Renewal – Geranium: You are being offered a chance to awaken to a

new life. You may need to deepen your roots and anchor yourself by

taking stock of what you would like to create. This is a time to start

again and grow a strong foundation.

Soulmate – Rose without Thorns: This card indicates changing old

communication patterns and being open to a new way of interacting.

You may no longer be able to have conversations that don’t sustain

your authenticity. Freedom lies ahead – better than you can imagine.

Perfection – Righteous Raspberry: This card indicates protection

and an inner conflict between wanting to look good and having

compassion for others. Remain kind and unattached to an outcome.

Being right and letting others know that you are right may not

support the understanding you desire.

Complacency – Crimson Dreams: Life-force energy must be taken

seriously. Are you standing tall in your own dreams or trying to build

on someone else’s? Sadness and an inability to disassociate from a

lost dream can show up here. It is time to walk away from anything

that does not deeply resonate with you. Release and be free.

Insecurity – Demon Red Rainbow: Energy turned within can lead to

fear and stagnation. Courage is necessary if you are to be fearless

and move forward. This is a message to grow up inside, into a greater

energy, and to invoke courage from the angels to progress.

Discovery – Pink from Pinkton: In the past you may not have

been fully prepared to face facts. Being willing to take the journey

regardless of the outcome will prove rewarding. Get ready to carry

a commitment through to completion.

Acceptance – Cherry Heart: Innocence and an inability to see one’s

gifts are indicated, as well as the protection of spirit guides, good luck

and an increase in self-esteem and confidence.

The yellow cards of the third chakra (the solar plexus

chakra) reveal our planning processes. do we have

a logical or a scattered approach? because they represent

thinking and problem solving, yellow cards reveal our ability to

resolve issues. in essence, they show what’s on our mind.

in Yellow, we turn on the lights and let the spirits know we are

home. if we don’t let them know where we are, they cannot

bring us our desires. ultimately, the third chakra relates to our

instinct and to how our life is directed by it. When we can see

how our instinct guides our thoughts, we will understand

why we do what we do.

and when it relates to our emotions, instinct is frequently the

first thing that gets shut down. remember what i said? look to

the previous chakra (the second chakra in this case) if you feel

blocked. every decision we have ever made is made in a flash:

to move forward or to stop. There is a moment, a split second

in which we decide. in this chakra you decide if you will allow

magic into your life.

attributes of these cards. When you deny your heart’s knowledge,

challenges will present themselves.

Here you will find a definition of personal leadership and redefine

beliefs that no longer serve you. Personal responsibility will be

brought into play.

The blue cards are a reflection of how you relate to the world. all

matters concerning self-expression will be revealed. These include

personal forms of expression such as writing, art, speaking and

presentation skills. The resulting experiences in your life are linked

to how you communicate with the world around you. in essence this

means that you will not get what you ask for, but you will get who

you are, reflected back to you.

The first chakra relates to the source of your energy and to how

you are building your foundation. Think of the root chakra as a

platform. The red cards represent the support you have created or

are creating for your future.

The root chakra cards show us a new way to bring our dreams

to fruition. They denote beginnings and reveal how to create

a solid foundation in tangible form. keep this in mind: if you are

not yet creating what you say you desire, you may need to grow

your energetic root deeper and wider into the earth plane.

an abundance of red cards in a reading is a strong indication

of how you are building your foundation, and will offer energetic

ideas about what is necessary for you to manifest. These cards

represent the beginning of an undertaking – and may guide you

away from the old ideas that no longer work in your life.

The orange cards represent our emotions and how we relate to

them. in the second chakra you can learn emotional discipline,

if you choose. You need to master the skill of steering your

emotions as you would a ship on the high seas. This is very

important in manifesting.

The orange cards reveal your emotional experience in a particular

situation. if you are struggling with your feelings, look back to the

red chakra – the root chakra – for the answer. Why? because you

source your emotional experience from a particular foundation or

belief created in your root chakra. This helps you to understand

where your emotions are coming from.

Next, observe your feelings rather than act on them, and your

angels can speak directly to you through the emotions revealed in

these cards. However, you must stand fearlessly and observe your

emotions; if you can do this, you have begun the journey

into manifestation. You can walk the path you have previously

only wished for.

The fourth chakra – the heart chakra – relates to matters of the

heart. in manifesting, we are always blocked if “our heart is not in it”.

There is something very pivotal about every green card, as though

each one indicates a key moment of personal choice. They tell

us about the “heart of the matter”. in this chakra we decide

whether we will proceed or whether things will get kicked back

to our yellow chakra, where we spend time thinking without

progressing our decisions.

in essence you will see here whether your heart is truly invested

in the actions you are willing to take. every green card owns the

distinction of revealing what happens when you do – or don’t –

follow your heart. The question these cards ask is, “What does your

heart tell you?”

brow chakra is the third eye and houses all that is hidden within,

including our intuitive knowing. The cards often reveal family

agreements made before you were born and karmic issues, which

you have brought into the world to work out.

The sixth chakra reveals your intuitive focus and your inner knowing.

The cards in this chapter may reveal the behaviours you’ve either

inherited or unknowingly chosen to copy from your family of origin.

This reflects where you are in terms of your own awareness and

The law oF liGhTThe Secret Teachings of JesusLars Muhl

The Law of Light is the result of Muhl’s many years spent studying Aramaic and the techniques of Yeshua (Jesus). Through the Aramaic language, his teachings offer not just another interpretation of the New Testament, but the unveiling of a secret message that attempts to settle centuries-old conceptions of sin, and to once again connect man with the heavenly spiritual source. The core of Yeshua’s Aramaic message is intimacy, freedom, selfl ess awareness, unconditional love, compassion and forgiveness. In all he says, there exists a hidden invitation to us to be present in, and dedicated to, everything with which we engage.

lars muhl was a successful musician and student of religion and esoteric knowledge. In 1996, he was struck down by an illness that neither doctors nor alternative therapists could diagnose. His experience was described in his bestseller The O Manuscript. Lars was one of Watkins Books’ 100 Most Spiritually Infl uential Living People of 2013 and 2014.

In one compelling volume, Osho discusses the ancient Taoist text, The Secret of the Golden Flower – considered a synthesis of all the great religions, and a stripped-back ideal of where spiritual seekers are placing themselves now. Within its pages Osho demystifi es all the important terms used by the Chinese mystic Lu Tsu, and shares his meditation exercises. He also outlines the qualities of animus and anima – our male and female energies – and explains the importance of their relationships inside each of us. The book includes valuable techniques and gives specifi c instructions on the Taoist Golden light meditation.

osho is one of the best-known and most provocative spiritual teachers of our time. The Sunday Times has named him one of the ‘1,000 makers of the 20th century’. More than two decades after his death, the infl uence of his teachings continues to grow, reaching seekers around the world.

TRIUMPH OVER PROCRASTINATIONKnowing what you need to do is one thing. Doing it is quite another. We all know how it feels when procrastination tempts us with her distractions; how challenging it can be actually to begin a task we’d rather not do at all. This week, stop procrastinating: every day, give yourself a short amount of time – say, 15 minutes – to work on a particular task you’d rather not do. Dive into it – 15 minutes isn’t that long – and your task will be underway. Once you’ve started, the 15 minutes will fly by and you may just keep going, even perhaps until you’re done.

E X P L O R EApril is your time to explore. This month, open your senses to the world beyond only what you see. Like a bird on the wing sensing its way to new worlds, you have within you an innate desire for learning and discovery – even if sometimes that means digging deep, tapping into all your five senses and finding courage. Unlike some birds, though, you need not fly far to explore new worlds. This month, think of every day and every experience as an opportunity for exploration. Perhaps you’ll venture into unchartered territory, reminding yourself of the potential for reward that lies just around every new corner. Insight, self-awareness and learning might allow you to explore your own life, belief patterns and behaviours, so that you can hone your life skills and better understand the beliefs and behaviours of others. And what about the small things? Sometimes we’re so busy with big exploration, we forget that exploring what we experience on a daily basis – even the food that we eat – can reveal just

how amazing what’s already around us, right here and now, can be.

APRIL

M A R V E LWith every day, week, month and year that passes, we grow more accustomed to the world around us. This is why November, the penultimate month of the year, makes the perfect time to take a pause to marvel at what – and who – is already all around you. Your world is a wondrous place, and it is filled with countless little miracles. In your busy life, chances are you often breeze right past life’s precious touches – forgetting to marvel at the flowers that spring up in the cracks in the pavement, turning your gaze from the stars that radiate above you to focus instead on the ground beneath your feet, complaining about a thunderous change in the weather rather than marveling in the wonders of nature. When you allow yourself to be filled with wonderment, delighting in the apparently ordinary, reminding yourself to be entranced by the details, you’ll have moments of recapturing yourself as a child – wide-eyed with excitement

and striving to make the most of every moment you have.

W E L C O M E T O 2 0 1 5 !It’s a new year – and a great time to break old habits, launch new ideas and seize fresh opportunities. Let’s make 2015 a year to carve out more time for yourself, seize hold of your dreams and spend more time with those you love. This journal is the perfect place to start. Not only does it feature plenty of space for daily planning, it also provides inspiring weekly and monthly advice and suggestions from positivity blogger, Dani DiPirro, for how to make the very most of each and every day.

Do you ever feel that you’re drowning in your to-do lists? That, even though you’re ticking things off, perhaps nothing is really getting done with your full attention? Do you ever wonder whether you’re really making the most of every day? If so, then this is the journal for you. Over the course of the year, Dani DiPirro gives practical, accessible and inspirational advice tailored to making your life a more positive, fulfilling and loving place to be. Taking one life-enhancing theme each month makes it easier to focus on everything you set your mind to and to stay inspired, while still tackling the jobs that need to get done. You might not be able to have it all, but you can certainly make the most of what you have!

Month by month, you’ll find one of the following themes chosen to motivate, encourage and empower: Organize, Love, Change, Explore, Create, Nurture, Inspire, Refresh, Learn, Share, Marvel and Believe. Each week features an inspiring quotation along with an easy-to-accomplish exercise related to the theme for that month. The quotations and exercises aim to encourage you to take small, positive actions that will not only become integral parts of your life, but also help life become a bit more manageable week by week.

Designed as a resource for enriching your daily life, this journal will guide you on a journey of awareness and fulfillment as you go about your everyday activities, helping you make the most of this year while providing you with wisdom and insights that will stay with you for years to come.

So here’s to your year ahead, a year filled 365 amazing days to make matter!

TRIUMPH OVER PROCRASTINATIONKnowing what you need to do is one thing. Doing it is quite another. We all know how it feels when procrastination tempts us with her distractions; how challenging it can be actually to begin a task we’d rather not do at all. This week, stop procrastinating: every day, give yourself a short amount of time – say, 15 minutes – to work on a particular task you’d rather not do. Dive into it – 15 minutes isn’t that long – and your task will be underway. Once you’ve started, the 15 minutes will fly by and you may just keep going, even perhaps until you’re done.

This month I am grateful for...

In what ways did you create your own luck this month and how did this make you feel?

What else have you created this month and how did it feel to make something that didn’t exist before?

What experiences would you like to create more of this year?

MAY OVERVIEW

O R G A N I Z E2015 has arrived! The beginning of this new year is an opportunity to wipe the slate clean and get organized. Whether you’re organizing things, thoughts, time or ideas, this month you’re going to set your mind, spirit and living space on the right course for the year ahead. Each week, you’ll find an exercise that will help you establish your priorities in life, making time for the things you love to do, as well as making sure you don’t put off the things that may seem insurmountable or unappealing. You’ll learn strategies to help bring you closer to your objectives for the year. You’ll also discover ways to make sure that all aspects of your life are decluttered, rid your life of items you no longer use and shelve thoughts that might hinder your progress. Organizing doesn’t just mean putting things in a proper place; it’s also about creating a sense of balance in your life that gives you time for work and play, and for yourself and others. Perhaps most importantly, learning to organize will give you the skills to make it easier to

make every day matter.

JANUARY

E X P L O R EApril is your time to explore. This month, open your senses to the world beyond only what you see. Like a bird on the wing sensing its way to new worlds, you have within you an innate desire for learning and discovery – even if sometimes that means digging deep, tapping into all your five senses and finding courage. Unlike some birds, though, you need not fly far to explore new worlds. This month, think of every day and every experience as an opportunity for exploration. Perhaps you’ll venture into unchartered territory, reminding yourself of the potential for reward that lies just around every new corner. Insight, self-awareness and learning might allow you to explore your own life, belief patterns and behaviours, so that you can hone your life skills and better understand the beliefs and behaviours of others. And what about the small things? Sometimes we’re so busy with big exploration, we forget that exploring what we experience on a daily basis – even the food that we eat – can reveal just

how amazing what’s already around us, right here and now, can be.

APRIL

MARCH

C H A N G EThis month change is afoot! But don’t panic – the transformations you make will be for the better. Perhaps you’re someone who thrives on change, or perhaps you’d rather keep things just as they are. Either way, the exercises this month will show you how even the smallest change – a little tweak here or there – can ripple through your life to transform what already is into what could be. You’ll learn how a simple shift in perspective can turn a negative situation into a positive one and how breaking a habit can help you to feel empowered throughout your life. Best of all, you’ll learn that change is one of life’s little inevitabilities and that sometimes allowing yourself to ride the wind like the seeds of a dandelion clock, letting the rush of excitement lift and envelop you, offers an opportunity for something new and wondrous to happen. This month, open your heart to change, strive to accept it (even if you’re afraid to) and let it

fill every day with potential and possibility.

BELIEVE IN POSITIVE PROGRESSUse this week to reflect on how the good things about 2015 can inform your year ahead. What did you do well in 2015? What activities, interactions and events have deepened your understanding of the world and of human nature (your own, or the nature of others)? Your journal is your greatest friend for this exercise – flick back through its pages and remind yourself of everything you’ve learned or done this year. When you’ve reabsorbed its wisdom, its work is done – now you can live for the year ahead.

The oCCUlTThe Ultimate Book for Those Who Would Walk with the Gods Colin Wilson

Colin Wilson’s classic work, The Occult, is the essential guidebook to the mind-expanding experiences and discoveries of the 20th century. Republished a year after the author’s death in December 2013, and with a new foreword by Colin Stanley, this edition celebrates Wilson’s enduring achievements and his monumental artistry. His genius lies in his distinctive ability to clarify without simplifying, seeing the occult in the light of reason and reason in the light of the mystical and paranormal. The Occult is an indisputable triumph; its interpretation of the supernatural, the history of magic and our own latent powers remains as refreshingly optimistic and invigorating as it fi rst did 43 years ago.

Colin wilson (d. 2013) was a prolifi c English author. He wrote many books on subjects such as the paranormal and philosophy, including The Outsider and Mysteries. The Occult is regarded by some as his ‘tour de force’.

God’s BlUePriNTScientific Evidence that Earth was Created By Humans Christopher Knight

Does God exist? Whilst the case has been hotly disputed over recent generations with scientists on one side and theologians on the other, evidence either way has been thin on the ground. But now new information has become available, which appears to provide hard-nosed evidence of God’s existence. Nothing less than God’s ‘blueprint’ appears to have been discovered – found by chance by the author while researching the Neolithic people of Western Europe. Leading you through the evidence step-by-step at the close of the book you will be able to make your own judgment as to whether the case is proven or not.

Christopher knight is the co-author of several international bestsellers, including The Hiram Key, Civilization One and Who Built The Moon? He runs a marketing company in Yorkshire, and travels the world giving lectures. He is a frequent broadcaster on radio and TV, as well as online.

JerUsalemThe Real Life of William BlakeTobias Churton

The hymn ‘Jerusalem’, with its famous words by William Blake, stirs our hearts with its evocation of a new holy city built in ‘England’s green and pleasant land’. In Jerusalem, Churton weaves an enthralling tapestry out of the threads of Blake’s spiritual quest. For some, Blake is a ‘romantic poet’ whose plain language, simple verse forms and sympathy with everyday humanity is deeply moving. To others, he is a revolutionary, an angry rebel with ideas about free sex. This biography is essential for those who seek spiritual awakening and an antidote to both materialism and to the commercialization of wonder.

Tobias Churton is a leading scholar of Western Esotericism, a tradition that encompasses Blake’s deepest infl uences. Honorary Fellow and Faculty Lecturer in Western Esotericism at Exeter University, Tobias holds a Master’s degree in Theology from Brasenose College, Oxford. His many books include Elias Ashmole and Aleister Crowley: The Biography.
