			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The young woman whom I had given a reading was an incredibly sensitive young woman. She had needed to be held and loved, and when she had allowed someone to do that to her, she was “used,” in a way, and then discarded. I know, of course, that it was a past-life situation. Mine had also been a past-life situation, but it had not been easy for this very sensitive young woman, and she had done things similar to what I had done as a way of getting back. However, just like me, it did not serve a positive outcome; it rarely does.</p>
<p>In the last 42 years since my first daughter was born, I have had much opportunity to look at the way our emotions react and how we allow them to do so. We are all looking for love, every one of us. Some of us are lucky in that we get it from our parents. Others find a partner who feels the same way, but most of us live in relationships that are not two-sided. We stay in them for comfort, convenience, fear, but very rarely are we true to ourselves. As I aged, I came to the realization that I should have left my first husband 10 years prior to when I did. My second husband I should have parted 5 years before I left, but I did not do so because of fear. The first time I had young children. How would I cope? live? etc.? The second time I was comfortable. Everyone else could see the marriage was not working except me. However, it took 5 years for me to finally see it. With my second marriage there was no love really. It was a marriage of convenience, but I was so busy and so wrapped up in my life that it covered up the fact that there was no love. It is that also which often deceives us. We do not have love, so we work instead because it fills that hole which is waiting for something called love. With Alan, whatever love is, it is there and I no longer crave it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It was only after the baby – a little girl – was born and I was in the hospital all alone that I began to become aware of my actions, what I had done, and how obsessive I had been. Whether it was Spirit or just my awareness that I created it I do not know, but I became aware of my need for affection and love. I looked back over the 5 years of being with Pete and came to the realization that I was the one who had pursued the whole affair. He was too weak to fight me or too frightened. I could not blame the baby and what happened to him; it was all my doing. I could have had an abortion, but no, I was going to make him suffer or want to be with me again. The moment I became aware of my own folly and of what I had done I was mortified. I felt ashamed, guilty, and after the adoption had taken place, I wrote him a long letter telling him I did not blame him. He wrote back and said he had to get married. Cathy, his girlfriend, was pregnant and basically he was, in a way, asking me to go back with him.</p>
<p>Of course, I didn’t. A year later I married the man who was in the army, but this time my relationship was different. When we were courting before we married, I did not allow myself to become obsessed with him. We wrote to each other for some time before we got married as he was overseas. I had grown enormously, and my life was different because of that growth. I was no longer desperate for love, but I was witnessing people around me who were. I could recognize their issues because of what I had gone through myself. Forty years later I was again looking at the same syndrome with the beautiful young woman sitting before me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When we met a few days later, he told me he wanted to end our relationship. He no longer wanted to go out with me and had, in fact, got another girlfriend! I was devastated. Forty-two years ago I was still so afraid of my father and mother finding out about my being pregnant. How was I going to deal with this? I was only eight weeks pregnant when I told Pete, and during the next week I found accommodation with a friend and moved out of my home, my parents not even knowing anything was wrong. After I left, I sent them a letter which apparently really affected both of them. Meanwhile, I was doing everything I could to be near or around Pete. I lived a fantasy where he would come back and apologize to me – beg for forgiveness – and we would be happy ever after. His new girlfriend was with him everywhere he went; it was difficult for me to see him with her. She could not have cared less about me or the fact that I was pregnant. She seemed to gloat that she now had my boyfriend.</p>
<p>One night I went out to a social gathering and he was there on his own, so I took a pint pot of beer and threw it over him. Then I walked out. It did not bring him back. In fact, as my pregnancy progressed, he wanted nothing to do with me. Neither did his large family whom I had known for the five years we were together. I had visited their home, eaten at their table, and attended many family gatherings. I had left my friend’s house and was living in an apartment in the hope he would come back, but it was a wasted effort. I was not focused on the baby, only on me and getting Pete back. I made a decision to have the baby adopted at birth. Forty-two years ago one could not raise a child alone, and I was alone. My parents came around in the end, but at the time they did not want me back home with or without a baby.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not only did I become obsessed with him, I could not let him go either. Our courtship – if you can call it that – was my making him feel guilty if he wanted to end the relationship. Year after year, we would break up and, for a few weeks, we would go our own way. But in my own way, I would make sure that I went where he was. I made myself look sweet and innocent – which was the kind of look he liked and which had attracted him to me in the first place. If I could not be where he was, I got friends who were there to talk about me. I clung to him, and he could not escape me. I never wondered if he was happy with me. I assume he was to a degree because he did stay with me, but I never thought it might be out of pity or because he felt guilty. I was wrapped up in my own obsession.</p>
<p>After a few weeks it had become a sexual relationship, and in that sexual side I found the love I had not received at home – which made me even <strong><em>more</em></strong> obsessed. The years went by, and one year I met another man during a time apart from Pete. I found another “soul mate,” but he was in the army and was away most of the year. Finally, after 5 years of courtship and my constant nagging for a ring on my finger, Pete bought me a necklace. It shut me up for a while, but I kept hoping. I could <strong><em>not</em></strong> see that I was really not happy. On one of our times apart he had gone out with someone else, and it made me so jealous of him. Thankfully, it did not last, but I became like a woman obsessed over this incident. Shortly after this, I found myself pregnant. I was 21 years of age and terrified. Of course, I thought “Now he will marry me.” I told him one night at a bus stop before going home as he kissed me goodnight. I have never seen anyone in such shock!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Through my work I am constantly being confronted with memories and reminders of my past. One of my clients this week was a beautiful young woman who had been through a difficult time with a man she had a relationship with. She reminded me so much of myself at a certain time in my life, but it also brought home to me how emotional we are in our lives. I will call this person Mary for the sake of giving a name to her. She had been living with a flat mate and had a sexual relationship with him. They were not courting as such but, once it was over, he did not seem to want to know her anymore. She, in turn, became obsessed over him, so obsessed that she did some terrible things to him. He, in turn, thought she was mentally ill which, of course, she was not, but because she was so upset over his treatment of her, her only thought was to hurt him.</p>
<p>As I was talking to her, I was taken back over 40 years to an experience of my own. I had been going out with my boyfriend for 5 years. Looking back, how we lasted 5 years I honestly do not know. I was a very insecure woman in my teens and I met him when I was 16. I got no love at home and had been brought up with a father who told me constantly that I was stupid, a thickhead, a block head, and other such names. I bit my nails, hardly spoke to anyone, and because I hated myself, I was a “cutter.” I cut myself on my body as if to make myself more ugly! I met Pete (his name) and, from the first date, it was so amazing because he was just so wonderful. I received no love at home and never had but, from the moment Pete put his arms around me, I felt protected and wonderful. This was it, I told myself. My whole life revolved around him and, after a few weeks, I became obsessed with him.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The most amazing thing to me is that I only need to hear the voice and I know the soul. In some instances, I can even do it via e-mail. I used to have to work through spirit guides in the beginning, then a Master, Maitreya. But now I seem to work on a higher level. The accuracy of my work blows me away and, at the end of a day of doing these readings, I am in as much shock as those who have had them. It is then, when I am doing readings, that I can see where you are in denial and not living or speaking your truth.</p>
<p>However, it is one thing for me to tell you, but another for you to put it into being and address the issue. Eighty percent choose not to do so, and then, eventually, the Universe will create a situation for them to look at it. Often that situation can be very brutal – like when I denied my intuitive ability and would not use it year after year despite the Universe bringing everything into my life to make me see it. It created a recession in which I was the main player. After a few years of being in that situation, I knew what I needed to do, but I had to be brought to my knees first to force me to do it.</p>
<p>That is another form of truth: denying one’s own truth. I think that it is worse than lying to someone else, to be honest. It creates dis-ease in the body and is the forerunner of health problems. I have learned the hard way. One cannot suppress energy. If one tries to do so, one just stops the flow of what the Universe is trying to bring to us. If I could say anything to those seeking higher consciousness, it would be to speak <strong><em>your</em></strong> truth, but also do not lie. It may upset people to speak your truth, but speak it. If they do not like it, it is their problem, nobody else’s. <strong><em>TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE!</em></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I cannot imagine the chaos if every government in the world said, “Speak your own truth.” In the world of Spirit, one does exactly that: speak one’s own truth. One cannot lie. But there is never anything negative spoken because there are no spoken words. All communication is done via thought and on a different level altogether from the earth plane. We have no emotional body when we die, nor is there a Self. It is the Self that creates the drama in conversations and which causes all of the problems. It is only after many years of being a drama queen, finally moving away from it, and seeing it as a waste of energy, that I can see how dramatic I was and how the Self manipulated that drama, even to the fact of telling lies to get its own way.</p>
<p>To be honest, I have difficulty imagining a world where there is no Self, or drama, or emotional body. I told Maitreya once that it must be very boring and dull, and he laughed at me. He told me that it is far from that and that one day I will see for myself. I am really looking forward to that day! Maitreya told me that one cannot lie after one has passed over, and that many of those who pass over find it very difficult to be stripped of that ability. It is only then that they can truly see themselves as they are without the outer layers of emotions that contribute to our life on the earth plane.</p>
<p>I know without a doubt that there is a ruling force, whether you call it God or something else. How else can I know what I know when I do readings? I go to the very core of the person and reveal things to the people I see that I could never have known. One woman told me that I knew her better than she knew herself! A man told me that he was skeptical of intuitive readings until he had his reading. He did not know what to do after having it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, if there is not a correct truth, what <strong><em>is</em></strong> true? It is what we see as <strong><em>our</em></strong> truth, which can be very confusing to be honest. Imagine the courtroom banter: “Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?” You swear to do that and you are honest about it, but it is <strong><em>your truth</em></strong>. The other party may see it as completely different. After all, it is not <strong><em>their truth</em></strong>.</p>
<p>I often say that we hear what we want to hear, and often we do not hear or see what others see. I remember in the beginning of my channeling with Sister (when I was conscious channeling), that Sister would channel through me to my ex-husband. I was not there – she was doing the talking – but I could hear the gist of what was being said. Although I could not hear all of it, I could hear what was important. When I came out of the channeling, my ex-husband would tell me what had been said, and it shocked me to find that he had taken the whole message out of context that he had just been given. In fact, what I had heard spoken with love through me, he had not only taken as a scolding, but he also misconstrued the message. I never told him because I was told in the beginning of my channeling work never to change what I was given. I was the messenger only; nothing more. I was to give the message; nothing more. What a person did with it was their concern.</p>
<p>Is anyone correct? I do not believe so, because of what has been said. However, I will try as hard as I can for the rest of my life to be honest and tell <strong><em>my</em></strong> truth! It really puts a whole new aspect on the subject of truth if one looks at it like that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Only when we realize that we are all different can we begin to understand each other and to let go of the way we do things now and truly be understanding of each other. Astrology enabled me to see that fact. As I began studying the charts of friends and family many years ago, I came to see the individuality of each person. It was awe-inspiring to see that there is nobody in the world like me. I am unique. Even if they cloned me, they would not have another me – yes, in physical body, but not in the spiritual being. It would look like me but would not<strong><em> be</em></strong> me because it would be born at a different time. Because of the way the natal chart is constructed, it could even be born on October 19th, at 5:31 am in Nottingham, England – which is when and where I was born – but it cannot be born in 1946, so it would have a different astrological makeup. Its chart would not be the same as mine. Nobody has a chart the same as mine. More than anything, after years of doing study on twins, triplets, and other multiple-birth families, even these people are different from each other.</p>
<p>They can replicate me all they want to, but no one can have the same birth information as me which, of course, makes the personality and the other features of the chart totally different. Because of that difference, our belief systems would also be totally different. Of course, if you are a Libra you will have a group affinity to Libran energy and find that you have a lot of similarity to Librans. Still, your core belief system will be different in some way because this is created by the time and place you were born. One can also exhibit more of the Ascendant sign one was born under. I am a double Libra – so very Libran – but Alan actually shows more of his Scorpio Ascendant energy than his Libran energy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is so hard trying not to influence anyone and allow people to make their own decisions. Alan and I are very alike – born two days apart, both Libras. Our lives mirror for each other in all we have done with our lives despite Alan being 9 years younger than me. I would say that 80% of our lives are lived believing in the same things, but there is a 20% part of us which is very different in what we believe in and the way we deal with it. Thankfully, most of the time we are OK with that, but sometimes we do not agree and beg to disagree! I have learned from Maitreya and from being with Alan that, the more I try to change him to my belief, the harder he fights.</p>
<p>Oh, if only parents could see that this is a very important factor in raising children – especially teenagers. I must say here though that, when my children were teenagers, I did not interfere with their belief system in anything. My son became a Christian despite my being metaphysical. I never interfered with his doing this, and despite the fact that <strong><em>he</em></strong> tried to influence me to go back to the church, I never influenced or criticized him in any way to give up his beliefs. Eventually he, like most people, moved on to another truth – away from Christianity – but he did it on his own without influence from me or anyone else for that matter.</p>
<p>Parents are the worst people for interfering. As an astrologer, I know that each person is here to work out their <strong><em>own</em></strong> life path. Nobody can be the same – even twins, triplets, quads, etc. Although they have the same chart (often an identical one), they are so different from each other, both of them being different personalities and with different ways of learning their life lessons.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is strange how we do this. We find something we like and then spend most of our time trying to make others like it too. If they do not like it we condemn them, criticize them, or turn away from them. Maitreya has said many times that, if we took the energy we spend in doing this and used it for ourselves, how much more we could manifest for ourselves. However, we continue to try to change people and to get them to think our way.</p>
<p>Imagine a world where there was no derision of belief and everyone was allowed to be the way they wanted to be. We would not know to criticize, turn away etc. How much better the world would be! For centuries this has been going on, but we have not been able to see it. I truly believe that we are beginning to see it these days, and are realizing that we <strong><em>are</em></strong> doing it.</p>
<p>I had lunch today with two very dear friends, and we were discussing what we did to force our belief systems on another. It was quite humorous listening to each other and, of course, what we used to be like but no longer are. It is the way of the world, and we could all see that it has not changed one iota for all those centuries mentioned earlier.</p>
<p>My granddaughter was on Skype the other day discussing a film she wanted to see, but her friends at school had panned it. I told her to make her <strong><em>own</em></strong> decision about it, so she chose to go and see it. Afterwards, I asked her what she thought of it, and she said she loved it. I told her that she would have missed out on a good movie had she listened to her friends and from now on to make her own decision over things. Hopefully, she will do that and not go into the old way again of listening to everyone except herself!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The hardest lesson I have had to learn in raising my vibration is that each man/woman has their own truth, and we cannot change that truth no matter what we do or try. <strong><em>They</em></strong> have to change it and they cannot do so unless they are ready. As a child growing up, I had the truth of my parents and I lived that truth in fear, even if I thought something different, put it into action, and went against their truth. As I entered the workforce and left the home environment, I began to see another truth from those around me. This made the fear even worse because, I not only understood their truth, but found that it was my truth in a way. Then I married and took on 80% of my husband’s truth – while, of course, still battling the “real” truth of childhood and teenage years. I had children and, from talking to other mothers, found another truth. And so it continued through my life, experience after experience.</p>
<p>Then Maitreya came into my life and shattered my belief in truth by telling me that there is no truth because one man’s truth is another man’s folly. In other words, each person has their own truth, and as such, there is no correct answer. What I saw as truth was not someone else’s truth. He also explained to me that I cannot change their truth. I could try, but if they were not ready to change, nothing I could do would enable change in that person. Until then I had spent years trying to change people – from my days of being a Christian and wanting to educate people about Jesus, to my wanting to educate people about metaphysics, I had not managed to change anyone, yet I still persisted in trying to do so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It also amazes me how many people are in a job they hate, yet rather than open a new door they continue on in the job they are in and eventually have health problems because they are not at ease in their career. Rather than open a door to begin to study a new career if they have not done so already (and most have not), they plod along until eventually they create dis-ease, then full blown disease within themselves. I have actually seen people die because they would not make the changes they were capable of, all due to fear.</p>
<p>I am finally living my life’s purpose. I must say also that you are never too old to change. I had a 67-year old friend who had always wanted to do healing. Her astrological chart showed this was her true destiny. She had been a mother and grandmother but never worked. One day she came to classes I was teaching and learned how to heal. She found that she had (as I felt) a natural talent for healing and began using it part time. It gave her so much happiness to do this, and I know it kept her young and healthy. She is now almost 90 and still healing. I know she will make it to 100 and still be healing.</p>
<p>Are you unhappy in your career or job? Are you doing what you came here to do? You do not have to give up your job or career to open a new door. This can be done casually or part time in study and in working it (before one builds up a clientele) and then give up the old work one is doing. In closing, I wish to say that Maitreya, my teacher, taught me the fact that happiness is ours to create. Spirit does not do this for us – we do it. When we find our life purpose, we find our passion, and then one is truly happy. So many people never find their passion or their life destiny, and it is such a shame because they bring themselves around for another incarnation just as I did. I am so glad I found what mine is and that I am fulfilling it. Not only that, but I am truly happy in what I do. So many people tell me that I work so hard, but I do not feel that I do. It is not work for me; it is my true destiny and passion.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why do they not fulfill their destiny even though they do not need a partner? One simple reason, The Self! Fear, doubt, and other emotions can stop a person in their tracks. The earth plane is a minefield if you do not know where you are going you get blown up! If you have a natal chart it can help you manipulate the minefield so it is not so hard. When a person tells me it is their destiny to do something, I often ask them if they are prepared to walk through the minefield to get there because often that is what happens if one does not have a map. My destiny was to channel Maitreya and bring new teaching to the earth plane. In the minefield were two husbands who could not stay the distance, people who told me I was not channeling Maitreya, people who put obstacles in my way, as well as obstacles my Self had put there; heaps of fear, confidence factors in my journey, just to name a few of them. I was lucky in the fact I put no oppositions in my destiny because had I done so I would never have made it, I know that. Oppositions are aspects astrologically which really make it hard to do what I had to do in pursuing my destiny. I have a good natal chart and as such although it has not been easy, it has not been extremely hard. Each step along the way has been a learning experience which has taken me on to the next lesson. All I needed to do the journey was provided, I just needed to believe it and here lies the first lesson, I had no belief system as such about what I could do, once I conquered that aspect, then I was able to manouvre the minefield with a lot more ease.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is your life purpose? Do you know? I will tell you now that, if I were to tell you, you might not want to do it. It never ceases to amaze me how many people do this and deny their true talent. Even worse are the people who say they have no interest in that career! I have lost count of the number of people who have said that, only to come back and say they could not believe how happy they are now that they are doing it. As parents, we often want our children to do what <strong><em>we want</em></strong> them to do, rather than what <strong><em>they want</em></strong> to do.</p>
<p>Both Alan and I have been guilty of this when our children were younger. I was a good – but failed – ice skater, so I put my children into ice skating. My son showed exceptional talent and so I persuaded him to be an ice skater and a coach. He hated it because it meant he had to be away from home to study for this. The Universe did everything it could to stop him from doing this. The local ice rink closed down, hence the need for him to travel an hour and a half to another rink and eventually stay with a family there. The cost for me was enormous, but at the time I could not see that it was not what he was meant to be. He was living <strong><em>my</em></strong> dream, and it took some time before I was able to see that and enable him to do what his destiny was which was to go into the services, namely the RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force). He leaves that career in February of 2011 after 23 years of service. He has enjoyed every one of those 23 years.</p>
