Reiki Certifications at a reduced rate

December "Rants & Raves"


Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?  I am most certain that this caught your attention.  My December newsletter went out this month and it was signed, “Merry Christmas, Jackie”.  Apparently, I have offended some in doing so.  With that said, I think I will make December’s blog a little about my beliefs.
First of all, I come from a Baptist family.  My Grandmother who was a Sunday school teacher and led the missionary meetings for our church and she raised me.  My Grandfather passed when I was 12 years old and was a Deacon at our church for 17 years.  Growing up, going to church for me was not an option, you just did.
So what do I believe in?  Christianity.  I believe in God and Angels.  I believe in the bible and that everything in it did happen.  But I also believe that in “Freedom of religion”, we dissected the Bible into our own beliefs and adopted unified religion such as Baptist, Catholics, etc.  Bottom line, I believe in it all.
With that said, I also have friends that are Pagans and Wiccans.   You may be surprised to learn that we carry many similarities and it does not mean they are bad people.  They respect my beliefs the way I respect theirs. 
In doing a medium reading I can indeed see the other side.  I can also read Tarot cards fluently.  Does this make me a bad person because I am able to do something that others can’t?  I don’t believe so.  I do fully believe that it is a gift and for some unknown reason, I see things that others do not.  Many have asked if I ever had a near death experience, and the answer is yes. I had a full cardiac arrest in 1991.  I can say that things did not begin then, but did become much stronger after the fact.
Through working with the paranormal, I have also learned that evil exists as well.  I think they go hand in hand.  How can you believe in good and not evil, or vice versa?  I have also found with each of those cases that they have done something to draw it in to them.
Now to answer another question.  Do I ever regret working as a full time psychic?  That answer is simple, not at all.  I just wish I would have embraced it and done it sooner than I did.  I find a career in assisting people in need very fulfilling.
So back to the original question….Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?  I would have to say MERRY CHRISTMAS, because that is what I choose to celebrate. 
Now, moving on to December, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas.  My daughter and I certainly did, and we had a wonderful Christmas with my mother.  I also was able to reconnect with a cousin that we have not seen in some time.  In addition to sneaking a little time off.
I still have the Reiki Course on sale for $99 and have had a good response.  I am currently trying to make some decisions on this.  I am toying with the idea of keeping the rate reduced as long as I don’t become overwhelmed with students.  The other idea I am toying with is establishing a forum or facebook group or something for those students or for those with just a common interest.  Of course that will be announced when I figure it all out!  Do I use Reiki on myself?  ALL THE TIME!
I am getting many, many emails asking about a New Years reading.  The email reading is up and available at www.ms-swami.com.  I will set up something for a New Years Special beginning New Year’s Eve running through the first week of January!  Details coming soon!
I will also be cranking out another book in 2013, and will have that underway in the next few upcoming weeks.  For the locals, Central Virginia Psychic Development &Paranormal Research, we did not get to do a lot in 2012.  Most of this was due to the uncertainty of my mother’s health.  Though I do not intend to let the group go, I will call on others in 2013 to assist me in organizing events.
I can say that I have rather enjoyed committing to updating my blog at least once a month and plan to keep up with that commitment in 2013! 
I thank you all for another amazing year, your feedback, your input and everything that you share with me.  May you all have a safe and Happy New Year!!!!

November "Rants & Raves"


First of all YES I am aware that it is now December.  It appears that I ran out of month trying to get my blog up for November!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I certainly did.  I cooked this year and can say that I actually enjoyed it!  I find it hard to believe that Christmas is right around the corner.
My December newsletter should be going out sometime today, if you would like to get on the mailing list please send me an email to Jackie@ms-swami.com.  I try to only send one out once a quarter.  I say this because I personally hate getting blown up with needless emails, and certainly hope my newsletter is not viewed that way!
I also have a couple of local events coming up in the month of December.  With my paranormal team CVAPI, and author Pamela K. Kinney there will be a book signing and hands on paranormal investigation at “The River Road House” featured in her latest book Haunted Richmond II.  This will be held on December 8th, for more information please visit www.cvapi.com.
My next event is Monday December 10th at Brass Monkey in Chester Virginia.  This is a “Body wrap” party open to everyone.  Also, you will meet our leader, Wendy Gano, Presidential Diamond, and she can tell you how she did it in a year.
In other exciting news, I was asked to publish my 2013 predictions for a publication that I am very excited about and will announce this as it becomes available!
My schedule for psychic readings will remain the same in the month of December as I am looking forward to sticking close to home with my family for the holidays.  What else occurs in December?  My birthday!  Hats off to all you Sagittarius out there!
Now to answer some questions….  These questions are coming from “Caroline in South Carolina”, a long time client of mine.
Do psychic abilities run strong in your family?  Somewhat.  You hear many stories of how they skip a generation etc.  However, my daughter is a very gifted medium.  My mother carries a few abilities and can track it back to her great grandmother.  Overall, I think its hard to say, because they are rarely discussed.  I can say everything I have found has come from my Mother’s side of the family.
Is Sasha your only pet?  No, she is my Siberian Husky.  She is 12 years old and with me ALL the time.  (She is like the “Busch Bean Dog”, she hears all of your readings so be glad she can’t talk!)  I also have “Roxy” our cat, she is a Maine Coon and spoilt rotten as well.
Do you ever leave your area or go out of state for psychic readings?  Not very often, but I have before.  I expect you will see a lot more of this upcoming in 2013!!!
Do you spend a lot of time doing psychic readings for your family and friends?  Probably not as often as you would think.  My family and friends were the ones that pushed me to do this full time, and I am grateful that they did.  When the need arises, or in a crisis, they know I am there.  I guess being friends with a psychic can have its advantages!
What is your favorite way to spend your spare time?  Spare time, what is that? Lol.  I guess it depends on the seasons.  My favorite time of the year is spring and summer so those spare moments are generally spent on an activity outside.  I enjoy anything from cook outs with friends to hanging out in the park.  In the fall and winter months, the best way for me to spend my spare time is with a good book.  I love to read!  The problem is finding the time to do so.
That’s all for now guys and gals!  Until next time…

Upcoming in 2013


           2013 will be a year that is all about “Changes”.  At present it appears that a vast part of the population have lost their perspective, as our country stands divided over the recent Presidential election.  This negativity will subside as things begin to move forward.  You can expect changes in our current government, though not well received at first; they will have a positive outcome at large.  Unfortunately I also see that there will be a continued struggle and battle for health care for those that need it as well.
            At some point there is a problem with our fuel supply with a lot of talk about tapping into our national reserve.  There also appears to be a terrorist attack on US soil that cannot be avoided.  With this attack there will be some type of public “Vaccination”. I see this as widespread and affecting all US citizens.
            The largest increase in the job market will come from small businesses instead of large corporations.  There will be many cut backs in large corporations and some that will not be able to hang on any longer.  However, there will be an unexpected growth in entrepreneurs and small businesses across the country.  Small businesses that have barely been hanging on will turn around and begin to thrive.
            There will be an increase in national disasters as well as their magnitude as our seasons begin to change there past patterns.  With this there will be an increase of religious organizations as people begin to worry that the end in near. 
            People’s patterns will begin to change.  There will be a significant decrease in those that travel abroad as they choose to stick closer to home.  There is also a significant decrease in the purchase of new homes and new automobiles.  This is basically due to people getting back to the basics and remembering what is important.  You will see more large spread downsizing, and a lot that will begin to “Save for a rainy day”.
            In matters of the heart you will see more relationships forming than ending.  Long term relationships and marriages will be on the rise, as you will see a decrease in the divorce rate.
            A break through will occur in medical treatment of many now known diseases.  This will be as a result and the use of oxygen.  It will be discovered how something so simple can treat many symptoms of diseases and an increase and demand for hypobaric oxygen chambers.  There will also be an increase of homeopathy and holistic practices as people have the need to get back to the basics.  Diet and exercise will definitely be on a large-scale increase in 2013.
            Overall, this will be a year of people planning ahead and establishing a “Plan B”.  An alternative to their current living situations.
