Do not feel the need to constantly repeat the lesson of finding your power in protecting difficult people from themselves.

Salvador (to people-pleasers, empaths, and people caught in co-dependent relationships)

[voicesfromthelight]

Here is a quote from a reading I channeled for myself, yesterday, that is quite universally applicable. This echoes a previous quote from my spirit guides in which they spoke about ”being your own best friend.” How often do we preemptively dismiss, downplay or diminish our aspirations out of fear of failure? How often do we pretend to wish for less lofty things than we do, in case people might consider us deluded, overly ambitious, foolish or presumptuous? Talking ourselves down from our true aspirations is an attempt at creating emotional safety that stems from fear. Allow yourself, instead, to be led by your joy, and your honest heart. Be bold in your thoughts, your emotions, and in how you speak about things you aspire to in your life! When you pretend to be small, and speak in a manner that conforms to this ”small self,” you set in motion a manifestation of your vision that is smaller than what you truly desire. You are a magnificent being, and a co-creator of your reality! When you speak and think in a way that affirms your desires, you invite them into your life in their truest forms. Dare to dream big, my dears! Speak your truth!

You greatly doubt your own power. Why? You’re a Boss Lady! Cultivate the energy of respect! The world, and love itself, responds to that inner power. Enjoy this wonderful gift you carry within you. Turn your attention to what you wish to create, and soon, the world will align with your vision. To activate this influence, work towards your goals with an eye on completion, and ask the world to be ready to receive them.

Channeled Lessons in Psychic Development 11: "Your First Truth, Is The Truth," and Other Truths

During my channeling sessions for clients, I often take the opportunity to also bring through feedback from my guides on previous readings I've done, to check in on my progress as a medium. Yesterday, Salvador came through with some lovely instructions on how to be more receptive to accurate psychic information. It was all conveyed in shorthand, so this is my longhand translation. Some points were repeated for emphasis, so I've taken the liberty to edit this a little for clarity. The one phrase that came up most often was this: "Your first truth, is the truth." Once you are in a peaceful mindset, ready to receive, when intuition hits, it is faster than the analytical mind. Accept the first idea that comes to you. Don't second-guess yourself.

Without further ado, here is Lesson 11.

Think of your psychic development as an easy thing to achieve. You can easily develop your psychic ability! Your many guides will help to make you more confident.  Quietly master the concentration which allows you to sincerely and peacefully communicate with Spirit. Focus on mastering the energy of information.

Try to relax. Don’t get worked up when you think you’ve gotten something wrong. Feel how strong your personal power can be.  

Do this work sincerely. You can get better and better at it. You can bring evidence of the reality of Spirit.

Be conscientious and honorable in your work. Honor truth.

Don’t jump the gun when reading for people - wait for knowing, and trust your guides to tell you how the future will unfold. You'll receive knowledge and truth clearly. Clear psychic knowing comes from sincerity and openness to receive new energy.

Get enough rest. Lack of sleep drags down your energy. You and your guides work hard to help people, and sometimes they ask for more than you can give. People will always want more answers. Don’t overextend yourself. Your rest is also important.

You should trust what you receive even when there is much to discuss, and when there are many expectations to sift through and “talk over” to get to the truth. Commit to what you bring through.

Everyone who serves, serves from the heart.  

The first truth that comes to you, is the truth. Don’t take second guesses. When the intuitive, first truth comes, it will come from a place of serenity. When you have expectations, you end up guessing. Master your  concentration. Feel yourself developing, and exchange information openly.

Intuitive knowledge has a feeling of truth to it, dear.

Focus on the heart. Develop your psychic gift, and control your energy.

Allow yourself to rejoice over any success you experience. Every opportunity to practice your gift enhances your ability.

The gentle words you speak are medicine. Speak generously. Help give healing!

If your concentration wavers, regain control.

Your gift will adapt to your honest intention to do this work. Your proficiency will improve in proportion to your sincere desire to help people.

Work on your clairvoyance. Concentrate on improving it. Prove to yourself you can do it!

The development of your gift will bring many new people into your life. Remember to master yourself, first and foremost. Use your gift to patiently and peacefully guide people to love.

Love your dear self first. Any truth that you learn from psychic development should help you to create your best, most satisfying life. Fix your fear. Always have forgiveness. Don’t be hard on yourself, either.

Guide yourself to  joy.

With love,

Emily and Salvador

Why return to old mistakes? Enjoy your joy! Choose to protect your success. Be your own best friend.

Channeled Lessons in Psychic Development 12: On The Differences Between Spirit Guide Readings and Akashic Record Work

The world of channeling and mediumship is a multicolored tapestry of different energies, approaches and levels of consciousness. As we’ve discussed before in my piece about different frequencies in the spirit world, there are multitudes of sources and spiritual allies to tap into when you open up to communicate with spirit, depending what you seek to resonate with. Since tuning into these various streams of information means that switching from one mode of communication, such as evidential mediumship, to another, such as spirit guide channeling, can be tricky, it can sometimes be helpful to reflect on what is actually happening when we do so, as well as how the different sources we tap into can serve not only us, but humanity, in different ways.

I’ve been reflecting on this more than usual, lately, since I added Akashic Record dream work into my spiritual “tool box,” alongside channeling my personal guides and developing my skills as an evidential medium. One of the most defining differences between different modes of mediumship is how strongly they relate to the reality of personified, individuated human experience, versus addressing reality at a more cosmic level. As we move further up in frequency when we tune in, our channeling will tend to take on a more abstract, collective tone. One of the reasons I have chosen, so far, to practice Akashic Record work specifically through dream work, is that when I channel using long-form clairaudient dictation, the source that comes through tends to already be at a similar level of abstraction as the one verbal Akashic Record channeling usually expresses itself in. Since my primary concern as a medium and spiritual consultant is centered around healing on a very practical, emotional level, anchoring the work into the dream state allows me to integrate the wisdom of the Akashic Records in a personal, experiential way. The “loftiness” of channeling sourced from more “diffuse” collective consciousnesses, while extraordinarily lucid and eloquent, contrasts itself with the work I do with Natalie and Salvador first and foremost through how personal, specific, nurturing and practical the readings my guides bring through always are.

With this in mind, I recently started to pepper my channeling sessions with Natalie and Salvador with questions about who they are, how our work differs from Akashic Record work, what the benefits of the different methods are, and how, exactly, we work together energetically. Some of the questions I had, were: Are the guides truly their own entities, or simply manifestations of my own subconscious? When we read people together, how do they get information? (I even wondered if they were somehow already accessing the Akashic Records without me.) How independently can they work without me? Some of their answers surprised me. One especially interesting concept that has repeated itself since is the idea of  “moving the energy of information.” (More on that in a minute.) There is much to follow up on, but we’re off to a good start!

For context, it might be helpful to know that my most common way of reading people is to take an “energetic photograph” of them with my mind when the agreement to go forward with the reading is made, and then make a mental note to Natalie and Salvador that this is who we will be working with. Later, when I go into the channeling session on my own time, they come through and tell me everything I need to know about the readee, in spiritual shorthand, which is then translated, analyzed and written up into the reading report. Akashic Record reading, by contrast, taps into a more collective source of information, mediated by slightly different guides, who in my case, remain mostly “behind the scenes.” The records are, essentially, a cosmic, energetic archive of humanity and history, as it unfolds. In my particular practice, the connection to them is built and activated using Linda Howe’s Pathway Prayer.

Here is what I have found out so far in interviewing my guides. (Some information has been reordered for clarity, with more personal communications edited out.)

An opening statement on Akashic Record work:

Natalie: Trust this wonderful new gift - working with the Akashic Records. It brings new spiritual collaborators and people into your life. Incorporate this auspicious medicine into your work. Focus your mind on receiving the gift. Say yes! Do grand work with it. Please love! Concentrate fully. Your words are certain to serve selflessly. This new technique will be of great help to you, daughter.

Emily: How similar is the work that we do together to reading the records, in the purest sense?

Natalie: You seek pure truth in the records. The guides, on the other hand, work to heal your heart and master its intelligence. Our job is to excite hope within you. To bring reverence to you. Spirit says: Come feel love! Be of  wonderful service. We bring peace, love, psychic and spiritual development.

Emily: When we do readings together, do you and Salvador read the Akashic Records for me?

Natalie: No. We move the energy of information together. We don’t have our own control over it without you. We access the information and read people through your intention - not through the records. Know that we can develop still further the blessings of your work with us.

Emily: So, it’s really not the same thing?

Salvador: Correct. It’s important for you, however, to work to “move information” with many different guides. With us, you receive the knowledge through your heart, through your emotional connection, concentrating first on information pertaining to the physical world. Hidden truths such as those in the records are then easy to read and receive! We teach you intelligent concentration.

Emily: Is it beneficial for me to work with the Akashic Records?

Salvador: Yes, dear. It’s good. It’s a joyful lesson for you. Consider how you feel about it. Honor your feelings, ha ha!  (Emily’s note: True. I feel very good about it.)

Emily: Does the Pathway Prayer actually work to open the records?

Salvador: Yes, dear. This information is sound.

Emily: Are there advantages to Akashic Record work?

Salvador: Yes. You can read accurate facts in the records. You develop your ability to find  answers that bring joy, and strengthen your attention. Your speaking talents will also benefit. Talk in inspiring ways. Guide people! There are no conflicts here, between this work, and the other.

Emily: Is there any conflict between being an evidential medium and the channeling work we do? Can I get better at it and still do this work?  

Salvador: Proficiency in both these modalities can happen easily enough. True mastery has control over what it attunes itself to, dear.

…And now for the personal stuff!

Emily: Salvador and Natalie, are you your own personalities apart from me?

Natalie: Yes, dear. We are our own personalities. We are your soul family. Your honest guides. You draw us to you when your energy is happy and excited - we seek you out. Our life together bonded us. (Emily’s note: This means that we have had past lives together on Earth, but they have progressed spiritually to the point of no longer needing to incarnate.) This is a joyful fact. There is little need to dwell on the past, however. Focus on creating a happy life here and now!

Emily: Can you explain to me what happens when I use the Pathway Prayer before sleep?

(Emily’s note: In addition to reliving and reworking painful memories in Akashic Record-attuned dreams, I’ve found myself both waking up much more peaceful and happy, as well as becoming subtly aware of a highly uplifting stream of guidance and energy flowing into my consciousness as I fall asleep after the prayer.)

Salvador: It very much facilitates the manifestation of a happy, fun and successful life. The Akashic Record guides greet you, and you instantly receive information on the future that counteracts your fears. When this happens, there is a strong feeling of certainty. The guides empower you, and align you with your creative energy, through helping to strengthen the confidence you have in your future satisfaction, therefore removing resistance and doubt. In that moment, all that fulfills you is predicted and promised. The guides bring blessings, and you hear those blessings more clearly. You, in turn, need to offer the energy of your own joy to this process. Choose real, heartfelt joy, and intentionally, mindfully dismantle fear and trouble.

And that’s it, for now.

Have you tried tapping into different sources of information in your spiritual work? How did they compare and contrast with one another? Which source did you find most helpful, and why? Think about the different ways in which you can fine-tune your practice to access the widest range of information and healing!

[voicesfromthelight]

Where there is a void where your personal vision and optimism should be, pessimism takes root. Thus, it is important to occupy yourself with thoughts of hope and joy. Tell yourself the future is wonderful! Think freely and creatively. These happy predictions will then grow strong and blossom into blessings.
