Posts: 1 07/04/09 04:23:19	Tags : None I've been all over the site over the last several days. Before finding this one, came across many others in my search under "reincarnation & dreams". This site has been very educational, and having experienced several of the things that you talk about here I have an understanding of the explanation's given and for what I can only describe as the first time ever-I feel as though I'm reading from someone who truly knows what they are talking about. I've had feelings and visions "impressed" upon me since I was a very small child. I've known for a very long time that I could "hear" voices that weren't my own telling me things-things for my own good and given my stubborn nature it took until I was 18 to listen. I've felt and understood through these voices that I've known someone in a past life. I've seen Spirits. I've lived with a friendly Ghost who would just like to move my things and I had conversations with him. People seem to answer questions that I have not verbally asked. When I was about 13 I even levitated playing that game, "Light As A Feather Stiff As A Board" to the complete horror of all of the other girls at the slomber party. LOL It was the first time that I had ever played and all the girls had gone before I had and I wondered why they weren't levitating if that was the purpose. I guess that was my first experience with a form of meditation, although I had been hypnotized several times before this...And I suppose the list goes on and on. Most of these things seem to be out of my control, and as SpringWolf puts it, we are all capable of these things-it is just that some of us are naturally dialed in. I have been approached by Psychic's who tell me I have "the gift". But I've never really known what to do with it, or how to figure it out...But as I get older, the more comfortable I become. I know I lose a lot of what is told in my dreams, being fully aware as they happen, but not paying attention when I wake up. Or, the memory comes to me later in the day. Lately though I've been pulled to figure out what seems to be very important with my past lives. I will do what SpringWolf says and mediate on it. Just having read and visualized the meditation my dreams are coming into clearer focus and I am comprehending more, so I am very excited to see what meditation brings. If any of you may be wondering I have always considered myself a "Spirtual" person, however I have never follwed a religion. I wasn't brought up with one and try as I might to conform to the "Church" it just never felt "right". My definition of "Spiritual" has meant that I believe in things I cannot see, I cannot prove but I can feel. I believe in the forces Nature of the Universe-good and bad, I belive in Karma. Instant Karma is a favorite of mine since the hand of Karmic Law moves swiftly. Obviously, having felt the presence of what I could only describe as my "Guardian Angel" telling and showing me things I belive in Devine Love. Anyway, I didn't mean to go on and on...I was just trying to give a little background info on me. My reason for posting here is that I was wondering a couple of things. First of all, I was told by a Psychic that I was cursed. That it was a curse specific to Love. Of course she wanted about $200 to rid me of the curse, so it made it harder to believe but I cannot shake the possibility and the proposed person who cursed me-my Ex Mother In Law. You may laugh, but really--you don't know what she's capable of. And, no matter what I try I cannot hold on to romantic love. Athough I've kinda stopped trying-at least for now. Also, and I don't know if this is connected or not-but for years now, and I don't know exactly how long but about 7-10 years I have seen something daily that really weirds me out. I tend to look at the clock at 12:13 PM and/or AM. I also look at it at 12:34 PM and/or AM. My birthday is 12/13/72. I have no idea what 12:34 might mean or stand for other than the obvious, 1234. Or if you add them up, 10. But I don't get that either. So, anyone has heard of this sort of thing. It doesn't matter how busy I am, what I'm doing or who I'm with or if I cared to see what time it was, or as a passing glance I look and it's either 12:13 or 12:34. But I can say that this happens at least 2 times a day, every day. When it started it was not as often, but after a week I couldn't help but notice it and it hasn't stopped since. Well, if no one has a clue about this not to worry...I will meditate on it like the other things but I thought I'd give it a try. Thanks!

Posts: 239 07/04/09 08:02:52	Welcome Summer Song! I'm glad that you joined us here, and I hope you enjoy your stay. As for your question, I did a little search on the main site: http://paganspath.com/magik/hex.htm The part that concerns you the most: (Quoted from the above link) There are 2 very important things to remember about hexes. Just because you are having a sting of bad luck doesn't mean you've been hexed by someone. Everyone goes through trials and tribulations and they are not easy for anyone. But more often than not, they of our own making and from our own choices. We can't go back and change the things we went through. But we can learn from them and heal ourselves in the process. Blaming others for our own choices is not going to get you anywhere. It's more likely than not, that your current experiences are coming from your own worry. Just by thinking someone has cast a spell on you, you are giving that person your energy and creating anxiety for negative events even if nothing has been done to you. I strongly suggest those who believe they have been cursed, read the articles listed in the next section. The second thing to remember about hexes is that they cannot work unless you allow them to. So if you are absolutely sure that someone has attempted to curse you, what do you need to know? First someone who threatens you with a hex very likely hasn't got a clue nor do they have the experience to cast such a spell upon you and produce enough energy to have any real affect. Those that have the knowledge, won't tell you they're going to smite you. If you know for sure someone with the ability has hexed you it doesn't mean their effort will work if you know how to protect your own energy. There are several articles here on PagansPath that can explain how energy works, how your thoughts and perceptions can work toward impeding your ability to protect yourself and family, and how to clear and cleanse your energy from negativity in general. And finally how to set up a shield of protection. I strongly suggest reading these articles in the order I'm listing them. Please don't skip the first article. Of all these listed, it is the most important. Meditation, Energy & Action What is Energy? Clearing, Cleansing & Protecting Your Energies Balancing and Protecting Your Energies A Protection Ritual END QUOTE Summer Song, perhaps read the full article and the additional links on the end and then decided if _you_ believe that you've been cursed. Because if you believe it, than it is true.... I don't know if that makes sense. It ties into the ideas that we create our own realities and our thoughts effect our lives. If I believe that I will never succeed in life, I won't. If I believe I will and I work hard, I have a better chance. If you're concerned about how you feel about love perhaps you do have some energy blocked somewhere. You could find this out yourself with meditation or go to a real healer who is up front about the costs (a Reiki session, for example, should cost between 20 and 50 for an hour treatment ... at least going from what they charge here in Germany.) or you could talk to a normal professional concellor (sp) about it. I'm not much with numbers. I think there are some numeralolgy people here on the board ... hopefully they'll come out of the wood-work and help out. All the best! Winkle

Posts: 3701 07/07/09 20:31:50 Administrator	Greetings Summer, Thank you for visiting PagansPath and sending your kind comments. The site is truly my labor of love and I'm always amazed that people find it useful. Of course you are welcome to email me anytime with questions, clarifications or information. If you need further clarification about any of the articles on PagansPath.com; please feel free to contact me again. If I can help, I'd be glad to answer any additional questions, or at the very least I might be able to point you to another resource. It might be surprising to read this, but...Never believe what 1 psychic tells you. Not about who you are, what you can do, or what has affected you in your life. Until you can confirm what you've been told by other psychics it's just a story and has no validity. The psychic you talked to about being cursed is a perfect example of a charlatan who should be avoided and dismissed, not believed. The problem is you took this person at their word and pulled what they said into your subconscious. Now you are making those words a self fulfilling prophecy. That nagging thought in the back of your head turns into actions and whither you see it or not, you sabotage your relationships and then believe it's the "curse", which makes the words stronger in the back of your mind. Giving them more validity and strength over your actions. It's like a snow ball that just keeps getting bigger. So if I may Summer - it's time to melt the snowball in the summer sun and let it die into earth where it can no longer harm you or your future. Let it go. Next topic....having someone tell you that you "have the gift" is like telling anyone "you can breath".Being psychic to some degree means that when a person takes notice and recognizes their sixth sense they too can become a "psychic" with a perceived gift. To do that, a person simply needs to start learning, researching and practicing. The more one learns, the more they become in-tune with their own ability and the more it becomes a part of their every breath. Now you have a choice to make. Only you can decide what you do with this attunement into your sixth sense. No one can tell you what you are, or how to use your ability. This is a decision you must make, because it is your accountability, you will be responsible, it's your karma that is being affected. I think you're taking the right approach and meditating and paying attention to your dreams. But you should also be listening to your gut feeling. Ask yourself, what do you want to do and listen to the answer. And finally, the clock/number thing. You might find it interesting to know that I too went through a very similar thing. For me it was the number 4, 44 or 48. The really important things, or things that mean a lot to me all have the number 4 associated with it in some way. Oddly enough, I was born at 4:48 in the morning. An example, the VIN number on my car (which I bought for myself on my 40th bday), has 4 consecutive 4s in it. I took it as a good omen. My son was born on June 4th. SirEvil and I were handfasted on 12/8; when we looked at the clock for starting our ritual it was 8:48pm. The date and time were purely coincidental, the 8th was the day we picked up the rings from the jewelers and that night we were anxious to conduct our private ritual. Little things like this have happened all my adult life. In the past 10 years, I have met many spiritual teachers; not all on a pagan or metaphysical path; who claim to have a similar association with numbers. And like you and I, the numbers have a relation to their birthday and/or time. I don't think this is any coincidence. There is a meaning to this, but darn if I know what it is. For me I see 4 as my lucky number. And I follow it's message or pay attention to what's going on when ever it shows up. I look at what I'm doing at the time. What the number shows up on, which can be a clock, a temperature, or any number of places. I consciously pay attention to what I was thinking at the time, and analyze what energy, connection, answers, insights those thoughts have on the moment at hand. Sometimes I catch myself having self doubts and kick myself for it. Sometimes I feel it's a confirmation about an answer or solution to a problem that I was thinking about. Sometimes it's an insight about something I need to pay attention to; like seeing a 4 on a jersey of a guy in a big billboard that reminds me of SirEvil, or my son. So far, this has served me well. So the numbers might have a similar influence for you, instead of dissecting the number in numerological terms. But in addition to all that, you might do some historical research and see if you discover anything that rings a bell, or gives you a connection/chill when you read it. Ok, I think I'm rambling now...primarily because I'm watching Deadliest Catch while I'm reading the board. So if you have questions; let me know. Many Blessings - Lady Spring, D.D.

SUMMER SONG	Meditation Help	#4	[url]	[-]
Posts: 3 07/07/09 21:56:23	Thank You Winkle Beam & Lady SpringWolf for taking the time to respond to my post. I feel I should clarify my question, as I was really only moved to ask about the numbers thing but then it occurred to me about the "love curse" and I didn't know if maybe the two were connected in some way. I had only met the woman who told me about it about a year and a half ago and I had asked her about the numbers as well and she mentioned that the "could" be connected. Love relationships have been difficult for me long before I knew of the so called curse. It was more of a strange back-tracking...I thought it was a possibility, mostly because I wouldn't put anything past my ex-family-but I also thought it was highly unlikely and MY own senses told me that I shouldn't trust this woman, although I do believe that she was Psychic because she was so right-on about specific things in my life so it was difficult to figure her out. I honestly feel silly for ever entertaining the idea of a curse but there is plenty in the world that I don't know about and I also didn't know if the numbers were connected...It's all so strange. I do feel a sense of being a bit lighter in this regard now, thank you for putting how ever slight my thoughts were to rest. Although if I were cursed in love it would make looking back at things a bit easier, LOL. But seriously-I only feel more of what I've known for much, much longer and what is connected to why I ever came to this site to begin with which is searching for ways to tap into the dreams and clues I have about my past lives. I haven't been able to meditate yet. I'm held up because I don't really have a place I feel I can mediate. I share my home with roommates who are always around and loud. I share my bedroom with my dogs, rats and cat. They are always making some type of noise or moving about. I did think of using ear plugs but if the dogs bark, which they tend to do quite often, the ear plugs won't be much help. If I put them outside it will only cause them to bark! So I'm kind of at a loss here, I would hate it if trying to meditate became something irritating. Does anyone have any suggestions for me regarding how I should mediate in a busy home and busy bedroom? Thanks! S.S.

Posts: 3704 07/08/09 11:20:19 Administrator	Hello Again Summer, Let's start with the curse and the past relationships. You know as well as anyone else that people go through trials and tribulations in life. Some people fall into relationships that are meant to be at a young age, and some of us struggle for years, or even decades. I'd fall into the latter as an example. There can be many reasons for the latter to occur. You may have a mission to complete that cannot be accomplished with a significant other impacting your schedule. You may have to go through certain events in your life to prepare you for a bigger purpose later in your life. You may need to learn a lesson about listening to your instincts, or having patience or paying/redeeming karma. There can be a 1000 reasons and none of them relate to a curse. But I agree, it sure would be nice to point to that when looking back over mistakes. If it helps, when I turned 40 I filed for divorce after a string of failed relationships. I moved away from family and friends and started over. I reached a point where I was becoming content with being alone. I thought I had finally found a place where I was happy, could do what I wanted, when I wanted and how I wanted. I was even thinking of planning an exotic vacation, just me. Like those 1920s adventurous women who traveled through Africa alone and wrote about their journey. The problem with creating a void in your life, (ie: "Athough I've kinda stopped trying-at least for now.", or "becoming content with living in hermitization" - that was my line) the Great Spirits have a way of filling that void. A few months later, I was hit by a bus named Garrett. He's truly unlike anyone I have ever had a relationship with in the past. Looking back on it, I wonder if that time alone was a time to change energy, to break the mold of bad choices and renew the path so to speak. Of course I cannot say this is what you're going through. Only you can look at your life and review your choices, the similarities between relationships and where you want to move to now. But one thing to keep within yourself is hope. Now as for meditation. I'm not sure waiting until late evening would work in your schedule. When the dogs are a little more quiet and you can use headphones or ear plugs. You might consider finding a park to visit where you can get away from people and be within nature. If you work at a company with an office building, you might be able to reserve a corner conference room for lunch meditation time. If you work at a store, you might be able to spend some alone quiet time in your car, parked in a far corner of the parking lot. At the moment that's all I can think of. But I hope it gives you some ideas. Many Blessings - Lady Spring, D.D.

SUMMER SONG	Lady SpringWolf~	#6	[url]	[-]
Posts: 4 07/08/09 18:16:39	Lady SpringWolf, You are absolutely correct and yes, I have known for a long time about trials and tribulations in life and relationships and that it all holds meaning. I feel that each relationship that I've had taught me a lot and for that I am a better person and wouldn't want any of it changed. The significance of it all cannot be discounted. And the only thing that helped me figure that out is time and distance to see it all clearly. And that I've done. What I call "connecting the dots". So while I say that relationships have been difficult, that is true-however I know that they have been necessary to paint the bigger picture. I wouldn't be who I am without it. Also, for the last 6 years I have been completely twisted up by a connection with a particular man. He is the one that I got the very intense visions and "feelings impressed upon me" about. He is the one that I've known for far longer than 6 years, at least our Souls have known each other far longer. I feel that for all of this time I've had 100 pieces of a puzzle that uses 1,ooo to be complete. But I've tried to figure out the picture anyway. I've been so consumed with how it was "meant" to be that I lost myself. Also, the visions would seriously mess with my head and nothing that I had figured out and gone through in previous relationships prepared me for it. The good news is that although I am a stubborn, emotional, tempered person-I do eventually see the light. I just never had preparation for anything like it or anyone to talk to about it who could understand it...So I held onto it and tried to make it fit or to ignore it, or to be mad at it-anything really. I didn't do a very good job of it. Until piece by piece I let go of the fight between my personality and my Soul-both of which I know are very strong. So this process has taken a very, very long time. I can honestly say that for the first time in all of my life I have reached a place of peace within myself that is hard to describe. But that's what I meant when I said that I am kinda done trying. I've tried far too hard for far too long-blocking the light from myself. I have a feeling that this will make sense to you. Like, for the first time it feels like I'm taking all of the air that flows freely all around me into my lungs completely. That's the only way I can describe it. Light and air. It's a joyous feeling. =) Now, I am getting more and more pull to piece together all the rest that I've seemed to block because I was so focused on one thing. I had no idea. But I guess that's how learning works, right? You can't get more to learn until you figure out what you've already been given. Thank you for the ideas about meditating. I had thought about going outside, but I live in a very urban area and even a park wouldn't work. But I just got the idea of going out to my little private yard at night when it's quiet and although it isn't ideal like a beautiful forest, it is outside on the grass and near little trees. I had thought that I can't put the dogs out, but I didn't think about putting myself out. LOL! So, thank you for your ideas-it helped me figure it out. Also, thank you for being so open about yourself and your life. You have given of yourself much more than I ever expected. I think your number's thing is very cool and congratulations in finding your love, I can feel that you are truly happy. How wonderful. =) Thanks again for everything and I'm sure that I will be seeking your guidance again... ~Summer Song
