Psychic Readings, Shamanism & “100th Monkey” Syndrome

The idea of the 100th Monkey comes from a nature observation that took place on an Island in the Maldives about the native Monkeys. On this Island, every Mother Monkey used to teach it’s young how to wash it’s food to get rid of dirt – a banana, potato or other root that was dug up – in the stream. This was a common thing that all Mother Monkeys taught to the young.

But then one day something significant happened, a new Monkey was born and already knew how to wash it’s food in the stream. It never needed to be taught. What was more amazing was that EVERY Monkey born after this was also born with the knowledge of how to wash it’s food free of dirt on EVERY Island in the Maldives. After that it was no longer taught by the Mommy Monkeys, it wasn’t necessary.

The idea of the 100th Monkey has come to represent a leap in consciousness, or a level of group ‘knowing’ that no longer needs to be taught. The idea is that once enough people have a skill or knowledge set that it then becomes part of the collective unconscious and then everyone just KNOWS it.

This idea has been around for ever, and is also referred to as the Akashic records in the magical or psychic world. The slight difference is that the Akashic records are a place where all memory and experience, past present and future is held and where a mystic, psychic or shaman can tap in and draw out the information and knowledge as needed. The hundredth Monkey syndrome on the other hand is when an idea or piece of knowledge becomes common knowledge for everyone.

Studies have been done that show all decision making takes place at the subconscious level. Before a major decision there is a bust of activity in the subconscious mind, which stops once the decision becomes conscious.

The benefit of working with a psychic or Shaman is that they are able to dip down into the collective UNCONSCIOUS in order to draw out wisdom and information to solve problems or heal. This is a level of awareness that isn’t usually available in normal every day life. The difference between a simple psychic and a shaman is that the psychic can only ‘look’ at what is going on, but the Shaman can fix, heal and resolve the problems. The world of Nature and it’s vast experiences, is, to the Shaman, one way that God speaks directly to us about ourselves, our lives and our purpose here.

When the 100th Monkey syndrome happens, it means that something that was once part of the collective unconscious has now become a part of the collective conscious – and is suddenly common knowledge.

The Psychic Voyage – Psychedelic or Not?

The last time I smoked pot I was 14 years old.
It was such a horrible and paranoid experience for me that I never wanted to repeat it. After all, I was already going on these kinds of inner journeys without the aid of outside substances.

The first time I did drugs is another story altogether – that actually happened BEFORE I was born.

Growing up in the counter-culture hippie movement taught me a lot about drugs and their uses and misuses. Since I was always psychically open through all this, I learned that drugs were a real no-no for me personally, it was just too, too much.

But many people who want to pursue an inner journey do want to use drugs and other substances to get there. I found a website that does a great job of giving the overview on what this is all about, you can take a look HERE at Deoxy.

About 10 years ago, I did a channelling where the guides said in no uncertian terms that there “were no schools at this time on planet earth that were capable of handling or teaching the mysteries that the substances of drugs offered.” They went on to warn that each substance has it’s own level of consciousness, and therefore it’s own agenda. This was enough for me.

Of all the people I have known who have used substances to further their journey, none of them have opened in a way that I consider particularly enlightened or enlightening. On the other hand, I have known several who have died from it, and far more who have slipped into something resembling insanity.

Back in the day, when I first started doing psychic readings for clients, I worked at the Psychic Eye Bookshop in Venice Ca. One day, this guy came in to have a reading from me. He sat down in front of me and started asking me all these questions about his studies. I just couldn’t stop staring at the area above his head. I’d never seen anything like it before in my life. It looked like a funnel cloud was coming out of the side of his head – you know, like the hurricane that lifted Dorothy off to OZ.

So I asked him if he did a lot of LSD. He looked startled for a second, then said .”yes” and went on to tell me about all the dozens and dozens of times he’d done it. I told him to stop, that it was causing damage to his Aura, and that it may already be past repair. To me, it was like creating an extra bypass valve on your heart in order to get your blood from one side of your body to the other; both unneeded and dangerous.

You see, we can do all of this stuff naturally. This is what the deeper mysteries of yogic breathing and buddhism are all about. In fact, the body has built in fail-safes to keep you from causing damage or going past the areas where you aren’t ready to go. Using drugs bypass these fail-safes. That’s why people are attracted to them. That’s also why they are dangerous to your psychic and spiritual development.

And in the end, the drugs are not a shortcut to spiritual development. Quite the opposite actually. What happens when someone starts to lean on a substance to access the inner realms is that the substance becomes the goal or ‘god’ of the experience. And real spirituality is lost on the journey.

Winning through Intuition…

It can be hard to navigate through challenging terrain in life, this is why intuition is so very valuable, it is also why it is so important to be careful to only listen to a psychic or intuitive who will lead you in a direction that will help you!

Customer service makes all the difference in the world. It is the ONE thing that sets a good product or service apart from the bad. Recent events with a Real Estate system gone wild and totally immoral prove this, and now we are all paying the price for it. Is it just bad customer service? Pretty clearly the home loan industry didn’t care about people, and went to any lengths to increase their profits over this past decade. This amounts to REALLY BAD customer service. It’s a lot like the parasite disabling the host to death and the complaining that the host isn’t providing it enough nourishment!

My own personal worst experience with customer service involved a Compaq computer, Microsoft and Best Buy (it’s no accident that Best Buy is gone, gone, gone). I was so happy when I brought the brand new computer home and installed it on my desk. Like everyone else who uses technology for business I put all of my important documents on it, saved all my customer and personal contact information on it and basically proceeded to use for mental storage.

What a mistake.

Over the course of the next 20 weeks that computer broke down over a dozen times! And every time I took it in to those guys at Best Buy I got ignored, treated badly and put through endless red tape by slow moving customer service reps. Nobody cared. And I was out of business endlessly while they ‘fixed’ the problem(s). Allegedly. Not really.

But they refused to let me return the heap. Nope, they preferred to prolong the pain, rather than give me a machine that just did what it should!

Once I figured out that Lemon laws protect customers from things like this. I collected the evidence I needed and got my refund from small claims. Then I turned around and bought a Mac!

The judge ruled in my favor and added on unrequested extra for all the software that I lost on the computer. He really understood my pain.

After that I went out and bought an Apple. I am such a loyal Mac enthusiast now that it would take a very high price tag to lure me away again. I hated dealing with my PC crisis THAT much. Of course, the experience had a good side – I discovered that I love the Apple. Talk about GREAT customer service. As bad as my Best Buy/PC problem was = just how good my experience with Mac was. I am now a convert and loyal fan. I should be getting paid commission for raving about them like this, but I’m not, I just love Mac. The system is so very worth the higher price tag that I wouldn’t even THINK of leaving it. I know that the machine will last me at least 5 times as long – and since I am a practical (and essentially cheap) person, that looks like a bargain to me. Especially when you factor in the FRUSTRATION of my past experience. No, I never want to do that again. It’s Mac all the way for me.

There are a few other companies that I’ve had horrible experiences with, and wouldn’t ever go back to again, like BofA, some Internet Marketers and about a dozen Guru’s. Oh, and Hollywood. In Hollywood, you either have to enjoy being stabbed in the back by friends, ripped off, ignored, insulted and slandered, or just get out. But that should be obvious. It’s not a good idea to be deep in a shallow pond. Kind of like beaching a whale. In this story, the whale is me – or at least that’s what they kept telling me. No, they do not like size 6 girls in Hollywood. Size 6 is obese.

The same is true in the world of business, yes there are sharks out there, just as there are in personal experience as well. The key lies in finding the right path through and then taking the necessary actions
