Understanding Spiritual Vibrations Part III

Understanding Spiritual Vibrations - Part III

Now that we have addressed the process of personal development and psychic development in the soul's journey, let's discuss actual situations and solutions...

  Typical Problems Encountered in Psychic Development:

Telepathy and Mind Control:

a) Hearing other people's thoughts

You may find, in the course of your psychic development, that you begin to hear opinions, comments or snippets of conversation which you consider to come from a source other than your own mind. These thoughts may even have a sort of 'character' or personality to them. Really, it is not surprising if you think about the fact that you have re-established your 'psychic antenna'. All people are born with this ability to sense or hear thoughts. As the child grows up towards adulthood, this survival-based mechanism recedes, being replaced by logical thought processes. With the onset of adult life, the mental clutter of a busy working day makes no room for subtle vibrations. Occasionally, there are experiences of telepathy. The 'antenna' is still there; it's just that the adult has forgotten how to use it.

When you clear the mind, you begin to find that a different sort of mental noise is heard. Rather than the nagging of your inner-critic or the voice of your worries, hopes and fears, there is something else... The voices of others hope, fears and thoughts. What you ought to learn in this instance, is to say to yourself "that's interesting", and then let it go. There is no need to obsess about these 'thoughts'.

If you think that based upon the telepathic thoughts that you are receiving, someone close to you is worried for instance, then be practical in the situation. If you had noticed an expression cross their face, then you would have conversed with them about it, if you deemed it necessary. Why not chat with this person if you know them and in the course of your friendly chat, you may discover the reason for your thoughts. If you are right, then that is a confirmation for you. But, if you are wrong, then at least you know where these thoughts did not come from! There is no need to tell anyone that you are having telepathic experiences. You can keep it all to yourself if you prefer. Some people can feel a little threatened if they find out that there is a telepath in the building! Be modest and observe your thoughts from a mental distance. Avoid being arrogant or using your new skills as ammunition. Remember the Laws of the universe.

All of that aside, you are not going crazy if you are encountering thoughts that are 'not your own'. See if you can trace their source. If you are continually bothered, then mentally 'switch off' your inner-radio and disengage your 'antenna', until things settle down.

b) Aggressive or negative incoming telepathic messages

You do not need to accept the negativity of others into your personal space. If you don't like it, then disregard it and raise your energy vibration up higher. Use psychic protection and color / light meditation.

c) Telepathic mind control

At times in your psychic development, you may have some disturbing fears regarding the ability of others to manipulate your mind. This is because, as you are developing, you may feel more 'open' and vulnerable. The only things that can influence your mind are those that you allow to do so. This includes subliminal messages or hypnotic advertising and so forth. Reject what you do not need or like. You have the power to control your own mind, so get into the driver's seat and take the wheel. Others cannot control you unless you let them. By the same token, there is no need to panic or freak out and start creating an immense mental fortress! Simply be aware that you can reject thoughts if you wish to.

On the other side of the coin, there is only one person that you should ever control, and that is yourself. Attempting to control others will bring all sorts of very tough lessons into your path. By changing yourself, you will change your reality. By attempting to control others, you complicate your life and impede your spiritual development, hindering your soul's journey to enlightenment.

Psychokinesis and Energy Control:

a) Energy control

Those of you attempting to control energy, pay close attention...

First of all energy is not controlled, it is either released or directed. If you are trying to 'control' it, then you will encounter many problems. You can accumulate it and you can then direct it towards its destination. But you cannot "control" it. Energy simply IS. In attempting to exert your power over energy, you are blocking the channel that would otherwise release it. The idea of controlling energy is not relating to you mentally, physically, emotionally or spiritually 'controlling' it or forcing it to do your will in this manner. What it is about, is directing the energy through a course of channels or via an appropriate means. Energy can be gathered and then sent upon its way, fuelled by intention and directed by connecting factors. But, energy works most effectively when it is free to flow unimpeded. Trying too hard to have power over it will impede it. Relax and simply allow.

b) Psycho-kinetic outbursts

When you least expect it, your energy zaps the curtains, setting them all a-flutter... then a poster falls off the wall - by now you're freaking out! Then suddenly the light dims and flickers... Seems like a poltergeist does it not? Well, it is not...

When the powers of psycho-kinesis are developed, you may experience 'energy-sparking' or energetic outbursts. This is where your accumulated energy sets off a series of events, or otherwise causes havoc around you. Plenty of psychics have gone through these sorts of experiences. Your fear creates even more disturbance. What you must do is settle your energy. Take a shower, go for a walk, put on some music and relax. Let the excess energy melt away, dripping down towards the floor, like a melting ice cream in the sunlight. If you are still feeling hyped up, and then engage in some physical activity such as housework or gardening, exercise or yoga. Take the dog for a walk... whatever, just as long as you use up that excess energy or shake it off. The key is to diffuse the accumulated energy before it begins to manifest as poltergeist-like activity.

  Spirits and Spirit Communication:

a) Dealing with icy or negative presences

Not all spirits are friendly or are even happy. Just as there are many personalities in the world of human beings, there are the equivalents in the world of spirit beings. If you are encountering a presence which leaves icy-cold air in its wake, or has a negative 'vibe', then it is best to raise your energy vibration and ask for angelic protection and assistance. Do not obsess over it, as this will encourage the spirit even more. Your thoughts may attract it to the physical, so put it out of your mind. Simply ask for it to leave, as you would someone that you did not take to. Change your mental focus. If it will not comply with your wishes, then invoke angelic assistance without delay. Angels are there to help you and all you need do is ask. Imagine the room filling up with white light and peace, love and healing energy.

b) Nattering, continuous voices that interrupt your sleep

Some spirits are well-meaning, but very talkative. Just as in the physical realm, you must establish boundaries including time-limits to your communication. If you are unable to sleep at night due to spirits being around, then ask them what their purpose and message is. Once you have done this, they will most likely let you sleep. If they do not tell you what they are there for, and then request that they come back at a more appropriate time.

It is essential that you respect yourself and your psychic boundaries, by first establishing them. What are you prepared to deal with? Would you prefer to only speak with spirits during the day? After working hours? How long do you feel is enough before you begin to tire out? Too much contact with the other side can leave you feeling frazzled. Tell your guides what you feel comfortable with and ask if they will assist you in maintaining these boundaries and rules.

This is a matter of your health as well. A psychic or medium needs to be healthy, having adequate rest in order to function well and attune to higher realms. Insist upon having adequate sleep. You need it. Your health is of utmost importance.

c) Some spirits are not what they pretend to be... Trickster spirits

Always look at the facts. What are the facts? They are such things as how the spirit appears, how it behaves, what it is doing and the effect that it is having over you and your life. What do you feel in its presence? What thoughts do you have? What has it got you thinking? How does its presence in your life influence your behavior? Is this a positive or negative influence? Very importantly, are there any contradictions? Does it's character or apparent classification differ from the way that you are seeing it? If it says that it is an angel, then does it behave and look like an angel? If it looks like something out of Michael Jackson's Thriller video, then what are you going to believe? I know what I'd be thinking! If it says it is a fairy and looks like a giant, then what do you think it is?

Spirits will usually appear as they are. Even if they are trying to parade as something else, you will sooner or later, notice a contradiction between their facade and their true nature. Angels will appear as angels. They have no need to disguise themselves as anything else in the spirit plane. Most of all, angels will not frighten you. Although, you will sense their immense power, purity, compassion, strength and love. Angels generally have a great deal of white light around them. They are glowing and can be so bright that looking at them is like looking into the sun. No other type of being can claim to have the spiritual ascension and purity of an angel.

If you are in contact with a spirit that claims to be something that is clearly is not, then you must discontinue your association and communication immediately. Sever the connection and align your energy to a higher vibration.

Always ask for confirmation of a spirit's claims. Follow up on information that you receive and check the facts. If it does not make sense, then it is likely to be a facade. Use your common sense and do not trust every entity that comes along. Respectful entities will earn your trust by proving their goodness and will not use you for their own ego gratification.

  Divination and Prophecy:

a) When readings and answers make no sense...

If you cannot seem to make any sense of the readings or supposed answer/s to your questions, then give it a rest for a while. You may find that although your mind is asking one question, your heart is asking another.

Incomprehensible or non-sensical readings are often the result of mental clutter and a disconnected state of being. If you are frenetic and fragmented in your energy, trying to do everything at once in a mad frenzy, then this will be reflected in the reading. Slow down and do one thing at a time. Regain your balance and focus. Then once you are centered, the answer will come.

Keep in mind that sometimes, you are not supposed to know. If this is the reason, then accept it and ask a different, unrelated question.

Other than that, it could be your skills of interpretation that are the problem, rather than the reading. Look at it in a simple manner. Avoid complicating or reading too much into it. Simplify.

b) Doing too many personal readings...

It does not matter how many readings you do on a situation, what will be … will be. You cannot change it by hoping and wishing but taking no action. Get up and do something about it. Doing reading after reading hoping that something will change or checking to see if anything has is a trap. Don't get caught up in it. Only you can change yourself and thereby, your world. Work on yourself for a day instead and you will see a greater difference to your future. Overdoing readings will only lead to confusion and dependence. Do one good reading and pay attention to what it tells you.

c) Constantly drawing negative cards, runes, images etc...

Negativity is a catalyst for change in your life. Do not be afraid of it, but see it for what it really is. Just because you pulled out the 'death' card, does not mean that you are going to die. However, it may indicate a change in your thought patterns or another aspect of your life. You will experience a transition and will move on to better things, with more wisdom. All things are dual. Life is good and bad. So, you cannot expect an accurate reading to be only good or only bad. There will be a mirror reflection of the life that you are living and the world that you are living it in. The only exception to this rule is if you can only see the negative side of things, refusing to count your blessings and display gratitude. Such a perspective can be reflected in readings. The sooner that you understand the concept of duality and change, the better you will become at your readings and interpretations of them.

  The Aura and Healing Issues:

a) Kundalini and yin/yang, masculine and feminine energy

Sensations of extreme  cold can be linked to the raising of the female and male energy, commonly called 'yin and yang' but also referred to as 'kundalini'. When both are raised in unison and perfect balance, then enlightenment is thought to occur - the raising of the serpent power - a state of ultimate bliss is experienced. This energy rises up the spine and fountains out through the crown chakra.

In the normal course of a day, male and female energy will raise and lower according to the situation at hand and other factors. The problem arises when one becomes dominant. This is not a hormonal problem as such, it is an energetic problem, even though it may very well effect the system in that manner. When the yin and yang are out of balance, various health problems can result. Chinese traditional medicine has incorporated these factors for centuries, as has Indian medicine. The concept of kundalini originates from India. Various forms of yoga and meditation are focused upon the raising of the kundalini.

The key to sorting out problems associated with the male and female energies being out of balance is to apply the opposite as a remedy. Yang or masculine energy would be counteracted and balanced by the raising of Yin or feminine energy, and vice versa.

Yin relates to that which is cold and damp, such as the fluids of the body, the colors blue, green, purple, silver and black, and gentleness, mutability and negative emotions. Yang is that which is hot and dry, such as the colors red, yellow, white, gold and orange, strength, passion and positive emotions. These are abbreviated examples of the concepts. There are many good books which detail the related substances and things to each of these energies. In these books you may discover some useful tips and remedies to counteracting certain conditions. Ayurvedic medicine addresses these issues as does acupuncture and yoga. Always seek professional advice if you have a health complaint. Orthodox medicine and complementary medicine can work very well in combination.
