Empowerment for 2012

2012 is right around the corner! Before the new year I choose an empowering word (or two) to focus on for the next year. My empowering word for 2012 is GROWTH.
These are some of the things I do to focus:

• I make a sign with the word on it so I can look at it daily (decorate, add other words, have fun with it)
• I make a broad list of things I’d like to accomplish.
• I take that broad list and make a dream board then put it up on the wall in my office.
• I then break that broad list down into more manageable weekly goals.
• Every morning before getting out of bed I do one of two things – A) Already know what I’m going to do that day (no matter how small) toward my goal for (insert word/s here) or B) Ask my spirit guides, angels, God, Goddess, whatever you believe in – to direct me toward my goal.
• Every evening I take a few minutes to reflect on my accomplishments for the day.

Empowerment for 2012

No matter how small of a step you take, you are making progress toward your goal.  Remember no step is too small!  Always have confidence in yourself and be your best cheerleader because you deserve it.  So many of us don’t take the time to acknowledge how amazing we really are and it makes a tremendous difference in your outlook on things.  Empower your inner DIVA – she wants to shine so let her!

Are you ‘acting on’ or ‘reacting to’ life?

In Love & Light

How Numerology Can Benefit You

Numerology is a great way for you to understand your strengths and weaknesses; what you can be and how to get there. It helps you understand yourself in a unique way. According to numerology, all the information you need is contained within your cosmic name and your birth date. Your name, given to you at birth, is referred to as a ‘cosmic name’. It mirrors your talents, goals and paths – basically, some of the reasons behind your existence.

The Birth Date

One significant factor in numerology is the day on which you were born. It doesn’t matter what month or year it was, only the day is significant. This will give the numerologist a very accurate idea of the traits which characterize you.

The Soul Urge

This is found by putting together all the vibrations created by the vowels in your name. From the Soul Urge you can divine a person’s motivations and goals, their longings and dreams.

The Expression

This is what you show the rest of the world. These are the traits that others see in you the most.

Karmic Lessons

These are formed from the vibrations which don’t feature in your name. They comprise the areas which you have yet to learn about and qualities that you haven’t developed yet in this life. Most people have 1-3 karmic lessons.

Malefic Lessons

Malefic is derived from the Latin word ‘bad’. Malefic numbers represent our karmic debt. They show that there was abuse in a previous life which has to be balanced out in this one.

The Path of Your Life

This is calculated by putting together the numbers of your birth date, and then reducing them by adding the digits together again. This goes on until you get a number ranging from 1 to 9. This number will indicate how the rest of your life can be. Your life path will show you how to understand the experiences you are likely to face in life.

Coaching – A Key Tool of Empowerment

A coach is someone who supports you and helps you achieve your goals – whether they are personal or professional. The coach’s job is to challenge and stimulate their client. She can in turn be a disciplinarian and a therapeutic listener – all based on what the client needs.

Coaching for Your Life

Life coaching is when a coach helps people on a personal level. Here, your coach guides you into setting goals for yourself and achieving them. Coaches are not therapists, but they do draw from fields such as sociology, mentoring and counseling.

Coaching for Your Career

Career coaching is different from life coaching as it focuses on your job-related goals, rather than your development as a person. Career coaching has similarities to other fields like traditional counseling. Career coaches are often known as Career Guides. These guides gather their inspiration from other areas such as mentoring, consulting and advising.

Coaching for an Individual

Individual or personal coaching is when a coach and client enter an agreement which is based purely on the client’s goals and interests. Some methods of personal coaching are self-reflection, discussions and inquiries. All these help the client create personal and professional goals. The coach can help her develop plans which can enable the client to achieve her goals. The client may accept the coach’s assistance but she must take the lead.

Coaching for Your Health

Health coaches are intended to aid individuals in their battle against their personal illnesses and conditions – whether they are mental or physical. The coach will use her own specialized techniques and experiences to encourage the client with their healing. This will help the client change her behavioral patterns and live a more healthy and fulfilled life.

Coaching is a healthy way for a woman to deal with her problems. Having a guide can give her reassurance and confidence that she might otherwise lack, helping her attain her life goals.

Healing With Crystals and Reiki

Reiki healing uses crystals to help stimulate the energy in the body and to speed up the healing process. In Reiki, crystals are laid out on the client’s body. The layout is based on the seven colors and their corresponding chakras.

Laying the Stones On

This is done to release the mental, emotional and spiritual blocks to a person’s state of well being. If the client feels uncomfortable when a crystal used for healing is laid on their body, then it is moved to another position or removed.

Balancing the Chakra

A simple way to balance the chakra in your body is to place an appropriate stone on the chakra on your body. This gives the chakra a boost. Healers believe that the connection between the chakra and the stones will heal the body from its inflictions. Just by placing a stone on the seven important chakras, you can strengthen your whole system.

The Chakra Layout

A red stone is always placed at the base of the spine. Sometimes, Reiki healers opt to put two similar red stones at the top of each leg. This is for the base chakra.

The lower abdomen or the sacral chakra must have a stone which is orange.

On the solar plexus or stomach, a yellow stone is ideal. It is placed between the ribcage and the navel. If there is a gathering of tension in this region, stones which shift energy – like tiger’s eye and quartz – can be used to create an energy release.

A green stone can be used for the central or chest region to balance out the heart chakra. Pink stones can be used for emotional cleansing.

Light blue stones are good for the throat chakra. They are placed at the bottom of the throat and at the tip of the breastbone.

Dark blue stones or indigo stones are used on the forehead. Amethyst or other purple stones can also be used.

The crown chakra requires a stone to be placed slightly above the crown of the head. If you’ve selected amethyst for the forehead, clear quartz would be ideal for the crown. But if you used a dark blue stone on your forehead, a purple stone is preferable for the crown.

Reiki’s Influence on Your Aura

The universe is described by quantum physics as energy. This energy surrounds you and occupies the space near your body. Energy that interacts with you at psychological and spiritual levels is called aura. It is able to do this via channels known as chakras. When you go for a Reiki treatment, the practitioner energizes you by helping the chakras release blocked energy.

There are seven chakras in your body and aura. They are situated along the direction of your spine – starting at the base and ending at the top of the head. They have corresponding energy levels. The vibration and speed of the energy typically increases with the level. As the chakras are present in your aura too, Reiki can affect the flow of energy through it.

How Does Reiki Affect Your Aura?

Prior to a Reiki treatment, your aura is likely to extend only a few decimeters away from your body. An attunement session in Reiki with your practitioner can help make your aura strong. This can expand your aura to as much as three feet. Along with this, the session can help improve your ability to make changes in your life based on your intuition. This can go a long way in empowering you and enabling you to take control of your life.

Reiki also has an effect on the various layers of the aura. Some of the layers are the causal body, celestial body, etheric template body and astral body. These are layers that you cannot see, but are influenced by changes in your energy level. During a Reiki session, the Reiki practitioner uses techniques that help make the flow of energy optimal. The practitioner is able to do this because she serves as a channel for the energy to flow through to you.

The Power of Divination

The need to know about the future, destiny and life purpose existed in early civilizations and continues in us today. To understand divine will, we use different methods. When you attempt to get insight into life situations or questions using a standardized tool, it is known as divination. During a divination session, you can ask a diviner about aspects of your life about which you need clarity. Using tools like tarot and numerology, the diviner can tell you how you can proceed in certain life situations. You can even find out about the future using these methods.

Why Women Should Use Divination

A key reason women should use divination is because it can empower them. Through different divination tools, you can find out about your life path, your purpose, strengths and weaknesses. This understanding can go a long way in helping you make decisions. It can also assist you in making changes that can take your life in its destined direction.

How Can You Benefit from Divination?

To benefit from divination, you should believe in yourself. Most importantly, you should trust the tool you use for it. Tarot and numerology can help you stimulate your intuition. It can also make you think creatively. This can help your mind look at a situation or a problem in a new way. For instance, you may be facing issues in dealing with people in your life. In this case, if you can opt for a numerological reading, it may help you look at the strengths that lie deep within you. Once you develop these areas, it is likely that you will be able to handle such challenging situations quite effectively.

To develop your strengths, you can use life coaching. Through this, you can learn and enhance skills that you can use everyday. You can identify these skills by working with a life coach. She will be able to build a coaching program that suits your requirements best.

Symbolism and Meaning of Numbers in Your Life

In my previous post, the purpose of using numerology was highlighted. In this, I will discuss the basic calculation that can be used with numerology and the key meanings and symbolisms associated with the first few numbers.

Numerological calculations are used on your name and date of birth. Each letter is associated with a single digit number. For instance: The basic principle used by a numerologist in the calculation is reducing numbers to single digits by adding them. The only two digit numbers retained are 11 and 22, which are also known as the master numbers. Each number from 1 to 9 and the master numbers have a meaning. When they are analyzed together, they symbolize several aspects of your life.

Here are the basic meanings of the numbers:

1 – Represents individuality and independence along with the ability to reach goals, lead, pioneer and administer.

2 – Signifies closeness and support for others as well as sensitivity and co-operation towards them.

3 – Indicates the ability to express oneself, be enthusiastic, optimistic and creative.

4 – Expresses a down-to-earth attitude, sense of service, ability to work diligently, manage and be practical.

5 – Symbolizes a creative and progressive tendency with the ability to use freedom constructively.

6 – Stands for the capacity to be loving, responsible, supportive, comforting and helping.

7 – Potential to analyze and understand, and to be introspective and spiritual.

8 – Desire to succeed and accomplish, and be powerful.

9 – Can be a selfless and compassionate humanitarian.

11 – Intuition and spirituality are expressed as is the ability to teach.

22 – Lofty ideals, ability to build and be spiritual.

These are just the core tendencies expressed by those with these numbers. A numerologist will be able to analyze the meanings associated with your name and date of birth and give you a holistic understanding of what the numbers mean for you.

Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.

Tarot – A Metaphysical Tool to Help You Understand Your Past, Present and Future

Do you want to know what life could be holding for you in the future? One of the best ways to find out about it is through tarot. This is an ancient method that can tell you what your future holds. For example, it may reveal the kind of person you can get married to, or the ideal place for you to make your home.

You can use this information as a form of guidance. When you come across situations that were revealed through divination, you will be better placed to make decisions regarding them than you would be otherwise. Interestingly, tarot can also put your past in perspective and give you deep insights about your present.

Symbolism plays a big role in tarot. The cards used in tarot have images depicting art, design, archetypes and music. These come together on each of the 78 cards in a tarot deck. They symbolize elements of life, emotions, situations and lessons that we learn with time. These symbols can show you what is actually happening beneath the surface of your life’s events.

Tarot is a metaphysical tool that can help you look into your life and understand aspects that were not clear before, or those you could not see. When you are open to, and work with tarot, it can even confirm a few things that you may have always known but were doubtful of or even validate what you’ve felt. I like to call this the ‘inner wisdom’ of a person.

Sometimes, tarot can help you put issues in perspective and make choices that are right for you. I have noticed that many times, when people are faced with several choices, they pick the 7 of Cups. It symbolizes the situation they are in. The person in the card is depicted as someone who is faced with too many options and is unable to decide what he wants.

Tarot has the potential to empower you. Each time you receive a tarot reading, you find out more about your life – past, present and future. This information can be very powerful, and give you an edge in making decisions.

I’ll be sharing more details about tarot in my future blog posts. So watch this space!

Experience Personal Growth and Empowerment with Reiki

Reiki, a Japanese practice of healing, is used as an alternative – and sometimes complementary – form of treatment. As no medicines are employed in treating through Reiki, it generally does not interfere with other forms of treatment. The word Reiki means ‘universal life energy’. Healing takes place on principles surrounding the channeling of this energy. This is traditionally done by healers who have been trained by Reiki Masters. The healing technique can even serve as a tool for personal growth.

Empower Yourself with Reiki: If you face issues in dealing with some life situations or events, you can use Reiki to empower yourself. Regular Reiki treatments can help you manage you energy and feelings related to the situation. For instance, if you have stage-fright, Reiki can help you channel your energy in a way that makes you feel empowered to go up on stage and face an audience.

Find and Adopt the Best Reiki Healing Technique: When you enter a Reiki healing program, make sure that you have a clear goal. This will allow you to evaluate whether the treatment is effective for you. There are several Reiki techniques that can be used for achieving this. You can try these techniques till you find one that suits you most. One of the most important aspects to remember when you use Reiki is that the effect the energy has on your chakras is likely to get stronger with each session.

Improve Your Vibrations: Reiki can be extremely effective when you use it along with tools that can help improve your vibration. This will help you reach your goals quite quickly. Some of the simple steps you can take in this direction are eating healthy, exercising in moderation on a regular basis, sleeping sufficiently and meditating. In addition, you can also take up Yoga and Tai Chi, which can help elevate your energy vibrations.
