QUESTION:

Dear Oracle,

I am currently in school to be a healer. During this class, I am quite aware that I have a lot of current life baggage and ancestral contracts that I feel I need help with right now (as opposed to when I learn the tools myself in the healing classes). I feel as if I don't have some clearing and have my own space that the classes will not be as effective (and thus fulfilling). My problem is that a healing package, although reasonable for the amount of work that's being done, won't allow me to pay some bills over the next month. I have just started the package and it's a pay as you go situation for the next 6 weeks. I just finished my 1st week and it was awesome! I felt a clearing. But I am worried about my finances and whether or not I should keep making choices like this in my life. Choices like: If I do this, then that suffers. Because of my financial situation, if I want to go to a movie, I'm faced with that ultimatum (and this is way more expensive than that). On a spiritual level, are you supposed to live within your means? Because that then means living without. Almost living without everything, even healing. I don't understand.

 - Ayanna

 
ANSWER:

Dear Ayanna,

The Universe is a vast and unlimited thing. Within it, there is abundance but this abundance cannot be accessed by humans if we do not adhere to the following Universal Law: Always make healthy and beneficial choices for yourself. Making such choices attracts abundance in all forms to people. Unhealthy choices that are even detrimental will create greater problems, even pain and suffering.

You are trying to do something to improve the quality of your life by taking the healing classes, and improving your life is beneficial. Your guides, however, are trying to steer you in another direction. It is clear that you are meant to work to improve your life, but not in this healing program.

The message is clear because shorting yourself the money to pay bills clearly is not a healthy decision.

You will do best to stay open to how you are meant to improve your life. Continue trying to improve, but allow your guides to bring you a healthy and beneficial way to do this. You may find that a part of your life’s purpose is awaiting you in the healthier career that is meant for you.

  May you find your purpose and abundance in fulfilling it,,
The Oracle


QUESTION:

Dear Oracle,

I have been talking to this man on the Internet for a month now. We have found we have a lot in common. He has called me on the phone several times already. We both have agreed to meet as he lives in another state. But every time I mention maybe a way to meet even half way, he always is telling me how busy he is with school. And when he mentions maybe meeting somewhere, it will be the same way. Am I just wasting my time or does he just need a friend to talk to on the Internet. Thanks

- Denyse

ANSWER:

Dear Denyse,

One of the most powerful Universal Laws that impact every second of our lives is the law that says that we must be with what IS.

If we try to deny, avoid or change what IS in our lives, we take ourselves out of our own power. Even though life can be hard to take at times, we expend less trouble and energy when we accept what IS. Being aware of what is really going on means that we allow ourselves to make any necessary changes and take the true opportunities that life is trying to bring us.

On the other hand, when we try to see something that is not there, we only fool ourselves. When we fool ourselves, we often put extra time and effort into making something into something it is not.

You have tried to make arrangements to meet with him and clearly he is not willing.

Stay open and meet other people. You have resistance to doing this, but if you do not allow yourself to be stopped by excuses or reasons why meeting others is too difficult then you may find someone who IS interested and wishes to share his life with you.

 May you find the courage to stay open to meeting someone who IS going to
 better suit you,

The Oracle

Healthy Decisions
By: Kalyn B Raphael

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.

A popular new-age belief states that we create our realities - there is some truth to this. Our Souls, in their infinite wisdom and omniscience, create a great majority of our lives for us. If our lives were up to us alone, we would all change the things in life we don’t like!

Our true power as humans lies in our choices. Everything we do in life has consequences, some are beneficial to us, some are detrimental and some are neutral. We all hold inner wisdom, which can help guide us in our lives, in the choices that we make. All we need to do is to tap into this wisdom to know what is best for us to do.



Journaling-

Every day this week work to be more aware of the decisions you make, asking yourself, “Is this healthy for me?” 

In the following pages journal about the decisions you made during the day and reflect on how healthier decisions affect you, paying special attention to how much healthier decisions help you take a step towards connecting with your Soul.


Love & Light,
Kalyn

While Kalyn was completing Seek Your Soul, she offered a web site where she posted selected parts of the book and encouraged people to participate in the book and on the site. This is an entry posted by a participant regarding "Healthy Decisions".

Hi Kalyn,

I like what you have to say here. My question to you is this. If our souls are creating our lives, then any choice we make will bring us to a position to evolve. I believe there is order in chaos. I think that when we make bad choices, it is an opportunity to identify a wound that we must heal. In fact, I believe the more bad choices and the more hell we feel from them, the more the door opens to escape from the dream of hell.

Love and light,
Nathan

Hello Nathan,

I’m glad to see you on the site!

Yes, it is true that the more mistakes we make the more opportunities we have to see our wounds and to grow.

On the other hand, to make those healthy choices and to align ourselves to our Souls brings us more beneficial experiences. By “beneficial”, I mean experiences in which we are more connected to ours Souls and in which we come closer to living our purpose.

Healthy choices continue to bring us into a stronger and stronger connection with our Souls: mistakes provide opportunities for awareness, but they do not provide opportunities of higher energetic frequencies like the healthy choices.

Choosing healthy choices will be less painful for us, less problematic and it will also make our journey to connecting with our Souls or Home much quicker.

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"

The Oracle


Consulting Your Soul

By: Dr. Wayne Dyer
Recently I approached a traffic light where a man stood in shabby clothes with a three-legged dog by his side. As I waited for the light to change I looked at this scene with compassion and felt an urge to contribute something. The sign he was carrying indicated that he was homeless. The people in my car commented that he was a strong young man, there were plenty of employment opportunities, and why should anyone give to people who are capable of working. They indicated a kind of mild contempt for this man soliciting funds whom they felt "should" be working. My thoughts were on him and the fact that he cared for and fed this crippled dog. I rolled down the window and gave him several dollars for which he expressed enormous gratitude.

As the companions in my car semi-scolded me for being a sucker and for enabling him to continue to be a beggar I thought of some words of Mother Teresa. "You see, in the final analysis, it is all between you and God, it was never between you and them anyway." Truly this was not between me and my friends in the car, nor was it between that homeless man and me. It was between God and me. Something inside of me urged me to extend love and a little cash to the man and his dog. That "something" was a fleeting moment of consulting my soul.

To me, spiritual and physical are not two separate dimensions of reality. I think of spiritual practice as a way of making my life work at a higher level and receiving guidance for handling my problems. The ways in which I do this involve a few simple, basic practices:

  • Surrender is the most crucial and perhaps most difficult for me. In surrendering, my thoughts are something like this: I simply do not know how to resolve this situation and I am turning it over to the same force that I turn my physical body over to every night when I go to sleep. I trust in this unseen part of me to keep my heart beating, my blood circulating, and so on.
     
  • Accessing spiritual solutions means converting my inner thoughts and feelings from discord and disharmony to love. In the spirit of surrender and love I silently chant, "I invite the highest good for all concerned to be here now." I try to see anger, hatred and disharmony as invitations to surrender and love. With this understanding I have the option to allow spirit to manifest and work through me.
     
  • I believe my spirit is inseparable from the infinite. Having a relationship with the infinite part of myself encourages my recognition of spiritual solutions. The awareness of my infinite nature is terrific for putting everything into perspective.
     
  • My approach to problem-solving involves cultivating an empty mind. In this space I listen, and allow myself to have complete faith that I will be guided in the direction of resolution. I let go of my ideas about how something should be resolved.
     
  • Finding spiritual solutions to my life's problems always involves generosity and gratefulness. For me, this means giving my life to my soul purpose and being grateful for the opportunity to do so. I believe that I get back from the world what I put out to the world, not only physically but also in terms of my thoughts. So, I recommend spiritual practices that involve being generous and grateful with thoughts as well as actions.
     
  • Nurturing a sense of connectedness to everyone and everything invites spiritual solutions. When I see myself as connected I am not looking for occasions to be offended or to judge. I don't see anyone as my enemy or an obstacle. This is how I relinquish negative self-talk and connect to the solutions that are available to me. In moments of despair I try to affirm, "I see nothing, I hear nothing, I know nothing that is separate from me."
     
  • Finally I choose cheerfulness as a gauge of my level of spiritual consciousness at any given moment. The more cheerful, happy, contented, and satisfied I am feeling, the more aware I am of my connection to spirit.

So, does all this mean I'm suggesting that you always give money to people who ask for it? No. But I am suggesting that the next time you see someone asking for money; look at that situation as being between you and your spiritual consciousness - between you and God. Consult your soul and if you feel that you don't want to give, don't. But rather than letting anger or judgment rule the moment, offer that person a silent blessing from the part of you that is a part of him. This is consulting your soul.

Awareness and Abundance

A good practice is to bring your money into your awareness on a consistent basis. Spend time looking at your bills, your accounts, any investments, cash - physically look at the paper, the statements. In this way, you use the power of awareness to integrate your money or lack of money into your life.

Some people stay in avoidance. They avoid looking at and paying their bills until the last minute. Avoidance and denial are energies that Spirit cannot penetrate. Spirit cannot help us when we are in avoidance and denial, because to do so would cross our line of will. It takes a lot of will to avoid and deny.

A good money ritual is to keep all of your bills, savings accounts, check book and cash in an accessible place. Then, on a weekly basis pull them all out. Look at them, touch the paper they are on, connect to them.

This practice alone can do wonders in our money flow. It makes our money part of our spiritual flow.

Love and Light,
Kris


Upon posting Awareness and Abundance on the forum on the new Laws of  Abundance site, one member posted the following abundance question on the newly created forum.

Kris -

I have a question about this.  I have gone paperless on all of my bills, accounts and investments.  I have most of my bills set for auto-pay with an electronic bill-paying service.  I get paper statements once a year at tax time.  I actually review my accounts more frequently than I ever did before, because they are so accessible.  Is looking at the computer screen as effective at bringing my money into my awareness as holding the paper statements?  Is there anything different I should do on the computer to enhance this?

Thanks for your help.

Love and Light, Matthew

 

Hi Matthew,

I too, wherever possible, am paperless. What is most important is awareness and keeping your energy involved in your money.

As you know, awareness has a magical quality. When you focus your awareness on something, the something opens and reveals itself to you. When we focus our awareness on money, without the energy of avoidance or denial, it expands and grows.

This doesn't mean we should obsess over our money. What is most important is to be aware of where you are at money wise. Energetically, your money is an extension of you in your outer world. As with all things in our life, we do not want to compartmentalize or avoid parts of our energy. When we do so it stagnates and holds us down.

Love and Light,
Kris


Within this forum, two Toltec Mystery School students recently started a section as a way to share experiences as they explore this realm in their daily lives. They agreed that they will begin with the Manifesting Abundance Workbook. It is structured into weekly exercises, and they will use a thread on the new forum to share how they are doing as they progress through it. They have invited anyone interested in generating more abundance to join them--and so a group has gathered to do just that.

If you are interested in joining this free forum, go to:

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.

 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:
Imagine how it would change your life!

Although it is not in everyone’s future to be rich, we all have the ability to increase the amount of abundance in our lives. What would your life be like if you were able to increase the abundance in your life?

By using your imagination, you can begin to attract the energy of abundance into your life. Spend as much time as you can imagining how your life would change if you attracted more abundance into your life.

      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!
