Neutrality is essential for a psychic -- I can have an opinion (trump is a dick, for example) but that should never influence what I predict will happen

and I really do feel as I am super good at never allowing my opinions (or hopefully never) to influence my #predictions
​
most people have a pre-set #lens through which they look and anything that "could happen" is run through this filter first -- this is a serious mistake . . . you will never "see the future" clearly as long as you expect it satisfy your 'pre-conceptions"

there is no psychic who "knows all"; we are all just people trying to find our way

imperfect, searching for love, searching for meaning

we all have a hard road . . . and so those around you who "struggle", who may not (in your eyes) have their "shit together", try to always have kindness in your heart for them, as we may not always understand their struggle, nor history

remember, we all stumble; we all want a pat on the head and a kind word

there is a reason I was always "good" with people in pain and not really always down, nor interested, in working with people who had it (at least in their own minds) "goin' on"

the "woke" culture peeps are not my tribe

this approach (and attitude), of course, is good for the soul but bad for the wallet

love is denied to far too many of us; but for each of us, sharing that love not only will enrich the lives of those around you, it will enrich yours, as well
​
be kind -- that is my wish for each of you and my wish, as well, for myself

trying to find a "who was I in my past life" match is kind of, emotionally, like trying to find a partner on match.com (or whatever the modern swipe left swipe right version is called)

everyone at first is "the one" and then you look at them for a while and are not so sure and then maybe your initial enthusiasm wanes and you're over it

same for me and "past lives" . . . every possible "this is it" is exciting . . . you kiss some frogs perhaps you find your prince -- it is no different for me with all my photo overlays and astrology charts; I am trying to find my "soul mate" . . . and when you think maybe this is it, no matter how many times you may have been disappointed in the past

when you stumble on to a new photo and new profile, it is easy for you to get hopeful and start to think "maybe this one's it"

it is a pretty overwhelming (and good) feeling

and yes, I get it that everyone would be happier if I was "psychic enough" to just automatically know

but, I don't and, far as I can see, no one else has ever been able to do this automatically either

E-V-E-R

trust me when I say to you that

trying to understand and emotionally #absorb this is

#complicated

VERY VERY complicated
​
thank you 

to succeed in ANY endeavor you must create, within YOURSELF . . . an emotional harmony in alignment with the state of being of someone who "succeeds"

this is critical and no long-term success can happen without it

people who have suffered any type of loss or reversal have a "problem" in that the primary mode of thinking is typically about what has happened to them (this happened to me after my daughter died in 2006)

and so their focus -- and energetic "output" . . . is in "reverse"

some ways work better than others in helping people stay afloat while they're "reversing" just as some methods work better than others to help people move from reverse to forward

but all of these processes, no matter what they are, must be grounded in this simple but powerful truth

people can "smell it" if you don't believe in yourself

and until you find some positive inlets in which to dock the rowboat carrying your self-esteem

you will never trade that for a yacht in the harbor

success is a state of mind, not that the outputs are "imagined" -- because that is a state of "delusion"

but it is a state of mind in this respect -- what you think within, your emotional/physical/intellectual "state"

determines how others respond to you

without positive responses from others, you get nowhere

no clients, no jobs, no relationships, no anything

except a quicker and deeper retreat into solitude . . . we all need time to re-charge but we cannot "get ahead" without positive relationships with other people

and we can't have positive relationships with other people

unless we first have that with (and within) ourselves

and the key to making that happen . . . stop focusing on the things that threw you (for a time) into reverse

examine the past as a lesson but don't use the lesson as your song
​
use it as fuel to move ahead and not as an anchor to park

sooooooooo . . . talking to/with "dead people"

sometimes you want to talk with Grandma but the lines are down or she's playing pinochle with your dead Aunt Susan or the weather is whack or . . . maybe she thinks you need to figure it out yourself

other times, maybe she really wants to "tell you something" and you're not down with listening. As I've said a million times: "if I didn't want to take time to talk with you when you were alive, why would I want to talk to you now?"

are there "dead people" who talk, or want to talk?

yes

but sometimes Aunt Susan can't say what you want to hear

because, truth be told, your "minutes plan" doesn't include having access to what she might say

and, if Aunt Susan and Grandma are (forgive the irony) just dying to talk with you

doesn't mean you are obligated to sit down and listen

the choice runs both directions
​
#the_lines_are_DEAD

the #gaslighting of people in the "New Age Community" is really pretty disgusting

not everything that people are "going through" is all that easy for them to just "change their thinking" and poof, instant bliss
​
I think people do way more harm than good by this self-entitled song and dance, all (imo) designed to make people feel "superior" through love and light shaming those who are having a tough time . . . #alarm_clock / #not_so_woke

I always thought it would be super cool fantabulous totally bitchin' peachy keen if I could find ALL my past lives say back to 1800 and make a big giant score sheet and show how they all looked alike and do all the Astrology and just lay it out . . . piece by piece

this is is how it rolls -- these are my peeps, here are the (likely) rules . . . a pattern, like a giant tapestry

and, with this giant tapestry, a #template

to discover past lives for others . . . and to "prove" on some level that reincarnation was legit

in large part -- and yes, this, I believe is (irony or no) "karmic" and likely a "job theme" of days past

to follow up on my rebel heretic past

as someone disgusted with the fuckery of Christianity

who comes to say . . . y'all are missing "the point"

so (again), "in large part", this tapestry road map score card

is/was an attempt to "take on" Christianity and Buddhism and anyone else

who may spit out nonsense designed to control people

not that the original ideas of the "originators" weren't dead on

but the #followers distort it, twist it, and use it as a club to beat down the masses

and that goes against my original impetus "for coming" which was to help people lead better lives

. . . there are always going to be bullies and tyrants who can't let people live in peace and well . . . on and on the fuckery rolls

it makes sense that in the 20th Century a religious heretic -- (because this, for sure, is my karmic template
and, for sure, 100 % guarantee

I have been one to stir some shit and often ended up with a flame beneath my feet or a tight little necktie attached to a tree)

might choose to #incarnate as an actor, because this ability to talk and persuade would be a developed skill

. . . straight from the opening bell, I have been #blessed with a #noticeable power to "talk", smooth eloquent a charmer, always always always, from toddler right on through

a carry-over, most likely, of my pervasive job "theme" of one who "tells a story" and tries to convince people to not let bullies continue to beat them down

and, also without doubt, there are past lives as people with "the means" to indulge who were "good looking" and charming and charismatic and likely indulged a little "too much" in the sensory/sensual side of life -- a balance to lives in which I may have been a monk who didn't talk for years upon years upon years

my life always repeats these two themes: a monk who isolates himself for large blocks of time and a wild child who lives life flat the fuck out . . . from one extreme to the other

a balancing act that can only be seen as in balance from seeing it "from above"

I probably don't have a lot of past lives as psychics, per se, but I do believe my primary past life job theme is #religious, without a doubt

a heretic, a trouble maker, someone who comes to say "this is wrong, here is how the universe and God really works"
most of my "actual" past lives are probably then trouble makers and people who stirred some shit and caused people "in power", like the Catholic Church, perhaps, as an example

some problems

long story only sort of long . . . it is unlikely I will ever have my complete "karmic score card"

but even without it (and who would believe it, anyway, really ??)

I am coming to some level of awareness, and peace

with my natural inclinations

and my life makes lots more sense when understood in the context of one who makes God his "job"

and refuses to accept "doctrine" if it doesn't vibe with what's in my heart

Religion is a weapon to beat you down

and all I am saying is that it is wise to look at things with clear eyes and think for yourself

reincarnation is the truth but I can't prove it, but in trying to prove it, I have learned something else, perhaps even more valuable
​
end of (this) rant

you cannot sit on the sideline and say love and light three times and it is all gonna be ok

you have to take an active role is speaking out against racism and sexism and yeah, you're gonna piss somebody off

and there are times when having a live face to face may be uncomfortable or scary (because I have had dozens of these; one of the benefits of being an obsessive body builder) -- but a whole lot less uncomfortable or scary than how it feels to be "driving while black" and pulled over by a good ole boy police man

or being a young gay man or woman and a bunch of closeted power trippin' dudes get in their face

yes, it would be nice if we could all sit in our chakra bubbles and just create our own reality and it will all be ok

but not everyone starts with the "same reality" from which to create

and much of American domestic policy is taken from old training manuals right now of the KKK

if you don't stand up for women or you don't stand up for minorities, actively put yourself on the line when it's necessary and be willing to risk something

then fuck ya

you're part of the oppression

white men need to put the white privilege down for a second and try to make the world a better place
​
and no, it is NOT a better place when it is run by white men for their benefit only

you think people are giant reptiles and the Earth is flat and Elvis is alive, no worries

I think I had a concurrent past life as a Playboy Playmate, so I am totally down with "unusual" ways of seeing the world :)

my issue is not your conspiracy -- I hold some ideas others think are insane, yet I believe them nonetheless; so I am right there with ya . . . my #issue is people who hold a "belief" and then denigrate and bully those who don't share this same world view

that is MY issue and that is why I #fight with certain groups

it's not what you say . . . it is the bullying tactics that follow

no one has a monopoly on truth and no doubt there is shit "behind the scenes" that is different than what we are "told"

but, dear Jesus, do y'all have to be such intolerant belligerent dicks ??
​
civility is #good

Past Life "memories" are not stored in "the brain" -- just as consciousness is not fully stored within the brain

it is an external impulse -- analogous to a flashing light

that is perceived, much like an encrypted credit card purchase online . . . and reassembled by various mechanisms that ARE within the brain

consciousness is external -- the coding for taking the encrypted stimuli IS, though, housed within the brain

which is why many assume consciousness is "based there"

but the memory itself is external . . . and to tap into these memories

you can't "use your mind"
