						<title>Life and Living - 2012</title>

						<description><![CDATA[<p>The year 2012 is a shared year, ruled by Papa Ogun (the force of fire, faith and strength) and Papa Agwe (the force of light and direction). The message for the year 2012 gives a blueprint for using the strength of Ogun and the sails of Agwe, while also bringing knowledge about critical anchor months. The Loa Baron Criminel, who came in possession on Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol during the Ghede Ceremony at LePeristyle Haitian Sanctuary on the night of November 12, 2011, gave the message for the upcoming New Year, 2012.</p>
<p>This message speaks about life and living, the power of drama and how to sail through 2012 in tranquility. The predictions for 2012 begin with a reference to the guidance given for the year 2011 and a review of the powers that dominated the year 2011. The power of a year flows from the power of prior years. It is important to be aware of the powers of the past in order to understand the powers of a year that has not yet been lived. The guidance for 2011 was to “be a spade for yourself,” meaning to make a clear, unemotional assessment of your character and behavior on an on-going basis. The powers ruling 2011 (being a spade, surety and unsurety) are essential preparation for the year 2012 and must be appeased in order for the guidance given for the year 2012 to be effective. </p>
<p>The message for the year 2012 brings a new perspective for living in the coming year. It presents a blueprint for action and understanding. It is a guide to show you the best time for financial investments, entrepreneurial thrusts, love, family, and health. The reading of the year tells you what to avoid and how to take advantage of the best opportunities for the year 2012. </p>
<p>The divine force spoke of life and living, explaining the relationship between the wealth of life and the wealth of the land. You are living in life, which is from the wealth of the land. The wealth of the land spreads into the wealth of life. Life has a season and the deeds done during that season determine the remembrance of that life.</p>
<p>Drama is a monster. It is a power as old as the world. Everyone understands it. What people do not realize is that, once invoked, drama cannot be controlled. It destroys. Drama must be avoided in 2012 because this is a year in which emotions will run high. In order to have tranquility you must avoid drama. </p>
<p>The Loa said that the year belongs to two forces: Papa Ogun and Papa Agwe. Some will only see Papa Ogu present in the year because they see the earthquakes, fires and all the other devastations that will come out of the heat of the Petro. On the other hand, the people who can see these two powers will, as a result, do well in business. The year 2012 will provide opportunities for gain in the midst of inflation and economic crises. Those who only see Papa Agwe will think of tornadoes, gale force winds, floods, possible tsunamis and things coming out of the sea that can bring much devastation, destruction and death. On the other hand, those who are seeing Agwe present in the year, but not necessarily focused on the destruction and devastation, could see the good fortune that comes on the wind when things are blown their way. Following the guidance of the spiritual force by changing the way you do business and handle your fortunes will bring enormous benefits in 2012.</p>

How do reading card work for you<br />
By Orna Ben-Shoshan</p>
<p>Most reading cards contain artwork and codes that signify numerous probabilities for events and situations. You can compare a reading card to an icon that leads you to relevant knowledge when drawn out of the deck.</p>
<p>Want to know what is about to happen next? How will a romantic relationship develop? How your career will evolve? Or will a new venture is worth the effort?<br />
For this purpose, many types of divination tools were created, including reading cards. The most popular Tarot Cards are in vast use all over the world.<br />
Specific knowledge that is unreachable through mental effort alone is made accessible to us by using reading cards, and we only have to pick the right kind of cards and the appropriate spread.</p>
<p>Do reading cards really work?<br />
Will they actually reveal the right likelihoods to us?<br />
This challenging question can be answered with an allegory:<br />
“Does the teacher in class really function as a source for knowledge? Will he/she really teach us anything?<br />
Well – it depends.<br />
If you listen carefully in class and connect with the information the teacher delivers, you may probably learn something. When talking about reading cards – If you listen to yourself carefully, and connect with the knowledge they deliver, you may very well find answers to your questions.<br />
If fact – it is not the teacher, nor the cards that will teach you anything new: they simply did not invent the knowledge. Actually, they are merely a channel/medium that transfers it.<br />
Most reading cards contain artwork and codes that represent numerous probabilities to events and situations. Each card has its own characteristics and tells us a distinctive story. You can compare a reading card to an icon that points at a program and leads you to relevant knowledge when drawn out of the deck.</p>
<p>The Largest pool of knowledge:<br />
According to metaphysical theories everything happens simultaneously, all the time. All the possible causes, circumstances, choices and effects were already created. The information that contains all possible events already exists in the endless reservoir of cosmic knowledge. All we need to do is move forward or backward on the scale of time in order to reveal it to our consciousness.<br />
Being human beings, we are bound into physical, mental and emotional bodies (this is the reason that we came here to begin with – to experience life in the material plane). Our bodies act as shells that limit our wider vision of the universe. From this reason, it is difficult for most of us to access most of the knowledge that is stored in the eternal cosmic intelligence. </p>
<p>Accessing Knowledge:<br />
In every day survival mode, we can only be aware of a tiny fracture of all the possible probabilities that exist. Most of us need a channel or a transmission tool through which we can access the knowledge we need.<br />
There are some gifted people among us that managed to develop their super natural clairvoyant abilities through training and experience. Their training and natural talent helped them remove most of the physical limitations, so they can spontaneously connect with the source of wisdom. In fact, each one of us has the potential do so, but many of us do not choose to develop it.</p>
<p>Still, the whole subject of card reading may seem esoteric to most people:<br />
How, by drawing a “random” card from a deck can we reach the knowledge we need?<br />
In order to obtain a reasonable answer, we first have to adopt the theory that there is nothing casual or accidental in the universe. When asking an essential question and shuffling a deck of cards, a resonance is created between our energy field and the cards’ vibrations. The energetic field created around the question we contemplate about has its own unique qualities.  As mentioned before, each card carries images and symbols that carry a typical energetic frequency. Since similars attract, the hand that draws the card will be intuitively attracted to the “right” card that will lead us to the most relevant answer to a question.<br />
To most of us, the process looks random, while in fact, the hand is drawn to a certain card energetically, or as many expert card readers would testify, the right card simply falls into their hand.</p>
<p>Irrelevant Knowledge:<br />
The process described here is possible as long as we manage to focus on our question effectively.  When we turn to the cards for answers and do it absent-mindedly, we shall get a concurrent result: irrelevant and confusing answers from the cards.<br />
We have to take into consideration that sometimes, we are not supposed to get an answer at all, and there are many reasons to it: processes are in the midst of their creation, and the subject is not ripe yet, lack of spiritual or emotional readiness to contain or understand the answer, and so on.<br />
In such incidents you will receive confusing answers from the cards, or information that is disconnected from the question. Sometimes, you will get an answer to an underlying concern that you did not ask about, but affected your energy field significantly.</p>
<p>Kabbalistic Divination Cards:<br />
Among hundreds of divination cards offered through the metaphysical marketplace today, it is important to distinguish the Kabbalistic cards because of their outstanding attributes: The Kabbalistic codes/symbols used on the cards carry amplified spiritual vibrations. Many of these cards contain the Hebrew alphabet.<br />
Anyone who ever experienced the insights of Kabbalah studies, knows that the Hebrew alphabet constitutes the cosmic DNA, and each letter carries a typical cosmic frequency. The world was created by endless combinations of Hebrew letters, as demonstrated in the Kabbalistic book of Yetzirah (creation).<br />
Divination cards that contain the Hebrew letters open the passages to the eternal cosmic pool of knowledge by elevating the energetic vibration of the person who reads them. This way, the answer/relevant knowledge is reflected back to reader most accurately.</p>
<p>When you consider consulting with any type of reading cards, it is important to remember that your subconscious mind already has all the knowledge you will ever need in order to solve your problems. The wealth of information we carry in our minds is an integral part of the eternal cosmic intelligence. Divination cards are a tool through which we can connect with our internal source of wisdom.</p>
<p>About the Author:<br />
Orna Ben-Shoshan, an inventive Israeli artist, creates visionary art on metaphysical topics. Her artwork invites the viewer to peek into parallel realms of existence.<br />
Being a lifetime student of esoteric philosophies and the Kabbalah, Orna created the outstanding “72 Names Cards” that combine her artwork with the Kabbalistic letter combinations taken from the “72 Names of God”.<br />

						<title>How to Have a Healthy, Sexy, Positive, &amp; Thriving Relationship</title>
						<link>http://www.inwardoasis.com</link>
						<dc:creator>Janelle Alex PhD</dc:creator>
						<pubDate>Wed, 21 Dec 2011 13:50:05 +0000</pubDate>
						<description><![CDATA[<p>Life is full of changes.  We move through our lives with hopes and desires.  Yet, we often find ourselves unhappy, stressed and with a sense of feeling hopeless and undesirable.  Wouldn’t it be an amazing and a wondrous experience to live life feeling healthy and sexy?  Instead of having that, many of us continue to wonder just how we are supposed to maintain positive attitudes and thrive in all of our relationships.  We may not even be aware that positive thoughts are a golden key to thriving – physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, sexually, and even financially.</p>
<p>Even when we are aware, this beautiful space that we encounter, occasionally, seems to evaporate as old patterns begin to reinvade our blissful state.  Have you had this happen?  You are filled with joy and excitement about life and about your partner.  Then, suddenly the discord, the monotony, the “ho hum”, the trials and tribulations start showing up.  You feel that just once you would really like to be in a relationship that fills you up instead of tearing you down.  You want to just enjoy the relationship instead of having to work so hard to keep it strong and healthy.  </p>
<p>This is understandable, but life is not a bowl of cherries.  It is about love, but it is about growth – personal growth, spiritual growth.  We cannot grow and expand if we do not experience any “growing pains.”  Only we can judge when the pain is too much.  No one else can tell us when it is time to walk away.  No one else can tell us when we must stay either.  At the same time, there are a number of things we can change.  Now is this about changing your partner?  No!  We cannot change others unless they want to change, but we can change ourselves.  When we do this we will uncover the joy and happiness within ourselves and not rely on anyone else to create this for us.  Our change will affect us individually and it will also have a tremendous impact on those around us.  </p>
<p>So, what are some key things you can do to change or do differently that will help you develop and then stay in a healthy, positive, sexy and thriving relationship?</p>
<p>1.	Have love and compassion for YOU!   Imagine a time in your life when you were a child and experienced something that upset you.  Now, imagine your adult self wrapping your arms around your child self.  In your imagination, offer gentleness, an outpouring of love, and have deep compassion for your child self.  Tell this part of you that everything is going to be all right – that she is loved.  When you learn to do this for your inner child you can shift it and offer this same love and compassion for yourself as an adult today.  This is not about being selfish.  This is about loving and respecting yourself.  The more you can love and have compassion for yourself, the more you will be able to do so for others.<br />
2.	Be present with your partner and others.  When you are with your partner really be with him/her.  Pay real attention to what he/she has to say.  Practice deep listening.  Do not interrupt, change the subject or avoid conversation.  Hear what he/she has to say.  Put away the cell phone, turn off the television, shut off your computer and focus your attention on those around you.  Show your partner and others that they are truly important to you.<br />
3.	Change the words you use.  Pay close attention to the words you choose to use.  Do you use negative words?  Do you call yourself or others “stupid” or “fat” or even “foolish?  These are hurtful words to others and ourselves.  Even when we use them in a joking tone, they carry negative energy.  The energy we send out is what we are going to get in return.  Do you want more stupid, fat, and foolish people around you?  You can change your words.  Try saying, “I do not feel as thin as I prefer to be in these clothes,” instead of “These freaking pants are too tight on my fat butt!”<br />
4.	Let go of the need to be right.  This one can be challenging, but it is well worth all of the effort you may need to put into it.  When you are discussing something with your partner or another person and you do not agree with them, what do you typically do?  It is more common than not that we want to correct him/her, say he/she is wrong, and tell this person what we think is right.  But, if you can stop and take some time to simply see it from the other person’s perspective, you may just be amazed at what will happen.  For one thing, you are showing your partner or whoever that you value his/her perspective.  And, it is possible that you might just shift your view a bit.  If you don’t change your mind, that is okay – just be willing to respect and appreciate the differences between you and your partner.<br />
5.	Eat healthier.  This may seem obvious, but sometimes we forget.  Certain foods can make us feel heavy and bloated, or on the opposite end, some foods leave us feeling hungry and unfulfilled.  No one can tell you exactly what we should eat.  Everyone’s bodies are different.  Therefore, you need to find a nutrition coach, a ayurvedic practitioner, or read up on various ways to have a healthier diet.  Changing your diet can have a tremendous impact on your physical and mental health as well as your emotional health.<br />
6.	Exercise regularly.  Yep.  It is true.  We need to be active.  Our bodies are designed to move.  They are not made to sit in front of a computer all day or become couch potatoes.  It is important for all of us to be active in one way or another.  This keeps the body younger, maintains higher metabolism and it keeps the mind younger too.  Going through life in a body that is in shape also helps us feel sexier and more confident.<br />
7.	Connect to your spirituality.  Our busy lives can often get in the way of noticing the beauty all around us.  We trudge to work everyday without sensing or hearing the call of our soul.  Your religious or spiritual beliefs are yours and you should follow what resonates with you.  This is not about changing your beliefs.  This is about paying attention to your Spirit and your Soul.  This can be done in so many ways.  Here are two simple ways 1) Take five minutes a day to just sit quietly with your eyes closed.  Breathe in deeply and then slowly release that breath.  Continue focusing on your breath throughout this break in your day. 2) Listen to your inner voice, your instinct, your gut.  Those little ideas or thoughts that just pop into your head are often from your soul or spirit trying to get a message to you.  Pay attention.<br />
8.	Mix-up your sex life.  Making changes in your sex life with your partner can deepen the bond between the two of you and enhance your emotional as well as your physical intimacy.  Trying new things, learning what each other’s desires are, and honoring one other through physical communication can have a profound impact.  We suggest adding Sexy Challenges and Intimate Adventures: Sacred Ceremonies for Couples to your intimate life.  You can rekindle or enhance your passion with the exciting scenarios shared in Sexy Challenges.  You can also discover the sacredness in your relationship – emotionally, physically, spiritually &#8211; with the beautiful and fun filled exercises, rituals, experiences and ceremonies in Intimate Adventures.</p>

Do you want more stupid, fat, and foolish people around you?  You can change your words.  Try saying, “I do not feel as thin as I prefer to be in these clothes,” instead of “These freaking pants are too tight on my fat butt!”<br />
4.	Let go of the need to be right.  This one can be challenging, but it is well worth all of the effort you may need to put into it.  When you are discussing something with your partner or another person and you do not agree with them, what do you typically do?  It is more common than not that we want to correct him/her, say he/she is wrong, and tell this person what we think is right.  But, if you can stop and take some time to simply see it from the other person’s perspective, you may just be amazed at what will happen.  For one thing, you are showing your partner or whoever that you value his/her perspective.  And, it is possible that you might just shift your view a bit.  If you don’t change your mind, that is okay – just be willing to respect and appreciate the differences between you and your partner.<br />
5.	Eat healthier.  This may seem obvious, but sometimes we forget.  Certain foods can make us feel heavy and bloated, or on the opposite end, some foods leave us feeling hungry and unfulfilled.  No one can tell you exactly what we should eat.  Everyone’s bodies are different.  Therefore, you need to find a nutrition coach, a ayurvedic practitioner, or read up on various ways to have a healthier diet.  Changing your diet can have a tremendous impact on your physical and mental health as well as your emotional health.<br />
6.	Exercise regularly.  Yep.  It is true.  We need to be active.  Our bodies are designed to move.  They are not made to sit in front of a computer all day or become couch potatoes.  It is important for all of us to be active in one way or another.  This keeps the body younger, maintains higher metabolism and it keeps the mind younger too.  Going through life in a body that is in shape also helps us feel sexier and more confident.<br />
7.	Connect to your spirituality.  Our busy lives can often get in the way of noticing the beauty all around us.  We trudge to work everyday without sensing or hearing the call of our soul.  Your religious or spiritual beliefs are yours and you should follow what resonates with you.  This is not about changing your beliefs.  This is about paying attention to your Spirit and your Soul.  This can be done in so many ways.  Here are two simple ways 1) Take five minutes a day to just sit quietly with your eyes closed.  Breathe in deeply and then slowly release that breath.  Continue focusing on your breath throughout this break in your day. 2) Listen to your inner voice, your instinct, your gut.  Those little ideas or thoughts that just pop into your head are often from your soul or spirit trying to get a message to you.  Pay attention.<br />
8.	Mix-up your sex life.  Making changes in your sex life with your partner can deepen the bond between the two of you and enhance your emotional as well as your physical intimacy.  Trying new things, learning what each other’s desires are, and honoring one other through physical communication can have a profound impact.  We suggest adding Sexy Challenges and Intimate Adventures: Sacred Ceremonies for Couples to your intimate life.

						<description><![CDATA[<p>I’ve worked very hard to get to the position that I’ve gotten to so far and realised from the very beginning that it’s not about me, you or anyone else, but the message carried on to help the community expand. With over billions able to access the internet and many others seeking to get on inevitably at some point you’ll reach out to at least a good fraction of these people and make a difference with the information you provide.</p>
<p>Within the occult, and spiritual community expanding there hasn’t been an abundance of information in recordable history available worldwide.  With my network of over 1Million and growing I am willing to share and help promote every article that’s posted on the  Mona Magick.com site  so long as it’s along the lines of the occult, magick, science, medicine, spirituality and wellbeing all of course covering the important aspects of life which I’m sure you can include in a few sub-topics. Life itself is rather short in comparison to the history that makes us who we are today so why not be a part of the legacy. Sure you may have your own website, your newly published book, or your tight nit group of followers but I urge you to understand that the internet is the wonderful wide world of web consisting of an integrated network not meant to be cut of via segmentation as such because there is no growth within such a structure.</p>
<p>So why submit your article? Here’s 10 excellent reasons!<br />
 ■grow your community<br />
 ■link to your site<br />
 ■have your say<br />
 ■spread your word<br />
 ■bring traffic to your site<br />
 ■educate the public<br />
 ■advertise for free<br />
 ■increase your network<br />
 ■be the first to alert<br />
 ■ride the exposure!</p>
<p>My goal is simply explained within Friedrich Nietzsche quote “Many are stubborn in pursuit of the path they have chosen, few in pursuit of the goal” – and the target is to put a little magick or more in everyone’s life! You can get started by just one click! &gt;&gt;</p>
