			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My friend Heather at <a href="http://miriel.org/">Work In Progress</a> had taken this quiz this morning and inspired me to take it myself. </p>

<blockquote><p>
You scored highest in Channeling.</p>
<p>One who communicates with spirits is called a channeler or medium. Channelling is the ability to communicate with those who once lived or with spirit who have never taken a human form such as angelic beings. Channeling is the communication that takes place between a spirit and a living human. There are several forms of spirit communication and a channeler does not have to be in a trance state to receive messages. However, with regard to the quality of channelled information it is reliant on the channeler rather than the spirit. This is because the information has to be passed in an energy form for interpretation from the channeler. If the channeler has not learnt the skill adequately the information can seem vague and jumbled.</p>
<p>Channeling can be a learned skill. As you learn though, it is important to remember that everyone has a different experience of what it is like to channel. Your style will depend on your spirit guide and your particular energy level, focus, and clarity. Before consciously channelling it is a good idea to learn the skills of quietening the mind. This is to ensure the quality of information you receive. Many people however, experience &#8216;unconscious&#8217; channelling a random act of communication with a loved one who has passed over. This means a person has the ability to successfully channel but has not yet developed it.</p>
<p>Your next highest score was for Precognition.</p>
<p>While clairvoyance and telepathy have to do with perceiving events across distance precognition focuses on the ability to &#8217;see&#8217; events across time. Specifically future events. Precognition is often for a lot of people totally unexpected and not asked for. It is the ability to see the future. It is usually experienced in a variety of ways among the most common are through feelings, brief inner glimpses, dreams and the third eye (the minds eye). For some, especially if not understood, this ability can be disconcerting until the gift is properly managed. This can be done through reading, experiencing and understanding psychic ability.
</p></blockquote>
<p>I think I&#8217;m going to be browsing around the site a little bit once I finish editing my second article for <a href="http://tarotworldmag.com/">Tarot World Magazine</a>. It&#8217;s been a bit of a slow start yesterday and today because the munchkin is sick with the croup, but he should hopefully be over it by the weekend.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Part of the regimen that I&#8217;m starting to help improve everything for me health-wise is to exercise, even if I&#8217;m not using  <a href="http://www.nordictrack.com/">exercise equipment</a>. I mean, I had access to a multi-thousand dollar gymnasium when we were at the apartment complex and I used it two maybe three times at the most. I got more fun out of using DDR with the playstation 2 and that I could use without even leaving the house. </p>
<p>You can find ways to exercise no matter what you&#8217;re doing, and being physically fit helps you feel better which in turn helps your outlook and can lead to greater spiritual discoveries, which is what I&#8217;m going for. I can run around the yard with my son experiencing our natural environment, showing him different nooks and crannies to explore and making up stories about our adventures to the land of sand and down the nature trail. All which help us both out. It gets him outside and burns off his energy, helps me to exercise, and we both exercise our imaginations as well, and who knows one of these days we may find some nature spirits, once they&#8217;re sure that we&#8217;re not invaders and are really friendly!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People will ask at times how I &#8220;see&#8221; things how my input comes in, so I thought I would talk a little about that. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s not really specific at all, my impressions, that&#8217;s why I use the tarot cards, they can be a good trigger point for me and a good way to hone things in, by asking and seeing which symbols and cards come up to answer. </p>
<p>I have had a few clear impressions in my life, but in some ways they are still interpretable. Before 9/11 I kept having feelings of being crushed and buried and sometimes dreams of being under a mountain of skulls. I&#8217;m not sure if that&#8217;s entirely 9/11 related. I know that a lot of people within esoteric communities had nightmares before 9/11 but none of us had any grasp of what it meant at all. Every once in a while I will get this &#8220;Something! Something bad!!!&#8221; urgent feeling that later turns out to be someone I know has lost someone close to them, that happened also the day before Columbia blew up. </p>
<p>One of the clearest dreams I remember happened two weeks before my grandfather in England died. I was dreaming of my college graduation which was to happen the following December. My grandfather and my grandmother were there. A big event they were planning as it involved coming from England to the United States, but when I went up to talk to him after I graduated he shook his head sadly and turned and waved and disappeared. I woke up crying and told my now ex that I just killed my grandfather he had a heart attack.<br />
Two weeks later we were out at a used book store and saw a collection of the works of Charles Dickens and when I tried to explain to my ex that my grandfather owned that collection my mouth stuck on the verb and kept trying to put it in the past tense. A half hour later we were at home and there was a message on the machine from my mother to call because she had some news. When I spoke to her she told me that my grandfather had died that morning while doing the dishes. They figured it was an issue with his heart. </p>
<p>A few years later my grandmother had a stroke but survived. She went into assisted living and my mother knowing about the dream I had to do with her father asked what my impressions were about my grandmother. I told her I wasn&#8217;t getting anything really at all, but if I pushed I kept hearing October. That October came around and my grandmother was still with us. She didn&#8217;t die until last year. In October. My mother goes, &#8220;Well, you were pushing it and you did just say &#8216;October&#8217; not which one.&#8221; </p>
<p>There have been several times when I do get some images while talking to people about readings. I&#8217;ve done readings before and just had a random impression and I&#8217;m teaching myself to listen to those and relay them to the person I&#8217;m reading for. Someone was looking for a new apartment and it was insistent to me that they check the floors. She said that when they did look at the floors of the two places they were looking at one they were very dirty and cracked and old, and the other they were patterned and green, her favorite color. </p>
<p>Another time I had done a reading for someone about a prospect coming to them romantically. The card I drew was the inverted King of Cups. I said, I think this means they&#8217;re either blonde and not a teacher, or are a teacher and not blonde, and then I got an impression of a man with short brown hair and glasses working away at a computer. He stopped and pinched his nose, after taking the glasses off and massaged his forehead before going back to work. They are now married to this man who when they met was a teacher, and not blonde, wears glasses. It comes to me now too that they did first meet online, and he now works with computers more than teaching. </p>
<p>Listening to the little messages is just as important as dealing with the cards themselves.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was asked this question by Jacqui, who appears to not have a blog. </p>
<blockquote><p>I was looking to buy an antique Hall bench with a mirror attached.  When I went to the persons house to photograph it, I inspected it very carefully.  The mirror was in good condition and looked to be original to the piece. It had heavy boards backing it.  When I went home to look at the pictures on my digital camera, the mirror very clearly showed a circle with what looked like a backwards &#8220;B&#8221; in it.  It was a very large image and seemed to almost be backlit.  Every photo of the mirror shows a circle on it that is not present when viewing it physically. What do you make of this?</p></blockquote>
<p>There are quite a few recorded incidents of <a href="http://www.ghostresearch.org/ghostpics/">ghostly images in photographs</a> sometimes there is a logical explanation, dust on the film, light reflecting off something not immediately visible, but in other cases orbs, or even people have been captured on film. </p>
<p>Why an image such as the one you describe shows up&#8230;I couldn&#8217;t say. If it had happened once I might think that it was some kind of discrepancy, but it seems as though it could be an imprint of some sort. </p>
<p>I believe that spiritual energy can leave an imprint on things especially if it was something that a person who died cared for a lot.</p>
