Developing Precognition

Could You Be Stepping Into Danger or Taking the Hit for Someone Else? Developing Precognition Will Help You to Stay Out of Trouble.

The Intuitive Learning Circles are great at developing precognition, bringing intuitive hits, hunches and other unconscious information up to the surface to be examined more closely. Especially if you have learning difficulties or your inner guidance is blocked for some reason. That’s why I’m sharing this Mind Exercise from Intuitive Learning in the New Paradigm. By playing, you’ll have the opportunity to engage your imagination and shed some light on potential situations where you might be better off staying out of the way!

If you’ve ever stepped into a compromising situation or gotten caught in the middle of a fight between people, you know what it feels like to suddenly find yourself caught in the middle of a “no-win” situation. It feels horrible! Especially for highly sensitive people, who often find themselves in the middle of highly charged, emotional conflicts.

“If only I knew beforehand or had some kind of “spidey sense” that there was going to be a problem, I wouldn’t have even shown up!”

But wait. That’s not really so far out of the realm of possibilities. It’s called developing precognition or as I like to say, listening to your intuitive hit.

Clearing the Way for Making Smart Decisions

Use Your Inner Guidance and Gut Instincts to Get Out of the Way and Learn How to Be in the Right Place at the Right Time.

You’ve probably had an experience of knowing that it just felt wrong to go to a certain place at a certain time. Then later, you find out that you were right. Something unfortunate happened in that very same place around that time! That’s your precognition at work and it’s a darn useful skill to have, especially now, when times are so unstable and chaotic.

In the old paradigm based on greed and elitism, it’s been commonplace for people to try to control things by invading other people’s space or interfering with important personal projects or relationships. This can happen on a physical level, but it can also happen on an emotional/mental level, which often causes emotional shock that sits frozen under the surface of our awareness. We have expressions for when these kinds of manipulations happen. “Get out of my space,” or “stop playing mind games with me,” are just a few. Unfortunately, when this happens, emotions can easily escalate out of control and our normal awareness of danger can get blocked!

Developing precognition through accurate intuition is one way to help you keep your mind on your own business and protect yourself from dangerous situations.

Preparations for Developing Precognition

Begin by activating your five senses so that your intuition can come forward and give you the help that you seek. You can use these affirmations:

“I reclaim and reconnect with my senses.”

“I clear them up so that I can accurately sense my environment.”

“I use them to sense what will keep me safe, productive and well.”

“I become aware if I’m intruding on other people’s business.”

“I can clearly sense what will help me to _______________.”

Next, gaze softly at this Circle to help you gently release any shock that might be under the surface for you. Imagine the lines are getting all wavy and loose.

Give yourself more help by making repairs to any chakras that might have been affected by all the chaotic energies in the environment.

“I smooth out any jagged energies, addictions, viruses, reversals or blockages in my field.”

Use this next Circle to help you develop precognition in your current situation by tapping into your unconscious mind. Gaze softly at this Circle and ask yourself:

“Is there a situation coming up where I need to get out of the way?”

“Is there a situation where someone is getting in my way or blocking what I need to do?”

Be patient and relax into your body. The Circle is helping you focus in on pertinent unconscious information. Your answer could come in the form of a feeling, an image, words or a combination of them all.

Let’s get some more information…

Sometimes we’re empathically picking up on someone else’s situation.
Could that be happening in this case?

If so, is there any shared karma? Have you let your protection down?
Do you need to pull your energy back and re-establish protection?

Is there an action you’re thinking about taking that isn’t in your best interests? Do you need increased awareness to take that action?

If the answer you get is “no”, count yourself lucky and keep up the good work staying out of trouble!

If the answer is “yes” or “maybe,” keep going with this exercise to find out more about what’s going on and what you can do about it.

Continue the Mind Exercise for Developing Precognition

1. Slow down and ask for more information about what’s really going on. Use your imagination and see the landscape of your mind slowing down too. Things may simply be moving too fast for you to get out of the way when trouble is about to happen.

2. When things are chaotic or moving too fast, it’s easy to get distracted and fall into scams, traps and deceptive mind games. Plus, people are more likely to be mixed up in situations where they really don’t belong. Use this Reiki Chakra Key to open your Third Eye to intuition and common sense. You can use these positive affirmations to help:

“I open my Third Eye and let it balance.
I use it to separate what’s true from what’s a distraction or all-out lie.”

Being in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time

3. Remember the relationship or situation where you think there might be a problem. While you think about it, gaze at this Circle and ask your gut a couple of simple “yes” or “no” questions:

“What is the situation? Is there any danger in it?”

Once you find the situation, ask yourself:
“What is the danger here? Can I tell how I’m participating in the situation?
Is there an important reason why I’m participating or considering doing this? Is it worth it to put myself in this situation?”

“Am I placing my hopes into something that isn’t in my best interests?”
What does my inner guidance say about this?

4. Continue your self-inquiry:

“Would I be pulled off track or doing harm to myself? Would my projects be harmed? My loved ones? If so, what is the problem?”

It could be timing, placement, priorities, a belief, an agreement, a habit or something else…

Take your time to get as much information as you can.

5. Would being in this situation have a negative effect on your boundaries? Your prosperity? Your health or well-being? In what way?

6. Sometimes, how people see you can be a source of the problem. People often project what’s going on within themselves onto other people. Check in with this Circle to see if anything like that could be involved. Note – what’s being projected onto you could be either unflattering, flattering or both!

“In this situation, am I being projected on?”

So, now you have a lot more information to work with as you decide what to do!

7. What is the best thing to do in this case? If you need to move out of the way, see yourself doing that in your minds eye. If you need to let go or say “no”, see yourself doing that. Whatever message you get, see yourself taking your own advice.

“What do I need to do?”

Finish this part of Developing Precognition with these affirmations:

“I resolve to be in the right place at the right time for my highest good.”

“I stay out of trouble and follow through on my true priorities.”

“I close the doors on old habits, distractions or misconceptions.”

“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Congratulations!

Take a moment to thank yourself for Developing Precognition, a gift that will save you a lot of time and grief in the long run! Now is a good time to take a walk or go out into Nature to help this all integrate. Be prepared for new ideas and solutions to make their way towards you.

Once you’re clearer about your situation, you may want to go through one of these two strengthening exercises, depending on what your concern is:

1. Standing Strong and Grounding in the Truth.
2. Separate from Negativity and Develop Healthy Boundaries.

Navigate Your Karma

Navigate Your Karma: Understanding How the Root Cause is the Answer to Resolution ~ with Rheanni Lightwater

Your Root Chakra Is Deeply Connected to Personal and Collective Karma that Influences your Physical Conditions.

Your chakras are part of how you use your energy to manifest your goals and your root energy provides a foundation for your basic physiological and biological needs. This includes your needs for air, food (nourishment), water, shelter, warmth, sex, sleep and method(s) of communication. This exercise is designed to help you navigate your karma, especially around these basic needs by gently reprogramming your Root Chakra.

In these exercises, what is meant by “karma”?

Being human at this time and on this planet is your karma (as well as mine) and we share that karma collectively. In my experience, the most useful explanation of karma is simply the physical and spiritual law of cause and effect. “For every action, there is a reaction.” “What I put out comes back to me.”

Karma = thoughts, decisions and actions that you’ve followed through on.

Whenever you have a thought, decide to follow through on it and then take action, you have created karma. As far as the Cosmos is concerned, there is no judgement about it or suffering assigned to it, only consequences. In other words, for anything that’s put into motion, there will be some kind of effect.

Let’s use the example of your birth. Certain thoughts, decisions and actions your grandparents took caused them to create the circumstances for your parents to conceive you. Congratulations, you incarnated! Your karmic seeds for being a human have ripened, for better or for worse! That goes for me too, both good and bad, or as I like to put it – preferred and unpreferred.

There is always a mixture of preferred and unpreferred karma. It’s never all bad or all good. Even the terms “good” and “bad” are only relevant to your goals and point of view. You may say that your job situation is bad karma, yet to another person, having any job at all could be seen as good karma to them. The individual’s perspective makes all the difference.

Timing and circumstances are also important considerations. For example, you may see that new car as good karma today and tomorrow you get into a bad accident by driving too fast in it. Is it “good,” “bad,” a punishment? No, simply the natural consequences of actions you’ve taken. However, if you decide that it’s a punishment and then you act on that decision, you are technically creating the karma for “punishment.” The Cosmos is neutral, but you have condemned yourself.

Now, let’s say you decide to deny your responsibility for your part in that accident and continue to lie to yourself about it, a karmic pattern begins to form (or continues). Denial only plants the karmic seeds for more denial and lies which then leads to punishment, then more denial, which then creates more lies… and so it goes – on and on and on. In Buddhism, it’s called samsara – the cycle of suffering.

The Way Out – You Can Navigate Your Karma by Setting It Right.

Situations are neutral and more often than not, our unpreferred situations actually help us to learn and propel us further on our spiritual journey.

Another more poignant example is our karma as it pertains to something collective, like the coronavirus. The overall atmosphere of the pandemic and its accompanying financial upheaval has undeniably been a group experience and therefore a clearcut example of collective cause and effect.

Yet the disruption provides valuable experience as it assists us in understanding why we need to deal with social injustice or climate change. We might also discover ways to create more preferred financial structures or ways to live and communicate more peacefully.

How can we navigate our karma as individuals in the midst of this collective karma?

There are many choices people made during the pandemic and subsequent consequences. Some people made a decision to ignore safety recommendations and follow through by going out without protection. “I went out. I got sick. I should have listened!” Some went out and had little or no immediately perceivable consequences. “I went out. I didn’t catch the virus. I’m all that.” Others might have done everything right and still have a terrible time. “I did everything right. I still got the virus. Why am being punished?”

The structures of the status quo tell us that we are “sinners” and that we need to be obedient to an angry, male god. However, the Cosmos is neutral. We are really our own judge and jury. Our perception and what ideas we buy into are the key factors for how we either resolve the karma or intensify it.

So here we all are, sitting in the middle of our collective karma. What’s the best thing to do? For me, the initial answer is to come clean with it. Accept my part in what’s happening and learn from it. Be open to more life-affirming thoughts and decisions and then take action on them.

Sounds simple, yet so very difficult. After all, there are those pesky consequences to consider!

Here’s what I do, and it seems to work pretty well. I offer it up for your consideration:

I accept what’s happening and how I feel about it (personal responsibility).
I become open to new thoughts about hope and forgiving myself.
I gather my courage and awareness to make a new decision based on what I would now prefer to experience.
I take action on steps 1, 2 and 3 with care and patient consideration.

Taking Care of the Root Cause Through a Mind Exercise Using the Intuitive Learning Circles

Let’s begin by changing our agreements around punishment and being so very black and white, good and bad about everything. Your nervous system holds the energy of those agreements. To let go, start at the bottom of the line and the bottom of your spine. Imagine you can get to the bottom of the very first agreements you made about punishment. As you move up, you can imagine locks unlocking – each vertebrae is being freed from the chains of outdated, oppressive agreements. Go up all the way up to the top of your spine.

“I release my agreement with being a”bad” girl or boy. I forgive myself completely.”

“I give up shame, blame and punishment.”

“I release my judgement and let myself off the hook.”

“I let go of any agreements I have that karma is ‘bad’ or ‘good’.”

“I decide that karma is neutral. It’s what I decide about it and do with it that matters.”

“I decide to accept what’s happening and learn more life-affirming ways of being, based on what’s needed now.”

What other agreements would you like to change?

Consider a current experience you’re having that you would like to navigate differently. One experience might be your fears around astrological events such as Mercury in Retrograde. This regular occurrence is often collectively thought of as “bad” where negative experiences and breakdowns in communication happen more often.

Take a few minutes with this next Circle to turn down the volume and pay attention to how you’re perceiving your current situation.

Once you’ve calmed down, ask yourself:

What karmic experience is a concern to me right now? How am I perceiving the situation?

What are my fears?

Am I present in my body?”

Note: You may want to go back and renegotiate some more agreements…

It’s important that you be fully present to make effective corrections.

Continue to relax and let your 3rd Chakra get connected, open and balanced at your solar plexus (the area where your ribs go up in the front).

Your Essential Self is the embodiment of your instinctual nature and the keeper of your personal energy. It’s most efficiently located in the 3rd Chakra to help you manifest, create happiness and maintain health.

In times when you’re experiencing unpreferred Karma, it’s pretty common for the Essential Self to go into a fight or flight response. It may get angry and resist or it could run away, go into hiding or even dissociate. Are you experiencing one of those responses now?

Remind your Essence that you have given up punishment, that it is safe and that you have completely forgiven yourself.

“I decide to stay present, in my body, even when I am afraid.”

Imagine that you can pull yourself back into your center. You can return from places where you are still stuck in fight or flight or “punishment.”

Next, decide to utilize life affirming ingredients to create more preferred life affirming experiences.

“I decide to utilize life affirming thoughts, words, decisions and actions to create my experience.”

“I decide that I will clear life destructive patterns of karma and set them right.”
“My actions are life affirming.”

Integrate Divine Protection into your Root Energy.

“I close down harmful energy channels.”
“My mind and body are open to receive generative life force.”

“I connect with life affirming communications.”

Now, turn your attention to your Root Chakra at the base of your pelvis to check out the energy there. It may feel stuck, detached, wobbly, reversed or clogged. If that’s the case, don’t worry! You can clear it through your intention and attention with the help of the next few Circles…

It helps to imagine the Root Chakra as a brilliant, red vibration swirling in a clockwise direction. Breathe deeply and let this Reiki Star raise your vibration there.

Feel free to move at any time in any way to embody your experience. Take all the time you need to do that.

Repair any damage or reversals in your Root Chakra.
Parts of your subtle energy system might be shut down entirely.
Allow this symbol help you make corrections. If your energy feels jagged or disjointed, stay with the Key until the energy smooths out.

“I repair the glitches, holes and blockages
in my energy system.”
“All shut downs and reversals are gently corrected.”

If you need to, go back to the Red Reiki Star and raise your vibration some more…

Make room for Joy
Visualize the energy of Joy being placed in the center of your Root Chakra.
Let a joyful, life affirming foundation replace the old, collective foundation of sin, punishment and burden!

This foundation is becoming a base for new preferred decisions and life affirming karmic flow.

Now meditate on the Earth Chakra located just below your feet.

Establish a healing connection with Mother Earth.
When you’re ready, visualize the energy of this chakra connecting with your Root Chakra. Let this connection bring strength, hope and positive grounding.

Note: You may need to clear destructive blueprints again.

Clear a space for preferred karma to take root within the Self.

Like clearing a field before planting, use this symbol to dissolve destructive mental and emotional patterns. Visualize letting go of all the guilt, shame and fight or flight responses you may be holding. See those karmic patterns like dark clouds that you can dissipate into sunlight and clear blue skies.
“I dissolve destructive patterns that interfere with my health and happiness
and send them to the Light to be purified.”

Notice how much more aware you are about how your health and happiness is deeply interconnected with the health and happiness of others.

Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

Take some time to close any pathways that lead back to punishment.

All holes are sealed and healed.
I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

“I’m learning to recognize how spirit guides me through events.

Finish by Checking Back Into How You’re Perceiving Your Situation.

Breathe and balance out your senses again. Once you’re ready, ask:

“What is the karmic experience I’m concerned about again?

How am I perceiving the situation now?

What are my fears?

Am I present in my body?”

Note: You may want to go back and renegotiate some more agreements…

Congratulations!

Now that you’ve opened up to more productive ways to navigate your karma, you have the opportunity to experience life in a whole, new way!

Mind Body Integration

Challenges to Mind Body Integration

To facilitate mind body integration using the Intuitive Learning Circles, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction to full embodiment is more complete.

Mind Body Integration

The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. If you feel resistant or stuck, cross or uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body and go back to the Circle, breathing patiently. See if your thinking starts to move again. Let negative self-talk go by breathing through it.

Fixated Thoughts, Conflicts or Shock

If you go completely blank or are unable to access anything, the question or subject may have brought up an inner conflict. If that happens, look at this Circle (#32 Condor from Gifts from the Rainforest). Follow these directions:

Take several deep breaths and relax while you gaze into the Circle. Imagine that you can use it to focus in on a thought, experience or conflict that’s causing a problem for you, like a bull’s eye.

Imagine the problem is melting or send a beam of light directly to the blockage. Allow your laser beam to break up the fixation or melt it until it’s gone. Take all the time you need and don’t forget to add any stretching, movements, rolling, shaking, etc., you may need to completely clear the energy.

Once you’re finished, go back to where you left off and complete whatever you were working on.

Somatic Movement Re-Patterning

The Corpus Callosum is a part of the brain that facilitates communication between your left and right cerebral hemispheres. When dealing with learning difficulties, it may help to perform simple cross crawl movements while you gaze at this Chakra Key to balance the chakras at the corpus callosum.
Feel free to move at any time in any way to help you embody your experience!

Homeopathic Readiness

The Intuitive Learning Circles are like homeopathic remedies that work on a vibrational level. If you don’t need the remedy, it will do nothing.

So, if you’re already clear and in balance, looking at a Circle will do nothing. If you don’t really need a process you’ve chosen, the Circles will do nothing.

Individual Circles can, however, help you access answers. Just ask, “what do I need here?” Then trust the answer that comes. Maybe there’s another kind of process that would help you better at this time.

Willingness

Finally, relax! The Intuitive Learning Circles aren’t about “doing it right,” they’re about opening up to the possibilities!

How To Trust Your Gut Instinct

This Mind Exercise is about how to trust your gut instinct. Let’s start with the definition of instinct* that I like to use:

“Instinct is primal and body centered. Its purpose is self-preservation. Instinct tells us that we’re tired, hungry, sad or afraid through a full body response – a feeling, not just a thought.

For many of us, the natural instinct for joy may been suppressed, mistuned or perverted by unnatural expectations and cultural conditioning.

Whenever instinct is out of balance, it’s easy to get lost. There is a lack of courage and everything is about avoidance – avoiding getting caught, procrastination and avoiding responsibility. In extremes, this gives rise to panic, scapegoating and disassociation.

When instinct goes out of balance it’s usually about something you fear. Or you could be disoriented by confusing changes in your external world.” ~ Intuitive Learning in the New Paradigm by Rheanni Lightwater

The purpose of these Mind Exercises is to help us all learn to think and experience ourselves differently. The hope is to facilitate an upgrade in how we can organize our minds, energies and bodies in a way that can meet the very real challenges that are facing us.

The foundation of the New Paradigm is about creating common ground for the common good, based on equality, co-operation, and balanced prosperity. Knowing how to access, utilize and trust your instinct is a very big part of what needs to happen.

To have your own experience with how to trust your gut instinct, choose a situation that you know would be joyful for you, yet have some resistance towards.

What would I really like to experience?

Once you have that situation, follow the directions for this simple sequence of Intuitive Learning Circles. They’ve been put together to help you relax, contemplate your natural instincts and integrate that information to the best of your ability at this time.

How to Trust Your Instincts

It’s easy to get confused by what other people want or social conditioning about what’s acceptable. Follow the steps to make sure that you’re reading your energy and not someone else’s!

Step One: Return to the clarity of your true Essence by getting in touch with your unique Soul vibration or color. The way you find your own color is to remember a time when you successfully manifested something that you really wanted. Notice if a particular color or felt sense comes to mind. Relax into this Soul Prayer Chart with these affirmations and see if you can make that same color and vibration stronger and more vibrant. If so, that is your Soul Color!

“I relax into myself and recognize my unique color vibration.”

I know who I am. I distinguish my energy from the energy of others.”

“I use my Soul Color to nourish and strengthen my natural healing abilities.”

It will help to imagine you can bring all the energy into focus on the center, open space of each Intuitive Learning Circle.

Step Two: You feel instinct in your solar plexus area, where your 3rd chakra is located. Use this Reiki Chakra Key to let go of any tension in that area. Breathe into it and move around in any way that feels good. Let the energy open and get balanced there.

“I let go of the tension in my solar plexus.”

Step Three: Without being firmly positioned in the “home base” of your solar plexus, it’s difficult to fully access the qualities you need to trust yourself and be courageous about what you want.

Use these positive affirmations to help you:

“I am grounded and connected in my solar plexus.”

“I am upright and facing forward.”

“I hold space in my gut for my own Essence and allow others to hold space for theirs. My boundaries are intact.”

Mind Body Integration

For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!

Step Four: Now it’s time to “reorient” your conscious awareness inside that area, which will center you so that you don’t get confused or dyslexic. This affirmation works well:

“I am inside of me. Everything else is outside of me.”

This is especially helpful for those who 1) are “up in their head,” 2) often feel dissociated, or 3) have the twisties, a phenomenon where a person loses their sense of where their body is in space.

Step Five: The Essential Self is in charge of how you’re using your personal energy or “mana.” Confirm that you’re creating reciprocity by including yourself in the equation. A) Use the Circle to gather up your energy in your solar plexus area.

B) Place your objective in the center of the Circle like a bull’s eye.

“I focus my attention and intention on actualizing my objective.”

C) Send your energy directly to it.

D) Allow the energy of your intention to come back to you and keep that going for several cycles.

“I am invested in my own wellbeing.”
If you are unable to do that, can you tell why?
Is the timing incorrect?
Is there another important reason?

Step Six: Imagine your Soul can surround you with a ring of fiery courage and determination.

“I am able to reconnect with my courage and determination.”

“I actively call on them to strengthen and support me.”

“I choose to use energies that will strengthen and support me.”

Step Seven: Now take a few moments to connect and “fine-tune” your senses so that you can listen to your own Soul more clearly, rather than interference from the outside world. You can adjust them now, like the volume on a radio dial:

“I connect and rebalance my senses.
Not too high and not too low –
just right!”

Once you feel that, what does your Soul tell you to do about your situation? Does your body agree? What do you need to do to follow through? The answer will be visceral.

Step Eight: Guidance that comes from balanced instinct is direct and action oriented. Its purpose is for you to be okay, so if you’re getting too elevated or emotional, use this next Circle to help you pull yourself back in. Be patient and listen to what your body is communicating to you.

What do you need to do?

Once you get an action statement that feels right, Congratulations! You might want to make a note of it. The critical mind often likes to override the gut instinct with a lot of second-guessing, procrastination and feelings of overwhelm.

Step Nine: Make sure you don’t wander back into any old harmful patterns or mindsets that you just cleared.

“All holes are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

The following extra-intuitive activities aren’t required, but they can really help you excel in creating the very best of your talents, interests and passions…

Future Pacing

Future pacing is a way to deepen the effects of any mind body healing by projecting a preferred outcome into the future. You can use that idea to solidify what you’ve just learned about how to trust your gut instincts.

Remember that when instinct is out of balance, it’s easy to get lost. There is a lack of courage and everything is about avoidance – avoiding getting caught, procrastination and avoiding responsibility. In extremes, this gives rise to panic, scapegoating and disassociation.

I think most people agree that it would be better to get back into balance and go for joy instead!

If you agree, join us in Future Pacing with Hypnotherapy!

Protected: How To Be More Intuitive

March 14, 2018January 6, 2024

Clear Perception – a Mind Exercise

Intuitive Guidance Using the Loyalty and Clear Perception of Dog Medicine:

Your gut instinct is an awesome inner guidance system and has access to all kinds of information that you’re not consciously aware of. The only trick is that you need to be paying attention! Luckily, you can learn to use Dog Medicine with this Mind Exercise to hone your intuitive abilities and develop clear perception about where you’re heading.

This symbol accesses inner guidance about protection. Gaze at it softly and ask:

“Am I heading in the right direction?”

If the answer you get is “yes,” you don’t need this particular exercise right now.

If you don’t get a clear answer because your mind has gone blank, you would be wise to go through Formula #1 Healing Emotional Shock first, and then come back to this one.

However, if your answer is a clear “no,” take twenty minutes or so out of your schedule and go through this Mind Exercise. A few minutes now could save you a lot of time and trouble later!

First, a word about environmental changes and getting a grasp on the larger picture…

Most people know on an unconscious level that a shift has occurred. However, the conscious mind may still be acting as if everything’s still the same.

In order to ADAPT, it’s very helpful for our minds to have signs and maps to assist us as we navigate the new terrain. That is the reason and purpose for all the symbols and Intuitive Learning Circles on this site.

For example, If you meditate on the “map” available in this image, your mind can get a better grasp of how it can reorganize your energy in the New Paradigm we’ve entered…

If You Would Like To Navigate Your Journey with Clear Perception, You’ll Need to Know If You’re Heading in the Wrong Direction ~

There are several reasons why you might be unconsciously heading in the wrong direction.

For example, your senses may have gotten all knocked out of balance.

With so much going on, it’s easy to be distracted and confused by all the intense change that’s going on around you.

Fortunately, dog energy works incredibly well to help you with your inner guidance system – warning you to slow down and get your feet back under you.

Gaze softly at this Reiki Chakra Key to get your bearings again. Take a minute or two to consciously gather up all your senses and really connect with them for greater awareness.

Another possibility could be that your energy is having a difficult time adjusting to all the significant environmental changes that are taking place. Sudden reversals, blockages and changes in momentum can cause our subtle energy fields to react in unusual ways.

This Correction Key can help you correct any rough glitches or reversals that you may be experiencing in your energy field.

Relax with it for a few minutes until things smooth out and you feel more like yourself again.
Be sure to do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

Your senses could be turned up too high or too low.

That often happens when our emotions get out of balance. When we spend too much time in the watery depths, we can start to fantasize about how we would like things to be, rather than acknowledging how they actually are.
It’s natural to do that, however, we need to be able to pull back into the here and now and not get too carried away.

Imagine you can use this Circle to adjust the volume for all your senses! Breathe in and take all the time you need.
You don’t want to miss some important information or an opportunity that you need to take advantage of. Dog medicine is here to tell you that something really important is happening right now and you need to be paying attention!

Connect to the new flow of Chi’ available in the New Paradigm. Before you continue, let this symbol help you make changes and connect with the generative energy flow of the New Paradigm.

“I close down harmful energy channels from the past.”

“I adapt to the positive flow of chi’ available in the New Paradigm
to the best of my ability.”
“I connect to the new, life affirming channels of communication.”

Your energy may be scattered because so many things are going on. Or your timing could be off, causing you to jump ahead before it’s a good idea to do so.

Take a moment and bring yourself back into the present. Open and close your hands, take a look at the date and time. Remember your name, the city you’re in or how old you are. Doing these things can really help you get present and aware of what’s going on around you.

Once you feel present, ask yourself:

“Am I jumping to any conclusions about my situation?”

If your answer is “yes,” stop and reconsider before you make any moves. Retrace your steps and see where the error is.
Taking steps one at a time is essential whenever you’re in unfamiliar territory! What else might you need to be aware of?

You may have gotten disconnected from your instinctual nature.
Use the Circle to help you reconnect so that you can get back in touch with your gut instincts, your environment and the things that really matter.

Once you feel connected again, ask yourself:
“Am I getting instinctual messages about things I’m doing or not doing?”
“Is there any part of me that’s holding onto old energy or keeping me unhappy?”
If your answer is “yes” to that last question, it would be wise to stop and follow the guidance you get if you can.

Finally, your energy could be misdirected. We can use intuition to guide us properly, or we can misuse it by giving into wishful thinking, illusion, paranoia and listening to those who would love to sell us up the river with false claims.

Do you sense anything that’s being misused? Is there an old habit that needs to be deconstructed or something that’s draining your energy?

Balanced intuition and instinct can tell you when something really important is happening that you need to be paying attention to!

Before you plunge into the great unknown, take a few more minutes to go through this centering exercise, Develop Clear Perception, where you can make friends with dog energy and get all kinds of insight and guidance.

Slow Down and Get Your Feet Firmly Planted On the Ground

Gaze softly at the center open space of this Circle while you go through a few positive affirmations. If there’s a question, just be open to your gut response.

“I slow down because things may be moving too fast for me to sense the truth.”

“I’m willing to admit I don’t know what’s going on. Asking for help is a blessing.”

“Is my inner guidance sending me a warning?”

“Do I need to let go of something? Change something?”

“Do my instincts want to redirect my attention to a solution or something else?”

“In either case, am I willing to listen and learn?”

You may be surprised at the answers that are coming to you. If it didn’t work, relax! You can go back and do it again. Journaling is often a help.

Be sure to check the directions again and follow them if you’re not sure.

Use this next Circle the same way with this affirmation:

“I allow clear perception to heighten my instincts and intuition.”

Then ask:

“Am I willing to trust in the power of balanced intuition and instinct?”

“Is the ‘vibe’ around me helpful or harmful?”

Very interesting, isn’t it? We instinctively know when the “vibe” is right or wrong, but we often don’t appreciate the messages we get. We doubt and second-guess ourselves or we might willfully ignore our inner guidance system and try to force our way through.

Look at the Circle again and ask,
“Am I heading in the direction of my best interest?”
“Am I making decisions that are in my best interests?”
“Am I taking actions that are helpful, harmful, misguided or simply ineffective?”
If you’re not clear yet, keep going with the exercise. You may need a few more easy corrections before the truth emerges.

Clear Perception and Being Present

Often, how well we listen to our inner guidance is affected by how present we are in our bodies. It’s called gut instinct because when we’re really present and we can feel it in our solar plexus (the soft area in the front where our ribs go up).

In times of confusion and stress, the solar plexus chakra can close down or get blocked off. Use this Chakra Key to make sure it’s open and functioning properly.

You can use the Circle below with its positive affirmations to help you become more centered and aware in that solar plexus area. Just relax and breathe while you gently look at it for a couple of minutes. Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience…

“I detach from confusion and chaotic energy.”
“I am present, upright and facing forward. I am willing to hear the truth.”
“I maintain a position that keeps me balanced, centered and grounded in the truth.”

Once you’ve finished centering yourself, hopefully, you’re feeling much better!

Use Dog Medicine to Handle Your Agreements Appropriately:

Another big reason why we might not perceive clearly is because there’s some kind of problem with an agreement or commitment we’ve entered into on some level. In this busy, modern life, people tend to take their agreements too lightly and don’t realize how important their word is.

Perhaps paying attention to what we say seems like too much effort or too complicated. Yet, if you really want to be be loyal to yourself, being clear about your word and your agreements is super important. Especially agreements that you’ve made with yourself!

Here’s some tips about how to handle agreements successfully:

You can keep your agreements and stay in integrity with your word.
You can release agreements when they’re complete or no longer serve you.
Or, you can consciously re-negotiate them when they need to be changed.

By the way, it’s also a good idea to pay attention if someone hasn’t been keeping their agreements with you. If that’s happening, it’s best to deal with the indiscretion asap. When we allow someone to break their word with us and then say or do nothing about it, we lose our own integrity by being disloyal to ourselves.

Stay Calm and Take a Few Deep Breaths:

It’s okay. Our situations are changing at a rapid pace and so are our priorities. To help you identify problem agreements, use this Circle to help you slow down again. Focus on yourself and your current goals. Ask yourself:

“Have I been trying to keep agreements that are harmful to me? Is it time to renegotiate a pertinent agreement? or Am I overlooking an important agreement that I need to follow through on?”

If so, can you tell what those agreements are about? Take all the time you need with this… what insights do you get? If you ignore them, they may turn around and bite you!

Use this Soul Contract Circle to imagine that any harmful agreements you may have are like contracts that can be melted down to adjust for what’s needed or burned up entirely. Use the Circle to visualize all harmful contracts interacting with a sacred, violet flame. Here’s some affirmations to assist you if you like:

“I release all agreements that no longer serve me.”

“I let go of ___________. I reframe ____________. I stop ____________.”

Possible new agreements could be:

“I am loyal and true to my Self. My needs are a priority.”

“I have faith. I listen to my instincts and take good care of my Self.”

“I ________________________________.”

Use Dog Medicine to Help You Find Your Way:

Now it’s time to redirect your attention to helpful people, opportunities and places. For additional help, ask these questions:

“What is my priority at this time?”
“What is my natural place in this situation – where do I belong?”
“Am I operating in the New Paradigm based on equality, co-operation and balanced prosperity or the old paradigm of fear, dissatisfaction and greed?”

“Does something need to change?”
“Is something out of place, missing or out of order?”
“Am I listening to bad advice?”
“Am I heading in the right direction?”

Dissolve Destructive Blueprints

Use this symbol to help you gather up any misunderstandings, mistaken ideas or miscommunications and release them to the Light.

“I release all obstructions to clear perception.”

Let any confusion or heaviness you may feel lift up and out of you like dark clouds dissolving into beautiful sunlight.

Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

Close the Door on Confusion and Turn Your Energy Around.

Finally! It’s time to close the door on all those misuses of your time, attention and energies!

“I close the door on any drain or strain on my time, space, attention or energy.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

“I trust the wisdom of balanced intuition and instinct.”

“I have clarity about which direction I need to go.”

Congratulations!

You now have clear perception about what’s really important to you and some guidance about what to do about it. Not only that, you’ve just gotten a key insight that’s going to save you a lot of trouble in the long run!

Grounding in the Truth and Your Power

A Mind Exercise for Grounding In The Truth ~

Many people realize how important grounding in the truth is because external power struggles can so easily uproot us from the truth about what’s best for us.

Staying centered requires that you know how to use the power of your mind to control your own energy.

To find out if this Mind Exercise can help you, gaze at the symbol in this picture for a moment and ask:

Are you having difficulty getting and staying grounded?
Do you feel caught up in a power struggle?
Do you need to disconnect from a meddling or intrusive person?
Are you feeling trapped by other peoples agendas?
Have you been wasting energy on the past?
Are you worrying or fearful about the future?
Is it hard to think straight or get dependable guidance?

Here’s how Grounding in the Truth works:

Put both feet flat on the floor and start with your arms and legs uncrossed. Simply gaze softly at the images while you repeat the affirmations that go with them for several minutes. Relax and breathe. Here’s an example:

“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”

“I use them to be present and aware so that I can actualize my Soul’s purpose.”

“I use them to help me protect myself and resolve my concerns appropriately.”

“I am aware of what’s most important.”

**In times of difficulty or CONFLICT, your energy might feel very jagged or erratic. Take a moment to smooth things out with this Correction Key.**

You will probably feel a lot of energy moving – that’s all right. It just means that the Circles are working to focus your mind and clean up your energy.

You will know you’re done when the energy calms down and you can think clearly. Then you can move on to the remaining Circles with each of their affirmations to complete the process.

Once you’re done, remember to relax and allow your energy to settle.

Mind Body Integration

For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!

Step One: Begin by accessing a strong connection with your Soul Resources.

We each have our own Soul vibration that amplifies our own autonomy, integrity and good health. Check how your connection is doing with this Soul Prayer Chart and this affirmation:

“I access my unique Soul Vibration for clear and true guidance.”

You’ll know it’s right if the “vibe” feels right in your solar plexus.

Step Two: Establish a strong intention stated in the positive.

You might want to write it down. Examples:

“I maintain my integrity and am true to myself.”

“I gather my resources to be successful in my current endeavors.”

“I disengage from this power struggle.” etc.

“I ________________.”

Step Three – Integrity

Strengthen your resolve by detaching from harmful sub-conscious distractions:

“I stop wasting my energy on lies, mind games and no win situations.”

“I disengage from family patterns of control, intolerance and/or grievance.”

“I release all subconscious agreements to tap into other people’s energy or to allow them to tap into mine.”

Step Four ~ Self-determination

Connect with your breath and affirm to yourself:

“I reclaim the energy, power and gifts of my Soul.”

“I use them to be present and alert.”

“I use them to actualize my Soul’s purpose.”

Step Five – Centering

Bring your awareness and vibe to your heart center and keep breathing:

“I am centered and my heart is strong.”

“I call on my deepest guidance to be present with me.”

“I let go of anxiousness, pain and sorrow.”

“I maintain healthy boundaries. My life is my own.”

Step Six – Balance

Take all the time you need with the Earth Chakra Key until you feel stable and balanced. See if you can still feel your Soul Vibration.

“I slow down and step carefully.”

“I feel the Earth beneath my feet.”

“I am connected with Mother Earth.”

Step Seven: Integration

To help you ground, gaze softly at this symbol and ask your Spirit to help close down destructive energy channels from the past. Then, ask to be filled with generative life energy and connect with life affirming channels of communication.

Cross and uncross your hands over the midline of your body as many times as you like until the transformation feels complete.

Step Eight: To Each Their Own

Gracefully release all issues, karma and emotional baggage that don’t belong with you:

“I surrender other people’s issues, emotions and karma so I can uncross my own path.”

Once that feels complete, call back what genuinely belongs with you:

“I set things right so that I may move forward in peace.”

Step Nine: Grounding

Place both your feet on the ground with your hands on the inside of your knees. Relax and allow your energy to organize into a balanced flow.

“I am re-organizing around what’s important.”

“I am aligning with the supportive energy of Mother Earth.”

“The Earth supports me and I am grounded.”

Step Ten: Completion

Close off the doors and pathways that lead you away from your Soul’s intended path. While gazing at the Circle, imagine any holes or pathways that might have come open during this meditation. They are the ones that are finished and you are done with.

“All completed holes and pathways are healed and sealed.”

“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Congratulations! Your energy is more your own and you’ll have a much easier time staying grounded now. Remember, a person whose energy is balanced and grounded benefits everyone. Be sure to take some time to relax and rest.
