The Alchemy of Transforming Fear BY

A D O R A W I N Q U I S T, A L C H E M I S T

Fear, that little 4 letter word with a big response from an emotional and physiological perspective. Fear is often a precursor to anxiety and vice versa. To differentiate and simplify, fear is typically an emotional response to a known threat that offers important information in relation to preserving our safety. Anxiety tends to arise from unknown and uncertain potentials in life, and it can be acute or chronic in nature. Anxiety can relate to past traumatic experiences or current day stressors, such as economic hardships, physical health concerns (our own or our loved ones), relationships, and career challenges. Fear and anxiety can elevate stress and cortisol levels in the body, creating physiological and emotional imbalances, affect our ability to connect authentically with ourselves, and hinder our ability to make clear decisions. The good news? We don’t have to be ruled by our fear and anxiety. a

Consider these points to assist you with your anxieties:

• • • • • • •

It is the mind-body connection guiding you with information about some aspect of your life (body, mind, spirit) Embrace your anxieties as emissaries of healing and transformation by practicing acceptance, love and compassion for you and your unique journey. Cultivate a daily gratitude practice to focus on all of your blessings. Meditate for at least 5 minutes a day to expand, connect and commune with an energy greater than your own. Prayer and other sacred intentional practices expand our understanding. Inhale one drop of pure Madagascar patchouli essential oil (available on adorawinquist.com) to harness runaway negative thinking patterns, connect deeply to your body and the earth, and alleviate anxious feelings. Invite the practice of self love into your breath. Fear and love cannot exist in the same breath. We choose love and engage in drawing in full deep breathes from the lower belly, fear and anxiety simply dissolve.

Combine these affirmations with your daily intentions:

• • •

I am safe and healthy in my body and my being. I am calm, centered and balanced. I make clear decisions that serve my highest good.

Fear as seen through the Eyes of a Medical Intuitive BY

D R . M A R C I A K R U E G E R , DC

The past two years have provided so many opportunities for fear to manifest in all areas of our lives. The pandemic has impacted the physical, mental, and emotional components of our bodies. As a medical intuitive/healer/chiropractor, I find fear in every molecule, organ, and system of the body. It can manifest as muscle tension (headaches, neck pain, low back pain, jaw pain), skin rashes, sleep deprivation, weight gain/loss, a feeling of chaos, anxiety or depression and overall stress. Fear and anxiety cause a decrease in immune system efficiency. The stress of the pandemic, the use of chemicals, poor nutrition choices, lack of sunshine, lack of sleep and lack of human contact makes it harder for the body to fight and maintain homeostasis. That is where I have influence on clients’ bodies through adjustments, energy work, wellness and nutrition education and grace. I approach clients, whether vaccinated or not, with an open mind and believe everyone gets to decide what’s right for them.

The wonderful thing about informed consent is that two people when presented with the same information, can make two completely different choices and neither of them is right nor wrong. That is what medical freedom is and should be! When I adjust clients, it realigns the nervous system, the control center for the whole body. It supports your immune system by resetting the neurological pathways to and from the brain. The energy work I provide can boost healing chemicals, reduce inflammation, and send the body a signal to repair and regenerate itself. I suggest natural supplements, a balance of work and play, and random acts of kindness. Get outside and be adventurous! Nature has a positive effect on happiness and exercise will help with fear. Kindness is a powerful pillar of happiness and doesn’t cost anything. We can transform ourselves at a molecular level through adjustments, energy healing, meditation and making better life choices. Stay true to yourself and others to instill a spirit of trust. Education and information can help release fears, change our beliefs, and transform everything.

Kicking Through Fear BY

L O R I P A L M , C E O C O R E P A S S I O N . CO M

Fear can stop us in our tracks, trapping us in negative energies from the past. It can also be the impetus to drive us into our destiny… propelling us into our future. At its core, fear manifests in the mind, resulting in uneasiness, anxiety, and worry about the unknown. And as uncomfortable as it can be, maybe fear plays an important role in our lives. It reminds me of the spring equinox... After being surrounded in darkness all winter, spring moves us into a new state of being. We are waking up and emerging into the dark. At the equinox, there is a balance of dark and light. But as tempting as the light can be, sometimes we want to stay in the dark so we don't have to face our new (unknown) future. I have been at the crossroads of fear at different times in my life. I grew up in the energy of fear. My mother was a strong, take-charge person, and didn’t look like a fearful person. But underneath she had many fears, especially of being alone. Growing up in this loving home I was very fortunate to have had no actual physical experiences of fear. Yet in my early adult years, I still sensed and carried my mother’s fear.

Many years ago, I was at the crossroads of encountering my intense fear. There was a woman raped and badly beaten a few blocks from where I lived with my young family. My fear was no longer underneath but rose to the surface with a vengeance. I stayed in my fear for several days not wanting to even leave my house. I felt powerless. I knew this was not how I wanted to live. It was time for me to move my fears into the light. It was time to balance my dark fears with the light of confidence. An inner voice message came to me. I need to take karate to learn how to defend myself. I was the least likely person to study karate. I had never been in a physical fight and was not active in sports. First in my inner being, then in my physical body. I learned how to use my energy and become aware of my environment. I learned how to kick through boards and break bricks and how to fight. Once I learned how to fight, I also learned that I didn’t have to fight to be confident and powerful. It took me seven years to earn my black belt in karate. Now if the dark of fear comes into my life, I remember that I can balance it with my light of confidence. A new adventure of love and light begins! a

Mind-Body Insight on the Impact of Fear BY

S C H A O N B L O D G E T T, CCP, BTAT

In Holistic Medicine, there is a saying: “Fear eats the light – Light dissipates Fear.” How do we see this impact the mind (information), body (matter), soul (energy)? Think of the last time something scared or startled you. Many people’s instinct is to jump just slightly, then maybe to run the other direction - or possibly at it to fight. That moment when you jumped just slightly is Kidney 1 (Ki1) disconnecting from the ground energy. If it doesn’t reconnect, or you’re unable to process the trauma around that fear, over time we theoretically would see issues through the Kidney system. Some of the first signs of this are the shoulders slumped forward - partially a subconscious attempt to protect the heart, lungs and other vital organs in the chest - though also physical strength to stand tall is starting to diminish.

Jurema Silva BRAZILIAN SOUL HEALER Transformational Speaker Spiritual Leader & Mentor For appointments: 320-260-7305 Jurema@JuremaSilva.com

JUREMASILVA.COM

Areas that are connected to that vital Kidney Chi (Qi) are obviously the kidneys, but also the shoulders, knees, and bones. Remember the old saying after someone was frightened: “That chilled me to the bone”. So, how can you counter this, naturally? One way is by activating your Kidney Chi and the Ki1 point (lots of root work). Another is by bringing more light into the whole being (think Sun, or more esoterically, Tiphareth). Esogetic Holistic Medicine (Colorpuncture) has several therapies for issues around fear. One therapy is done with specific brain frequencies and colored light, or alternatively crystals, applied to specific points located on the shoulders and knees. Another, utilizing the Love Disk (Love = Light = Life) is centered over the Kidney Poles as well as the “Pain Clock”. Another interesting therapy which is especially useful for “original” fear that inhibits you from shining out into the world, is a therapy that uses Pericardium 8 in the center of the palm. a

Soul Painting AN EXPLORATION OF THE SPIRITUAL REALM

D

That was the first time Risë saw her deceased friend in her mind’s eye. Irene was there, looking over the entire event, smiling.

by Sara Winiecki

At the time, Risë could hardly believe what she was seeing, but she soon found out that wasn’t the last time her late friend would pay her a friendly visit.

is a Soul Painting Artist who channels the highest energy of the Universe into her artwork. She’s dubbed this profoundly intuitive process, Lovitude™, meaning Love and Gratitude Inspired by Spirit. Anne was inspired to start painting in 2017 after receiving messages from a former colleague and friend, Irene, who died within three weeks after being diagnosed with cancer. When Irene became sick, Anne and another mutual friend, Risë Severson Kasmirski, spent as much time together as they could. Anne and Risë remember visiting Irene in hospice… “I asked Irene if she would please come back. I wanted to see the colors. I wanted to know what she was doing on the other side. I wanted to know everything that was happening over there,” Risë recalls. After Irene passed, Risë volunteered to do the eulogy at her celebration of life.

The Invitation by Anne Pryor

Over the next few months, Risë saw Irene all the time… riding in the car with her, sitting on the couch in her house, standing in crowds of people, and eventually in her dreams. Flash forwards a year later, Risë and Anne sought out spiritual guidance from an intuitive. They each booked separate individual sessions, but to their surprise, Irene came through with messages for both of them. Risë was encouraged to journal and write a book describing her mystical

experiences with the other side. Anne’s message from Irene was more cryptic:

channeling spirit through painting. Her unusual technique is created with ink, inspired by her breath (no paint brushes), and essential oils, including Frankincense, Myrrh. Each painting is infused with gold and painted on clear plastic and other media. Her paintings have been said to elucidate, awaken, and activate souls. Her images have been featured worldwide: IANDS (International Association of Near-Death Society), the Memorial Service of Justine Ruszczyk Damond, the Minneapolis woman killed by a Minneapolis police officer, gifted to Matthew Desmond, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author of “Evicted,” at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, and enjoyed in collections globally.

Drip ink on plastic and blow... but make em’ big. At first, the message didn’t make any sense, but Anne began to find clarity over time. Irene’s message was illuding to the thank you notes Anne used to make using little blobs of watercolor. Irene wanted Anne to paint. And just like that, Anne, a woman who was never an artist before, began

So, how do we know what to change or transform for ourselves?

Let’s join hands and do this work together. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for! a MAUREEN HIGGINS, MA, assists clients in transforming the past, attaining their personal and professional goals and moving into higher consciousness – a perception and attitude above the normal human one. Wings of Freedom is an alternative counseling and coaching practice offering energetic healing audios and workshops. See her website at wingsoffreedom.com.

If you want to know where to focus for growth, look at what triggers you in your environment and relationships. Whatever bothers you the most is the area that needs the most inner work and healing. Our triggers are tied to what we believe and value. The more rigid our belief systems, the less acceptance and love we have for those who do not fit within them. Some people will even turn away from loved ones who do not agree with the dogmas they feel are important. This too reflects our inner state of being and is another way to identify what’s in need of healing. Deep down we all struggle with core issues of rejection, abandonment, and loss, and we all have a storyline or sub issues attached to these three collective core issues. The crux of these story lines is that we all feel a lack of self-love and a lack of self-confidence on some level. This in turn keeps us tied into the collective dogmas and programming, which makes it hard for us to feel loved and secure. The challenge is that sticking with the divisive dogmas doesn’t breed true love and connection––it breeds a false state of security from which we need to heal.

Here’s How We Can Heal Healing takes inner work. We need to learn to let go of the old beliefs, memories, emotions, patterns, hurts, and behaviors that no longer serve us. Each issue needs to be healed on a mental, emotional, and physical level––and they don’t necessarily all heal at the same time or in a linear fashion. It takes time to release and heal the core issues we’ve come in to work on. Counseling provides a clearer understanding of oneself and there are many tools, such as energy work, guided imagery, hypnosis, EMDR, acupuncture, and chiropractic care, that can help your emotions and body to let go more deeply and fully. You may explore several different modalities as you move through your healing journey. It’s also beneficial to create a personal practice support your healing.

Living Well and Dying Well (with a Diagnosis...) BY

CLARE GOLDSBERRY

Health and wellness are relative. What is health? What is wellness? Can we be “well” while also having a physical illness or disability? There are few things more frightening that getting a diagnosis of ill health, and worse, one that includes a projection of a terminal illness. I will never forget the way I felt the day the gastroenterologist approached me with the news that the endoscopy he’d just performed on my significant other, Brent, was very likely esophageal cancer. I was so completely stunned I had no words. However, as I was to learn, Brent’s perspective on the diagnosis was entirely different. One of the big lessons I learned from Brent as I walked the journey of his cancer and death with him, was nonattachment to outcomes. He believed that life is what it is, and that wanting it to be otherwise is at best, an effort in futility. People who are diagnosed with terrible diseases often chase cures, spending precious time on the Internet tracking down doctors, hospitals, and alternative therapies in an attempt to change the outcome. Their total focus becomes their body. Brent did not choose that path. He believed in nonattachment to outcomes and did not want to spend the time he had left in this dimension trying to alter an outcome that he knew— his death would come sooner than he’d expected it—so he embraced his life as it was. He was not focused on his body or illness, and in fact rarely thought about it. Consequently he didn’t experience much pain except what would be normal after surgery.

He never allowed the fact that he had cancer to be at the forefront of his life. He went back to work after his surgery, met with clients and continued to be the same funny guy he’d always been. He bought a new Corvette because, as Brent put it, when one is a “short-timer” one must enjoy the finer things in life,” and we continued our activities with the Corvette club to which we belonged. He used to say, “I have cancer, the cancer doesn’t have me.” Health and wellness can be as much a state of mind as a condition of the physical body. Brent understood that he didn’t have to be perfectly healthy to feel “well” so having cancer was just a side-trip on the journey. It was Brent’s matter-of-fact attitude about his diagnosis that gave me the strength to walk this path with him. It also helped me understand what Buddhism teaches as having a “good death.” I also learned that crisis produces an opportunity to stretch oneself spiritually, to grow, to realize what is important in life and what is not. If we see all events as opportunities to grow—even the events we do not want—we begin to understand their meaning to us. At that point we can know what it is like to be well, even in the face of physical ailments and death. Many people blame God when something happens to them such as terminal illness, but Brent didn’t believe in “God” per se, yet he had a feeling of something universal that was guiding him and providing a peacefulness that he’d always experienced in his life. Death is something that we do alone. No one can die for us. We must experience

20 years experience

it for ourselves. But dying well is not a passive activity. Death is not something that happens to us; we can participate in the process once we know how to die. Sometimes the process can take days or weeks before the final breath is drawn, or death can come quickly with hardly a moment to think about it. Hence, we need to be prepared for our death. Cultures such as those in the Far East see death as a beautiful, experiential transition to the next realm, where one awaits one’s next birth into yet another life. The transition is eased through a series of rituals, including the reading of texts such as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, to help the soul leave peacefully and gently. It is said that people who fight death have a difficult time on the astral plane or the bardo state, a Tibetan Buddhists call it. In Buddhism there is a saying: “Death is certain, the time of our death is uncertain.” Being prepared for death is achieved by living a fearless life. Helping our loved ones have a good death is the best gift we can give them, allowing them to experience the release of their body quietly and peacefully. a CLARE GOLDSBERRY, This Phoenix-based author, is a lifelong spiritual seeker whose articles have on spirituality and religions have been published in a variety of publications. A practicing Buddhist, Clare Goldsberry wrote The Illusion of Life and Death: Mind, Consciousness, and Eternal Being after her partner Brent’s illness and death to help people understand what having a good death means: a death without fear of the unknown – to trust the path of passing – which makes living so much more enjoyable.

The Cannabis Nurse BY

N AT E C R O T T E A U , R N

Greetings! I’m Nate, your Cannabis Nurse and navigator into CBD. Have you ever had questions about the use of cannabis in your life but don’t know where to turn to gather your information? Good news, I am here to start the conversation while providing you quality information from a reliable source. I haven’t always been a Cannabis Nurse. I actually have a unique background that encompasses cannabis from different angles. As a teen, I experimented with cannabis in the form of marijuana. It was nothing more than an experimental phase in my life, which soon shifted towards a different direction. After high school, I obtained an Associate’s degree in Law Enforcement from the local community college in my town. While I was earning my degree, I began working as a Correctional Officer at the Minnesota Department of Corrections. From this angle I was able to learn the legal framework that encompasses the world of cannabis, as well as the ramifications of not adhering to the laws that surround it. Over time, I experienced burnout that many Correctional Officers do and sought out a new path. So, I enrolled back into college and obtained an Associate’s degree in Nursing. As a nurse, I specialized in the fields of oncology, palliative care, and hospice. The nurses on our floor worked with some of the sickest patients in the hospital, many who were at the end of their life. I would often have patients expand their care by adding in alternative options, like cannabis. Some of these patients had impressive symptom management. I credit them for opening my eyes to this wonderful herb. I knew I wanted to be more involved and immediately began taking courses to increase my education. The most comprehensive course was conducted by the American Cannabis Nursing Association (ACNA) and The Medical Cannabis Institute and really increased my level of knowledge in regards to cannabis as a beneficial tool for symptom management. The various cannabinoids in the cannabis plant each have their own benefit. The most commonly known and most commonly found cannabinoids are tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), which can be found in both marijuana and hemp. To better understand, a little education will be needed. Marijuana and hemp are both considered cannabis. There are

10

W I N T E R 2 0 2 2 • t he e dg e mag azine

many types of cannabis with varying properties. Marijuana has more psychoactive properties because it has increased levels of THC, a psychoactive cannabinoid, and usually has lower levels of CBD. When you ingest it, you feel the psychoactive properties. Hemp contains CBD and THC as well, but hemp is federally regulated to contain a THC level of 0.3% or less by dry weight and usually has increased levels of CBD, which is great for inflammation relief in the body. When you ingest hemp products, like CBD oil, you do not typically have an elevating psychoactive feeling because the THC exists in trace amounts. Both THC and CBD can be found in the resinous glands of the cannabis flower. Marijuana is not legal in every state and neither is the CBD found within. However, CBD derived from hemp is federally legal and legal in all states. In an attempt to be more involved in the industry, I co-created and co-own a hemp CBD Farm and Retail store called Holistic Wellness Services. Our small family business grows our own hemp, extracts the cannabinoids, and creates full-spectrum CBD products in the form of CBD tincture oil, salves for pain and healing, lip balms, and much more. I spend my days educating customers about cannabis and I hope I just did the same for you. a

Solar Attunement brings flowing cosmic light into your body /

by BILL TORVUND

1) In a comfortable position suitable for meditation, visualize a brilliant solar orb about twelve inches above your head. 2) Now, you have activated the solar orb 12 inches above your head, Bring the image of the solar orb from above your head into your frontal body. Inhale as long as you can while you bring the golden solar light into all seven chakras simultaneously. Breathe in as deeply as you can and feel the golden light and warmth of the Sun within all of your chakras. 3) At the very top of your inhale, hold your breath as long as you can, so that you can also feel the resonance, the vibration, of the Sun with its golden light expanding as deeply and powerfully as possible into your entire body. 4) When you can no longer comfortably retain your breath, then exhale as slowly as possible and recite the mantra OM, focusing the mantra OM into all seven chakras. 5) At the bottom of the exhaled breath, hold your breathing cycle again as long as you possibly can so that you can again feel the vibration of the solar golden light and the sound of the mantra OM in your entire body. 6) Now, again focus the orb of solar light at the top of your head and visualize this bright golden orb about twelve inches above the head flowing down into the top of your head. 7) Now, on the inhaled breath, bring the golden orb of light downwards, descending from the top of the head into the forehead, the throat, the heart, the solar plexus, the navel and the sacrum in order to bring the solar light and radiance into each of the chakral centers progressively. 8) As the solar orb of light descends downwards, try to inhale as slowly as possible so that the movement of the golden orb of light is also slow enough so that you can feel the heat and the brilliance of the golden light as much as possible. 9) Now, hold your breath again to feel the resonance/vibration of the light in each chakra. When you exhale, again recite the mantra OM into all seven chakras. Then suspend your breath again to feel the resonance of the sound of the mantra OM in all of your chakral centers. 10) Now, allow the meditation to return to silence, and remain in silence, that is remain in Presence, as long as possible.

Connecting with Your Spirit Guides BY

G R A H M W I B S TA D

What is a spirit guide? Our spirit guides are simply souls like you and I that are not incarnated right now, that choose to help us while we are here on earth. From our perspective in the physical, we can only see what is right in front of us. We have a limited ability to see into the future and to predict the consequences of our actions. Spirit Guides have a different and higher perspective. As they reside in the astral realm, they can see the potential outcomes of our actions before we make them. Spirit guides are loving; they want us to succeed, and they have our best interest at heart. If you are getting information that is hateful, or harmful, rest assured it is not your guide. What are the benefits of connecting with our spirit guides? There are big benefits to connecting with our spirit guides. They offer their companionship—which helps us feel safe. They can help us make decisions—especially big ones—so we feel confident in the actions and choices we are making. Most importantly, they can help us realize that we are not alone and that we have a team that is always rooting for us, cheering for us, and guiding us. Our guides can be that light in the dark showing the way forward. How do you connect with your spirit guides? When starting out I recommend taking some time to quiet down and relax your mind and body before trying to connect. As you communicate more often, it will be easier to make the connection and with less preparation. Now I will walk you through a process on how to connect with one of your spirit guides. First sit somewhere quiet. Take a few deep breaths. Take some time to feel into your body, dropping out of the mind. How does your body feel? Now take a few moments to scan around your body. How does the space around your body feel? When you are ready, ask one of your spirit guides to step forward physically around you. Take your time as you sense where your guide is. Notice how the space around you feels different now that your guide is there. Next, what does their presence feel like? Find out what other information you can sense about them. Are they short or tall? Male or female? What is their skin color? What kind of clothing are they wearing? When you feel ready, ask your guide for a message. When you are asking for a message from your guide stay focused on where you feel them around you, that is your focal point as you receive their message. As you are focused on them, what thoughts do you hear from your guide? What feelings do you feel from your guide? What images do you see from your guide? If the message does not seem clear, ask your guide to elaborate. You can dialogue back and forth with your guides as you would with another person. When you are finished, thank your guide for their help. If at first, you struggle with doubt and are not sure if you are doing this right. That is ok. Like any other skill, practice is needed to improve and to feel confident. With practice you can get better at communicating and navigating the nuances of what is and isn’t your guide. We all have room to grow, and bit by bit I am improving and so can you. The big takeaway I want to leave you with is that you—yes you—can connect with your spirit guides. It is possible and you already have the ability right now. a

HOW DO YOU COMMUNICATE

with Spirit? by Holly Busse

H

an interview with internationally known intuitive, psychic, healer and teacher Kimberly Meredith

ow do you communicate with Spirit? How do you know when something “bigger” is speaking to you? Do your hands get hot, your ears start to ring, or maybe you see colors in the form of rainbows? For Kimberly Meredith, her eyes blink. Blinking eyes have been her connection to Spirit since she was a baby. As with many people who are intuitive, especially as children, Kimberly’s gifts were not in her mother’s wheelhouse. After bringing up the word “reincarnation” in school, at the tender age of seven, Kimberly was slapped by her mother and told to stop. Stop blinking. And so she did. “I really just wanted to make my mom happy.” The journey begins. In 2013, Kimberly had a near-death experience. She left her body, but when she came back into her body, with a lot of pain and suffering, she realized she was blinking again. The gift she abandoned as a little girl was back. She was once again connecting to Spirit and experienced a miracle in which she was completely healed by the Holy Spirit. Now not only are the higher frequencies where she does her work, but it’s also where she lives. “When you hear about Einstein and Edgar Cayce and all of these phenomena and spiritual speakers and intuitives, they all work within dimensional frequencies and the paranormal.” So how do you get there, to the higher dimensions? Can we jump from the third to the fifth? As Kimberly explains,

W I N T E R 2 0 2 2 • t he e dg e mag azine

“You’re not really jumping, you are understanding and that we are moving in and out of dimensions all the time and we don’t even realize it. It’s important to take responsibility for your own actions and the frequencies of what you want to live in. When you are living in fear and suffering, hostility and guilt, it separates you from other dimensional frequencies that you can go into. The third dimension right now is pretty ugly and dense and very fear-driven. Could it truly be that all we need is love?

“I know, it feel like it’s a Beatles thing, but all we need is love and to get into the fifth dimension is love.” Kimberly’s blinking, codes, and many other gifts are fascinating. This many blinks means yes, this means no, this means cancer, this means tumor, and catching a tumor in it's


Watch Kimberly discuss how her near death experiences unlocked her natural abilities, channeling the Holy Spirit, and what is the fifth dimension. SCAN ME

early stages can save a life. The fact that she’s never taken a class or been taught by anyone to do what she does is amazing. She truly has a gift and is generous in her offerings of how we can all live in the higher dimensions and not just on a spiritual level, but also physically. Sometimes when we are working on our spirituality, we forget that we actually have a body, a body that needs some attention and can also help get us to those higher dimensions.

C

oncerned about environmental pollutions, Kimberly recalls her grandmother cooking homemade meals and getting bottles of milk and water delivered to the house in glass bottles. But, soon the food industry was introducing processed TV dinners, fake puddings, jello, and red dyes. Water started being sold in plastic bottles. Getting back to making homemade foods, eating a sweet potato instead of a protein bar, could do us all some good. If you ever have a session with Kimberly, be prepared to answer a few questions about the foods you eat and the water you drink. Yes, it does matter. And be honest, remember, she is intuitive.

“My guides are so nosy and when I scan a body I’m like a private investigator going through every little thing in their body.”

Kimberly believes we can get there, as a society, to the fifth dimension and higher. It’s up to each of us to take responsibility to do what we can and come from that place of love, for ourselves and others. But we don’t have to do it without a bit of help, maybe even a bit of a blueprint. In her book Awakening to the Fifth Dimension, Kimberly spends the last half of her book giving prayers, affirmations, exercises, meditations, and a wealth of information that will lift your body’s vibrations. Kimberly wants people to feel they can have their miracle and believes we are here to experience miracles. As she so beautifully states, “All we need is love and to get into the fifth dimension is love. That’s how we can heal ourselves – by being in love.” Exclusive offer for The Edge community: Visit the Events page on Kimberly’s site thehealingtrilogy.com and enter promo code MMMGIFT to join and participate in a Mother Mary Matrix group meditation for free!

2022

Healing Our Differences BY

W E S H A M I LT O N , M A S T E R N U M E R O L O G I S T

In 2017 the wisdom of Numerology alerted us that it is time for all of us to embrace our innate skills of being more of a humanitarian global culture. The vibrational energy of our current 2000 millennium is prompting us to come together as cocreators of our future. The 2 vibrational energy inspires us to think and act as a “we” culture. I believe for this to happen we need to take advantage this year’s “we” energy and use all these 2 vibrational energies that 2022 has to offer. I believe for us to accomplish this; we must heal our differences! In 2017 our planet entered a 9-year global century vibrational energy cycle. Global energy cycles take 9 years to complete. This year 2022 is the 6th year of our current 9-year century cycle that we started in 2017. What this year’s 6-vibrational energy cycle means is for all of us to come together, open our hearts, forgive our past concerns, and create new ways to agree to disagree. Then we can build bridges to heal our future.

How could healing our differences happen for you? In your career: Perhaps you have a dream or a strong desire for you to find ways to be of service doing something that fuels your passion. Action: Go to corepassion.com and take the Core Passion Assessment. Next use my whatsmydestiny.com app to explore your personal timelines to make your plans of what to do and when to take action. In your relationships: Perhaps you would like to reconnect with several people who did not share your same values and beliefs while going through the last 2 years of changes. Action: Time to open your heart and let go of your differences and your judgements. Next use my relationship report in numerology to explore your gifts and challenges in the relationship and the karmic influences that happen when you come together.

Last year 2021 was vibrating to the 5-energy. By now you know the vibrational energy of 5 was about chaos and changes happening. Some changes were good; however, many were very challenging. Many found themselves stuck in the weeds of confusion and overwhelm. Last year, many people realized that they needed to pivot their destiny so that they could move forward again.

In your health: Perhaps you have forgotten

The vibrational energy of 6 also has its gifts and its challenges just like all the numbers do. The gift of the 6 vibrational energy is that it is heart driven. The energy of the heart is all about love, family, friends, and community. This is the energy you will be using to heal your differences. The challenges of the 6- vibrational energy are that it can become justified, judgmental, and argumentative. This challenge of this energy is what you want to avoid.

again. Take time to journal for ways you can

So how do we go about healing our differences? I like to begin by looking for and focusing on the good that is happening. The golden rule says, “whatever you focus on you get more of it.” Remember the 6 energy has a strong sense of justice. It’s important to stay away from making a strong judgement about someone or something as being good, bad, right, or wrong. Also, this year will be a good time for you to replace many outdated old beliefs and values you have been living by.

be together. Spend more time meditating

2022 will inspire you to become aware you are on a journey of discovering your passion and purpose. You are learning who you are being and what you need to be doing to become all you can be in this lifetime. Aligning with your heart centered 6-energy will bring you into alignment to heal your differences. a

Pleiadian Message C H A N N E L E D BY

Christine Day

Beloved ones we greet you, The winds of change have anchored a new energetic arena on your earth plane, a higher dimensional playing field has been made manifest. This happening has created an expanded landscape of opportunity for each one of you to evolve at a faster rate into your enlightenment process. Destiny was set in motion as you moved into the next timeframe of 2022. This is your moment to make a series of conscious choices on your behalf, designed to propel you back to your original nature and allow your sacredness to be in the conscious forefront of your life. At the time of New Year, the entire energetic dynamic on Earth shifted as there was a reopening and anchoring of many higher consciousness reality spaces on the planet. An expansive network of consciousness light inhabits the earth plane. Simultaneously you went through a metamorphic shift as a pure form of this communion light from these reality spaces interacted through your brain synapses, brain cells, Pineal and forged through your Heart cells. You in reality are a natural extension of this profoundly expansive communion network that now exists on Earth, your unique divine light is an essential component of this communion network. These higher reality spaces have always existed on Earth and for the first time they are fully accessible to you. These sacred frequencies are actively interacting, engaging through you. These reality spaces are from the 5th dimensional expression of unconditional love, and they make up a part of the new frequency of Earth. These multidimensional spaces automatically have begun to realign you to your Heart’s sacred consciousness, this is an expansive consciousness state, which is an aspect of your Higher Self. You can align to this consciousness network through your Heart and begin to actively return to your place in these higher alternate reality spaces. You have always existed there. You can begin to actively choose to initiate yourself back into your unique place and set in motion a process of self-realization of your Higher Self. You have entered a totally different time frame on Earth where the energetics are based more on Truth reality than illusion. Your Heart is to play an altered role in your life as it automatically realigned to this expansive environment at the time of the turning of 2022. Now you need to choose to align consciously within your Heart to open into the essence of the expansion within you. The energy of the light will enable you have a reunion experience deeper than ever before. There will be a returning to a more complete aspect of relationship through the communion within your Heart than previously experienced. The higher frequency arena on Earth has created a more fluid state of being within you. This fluidity will allow you to interact with a new flow in your life, supporting you to navigate your way in your day-to-day effortlessly and from a very diverse standpoint. Engaging your Heart will open new doorways of opportunity in your life. Your expansive fluidity naturally aligns you into the current of this higher

consciousness network that has anchored on Earth. Your physical and energetic systems are operating with this fluid light, which is electrical in nature. This fluid light enables you to engage more completely within the multidimensional makeup of your Heart. Allowing you to shift your perceptions past the illusion and begin to engage within a higher cycle of your consciousness. This shifting of your perceptions is a natural happening, an evolution made manifest within you through this new energetic arena of Earth. Over the coming months you can begin to revolutionize your life through the natural building of an alliance within your expansive Heart. You get to choose what experiences you want in your life, through a deepening understanding given to you through the interaction of your Heart. The pathway is wide open and will remain so. Your Heart is the doorway to your creation energy, to knowing and knowledge. Through this changing energetic arena on Earth your conscious choice actions of reconnecting through your Heart will be made manifest, you being moved into a direct experience of change in your day to day life. Your multidimensional blessings are waiting to be returned to you through your conscious choice actions of opening up through your Heart to receivership. This is simply a destiny time for transmutation and transformational understanding of Truth to be revealed to you. This is a returning, nothing new, simply realignment, reconnection, reunion with the aspects of your sacred nature, your Higher Self. Remember the words we have spoken previously, “you are who you have been waiting for.” You are the Master of your experiences. You are the only one who can create change, you are responsible for your own creation. Look around you, take in your life as it is now, and know that this current experience has been a perfect learning process for you. Now is the time for change through first claiming the creation of your life, honoring this creation of your life! Take full responsibility for what you have created and know that you can change this creation when you are ready at any moment. How much are you willing to receive for yourself? Within the doorway to your Heart is your creation element and you can choose to open to receive your Heart’s desire! Through the Network consciousness that is now active on your earth plane your ability to align and operate within your multidimensional Heart’s potential can be fully self-realized. We, the Pleiadians, are working alongside the Spiritual realms and are part of a Universal team to support mankind during this transitional shift of consciousness on planet Earth. We are holding the energetics throughout your planet, and we are supporting individuals as you move through your transitions. However, you and only those of you in physical bodies can actually make the shifts required for your planet to move into a full transition of consciousness.

Christine Day cont. ) Each one of you hold the power to create the shifts necessary to maintain the balance of light for the planet and to forge the path for the consciousness of humanity to change. Through your conscious action of coming Home through your Heart you realign to the essence of your power. Collectively you can create the changes for the veils to ultimately lift on the planet. Through a communion of your Heart’s power you shift the balance of light and the veils lift. This is what you pre agreed to achieve together, this is part of your collective mission! What is essential is that you do not focus on the illusion and drama on your planet. This is just a playout of the old separation which ultimately cannot interfere with the destiny of Earth. You will be successful in achieving your mission of the consciousness changes on Earth. Let go and celebrate the amazing pure light of the Network, which is a flowing, pulsing life force consciousness. Don’t focus on the drama, rather connect in moments to your Heart and allow alignment within the

sacred Network of Truth. This process of your unfolding is a step by step, moment by moment connection to your Heart. The process of change is not about you trying to achieve perfection, rather to create a series of accumulative moments chosen by you, of alignment to your Heart. This is the action of ‘you re-birthing you’. We continue to hold a mirrored platform of love and truth alongside the rest of the Universe. You can align to this platform through your Heart. The words, ‘I AM’ anchor the truth of your multidimensional being, you are an aspect of the sacred Oneness. Feel, see, or sense the frequency that opens when you utilize these words and anchor them into your Heart. Continue to let go and choose to align to yourself within your Heart. You are your Heart. Beloveds come home to yourself through your Heart.

We hold you in the stillness, within the light. Blessings, The Pleiadians

A Remarkable Seance BY

T. S T O K E S , H O L I S T I C PA L M I S T

I have wanted to write this for 20 years.

Seafaring folk are very superstitious, they believe some vessels are jinxed. Look at the numerology involved:

It began when i was invited to a seance back in the year 2000 The participants were not particularly skilled in these matters but curious and good people. The evening went smoothly and nothing whatever Kursk=8 occurred until the last few minutes. Navy=8 I was absolutely shocked as a man’s spirit walked into At sea=8 Capt.

I looked Roslyako Base = 8 round noticing no one else could see him. I remembered Torpedo Tubes= 8 they were new spiritual seekers who had not yet develDrownings=8 oped spirit sight. The dead sailor, a young man I would The Nuclear accident=8 say in his mid 20s, noticed me staring at him and said Putin=8 telepathically, “please get word to my sister i am now ok”. I British help=8 thought this man had obviously drowned, but his only Rescue=8 thought was for his sister. I nodded and he just faded 116 sailors minus captain away. No one else had seen this man, but I picked up all and sub captain = 8 his thoughts and final emotions. When I got home I put on the news I saw the Russian All the major numbers are 8.

It was an hour after I got home called upon to face the greatest the telephone rang, and the other sitters had noticed sorrows, loses and humiliations. when I left I was pale and obviously distressed.

Awakening in Nature to Our Interconnectedness Excer pt from The Necktie and the Jaguar: A memoir to help you change your stor y and find fulfillment

BY

C A R L G R E E R , P H D, P S YD

When I was not yet old enough for kindergarten, I would often leave behind my baby brother, who was still in cloth diapers and in need of my mother’s watchful eye, and wander off by myself to explore the town and countryside near my home in Mt. Lebanon, Pennsylvania. Neither of my parents realized that my sense of adventure bordered on the foolhardy. Oblivious to the possibility of being hit by a speeding streetcar or falling onto the road below, I played on a dangerous trestle that spanned a nearby road. Confident I could navigate using only my homing sense, I didn’t announce when I was going out for a walk that might take me far from our house. Since I always showed up in time for lunch or supper, my distracted mother apparently didn’t worry about whether I was somewhere in the woods or upstairs in my room. Among my discoveries was a stream that ran through a valley about a mile away. Thickets lined its banks, and I picked my way through them to stand and watch the water leaping and lifting over stones in its path. The trunks of the trees were covered in lichen that to my eyes seemed like maps from an ancient world. The buckeyes yielded a prized harvest of nuts that I would collect and carry home. I also felt the urge to investigate the small farm that bordered the hillside at the end of our street. One day when I was five, I stepped onto the property and suddenly, a glowing, ethereal light appeared to encircle the apple tree in front of me. Time seemed to be suspended as my mind struggled to grasp what was happening. The tree, the sky, the land, and I were one, connected by the light. Was I alive? In a world of dreams? The light seemed to weave together everything in the field, including me, unifying all that existed. There was no separation, no aloneness. All were intermingled in a field of energy, every tree aware of its every leaf and every leaf aware of every insect, bird, and ray of sunlight. I had never felt anything like this before. Then, just as abruptly, the light around the tree faded, and I was back in the ordinary world. Before me was just a tree like any other. The magic and sense of safety, comfort, and love had completely evaporated. Where had

Where can one find opportunities to learn more about the mystical? It’s difficult, but not impossible, to have what you need show up for you—as my story shows.

BOOKS WE’RE READING I Think I Like You Better Dead “Keep me real. Sometimes, I am standing right beside you. I haven’t gone anywhere. Just keep me real.” This message was clearly relayed to the author in a session with a medium shortly after her brother’s death. Over the next two years, Cathryn Taylor navigated through her grief, doubt, and fear to do just that. The result is this spiritual memoir I Think I Like You Better Dead. Is it real... or imagined?

Getting Off the Radiator As a young girl, Dorothy Preston grew up in a 28 room mansion. Everything was great until one day, her father lost his job, and not long after that, left the family. Her mother, thinking he would someday return, kept the mansion. In the memoir Getting Off the Radiator the author does an amazing job of making the reader feel like they are right there, in the mansion, in all of the dysfunction and craziness involved in trying to pay the bills, run the house and take care of all the kids. This is a great lazy day, curl up with a blanket and hot cup of tea book. But, don’t get too cozy. Preston brings much wisdom and insight to the family bonds that could never be broken. Forgiveness and peace.

Sacred Medicine In Sacred Medicine, Jen Piceno brings twenty-five medicine people together share their stories, their wisdom, their healing medicine with the reader in a personal and loving way. If you are on a journey to self discovery, self healing, these pages are filled with the “medicine” that may resonate with you. As the author writes in a special note to the reader, “Trust the process; you’re being led exactly where you need to go. Let the journey begin.”

The Ancestors Within (Volumes 1 & 2) Have you ever been interested in something, only later to find out that your great great grandmother was also interested in that very thing? These fascinating The Ancestors Within books dive into how our ancient origins still affect us in this lifetime and the healing that can take place in getting to know and understand our ancestors. Not only does Amy Gillespie Dougherty share her story and knowledge, but she brings on board an amazing team that also shares their stories, insights and gifts with the readers. Great read if you are looking to go into the “whys” of your life and connect with your ancestors.

This book will make you laugh, pause, ponder and have a few “ah ha” moments. You will find yourself smiling and thinking, “why didn’t I think of that?” We make life so much harder than it needs to be at times. Ease up. Let It Be Easy!

An empowering book on how to take your life and wellbeing back through the healing of plant medicine.

ANGEL QUEST These cards feel good and are delightful to play with. Psychic medium and author Karen Noé and portrait and fine artist Marie Antoinette Kelley have joined together to create Angel Quest Oracle, a heavenly divination card deck and guidebook. This visually pleasing deck was created to enhance direct communication between you and your angels. As you invoke those in the heavenly realm, you’ll receive accurate, uplifting messages to help you better understand the steps you need to take to move forward in life.

NAUGHTY SPIRIT These cards have been fun to play with over the last couple of months. The Naughty Spirit Oracle Deck by Jodie Harvala is the perfect deck for you. Especially if you love the rainbows and unicorns of the Spirit world but also appreciate it's blunt side. Sometimes we all need a direct push from Spirit, with some swear words thrown in, to get that very important message across. A great deck to have to “shift your energy” during a stressful day – simply draw a card, giggle and smile.
