Mise en Place: the True Secret to the Law of Attraction
Need a card today? Lately I’ve been using an old Angel oracle deck that I love. This card I love in particular because a) the message is outstanding, reminding us to put positive energy into our lives and see it returned, and b) because of the beautiful little animals all over it. When it comes to the Law of Attraction, I always like to tell my more skeptical clients “throw a rock, you hear a splash.”
The Law of Attraction is really about setting the stage in your life for the good things to happen, making a plan, putting your energy toward your goals as much as possible, and the universe standing in your corner, ready to assist.
The French have a phrase for having all of your ingredients ready when you’re cooking: mise en place, which essentially means you have everything organized before you start cooking: it’s prep!
For me, this is how the Law of Attraction works. You prep your body and your soul and let the Universe work its magic from there. #miseenplace #lawofattraction #angeloraclecards #psychicmedium #dailytarot

Setting Boundaries as an Empath
This one is simple. When you begin to feel strong empathy for someone and feel their energies seeping over into yours (feeling their pain, “knowing” what they’re going through at a spiritual level), say “This is not mine. Namaste.” This means “the light within me sees the light within you, but your energy is your energy and mine is mine.” If you prefer, this can be your chant, whichever one works for you. This is a good practice for maintaining good energy hygiene and keeping others from sapping your energetic strength. #freemeditation #mindfulnessmeditation

New Meditation Series
For those of you who aren’t familiar with my work, I’m developing a series of meditations that come to me while I’m performing Reiki. Some of you have experienced my Willow and Secret Garden meditations, both of which I’ll also be selling instructional videos of soon.
Today while working on a client i began to develop the Lotus meditation. While Secret Garden leads you to meet your spirit guide, and Willow helps you ground your energy and feed your spirit, Lotus takes it a step further and summons that most elusive of virtues:
Patience:
Lotus is a tool that helps you find compassion and love for yourself and others, delivering healing forgiveness and release from past bonds. Patience comes in the form of empathy as you discover compassion in your heart for even the most difficult characters, and you realize everyone walks with a different pebble in their shoe, but pebbles we all walk on just the same.
Archangel Haniel helps me with the Lotus meditation and brings her special kind touch to it. By the end, you’ll find a peace with your past self that you didn’t know you needed. Stay tuned for videos of this series, or if you’re near my town…come on out to my new Meditation classes beginning January 2020, where we will go into full length versions of my custom meditations, then discuss afterward our experiences while under the influence of pure peace.
Until next time, my friends, love and light:
Erica

Habits = Happiness: An investigation into confidence and manageable life change
I’m the first person to be annoyed when someone chastises me about better habits, negative thinking, etc…my inner b#%ch usually screams something about walking a mile in my shoes/does this person want a foot in their a$$/not all of us were born lucky, while I nod and smile politely.
However…there is something to be said for honest effort. There are a few things I need to change in my life:
1. My weight and general wellness
2. I need to organize my closets and cupboards/make my living space more efficient
3. I need to make more $$/have a healthier financial standing
4. I need to cook more and generally relax and stop holding my breath. I need to find time to just enjoy my life, which I’m not doing much of lately. I steal minutes from myself here and there while I mostly work myself to death.
5. I need to keep working to trust my gifts (I have had great success in this in the last year or so) and continue to just “see what I say” to build my clairvoyance and mediumship.
Building the habit of happiness will help me stay on track with shoring up the habits that will help me reach these goals. One of my main obstacles to success is what my mom used to diagnose as “lack of patience”–but as an adult, I see what she meant, and I see exactly what it is.
Sometimes I don’t believe in my power to make good things happen. I don’t believe in my own ability to change. This involuntary fear is depressing, and soul sucking, and it makes it hard for me to get up in the morning.
I have helped scores of people change their lives at this point through spiritual work, but I don’t believe in my own ability to change for the better. I don’t believe in my ability to do just about anything right, some days.
How screwed up is that? I have a whole book on deck about it. One time I was struggling to open this incredibly complex umbrella I borrowed (why why why would it have a hidden latch!?) while a security alarm counted down, and suddenly BAM I got it open and all was well. I literally just could not believe in my own ability to do this and was amazed when I figured it out.
To open an UMBRELLA.
Every time I successfully finish a spin class, I’m on top of the WORLD because I’m positive at the beginning that I will make a fool of myself and fall off the bike. However, 99% of the time I do not fall.
There is that one time I kicked my water bottle clear across the room, but that’s an anomaly.
My point is–I have a problem. I’ve had a problem for a long time: it’s called clinical depression and it doesn’t always go away. The generalized anxiety disorder did go away–and I thank my spirit guides every day that it’s gone and I have a new grip on life. I’m still depressed, though. I still feel like I can’t make a difference in my life or the world at large. I generally feel like I let literally everyone down every day, except for every now and then.
And I share this with you because so many people sit across from me at my desk at Willow or on video chat and tell me the same things I’m telling you here. But in them, I see the light of potential. I show them all of the paths their lives can take and what the potentials are for each choice.
And some of them come back to me, their light within shining, their lives changing because THEY made changes. I know it’s possible. I know it’s real. I see it every day.
My point is…what if it’s time for radical reassignment of who you are? I know it’s that time for me. I need to aggressively make these habits a priority, to plow through whatever used to stop me. Maybe I need to fully, unabashedly, powerfully believe in my ability to change myself and make an impact on the world, even if it’s just one more person. Maybe it’s time for me to believe in my thoughts, my ideas, my feelings, my own intellect, and bask in the love I show others while I amplify it outward.
One of the places to start is to document every day 3 things that I am happy for, and 3 things that I did this day that are remarkable and, also, how I’m feeling at that moment in time. I’m thinking this can’t hurt, it will take only a few minutes – really, the amount of time I’m usually spending watching pet videos on Facebook – and maybe it’s something I’ll be able to share with you all, along with my “Hearts Found in the Wild” photos you can see on my Instagram (@soul_unfold_tarot) and my Facebook (@soulunfold), which I may start sharing here as well.
There has been a wild Valkyrie living inside me for a long time, and I think she’s sick of the bullsh&$. She wants to be free, and I think I’m going to let her. I think I’ve known she’s been there for awhile and have neglected her.
After all this time, she may be what I’ve been seeking. It’s time to be the change I want to see.
In love and light,
Erica

Tarot: The Tower and Power of Failure
The Tarot card and message for today is The Tower. From the major arcana, The Tower has a notorious reputation for heralding destruction and the breaking apart of existing structures.
In other words: change. If I had a dollar for every time someone has told me “I hate change”, I would be writing this from Bali instead of my living room at midnight. LOL!
In the Rider-Waite Tarot deck, The Tower depicts people being thrown from the top of a tall structure. Many psychics likely encountered this symbol in the days before 9/11. Its energy is explosive, life-changing and inalterable.
The Tower also shows a change from being up in the air to down on the ground in pieces. It represents the concept of hitting rock bottom.
And you know what? It’s inevitable. Everything changes. As in most things, there is a blessing within The Tower for each person, individually. You may have fallen from the highest level, but here you are, down at the bottom, looking up, surviving.
Here you are, standing on stable ground instead of a shaky, crumbling, haunted structure. Now you choose how to climb out and rebuild.
Look for the ladder–it’s right in front of you.
What did that make you picture? That’s your ladder. Grab it and climb.
In love and light,
Erica

How to Interpret the Page of Pentacles
What is the message behind the Page of Pentacles Tarot card? The answer lies within you. Tarot cards act as a language between you and unseen forces. What the card provokes within you is the message.
For the Page of Pentacles, the general guideline is that there will likely be a message about money or something else physical, like health. The message you have been waiting for in this arena is imminent. However, you would need to pull a clarifier card to know what that message IS. Make sense?

5 Signs You Have Psychic Abilities
Ever wondered whether you have psychic ability just coiled up within you, waiting to unfold?
Well, you do. Everyone does, but we’re all little snowflakes. Everyone’s brand of psychic gifts is different. For example, I am a psychic medium and a clairvoyant. Sometimes when I am working with my Tarot cards, I can “see”what card will come up before I flip it over. As a medium, I communicate with spirits and guardians from the Other Side.
There are many types of loosely classed “gifts” out there. BuildingBeautifulSouls.Net has crafted a beautiful ultimate guide to psychic abilities here.
But what are some of the signs that you have a natural gift to perform these acts? It’s simpler to identify than it seems.
Parts of your dreams come true.
Do you ever get that queasy feeling in public when you realize something is unfolding in front of you almost exactly as you dreamed it? Consider yourself lucky, because most people do not remember their dreams. If you keep a dream journal, you will begin to tap into your intuition in a way that will guide you for the rest of your life.
Sometimes this manifests as feeling deja vu. If you often feel deja vu (the feeling of having been here before) wash over you, pay attention. This is your intuition trying to communicate with you about a person, place or thing.
You wake up to figures standing around your bed.
First of all, don’t freak out. This happens to more people than you think. Most blink it off as a trick of the dark, or as a leftover dream. However, many believe that these shadowy figures we sometimes see when we awake are our spirit guides visiting while we dream beyond the veil.
Knowing in advance when events will occur.
Ever think of an old friend you haven’t seen in 20 years and then run right into her in the grocery store? That is not coincidence, as your gut will tell you if you listen to it. For years I have kept on and off a “synchronicity journal” where I write down the coincidences in my life that occur in sets of 3s. You’d be surprised what you learn about the world around you and your own intuition.
Strong empathy, compassion and willingness to serve
Those who are called to serve have a stronger connection to the Divine. If you feel great compassion for other living beings and feel compelled to give of yourself, you are likely tapped in to your Divine connection and need to explore it through giving of yourself.
Razor-sharp instincts and instant “knowing” about people, places and things
Have you been credited before with having natural instincts for business, counseling, sports, etc.? All of these uses of your instincts tap into a primal intuition we all share. This muscle can be exercised into a force of intuition to be reckoned with.
If these indicators are not enough to help you identify your gifts, take a look at the palm of your dominant hand. If you have the “line of intuition” or what is called the “mystic cross,” you just might be a psychic in waiting.
In addition to these indicators, some burgeoning psychics will experience inexplicable depression, anxiety and phobias, particularly claustrophobia or nyctophobia (fear of the dark). I was blessed with both of these phobias which persist to this day.

Scrying with Sage
Did you know you can read sage smoke? When you light the smudge stick, pay attention to the quality of the smoke. Light-colored smoke indicates high-vibration energy.
Dark smoke indicates darker, more painful energies are being cleared.
If you meditate with it, you can also see shapes in the smoke. During a reading recently, I saw a family tree appear in the smoke, right before the young lady’s father and grandparents stepped forward to indicate their spiritual presence.
Believe me or not, your perception of our world is layered. As you open up your consciousness, you realize that you have been living in just one small section of it–there are vast spiritual landscapes yet to be explored, right from the quiet of your meditation mat.
Happy Friday, everyone ❤️.
