The Oracle’s Universal Laws

Problems and Challenges are a part of the Earth-Life System – we cannot avoid these and we are meant to work with them to grow and evolve.

Life is riddled with problems and challenges; this is Life’s job. It is meant to give us the opportunities and experiences that will allow us to be challenged because it is only when we are challenged that we have the chance to try doing things different ways. It is only by trying to overcome and work with our life challenges that we can grow and evolve, a true purpose of ours when we are alive or in body.

Because problems and challenges can be draining, painful and feel impossible, people tend to avoid their problems, looking for an easy way or a more enjoyable way of life. This is a great mistake that sets people back – as long as Life has brought you the problem then your Higher Self has brought you the problem. The only way for us to grow into our divinity so that we may be more connected to Spirit and our Higher Selves and so that we may live our divinity is through the gifts, better known as problems and challenges, that Life and our Higher Selves bring us.

It is only those who recognize that challenges are meant to be taken on that do well in life. When we work with our problems and challenges we work to create something better for ourselves in our lives. At this point we transform pain, suffering, frustration and difficulties into something manageable that we can handle. This also brings about more joy and comfort in our lives.

An “easy way out” is not necessarily going to make life easier. While we don’t need to take on more problems than the ones that Life will bring us, we do need to recognize that we can improve ourselves and our lives by facing the challenges before us.

QUESTION:

Dear Oracle,

About two months ago I was in Houston, Texas, on a work-related trip. I ended up staying a bit longer to share some time with family. I could not believe the hospitality, weather, and opportunities (at least the one's I saw) that are available. Since then it has just remained a place (in my mind) I have visited... no attachments? Something keeps pulling me back down there. There are so many "signs" that I witness throughout each day that are pointing me towards that direction... I keep asking myself, " What is it? " " Should I be down there? " Am I missing something? Someone? " I know that I will follow my heart, but if any light can be shined on my situation, I ask to be witness. Thank you.

 - Paul

 ANSWER:

Dear Paul,

The way people attract experiences and opportunities into their lives is only one of two ways: either they attract it out of their weaknesses or it comes from their Higher Selves, but this is less common.
 
Because our purpose in life is to come closer and closer to our own divinity, we are given experiences that, when worked through, will take us in this direction. These experiences take the form of challenges and problems and are “given” or attracted to ourselves. We attract situations, people, jobs and experiences into our lives through our own energy. To raise our vibration, bringing us closer to our Higher Selves, the energy that attracts these is our lowest vibrating energy (since once it is refined by working through an experience it will raise, bringing us closer to our own divine selves).

Divine intervention in our lives from our Higher Selves is rare. Divine intervention occurs when our Higher Selves bring a needed experience, often for reasons that are beyond our own understanding. Divine interventions can include anything from illness, death, fame and fortune, love, a particular job and so on. Divine intervention is rare though, because generally we will attract the experiences we need in our lives on our own.

Paul, you have asked about Texas and whether it is a direction you are meant to move in. A more precise question would be whether you are drawn towards Texas from your wounds or whether it is a direction from your Higher Self.

Of course, whether you move to Texas or not is a decision that only you can make. What may be significant that you may wish to consider is that people often ‘jump from the frying pan to the pot’ when the grass seems greener. At this point they are not dealing well with their current life circumstances. Instead of working these problems out, they jump to greener pastures. The real problem arises when their problems increase, because the experience or circumstance they attracted has come from their lower vibrating energy, amplifying their problems. This is how Life gets our attention. When we avoid, deny and do not take on our problems, then Life amplifies them, like a yellow light flashing before turning red, telling us to stop. On the other hand, if your attraction to Texas has a higher purpose to it then this opportunity will grow. Instead of being a whim that will come and go, a strong desire will grow over time.
 
You would benefit by making sure that this is not a choice to avoid problems where you currently live. If it is a move that you feel you are meant to make then you may notice yourself ending cycles where you are now as a chapter comes to a close before the next one, in Texas in your case, begins .If you find that the chapter does not have closure in your life, then this may be a sign that you have not completed what you need to work through and you would benefit by working though the challenges you have before you.

  May your life be full of love and light,
The Oracle

QUESTION:

Dear Oracle,

I would like to ask if it is possible for a person to live in a state of constant joy, without fear. This is what I want for myself - eternal happiness from within. Though I feel this at moments in my life, without my awareness there are times when my memory gives me a mechanical reaction from my learned self, not my true self. Can you recommend any meditation or exercises that will keep my true spirit on the surface in situations that my learned self, my mind has reactions too. Thank you!

- Raquel

ANSWER:

Dear Raquel,

Actually, you will never find your “true self” on the surface. Looking here is misleading you. On the surface reside our false selves, a self that we put forth based on learned or “appropriate” behaviors. Our false selves become a coping mechanism in life that provide us with the “right” answer, but not necessarily with an authentic life. Our Authentic Selves reside at a deeper core and to connect with this, we need to go deeper into ourselves by growing and by strengthening our weaknesses.

You are asking how to overcome your false self, but this is impossible as it can only be transformed. This false self is your lower vibrating aspects and it is what will continue to attract experiences and circumstances to you, which you spoke of. Instead of trying to remove this, meditate it away or overcome it, you would do best to heal your weaknesses and face your Life challenges. This will raise your vibration and transform these false aspects of self.

As to a meditation or exercise, there are so many available that you can choose one which suits you. The trick is to bring the energy you gain from the meditation into your life or to practice the exercise in your life. When applied these ways, meditation or exercises will naturally work on strengthening your weaknesses.

 May your life be full of love and light,
The Oracle

This issue’s article is taken from Kalyn’s newly released book, Seek Your Soul, which is a guided year-long recorder leading us to connect with our Souls in simple, effective and enjoyable ways.

Home, as we are referring to it here, is a state or sense of connection, peace or bliss that we experience as a result of connecting with our Soul.

Connecting with our Soul is a main purpose in our lives. We use life to come to know ourselves so that we may know how to recognize the presence of our Souls in our lives and so that we may live from this connection. We all pursue this, whether we know it or not, regardless of our spiritual or religious beliefs. We pursue it when we pursue enjoying our lives. All humans pursue trying to make the best life for themselves possible, regardless of their situation. To pursue our Soul is to make the best of life possible from a place of our divinity. Our purpose and how we see ourselves, our lives and our experiences now include a divine sense.
We can all be told, so that we believe and have faith, that we have Souls that we ought to try to connect with. However, until we have experienced it for ourselves and until we have felt the overwhelming love and other indescribable senses that come from connecting with our Souls, we simply don’t have the knowingness (a conscious awareness that is not a thought or a feeling) that we have a Soul or that the connection is worth pursuing.
Many spiritual paths seek this connection with Home, a place of knowing their Soul and living their divinity from this connection. It is sought because to know ones own Soul, to know our True selves and to remember this about ourselves transforms our lives. When we remember our Home our outlook shifts: our priorities in life, what is important to us and how we feel about what happens in our lives we now see from a new plane. Our perception has expanded and now includes our Soul’s perception. We start to see our lives more so as our Souls see our lives.

When we remember our Home our lives start to carry more purpose to them. We all remember what it was like to see things as a child, and how our perspective changed as adults. Suddenly, we saw another perspective as adults so that our priorities and feelings shifted. When we connect with our Souls we see our adult lives in another perspective, but in this perspective we can’t help but have a sense of our own divinity. This sense means that we hold more love in every moment of our lives; we know our purpose, and our purpose brings us direction, authentic self-worth from our Soul and bliss, a state that is often mistaken for a state of happiness (but is far greater in any sense imaginable).
To remember our Home and to live our lives with a sense of our Soul enriches us every way possible. This enriched, fulfilling and purposeful life is called Heaven in most religions, which we can experience while living when we connect with and live from our divinity, our Souls.

Journaling-

Seek Heaven this week. Every day spend five to ten minutes pondering what Heaven is and what it means to you to experience Heaven on Earth.
Try not to limit your seeking and instead let your imagination paint a picture for you of what it would be like to know your Soul, to know that your Soul is present in your life and to explore how your life would look if you experienced Heaven on Earth.
Use the following pages to write down what you imagine.

Love & Light,
Kalyn

"I have the book now and I love it!  I am so looking forward to doing the exercises which feel like having a quality date on a regular basis with my Soul - and on a very personal basis. It is wonderful Kalyn!
Love and light,
Denyse"

"Denyse, what a precise way to describe it! A quality date on a personal basis. I like this very much! Reading the articles and then turning within brings a feeling of warmth and comfort and togetherness - like spending time with your very, very best friend. Which our Soul is. I am looking forward to this too.
Love & Light,
Makayla"

	Abundance In All Things! Abundance is an essence that exists in infinite supply in the universe. Abundance can take on various forms such as an abundance of love, money, happiness, joy, success, and so on. Generally, we know what abundance is, but bringing abundance into our daily life alludes many of us.
Manifesting Abundance uses the two spiritual laws, "as above so below," and "as within so without." Many have heard of these laws but are not certain how to put these laws into effect. To put the law into motion you must first be able to access spiritual essences that exist in unlimited supply on the levels beyond physicality. Then you must align the structured self to this essence, bringing the essence fully into your inner world. When your inner world is completely aligned to the essence, in this case abundance, it must manifest in your outer world. It is the law.    To find out more about how to create abundance in your life, please go to: http://laws-of-abundance.com/  Testimonial: "I really enjoyed it.  What I noticed about myself is that I would grasp at making an altar for my bills, and come to appreciate them and look at them as symbolic,  but also I repel actually taking the time to work with self and energy first. " -T.B. "I also bought the Abundance CD and since doing the processes on it, I am much more aware of the abundance of things all around me. Work has taken on new dimensions and I have excellent future prospects. There is an abundance of love in my house; family is strong and stable. There is a great feeling when my three bodies are aligned to the essence of abundance. There is more energy in me. Love and Light, Francisco"

Feng Shui Abundance Tip:

    In Feng Shui we work with energy, shifting and changing it to enhance its effect on us and our lives. This is primarily done using universal laws of energy.

    However, you don't have to be an expert to work with energy and to attract abundance into your life!

Try this simple tip: Come from an abundant place!

When spending money, come from an abundant place within yourself. People often worry about how much they spend or how much things cost when they spend money. Focusing on the things we worry about creates a contracting (or shrinking) energy and this is not beneficial to associate to our abundance. On the other hand, if we focus on the abundance that exists in life, the abundance that we currently have, then the energy of our spending is expansive.

Everything in our lives has an energy blueprint to it – that blueprint determines physical characteristics. Our financial abundance is increased or decreased based on the energy we carry and place into our “money” energy. So make yours expansive and abundant!

      Do you wish to enjoy a life of abundance? Sure, it sounds great, and you think that it is too good to be true! It is not too good- it takes work on your part!

    If you are willing to open to life, to change some behaviors and to learn how to attract abundance into your life, then try the Manifesting Abundance Series! The series was created for students who wanted to experience more abundance in their lives, and they are! The Manifesting Abundance Series includes two CDs with processes to help you bring the energy of abundance in, and an Abundance Workbook, an 8-week workbook with daily exercises and behaviors to help you know what abundance really is.

You won't know abundance until you breathe it, feel it and think it-
and the quickest way to learn these is through the Abundance Series!
