Is it psychosis or is it psychic?
There was a time, perhaps, when someone could experience a psychic moment, and no one would look at them and assume they were merely nuts. Back when everything was a mystery, altered mind-states and un-normal behavior were just part of the whole inexplicable array. Magic has always been about how things happen that defy our straight-forward observation, logic and rationality. So many magical things have been revealed to be normal enough, once science and reason sorted them out. Psychology came... Sign in to see full entry.
Knowing Your Own-- an answer to Jeremy
"How would someone know if the energy is not their own? if it is attached then it would seem to be a part of your self. i ask this because i believe i have something similar to bipolar, and often question if it is something invasive." How does a mother know her own infant's cry amongst a crowd of kids? Babies' cries are pretty much all the same to non-parental ears, but they are not, in fact, the same. Each voice has its own timbre, its own pitch and peculiarities, and a mother learns quickly... Sign in to see full entry.

A Rant inspired by a Whinge...
As a 'baby-boomer' in the US, I have grown bitter and cynical, all trust in authority and government destroyed. Trust is tenuous where it tries to assert itself at all, in a world where we are confronted, confounded by falsehood, by deliberate manipulation of mind, heart and soul... The down-side of capitolism is the predatory commercializing of everything. Putting the ighest possible price tags on everything, then making it easy to ignore price tags by constructing the credit system... creating... Sign in to see full entry.

The Developing Soul
Jazwolf responded to my previous post with this query & comment: Ciel--- So, if the boy were to ask for your help, could you do more? I'm curious as to how the soul can improve and develop, if not with help from others. Of course, there are different models about how souls evolve. There is the reincarnation model, that supposes sequential lives moving one along as from one grade to the next. There's the model of the Hawaiian Huna religion that involves something that seems to me more like the... Sign in to see full entry.

There Was a Crooked Boy...
I met his mom at an ESP fair where we were both exhibitors. She asked me to 'look' at her son, a boy of about 9, who suffered from Tourette's Syndrome. He was not at the fair, but as time and space are no limitations on long-distance energy work, I did the reading. I did not at that time know much about the scientific or psychological model of Tourette's, though I had encountered it in real life a few years before, and had heard about it generally. I understood that Tourette's generally... Sign in to see full entry.

The day after... Meditation for Afters
Holiday gatherings are riots of energies! And among friends and family, it is so easy to lose our personal boundaries! Even when we are not physically with them, energy is shared with wishes and prayers, needs and desires. We pour our energies out to others, and they share theirs with us-- Intentions are good, and there is much of what's commonly considered "love" involved... We wonder and hope that what we give will be just right, that we will give joy and not disappoint, that our gifts will be... Sign in to see full entry.

"Why didn't I get more presents?"
This was the question my nearly-4 granddaughter asked this afternoon, after unwrapping one wonderful thing after another-- many that had been requested specifically, some mentioned in casual impulsive desire in the space between a commercial and a doting grandma (not this one, the other one...), and some a complete surprise and bafflement. Like socks. (My son, at about the age of 9, strolled into the kitchen in early December a few years ago, and said, as if it were the most casual of thoughts,... Sign in to see full entry.

Rainbow Girl
There is a woman who slumps along the streets of my town as she has for years, dressed in rainbow tie-dyes and muttering in alien tongues, smiling like an ambassador from another planet. Sometimes her hair is wild, other times, her head is shaved. Her skin is grey and smudged. There is a shadow that hangs over her rainbows. When she was 19, some 'friends' treated her, without her knowledge, to seven hits of acid that they thought wasn't very good stuff, and murdered her brain. I don't know her...

Someone once asked how I decided whether or not to give to a beggar.
I was in New York City at the time, and there were beggars on the subway working the cars with a sob storyand a paper cup. There were nuns in pairs or threes sitting in corners of town with coffee cans and blessings. There were people sick and deranged muttering and chatting and complaining and asking for money as if spare change was an afterthought. There was a young man, a music student, playing Vivaldi down in one of the City's deepest subway tunnels, one of the old round ones with tiled... Sign in to see full entry.
