back in the game

Today is the second Monday of the last month of the year, just a couple of hours before another day unfolds, hehe. Hello again, everyone.

I have been gone for so long. Didn't realize 2013 would be this insanely busy. But this has been a most healing year for me, & believe me, I've tried to rush through it, but I've learned it's better to pace myself; to allow my body, mind, heart, & soul to recover.

I've met a lot of delightful new clients this year, for starters. I play favorites, even if that doesn't sound so savory, depending on their willingness to cooperate, their eagerness to learn, their generosity, their intelligence, even. Especially intelligence. I've always worked with strong personalities. I love it when they're most wonderful company. They inspire me to strive better, to aim for accuracy in my readings & healing sessions everytime, to become larger than life (not physique-wise, please, of course, haha). If they keep coming back (though again, I do NOT encourage codependency), I look for ways to reward them. & I'm glad to re-announce my humble specials for my regulars.

For every 3 paying referrals within the year, I will give a complimentary 30-minute reading online, either on a birthday or a special holiday (working days such as Valentine's, included). So, yes, the more referrals, the more consultations you get. You get a ThetaHealing® session, too, depending on your needs & preference. Especially when your birthday falls on an actual holiday. 

You also get to have the chance to be my esteemed Client of The Year, where you'll get humble little goodies such as wellness products I personally love (I gave facial GCs, lip balm, body butter, & sanitizers the last time), an astrology book (or two), & yes, complimentary services. Plus you get to be my priority in messaging or calling. I'll definitely throw in more surprises soon. My Client of The Year tradition started 3 years ago. The first ever was the Client of The Year for 2 years running. I still love her to bits. Capricorn Sun, Leo Moon, Libra Rising. 

The second one, from last year, was a young Aquarian, with also a Leo Moon, Sagittarius Rising. She also tried ThetaHealing®for herself, & swears by it, even if she, too, has a long way to go, like I do. She was always thoughtful. I will never forget her because she'd give me super-cool gifts (Kimmidoll keychains, jasmine massage oil, something my favorite bubble bath bar line, remembrances from her Vietnam trip, other accessories) & recommendations. 

Now the bet for this year is a lovely Taurus girl who just survived her first Saturn return. Gemini Moon, Libra Rising. My new meditation series is partly inspired by her. Let's see what happens. 

I also have a young Sagittarian male client whom I always reward after our 6-month-long progress. I already gave him a tiger's eye bracelet (very relevant for his journey), a few free readings with various decks, & extended time. 

& for everyone else who've made referrals to me out of sheer thoughtfulness but haven't made the mark yet for this year's offering from me, will also be remembered. Because I love you guys. Thank you for your trust! There's always my Facebook Page for quick one-card readings that you guys can indulge in, depending on the mechanics du jour, that have churned out pretty accurate readings by themselves, & yes, little random tokens that I hand out whenever least expected. ;)

I do my best to give back, even if sometimes I find myself depleted of anything to give, & I know that I've been always super-generous in every session I have, anyway. As much as possible, I don't withhold answers; I explain things very patiently, ad nauseam; I don't really bill down to the last minute. Though, please understand if I have to charge my rate by the hour, especially when there are people waiting for their turn. 

But seriously, I can't believe how much progress I've made at this point in time, until I meet clients again whom I haven't heard from in a year or so. It makes me think how painstaking my ThetaHealing® classes were. They're just as surprised as I am with how "far" I've gone in this journey. So far I've received certification for Game of Life (pretty much life-coaching, for spiritual people such as myself to become more grounded & succeed in temporal life like everyone else can & does), & RHYTHM (weight management, even if I haven't really bust a move on my body yet, hehe). I also took up basic past-life regression via a crystal layout, & I can't wait for the advanced class in 2 weeks. I know people keep asking me about that before, to which I replied, I wouldn't be able to do that just yet, until I'm really sure I can handle it. But tapping into past lives is so much easier now, especially with ThetaHealing®. Jeezus, so trippy. & I have people confirming them past lives I've seen, to boot! 

My life has changed so much because after all my attempts to keep my Tarot practice grounded, to the point of more as an intellectual pursuit, instead of bordering on hoodoo/woo-woo/juju, I've ended up embracing that side of it, even excelling at working with it, even! HAHA. What. But like I always say, only when it is meant to be worked on can I go ahead with it, to paraphrase Paulo Coelho in The Alchemist. & even before I got comfortable with the idea of me being a "healer," some of my clients already declare me being a healer, especially with how I can zoom in on their health via readings with much precision. & how I've been struggling to figure out to heal myself through alternative means. Instead of me being alarmed with all this further, I've decided to explore it, & yay, I'm actually a full-fledged conduit now. I'm just the facilitator, though. Just tapping into the Source of All That Is to allow it to heal others. Just witnessing how it's all happening. Just guiding everyone through the process. & the rest is up to them, whether they wish to really embrace recovery or not.

Just exactly what I do with my Tarot readings. I just witness things unfold. I just facilitate the actual reading, upon the request of the seeker/questioner/querent/client. I just guide them with the best to my knowledge, or with whatever else divinely inspired comes up, how to go through with things in their life at the time of reading. I cannot really impose myself on them. I don't want to, either. ThetaHealing® is helping me to become a better reader, & I'm doing my best to incorporate that modality into my readings, & vice versa. I am thankful for my one-stop-shop wellness center for introducing ThetaHealing® & making all this possible. Yay. I missed out on at least a couple of very important courses, though, like Diseases & Disorders as well as DNA3 this year, but there's always next year. & I'm praying I'd get to teach this as well soon. I am expecting that by the end of 2013 I'm more at peace, more energized, more determined, & more abundant with blessings. I'm still really managing how to become so. The process of changing, in line with Pluto in Capricorn & Uranus in Aries (squaring off, even, ugh), is painful but definitely worth it. I can't wait to manifest so much more wonderful experiences, trips, & things, not just Tarot decks. Got a couple of new finds, like the Feng Shui deck by the Connolly duo, & the Celestial deck, which was so much prettier than expected! 

Speaking of one of my clients calling me a healer long before I've realized I could actually be one, her delightful Pisces self (Virgo Rising) has invited me to conduct workshops & sessions in her spa somewhere up North. I will be checking it out tomorrow, & trying out some of her services there, since I'm a spa junkie, anyway, even if I don't look it, hehe. I am happy that this is the case, & I am hoping for other invites. I'll be accommodating, as much as my schedule permits. Right now I'm really swamped with Pluto (& Venus! UGH) issues, transiting my solar 4th House. Home repairs are a doozy & I'm itching to have everything revamped before the holidays, when the next Venus retrograde rolls in. But of course I have to pace myself. Everything's just a bit cumbersome now, as we speak, but my brother, housekeeper, my dog, & I are coping. 

Looks like this post has successfully answered all these questions I found at the last minute somewhere online to help me re-evaluate my 2013:

• How has your life improved in the last twelve months?
• What do you do easily now that you once thought was impossible?
• What have you accomplished this year that you couldn't have accomplished three years ago?
• What is one outcome you experienced this year that would have been inconceivable before?
• What are your results this year, compared to your results last year at this time?

So what about you? Do you want help in keeping tabs with your progress? Do you want more progress in life, too? What are your thoughts? If you want help, that's what I'm here for! There are many other avenues of help, though. I will be more than happy to make my own referrals here! & I'm still very grateful to everyone who has helped me along the way, especially this year. I've lost so much & gained so much at the same time. Share away at the tiny comments section, & you might just get a free quick one-card reading from me here! 

Please also stay tuned for my big blog revamp. Can't wait! 

because something good indeed can work this season

November has been very intense for me, so far. It started out fine with my new as well as returning clients. (Thanks, folks.) I also was able to spend more time with my brother again as we both prepared for All Saints' Day, & we got to visit my father & sister's grave after a long while. I was also able to join new friends (younger, kickass, creative girls) go boxing at least every week. I felt intense pain after 3 long days, though, during my first try before the Full Moon. I had to reschedule most my appointments as a result. I'm expecting to at least have a couple push through again this Tuesday, then I'll be taking some more time off just before the next New Moon in Sagittarius. Funny enough, New Moons are supposedly lazy days, but with the next one in rambunctious Sagittarius, if you feel antsy, anyway, go right ahead. I can totally feel the Sagittarian energy now, while Venus is in it, so I'm totally wearing a lot more solar colors (red, orange, pink) for more energy, talking to more new people (like a whole bunch of foreigners, who are more often than not surprisingly fellow Librans!), planning my next faraway getaways, & getting more in touch with spirituality while trying to incorporate more of it in my day-to-day temporal drudgery.

Like I'm really switching back to healthier habits. That deserves a separate entry completely, but I might as well post it here. We got a new blender so it'll be easier to force-feed me fruit, as I can't eat the damned stuff fresh everytime (unless we're talking about mangoes, avocado, melons, & pineapple). I'll be cutting back on fancy alcohol, too, even if I can't resist this lineup. Everything I've dutifully sworn off in 2006 long before this blog was first operational via WordPress (sodas, fraps, excess carbs lacking protein) will be painfully set aside, too. Not to mention everything I've fallen in love with in 2006 before my grueling old day job sucked the life out of me (yoga, tai chi, Pilates, guided meditation) will be pursued again, along with my childhood favorites (biking, iceskating, long introspective walking). Looks like I'll be so on-the-go more often, & remind me to stock up on Advil until the holidays are over & done with. I really need to get my strength back. Psychic work is draining (especially lately, when things get eerily accurate on the spot even sans my Tarot cards, yikes) & now that Neptune has gone direct, I've just realized how disconnected I really am now to my physical body. & that has got to change by next year, especially now that I'm thinking of adding Muay Thai, surfing, & wakeboarding to my weekly routine. Don't ask.

Basta, what's important is that I get back on track with what I've started in 2006. Speaking of which, I was reminded of my 5-year-long reading for myself from that year using my Samurai Tarot deck. Now to be both feminine & badass at the same time.

This song isn't so badass as I intend to be again from now on, but it's light & fun & it's good for affirmations. I'm definitely getting things started. How about you?



I'm still very swamped with e-mail & texts so please bear with me. Just making this update is draining, but I'm so glad I'm back online here. Now if you want to schedule a reading (most likely in person) starting next week, my only available times would be early Tuesday (2pm-6pm) & Wednesday (5pm-7pm). If I don't get to sign up people by Monday, that's it, the next round's on the week after, same timeslots.

For people interested in remote readings with me, here's a tip I'd like to share & quote before we proceed:

"There are many people who think that the psychic will know about their problems in just a couple of minutes. In an online psychic reading, it is not at all practical to expect this. To get the best help in the least possible time, it is very important to prepare the questions well in advance. The caller needs to first decide on the problems that he would like the psychic to solve. This would greatly help the psychic in giving the best solution."

& I totally abhor people who don't respond politely while inquiring about my services, especially while I'm asking them their names. PLEASE. I'm a very exhausted person & it takes a while before I can pick up on anyone's energy via text or phone or email, especially when I've got my hands full or my mind's processing 5 other pressing things. So onegaishimasu, it's best when you introduce yourselves properly, before or after taking time to read my FAQs, & I'll be more than happy to accommodate you.

& to end this post on a rather nice note, the first 3 people who comment & share their thoughts here will get a quick online reading from me. Make sure you have working links or valid contact information. I appreciate all my blog readers & patrons, but I think it's time for you sweeties to be heard. Have a happy weekend! ♥
