As a professional Mystic, I often find remarkable things in everyday events. And I usually notice the Big Messages that are intended for me. A recent one really stuck out, bold type, lights flashing, fireworks... I couldn't miss it, and it came from my late husband.
My younger daughter is graduating from high school next week. (She was only three and a half when her daddy died and doesn't remember very much about him.) Last night was her voice recital and after all the students and the teacher sang, the voice teacher had an announcement. She had brought a gift for each of her students.
She made a brief and passionate speech about how this gift was very meaningful to her, that it had changed her life, she'd read it twice already, and she wanted to share this wonderful information with her students.
The book she gave them is Dale Carnegie's brilliant manifesto, How to Win Friends and Influence People.
It was only a few weeks ago that I mentioned the Dale Carnegie course to my daughters, and told them how important it had been to their daddy. He was a proud graduate of the course and posted his diploma in every office he ever worked in.
Well, honey, I lost it. I told my daughter through copious tears, "If your daddy were alive, he would be giving you this book for your graduation!"
Considering all that I know about the workings of the Universe, I know that he was the one who made sure his daughter received the book--and I felt it was far more powerful than if I had thought to give it to her. It was a gift to me too.
Your friendly global Mystic,

Another Big Ol' Truth
A message that has been coming up a lot lately, both for my clients and for me, is that about aligning your energy and working on it the same way you work on the practical, logical, tangible things. Think of the energetic or vibrational wonder that happens to you when you work in your garden. You're physically and practically doing something, taking action, to get your garden to grow. But at the same time, you're thinking about and feeling the goodness of connection to the earth, you're putting your energy and thought into your garden.
Your life is like that. If you don't like your job, then you are only doing the logical part. If you're unhappy in a relationship and you do things to help it like going to counseling, having conversations, or setting up date nights, that is only the logical part. Work on the energy part.
Look at it this way--you were given both intellect and intuition. When you use them both, you are at your best.

Yes, You Can Have What You Want
I've been talking lately about getting what you want and how to do that. Now I am seeing in my client's lives as well as my own how important it is to work on your energy.
Yes, do the practical and tangible things, like doing your job or making phone calls or running your business. Go to networking groups or association meetings, call people, get up in the morning and brush your teeth. Show up.
At the same time, work those thoughts and feelings! We are all in the habit of DOING and we think in terms of DOING. DOING is a good thing, but it's much better when accompanied by THINKING and FEELING.
For example, if you are going to the grocery store AGAIN and you don't enjoy it, think about what you can do to change your feelings about it. What would make the chore FEEL better? Taking the kids or leaving them at home? (When mine were little, it was pretty hard to have them accompany me.) Talking on the phone with a friend while you shop? Hiring someone to do it for you? (It's pretty reasonable - I know a terrific concierge in Austin; just ask.) Or maybe just feeling better about it would feel better.
Maybe that sounds obvious and obtuse. You might say, "Sure feeling better would feel better, but HOW?" Well, start by saying, "I want to feel good about this." And then check out my recording about How to Get What You Want at www.podbean.com/susankmorrow.
Today, just start to THINK about how you want to FEEL. It's a good jumping-off point. Then call me, and we'll get you really going energetically!
Be good!

What's the Difference Between a Medium and a Channel?
A few clients have asked me what the difference is between a medium and a channel. Throw in a question or two about psychics in general and it was time for me to clarify:
I am a medium. Maybe you've heard that before, or maybe you have experienced my work as a medium. But many people don't know what a medium does. And then there's this other word, "channel", that many people have heard but don't understand.
Fair enough. I can understand the confusion, because psychics, mediums (I prefer the proper plural, "media"), and channels are all woo-woo practitioners who deal in the unseen and the metaphysical. AND I have even heard people who ARE these things misuse the terms. So here are my definitions that fit to the very best of my knowledge:
Medium: A living person who communicates in some fashion with the spirits of dead people. A medium may conduct seances or may communicate directly. John Edward is a famous medium whose primary work is communicating with the dead. I am also a medium, although I am not yet as famous as John Edward.
Channel: A person who allows a non-physical entity/ies to enter his/her body for the purpose of communicating with living people. The channel may or may not be conscious of the information coming through him/her. Esther Hicks is a famous channel who channels non-physical energies who call themselves Abraham. I do not channel in this way; however, I do "take cosmic dictation" and channel information from your guides in Mystic Mails. But I don't give my body over. My latest book, Channel One: 137 Messages from the Universe, is comprised entirely of channeled messages.
And what about the psychic? Well, a medium is always a psychic, but a psychic is not necessarily a medium. A psychic is someone who can sense information about others and often predict the future. Sylvia Brown is a famous psychic who also happens to be a medium. I am also a psychic. I personally do not see that a channel necessarily qualifies as a psychic, but channeling definitely requires a special spiritual gift, and it seems likely that a channel might also be psychic in some way.
There, I hope that makes it all clear as mud. If you have any questions about it, you know where to find me!

Making Sense of That Tweet
Hey! Like about half the people I know, I've recently begun to use Twitter. If you're not aware, Twitter (.com) is a mini-blog site. Each entry is limited to only 140 characters. One of the cool things about it is that you can post links there--in this case, I'm going to post the link to my maxi-blog (this one). Convenient!
I want to explain a Tweet (posting on Twitter) that I posted earlier today. I said, "Love those repeated messages. Thanks to my messengers--I get it!"
I thought that might appear a bit esoteric, so here's what I meant. Everything starts with Spirit and your whole life is a presentation of messages that will point you in the best directions to live the life you came here to live. (And it's beside the point, but nobody came into this life to be miserable. Remember my adage from my days as a wee mystic: If you're not at least trying to be happy, you're not doing it right.)
In other words, messages come to you in many and varied forms, including your thoughts and feelings, your body, the people around you, nature, things you read... Anything that catches your attention deserves scrutiny.
SO VERY OFTEN, I find that messages come in duplicate or triplicate. And I know that, just because I noticed something once or twice doesn't mean that's the only time I've received it. These messages are like roaches. For every one you see, there are hundreds of others that you missed.
Ew. Gross analogy. Anyway, I recently heard the EXACT SAME THING from three different people. One person is my new marketing assistant, who told me that she sometimes writes blog entries for her clients. (Not this one, it's really me.) The next person is a friend, who is a successful copywriter, who told me she has started subbing out some press releases. She has a junior copywriter write the first draft, and then she does her magic on it. Saves her a lot of time and effort. The third person showed up today. A new friend, she's a life coach, and she mentioned her blog and how effective it is for her business. She said that she had tried a service that writes the blog for the blogger, then she would edit it to make it her own.
Do these three messages sound almost identical? This happens to me ALL THE TIME--and guess what. It happens to you all the time too! You've probably become somewhat immune to it. And that's why I'm telling you this now. Start paying attention.
For my clients, when I talk about paying attention to the messages, I sometimes use an example about seeing and hearing frogs. Two frogs? You'd better listen up. Three frogs? Now you've got something really important.
So will my next blog post be ghost-written??? Well, I really like writing, so I don't know, but it could happen. I got the message!
Until next time,
y'all be good!

Poof! Manifestation Made Easy
I love it when things go my way! Don't you? Isn't it great when you make a wish and it comes true?
Well, the Law of Attraction dictates that what you wish for will come to you--but you have to hold your mouth just right. Or something like that. I know that for many people the LoA remains a mystery.
I won't get into a whole lecture on that, but I do have a fun story to share about it. Recently, I have been making plans to move. I've been thinking about my dream house, which I designed several years ago. That house has appeared in reality in the town where I want to live... but that's another story.
This is a story about what will go into the house. I was thinking about the loft that will be in the house, and how I want to furnish it. I just like to play with such things. The loft will be the library, lined with bookshelves on either side, with two chairs and reading lamps under the window in the back. In the front of the room, next to the hallway, I want a game table with chairs.
I've never had a game table and am not sure what they look like or where to find one. I didn't worry about those details, I just said, "Oh, and a game table will go right there!" I imagined friends and family members sitting around the table, playing Bananagrams and Rummikub. Maybe the odd game of chess or poker now and again.
Last weekend, I was visiting my mother in that town where I want to live, the town where my dream house has sprung up. She said, "I got this table for Mother when she went to the assisted living place. Do you want it?"
It was a game table.
Happy Manifesting!

Got Ghosts?
Spooked!
A client called to tell me she had gotten a little spooked in her own house. She walked in after work and could just FEEL a presence there. At first, she was afraid there might be an intruder, but determined that wasn't the case. She felt like there was a spirit of some kind present and she felt at least a little fear and nervousness about it. As she lay in bed later, her heart was pounding and her imagination--now fueled by her concerns over the unknown spirit--turned the sound into footsteps!
I was glad she called me, because I was able to allay her fears and give her some pointers about dealing with spirits like that.
First of all, please be assured that there is nothing in the non-physical that can hurt you in the physical. So a spirit or "ghost" is not going to stab you or smother you in your sleep.
Second, usually, if you sense something that frightens you, it is a only manifestation of your own fear. It doesn't mean that there is not a spirit present, but it means that it is not the spirit that is frightening you--it's you. Truly, we have nothing to fear but fear itself.
And third, if you are bothered by this presence, speak to it in love. Say something like, "God loves you" or "There is only love here" or even "I love you". In my personal experience, this has been an effective banishment to wayward and unwanted spirits. And yes, I have had my share of experiences with them!
Alternately, you can ask or tell the spirit that you are willing to help: "Is there something I can do for you? If so, please make it clear to me so that I can help you. If not, you may be excused." And then see what pops into your mind or if something in the room catches your attention.
This information, and quite a bit more, helped my client feel comfortable returning home the next day. If you need more info, you know where to find me!
Until next time, my friends,
y'all be good!
