I remember having the belief that if I were truly spiritual, I would be in a convent or an ashram or some holy order. I thought I would be called by God to devote my life to their service and pray or meditate all day.
But, when I started getting serious about my spiritual path, I had a toddler, a job, a husband, and all that goes with living in the world. Sometimes in my sleep-deprived, overwrought, and exhausted mind, I thought it would be great to commune with Divinity day and night sequestered in the cell of a grand ancient hermitage. But it never happened. I was never called. Oh well, I went ahead with my spiritual path, even though it was not my calling.
Before I got a tarot deck, I had heard that you must be gifted your first tarot deck and should never buy your own. Well, my curiosity got the better of me and I couldn’t wait for that. I couldn’t wait for recognition from others and bought one. To my mind, I was not a true psychic because no mysterious person handed me a cloth covered and crystal-blessed tarot deck saying, “this is for you”. Oh well, I thought, I’m going to learn tarot, anyway.
I’ve heard of people being told they had some past lives as healers or priestesses, that this lifetime was to fulfill that purpose once again. Some were even quite famous! The past life readings I have had were very ordinary and boring. I am no one special and have nothing to share with the world as ordained by my soul’s gifts yet to be realized. Oh well.
I’m nothing special. I haven’t been called. My soul has no buried gifts to show me. No other psychic has ever even told me I’m psychic. Yet, I have worked and grown into a full-time psychic, healer and spiritual teacher, anyway. I had a good number of readings before I worked on my spiritual and psychic growth, yet no one ever predicted that. No one said, “you will be a spiritual teacher.” Not one. Even if I got a reading from a stranger now, after doing this work for over twenty years, they would not see it.
I wonder why that is.
Thank goodness when I wonder about something and puzzle over it, my guide will tell me, show me, and help me understand.
The important part of what he taught me about is this: I had to choose it. So, as was my natural course of evolution, I chose it and did not feel that something predetermined it for me. That was the only way I could live the truth of who I was. No one could tell me who I was. It was my discovery to make.
Even though my belief was that I had no business doing spiritual work on any level, my heart called me forward and my undaunted curiosity led the way.
Being ‘called’ to do spiritual service is a fallacy. It doesn’t really happen that way. The only thing that calls to us is our own hearts. Being called into spiritual service, being called to heal, or do ceremonies, being called to channel beings from other worlds, is a desire.
If it is the desire from your heart, it is your destiny.
If it is the desire of the ego to elevate your status, then it is your illusion and will not end well. Ego and Spirit do not mix. Ego driven spiritual people will crash their lives and burn out. They end up with some crisis or another. Some call it a crisis of faith as disillusionment creeps in. Some just keep going, digging into using their false spirituality to feed their ego as their lives fall apart. The psychic’s predictions or the feeling of being called is an illusion that feeds the ego into believing it has some grand purpose. It gives the believer the feeling that they are going to save the world.
People under the illusion that they are living out some profound spiritual destiny are only in it for the ego boost it gives them. Some feel if they don’t do a certain ceremony or send healing to the Earth, all will fall apart. They have an imperative urgency in doing as Spirit says, or disaster looms for humanity.
Poppycock.
The Earth heals herself. We can become in alignment with her healing power with ceremonies and support her with prayer, but she’s a very capable being. She made, supports and nurtures you. Even with the environmental crisis we currently face, if humanity left the Earth, she would heal just fine. So, our ‘helping’ her heal is just us trying to reverse our toxic ways so we can stay living here. Her healing power can heal everything. We need to ask her for our healing.
Spirit needs nothing from you, either. The Divine aspect of the heavens, whether you call them Creator, Goddess, Allah, Brahma, God, or the All That Is, made all the Universe and everything in it. What could they possibly need from you? What service could you supply Spirit that they could not supply for themselves? You need Spirit to help you live in this world and asking for help from them is all they desire from you.
Spirit and the Earth require nothing from you. You are here to live the life of your choice.
My guide would never tell me what to do for a living. I do this work because my heart desires to and because of that; it brings me joy.
On a similar note, Spirit will never tell me who to be with. It is my choice. If there is a deep soul connection, like a soulmate or twin flame, it is still up to me if I want to be with that person. There is no mandate about who I should live my life with. I do not have to marry anyone or stay single for any purpose other than my heart’s desire.
Living in this world is about choosing our own path and exploring it for as long as we wish. It is always good to ask for help and guidance from Spirit and healing from the Earth, but those things are not a requirement.
There is nothing special about me, or even special about you, except that all the Heavens and this bountiful Earth are at your service.
Prayers, candles, incense, and smudge. Following the moon cycles and aligning your essence to your intention or kneeling amongst parishioners on a holy day. A quiet ceremony under the moonlight or an altar set up amid clutter. Gathering in a forest meadow or an urban park. A desperate prayer after a night of indulgence or by the bedside of a loved one. A chant that echos through a cathedral or drum that harmonizes with the Earth’s rhythm. All ways of spirituality have an avenue connected to the heart of Divinity.
In prayer and ceremony, we are reminded that we are not alone. We do not have to shoulder every burden alone. There are blessings, gifts, and miracles to ease our burdens, soothe our minds, and settle our hearts. It is enough to ask through a holy ceremony or a prayer by a commode in a pub.
If it is a sincere request and you genuinely hand it over to Spirit, you will always get what you ask for.
There are some caveats, of course. Divinity adheres to Sacred Law, and they will not fulfill any request that is out of integrity with those laws. Nevertheless, understanding the power of Sacred Law is one way that will help you work with Spirit and grow easily on your spiritual path.
There is even more to getting help from Divinity than that. More ways to make your life easier before asking through prayer and ceremony. We need some things we did not even know we needed before the crisis occurred.
We can ask them to give us what we need before we need it.
How would your life be if you were provided for before the emergency or the holy day? What if Divinity came to escort you through life and helped you before the crisis? Gave you what you needed before you even knew you needed it?
One day I was teaching a class where we had a meditation led by my Spirit Guide. During the journey, we were all standing on a beach. I could see this vision very clearly. I could see my Guide on the beach with us. He told everyone that there was a treasure in the sand for us. I watched as they all looked around and picked up their treasure. Then I saw my Guide pick something up out of the sand. He walked over to me and held it out. He was holding in his hand a little Matchbox-sized SUV. Holding his palm out flat, he said, “This is for you, but you must accept it.” I shrugged and said, “Okay, I accept.” Then he handed it to me.
We finished the journey, and I didn’t think much of it, even though it was unusual for him to address me during a class for others. And it was strange to get this gift from him, but like with all my work with him, I have a wait-and-see attitude. So, I waited to see what it meant over time. I hadn’t been shopping for or trying to manifest a car. So, I gave it no more thought.
One week later, my ex-husband called me out of the blue and said he wanted to buy me a car. Then he sent me a photo from the dealership, and it was the exact car that my Guide, White Eagle, handed me in miniature during that vision on the beach.
Spirit had never given me something I hadn’t asked for before. That experience made me dig deeper into all the ways Spirit will help us manifest.
Their role is to help us have the life that we dream of or a life that is even ten times better than we could dream of having.
In other words, we can choose any path we like, live any way we want and hold any belief system. If we ask them, they can escort us along the way, anticipating and providing what we need before we even ask.
All we need is an acute awareness of our hidden beliefs and an understanding of the ways of Divinity. Then, being escorted by Spirit to make your life free of barriers and clearing the pathway to the life of your dreams is easy to do. It is also what Spirit’s dearest wish is. Spirit wishes for you to live a life of joy. Not a life of devotion or sacrifice, not a life of service or solitude. A life of joy.
Their wish is for you to live a life of joy, and their job is to help you do so.
Yet, since the first Sacred Law is the Law of Free Will, they cannot supersede your desires. If you have a hidden desire to do something out of spite, jealousy, or harm, they cannot overpower that and will not support it. You need to understand your intentions and dig deep into what they are, to know if what you asked for is out of alignment with Sacred Law. If your will is blocking your desire, Spirit cannot take the lead. Your will is the law of the land on Earth.
Spirit can only do what we allow them to do for us.
In other words, this may not work if the wounded ego is in the way. Because of all the unknown blocks in the subconscious, this straightforward request for an escort through life can become complicated.
So let’s get into it.
Although I cannot give all the practices and insights to help you do this in a single article, I can offer a class. It will include all I know about manifesting with Spirit, and we will get new information directly from my Guide.

Let’s dig deep. The deeper we dig, the more treasures we find. So let us look for what’s hidden. All of the wisdom of the ages lies within the depths of consciousness obscured by the mind of the ego.
There is wisdom dormant in the soul. Access the soul by going deep into the unconscious. It hides not to keep you from knowing it. On the contrary, it wishes to be revealed, expressed, and active in your life. It hides buried like an old pair of shoes in the back of a cluttered closet. The more cluttered the mind, the more we must dig.
The soul will only express itself with conscious practice, coaxing, and patient attention. Give it these, and you will have access to the wisdom of the ages, insights into the future, and inspiration in the present moment.
The soul is the record keeper of time, knows all you have been through, and can guide you to your well-being. It is the part of your spirit that incarnates physically in your body and holds the knowledge of your every experience from lifetime to lifetime. It can also keep you from harm and help you enjoy a life of ease and joy. It can help you to heal karmic cycles and release you from old contracts. It is ageless, timeless, and can access all of the universe’s wisdom.
It is the most potent aspect of self, yet it sits behind all the clutter of nonsense going through the mind.
Let us coax it from the depths of the unconscious to the light of the conscious.

When we do this, it manifests as intuition. Our intuition is our inner guide. Every human on Earth has intuition. It is our innate gift given at birth. It may seem that it has never revealed itself to you because you may not recognize it when it does. Many people respond to intuitive experiences by saying it was a guess, a coincidence, or a fluke. But from experience and teaching people at all levels of ability, it can become the guiding force in your life with a bit of time and attention.
The first step is to recognize when it happens. There are different ways our soul communicates with us; all are considered intuitive abilities.
*It may come as a thought in your mind. Thinking about something out of the blue that appears with no train of thought or preceding trigger.
*You may get images in your mind, like pictures or scenes that show you what is coming.
*It could be a voice or word you hear with your mind’s ear.
*Or it could be a feeling like a gentle inkling that nudges you.
Note that all of these experiences are internal. The intuitive senses rarely manifest in the physical world. Although some psychics boast about seeing actual physical visions, this is so rare that I have only met one psychic to have this experience of the hundreds I have taught.
Think of the third eye, the portal to the unseen world, as the inner vision. This is why it can be confused with the imagination and dismissed. It is your inner world. But a lot is going on there, so you must learn to discern intuition and egoic chatter.
Pay attention. How often have you come home from the grocery store to find that you didn’t have that thing you had the idea to get? For example, you may have gotten the hit to buy milk but dismissed it, thinking you already had some. Only to get home and find it was expired. Or think of calling someone, and they call you moments later. Happenings like this are opportunities to evaluate how intuition works for you. How did it come to you to get that thing or call that person?
Intuition is not loud. Intuitive hits are so quiet we can miss them. They are like a wisp of air in the thunderstorm of thought going through your mind at any given time. It does take awareness to spot them, but the more you pay attention, the easier they are to find, and like seeing the hidden shapes in pictures, once you see one, you can see them all.

Let’s get started. Take a few days to note how it presents itself when it happens. When you get stuck in traffic and realize you should’ve followed that nudge that said to go a different route. Notice when you are watching a show, and suddenly a thought of someone comes to mind without any reason. When you wash dishes, and you get the answer to a problem you have been having. These are the gentle nudges of your soul speaking to you. Take a moment to reflect on how it manifested. Was it a vision, feeling, thought, or voice?
It’s okay if you get a hit and don’t follow through. It is more important to notice that you got the hit and reflect on how it came.
At this stage of development, you must learn how your soul communicates.
Once you are sure how it works and recognize when it comes through as a mental image, a feeling, a thought, or a sound/word, you can see how often it is coming and what you are doing when you get the hit.
Taking time to know your intuition, which may even take weeks, will help prepare you to develop trust in it.
The next step is to grow in confidence. To do this, make a vow to follow it. Pick a day when things are not too hectic. Make a vow such as, “today; I will follow my intuition, no matter what.”
Then follow through. Whatever little nudge, feeling, or so on comes up, whether it is to buy something extra at the store, call a friend or check your email, do it. When you follow through with what you get intuitively, you tell your soul that you are listening to it and allowing it to guide you. This is a giant step in opening the way to getting more.
Once you do this, your ego will have much to say about it. Do not be distressed if you have a negative voice telling you how ridiculous it is, it is all nonsense, or you are foolish even to try. This is only your ego. The ego doesn’t like you following your intuition or listening to your soul. The ego wants to be the only one to whom you listen. But sometimes, the way to win an argument is to agree. The best way to deal with the naysayers in your head is to answer, “you may be right, but just for today, I am going to listen to my intuition.” You will be amazed at how silent it becomes. Without an adversary, the ego has no reason to argue. It’s the best way I know of to silence the negative dialogue. As you grow on your spiritual path, you will learn ways to heal the wounds the voice is expressing. It comes from a wounded place and can heal, but until then, allow it to be and don’t try to fight it. Yet, please don’t give it any power by giving in to it, either.
All of this should get you on the way to building your natural gifts. The next step is to call up your intuition on command and gain insight into the future, relationships, career, and more. The magic of your soul is just beginning to awaken.

We live in a dysfunctional world, and many of us grew up in households that taught being true to ourselves was selfish. We might have felt responsible for everyone else’s feelings. We may have been abused or neglected in ways that create barriers to joy our entire lives.
We carry the wounds of these types of dysfunctional relations throughout our lives. Our psychic traumas from early childhood bar the way to healing and living our purpose. But we can overcome them, grow from them and heal them. We only need the tools.
There are many ways to heal consciousness; this is the spiritual way.
We can use our pain as signposts to healing and understanding the desires of the heart. Once we learn these spiritual techniques, we can live free of barriers and blocks.
The spiritual path is sometimes called the path of joy. It isn’t easy to start it, but once you are on it, you will never want to leave it.
I’ve been lucky. My teacher and Guide walks me through ways to heal every problem I have. I am over them and have moved past some pretty devastating situations with ease.
I am not saying this to boast but to let you know it is possible. Now I want to share all that he has taught me. The shifts that have created miracles in my life will do so in yours as well. It is time to give what I have been given.
We, White Eagle and I, will share all the ways to keep you on the Path of Joy with grace and ease.
The spiritual path is difficult when we have many concerns and responsibilities. When we have unconscious blocks and ancient contracts. As well as early childhood programming that is hidden in the depths of our psyche. It can feel impossible to live in a state of joy.
White Eagle has taught me powerful ways to meet the difficulties that held me back and release them for good. Now I will teach you.
We were meant to live joyfully. It is our true destiny. We are sometimes conflicted about what we should do as spiritual leaders, healers, and counselors. Holding faith in your path feels impossible in times of lack or pain.
It is part of the path to question everything and part of the path to find the answers.
As a spiritual being, your priority is not discipline or training but being true to yourself. It is hard to be yourself when everyone around you opposes it. But you can do it.
This class starts on January 9 and continues every Monday for 9 weeks, ending on March 6.
4pm Pacific / 7pm Eastern time.
Google Meet by phone, link or app.
This will be recorded for those who will need to miss a class or who cannot attend in person at all.
Early registration price is available until January 1, 2023.
As an early sign-up, you will get $50 off of the normal cost of $225.
Shifting your belief system can change your world, but if you don’t know why you believe something, then it’s difficult to shift.
There are two kinds of belief. One is what we are told to believe. These are things like social norms or religious ideals. The other is what we experience and see for ourselves, which are things like natural and even ordinary occurrences like the sunrise. We all believe the sun will rise every morning, but not all of us believe in Divinity.
Think about why you believe in Spirit (or not). Is it an experience or what you have been told to believe?
Once you understand why you believe what you believe, you can see if it is the truth or not the truth for you. You can choose to let it go or keep it. This work is especially important for those who believe they are less than others. Even if you know this is not true, you could be operating as though it is, unconsciously.
There are ways to release and reset your belief system to reprogram your unconscious from living an outdated program, into living the truth as you know it. Simply exploring and delving into why it is the way it is can help release the negative ways in which it is creating the life you don’t want or does not serve you anymore.
As you grow and change into the wisest version of yourself, so too must what you used to think was true grow and change to embrace that wisdom.
Seekers on the spiritual path wish to know Divinity on their own terms but with this awakening comes the need to be self-aware at a new level. It is imperative to allow for redefining what it means to be spiritual and what the truth is for you.
Release attachment to belief and ask your guidance to show you the amazing gifts it has to offer way beyond belief and into the heart of Truth.
Getting messages from Spirit holds different power depending on the medium through which they speak.
For a spur-of-the-moment question, I might ask them in my thoughts as I go about my day to help me with something. Like, “help me get there on time.” Then, I allow my attention to settle and wait to see if there is any response or advice that comes through to help. If not, I know to continue what I am doing, and they will assist me as I go. If they respond in casual mode, it will be more like a thought whisper, such as, “turn right before your usual turn.” This may be barely noticeable for most, but being disciplined in awareness helps to make this a clear answer.
When asking in meditation, it can be an answer that lights up all my senses. A visual image in full vivid color, with a strong feeling of energy, communication in the form of powerful knowledge, and my guide’s voice coming through with clarity. It isn’t hard to get into this state once you give it time and attention. Nurturing your senses to grow and settling down long enough to awaken your awareness is a matter of practice. Like learning to sing or swim, it is a natural ability that needs some honing.
Then there is live-channeling. This is when I am awake but allow my Guide the use of my being to connect and speak through me. It is not as bizarre as it sounds or as movies would make you think. It is a blissful feeling that blends my mind, my heart, and my voice with Spirit. The feeling of it can be intense at times, and Spirit can hesitate to find the right words to convey the energy of the messages. When I am live-channeling, I can feel my Guide’s responses. Sometimes, I can feel when he is searching my mental field for the word that holds the power of what he is wishing to convey. With that he can choose the sound that holds the precise energy of his meaning. Occasionally, I can see an image he shares to show me what he means in answer to the question. At times, I can even feel an overwhelming love for the person he is speaking to. When I am live-channeling, it can feel like I am him. As a bonus, after channeling this way, I feel a big shift or blessing in my energy field that heals me.
Then there is writing. I am not talking about automatic-writing* here.
To channel and write messages is like taking dictation. Channeled writing is a powerful gift. Being able to see what messages and information can come through while recording it on paper can give any novice channeler the confidence to share the messages. It is written proof of divinity by virtue of it not being at all like their own writing. I recommend writing what comes through for all my students new to channeling. Write down what comes in. Wait a few days, then read what you have written. Then be amazed.
The other way of channeling Spirit is for more complex questions and deeper wisdom. Asking then waiting. This is how I get information on the Sacred Laws and the Laws of the Universe. For teaching that is very foreign to my life experience and more complex, I ask about it like a prayer in my mind. Then I wait and see what answers come over time. The answers may come upon waking up in the morning, in meditation, or just a sudden download of insight. Getting it in download form is like getting the entire concept of physics in an instant, and I must take time to incorporate it. Getting answers to the mysteries of the universe or deep esoteric topics may take days, weeks, or even years. After that, it will take time to understand what I have been given.
For example, I had been taught by my human teachers that Spirit prefers and almost always answers in the affirmative and not the negative. Spirit hesitates to say ‘no’ because it stops energy and is not life-affirming. But I had one teacher who taught the Law of Non-Interference. This is an especially important Spiritual Law that must be understood and followed by any spiritual practitioner who is serious. Yet, since Spirit does not communicate with negatives, and ‘non-interference’ is a term that holds the negative ‘non.’ I wondered what the non-negative term for this law is.
This was just the beginning for me getting immense information on the Sacred Laws, which have come to me over time. What I got was that non-interference is under the Sacred Law of Will, which we may be more familiar with as the Law of Free Will. This is the first law that I am shown and is the most important and impactful for those of us working with Spirit to keep our karma clear of harm and to keep us from unintentionally harming others.
Asking this question led me to profoundly essential information I have seen nowhere else. But being patient with when and how the answer came to me was as important as asking the question. And over time, this practice has given me life-changing insights and access to ancient wisdom.
Channeling takes many forms. I believe and have seen the impact it has on lives through all these forms. I also believe we all channel from time to time without even knowing it.
I love to offer more of what my Spirit Guide, White Eagle, will share. We are doing an open forum Q&A live-channeling presentation on Thursday, February 23 at 11:30amPT/2:30pmET on Google Meet for $22 for you and a guest! Two-for-one event! Bring a friend and bring your questions! (60 to 90-minute duration)

*Automatic writing is for those who are what I call physical mediums and have the gift of Spirit moving objects through them. Automatic writing is not a practice in awareness. It does not use the psychic senses of feeling, hearing, seeing, or thought. It is unique and requires the medium to allow Spirit to use their energy to move objects. This is not my gift. For those who are not naturally physical mediums, they can do this, but it takes a great deal of patience, and they will find there are easier, more efficient ways to get messages from Spirit.
When Spirit makes a wish, it is whispered into your heart. Then the heart ignites with joy which lights up your path ahead.
Once upon a time, you made a wish for a change. Like Snow White at the wishing well, it seemed so easy. She wishes for the one she loves, and he appears. Your wish has a feel and vision to it. You know it is possible as if it manifested instantaneously before you. It feels that it can happen in your life easily.
There are different kinds of wishes. There are wishes we make for material or mundane things, and there are the desires of the heart. Snow White’s wish represents a desire of the heart. A longing that comes from her Spirit to create a different life. Spirit guides us by giving us the desires of the heart. So, when our heart lights up with the thought of something new in our lives, know that it is your Spirit, higher consciousness, lighting the way.
The ego uses the mental field to guide us. Spirit guides the heart, but the ego rules the mind. Nothing is wrong with fulfilling the ego’s desires unless they come from the wounded ego. In this case, the ego blocks our heart’s desire through fear or keeps us from attempting to fulfill it through self-doubt. It can feel like everything is in our way when the wounded ego does not support what our heart wants.
In Snow White, the Evil Queen represents the wounded ego vying for control when the heart expresses its desire. First, she watches from the window in silence as the prince appears. Then she plots. The story of Snow White in the Disney version is an apt representation of what we go through when we begin to follow the desires of the Spirit but have not healed the wounded ego.
Snow White is very wounded. She is the rightful princess of the realm but is in rags and does not claim her power. Snow is the heir to the throne but behaves like a peasant. She seemingly does not understand who she is or what she can be. The Evil Queen, as her wounded ego, has given her the belief that she is no more than a peasant, and that is all she ever will be.
Yet, her heart has a desire.
There are many ways to heal the wounded psyche. This story represents the evolution of consciousness and how we can overcome our wounds in a spiritual way. This story is the path to healing as we walk hand in hand, guided by Spirit.
All she has is a wish. And that is enough to change everything.
We are complex beings with many aspects of our consciousness. Those aspects respond when we make a life change not supported by past patterning. The huntsman represents our survival instinct and intuition. The wounded ego’s solution is to cut out Snow White’s heart, the portal to her higher consciousness, but intuition saves her and warns her.
By listening to her intuition, she is awakening. By trusting her intuition, a new aspect of herself becomes available. Her third eye, or her psychic senses, begins to open. Our psychic senses connect to the unseen world’s energies and force us to confront our hidden fears and phobias.
That is why she must go through the haunted forest. To fulfill her wish, she must face her fears. The terror and the fright of experiencing her hidden fears are overwhelming. When eventually surrendering to it, she faints in exhaustion. But, as witnesses, we see it was all an illusion. The sinister eyes of the forest were harmless, gentle animals, and the grasping phantoms were just trees. The high drama was nothing more than foliage and critters.
Many a spiritual awakening will stop in the haunted forest and never get out of that stage. Some never confront nor face their fears. Some have an awakening yet stay in the haunted forest, unknowing the illusion of it. They have paranoid theories and fear the world they see. They have yet to escape, so they cannot witness the power of the helpers standing by, let alone understand their own power.
Living in fear of what is an illusion is like living in the haunted forest. High drama, demons at every turn, and no one to help escape. It is a painful and destructive way to live.
The animal helpers appear to her after she has gone through the forest. She sees them for what they are and gets help from them. They lead her to the dwarves’ home to represent the succor Spirit can provide once we face our fears and phobias. We must allow and trust Spirit to help and guide us on our spiritual journey to fulfill the heart’s wishes. Following our hearts is impossible without help from the unseen realm.
Whether we ask for help from the universe, the Earth, or the dwellers of the heavenly realms does not make a difference. But our heart’s desire is a call to action to walk the spiritual path and fails without assistance from a force greater than ours.
Help from a higher power is only accessed by those who request and trust it. The higher power threatens the wounded ego because it cannot control it. The wounded ego will doubt and make you feel a fool for even thinking there is a higher power. Therefore, getting to the stage where you trust the higher power to lead you to safety is a big task for most.
The animal helpers lead her to the cottage where her inner child dwells, represented by seven dwarves. They are different aspects of the inner child and her life stages as she grows into adulthood. Once she cares for her inner child, she finds joy and affection. Her unconscious aspect has been given attention and love for the first time. The experience of that healing leads to a feeling of celebration. The inner child holds unconscious wisdom, accessed by giving it attention. The inner child is aware of dangers she is unaware of, and they warn her about the Evil Queen finding her.
The Evil Queen does find her and attempts to kill her. Finally, all the plots of the Evil Queen come to a head, and Snow White goes into a deep sleep. This phase is the most crucial part of fulfilling your wish. Death is but a rebirth. When they are on the precipice of fulfilling their wish, many people will feel like they are dying. I know some even make their wills and funeral arrangements because the feeling of imminent death is so strong. Some experience death dreams or feelings of doom. The more resistance we have, the more painful this stage can be. It can even bring about physical illness.
When this stage is particularly lengthy and dramatic, it is called the dark night of the soul. Wherein all the things that our wounded ego holds dear must be eliminated. As a result, some lose their jobs, homes, or spouses. The dark night of the soul only happens when we desire to shift our entire lives from ego-driven to Spirit-led. And this rarely happens when we follow a single desire of our Spirit.
The wounded ego will make you believe going for your dream is a death sentence. But this is an illusion. We must face it as we must face all fears and illusions. Once Snow White lies unconscious, her inner child attacks the Evil Queen sending her to death. But, of course, we cannot kill the ego. It is only the death of the wounded ego. Many traditions or spiritual beliefs speak of killing the ego. Yet, the ego is necessary as long as we live on Earth. The healthy ego is never harmed.
The healthy ego creates our identity and separates us as unique individuals. Without it, we would see the wholeness of all things as our souls and Spirit see it. When we are in our higher consciousness, all things are One and cannot be separated. Since we have a human experience, the feelings of oneness must be tempered to explore the self as singular. It is an extraordinary experience to get to know the self as it is in this world. The journey into the self is an exploration only experienced through living and is an infinite well of wisdom.
To know if your healthy ego is active and not your wounded ego, consider how you view the world and get to know your beliefs. To the wounded, everything is either above the self or below it. It uses judgment and fear to make choices. The wounded ego loves what gives status or tears down. It doesn’t care if it is operating from arrogance or low self-esteem so long as it stays separate from others. For example, if you view others’ status as important or you as more important than others. If you think it is beneath you to drive an old type of car or think you are not worthy of driving a fancy car, those thoughts are from the wounded ego. Keeping you involved in comparisons keeps you from connecting to the higher mind.
A healthy ego has likes and dislikes for different reasons. The healthy ego sees others not from the view of status but as differences. The healthy ego celebrates and exalts others for differences, but not because they think they are superior. When making choices, the healthy ego does not consider what people will think of them. Instead, it will only make the choices that bring personal happiness. The healthy ego sees no other being inferior or less worthy of living. A healthy ego has no condemnation for others but instead has compassion. Persons with a healthy ego can revere and respect others for their accomplishments without diminishing their self-worth.
As we do the work on our spiritual path, our egos become healthier and more balanced. We need not heal all our wounds to fulfill the wishes of our hearts and the desires of our Spirit. We need only address the wounds that hold us back. You may wonder what those are, but your negative inner voice, judgment, or beliefs will show you. It will not be a mystery what is holding you back.
It is important to note that the inner child is the one to ‘kill’ the wounded ego. The inner child is aware of toxicity and will warn, avoid, or eliminate anything harmful from our lives. When we are in touch with and care for our inner child, we are not likely to be in abusive relationships, toxic workplaces, or have a lot of drama. Our inner child wants joy and only seeks to be heard, seen, and experience love from our conscious self to have it. Making a bit of time to connect with them is powerful healing.
The mourning of Snow White and the respect the dwarves show her keep her safe and above ground. She gets that respect for the care she gave them. Their honoring helps the prince to find her and fulfill her wish. Note that the wish is fulfilled not by her seeking the prince but by working on her inner self. When we follow the desire of Spirit or our heart’s desire, the call to action is more about clearing the wounded consciousness out of the way than making any life changes.
The prince represents the divine masculine. The union of the masculine and feminine within is a powerful experience on the path of healing the wounded ego. Although she states her wish is to find the one she loves, she truly longs for her unity within. She can then claim her kingdom and birthright and know her power. Only then can her destiny be fulfilled and the truth of herself expressed.
Every time our heart lights up with joy at something new, it is our Spirit, our higher consciousness, saying, “Yes, I want this!”. If our conscious self agrees and finds joy in the prospect of it, then we begin this journey. It may be a significant life-changing journey, or it may be lesser in significance, but know it is your Spirit guiding the way.
We can go through Snow White’s journey many times at various stages of our lives. Think of these events as an opportunity to heal the next level of being and a vital step to fulling the dearest wish of Spirit.
Knowing how our conscious self responds to the Spirit’s wishes helps us navigate all the difficulties that our true path can bring.
For this, we need the following:
The wisdom of recognizing what our Spirit desires.
To follow intuition and insight navigating the haunted forest.
How to get help from and trust unseen forces.
To know how to care for the inner child.
To have the tools for healing the wounded ego.
To understand how to unite masculine and feminine.
Knowing how to navigate and clear the wounds of the ego so that it no longer holds power over your life takes dedication, self-awareness, and proper practices.
If you want to get to know these things, I am teaching all this in a 9-week course starting January 9th!
The Path of Joy will give you all you need to know to live your purpose, build your intuitive gifts, care for your inner child, and more.
Make this year the year you know your power and walk the Path of Joy. All the details are here: The Path of Joy – Janet Kadow EARLY REGISTRATION RATE is $50 off by 12/26/22.
A little healing goes a long way! Intentionally being in the presence of Spirit for healing brings you into balance, aligns you with your desires, and brings peace in a time of chaos. We can release what has been holding you back and open the way to what is coming with this special healing with Spirit.
In a gentle 20-minute phone session, you will have a connection with Spirit that allows them to move all the old barriers, blocks, and wounds and bring in vision, manifestation, and blessings. White Eagle and I have been doing this work for 20 years, and it is the first time I am offering it as a stand-alone session. Quicker than a massage but goes deep into all levels of being, releasing what is not supportive of your path.
Spirit can take all your burdens from this year, early life, and even past lives. This powerful experience is created by Spirit at the time of your session and is unique to you. You will be given a recording of the session to work with as needed throughout the year.
I’m exclusively offering this gift as a New Year’s special to be purchased by December 31st but can be used anytime thereafter. ONLY $44 for a single 20-minute session. Venmo 6198664404 @janetkadow or PayPal janet@janetkadow.com

May 2023 bring you all you have been praying for and even more blessings than you can imagine.
When I started working with my guides, it was because I wanted to connect directly to the source of divine wisdom. A way for me to understand my own spiritual path and be guided on it without the go-between that religions offer.
I see them as ‘next to’ God. Not being God, they are easier to relate to, converse with and get help from. To me, God is a very big and difficult thing to comprehend, so having an individual being to connect with is much easier. Spirit Guides are like friends that have walked with me throughout time. With every step and stumble, everything I do to sabotage myself, and harmful things I may have done, they are there to help me understand and redirect me back to the path of ease with gentle love and kindness.
I found that my connection to receive their wisdom was also a pathway to receive their healing.
Many modalities work with Spirit to create healing, but to me, they are not more effective than asking for healing from my own guides. My guide has taught me about healing, clearing chaotic energy, and staying protected from toxic energy.
As we are now in the holiday season, I can think of no better time to offer healing with Spirit weekly to keep your energy clear and balanced as things get busy. We will also be releasing blocks and old patterns to prepare you for the coming year.
