An Angel is

A Course In Miracles describes an angel as a thought of God. For me – if you think of God as the Universe – the angels are like stars twinkling within it. They seem like individual sparkles but together they light up the world 

THE TRUTH ABOUT DEATH

Based on interviews with 283 children from two distinct cultures in Ecuador, the researchers say the findings suggest that our bias toward immortality is a part of human intuition that naturally emerges early in life.

And the part of us that is eternal, we believe, is not our skills or ability to reason, but rather our hopes, desires, and emotions. We are, in fact, what we feel.

• The opposite of death is not life. The opposite of death is birth. Life has no opposite.

Angel of Death

QUESTION: Who is the Angel of Death?

ANSWER:

The angel of death reflects man’s ambivalent nature toward death, as death is very difficult for many of us to cope with. The angel of death, or grim reaper as he is sometimes called, allows us to embody the concept of death into a tangible creature. The idea of the angel of death is thousands of years old. The angel of death is or has been identified with Satan, and it is said that when Eve touched the tree of knowledge, she perceived the angel of death, and thought: “Now I shall die, and God will create another wife for Adam.”

In the Bible, various names are applied to angelic beings. For example the Greek word angelos means messenger, either human or divine. In Jewish thought and lore, angels were referred to as bnei elohim or bnei elim, “children of God.” They were gifted with limited powers dependent upon the Master’s (God’s) decrees and orders. In 1 Chronicles 21:16, the angel of the Lord is described as standing between earth and heaven with a drawn sword in his hand: ”David looked up and saw the angel of the LORD standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand extended over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell facedown” Isaiah 37:36 says, “Then the angel of the LORD went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand men in the Assyrian camp. When the people got up the next morning — there were all the dead bodies!

It is comforting to know that even in the verses where death is personified, there is no reference to any angel being granted permanent responsibility for terminating life on Earth. 2 Samuel 24:16 says, “When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the LORD was grieved because of the calamity and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, ‘Enough! Withdraw your hand…’”

Many religions and cultures have formed an Angel of death:

• In Muslim and Islam theology, Azrael is the angel of death who is “forever writing in a large book and forever erasing what he writes: what he writes is the birth of man, what he erases is the name of the man at death.”
• In Judeo-christian lore, Michael, Gabriel, Sammael, and Sariel are all named as the angel of death.
• In Zoroastrianism, the angel of death is Mairya.
• In Babylon, it is Mot.
• In Rabbinical lore, there are 14 Angels of Death: Yetzerhara, Adriel, Yehudiam, Abaddon, Sammael, Azrael, Metatron, Gabriel, Mashhit, Hemah, Malach ha-mavet, Kafziel, Kesef, and Leviathan.
• In Falasha lore, it is Suriel.
• The Arabic angel is Azrael.

The study led by Natalie Emmons, a postdoctoral fellow at Boston University fits into a growing body of work examining the cognitive roots of religion. Although religion is a dominant force across cultures, science has made little headway in examining whether religious belief—such as the human tendency to believe in a creator—may actually be hardwired into our brains.

“This work shows that it’s possible for science to study religious belief,” says Deborah Kelemen, associate professor of psychology and co-author of the paper. “At the same time, it helps us understand some universal aspects of human cognition and the structure of the mind.”

Most studies on immortality or “eternalist” beliefs have focused on people’s views of the afterlife. Studies have found that both children and adults believe that bodily needs, such as hunger and thirst, end when people die, but mental capacities, such as thinking or feeling sad, continue in some form.

IS IT INTUITION?

But these afterlife studies leave one critical question unanswered: where do these beliefs come from? Researchers have long suspected that people develop ideas about the afterlife through cultural exposure, like television or movies, or through religious instruction.

Emmons thought perhaps these ideas of immortality actually emerge from our intuition. Just as children learn to talk without formal instruction, maybe they also intuit that part of their mind could exist apart from their body.

Emmons tackled this question by focusing on “prelife,” the period before conception, since few cultures have beliefs or views on the subject.

“By focusing on prelife, we could see if culture causes these beliefs to appear, or if they appear spontaneously,” says Emmons.

“I think it’s a brilliant idea,” says Paul Bloom, a professor of psychology and cognitive science at Yale University who was not involved with the study. “One persistent belief is that children learn these ideas through school or church. That’s what makes the prelife research so cool. It’s a very clever way to get at children’s beliefs on a topic where they aren’t given answers ahead of time.”

CHILDREN IN ECUADOR

Emmons interviewed children from an indigenous Shuar village in the Amazon Basin of Ecuador. She chose the group because they have no cultural prelife beliefs, and she suspected that indigenous children, who have regular exposure to birth and death through hunting and farming, would have a more rational, biologically based view of the time before they were conceived.

For comparison, she also interviewed children from an urban area near Quito, Ecuador. Most of the urban children were Roman Catholic, a religion that teaches that life begins only at conception. If cultural influences were paramount, reasoned Emmons, both urban and indigenous children should reject the idea of life before birth.

Emmons showed the children drawings of a baby, a young woman, and the same woman while pregnant, then asked a series of questions about the child’s abilities, thoughts and emotions during each period: as babies, in the womb, and before conception.

The results were surprising. Both groups gave remarkably similar answers, despite their radically different cultures. The children reasoned that their bodies didn’t exist before birth, and that they didn’t have the ability to think or remember.

However, both groups also said that their emotions and desires existed before they were born.

For example, while children generally reported that they didn’t have eyes and couldn’t see things before birth, they often reported being happy that they would soon meet their mother, or sad that they were apart from their family.

“They didn’t even realize they were contradicting themselves,” says Emmons. “Even kids who had biological knowledge about reproduction still seemed to think that they had existed in some sort of eternal form. And that form really seemed to be about emotions and desires.”

FEELINGS ARE FOREVER

• Do you value life as a thing of beauty?
  And it is just that.

Why would humans have evolved this seemingly universal belief in the eternal existence of our emotions? Emmons says that this human trait might be a by-product of our highly developed social reasoning.

“We’re really good at figuring out what people are thinking, what their emotions are, what their desires are,” she says. We tend to see people as the sum of their mental states, and desires and emotions may be particularly helpful when predicting their behavior.

Because this ability is so useful and so powerful, it flows over into other parts of our thinking. We sometimes see connections where potentially none exist, we hope there’s a master plan for the universe, we see purpose when there is none, and we imagine that a soul survives without a body.

These ideas, while nonscientific, are natural and deep-seated.

“I study these things for a living but even find myself defaulting to them. I know that my mind is a product of my brain but I still like to think of myself as something independent of my body,” says Emmons.

“We have the ability to reflect and reason scientifically, and we have the ability to reason based on our gut and intuition,” she adds. “And depending on the situation, one may be more useful than the other.”

Even angry, I worked with love, with God, and every spiritual resource that I want to teach you about. Love is the greatest force in nature.  Think about it!

A mother can lift a car with hysterical strength for her beloved child. 

Your emotions are gifts that hold special insights for you.

Anger, like every emotion, is deep and full of gifts for you.

One of the gifts that understanding my anger gave me is “I love people more than they love themselves.” I am grateful my anger showed that to me. 


I know with God’s help and with knowing how to navigate your energy, you can co-create in your reality the best possible outcome for all involved!

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EMOTIONS

So even as I was feeling anger, I was able to navigate getting God’s help to keep her here with us! 

The second time the Angel visited me, I was on the airplane back home to Los Angeles.

With God’s help, I saved a woman with full respiratory distress, possible heart attack, and low blood sugar for 5 hours in flight.

The last 2 hours the plane was too heavy to land anywhere to help her. So I kept administering the basics of what was available in flight. 

The pilot, all of the staff and everyone on the plane knew the Angel of Death was with us.

The pilot came to visit us at our seats several times keeping us informed of possible options for landing.

She was met by paramedics as soon as we landed at LAX. 

The paramedics took a full report and shuttled her off first before the rest of the passengers and crew disembarked.  

I am so grateful I was there to help… this retired MD,  Miracle Maker Academy Professor, Life Coach, and host of elite retreats with beloved Miracle Makers all over the world… and met the Angel of Death and got Compassion, Mercy, and more Life for both of those extraordinary beings!

I can’t wait until you get to learn for yourself how to do this and I can give you even more details!

In the mid-’90s,the CDC and Kaiser Permanentediscovered an exposure that dramatically increased the riskfor seven out of 10 of the leading causes of death in the United States.In high doses, it affects brain development,the immune system, hormonal systems,and even the way our DNA is read and transcribed.Folks who are exposed in very high doseshave triple the lifetime risk of heart disease and lung cancerand a 20-year difference in life expectancy.And yet, doctors today are not trained in routine screening or treatment.Now, the exposure I’m talking about is not a pesticide or a packaging chemical.It’s childhood trauma.Okay. What kind of trauma am I talking about here?I’m not talking about failing a test or losing a basketball game.I am talking about threats that are so severe or pervasivethat they literally get under our skin and change our physiology:things like abuse or neglect,or growing up with a parent who struggles with mental illnessor substance dependence.Now, for a long time,I viewed these things in the way I was trained to view them,either as a social problem — refer to social services –or as a mental health problem — refer to mental health services.And then something happened to make me rethink my entire approach.

>> Our brains develop and change throughout life,enabling us to learn and do new thingsand to adapt at every age.But childhood, and early childhood in particular,is the most sensitive and critical periodfor brain development.As a child interacts with the world, their experiences,both positive and negative, stimulate the brain,causing it to form neural pathways that lay the foundationfor lifelong cognitive and behavioral functioning.>> I like to think of brain development as the brain islike a, the site of a town so you can lay out roadwork.You’re laying down roads according to,in the brain’s case, according to experiences.So you have an experience and your brain laid down a path.And the more you have that experience,the bigger that path is going to get and the stronger,and then it’s paved, it becomes a real road in a highway.And you’re laying out the gridworkof the town according to your experiences.And that’s very much like the brain development.The more you have experiences,the stronger those electrical circuits are going to be.And that’s going to shape the way you think,and act, and view the world.>> Safe, stable, nurturing relationshipsand environments provide the contextfor healthy brain developmentwhen children have ample opportunitiesto learn and explore.In this setting, children acquire a range of experiencesthat stimulate different parts of the brain allowingfor healthy, balanced development.Some degree of adversity and stress is a normaland essential part of human developmentthat can help children learn how to react to future challenges.But a child who’s repeatedly exposed to adversitieslike abuse, neglect, or unstable relationshipsand environments may experience what’s known as toxic stressand this can disrupt brain development.>> Our experiences literally shape the way our brain isdeveloping and the brain architecture.So if you have a baby, a very young baby,who cries when they’re hungry and mother comes overand feeds the baby and helps the baby settle down,the baby goes back to sleep, that happens, what,five, ten times a day.And that is laid down as electrical circuits are laiddown in the brain and so the baby learns that you cry,you get fed, you sooth, and you go to sleep.And that experience is sort of coded into the brain,just like any other experience.So good experiences help the brain develop in a certain way.And if you have adverse experiences,that same baby cries, and cries, and criesand the parents are addicted to opiate drugs, let’s say.And they ignore the baby.The baby is left alone for ten hours in the dark.That baby’s brain is still developingbut it’s developing in a different way.Their experience is much differentand so it is developing in a way that says, “You can cry,and cry, and cry and escalatethat stress response as much as you want.Nothing is going to happen.”And the interpretation of that is not only is the brainrealizing that they’re not going to get soothed,but the child learns, and this is laid down in the brain,the child learns that the world is an unsafe place,that they are insignificant.There’s no one out there to help them.And that is all laid down in the brain as well.>> There are different forms of stressthat any individual is exposed to.There’s positive stressthat oftentimes is very short term but, you know,it’s something that everybody experiences.So even if you said, you know, waking up in the morning,going to work, going to school, that’s, you know,one form of stress, very short term but somethingthat your body has to adjust to.You can have very neutral forms of stressthat are a little bit longer term but things in which,you know, there are resources and support that help you adaptto it, whereas there’s other kinds of thingsthat are more long term kinds of negative stress and that’swhere toxic stress really fits into.Things in which person doesn’t have,or an individual does not have the kind of resourcesand support to try to deal with it and it has a negative effectin a long term consequences on that particular individual.So it’s toxic in the senseof the body responds to that stress.You know, one of the thingsthat is produced is a hormone called cortisoland that constant production of cortisol has a negative effecton brain development, on neurological development,and on other kinds of organs and tissues in the body.>> When we experience stress or encounter a threat,the brain triggers the body to produce hormonesthat activate a stress response, or what’s often referredto as the fight or flight response.In a moment of crisis, this response is necessaryand potentially life-saving.But stress can become toxicwhen the stress response system is activated frequentlyor for prolonged periods of time.If a child is constantly afraid, her body and brain will remainon high alert, preparing her to react should a threat return.Her body will continually produce stress hormonesand the stress response system will remain activatedin her brain, drawing energy away from other neural pathwaysin need of development or maintenance.In a child experiencing toxic stress, parts of the brainthat might be weakened are those regulating complex functionslike emotional self-regulation, social interactions,and abstract thinking.This may have consequences throughout life and can resultin social, behavioral, and cognitive challenges.>> Toxic stress implies a certain level of adversityand that often occurs early in life, within childhood.So children who have experienced adverse childhood experienceshave been found through very diligent research to beat increased risk for a number of long term problemswhen they reach adolescence and adulthood,and these problems really span multiple domains.They can be behavioral problems, emotional problems,and physical problems.So if you think about it,children who have had early adversity are at higher risk,much higher risk for major depression and suicidality,for anger management problems, for delinquencyand high risk behavior, for dropping out of school,for teen pregnancy, for runaway behavior, for adult criminality,and for liver disease, and lung disease,and heart disease among other things.So it has a profound long term impact potentially.>> And yet the brain is capable of healing and changing.Effective treatments can help those affectedby early adversity and give them a chance to heal from traumasand learn new ways to interpret and reactto stressors and other stimuli.Fortified by this information,we can shift the conversation away from one that blamesand punishes people for inappropriate reactionsand behaviors that developed in childhood dueto adversity and trauma.Instead, we can champion the need for expanded servicesand opportunities that help people overcome early adversity.And we can focus on ways to prevent abuse, neglect,and other challenges before they occur.>> I don’t want to imply that any childwho experiences early adversity is on a missionwhere they inevitably will experience these adverse affectslong term.That’s not the case at all.Many kids are resilient and so they are ableto overcome this adversity very early onand prevent the long term effects.Some adults will experience those long term effectsbut there are ways that we can help the adults.And very often — I work at a child sexual abuse clinic –and very often our parents will come in, the mother will come inand say, “My daughter was sexually abused,” and it comesout while I’m talking to herthat she was sexually abused as well.She never got therapy.So for 20 years she’s been living with this experienceand hasn’t told anyone.That’s not too late.She can still get help.She can still get therapy.She can still work through that.She can still kind of overcome that and move onand not have an increased risk of adversity.There are other social programs that are helpful.For example, programs that help people develop someof those skills that maybe they didn’t develop early on,that the skills are related to planning,controlling their emotions, and controlling their impulses,and getting hold of that automatic response,that jump to anger, getting hold of that, calming it down,learning how to do that can help tremendously.>> CDC is the nation’s public health agency and as such,are really interested in those factors, risk factors,and protective factors, that influence health.And it turns out that early adversity in the formof violence and other adverse events has a profound impacton health throughout the lifetime.Mental health impacting infectious diseasesas well as chronic diseases.So, as such, early adversity and the influenceof that is critically importantfrom the public health standpoint.And it’s strategic.If we can reduce or eliminate early adversity,we can have an enormous impact on healthof the U.S. population and, in fact,people around the world during the courseof their entire lives.>> In lesson two, you’ll learnabout the CDC-Kaiser Permanente Adverse Childhood ExperiencesStudy and about findings from the study that can aidin our efforts to prevent and treat ACE’s.

>> In this lesson, you’ll learn how exposure
to childhood adversity is linked to negative health outcomes
and reduced life opportunities, such as education,
employment, and income.
Much of what we know about the links between ACEs
and long-term outcomes is a result of the findings
from the CDC Kaiser Permanente Adverse Childhood Experiences
study, or the ACE study.
The ACE study was one of the largest investigations
of the associations between childhood adversities
and adult health and wellbeing.
The study was conducted
at a Kaiser Permanente health facility
in southern California from 1995 to 1997.
Over 17,000 participants over the age
of 18 received physical exams
and completed controversial surveys
about their childhood experiences
and their current health status and behaviors.
The study looked at 10 ACEs organized
into the following three categories.
One, abuse.
Two, neglect.
And three, household challenges.
Take a moment to review the 10 ACEs included
in the CDC Kaiser Permanente ACE study.

you’re a doctorand you see 100 kids that all drink from the same well,and 98 of them develop diarrhea,you can go ahead and write that prescriptionfor dose after dose after dose of antibiotics,or you can walk over and say, “What the hell is in this well?”So I began reading everything that I could get my hands onabout how exposure to adversityaffects the developing brains and bodies of children.And then one day, my colleague walked into my office,and he said, “Dr. Burke, have you seen this?”In his hand was a copy of a research studycalled the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study.That day changed my clinical practice and ultimately my career.The Adverse Childhood Experiences Studyis something that everybody needs to know about.It was done by Dr. Vince Felitti at Kaiser and Dr. Bob Anda at the CDC,and together, they asked 17,500 adults about their history of exposureto what they called “adverse childhood experiences,” or ACEs.Those include physical, emotional, or sexual abuse;physical or emotional neglect;parental mental illness, substance dependence, incarceration;parental separation or divorce;or domestic violence.For every yes, you would get a point on your ACE score.And then what they didwas they correlated these ACE scores against health outcomes.What they found was striking.Two things:Number one, ACEs are incredibly common.Sixty-seven percent of the population had at least one ACE,and 12.6 percent, one in eight, had four or more ACEs.The second thing that they foundwas that there was a dose-response relationshipbetween ACEs and health outcomes:the higher your ACE score, the worse your health outcomes.For a person with an ACE score of four or more,their relative risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseasewas two and a half times that of someone with an ACE score of zero.For hepatitis, it was also two and a half times.For depression, it was four and a half times.For suicidality, it was 12 times.A person with an ACE score of seven or morehad triple the lifetime risk of lung cancerand three and a half times the risk of ischemic heart disease,the number one killer in the United States of America.Well, of course this makes sense.Some people looked at this data and they said, “Come on.You have a rough childhood, you’re more likely to drink and smokeand do all these things that are going to ruin your health.This isn’t science. This is just bad behavior.”It turns out this is exactly where the science comes in.We now understand better than we ever have beforehow exposure to early adversityaffects the developing brains and bodies of children.It affects areas like the nucleus accumbens,the pleasure and reward center of the brainthat is implicated in substance dependence.It inhibits the prefrontal cortex,which is necessary for impulse control and executive function,a critical area for learning.And on MRI scans,we see measurable differences in the amygdala,the brain’s fear response center.So there are real neurologic reasonswhy folks exposed to high doses of adversityare more likely to engage in high-risk behavior,and that’s important to know.But it turns out that even if you don’t engage in any high-risk behavior,you’re still more likely to develop heart disease or cancer.The reason for this has to do with the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis,the brain’s and body’s stress response systemthat governs our fight-or-flight response.How does it work?Well, imagine you’re walking in the forest and you see a bear.Immediately, your hypothalamus sends a signal to your pituitary,which sends a signal to your adrenal gland that says,”Release stress hormones! Adrenaline! Cortisol!”And so your heart starts to pound,Your pupils dilate, your airways open up,and you are ready to either fight that bear or run from the bear.And that is wonderfulif you’re in a forest and there’s a bear.(Laughter)But the problem is what happens when the bear comes home every night,and this system is activated over and over and over again,and it goes from being adaptive, or life-saving,to maladaptive, or health-damaging.Children are especially sensitive to this repeated stress activation,because their brains and bodies are just developing.High doses of adversity not only affect brain structure and function,they affect the developing immune system,developing hormonal systems,and even the way our DNA is read and transcribed.So for me, this information threw my old training out the window,because when we understand the mechanism of a disease,when we know not only which pathways are disrupted, but how,then as doctors, it is our job to use this sciencefor prevention and treatment.That’s what we do.So in San Francisco, we created the Center for Youth Wellnessto prevent, screen and heal the impacts of ACEs and toxic stress.We started simply with routine screening of every one of our kidsat their regular physical,because I know that if my patient has an ACE score of 4,she’s two and a half times as likely to develop hepatitis or COPD,she’s four and half times as likely to become depressed,and she’s 12 times as likely to attempt to take her own lifeas my patient with zero ACEs.I know that when she’s in my exam room.For our patients who do screen positive,we have a multidisciplinary treatment team that works to reduce the dose of adversityand treat symptoms using best practices, including home visits, care coordination,mental health care, nutrition,holistic interventions, and yes, medication when necessary.But we also educate parents about the impacts of ACEs and toxic stressthe same way you would for covering electrical outlets, or lead poisoning,and we tailor the care of our asthmatics and our diabeticsin a way that recognizes that they may need more aggressive treatment,given the changes to their hormonal and immune systems.So the other thing that happens when you understand this scienceis that you want to shout it from the rooftops,because this isn’t just an issue for kids in Bayview.I figured the minute that everybody else heard about this,it would be routine screening, multi-disciplinary treatment teams,and it would be a race to the most effective clinical treatment protocols.Yeah. That did not happen.And that was a huge learning for me.What I had thought of as simply best clinical practiceI now understand to be a movement.In the words of Dr. Robert Block,the former President of the American Academy of Pediatrics,”Adverse childhood experiencesare the single greatest unaddressed public health threatfacing our nation today.”And for a lot of people, that’s a terrifying prospect.The scope and scale of the problem seems so large that it feels overwhelmingto think about how we might approach it.But for me, that’s actually where the hopes lies,because when we have the right framework,when we recognize this to be a public health crisis,then we can begin to use the right tool kit to come up with solutions.From tobacco to lead poisoning to HIV/AIDS,the United States actually has quite a strong track recordwith addressing public health problems,but replicating those successes with ACEs and toxic stressis going to take determination and commitment,and when I look at what our nation’s response has been so far,I wonder,why haven’t we taken this more seriously?You know, at first I thought that we marginalized the issuebecause it doesn’t apply to us.That’s an issue for those kids in those neighborhoods.Which is weird, because the data doesn’t bear that out.The original ACEs study was done in a populationthat was 70 percent Caucasian,70 percent college-educated.But then, the more I talked to folks,I’m beginning to think that maybe I had it completely backwards.If I were to ask how many people in this roomgrew up with a family member who suffered from mental illness,I bet a few hands would go up.And then if I were to ask how many folks had a parent who maybe drank too much,or who really believed that if you spare the rod, you spoil the child,I bet a few more hands would go up.Even in this room, this is an issue that touches many of us,and I am beginning to believe that we marginalize the issuebecause it does apply to us.Maybe it’s easier to see in other zip codesbecause we don’t want to look at it.We’d rather be sick.Fortunately, scientific advances and, frankly, economic realitiesmake that option less viable every day.The science is clear:Early adversity dramatically affects health across a lifetime.Today, we are beginning to understand how to interrupt the progressionfrom early adversity to disease and early death,and 30 years from now,the child who has a high ACE scoreand whose behavioral symptoms go unrecognized,whose asthma management is not connected,and who goes on to develop high blood pressureand early heart disease or cancerwill be just as anomalous as a six-month mortality from HIV/AIDS.People will look at that situation and say, “What the heck happened there?”This is treatable.This is beatable.The single most important thing that we need todayis the courage to look this problem in the faceand say, this is real and this is all of us.I believe that we are the movement.Thank you.

Practicing Emotional First Aid

Stress means -Reach out and connect with others!

7 ways to do so:

1. Pay attention to emotional pain — recognize it when it happens and work to treat it before it feels all-encompassing.
   The body evolved the sensation of physical pain to alert us that something is wrong and we need to address it. The same is true for emotional pain. If a rejection, failure or bad mood is not getting better, it means you’ve sustained a psychological wound and you need to treat it. For example, loneliness can be devastatingly damaging to your psychological and physical health, so when you or your friend or loved one is feeling socially or emotionally isolated, you need to take action.
2. Redirect your gut reaction when you fail.
   The nature of psychological wounds makes it easy for one to lead to another. Failure can often drive you to focus on what you can’t do instead of focusing on what you can. That can then make you less likely to perform at your best, which will make you even more focused on your shortcomings, and on the cycle goes. To stop this sort of emotional spiral, learn to ignore the post-failure “gut” reaction of feeling helpless and demoralized, and make a list of factors that you can control were you to try again. For instance, think about preparation and planning, and how you might improve each of them. This kind of exercise will reduce feelings of helplessness and improve your chances of future success.
3. Monitor and protect your self-esteem. When you feel like putting yourself down, take a moment to be compassionate to yourself.
   Self-esteem is like an emotional immune system that buffers you from emotional pain and strengthens your emotional resilience. As such, it is very important to monitor it and avoid putting yourself down, particularly when you are already hurting. One way to “heal” damaged self-esteem is to practice self-compassion. When you’re feeling critical of yourself, do the following exercise: imagine a dear friend is feeling bad about him or herself for similar reasons and write an email expressing compassion and support. Then read the email. Those are the messages you should be giving yourself.
4. When negative thoughts are taking over, disrupt them with positive distraction.
   When you replay distressing events in your mind without seeking new insight or trying to solve a problem, you’re just brooding, and that, especially when it becomes habitual, can lead to deeper psychological pain. The best way to disrupt unhealthy rumination is to distract yourself by engaging in a task that requires concentration (for example, do a Sudoku, complete a crossword, try to recall the names of the kids in your fifth grade class). Studies show that even two minutes of distraction will reduce the urge to focus on the negative unhealthily.
5. Find meaning in loss.
   Loss is a part of life, but it can scar us and keep us from moving forward if we don’t treat the emotional wounds it creates. If sufficient time has passed and you’re still struggling to move forward after a loss, you need to introduce a new way of thinking about it. Specifically, the most important thing you can do to ease your pain and recover is to find meaning in the loss and derive purpose from it. It might be hard, but think of what you might have gained from the loss (for instance, “I lost my spouse but I’ve become much closer to my kids”). Consider how you might gain or help others gain a new appreciation for life, or imagine the changes you could make that will help you live a life more aligned with your values and purpose.
6. Don’t let excessive guilt linger.
   Guilt can be useful. In small doses, it alerts you to take action to mend a problem in your relationship with another person. But excessive guilt is toxic, in that it wastes your emotional and intellectual energies, distracts you from other tasks, and prevents you from enjoying life. One of the best ways to resolve lingering guilt is to offer an effective apology. Yes, you might have tried apologizing previously, but apologies are more complex than we tend to realize. The crucial ingredient that every effective apology requires — and most standard apologies lack — is an “empathy statement.” In other words, your apology should focus less on explaining why you did what you did and more on how your actions (or inactions) impacted the other person. It is much easier to forgive someone when you feel they truly understand. By apologizing (even if for a second time), the other person is much more likely to convey authentic forgiveness and help your guilt dissolve.
7. Learn what treatments for emotional wounds work for you.
   Pay attention to yourself and learn how you, personally, deal with common emotional wounds. For instance, do you shrug them off, get really upset but recover quickly, get upset and recover slowly, squelch your feelings, or …? Use this analysis to help yourself understand which emotional first aid treatments work best for you in various situations (just as you would identify which of the many pain relievers on the shelves works best for you). The same goes for building emotional resilience. Try out various techniques and figure out which are easiest for you to implement and which tend to be most effective for you. But mostly, get into the habit of taking note of your psychological health on a regular basis — and especially after a stressful, difficult, or emotionally painful situation.

Yes, practicing emotional hygiene takes a little time and effort, but it will seriously elevate your entire quality of life. I promise.

“You have a responsibility to the people that care about you to be okay!

Your friends and family might love you, and sometimes they don’t always make for good therapists, intuitive, or give you accurate feedback!

“Welcome – Here I am – I needed help too!” -Dr. Sarah Larsen

Approximately one in six adults in the United States experiences mental health issues in any given year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Luckily, among those over 44 million Americans are many doctors, celebrities with access to the best, and scientist creating solutions! 

After all, friends and family aren’t always the best source of advice. Plus, there are many benefits of talking to a medical intuitive that you simply won’t get from a non-professional.

We’ve certainly come a long way when it comes to destigmatizing the world of mental illness, stress as the cause of di-ease, and family epigenetics as a major source of illness!.

Today, all generations are viewing therapy  as a crucial part of proactively maintaining their overall wellness’

Listen to psychologist Erika Martinez, (PsyD). “Because of our prevalent medical model and the way insurance is set up, mental health has been thought of as secondary or tertiary care. It’s never been used as preventive medicine. Now, prevention is what it’s all about.”

Is there still an undeniable stigma around medical intuitives and therapist?

Maybe some feel embarrassed to require help beyond what friends or family can provide, or maybe you — like Kanye — just have yet to understand the benefits of paying to talk to someone.

Thinking of reaching out? Please do – We have a free Monthly online meeting on zoom with the best experts with Doc. Dr. Sarah Larsen to help you.

Here are 8 points to consider:

1. Won’t judge you – No one will in our Miracle Making Community or You can count on truly judgment free help!

One of the biggest perks of having those committed to your wellness is that you can talk to them about literally anything without needing to filter yourself. Imagine having no fear of being judged. It’s basically one of the key requirements of the job.

You are beyond lucky if you have friends and family that do not judge you.

Yes, with the right session you too can discover how to keep judgement in check on whatever you’re going through.

2. If someone is selling products- he or she might be biased as that is the solution!

One trukty dedicated to the art of healing should be there to give the best possible guidance to you — and you alone. “The problem with friends, those that sell or advocate for certain products so they often just agree with you to make you feel better and then “push” or recommend a product!

Psychiatrist Scott Carroll, MD. also adds,

“Family, on the other hand, tends to advise you in ways to ‘protect you’ and minimize your risk, or [to] fit their beliefs about morals and how they think life should be lived,” he says.

These are the best-case scenarios. The worst case is that your friend or family member may actually want to control you or keep you in a pathological state for their benefit, he adds.

Follow your inner knowing. Trust your gut and reach out to someone who doesn’t have the same personal stake, so they can be completely honest and objective.

3. Hippocratic oath

While it’s important to only confide in those who you have complete trust in, so you don’t have to worry that something you said in confidence will be turned into gossip or repeated to the wrong person.

4. Doc Larsen retired from Allopathic Medicine to practice what she had at birth.
intuitive abilities sharpened by college, Medical School, Nongovernmental Organizational work as a doctor, seminary. She has over 25 years worth of research and training in Eastern and Western Medicine! Find someone like that

While your friend, may have taken a Psych 101 class, a coaching program etc without a degree, they simply don’t have the tools to help you take action. (And even if they did, they’d have bias). “Your friends and family can listen and provide support, but a clinician is trained to understand your psychological behaviors. They can help you uncover the why,” Cummins says.

And most importantly, they can also give you healthy coping getting to the root cause, so you can change your behaviors, or move past dysfunctional thoughts or difficult emotions, she adds.

5. With a Medical Intuitive, you don’t have to feel guilty about feeling “needy”

After all, you’re paying them (or insurance is)! Any relationship can turn toxic if one person feels like they’re constantly being “used” for support, but never supported in return. With a therapist, it’s not supposed to be a two-way street.

“As a therapist, you don’t expect anything back from your clients, except for them to just show up. With any other relationship you have in life, something is needed in return. If it’s your parents, they need you to be their child; if it’s a friend, they want that friendship back,” says Cummins.

6. Truly getting the impact of your challenge. Most are generational Challenges!

There’s nothing worse than going through a painful or traumatic experience and being told by a friend or family member that you should be “over it by now.”

The fact is, everyone experiences and manages life events differently. A therapist will understand that everyone is on their own timeline when it comes to getting over a breakup, settling into a new job, or processing any other obstacle, Cummins says.

And when it comes to other serious mental health issues like depression or anxiety — or even sub-clinical issues like loneliness or social anxiety — a therapist will never minimize or brush over your issues as not serious enough or worthy of attention like your friends or family may.

7. Talking to the wrong people might make you feel worse

“Some people have really difficult families. It may not be safe to share intimate struggles with them even if they are flesh and blood,” Martinez points out. “Others simply aren’t equipped with the ability to hear your story, and they won’t be able to empathize,” she says.

“When people share intimate struggles with those who haven’t earned the right to hear them, or who make them feel minimized, judged, or deprecated, it can do more damage than good,” she adds.

Of course, talking to select friends and family who do make you feel understood and validated can be helpful, especially if you just need a vent sesh about life stressors, says Carroll. “The irony is that you often have to go to therapy to figure out which of your friends and family are the best to talk to.”

8. They can help you grow as a person

Because of their training, a therapist is uniquely equipped to give you insight into your behaviors that can help you grow in ways that might be impossible on your own.

“For example, in the instance of a breakup, most people think talking to a therapist would be an overreaction. It’s not. It’s one of the healthiest things you can do,” says Martinez. “A breakup is fertile ground for personal growth. Yes, you are emotionally raw and vulnerable, but there’s so much potential there. It’s a chance for people to realize things about themselves they never would’ve realized had they simply talked to friends and family.”

My go-to remedy for emotional distress is EFT (emotional freedom technique).

This tapping procedure is related to accupressure and is quick, easy and doesn’t require anything but your fingers. I’ve been using it with excellent results for almost 10 years.

Are you ready to receive your full blessings and express your untapped potential by releasing your inherited patterns that hold you back and keep you stuck and thwarted?

Are you willing to experience life with a “versatile mind” and with less “literal-mindedness? Literal Mindedness vs Versatile Mind Making someone better is the best gift you can give them, you and humanity! The best teachers work through stories, parables, metaphors and analogies. Those with the disease of literal mindedness do not want to be told that there are multiple interpretations, do not want to be told that they will just have to decide for themselves. They want to be told what the facts are. But this is just a refusal to learn to evaluate. The fact is that the facts are always changing. Thursday, May 9 Venus pokes above the eastern horizon about an hour before sunrise. The brilliant planet dominates the predawn sky as the rosy glow heralding the Sun’s arrival grows brighter. Venus shines at magnitude –3.8, more than three times brighter than the second-brightest planet, Jupiter. When viewed through a telescope, the inner world shows a disk that spans 11″ and appears 90 percent lit. The way to get by has always been to develop our perceptions, our judgements, our intuitions, and to expect to be wrong from time to time; while there may be factual landmarks on the hard ground of limited experience, out on the ocean of real life what counts is to know how to navigate. Literal-mindedness resides in recalling facts or traditions and evaluating which are the most appropriate to any situation. True, this is a part of using the mind, but there is much more. What distinguishes us from chimpanzees is that complex but precise melange of thinking, feeling, evaluating, willing, fantasizing, visualizing and other more subtle functions. The obvious solution is to require everyone in the world to study the process of using their brains. Only when a student is certified by a committee of clearly superior individuals can he be licensed to marry, attend church, watch television, or perform any other activity that can be considered difficult or dangerous. Obviously, the literal-minded among the powers that be would never allow so fanciful a solution to become reality. And thank heavens for that, because complex systems are never successfully imposed; rather, they evolve. And the materials already exist out of which this complex cure for literal-mindedness can arise. They are waiting in the medicine cabinets of our minds like so many bottles of pills. Or perhaps I should say like potted herbs growing in our kitchen windows, since their gentle operation has none of the harsh side effects of pills and since various mixtures of these same cerebral herbs can serve as preventatives as well as cures. “Are you able to seek guidance from the stars and tap into your deeper intuitive knowing so you can navigate the realms of life that are more fluid and less solid? While studying astrology I have applied it to concrete cases many times. …The experiment is most suggestive to a versatile mind, unreliable in the hands of the unimaginative, and dangerous in the hands of a fool, as those intuitive methods always are.  If intelligently used the experiment is useful in cases where it is a matter of an opaque structure.  It often provides surprising insights. The most definite limit of the experiment is lack of intelligence and literal-mindedness of the observer.”  ~ Carl Jung After much study, Carl Jung concluded that in order to reap the benefit of astrology it was so important to have a versatile mind… a mind that is open and receptive to the unknown and ephemeral.  Join me with your open mind as I share how to minimize your bias and know your stars. I care about you having a great life because I know Oneness! We also want a thriving Earth, a just world, and for you to discover and embody the “Miraculous Adult” that you are! you’ll hear life topics next week that will help you know the time-tested practices of astrology. You’ll learn how to accept change as the Great Wheel of Life turns astrology art and spiritual adventure. Ariel Goodman Venus star rising and the geometry of astrology the mathematical geometry behind the logic of the astrology Venus in particular as a planet the sequence of with which it rotates around in its in its orbit creates a mathematical precision that is used in almost every form of art love to have you tell us a little bit more about that okay well we’re for that it fascinated me too yeah okay so the five pointed star of Venus is equivalent to a nautilus shell to a lot of seashells but let’s say the knot of it yeah yeah and everybody will recognize the nautilus shell because it’s it’s an iconic image and just as venus is an iconic image you know the painting by Botticelli of Venus The Birth of Venus where she’s floating to the shore on a seashell so it’s interesting that the mythology of Venus from homer and hesiod. The Birth of Venus floating came floating to the shore on a shell and then Botticelli painted it and 1500 or something and then but the real truth of it is Venus is orbit which we didn’t really prove scientifically until probably the 19th or 20th century is that she actually that orbit of Venus and Earth is equivalent to the same frequency mathematically is if you were to break down the proportions or the ratio of a nautilus shell it is the same exact thing this is the mathematical precision. this is a a measurement right 1.6 right is the measurement right it’s one point six because the orbit of Venus to earth is one point six the orbit of Venus is 584 days Earth is 365 days and when you divide one by the other you come up with the one point six and there’s a lot of other one point six in the orbit around the star the five pointed star in eight years makes one point six the musical scale makes one point six which Venus is really a part of there are five or is it eight yeah five black keys and eight white keys on a musical scale there are all kinds of artists designers architects mathematicians creators etc that photographers that use they that what you’ve probably heard of is the golden mean the golden mean yeah the golden mean the golden ratio and the golden section are all the same it’s that 1. 6 measurement which we see in almost every form of art we see. The Golden ratio is a special number found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer part. It is often symbolized using phi, after the 21st letter of the Greek alphabet. … Phi is usually rounded off to 1.618. It in nature as well we see it in pine cones we see it in Nautilus shells we see it in flower blossoms beehives beehives any number of things have this have this so this shows that there is a mathematical contingency mathematical connection logic to this same pattern right which is just amazing right really substantiates the fact that the universe really is a mathematical construct it’s the unfolding what I’ve come to see about it because this is what Venus and this earth dance is it’s the unfolding of organic life because the star itself is a fractal that reaches out and can create another star once it’s like one star attracts another and they hook up and then it attracts another and then another and it just keeps growing and growing and growing and it never ends and so it’s that it’s that attraction magnetism principle that’s present in it it’s the mating principle the life-giving principle each star point of Venus takes nine point two months from one to the next and that’s the human life the gestation development cycle so these things all connect and I find that to be fascinating and it’s they went Botticelli or any of these people were designed these famous buildings and these pieces are art they probably didn’t recognize that or didn’t maybe didn’t know that that was based on the Fibonacci sequence which is part of the what’s called what determines the golden sequence mm-hmm and the golden section but well they knew it was something they knew it was something cuz they didn’t rizal it maybe Fibonacci until Fibonacci came along and really I identified it but the Vitruvian Man was was an image that Leonardo da Vinci brought back that’s basically the way we look if we stand with their arms out and their legs out that’s cool yeah after the Truvia right it’s the same but you see in all those old architecture books exactly an art of da Vinci because the body the human body is all made out of fire ratio and that’s what Leonardo da Vinci was fascinated with the human body and so he would measure like the ratio between the hand and the whole arm are the this part of the arm to up to the social door between the lips and the to the whole forehead and I mean he had broke it down into so many different ways but it all came down to that point six or one point six which was this perfect harmony so the human being is actually a part of this five pointed star you know and what I love about it is that there’s this point time where these are all smaller components like you mentioned of the the arm the hand to the arm is a 1.6 I take the arm to the rest of the body its 1.6 so this is a formula that keeps recurring throughout all of nature and it’s tied to the the the transit and the cycle of Venus at the planet which is the planet that represents beauty and astrology right which is just fascinating it’s it’s a startlingly accurate right precise point that just if you don’t believe in astrology this will make you believe in astrology because the precision is so crisp you can’t deny it and then I realized it’s working with this five-pointed man or woman star Vitruvian figure venus figure now is that so we have our arms outstretched and we have our legs and we have our head but at the end of each of those is five fingers on each arm five toes on each leg and five senses so there’s again the fractal of the five and then more five and then who knows what else how that how that radiates out into into the universe it does speak to a master plan nothing yes right as if somebody is in charge here who has a master plan depending upon your persuasion in that regard but I find to be fascinating because it has such that great precision and you mentioned the word fie before pH I that is the Greek word or these are the Greek word for the golden mean or the golden ratio in the golden section so golden ratio golden mean golden section are all the same it’s all the just different words right but it refers to that one point six segments of the Fibonacci numbers right. The Golden Ratio, usually denoted by the Greek letter ? (phi), has the propensity of popping up where least expected, in a variety of natural phenomena and works of art. In its decimal representation, ? is equal to the never-repeating, never-ending number 1.6180339887… Where can such an irrational number show up in astronomy? First, it appears in an astronomical symbol. Most people use the pentagram — the five-pointed star (Figure 1) — as a symbol for a star (this reflects the twinkling of stars due to the Earth’s atmosphere). In the pentagram, in each one of the five side triangles, the ratio of the side to the base is precisely equal to ?. Second, when Plato wanted to discuss the cosmos as a whole in his celebrated Timaeus, he chose the dodecahedron (Figure 2) as the shape “which the god used for embroidering the constellations on the whole heaven.” The dodecahedron has the Golden Ratio written all over it. If you take a dodecahedron with an edge length of 1 unit, its volume is equal to 5?3/(6 – 2?) units. In a surprising turn of events, in 2003 a few cosmologists proposed that some observations of the “afterglow of creation” — the cosmic microwave background — could be explained if the universe is in fact finite, and shaped like a dodecahedron! It would have been truly amusing if Plato were right after all. However, more detailed analyses of the data indicate that the universe is infinite and geometrically flat.           Another intriguing area of astronomy in which the Golden Ratio made an unexpected appearance is that of the extreme objects we call black holes. Black holes warp space in their vicinity so much that in Einstein’s classical General Relativity, nothing can escape from them, not even light. However, when quantum effects are brought into the picture, black holes can lose energy via a process known as Hawking radiation. Black holes are characterized by two physical properties, their mass and their angular momentum (a measure of how fast they are spinning). Spinning black holes (called Kerr black holes, after the New Zealander physicist Roy Kerr) can exist in two states: one in which they heat up when they lose energy (negative specific heat), and one in which they cool down (positive specific heat). They can also transition from one state into the other, in the same way that water can freeze to form ice. Believe it or not, but the transition takes place when the square of the black hole mass (in the appropriate units) is precisely equal to ? times the square of its spin! Finally, it turns out that the Golden Ratio happens to be optimal for the design of certain radio telescopes. The goal of such telescopes is to place radio antennas so as to uniformly sample the visibility plane, avoiding overlapping and redundancy. The fact that the Golden Ratio is ideal for this task has already been “discovered” by many plants in their leaf arrangement. The leaves along a twig of a plant tend to grow in positions that would optimize their exposure to the Sun, air, and rain. This is best achieved when the angle between successive leaves equals the “Golden Angle” of 137.5 degrees, which is 360o/? subtracted from a full circle. One can show mathematically that the Golden Angle allows for the most efficient filling of space without overlapping. Amazing, isn’t it, for one number to connect black holes to the telescopes that observe them? shows a powerful jet emanating from the center of a disk surrounding the supermassive black hole at the heart of the galaxy M87. why is a Greek letter yes but it’s also a Greek number we have a lot of words in English that have Phi in it but it’s also a number of value a mathematical value and it’s also I think in the Greek alphabet there are you know the the the letters of the Greek alphabet actually are not just letters they all have there there’s an energy frequency there their frequencies right they mean more than just have a harmonic quality right exactly and I think the Hebrew alphabet is like this too like if people that have studied the Kabbalah you know each of these letters that represent the different pathways or gates or portals or whatever our energy centers so there’s a lot of ancient knowledge that was already embedded in certain things that just in our modern times we’ve kind of let go and forgotten about but I think now we’re able to go back to looking at some of these things because we have the computer technology and the scientific abilities to study things in much more my new detail yeah actually huge difference and I think that when we recognize this we really get to that point where I mentioned earlier that there is a logic to all of this to the universe which is stunning because it just brings into play so much of explain so many things I think having that explanation I think it really gives me you know it gives me reason to live I think it’s very heartening to have that kind of knowledge out there I think it’s also why we love Venus so much because it is that it because that if that value really does speak to something called harmony a principle called harmony don’t don’t we all want to be harmonious that would be the goal yes I mean don’t we want to live in a harmonious world don’t we want to be peaceful in our lives don’t we want to feel like we’re in the flow absolutely it’s also that frequency is the frequency of synchronicity you know how you always say gee I can’t believe that happened I would just happen to be in the right place at the right time or was we called coincidence right incidences myth is really synchronicity it’s really synchronicity and synchronicity in a sort of a summing up phrase. Balance is being able when events occur that seem implausible or seem unlikely to have occurred because they’re like how did that happen right boom right right exactly and that is and Carl Jung did a great deal of work on that exactly yeah it’s kind of an intersection it’s an intersection of you at a certain point in time and space where you where you get to that intersection where that kind of thing happens but if you look again at that figure of the nautilus shell and that’s the Fibonacci sequence and maybe to explain that to your audience I mean a lot of people have heard of the Fibonacci sequence but they don’t really know what it is okay it was defined by a man named Fibonacci but what it’s based on is just a simple set of numbers you start with zero and you go to the next value which is 1 okay and then you add 0 and 1 together and you get 2 and you add 1 and 2 together you get 3 so you’re always looking behind you at the last number that you were just at and add yourself to that and you create the next number so then the sequence goes to 5 8 13 21 and then you plot those points on a yeah you start connecting right the same right and I think we have a graphic 5 8 13 21 34 so that’s the organic unfoldment. of this particular seashell but that’s the Fibonacci sequence and that has been identified with not only how nature works and how we grow as human beings and life cycles repeat and so’s and how we expand but the whole evolutionary plan is is that so we’re all spiraling out on that same seat right right exactly and so and and one of the things about astrology which I always find interesting is that is that we are always history does repeat itself we do have these cycles that recur and we see them recurring what happens is that they recur in a different place in time so it’s like a giant Helios or a corkscrew or an event will happen and then they’ll go around the the as time moves forward is going in a circular time motion like that events will reoccur not at the same place at the same time but not in the same place and when the place changes all the circumstances change so we can see this in history when they say history repeats itself this is what they’re referring to mm-hmm it does yes but I think the fascinating thing for me about discovering that sequence and connecting it to Venus was that again it synched me up in my life I like I like to follow the rhythm of Venus in my own life every 9.2 months it changes star points which means it’s it’s it’s usually going from a yen signed to a yang RA yen phase to a Yang and the so we’re it’s the heartbeat of the cosmos it’s really so being in sync with that like what element is it in what you know we go from Gemini more more recently we went from Gemini as an evening star to Aries as a morning star and then it’ll go to Capricorn and so many times it brings along the the attributes of that sign that’s right so if you’re in an area sign you’re being a very aggressive right well the whole world is kind of operating under that you know we have the planets operating all the time and everybody’s looking at the planets and what they’re doing on a day to day basis but in the background behind the planets we have this very slow-moving Venus clock that is just kind of ticking away a very slow slow mechanism that’s moving in the background and every now and then again principle of synchronicity it syncs up with where a planet is or was it a very important point in your own chart and it allows that feeling of wow I was in the right place at the right time to have these circumstances and that works in both good and bad you could say I suppose probably times that people wonder they’re in the wrong place at the wrong time yes exactly but I think being in tune with this and knowing where these points are in your life allows you to be more cognizant I think people have to be I’ve always found that if you’re more attuned to the possibility of synchronicity that they are more likely to occur I think that we are not always aware of sometimes in and and the types of events that can happen through synchronicity may appear to be minor but they actually are in plural larger meaning behind them mm-hmm don’t you think there seems to be I think that you have to be I have to have a little antenna up it says looking for synchronistic events mm-hmm and then when they occur they’re just yeah and then we want more it’s kind of like okay I liked that do that again hit me with that one again I mean it really is a fascinating if anybody’s ever had us and you’ll know what a synchronistic event is it is I always give the example supposing you’re at a party and you meet somebody they talk talking about a book or whatever you recommend you make a mental note of the book and then you disappear and you know you go across country to a different part of the world then somebody who you’ve never met before mentions the same book and you say bah that’s a synchronistic offense to different people I always think it has to be two extraneous sequences or events that come together boom to create the synchronistic event you pay attention that’s a very simplistic idea like my example rather very simplistic example but still it does give the idea of coincidence instances are good things to have happen or I I liked the rule of three with synchronicity you’re reading a book and this has happened to me a few times you’re reading I’m reading a passage in a book and the next day I find myself in a very almost playing out the same scene in my life that I just read about in the book the night before and then a third thing happens where I’m someplace else and somebody mentions oh my friend was telling me they were reading this book and it’s the same book you just read and that you just played out and now you’ve heard it a third time and then you have to wonder wait a minute. right yes and when they happen they are they are thrilling they are very thrilling right and that you think is also tied to the Fibranocci number and this sort of this sequence of events and times and it’s or that yes clock-like precision of these yeah and Davina Starr is attuned to that cycle yeah I don’t I know that people that work in the financial markets use the Fibonacci a sequence of numbers to because they have determined that the markets work that way because if organic well yeah if you know how to use it I mean if organic life works that way if we grow and expand. And if rivers flow in and Forests grow in and leaves on a tree and flowers unfold and bloom in that Phi ratio pattern or Fibonacci sequence and it really is organic life right. The more technical this world becomes, the more obsessed we become with our phones, our status, our money, the less we realize how great we really have it. The vast majority of people bitch and moan about things that don’t matter. The fact you’re alive, healthy, and able to work is literally a miracle. Do you realize what has to happen for you to be born, and the chances you came out as you? The odds of you being born as you are about 1 in 400 trillion, or more. Take a second and think about that, and put a smile on your face, you fucking miracle you… While we punch our desks for slow internet connection or a lousy hair day, let’s remember there are people out there that can’t eat, live under a bridge, die of disease, and will never know a life of prosperity. Every year you age, you get wiser, even if you don’t feel it, or see it. You might be 30 and still lost, you might be 22 and think your life sucks. You have a choice, literally, to choose to be happy. To choose positivity. The one thing you have control over is hustle. If you want it, hustle, get it. Whatever that “it” may be. Unfortunately, people aren’t grateful like they used to be. And if we could be more grateful, you naturally become happier, and even more grateful for things to come. You woke up this morning? Be happy. Smile and be grateful. A guy I look up to, Gary Vaynerchuk, talks often about regret. He says to go to a nursing home, and talk to folks in their 90s and look at the regret in their eyes. The wish that they had tried to start that business, to talk to their parents more, to laugh more, to spend more quality time with the people they love, to not sweat the small stuff, but to appreciate all you have, and even appreciate all you don’t have. When you see regret in a person’s eyes as death approaches, you see the realest version of pain. Regardless of how difficult a time you may be going through, realize someone out there is going through more. Regardless of how hard you work, realize someone is working harder to take if from you. Life is fucking beautiful, even when it isn’t. No matter the shit hand you’re dealt, find the silver lining. Find the avenue in that tumultuous road to make it out better than you started. If you work hard, and treat people the right way good things will happen. I don’t care what it is you believe in; whether that be God, or karma, or aliens, working hard and treating people the right way will always have you getting to where you want to be. That goes for work, and relationships. So, since you now know you’re actually a miracle, grab life by the balls and make it your bitch. so what happens when you look at your life would you use for the determinating factors for that when would you say the beginning is and then the year in a 1.60 later it will occur what would you use for some sort of a major beginning or a demarcation of some sort like a well in Venus’s case it is every one point six years and that is Phi mmm I mean that simply is five one point six women do what would be the determining factor what what determines happiness well when Venus begins to go retrograde she and which she does every one point six years she is slowing down in her orbit and now at the middle part of the retrograde like halfway between the beginning and end of the retrograde she meets with earth in an exact conjunction are very close conjunction called Kazemi to create a star point and at that point the seed is planted for the beginning of The author Gregg Braden fractal time which is a beautiful book and he talked about Venus in the 1.6 cycle but he was actually suggesting that you can take any important event in your life that’s happened like take the most important most extraordinary event of your life and figure out exactly how old you were how many years how many months and then you can add a 1.6 equivalent to it and you’re likely to get another really big important event one point six from that Wow and then you keep going one point six from that so does keep expanding 584 it’s not always 584 but based on that graphic you were showing earlier of the numbers remember the five the eighth the 13 and there it is the 21 all right so when you’re when you’re looking at those numbers he’s got the instructions in the book I can’t tell you he wasn’t timing it exactly from Venus retrograde to Venus retrograde the way that I do so it works and it works in a lot of different ways this Venus synchronization mechanism is finely tuned like a like a the most incredibly program Swiss clock it is it is so precise it’s very on different levels and now I’m calling it actually the Venus clock this Venus star when I first got all this information and wrote it down it is still is a Venus star because it’s a five-pointed star but the way it moves is it is like a slow moving clock working. in the back backdrop of our life always clicking away and those synchronistic events I think are important so I think knowing these points in an individual astrology chart your own personal life is irrelevant because it can be moments of great decisions at moments of great progress moments of great discovery moments of great creation creativity and to be cognizant of them particular birth time because there are moments when you’re going to have these points hitting now now point I want to make is or ask about is when you do this does the where we are in the world have a specific attribute to your own personal chart so if you are in a Venus star you have your Venus star chart and a point comes up where the Sun goes over that or a major planet goes over that point is it activated and yes so for instance maybe you’ll look at your birth chart and you’ll say well I don’t really have all you know points connecting these different points since I don’t have planets and those particular points but hey if you live a certain to a certain age you’re likely I’ve seen this over and over again you’re likely to have the star hit not just one planet but two points of the star hit two planets at the exact same time in your life or sometimes with people three points and I’ll get to that part of their life when I’ll say gee this star was the Capricorn star was sitting near Jupiter and the airy star was hitting your mercury and the Gemini star was hitting your Venus or your son let’s say and something must have really taken plate and that’s in an eight year period because the pentagram of Venus those degrees are usually good for about eight years and I’ll say something like wow this must have been in a really big time of your life very incredible that you would have three hits on the star in this particular few year period and that’s usually the responses oh yes everything happened in my life at that time that influenced my life that put me on the road that I’m on now that changed everything for me that wow that’s first thing and you can tie that back to the date and see exactly what it was when you think of someone like you mentioned Oprah earlier when you think of someone like Oprah obviously she’s a hard-working individual but a lot of what happened to her you think is based on her alignment of this Kazemi in her chart whereby she was sort of gifted with this sort of destiny of sorts would you call it I would call it a destiny for sure she was born at that Venus Kazemi very powerful in Aquarius she has been the queen of the air wave she surpassed broken and surpassed every record on the books for you no no I miss women nods were stuck together me being a woman being exactly a report from a poor part of the country in the south that she didn’t really have any advantages special advantages or opportunities when she was growing up this was her talent her what she came in with it birth her destiny you could call it but there it was Sun Venus and the Venus star point the triple crown all lined up at 9 degrees Aquarius at the time of her birth and there are similar figures to that that I’ve looked at that maybe had better advantages growing up but still became you know just shot into the stratosphere of you know incredible talent it does make you wonder I mean you have to stop and think about you know we all know that astrology is about timing obviously and that’s the basis of the whole astrological concept but when you see someone such as she you can’t help but wonder you know I mean she obviously had to do her work but you know she really was at the right place at the right time well we’re all doing our work we’re all hard-working and in the sense of things but but then you think okay but but she really did that so another person bore at the same time as her well you know what’s interesting exactly four years later when the Venus Kazemi came back to Aquarius and almost on the same date maybe a couple days later but four years later on that Kazemi Ellen DeGeneres was born it was those who’s another major media presence and both of them broke major records I mean when you think about the fact that it was Aquarius it wasn’t just that they were women and they broke through a lot of glass ceilings in the broadcasting brought Oprah for sure and the broad testing industry and talk shows and all of that and media empire that she’s inherited but Ellen had a similar kind of leadership quality breakthrough when she openly announced that she was gay she was the first major TV personality to announce that and I think maybe at first it didn’t really exactly work in her favor and maybe there was you know some backlash to that but it didn’t take long for her realizing that coming out with who her her real self who she was now the difference between Oprah and Ellen is that Oprah is an evening star and Ellen is a morning star and I often use this example when I’m talking about it because morning and evening are running on – they have almost two different types of machines that are driving them that makes perfect sense because of the timing and where they were born and so but the fact that the two of them and that course the four and the four makes the eight which gives you that same cycle that is phenomenal to me I didn’t realize that about Ellen that is really right perfect example of what it would bribe that’s a mathematical precision right Wow and it’s amazing we’ve been talking today with Ariel Guttman she’s the author of Venus star rise and we had around earlier to talk about the particular Venus star rising as well but more importantly we were talking about the the logic and the geometry of the universe which is much of which is explained in this book Venus star rising I encourage you to look up her website which is on the screen up there and we will see her name come up and she can do a fascinating reading and show you where your Venus star points are in your life and hopefully you can use them to your great advantage I think you’ll find creative people have this as you mentioned I think Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres are fascinating examples of that so when there’s hundreds of us it’s a tap in my head I’m I it’s been great for everyone thank you having
