Welcome, I'm Selene, Editor-In-Chief of the Psychic Times Newsletter. Each month, in this column, I'll be giving you the highlight's of the issue and sharing some personal thoughts. Please read on...

Dear Readers,

Hello! Welcome to our December 2008 issue. Seasons Greetings and Holiday Blessings to you from Florida, I am very grateful to have extra time to be close to the beautiful ocean this month. I am still glowing from the great time we all had on Psychic Cruise 2008. It was so wonderful to meet everyone who joined us on the beautiful Enchantment of the Seas. It was particularly awesome to finally meet my lovely colleagues Chayya, Zoë and Raven in person. I was blessed to perform a beautiful Marriage Blessing and hand-fasting ceremony for Zoë and her new husband Brad on 11/11 at 11 pm under the stars on the top deck of the ship. They were celebrating their honeymoon on the ship and were wed near their home in Ohio on 8/8/08 at 8 pm. Psychics and numbers, we do try to work together, and with these powerful numbers they chose for their ceremonies it is sure to be a long and happy union. We all felt very grateful to be a part of their special occasion. Becky Ryan from Cruise Brothers organized a great trip for us. Thank you Becky, we all really appreciate the time and energy you put into organizing our get-togethers and seminars. The workshops were fascinating, we all learned so much. I shared some of what I presented in my own seminar in this month’s Eye-Opener column. Be sure to check it out to learn about working with the lunar cycles, particularly the New Moon as a tool of manifestation.

I hope you are all adjusting to Pluto in Capricorn, when this slow moving planet leaves one sign and enters another it is the start of a new time on the planet. Pluto was last in Capricorn around the time of the Revolutionary War when the United States first became an independent and sovereign nation. Pluto the transformer in practical, ambitious and goal oriented Capricorn will dismantle the status quo which we are all experiencing now but when the dust settles and things stabilize, we will find we are indeed going in a new direction that will be better for us in the long run. At this time of global unrest and uncertainty each of us is challenged to do the best we can and maintain our equilibrium as we learn to go with the flow and hope for the best. It is indeed a time to seek answers and a new sense of purpose in order to cope with all the changes we are experiencing. I hope you find some enlightenment here and a sense of spiritual community that makes you look forward to each issue. I will do my best to come up with new ideas and subjects to cover to keep Psychic Times interesting and informative. I encourage you to send me your feedback, ideas and questions to editor@psychictimes.com

December’s Psychic of the Month is Chayya, take the time to read her interview and catch up with what this very busy and motivated lady is up to now. Once again we are presenting an updated interview with one of our most long term and beloved Psychics. Tracey had previously interviewed her in May 2006; this month’s interview is a follow up to that very interesting article and offers you even more in-depth information about Chayya and the services she offers on Psychic Access. I sure enjoyed getting to meet her and experiencing her seminar on the cruise. She graciously shared the incredible Spirit Guide meditation she lead us through on the ship for you in her interview. Be sure to check her column out too. Send your question in; you could be the lucky winner of a free reading in January’s Chayya Knows column.

We are thrilled to present Salome’s new column, Shaman’s Corner, in this issue. Look for it each month for a glimpse into what our favorite Shaman and her Guides have to share with us. You will always learn something very relevant each month will receive another part to the cosmic puzzle. As always, Feraion is here to enlighten us and make us think offering yet another part of that puzzle and in this issue he offers us Hope for brighter days ahead.

Participate with us and our newsletter; we want YOU to be involved. Send us your recipes for our Food for the Soul column. I bet one of you has a great recipe for Hoppin’ John or Ham and Black-eyed Peas, the traditional dish of good luck for the New Year. Share that or one of your other winter favorites. Send your prayer requests in whether it is for yourself or a loved one, the prayer request can be for any issue in life. Send your questions in to Chayya Knows or your feedback on Shaman’s Corner or the Eye-Opener. If you have Astrology questions feel free to send that in to me too. We invite your participation so please email me editor@psychictimes.com. Look for your favorite readers on Psychic Access and be sure to join us next month when I report back about my experiences at the Mayan Temple in Tulum.

We all need to have time to ourselves for rest and spiritual rejuvenation. In difficult times we may just need to get away from the routine and issues that seem to be stuck in our lives. By creating that space for sanctuary we replenish the energy we give to others, this is exactly what Spirit has guided me to do this winter and I look forward to sharing some of my adventures and travels with you next month too.

The staffs of Psychic Times and Psychic Access wish you the very Happiest of Holidays and all the Best in 2009. See you here in January.

Love & Blessings,

Selene

Becoming aware of and working with the lunar cycle has been a very important aspect of my own spiritual journey in life. It has been a key to awakening very powerful energies within and helping me to create the right livelihood and career I desired as well as the opportunity to live the sort of life I dreamed of. Women are very linked to the moon; the effects of the lunar cycle affect creation as well as moods and the ability to manifest. In the old days before there were electric lights, women’s bodies and their cycles were very much in synch with the Moon. During the New Moon or absence of light, women would have their menstrual cycles. At the time of the New Moon the Sun and Moon are conjunct or in the same astrological sign and it is a seed time for new beginnings. In the Native American tradition, this was the Moon lodge time when women remained separate from the rest of the tribe and spent this time on creative projects and rest. The men would have to fend for themselves and would have their own form of bonding and camaraderie that would strengthen their ties to each other as well.

Just as groups of female friends may notice that they seem to have their cycles around the same time each month when they spend time together, this is part of nature. The legends about the Full Moon also have to do with this being the time of ovulation for women if the New Moon was when they experienced their cycle. At the Full Moon they were fertile and this is when conception of new life would occur, this is why many babies are born around the Full Moon since it is an opposition of the Moon to the Sun each month. A human pregnancy is actually 10 lunar months or 280 days. Of course for the past 100 years or so women have not been as in synch with the lunar cycle but if you care to track it, you will notice that your body will begin to respond to the lunar cycle and you will see a definite pattern.

For decades I have practiced different ways of working with the Moon, paying particular attention to the New Moon as a time of fresh starts and beginning new enterprises. Most of the methods of working with the New Moon have to do with setting intentions and putting into writing what it is you wish to manifest. I had good success during the early 90s with working a method utilizing the Runes and journaling techniques; the focus was on ascension and self understanding. I studied with the creator of this method when she offered a workshop locally and was very impressed with what she taught. I learned a lot but knew it was not the only way to work with the Moon and longed for more information to supplement and explore with. I felt it really helped me in being able to ask for what I wanted and to expect results but after a time it seemed too esoteric and I moved on to other methods for more rapid and tangible results.

I joined and soon became the leader of an eclectic Women’s group where we practiced rituals each New and Full Moon along with the solar holidays following the Wheel of the Year according to the Wiccan traditions. Following the natural cycles of time, paying attention to the moon each and every day and the Solstices, Equinoxes and points in-between really helped me to move further along my path. I learned a lot about positive spell work in those days and how powerful working with the elements, colors, herbs, crystals, candles etc. could be. This greatly assisted me with the transition to becoming a full time professional psychic, astrologer and healer. For several years I was diligent about this work and my studies of the old ways. I was very devoted to the group of seekers I had joined and been asked to lead but in time all things come to an end and later I continued to work with the Moon and Solar cycles as a solitary practitioner. Natural time is the way of the Ancients before there were clocks and calendars we relied on the Moon, Sun and Stars to know when the time was right for different aspects of our lives. The Full Moon is the time of culmination and power, what you put your attention on at this time will grow and it is a most powerful time to work on the seeds you planted with the New Moon. There are hundreds of books on this subject, I highly recommend the work of Diane Stein on Women’s spirituality, DJ Conway, Scott Cunningham, Sirona Knight and Shekinah Mountainwater are other authors I revere and have studied their books for clarity on my path of working with the lunar cycles.

Eventually I discovered that there was a most potent and powerful astrological method of working with the New Moon. I have followed and taught this method for over 5 years now and will share with you some of the wonderful information I learned in one of my favorite books of all time “New Moon Astrology” by Jan Spiller. She is one of my favorite authors on Astrology, I had her earlier books “Spiritual Astrology” and “Astrology for the Soul”, upon discovering this new book when it was published in 2001, I knew I had found a way to manifest that combined my connection with the lunar cycle along with the signs of the Zodiac. I have developed my own methods to supplement her theory of making wishes each month with the New Moon. I began teaching a class on Psychic Web each month and lead dozens of our members in learning this method and working with it. I also presented workshops on it on Psychic Cruises 2004, 2005 and again this year in 2008. There is strength in numbers and I feel that all of us working on this together have helped to empower our individual efforts as well.

I highly recommend that you purchase and read the book “New Moon Astrology” by Jan Spiller; she also offers a lot of additional information and support on her website. I have belonged to her site as a member for years and feel that it is well worth the minimal monthly fee. The following information is quoted from her book and gives you the basics on using the New Moon Power Days each month to change and revitalize your life. The basic premise is to write between 2-10 wishes on paper in the first 8 hours following the New Moon. The process can be completed for up to 48 hours following the New Moon provided the Moon does not go void of course in that interval. A good astrological calendar such as Jim Maynard’s classic Celestial Guide will give you the exact time of the New Moon as well as when the Moon goes void of course. At the time of the New Moon the Angels are closer to the Earth and will help to empower your wishes to assist you with manifesting them. Do not do your wish list even one minute before the actual time of the New Moon as the Balsamic phase of the Moon is for release and letting go rather than building or planting seeds. Give this process some time and approach the wishes from different perspectives, making two or three wishes about different aspects of the same thing works much better than making a long run on wish that covers multiple parts and dissipates the energy. I recommend getting a special journal to keep your wish lists in and going back to read them over later to see your progress and what wishes you may want to repeat to see them manifest.

Here are the rules of the road quoted directly from Jan Spiller’s book “New Moon Astrology” to help you get started:

“Rules of the Road

DO write down your wish list within eight hours following the exact time of the New Moon, whenever possible.

DO write your wishes down by hand each month.

DO NOT write more than ten wishes on anyone Power Day. DO write more than one wish on each Power Day.

DO date and keep your wish lists.

DO trust yourself in writing down those wishes that truly make you feel harmonious on the exact day of the New Moon.

DO trust your own process. The Universe wants you to be happy. If a wish doesn't come true immediately, keep repeating it, or watch to see what unexpected benefit comes in its place.

DO NOT make wishes for other people. It won't work.

DO make wishes shifting YOUR approach to other people whom you want to influence.”

Each month you can make wishes for the things you want to manifest such as about relationships, career, finances, health etc. It is also very helpful to make a few wishes each month pertaining to what that particular sign of the Zodiac actually rules. For example with the Capricorn New Moon which occurs on December 27th this would be a good time to make wishes about Future Security, Handling Responsibility, Reaching Goals, Success, Releasing controlling tendencies etc. You do want to state your wish clearly saying that you want this to happen or manifest. Wishes are different from affirmations in that affirmations are stated as if the desired outcome already exists. Wishes clearly say “I want” and you do want to qualify that you want things to happen or manifest easily. The following excerpt is presented from Jan Spiller’s book to illustrate the many different ways to make wishes about relationships:

“ROMANCE

Different stages and situations in our lives may require work in very distinct areas in order to experience romantic satisfaction. For example, the issue may be attracting a new romantic partner, changing our attitudes so that romance can flourish, or rekindling romance in an existing relationship.

SEEKING A NEW ROMANCE

People who are single and not currently involved in a satisfying love relationship may desire someone new in their lives with whom they can experience the joys of romance.

Wishes to Attract a New Romantic Partner:

• "I want to easily attract, recognize, and find myself dating the right (woman/man) with whom I share romantic energy and have happy, healthy experiences";
• "I want to begin dating (men/women) who are (secure, solid, confident within themselves, etc.)";
• "I want to easily follow information that leads me to go to the place where I meet the (woman/man) of my dreams";
• "I want to fall in love in a happy, healthy way";
• "I want to experience a happy, healthy romantic relationship that is comfortable, enduring, and satisfying for both myself and my partner";
• "I want to easily attract, recognize, and begin a happy, healthy romantic relationship with one of my positive soul mates";
• "I want to easily attract, recognize, and begin a happy, healthy romantic relationship with a ____(man/woman) I am at ease with, who's fun, who wants to grow, and with whom I share similar interests."

Wishes to Enhance Personal Attractiveness:

• "I want to easily find myself receptive to experiencing a happy, healthy romance in my life";
• "I want to easily find myself feeling comfortable with (women/men), approaching even the most desirable with the energy of friendship and genuine interest in them as individuals";
• "I want lots of charisma in my relationships with_____(men/women), leading to happy, healthy experiences";
• "I want to easily find myself saying the right things that make me romantically attractive to (men/women) in a happy, healthy way";
• "I want to enjoy the energy of flirtation in an easy, fun way";
• "I want to easily find myself accepting love from others and from life in a healthy, happy way";
• "I want to easily find myself handling romance in a way that is in my overall best interests";
• "I want to be fully aware of the opportunities for romance in my life, and easily find myself graciously accepting those that are happy, healthy, and nurturing."

HEALING INNER RESISTANCE

Sometimes the barrier to romance is actually our own inner resistance to believing that it is truly possible for us. In this case, the first challenge is to heal this subconscious resistance so that we can attract the happiness and fulfillment we seek.

Wishes to Help Heal Inner Resistance to Romance:

• "I want total clarity regarding the area of romantic attraction, leading to a healing of any unconscious resistance to experiencing personal love";
• "I want to easily release all obstructions to my experiencing the joy and playfulness of romance";
• "I want all resistance to being happy in a romantic relationship totally lifted from me";
• "I want all self-defeating tension and fear around experiencing happiness in romance totally lifted from me";
• "I want all self-sabotaging patterns in romantic relationships totally lifted from me";
• "I want all resistance to experiencing the healing of a healthy, happy romantic relationship in my life totally lifted from me";
• "I want to be willing to be open to creating a successful romantic relationship that brings me joy."

INCREASING SELF-CONFIDENCE IN ROMANCE

It may be that the most important work initially will focus on feeling better about ourselves and creating more self-confidence in approaching a romantic relationship.

Wishes to Increase Self-Confidence:

• "I want to easily find myself filled with healthy self-confidence relative to the arena of dating";
• "I want to be filled with lots of self confidence in approaching those (women/men) that I feel attracted to, and saying the right words that will easily initiate a conversation";
• "I want to be filled with healthy self-confidence about how attractive I am!"
• "I want to easily find myself filled with right ideas about how to successfully court and win the (lady/man) I want";
• "I want to be filled with ease in romantic relationships, conversing naturally, and genuinely taking an interest in the other person and getting to know them."

DEVELOPING SUCCESSFUL PATTERNS OF ROMANTIC RELATING

When someone with whom there is the potential for a healthy romantic relationship enters our lives, sometimes personality habits that repel, rather than attract, the other person begin to express themselves. Developing successful patterns of relating allows for the possibility of a positive outcome when a romantic opportunity arises.

Wishes to Develop Positive Patterns if Relating in Romance:

• "I want total clarity in romance, empowering me to discriminate which issues are whose";
• "I want to easily find myself responding to romantic attraction by taking the relationship slowly, allowing the process of getting to know one another to flourish";
• "In developing a romance, I want to easily find myself giving the relationship quality time and helping to create a sense of joy and adventure";
• "I want to easily find myself successfully adding the sexual component to romance when the time is right and I feel comfortable";
• "I want to easily find myself really getting to know those I am attracted to, and communicating my honest feelings before becoming romantically involved with them";
• "I want the habit of ' passive dating behavior' totally lifted from me."

REKINDLING ROMANCE IN AN EXISTING RELATIONSHIP

Sometimes we find ourselves in an ongoing relationship that is satisfying in many ways, but lacks the romantic spark we would like for maximum enjoyment. In this case, one of the following wishes may help to renew a sense of romance.

Wishes to Help Rekindle Romance:

• "I want all inner resistance to experiencing happiness and romance in my relationship with_____ easily lifted from me";
• "I want to easily find myself saying the right words to ______that evoke feelings of love in our relationship";
• "I want total clarity in my relationship with _____, leading to my taking steps that result in greater happiness and love between us";
• "I want to easily find myself communicating with my romantic partner in a way that creates mutual understanding, accord, and happy cooperation";
• "I want to easily find myself interacting with my romantic partner in a way that keeps love between us alive, happy, and fun!";
• "I want to easily find myself successfully adding the ingredient of romance to my relationship, with _____"

As you can see with the examples illustrated above there are several ways to go about this wish process. The groups that worked together with me on Psychic Web and on the Psychic Cruises have reported results that ranged from very impressive to miraculous. I highly recommend the information in this book and suggest you check it out and work with the additional guidance that comes through to you as you experiment with the process. There is much more to it than what is contained in this brief introduction. Buy and read the book to learn about your Granddaddy power period, a time we each experience for 3-5 weeks each year based on when the Sun transits our natal 11th house. You can also work with the wish process to release negative patterns from this lifetime and from past lives too.

There are many ways of working with the lunar cycle for manifestation. In this article I have shared with you my personal experience and recommendations for a quick, easy and very effective process for working with the New Moon that has worked quite well for the many clients, students and friends I have turned on to this work. I hope you find it helpful and encourage you to share your stories and experiences on your own or in my classes by sending them to me at editor@psychictimes.com.

For January, I will share my adventures, experiences and what I learn during my visit to the Mayan Temple of Tulum during my upcoming excursion from Cozumel, Mexico. I send you my very best wishes for a wonderful holiday season and hope that you manifest all that you desire in the New Year.

I invite your feedback and input on this Eye-Opener column, please share your ideas or requests on what other subjects you would like to know more about or see covered here. Please respond to editor@psychictimes.com, I really do want your ideas for future articles and hope to hear from you.

Blessings,

Selene
 

It is our pleasure this month to present an updated and in-depth interview with Chayya. Please refer to her excellent interview from May 2006 for further information, in this article we will catch up with her and what she is doing currently. This interesting and busy lady has lots of irons in the fire and is happy to share this update with us along with some very enlightening information to assist you with connecting with your own guides.

Selene: Hello Chayya, it’s so good to connect with you again. I know our readers will love catching up with you and want to hear all about your adventures. It was so great to finally meet you in person on our cruise! So tell me are you ready to go again?

Chayya:: I am definitely ready to go again, though I must admit I can do without the eye patch this time round! We met such wonderful people on the cruise and the friendly atmosphere was nothing you could explain, it was just awesome energy and the weather was perfect. It was great to finally meet a lot of the people I have had the pleasure of knowing and talking to the last few years.

Selene: Yes, I am so glad you enjoyed it. Being in the warm Sun when it is cold at home is very soothing to the soul. Tell me what you most enjoyed about Psychic Cruise 2008.

Chayya:: Oh my, well I think that would have to be the people we met, the crew was fantastic always friendly and helpful. It was like a different world where there are no worries and that is priceless.

Selene: I sure got a lot out of your workshop on channeling and connecting with your guides. How did you first discover your abilities as a medium and channel?

Chayya:: I was actually about 8 years old when I first started to notice the different signs, but being raised a strict Catholic it was nothing I could ever talk about. When I became a teenager I began to dabble a bit in tarot cards, holding onto things seemed to give me vibrations and images. I took this and ran with it, honing in on the images and energy finding out what the symbols were and doing readings in that way. These methods turned out well for me and the more I read in that manner the easier it was. My guides come to me in many strange ways as anyone in the psychic world knows. Sometimes they sing for me a silly tune and when I mention it to the person I am reading it gives us both instant verification that we are connected, as that song has meaning for them in one way or another. My guides may show me people I know that parallel what the person I am reading is going through which gives me an idea of the situation and the direction I need to look for answers. When channeling I ask for a name and with that I get numbers, images or at times sights or smells, these are verifications of what the person that has passed is trying to convey to us to verify that they are the correct person. They may give me a name, an age or a date that is important to the person asking. Somewhat similar to what “John Edwards” in “Crossing Over” does.

Actually I amazed myself on the cruise at the seminar, being in a room full of people I truly did not feel I could reach out into the audience and get messages for anyone but I did, and it was amazing. It gives me such a feeling of helping someone to be able to give them some peace with those that they have lost.

Selene: What would you recommend to people who want to learn more about Mediumship? Any particular ways you suggest for someone to go about studying this safely and remaining protected?

Chayya:: My first and foremost suggestion is educate, educate educate. Did I mention educate?? LOL The most important thing to learn is that knowledge is the key to anything. Reading books by John Edwards, he is an excellent medium and writes so that it is easy for us to understand. Connecting to your guides is a way to get in touch with your own psychic abilities, as well as allowing you to understand the symbolisms and feelings you need to recognize in order to channel and do so safely. Anytime you are giving out your energy to another you need to be reciprocated for that by receiving something in return such as a simple hug or words of gratitude so you can replace the energy you have given out. You need to watch the balance within yourself. I do a guided meditation that will help you to meet your guides, give you a place to go to talk with them, to feel safe and protected, and a place you can call your own to go back to and reconnect with your guides. I do not feel that those we lose in this lifetime are our guides in this lifetime; it is too soon for that turn around to happen. Our guides follow us from past lives from one to the next carrying with them the messages and accomplishments we need to learn in order to move forward in our lives. Learning to listen and understand and follow them will give us the answers to life we are all looking for.

Selene: When you do a demonstration of Mediumship for a group such as you did for us on the cruise, where does this information come from? It was amazing that what you shared with us actually pertained to a couple of people in the audience. Can you explain a bit about how that would happen and resonate with more than one person or situation?

Chayya:: Well, a few different ways, I normally ask for a name and with that name in mind I see numbers, I hear names, I may see images that connect to the person that has crossed or at times a smell comes to me. For instance say someone gives me the name Bill, I say ok the number 23 comes to mind this could be an age or a date, Feb or March, and I feel a sudden shortness of breath. Say it was Mary who has asked me for this connection. I tell Mary this is what I am getting and also an image of a rose petal. Mary tells me that Bill was 32 when he passed in Feb. from an accident in which he was unable to breathe. She also verifies that he had bought her a gold rose petal charm for a necklace the week before as it was their anniversary. This tells me that this is definitely Bill as he has verified this by the symbols he gave me. As far as the cruise seminar, the one person who had the name as well as the other images that fit in perfectly to her loved one was the one intended to get that message. The name did relate to others but not enough to make it a verification for them. So in a group of people a name may connect to several but the information that follows will single it down to one person. I tell everyone if it doesn’t fit don’t try to make it.

Selene: You lead us in a great meditation during your workshop to make contact with our guides. I heard people raving about their experiences. Would you like to share some of that meditation here or offer some expert advice on how our readers can deepen their connection with their guides?

Chayya:: Strengthening your mind’s eye and believing in what you hear feel smell or see is the key issue here, and trusting what comes to you without question.

Close your eyes and clear your mind. Ahead of you to the left you will see a hallway that has a bright yellow door at the end of it, that door is your goal. Walk down that hallway, on each side of you notice that there are doors, some are open, some closed. The open doors I want you to go into and look around take stock of all that is there as these are issues that you have been unable to conquer or deal with, take these things with you on our journey. As you near that door stop and remove your shoes and socks, as you reach for the door notice the warmth coming from this door, as you turn the handle and open the door remember the sun is going to be very bright. Stepping inside I want you to look to the highest tree in front of you. As you slowly look down to the ground you will see an animal, this is your animal guide that will lead you on the beginning of this journey. Introduce yourself and thank them for meeting you here to take you on this journey. Follow your animal guide towards the opening of the woods you see off to the right. Notice the feel of the fresh morning dew on the grass beneath your bare feet. The smell of fresh air, notice the animals as they frolic through the woods you are walking through. A family of bears, a mama and baby cubs play seeming unthreatened by your presence, all is at peace here. Take in all the sights and sounds as you walk through towards the light at the other end of the forest. When you reach the clearing and look across you see a field of wildflowers fresh green grass and a bit in the distance you will see a log cabin. Head towards this cabin, as you reach the stairs your animal guide will retreat this is as far as they will go they will be waiting to return you when you are through. Walk up the stairs and enter the cabin. Take in all the sights, sounds and smells around you. Walking inside notice the home feeling you get here as this is a cabin stocked for your comfort. Look to the left you will see a comfortable chair and a few others as well. The number of chairs you see will be the same as the number of guides you will be meeting. As you look off to your right this is where your guides will come in. As you see them invite them over to visit with you. Introduce your selves and ask any questions you feel will acquaint you with them. When you are finished thank them for sharing and ask them if you can return to talk to them. The answer is of course, yes. Do this with all the guides you expect to see. When you are finished again take in all that there is here to see and head towards the door and down the stairs. Notice your spirit guide animal is there waiting for you to take you back the way you came. The feeling of fulfillment is wonderful, even if you do not meet your guides you have opened the door for them to come through and they will do that. As you approach the door leading to the hallway home thank your animal guide and let them know you will return. Enter the door and replace your shoes and socks. Notice as you walk the hallway the doors that were open are mostly closed. This signifies that you have accepted some of your problems and moving towards resolving them. Return to your chair and stretch. This is a journey you can take at anytime. This is your place to go and even if you need to just relax go and enjoy as this is your place. Use it also as a way to get closer to your guides.

Selene: Thank you so much for sharing that meditation with us. I really enjoyed it at your seminar and am so glad to have the transcript to work with in the future. Along with the different work you do and being self employed as a professional psychic and entrepreneur, I understand you are currently attending college too. What are you studying and what are your educational goals?

Chayya:: I am taking Medical Administration going for an Associate’s degree so that eventually I will be able to work from home, also to utilize the degree of medical terminology I already have attained.

Selene: How do you keep up with the work load in college and with your family and all of your business endeavors?

Chayya:: Some days it is not that easy I take on a bit to much at times, but I am not one for sleeping a lot and I like to keep busy if I am standing still you know something is wrong!

Selene: You also work as a caregiver, what do you like most about that field? It sounds like this also keeps you quite busy. How do your psychic abilities help you with taking care of people?

Chayya:: I love people, all ages, and helping people. The thing I like the most is hearing the stories about these people’s lives so different than ours. They had none of the modern conveniences yet seemed to be very happy and most grew wealthy to pass on that wealth and knowledge to their children. They are responsible for us being here and they are just amazing. It is like working with a bunch of children only they have bigger attitudes and stubbornness. The feeling of being appreciated and the feeling of knowing I have made even the slightest difference in one of their lives makes my day worthwhile.

Selene: With so many interests and responsibilities, how do you keep up with all that you do?

Chayya:: I keep a time journal but I must admit my family does suffer at times. I am not home much but do try to spend quality time with them. I walk in the door and grab my granddaughter first thing!!!!!

Selene: So how is your family doing? Tell us all about your sweet Granddaughter too. I bet you adore having her in your life! Even though she is still so little do you see any indications of her psychic abilities?

Chayya:: Oh my, you hit my favorite subject!!!! She is gorgeous but of course I am biased. She has the most beautiful big blue eyes and they just take in everything around her. I have to say that the eyes do seem to indicate psychic ability by the way she takes things in and the energy I feel from her. I will of course encourage her to follow it. My youngest son that was in an accident and a coma for 25 days has shown a lot of psychic ability since his accident.

Feraion  :::   Provides us with a light-hearted monthly column in an effort to get us to smile, which we all need to do more of. Feraion lives in Australia where his day job is an accounting university professor. He was originally from England where he learned Qabalah from students of Dion Fortune herself, where he was the Radio Medway astrologer for a couple of years, where he edited the Astrological Association’s magazine Transit for a bit longer, and where he was warden of a qabalistic SDG for over a decade. He has lived in China and Singapore for over 15 years and is now in his third year with Psychic Times.

Election time in the USA is a time of hope for a better tomorrow and fear of a worse night before. Hope is as vital to earthly survival as air and water are. Without hope we lose the will to live and cannot see the point in struggling on. After the Holocaust the State of Israel was established with a national anthem the Hatikvah which means The Hope. Monty Python’s Life of Brian movie famously ends with the song “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.” Even the pessimistic philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre admitted “hope begins on the other side of despair” which means hope seeks us out even after we think we’ve lost it. Easy to agree that hope is a very good thing. Like all good things, people ask two questions

1. All good things come to an end – do they in this case?
   
   
2. Can you have too much of a good thing and how do you know before it’s late?

Hope is like a drink. It ends when you’ve drunk it. So elections are full of hope of great redemptions, improvements and new beginnings but there is always a reaction against the successful candidate as some hopes were too high to be realistic. But that is not the end of hope. Only the end of hope for that great thing from one particular individual. We soon get hope again about something else from someone else. So specific hopes end but hope in general does not.

We have seen in the last year and a half what happens when hope is mixed with greed. The wall street crash following the credit crunch shows me we do not teach enough history in our schools, because every generation repeats the mistakes of the last one in expecting booms to go on forever, in hoping there’ll always be a buyer for what they’re hoping to sell at an all time high price and that they can get away with taking bigger risks than anyone ever got away with before and get handsomely paid for doing so. These burst bubbles happen more than once every generation. We had the junk bond bubble burst in 1988 and the dot com bubble burst in 2000, so our generation seems to be especially good at ignoring the clear lessons of history in general and stock market history in particular. So I would say that when hope mixes with greed, then we have too much of a good thing.

There is a zone of realism which like the rings around Saturn should set a boundary on hope so it does not decline into recklessness or dangerous illusion. What are these realism rings and how can we set them up? I think the first test is purity. If your hope is mixed with greed, gluttony, lust, pride, ambition, it might well be inflated. If it’s mixed with love or caring, it might also have an undercurrent of fear which makes the hope more fragile and volatile. So there is a certain detachment needed for hope to do its best work in motivating fortitude and persistence.

The second test is history. If you do what’s always been done, then you’ll get what’s always been got. That’s what the stock market ‘masters of the universe’ keep forgetting. Of course if you don’t know any history, you’re in serious danger of repeating it. On a personal level, know the history of the person for whom you nourish the hope. Know their horoscope. Does it point to things to avoid, to high risk areas, to areas where a mischievous Mercury or nebulous Neptune may have to be quarantined? What can they do and how can they use their natural talents to advance their cause? That will increase the visibility of the realism rings.

Thirdly, ask the universe to help. Hope higher powers are listening and will increase the odds of getting there.

Dear Chayya,

I 've been doing lots of growth work all my life-meditation, Reiki, reflexology, rebirthing, I love this world but find it hard to merge it with my regular day job world where I have little money and feel I never have enough to provide what id like for my kids. I feel a failure on that level and a huge amount of distress, there is a big conflict for me with feeling that one hand a simple life is enough but on the other hand I haven 't provided for example a college fund for my son. Any insights?

Thank you

Meghan

Dear Meghan,

What the guides are giving me here is the saying that all will work out. It seems a spiritual life is where you are comfortable and feel free there are no expectations and in that your guides are telling you to trust in them and all will work out. Though you do not have a monetary college fund set up for your son your guides will be sure that he has what he needs when the time comes. You need to follow through where you feel good and cleansed and trust that the universe will provide for you. Trusting is the hardest thing to do but once you do your guides will take all these worries off your shoulders and provide all that you and your family need.

Light and love to you,

Chayya
 

Each month the lovely and most talented Salome imparts some Shamanic wisdom and teachings upon us and shares some interesting personal tidbits. Salome was a reader on Psychic Web for many years and can now be found on "Psychic Access" where she is one of the top readers. We hope you enjoy Shaman's Corner.

A big thank you to both Doug and Selene for giving me the opportunity to contribute as a regular writer for the Psychic Times Newsletter. The information you read here every month will be exclusive to this newsletter. I have my reasons for this, and they are a bit selfish Doing this column every month is akin to opening portal(s) that will allow me to teach thousands. This is exactly what I want to be able to do. Perfect Venue, this Newsletter.

Have you always wanted to know about SOUL LOSS? What is that anyway? SOUL LOSS. It sounds sort of final doesn't it? But that is just the deal or trick, as my mama called them. It's just the opposite. You cannot totally lose your soul. Shocking isn't it? SOUL LOSS! Scary just to read or hear those two words. Nope, you cannot completely lose your soul. It may take a mountain of time to gather up the pieces into a workable being once again though, so do be careful. Yes, I'm serious. Also remember to take the right things seriously. If it's your own 'stuff' that is gunking the works, get rid of it. How? Ask your guides.

What about your GUIDES? At Shaman's Corner, my guides and I will teach you some specifics on how to achieve a working relationship with yours.

I will teach you how to grasp and grock the exact nature(s) of the Web of Wyrdd. Do look for meaning and know it exists in the Web of Wyrdd, but then I will ask you to lay down the craziness of it all, and participate in the real world once again! Yes, in shamanism everything is an illusion, or a perception. This is true, but there is also the concensus reality we humans deal with every day. That is the real world, and until we can perform the steps to shift consciousness en masse efficiently and quickly; we do need to spend a good share of our time where things feel the most physically real. If you've never heard of the Web of Wyrdd or Wryd; take some time and look it up! Lots of good info about it on the net on the net.

Different types of energy and it's uses will be discussed. You'll enjoy learning about entities, tomb raiders, vamps and the real Wolf People. The Bear People, Deer People we shall delve into, also the Bird Tribes. Very Important, The Bird Tribes. Remember the Olympics in China this last summer 2008? The Chinese turned on the special lighting effects around the "Bird's Nest" Stadium... WELL AFTER DARK. The birds rose and flew round and up! Yes, the Bird Tribes are returning. We will learn about them and the gifts to humanity and all life they bring upon their return.

What about the legends of the Earth? We will go into why... and when... and what for... Earth that is. We can't forget the UFO's either! Salome has seen more than a few, so I'll have lots to talk about. A few weeks ago, the British Government supposedly declassified their Top Secret UFO Files and are now acknowledging that UFO's exist and they have records of visits and pictures! Finally a lot of information will clear up. Think of how much energy is going to be freed up not wondering any longer?!!! I lay odds the UFO community turns into a set up where they mix Native American and UFO material. We then have another science to study on Earth. What once was sacred knowledge shared with few, will open wide up. The native people share their UFO secrets to the benefit of all. My guides remind me that the Native American Elders have known this information all along. It has deep roots to the legends and stories of the "Star People", from whence we originally came.

Not many people cross my path who know, without doubt, what type of Power/Spirit Animal medicine they carry. Conversely, most people always have a sense or feeling they know. They just have doubts. This is very powerful stuff, and likely one of the first shamanic subjects I'll cover in this column. You'll find this teaching one of the biggies in Shamanism.

Sharing knowledge with as many as possible because it's needed more than ever right now, is wise, prudent and the compassionate solution. Crises have broken out all over the world and humans are very frightened. It is vital these shamanic secrets and teachings be shared quickly. Our universe dreamt us long ago, and it is also dreaming us into the future as well. The teachings you read here will allow you to participate with our universe in creating our world(s). When you view this shamanically, you will see there are forces here that do show definite signs of consciousness, but not total. Here you will learn how to participate in your areas of interest and if your intent is good for the whole, then you will see your efforts multiplied by others. Things will move.

We were born with this intelligence long ago. Although the flower sniffers will tell you all is equal up and down the food chain, I digress. I'm pretty sure I'd rather be saved by a world leader with good/true intent than an amoeba. Which, by the way, yes, there will be plenty of amoebas removed from positions of power throughout the world this next few years. Should prove interesting and a definite shamanic mind boggler. I have no issue with real amoebas, the fake ones I think should ride the barge down the River Styx!

I sincerely hope the future looks a bit more plausible and brighter after you read Shaman's Corner each month, and that it helps you along your life's path. Let me give warning though... I was a weird kid. It will always be interesting, and thought provoking reading... as intended. If my guides and I can shift your ways of perception, and have you enjoy the process we will have succeeded in our goal.

See you next month at Shaman's Corner.

Salome

Each month, we randomly select, from among the e-mails received from you, one person to be featured in our prayer circle. All we need from you is a paragraph or two about the person--and yes it can be yourself--along with his/her name, age and place of residence. Use the "Submit Request" link above. Oh, and don't think that only illnesses are worthy of prayers. It can be a strong desire, a job you're anxiously hoping for, or anything that keeps you up nights wishing on the stars. You'll be amazed just how potent the power of prayer really is.

For April Graham, Atlanta Georgia

My prayer request is for myself, April Graham. I am a thirty-five year female, born 02/06/73, from Miami, Florida that is currently residing in Atlanta, Georgia. I need your supportive prayers regarding my present living conditions and employment situation. I am involved in a very unhealthy relationship with a 50 year old male who abuses drugs/alcohol and is emotionally abusive towards me. My current place of employment is a true dead-end and is a very negative environment. I would like to return to Miami, Florid and obtain a good job this fall. I really need some spiritual guidance and hope. Your prayers would be so greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much and May you be so blessed in return.
