HEALING HOLOGRAMS
By Bill Austin

Namaste! My name is Bill Austin and I am a spiritual teacher and healer based in Denver.

Several months ago, I was trained by SoulWisdom to use holograms to help people to clear and remove attitudes and beliefs from their energy fields that no longer serve their highest good. These unresolved energy patterns often create uncomfortable physical symptoms, negative feelings and limited thinking.

I have spent the last month taking the hologram techniques that I learned from SoulWisdom and applying them to other areas. I have developed additional sessions that assist people in blasting out core fear; letting go of negative attitudes; releasing blocks to self-love, personal power and abundance; and healing the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies. I am amazed by how powerful these processes are!

This is what one of my recent clients wrote about her session: "I just gotta tell you that I am feeling the results of the work that you have done. It is as if my life force is returning, I feel stronger and more solid… I realized that I just had more feeling, more passion for whatever I was doing. When I got home, instead of feeling as if I wanted to take a nap I worked on the deck planting flowers and puttering around, not because it was a task that I was pushing myself to do, but rather that I wanted to do. The work that you are doing is monumental! We must be free to create beauty in our lives, to enjoy life!!!"  Please visit my site. Back to T of C.
"GOSH, I WISH I HAD THAT IN MY LIFE..."
by Debra WhiteBurch

I have been asked by several people lately, how I have so many strange and wonderful, almost unbelievable occurrences in my life. I explain to them that this was not always the case, but rather, only since I have "allowed" and have been "grateful" for whatever the Universe brings me, has this been the norm and that it is possible for anyone.

One needs to understand that we are truly co-creators. We cannot just hand over our destiny to the SOURCE (Creator, All That Is...) nor can we take it all upon ourself, but rather, it is through aligning our individual will with the Will of SOURCE, that miracles occur. Through this co-creative effort, anything is possible.

Begin by setting your intention, align with divine assistance (the Universal Flow), let go, allow and then be grateful for whatever is brought your way and know that is what is correct and best for you at that time and gather your wisdom from it.

It is through your perception of things, that true abundance is brought forth. Viewing your outcomes with a positive perspective and recognizing your many blessings is wherein abundance lies. So have fun co-creating.

May peace be with you and true abundance surround you. Love and Light from Debbie. Please visit my website.
FUND RAISING -- Dominican Orphanage
by Marie Allizon

I have been helping an orphanage in the Dominican Republic for the past seven years. When I left a deposit in March to buy an acre of land in Santo Domingo so Dominica can continue to run the orphanage, I did not realize that:
1. by the end of April we raised the $3,400 needed for the acquisition of that property.

2. because of problem with road passage etc... the acre got shrunk, but a friend of Dominica offered 3 acres a little bit down the road for the same price! A miracle.

3. I chose to raise $1,500 for the wall (a $6,000 cost) while in France in order to close the property for our future school. A big thank to all my extended family.

4. I just decided to raise $100,000 to build the school for our 34 orphans. The first building has to be ready by August 31st! Already 2 French engineers and two other girls to help Dominica are planning to come and help. Dominica give them food and board BUT we need money to buy the materials ($40,000). I trust the right persons are there to help us.

Please let us know if you know of someone, or how to get corporate funds. City of Joy has a non profit tax ID # 54-1566941. You have the whole story on San Salvador School by visiting my site, 4D Shift. Dominica and the children thank you. Back to T of C.
THE LAST DUALITY
by Ken Page

I’ve been in the healing arts for many years and I’m seeing something that I’ve never seen before: a new energy pattern is appearing on my clients. About three years ago there was a major change when consciousness shifted from the left to right side of the brain and split the third eye -- like a line going down the center of us.This is the energy that we use to attract people and situations to us that help us to understand our issues and evolve. This energy doesn't want us to be creative or in our power, doing what we loved to do. It wants us to be tired, stuck, linear, confused, helpless. Why? Because if we are not happy, we are not in our power, and the energy uses this energy to grow.

The more we do what we love, the more our inside and outside worlds will come into harmony. Apparently we’ve been killed in past lives for our ability. This life we choose to split ourselves so no one would know who we are. We thought we would wait until we were older to come out and take our full power. We waited and watched as children. We only let people see a part of us. We keep our true selves hidden. The bad news is that this path splits our male & our female, too. We can be either male or female but they don’t like each other inwardly, and so there is internal conflict. A part of us does not feel complete so we keep looking outside of ourselves for the perfect female or male to help define us internally. This is the last duality in our physical reality. Finding inner balance is a must to complete this circle of life.

Four techniques in my book, The Way It Works, will help. All of The Way It Works is on my web site.
1.) Being energetically clear (Chapter 8) -- 2 1/2 minutes per day
2.) Getting your own answers (Chapter 16) -- 3 minutes per day
3.) Lucid Dreaming (Chapter 17) -- 1/2 hour before getting out of bed in the morning
4.) The Living Light Breath (Chapters 22 - 24) -- 10 minutes per day

WE ARE ANIMALS?
by Catherine Lynn Ceci

In the Nov. 8, 1999 issue of Time mag., an article cited “severe depression” to be the #2 “cause of death and disability in the year 2020.” Why is this so? What have we done to ourselves that we should be faced with taking mood elevators in order to function?

Living so closely with Jets Wonder Miss and Ky has shown me just how much we humans cut ourselves off from our natural environment. What is natural about spending 8 hours a day under artificial lighting and eating over processed foods?

We are Animals. In order to avoid becoming one of the members of this “stressed out society” we need to connect with our basic and natural needs that are inherent to us as human beings, as animals. Our domesticated animals are suffering the effects of stress also, (i.e. “doggie antidepressants”}. This is because they have become extensions of our family and are often emotional sponges to our moods. The first step for a stress free life is to establish Balance.
#1 Get adequate sleep
#2 Diet: eating more fresh vegetables and fruits
#3 Exercise
#4 Quiet time daily such as: contemplation time, prayer, meditation
#5 Seek satisfying work/career/relationships
If we do not “Take Charge” of our life, it will take charge of us. We must set our own guidelines and goals to help us stay focused. It is impossible to try to help the world when our own world needs help.

ALTERNATIVE THERAPY AUTHENTICATED
by SIRROM

Years ago I used to believe that many of the New Age practices were useless. Then, as I spent many months of each year at my South Pacific island home, I myself became more spiritual, and my thinking changed. Now, almost daily, I learn that such practices can indeed be beneficial. In a recent issue of USA Weekend (April 23, 2000), is listed some of the 500 "alternative therapy." studies conducted by reputable universities and institutions. Here are a few interesting examples:

"In a six-month study at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, AIDS patients who were prayed for by religious healers around the world saw doctors less often and were hospitalized less often than a group of AIDS patients who were not prayed for."

"The use of ginkgo biloba for dementia, green tea for cancer and St. John's wort for depression are among the clinical trials funded by the National Institute of Health."

"Studies at the University of Arizona show that biomagnetic touch healing (gentle touches to the body) lowers pain and stress and increases perceived relaxation."

New Age spirituality and alternative therapy is spreading throughout the world, thanks to the Internet. Please visit my website. Back to T of C.
TURN THE OTHER CHEEK
by Carwin Frandsen

If we allow our attention to dwell on the problems of the world, we actually feed our energy into the problems. Instead we should turn the other cheek - in a positive way. This does not mean that we just let people or conditions to roll over us and knock us around in life. When we feel the Presence of God in our own life first, then in any person, place or condition that seems to be manifesting less than perfection, we stay focused and centered.

When we practice this enough we will not be fighting (or feeding our energy into another person, place or condition) but our own current of energy, with the Presence of God, will neutralize, or control any energy that is trying to express imperfection, without a feeling of fight or resistance.

In a way, this is how a "Robin Hood" or "James Bond" might operate. When they are surrounded by the opposition and there seems to be no way out, they still do not play the other persons game, they stay focused and centered on their own plan (plan ‘B’ if necessary) and are able to get out of seemingly impossible situations.

This is not to say that we are in a dangerous situation, but it is a sure way to get out of the illusions (money problems, pollution, energy problems, etc.) that seem to be surrounding us in our outer daily life. Please stop by and visit our website. Back to T of C.

BALANCING YOUR CHAKRAS WITH THE DOUBLE INFINITY SYMBOL
by Alijandra

Greetings in the Light and Love of Source! The following is a wonderful technique for aligning your chakras with your over soul's energy.

The double infinity symbol appears as a horizontally laid figure eight, intersected by a vertically positioned figure eight. It is the emblem for the 11th dimension (The dimension where many over souls reside). The dimension was created by a triad of color rays: the violet, rose and clear. In the ancient mystery schools, it was recognized that certain symbols existed for creating doorways or "keys to understanding". These allow one to work with the energies coming from the other places or dimensions. The purpose is to connect in a conscious manner to your Over soul; to embrace the state of oneness, knowledge, and empowerment that connection provides.

• Ground and protect yourself.
• Balance your chakras by turning them 13 times in each direction.(For the positions, functions and colors of the chakras, see my website or my book, "Healing with the Rainbow Rays")
• Then, psychically, place the double infinity sign in each chakra, starting at the base.
• Within your mind's eye, trace with energy the double infinity symbol one revolution horizontally along the figure eight, then one revolution vertically. Do this 11 times for each chakra. To make it really intense, you could "run" the violet, rose and clear rays as the tracing colors along the vertical and horizontal figure eights of the double infinity symbol.
• Re-ground.

SOUL'S PURPOSE ASTROLOGY
by Patty Finlayson, PMA

Astrology is multifaceted in its focus. You can study your horoscope for physical, earthly information and predictions, or you can learn how to become more spiritually attuned, growing into your ascension.

Your personal horoscope reveals what your soul wants you to fulfill this lifetime, which may not include what you think you want to accomplish in terms of earthly rewards or career. Some mystical or esoteric teachings indicate that you, as a soul, chose the planetary placements to be born under before birth because the planets were aligned according to your soul’s purpose for this lifetime. Your choice of planets before birth reveals your free will for this lifetime, and makes what seems like limitations in your horoscope parameters for growth. What may seem to others as lucky, seen in this light, reveals where and how you as a soul are benefiting from giving in the past. In addition to the planets Saturn and Jupiter, which represent karma and grace respectively, are points in your horoscope that indicate where you are coming from and where you want to go spiritually. The rulers of those points interact with each other and the planets in your horoscope, revealing how you will experience your soul’s purpose.

When astrology is used a tool for growth, the transits or predictions reveal when and how your soul is bringing the gift of experiences to you in order to integrate your personality with your spiritual self, and create harmony within yourself, your world and with others. See my website for more astrology information. Back to T of C.
TRUE FRIENDS?
by Joanna Cherry

If you're anything like me, you go the extra mile to keep a friendship alive. We need friends, of course; but what friends?

Rushing headlong into the age of enlightenment is both exhilarating and hazardous. As the growing light shines into dark corners of our psyches, revealing what needs to be released, so the light shines deeply into the dynamics of our friendships.

In the last year, I had to let go of two friends I considered family. Though each loved me genuinely, energy from their unconscious levels undermined that love. With each, I pretended these energies weren't there. In each case, we finally co-created an event--impossible to ignore--which showed our friendship's true colors.

Wrenching as it was, we each needed the freedom to expand in a new way. The partings were a blessing for all three of us. Discernment and wisdom have grown.

We are pioneers of a new time upon the earth. At the core of our being are certain spiritual goals, and gifts we've come to give. Does our friend have goals resonant with our own? Do we help each other attain these goals--not only with words, but energetically? Do we honor and bless each other's gifts? Do we generously assist one another to give these gifts?

Such a friendship is true friendship: a priceless blessing, a joy of unfathomable depth and richness.

What we need in this amazing time is true friends. Here's a blessing, to you and me, to let go when we need to. To create and nourish true friendship! Please visit my site. Back to T of C.
LIVING WITH CRYSTALS
by Barbara LaRocca

Recently I went to the East Coast to run classes on shamanism and crystal healing. I usually run classes that are about a month apart but this was different. In one week, I taught three totally separate classes to totally different types of people. As a result, I found myself immersed in the most intense world of crystals. . . a truly awesome experience.

In private practice, I use crystals everyday. I often will take a crystal to bed so that I can more deeply process an issue or access information from other dimensions. In these classes, I used the crystals (Vogel crystals, Dream Crystals, and Meditation pieces) to sharpen and channel the energy of the class and aid the individual students in getting the deepest experience. The crystals gave me the ability to lead the group into altered states and self-empowerment.

Using crystals with intent and integrity leads to the purity and power to do the work necessary to heal and help others as well as the planet. The energy that is generated from consistent and strong use of these crystals gives a feeling of happiness and well being that has exceeded my expectations. In terms of psychology, this consistent use of crystals leads to greater clarity, tolerance of family issues, and comfort with the inner world.

Try holding your personal crystal twice a day for a minute or two. Ask yourself to live with intention and intuition. . . feel the powers of the crystal enhance your ability to move forward.

ASTROLOGY THROUGH THE EYES OF AN ASTROLOGER
by Janice A. Stork

There are those who still believe astrology is something dark and evil that was left over from the Middle Ages. They question whether there is truth to it and if anyone ever really knows what the future holds for them or do they even want to know?

Have you ever wondered what an astrologer can see in your horoscope chart? When I look a chart I can see all 10 planets that were in the heavens when you were born. Each planet will tell me something about you such as the Sun (characteristics); Moon (emotions); Mercury (thoughts); Venus (Love); Mars (drive); Jupiter (luck); Saturn (restrictions); Uranus (changes); Neptune (illusion); and Pluto (transformation). A picture will form showing your path in life, its rewards and restrictions.

Each planet will be in a house in the chart which will have its own meaning, i.e., first (self); second (money); third (eudcation); fourth (home); fifth (love/children/pets); sixth (health); seventh (marriage/partnerships); eighth (taxes/credit/inheritances); ninth (philosophy, travel); tenth (career); eleventh (friends/wishes); and twelfth (seclusion/restraint).

All birthcharts are different. You could have Saturn in the second house of money which means a lot of karma and restrictions financially coming to you from circumstances in a past life. Perhaps you have Jupiter in your second house which means financial good fortune.

Beyond characteristics and prediction based on where the planets are today, an astrology chart can also show you where another person's planets fall in your chart. If their Mars conjuncts your Venus that could mean a passionate love affair. If their Saturn falls in your second house they could cause you financial restrictions whereas if their Jupiter is there your association with them could be financially rewarding.

VIBRATIONAL COLOUR HEALING
By Deborah Sky

While sitting up on the mountain, I asked Spirit to bring to me a new hue of vibration to work with. I received the word Demascus, it is a type of rose with a particular pink colour/hue to it.

The pink rose colour represents a very large female energy. It will assist us to utlize this ray/hue of vibration with old issues coming up, new projects, changes and relocation. This infusion of colour is beautified more so when feeling it caress the outer layers within the stratosphere around our planet.

Utilizing coloured rays of light in our daily activities and meditations, the healing hues can be guided to particular parts of the body where energy is stuck or feels stagnant. The frequency/vibrations of colour assist us daily, consciously absorbing certain colours can assist all of us in healing personal and planetary issues. Mother Nature is asking our physical bodies for the strength and courage to follow our inner desires- to Trust the relationship she is awakening within our kindred hearts & minds. This is one of the vibrations to Demascus...Trusting.

May the Light within Shine Brightly. Please visit me. Back to T of C.
THE FIVE REASONS WHY PEOPLE DON'T BUY FROM YOU
By Otto Collins

If you're like me you believe in what you have to offer. You believe in how you can help improve the lives of others.

Many years ago, I listened to a tape on selling by the great motivational speaker Zig Ziglar. On the tape he said that there were only five reasons why people don't buy from you.

They were: No Want, No Need, No Money, No Hurry and No Trust.

If you have a passion for what you do, have a product or service that can really help others, but the new clients, customers and sales aren't coming, you need to ask yourself which of these five reasons could be the problem.

If your marketing efforts have done their job properly, you can effectively eliminate all five of these reasons.

One of the primary problems I see in the marketing efforts of people in New Age related businesses is that you don't tell your potential clients and customers how you can benefit them.

If you are an Astrologer, you don't do astrology. You help people by What? If you are a Reiki practitioner you don't do Reiki. You help people to do What? If you are an Author, you're not just an author you help people by doing what?

I could give you my answers to these questions but that wouldn't help you. Your answers to these questions have to come from within.
