April 2016 "Rants & Raves"

The last day of April…this year is flying by!  Today is the beginning of Mercury Retrograde, running through May 25^th.  As you know, this is the moon phases where you can expect the unexpected.  This one appears to be strong in the financial sector, with a lot of scattered energy in the personal sector.  This is also a time frame of renewals of past acquaintances. 

My websites are still under a major overhaul.  Do not be surprised if you come across some links that are not working or you find them “Under Construction.”  (And I finally have new photos for it, YAY!)  Every month, I hear stories of those that have either fallen victim to scams, or been approached by them.  This has inspired me to post several of those “Common Scams” here.

It has been a productive month for me in working on my “To Do List”.  I did take the time last weekend for a Meetup at the Dooley Mansion at Maymont Park, and thank you to those that attended.  Tomorrow (Sunday May 1^st) there is a picnic at Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond.  This is not sponsored or hosted by me, but by Hollywood Cemetery.  This is an annual event for them with food trucks, so if you’re local please join them.

I have dedicated a lot of my time this month to taking care of some odds and ends.  I am hoping this will allow me to settle in for some writing this summer!  (Including getting Jaselyn’s garden started.) 

For those that are trying to reach me, please remember that you can email me anytime at Jackie@ms-swami.com.  My availability for calls is posted on my calendar an updated throughout the day.

I do want to give a big shout out to my daughter, and a congratulations on her new business!  I am VERY proud of her!  She is specializing in personalizing various items for home décor as well as t-shirts, hoodies, etc.  If you are looking for customized tees this is perfect for small businesses and individuals because there is no minimum order.  You can check out some of the things that she offers here.

The first day of summer will be here before you know it.  So remember to take the time to embrace and just enjoy spring!

Your horoscopes for the month of May, will publish later this evening, so stop by and enjoy!

Until next time…

March 2016 "Rants & Raves"

Hello spring!  It won’t be long now before we start complaining about the heat.  This is one of my favorite times in the year where everything comes into bloom.  I now have everything we need for Jaselyn’s garden and will need to make some time on a pretty day, to get it underway.  This was one of her favorite projects last year.

March has been a busy month for me. I have many new endeavors going on behind the scenes and they are still underway.  I thank you all for your patience in some of the changes on my websites.  I am listening to you and I now realize that some of the things are confusing to you.  This will be addressed in the month of April.

In the month of April, all of my websites are going to undergo a major overhaul.  (For the better!)  With this there is a slight possibility that the website may go down completely as it is under construction.  In the event that this does happen, you may still reach my by email at Jackie@ms-swami.com.

For those of you trying to reach me or looking for an appointment.  Please note that there is a live calendar of my availability that is updated several times a day.

I am still hearing from those that have fallen victim to common scams or are questioning what someone has presented to them.  I will designate an area on my website specifically for this topic.

I am also going to clarify Reiki for you on the website as well.  (I am constantly getting questions on this.)  I am finding that a lot of massage places are now offering Reiki, and I think it is wonderful.  However, Reiki has NOTHING to do with massage!  Reiki does NOT have to be hands on.  If it is hands on, it is the placement of the hands on your chakras (energy fields), not massage.  Part of becoming a Reiki Master is to know how to do this with no hands, or hands off, and learning to do this distantly.

I believe the confusion is that over the years it has also been known as the “Healing Touch.”  When in fact, it does not require hands on.  The “Healing” part is because it is sent into the body for the greater good, healing what is amiss.  In short, it is an “Energy Healing” and nothing more.  Anyway, more on this subject later.

Another subject that I am often asked about is my belief on the “Laws of attraction.”  And yes, I do believe in it!  (“Where thoughts go, energy flows!”)  I am a firm believer that when you keep your thoughts positive, you draw positive things to you and vice versa.  (Meaning if you are negative you can draw that to you as well.)  I know some of you are into making “Manifestation boards” and I support those too!  (These are actual visual boards of the things that you would like to come into your life.)  I believe it is NEVER a bad time to focus on your dreams or your goals!

This year I am resuming my monthly meetings with Central VAPsychic Development & Paranormal Research.  Our first meeting was this month.  It was great to see some new faces!  It is a great opportunity to get together with some like-minded people on varying topics.  Our next get together is a day at the park on Sunday April 24^th at Maymont Park for a tour of the Dooley Mansion.  I am hoping the weather will be wonderful enough for us to enjoy the gardens and petting zoo after the tour.  The month of May there will be a meeting on paranormal equipment.  So if you are local, please feel free to join us!

For those of you that have read or currently reading mybook, I thank you!  You have no idea how much I have enjoyed your input!  This helps me tremendously with the sequel.  I love, love, love hearing your feedback on the characters!

Don’t forget that your free monthly horoscopes will post on Friday of this week.  Upcoming in April, I will have some random YouTube clips go up.

Please join me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter.  (For those of you using Twitter….get the  PERISCOPE the app!  You will see A LOT of me there in the month of April.)

Until next time…

February 2016 "Rants & Raves"

Amazing how I have been meaning to write my blog for the last few days and just finding time to get to it.  Although we gained an extra day this year in February, it does appear that the month has flown by!

I hope you all had a great Valentine’s day and are now getting ready for St. Patrick’s Day.

I apologize to those that subscribe to my blog and the monthly horoscopes.  I generally email these out, however I simply ran out of time.

For those that have purchased my book, THANK YOU!  I am REALLY enjoying hearing your feedback.  (That certainly does help me with the sequel!) 

Also a big THANK YOU, in working with me on the transitions to my website this month.  This is the first month that I have weeded out the 800# for psychic readings.  This process is going well!  Please remember that paypal will remain an option for you and is backed by MasterCard.

For those that are using the Call Now option, there is a live calendar on that page.  It updates several times a day.  If you need a specific time, please let me know.  It will also give you an idea of when I am available and when I am not.

We are officially on the countdown until spring!  However, if you are in the Virginia area, do not be surprised to see snow on and off throughout the month.  Hang in there it is almost over!

This coming Saturday March 5^th, we have a meeting for new members of like minded people for Central Virginia Psychic Development& Paranormal Research in Chester, VA at 2pm.  If you are available please feel free to join us as it is open to the public.

I did want to mention that I am hearing a lot about psychic scams circulating from my clients.  Please do not fall victim to spells, curse removals, aura cleansings etc.  Feel free to email me any time if you care to discuss this further at Jackie@ms-swami.com

In March you can expect a solar eclipse on March 8^th, the Super Moon will follow this.  Though we have some upcoming Super Moons, this one will be the strongest.  The best word to describe it would be “Intense”.

Don’t forget, your free monthly horoscopes will publish tonight on my website.

Join me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter.

Until next time…

January 2016 "Rants & Raves"

Happy New Year!  It is hard to believe that we are coming up on the end of the first month of 2016.  I am expecting that this will be a great year, a lot of changes, but a great year.

If you are on the East Coast, I am certain that you are over the snow!  However, I have to say I am looking for another blast in a couple of weeks.  (And hopefully not ice!)

We have cleared Mercury Retrograde!  (Ended on the 25^th)  Although it may take a few days to clear the effects from it completely.

For those that follow my blog, you have heard a lot about my book.  It has finally been released!  You will find a preview of Chapter One here, as well as it is available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle.

Though it features a bride on the cover, it is NOT a paranormal romance.  (An example of a paranormal romance would be a vampire that falls in love with someone.)  Twist of Events is a fiction thriller that has to do with a group of ghost hunters.  It is all about those ghost hunters and the location.  (With a few unexpected twists along the way, hence the title.)  There is no “horror” to the book, but does include some paranormal activity.

For those that have read it, or currently reading it, I thank you so much!  Please remember that those Amazon reviews are crucial in this starting out.  I am also willing to hear from you as the sequel is underway. Also, if you are aware of someone that does book reviews, please feel free to email me at Jackie@ms-swami.com.

However, between now and the sequel, there will be another publication.  I am currently working with my daughter on a Planner, a daily organizer, that will be available sooner then I expected.  More on this soon!  (But I can say, you will be able to start it any month of the year!)

This year is my 10^th year in business!  With that a lot of changes are occurring.  Some on the backside of things and some you will begin to see on my websites.  In the next week or so, you will see some different changes in those of you that call in.  The 800# I use, I am eliminating.  As some of you know, I had a lot of technical difficulties with this service in 2015.  (Also a lot of expense.)  Therefore a new option will be put in place.

Also I am expanding my merchant services with Mastercard and Visa.  For those that are fond of PayPal I am keeping that in place as well.  I have been with them for 10 years, they are backed by Mastercard and I have received great service from them. 

In addition, I a lot of you prefer appointments.  There will be a system in place, allowing you to pay 24-hours prior to your appointment will show you my availability and will do the time conversions for you.  So a lot of subtle changes, that will hopefully be improvements.

In regards to YouTube, I will still continue to upload videos.  I am not certain if this will be weekly or monthly, but I am continuing to use that YouTube channel.

Your free monthly horoscopes will continue to post on my website the first of each month.  That will not change.  Currently there is an extended version up for the month of January.

Remember the best times to reach me are between the hours of 1pm to 1am.  As always, join me on Facebook, and I send out random specials on Twitter.

REMINDER:  Valentine’s Day – February 14^th!

Until next time…
