How to Use the Moon Phases In Your Favor

moonSource: Psychics Universe

Police officers swear that the full moon drives people to do crazy things. Emergency room workers say they always expect a surge of patients during the nights of a full moon.

People who work with animals swear they behave differently. Some people put forth that the moon’s gravitational pull has an effect on us the same way it affects the tides—and considering we’re made of 70% water, it makes you wonder.

If the full moon can have that much of an effect on us, what about the rest of the phases of the moon? How can we use the moon phases to our full advantage?

New Moon

The new moon is a perfect time for fresh starts. If you’ve been meaning to take on a new project or make changes, the new moon is the ideal time to start making plans.

The energy of the new moon is very optimistic and energizing; it propels us forward so we can get a jump on things that need to get done. It’s also a great time to start new relationships, so it’s a good time to plan a first date.

Waxing Moon

As the new moon begins to grow, it’s energy starts to influence our long-term transformations.

If you’ve been pursuing higher education or striving to nail that project at work to secure a promotion, take advantage of the waxing moon energies and plan a late evening work session.

Creative people should also take advantage, as the waxing moon tends to bring inspiration. If you’re building something, you may find the project going smoother during waxing moon phases.

Full Moon

Contrary to popular belief, the full moon is not bad! It doesn’t make us crazy or drive us to do horrible things.

The energies of the full moon are simply powerful and abundant— they are energies that push and drive us to our full strength and determination more than any other time in the month.

If people are not ready for it, or don’t have a positive channel for that energy, it may be spent negatively, and that’s why hospitals and law enforcement agencies report so many of the bad outcomes.

To make sure you’re using full moon energy to your best advantage, plan to tackle some serious challenges during the moon that call for aggression— clean the closet you’ve been meaning to get to, or plan an extra exercise session.

This is not, however, a good night to get roped into arguments or let anger go unchecked.

Waning Moon

As the moon seemingly grows smaller night by night, its energies are prime for helping us expel or release things. It’s a good time to get rid of anything that’s no longer serving us.

Work on dropping unhealthy habits or negative patterns of behavior.

Have that heart to heart conversation with a loved one you’ve been meaning to have. Get out your feelings and clear the air. If a relationship isn’t going well, it may be a good time to break up.

Try to purge pent-up emotions with a good cry or by writing them out on paper so that you can release them.

Dark Moon

When the moon isn’t even visible in the sky at night, it’s called a dark moon. This period of time is best utilized by resting and recharging your batteries. If you’ve been overworked, plan a day of leisure or get to bed a couple of hours early.

Spend some extra time in meditation. It’s a good time to sit quietly and contemplate worries or problems, as the energies of this moon during a quiet moment will help draw out the inner wisdom to help you deal with things.

Getting From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

pathBy: Chris D’Cruz, Keeper of the Universal Life Secrets

Dr. Joe Vitale, motivational speaker and author, often says: “the fastest way to get where you want is to be happy with where you are.”

Believe it or not, this mindset works! It may take some changes and soul searching on your part, but in the end, it’ll be more than worth it to adopt this positive mentality.

While you should strive to make your dreams come true, concentrate, also, on yourself and your journey. When you spend less time wishing things were different and more time accepting what you’ve got, you’ve already found a sense of peace and happiness right there.

6 tips that can help you become who you want to be right now:

1. Feel gratitude. When you concentrate on the big picture, it’s easier to exhibit feelings of gratitude. When you’re grateful, you remain positive and appreciative of every joyful moment in life.

Sometimes people get too caught up in a sense of entitlement, which leads to negative feelings. Concentrating on gratitude, instead, will get you where you desire.

2. Be optimistic. Some say that life is all about optimism. And it’s true! An optimistic attitude is one of the few things you need to succeed.

If you’re trying to achieve a concrete goal, optimism will help you accomplish it.

If you’re trying to change your mindset, optimism will make the task easier.

Optimism can be the driving force that keeps you going.

3. Exhibit the traits you desire. It was Gandhi who said that you should be the change you want to see in the world.

With these wise words in mind, you can replace wanting with some bold action. With some persistence and perseverance, you can make it happen.

4. Adopt a prosperous mindset. Take a moment to determine what prosperity means to you. Are you hoping for money, a fulfilling career, or a relationship that lasts a lifetime?

Know what you want, then adopt the right mindset. Once you do, you’ve then set yourself in the right direction toward your goals.

5. Find the silver lining. As you go through life, you will no doubt realize that things are not always going to go your way. But even in tough times you need to keep your chin up.

Instead of allowing negativity to consume your life, seek out the silver lining. This fresh attitude can be the difference between being held hostage and achieving your goals.

6. Take small steps. When the place you’re going seems far away and unachievable, it’s important to break it down into small steps.

Give yourself an achievable goal with a realistic time frame. Break that one down into smaller goals.

When you avoid getting overwhelmed, you’ll gain the confidence to persevere.

You’re Already There

It’s a good idea to practice one of these tips at a time until you’ve incorporated them into your life.

Perhaps you can spend a week perfecting one strategy and, then the next week, add another one to your repertoire while continuing with the first one. Soon enough, you’ll be a natural at all of them!

Once you choose a powerful and positive mindset, you’ll find that you’ve already achieved much of what you want.

Just remember: You already have the traits, mindset, and lifestyle you desire, and you know that success is inevitable, but only when you have the will to break through the obstacles in your mind!

Recognizing TRUTH… in 5 Steps

ways-to-recognize-liarsBy: Lisa Young / Source: Wake Up World

How do you recognize and trust what is Truth? With so much conflicting information available to us on every imaginable topic, how do you discern what is Truth, what is fabricated, or just confused half truths?

Here are 5 simple steps to recognizing TRUTH.

Recognizing Truth

1. Go to the SOURCE

The easiest way is to go to Source.

Truth is actually an energy, a formula and a principle of Source. Before it is articulated into specific information or “fact”, it is an energy and a specific frequency.

Because it is an energy, it can bypass the human mind and organically be registered by the body and spirit for confirmation. Many times we “feel” the Truth of something and cannot even explain it. We just “know” it is right.

The more you are connected to Source, the easier it becomes to recognize TRUTH. It plugs you directly into the main power hub of its distribution throughout our Universe, free of any human interpretation or manipulation.

It re-aligns you directly with the Truth of your Divine Self and Blueprint. By calibrating ourselves to this Divine hook-up, it is immensely easier to know and recognize Truth.

2. Trust You Have Direct Access

Each of us now have this direct access. For millennia, we looked to certain individuals to bring through and access Truth for us. Whether it was our guru, priest, rabbi or teacher, most did not feel we had the ability or even permission to know the greatest and highest Truths of the Universe.

But we are living in a New Reality and each of us now has our own private line to God, Source and all the wisdom and intelligence of the Universe.

What makes it even more amazing is that each of us has our own unique and intuitive way of discerning Truth. The trick is to recognize and hone your body and energy field to become a precise tuning fork for the frequency of Truth.

3. Refine Your Beliefs

Part of this refining process is about becoming conscious of the many voices and at times, beliefs, that we have taken on from family, school, authority, media and religion about what we hold as truth.

Most of us are living from a collection of beliefs that are really not even our own. We have absorbed them unconsciously and made them the foundation of our reality.

As we ask to experience and awaken more to our Divine Selves and our truth barometer, we may notice that we question more of our thoughts and long-held perceptions.

We begin to look at them through a different lens and find that some feel a bit flimsy. We become more apt to notice the beliefs that keep us small, limited, stuck and realize they are old, false and no longer serve us.

And with this clarity, it becomes easier to lean into more of our innate knowing of who we are and what resonates within us as Truth.

4. Recognize Your Way Of Experiencing Truth

Becoming aware of our way of attuning to Truth is a very personal experience. I have many clients who get goose bumps or chills when they hear Truth.

Their body reacts to the energy with an immediate physical indicator. Others will involuntarily feel themselves pause and the mind grow quiet.

The merging with Truth takes them to a different part of themselves that is deep and integral to who they are and they experience a type of re-set. Many have an emotional reaction and tear-up as the Truth vibrates through them and is recognized (or THEY feel recognized).

Paying attention to the way your body and spirit respond to Truth can become a very powerful personal tool from which to move through life.

By attuning our physical, mental and emotional self to Truth, we grow in self-trust, as we no longer need to look outside ourselves for answers.

5. Activate and Align with the Truth Frequency

As we connect with Source, re-align with those beliefs that are resonant with who we really are, and notice our unique response to TRUTH, we activate and align to the frequency of TRUTH within us and in our cells.

We activate our own expression and with it remember more of the TRUTH of who we really are…

Pure Source Consciousness experiencing itself in a fantastically unique human expression.

And with this remembrance, LIFE unfolds into the rich, flowing and joyful experience it was meant to be. We trust ourselves and fine tune our intuitive knowing until it becomes a clear and powerful guide.

 

How to Hone Your Bliss Instinct: a Guide to Following Your Bliss

true_blissBy: Indra / Source: Wake Up World

Ponder this thought for a moment: Planet earth is a video game. Consider that we are all are here to “win” the game of life, or rather get to mastery skill levels, and to slay the proverbial dragons we encounter with our incredible agility, mental acuity, and wit.

All along the journey there are traps to lead us astray, as well as important clues, signs, and road maps. We are provided only one tool to distinguish between the traps and the clues, to determine which is leading us to victory and true survival, and which to our demise.

Perhaps you’d agree that it would be no fun if this tool were easy to use. Otherwise if too simple, we would find a need to program into the game varying levels of complexity.

In order to accomplish this, we adopt a multi-layered feeling-based tool known as intuition, or radar, or our gut feeling. The basic premise is that when you feel certain things, it’s a “green light”, and when you feel others, it’s a “red light”.

Following your bliss

When Joseph Campbell said “follow your bliss”, I doubt he realized his simplistic suggestion actually decoded a highly sophisticated tool. Indeed, following your intuition — your Bliss Instinct — is a science.

I call it the language of the soul. Those of us who have worked on honing it have come know a higher rate of being “right” about things, people, circumstances, and situations. I call it a “right rate”.

Do you or someone you know have an astronomically high right rate? Have you experienced this phenomenon over time and watched it prove itself consistently? What makes you or another person perform with this degree of rightness?

Although your first response may be “they are more intuitive or more enlightened, smarter even”, I have come to a different conclusion based on my personal experience.

I believe we all have the same brand of intuition. Let’s call it “Bliss Instinct” for a second. Like any tool, the skill level of the user does have a strong influence. Yet one underestimated factor that I’ve seen is the state of the physical body that is deciphering the Bliss Instinct.

It is the difference between going through an obstacle course with eyes wide open, or through the course with a blindfold on.

The density and toxicity that we often collect and accumulate in our physical bodies actually blocks access to our glands. For example, the pineal gland is the center for knowing.

It’s our “third eye”. Once we “know” something, it still has to go through a series of other challenges before it is manifested.

Said more fully, you may have a very pure pineal gland, but your thyroid or adrenals are blocked, and they are responsible for speaking your truth and personal power. Your actions and delivery may become blocked, and so the intuition never gets acted upon.

Do you see the correlation? It is important to detoxify all aspects of our body.

Here’s the fact of the matter: Purifying the body and losing its density is directly related to being an effective human being on Planet Blue. Your Bliss Instinct/intution at its best will go to the full range of all of the glands in the body before it outputs a result.

A result, having come about after it had been run through the innate intelligence of all of the glands, has a much greater chance of being correct. In other words, it has been “signed off” by all your systems.

You have literally tapped into every form of intelligence you inherently have access to.

Higher glands like the pineal, pituitary, thyroid, and nervous system are often blocked by subtle frequencies like electromagnetic pollution, mercury, flouride, plastics, other chemicals and toxins.

The adrenals and the pancreas often get covered up by fat deposits, cellulite, and toxins which guard their ability to feel and to deliver the subtle messages of the language of the soul.

The toxins also bind with fats and create dense masses of inorganic matter within the body, which ultimately block the flow of this beautiful intelligence.

Here are my top 3 gland cleansing tricks:

Detoxification of the body:

With ancient tools used for centuries by yogis and Chinese masters. Any tools that stand the test of time are, indeed, effective. (My favorite of them is fulvic acid).

DNA activation of glands:

As we discovered the power of the glands, we have discovered simple and effective techniques to activate them. (To learn more, please see: DNA Activation: a Secret to Personal Transformation.)

Change of lifestyle:

Once you hear the voice of your “Higher Octave”, you can’t go back. It is simply so much more intelligent that your own wisdom – with a dash of magic and epiphany! It will astound you in the beginning, yet you’ll get used to the excitement! :)

This to me is the willing alchemy in this game called Life. Know your enemy, yet also know that you are the Ultimate! The rest are just obstacles in the game designed for us to see, recognize, and decode, and that’s where all the fun is!
