It’s Summer time and the Livin’ is Easy…

At least that is what the song says. Anyone that lives in the south knows that is not a true statement.  Or, is it? It can be if we are able to step out of winter’s shell of cold and take a new look at the Sun. Yes, the heat of  the Sun can be brutal in the summer but it is full of fabulous energy for us to enjoy!

The Sun Card in the Tarot deck reminds us of new beginnings, having fun and even the lessons that we learn from experiencing new opportunities.  Summer time has been represented in books, plays and movies as an innocent time in one’s life. Summer is supposed to be full of new adventures and laughter.  As a kid, did we not learn those summer days and nights?

During a reading sometime in the last month or so my childhood summer days spent at my grandmother’s home in the county unexpectedly came back to me.  The days were always very hot but the evenings gave us a nice breeze across the front porch.  I had vivid memories of sneaking out to enjoy the breeze and to sit quietly so that I could hear the members of a tiny church in the distance as they sang their wonderful, soulful songs. The evening sounds and the smells of the barn yards, cotton fields and even dinner fragrances still lingered in my memory as if it were last night.

The first time my grandmother caught me sitting by myself on the front porch, I just knew that I was in trouble!   She slid down by me, put her arm around me and drew my attention to the Dippers. In her soft Irish brough she said, “All that music is going into the Big Dipper so that it can be poured out on some other part of the world that does not have such pretty sounds and all of the smells that you love are going into the Little Dipper so that you can reach up and pour them out whenever you want to enjoy them anytime, anyplace.”  At the tender age of four I believed every word she said.

Over the years, knowing full well that I was not supposed to be out by myself at night, I would go to the porch every chance I could just to draw her out with me. That went on until she could not get up and down the stairs. After that I would climb into bed with her, regardless of my age, and look out of her big bedroom window. We would giggle about the day and wonder what sounds and smells were worthy of going  into the Dippers that night.

I  still retrieve a delicious memory from the Little Dipper or tip the Big Dipper for a sound that I have been missing. Every now and then when I look up to the Dippers I swear that I can see her hands on them waiting to spill out the one memory that I need the most.  Sometimes, it’s  just the sound of the horses as they settled in for the night or the taste of  corn on the cob fresh from the fields.  Always, it’s her voice and the sweet music coming from the tiny church.

This might be the year for you to enjoy a picnic under the Sun and attend the evening outdoor concerts that are often free. Share precious time with loved ones, volunteer somewhere that needs your light, your smiling face and willing hands.  Teach someone that needs your attention, learn something new for yourself.

This summer get out and treat yourself to a new sound and a new smell.  But most of all, make an effort to bring back some of your special memories…from where ever you have them stored.

So sad that this was the last fair of the year but it was a lot of fun!  Where has the year gone?

The fair was at the Radisson Hotel in Austin, Texas. As usual there were many vendors, readers, lectures and all around sharing of hugs and good energy.  It was a slow Saturday, which is unusual but Sunday was very busy. Thanks for being there if you were and if you weren’t, hope to see you next time.

If you have never been to a fair please join us in January. We will do the first fair of the year on Jan. 8th and 9th at the Radisson Hotel, 6000 Middle Fiskville Road, Austin, Texas.  If you are not in this area please find a fair close to you and go. Even if you don’t get readings the vendors and lectures are fun to experience.  We have a predictions panel on the Friday night before the fair, 7pm at the hotel.  Ours is often long because there are at least 4 psychics doing the talking and you know psychics, we can talk! Just joking…  No, I am not on the panel but I will be there helping with what ever they need to make the evening as enjoyable for both the panel and the public.  Come join us for the evening.

Part of the fun of the fairs are connecting with new clients and reconnecting with folks that I have read for in the past.  For some of them that is the only place that I get to enjoy their company. For others, it is a reminder that we need to make time for each other outside of the fair atmosphere. That is so with Janine.  She owns a company called Haunted Texas.  The website is hauntedtexas.com.

Yes, I have done some fun stuff with her in the past but that is not why I mention her here. Her company is having exciting adventures that she will be sharing with the public very soon.  Haunted structures and land are every where and she is called to go explore who or what is there and why they are hanging out . Go check out her web site to see how real haunted can be.

And, then there was Clair. She told me about a new grocery store in the Georgetown, Texas that carries only natural products. The owners also own and operate Dyer Dairy. They sell their milk, other dairy products and farm grown natural veggies at the store. Check them out at www.dyerdairy.com. The site is easy to move around in and tells us all we need to know to get those of us that prefer natural farm grown products into their store. Claire told me that the dairy farm is not new but the grocery store is. Go check it out if you live near by.  If not, find a store that sells as natural as you get in your area!

See, one finds all kinds of people at at psychic fair.

Oh! This is important. Kramer of astrofish.net has a new training video out now. It is called The Barefoot Astrology Video. It is a tutorial, a class, a workshop, it is even a textbook.  Call it an Astrology Primer, easy enough for the beginner but with original material fit for an expert.  You will find this fresh catch at astrofish.net.

Thanks for joining me.  See ya again soon.

Meanwhile, have a great Thanksgiving!

Blessings, Elaine

LISTEN

When I heard that Geoff Huff was selling words I was both amused and shocked.  Well, shocked is to strong a word, but how and why would anyone sell a word?  Those are free for all of us to use, right?  Yes, they are! Free, that is!

Not only that, we can use them any way we want to! So there!

I went about my day, and every now and then a thought would cross my mind about the idea and action of buying a word. One of my first thoughts was that was not only clever, but a great marketing tool that could make for a lot of fun!

Then little whispers of the how, why and when we use words in general crept in.  We are not always responsible with our words. We misuse them, love and hurt with them.  They can become both targets and weapons if we are not careful and depending on who hears them.  What did I just say? “Hears them”.  That is part of the word listen. When  we say words someone might hear them .  I liked that train of thought.

Then there is the question of, what does one DO with a word that is heard?   There are so many ways that a word can be received into our world. As a psychic I am responsible for the words that come out of my mouth. I must be sure that they are helpful not harmful.  Wow!  See what I mean? Once I let the energy of the idea of what words mean when they become the energy to be listened to my imagination went wild.  I loved it!  No wonder Geoff loves words and is such a great writer!

To listen has always been very important to me.  I was trained to listen to, not interpret what Spirit was telling me. Sometimes that meant for me to use the information and sometimes it was information for a client. Either way, I have to make sure that the words being heard get to the right place in exactly the way they are given to me.  On a deeper level, I have to be responsible to the person getting the message.  That means making sure that they understand the under lying meanings of the words being used. You could call that interpretation but it isn’t.  It is presented to them as an exercise that involves simply hearing what was said. The client and their guides will put the needed meanings on the words.

Listening can be the most precious gift that you can give someone.  Just being present as words flow with pain or joy can be the act that is needed most . Sometimes words are not what we are listening to. Sometimes it is the sound of laughter or sobbing pain.

Needless to say, I bought the word listen. When we spend money on something we tend to take better care of it.  Language has been given to us to use how ever we want and so has the ability to listen to each other.

Now go to Geoff’s site, http://www.LawOfAttractionWords.com and buy a word for yourself.

Thanks for listening to me…

Blessings, Elaine

Hi,

Why don’t psychic predictions come true all of the time?  Is the Universe playing games with us? Was the psychic a bad one?

These questions were put in my world because of a reading that I did for a lady not long ago. She sent me an email saying that my predictions had not come true and that she had given them  “plenty of time” to happen.  She implied that I was a bad psychic. No, she did not tell me what predictions did not happen but obviously she was upset. She did not ask me why, just made the statement.

Okay, that got me to thinking. I know that this was not the first time that a prediction had not come true but for some reason I felt that I needed to address the issue this time around.

Why don’t predictions come true?  I decided to contact a few other fellow professionals and get their take on the question.

My friend Kat Avino (Katsangeleyes.com) who lives in New York and has a successful career as a psychic and teacher was the first to return my phone call. After over an hour of discussion about in depth issues like karma, individual social and religious conditioning, and one’s responsibilities to self, it all came down to our very own FREE WILL and how we use it.

Now, if we get a prediction, is that what is supposed to happen, regardless? What about the time honored destiny stop? That is THE thing that is supposed to happen. Right? Well, yes, but…

Destiny stops can be altered by the decisions and actions that we take on the human level and the spiritual level. We may have made the agreement for an event to happen, but if we take care of the issue on a spiritual level then we do not have to experience it here in the human form.  That is what changes the prediction. Call that the Spiritual learning curve.

Yanie Brewer is another fellow professional and friend. I loved it when she made the comment that none of us like it when we realize that we do create our own reality and that free will happens even when we do not realize it!

Kramer at Astrofish.net was the next one to connect with. I needed to find out what one of the best astrologers in the nation had to say about this. After all, the stars are set in the sky and that makes what ever they say as a must happen event. Well, so I thought. I have great respect for astrology. I have benefited for years because of Kramer’s expertise. On this call my time with him was spent on the questions of how and why predictions could change even if the stars are aligned a certain way in one’s chart. The final outcome was again, free will.  Yes, we come into a life time with certain events, challenges, etc. set by the heavenly line up. Just like we do with the karma line up. BUT, we do get the option of expressing free will.

Let me emphasize that if there is a lesson to be learned there will be a life time when it will happens. That includes love, all levels of financial success and physical challenges.  Before your many lives on planet earth is done, you will be able to live in many body types and colors, you will have all levels of success and participate in most belief systems.  Through it all you will have free will to make the best choices for you at any given moment.

You may not get the man or woman of your choice even if a psychic tells you will. Why? Because for some reason, on some level, your free will set in and helped you step out side of the need for the lesson, with that person, to be completed at that time. Or, the lesson is finished and you do not realize it yet.  The need for the lesson is done. Time to move on to the next wonderful relationship.  No, may not feel good but it is what is necessary this time.

Same thing could be said for money issues and health issues for you and your loved one.  Our human egos do not like when we do not get our way. Often it hurts, just plain ole hurts. And, for that I am sorry. But, as a professional psychic there is nothing that I can do for my clients except try to share what I understand about the how and why of the marvelous thing called Spiritual learning.

I don’t know why we get the information that we get for our clients except to say that is what they are supposed to know at the moment. Clients are supposed to use that information to help them make decisions and hopefully move forward in a positive way.

When things do not happen as predicted then please look at the other lives that are involved, how yours has changed during this time frame and what other doors are opening for you.

Why keep going to psychic? Because psychics are connected on a level with the Universe that some are not.  We can give you information that can be helpful to you. And, then there is the times when a client gets a message that makes them say, “Oh, yes I can”! And, that is exactly what Spirit hopes will happen.  A little reverse psychology is good for some of us.

Here’s hoping that all of your predictions are the ones that you want and that they all come true for you!

Blessings, Elaine
