Your Love is a Temple Treat it like a sacred place

Heartbreak is something we're all very familiar with. It's never fun, and though we do survive it, no one is sitting around wishing for it to come along again. Yet we all look for love, lasting love, the kind that doesn't make you feel like all your insides were just shattered with a jack hammer.

Ah, if Cupid had an evil twin brother, wouldn't it all make sense - but he doesn't. So just remember in love…during love, after love ends, before love can begin again - your love is always a temple.

Ritual
Maybe you're thinking, "My love is not a building." Fair enough but here's what it means. We all carry, give and receive love all the time. Love is not just an emotion that comes out of us or our hearts or minds. Our love is its own entity, and we need to treat it and respect is as such. And we need to make certain that others have the same respect for our love.

When you enter a place of worship, whether it is a church or Jewish temple, mosque or Buddhist temple, there is often a ritual when you enter that displays your respect. Perhaps you cover your head or you put blessed water on your forehead or light a candle and say or chant a prayer or meditation. In some way, you show respect to the divine.

Every day in everything you do, you must show yourself and your love that same respect. Maybe you don't feel comfortable enough to stare off into your mirror shouting I love you to your reflection (though it works for some people!) but try not being so hard on yourself at least one day a week. You don't have to be Stuart Smalley, but you get the gist. Pay homage to yourself and your love daily.

Respect
Places of worship demand respect. Whether you take off your shoes on entering or whether you maintain a clean sanctuary, we all know the disrespect and judgment that comes from those who desecrate places of worship. You wouldn't want to see graffiti on your local church or a fire set to the Buddhist temple in your city right? So don't let others desecrate your temple. If someone enters your space and shows that they are not fit to worship there, tell them kindly that you have too much respect for yourself to put up with that. We all give people the benefit of the doubt but if you are pouring your love out to someone who is consistently disappointing you, lying to you or breaking commitments, you are allowing your temple to be desecrated. Only you can put a stop to that.

Intruders
But still heartbreak happens. Maybe we saw it coming, maybe it came out of nowhere but someone you loved and trusted, someone you let into your temple, decided to go in and break all your beautiful vases and stomp on your fresh flowers, while lighting all the candles… setting fire to all the beautiful tapestries you'd thoughtfully hung in your temple. You get the picture.

Sure sometimes relationships don't work but there is a responsible respectful way to handle things and destroying a temple is not one of them. This can be so painful. All of a sudden our beautiful sanctuary is a mess. All the things we took so much care in have been damaged. So we mourn the wreckage, we sit there in disbelief, but eventually we need to clean up the mess.

Healing
When you're ready, get in there and pick up the pieces from the broken statues and glue them back together, find ways to fill your temple again with love. Talk to friends, write about it, meditate and let yourself heal. Ask yourself for forgiveness for taking a chance and forgive the person who hurt you. It sounds hard and often times all we do want is to wish ill on the other person, but if you can truly forgive them (which doesn't mean you have to talk to them in person or let them back in your life either) you can truly move on. Once you feel everything is whole again, you can begin to allow others in again. Take care to remember your love is divine and special.

Fate or Free Will? A look at what's predestined

Source: California Psychics

What's your philosophy of life? Do you believe that we are predestined to experience certain losses and tragedies in order to learn our lessons in this lifetime? Or, perhaps you get the feeling that the Universe just throws out random events to see how we'll react - and that's how life happens.

Have you ever wondered if the concept of free will can trump all - even change your destiny? These are some of the basic questions that callers ask our psychics to try to understand the tough breaks they may have to deal with in order to continue along their life journeys.

Not surprisingly, our psychics' answers to these deeply spiritual questions are mixed. Here's what they had to say:

Generally our intuitives follow the school of thought that everything happens for a reason. Their beliefs are based on their experiences - helping callers with issues, and then watching their futures play out. Many have a firm belief that we choose at least some of the basic circumstances which we are born into, and some of these circumstances, they also see, can be changed.

It is the losses and tragedies that help us understand life, explains TeriLynn ext. 9625. "How they work out, and how our lives unfold because of them is our journey through emotional and spiritual growth."

"I am a firm believer that we chart our lives beforehand, and have always viewed this earth as a school, so we can evolve on a soul level. We choose lessons that we can learn from," reports Alison ext. 9885.

Ariel ext. 9775 believes that we choose our parents and our character, explaining that, "through our character we make choices that become our destiny."

Anastasia ext. 5167, who is sure that she chose her parents and endured family trauma so that she could focus on healing in this lifetime, maintains that "our souls choose our key losses and tragedies before we come into this life, in order to learn lessons or resolve Karma."

Lemuria ext. 5114 adds that through her work with sprit guides she understands that we do choose our familes, as well as the abilities we'll need to do the work we are predestined to accomplish during our lifetimes.

"My guides have shown me that sometimes difficult events are chosen before we reincarnate," Tammy ext. 9380 reports. "However, not all events appear to be predestined. I believe that we all made our sacred contracts before we came here - contracts between us and our higher selves. What's very important to understand, I believe, is that there is no one other than ourselves holding us to this contract."

So how do we use our free will? How do we opt to make choices, when say, in a reading it appears that our destiny is moving us directly into more unhappiness, more stagnation, or more heartbreak? What can we do? Some soul choices can be changed with conscious awareness, many psychics say. Often we are offered choices, and at other times our growth may lead us to different beliefs that again offer us more choices as to how we will live out our lives. But the key is always that we need to be aware of what's going on in our lives. We have to see the choices, seize opportunities, and learn our lessons in order to change our lives.

"I definitely believe that those soul choices can be changed," Verbena ext. 9615 reports. "But you can't just change them because you want to avoid any difficulties. They can be changed if the soul recognizes an even higher and more wonderful possibility that can be achieved in this lifetime."

"That's because our free will has more power than a contract," Tammy points out. "The beauty of free will is that you can always override the outcome of a psychic reading that you don't like by making different choices. Look at all of the possible outcomes, should you decide to take different pathways. What will your parallel reality be? This is one way to use your readings to your best advantage.

Paisley ext. 9661 , who sees our spirit selves making these choices with our soul groups, those with whom we will be incarnating together in the next lifetime in order to learn our soul lessons… gives a strong yes to the possibility of changing our soul choices. "You just need to learn the lessons first. So instead of holding on to resentment and pain for an entire lifetime - for instance, because the man you love doesn't treat you well, let it go. Understand the lessons of detachment, forgiveness, and unconditional love."

It's when we learn from these difficult but divine assignments that we understand why we need to have these experiences in the first place. In other words, as Paisley points out, "if you can change your mind, you can change your life!"

Tap Into Summer Harmony

A look at the elements...
Source: California Psychics

The promise of summer stretches out before you - a time to renew and be
more in harmony with the world. The long days allow room for grace to
flow into our lives, like the warm rays from the sun. We become more
relaxed, and are more willing to take care of ourselves. Tasks that
seemed un-doable the rest of the year seem to finally be achievable.

Why not take advantage, and create more harmony in your life? Use the four astrological elements (Fire, Earth, Air, and Water) as a guide to help you find balance and deepen your bliss.

The four elements are the building blocks of life. Each sign has its assigned element, but each person usually has a combination of elements at work in their lives. Often, there is a preponderance of one or an absence of another. The goal is for all the elements to be in balance. It's easy to recognize which elements are strongest in your life, and which may be lacking. Just read the descriptions below, and you're on your way to creating greater harmony this summer!

Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
This is the spark of energy, the beginning of ideas, the element of self-expression. Fire warms and cooks the food that nourishes our bodies, and it gives us the energy to take action and create. If you are lacking Fire, you may often feel lethargic or lack conviction, and you often don't mind taking the back seat. To fuel the fire, consider what will give you energy. Make yourself an energy-rich meal. Take time this summer to re-investigate your passions. And the next time you have the opportunity to sit in the front seat - take it!

Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
Earth is dependable, practical, and concerned with material comfort and stability. When the Earth element is in balance with the other elements, growth in life and relationships is stable. If you've been having trouble getting organized and dealing with practical issues, or if you've been feeling ungrounded, you are likely Earth-deficient. Planting, being in nature, and walking are all activities that can help you get in touch with your more grounded side - and there's no better time to engage in them than over the summer months.

Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
Air brings us into the realm of ideas and the intellect. Where there is plenty of Air, there is openness and acceptance of multiple perspectives. If you have trouble communicating clearly or planning ahead, you may need more of the Air element in your life. Consider intellectual pursuits such as reading, taking a class, or doing things that nourish the creativity. Go for a sail. Fly a kite.Or try meditation: the deep breathing that goes along with it is a wonderful way to bring more Air into your life - literally!

Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
People with lots of Water interpret the world via their emotions. This is the element of intuition and feelings, psychic awareness, and compassion. People with a preponderance of water are often artistic, communicating best non-verbally - through photography, painting, dance, or music. If you feel like you've lost touch with your emotions or intuition, consider getting more in touch with this element. It's summer! Hit the beach, walk near the water, jump in the pool, practice the arts, or attend cultural events.
