  • BUTTERFLIES FROM PRINCE – FUNNY STORY

    As I’ve said inn earlier posts, whenever there is something I want confirmation of, I ask for signs. I ask for very specific signs so that it can not be mistaken. I assign a meaning to it as well. I find that people don’t ask for specific signs and they start interpreting everything by projecting their bias onto what they see. This is why I am specific.

    A week before my trip to Europe, I asked Prince for a sign in the form of a butterfly. I wanted confirmation about something that  I was sensing about the future. Two days went by with no sign and suddenly I was getting butterflies all over my social media. Butterfly shoes, accessories and home decor started streaming through my Instagram feed. Then I would see an unreleased Prince song show up in my YouTube feed and Prince is singing “butterfly” in his lyrics (the is called Mama, but it has since been deleted from YouTube). And if that wasn’t enough, I see a movie featured on Gaia TV called The Butterfly, which turned out to be a French movie. The plot takes place in France about a little girl who goes to the Alps (which was where I was heading!) in search of butterflies. The part abut the movie that made this sign unmistakably Prince was that the character of the little girl was 9 years old, a Gemini, born in the year of the Dog, and played basketball. Well, Prince is a 9 Life Path in Numerology, a Gemini, born in the year of the Dog, and loves to play basketball. I just could not believe how it was even possible to receive a sign this specific.

    When I arrived in France, I saw real butterflies fluttering around. My friend would point them out to me, and even went as far to to try and catch them on her hand to show me. During my time in Annecy, I wandered the streets in an attempt to walk to the lake. But it was the wrong way. As I walked back to find my way, two women approached me. One asking if I was Chinese. I said “yes”. As she become so excited, she started to speak Mandarin to me. I had to calmly stop her and tell her that I only spoke Cantonese. We laughed and started a conversation. Suddenly, I saw where the direction of the conversation was going- they were Jehovah Witnesses! I have had previous encounters, so I know how to spot them. “Do you know that there is a paradise in Earth that is coming?”, she asks. I respond, “Yes, I do. I sense it coming”. I explain to her that I sense energies. That I am a photographer creating artwork from nature. I think she was a bit stunned by my response to her because I am sure they receive a lot of rejection or at least skepticism from people al the time. I told her about asking for signs from God. And she offers me a magazine. On it, a butterfly was printed on it. I could not help but laugh, because I knew this encounter was orchestrated by Prince himself. Prince, if you did not know  was a Jehovah Witness.

    Through out the rest of the trip, I would have butterflies following me around, not just real ones, but I would see them on advertising and window displays as I walked the streets.

  • HOW I MET MICHAEL JACKSON’S TWIN FLAME

    I said in an earlier post that I would tell you the story about how I found out about Susan Elsa, Michael Jackson’s twin soul. One day n September, I was travelling with my best friend and her husband to the South of France. They were playing songs from their iPhone and I was sitting in the back seat. I had just gotten off the plane arriving in Paris that morning. I had barely a wink of sleep on the flight. Nearly dozing off in the sun, the song This Is It by Michael Jackson came on. I had never heard the entire song before because I’ve always avoided mainstream music altogether. I listened to the lyrics and my first thoughts were, “I wonder if Michael Jackson has a twin flame. He must be singing about her subconsciously. I hope he is with her now. I wonder if I will ever find her. Maybe not.”

    I forgot about this during the entire trip. One of the reasons I was on this trip was that I was directed to go to Switzerland. Some time later when I was home, I was searching online. I was looking for something that  could help a friend with, information to show her how real her experiences were in regards to twin sous. And that is when I landed on the shores of Susan Elsa’s blog. It felt like a God send because I had been asking Prince to help me find a friend that would understand me, what I’ve been going through. And of course, who could better understand than Michael’s twin? This goes to show you how psychically connected we are. It turned out that she is from Switzerland and we are both born in 1982.

    Prince and Michael Jackson had many similarities in their lives; both born in 1958, started their music careers at an early age, leading to worldwide fame, battling with the music industry, channeling their music from a higher source, heartbreaking disappointment in love and marriage, cutting edge creative visionaries, androgyny, emotional sensitivity, true heart and soul expression. Most importantly, they both came to show the world the true meaning of love. Both were Rock Shamans; they came to heal the world with their music.

  • SUBCONSCIOUS CHANNELING FROM WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER – TWIN SOUL MEMORY

    When I was two years old, my parents took me to Hong Kong and while we were there, my dad ordered a Yamaha piano. I don’t know what gave him the idea to do this. Clearly he wanted me to learn the piano. I remember taking piano lessons and learning these really basic and boring songs. I learned the notes, but since then, I have totally forgotten them. Throughout the years, I would have this urge to teach myself to play, but I just never got around to it. I hated practicing songs I didn’t like. I wanted to make up songs, not recite them. Sometimes when no one is home, I get on the piano with Prince and we make up stuff on there. I don’t know the notes, but I memorize the melodies.

    I find it totally funny now to learn that as a kid, Prince fired his piano teacher because she didn’t let him play what he wanted. Instead, he went on to learn to play by himself. This began many of his self-taught abilities. It’s funny to see our lives in parallel to each other as twin souls. Prince was much stronger than me in that he never let people put him down.

    When I was a teenager, I wanted to play guitar. And I did. I think I learned one song. And then I went on to write this one song. I remember it going like this:

    Good night, farewell
    Take care and be well
    We’ll meet again
    On another planet
    Somewhere far way

    How it is that I still remember these lyrics is just beyond me. I didn’t know what I was writing about at the time, but the words felt real to me. But I look back on it now and I really believe that I was singing it to my twin soul about having to be apart.

    I used to write a lot of poetry as a teenager. They would just come through me like water rushing in from the sea to shore. And I would capture them. I even gathered all my poems together and printed them in a little book titled The Lavender Room. It was printed on purple paper  with a silver cover.  But later I become discouraged and stopped writing when I took a writing class in high school. I didn’t enjoy the class very much when it became clear to me that the teacher didn’t have much appreciation for what I was writing. Maybe he thought my ideas were too far fetched. I remember writing a short story about a man living on the Eiffel Tower. It’s really funny to me now, because I recently learned that there is a secret apartment inside the Eiffel Tower.

  • MY EXPERIENCE COMMUNICATING WITH PRINCE IN SPIRIT – HOW IT WORKS

    A friend recommended a TED Talk to me, and I think explains in a way what is going on physiologically when I am communicating with Prince in spirit. Jill Bolte Taylor is a brain scientist that discovers what happens when one part of the brain becomes dysfunctional during a stroke. What she discovers is that the right hemisphere of the brain is the side that is connected to Nirvana. She explains that the left side of the brain is mostly having to do with logic, practicality, and it is how the brain directs the body to move. While the right side is linked to what one might call the “other side”, because in this state, she felt universal consciousness, bliss, and enlightenment. But without the function of the left side of the brain, she could not speak or read numbers, even though she was functional in her ability to think what she waned to say. It was a frustrating experience for Jill when she tried to call her office to tell them she had to go to the hospital in an emergency.

    I think this is how spirits most feel when they try to communicate with us, a sense of frustration that they cannot speak in such direct ways. They do not understand words or language in the way that we do. I discovered this to be the case when I first started communicating with Prince and we tried typing with my eyes closed. Though he was moving my hand to press the keys on my iPad, they did not form any words. However, it was possible for him to move my hand and draw a message. Sometimes I would draw words. But I always heard the word first even though I was freely allowing the energy to move me. This is why it was impossible for me to use a Ouija board with Prince, he was always telling me the words we were going to spell out. My  theory is that when I am drawing with Prince, what I have done is temporaily suspended my left brain to allow my hand to follow the will of Prince.

    In the case of telepathic communication with Prince, I found that his messages came in thought forms to me that are not fully realized. I believe the messages come through the right brain and get processed on the left brain, into words so that I can understand them. The processes is similar to translating a foreign language into your primary language in your mind. There is a slight delay caused by the translation process.

    Prince often communicates in feelings and images. It is easier for him to express himself in this way, but it can still be a case of lost in translation on my end. So I often ask for confirmation if what I am interpreting is correct.  I also think this is where inaccuracies from psychic readings can occur. If there is a lack of understanding from the psychic in regards to symbols, meanings, vocabulary, or a concept, it can easily be misunderstood.

    I believe that what is happening is that I am switching back and forth between the two hemispheres of the brain. I can easily go into trance-like surrendering state, but I can just as easily snap out of it as I so choose. This has been a recent phenomenon I discovered when I started communicating from Prince. I never experienced this prior to seeing Prince in spirit.

    For many people, meditation is a hard thing to do because they cannot shut off the left brain from thinking about their daily routine or what needs to be done by next week. However when one manages to do so, they slip into their right brain and they do find themselves in a state of bliss, timelessness, and oneness.

  • LAW OF ATTRACTION PROVEN BY QUANTUM PHYSICS? HOW YOUR THOUGHTS AFFECT REALITY

    Note to Readers; Since I have written this post, I have learned a lot more. Please see this more recent post. I renounce the concept of Law of Attraction due to a realization that the supposed science does not support the concept as it has been portrayed by many in the spiritual community. No consideration in these studies take in account for the nature of the spirit world. While I still do believe that the thoughts of humans can have an effect on the world, it is not the same way as what the Law of Attraction is saying, therefore I renounce it. 

    Updated: January 29, 2019

    For the longest tine, I was a skeptic of the Law of Attraction. The first time I ever heard of this concept was watching The  Secret. The movie had glamorized the concept so much that it left much to be desired. It offered no substantial scientific explanation. I seriously thought it was a scam.

    After many years of personal research and exploration. I can actually believe it and explain it, scientifically. Whether or not I believe the speakers in The Secret is not important. The concept itself is what is in question here.

    According to quantum physics, there is what’s called the observer effect. Meaning our perception of a subject matter can affect it’s outcome. This is proving the concept of mind over matter. In the famous double slit experiment, scientists found that by simply observing and measuring their subject matter, they were affecting its results. They were shooting electrons through two slits and by observing it, the electrons were behaving differently, as though there was a conscious awareness of the observer. It’s somewhat tricky for me to describe, so do check out videos of about the double slit experiment on YouTube if you’re curious about the subject.

    Understanding this, there are huge implications for how we are affected by thought alone. What this means for us, is that our own perception of reality has an effect on our outcomes, more than we’ve been led to believe. Our expectations and intentions matter very much. This also implies that “self-fulfilling prophecies”, “the placebo effect”, and “confirmation bias” are not just a way science has been used to write off things we couldn’t properly explain. But rather, the reason why there can be inconsistent results in scientific studies!

    We are all energetic beings. Our thoughts project an energetic signal in to the vast consciousness. Law of Attraction can be explained as being like a boomerang effect. The thoughts we put out there come back to us affecting our reality based on our thoughts and beliefs. Therefore, we hold a lot more power to affect reality than previously thought.

    This implies extraordinary things. On a massive scale, we could  be affecting the outcomes of reality, relating to world issues, such as peace and politics, even the weather.

    But before we even get into affecting the world, we must get to grips with our own inner world. Our outer world is simply a reflection of our inner world. Inner conflict becomes outer conflict when not dealt with.

    If you would like to explore more about this subject, I recommend the book The Intention Experiment by Lynne McTaggart. You will discover that there is more to reality than what we’ve long been told about reality. An absolutely fascinating book that will explain Law of Attraction without all the flowery woo woo mystical language you might hear from spiritual gurus.

  • PRINCE, THE SURRENDERING SOUL – FUTURE SOUL SONG INTERPRETATION

    Something that is the secret to Prince’s genius is that he channeled his music, meaning he tapped into a higher source to create his music. Intuition and creativity are one in the same. When you tap into one, you tap into the other. I discovered this for myself when I worked on myself spiritually, developing my intuition and finding that my creativity was flowing as a result. When you block either one, the other can be blocked as well. Many great artists work this way, only that they don’t realize it, so they cannot tell you about what they are doing creatively is tapping into their intuition.

    When you tap into intuition, it unlocks all kinds of abilities. The creative flow becomes unstoppable, hence this is why Prince was so prolific, he recorded a new album almost every year and he still had a vault full of unreleased songs that they could release a new album every year for the next hundred years.

    One of the keys to tuning into intuition is to surrender. There is no force involved, no trying. It just is. It is a sense of allowing and trusting. A song that I feel really captures this feeling is Future Soul Song from his 20Ten album. I want to show you what he was conveying in the lyrics. The song is truly beautiful, one of my favourites.

     

    I had a dream last night
    That I was flying for the first time
    And in the dream I could pilot my flight
    With the thoughts in my mind

    Since there wasn’t any up or down
    Everybody was all around
    When we sang, we all sang together
    Oh, what a beautiful sound

    He was flying in his dream, perhaps this was a lucid dream and he says he could pilot his flight with the thought in his mind. The mind is also what creates reality in the general sense. “Up or down” conveys hat there is no “class”, everyone is equal in status and were all singing the same song harmoniously. In the spirit world, there is no hierarchy. He is talking about unity conciseness here, oneness. Everyone is in the same energetic vibration. Vibration is most often expressed in soon, hence song and music, he uses this idea to convey the high vibration of humanity.

    I had a dream last night
    That I was singing and the sound of my voice
    Seemed to come from every mountain top
    Like it had no choice

    And when my voice rose, so did the sun
    When the trees sang the harmony as one
    Every living soul sang the most beautiful
    Melody ever sung

    In his dream he was singing, he felt oneness with his surroundings. This energetic vibration was one with nature. He is using the idea of sound as energy to convey this.As his energy rose, so did the vibration of the Earth. This is a spiritual teaching here, that as your energy rises, so does that of your surroundings.You affect each other energetically.

    Before the war the only words and language said
    Let there be light
    Those that can see it are the ones who believe it
    And put up no fight

    He is referring to the beginning of time in the phrase, “Let there be light”, a Biblical reference to Genesis. The word is what creates, one could also say “manifests”. Those that can see it, or understand it, believe this truth and don’t fight about it or resist it. The war is on your spiritual beliefs.

    And in the absence of fear and control
    Is the sound of the surrendering soul
    Louder than the dogmatic persecution
    Now sing it like you got that right

    When one is free from fear-based teachings from religion, one sees the truth loudly. The use of the word surrender is interesting, as I told you above, that intuition requires surrender, that you surrender your egotistical thoughts and listen to what comes through. It requires that you be still and quiet. However, the truth is louder than what others may say to try t brainwash you into believing otherwise. The soul can easily recognize the truth.

    In the last bit of the song, he whispers “Guess what, you are soul family to me”. That is because we are all connected on a soul level.

  • LIFE PURPOSE, CREATIVITY, AND PRINCE

    It’s been so busy, that I forgot to post. Well, actually I knew, but couldn’t get around to doing it. I’ve been busy reviving my other website. For those of you who don’t know, I’m also a Numerology practitioner. I’ve been working with clients doing readings for the past three years. I’ve decided to make that area of business more passive, so that I can focus more on creating more art and writing. Readings do take a lot of energy from me as much as I enjoy doing them. There;s other work I need to explore.

    I’m so excited to launch my new website, focusing on Life Purpose Numerology. It’s really taken Numerology to help me break free from my creativity rut and burn out. I used to be very attached to the results of my work, and it hurt me creatively. I now work intuitively, which gives me endless sources of inspiration and energy to do the work. I recently listened to a story from David Icke about the passing of Prince.  He said that he had the chance to meet him and he could sense the energy around him, how limitless he was. Prince embodied the music, which made him prolific in his work. I feel similarly about my photography work. The truth is everyone can tap into this energy if they are in tune with their intuition. Both creativity and intuition are one in the same. But as a society we try to make creativity something academic and rigid. We judge the work and the creator. And as creators, we judge ourselves accordingly.

    Prince certainly fulfilled his Life Purpose in his lifetime. I would like to help anyone out there who wishes to follow their purpose. Part of being able to find and follow your purpose is knowing yourself really well, and understanding the complexities of who you are. I’ve created a series of reports, called Your Life Purpose Report to help you using the powerful tool of Numerology. If you’d like to explore this further, head on over to my other website (decorated with my photographs!).

  • STOP CHASING YOUR DREAMS AND START MAKING THEM A REALITY

    STOP CHASING YOUR DREAMS AND START MAKING THEM A REALITY

    Have you ever thought about trying something new in your career? Did you stop yourself because it just didn’t seem like a logical career move? But your heart is still calling you to it?

    When I started my intuitive consulting business, I seriously thought that I had arrived. You see, I’ve always had different jobs or businesses, and I’ve never stayed in one place for a very long time. My resume is a patchwork quilt of different experiences. To a hiring professional, I would probably appear very flaky on paper.

    So when I thought that I had arrived at some place that I could stay in for a long time to come, I was quite happy. I trained as a life skills coach, and it was such a rewarding feeling to be working with people to change their lives. To grow spiritually and offer wisdom to others is amazing.

    But then my interests shifted again and I started doing other stuff. I got into photography and video making. And I loved it.

    The process of creating images and moving pictures was fulfilling a different side of me that wasn’t being fulfilled. It was allowing me to express myself in a way that I couldn’t before.

    I wondered if I should pursue this more seriously. My heart was saying YES! My head was saying, are you sure about this? It’s going off path, AGAIN!

    After some serious consideration, I decided to go for it. I was starting to realize how ungrounded I was becoming in my work offering personal development and spiritual guidance. Don’t get me wrong, I love this stuff. But too much of it isn’t a good thing. We need to have balance in life. It can’t just be all about the touchy-feel-good stuff they talk about in self-help books and Super Soul Sunday. We have to participate in life itself. And that means getting outside of our heads and taking action. Too many words of encouragement, too much looking for the deeper meaning in everything can really just be an excuse for procrastination. To truly live our dreams, we have to create it into reality, instead of chasing them with mere wishful thinking.

    I decided that what l needed a vehicle for more real life experience. A way to get back to reality. And photography was going to be the way forward, because it puts me in front of reality itself. I wanted to get in touch with what’s around me and create something tangible from it.

    The interesting thing about photography is that it has allowed me to merge two worlds together; the seen and the unseen. I work from an intuitive place, but I create with the reality around me. I am legally blind, so I often have to trust my gut feeling that I got the shot I wanted, and that everything is lining up for me in the photo. I don’t question so much, I rely on my instincts to guide me.

    And so I believe, this is what they would call “inspired action”. This career move wasn’t planned, it wasn’t a strategy. It just happened, I let go and I followed my heart. And I couldn’t be happier.

  • TO BECOME MORE CREATIVE, GO WITH THE FLOW

    The key to unlocking creativity and intuition is trust.

    If you unlock your intuition, you will unlock endless creativity. What it takes to do that is trust, trust in the process and trust in yourself.

    This is like the story of Peter Pan teaching the children to fly. He told them that they just needed to believe and that they could fly just like him. To believe in anything requires trust. Trust in your own judgement about yourself and others. When you start trusting, magical things start to happen.

    Trust in one’s self is probably one of the biggest life lessons, possibly even larger than self-acceptance. It’s not easy to trust yourself because we live in a society that values logical information more than intuitive. Instead of looking within for answers, we look for external validation, confirmation from physical or scientific evidence that proves something to be true.

    The process of learning and practicing Numerology really taught me to trust in the process and to not judge the information. One thing that gets in the way of intuition is not trusting it because we judge it. Releasing judgement frees up your energy to simply go with the flow.

    I would do readings for complete strangers and start to notice the kind of information that would come up in a reading. No two readings I do are ever the same, even if they are the same numbers. I would unconsciously emphasize certain messages to individuals, not really knowing why. But it would always turn out to be the message that they most needed to hear at the time . I would also use particular phrases or words that are not part of my regular vocabulary and it would hit home with the person I was reading,

    Numerology is a gateway for intuitive information to come through because it has a structure that you can trust in and allow for other unforeseen elements to play out.

    When I was younger, I would be attached to the results of my creations, trying to control everything. Becoming upset if things didn’t go my way. It caused a lot of frustration within me and discouraged me from pursuing creative interests.

    There was some time when I worked as a freelance designer creating design pro types. When I started I felt confident and creative, but as I worked harder to create, the harder it became until,I had to give up because I felt stuck.

    I found that after developing my Numerology practice, I was becoming not only more intuitive, but creative.

    I had always been interested in creating video, but I found the pursuit to be intimidating. I was very self-conscious about how I might appear and sound like on camera. I started taking steps towards video, doing voice-over narration so that I wouldn’t have to appear on camera. Eventually I started appearing on camera. Practicing and getting familiar with the process.

    I would start making all kinds of videos and noticed that something magical unfolded. I would start filming things that I simply felt drawn to. Not having a reason to film it other than I felt drawn to it. I would film all this footage, not knowing what I might do with it.

    Days later I would be thinking about what I might do with it. What kind of story I could tell with it. Then it would hit me like a lightning strike. The concept would come to me, I’d get on the computer and start editing. The words to narrate would start coming out unscripted. But it would all make sense and the footage would start to fall into place, even the shots that I thought would be useless would have it’s place.

    Working from a place of intuition takes trust in your own abilities and to trust in the process. There is a sense of detachment where you are not afraid of its results. You have to put away your fears and the ego that might discourage you. You simply embrace the moment, going with what comes to yo, capturing it in whatever medium you work in. Whether it is writing down the words that come to you, or recording a melody that is playing in your head. You simply must catch it when it arrives and not worry what will become of it.

    Doing this will lead you to unlock your limitless potential. To feel freedom and a sense of endless possibility. You do not need to practice on the technical aspect of your skill, but to practice the discipline that it requires to listen to your inner voice, to not place judgement and to follow your curiosities, trusting in what presents itself to you.
