We need to experience contrast in our lives because it helps us identify what feels good and what makes us feel bad. It is the feelings of feeling good Vs feeling bad, and that  contrast that helps us clarify and articulate our desires. This contrast of feelings then helps guide us to make our choice as to what path we want to journey, or who we want to be, or what our values and beliefs really are. It is when we feel good, feel loved, or experience joy, are the feelings that we most desire. It is those feelings that move us forward towards experiences associated with our life path.

We are currently in "the Awakening" process for humanity. As Esther Hicks, who channels Abraham, says, "the awakening is the process of turning our frequencies up higher, and higher and becoming more consciously aware of what is nonphysical."  What this means is that humanity, as a whole, is being exposed to be able to connect with, sense, use, and direct nonphysical energy and see beyond our physical senses. Essentially this is an expanded consciousness.

In order for the awakening to grow, it needs two things - the correct subtle energy frequency, or vehicle, to make "the Awakening" possible, and for people to choose a path that taps in, uses this energy, and expands their consciousness.  

The subtle energy that gives "the Awakening" life is called the Shialude. But for the Shialude energy to be used and to grow, an individual needs to CHOOSE to accept this subtle energetic vehicle to create an expanded consciousness. The choice comes down to either choosing a positive, expanding path, or a negative, constricting path. The positive path includes the feelings of acceptance, love, joy, support, hope, and awareness. The negative contrasting path is one of hate, fear, domination, power, and control.

To help present the contrasting points of view and path options in an "in your face manner" is Mr. Trump. He has assumed the role of the catalyst. He is the trigger to churn up, tear down, and turnover much of what is in place, not only in the USA, but in the world. In this process of churn, he is forcing everyone to look, evaluate and assess contrasting options. He essentially is the catalyst to  help us wake up and choose.  It is this contrast in options that will help each person define and articulate what type of energy we want to live in, who we want to be, and if we want to expand or contract our awareness and consciousness. 

I have been reminded  Mr. Trump is a rather good catalyst, and almost all are becoming engaged in making their choice of who they are and the type of world they are going to create.

As you tune in and learn to sense subtle energy, over time your abilities expand to not only sense this subtle energy, but also to recognize differences in these subtle energies - like the different TYPES,or qualities, or aspects of the energy. It is then when you move into going in even deeper, and can then start to sense different types of MESSAGES within that energy field.

For example, when I first started to be aware of earth energy and hearts, I then started to train myself to sense where some of these places were. I initially focused on when and where my feelings changed in different areas of nature. With more practice and experience, I improved to not only sense WHERE an earth energy site was, but also what type of vibe it produced. For example, in some areas I could become very serene, tranquil, quiet, and relaxed - almost as if I was being comforted. In other sites, I was able to "see" Spiritual Beings, and even at some locations, I was able to move through time and regress to a different time period.

In a recent visit at an earth energy new Mount Shasta in Northern California, I had a totally new experience. This happened during a meditation, and in the meditation, I could FEEL a change happening inside and around me. It was as if I was becoming a ROCK - like granite! In the meditation, I observed my skin and body now looking like it was made up of gray granite. I then remembered a Nature video I saw where plants seemed to communicate with other plants to let them know they were in need of a certain nutrient. THEN, the plants with that nutrient would SEND the plant in need, that specific nutrient.  I then had the impression the earth was sharing its rock-like SUBTLE energy with me, as a GIFT. Perhaps this was a nutrient I needed? 

At the end of the meditation, I looked at my arms and legs - they were normal. All of this imagery was shared in a meditation, and in an earth energy center. I was aware this was a deeper type of sensing subtle energy - a message was being shared. 

I am reminded that it is going to get even more ugly in America's political scene than it is right now. Many things are being completely turned over, and this will continue, and even go deeper and broader in the next 6 months.  This upheaval is either going to create a greater desire to purge and stop the current subtle life force energy flow we are in, or we will face a new era where things will dramatically be different for us.

It is similar to having a person get a diagnosis of cancer - the first desire is to stop it from spreading and growing and causing havoc in your life. But if it can't be controlled or stopped, then you either need to learn to adjust to the havoc, pain, and less functionality, or you accept the fact you are going to die.  And with luck, this whole experience of getting the cancer diagnosis will provide you that wonderful opportunity to find meaning in your life and genuine growth. But mostly, you also know it is going to be a big shit hole. 

This is what it is like in America right now. We have cancer and we are now learning how and what we are going to do about it. We have structures in place to deal with societal cancer - you know, the checks and balances (Congress's House and Senate, the Supreme Court, and the Media), but if these all fail, that means the cancer is going to continue to grow.

So, if America wants to stop this cancer from growing and spreading because the checks and balances are not working, it means that more people will need to act and change their actions, attitudes, and awareness - the type of subtle energy that contributes to society's "whole".  Otherwise, we will end up living in a world that will be much, much different from the one we currently know (like less education, less healthcare, less clean air and water, fewer protected lands, no safety net, but more corporate profits).

Of course, the other option is to just allow this cancer to grow, and see what happens. Who knows? Maybe we will realize we have found greater meaning and purpose in our life now that we realize the things we used to value and take for granted are gone. Or we will realize  we are indeed living in a big shit hole.

This breaks my heart. The current President of the USA signed an executive order to remove the protections of many of the national monuments. MANY of these sites include areas that are sacred - meaning, they have a consolidation of life force energy that connects with other planes of existence.  If these are destroyed, well, the special energy is GONE!  It ain't coming back!

I am reminded how the life process involves chaos, and then what follows is often some type of new structure and order - something for people to grasp a hold of and build a new life around.

War is chaos. So are natural disasters, like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes. And so, too, are our personal experiences with loss - like losing someone you love, or losing your home, or your job, health, etc.  All of these things will create a type of chaos. It is those moments of chaos that requires us to go very deep within in order to survive and get back to life.

There will be a moment when we start to put order and structure around the chaos and then begin the rebuilding process - or we give up and essentially die.

Chaos can provide us the upheaval to begin something a new. We then can make things better - or we can choose to do nothing, or even make things worse. But through this period of chaos and change, we will discover who we really are.

These moments of chaos are the times that provide the greatest life-lesson-moments in our ENTIRE life time. These are the moments when we will learn who we really are - if we survive, that is. 

So let's see who and what emerges over the next year and who we really are. 

I recently had one of those unusual experiences with subtle energy. I was visited by "me" from sometime in the future. I have only had this experience one other time, when a "future me" came to advise me I needed to divorce and relocate from Utah to another state. This visit was to advise me to "ignore the current President for the next 6 months" and have no thoughts about him, but instead, redirect my thoughts and attention to visiting, interacting, connecting and sensing different energies in different spots on the earth - such as the National Parks and Monuments. 

Having a "future me" come to give a message means this is rather a big deal and should not be ignored. I then started analyzing why this message was so important. I then realized that thoughts about "Mr. T" must be reinforcing his ability to continue to do more damage. After all, "our thoughts have energy" and even if our thoughts are negative, it is still subtle energy being directed towards a person, and it appears this person feeds off any type of energy, even if it is negative. 

And why would these instructions from "my future self" have me focus on earth energy spots, like our national parks and monuments?  Perhaps it is a way to help strengthen and protect these areas of the earth that are now being turned over to the private sector so some corporation can make a profit, drill for oil or gas, or even build condos. Or perhaps this is just going to be a way for me to improve my ability to sense different types of earth energies.  

Needless to say, I'm now engaged in redirecting my attention away from the news and to visit different places around the globe that may have concentrations of life force energy and be "earth energy sites". 

One year I went on vacation with my son on the back of his Harley motorcycle. We went up the coast of California and Oregon; he was driving and I was hanging on the back, grinning from ear to ear. What surprised me about this trip, however, was how I could feel the dramatic changes in temperature from one spot to another as we road up the coast. It was as if we were journeying through different little climate pockets along the highway, and they would quickly change from one spot to another. It was an amazing variety of temperatures.

In a way, it was reminiscent of when I was learning to sense earth energy centers. An earth energy center is where there are pockets of consolidated life force energy. Because of the abundance of subtle energy in those areas, it is must easier to have spiritual experiences. For example, you can more easily meet and converse with Spiritual Beings in those earth energy centers because there is enough available energy for Spiritual Beings to project themselves to you. Or you can more easily travel to the astral plane in those locations because you can tap in and use that life force energy to get you out of your body.

When John U.K. was training me to sense earth energy centers, he would have me tune into my feelings, ward and identify any changes of feelings as we walked or moved along a path or roadway. It became a way to identify when and where there was a change in my feelings and this could serve as a type of GPS to guide me towards an earth energy center. With practice, I learned that when I felt a feeling of "peace and oneness that almost forced me to smile" was a way that I could begin to identify where there was a consolidation of earth energy, or an earth energy heart center.

As I road on the back of the Harley, and sensed the microclimate bursts of changing temperatures, it made me smile. I was once again tuning into different sensations, but this time, it was just the wind.

Not very many people have the opportunity to be taught by a Spiritual Guide, so I asked John U.K., a Spiritual Being, why he came to me and taught me about spiritual energy (tools, outcomes, and gifts)? His response was a lesson on preparing and planning for an incarnation on earth.  

ME ASKING JOHN - "So why did you choose me to give these lessons to?"
JOHN RESPONDING TO ME - "I didn't. You asked me to be the back-up plan should the normal events not come through."
ME - "What were those normal events?"
JOHN - "You were first supposed to meet and connect with Rob who was then supposed to teach you. You met Rob, but he hadn't been taught, so could not teach you."
ME - "So what happened?"
JOHN - "You planned a couple of events. The first one was to make sure that you and Rob could meet and become connected. You set up a marker of energy. When you two had your first kiss, you both felt an energy bolt go through you. You both commented on this, and knew this meant something. It was a message to let you know you two were supposed to connect, which you did.
JOHN "Rob was supposed to then teach you about meditation and these subtle energies, but this is where things failed. Rob was supposed to have been taught by a teacher in school (Father Winter), but the teacher had been let go for teaching non-Christian concepts. As a result, Rob did not learn these concepts and was unable to share them with you. Hence, the back-up plan was initiated - me!" 
ME - "Is this normal?" 
JOHN - "It is no usual nor is it unusual. It is an option and a choice. A person can plan a little or a lot before incarnating. You had several incarnations that fell short of what you wanted or expected (due to WWII, unforeseen accidents, etc) and wanted to make sure you completed what you wanted and expected. You created back-up plans for important activities to make sure this incarnation met your expectations." 

​This brief conversation let me know about pre-earth life and the ability to plan and prepare for an incarnation. It also let me know we can set up trigger events of communication and messages (like a kiss) as a way to help guide us or make sure we pay attention to certain people or events. This conversation also let me know we can solicit other Beings to help us on our journey, should they be willing to participate and join us in this effort.

I think we all have a tendency to acquiesce a bit when we first meet a nonphysical Spiritual Being. I mean, it is a bit unusual to have this experience, and when it first happens, there is a tendency to think the Spiritual Being you are meeting or conversing with is either God, or is God-like, or a messenger from God.  Anyway, that was my first impression when I first met and conversed with my Spiritual Guide and Teacher, John U.K.  

Even though John U.K. told me he was JUST my Guide and Teacher, and NOT an angel, and NOT God, it was still a bit unnerving at first. Eventually I got over this and were able to focus on the lessons I was supposed to learn (aka the lessons on the tools of the chakra energies and spiritual gifts).

In those early years, I met and conversed with many Spiritual Beings from all the levels of the Tao (as well as beyond the Tao) and I noticed that with each and every introduction to a new Spiritual Being, I initially interacted with them as if they were holy, and I was milk toast.  But this type of interaction changed when they advised me to divorce my husband and relocate to another state. I was surprised by this request, and said "no". It was also at that moment when became empowered and started saying no.  

But then, after my repeated "no's",  someone else was brought in who they thought I would listen to - it was "me from the future".

This was a VERY weird experience to meet and converse with "me from the future" (who had chosen divorce and relocation) and was sitting in front of me, advising me on why this was needed.  Eventually I was persuaded to also choose divorce and relocation, but I also realized this decision was MY choice.

What I learned from these experiences is that Spiritual Beings interact with you because either your Higher Self has requested this interaction, information, or guidance, OR you planned it before you were born.

Spiritual Beings are NOT holy - they are souls without a physical body. They are not better than you. They are just from a different time and space, and have different information and experiences to share that may be beneficial to learn and know about.

Spiritual Beings visit and converse with you for a reason, but you do NOT have to accept the information or the choices they are recommending. The CHOICES are still YOUR CHOICES and the life you have is still based on the choices YOU made. 

John U.K.was my Spiritual Guide and Teacher who gave me lessons about the spiritual energies of the chakras - the tools to use to fortify those different energies as well as the gifts one can develop when you use those energies. During this training, he said that often times those concepts about the tools and gifts of these spiritual energies are often shared directly to writers on the physical plane (earth). These writers have then placed them in stories (movies and books) so that more and more people can be aware of the concepts and learn to embrace them.   John U.K. then gave me some examples:
Star Wars

• the concept of "the force" (or life force energy, spiritual energy, Qi, etc.)
• using the force for guidance, knowledge, to move objects, protect self, and persuade
• directing life force energy via focused intent (lightsaber)
  

Dune

• the spiritual gifts of sensing, future sensing, dream communication, command projection, protection, telepathy, knowing (but not knowing how or why you know)

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

• the concept of moving through time 
• the concept of using portals and conduits through different layers and dimensions

The Secret Garden;  Enchanted April

• the concept of the earth being able to heal and make a person whole and well again

The Matrix

• the concept of being able to change one's reality via your thoughts
• the concept of the Higher Self in a gelatinous state, hooked up to the physical personal

Kung Fu Panda

• Learning to use and direct Qi is based from within, rather than what others see or expect of you 

Moana

• ​finding one's  true calling within yourself
• working with the elements of earth, water, air, fire
• the connection of the past to the present and the future - the unending story of life
• the concept of using and directing the subtle energy from the heart (green stone)  to make things whole 

​If you are like me, it is often these types of stories - the tales of the hero and his/her learning to use these subtle energies and be guided through chaos - that we love so much. Why? Because these are OUR stories and they remind us of who we are, why we are here, and where we are going!

Years ago, I asked John U.K., my Spiritual Guide and Teacher, what his plans were for the Christmas holidays. His response was rather surprising.

"I'm hiding Jesus." he said.

"What?" I remarked.

"It's my turn to hide Jesus this year. As you know, thoughts are energy, and thoughts, along with prayers, directed to a single individual, are very difficult. Imagine having millions of people focusing their thoughts and discussions on Jesus, especially during these religious holidays and events. These actions make it very difficult.

'Can you imagine millions of people focusing their attention on a single person, especially on the same day?" He continued, "Then there are all those souls who have died, and now want to meet Jesus, too. During Christmas, this is especially difficult.  Several of us take turns hiding him around these holidays".

John U.K.'s response really changed how I celebrate these types of religious events, as well as helped me get a better understanding about the power of thoughts.

When I first started to learn about the Tao and past lives, much of my information came from a book titled "Messages from Michael".  In that book, the Tao was described as having 7 levels. Then, I met John U.K., a Spiritual Teacher and Guide, who said, "just go with that for now". I later understood this was because he wanted me to focus on learning about spiritual energy and the chakras rather than where I should explore. 

Later, I met some Spiritual Beings who called themselves "Harmonies". They said they were from "beyond the Tao." I didn't question what that meant at the time, but after they were gone, I wondered if this meant there were multiple Tao's or if there were more levels than just the 7 (because the 7th level  is called "the Tao").  Well, last night, I finally got my answer  in a dream. 

My mind often uses the concept of an elevator going to different floors as a way to let me know and track which level of the Tao I am visiting during my astral projections.Last night, in my dream, I was on the 14th floor - the top floor of a building. I knew this mean I was on level 14 of the Tao, which meant there were double the number of levels I had originally thought.  

So there we have it! The dream let me know there are 14 levels in our Tao, and there is only one Tao. 

Recently the USA launched strikes on Syria. I wondered if this was now going to be a catalyst for more war. Essentially I wanted to know, "So now what?"

My first effort to find out more about what is going on, is to use meditation and to listen for the answers in the meditation. So this is where I started. Sometimes I get direct answers, and sometimes I don't. But in THIS meditation I wanted to know if we were now going to war, and the answer I received was this -  "This is a "one off" and will not go further. This President is not known for strategy and he acts on impulse and emotion. This action served as a way to help him feel like he was in charge and he was he was doing something about a problem. He saw he was acting Presidential. In addition, it served as a diversion technique away from other news."

I then wanted to know what was happening with the investigation on the Trump/Russia investigation, but the feedback I got in this meditation was "what is important is the  "Awakening".  Essentially, I was reminded, "your President is dead".  It was as if I was being told this was no longer a concern.

I then consulted the iChing, which is a method to tap into the subtle energy flow of the Tao and identify where energy is moving to. It is part of Qigong training and based on a 4,000 year old Chinese text. This method is not as direct and personal as what I get in a meditation, but I still use it when I feel blocked, or if I'm not getting direct answers, or if I need validate impressions. 

So I posed the question to the iChing, "What will America look like in 6 months?"
The answer I got was, "there will be a joining of hands and harmony; people will be on the same wavelength".  This rather surprised me because it wasn't what I was expecting, but it did seem to verify that we were not going to war after the launching of the missiles in Syria.

I then asked the iChing, "What is Mr. Trump's future look like in 6 months?" 
The answer I received was "legal battles, accusations, and nearly home and dry".

The reason I'm sharing this with you is to let you know that sometimes you get clear, straight answers in a meditation, and sometimes you don't. Sometimes I ask for messages in dreams to clarify questions I have, and sometimes I get them, and sometimes I don't. Other times I use the iChing, and still other times, I do nothing and just wait and see where and how things play out. 

Years ago I met with a Spiritual Being named Raul, who called himself a "Harmony". He said he was from "beyond the Tao".  It was from "there" where a new energy spark was now being shared with our world - the energy we now call the Shialude.

Raul went on to say that periodically in the course of humanity's development, different energies have been introduced and shared with our world. This has been done, he continued, to help humanity advance to their next level of development and growth. Each time this happens, the new subtle energy spark helps humanity move forward towards greater awareness, along with shifting power outward towards more individuals.

These sparks, for example, helped trigger the distribution of power and control away from one centralized religion in our ancient history, towards having more religions. It also was the means to help trigger the distribution of political power from one monarchy, towards more clusters of governmental power. Later, a similar spark was used to shift power away from these various religions and clusters of government, toward the merchant class. This advancement distributed and spread power with even more individuals. In addition, this type of energy spark served as the catalyst that brought about Europe's Renaissance - that period of time when superstition began to be replaced with science.

In our current era,  this new Shialude energy spark is serving as a means to help shift power away from the merchant class (e.g. corporations) towards more individuals. This shift will create more self empowerment as well as enhance personal awareness. This is one reason why the protection and preservation of individual freedoms, such as freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, protecting voting rights, correcting gerrymandering, changing Citizens United, and protecting the right of privacy will become primary factors that people fight for in this current era.

For several thousand years, most of the world has operated under a model of power and money being centered in corporations, with religions and governments aligning and partnering with corporations. But this new spark of energy of the Shialude will create a new paradigm shift of power away from corporations and toward individual responsibility and personal power. This is the energy that created the awakening we have heard about or anticipated coming in this era. The awakening is about individuals waking up and recognizing what they want, who they are, and recognizing they have power to make and create the type of world they want to live in.  They have choice.

The contrast of the past is rather blatant right now- we have Mr. Trump presenting himself as the model of corporate power and greed. We also have Mr. Pence representing the religious intolerance and control based on a white male oriented structure of power.  These two presentations are great examples of the the old paradigm that will be crumbling when humanity awakens and decides to shed the past.  

The seeds are sown and the changes are taking root. How long this takes to shift the power away from corporations and religious control will be based on how long it will take the masses to awaken and allow that inner spark to grow and flourish. The energy of change is within us - it is now up to us to allow that energy to grow and help us move to the next stage in humanity's growth and development. 

On March 17, I had a dream where a man in a trench coat told me "Your President is Dead". When I woke up, I knew this was a significant MESSAGE and was important. But then I became dismayed when I saw the continuation of executive orders being signed and reviews of the Russia/Trump connection taking a back seat after the Chair of the Intelligence Committee shared investigative information with Mr. Trump.

• March 27, 2017 Revocation of Federal Contracting Executive Orders, revokes President Obama's executive orders on fair pay and workplace regulations.
• March 28, 2017 Energy Independence Executive Order
• Instructs the Environmental Protection Agency to review the Clean Power Plan, instructs the Department of the Interior to lift a ban on coal leasing on federal lands and gets rid of a rule that instructs agencies to consider the climate impact of their policies. It also disbands a team focused on calculating the social cost of carbon.

Daily events did not seem to validate an end of this power play, but then, on March 29, my sister alerted me to a significant dream SHE had;  "a man in a trench coat said to her "Your President is dead".

I knew immediately that HER dream was a follow up and reinforcement message to MY dream message. We essentially had the same dream with the same message. I then focused on the insight of this dream and this was what I received in my meditation: "The course in play will have an end and nothing more is needed. Allow the energy to flow and don't be concerned about these activities and events because they will end. Don't get caught up in the daily dramas." 

The goal of a significant dream is to deliver a message, and then have you interpret the meaning (or insight) about that dream. THIS dream was not about our president being physically dead - it was a message about a symbolic death. The insight is a message to not get caught up in these  events and drama, but stay focused on putting energy into creating the type of world you want to live in.  

America started a war after the twin towers in NYC were taken down by two airplanes and Bush/Cheney used this as an opportunity to invade Iraq, planting the seeds for the upheaval we now see in Syria, Iraq,, Afghanistan- with perpetual war, refugees, and unending terrorism.

In a meditation I was given a different perspective to consider about the dismay I was feeling about this unrest. Yes, I was told, the Busy/Cheney decision decision to start a war created many NEGATIVE events, HOWEVER, a huge amount of karmic debt has also be created through these actions. This huge amount of negative karma will eventually provide the motivation and energy to create more positive energies many years from now. Eventually, the scales will get rebalanced when these karmic debts get paid off, and this will create more positive energy in the world down the road. 

For example, "Julius Caesar, the Roman General and Dictator in 100 BC, eventually reincarnated to become the person we know as Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States. In that lifetime, Jefferson was once again in a leadership position, but made different choices. In this subsequent life, he was able to pay off many of those karmic debts from his Caesar incarnation. G.W. Bush will do the same. In a future incarnation he will once again be in a position of power and his karmic debts in that future lifetime will provide the necessary energy and motivation for him to be a different, and improved leader than what we saw in this era."

So what I learned in this meditation is that sometimes it is to take a different and broader perspective to see the value a person and their life experiences will have in the world, and sometimes the negative actions, along with the consequences it has on many people, will eventually get rebalanced with what is needed a thousand years in the future. 

There will always will be negative stuff going on in the world creating many, many negative experiences for many people, BUT they are all creating karmic ribbons that will need to be burned off and repaid. The payment process that comes from reincarnating, learning from our previous choices, and then doing good to repay that debt, is a built in process to ensure that  more positive energy gets created in the world, which eventually benefits us all.

The spiritual gift of the first chakra is known as personality sensing. This gift is the ability to not only sense and feel the subtle energy of a person or place, but to go even deeper. This gift comes into its full fruition when the hidden curtain or filters are removed and you are allowed "in" to see events or actions that are telling (or defining) of this person or place. Let me give you an example.  In this video clip we see the President of the USA with the Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel, and Mr. Trump ignoring requests from the media for the two leaders to shake hands. At one point, Merkel turns to Trump and says, "they want to have a handshake," but gets no response from Trump. ​

When I saw this clip, an IMMEDIATE image with much more detail came into my mind, giving me the history of what was really going on. Having this history in a mental flash, with its supporting data, allowed me to have a deeper sense of Mr. Trump's personality and agenda.  

Putin, the President of Russia, and Trump, the candidate for President, had negotiated a deal prior to the election that was - "I will help you become the President and in return you will help me become the leader of NATO". 

Now that Trump was made President of the USA through Russia's help, he now needs to keep his end of the deal. Trump began by putting in a man Putin chose to be over the USA State department, then reduced the State Department budget, and now is focused on diminishing the respect and power of Angela Merkel. All of this is part of the strategy for Putin to take control of NATO.  In this clip, Trump is letting Putin know he is still in play with this deal. 
 
This is how the spiritual gift of personality sensing works – you get an immediate expansion of information that comes in a flash in your mind and you see something hidden now in its full display. By having the filters removed, you now KNOW more about this person's real personality, hence the name "personality sensing".

The skill of personality sensing often begins first with tuning into your IMPRESSIONS and FEELINGS and paying attention to when you meet or interact with different people. As this skill improves, you will start to experience images - almost as if you are in a waking dream. Later, thoughts will arrive that are telepathic messages of communication and information to provide much more detail about what is really going on with this person.

Personality sensing is a spiritual gift is associated with the 1st chakra energy. One can cultivate this gift by using the tools associated with the 1st chakra. While one is using the tools to nourish and fortify 1st chakra energy, one can then focus and practice to develop this spiritual gift by

• becoming aware of the personalities of different people (and places)
• tuning into your impressions and feelings about different people (and places) and determining why you feel that way or have that impression
• be open to receiving subtle messages about other people (and places) via dreams, thoughts, or telepathic communication
• pay attention to those subtle messages about other people (and places) 
• be open, tuned in, and react (or respond)  when you receive these messages and thoughts which come into your mind as if from no where

Cultivating the energies of the different chakras provides you with the possibility of using those different chakra energies in different ways. Using the energy of the 5th chakra can help you interpret significant dreams. Significant dreams are usually messages from your Higher Self, or Spiritual Guide(s), or from another spiritual source. Significant dreams are the ones that are STRONG, they linger, and stick. These are the dreams that resonate to your very core, and are unforgettable.  These are the dreams that are MESSAGES and you need to pay attention to. Let me share one of my recent significant dreams with you, and how I interpreted the message.

OVERVIEW OF THE DREAM
This dream was disturbing and I could tell it was a dream about what is ahead with America's future, because the dream was soon after Mr. Trump's inauguration and my thoughts were consumed with fear, dread, and grief.

The dream began with me as a passenger in the car, but I was sitting on the left side of the car, and the driver's side was on the right.  We were in the USA, but the car was foreign. As we were moving forward on the highway, I saw a woman's body laying in the road. She was wearing a sequined dress, and her arm had been pulled out of the socket. Her throat had been slashed. She was laying on the right side of the two-lane road, dead. I gasped a bit, but then saw another dead body just ahead, and then another dead body ahead of that one. These dead people were all in the right lane and  we were driving in the left lane.

But then I saw a dead body in our lane, the left lane. There were now more and more dead bodies in the road, and all of them were dressed up in their in finery - expensive clothes, almost as if they had been to a gala or a party, they were all in the road, dead. They were now on both sides of the road. We even drove over one dead body and I could hear a “kerplunk", but we didn't stop. We weren't sad or concerned, per se, it was just a bit surprising there were so many.

The road then curved and the road ended. There were even MORE dead bodies, but now there were police on the scene along with the experts, like lawyers, journalists, and coroners. There were even lay people walking around looking at the bodies. No one was concerned. No one was investigating it as a crime. No one was upset. No one was trying to clean up the mess or find out why or who did it. It was more like being at a flea market and just walking around to see what was there. We stopped the car and got out. There was a total absence of any feelings for any of the dead. The dream ended. 
​
​INTERPRETATION
The next steps after looking at the dream in its totality, is to interpret the dream, and then determine what the message is, or insight. My interpretation of this dream is about where we are headed in America and what to expect. This is what the symbols in the dream mean to me:

• Being a passenger, but in the driver's seat, implies my perspective is from looking at things from a different perspective and point-of-view, versus from how I would usually see things.
•  Seeing a person in a dream who was killed from pulling out their arm, or stabbing, or a beheading implies anger -  it wasn't an accident.   
• The dead people are all dressed up in sequins, or tux's, and fancy clothes - the elite.  
• The dead bodies being on the right side of the road is an indication of political stand - being on the right, or conservatives, or republicans.
• There were also some dead bodies on the left, which indicates the expanded death toll to also include parties on the right as well as the left.  
• The dead bodies also expanded to include being found on the sides of the road, indicating the carnage expanded beyond just the main political highway. 
• Going around the curve, represented a change of events.
• The road ends represents the end of the political strife.
• Seeing the police and other experts are a symbol of for law and order (police, lawyers, coroners, experts). These people remain  in tact or on the side of the people who lived.
• Then, seeing other people walking around the dead indicates that society as a whole, survives.
• Having no feelings or concerns for the dead seems to indicate this event or outcome was something everyone desired or relieved it was now over.

INSIGHT
After the dream is interpreted, the next steps are to understand what the message is. We call this the insight. 
My interpretation of the dream's insight is the message "tough times are ahead, but society will survive".

At first, I saw the dreams meaning to be focused on class (the elite, the 1%) as well as political affiliation (right or left), and the destruction (or death) for some in those groups.  Another possibility is that both the right (Republicans) or the left (Democrats) will fail to stop the destruction this road is creating. In the end, however, the press and the law will be the groups that step in and end the madness.  

In summary, the general population will survive what is coming, but it will be difficult. Eventually they will be able to wipe out what is preventing them from succeeding and be able to move on past these events.  

Part of the meditation process is to learn how to turn off your "monkey mind" - you know, those streams of constant mental thought wanderings that are constantly on in your mind. The process of learning how to manage those streams or conscious thought are part of the meditation process. Eventually one improves the ability to manage one's monkey mind in meditation, and this then allows a person to go deep within, connect with "Source" (aka the Tao, God, Higher Self, etc.) or experience other dimensions with expanded experiences.  

I have been reminded that in this world of upheaval and chaos, this same process is used to help us get through the chaos and noise in our everyday lives. Being able to learn how to turn off, ignore, or manage that constant flow and energy of strife, anger, hate, and separation, for example, is needed to help one get re-centered to help them endure the chaos and negative flow one can't control.

I was reminded how having an almost constant stream of this information is similar to our monkey mind. Just like we learn to control our monkey mind in our meditations, so too, we can learn to control the constant barrage of information and negative energies flowing in our daily life. As one learns to control this continual stream of outside data, one can also learn to develop and cultivate an inner peace and calm while still living and working in a normal day called life.  their day.  

But because a person needs to still be informed, aware, and alert, the challenge is being able to sift, sort, or know when to go in or out of that constant barrage of information. 

It is as if we are now in the start of tornado season and can feel the angst and turmoil coming. Learning how to remain calm while everything around us may bet churned, pulled out, changed, broken, or destroyed - will be vital. After all, we know there are many tornado's being formed, all with the potential to uproot and change everything in its path. We also know it's going to be a bumpy ride. A VERY bumpy ride.

In a meditation today, it became apparent there was a need to bring forward and expand the energy of truth in the world, especially to shine light on the Trump/Russia connection.  More uglies will undoubtedly be exposed.

Right now, it appears that group energy flow in America, on the whole, is tolerating and waiting to see how things shake out.  Yes, many are angry, but many are also pleased. This balance of energy is stagnating the societal energy flow. This balance will shift, however, after the new health care changes and school education are in place. These changes will serve as the catalyst that triggers the group to demand change, This will then begin the energy to flow in a new direction.

It will be the changes in health care and education that will serve as the triggers and catalyst to get more people to shift their allegiance in what is necessary. These two issues, health and education, will hit regular people to their very core.  Changes in health coverage from the Trump era will mean the cost of medicines are up, what insurance covers and pays for will be reduced, and individuals will need to pay more, or go without. People will be forced to explore less costly options, but many will not have other options and as a result, will get sicker and die.

Education in the Trump era will shift towards privatization. There most likely will be a voucher system so funds, via coupons, will go to families rather than to schools. Soon parents will realize the vouchers won't cover the cost to send a kid to school and they will need to find a less expensive or alternative solution. Many will end up not being provided any education at all. 

These unexpected changes in society will create a new level of anger. This will serve as a trigger to shift the current energy balance and to get it to flow in a new, and necessary direction. Once this happens, the truth about the Trump/Russia connection will be more likely take root and be accepted in its full exposure. This will be when the walls will start to crumble and fall. This will be when a new energy and a new era of will start to form and take root. This will be when the "people become awakened".

​But yes, we first have to go through the uglies in order to get the energy to flow to a new direction.

Something changed in the global subtle energy flow of the Tao this morning.  

Most changes that impact the physical plane often have first in the subtle energy field first before being made "physical", and today one of those events happened. What I observed was each person making a choice as to which energy flow they wanted to be a part of, and live in. It was a choice being presented to each individual as to whether they wanted to live in a clear, vibrant, positive energy flow, or live in a negative, cloudy energy field and flow. Each person was presented with that option, and each was able to make their own decision and choice.

I have been observing a "cloudy energy field and flow" for several months now, but this morning, I could see two flows of energy, running parallel, side by side. One line of subtle energy was clear and vibrant, and the other, running right next to it, was a cloudy-opaque-white energy flow.

I focused on the clear energy flow, and sensed this line was one of love, support, and connection with the life force energy. It had  a positive feeling. The other line, the cloudy one, was one that gave off a feeling of fear, exclusion, and containment. I had the impression this was a representation of what I had been observing since the election of Mr. Trump. 

As I observed these 2 lines of energy, I could see the clear line of energy grow, and grow. Upon closer inspection, I could see "people" in that energy field, and they had a focus of support, creativity, growth, and nurturing one another. It felt happy. It felt good. I then peeked into the cloudy line of energy and could FEEL an overwhelming amount of fear. I started to feel constricted, suppressed, and contained. It felt negative.  I could see people huddled over and it had a feeling of being controlled and suppressed. I saw others, however filled with anger, dominion, and a spirit of control and power.

I sensed that a choice was being offered to EACH individual; each could choose which energy flow he/she wanted to be in. It was their choice. Many started to observe and explore the two different lines of energy, and many moved from the cloudy energy field to the clear one very quickly.  There were several hesitant individuals, but most made the choice to relocate to the vibrant energy line, especially when they saw a change of happiness in their friends and family who were in that clear energy field. There were a few, however, who chose to remain in the cloudy line of energy. There wasn't anyone in the clear energy flow who moved to the cloudy one.

I had the impression things were now going to start shifting away from the fear-based and power-control initiative that Mr. Trump has been promoting, to one that would be more based on positive, shared-collective energy.  I did not get the impression Mr. Trump would be changing his opinions and style, however, but rather it would be individuals who would be creating and building a more supportive model with a more positive energetic flow. It would be individuals becoming more empowered, shifting power away from those who have bought it.  

There were thousands of nonphysical beings observing this event with me. Energetically, the shift happened today. We should soon start seeing a change in the physical realm and with luck, we may be able to bypass so many people needing to suffer from the  chaos and fear Mr. Trump is creating.

I grew up as a Mormon in Utah. As a child I had been taught that we Mormons were all on a path to become a God (or Goddess after we died). This was how the Church addressed the question, "Who I am? and Where am I going?" The answer was, "you are going to be a God or Goddess".

The are the steps that are identified by the Church to achieve this exalted position:

1. be baptized in the Mormon Church 
2. get married in the Mormon temple
3. pay 10% tithing to the Mormon Church
4. obey the male leaders of the church and do what they say
5. be honest
6. don't commit adultery (or repent of it if you have)
7. don't smoke, drink alcohol, coffee, or tea (or stop it, and repent)
8. have children (if you can't, adopt, or get guidance from your male church leader and follow what he says)
9. endure 
10. die  

That was it! You then you become a God or Goddess for all ETERNITY! 

I completed ALL these Mormon requirements (except for dying) and now just had to wait for death to reach that final step of exaltation. I was frustrated beyond belief because just enduring and waiting to die is rather difficult when you are 20. Or 30. or 40. Well, actually any age.  But then I met my own Spiritual Being and Teacher, John U.K., who taught me about the spiritual energy of the chakras and how to use the tools to develop spiritual gifts.  (You can find out more about this at  Quesak).

The path I had been on with the Mormon Church now started to seem rather empty and even a bit strange. I could now see there was absolutely NO God-like development skills training in the Church.  All that was required was to be a good Mormon,  pay your dues, endure, and then you were supposed to get the ultimate prize upon your death.

Since leaving the Mormon Church, and working with my Spiritual Guides and Teacher, I learned that ANYONE can be their own priest, prophet, and mentor. You don't need a religion to develop spirituality and develop gifts associated with having god-like abilities. It is all about subtle energy and learning, as well as practicing, using the tools to cultivate and tap into subtle, spiritual energy.

I also learned about the skills and abilities (or gifts) one can develop so they can use this spiritual energy. I also could see that this information is available for ALL. You don't have to be a man. You don't have to be white. You don't have to be part of a religious organization. You don't have to have money. You just have to learn and practice sensing, cultivating, and using this subtle energy to develop those skills.

If you are interested in learning how to discover your PERSONAL life purpose, or want to converse with Spiritual Beings, or heal the sick, travel to the heavens (aka astral plane), move through time, sense the future, and even create miracles, then you may want to explore working with subtle energy. The skills of learning how to tap in, sense, and use subtle energy, and learn how to use and direct this subtle energy, can transform your life.  Learning about the Qi, the chakras, life force energy, spiritual energy  - or  Qi Cultivation, may change your life and open up some amazing personal doorways.

A couple of weeks ago I did a future sensing meditation and what I saw in that meditation was Mr. Trump being handcuffed and taken out of the oval office. I wasn't quite sure if this visual was correct, or if it was based on my emotions at the time, so I did an iChing reading and meditation to get additional feedback.

When I do an iChing, I go into a meditative state, and then visualize connecting with the Tao, reaching into the center, and finding the corresponding thread that connects to the question I asked. I then cast the dice, then translate the numbers from the dice to the corresponding hexagram. I then look up the meaning of that hexagram in the "iChing, or Book of Changes,"  an ancient divination Chinese text manual from 1000–750 BC. 

In this recent iChing reading, the question I asked was "what is the best way to contain Mr Trump?" and the answer from the iChing is based on two things. The first response is about the CURRENT energy and what is happening now, and the second response is about where the current energy is flowing TO.  

Here is the first answer I received, which tells us where Mr. Trump's energy is current at; "Immaturity, ignorance, youthful folly, obscured view. He is someone who has no grasp of life. He is at great risk of being brought down".

This is the second part of the answer, which is about where this energy is currently flowing and what the possible future will be, based on the current energy flow. This is where the energy is taking Mr. Trump;  "bribery, chaos, misuse of power, shady dealings, things that are tarnished by the ravages of time."

I then wanted to know "When will this happen?"
The iChing answer I received was that the current energy state is about rubble and needing to clear the rubble. and the future energy flow is that after the rubble gets cleared, and then it will "be successful and brightness will be created".

I saw this iChing reading as a validation to the image I saw in my previous meditation, that Mr. Trump would be removed from office via the law and legal means.

An announcement was made today from Steve Bannon, Trump's Chief Strategist, at the Conservative Political Action Conference, about how the Trump Administration's plan is to "deconstruct the administrative state". This information ought to scare the hell out of everyone who is still alive and breathing in the USA. The plan is to dismantle the government - essentially, everything in government but the military and the Presidency.

So, if you don't want to live in a police state, or if you have grown fond of civil liberties (like freedom of speech, freedom of the press), or even if you have grown fond of clean water and air, or maybe you want you kids to be educated or think you ought to have health care - it is time to decide which future.  It's now going to get real ugly. You will very shortly need to make your choice as to which side of the fence you are going to be standing on.

I have wondered how long we will should allow Mr. Trump to "plow over the field" before we should mobilize and begin to change the course of this energy. The answer I got today, is, the time is NOW!

So what can we do to help limit this abuse of power and the destruction of America? There are several thing you may consider doing to help change the direction of this negative energy proliferation: 

• You can do meditations to send out positive energy and focused thoughts and intention to strengthen the resistive movements against Trump. You can also focus your intention to limit Trump's power and proliferation from spreading and growing.
• You can participate in group efforts of sending out positive energy, or the energy of truth, or the energy of love and support. 
• You can join and participate in the resistance movements, like marches, town hall meetings, writing to your representatives in Congress or in State government.
• You can speak out when you see something being done that is wrong, or that you don't agree with. You should not be silent in this time of turmoil. Humanity's future is on the line.
• You can continue to treat people with respect, love, and support. We need to continue to live the type of life we value and still continue to try and create the type of world we want to live in. 
• You can step in and stop any acts of bullying or violence. Try to limit the power of denigration and control that is growing without any leadership or moral constraints.

Hold on tight. It's going to be a rough ride.

The ability to cultivate the different types of subtle energies, or Qi, and then to develop and use them, helps you be in charge of your own life and destiny.  Being able to develop, and then use Qi, is very empowering. It removes the myth that we often are taught, that we need someone else to tell us what to do.

Being able to sense Qi, cultivate it, and then use it, helps us to be able to receive and interpret subtle messages from our Higher Self or Spiritual Guides. It also helps us to direct and use Qi to improve our life journey. These skills, which we sometimes refer to as spiritual gifts, can be developed. When you practice Qi cultivation, and then start using Qi, this is when things start to become rather amazing. What happens is that you not only start to have more moments of wonder and awe, you also start to align yourself to what your real life purpose is. When this happens, doors of wonder begin to open.

Learning to cultivate and use subtle energies, mean you no longer need to rely on a religion, or a guru, or another person of authority to tell you what to do. You begin to recognize the power is within you. Qi cultivation is a way to connect with subtle energy, learn to sense it, and then to use it. It is available to all. It is not dependent on race, gender, economic status, belief, or beauty. It is just there, waiting for you to connect and start using it.
