What if the naysayers are right? What if there is no magic, no spirit, no point? What if LOVE is a commodity,to be bought and sold to the highest bidder, and worth is measured by dollars and cents? What then?

My personal, emotional response is that I would be nothing. Worse, actually, than No Thing: I will have become a burden and a disgrace. And, as I have forged my way on this stubborn, delusional path I've wandered, many have followed. Am I now responsible for their fate? Have I deceived them, taken advantage of their belief in me?

I clearly have more questions than answers today. My God, Love, will again win out over fear, eventually...

In rereading my previous blog; "Differentiating Between Spirit Guides and Others", I realize that between the white and the black of high frequency compared to low frequency, there is a whole spectrum of variables! The last paragraph of the blog post is absolutely true:

The continuum mostly consists of the in between of the poles, and where most of us vibrate most of the time.

The noble Spirit of Love is palpable, and above all scrutiny. The experience of this connection is the highest Truth, a surging sensation of numinous rapture, is undeniable and metabolically altering; what I call a Joygasm. We, in human form, can not maintain this ecstasy for more than moments, but once we have, we know the indescribable, unmistakable powerful vibration of Love. The sensation courses through the lay lines of a geometry sacred and sublime, awakening an awareness of our connection to all that is, in Truth and Light.

The lowest frequency at the opposite pole is in the apparent darkness, and in the absence of Light. It is an experience of literal despair, as in the root meaning of the word: Middle English despeiren, from Anglo-French desperer, from Latin desperare, from de- + sperare to hope; akin to Latin spes hope. To despair is to be cut off from hope. The Hope is always there, one with Light and Love. To feel separate of it is a devastating illusion.

Big Stuff! Mind blowing, in actuality, because the intellect has no thing to do with it. Christians describe the first end of the continuum as the state of being filled with the Holy Ghost, and I agree with one enormous minutiae: we are always filled with the Holy Spirit of Love! The ecstatic state is experienced when our heart is open to the actual, palpable reality of what our soul, singular and collective, is. Once this occurs, the antennae is attuned, and able to detect the pulse of the flow. This is the highest frequency, beyond the bounds of measurement. This is beyond the rhyme and reason, the method and the madness, the song and the dance. It is beyond doubt. The other end is described as hell, and in this ascertation, Hell is an accurate depiction. In the perceived absence of Light and Love, Fear, and it's effects, a 'hell' can be experienced as a place, as well as a state of mind.

It is a bit trickier to discern all the space in the middle, where most of us are, most of the time. Medium frequencies are full of subtleties. Beginning with intention, which is, after all, where it all begins. A person and/or entity can have the very best of intentions, and not be tapped in to the highest frequency. We are each a filter, with our own preference and bias. We, on our every day best, are all vibrating at a medium frequency. When we choose to make Spirit our avocation, as healers and readers and metaphysicians, we compromise the integrity of the clean feed by necessity. We must be vigilant about the tendencies of our own filter. Our prejudice and preference color our output. We need to remember the ecstatic state, free of time, space and relativity. If we catch ourselves during a reading taking on traits of urgency in the physical sense, we know the feed has been compromised.

We are all Medium Frequency beings. The goal of Lightworkers is to be vigilant in our awareness of our specific tendencies. We strive to create the least interference as channels of the love. Mediums are the conduits between spirit and the living. Lightworkers bring light to the shady places. Healers allow wellness to overtake pain and dis-ease. In all these good works, the simple and poignant underlying common denominator is the awareness that the Spirit Light is all ways shining and all is well and whole and healed. It is our job to bring our clients to this reality with humility and grace. To do so, we must minimize the affect of our filter on the content of the flowing message.

If, during a reading, the information becomes scolding, even and especially in a maternal voice, you can be sure it's your filter. Everyone has their own karma, and all of the intricate choices that they've made contributes to their lesson. The highest frequency is eternally patient and unconditionally accepting and loving. An edge of urgency about outcomes, goals, timetables, with a tone of judgment, it is not sourced from the highest frequency. Unchecked medium frequency can be appropriate in many nonspiritual forms of counseling when it is clear the criticism is coming from the opinions a human counsel, and not from a high frequency spirit and certainly not an angel! If an individual is full of despair, and feeling cut off from the Light, the admonishment in a reading may support their feelings of unworthiness, leading to detriment and possibly disaster. A recipient of a such reading, having been chastised and belittled, will feel more alienated from the Light! The result, besides the obvious inaccuracy, is quite the opposite of the purposes of a Lightworker.

The pure feed of Spirit is without judgement, and as it passes through us, we interpret the information. We must guard against the tendency to move out of accordance. The highest entity recognizes the myriad intricacies of each of us in the vast, vibrant collective, and the grace for which each of us yearn. The revelation of our souls is like the blooming of an exquisite rose, petal by petal. The process is not a rush job, and ultimately will join in a glorious, endless bouquet of Light and Love. If it takes a hundred life times, amen, so be it.
 

I have come to believe part of my purpose in this incarnation is to encourage people to consider walking a path guided by Spirit, in Light and in Love. Knowing and interacting with our Spirit Guides is the most provocative and exhilarating means of becoming aware of our connection and awake with our eyes wide open to take in the wonder of our shared and multifaceted luminous Light. In short, to Shine On!

The dilemma I have, is helping those searching to differentiate between all the stuff that they are finding! Years ago, when I first ventured on this path of the esoteric, I held absurd beliefs: that all disincarnate voices are wise and loving and truthful, that all psychics are of the Light, and that those who claim to be healers, mediums, psychics, readers, etc., are necessarily of the greater good and above ego. Quite the contrary! Those who are ego driven (incarnate or not) flourish in this environment. We eager seekers provide playmates in what is a virtual playground for the arrogant and low frequency beings!

So, how does one differentiate? Luckily, and I believe not haphazardly, there are a few bright and fluttering warning flags. Firstly, if a psychic claims to "always be right", their filter is one of ego, and their information is tainted, at the very least. If you are told what to do, how to do it, in an insistent, bossy way, this is in no way a high frequency being of Light! A true Spirit Guide, speaking directly or through a psychic, will never dominate or demand. Our Free Will is sacred, and a being of Light will nudge, and encourage, and GUIDE, but never, ever bulldoze. If the information is threatening, "you must do this, that, and the other thing, or something nasty will happen", that is so much manipulative malarky, and absolutely not the words of a Higher Frequency Being of Light and Love! Also, one who is guided by lower frequency beings will often plagiarize. Creativity by it's very nature, is of the highest frequency. A lower entity masquerading as a spirit guide has cut itself off from the Spirit of Creativity. Another sign of an ego based entity is the exhibition of worldly greed. Their desire to be acknowledged and admired is extreme, and demonstrates their lack of awareness of their connection to all that is. Phony guides will discuss monies. When an accounting of actual dollars and cents is discussed, you can be sure you've invoked something measly and greedy. A High Being, like a Spirit Guide will speak in broad, symbolic terms of abundance and prosperity and wealth, far beyond our currencies. As humans, we each have our own inner Daffy Duck ("I may be a coward, but I am a greedy little coward!"), but, if we are honest with our selves, we know when our duck is being stroked.

Keep in mind, that the psychic/ reader/channeller before you, may not be consciously aware that their guides are phonies. Question them to encourage them to question themselves and their alliance. That individual is suffering by the anguish of turning away from Light and Love. When questioned, they will likely become very agitated and defensive, broadcasting blame far and wide. Brace yourself, and keep at it, and you may heal the 'healer'. Turn a mirror on the display and allow the possibility for reflection and recognition.

Lastly, and most importantly, you will know the voice and presence of truth by the resonance of your own inner response. The vibration of a noble Spirit is palpable, and is One with our own highest vibration. Our heart chakras will glow and hum in an unmistakeable harmony. There is no mistaking when the connection is of Grace; it is certainty beyond doubt, and it is available to us all.




I've included this guidance from Anna Sayce's blog, 'Psychic but Sane':

Gratian and Other Holy Ghosts

I hear voices. I’ve never written that plain. I hear voices, and see glimpses and feel the wispy touch of Spirit- and every shred of my works owe a debt of gratitude to this phenomenon. Every word and phrase I smith, every elfin countenance I draw is sourced from this font.

Inspiration is literally the breathing in of Spirit. If I have created beauty through my faerie tales, the credit is Spirit’s.

One such calls himself Gratian. He has appeared in my dreams and spoken audibly and capably in my waking. I quote him directly, and feel the need to give glory to the old monk. He lived in the twelfth century, a brilliant catholic juror. He compiled the Decretum, or the Concordia Discordantium Canonum. I am honored to be his conduit, and as he has taught me, Love is Honor.

I write this with trepidation. The benign tarot cards have caused a bit of an uproar among individuals self-righteous and evangelical of my small community. I waited as long as I could. My children are quite grown, my personal status free, so, the time of truth and gratitude is presented.

I thank God every day for the wonder of creativity, and the joy of expression.
As of this moment, I am outing myself. All that I am, and all that I create, I owe to the Grace of Spirit.

Faeries, Mermaids, and Other Mythic Beasties: it is my belief that they are all of the Realm of Faerie; the merfolk, dragons, sylphs, gnomes, satyrs and the rest and they collectively fulfill the human heart’s cry for Myth. It began when we began, back in the caves, in the womb of Mother Earth, under the watch of Father Sun. It began with our witness of fire, water and wind. Our intimate relationship with the elements birthed mythology, and mythology birthed humanity. It began with our first question, and the sound of that first question voiced, reverberates still.

I have been told these denizens are imaginary, yet they have been my companions and muses since childhood. I wander there freely, into the realm of Faerie and fraternize and frolic with the sylphs and undines, the gnomes of gnosis and the salamanders of fire. They inhabit my tarot deck, and your poker deck, and the psychology books. They live in my faerie tales, my art, my dreams and my imagination. I could live without them, although I would not relish a life void of wonder and spirit
