Inner Listening

franchini2

Introspection, contemplation, meditation -- these are all terms for a practice that leads our attention toward a heightened awareness. Inner Listening is the foundation for developing this awareness. The different impulses, traits and conversations we all have within us have their own vibrations and sounds...and this cacophony is often the first thing we notice when we turn our attention inward! How do we harmonize all this inner jumble? Consider that all emotions and thoughts we have … [Read more...]

Celebrating Intuition: Introducing the Trust the Voice Within Movement

woman_senior

After watching the movie I AM, I was having a rather animated discussion with God about why such movies don't talk more about intuition.

When I was done ranting, the words came into my head to start a movement that will help people understand what the "voice within" is and how to live by it. Psychic abilities, life after … [Read more...]

Many people claim that intuition doesn't even exist, that the "accidental" happenings of gut instinct or psychic knowing are merely coincidences or things made up to make oneself feel better. For years, those who believed in intuition were forced to meet in back rooms and secret societies and to feel ashamed to admit these activities to friends and neighbors. No wonder … [Read more...]

Runestones: An interview with teacher Kari Tauring

This month, I wanted to interview someone who could give us a taste of the study of runes. Runes are an ancient form of divination, but are not as well known as other more common forms of divination, such as tarot and astrology. Kari Tauring has been teaching and living the runes for several decades. She is an important resource in our holistic community -- not only for her knowledge of runes, but also for her work with Volva Stav, a unique form of spiritual training that incorporates the … [Read more...]

Is it intuition or self talk?

ponder

Recently someone asked me, "How do I know if the information I am getting is coming from my intuition or from my own self talk?" This is a very good question, and one that everyone who is serious about being intuitive needs to ask on occasion. It is a challenge to be intuitive about yourself and most of us find that it is far easier to give someone else a psychic reading than to give ourselves good intuitive advice. Why? Because our own hopes, dreams, worries and fears tend to get in the way … [Read more...]
