Be responsible for your energy

Posted on by

I’ve been working on a side project this past week that has really been opening my eyes to the way things work around us. The concept of how I perceive the world and how I interact with it is shifting into a whole new light.

If you are a regular visitor to metaphysical shops or healing spaces, you have likely seen a sign in at least one of them that reads something like this: “Be responsible for the energy you bring into this space.” The concept of this is simple. Don’t drag your crappy day, bad attitude, or aches and pains in here and expect the energy of the store or its owners to take at away from you. You brought it in, take it with you when you leave. To one degree or another, we are all sensitive to energy. Many of us don’t even realize what is happening, but we feel it just the same. How many times have you walked into a room full of people and had your mood suddenly shift? Think back to when you first meet people. That first impression you get, before you are even introduced, is an energetic impression. Your energy fields, or auras, are interacting before you even get a chance to speak. The more we pay attention to our own energy fields and the vibes we are putting out, the better we can understand the vibes we are receiving from others. But this isn’t really news. I’ve talked about this before and the idea of maintaining and doing upkeep on your personal energy space with others is hopefully part of your regular routine by now.

No, what I have been discovering over these past few days is something that is so amazingly obvious and simple, but I never quite made the connection. The energetic relationship that we have with people is the same that we have with our surroundings as well. Our moods can affect the land and structures around us much in the same way that they can affect the people around us. Before I get into that though, let me preface it by saying that what I am finding is that everything around us has energy and spirit. From the land underneath us to the house around us and beyond. Not sure about that? Pay attention next time you walk into a building or out into a park. How does the space feel to you? How does your energy change just by entering it? How does your mood shift? Even if you don’t consider yourself particularly sensitive, I would wager that your mood will be quite different walking into a sterile sparsely decorated office space versus a warm, well lit, and colorful space.

The side project that I have been working on is one dealing specifically with this connection. How our energies interact with the land and structures around us and what can be done to optimize this connection. If you remember back a few months ago, I did a two part series on dowsing. In the second part, I spent time discussing how you can dowse for the specific frequencies and energetic levels of things around you. I have used this method sporadically throughout the past couple years and though I had good success and feedback with it, I was never really feeling a call to develop it any further. However, as I have been on vacation all this week and playing around with all sorts of pet projects, I decided to put this process into a more structured system and see how it worked. The initial results and feedback that I have received have been absolutely amazing to me. I am finding numerous direct correlations between the energy of the land and\or structures and the energy of the occupants or owners.

This connection at first seemed pretty straightforward. In one case, the occupant of the house had been experiencing all sorts of electrical issues including bulbs blowing, appliances shorting out, things turning off and on, etc. This is a pretty new house and no wiring issues could be found. In looking at the land itself, I found that the vibrational frequencies and the energy level was literally off the charts. The frequency was nearly 200 units above the ideal level and the energy was almost three times the ideal. The house seemed to be able to handle this initially as the property owners had never experienced any issues. However, with the current occupant’s energy and vibration were also measuring well over their ideal levels and had been for most of their life. This combination was beginning to short circuit the house itself. Not to difficult to see the connection and the cause and effect here. The land was already overcharged, add in an additional overcharged occupant and they became the catalyst for the electrical systems going nuts. Other instances, however, became much more interesting.

A friend let me look into their home and land energies and in describing the location shared many of her concerns. There seemed to be a flood of varying emotions through the house and at times it seemed as though it was an emotional roller coaster throughout any given day. The house seemed to be attached to her in some way and when she was gone for long periods, there was a heaviness that filled the house upon her return. She had even been told by other intuitives that the house would weep when she was gone. Sound odd? Just wait there’s more. She reported to me that in recent times she has experienced major flooding of the land and multiple old growth trees uprooting in storms despite being apparently healthy trees. In looking at the energies, I was surprised to see that the house itself was not really an issue. Its frequencies were a bit off, but nothing too crazy. The land’s energy and frequencies though, were way low. In this work, I also look into where any emotional shifts are coming from and typically find that they are caused by the owners or spirit entities within the home. In this case however, the land itself was causing this constant wave of emotions. The land that she owned was expressing a sadness and fear that I had never been exposed to. I began to dig deeper into this as I had not experienced a situation where the land was affecting the owner’s emotions in such a way. I thought that maybe a past trauma to the land was trapping some energy there. No luck. Maybe it was a present situation that had the land so worked up. Nothing again. What the heck could be causing this? I opened my self up to all the possibilities and the answers began to flow.

There was a future event that the spirits of the land could sense was coming. This is an event that was to be precipitated by future owners of the home and while the end result would be good for the earth itself, the event would be very hard on the land. What seemed to be making things harder was that the land could see and feel it coming and yet could do nothing about it. It knew that the event must come in order for the highest good to happen, but it sure as heck was not looking forward to it. I found that there is a deep connection that the land had to my friend as well. The light that she brings to the world through her energy work brings comfort to the land. A bond was created and knowing that at some point my friend would have to leave the property, the land was not happy. As I put it to my friend, it is as though you are helping a good friend prepare for a life altering surgery. They know that it will be in the greater good to have it done but they are scared of the procedure. They are also scared because they know that despite all the help you can provide in the preparation, they still must face it alone.

In this case, I advised my friend to do all that she could to help calm the land. Energy work, rituals, communing with the spirits, whatever she felt called to do. But she also must do one other thing. She must work with the spirits of the land to loosen the bond and trust that they will always share a connection, even when she is no longer there. Ease the fear and help the land transition through this event whenever it may occur.

This type of deep energetic bond really got me thinking. What kind of energy do I bring to my home? Am I in harmony with the land and structure, or am I creating an imbalance? We take the energy in our homes for granted at times and often just assume that there is always going to be a balance and comfort level there. When that balance gets out of whack, we feel the shift in our emotions and the energy of the home. There is a need for us to regularly commune with our land and to show it our love and respect. Clean it up, beautify it, thank it, love it and be responsible for the energy you bring to it. We must also work to share the understanding with the land that while our bodies are temporary, our spirits exist out of time just like the land. Our love for the land does not need to stop when we no longer live there and our energetic respect for it can live on for eternity.

Throughout each day’s newscast, we are reminded about how much the Earth is being stressed. We often think that there is little we can do for such a grand problem, especially when the issue is often so far away from us. But this is exactly what we can do. Each in our own way, by respecting and loving our parcels of land, we help to soothe the Earth. By caring for the land and seeking to help it regain its beauty and grace, we each bring a light of hope and love to it. As you are able, I encourage you to spread this love beyond your land. Extend it to the land around you. To the land along your path to work. Extend that love to every parcel of land that your feet touch throughout the day. Like a mother’s kiss on the forehead of her wounded child, the healing touch does not always need to be at the site of pain. Wherever you can spread your love, it will be felt and accepted by the land.

The magic bullet

Throughout my spiritual exploration and my work with divination there are a few tools that I work with regularly to help me out. I have talked a bit about some of them throughout my Moments of Mindfulness segments and it is my hope that some of you have been able to gain some greater insight and clarity in your lives because of the skills you have learned.

I have discussed dowsing and the many ways that you can use a simple pendulum to divine answers for the questions you have as well as using it to adjust and manipulate the energies of people, places and things around you. I have also touched on meditation as a spiritual tool to help gain insight into the challenges you face on a daily basis and as a way to communicate with your higher self and your guides. In a few segments, I have even touched on my love of the Tarot though I try not to spend too much time on that topic as we have such a powerhouse segment devoted to the cards in Rootweaver’s Tarotelic.

I share each of these tools with you in the hopes that my experiences with them will give you additional resources to build the life that you are seeking. I tell you what works for me and give you the opportunity to use the practices as they are or adjust them to fit your needs. Tonight however, I need to shift my delivery a little. I have been working with some new methods over the last few months that have yielded some amazing results. So much so, that it has been a big debate for me to even speak about it as I have had difficulty fully trusting that what I have witnessed and done was a reality and at times I wondered how it was even possible.

After working with multiple clients, friends, family and other readers on this I feel that I have finally gotten enough outside verification that I can share this with all of you confidently.

Now at this point, you may be thinking to yourself; “Good lord, Matt. What the hell have you been working on? Curing cancer or something? Just tell us what’s so special!”

To which I reply; “Actually, you’re not far off…”

Now I haven’t actually been working on a cure for cancer, but I have been been working on identifying and removing what I have come to call “aura tumors”. In the meditation work that I do and the in development of my psychic gifts, I have been focusing hard on my clairvoyant abilities. Part of my work with this has been practicing astral projection and remote viewing. These practices have allowed me to see other people and places through my mind’s eye and connect with them on a completely energetic level. I have been working with this for a while now but recently I started to notice something different during certain astral trips. As I observed the people that I was projecting to or viewing, I could see some strange anomalies in their auras.

Now anytime that I view another person, what I typically see is a shadow of their physical body surrounded by the colorful glow of their aura. The aura is generally very vivid and encapsulates the person like a giant translucent bubble. However, in these recent trips, I began to see what looked like growths on the auras. Not every one had a growth, but enough did to make me question what I was seeing. What I found was that each person that had a growth on their aura, was experiencing a physical ailment at the same time. Often one that was persistent and plaguing to them. For example, One person had an aura growth on the area around their left knee. When I asked them if they were having issues with their knees, they advised me that they were scheduled for surgery on that leg later in the month. The pain and damage had gotten so bad that they could hardly walk. Another person had a growth over her chest area and told me after the session that she had recently been diagnosed with lung cancer.

Needless to say, this was blowing my mind! I decided that I needed to explore this further and see if there was anything that I could do about these growths or as I started to call them, “Aura Tumors”. I consulted with my higher self and my spirit guides over a number of meditation sessions and found that a consistent factor in all the tumors I had seen was that each person had also gone through a serious, life changing event in the past year or less. I was shown the power of our negative manifestation in that there are times when our stress, pain, anxiety and fear are so great that they actually develop into physical manifestations within our bodies.

In the case of the knee surgery, the man’s wife had recently been paralyzed in a car accident where he was at fault. The pain and grief that he was feeling because of this was actually manifesting itself in his body in such a way that he was becoming nearly immobile himself. The woman diagnosed with cancer had been the victim of years of repeated emotional and verbal abuse and had nearly lost the ability to speak up for herself due the shattered self image that she had. Her loss of personal vocal power was so severe that it developed into a cancerous growth that nearly killed her.

However, and here comes the good part, I was also shown a method to remove these tumors and kick start the healing process on its own. This is a method that was delivered to me through my guides and puts to use every tool in my spiritual tool box. First, by entering a meditative state, I am able to connect with the individual and inspect their aura for any growths. Upon finding them I make a mental note of the location so that I can discuss it with the person. I then break out my Tarot cards and do a specially designed spread that identifies for me the energetic and emotional reason behind the tumor. This spread also identifies the actions needed to resolve the emotional trauma and begin the healing process. Upon discussing all of this with the individual, I then dowse for any negative energies or entities that may get in the way of the healing and remove them. The person is now prepped an ready for the removal of the trauma and the tumor. Through a ritualistic meditation, I re-enter a meditative state and reconnect with the aura. By using the energies of the Tarot cards that indicated the steps for releasing the trauma, I energetically remove the tumor and reseal the aura with white light.

In nearly every instance of using this method, the people that I have worked with have seen rapid and measurable improvement in their emotional state and their physical condition. The gentleman needing knee surgery was able to support himself that day and by the end of the week was walking with no support. His doctors ended up canceling his surgery after they did a final preliminary x-ray and couldn’t find anything wrong! How cool is that?!

The reason that I have shared all this with you is that I am opening up this service to all of you who may be experiencing deep emotional trauma that has led to physical illness as well. I am confident in this process and I know that after we are done, you will feel the release of not only your deep seated pain, but also the bodily affliction that has developed with it. I must be honest though, this process is extremely taxing for me energetically and therefore the exchange needed for this service is high. However, if you are ready to take your life back and be finally free, then send me an email with your bank account information to aprilfools (at) dontfreakingdothis (dot) com.

Yes, that’s right.  I went the April Fools route tonight with you.

The path I have just led you down is a dangerous one. Much of what I told you about is complete and utter nonsense and I hope that many of you caught that before I got to the punch line. However, as with many scams, there is enough truth in it that it can be very believable, especially if it coming from someone you thought you could trust. The divination methods I use are very powerful and yes, I can project out and view remotely. But I can’t see growths on your aura and even if I could, a meditation with Tarot and dowsing is not going to magically make them go away.

Energetic healing is possible, but it is never a guarantee. There is no magic bullet and no one has a fool proof method of curing all that ails you. The energetic healing that works takes change and work on the part of the patient in addition to any work that the practitioner does. When we are at our lowest, it is easy to be taken advantage of. It is also extremely easy to take the quick route when the results that are promised to you seem so wonderful. We hear of people every year that get fleeced for believing in scams like this and seem to fall head first into it because the promise of health, wealth, curse-lifting or true love seem so tantalizing and so simple to achieve now that they have this “magic” solution.

We must always remember that any deal, offer or promise that seems too good to be true, probably is.

Dowsing for the Benefit of Land and People “M-o-M” 11-20-11

Greetings and welcome back to Moments of Mindfulness and week two of our discussion on dowsing. Before we begin, I invite you to go to http://personaltarotwithmatt.com, click on “Helpful Files” and print off the dowsing chart that I have posted there.  This is a chart that has been essential for me in my dowsing.  Last week we discussed the basics of divining yes and no answers as well as how to gauge chakra health and begin to manage the subtle energies around us.  Through these tools, we can gain an amazing amount of information and work to balance the energy fields in and around ourselves.  Today we are going to expand our focus a bit and look at how we can work with the energies that permeate the things around us.  We will be looking at how we can identify and adjust the energies in our homes, the land around us and our families.

In order to get a better grasp on how this is possible, we need to understand a few things first.  On a sub-atomic level, everything is made of energy.  And if everything is made of energy, our entire physical world is all residing and developing within a universal energy field.  Through this energy field, there is an interconnectedness that allows each individual particle to influence and interact with every other particle.   There are quantum theorists that are even conjecturing that the universe collapses to a singularity and expands into our known world thousands or even millions of times per second.  They theorize that in these times of collapse, the universe is recreated and can be manipulated through our intentions.  If we work with this theory in our dowsing, we can visualize that through our intentions we can affect the world around us by manipulating the energies that make up the physical things during each recreation.

Each item in our world, physical and non-physical, also has an ideal energetic  frequency that it vibrates to.  The measurement of this frequency is somewhat subjective in my opinion as it can be measured on any scaled chart.  With the chart we are using tonight, we will be using the exterior scale of numbers on the circular chart from 0 to 400.  This b road measurement of numbers allows for greater accuracy in gauging the frequencies.  In looking at objects, places and people, we need to first identify what the ideal frequency is and then ask to see the current frequency to see if it is out of line.  A frequency that is off can be the trigger for physical, emotional and mental concerns within the space.  For those who are sensitive to energies, you will understand this well as I am sure there have been places, people or even rooms that just seem to have a very off or overwhelming energy.  An ideal frequency will be tolerable and comfortable for all that are in the space and will promote good mental, physical and emotional health.

Lastly, there is an understanding that needs to be in place that our intention is not the only one in the universe.  While we may be holding a specific goal in mind for how the universe should be recreated, there are approximately 6 billion other people doing the exact same thing.  This puts a challenge out there on how we can each get our way and have our intentions come through for us.  The understanding that I ask for in this case is that the outcome that is created is for the highest good of all and serves to benefit the collective consciousness at all times.  To help our intentions, and in turn our dowsing, we must seek the highest good at all times.

Now that we have these basics in place, we can begin with our dowsing.  Grab a notebook, a writing utensil, your pendulum and the chart you printed out earlier and let’s get started!  With your chart in front of you, allow your pendulum to hang in the middle of the circular chart.  There are a lot of different numbers on this chart, but remember, we will be working with the outer most scale from 0 – 400.

Begin your dowsing session by setting your intention of what you will be working on.  In this session, we will be looking at the building you live in.  If you live in an apartment, keep your focus on just your apartment at this time as this is your living space and does not infringe on the free will of other people and how they manage their living space.  Ask if it is in your highest good to work on this area and evaluate the answer.  As this is your space, you should receive a “yes” and be free to move on.  When working on other spaces, you may at times receive a “no” and at his point it is wisest to stop your session and remove your intention.  There may be greater intentions in place or someone’s free will that is being compromised by your work.

Ask to see what the ideal frequency of your living space is.  Often the pendulum will begin swinging towards the zero and then start to shift clockwise towards the higher numbers.  The swing will appear a bit lopsided as it does not seem to swing evenly to the opposite number on the scale letting you know that it is indicating a particular number.  Allow the pendulum to continue swinging until it consistently swings towards a single number.  Make a note of this number in your notebook.  Now ask to see the current frequency of your living space.  The pendulum will swing towards a new number either higher or lower on the scale.  Make a note of this new number and evaluate it’s numerical relationship to the ideal.

If we look at these two numbers similar to electrical principles we can see how being off from the ideal can be harmful.  If the frequency is too low, our living space has difficulty providing us the energy we need from it to stay comfortable, motivated and focused.  If the frequency is too high, we can become overwhelmed and burnt out.  Once we have our measurements, ask to have the frequency of your living space adjusted to the ideal.  The pendulum will swing either clockwise or counter-clockwise depending on whether the frequency needs to be increased or decreased.

This same process can then be repeated to identify the ideal and current frequencies of the land under your house as well.  In as much as we can influence the energies of a space, other objects can do the same thing.  As the land has been around much, much longer than your home, the history of land itself can affect the energy of structures that are built upon it.  Positive and negative events can alter the frequency of the land and shift it from it’s ideal.  Start your session for the land by once again asking if it is in your highest good to work on the land.  Once you have a “yes” answer, dowse for the ideal and current frequencies of your property.  Make a note of your numbers and ask for the frequency of the land to be adjusted to the ideal frequency.

After adjusting the frequencies, see if you notice any difference in the energies of your home.  Also make note of any positive events or changes that occur over the next few days.  Keeping your focus on the positive things that occur around you will help to maintain the ideal frequencies.

Lastly, take a look at the ideal frequency of those that are living with you or that are in your life significantly.  Here we are not necessarily looking to change the frequency of the person, but rather the frequency of the relationship between you.  This can also be done with pets to help bolster your relationship with them.  Once again, ask if the work you are about to do is in your highest good.  Upon confirmation, identify the ideal frequency and the current one.  Note these findings and ask to have the frequency adjusted to the ideal.  This practice can have amazing effects on relationships that have become tense, draining or overwhelming.  By focusing on the relationship and not the person, it allows for the change in frequency to occur for both parties.  This is important to keep in mind as anytime there is tension, every person involved has in some way contributed to it.  By keeping the focus and intention on the space between the parties, you can heal the connections which will allow for each individual to heal in their own way.

These processes can be used for any places or people in your life.  Experiment with adjusting the energy of your work place, your church, the homes of friends and family or even the local park.  See what happens if you adjust the frequency of your route to work.  Does it affect your drive time?  Work on the relationship between you and your boss or co-workers.  Does it impact the level of teamwork that is displayed?  As we approach the winter holidays, there is often a massive amount of tension that is built up throughout the shopping season.  What effect can we have as dowsers on the frequencies of not only the shopping malls but the shoppers themselves?  Can we as dowsers help to heal family relationships that have been damaged?  The uses of these techniques and other dowsing practices seem to be limitless.

There are a number of fantastic resources out there for continued exploration of dowsing.  Check the web for a local branch of the American Society of Dowsers at www.dowsers.org.  Or, look into taking a class through one of my favorite dowsers, Raymon Grace, at www.raymongrace.us.  I highly recommend expanding your work with dowsing as it truly has the power and potential to change the world.

As you work with these tools, I invite you to share your stories on my blog or on the Akasha Temple Live Facebook page.  As we individually work to improve our sphere of influence, we are collectively improving the world around us for all.

Introduction to the Power of Dowsing “M-o-M” 11-13-11

Over the past few years, I have been working with various systems of divination, energy work and personal development.  I am a professional Tarot reader, a Reiki Master attuned to both traditional Usui and Atlantean Reiki, a psychic/medium, and a dowser.  By working with all these tools, I find that the healings and readings I do take on a multi-dimensional feeling and are powerful for not only my clients but for me as well.  Of all the items in my spiritual tool box, I have found dowsing to be one of the most amazing forms of divination and energy work.  It is the sheer simplicity of it that blows me away as it has so few steps, but has yielded such profound results.

Dowsing, as defined in the dictionary is “a technique for searching for underground water, minerals, or anything invisible, by observing the motion of a pointer (traditionally a forked stick, now often paired bent wires) or the changes in direction of a pendulum, supposedly in response to unseen influences” – source Google Dictionary

As I see the work of dowsing today, the invisible things that can be located and identified stretches far beyond what may be hidden under the soil.  Dowsing can be used to identify the location of energy sources, normal and paranormal.  It can be used for divination well beyond the simple “yes” and “no” questions.  It can also be used for adjusting the energy that surrounds and permeates everything on the planet.  With all these possibilities, one has to wonder just how dowsing works.  As with so many of the tools of the energy worker, science and spirituality are not fully cohesive yet.  There is no hard scientific method to explain why dowsing works though I have a few notions of my own.  From a spiritual aspect, the act of dowsing is a combination of setting specific intentions and asking the universe for specific outcomes.  It is not the motion of the pendulum or dowsing rods that is causing these outcomes.  We are simply asking the creative Source of universal energy to respond to our requests in a way that we can perceive on our level of consciousness.

My preferred dowsing tool is the pendulum.  Not only is it easy to carry in a pocket, it also has shown to have the most number of uses for my needs.  I have used my pendulum effectively for divination, healing, and energy work on both physical and non physical things.   On it’s own, dowsing has been effective in providing me with much needed insight and clarity.  I have used it in conjunction with the Tarot to add clarification to outcomes.  I also regularly use it during Reiki sessions to help identify areas of concern and boost chakra health.  In the continued use of my pendulum, I am consistently finding that there is little that cannot be done with the proper intentions of an open-minded dowser.

For those who have never used a pendulum, I would like to walk you the basics of dowsing for divination and energy management.  This simple process can give you guidance on difficult decisions and help you to manage the subtle energies in and around you.  The only tools you will need for this are a pendulum and an open mind.  If you do not have a pendulum, you can substitute a necklace with a heavy pendant as well.  The important aspect is to have a weighted pointer suspended by a freely moving chain or string.

Grip the pendulum approximately 2-3 inches above the pointer with your thumb and fore finger.  Allow the pendulum to hang down and swing freely in all directions.  Stabilize your arm by resting your elbow on a table so that there is as little intentional movement from your body as possible.  A key to effective dowsing is to keep your hand as still as possible and allow the pendulum to swing on it’s own volition.

In order to gain accurate answers, your pendulum needs to be programmed to your needs.  This means setting standards for how your pendulum will show you specific answers.  With your pendulum hanging freely, ask to be shown what a “yes” answer will look like.  Many times this will be shown by the pendulum swinging in a back and forth motion.  Next ask to be shown what a “no” answer will look like.  Quite often, this will be shown as a side to side swing.  Once you have your basic signals, you can test and reinforce these signals by asking questions that you already know the answer to.  Make sure you ask questions that you know are true and false so that you feel comfortable with identifying both signals quickly.  By identifying yes and no or true and false answers you can word your questions to get an enormous amount of information in a very short time.

Next, we will look at energy management signals to help you adjust the subtle energies around your body and chakras.  The two main signals that you will need to program will be that of removing or deactivating non-beneficial energies and that of adding or activating beneficial energies.  Ask to be shown the motion for removal and make a note of it.  This will often be shown as a counter-clockwise swing and may be as subtle as a little wiggle or as broad as a fast, wide angled swing depending on the level of energies that need to be removed.  Now ask to be shown the motion for activating the beneficial energies.  The pendulum may swing in a clockwise direction but note the specific direction it swings for you.  As with the removal, the swing may be very slight or extremely pronounced depending on the level of energy that is needed.

Using this technique with the yes and no swings allows you to identify if there are non-beneficial energies around you and work to remove them to be replaced with beneficial ones.  Begin by asking if there are any non-beneficial energies that are affecting your current state of health or being.  Ask as well if there are any beneficial energies supporting you.  Once you have these base answers, ask that any and all non-beneficial energies be removed form your energy space.  Watch as the pendulum swings in your removal motion until it comes to a stand still again.  This can take more than a minute or two at times so be patient until it stops.  Once it has stopped, ask for the beneficial energies of Spirit to surround and envelope you  Your pendulum will swing in the activation direction for you.  Again, allow the pendulum to swing until it comes to a stop on it’s own.  Feel the energy of Spirit fill you as the pendulum swings.

I really enjoy using my pendulum when I am working with chakras and examining their general health and strength.  For this, I use the same swing motions that we just identified for energy management.  Beginning with the root chakra, ask to see the health of that particular chakra.  A counter-clockwise swing, for me, indicates a chakra that is in poor health and very out of alignment.  A clockwise swing indicates a very healthy and open chakra.  If the pendulum does not move at all, I see this as a sign that the chakra is closed and in a dead or neutral state.  After identifying the initial health status, ask that the chakra be opened and charged to be at its highest appropriate level.  Allow the pendulum to swing freely as it shifts its swing to a strong clockwise motion.  Once this motion is achieved, move on to the sacral chakra and begin the process over.  Ask to see the current state of health, evaluate the response, then ask for the chakra to be opened and charged to its highest appropriate level.  Continue your way through the chakras repeating this same process until you have charged and opened them all to the highest appropriate level.  I recommend making a note of the health of each chakra as you go through.  This can help you to identify areas in your life that may need work to help keep your energy centers fully charged and open.

Dowsing can be very effective at identifying non-beneficial things in our lives.  However, as with anything along these lines, simply identifying them and adjusting the energy is only half the work.  Once you can pinpoint areas of concern, it is essential to take an active role in removing the triggers for this energy in your life.  It takes active change in your personal sphere of influence to truly effect lasting change for yourself.

Thank you for joining me for this introduction to dowsing.  Next week, I will be continuing  on this topic with a more advanced method focusing on adjusting the energies of land, buildings and groups.

I wanted to take this opportunity to share an opportunity with all of our fantastic Akasha Temple Live listeners.  I am seeking volunteers to help out with a top secret Tarot project that I have brewing.  This project will be bringing the Tarot to you from a new and fascinating perspective.  If you are interested, please send me an email to readings@personaltarotwithmatt.com by Wednesday, November 16 to get your name on the list.  Further details will be shared as the project gets closer to completion.  Again send me an email at readings@personaltarotwithmatt.com
