I can’t handle a long distance relationship

Mandy asks:

I recently started seeing someone, but now she is moving away for several months and I am not sure what to do. I really like her and I have a feeling there is something growing between us, but I don’t think it is good to lock ourselves into a relationship when we just met. Should I continue seeing her and risk the sadness of separation or walk away now and trust that if there is something between us it will be there when she gets back. I can’t handle a long distance relationship, but I don’t want to lose her completely. I feel really conflicted.


Inspirations from Binah replies:

New relationships are filled with wonder. Each encounter provides an opportunity to learn and share. With each passing moment, emotions connect and intertwine, quickly processing sensory input into likes and dislikes which become the basis of a relationship.

Traditionally, we have relied on physical proximity to foster this growing connection. But what do you do when that is not possible? Every day, modern technology provides new channels to bring us closer together even when we are physically apart. Can these channels be enough to nurture a new relationship?

To decide the best path, you must look to the heavens to read the navigational signs the Universe is placing before you. While relationships can be enriching, they can also become unhealthy when both parties are not ready. We often find ourselves rushing into something out of fear of losing out, than sitting back and allowing the connection to naturally unfold.

Since you know that the distance is temporary, it may be that the Universe is telling each of you that you have objectives that must be accomplished individually in order to come together out of healthy want, instead of weak need. The test is to see the distance as a spiritual tool, rather than an obstacle. The Universe has given you a glimpse of something beautiful you can be a part of, but only if you continue your own path instead of jumping onto the path of another.

In the time you are apart there will be moments of sadness. There may also be moments of prolonged silence and loneliness. Allow yourself to feel the depths and range of your emotions, for there is much to be learned when you remain present and open. Terence Trent D’Arby sang, “…all lovers must have thought provoking fears” and it is here where you have the greatest opportunity to heal and grow. Embrace the fears, thank them for their service, and then release them, asking your guides to place before you any additional spiritual tools you need to complete the healing process.

Distance never separates two hearts that really care, for our memories span the miles and in seconds we are there. But whenever I start feeling sad because I miss you, I remind myself how lucky I am to have someone so special to miss. -Emily Matthews reworked by Veronica Bowermaster

Patience is not often the easiest human trait to learn, but those who have managed to master it have earned a great prize.  Allow yourself to savor each experience with this person, free of limits, obligations and expectations. Use all the technology at your disposal to keep the connection alive, while being mindful that the physical distance has a purpose that must be honored. This is a time for individual growth; a time to continue on your individual path. Not every step must be taken alone, but at the same time, no step can be rushed. When you feel doubt, call upon your Higher Self and ask for guidance. Release fear and embrace faith.


I sit in the present to relish the beauty
of slow forward movement.

Like watching a delicate flower bloom,
a great magician is showing me
the wonder of patience.
Fear surges from time to time
…wrapping his hands around mine,
it dissipates just as quickly as it comes.

My magician speaks without words.
With every encounter I learn
the language of his actions,
finding that if I allow and trust,
all questions will be answered…
all feelings revealed
when the time is right.

I thought friends were supposed to offer kind words?

May 8, 2011
oops.

oops. by calleecakes

Last weekend, I went to visit M.  Spending time with her is a fully immersive experience, since I often stay various days at her home.  Being out in the country, away from the hustle and bustle of city life, makes me feel like a different person.  We sit in our pajamas and eat, talk and play with her children.  At night, over Mojitos or wine (or sometimes both), we talk about life.  I have great friends that I share some of my most intimate stories with, but it is not the same as my time with M. M brings out the parts of me that I hide from the everyone.  We often cry as we talk about events with the kind of honesty one usually loses after high school.  I mean, let’s be honest, no matter how old you get, one look from the right person gets all those hormones going and you’re back to being a shy girl praying for a kiss.  But after a certain age, you don’t tell anyone that.

On Sunday, after two days of sharing, we settled  into one of *those* types of discussions.  I have a situation that M just doesn’t understand.  She is afraid I am going to get hurt and can’t figure out why I would put myself in the situation to begin with.  I was trying to explain when I broke down in tears and could barely talk.  Instead of placating me, she pointed out the cause of my despair.  She didn’t sugar coat it; with all the judgment she could muster (her exact words), she told me how I was creating the situation I so very much wanted to avoid.  OUCH!  I thought friends were supposed to offer kind words in times of need, not kick them when they are down?

I stood there staring at her with stinging tears streaming down my face.  As I choked on the words of defense that were trying to come out of my mouth, I realized… she was right.  As much as I hated it, she was absolutely right.  The only person responsible for what was happening… was… ME!

Years ago, I was a totally different person.  Transformation is a major theme in my life, since I feel that the person I am today was buried beneath many layers of a person I DID NOT LIKE.  With every passing year, the layers slough off more quickly, allowing me to shed unwanted behaviors and thoughts in days and weeks instead of the months and years it used to take.  Old tendencies sometimes take over without warning, but now I can usually catch them before they do any damage.  So while M’s words hurt, after a few minutes of thought, I could feel myself rummaging through my internal spiritual toolbox and formulating a plan for transformation.

This week, my plan was put into action.  I admit that I am frustrated that I have yet to completely transform this behavior that causes me pain, but at the same time I am thrilled that it was identified before I let it ruin the wonderful opportunity that sits before me.  The old me would have done something stupid by now causing irrevocable harm.

Tonight, I take a deep breath and ask my Higher Self to guide me.  My emotions and logic are struggling as they learn a new dance step.  While they haven’t yet decided who will lead, I see that their movements are slowly falling in sync.  Soon they will find balance.

Life is a constant work in progress.  Every time I think I have found victory, I am reminded that true splendor comes when conscious thought becomes the new foundation for action.  Thank you M for placing the mirror before me and not allowing me to run away when I didn’t like the reflection.

My partner is pulling me down, should I go?

April 27, 2011

Alisa asks:

I have two children with a man whom I love very much.  He has spent the last 12 years in extreme turmoil. I have tried to part ways many times, but continue to get back with him because I love him as a person. However, he pulls me down very much. He is mentally ill and unstable and refuses evaluation or any alternative therapy. He is depressed and very passive about his life. Recently, I was admitted into the University and I am planning on moving to another state in a few months. He said he wants to come and support us there, but I need a new start and I know he really doesn’t want to go because he has no drive to find work. He has a very kind heart, but does nothing for himself but work in a  liquor store. He is functioning at a very low vibration and doesn’t want to help himself. I have tried so hard to nurture his relationship with the children because they love him, but I am seeing how the depression is making us all feel low and down in the dumps. I need some wholesome advice on how I can work this out. I fear he should stay here and we should go alone.

Inspirations from Binah replies:

While your emotional center sets the direction toward love, which can sometimes feel like a random choice with no foundation, your mind provides the checks and balances needed to understand that love.  Language limits our ability to comprehend all the different types of love that can be experienced, making it seem as if the feelings we feel for another person outside of our family can only be categorized as ‘romantic’ or ‘friendship’.  The truth is there are many other levels, each one providing lessons and experiences necessary for your evolutionary journey.

After 12 years with this man, your mind understands all the pros and cons of staying with him.  If he comes with you to your new city, you will continue to repeat the existing pattern, for you cannot expect another to change.  If you can find acceptance, joy and growth in this pattern, then your answer is simple: he should go with you.  But if you continue to feel that he is bringing down the vibration of the entire family, then you must realize that if you remain with him, you are not only holding back your personal growth, you are teaching your children that this is the best they can expect out of life.

That being said, there was a reason you were joined together in love, giving you an opportunity to reach a new level of knowledge through the journey you have walked together.  Sometimes it takes Understanding in order to receive the full Wisdom of an experience and move on to the next.  Shift your focus onto identifying and understanding the love you share today, releasing the need to believe that it must be the love of a partner and opening yourself to accepting that this love may be a vibration meant to bring your children into the world and provide you with strength and compassion you could only acquire through your union.

In your quiet Sanctuary, ask your Higher Self to take you on a spiritual journey through this relationship.  Begin with where and how you met, asking your Higher Self to play the entire video of the last 12 years and pausing where a new lesson was learned.  Take note of each time you learned something about yourself, each time you shed a layer of your ego or prejudices or weaknesses.  Create this list, and when you are done, ask your Higher Self if there is still more to learn in order to find the balance between your emotions and your intellect.  Your Higher Self can tell you if this story should continue, are you ready to accept the answer?

Why do I see/hear things that are scary?

February 2, 2011

From Chelsea:

When I younger in junior high school, I had a friend over to stay the night. We were sitting on the floor in my room facing my bed talking about gut feelings. I remember looking up to see a “ghost” sitting on my bed. I looked at my friend and she had seen it too. When I looked back, it was gone. We went upstairs and were afraid to go in my room that night. It looked very dark, no light coming from it at all. It felt dark, scary… it seems tall because it had a long torso, it was sitting on my bed, it didn’t move or speak or anything. It just sat there for the few seconds. It appeared to have a sort of cape or hood on, although it also didn’t seem completely 3-d, it was almost like a shadow but more real. I didn’t see an actual face because if I did I feel like I would have remembered eyes or a mouth or something…it all happened so fast…so the best I can remember is it was dark, tall and scary.

I’d never seen anything like this before and I haven’t since. I have had odd things happen though, about the same time in my life. Things would happen while I was left home alone or while I was visiting a friend’s house. I have heard noises/voices and I’ve seen a lightswitch get turned on. It was always while I was home alone or home alone with a friend.

It makes me wonder why me? Why was I hearing/seeing these things, especially the dark ghost thing? I wonder why it was sitting on my bed? Why it didn’t say anything…why it showed itself at all?

I do have an awareness of light and dark energy, but I would have much preferred to have seen something of the light nature rather than something scary.

 

Inspirations from Binah:

Before we label the being you saw as dark, let us first walk through the events to see if there may be another answer.  You first ask, “why me?”  Text does not show tone, so we will explore two possible answers to answer your question.

If your question was asked with a tone of fear and concern, then it may be possible that any being that reveals itself to you will be thought of as dark and scary.  If your question was asked with a tone of curiosity and wonder, then it is possible that negative energy manifested itself before you.  It is important to realize that your emotions may cloud the way you interact with a being that is trying to make contact.  Either way, the being came into your home without permission, something that should never happen.  Even beings from beyond the veil, like any house guest, should ask permission before entering your private space.

From your description, it appears the “ghost” was once incarnate on this plane.  This means that there was probably a specific reason why it showed itself at that time -something it needed help with.  When two close friends talk about “gut feelings”, an intimate energy is created and you drop your defenses.  The being used this opportunity to show itself in hopes of gauging your reaction.

You have a gift that allows contact from the other side of the veil.  Given the repeated events, these beings feel you can help them on their journey and are seeking you out.  Ultimately, you have a decision to make.  If you feel that your life purpose is to help beings reach the next point on their journey, then you should find a trusted teacher to help you develop your gift.  You want someone that is going teach you create “office hours” for contact (since you don’t want beings coming in uninvited), how to establish a strong connection and what you can do to help them to cross to where they need to go.

You may realize that your life purpose does not involve helping these beings directly, therefore developing your gift in a way that helps people on the mortal plane instead.  This does not mean that you have to completely shut off your connection, it just means that you must be firm in informing beings that they should go to the light or seek someone that can help get them there.

Light and darkness are spectrums of one another.  Without being in the room that day, it is impossible to understand why the being chose to contact you.  If you felt it was dark, then its energy did not vibrate in harmony with yours and it is best that you did not initiate further contact.  If it happens again before you learn to work with your gift, create a protective bubble of pure light around you, beam love energy to the being and tell it firmly to go into the light.

The choice of how to proceed belongs only to you.  Commune with your Higher Self and determine the road that feels right.  Your wishes will be respected.

Is there such a thing as a real friend?

January 4, 2011

From MaryAnn:

I used to think I had many friends, but lately I am not so sure those are real friends.  I don’t hear from them for months and then when something goes wrong in their lives, they call me and I bend over backwards to help, but when I call them with a problem or just to say hi, they either don’t respond or are too busy to talk.  Do real friends really exists and how do I get some of them?

 

Inspirations from Binah:

The definition of “real” in friendship is as fluid as a running stream.  Each person will have their definition, one just as valid as the other.  What you seek is a balanced friendship where your definitions match, and that will require you to know what is important to you and act accordingly.

Before releasing any of your existing relationships, you should make a list of what friendship looks like to you.  Spend an evening alone watching movies that represent friendship.  You can watch just your favorite parts or the whole film, what is most important is to write down all the behavior and feelings you want in your own friendships.

Take this list and over at least three days expand on it based on your interactions with friends.  Did you leave anything out?  Are there things that are more important than others?  Remember that you can only control your own behavior, therefore focus your energy on how you want to act and feel in the relationship.

On the following Tuesday, set aside some time for deep meditation.  Prepare your sacred space, call in your Higher Self and create a red sphere of light around you.  Have your list before you and a clean page where you can write more.  Within the red sphere, ask yourself what blocks or attachments are holding you back from creating the types of friendships you want.  Explore why you keep attracting unbalanced relationships – what do you need to learn or release in order to attract healthy, balanced friendships?  Record all that you receive.

With this information in hand, you can work on what you need in order to heal these patterns.  This may take time and require external help, for there may be several layers to work through.  For each item on the list, when you are ready to release it, on a Thursday sit in your sacred space with your Higher Self and feel a blue cube around you.  Breath in the blue radiant light, filling you as if you were a crystal vessel.  Shine this light out from within you in every direction, extending beyond the walls of the cube in shades of blue and green.  Thank the pattern for its service and feel it transmute into pure energy that fuels your healing.

Repeat this process as often as necessary in order to remove obstacles and patterns that keep you from finding “real” friendship.  With each transformation, consciously ask to only attract relationships that are healthy for you.  Let slip the friendships that no longer serve and nurture the new ones that blossom.  Soon you will have a full garden!

What does my gift mean and how do I make it stronger?

December 31, 2010

From Frankia:

I have always been able to “read” people but there have been a few instances where I’ve felt its more than that.  The first was when I was in high school roughly 14 years old. I had gotten on the bus that morning and as I passed this boy I had never spoken to or noticed before I had this overwhelming feeling something was wrong and so I sat next to him and asked him what was wrong. He of course looked at me crazy and said nothing but when I looked into his eyes I felt dark hollow feeling and I just knew he had done something potentially lethal. I badgered him some and he finally told me that he had taken 12 Ritalin just before getting on the bus so he could die. I talked him into going to the nurse where the ambulance was called and he was rushed to the hospital to get his stomach pumped. I saved his life that day. Another instance I told some girl about her family life in great detail which the info just came to me by looking in her eyes. She was mortified that I knew so much and didn’t speak to me after that. Lol… I have used tarot cards to give my friends readings which resulted in being dead on. What does this all mean? If I have a gift how can I make it stronger? Is there anyone who would be my mentor? Thank you taking the time to reply…..

 

Inspirations from Binah:

You have a beautiful gift; the question lies not in what it means, but instead, in what want to do with it.  Some people feel called to work through the spiritual realms, becoming energy healers or providing guidance, yet others choose to channel their gifts through more traditional professions.  Imagine using your ability in a medical practice or as a social worker.  No matter what path you choose, remember that your power is there to help you achieve your goals, thus empowering to help those around you.

As the new year begins, this is a great time to set intentions and begin a journey.  Use this energy to step onto the path of self-discovery -to uncover your life purpose and develop your talents.  As the clock swings past midnight, ask your Higher Self to show you the path and consciously step into your new role as student.  You are a disciple of the world, seeking instruction from the physical and spiritual, then bringing that into yourself for integration and application.

From within your meditative world, speak openly with your Higher Self about the learning you seek.  Write down what you wish you accomplish and then explore what it will take to get you there.  Think about fears you need to release, knowledge you have yet to acquire and the emotional resources to get you there.

With your intentions set, you have only one more thing to do: be open.  Answers will come in many forms, so it is important to capture all messages and take them into meditation for understanding.  A friend may offer you a book, you may come across a course you wish to take, online browsing may bring you to the website of a fantastic teacher… even a simple conversation in the check-out line of the supermarket may spark a new piece for you to explore.

As the old saying goes, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”  Declare yourself ready to discover how to develop and use your talents in your life journey and soon you will realize that your guides are walking beside you.

I am overwhelmed with messages, help!

December 7, 2010

From Acorn:

The situation that I am having is that once I open myself up to channel it doesn’t take long for me to become totally overwhelmed with messages. How do I control the intensity and shut it off when I’m ready or have been exhausted? Tonight I went to an energy center and opened myself up and for about 2 hours, receiving constant messages (and drawings).  From whom or from how many I don’t know, but time came when I needed to leave and compose myself.  Even now there are still energies that are trying to come through.  What do I do?

In love and light.

Inspirations from Binah:

Being overwhelmed is a common occurrence when you first begin to channel.  It is easy to become so excited about the messages and contact, that you forget to use your power to modulate what comes in.  When you proceed as you are, with no restraints, there is a real danger in doing damage to all levels of your body: physical, emotional and spiritual.

When you open yourself to channel, you put a heavy burden on your physical self.  The human body was not intended to hold that much light, therefore you must take extra care of yourself through healthy diet and exercise.  Eat a hearty meal before the session to give you the energy needed to maintain your connection, nourishing your physical self.  As you begin, set your intention to modulate your vibration up to match that of the being you are going to communicate with.  Doing this will allow your body to slowly amp up its resonance instead of shocking the body with a giant leap.  When you are done, take ample time to rest, giving your body what it needs to return back to its earthly vibration.

On a spiritual level, a word of caution against opening yourself to anyone and anything.  There is duality on every plane, and with Light comes Dark.  While there are many beings here to help humanity on its journey, their intentions may not be aligned with your own.  This is not to say that they will necessarily hurt you on purpose, but in their quest to communicate, they may not take into consideration that you are a human being with specific physical constraints.

It is recommended that you work with your Higher Self to identify a being, or set of beings, that you will regularly communicate with.  Set your sacred space to begin your session and instead of opening yourself fully, take a minute to commune with your Higher Self.  Ask for guidance on identifying who you should be channeling and let your Higher Self formally introduce the appropriate being.  Speak directly to this being and determine how you want the relationship to flow.  For example, let the being know that you will only allow channeling when you have set your sacred space and called in the energy necessary to protect your physical self.  If the being needs to speak with you outside of this time, s/he can work with your Higher Self to pass on the message, so you have time to prepare your body for the transmission.

The beings you channel may change over time, but the protocol should always be the same.  Make a connection with the being first through your Higher Self, determine how you are going to communicate, and then enjoy a free exchange of information.  If at any time you feel that your agreement is not being honored, kindly tell the being that you can no longer connect and ask him/her to go to the Light.  Your intentions will be honored and you can move on to work with another being.

May your experiences be filled with much learning and knowledge!

I am in love, I feel trapped, I need to move on…

November 18, 2010

From Dwayne:

I have a problem and I am seeking some advise. I’m in love with this woman and six months ago I moved way up north to work for the government. She keeps telling me we will be together soon but all she does is drink and party all the time. She doesn’t work and hasn’t worked for many years. She expects me to pay her bills and send her money everyday. We are not married nor do we have children together. I’m confused, I feel trapped, and really ultimately I want to let her go with unconditional love and move on with my life. Any advise in this matter would be soo appreciated and grateful for.


Inspirations from Binah:

Cutting the cords from a relationship is often very difficult. Through the years, we create bonds that are mixed with emotion, expectations and hope. It is good that you recognize the need to move on, for there is no way you are going to change her behavior. Now is the time to focus on your personal healing and growth.

Begin by consciously choosing to cut the etheric bonds. Create a sacred space and call upon your Higher Self to guide you. Use Jasmin or Nag Champa incense to invoke love energy. Your goal is not to hurt her, but to gently step away from the relationship. Place the incense before you and using the index and middle finger of your right hand, cut the cords that connect you. Take it slow, scanning for any energetic attachments. When you feel one, swipe your fingers across them in a decisive cutting motion. Once all the cords are severed, smudge yourself with the incense to cleanse and heal the cuts. Ask your Higher Self and guardian angels to help you through this healing process, transforming the pain into unconditional love from the purest source.

Even after the attachments are severed, there are going to be moments of longing. The relationship took time to grow, and it will take time to transform into a beautiful memory. Use Flower Essences to help you through this time of transition. Make a tincture using a combination of: Beech – Centaury – Chestnut Bud – Heather – Pine – Star of Bethlehem

To make the tincture, fill a 30ml application bottle with fresh water. Add between two to four drops of each essence. Take 4 or so drops on the tongue several times a day (minimum of four) until you have consumed the bottle. You can repeat the process a second time if you need more to get you through it, changing the combination of essences used if you feel called to do so.

In time, your memories of the relationship will bring a feeling of joy and the understanding that what once was, can no longer be. In is in that moment, that you will spread your wings and once again take flight, fully open to the endless possibilities before you.

Should I change my name?

November 15, 2010

From Domanique:

I’m planning on marrying soon! Whoot! But then comes the big question for me of changing my name. Can you advise? 

I was born Domanique , and in recent years I’ve dropped off my last name (everything except for legal documents/pay/etc). I don’t know my father, and don’t feel attached to his name. But I like the sound of it. It’s very authoritative. I am consider changing it to Domanique . Which feels like it falls off at the end. Perhaps I’m being too sensitive. 

Anyway, I thought I’d ask you if you had any insights. I’m a little too close to the experience to remove my emotions from my sight. 


Inspirations from Binah:

A name is a sonic code that connects you to energies given to you at birth. When we take on a new name, we consciously modify, augment and negate those energies as necessary. This is an important decision that will affect many aspects of your life.

You were born with a name number of 6. Nurturing and family oriented, this number is willing to sacrifice herself for the welfare of others. If you are in balance, these sacrifices will be done happily, because you know that the beauty that will come from them far outweighs what was given up. If you are unbalanced, these sacrifices will be done begrudgingly and will weigh heavily on you. You will expect others to notice, and when you receive nothing in return, will be bitter and angry.

Being a person who helps and comforts those in need, you find your home life extremely rewarding. You tend to worry about everyone because you view yourself as an extension of the family unit, thinking more in “we” than “I”. Yet it is your extreme compassion and power to find balance that allows you to fix most problems you encounter.

If you were to change your name, your new name number would be 4. This is a number of foundation and order, providing you will incredible energy to persevere against insurmountable odds. Skills acquired are concrete and down-to-earth, creating a common sense approach. Faithful and honest, when a 4 expresses, it comes from a deep desire to help and do the best job possible.

Of course, all light has a shadow and the 4 is prone to becoming too rigid and seeing negativity when looking for truth. In trying to do a good job, you may invoke a bossy attitude, getting caught up in the details. Looking at the big picture and seeing everyone’s contribution will help mitigate this tendency.

Armed with this new data, you must look deeply within and see the person you have been, who you are today and who you want to become. All numbers have positive and negative traits, the question is what best complements the person living within you. Your Higher Self can guide you through this since she represents your most elemental power – she is you in every essence.

To discover which name works best for you, you can work with a type of skrying. For this, you will need a dry-erase marker, a mirror mounted on a wall, a notebook, writing instrument, and the ability to sit in front of the mirror and write without having to look down.

Set your sacred space and call in your Higher Self and guides. Sit comfortably in front of the mirror with pen and paper ready. At eye level, draw a hexagon (six sided figure) with the dry-erase marker on the mirror so that when you look at your face, you see it through the shape. When you are ready, say your old name and gaze into the mirror through the hexagon. Write everything that you see and sense.

When you are done, erase the hexagon and draw a square or rectangle. Repeat the exercise saying the new name.

Sit in your sacred space and ask your Higher Self to guide you as you review all that you have received. Which name augments your Spiritual Toolbox with what you need for your life journey? Which one resonates with your central power source, adding fuel to the fire within?

When you are done, thank your Higher Self and guides for their help in making this decision. Whichever name you choose, remember that there will always be an aspect of that 6 within you, for you came into this world with certain contracts and the 6 provided the tools needed to get you there.

Finalize your choice in sacred ritual, proclaiming to the Universe who you are. May you feel empowered every time your name is spoken!
