Karmic Entanglements With Adversity
A Transformation Game for Handling Karmic Entanglements ~

Transformation Games can help you to identify problems, navigate change and clarify what’s really important to you. Simply relax and gaze at the Intuitive Learning Circles while contemplating the accompanying questions and positive affirmations. Let them help you clear karmic entanglements that pull you into harmful situations.
Relax and follow the directions… your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek!
Welcome to our Transformation Game for clearing karmic entanglements that tap into the Tarot card, Nine of Swords and the I Ching Hexagram #47 ADVERSITY.

This process is much like a past life regression. You will have the opportunity to clear karmic entanglements that have outlived their purpose and become a burden to your evolution.
It’s important to clear all Soul Contracts and agreements. If they aren’t resolved completely, the karma is still entangled and your mental continuum continues to behave as if the agreement were still in force. This causes a lot of unnecessary suffering for you and those around you.
What Are Karmic Entanglements?
Let me give you an example: A woman who was having trouble feeling settled in her life decided to try playing the game. While going through it, she glimpsed impressions from another life, seeing bare feet and a beat up old suitcase. Later on while she was dreaming, she saw herself clearly living a past life as a Hungarian orphan in Nazi Germany.
In her dream of that life, she was continually used as a slave and moved from place to place without being able to feel safe. She was eventually turned in to a work camp and lost her life without having any control at all.
As the woman brought herself back into her present life, she realized she was still operating under the cultural agreements that were in force back at that time.
Through the safety of this simple Transformation Game, she could release the shame, guilt and collective karma that was forced upon her. Gently, it brought her patterns of lack and uncertainty into consciousness so that she could relax and choose to move into a happier, more productive life.
Easy Steps to Play the Game:
- Select an issue that’s causing a blockage in your mental continuum. Use it as a springboard to accelerate your spiritual growth and prepare you for your next step on your healing journey.
- Follow directions to release your connection to negative influences from the past.
- Read each step with its question or affirmation, one at a time.
- Think about it while looking with a soft gaze at the Intuitive Learning Circle that goes with it. Make notes about the answers you get. That information will help you unravel your entanglement effectively.
- Remember to RELAX! The Circles and symbols help you to access a light hypnotic trance where you can access your akashic records and gently clear harmful karmic entanglements so you can make room for positive, proactive change.

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.
When you gaze softly at the Intuitive Learning Circles, you are using self-hypnosis to clear out interference and reorganize how you use your energy. You may experience subtle energies running through you, or the Circles may move, rotate or even change color. That means that they’re working! Just keep breathing and relax. When you release your agreement with negative karma, fear or falsehood, you could be detaching from old family patterns, outdated religious vows, or even a larger, collective entanglement like racial slavery. Not only will you feel better in the days and weeks that follow, you’ll be clearing away obstacles to happiness!
So, let’s get started!
Step One:
What is a situation in your life that is causing you adversity? Gaze softly at the Circle below and relax as you contemplate the thoughts that come…
“What is harming me? What do I find particularly upsetting?”
Are you taking this too personally? If so, would you like to let it go?
Remember to make notes, even if they don’t make sense at first.
Step Two:
As you gaze at this symbol, imagine that you’re scanning for information in your unconscious mind.
“Is this situation interfering with me on a karmic level?”
“Am I interfering with others on a karmic level?”
“Am I taking on karma from others?”
“Is this actually my issue? Someone else’s? Is this a collective pattern? Am I willing to let it go?”
Step Three:
It can help to identify the possible players in your entanglement more clearly. Use Snake medicine to help you call the information out from your unconscious mind…
“Can I tell who might be involved with this situation?”
Step Four:
Use this Intuitive Learning Circle that accesses agreements being held deep within your nervous system. With it, you can release karmic agreements you may have with others that keep you entangled with them. Imagine that the agreements are like contracts being thrown into a violet flame where they can burn up and diffuse the situation safely.
“I release all cultural agreements that connect me with harmful patterns such as racism, sexism, hatred, death and prejudice.”
“I release any vow, debt, curse or obligation that is secretly affecting me.”
“I let go of any judgement, shame, blame or self-harm I’m unwittingly participating in.”
“I release my agreements with ________________,” etc.
“I decide to source my responses from a place of Joy and Gratitude rather than greed, fear or vengeance.”
Step Five:
Now it’s time to become aware of the thoughts and energies behind what you’re experiencing.
Use Mosquito Medicine to gather past thoughts and beliefs about this situation.
Are the thoughts your own?
Are you tapping into someone else’s thoughts or emotions in any way? Some of both?
Can you tell what the nature of those thoughts are?
Do you need to go back and release any agreements about what you just discovered?
Are you resonating with an energy that’s causing you harm?
If you are, use Stingray Medicine to bring your attention to the low vibration of that energy in your field.
The next few steps will help you to detach from it…
Step Six:
Are you tapping into beneficial energy that will support you and your experiences? Gaze softly at Butterfly Medicine to help you tap into a more nourishing connection with your environment.
“I utilize beneficial energy from my environment to nourish myself and create my experience.”
“I intend to create joyful and life affirming experiences and learn from them.”
Step Seven:
If there are any parts of you that are still hanging out in that harmful experience, use Wasp Medicine to pull yourself out of that space completely.
“I pull myself back and out of this experience of adversity. I am present and in my own space.”
“I take ownership for my true experiences and learn from them.”
Step Eight:
Are any parts of you still stuck? Could you be tapping into other people’s pain?If so, Condor Medicine can help set you free. Relax with this Circle and bring your attention to the sensation of “stuckness.” Once you find it, imagine it’s like an iceberg in the ocean and that the heat of the Sun is melting it away until it has completely disappeared.
Once it’s gone, there may be others. Keep crossing and uncrossing over the midline of your body until all the icebergs have melted away and the ocean is clear sailing.
Step Nine:
Empower your ability to respond and detach from the ADVERSITY and karmic entanglements in an effective, peaceful way. Use Divine Connection from Soul Prayer Charts to connect in with the personal power that comes from your Source.
“I exist and am empowered to control my actions for my protection and benefit.”
“I come from a place of Gratitude and Joy, rather than fear, greed or vengeance.”
“I am empowered to detach from the ADVERSITY and the ways that I am entangled with it.”
“I decide to set my karma right and use it to help, rather than hurt me.”
“I learn from my mistakes and turn it around.”
Step Ten:
Use Early Morning Storm Medicine to visualize a clear slate.
“I detach from the ADVERSITY and the ways that I perpetuate it.”
“I move forward with joy and gratitude, rather than wallowing in fear or adversity.”
You may need some help from The Essential Human (1 – 42) or Divine Nature Activated (1 – 73) to clear away the shadows completely.
Going through this process will help you draw on the kinds of spiritual / emotional ingredients that will redirect your energy towards creating true joy, freedom and prosperity that’s manifested through gratitude rather than greed.
Step Eleven:
Now that your energy is clear, take a few minutes with Starlight Medicine to center yourself. This affirmation works well:
“I am inside of my body. Everything else is out side of me.”
Once you feel centered, ask yourself:
“Rather than ADVERSITY, what would I rather organize my karma to create?”
Place the answer that comes from your Soul in the center, open space of the Circle and allow your mind to reorganize itself for a few minutes, both crossed and uncrossed.
Step Twelve:
Are you currently using your karma to create what you just came to? If not, take a few minutes to sort things out.
“I detach my energy and karma from this karmic entanglement. I release any commitment I had to feed it, store it or utilize it.”
“I take ownership of my own karma and make a commitment to utilize it for the benefit of my Soul’s purpose instead.”
Step Thirteen:
Continue sorting things out by tending your own karma and allowing others to handle theirs. Imagine that you can untangle from other people’s emotions and return their issues and karma by surrendering them to the Light. That way they can find healing.
“I release other people’s karma to the Light. To each their own.”
“I tend to my own karma instead and clear my burdens by sending karmic seeds of ADVERSITY to the Light for purification.”
Step Fourteen:
It’s time to make certain your karma is properly placed in your own personal garden that lives in your heart using Sacred Garden Medicine.
“I utilize beneficial energy from my environment to nourish myself and create my experience.”
“I intend to create joyful, life affirming experiences and learn from them.”
Step Fifteen:
Before you move on, relax with this symbol for a few minutes to help you integrate the generative and protective flow of energy of the New Paradigm into your personal garden.
“I close down any harmful energy flows from the past.”
“I am open and clear to receive generative life force.”
“I connect to the new, life affirming channels of communication to help me manifest my personal dream.”
Step Sixteen:
Use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to send the mental and emotional patterns of ADVERSITY to the Light to be purified. Include societal blueprints related to sexism, racism, violence and hopelessness.
Then, surrender the cultural patterns you’ve been using to take on other people’s issues or intrude on other people’s business.
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!
Step Seventeen:
Bring closure to the karma by closing any pathways that lead back to the past or the collective pattern of ADVERSITY.
“All holes are sealed and healed.
I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Congratulations! You’re ready to approach your situation more objectively, with a different perspective – without all those karmic entanglements!
If you like, you can optimize this process by consciously shifting your focus to what you want to do now. Use the following sequence of Circles to help you. Simply gather your energy into the center of each Circle to facilitate the change:
“I focus my thoughts on productive activities that are in my positive self interest.”
“I connect to balanced prosperity, which is flexible and adapts to what is.”
“I forgive myself completely and reclaim my innocence.”
“I forgive others so I can move beyond the illusion of separation.”
Seal and heal all remaining pathways that are open between you and the entanglements associated with ADVERSITY and ignorance.
Congratulations! Your new awareness makes it more possible for miracles to occur! Be sure to take some time to integrate. Go for a walk. Enjoy the healing that comes from Nature.
*Please note that we are all infinite beings in an infinite universe – as new circumstances or events change, we may encounter new karmic entanglements and Soul Contracts, even with the same people we just cleared. However, you can use this process as many times as you need to.

Unearthing Emotional Conflict
A Transformation Game for Handling Emotional Conflict ~
Transformation Games help you to identify problems, navigate change and clarify what’s really important to you. Simply relax and gaze at the Intuitive Learning Circles while contemplating the accompanying positive affirmations that help you unearth emotional conflict using the I Ching and the Tarot.*
Relax and follow the directions… your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek!
Welcome to our Transformation Game about Hexagram #6 – Conflict

Sometimes the reason we’re experiencing emotional conflict is because we’re being dragged into unhealthy patterns from the past. These could be societal expectations, a family pattern or it could be an unhealthy, entangled relationship you have with your own self or another individual.
The I Ching says about CONFLICT:
“You may be facing a major disillusionment in your life as you begin to realize that what you believed to be a universal truth is only your subjective view of the situation. You will have to reconsider your premise more realistically. The need for an inner adjustment yielding a more harmonious outlook is indicated.” ~ Hexagram #6 CONFLICT, The I Ching Workbook, R. L Wing
Hexagram #52 MEDITATION has another caution about conflict, “If you attempt to force stillness upon restless desires you will only create inner conflict and resentment. This can be dangerous. Attempt internal composure through relaxation and MEDITATION.”
Quiz: Are You Experiencing Emotional Conflict?
To find out if either of these scenarios are happening for you, gaze softly at the Intuitive Learning Circle and ask yourself:
“Am I tangled up with someone else’s belief or desire?”
“Is an entanglement or misunderstanding pulling out of the present and into an old mindset filled with conflict?”
“Am I in danger of being dragged into an unhealthy trajectory that isn’t my Soul’s path?”
“Am I spending a lot of time wishing things were different and wanting to go back to ‘happier times’ when things seemed to make more sense?”
If the answer you get is”no,” that’s great! Your Soul is in charge and you’re staying grounded in the New Paradigm of equality, co-operation with Nature and balanced prosperity!
However, if the answer you get is “yes,” “maybe,” or “sometimes,” you may be losing your footing, getting confused or even worse, weakening your connection with your Soul. What can you do?
You may feel a lot of conflict over this issue or you might even have experienced a recent shock that blocks your ability to perceive things clearly. Take several deep breaths and relax while you gaze softly at this Circle to release shock and inner conflict.
“I relax and allow any tense thoughts to melt away like ice under the heat of the Sun.”
You can see an iceberg out there floating and the Sun is so bright that the iceberg starts to melt and you can see it breaking apart… until it’s completely melted away. There could easily be more than one. See them all moving around and melting into different configurations until eventually, they disappear.
“I allow my energy to loosen up and let go until the tension is completely gone.”
Mind Body Integration
The Intuitive Learning Circles work best when you look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed, so move around in what ever way you feel would be helpful.
Why? Because the brain and the body communicate with each other through one set of channels when you are uncrossed and another set when you are crossed. If you’re having trouble getting the information, you might be able to access it through movement.
Part I. Determine What’s Involved and How You Can Heal it.
1. Some Inner Conflicts Are Caused by Old Intentions that Need to be Released.
Living in the Aquarian Age is very different from the Piscean Age and you will have different priorities now. For example, sacrificing or taking on other people’s pain to heal it for them is no longer a viable pathway to healing. In the New Paradigm, you help to heal the world when you heal yourself.
If old intentions are not cleared out consciously, they can fester under the surface and interfere with what you really want to create. Help yourself now and prevent trouble later:
“I clear away unhealthy, outdated or compromising intentions.”
“I stop sending energy to other people’s intentions.”
Are there any CONFLICTING intentions that you’re inadvertently sending emotional energy to?
2. Identify Delusions and Projections that Can Cause Emotional Conflict.
Take a few moments with this Circle to relax and contemplate your situation. How are you seeing your Self in it?
Whatever comes up, does it seem like an accurate reflection of what’s really happening in the present? Ask yourself:
“Am I operating under a false idea that’s being projected onto me?”
“Am I being tempted by lies about who I am or what I really want?”
Or
“Have there been so many changes that I need to see this situation completely differently now?”
If so, use this Circle to help you burst the bubble around whatever misunderstanding or falsehood you’re dealing with. Note – There may be quite a few!
3. Identify Mistaken Ideas that Can Cause Emotional Conflict.
See if you can center yourself so you can find out exactly what’s causing problems for you right now. Gaze softly at the Circle below and imagine you’re looking at yourself objectively. Ask yourself these questions:
“What is the biggest challenge I’m facing right now?
What am I telling myself about it? Is that the truth?”
“Am I sending energy to a mistaken idea or false premise that’s interfering with my truth or ability to succeed?”
“Am I willing to ask for the very best possible outcome and receive the best possible help for achieving it?”
4. Get Specifics About this Particular Emotional Conflict.
Ask yourself if your energy is actually tangled up with someone or a group of people around this issue. If so, can you tell who it is?
Are harmful or controlling thoughts being directed towards you?
What are your impressions about how you’re entangled?
Your Soul has a unique signature that identifies you, much like when you sign your name. However, if you’ve been embroiled in a conflict for some time, the signatures of others may actually be blocking your Light and genuine intent.
As you gaze at this chart, can you see your own signature or is it unclear? Ask yourself:
“Are there any markings in my aura that are confusing me?”
If so, use this Soul Prayer Chart to help you clear away any confusing signatures – like erasing graffiti markings.
Are you giving yourself a hard time with your own thoughts or negative self-talk? If so, what is the nature of those thoughts?
If this was a book, what would it be called? Are you ready to be done with this story yet?
Is there an energy drain or harmful habit involved?
If so, close the drain down to the best of your ability.
Then, send loving, healing energy to where the drain was and fill it up completely.
Are you able to protect yourself and stay in control of your own space?
If not, release your agreement to hold space for others or old problems in your energy field.
“I clear out interference and old patterns of conflict.”
“My space is my own and my Soul is in charge of it.”
“I let go and allow others their own space.”
Is the conflict you’re concerned about affecting your health or safety? Is it affecting your ability to prosper? If so, can you tell in what way?
To resolve the conflict, is there something you need to add?
Something you need to take away?
Something that needs to be re-organized?
5. Make a Decision to Detach From Harmful Influences.
If the answers you get are distressing to you, it’s time for your Soul to either: reclaim your personal authority and detach from the conflict. Or, RESOLVE your inner conflict so that your energy can stabilize and ground in the New Paradigm.
If you need to detach, choose aspects of your Essential Self from The Essential Human using the Medicine of Early Morning Storm. Ask for numbers between 1 and 42 that need to detach.
Note – Once you’ve detached, the conflict may still be there, but you’ll be relating to it differently.
Examples: Relax and use this suggested sequence of symbols and positive affirmations from The Essential Human to help you detach…
“I decide to detach from past resentments and the conflicts they create – in the past, now and in the future.”
“I let go of the confusion around this conflict. I now choose thoughts that support my freedom and happiness.”
“I stop focusing my mind on this conflict. I now turn my attention toward helpful and productive solutions.”
“I am able to let go of harmful influences from the past. I fully accept my ability to succeed in my true intentions for myself.”
6. Decide to Reconnect with your Soul.
If you need to reclaim your authority, reconnect with your Soul and let it help you set things right.
“I decide that my Soul is now in charge. I let go of mistaken ideas, flattery, coercion, shame, blame, guilt and punishment.
I let go of the desire to take things personally or waste my energy on lies, no win situations or emotional conflicts.”
“I learn from past mistakes and they are forgiven.”
“I reclaim full connection with my Soul.”
“My Soul helps me detach from false, harmful influences and clears them away. I have full protection.”
“I follow the guidance and integrity of my Soul.”
7. Dissolve Destructive Mental and Emotional Patterns:
Imagine all those emotional conflicts and the ways you get caught up in them are like a dark storm cloud trying to surround and engulf you. This symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints will help your Soul clear the negative pattern. All you have to do is breathe and have the following intentions as you gaze softly at the image:
“I surrender all the patterns of this emotional conflict and any ways that I attach to them. I send them to the Light with Compassion.”
“I release shame, blame, falsehood, entrapment, gullibility, guilt and ____________.”
Simply see the cloud ascending up to the Light until it has disappeared into it. Then, visualize yourself standing in the middle of your own personal garden, filled with beauty and brightly colored flowers.
Please note: It’s time to stop sending destructive energies or emotions into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death or emotional conflict!
8. Say Good-bye to Old Pathways of Conflicts.
Before you go – close the doors to all that conflict so you don’t keep recycling finished business! Use these positive affirmations to help you:
“I seal and heal all pathways that lead back to conflicts, confusion, punishments and suffering.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Part II: Reclaim Your Integrity and Sense of Inner Peace.
Confirm that You’re Utilizing Your Soul’s Unique Vibration.
Return to the clarity of your Soul and allow it to connect with your true Essence, especially in your solar plexus area.
To do that, gently look at the Chart and breathe deeply. Remember a time when you were very happy and had successfully manifested an important physical goal. Notice if a particular color or felt sense comes to mind. What color or felt sense will show you the way?
Relax into it and let it integrate into your solar plexus. See if you can make it stronger and more vibrant. If so, that is your Soul Color.
“I recognize my unique color vibration.”
“I utilize it to help me maintain my integrity and healthy boundaries.”
Return to Your Best Position.
Emotional conflict could cause trouble in your Third Chakra, located at the solar plexus (in the front where your ribs go up) where your Essential Self resides.
Built up emotional toxins can leave your Essence vulnerable to energetic attack, especially if you’ve been in the habit of taking on other people’s pain.
The Essential Self may even disassociate and move to some other location because it doesn’t feel safe.
Take a minute or so to handle this with kindness. Remember that when you heal yourself, you heal the world.
Gaze softly at the Soul Star Chakra Key for chakra healing so that your Essential Self can re-open the chakra, clear out the junk and get balance again. That way, your Essence (or Psyche) will feel safe to return and access its power effectively.
Use this Soul Star Chakra Key to help you clear out the gunk!
Make a Heart Centered Course Correction:
Imagine that your Soul is opening your Heart center and connecting with it. Feel the light within you getting stronger and allow your Soul to make the necessary changes. This is your garden. Your way. The way that your heart is guided to create – free of this emotional conflict.
“I allow the Light in my Heart to radiate out into the World.”
Connect the Hara Lines.
Whenever working with chakras, you may need to repair and strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing. The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight). These affirmations will help you:
“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.”
“My chakras are connecting with my Soul through a beautiful web of light.”
“I am inside of my body. Everything else is outside.”
“I reorganize my consciousness around inner peace and positive solutions.”
Repair and Refocus Your Auras.
At the end of any epigenetic clearing, your auras need to be refocused, repaired and strengthened. Ask your Soul and Guardian Angel to assist you in finding and healing the areas in need.
“I refocus and repair my auras.”
“My auric field is strong and organized to protect my health and spiritual autonomy.”
Let Yourself Get Grounded in the New Paradigm.
Finally, take a deep breath and place both feet on the ground. Feel the resonance in your body and energy field as you connect with the Earth.
“I relax and release discordant energies so that I can ground.”
Take note of where you feel this new awareness moving through your body. Allow yourself to enjoy it.
Congratulations!
Now is a good time to get out into nature. Go for a walk or do something you enjoy. The time you take for yourself now will help you move beyond emotional conflict and into fully embodied action.

Self-care for Grief, illness and Loss
A Soul Oriented Solutions Formula: Self-care for Grief ~
Many people are experiencing deep levels of grief and mourning over events happening both near and far. Feelings of anxiousness, distress and even PTSD can come on suddenly and be very overwhelming. What are some things that can bring some relief and self-care for grief?
This brief exercise from RESOLVE uses affirmations and the Intuitive Learning Circles to quickly help you when you are:
- Grieving
- Recovering from abuse – past or present
- Dealing with a serious or long-term illness
- Preparing for surgery
- Coming to terms with tragedy, loss or death.
Here’s an example of how the Circles can help you relax:
“I bring my senses into balance.”
“I focus them so that I can feel calmer and more aware of what’s important.”
“I use them to help me be more aware of where I am and what I’m doing.”
“I focus on thoughts and actions that are in my best interest.”
You may feel as though your energy is being drained right out of you. Relax and gaze softly at this Circle. Let it help you close the drains in your heart.
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!
When you’re ready, you can begin self-care for grief by allowing this Soul Prayer Chart to help you reclaim your connection to Creator and Soul through your heart center. It can help to put both feet flat on the floor and place your hands on your heart with this symbol. Simply gaze softly at the image while you contemplate the positive affirmation that goes with it for for a minute or so. Relax and breathe. Here’s some suggestions:
“I reclaim my power and fill my heart with courage, faith and determination.”
Strong emotions or insights may come up. The image may move, rotate, vibrate or change color. Don’t worry. That happens sometimes. It just means they are working to help you feel better. Once the energy calms down a bit, you can move on to the remaining Circles with each of their affirmations to complete the process.
You might want to journal some of your thoughts so that you can speak with a trusted counselor or friend about what comes up. If so, get out some paper and something to write with as you go through the steps.
Step One: Asking for Help
Breathe in deeply, all the way to your belly while you look at this Circle and then exhale. Breathe in through your nose, if you can. Do that several times.
If you could ask for something that would help you feel better, what would that be?
Step Two – Support
Imagine that you can bring healing and release into all parts of your body, mind and spirit while you continue to breathe and gaze softly with this next symbol.
Step Three ~ Peace
What do you think is the main difficulty or burden you’re dealing with right now?
Are you ready to let go of that burden and find a solution? If not, why not? Be sure to respect your process.
Step Four – Release
Where are you holding tension?
You can release the tension around anything that’s bothering you right now. Your shoulders are dropped. Your jaw is relaxed. Rub them if you like. Keep melting the tension until it’s all gone.
Step Five – Soul Vision
Consider what your Soul would tell you about this situation. Connect with the Love that comes from within as much as you are able to. Allow your heart to open to it.
Step Six – Remove Your Burdens
Imagine that you can send all those burdens to where ever they need to go to resolve themselves. Imagine the heaviness lifting up and off of you.
You have done the best that you can under the circumstances.
Step Six – Rebalance
Breathe again.
Feel a calmness coming over you.
You feel calmer and calmer with every breath.
Step Seven – Cleansing
Send away any illness or pain that you’re experiencing. Send it to the Sun or wherever it needs to go to heal.
Step Eight – Faith
Fill yourself with strength and the knowledge that you are loved.
Let yourself rest now. You might feel tired or sad. That’s okay. It means that you’re feeling safe enough to really let go and rest.
Some people have gotten extra support out of going through this self-care for grief exercise every day for twenty-one days. It helps to retrain your mind to think more positively and keep you on track toward your full recovery.

Heartfelt Communication Using Your Intuition
Intuition is Learning to Listen with Your Heart
The goal of this exercise is to empower more confident, cooperative and heartfelt communication in the New Paradigm.
Heartfelt communication is something many people say they would like and wonder why it’s so difficult to achieve. In the best of times it happens naturally by opening your heart and listening to its promptings.
Unfortunately, when life takes a difficult turn or tragedy happens, as it has for many of us, the heart and throat centers can shut down, leading us to feel cut off and at a loss for words. Repeated trauma and other violations of the spirit take their toll. Perhaps it’s the shock of disappointment or the panic one feels when the world gets turned upside down.
Opening up again may take time and some extra encouragement, especially for introverted, shy or highly sensitive people. Yet, with a little help, your heart can heal and your throat can relax again.
By practicing heartfelt communication with yourself first, you strengthen your intuition, which is like having an inner guidance system. When you go one step further and act on your intuition, you can:
- Re-examine your relationship with yourself and the world
- Reclaim an inner peace that helps you remain objective
- Recalibrate your ability to express your truth
- Renew the connection between your throat and your heart.
- Resource new ways to nurture cooperation and appreciation
*If you often go blank or feel like you’re out of your body during conversations you may be dealing with unresolved shock or anxiety. If that happens during this exercise, or at any other time, you can go through Self-care Formula #1 Healing Emotional Shock to get grounded.
** If you’re having difficulty with boundaries, you may need to go through Mind Exercise #8 Developing Healthy Boundaries in conjunction with this exercise.
In the New Paradigm there are new channels of protection and communication that we can learn to utilize for our benefit.
The transition out of the Water based Piscean Age into the lighter, quicker energy of the Aquarian Age (Air) has contributed to quite a few challenges. Most people are experiencing including breakdowns in communication and a general atmosphere of instability.
As you go through the exercise, utilize the Divine Protection Chart to access the generative energy flow of the New Paradigm. Let it help you organize your communication and give it the lift and lightness needed to be successful.
By contemplating the symbol, you’ll be able to intentionally close down harmful channels and open up to the generative life force (chi) that is available through the Element of Air. Gaze softly at the symbol with these positive affirmations:
“Any stagnant, heavy or destructive energy flows from the past are closing down now – in my mind, my body and my communications.”
Integrating with this new channel will help us connect with each other in far more generative and life affirming ways.
“I am open to receiving generative life force through the Element of Air.”
“I pull together new lines of communication using the lighter, quicker energy of Air.”
Heartfelt Communication: A Mind Exercise using Animal Totems from the Intuitive Learning Circle method.
Many cultures claim that messages from the animal world inform and offer us guidance – a very special kind of “medicine.” The Intuitive Learning Circles use messages from animals and nature to facilitate your learning and access inner peace.
For example, Monkey Medicine is about calming angry or critical thoughts that are causing trouble in your communications and life. In today’s world, many conversations have no intention of creating any kind of common ground and are merely an opportunity to criticize or pick a fight. Monkey can warn you if you’re about to engage in a hostile or manipulative communication.
Gaze softly at Monkey’s Circle, and ask:
“Is there any real opportunity to make progress with this person or group?”
If the answer is “no,” you may need to go through this exercise just so you can say “no” effectively and still be as kind as possible.
If your answer is “yes, I can make progress here,” ask yourself honestly:
“Am I open to changing my perspective around this particular communication?”
If your answer is still “yes,” get out some paper and something to write with to make notes as you go through this exercise.
*For best results, place both feet on the ground and gaze gently at each Circle to receive your own message.
Let’s start by introducing you to the very first Intuitive Learning Circle from Gifts from the Rainforest.
Animal Spirits Medicine
- Animals are our partners in creating an abundant and peaceful life on our planet. By observing their behavior and the role they play in their environment, we can adapt to and make the most of the circumstances in our lives. This Intuitive Learning Circle helps us take ownership of how we use our energy to communicate. It also helps us to set things right by listening to the wisdom of our hearts.
Relax and breathe as you would in a state of meditation. Bring to mind the person or group you would like to improve your communications with. When you gaze gently at the Circle, you can tune in and receive your own answers to the question:
“What do I really want to communicate to this person or group?”
Take your time and write down what comes to you initially.
2. Because of the alarming amount of confusion and manipulative communications happening around us, we need to address the possibility that various aspects of your subtle energy system may be damaged by toxic attachments or karmic entanglements that would interfere with clear communication.
Use this Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
“My energy system can effectively neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.”
“I easily let go of toxic attachments.”
3. In our current environment, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including reversals, deformations and misdirections.
“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”
Continue breathing until you begin to sense the calming energy of your Soul coming through.
Butterfly Medicine
4. It’s always helpful if you can tap into positive energy that will assist you. If you continue to relax with the medicine of Butterfly, you may be able to utilize beneficial energies from your environment to nourish a more successful and reciprocal outcome.
After all, what you put out comes back, so it’s worth it to take a few extra minutes to clarify what you really want to put out!
Once you’ve lightened up a bit, gently bring your attention back to who you’re communicating with, what you want to communicate and how you might do that more effectively.
Electric Eel Medicine
5. The message of Electric Eel is about being coherent and grounded in the way we’re communicating. Use this medicine to scan your body and energy. Pay attention to any areas that feel muddled, blank or void when it comes to communicating with this person or group. Once you feel the inconsistency, Electric Eel will help you clear up the confusion and fill in the blank with positive energy and purpose.
It can also help you change the polarity of your throat and heart chakras so that they can realign with each other.
Note: This would be a good time to scroll back to the symbol at the beginning for Divine Protection to close down old energy channels and integrate that new energy channel before you continue.
River Medicine
6. Now that you’ve done all that, River Medicine can help you settle into a clearer perception of what you can say honestly and without exaggeration. Use the Circle to bring your senses into balance like the volume control on a radio.
Not too high, not too low – just right!
Bringing them into balance will support clear intuition by helping you to remain calm and perceive your situation the way it really is.
Now you can be more objective. Adjust the volume on your proposed communication. Take time to consider what’s really needed.
Does the volume need to be turn up or down? Does it need repetition? Something else?
Of course, there’s what you’d like and what’s actually possible.
Create a positive affirmation to guide you:
“In this situation, my communications are _________ and __________.”
Divine Connection
7. The next step is to empower your ability to express your needs and create a clear intention that you can follow through on.
“I exist and am empowered through my heart and Soul.”
“I am empowered to take good care of myself and develop heartfelt communications that are life affirming, truthful and cooperative.”
“I am empowered to release harmful intentions or interference.”
“I’m able to express myself clearly and keep healthy boundaries.”
Continue by making your own affirmations that apply to your intention:
“I am empowered to _____________.”
Jaguar Medicine
8. An important part of this exercise is to improve your confidence. Bring in Jaguar Medicine to surround yourself with a sphere of protection made of Light, strength and determination.
Once you’ve visualized that both crossed and uncrossed, can you remember a time when you successfully communicated something similar, either through your words or your actions?
It was probably something you felt very confident about.
Take your time and remember what was important about it.
Is your current communication challenge also important to you? Do you care?
Why do you care? Why do you care about the person or group you’re communicating with now?
What is motivating you?
Is there something you’d like to change about that or add?
Hummingbird Medicine
9. Another reason to cultivate heartfelt communication is to increase your experience of joy, connection and positive service. Hummingbird is our guide for accessing harmony and joy. Use this medicine to help you remember more about your successful experience. What did you enjoy about it?
What was the most positive aspect?
Did you enjoy getting a positive response?
Would you enjoy getting a similar response with this communication?
Hummingbird also helps us distinguish the difference between cooperation and compromising one’s integrity. For example, people who enjoy being “nice” have problems with communications because that attitude often puts them in impossible positions. Another problem is trying to be everything to everyone.
Use the Circle to unwind yourself from agreements, attitudes or assumptions that cause problems in how you communicate.
Use these affirmations to help:
“I untangle myself from extremes, codependence and no win situations.”
“I am free to enjoy simple and cooperative communications.”
Soul Color
10. Whenever you’re very happy or have successfully manifested a goal, you’re naturally using your Soul’s unique vibration or color. Use this Soul Color chart to see if a particular color comes to mind for your successful communication. Relax for a minute or so to find it and strengthen your resonance with it.
“I recognize my Soul’s unique color vibration and strengthen it to enhance my confidence and communication.”
When you’re ready, ask what kind of message your Soul would like to give and receive in this case.
What would be your Soul’s purpose in having this communication?
Would you be happy with that message?
Take your time and sift through the pros and cons of your proposed communication. Continue to make notes.
Dissolving Destructive Blueprints
11. You’ve probably gathered up a lot of old mental, emotional or spiritual patterns that contributed to misguided, confusing or ineffective communication in the past. This would be a good time to let them go.
Use this symbol to help you find and Dissolve Destructive Blueprints. See them like dark clouds, dissipating into the pure light of the Sun.
“I dissolve destructive patterns for harmful communication
and any connection I have ever had to them.”
“I release any grief, loneliness, frustration, anxiety or __________
that would interfere with heartfelt communication.”
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!
Piranha Medicine
12. Piranha is about spiritual direction and protection. Use the Circle to close the doors to all the myriad pathways in your mind that would lead you back into dangerous, confusing or ineffective communications.
“I close the doors to any harmful, misleading or manipulative communications.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Heart Chakra Key
Now it’s time to integrate your communication with the Heart Chakra Key. Bring your attention to your heart center and allow the energy there to gently connect and balance throughout your body. It might help to place your right hand on your heart center and your left hand on your throat center.
Soon, the energy of your heart will naturally shift and start radiating out, like a star!
Can you imagine incorporating kindness, compassion, caring, self-respect and respect for others into the essence of your communication? If so, you’re ready to refine your message.
If not, what do you think you need?
Make a note of what comes up so that you don’t forget.
Starlight Medicine
Starlight aligns our individual consciousness with Universal Truth to achieve clarity and order. This medicine integrates conscious awareness, compassionate action and alignment with “true north” – the direction of your spirit.
It also helps you get more present in your body. Imagine that you can bring your Soul’s energy into the center area of your heart and solar plexus.
Once you feel more present in your heart center, contemplate what you originally wrote down.
Is this really what you want to communicate?
Are you clear who you want to communicate this message to?
Do you think that this message, as it is, will evoke the response you’re really looking for?
Is there a more effective message to send?
Sky Medicine
Finish now with Sky Medicine and allow it to help confirm a joyful message that is heartfelt and you really want to communicate.
That way, your words are bound to have a more desirable impact.
“What I really want to say to ________ is ____________________________.”
Once you’ve got the main message, see if you can refine the details about who, what, how, when, where and why.
Congratulations!
You have taken the time to consider the true impact of your words and re-frame any confusion or negativity into more heartfelt communication. Be sure to take some time to relax. Take a walk and integrate what you’ve come up with.
