems like you’re taking it out on everyone around you. Take a deep breath and allow your inner kindness to show. You’re not the only one who is worried or concerned. So stop pushing others away, when all they really want to do is help.


Additional Insight:

Whither it’s a build up of all the little things, or one big event that has you on pins and needles, you’re not alone. Your actions impact others around you and all they want to do is show you support. They’re not part of the problem, and their not out to get you. So stop taking your anger out on them.

You’re better off keeping to yourself and offering a fake smile, than saying something you shouldn’t or uttering something you wish you hadn’t said. You need to breathe and show some patience. Eight days from now, things are going to be totally different and the decisions that have been made will show their hand. Those making the decisions will see the error of their ways and make necessary, and beneficial changes. But you must wait for them to get to that point on their own.

Just do what you need to do, follow the direction you’ve been given and keep your nose to the grind stone. The work you do now will be noticed, especially if you show the quality in your efforts that benefit everyone.  Use your newly discovered spare time to fill out paperwork, submit requests and follow-up on issues that are more personal in nature. This is your opportunity to complete the tasks that benefit you most. The Divine Universe is providing you this opportunity to improve your situation while you wait. Take advantage of it. You’ll be glad you did.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Chariot

The Chariot

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Ride it out, don’t go in looking for a fight and just watch the drama work itself out. The game isn’t over, but you still have no part to play. Decisions are being made in the shadows that have to face the light of day. There’s no agreements being made, just knee jerk reactions. That alone, will have consequences and you don’t want to be in the way.


Additional Insight:

Today you need to mind your manners and hold your tongue. While some decisions are impacting your ride, they won’t last for very long. Allow the Divine Universe to work its magik as those around you search for answers that bring about the necessary balance. There’s nothing you can do right now, but wait and be patient.

This isn’t the time to panic or make rash decisions. The cart is moving too fast to know which way to turn. If you move too quickly, you could be giving up the security you’ve built up. Just be calm and watch the aftermath relating to the actions already taken. You have plenty of time to do your paper work and prepare for any scenario.

Take advantage of the opportunity to catch up on the things you’ve been putting aside for too long. You already know there are some items on your list that you can do, maybe even things you’ve long needed to do. Stop putting off the fine details and make time to fill out the forms and submit the requests. Even if you stay where you are, those “certifications” will give you some much needed leverage. Make it a priority of your day and get it done.

By evening, don’t count on having any more information than you did this morning. You’re not being kept out of the loop, because no one really knows what’s happening. Even though you still don’t know what all the issues are, allow yourself to relax. The pressure is off your shoulders, even if it’s just for a little while.  Spend some quality time with those you love and don’t worry! It’s going to be ok. You’re not going backwards!

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Knight of Cups

Knight Of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Be watchful, keep silent and stay out of the fray. A backlash is about to occur and you don’t want to be anywhere near it. Guard your domain, but don’t engage in the fight. It’s not yours to defend, nor is it in your best interest to rebuke. You’ll learn more by remaining silent and if possible, remain hidden.


Additional Insight:

The battle that’s raging around you, has nothing to do with you. The conflict may impact you down the road, but don’t assume that’s a bad thing. Some issues must be hammered out and put to rest in order for you to move forward with your goals. But that doesn’t mean you need to stick your nose in, where it doesn’t belong.

Just sit back and watch. Remain ready in case you need to push the fight back onto the battlefield and away from your personal domain. Don’t allow someone to pull you into the fray with the idea that you’re going to stand up for their side. You might want them to win, but whatever you do, don’t let that get out. A simple “don’t bring me into this” will be sufficient to keep you in neutral territory. Don’t even think you can be the mediator and bring peace to the situation. It’s not your place! 

By evening, you’ll be able to relax and have a better understanding about what’s been going on behind closed doors. Keeping your nose to the grind stone and avoiding the drama, will be noticed by those in charge of the battle. And it will be appreciated. When the “King” comes calling, and only IF you’re asked what would you do, should you give your opinion. Just make sure you do it in private and without pointing fingers at anyone. Don’t tear anyone down, don’t build anyone up too much. And be able to justify your opinion. Otherwise, you’re just another clog in the wheel.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: The Magician

The Magician

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Decisions and actions are influx today. Much is going on and information is flying up and down the chain of command. Don’t make any decision, until all the facts are in. You’ll need to verify some of the details and ensure what’s being gathered is accurate. The worst thing you can do today is make a choice based on impulse or gut feeling. You must discover the facts and corroborate the evidence. Hear say and “trust me”, isn’t going to be good enough this time.


Additional Insight:

Important choices are at hand this week. Don’t let someone pressure you into making a decision before you have all the facts. They’re trying to swindle you and divert your attention from the hidden facts. It’s up to you to verify what you’re told, so ignore the gossip chain. Those people spreading the rumor, have no idea what’s really going on. They can’t even make a good educated guess. So either wait for the facts to come in, or walk away from the deal.

Remember things that are too good to be true, usually aren’t real. Don’t rely on the word of a friend who made the choice. All you’ll be doing today is falling into the same trap they did. Hold out and do your own research. That doesn’t mean listening to the entertainment news, or the popular conspiracy broadcast. It means calling those in authority and verifying information and credentials. Your money and livelihood could be at stake. It’s up to you to talk to people who you trust implicitly, research names, reputations and proclamations.

By this evening, you may still have some research to do, but you should feel better about your decision to hold out. You still have time to make a choice if everything checks out properly. So ignore the hard sell and the extra pressure. Don’t answer the phone, let everything go to voice mail tonight. You’re in control, don’t let anyone else make you think you’re not. By tomorrow afternoon, you should know what’s really going on and how to move forward in your best interest.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Three of Cups – Inverted

Three of Cups

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Just because things seem upside down, doesn’t mean they’re all bad and gloomy. Sometimes you need to turn things on their head to find out what they maybe hiding. Like the pocket change in the sofa, or the surprise in the bottle. It’s a good day, relax and be happy! Your cups are more filled up, than they are empty.


Additional Insight:

Many of us have become so used to bad news, struggle and strife that we’ve come to expect it at every turn. Remember when life wasn’t like that and things seemed much more simple? Waking up with dread creates your mind set for the entire day. If you expect something bad to happen, it’s going to happen. You create a self fulfilling prophecy, without even realizing it.

The Ravens are flying about today, as a reminder to us all, that things change. Nothing stays the same, it can’t. The multi-verse is constantly moving and we must move with it. No you won’t be left behind, you’ll be pushed along whither you want to or not. Don’t look upon change as some disturbing force trying to sweep you away with the trash. The Divine Universe doesn’t see us as poor, infirmed, afflicted and disenfranchised any differently than those who appear to be rich or entitled. Regardless of your status in life, you’re not being punished, you’re being pushed forward where things will be better and easier to get through the day.

It’s a good day to align your thoughts and actions with the Divine force in your life. Look at events today from a higher perspective. Look within and ask why you’re being lead, guided or yes, even pushed this direction when it’s not the way you feel you want to go. You could discover the reasons why you need to walk this path today. And it could be an amazing surprise that you never dared to dream. Take time to lift yourself up, instead of waiting for others to wave a magik wand and do it for you.

This change is good, not only for you, but for your family as well. Stop the self loathing, self pity, and look forward to the new. Today’s adventures just might turn out to be exactly what you needed AND exactly what you’ve wanted. Even if you don’t want to admit it. That’s ok. The Divine Universe knows how you really feel.
