You Can Train Yourself to Sense Subtle Energies

You can train yourself to sense subtle energies within your body, in your environment, as well as with other people. Essentially it is a matter of having
  • the desire to sense energy,
  • then pausing and directing your thoughts and attention to the what you want to sense,
  • then allow yourself to FEEL what is happening within you, and then
  • let your thoughts interpret those feelings.
You can do this process to better assess what is going on in your body, or what is affecting your body. For example, you can tune in and assess which foods and beverages your body agrees with, and which ones your body prefers you stay away from. 

You can use this process to better assess the subtle energies in your environment, such as your home, your room, or your work. This can help you recognize where, and even how, to change and improve these subtle energies-- or if you need to leave.

You can use this process to also assess the subtle energies of other people around you. This can help you determine which individuals your inner self is negatively reacting to, or which ones are a positive connection and are helping your own inner-self expand and grow.  

You can develop and improve your skills to sense those subtle, invisible, spiritual energies that are in all living things. Knowing which energies you interact with and help you feel good, as well as which energies smother and drain you, can help you make wiser decisions and better choices.

Using Anchor Points to Move in Time

3/25/2019

One of the skills a person can learn is to move through time. This is a spiritual gift and is known as "past life regression and future sensing". It is not that your physical body is moving through time. It is your energetic self that travels and moves. Your physical body will stay in the present time and space. Your energetic, spiritual self is projected out of the physical boundaries of your body journeys to another place along the time continuum. The place it goes can be described as a mental "anchor point" in time. 

It is easier for your energetic, spiritual self to move along the timeline if you can mentally visualize the place to where your energetic self is to go. In addition, it is also easier to move to a place in the past, especially if this was a time and location where you were formerly incarnated. This is because your energetic self can more easily locate and find your personal essence you left behind at that time and place. 

When I started to explore how to develop and use those skills, I first accepted the idea that I had prior incarnations. Then I desired to know about some of those former incarnations and asked to have information about a prior incarnation brought forward. I was now mentally focused to receive such messages.

I then had a dream that felt significant. In this dream it seemed like I was white woman in a Southern state in the USA. I was dressed in a pale pastel dress that looked like it was from the early 1900's with a big hat. I was outside, standing on a big porch and was asking for money for the fight for women's rights. A black woman came by, hearing my words, and gave me ALL her money. It was coins of silver and I knew this was her entire life's savings and every penny she had, and she was freely giving it to me and entrusting it with me to help secure women's rights in the South. The coins totaled $25. I then awoke and meditated on the dream to better understand the dream message.

I was made aware this was 1915 in Mississippi and this black woman who gave me her entire life's savings to help women was Mary, my Spiritual Guide.  

Later, I used that former incarnation of a life in 1915 in Mississippi as an anchor point to help me visualize a time and place to project and visit. Then, during a deep meditation, I projected my energetic, spiritual self to that anchor point in time with a purpose to bring and distribute subtle, spiritual energy, with a focus on civil rights, women's empowerment, and justice - back to that point in time and space.  

This is how I started to develop and expand this skill - discovering anchor points and then sensing what type of energy may be needed to help soften or improve life at that point in time.

Why Learn to Cultivate Spiritual Energy?

1/4/2019

Picture
The reason a person may want to cultivate spiritual energy process is to enhance and deepen your life experiences. When you cultivate spiritual energy, you change your personal energetic vibration so it can match to different subtle, spiritual energies. When your inner energetic self matches a certain frequency, you can then connect with, interact, direct, use, and communicate with that energetic frequency. When this happens, you have spiritual experiences that are aligned with that energy frequency.

For example, you begin to SENSE things beyond your physical senses. You may start to see nonphysical images, for example. Or be able to move through time and space. Or know things but not know how you know them.

There are different tools to help you learn to change your personal energetic self, such as food, sex, sound, color, ritual, meditation, contact & movement. There are also different methods to help you improve how you connect and align with these different energetic vibrations to enhance the results you receive.

Learning to cultivate, sense, connect with, and partner with these different subtle energies will change your life. It opens a door into new understanding and awareness. And one of the best things is this process of cultivating spiritual energy stays with your energetic body and self. It creates new and different energetic threads that will stay with you beyond this physical life.

Cultivating the Spiritual Energy Skill to Sense the Future

12/2/2018

Picture
The energy of the 3rd chakra is an energy frequency, which allows you to move in time. Essentially you can move backwards and visit an anchor point in the past, or you can move forward and SENSE a future. Moving and visiting the past feels more “solid” than just sensing the future. This is because the past is mentally considered “done and completed” whereas the future feels more fluid and ethereal. The future, after all, is more subject to change.
 
The skill of sensing the future usually begins first with mental impressions. You then become more accepting of your impressions and with that acceptance and confidence, you then start to receive even greater details with your impressions. For example, at first you may sense singular concepts, such it feels like we need to look for a key. Or you may even see images, such as "I see a key". As your skills improve, you may even get greater clarity and details, such as "I see an old skeleton key buried in the dirt near an old oak tree". As this skill improves even more, you may also start to sense or see multiple objects or images that may be tied together. In a way, it may feel like you are sticking your head through an energetic filter of floating lint, and as you stretch your neck, the denseness of that floating lint gets less and less, allowing you more clarity until you have no filter at all.
 
For me, I more of a visual person, so most of my sensing of the future has become a visual experience. I have also noticed that if I am participating in an activity that requires me to sense the future, the vibrancy of the colors improved or changed, as my skills improved. At first, I saw things mostly in grays or black and white. As the skill improved, I started to notice colors. At first they were more muted and faded, or soft colors. With more skill, the colors also became richer and more detailed. 
 
Also be aware there are different techniques to sense the future, and a technique may or may not work with you. This is because we each have a different energetic signature (or frequency) and some methods may work for your friend, but may not work for you. Also be aware, different teachers will use different techniques to help you sense the future. For example, some Shaman practices will require group participation, using drumming and chanting, with a guided meditation. Other techniques use physical tools, such as the iChing, an ancient Chinese text, which matches numbers thrown by chance when you contemplate a specific and exact question, and then you match it to the response in the ancient text. But my preferred method has been to use an individual process focused with meditation. The process I use is to connect to a “thread” within the prime radiant timeline that is associated with the person I am seeking answers for, or a future date range, or location. I then mentally take that thread and become anchored to the point of my question within the prime radiant itself. I then observe and listen within that meditation.
 
What I have learned in this process to improve my skills of sensing the future, is that I now have an even greater awareness and appreciation this gift is just showing a POSSIBLE future. It is not an exact and solid future; it includes some fine print that says, "this future is subject to change". And it can and it does. This is because energy flows change all the time, and this may cause the future you sensed or saw to possibly change, too.  

Sensing the future is a spiritual gift that provides additional information. This additional information can then be used to help us become better prepared.

Your Sensations Enhance When You Cultivate Spiritual Energies

When you start to cultivate spiritual energy, you most likely will start having more spiritual experiences, such as seeing flickering lights, or interacting with spiritual beings, or having more significant dreams. But you may also notice new sensations within your body, mind, or spirit. For me I started to feel I was now stepping outside the confines of my body each time I meditated, and with it came a sensation of  total freedom, delight, and wonder.

I also started to notice that when I was in this state of expanded freedom, I was better at conversing and receiving guidance. Later, I also noticed how I was getting better results from the spiritual cultivation process during these  "expansion windows". Then I noticed having a lot more spiritual experiences occurring. 

Over time, I also began to feel sensations I call "the wobbles" as if my inner self was always vibrating. At first, it felt "thick and dense" but over time, it changed to feeling more like a gentle "hum" - kind of like the purr of a refrigerator. For a long time, I didn't know what this was or what it meant. Later I realized this is what is meant by "trying to increase your vibration". For me, this was not something I worked on - it just happened. It was an automatic transition and sensation. What I have discovered, however, is this seems to allow me to  "connect" with other subtle, spiritual energies at almost any time. I no longer have to be in a meditative state to connect with spiritual energies. I can now connect with different spiritual frequencies with mental focus and intention, almost on an ad hoc basis.

Cultivating 1st Chakra Energy & Developing Personality Sensing

3/20/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
You can cultivate the energy of the first chakra and train yourself to develop the spiritual gifts associated with first chakra energy.  This spiritual gift is known as personality sensing. It is the ability to not only sense subtle energy of a person or place, but to go deeper, beyond just sensing, but to KNOW. It is as if you are being given inside information about a person or place so you have a complete understanding or awareness of this person or this place. Often times, with personality sensing, you will be SHOWN and image in your mind about hidden events, or will receive the hidden conversations via a telepathic message, or even sense the actual type of energy you are in contact with in a sensing experience.
 
Often the personality sensing experience is triggered without warning. Because I’m more of a visual person, many of my personality sensing experiences will be displayed as visual images, showing me an actual event that happened with this person, showing me what this person is really up to.
 
Personality sensing may serve as a warning, to be cautious in your dealings with this person, or to just have expanded data.  Other times, the personality sensing may be a type of “pull” to a person that you can not shake. When this happens, it is more than likely your Higher Self letting you know you NEED to be connected with this person because this person is part of your life path.
 
When the spiritual gift of Personality sensing kicks in, it often is INTENSE and IMMEDIATE. You essentially have no control over the feelings, images, thoughts, and data you are receiving in that single experience.None.

In order to develop and cultivate this skill, you begin by using the tools to cultivate the 1st chakra energy so that chakra is vibrant, available, clear, and it is aligned and balanced with the other chakras. Next, you focus on tuning into your IMPRESSIONS and FEELINGS and pay attention to what happens when you meet or interact with different people. As this skill improves, you may then start to experience images of events these people are in, or have been in - almost as if you are in a waking dream. Later, you will receive messages in your mind that are not yours, providing you with much more detail about what is really going on with this person.


Summary
In summary, personality sensing is a spiritual gift associated with the 1st chakra energy. One can cultivate this gift by using the tools associated with the 1st chakra. While one is using the tools to nourish and fortify 1st chakra energy, one practices and develops this gift by
  • becoming aware of the personalities of different people (and places)
  • tuning into your impressions and feelings about different people (and places) and determining why you feel that way or have that impression
  • be open to receiving subtle messages about other people (and places) via dreams, thoughts, or telepathic communication
  • pay attention to those subtle messages about other people (and places) 
  • be open, tuned in, and react (or respond)  when you receive these messages and thoughts which come into your mind as if from no where

Developing the Spiritual Gifts of the 6th Chakra

3/2/2017

0 Comments

 
PictureImage from http://humansarefree.com
When we cultivate the different chakras, we nourish, fortify, clear, and balance that chakra energy so it can be available for us to have spiritual experiences.The energy of the 6th chakra is the energy that helps us gain spiritual knowledge, insight, and wisdom. Because this is spiritual knowledge and understanding, it is easier to gain this wisdom and knowledge on the SPIRITUAL PLANE - the place where our Higher Self is located, and our Spiritual Guides.

We usually call the spiritual plane the ASTRAL plane (or heaven). We usually call the means of getting to the astral plane while we are still alive on the physical plane (or earth), astral travel or astral projection.

So, if you want to develop the spiritual gifts associated with gaining knowledge, insight, and wisdom, the best way to acquire this is to first learn how to get to the astral plane. 

Steps for Astral Travel
There are three phases of learning to travel to the astral plane:
  1. The first is to get you out of the body.
  2. The second is to obtain and remember the travel.
  3. The third is to direct the travel.
Each phase should be mastered before attempting the next. The reason for this is to allow the mind to ease into the experience. As you gain experience, you will know when it is right to proceed to the next step.
 
Step 1 - Getting Out of Your Body Training (Soul Expansion)
  1. In a meditation, you can do this: In the meditation, plant in the expectation of travel by visualizing weightlessness or floating or levitation and how nice it feels. As you do this, plant also the thought that you will travel to the astral plane as you levitate or feel weightless.
  2. When you prepare for sleep, you can do this: As you lay in bed you first feel comfort and quiet. As you find yourself drifting into sleep, concentrate on these thoughts.  First, “I can fly.  I am weightless. I can leave my body and fly or travel beyond. Plant in the mind the expectation of travel by visualizing weightlessness or floating or levitation and how nice it feels. As you do this, plant also the thought that you will travel to the astral plane as you levitate or feel weightless.
After success in obtaining the feelings of weightlessness or levitation during sleep, one may assume that the soul has traveled but the mind does not recall. Once this has been achieved, add the thoughts about levitating, or weightlessness, or traveling. Focus on opening the mind to receive input and remember. 
  1. I wish to meet my Higher Self.
  2. I desire to remember this.
Once you recall a travel experience (you will recognize it by its unusual and somewhat nondescriptive feelings) you will begin to feel that you did travel; perhaps not convinced at first, but with practice you become sure.
 
Step 2 - Train Yourself to Remember the Travel
The first step of mind training is to help you improve your ability to recall your astral travel experience and it goes like this: 
  1. Begin a meditation as you feel comfortable.
  2. Visualize your memory working well.
  3. Visualize the chakras in your spiritual body, glowing, being aligned, being balanced.
  4. Visualize yourself going to sleep and allowing your mind to wander. Notice how the chakras are still glowing, aligned, and balanced.
  5. Visualize sleep coming restfully, quietly upon you as your recite in your mind that you are free and weightless and wish insight into a specific idea.
  6. Note that as you sleep, your body relaxes and your mind rests. Note how your soul grows in energy.
  7. Note your body, although still in bed, feels light, and that your soul is lifting and traveling.
  8. Visualize your soul leaving and contacting other souls, gaining, insight and knowing them.
  9. Note how your soul is refreshed and how it gently returns to the body, bringing knowledge and insight to the mind.
  10. See how the mind is eager to accept this information and remember the experience.  As it does, you wake with love and insight.
  11. End the meditation.
Most astral travel is done while you are asleep, so before you go to sleep, program your mind to recall your astral travel dreams by saying or thinking:
  1. I have a good memory
  2. It serves me well in sleep
  3. It improves with astral travel.
  4. I can remember my travel experiences
  5. I can recall my travels in dreams
  6. I can recall my travels in meditations
 
Step 3 - Train yourself for Astral Projection 
  1. The next step is to plant a seed thought so that once you obtain the astral plane, your subconscious can direct the soul in its mission.
  2. The first mission should be to meet your Higher Self; and remember.
  3. After you are successful with that, you next want to direct your soul to meet with your Spiritual Guide; and remember.
  4. After you are successful in those two tasks, you can expand to find answers to questions that may concern you, and bring back the answer.
  5. You can also direct your soul to gain insights and knowledge, and bring back to your mind.

Experiences You Can Expect While You Develop this Skill
These are the spiritual experiences you can begin to expect when you start practicing leaving your body and going to the astral plane:
  • having an out-of-body experience
  • meeting your Higher Self
  • meeting your Spiritual Guide(s)
  • interacting with nonphysical Beings
  • knowing something, but not understanding why or how you know it
  • projecting your spiritual self to the astral plane
  • gaining knowledge, wisdom, insight

Developing Spiritual Gifts with 5th Chakra Energy

3/1/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
When we cultivate the different chakras, we nourish, fortify, clear, and balance that chakra energy so it can be available for us to have spiritual experiences. The energy of the 5th chakra can be used to help us receive and interpret complex VISUAL messages. These messages often are significant and meaningful dreams during sleep time, but over time and with more practice, these visual communications can expand to become waking dreams and even visions.

Because the spiritual gift development process with 5th chakra energy usually begins with "sleep-time dreams", if you want to develop the spiritual gift of learning to receive and interpret VISUAL spiritual messages, we first need to train our mind to be open to receive these types of messages. Next, we train our mind's to remember the dream message. Then we need to learn how to interpret the dream message.

Dream Training
  1. Before you go to sleep, tell yourself you are open to receive communication through your dreams.
  2. Tell your mind you want to remember your dreams. This will alert your mind to pay attention and to bring back images, feelings, impressions, and details. Over time, your ability to bring back details of your dreams will improve.
  3. Next, when you are starting to wake up, there are moments when you are "in between" sleep and being awake. Use this time to initiate your thoughts to start the recall process. Much of the recall can become engaged in this "in between" time between sleep and wakefulness.
  4. Another helpful process is to record your dream as well as your feelings about the dream. Eventually you will start to remember more and more details from your dream.
After you start to receive and remember your dreams, you then need to determine which dreams are messages, and which dreams are just dreams. Dream messages that are considered messages are called REAL dreams or SIGNIFICANT dreams. You can tell a significant/real dream from your everyday type of dream, because it is STRONG, it LINGERS and it FEELS different. It is "sticky". It stays with you. These are different from your everyday type of dream which seems to be fleeting and difficult to recall. The message dreams are clearer and sharper. These are the ones that are messages from either your Higher Self or your Spiritual Guide. 

​Interpreting the Dream and Interpreting the Message (or Insight)
Once you have a real/significant dream, you next need to interpret it.  Here is the process to help you interpret your dream.: 
  1. Established an overview of the dream
  2. Interpret the overview
  3. After interpretation of the overview, then gain the insight and meaning of the dream
In the dream interpretation process, first seek an overview of the entire dream. How do you obtain an overview? You recall the dream in detail. Do not suppose answers during the overview process. Ask questions about the details and seek what may be important or contradictions or unusual or normal events. In other words, what stands out in the dream? (Because a dream is your own, you will have the advantage in its interpretation).
 
Interpretation is what the dream images represent. Interpretation is taking the images and translating them into a message. Sometimes the process can feel like the game of charades - taking images and clues and then piecing them together.
 
Insight is the lesson or the teaching to be learned. The insight can come from the mind or the Higher Self. Generally it is the subconscious trying to inform the conscious. Dreams that seem to standout vividly and have a tremendous impact are generally from your Higher Self.
 
In the interpretation process, maintain an open mind. Once you have thought about an interpretation and have decided that it is not complete, you must be willing to disregard that interpretation. As you explore interpretations to dreams, permit your mind to wander and explore other completely unrelated possibilities.

Waking Dreams
Once you become proficient in receiving messages through dreams in the sleeping state, you may start to have waking dreams where you care presented flashes of images during resting as well as moving meditations. This skill can then progress to experiencing seeing visual messages while awake, or even visions.
