<b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 OF COINS: </b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This month you will be making some kind
of a decision that will require you to balance the pros and cons of different
options as well as use your intuition.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Any time it is necessary to decide something—whether it is important or
just a day-to-day situation-- we should remember to use both our left and right
brains so that we come to a choice that in our hearts we feel is right for us
at the time.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And then once you have
decided, the best thing to do is to just go with the flow and stop worrying
about the outcome. Don’t take it too seriously and be flexible, because it is
better to just see what happens, without expecting a particular result.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>THE WORLD</b>: In the past few months, or year, perhaps you
have had a lot of ups and downs, challenges, problems, or disappointments, but
also successes and rewards. The message
from this card is to let us know that a lot of the hardships you have endured
are paying off, and now is the time to reap the benefits of what you have learned
from the difficult times. This is a time
to be exuberant and excited, for the bounty of your hard-earned lessons is now
within your grasp. So be prepared to
have fun, enjoy yourself, and see a happy time entering your life where good
things are coming to you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>9 OF COINS</b>: Going along with the energy of the World card
is the 9 of Coins. You will be feeling
satisfied and fulfilled with your life right now. The beautiful energy of success is with you,
so enjoy all that it has to offer. You have worked hard, done the work, faced
the challenges, and now is the time to relax a bit and enjoy what you have
created. You have shown discipline and
self-control, relying on yourself to make things happen. Give yourself a pat on the back for all that
you have accomplished, and revel in the joy that you deserve.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>QUEEN OF WANDS</b>: The Queen of Wands reminds you that you are
very self–confident and assured during this month, so keep moving forward,
letting nothing get in your way. You are
action-oriented and energetic, not willing to just rest on your laurels. Yes, you can enjoy your successes, but this
does not mean that you can just sit back and wait for things to happen. Keep
the momentum moving forward, and feel the warm glow of confidence and optimism that
exudes from you. You know what you want,
and you will go after it with gusto and passion. You are on a roll, and now is the time to
keep moving ahead.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

August is appearing to be! You will have

learning, discovery, challenges, and successes.
Now is the time to have fun and give thanks for all that you have accomplished. Looking back on what has transpired over the
past few months, you may be amazed to see how far you have come. It may have been a hard road at times, but
you have persevered and are now in a really good space. Enjoy the self-confidence and determination
that have gotten you this far, and continue to shine like the star that you
are. You deserve all the good things coming this month, because you have earned
them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>KNIGHT OF
WANDS: </b>If you have been feeling
stagnant or not able to move forward, this month should bring some relief from
that. The Knight of Wands represents a
double-action energy, because there is the Knight who can’t sit still, coupled
with the Wands energy that is constantly on the move. So look at new opportunities that come your
way, or create your own. You will have the initiative and drive to propel yourself
ahead in some way. Perhaps it is only a
small step at first, but as you get into the “swing of things” you will find
yourself becoming more and more action-oriented.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>THE EMPRESS</b>: July also brings the Divine Feminine energy
into play. Recognize your nurturing, kind and loving side while using your
creativity to bring forward and birth ideas that perhaps have been lying
dormant for some time. The fertility of
ideas and a desire to create something, combined with the Knight of Wands, will
make for a wonderful month of abundance in some area of your life. You will have more than enough, and may feel
a pull to be outdoors more. A connection
to the Earth can help bring vitality and love of life to you now.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
<b>THE MAGICIAN</b>: Get ready to bring
into the physical world that which you would like to create. It is as if you have a magic wand and have
the ability to use the Law of Attraction to full advantage, if you so choose.
Once again, the cards are encouraging you to recognize your own power and bring
forth something that in the past may have been out of reach, or even what you
perceived as impossible. Anything can
happen this month, and the Magician encourages you to believe in yourself, set
the intention, and take action to bring into your life something that you have
been thinking about but have not put forth much effort to bring about. You are
strong and powerful, so get started now!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>JUSTICE</b>: Start off the month by realizing the
importance of being fair to yourself. This will help bring things more into
balance. For example, if you have been
putting the needs of others before yourself, then take time to do something
special for yourself to acknowledge that you are just as important as those you
care for. It is wonderful to help
others, but the energy of this card encourages you to think also of you and
what you want. If you are seeking more harmony in your life, this is a good
place to start. This may also be a sign that now is the time to accept
responsibility for past actions, being kind to yourself when remembering any
mistakes made. Do what is right in all
situations, acting on ethical principles. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: There will be a lot of
positive action in store during the month, for what an energetic,
action-oriented month it has the potential to be! The interesting thing is that
three of the four cards are Major Arcana, which means that their energy will be
with you a bit longer, and they are more significant for you during the
month. Spirit is telling you to pay
attention to these messages, for they are important for you to know. Therefore, take heed that July can be a month
of wonderful creativity with a steady flow of ideas. Recognize your power to
create the kind of world you would like to surround yourself with, realizing
the importance of thinking and taking care of yourself. Key ideas are kindness and support, loving
yourself, seeing the possibility of miracles and magic, and focusing on
balance. What a wonderful month it can
be, so look forward to an action-packed time where things really start to get
off the ground.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i>Vibration</i></b> is our own unique personal energy frequency. It is the result of the accumulation of all
our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions in our internal world; as well as
experiences and interactions in our external world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our energy field (and vibration) can be in or out of
balance. If it is out of balance,
dis-ease can result. To raise our vibration, we focus on thoughts, words, and
deeds of joy and love. Fear and anger
lower our vibration. A higher vibration
gives us a feeling of well-being; we feel lighter and more in tune with
ourselves and our external world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Like attracts like (the Law of Attraction), so if we want to
have positive experiences, we need to keep our vibration at a high level. We can surround ourselves by people who match
our higher vibrational level, and these people and opportunities are drawn to
us because of this.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So what can we do to raise our vibration? Here are 10
suggestions:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Physically<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1<b><i>. Diet, Hydration, Sleep</i></b>: What we eat is extremely important for our
health. Organic foods have a naturally
higher vibration than sugary or fried foods, or those containing
preservatives. Drink clean purified or
filtered water before you start feeling thirsty, and adhere to a sleep routine
that keeps you in balance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. <b><i>Movement</i></b>: When we move our bodies, we are moving our
energy and feel better overall. Find
what works for you, such as dance, yoga, tai chi, Qigong, swimming, walking,
jogging, hiking.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. “<b><i>Feel
Good” Activities</i></b>: Anything that
brings us joy and love automatically raises our vibration, so engage in what
makes you feel good—laughing, singing, gardening, getting a massage, spending
time with friends, playing with pets, expressing gratitude, forgiving those who
have hurt you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Emotionally<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. <b><i>Be
Authentic</i></b>: Being honest with
ourselves and expressing emotions rather than suppressing them goes a long way
to increasing our vibration.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. <b><i>Self-Love</i></b>: Love and nurture yourself by doing what
raises your energy level rather than depleting it, such as associating only
with people who match our vibration; watching, listening, and paying attention
to information from the media that is uplifting rather than fear-inducing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mentally<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. <b><i>Change
the Stories We Tell</i></b>: If we
retell and focus on experiences that involve a lot of judging or blaming, we
will stay in a lower vibration. We
should tell stories that help our growth and evolution.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. <b><i>Switch
to Positive Thoughts</i></b>: If you
think of something negative, rather than dwelling on it change it to a more
positive thought by thinking of something you are grateful for.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Spiritually<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8. <b><i>Meditation</i></b>: Meditation can refer to not only sitting in a
quiet place and focusing on your breath; it can also include repetitive
activities (such as doing a household chore), doing something you really enjoy,
appreciating a beautiful nature scene such as a sunset, or watching waves on
the ocean.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">9. <b><i>Energy
Healing</i></b>: Reiki, sound therapy,
crystal therapy, aromatherapy, acupuncture, and herbal remedies all help to
open energy channels and transmute lower frequencies into higher vibrations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">10. <b><i>Grounding; Aura and Chakra Cleansing</i></b>: An easy way to do this is to visualize a
white light entering your crown and cleansing everything as it travels down
your body. Anything negative will be
released into the ground.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

this month, which means that you will be very action-oriented, so this is a
good time to start something new or finish that which you have been working
on. You are very creative and
innovative, so take advantage of this opportunity to use your enthusiasm and
confidence to strike out in a new direction if you have felt stifled. You are bold and willing to take a risk,
unconcerned with what others think. Use

You can receive a double dose of self-confidence this month when bringing plans
to fruition and being practical with all matters. It is time to stop daydreaming and “get the
show on the road”. Take a realistic approach, using if necessary what is at
hand instead of planning something exotic that may take more time and
effort. Now is the time to work smarter,
not harder. Allow more prosperity into
your life by growing and expanding, drawing on your King of Wands energy to
take action.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>10 OF SWORDS</b>:
Things have been tough, and there have been many challenges to grapple
with. However, the good news is that
whatever problems and difficulties you have experienced are coming to an
end. So instead of worrying and fretting
about what is going on, take a deep breath and realize that you are coming to
the end of a cycle and things will get better.
Just be patient, hang in there, and try not to stay in a negative
space. An upturn is just around the
corner, so release any anxiety and look forward to the start of a new day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>3 OF CUPS</b>:
June will be a wonderful month for you to feel exuberant and enthusiastic,
where you are in high spirits, recognizing all the good things that are
happening in your life. It is also a
time for feeling and appreciating a sense of community with those you have a
common bond of teamwork and cooperation.
This sense of camaraderie is especially important now, since we are
living in a world that is chaotic at times, unsettled and unsure. You can overcome these feelings by trusting
those in your community and getting together with like-minded people. A network of support is available to you, so
take time to be grateful for the bond that you feel for others. Celebrations can spontaneously occur as you
connect at a deeper level with those you interact with.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH: </b>June should be a great month for a number of reasons. You will experience the double action-packed
energy of the King of Wands and the Page of Coins. You will be feeling
self-confident, creative, and bold. You
will have opportunities to move ahead with plans and goals instead of just
wishing things were better. You can create whatever you put your mind to, and
now is the time. Don’t worry too much
about what has happened in the past and the problems you have had to deal with,
for those will go by the wayside pretty soon.
Take what lessons you learned from these challenges and then move
on. Once you do that, you can enjoy the
sense of group bonding and cooperation you feel for those who live in your
community, for your friends and acquaintances.
Good things are happening, and you will want to rejoice and be happy for
all the possibilities you see.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

two things once together but become separate are still connected, even at a

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>2 OF CUPS: </b>May is a beautiful month when many
flowers are in bloom and spring is in full swing. The uplifting that you feel
this month can carry over into your special relationships. This can include not only romantic
partnerships but also business associates.
Feelings of support, commitment, camaraderie, and fulfillment can all be
expressed with confidence. Revel in all
that is good for those you feel close to, and enjoy at this time the special
bond that you have with them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>4 OF COINS</b>: Because there may be uncertainty tied to the
economic status as well as the overall situation of the country and the world,
it will be important for you to manage your finances and other resources
wisely. Do not be carried away with
buying things that you don’t really need; instead, commit to saving what you
can and being frugal when warranted. It
is also a time for not being overly generous with the amount of information you
disclose to others, especially that which is of a personal nature. There is no need to confide in even close
friends about every single detail of your life, so use discernment when talking
and sharing with others.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>ACE OF WANDS</b>: The energy of this month can spur you on to
opening a new chapter in your life, whether it is a new project, a new job, a
different hobby, or just some kind of change that you have been wanting to make. Feel the fire of motivation within you as you
push forward into unknown realms that before may have been too scary. The Ace of Wands energy will help you move
past previous barriers that held you back.
Now is the time to step out of your comfort zone and light your fire of
new beginnings. Anything is possible, so
stop procrastinating about something you have been thinking and dreaming of
doing. This is the month to get started!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>7 OF WANDS</b>: Closely tied to the Ace of Wands is this
card, which carries the energy of taking a risk and stepping forth with power,
courage, and confidence. It is true that
it is not always good to go headlong into a new situation without thinking
things through, so use your intuition to decide if the time is right for you to
take a chance. If not, then that is
ok. Continue to plan, perhaps laying the
foundation for what is to follow. You
will know when the time is right to step out, so use this time well to plan
what you will do when you feel prepared.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: There are some unique energies circulating this month, so trust in
yourself and your own inner guidance. A
positive note has to do with close relationships. You will find more joy and contentment when
dealing with romantic and/or business partners.
Perhaps you will experience a new level of closeness or a new desire to
do whatever it takes to feel more comfortable.
Because of economic uncertainty, be careful with your money and other
resources. Be cautious, conserve what
can be saved for a later date, and remember that discernment when divulging
information to others is important. The
Wands energy will help you start on something new, especially in an area where
you have been wanting to do something different but were holding back. Just be sure that you have figured out the
best way to proceed, looking at the big picture to ensure you are ready to
launch into a new area. Change can be
difficult and involve risks, but you will know when you are ready. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

will be a time of enjoying the company of family, friends, and loved ones.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a month of new beginnings and the start
of spring, so see this as a symbol of more growth and love.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feel refreshed and rejuvenated by being
around like-minded people, those you really care about, and those who offer
support and nurturing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let yourself be
engulfed in the radiance of unconditional love with your pets too, for they are
amazing in what they can offer us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

sure that you feel like you are getting enough rest, are enjoying yourself and
having fun, and are staying on track with your work or projects.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will also be good to be patient as you go
about your day, making sure that you realize that reaching a significant goal
or accomplishing those big things you plan to do are not done in one day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Live in the present, but pay attention to
what you want your end results to be.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Energy flows where attention goes, so do focus on the goals you are
working on and continue to do so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">3 OF CUPS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>April includes some holidays, so have fun and
celebrate all the good things that you are experiencing in your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be grateful for the gifts you are receiving.
And try spreading joy and happiness when you are surrounded by others.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a wonderful feeling to know that you
are exuding positive energy, which is contagious, and more people will be drawn
to you. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is always something to
celebrate—it does not have to be a big deal or a big thing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It can be the simple things, the small
miracles that you recognize around you—a beautiful sunset, the blooming of
flowers, the singing of birds.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF CUPS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Queen of Cups reminds us of the
importance of being kind, considerate, supportive, and generous towards
others.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because of the challenges and
turmoil that have been going on, it would be wonderful for you to support and
encourage those who may be experiencing difficulties or anxieties.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you stay in a loving and caring space, the
difference you could make in the lives of others can be significant.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also trust your feelings and intuition more,
because this month it may be especially important for you to be heart-centered
and loving.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The kindness you show to
even just one person who maybe has not received such blessings recently can
have huge ramifications for him/her, so don’t discount how much you can
encourage and support others.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>April will bring signs of new growth, perhaps
new ways of thinking, and even new opportunities to express and enjoy yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feel the comfort of being around those you
love, and bask in these warm feelings.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Remember to stay balanced by giving attention to <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">all</i></b> areas of your life,
rather than working too hard, for example.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Well-rounded experiences will bring more serenity and joy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Try not to be impatient, wanting results
immediately when the reality is that it may take time for things to come to fruition
that you have been working on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instant
gratification is not necessarily rewarding, for it does not always lead to
long-lasting results. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This month is also
a time to “let your hair down” and just have some fun.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Try doing something new and different,
spending more time with loved ones you may have neglected in the past, and
taking time for yourself that will help restore your equilibrium.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And finally, help others as much as you can
by spreading good vibrations, helping when you can, and listening to your heart
more than your head. Amazing things can happen when you stay heart-centered.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Over 2,000 years ago, Hippocrates said, “All disease begins
in the gut.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are finding out more and
more how true this is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Intestinal health is important because overall health is
based on what we eat--what is digested in the body.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Amazingly, an unhealthy gut can lead to a
number of diseases, such as diabetes and obesity, but also others such as rheumatoid
arthritis, autism spectrum disorder, depression, and chronic fatigue syndrome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">That’s why it makes sense for us to analyze our diet and
look at the foods we are putting into our bodies. It could be that by changing
our diet we can change our gut health, and health in general.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">In our gut live trillions of micro-organisms; in fact, there
are ten times more bacteria in our gut than there are cells in the entire
body.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Scientists call these bacteria
“flora”, and they help with normal gastrointestinal function, provide protection
from infection, regulate metabolism, and make up <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">more</i> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">than 75% of our immune
system</i>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No wonder we should be
looking at what we eat to make ourselves healthier!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>What are some things that can hurt the gut flora from doing
its job properly?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here are just a few</strong>:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">An important point about antibiotics is that they cause a
significant and rapid loss of diversity in the gut flora as well as a shift in
its composition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The diversity is not
recovered without some type of intervention.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The gut actually uses bacteria to produce energy from
food.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This helpful bacteria is called <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">probiotics</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you have problems such as gas, bloating,
diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain and cramping, autoimmune disease (such
as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes), or neuromuscular
diseases, perhaps it is time to take a look at exactly what you are eating.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

of the digestive process.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">3 OF WANDS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>This month it will behoove you to be calm
as you look around and see what has transpired in the world and the changes
that have been taking place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Patience is
called for as we ride the crest of the wave, unsure where it will take us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stay positive and upbeat, visualizing a
future that is in the best interests of us all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Don’t be so much in a hurry to see more change, or more differences in
how you feel about what is happening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
are all “waiting for our ship to come in”, and in the meantime the best thing
we can do is go about our business, keeping a level head and a positive
attitude.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">5 OF CUPS</b>:
Things may be happening that make you uncomfortable, distressed, sad, upset, or
anxious. The best thing to do is to go ahead and feel these emotions, allowing
yourself to really experience them viscerally, and then just let them go.
Longing for what is not in our reality will not necessarily make it so;
however, we can visualize a better world where events are unfolding that bring
the promise of hope and betterment for all of humanity. Look around and think
of all the things you can be grateful for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is better to focus on these rather than what you perceive to be wrong
with the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are all connected, so
the longer we hold on to negative feelings the more we might influence those
around us with negativity. Showing gratitude can go a long way towards
improving your outer world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE SUN</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There will be many bright spots occurring
this month that will make us happy and bring smiles to our faces.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When these moments appear, drink in all that
they have to offer by way of joy, contentment, satisfaction, fulfillment,
rewards, and success.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Everything is not
doom and gloom this month, as you will see when you start recognizing that good
things are indeed happening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let the
light of these good moments and events continue to shine for you, so that in
moments of feeling down you can brighten your mood by remembering the sunshine
times.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">8 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Despite how hard you try, you may still feel
confined, out of control, hindered, or stuck. That is ok, because you can do
something about it. You do not have to wallow in self-pity or sadness; you
still have free will, and you have the ability to get yourself out of whatever
boundaries you have surrounded yourself with.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You have the wherewithal to break free, as the Sun energy will be
present the entire month.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your prison is
of your own making, so don’t let it engulf you to the point where you go around
all month feeling sorry for yourself. Now is the time to break free.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can do it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>March promises to be a month
with mixed blessings, as was February.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>On one hand, it will be important to exercise patience, remembering that
all good things come according to divine timing, not ours.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t get caught up in negative feelings that
bring you down, for you may also be affecting those around you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On the other hand, remember that the Sun
energy is also with us all month, so look for bright spots where you at first
see none, look for light where things seem dark, and look for happiness and joy
where sadness lurks. You have the power to control your own thoughts, so
prepare now to let this be a fantastic month where you are in control of what
happens to you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Decide right now that
March will be a most phenomenal month that holds many opportunities and
possibilities.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The importance of having an alkaline body is coming more to
the public’s awareness as research continues to show its benefits.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">So what does it mean if your body is alkaline? It means that
the pH (potential of hydrogen), which is measured on a 0-14 scale, is more alkaline than acid in your body’s fluids
and tissues, .<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The more acid there is in your body, the lower the pH; the more
alkaline, the higher it is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A pH of 7.4
is considered optimal for the human body, which is slightly alkaline.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">One explanation of what alkaline means is as follows:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“Water is the most abundant compound in the human body, comprising
70% of the body. The body has an acid-alkaline (or acid-base) ratio called the </span><strong><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">pH which is a
balance between positively charged ions (acid-forming) and negatively charged
ions (alkaline-forming.)</span></strong><span style="font-family: "calibri";"> The body continually strives to
balance pH. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When this balance is
compromised many problems can occur.” (</span></span><a href="http://hellodollface.com/2013/08/whats-does-alkaline-mean-and-why-should-we-care/"><span style="color: windowtext;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">http://hellodollface.com/2013/08/whats-does-alkaline-mean-and-why-should-we-care/</span></span></a><span style="font-family: "calibri";">)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">The way we keep our bodies balanced and in an alkaline state
depends a lot on our diet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we
recognize what foods are alkaline and which are acidic, we can eat more of
those that are alkaline.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Why is it important for us to have an alkaline body?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because too much acid can cause health
issues, such as fatigue, a skin breakout, a slight case of irritable bowel
syndrome, or a runny nose.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These are
just minor, but they could be the first signs that your body is too acidic and
needs to be more in balance and closer to an alkaline state.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Too much acid in your body can promote the growth of bad
bacteria, yeast, and fungi.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because the
amount of good bacteria in your body is out of balance, you could be more prone
to getting infections.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">A major benefit of keeping your body alkaline is that you
could reduce the chances of getting cancer. When the body has too much acid,
oxygen levels are lowered and cellular metabolism ceases.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This could lead to the growth of cancer
cells.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Some other benefits of an alkaline body are:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>deeper, more restful sleep; more physical
energy; fewer colds, headaches or flu; good digestion; and increased mental
alertness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Some foods and drinks that promote an alkaline body are green juice,
lemon juice (just mix some warm water with lemon juice first thing in the
morning), leafy greens, cucumbers, melons, and chia seeds.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also good are avocados, figs, almonds,
pumpkin seeds, green tea, and tomatoes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Foods that create more acid in the body are processed sugar,
dairy, conventional meat, and coffee.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Some others that form acid in the body are peanut butter, cranberries,
corn oil, potatoes, and butter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">It is not necessary to eat only an alkaline diet, but it is
important to be aware of what foods are acidic and try to stay away from them
as much as possible.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">WHEEL OF FORTUNE</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Everything goes in cycles, and this month
brings continued hope for a new and better year than 2016.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are reaching the pinnacle of this cycle as
we come into the blessings of this month. Look for the good in things that
affect you, even if in your mind you wonder what good is to be found in a
particular issue or situation? It may be a lesson to be learned, a change that
is a message for you to express gratitude, or just a sign that things are
improving. Do your best to stay positive, for we are indeed in the upswing of a
new cycle.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">3 OF SWORDS</b>:
There may be bouts of sadness, disappointment, doubt and anxiety as events
continue to unfold in the world. It is normal to feel upset about the chaos
that is still present, but remember that nothing stays the same, and changes
are in the air. So whatever negative feelings you may be experiencing can be
dispelled by refusing to let yourself be bombarded by sad or depressing news,
or to be adamant about not staying in a sad or depressed state because of what
is going on in the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remember that
“this too shall pass”, and then get on with your life.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">8 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feelings of hesitancy and doubt may cause you
to feel paralyzed when having to make a decision or take action. The best thing
to do if this happens is to take a step back from the situation and look at it
as objectively as possible. Use your logical analytical brain to come up with
pros and cons for various alternatives, or trust your intuitive right brain. An
even better approach is to combine the two to reach a decision that may be the
most balanced and well-rounded. You have the ability to think through any
challenge or issue, so exert your power and take a stand.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">KING OF SWORDS</b>: It
is time to move forward, to get into the King vibration and start feeling
self-confident, decisive, and powerful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You will feel an inner-knowing that you are on the right track and there
is nothing to fear. The King is not hesitant or wishy-washy, nor would he
question his decisions once they have been made. He is a strong and powerful
leader in whom others have full confidence. You can adopt his energy as your
own by recognizing your powers and abilities, not allowing yourself to stay in
the 8 of Swords or 3 of Swords energy. It is time to leave the past behind and look
forward to what lies ahead.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE MONTH</b>:
February brings mixed blessings, but ones that in the long run are good and
valuable. Things will start out hopeful, optimistic, and upbeat as we enjoy the
newness in this second month of the year, and relish the differences we can see
that are positive. However, these feelings are tempered by some challenging
events that can try and test us, but we have the ability to get beyond all
this, as long as we recognize what we are in control of and what is not within
our control. If any negative feelings cause you to feel as if you are caught in
a web of doubt, suspicion or fear, then use the King of Swords energy to
eliminate negative attitudes by seeking the truth, knowing you can make
decisions that affect you, and thus stay in control of your own life. The month
may seem topsy-turvy at times, but the power is there to help you persevere,
feeling grounded and sure-footed.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Blog #65: Is There a Difference Between Emotions and Feelings?</span></strong></span></div>
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We often assume that emotions and feelings are the same, but
there is a difference that is important to recognize, because understanding
this could have an impact on your health (especially realizing the harm that
harboring toxic emotions can cause).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">As described by shaman author Alberto Villoldo, “Emotions
are ancient survival programs encoded in the limbic brain, and when toxic
emotions dominate your thinking and nervous system, you put yourself in
danger.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(p. 94)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Another author describes an emotion as a “physical response
to change that is hardwired and universal.” (</span><a href="http://emotionaldetective.typepad.com/emotional-detective/2012/04/emotions-vs-feelings.html"><span style="color: windowtext;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">http://emotionaldetective.typepad.com/emotional-detective/2012/04/emotions-vs-feelings.html</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;">)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In other words, an emotion is a biological
response that is part of our physiological make-up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Feelings, on the other hand, are “of the moment and
transitory.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You might have an occasional
feeling of anger toward your children or spouse, a spontaneous flash that sends
a surge of chemicals through your body and brain, but the feeling passes and
soon and equanimity returns.” (Villoldo, p. 95)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Another viewpoint is that feelings are a “mental
associations and reactions to an emotion that are personal, acquired through
experience”. (</span><a href="http://emotionaldetective.typepad.com/emotional-detective/2012/04/emotions-vs-feelings.html"><span style="color: windowtext;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">http://emotionaldetective.typepad.com/emotional-detective/2012/04/emotions-vs-feelings.html</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;">)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So two distinctions between emotions and feelings are:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(1)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Emotions
originate in the brain and have a biological origin, whereas feelings are
mental reactions to our emotions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(2)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Emotions can
remain stuck in our bodies if we let them, whereas feelings are more transitory
and are sparked by our emotions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Feelings can be very different from one person to another, even though
the same emotion may have been evoked by the same event.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How we feel about and react to a situation is
related to our experiences.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Toxic
emotions can remain in the body for hours, days, or even years.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Understanding these basic differences between emotions and
feelings can help us better cope with emotions that can be detrimental to our
health.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So what do we do if we have
negative emotions that are stuck and cause us physical, mental, or emotional
pain? We get help to find the root cause of the emotion and release it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">8 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The start of the New Year could find you
feeling unsure, unsettled, indecisive; it may even seem that you are paralyzed
to a certain extent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many things
happened near the end of 2016 that caused feelings such as these to
surface.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But that is in the past, and
now is the time to realize that you are in control of your own choices and
feelings.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You do not have to believe
that you are bound strictly by what has happened or your perception of what has
transpired. You have the power to remove the shackles of whatever is surrounded
by negativity. Release yourself from your own prison, and see how much happier you
will be.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">2 OF WANDS</b>: See
January as a decision time for you. You can use the fire energy of the Wands to
allow yourself to progress forward, or you can hesitate and not take action
even though you know it will be helpful for you. The key to determining which
path you will take rests with you and you alone. No one can make this decision
for you; so plot a path for yourself at the start of the month to give you an
idea of where you want to go, and how you can bring more positive energy and
inspiration into your life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DEATH:</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>January will truly be a time of
transformation and real change for many of us. It is time to let the old ways
of thinking and doing just fall by the wayside, for they belong to the past,
and the past is dead. Focus instead on the new energy that is coming onto the
Earth during the month, and be amazed at how much better you can feel simply by
letting go of the past. Remember that anything is possible, and this month
could see more changes that were not expected. Stay in an energy field of
knowing that whatever happens is for our highest and best good, and all will be
well. This year promises to be one of hope, new ideas, new beginnings, and
release. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF SWORDS</b>:
It will be important this month to be honest with yourself, perhaps making some
changes that might be painful. Are you ready to let go of what is standing in
your way from being the true, authentic person you can be? This may mean that
it is time to let go of friends with whom you no longer have much in common, to
look at job alternatives if you are unhappy in your job, or to start following
a budget or other plan that will make you feel more financially secure.
Whatever you are holding on to because it keeps you in your comfort zone is not
helping you; now is the time to let it go and move on. The Queen of Swords will
help you recognize what changes will be most beneficial for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Happenings this month may cause you to feel
all shaken up as you recognize the need to make changes in your life. Some changes
are coming regardless of what you feel, so it would be better to accept that
change is inevitable and go with the flow. You may have to make some hard
decisions to get yourself in a better place, but the Swords energy will be with
you as you understand that the true value of being an authentic person is to
stand in your own power and independence. Believe in yourself, do what is in
your best interests, and look forward to all the promise that the New Year can
bring.</span></div>

giving to others, but equally important is to remember and cherish
ourselves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Giving and giving to others
without taking care of ourselves can be detrimental to our health.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So while you have your friends and family
foremost in your mind this month, also take time to think of you—what could you
do to bring more harmony, love, and peace into your life through kind actions
that you do for yourself? Take a break from the hectic activities, take a walk,
go to a movie, or meet friends for dinner.</span></div>

tasks or work that brings a sense of accomplishment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With the strong energetic Knight energy
accompanying the Coins, you are in a unique position to<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>keep yourself going by focusing on what needs
to be done—tying up loose ends—that will prepare you for the new year. Anything
left hanging by the end of the month can carry over into January, but give
yourself the gift of satisfaction by completing maybe one or two goals that you
have been working on.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">7 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Use discernment when reading or listening to
news about what is going on in the world today. Think about it carefully—does
it make sense? Are you able to see a pattern related to past events? Does it
sound like this news is for your highest and best good? Accept what rings true
for you, and discard the rest. There is no need to be filled with fear, worry,
and anxiety as this year comes to a close. Replace this negativity with a more
positive and optimistic outlook, and you will feel so much better.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">5 OF COINS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>December is the perfect time to remind
yourself of all the things in your life that you have to be grateful for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you are feeling down or “in a funk”, you
may be able to raise your spirits by helping others in just a few small ways--giving
your full attention to others when conversing, showing appreciation for the
small things, giving compliments, or sharing a smile with someone who looks
sad. If the materialism of the season bothers you, then don’t get drawn into
it. Rather than giving physical gifts, you can give spiritually by
volunteering, spreading kindness and unconditional love wherever you go, or
donating to a worthy cause in the name of a gift recipient.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to think at least a little bit of yourself as well as others, remembering the
importance of leading a balanced life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Show
will power and determination as you finish uncompleted projects or tasks, concentrating
on one or two that are most significant. Use your intuition and discernment to
make sense of any mainstream media news that is negative or brings you down. It
may not even be the truth, so if it seems a little “off”, forget about it and
move on. The holidays can be stressful, so if you find yourself feeling overwhelmed,
live just one day at a time, expressing gratitude for what you have. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Enjoy the company of friends or loved ones who
can bring you joy by just being in their presence. This is more than any
material presents can bring you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

WANDS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>A lot will be happening this
month and things are on the move.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Focus
on what you need to accomplish, because the combination of the powerful King
energy and the Fire energy will help you move forward and stay on your
path.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let go of any worries about what
is happening in the world and our country, concentrating instead on your own
sphere of influence and what you can do to make your world a better place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You are “on fire” this month as you get into
a change mode and make a difference in your own life, so don’t let this
opportunity go by.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">KNIGHT OF CUPS</b>:
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will see positive movement in
relationships, with the wonderful Knight energy encouraging you to seek out ways
you can bring current friendships and partnerships to a higher level, enjoying aspects
of them that perhaps you never noticed before. Spread unconditional love where
you see there is none.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Focus on
remembering that we are all connected rather than allowing divisiveness and
rhetoric to consume you. Now more than ever is a time when we need to realize
the importance of interconnectedness, recognizing our similarities rather than
differences.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">4 OF WANDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Things have been murky and unclear for some
time, but as hard as it may seem to believe now, things are on an upswing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anything is possible, and miracles do happen.
The state of our country now is not set in stone, and what appears to be on the
horizon may not be so. Just take it a day at a time, visualize a country where
we all learn to get along, and remember to inwardly stay peaceful and calm.
That is the best way to have peace in your own life, regardless of the chaos
that may be swarming around you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">9 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anxiety, worry, and doubt may be in the air,
but you have the power to not let it bother you by not concentrating on what
appears to be. We have tremendous power within ourselves that can affect those
around us, so once again stay positive, release the fear, and focus on a better
world that is our future. We must continue to be inspired with all the good we
see around us, and have hope and optimism that we are ready to move on, having
learned the lessons we needed during the previous tumultuous months.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fear and worry do not have to be a part of
your life, so avert it by setting an intention that you will see good coming
out of the craziness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: An exciting and unpredictable month is ahead, so use to best
advantage the Knight and Fire forces prevalent to carry you along on a positive
trajectory. Focus on yourself and what you can control, what you are
responsible for, and what you as an individual can do to make this a better
place. Relationships will prosper and bring joy, so have fun with others,
enjoying one another’s company. The murkiness that has been clouding our vision
and interfering with feelings of calm will give way to more hope and optimism,
regardless of the way things may look at the start of the month and as they
unfold. Remember that anything is possible. Stay in a hopeful, optimistic state
of mind rather than in one of anxiety and worry. Do not let fear prevent you
from accomplishing all that is possible for you this month. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

something that you enjoy, something that you can lose yourself in.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There may be many distractions coming up, so
the best thing to do is to focus on an enjoyable activity, hobby, or work that
gives you pleasure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This will be far
better than paying attention to fear-mongering news programs or
newspapers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is ok to follow the news,
because we do need to be aware of what is going on in the world, but do not
allow it to put you into a fear-based state that you carry around with
you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stay in a calm, peaceful state, and
this will be projected outward.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can
spread positive energy just by keeping yourself grounded and focused on peace.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE EMPRESS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As we continue the transformation from the
Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius, we will see more and more the impact of
the Divine Feminine energy, which was suppressed for so long.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are entering a time where the patriarchal
and feminine energies will balance each other.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The kind, nurturing, and supportive feelings will start coming to the
forefront as we move along our paths.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Feel this beautiful sense of helping others, providing aid when needed,
and spreading unconditional love as you go about your day. We are on the brink
of something wonderful, despite all the negative events that are occurring. Let
the Empress energy fill you, bringing you love, support, and guidance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

more about what is truly happening in our world. Seek out the truth, being
careful to use discernment when exposed to new ideas and information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Do not be afraid of what you might learn;
sometimes the truth is hard to accept.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You may have a choice to make—blindly following what is being told through
the mainstream media, or striking out on your own, researching other sources of
information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Buddha said: “Three things
cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are at a point where this is truer than
ever, so we need to keep our eyes and ears open, and be willing to not believe
all that is broadcast.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

confronted with, it is important for us to be self-confident and self-assured
as we deal with whatever comes our way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Do not let anything stand in your way of seeking out the truth, of
following your own path, and staying true to your inner self.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let your authentic self come forth and trust
that you will be given the courage and fortitude to handle any difficulty or
issue that arises.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We all have the Queen
of Wands energy somewhere within us; we just need to believe in ourselves and
have faith that we can overcome any obstacle that lies in our path. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As change, uncertainty, and a
bit of chaos continue to exist in our world, we need to take care of ourselves
so we do not get caught up in this whirlwind of negativity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Refrain from getting too immersed in the
mainstream media, choosing instead to focus on something that you enjoy. This
is a far better distraction than getting caught up in information that may be
questionable.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let the Empress energy
surround and engulf you, so you can freely give love, kindness, and support to
those who need it, as well as to yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Pursue the truth, remembering that all will come out eventually.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Draw on your own inner strength, letting your
confident self shine through.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now it is
more important than ever to trust and believe in ourselves, knowing that we can
make a difference in the world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Dr. Bruce Lipton, the author of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Biology of Belief</i> and other books, explains quite clearly the true
role that genetics plays in our health.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We have been led to believe that our genes control our bodies and our
health, rather than we ourselves being in charge of our bodies, and therefore must just accept our "genetic fate" that we have
inherited from our parents.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to take a more holistic approach to health, recognizing that energy, though
invisible, is very real.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Albert Einstein

physical reality.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">3 OF SWORDS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>There will continue to be fear and
anxiety in the world as we get into September.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>All the unsettling news of the summer will have an impact on how the
world is viewed and the perception that things are still going awfully awry.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although we can do little to impact the
behavior of others who cause chaos, we do have the ability to alter the way we
look at all that is happening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Despite
the bad news, we can continue to envision the world bathed in pure white light,
surrounded by St. Germain’s violet light of transmutation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We can send love and healing energy to those
who are adversely affected by any negativity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We can stop watching mainstream news, which just encourages the fear instilled
through all the negative events to continue on and on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We also must believe that things will get
better, but they may get worse before we see the light at the end of the
tunnel.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">2 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is time to remove the blinders of what is
truly going on in the world. Rather than trusting the news shown on mainstream
TV stations, why not choose to explore alternative news sites on the internet
to get a different perspective? The truth is being hidden from us, and as more
people awaken to this fact, change can happen, starting at the grassroots
level.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The sadness created in the last
few months is a wake-up call for those who have been sleeping and have been
oblivious to what has been occurring in our world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We must continue to educate ourselves and dig
for more information, then use discernment to decide for ourselves what to
believe.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">ACE OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>By looking for other sources of information,
we provide to ourselves new mental energy and new ideas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let all the Swords energy of this month help
you cut away the lies, deceit, and disinformation so you can free yourself from
fear and worry.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is up to us to seek
answers to what is going on under the surface.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We may not get to the whole truth, but we will learn the importance of
trusting ourselves, our own intuition, and our heart.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">7 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This card is a summary of what we have been
dealing with for quite a while in our world. Deception, disinformation, double
talk, distortion of information—this is what we have been exposed to, but the truth
is starting to come out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Do not get
discouraged by all the negative news, and do positive things for yourself that
will help you cope whenever you hear of another tragedy. Pray for those that
have been hurt, send them love and healing energy, surround yourself with white
light, and then let it go. It does no good to dwell on the bad state of affairs
and what an awful world we live in now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Yes, there is a lot of chaos and pain, but we can rise above it if we so
choose. Do not wallow in fear, for this does nothing but makes things worse.
Stay in a positive frame of mind as best you can.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: September is a Swords month, which means that there will be a lot of
cutting away of whatever is not in our best interest or not for our highest
good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>More and more people are awakening
to the truths that are beginning to be exposed and changing their beliefs about
many things. It may be a time of discomfort and cognitive dissonance, but we
will move through this as we remember that it is always darkest before dawn. We
have free will, so we can choose to be influenced by all the negativity around
us, or we can choose to turn off the fear-mongering TV news and focus on
sending out unconditional love to everyone. Visualize an Earth where we are all
living in peace, with no more war and strife. It starts with us—we must change
ourselves from within to see positive change manifesting outwardly.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">After experiencing a challenging situation or a difficult
problem, have you noticed that you begin developing aches and pains in your
body that were not there before?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Did you know that when we have strong emotions, they do not
just go away? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since emotions are
basically energy, they are stored in the cellular memory of our bodies, as well
as specific parts of the body.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is
why health conditions are attached to our feelings and how we react to what
happens to us. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Louise Hay, a
metaphysical author and teacher, has written a best-selling book describing
various mental causes for a host of physical illnesses—<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Heal Your Body</i>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a good
reference book to help you determine the root cause of an illness or condition;
it helps you begin healing the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">cause</i></b>, not the symptoms.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The medical field focuses mostly on the
symptoms, which is why often a condition is treated continually with
medication, rather than being eliminated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For example, Louise says that cancer is caused by “Deep
hurt. Longstanding resentment. Deep secret or grief eating away at the
self.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Carrying hatreds. (Asking) ‘What
is the use?’ “ (<em>Heal Your</em> <em>Body</em>, p. 22.) Another example--Knee problems:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“Stubborn ego and pride. Inability to bend.
Fear. Inflexibility. Won’t give in.” (p. 46).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">A negative attitude leads to negative emotions, which are
eventually expressed physically in the body, if we allow them to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is why it is so important to stay
positive, which raises our vibration, thus helping us to develop a good immune
system.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Our emotions cause our body to release different hormones,
such as serotonin, dopamine or oxytocin if we are happy and in a good frame of
mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we are stressed, the body
releases cortisol, which hinders our immune system from working properly since
we are in survival mode.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Continued
elevated cortisol levels lead to inflammation, where most if not all illnesses
begin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">So how can we improve
our emotional health?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

nearby park to spend time in nature, going back to an abandoned hobby that you
truly enjoyed, or spending more time with good friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whatever it is, you will feel more energetic

world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Things are not what they seem,
and fear is rampant in some areas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rather
than giving in to fear of the future or fear of where our country and the world
are headed, focus instead on all that you have to be grateful for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It does you nor anyone else any good to
wallow in the bad news that seems to surround us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Keep yourself in a space of unconditional
love for yourself and others who are going through a rough time or just need
support.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We can change the world through
love, and this is a good month to continue along this path.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remember, it is always darkest before dawn,

anxiety, worry, or fear come your way, the best thing to do is to allow
yourself to experience these feelings in your body and heart, and then let them
go.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t try to suppress them, for this
may just make the hurt and pain feel worse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This is not always easy to do, but if you give yourself a certain amount
of time to feel sorry for yourself and then distract yourself by doing
something different, you may find that you are able to move forward.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pain will happen, but how long we allow
ourselves to suffer with the pain is up to us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Choose to help yourself heal by releasing the pain or fear, or get the
help of someone else who is equipped to assist you.<o:p></o:p></div>

MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Much opportunity awaits those
this month who are willing to help themselves in a variety of ways.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Doing something different, getting out of
your routine, accepting rather than fighting change—these are all ways of
taking advantage of the August energy. Take time to do things that bring you
pleasure, and if faced with worries or fears, remember that “This too shall
pass”, and you can get through it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t
let the fear-mongering going on in the world now affect you, and recognize that
many truths are being brought into the light.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

designed as a practice to unite the mind and the body.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This helps with a more positive outlook and
experiencing more serenity and peace.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The word “yoga” means union, especially “union with the
divine”, although today the spiritual aspect may not be emphasized as much.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The physical aspects of yoga consist of a
series of stretches and poses combined with proper breathing techniques.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a wonderful way to bring more balance
into your life by stretching and strengthening your body, focusing your mind,
and relaxing yet rejuvenating your spirit.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF COINS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>July will be a month of using your
manifesting ability to bring into your life what you want by focusing on your
intuition and third eye. Open this chakra so you can connect to your divine feminine
and let the blessings flow.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Recognize
your power and be open to receiving what you have been working toward and what
you deserve. This can be a month of rewards and material gifts by knowing that
you have the strength and skill to achieve whatever you want. How you go about
it is up to you, so just believe that you can do it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE MAGICIAN</b>:
If you still doubt that this could be a good month for you, the Magician is
here to tell you even more strongly that if you set an intention for what you
want to create, focus on it, believe you have the ability, carry out the action
steps to bring it to you (without expecting a specific outcome), then you will
be successful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is very powerful
creative energy that we all possess, except that for many of us we don’t
believe that we are capable of accomplishing this.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is up to you to decide if you are tired of
not having things work out, or if you feel like you are struggling and going
nowhere. Now is the time to take definite steps towards changing your reality
for the better.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DEATH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some more major energy will be with us this
month—that of huge transformation and change. We are not talking just about
changes in your outer world (such as a new job, a change of residence, or other
changes in our personal lives), but this also speaks to the transforming of our
inner selves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many more people are
awakening to the truth of what our reality is all about, and they are becoming
dissatisfied with the <em>status quo</em>. This is what serves as the impetus for making
major personal transformations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So if
you are feeling like things are all out of kilter, or that sometimes things
don’t make sense, just know that these are all symptoms of the changes that are
perhaps occurring on a spiritual level within you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ride these feelings as if you were on top of
a big wave, and see where it brings you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Replace fear of change by welcoming the excitement it brings, and get
ready for wonderful things to happen.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">ACE OF SWORDS</b>:
All of this creative ability and transformation will have you flying high as
new ideas start coming to you, or as you start seeking out information that
previously you may have had no interest in. You feel your brain and mind being
stimulated and expanded like never before, and maybe even feel the flow of new
mental energy coming into you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will
have a clearer understanding of illusions, using your sword to cut through
fabricated confusion. Aces are new beginnings, and you are on the threshold of
a new part of your life (as indicated also by the Death card).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So rather than fighting all things that are
different or unexpected, welcome them with open arms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are in for quite a ride
during July. Not only will we be infused with a motivation and urging to make
our life circumstances better through our own actions, but we will be required
to accept and gallantly move through the changes that are on the horizon. The
end result of these transformative energies can be amazing if you will just
allow them to come to you and then experience the excitement rather than worry
about what the future brings.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Key words
for the month are creativity, manifestation, abundance, magic, transformation,
new ideas, and steadfast belief in yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Have you ever heard the expressions “It is always darkest
before dawn”, “There is a light at the end of the tunnel”, or “Things usually
get worse before they get better”?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">In a nutshell, this is what chemicalization is all
about.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is part of the natural process
of change and transformation, and is a side effect of what happens when we
begin to make changes in our lives by manifesting what we want, generally by
using the Law of Attraction.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is the
reordering of our lives to accommodate the manifestation of change that we work
on during our Law of Attraction work.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Chemicalization is a term that is not often heard in connection with the
Law of Attraction, but it gives another reason why the Law of Attraction does
not always work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It also explains perhaps what is happening in our world
right now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Everything seems to be in
chaos and appears to get worse as each day goes by.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According to the process of chemicalization,
it is necessary because something better and at a higher level cannot and will
not emerge if the old is still in place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is uncomfortable, because we feel like we are being shaken to our
core.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But once we understand how this
process fits into the total scheme of things, then more of what is occurring
begins to make sense.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">You may have seen chemicalization take place in your own
life too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Perhaps you have worked on
bringing some type of abundance into your life, only to experience just the
opposite. Things seem to start falling apart right before your eyes, and you
get discouraged thinking that nothing will turn out right. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One author describes the process this way:<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“Consider an actual chemical
process where two chemicals are mixed together and the mixture bubbles up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We must learn how to look past what is happening
at the moment and see what will happen after the chemical process has settled
down and is complete.” (</span><a href="http://bodymindandspirit2.blogspot.com/2013/09/chemicalization.html"><span style="color: #0563c1; font-family: Calibri;">http://bodymindandspirit2.blogspot.com/2013/09/chemicalization.html</span></a><span class="MsoHyperlink"><u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">)<o:p></o:p></span></span></u></span></div>
<span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Whether you are concerned about chemicalization happening
in your life or in the world, there are some things we can do to relieve the
stress that this process might bring.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">6 OF COINS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>Practicing generosity and having
compassion for others are positive actions we can take that will help us feel
better in these discordant times. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There
is a balance of giving and receiving that is important and becomes more so now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are not only talking about monetary or
material gifts, but also the feelings associated with giving of
ourselves—whether it is a random act of kindness, giving someone a sincere
compliment, or just saying hello to someone who passes by.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also, the idea of balance is embodied in this
card—is your life balanced in a healthy way? Are you drawing on both your
masculine and feminine sides? Are you using both your left and right brain
hemispheres so you come to decisions that are right for you? Are you staying in
a positive frame of mind and being grateful for the good things in the world,
rather than focusing on what is wrong and how bad things seem to be? You have
the power to get yourself balanced, and the rewards can be amazing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE LOVERS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This card can represent not only love,
friendship, relationships, or a partnership, but also choice, discernment, and
(once again) balance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The energy and
changes in the air now are requiring many of us to make choices about a variety
of things—deciding if we are truly happy and if not, what to do about it;
realizing that dissatisfaction is a good thing because it makes us move out of
the status quo; and understanding that the decisions we are making can be life-transforming.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is why use of discernment and careful
consideration are key.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The idea of
self-love is also important, because many of us have been brought up to see
this as being selfish. We can alter our feelings about ourselves for the better
simply by looking in the mirror and saying to ourselves “I love you” every
single day or doing something just for ourselves. Lack of self-love appears to
be prevalent in our society, but asking yourself if you practice self-love can
bring awareness to this part of your life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF SWORDS</b>:
Some qualities this Queen possesses are being straightforward, independent,
fair, analytical, and perceptive; yet also compassionate, quick, and
gracious.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The truth is very important to
her, and she can see through lies easily.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The current political state of our world is fraught with lies and
disinformation. Rather than getting upset and frustrated with this situation,
we can learn to be more like this Queen, who sees the truth yet is able to understand
and perceive what is really going on (i.e., things are being played out now
that have been occurring for many, many years).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>She is compassionate and fair-minded, realizing that the truth cannot be
hidden for long. Truth will prevail.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">10 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We all have times in our lives when we think
that our current situation is as bad as it gets. We do eventually move through
the pain, knowing that there is an end in sight. This card could be a depiction
of the state of our world right now—we wonder how things can get any worse. But
10—the number of completion—tells us that a fresh start is possible. So rather
than feeling miserable and struggling against what is happening, just surrender
to what will be and keep sending unconditional love to all those who are
responsible for the sad state of the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Just know that things will get better—this is the Age of Aquarius after
all!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH:</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The themes for June are
balance, generosity, self-love, making wise choices, seeing the truth, and believing
that we are at the end of one cycle of challenges and are in the process of
moving into a better place. Practice kindness to others and yourself, look
critically at your current situation to make wise choices about your future,
see the truth without getting discouraged, and have faith that things can and
indeed will change.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Keep a positive

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Mindfulness is focusing awareness on the present moment, and
it does not require meditation or doing anything extra special.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It just requires putting awareness into
everything we do in our lives. If practiced regularly, it can become a daily
habit and life-long routine leading to happiness and a sense of well-being.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“. . . the
awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present
moment and non-judgmentally. That sounds pretty simple…but actually when we
start paying attention to how much we pay attention, half of the time our minds
are all over the place and we have a very hard time sustaining attention.” (</span><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/30/habits-mindful-people_n_5186510.html"><span style="color: windowtext; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/30/habits-mindful-people_n_5186510.html</span></span></a><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><u><span style="font-family: Calibri;">)<o:p></o:p></span></u></span></span></div>

you ever done a simple task, such as turning off a coffee pot, but not paying

or not? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As you are driving away, you may

while eating, we can enjoy our food more and eat more slowly (which is better
for digestion anyway).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If mindful while
doing housework, we can change our perception of it from drudgery to something
more—a task that makes us more aware of the floor we are sweeping or the
furniture we are dusting, perhaps even grateful that we have a house and
furniture to clean. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"></b> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">JUSTICE:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>This month it would be good to practice
being fair to yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Spend time with
self-care—giving yourself whatever your body and intuition are telling you is
needed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Perhaps it is a nap, taking a little
time by yourself to gather your thoughts or just being alone in silence, doing
something fun that you haven’t done in a while, or thinking of yourself before
giving and giving to others.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remove the
blinders that convince you these sorts of things are selfish, for they are not.
By putting yourself first when the need arises, you are bringing greater
harmony and balance into your life. And this is something that is especially
important in a world that seems topsy-turvy at times.<o:p></o:p></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"></b><br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE LOVERS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A partnership may be prominent this month,
whether it relates to romance, personal relationships, or business.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For any kind of relationship to prosper and
grow, careful listening and communicating are necessary, as is a willingness to
compromise when an impasse appears imminent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The self-care noted above is also significant here, because a good
relationship does not require you to give and give without receiving anything
in return.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Solve problems mutually by
being willing to listen to the other person’s viewpoint without judgement. Stay
in a place of calmness and peace when disagreements arise, allowing your
partner or friend to have his/her say before jumping in with your opinion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Take a few deep breaths before speaking if
you feel any anger creeping in, for it is not about “being right” but being
honest, tactful, kind, and supportive.<o:p></o:p><br />

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE EMPEROR</b>:
Feel the powerful energy and strength of the Emperor this month, easily dealing
with whatever blocks or challenges you encounter. Demonstrate your power to
yourself by doing something daring—something you would not ordinarily consider
doing. Do one thing to get out of a rut that will bring a little more sparkle
into your life. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">You</i> have control over
your life—only you, no one else—and the Emperor helps you remember this. The
Emperor is not afraid of change nor his own authority; he is the epitome of
courage, independence, and individualism. He is respected and admired. The
power you have within you (and your positive thoughts) do make a difference in
your outer reality.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">5 OF CUPS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If during the month you experience some rough
times or challenges, the best thing you can do for yourself is to not stay too
long with feelings of doubt, fear, frustration, regret, or sadness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is ok to experience these feelings for a
while, but don’t wallow in them feeling sorry for yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After you are ready to move on from your
“pity party”, you can being to think of all the things that are going right in
your life and all that you are grateful for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Gratitude goes a long way towards putting us in a better space, because
it requires us to focus on appreciation rather than sadness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t be afraid to ask for help from friends
or family if you feel like it; sometimes outside support is better than going
it alone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our lives always include ups
and downs, but how we respond to the downturns is what strengthens us and gives
us the inner power to keep going.<o:p></o:p></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: Overall, this month should be one that empowers and strengthens
you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Take care of yourself, remembering
that receiving is just as important as giving, especially if you want a
balanced and truly loving relationship with others. Communication with partners
will be important, so share with partners or close friends how you truly feel
about issues. It is all about being open and sincere. Feelings of strength and
power will see you through rough times, as long as you don’t spend too much
time harboring negative feelings of lack, sadness, or loneliness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You have what it takes for May to be a
wonderful month, so make it happen!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Retrieved from </span><a href="http://www.soulguidance.co.uk/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">www.soulguidance.co.uk</span></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Law of Attraction, simply stated, says that what we put
out will come back to us. It gained popularity with the book and movie “The
Secret” as related to attracting abundance into our lives.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">However, everyone is not always successful in using this law
to bring into their lives what they want, such as a new job, more money, a
relationship, good health, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why is
that?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Not considered when some people are not successful when using the
Law of Attraction is the importance of at least three things:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(1) Their <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">feelings</i></b> and how this
impacts the results they get; (2) the importance of simply <strong><em>allowing</em></strong> to
happen what you have put out to the universe and hope to attract into your
life; and (3) aligning themselves with qualities that <strong><em>raise their vibration</em></strong>.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 8pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One key, as an author states, is to change your mindset
from <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">wanting</i>—which implies lack—to
the belief and feelings that you <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">already
have</i> what you desire.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“Feeling
abundant allows you to receive abundance.” (</span><a href="http://creationthoughts.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">http://creationthoughts.com/</span></a><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">)<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

feeling, we change our whole mental and emotional state that opens us up to
receiving.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is far different from us
worrying or complaining, which is simply resistance to what we want. In
essence, we are creating a frequency—a vibration—that is more in tune with and
matches the frequency of what we want to bring into our lives.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

involves trust, patience, and faith that what we want will show up in our lives
as it is meant to. There is no need to manipulate, dominate, or control other
people or situations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes, action is
important, but this must be balanced with the ability to let things simply
evolve and happen according to what is right for us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We cannot see the big picture, because our
perspective is limited; the universe/spirit sees a much broader viewpoint and
therefore knows what is truly right for us.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Wayne Dyer refers to the law of
attraction as the Power of Intent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
says: “The law of attraction is this: <em>You don’t attract what you want. You
attract what you are</em>.” (</span></span><a href="http://creationthoughts.com/"><span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">http://creationthoughts.com/</span></a><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">) </span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Rather than
demanding what we want, we put out the request to the universe and then let it
bring to us what we are asking for according to what is in our best
interest.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We don’t know what this is,
but the universe does.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

consciousness by practicing four virtues: (1) reverence for all life
(unconditional love and respect for ourselves and other beings; (2) natural
sincerity (honesty, simplicity, faithfulness); (3) gentleness (kindness,
consideration for others, sensitivity to spiritual truth; and (4)
supportiveness (service to others without expecting a reward).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we do this, we enter a higher vibration
which makes it easier to bring into our lives what we desire.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is, <em>we are operating at a frequency that
is more in tune with attracting good things into our lives.</em> <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

allowing does not mean just sitting and waiting and doing nothing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We still take action, but the action comes
from following our heart, and from allowing things to unfold. It comes from a

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">2 OF COINS: </b>You
may find yourself faced with some decisions during the month that could have an
impact later on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be important to
trust your intuition as well as what your logical mind is telling you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although the choices will not necessarily be
“life or death”, you will still want to consider the various alternatives
carefully before deciding on a course of action.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Try taking a playful approach to the whole
situation, and then just go with what your heart and your mind are telling
you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Heart-centered decisions are the
best way to make choices that are for your highest good.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

to take a risk and get out of your comfort zone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is ok for you to hesitate about this, thinking
carefully before proceeding.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But as with
the 2 of Coins, it would be wise to meld your heart and mind for the best
results.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It may take courageous action
on your part, but remember that to do absolutely nothing is a decision in and
of itself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Push yourself a little as you
decide what to do, and after careful consideration, go with what seems to be
the best approach.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Have faith that your
strength will support you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE HERMIT</b>:
Inner soul-searching is the order of the day as you go within to find out where
you are on your path and where you want to go. Are you happy with what is going
on in your life now? Do you realize that change is necessary but don’t know
where to turn? Have you tried meditating but are getting no answers?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whatever your situation, find a way to spend
even just a little time alone to sort out your thoughts by leaving behind the
noise and distractions of daily life. You can ask others for advice about what
you should do, but in the final analysis you are the one who has to figure out
what is best for you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ask your higher
self to step in and give you guidance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Ask for help, keeping in mind that the difference between praying and
meditation is that when we pray, we are <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">talking</i>
to source, the universe, and/or our guides, and when we meditate we are <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">listening</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

continue, perhaps at an even faster pace.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Coinciding with this situation are the personal transitions occurring in
our lives.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is not just
change we are talking about, but true transformation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is why the decisions you make this month
may be far-reaching for your future—do you want to just stand still and perhaps
feel miserable, or do you want to take a chance and do something that can change
your whole outlook as well as your life itself?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Release what has been holding you back, and strike out on a new
path.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>t is up to you what you do with
this energy of transformation that will be affecting us this month.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>April can be an exciting (and
maybe even scary) month.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be a
time of not standing still any longer, but perhaps even forcing ourselves to
make some decisions that can result in profound results.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Dissatisfaction with our lives is good,
because it requires us to look critically at our current situation and choose
to do something about it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We truly do
have all the answers within us, if we will only trust and believe that this is
so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some actions to consider this month
are meditating, taking some alone time, choosing carefully when a decision is
required, taking a risk, getting out of a self-imposed comfort zone, accepting
that change is a constant, and allowing decisions made to be heart-centered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Himalayan salt lamps are either large pieces of Himalayan
salt with a small bulb inside, or smaller pieces of salt in a decorative
container with a bulb nestled among <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the
pieces.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The colors can be white, opaque,
pink or orange.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It is important to ensure that the lamp is made of pure
Himalayan salt rather than merely rock salt, so ask about the origin to verify
that you are getting the real thing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For
example, Himalayan salt is food-quality and can be consumed.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It should be noted that there is controversy about the true
origins of what is called Himalayan salt, but it is only semantics. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some seem to think that pink rock salt is
usually from Pakistan, but the Himalayas do extend into Pakistan, so that is
not really an issue. The main thing is that the salt is of high quality.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: Calibri;">So how do
Himalayan salt lamps produce these benefits?<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">In a nutshell, the salt lamps are natural negative ion
generators.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Negative ions are good for
us, and they occur more often in nature through lightning storms, wind, sunlight,
moving water (waterfalls and ocean waves), and are even released by plants
during photosynthesis.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">On the other hand, positive ions (known as “free radicals”) are
often created by electronic devices such as computers, TVs, microwaves and even
vacuum cleaners. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Constant exposure to electromagnetic
radiation can result in chronic fatigue, increased stress levels, and a
decrease in the body’s immune response. Also, airborne mold, bacteria, and
allergens often have a positive charge. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Negative ions neutralize (or at least lessen the amount of) positive
ions (by bonding to the positive ions), and this is what helps clear the air
and makes us feel better.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also, negative
ions increase the oxygen flow to the brain which results in higher alertness,
less drowsiness, and more mental energy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The lamps purify the air through a process called
hygroscopy, which means that the lamps attract water molecules from the
surrounding environment and absorb into the salt these molecules and any
impurities they carry.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lamp warms up
the water molecules, and this now-purified water is released back into the air
through evaporation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The trapped
particles of dust, pollen, smoke, etc. stay locked in the salt.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One issue that causes some to question the efficacy of salt
lamps is that it is difficult to measure the amount of negative ions that are
produced by the lamps because there are many variables to be considered.
However, an interesting side note is that NASA uses negative ion generators to
help astronauts recover after a journey into space.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Where to place salt
lamps<o:p></o:p></span></u></b><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The lamps should be placed in rooms where you spend most of
your time, or where most of your electronic equipment is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Good choices are bedrooms, living rooms, and
offices. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It is best to keep the lamps on at all times so that their
positive effects can be maximized.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Prolonged exposure to moisture can cause the salt crystals
to start melting, so they should be kept away from dishwashers, washing
machines, or showers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Final note<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If you question the health benefits, do your own research
and come to your own conclusion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>However, the lamps are beautiful and do seem to bring a peaceful, calm
atmosphere to the rooms they are placed in.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>As usual, though, use your own discretion.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">10 OF COINS</b>:<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>March
is shaping up to be a month of abundance, with good things happening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See the results of your work and efforts
start flowing to you as you enjoy the bounty that is on the way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may experience abundance not just in
finances, but in any area related to the physical world—job/career, health,
home, and/or sense of stability and security.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Start out the month by visualizing what you want and do the work that is
needed to make it happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you have
already put forth the energy, be patient as you see what unfolds.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">JUDGEMENT:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>This month would be a good time to
evaluate where you would like to see yourself in the next several months or a
year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feel rejuvenated and inspired to
do something different that can help propel you forward.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Perhaps you are ready for a change or just
want to focus on something new. Take stock of where you are and ask yourself
questions such as “Am I happy with my life right now?” “Is there anything I can
be doing besides my same routine?” “Am I ready for a change?” “Should I take a
risk and see where it leads?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remember
that there are unlimited possibilities waiting for you if you will just give
yourself a chance to explore them.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF
SWORDS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>Do your best to stand in
your own truth and let your authentic self shine through. Take action based on
what your intuition is telling you to do rather than accepting what others want
you to do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Listen to your heart, for it
is the source of who you truly are.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Do
not give away your power to others by letting them make decisions for you, nor allow
them to sway your thinking despite doubts that their way may not be best.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Listen to your own inner self and go with
your gut instinct.<o:p></o:p></div>

and fulfillment can be yours this month, because good things are in the works.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Look forward to positive outcomes that will
bring you joy and delight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As with the
10 of Coins, success is on the horizon, and this is another indication that you
are on the right track.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whatever you
have done up to this point has been part of your divine path, so give yourself
credit for all the positive actions you have taken.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sit back for a while and enjoy the abundance
that you so richly deserve.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be grateful
for all that you have accomplished and all that you will do in the future.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>What a beautiful month March
is shaping up to be!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Both the 10 of
Coins and 9 of Cups bode well for you enjoying the results of the work and effort
you have expended.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Look for abundance
not only in major things such as financial gain or a job upgrade, but in the
everyday little things that can bring enjoyment and satisfaction on a smaller
but equally important level.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The other
two cards, Judgement and Queen of Swords, encourage you to look objectively at
yourself and ask honest questions. While in this feeling-good space of things
going well, take time to look deeply within to get to the core of your
authentic self and recognize the truth of how you want to live your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then you will be able to bask in continued
joy and contentment.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When people think of meditation, the most obvious picture
that comes to mind is someone sitting on the floor with legs crossed and eyes
closed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many people, of course, do
practice meditation this way, but it is by no means the only way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">First of all, you can meditate in any position you
like—sitting on the floor, sitting in a chair, standing, lying down,
walking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your eyes can be open or
closed, or you can focus on an object, such as the flame of a candle.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even yoga and qigong are considered forms of
meditation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can meditate alone or in
a group.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />
<!--[endif]--></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Some teachers say that meditation is a state of mind related
to awareness and acceptance. If this is so, then you can meditate any time in
the middle of any activity. (See “mindfulness” meditation below.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The purpose of this short article is to give a few types of
others kinds of meditation that can be practiced.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Perhaps you will find one that works for you,
or maybe you have been meditating all along in your own way that felt right to
you, but didn’t know that it was “meditation”.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">There are many more kinds of meditation than those listed
below, but this is a good place to start if you want just a quick summary.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Concentration</i></b>: This type of meditation is what it implies—you
train your mind to focus on an object, your breath, a mantra (a meaningful word
or phrase) or nothing at all, so that all distractions are removed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This lets the mind be calm and still, which
has a positive effect on the body by removing stress and tension.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is recommended that beginners start with
the simplest thing to focus on—your breath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Several types of concentration meditation are: transcendental
meditation (TM), om, and chakra.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Open Awareness</i></b>: The idea here is to open your mind to whatever
is happening around you without focusing on anything specifically.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For example, you could focus on the blue sky
with clouds floating by, or a river that is moving swiftly in a current, or the
stars that you see on a clear night.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
idea is to be present with whatever arises.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mindfulness</i></b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One author
states that this is the most popular and widely researched meditation in the
western world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a combination of
concentration and open awareness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In
this type of meditation, you focus on an object (breath, bodily sensations,
thoughts, feelings, or sounds).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can extend
your focus to daily actions, such as eating, walking, driving, or doing
housework.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The key is to pay attention
to whatever you are doing, rather than simply acting like a robot and then realizing
you did something without being aware of it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Some examples of mindfulness are:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>deep breathing, body scan, visualization,
mindful breathing, mindful eating, seated meditation, walking meditation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Guided meditation</i></b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
may be the best technique for you if you find the idea of focusing on your
breath to be boring.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In a guided
meditation, you listen to a recording that elicits certain images,
affirmations, states (such as calmness) or imagined desired experiences.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Guided imagery has been used to facilitate
health and well-being, and is even used to rehearse successful outcomes of
surgeries or athletic performances.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Reflective Meditation</i></b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This is also called disciplined thinking, in which you choose a
question, theme or topic to focus on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Then you reflect on it or analyze it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>At first, your mind may wander to other topics, but you keep coming back
to the topic in question.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For some
people, starting out with the concentration meditation would be helpful before
moving on to this type.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">

that is most comfortable for you, and focus on the heart area.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Inhale and exhale slowly but smoothly. You
can also connect with the heart of a person whom you feel is compassionate and
loving.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is also a good technique to
use if you want to help change the negative energy that exists in parts of the
world today.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Set an intention to spread
love, kindness, and compassion to all the people in the world who are suffering.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Buddhist monks focus daily on the cultivation

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">8 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may be feeling somewhat indecisive about
an issue or problem that is bothering you, but now is not the time to do simply
nothing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Take a few moments to think
through what might be the best course of action, even listing pros and cons of
alternatives if that would be helpful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Remember that to do nothing <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u>is</u></b>
making a decision, and the results could very well not be in your favor.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So instead of waffling back and forth, or
just postponing what may be a difficult choice, just go ahead and do something.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">4 OF WANDS</b>:
Things will start looking up this month, especially if you have felt that you
were in a murky, unclear place where confusion reigned.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The good news is that you are entering a time
of peace and calm, a time of replenishing yourself now that the new year is
getting underway.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will start feeling
more stable and secure as you look optimistically towards the future, so use
this time to evaluate your goals and see if you are headed in the right
direction. Good times can be in your future, so let them happen.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TEMPERANCE</b>:
This month can be magical in a wonderful sort of way, allowing the alchemy of
change to take place. You can transform a challenge into something that will
bring more balance into your life, and you can allow yourself time to do
this.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Patience is important right now,
so there is no need to rush anything.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Moderation
is also helpful, so show self-restraint when necessary. Changing ourselves may
take time, but it’s worth it. So look for ways to bring in more harmony by
letting two completely different things lead to the creation of something new
and different—a synthesis of two elements combining and resulting in a unique
way of doing or perceiving to create a better outlook. <o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">7 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some type of deception may be lurking about,
so stay on your toes and keep your eyes open to what is going on around
you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This dishonesty or untruthfulness
could be coming from others or from yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>So ask yourself:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Am I being above
board with how I feel? Am I giving myself excuses for not doing something that
would benefit me because I just don’t want to, or are scared to?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If others are the problem, be tuned in to your
intuition so you can spot this negativity easily, and either confront the
person or just move on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This energy could
be the instigator for something new coming into your life.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: This could be a month of some ups and downs, but you will have the
patience and optimism to deal with whatever happens.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Make a decision about challenges and then
move on, rather than vacillating back and forth and not doing anything.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stay upbeat and hopeful, because good things
are on the way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Practice patience as you
make changes, bringing visions and goals into fruition; use caution in dealing
with others to detect if anything seems suspicious.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ask yourself if you are being honest with
yourself and if not, find out the source of this feeling and do something about
it. <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Flaxseeds (or linseeds) come from flax, which is one of
the oldest fiber crops in the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Linen and other textiles have been produced from flax for over 3,000
years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has been considered not only
as a source of food and fabric, but also has been used to make sails for ships,
bowstrings, and body armor.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

flaxseed (such as bloating, flatulence, stomach pains, nausea, constipation, or
diarrhea), so if you have a sensitive digestive system, talk with your medical

for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">ACE OF CUPS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></b>The start of the new year is a good
opportunity to meet new people, especially those who are positive and upbeat.
New relationships can come your way if you make an effort to get out, attend
events and gatherings, and bring fun and play into your life. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This can also be a time of reigniting the
spark of current romantic relationships by getting out of your routine and doing
things you have never done before—exciting, inspirational activities such as
traveling to new places (which don’t have to be very far away), going to
concerts or plays that are uplifting, or just planning ahead to spend more time
together.<o:p></o:p></div>

that need to be made about where your life is headed for the next several
months. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be sure to take a balanced
approach to any decision-making that is required--use your analytical left
brain to fully assess the situation, identifying pros and cons.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your intuitive right brain will help when you
ask yourself how you feel about the issue—what would be best for you, or what
would make you happy. This approach will allow you to see any potential
pitfalls that may get in the way of clear thinking and making wise choices.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">JUSTICE</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See January as an opportunity to introduce
more balance and harmony into your life. Perhaps last year you spent too much
time working rather than setting aside play time, or maybe you could have
worked more efficiently, thus allowing more social time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we don’t have fun, we may start to view
life as boring, becoming restless and dissatisfied.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Start today by promising yourself that at
least once a week you will do something that makes you smile and that brings
joy into your heart.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It can be merely
going outdoors, seeing a movie, exploring a new place you have never been, or
being with friends you haven’t seen in a while.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

but this does not mean that you have to stay in a negative space of worry and
anxiety.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is all about perception,
and how you view a difficulty or bump in the road.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you take a playful approach rather than
one of doubt or fear, you will see that the issue may not be as bad as you made
it out to be in the first place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Trust
that you will be able to deal with it; ask for help if you need it, and then go
ahead and do something to handle it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You
have the ability to do this as long as you don’t wallow in feelings of
insecurity or any kind of negative energy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>See the new year giving you the resources you need to tackle any
challenge that arises.<o:p></o:p></div>

MONTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>January will be filled with
some exciting possibilities that can increase your sense of happiness and
gratitude for the entire year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Seek out
new relationships by making a conscious effort to attend gatherings or meetings
where you know like-minded people will be.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Put a spark in a romantic relationship by doing something different for
a change—get out of old ruts, and you may be amazed at the results.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Bring equilibrium into your life by
approaching decisions through a combination of intellect and intuition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Continue to stay balanced by enjoying more
fun times with friends and family rather than feeling guilty for engaging in
play time; you deserve some rest and recreation. Re-create what you want this
year to be!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See difficulties or
challenges as hurdles that you can easily cross, knowing that a positive
attitude will go a long way.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Fluoride is the chemical that was been put into drinking water
in the 1940’s, and it was introduced into toothpaste in 1955.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Fluorides
are compounds containing a mixture of fluorine with another substance, usually
a metal (such as sodium fluoride or stannous fluoride). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once fluorides are ingested, they are absorbed
into the blood through the digestive system and collect in areas high in
calcium, such as bones and teeth.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The purpose of adding fluoride to drinking water was to
prevent tooth decay, but over the years the addition of this chemical into our
water has become wrought with controversy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has never
approved fluoride for use in water. In fact, research has shown that
fluoridated water is not even necessary, since we already get over 300% of the
American Dental Association’s recommended amount from other sources (such as
food, toothpaste, mouth rinses, beverages other than water); many foods and
beverages are processed using fluoridated water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The chemicals used for fluoridation are not pure
products but instead are byproducts of aluminum and fertilizer
manufacturing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a result, they are
toxic and have high amounts of heavy metals such as arsenic, lead, and
chromium.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">In 1993, the National Research Council
acknowledged that city municipal drinking water supplies may result in dental
fluorosis in about 10% of the population.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Dental fluoridation is a condition characterized by the mottling
(staining) or corrosion (pitting) of teeth.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It happens mostly in infancy and early childhood, and occurs in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">high</i></b>
levels of fluoridation. Dental cavities may be prevented with <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">lower</i>
</b>levels of fluoride.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is why it
is extremely important to know the level of fluoridation in your drinking
water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

fluoride ingested, and whatever is left is stored in the bones and pineal
gland. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><strong>(See Blog #11 for an article on
the effects of fluoride on the pineal gland.)</strong></i></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Some research has also shown that fluoride may
be associated with brain damage, lowered IQ, early puberty, reproductive
problems, thyroid function, arthritis, hip fractures in the elderly, kidney
disease, and even cancer. Although there is no conclusive evidence showing that
fluoride plays a role in these diseases, you should use your own discretion
when drinking fluoridated water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

countries that fluoridate its water. Only ten other countries have the majority

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">STRENGTH</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let your inner courage shine this month by
stepping out of your comfort zone and doing something different or a little
challenging.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It could be going somewhere
you have never been before, doing something on your own by yourself (especially
when you feel more comfortable when with someone else), or taking a class that
may require you to stretch and really think.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Whatever it might be, consider taking a risk and see where it leads.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">7 OF COINS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With the new year approaching, now is a good
time to just start thinking about what you would like the year to be for you.
It is not necessary to set formal goals or get really serious now, but just
start thinking of one or two things you would like to accomplish. Perhaps you
set goals last year that you did not achieve, or you find yourself going in a
new direction and realize brand-new activities are called for. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some of your future goals may take time and
patience, so get ready to make a difference in your life by thinking of them
now and preparing to act on them later.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">8 OF SWORDS</b>:
If you have been feeling trapped or indecisive, tell yourself that you are no
longer going to put up with this. Ask for help to get out of whatever bind you
find yourself in, if that is what your intuition is telling you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Asking for help is different from expecting
to be rescued, so remember that you have all that you need within. It is
just a matter of tapping into your own resources and having belief in
yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stop doubting yourself and
your ability to make things happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our negative
thoughts can hold us back if we let them take hold, and it then becomes more
difficult to get out of the self-imposed prison. Now is the time for action.<o:p></o:p></div>

You will find success this month, so stay in a positive frame of mind and wait
for your achievements to bear fruit. If you have worked hard and done your
best, then know that your efforts will be paying off. Look for any kind of
success—large or small—during the month, and give yourself a pat on the back
for any progress that you have made. You are on the right track so keep going.
Let the year end with joyous thanks for all that you have accomplished, and
remember that you deserve to be proud of yourself for any hurdles you have
succeeded in mastering.<o:p></o:p></div>

This month will be promising in many ways, so start feeling the energy of
becoming stronger and more courageous. You are stepping into your own power in
many ways, and you are on the threshold of numerous wonderful things that may
be taking shape in the new year. You will find ways to clear away doubt,
confusion, or indecision by being willing to take risks, and you may even scare
and amaze yourself by doing something you thought you would never have the
courage to do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is a great
possibility that you will be successful in these endeavors, so start the month
by knowing that the rewards you so rightly deserve are right around the corner.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Shamanism, which is the basis for shamanic healing, is an
ancient form of spiritual, energetic, and holistic healing which goes back
30,000-40,000 years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a
spiritual practice (not a religion) consisting of activities and experiences
shared by shamans from all parts of the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The shaman journeys into the spiritual world to retrieve information
that will be helpful in the healing process.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The term <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">shaman</i>
refers to “a healer who moves into an altered state of consciousness to access
a hidden reality in the spirit world for purposes of bringing back healing,
power, and information.” (</span><a href="http://www.sacredshamanichealing.com/10-Shamanism.html"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="color: #0563c1; font-family: Calibri;">http://www.sacredshamanichealing.com/10-Shamanism.html</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="color: #0563c1;">)</span></span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">. </span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The root of
the word is Siberian and means “one who sees in the dark”; it <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>includes healers in various cultures called a
variety of names, such as medicine women/men, healers, or seers.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

imbalance in the physical, emotional, spiritual, and/or mental bodies is the
cause of problems.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Therefore, a key
component to the shamanic healing process involves the shaman restoring balance
and wholeness to the patient by identifying and addressing the root cause of
the problem, not just the symptoms.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

healing is that the shaman works with spiritual guides who provide information
about what is needed to restore the patient to health.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One shaman expresses his work like this: “. .
. I tell clients this is not my work, but rather Spirit working through
me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My goal is always to be a clear and
open channel for God’s healing, wisdom, and love to flow through me for the
healing of the client.” </span></span>(</span><a href="http://www.sacredshamanichealing.com/10-Shamanism.html"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="color: #0563c1; font-family: Calibri;">http://www.sacredshamanichealing.com/10-Shamanism.html</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="color: #0563c1;">)</span></span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">. </span></span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="color: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

clients by restoring the wholeness of the client’s spiritual energy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They see physical illness as a “disruption of
spiritual energy” and help heal various types of spiritual illness (such as
loss of a part of the soul due to trauma or addiction; this healing is called
soul retrieval).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE WORLD</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This month holds promise for you to succeed
at what you have been working on for the past several months or longer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your efforts are paying off in some way, so
look forward to seeing goals met, a sense of satisfaction pervading your whole
being, and an overall good feeling that all is well. Focus on the positive
things occurring, and let them be the guide for you to concentrate more on what
is going right in your life now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be
grateful for the end of a journey that can be the start of even better things
to come.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">5 OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Past difficulties or challenges may have been
discouraging, but the good news is that you are still standing on your own two
feet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You have persevered and are now
able to look forward to a more promising future. Give yourself credit for how
far you have come, recognizing that the price you may have paid to get this far
has been worth it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let go of what has
happened in the past and how hard it was; live in the present, focusing on the
future and what it can hold for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">9 OF SWORDS</b>:
Fear and anxieties may plague you, but do not allow them to hold any power over
you. It is ok to really feel the fear, and then release it. For example, when
you are concerned or upset about something, give yourself a limited amount of
time to feel bad, anxious, or sad.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When
you are done, tell yourself that you have no more time to devote to an activity
that is not serving any useful purpose, but making things worse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then distract yourself by doing something
else, such as planning for an event or trip you are looking forward to, reading
a good book, watching an enjoyable movie or TV show, or taking a walk.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may be amazed by how better you feel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE HERMIT</b>: Take
some time this month to do some inner work--look for greater understanding
about a spiritual topic that interests you, think about what is really
important in your life right now, and ask yourself if you are doing all that
you can to find the answers you seek.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This can be a “personal quest” month where you spend some time in
reflection and self-renewal, concentrating more on the inner world. Meditate in
whatever way you like—it doesn’t have to be sitting for a long time in a quiet
place if that is not your style. Take a walk out in nature and let your mind
wander. Attend a spiritual class, listen to a guided meditation, or ponder a
question in your own way. Seeking guidance from within is important this month,
so rely more on yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This month has some opposing
forces at play, but you can stay in a positive frame of mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be involved in activities that bring a sense
of satisfaction, such as sharing with others, showing gratitude for all that
you have achieved, enjoying every moment, and realizing your ability to make
your visions become reality. You have come a long way and learned some
important lessons.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It may have been a
hard road, but you have tackled successfully some of the burdens that showed
up. The residue from what you have experienced may be reflected in anxiety,
worry, fear, loneliness, or disappointment. You can make a conscious effort to
not wallow in this negativity by doing something that brings calmness, peace,
and contentment. One way to do this is to take time for yourself, in whatever
form that you prefer. A time of reflection is at hand as this year comes to a
close.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Telepathy is a gift that we all are born with, but many
of us rarely use it consciously.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We do
use it at times, such as when we are thinking of a person and know before the
phone rings who will be calling us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So is
there a way that we can develop this ability so that it will be helpful in our
everyday lives?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes, there is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

that it is actually reading another’s mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But that is not what it is at all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is communicating with another person through thought, without use of
the five senses.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According to one
author, the word “telepathy” comes from “tele”, meaning distance, and “pathy”,
which means feeling.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Another author notes that there are many documented cases
of telepathy, and some are with well-known people, such as Mark Twain.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Some scientists who have called for more research into
telepathy (implying that they believe it exists) include Albert Einstein,
Sigmund Freud, and Carl Jung.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Telepathy requires two willing participants—a sender and
a receiver—and a true desire to want to attempt the connection.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If you decide that it might be fun to try your hand at
telepathy, there are some exercises that you can practice with a partner; be
sure this person believes that telepathy is real.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also, it would be preferable if he/she is
someone you already know and have a connection with.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Some important things to keep in mind before starting an
exercise are:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

your partner.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See it being full of

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One simple exercise to start with is given below.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(1)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Sit at a table with a partner.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> Have seven different colored pencils laid out between </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> you.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(2)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Decide who will be the sender and who will be the receiver.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(3)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>The sender chooses a color in his/her
mind and then sends this color to the receiver, in any way that is most
effective for him/her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For example, the
silver tube described earlier could be used, or the sender can visualize the
color seeping into the receiver’s mind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(4)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>After sending, the sender says
“start”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The receiver then looks into
the sender’s mind to see what color is being sent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Again, he/she can do this in whatever way is
most effective for him/her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(5)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>The receiver calls out a color.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If the color is correct, the sender says
“yes”, and chooses another color.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He/she
says “start” and sends again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(6)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>If the receiver did not get the
correct color, he/she tries again until the correct color is identified.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(7)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Do this for 5-10 minutes, take a
break, and then switch roles—the sender becomes the receiver, and the receiver
is now the sender.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">You may find that one person is better at sending, while another may be a better receiver.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">After you and your partner master this exercise, you can make it more difficult by trying </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">it </span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">with someone else, using more colors, trying numbers or objects in the room instead of </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">colors, doing it with a door between you, or even over the phone.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">There are many ways you can play with it to keep it fun and interesting, plus the more</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">practice you have, the better you will be at it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">You may also want to try the exercise with children, and may be surprised at how good</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">they</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> are at it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The main thing is to have fun, and at the same time develop a skill that can be quite useful </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 1in; text-align: left; text-indent: -0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">for those you have a connection with.</span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">5 OF COINS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because there will be much going on during
October related to changes, it is important for you to seek out and ask for
help if you need it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sometimes we are
reluctant to do so, because we think we may look weak to others. But we are all
connected, so when someone helps us or when we help someone else, we are
helping ourselves, too. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>During the
month, feelings of insecurity, doubt, worry, and anxiety may overpower you if
you let them, so do your best to stay in a positive frame of mind. Also
remember to look at all the good things happening in your life, and focus on
these rather than the stressful, worrisome events that may be going on around
you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Show gratitude for all that you
have.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE MOON</b>:
Things will be a bit unclear and uncertain during the month, so don’t expect to
get specific answers to all of your questions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You may feel bewildered, confused, disoriented, or easily
distracted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is ok to feel this way,
and others are in the same boat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instead
of letting these feelings bog you down, trust your intuition to guide you as
you go about your day. Listen to what your inner voice is telling you, and go
with hunches or instincts rather than relying only on your analytical and
reasoning mind.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">QUEEN OF SWORDS</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You are a force to be reckoned with this
month, as you seek out the truth and attempt to find out what is really going
on in world events, on a personal level, or as related to the state of the
nation. Whatever your target, you will be able to cut through all the
unnecessary and deceitful “facts” that are clouding the truth.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Others may find it hard to trick or fool you,
and they will see that you have an uncanny ability to quickly size up a
situation. The truth is out there, and it is time to step up to the plate and
find it.<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE FOOL</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The changes that occurred last month are
still having an effect, and one result is that you feel as if you are starting
on a new path in your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A brand-new
cycle is starting, and you are excited about it but also a bit
apprehensive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, if you just take
it a day at a time and go with the currents of change rather than fighting them,
you will see how things start falling into place. Be aware of any risks that
you may encounter, and be prepared to deal with them by keeping your eyes open
and your senses sharp. This can be a magical, exciting time if you let it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may surprise yourself at how more
spontaneous you are, doing unexpected things that you would never have thought
of doing even just a few months ago.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let
feelings of being free and uninhibited flow from you so you can get as much out
of this month as possible.<o:p> </o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: left;">

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: left;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">TRENDS FOR THE
MONTH</b>: During October we will see a continuation of the effects of the
changes that took place in September.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You may be still reeling from all that occurred, so seek the support and
encouragement of friends, relatives, or a professional to see you through a
rough time. And, you may have others come to you for solace, so give generously
of your time, showing gratitude for these opportunities as well as all the good
things going right in your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
will be important to let go of the need to have answers for all of your
questions; instead, just allow to come to you whatever shows up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will be a truth-seeker, wanting to find
out more about what is really going on in the world and what you can do to
improve the things that are within your sphere of control.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Explore and research whatever information
does not ring true, and be flexible if you find some of your long-held beliefs
changing.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Have you ever heard the expression “The only constant is
change?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Change is part of a universal
law, so things can never stand still.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>And by just noticing what is happening in the world today, it is obvious
that change is with us and will continue to be a part of our lives.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">On the global level, there is not a whole lot that we can do
personally to help those in another country who are going through traumatic
change. We can pray for them and send them healing energy, but most of us are
not able to physically travel to where the unrest is happening and do something
tangible to help, nor would we want to in dangerous circumstances.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">On the personal level, we each are experiencing change in
our own ways. It could be something minor, such as having to deal with a break
in our routine, or travel to a different part of the country or the world that
opens our eyes to many experiences and opportunities that we have not had
before.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Change can also be traumatic,
such as losing a loved one or the ending of an important relationship.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Whatever happens to us, change is inevitable, and at times
can be extremely challenging.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><em><strong>The two major types of changes are</strong></em>: (1)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>those that occur unexpectedly, as if coming out
of the blue, and (2) those that we have decided to make and have planned
for—the ones where we may be scared to death to take a risk but are “going for
it”. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So what can we do to accept the changes in our lives and
lessen their disruptive impact on us?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Given below are several tips that you may find useful.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Take it
one day at a time</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Change is a
process, like other life experiences, so once you realize that, you can accept
things as they come without getting so bent out of shape, you can relax a
little. Don’t focus so much on the results, worrying that you may not reach
your goal. Remember that you can change your mind, and you can change your goal
if things are not to your liking. Give yourself credit for moving forward and
doing something different.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Be
optimistic and focus on the future</b>. Realize that all events have a
beginning, a middle, and an end.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You
will not be stuck in any one phase of moving ahead or healing unless you purposely
decide to do so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Have trust that things
will get better—that there is an end in sight, that there are unlimited
possibilities, and that all things go in cycles. We will all have ups and downs
in our lives, so accept this as being just a part of life. If you are feeling
like you are in a downward spiral, know that eventually you will start coming
out of it and things will improve.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Be kind
to yourself</b>. Don’t tell yourself that you need to “get over” your emotions
or feelings immediately.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Acknowledge how
you are feeling, and if you find yourself in a negative space (feeling sad,
bummed out, exhausted, stressed, frustrated), give yourself a certain amount of
time to feel this way. And then take steps to move forward once again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> Be patient with yourself as you </span>adjust to the changing
circumstances, and don’t beat yourself up if you are not feeling completely
happy when you told yourself you would. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Find
support</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you are going through a
loss, people around you may not know how to react. They may want to help, but
don’t know how to go about it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can
reach out to friends and family rather than expecting them to figure out what
you need or want. There is no shame in asking for help when it is needed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Do
familiar things</b>. Change can cause a disruption in our routines or other
things that we are used to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As soon as
you are ready, start getting back into doing what makes you feel comfortable,
such as exercising, meditating, retreating outdoors for a breath of fresh air,
or talking with good friends. Whatever makes you feel at home and more secure
can be very beneficial.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Don’t
worry about why this change has happened</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We don’t need to always know why something has happened, and saying that
“everything happens for a reason” may not always be helpful, especially if it
doesn’t allow you to move forward. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><em>If the change is what you have
chosen (rather than happening unexpectedly), here are some additional tips that
may help you adjust to your new situation.<o:p></o:p></em></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">You will
never have all the information you think you need</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You need to do research and gather as much
information as possible, but don’t let this need to overanalyze the situation
paralyze you to the point where you stay stuck where you are. Nothing is
certain in life, and you have free will—if you find out down the road that you
made a mistake, you can correct it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

yourself</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If there is something you
really want to do (such as finding another job or moving to a different location),
it is easy to come up with excuses that will prevent you from taking a risk and
moving forward. Listen to your intuition and gut instinct—if you get the
feeling that this is the right move for you, then go ahead and take a
chance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will find a way to make it
work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Consider
the worst case scenario</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ask
yourself what is the worst thing that could happen as a result of your
decision.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We create most of our fears in
our own head, so recognize this and realize that the worst thing is not really
all that bad.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">There are
unlimited opportunities</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you have
a big decision to make and don’t know what to do, don’t think that you have
only one option. Just because you take one course of action does not mean that
there are no more opportunities available to you. The good news is that often new
pursuits lead to more opportunities—ones that would not have been there had you
not taken that risk in the first place.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So, whether change has entered
your life because of something unexpected happening that was out of your
control, or you purposely decided to take a risk and explore a new path for yourself,
there are a number of things you can do to transition to this new phase of your
life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your success in this pursuit
depends on your overall approach and desire to let the change work for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">KING OF CUPS</b>:
With the changes that are possibly coming for September, it will be important
to stay calm and composed despite what may be going on around you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will be able to help others by having a
soothing, peaceful effect on them. If friends or family seem to be agitated or
worried, use your King energy to encourage a sense of feeling centered and grounded.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Use your diplomatic skills to bring more
harmony to those who are tense or anxious.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">

<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE STAR</b>: Not
only will serenity be important this month, but also significant will be
feelings of hopefulness coupled with light-filled expectations. You will have peace
of mind, knowing that being divinely inspired will see you through any
challenges. Spend time relaxing, and this will help you spread calmness and
inner strength as you go about your day. Stay focused and untroubled, and
tranquility will be yours.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE HIGH PRIESTESS</b>:
Use your intuitive ability to see past the obvious, because things are rarely
what they appear to be at first glance. Allow yourself to be open to the
mystery and uncertainty of what is going on in the world, and to see the
possibilities that are unfolding right before your eyes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your inner knowing is more important now than
ever before, so have faith in what you are feeling, and let it lead you.
Believe in your own guidance and intuition before seeking direction from others,
because you have the skill to do this if you will just trust.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">THE WORLD</b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You are in a good space during the month, so
savor the feelings of accomplishment and satisfaction, knowing that your
actions have brought you here.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is
an important time to stay connected and to contribute to the overall good of
others and the community. You will find contentment in feeling involved and
actively pursuing your goals, seeing if you can expand them to encompass more than
yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be grateful for all that you
have as you see some of your dreams come true; you are helping to create a more
beautiful, giving, and bountiful world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

MONTH</b>: The major trend for September will be to stay calm and focused, allowing
your energy to flow freely so that you have a peaceful effect on those around
you. Change can invoke stress and anxiety, but you will have the capacity to rise
above fear as you generate serenity, hopefulness, and inspiration. Your
intuition can play a major role if you will allow it to come forth and if you
trust what your inner voice is telling you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You can feel as if everything is right with the world, despite world
events and discord, if you will recognize what you can do within your sphere of
influence to create balance and harmony. This is also a month of accomplishment
as you reflect on the goals you have achieved and where you want to go from
here. The world is your oyster!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Many of us are familiar with turmeric because it is a
flavorful spice used in curry and even gives the yellow color to mustards,
butters, and cheeses.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We may think of it
as a spice, but it is actually the root stalk of a tropical plant that belongs
to the ginger family. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">A surprising thing about turmeric is that it has a wide
array of health benefits, some of which go back to ancient times.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The main substance of turmeric that is
responsible for its healing properties is curcumin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Fresh turmeric is available at Chinese and Indian
supermarkets. A more convenient form is powder, found in ordinary grocery
stores.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, to enjoy its many health
benefits it also comes as a supplement in tablets and capsules available in
health food stores.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is even
turmeric tea for those who prefer it this way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u>Why is turmeric so
healthy for us?</u></b> Its main ingredient, curcumin, is an antioxidant that
has anti-inflammatory properties which form the basis for a variety of healing
purposes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Journal of the American
Chemical Society says that turmeric has not just antioxidant characteristics
but also is antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, anticarcinogenic, and
antimutagenic.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Turmeric also contains good nutrients such as protein; dietary
fiber; niacin; vitamins C, E, and K; potassium; calcium; copper; iron;
magnesium; and zinc.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So it is no wonder that turmeric has been used for thousands
of years in Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine for conditions such as
heartburn, diarrhea, stomach bloating, colds, fibromyalgia, and even
depression.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

benefits<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Much research has focused on the health benefits of turmeric
(and its important ingredient curcumin), and here is a partial list of
these.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, authors caution that
more research needs to be done, and patients should always consult their
medical professionals when considering turmeric for serious illnesses.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

were more effective for heartburn and indigestion than a placebo. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Its ability to help with upset stomachs has
been known for generations, and only recently have studies shown this to be
true.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One author states that turmeric
helps the gut get rid of harmful bacteria, and people in countries who use a
lot of turmeric in their cooking have lower cases of digestive problems.
Because turmeric helps the liver function better is one reason why it helps
with digestion overall.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

for help when you need it? We are all on our own spiritual journeys, and we
have a divine purpose in this lifetime. We must have faith that we will find
it. Putting your beliefs into practice will help. For example, if you believe
that you will be shown the way to finding your true purpose, then start now to
meditate on this, seek out mentors or others who can help, do your own
research, find books or other means that will open you up to understanding more
about what you are drawn to learn.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

or your dreams of what you would like to achieve. This is a good first step in
bringing your ideas into physical reality. But you can’t stop there. You need
to take action steps to manifest the dreams you have envisioned. Set one or two
goals related to your vision, and then write a few specific ways in which you
can accomplish these goals. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

things that will give you more self-confidence, such as: (1) Stop doubting, for
this only puts up a block. (2) Learn to tap into an awareness of your body so
you can start noticing when you are getting an intuitive message. Yoga,
meditation, or conscious breathing can all help. (3) Start guessing about
inconsequential things, such as who might be calling you before looking to see
who it is. (4) Think of a problem or issue you are dealing with, and set an
intention that you will find or see something that will give you a clue about
what the answer is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then go out in
nature to discover what may help you. (5) Act on hunches you get rather than
ignoring them; or when you have a decision to make, go with your first instinct
rather than second-guessing yourself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Use
common sense, and ask yourself if your intuitive answer is the best in that
situation. Also, remember that intuition gives us just one possible route to
take; it does not command us to follow it. See it as a gift that can help you
deal with life in wondrous ways by focusing on intention and attention.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Express your truth, and do not settle for anything less than the truth from
others. If you do not get a direct answer, cut through all the unnecessary
words to get to the heart of the issue. Believe in yourself, and identify your
values and beliefs. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Focus on your
visions by taking specific action steps to make them happen. Set just one goal,
and work on several ways to achieve it. It’s ok to take small steps at
first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Believe in your intuition; cultivate
and practice using it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">There is more to the heart than meets the eye, or more than
what we were taught in school. We know that the brain is responsible for the
functioning of the body and that the heart works hard pumping blood to all
parts of the body. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">However, did you know that the heart produces a powerful
electromagnetic field that can be measured?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The body’s most powerful and extensive rhythmic electromagnetic field is
generated by the heart. In fact, the heart’s field is about 60 times more
powerful than that of the brain, and affects all body cells. This is due to the
heart’s huge neural communication network that connects the heart with the
brain and body.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The heart chakra is one of the main energy centers within
the spiritual and emotional bodies, being responsible for emotions, spiritual
health, and even nervous system functioning. But what is unique is the scientific
research showing that the heart practically acts as a second mind with its own
sense of awareness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No longer must we
believe that the brain is the only organ associated with the mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In fact, it is possible that the brain alone
is not responsible for conscious awareness. Recent research points to
consciousness as a result of the brain and body acting together, with the heart
playing a big role here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Institute of Heartmath is a non-profit research and
educational organization founded in 1991 in Boulder Creek, California. It
focuses on the science of the heart and how it is related to the brain, the
nervous system, and the Earth’s magnetic field.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Their research is showing that the heart can be described as a “little
brain” (or “heart brain”) with intuitive intelligence all its own and not
dependent on the mind. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">In addition, research in the new branch of neurocardiology
says that the heart is a sensory organ that receives and processes information.
The heart’s nervous system (“heart brain”) allows it to learn, remember, and
make decisions on its own, without the involvement of the brain’s cerebral
cortex.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">There are different heart rhythm patterns generating a
continuous series of electromagnetic pulses that have effects on cognitive and
emotional function, as well as the entire body. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has been shown that the rhythms of the
brain and the heart naturally synchronize together.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When the heart’s signals to the brain are
ordered and stable, we experience positive emotional states that help with
cognitive function, positive feelings, emotional stability, and perceptual
clarity. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Learning to increase our heart
rhythm coherence affects our perception, thoughts, feelings, and performance in
a positive way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Stress, however, creates a heart rhythm pattern that is
erratic and disordered, which prevents the brain from performing higher
cognitive functioning. When we are under duress, we have problems thinking
clearly, remembering, reasoning, learning, and making effective decisions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Another interesting fact is that the heart gives out a
powerful and measurable electromagnetic energy field that actually interacts
with the energetic fields of those around you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This means that it plays a role in our interactions with others.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We generally think that we communicate mainly through words
and non-verbal signals (such as voice tone, gestures, facial expression, body
movements). But now the evidence is showing that there is an “energetic”
communication system just beneath our conscious awareness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This could explain why we are attracted to
some people but not others, because these energetic exchanges affect
relationships and social interactions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">As one author explains it:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“The heart—this beating lump of
muscle—is in a way a little like a smart phone, invisibly connecting us to a
large network of information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is
through an unseen energy field coming from the heart that humans are profoundly
connected to all living things.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
energy of the heart literally binds us to each other.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Every person’s heart contributes to a
‘collective field environment’.” (<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/04/26/unlocking-the-intuitive-intelligence-of-the-heart/)</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Institute of Heartmath helps
people, organizations, and the global community incorporate practical
heart-based ways to reduce stress, build resilience, and use intuition to make
better choices.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Here is a tip from the Institute about an easy way to calm
yourself when feeling stressed:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(1)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Heart focus</i></b>—close your eyes and
gently focus your attention in the center of your chest in the heart area.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(2)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Heart breathing</i></b>—Keep your focus in
the heart area and gently breathe five seconds in and five seconds out. Do this
two or three times.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(This helps your
respiration and heart rhythms to synchronize.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">(3)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Heart feeling</i></b>—Focus on good feelings
by activating and sustaining a true feeling of appreciation or gratitude for
someone or something in your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Or
recall a positive feeling by remembering a time when you felt a sense of
comfort or calm inside and try to re-experience it. (For example, it can be a
beautiful place in nature you like to visit, a person you love, a pet, or a
favorite activity.)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u>Conclusion</u></b>:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Exciting research is showing not only the
amazing connection between the heart and the brain, but also the important role
the heart plays in how we deal with our world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Having coherent and ordered signals from the heart to the brain can help
us live a calmer, more peaceful life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
