Regarding A Few Posts from Readers…

Hi I got one comment from JoJo who was mad at me for talking to much about other things like religion. Oh, well, in my opinion all things are related and I like to push the envelope in regards to our assumptions about religion especially because it is often used as a crutch to do horrible things. It is also something most people are afraid to examine because of the “FEAR OF GOD!” which is a terrible ridiculous idea. One that serves organized religion well, keeps their 10% coming in and people’s minds shut off from having a relationship with God which is very sad.

Religion is also so often used to destroy others with, to invade countries, to feel righteous – all very bad things that lead to suffering and are the antithesis of spirituality. I think it’s sort of funny that people want me to just be a psychic and predict things. Where do these people think I get my information? I was given the gift because I have spent most of my lifetimes trained in different religious traditions. If anyone spends the vast majority of even one lifetime meditating and doing trance work they will get psychic information. I have memories of my past lives and believe me I earned these abilities both in other lifetimes and in the circumstances of this lifetime.

In this lifetime I have been trained in a religious tradition and have a ministerial credential. I have performed quite a few marriages in my years. It’s a strange idea that some people separate spirituality from psychic ability. It is impossible to have the “gift” and not connect with spirits, inter-dimensional beings (angels, fairies, guides, the higher self or whatever one wants to call it) and have flashes of God/Goddess’s love. Being a psychic is a modern form of shamanism. And shamans are in direct connection with the divine. Seriously, where else would the info come from? I guess that’s why some super right wing Christians think psychics are in league with the devil because their preachers tell them they are the only ones who can spread the TRUTH, while they misquote and misunderstood the bible (mostly Christ’s message, they seem to do well with the damnation part aka the Old Testament aka the Torah which isn’t supposed to be the Christian part but I guess I’m just getting fussy) and it’s perfectly fine to be like a lame parent and “Do as I say not as I do,” for many of these leaders, being major hypocrites (to say the least in many cases). Many of these “preachers” have the energy of a used car salesman on meth like Ted Haggard. Jeez, way before he came out he seemed strung out on coke and I would have better the deed to my house that he was getting some man action. Not that there would be anything wrong with him being gay or even having drug problems if he wasn’t running around damning everyone else to hell for having the same problems. It’s just disgusting the things these people do in the name of religion. They are so hateful to gay people and people with drug problems or any sort of problems which is so NOT CHRISTIAN! I know there are many really great Christan people who follow the words of Christ and who are loving and kind and pure. I wish they would speak up against these nut-jobbers who seem to be using the religion to just get rich and take advantage of people by dignifying the lowest human traits like racism, anger, hatred, war mongering, fear, etc. and find these bizarre ways to elevate this low level behavior to a spiritual club (this behavior is anything but spiritual or God-like unless one’s conception of God is that he’s a jealous, evil, mean-spirited, blood thirsty father figure who likes to create people to have sexual desire only to punish them for it, talk about Sadistic!) Christ said things like “He who is without sin cast the first stone, love thy neighbor as thyself, etc.” I mean we all know his teachings, they were not my Dad in heaven’s gonna kick your ass with his oozy if you don’t do what I say!

And anyone can be psychic if they want to spend a few lifetimes meditating and praying all the time. Or even if they want to devote  a big chunk of this life to knowing and understanding God/Goddess through meditation and trance work.

In modern organized religions God is often so formalized, intellectualized and distant that many priests and preachers don’t get to actually experience God directly but rather go through the prescription of the bible or other holy books. I have met priests and nuns who have a beatific quality, it’s obvious they are very connected to Spirit (most Buddhist monks and nuns are like this, they spend the vast majority of their time meditating). But western religions are not big on shamanistic practices or on forging ones own connection to the divine, but rather we are taught to blindly believe the bible and those religious figures who teach it. History has proven this to be problematic from the burning times of Europe when 25% of all women were murdered to our current crisis of Christian Crusaders blowing up abortion clinics, terrorizing doctors and building Mega Churches with our tax dollars for the military so they can get pumped up in their fight against Muslim extremists. Does anyone see the problem here? I’m sure 99.9% of you do.

So for those who don’t like the theological side of me, well, I’ll just have to say I’m given information by a greater force than myself and that includes where my spiritual beliefs come from, they come from a lifetime of connecting and praying, meditating and giving myself over to the Great Spirit to channel the truth. If it doesn’t jive with a book written more than 2,000 years ago, oh, well. And if it you’ve meditated on your own connection and what I say doesn’t feel right to you, I completely respect that as we all have our own spiritual paths. But the one thing I will never respect is paying someone else to do your spiritual work for you because not only does it not work, it actually causes spiritual devolvement. It is the most dangerous thing about organized religion which is why, ironically, I have more in common with most atheists and agnostics, in this regard, than I do people who blindly follow a specific faith without using their own higher self to guide them on that path.

All religions are the truth. It’s just the truth is buried inside the faith, and one must do the digging on his or her own to progress down the path. This is because religions become like a millennium long game of telephone, and by the time the information is given to you via multiple interpretations of the scriptures and political events that color or even edit either the meaning/tone or actual information in the scripture. Try reading all the different versions of the bible. Now imagine all those versions came from early translations that were translated from early translations that were passed down through oral tradition for thousands of years. As you can see the truth soon becomes a needle inside hundreds of tangled haystacks. Many of these haystacks manipulated (say sprayed different colors or covered in chemicals or whatever) by the culture and those in power at different points in history. The only way to find that needle is to close your eyes, meditate upon it and plug into the part of you that is one with God. If you do, you walk right through all the thousands of haystacks, right to the center of the one that has the needle inside it, as if it was never lost.

Many Blessings,

Denise

Oh, and to John who posted about Lincoln,

I’m from Illinois so I’m sure I didn’t get the whole story of Lincoln. I don’t know enough so I can’t argue with your information. I’m sure he was corrupt in some ways. But he did end slavery and that took some pretty big balls.

I had heard someone in passing say he was racist, but I think everyone was back then. People were segregated and whites had no real contact with African Americans and those who did would have had contact with either slaves or extremely poor and/or undereducated African Americans thus adding to people’s stupid assumptions.

The moral argument against slavery wasn’t that they believed in the equality of the African Americans, it was about the immorality of slavery itself. I think it’s a bit much to believe anyone back then was really that advanced in regards to their understanding of race or gender. I’m sure Lincoln was a total sexist, too. As the vast majority (99.99999999%)  would have been because it was the culture they were raised in where women and minorities were not given the same opportunities and of course if you limit people then they can’t help but live up to their culture’s limited expectations. It is only the rare few that are able to rise and then they are considered the “exceptions.”

There’s always a way for people to protect their ignorance. I thank you for your information about Lincoln. I’ll have to do more research about him.

Answering Readers’ Questions…

Here are a list of questions from readers. I’m going to answer all of them over the next couple of days so if your on this list check back. I may not have time to get to everyone tonight, but I will come back and answer you.

The first question is from Tjuania:

Tjuania in Desoto, Texas

I was wondering, do you know if there will be any other investigations againse Sarah Palin, and do you know what she will be doing on November 4, 2009???? I hope she is in Alaska, somewhere figuring out whether or not she will be impeached????

I had written a couple of posts about Sarah Palin just after the Republican convention when there were just inklings of her ethics trouble, mostly in the tabloids. I actually called in Palin-gate because the term trouper-gate hadn’t been coined yet and I figured every corrupt political event has to have a gate on the end of it because of Watergate. But anyway, her chart indicated that if she handled the investigation with arrogance and lying more skeletons were going to shake lose out of her closet. If she would have been amenable and somewhat modest, this would have blown over for her. But she has a lot of enemies up there (from her chart) and by being cocky and whipping crowds up as she has, she’s going to get some serious karmic retribution. Now, it won’t be before the election. It will happen over the next couple of years. She has Neptune conjuncting her sun and that can give you a certain glamour but it also causes delusion. It can also increase your psychic ability if you happen to be of that persuasion. But alas Sarah is not. This again is a karmic outer planet. And it is making some bad aspects to her chart. If you search the site you’ll find 2 articles about trouper gate (search Sarah Palin) in the tarot reading, which is probably the one you read, it said she would have an ethics violation but it wouldn’t be criminal. But her astrology (which is a much longer time frame I was looking at) showed that she won’t be out of the woods with just this one investigation and as I said earlier if she handled the way she has been handling it, it was going to lead to big trouble and possible impeachment.

Now will she be impeached? I’ll ask the tarot, but sometimes when things are too far in the future the tarot gives a maybe, but we’ll see here…

And the answer is:

Yes.

I have and have had a feeling that once this Neptune transit lifts off her sun she’s going to fade back into obscurity and this would make sense if she gets impeached. Neptune causes a lot of illusion, delusion and again glamour, all of which we are seeing in her case. If she had not abused her power and been a stand up gal, this transit would have ushered in the glamor, greater intuition and maybe so many opportunities she wouldn’t have known what to do with them, but she could have remained a player on the national stage. Alas, it seems, unlike what pundits and logic would dictate, she will be a super nova and burn out as fast as she has blasted into the scene.

She’s made a lot of her fellow politicians uncomfortable and there’s been some funny business it looks like with finances. Once she’s investigated their will be issues related to financial matters that are at the heart of her impeachment.

Noooo! Please, say it aint so! Will he a least hold his own during the last debate? Will the “Bradley” effect take place come Nov. 4?Please, say it aint so! About this last debate…I just hope he gets his policies across. Mccain/Palin need to have karma bit them in the butt!

Hi Curious,

I couldn’t agree more. I was surprised to see McCain “winning” according to the cards. But I think its more like the way Biden/Palin was a draw. McCain can’t really win at this point, he’s double digits behind Obama. But he can attack. And boy did it look like he was going to. So much so that Obama will not really be able to defend himself completely. 

Hey if any of you who work closely with Obama can give him this message. McCain’s going to really be nasty. He’s going to throw stuff at Obama that we haven’t seen before. McCain is coming up as the devil card, meaning he’s going to be abusive. 

I don’t think Obama has any idea how assaultive and aggressive McCain is going to be and this will throw him off a bit. Honestly though there isn’t much Obama will be able to do against this insanity, if he fights him, it won’t look good either. He’s just going to have to unwind the lies and mess McCain will make for the next couple of weeks after the debate. I think McCain may have some crazy surprise he’s going to throw at Obama. What that is? I don’t know. But it’s not going to be pretty. 

I just want to say that McCain will appeal to his base in this debate. Those people who live in fear, are xenophobic, hipocritical and nasty, their going to love this new take no prisoners McCain. 

I’m going to ask the tarot if this debate will effect McCain’s poll numbers:

Yes. We will see a rise in his numbers but mostly from the disaffected. It looks like those that will be attracted to this new side of McCain are very negative people. I’m being generous there, these people are very angry, confused, competitive, racist, hypocritical and have psychological problems. But there’s enough of them that it will make his numbers go up, so there you go.

Sandrine

Oh my Oh my !
So will Obama lose or win the election ?
Do you see clearer ?
Will he win the popular vote and lose the electoral one ?
Or will it be a landslide none the less ?

I asked the tarot if Obama would win by a landslide:

The answer, Maybe. But he’s going to have to work his butt off.

I’m worried that McCain is going to whip up the extreme racists in this country. I worry that Obama will win and someone will try to assassinate him before he’s sworn in. This is my greatest fear right now. I would blame the McCain campaign directly if this happened. This is the kind of fire and darkness McCain is stirring and will stir during the next debate. It is disgusting and very scary. I hope McCain gets it together and the other side of his personality takes over again and he reigns in this evil side. We’re going to see this evil side the next few weeks before the election. It’s sad that people actually will actually respond positively to this and like that in a leader. I guess that’s how Hitler won the election in Germany. I guess all McCain cares about is winning. He clearly has no ethics or scruples.

Hi Denise, Thank you again for all of your insights. You are really doing a therapist’s service trying to keep everyone from losing their minds! I have a philisophical question. You mentioned that you saw things progressing better with Obama than McCain… As new people, nations, and ideas are proposed and implemented, is it possible that choices could be made and the Dec 21-22 aspects could reflect a radical new approach instead of a destined Dow market implosion? I have to believe that we have the ability to alter both our fate and consequently destiny… I am praying for it everyday, for the highest good of the world. Thanks.

I am too, thank you for praying. Everyone should be right now.

You are right in that fate and destiny interact with free will which is why Einstein talked about different time streams. We literally create alternate futures depending on which way the Collective Unconscious (Jung’s term) shifts.

Right now we are truly on the precipice of choosing, hope, life, healing and upraised consciousness or fear, hatred, prejudice and the planets extinction. It really is that dramatic. I’ve been seeing these two time streams for the past 20 years. We’ve taken turns down each of these paths. But right now this next step is the one that jumps us off the cliff. If we make the wrong decision it may not be possible to save our world. Seriously. I am so worried.

I am ultimately an optomist and want to believe in the basic good of humanity. But I’m also old enough to see this isn’t always so. Fear and Love are equal forces, if they weren’t free will would have no meaning. If love always conquered all (like in the movies) then there would be no Pul Pot, no Hitler, Stalin, Jeffrey Dahmer, etc. And it would be easy to turn fear off and turn on the love we have for our family, friends and humanity on when it was needed. But this isn’t so.

Earth is a classroom with no supervision. We have teachers drop down every once in awhile but mostly we’re on our own to figure it out. I just pray there are enough of us who are spiritually evolved (meaning: compassionate, generous, loving, kind hearted, good spirited, helpful, polite, etc. not neccessarily religious) that we can make it across this threshold.

Often the 3 major Western religions have done more harm in the way of spiritual development than good. I’m not saying there aren’t very evolved and truly spiritual people who practice all religions, I’m saying that because these practices require a giving over of the self to a priest, rabbi, or imam instead of fostering a direct relationship to the divine, it encourages several infectious spiritual diseases. In the case of Christianity the idea that one can be forgiven for any and all sins by Christ and go to heaven just by believing in Christ takes away personal responsiblity which is why we see so much hypocracy among even the higher ups in the most radically judgemental churches. Basically, this is a form of spiritiual narcissism that fosters a sense of entitlement instead of what Christ meant to foster which was humanitarianism, compassion and love. I could go on, but it’s getting late and I have a lot to say about this subject matter, this is actually one of the main reasons why I wrote a 100,000 word speculative/spiritual fiction novel. I’ve posted the first chapter and will continue to discuss this and post the book.

Anyway, I’m going to turn in for the night and I’d love any feedback people might have about spirituality or religion. It would be nice to open up a real discussion about it rather then let it get relegated to the ultra right Christians vs. the Atheists. Not that there is anything wrong with either, but there is more to be said about all of this then is being represented by either side. Both have had the ear of the mainstream for a long time, it’s time to actually deconstruct all of it and move up another level.

One positive note to leave everyone on, we are in such a period of novelty and things are changing so fast that what seems horrible today will turn tomorrow. I can see Obama being sworn in as President. I can see it very clearly. But we all must work hard and not take this for granted. And once he wins, he better have the best secret service detail the world has ever known. That’s obvious. But now with McCain’s rhetoric, it’s going to be even more necessary.

Best wishes, blessings and good luck…

Here are the other questions I will answer tomorrow and the next day:

judy ann

With a active volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii causing severe air pollution and a bad real estate market here as well as everywhere else when would be the best time to sell a home And by the way your concern for others and your generosity are really wonderful judy

 

barry

Then perhaps you are seeing gold being confiscated by governments like the US government has done in the past. People would be forced to use paper currencies and thus no legit market for gold.

I assume you see the same for all precious metals, silver, platinum, as well as precious metal mining stocks?

 

Celli

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. Dont want to hog the show, but if you can answer these I’d be grateful. There are preduictions elsewhere that suggest that:

1) the elections might be stolen by fraud;

2) if this happens, there’s likely to be a huge riot of youth causing much loss of life.

What does the tarot say about the likelihoood of these two things happening?

Hi. I was wondering if McCain’s chart could cause a global depression how Rupert Murdoch’s chart, DOB: 3/11/31 interacts with the DOW since his company News Corp purchased it on 8/1/07, per the BBC news report. Might it be a collapse of just the DOW?
I was wondering how the Nasdaq chart might fair? It seems to holding up better against the Dow. Just looking for a glimmer of hope!
Thanks!

I’ve pretty much written these off as basket cases, after losing 70-95% on them. Do they have a future or not.

Thanks

Denise, thank you so much for answering my questions. I’m going to be purchasing a 15-20 minute session in the next 2 or 3 weeks, but I was wondering if you could just answer yes or no on this question: Within 25 years will the technology/medical advancements exist that will enable perfect to near-perfect facial skin regeneration?

Thanks so much,

Octavia
