What Are “Aspects” and How do They Work?
The following is an adaptation of material that was written for a client, as part of a online time slot to explain and answer questions about the concept of spiritual/metaphysical aspects. These questions arose as they were reading my book, where the concept is mentioned in one of the readings. The result was a fairly comprehensive explanation which I decided (…)

Does Hell Exist?
The concept of Hell portrayed in religion does not exist in a literal sense. There is no such a thing as a realm of eternal damnation to which you’re sent for all eternity based on an arbitrary measurement of good deeds and sins. Life would be infinitely depressing and pointless if you had a single opportunity to be judged (without (…)

What is a Chakra?
The human body is composed not just by the physical biology but also of superimposed counterparts of immaterial nature called “subtle bodies”. These subtle layers are akin to versions of the physical body but made of energy rather than physical matter, stacked and contained within each other like the layers of an onion, being the physical layer the innermost one, (…)

Synchronicity: What Is the Spiritual Meaning of 444?
With Spiritual Awakening one of the things you may experience is an increase in Synchronicity, which often accompanies the process of awakening itself. As you’re exploring Synchronicity and being shown certain sequences of numbers, letters, or symbols, one that might pop up repeatedly is the 444, or sequences of digits with the number 4. Repeating sequences – in particular those (…)

What is a Starseed?
A Starseed is a spiritual being who chose to come to incarnate on Earth from higher stages of spiritual progression i.e. from Densities higher than the Earth’s current 3D. The term refers to a person who, despite being human, spiritually is not “from” planet Earth.

Angels Don’t Incarnate as Humans?
We’ll often say in the spiritual field that angels have their own spiritual nature and hierarchies, and don’t incarnate as humans. So is it true, false, or somewhere in-between? First and foremost, the Angelic Realms are a hierarchy of spiritual progression separate from our own. We, the spiritual entities incarnating in the physical plane (in this instance on Earth as (…)

Is Being Mean to Others Part of “Being True to Myself”?
I’ve often described spirituality as the personal process of always being true to yourself, or at least involving this to a large extent. However, in the process of trying to be genuine and respect your feelings, you may at points find yourself at odds with your own anger, resentment, frustration, etc. These emotions can be strong, powerful, intense, and may (…)

Do We Reincarnate as Both Genders?
The following was taken from an email follow-up that took place for the reading To Believe in Love. In this reading one of the things that’s mentioned is a female past-life, whereas the client was male, and upon receiving the reading he expressed some surprise at the idea of having been a woman in a past-life. And while this may (…)

Do You Choose Your Next Life, or Is It Chosen for You?
A fairly common theme and question regarding reincarnation, is whether we choose the next life and its circumstances, such as our parents. Or, if these things are chosen for us, imposed and dictated by an external authority. Or even, if they are random, assigned in a chaotic manner. To begin with, no circumstances in your life are random in a (…)

The Difference Between Mind, Spirit, and Soul
The following is an adaptation of one of my answers on Quora, which asked what was the difference between Soul, Spirit, and Mind. You can see the original answer here. The Soul is the portion of you that retains the highest possible level of consciousness and is closest to Source. It’s the part of you that is purely formless and (…)

Karma: Punishment, Balance, or Something Else?
There’s a moment in the evolution of the spiritual being when he leaps in consciousness from 3D to 4D. This transition is individual. It isn’t dependant (as in being impaired, impeded) on others making the same transition – although the process may be assisted if they do. But its nature is inner first and foremost. It happens when the spiritual being is ready for it, and not before. The (…)

What “Love Yourself First” Means
To love yourself means to be in touch with how you feel, and then acting in a way that respects it. To love yourself is not necessarily an emotion. It doesn’t obligatory mean you sit down and try to experience warm fuzzy feelings about yourself. It’s (also) about choice. Let’s say there’s a corporate dinner being hosted by the company you work for. And let’s say (…)

The Difference Between Thought and Intuition
Your mind operates by going through cyclical patterns. Once you think about one concern, you move on to the next; once you go through that one, you’ll move on to the next – until you’re back at the first concern, or similar. Thoughts are generated “semi-automatically” at the mental level. This means that, much like breathing, you can momentarily take control over (…)
