Carla Mary's Newsletter - May 2010 'Connecting the tools to heal the mind / body / spirit'
Welcome to this months issue of the newsletter!
Yes, I know that I am a little late on putting it out, but I will use the Mercury is in retrograde excuse. The weather is getting warmer and time to get outside more. Take advantage of connecting with nature and renewing your energy during this time. It can be grounding or getting a little sun to enhance your aura field. Gardening can be a great way to reconnect, heal and raise your energy vibrations.
When was the last time you got in touch with your sacral center? The sacral is our creativity center and a power center. This is where our inner child is that can affect us positively or negatively in our adult daily life. Through meditation you can go within and visualize yourself with your inner child. By hugging and loving, giving positive words of encouragement can be just what it needs to enhance your life. Also, the use of the crystal carnelian agate is a excellent stone to use to heal this energy center.
We are almost out of Mercury in retrograde, as you can see my newsletter has taken some time. Find out what is in store for you this month. Read your horoscope here. Remember to also look at your ascendant / rising sign as you are a mixture of both.

Meeting your animal Spirit totem In person ~ Saturday 29th 7 pm Cost $10 RSVP the day of the class On line at yahoo messenger chat (please sign up prior) Wednesday 26th - 7 pm Cost $10 RSVP At least 2 hrs before the class
Animal spirits walk among use. Native American shamans are most commonly linked to using animal wisdom, but there are many other cultures where it has been sacred. Celtics, Hawaiian/Polynesian, and Aboriginal tribes are a few other examples.
Everyone comes to this earth with one animal totem. This totem was chosen by you, when you wrote your life chart, to help you fulfill your life themes. Your animal totem holds qualities and wisdom that will serve you throughout your life. However, you can call on different animals during certain periods of your life to help guide you through specific situations. Even if you do not call on them specifically, they will come to you when needed.
The easiest way to connect with your personal power animal is through meditation.
Most people that are here on earth have lost contact with their connection to the earth and the animal kingdom. Animals have a much different consciousness than that of humans, and for many, are considered lesser beings. It is believed that animals have souls, just as humans do. The souls continue to communicate and impart their knowledge and love, after they have passed on. These souls are the animal spirit guides, or called totems.
It is believed that each person has a number of animal spirits with them during different parts of their life. Some come for a fleeting moment, while others remain for years, or a lifetime. We do not choose are guides, they choose us.
Every animal Spirit/totem has its own medicine or power the is unique.
One of the ways to find out your totem is through being observant to signs. Some will appear around you or even in your dream state. This is just a part of developing your own inner knowledge and spiritual understanding.
Some of the things that your Animal totem/sprit can assist in your life:
Improve your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well being. Clarity in your life. In our spiritual advancement. Our daily lives. Protection
The Animal totems are here to assist us with some powerful lessons that we maybe facing. They remind us that we are only a small fraction of creation. Each part of creation has its own place in this whole make up of the universe and world. All creatures have their own skills and wisdom.
Developing a connection with our totems takes time and patience. You do not have to be in direct physical contact with the animal. But you can learn its traits, habits and skills. It is not an experience that you meet them once and forget about them. But to have a deep connection and communicate and have a so called relationship with them. The rewards can be understanding, love, light energy, skillful knowledge and wisdom. But best of all, having a powerful spiritual friend that is there for you.
The animal totem can become a gateway to connecting with other Spirit guides. They will teach you how to connect with other beings.
Communication with your spirit guide requires reverent respect and knowledge of the ways of the animal guide. You must find ways to honor your spirit guide. The more importance you give to the spirit guide the more they respond to you. A spirit guide is sensitive to moods, current events, and a persons path in life.
Animal spirits often reveal themselves to us through our subconscious during sleep and meditation. During these sessions, animals indicate valuable information about our past, present and future, as well as help us with situations we are dealing with in our lives.
Animals also show themselves in our dreams and meditations to simply identify themselves as our spiritual guide, and thus our animal totem. This requires us to pay attention, and learn more about what this animal represents so that we can work with our animal totems. Animals tend to have a keener sense of purpose, and instinct. These are valuable traits we can learn from them by asking for their guidance, and observing their behaviors in our dreams and meditations.
Meditation is simply a state of conscious dreaming, so you can use the following steps to help in identifying animal totems through both dreams and meditation.
About my meditation on Meeting your Animal Spirit / Totem
I begin on preparing you for the meditation on what you may see and how you maybe viewing things during the meditation process. This includes talking about the totems and how to fully benefit from the meditation process.
The meditation begins by guiding you through a deep state of meditation that completely relaxes you and opens your intuitive side ( third eye). This process assists you in opening up to the other side and your intuitive mind.
I Guide you through a meditation that assists you in finding out what is your totem(s). Some individuals may have more than one. Listening to what the totem has to say; why they are with you, how they can assist you and how to call upon them at different times. You will also feel their energy and experience their power.
Ending the meditation by each sharing what they experienced. Everyone that attends receive a print out sheet about the animal totems and what they mean.
Guided Imagery Meditation ~ Healing the chakras Sunday 30th 7 pm Approx. 1 hr Listen to this live on Yahoo Messenger $10 Pay through pay pal only. Cost $10
Healing the chakra meditation is designed to go within each of the chakras and clear the blocks that can be within. This is all part of self healing. Each chakra can have different negative blocks that are associated with each chakra.
In this mediation I will be guiding you into deep relaxation techniques. Guiding you into each of the chakras and going over a list of the blocks that can be within. Not everyone will have every block or negative thing that is associated with that energy center but if it is in the chakra, usually it will present it self as a energy for you to clear. I will go over the way you will be clearing the energy before we start the meditation. At the ending of the meditation we will be enhancing the energy centers with positive light energy.
This is a very powerful tool in self healing that I have done for years with many - and many have experienced this wonderful healing experience.
Meeting your Spirit guides and angels ~ plus group mini reading Sunday 16th 6 pm Cost $25 RSVP by noon 5/16
Connecting with our guides, higher self and angels allows the person to find that special bond that is unique to you and them. Everyone has Spirit guides and angels that are with us. Some will stay with us for life and then some will go and come back and new ones may enter. This all depends on our path in our souls life, what we are currently doing in life and the assistance that we need at a certain time. Also, the higher self is considered as our own soul and also called higher conscience being.
Do you ever wonder who is with you? Who you are receiving your information from, if its from telepathic or dreams, etc.? Through this guided imagery meditation I will be guiding you into a deep meditative state to connect with those that are here to assist you in your life. If you have a question or would like information from them, make sure you bring one with you. In the meditation you will ask them a question and receive some form of an answer. You will also learn during the meditation how to contact them and how to recognize and know that they are around you. Also, you will be guided to view what your higher self looks like.
This class will help you when you do meditate to make that connection on your own. A brief channeled message will be given to each that attends.
Past life regression meditation Sunday 23rd 7 pm Cost $10 RSVP by 5/23 noon
The mediation on past life gives contact to the memories of lives prior to this one. Each of us as a soul have lived other lifetimes. This is what is called reincarnation. We reincarnate in order to learn more emotions and experiences. During each lifetime we do experience different situations. It is how we handle each of them that matters the most. We do carry over from past lifetime issues, meaning emotions and situations that we need to still learn and heal from.
You may experience, as each are unique, learning lessons that your dealing with in this life time. Past life journeys can be of different genders, ethnic origins and social status. Some that have done this with me have even experienced lifetimes not even from this earth plane.
What you will experience during this time:
I start out by describing different things that you may experience while you are viewing your past life. Then as it starts I will Guide you through steps into deep relaxation and opening your intuitive minds eye. I Guide everyone to play detective through out their experience. I will Guide you to look for information; dates, places, profession, your age, name, gender, people around you and much more.
During this time you will also meet with your Spirit guides to assist you in visiting your past life. You will view your library of records of all your previous lifetimes.
After viewing the past life I will have you ask your Spirit guides to tell you what was the meaning of that life time. (the theme) We will then move forward into this lifetime to find out future events. Then we will visit our soul group, which will take you in between each lifetime.
After the mediation each shares their experience with each other. Everyone will receive a paper to write down what they saw so that they remember.
Have you ever touched someone or something and received images or thoughts in your mind immediately? If you said yes, you have experienced this ability. It is the ability to interpreting the energy impression or what some call vibrations from certain things.
Psychometry is also referred to as psychic touch. This ability is connected to clairsentience and clairvoyance. The gift of clairsentience is one that we all have to some degree. It is the feelings that you receive from others or things. The feelings of positive or negative from people or things. Such impressions can be perceived as images, sounds, smells, tastes - even emotions.
Every object possesses vibrations that reflect its entire history. When you are open to sensing these vibrations you can pick up on the objects past. Not only does it deal with receiving information of the past but the present and future can also be revealed. This ability to places as well so that you can tune into past events when you are receptive to the vibrations of the place. This ability is most often used in missing person cases.
For example, a person who has psychometric abilities - a psychometrist - can hold an antique glove and be able to tell something about the history of that glove, about the person who owned it, about the experiences that person had while in the possession of that glove. The individual may be able to sense what the person was like, what they did and even how they died. Perhaps most important, the person can sense how the other person felt - the emotions of the person at a particular time. Emotions especially, it seems, are most strongly recorded in the object. The individual may not be able to do this with all objects at all times and, as with all psychic abilities, accuracy can vary, but the ability is available to the psychic.
Most teachers recommend this as the first step. This ability can be mastered within several months and leads itself to a natural progression toward learning more challenging skills. The most important thing is to be confident that you will gain accurate psychic impressions when you handle the object with practice. It's also important not to try to figure out stereotypic histories of the object, not to analyze and interpret your impressions to find if they make sense. It's better to simply observe all the impressions that come into your mind and describe them without clinging to them and without trying to control them. Often the most unexpected images are likely to be most correct.
In this class we will experience:
Getting into a deep state to be open to your intuitive mind Learning about psychometry and how to use it Experiencing exercises on using this technique Experimenting with objects that are brought in to the class
Please bring in objects to the class for everyone explore with, but do not let anyone know whom they belong to. Objects to bring would be jewelry, picture, letters and etc. Also, have objects that you know that may have impressions/energies from another. You will also learn to feel crystals to experience their energy.
This is a class that all will be able to do hands on work and everyone must participate. This class is for all levels to attend.
Do you have a group of friends and family that would like a private class? Just let me know ~ I do travel to teach groups.
