​In ancient times, divination was used as a way to understand what kind of energies surrounded a certain situation. Almost like the current day weather report! As we know all days are not the same. Certain days just seem to go smooth where things seem to flow in a nice manner and there are other days where getting even the simplest thing done seems like a big achievement! 

So now, if we knew about these energies, then we could better plan our day and conduct activities which are best suited those times- i.e. those activities where we can accomplish the most if conducted during those times.

It is important to note that  we live in a dynamic and living Universe, which responds to our actions and accordingly brings situations and transformations in our life! 

Because of this, it is nice to utilize these various oracle and divination techniques to find out about the energies surrounding a situation, BUT do not try to   find about the future as an outcome, since the future-outcome is something that will reveal itself in due time. Our  job is to do our best  in any given situation and utilize the various tools  (including divination) towards it.

We are all looking to have caring, loving and helpful people in our life. We want to feel loved and also experience love, warmth and sweet emotions for those special people in our life like a life-partner, close buddies and so on. Even though we may feel that there are many people surrounding us- as friends, family and coworkers, this does not necessarily equate to helpful and loving people around us. And particularly in today’s day and age, where broken families and single people are more of a norm rather than an exception; it seems like everyone is so caught up in their own mind and their own web of repeated though patterns that no one is really taking the time or making an effort to really being there or paying attention to others around them, leave alone be loving or caring towards those people!!

This is where Rose Quartz crystal can be very helpful. Its peaceful and loving vibrations emanate love and attract loving energies from the Universe. It helps to attract love, caring and helpful people into your life. It helps you to build loving relationships that are not one-sided or codependent but are built on strong foundations of healthy love and universal brotherhood (divine love).

There are many ways in which you can use rose quartz so as to benefit from its loving and soothing energies.

​For starters you can keep a piece of rose quartz on your desk or at your prayer altar. You can wear rose quartz jewelry- such as a ring, bracelet or even earrings to feel its presence and its energies very close to your body. As we know, anything that is on our person, on your body (as in jewelry) that helps to more easily assimilate its energy into our aura. This further amplifies a crystal’s efficacy- i.e. effectiveness.

In addition, you can also hold a small crystal of rose quartz in your palm while you meditate. Doing this can be very powerful. So, it needs to be done with complete focused intension and without any attachment for the outcome!! Even as you focus and meditate on loving energy entering your life, let the Universe handle all the details. 

To do this- you can hold a crystal of rose quartz in your hand and visualize having loving and caring interactions with people. Visualize having loving and helpful people in your life who care for you and you in turn care for them. Visualize and feel loved and cared for- by the many people in your life and also by life itself. Believe that you are truly loved and cared for by the Universe, the Divine.
 
As mentioned earlier, simply do such a visualization with complete faith and focused intension, but do not get into the details or get attached to the outcome. Do not worry about timelines or the fact that there are still many uncaring people around you or that you have not met that special companion, that life partner that you are looking to spend your life with… all that will come in due time and as per the Divine schedule. 
​
Now do remember that rose quartz will not only help to attract ‘love’ as in emotional relationships in your life; but it will also help to bring in all kinds of loving relationships- such as friendships, mentors, teachers and guides and nice, kind people into your life. Also, rose quartz can help to pacify strife and arguments within your existing relationships. 
 
What you are doing here with rose quartz is focusing your attention and sending forth your wish, your want and your intension into the cosmos. Then the Universal Law of Attraction will formulate (create) and give you what you are seeking in due time as per your karma- your past actions (which determine your fate or destiny) as well as your current karma- your actions which you perform under free-will. 

Basically, the calm, peaceful, loving and soothing energies of rose quartz will help to attract loving energies and people presence into your life.

Pine trees have varied cultural signification in different parts of the world. Mention of these trees have been found in the bible and other ancient texts, reinforcing their symbolic importance throughout various cultural and religious beliefs. 
​
The lush evergreen pine trees are known to last even through the icy cold temperatures. They produce pinecones which in turn produce the pine nuts which provide a variety of nutrition and is part of many staple recipes of ancient traditions. Do note that the spiritual significance for Pine Trees, is different than for the Pinecones.

So, coming back to pine trees, we find that in some cultures like the Native American cultures, pine trees represent wisdom and longevity. In some of the other cultures, they represent fertility and life. Pine trees are also known as the symbol of peace and of eternal love. 

The fresh pine scent is known to invigorate us and simply hugging or being in the vicinity of a pine tree or walking thru a pine forest, is believed to increase our intake of prana (or Chi, Ki) life-force energy.
​
One of the famous Pagan tradition, where people used to decorate the pine or fir trees with decorations to celebrate the birth of the Norse God- Frey, at the end of the year, is incorporated in the modern-day celebration of Christmas; where we typically decorate the pine or fir trees to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

So, if you receive the pine tree as a message from nature, then it indicates that you are getting ready for new starts. New meetings and relationships will be fruitful. Whatever you start now or any new relationships you now develop (or revive existing relationships), then they will have a sense of permanence to them.

Good health, strong vitality, and the ability to regenerate oneself and work one’s way through tough times and emerge a winner are all signified by the evergreen pine trees.

Eternal love and overall goodness are promised when one receives pine tree as a nature message.

Pomegranate has been associated with spiritual significance and natural messages since biblical times... probably from even before that!! The lush pinkish-red insides of the fruit compare very well with blood- that which carries the very life-force (Prana, Chi or Ki) in our body.

​Blood has been associated with power and sacrifice since time immemorial and so it is not very surprising that pomegranate, a fruit that resembles the color of blood and also the inner cells of our body- with its unique inner construction- has many spiritual and esoteric associations!

Pomegranate is one of the healthiest fruits that one can eat. In addition, it has many powerful antioxidants as well as the required necessary nutrients and hormones to improve sperm quality and libido.  In this regard, the pomegranate fruit works as a potent aphrodisiac! 

Not to mention the lush and colorful insides of the pomegranate fruit, which are filled with multitude of individual seeds- reminds one of the abilities of ‘a seed’ to re-grow and re-generate. Throughout several olden cultures, pomegranate has been associated with fertility, eternal life, and love. It is also believed to indicate resurrection- i.e., rejuvenation of life (after death).
​
Because of this, the pomegranate fruit has long been associated with richness and fertility.  In addition, given the many health benefits of the pomegranate fruit, it signifies overall good health and vitality. 

So, if you receive the pomegranate fruit or the pomegranate tree as a message from nature, then they indicate love, romance, good health, and wealth- the entire complete package of happiness and wellbeing.

You can also keep a crystal on your prayer altar. You can light a pink or red candle near the rose quartz crystal while sending out the intension that you are attracting friends and a loving relationship into your life.

​Floriography is the language of flowers, which was an Victorian-era means of communication.

In this, various flowers and floral arrangements were used to send coded messages, allowing individuals to express feelings which otherwise could not be spoken. The language was most commonly communicated through Tussie-Mussies, an art which has a following to this day.

Even though the nuances of the language are now mostly forgotten, red roses still imply passionate, romantic love and pink roses a lesser affection. Similarly white roses suggest virtue and chastity and yellow roses still stand for friendship or devotion.

Also some of the other commonly known meanings for flowers are sunflowers, which can indicate either haughtiness or respect and Gerbera (Daisy) can mean innocence or purity. The iris, being named for the messenger of the gods in Greek mythology, still represents the sending of a message. A pansy can signify thought, daffodil signifies regard, and a strand of ivy signifies fidelity.

​In this way, communicating messages by using flowers was something that was frequently done during medieval times.

Now, do keep in mind that   Florigraphy is a special interpretation of what messages a particular flower should communicate. These do not necessarily have a direct co-relation with how flowers can be used to communicate natural-energy messages. Flower Divination is an entirely different approach to understanding and interpreting Nature-Wisdom (i.e. messages from the natural world).

How flowers are used in oracle wisdom... their divination-interpretation is completely different from Victorian Florigraphy and is something that has been practiced by many ancient cultures since time immemorial!!

Even though we are on a spiritual path, most of us still have everyday jobs and duties. Unless you are living the life of a monk in a monastery, you probably are someone, who needs to earn an income and take care of your family.

​Folks like us, who live an everyday life have to also interact not just with friends and family- but also with many other people in the outside world, who may be living successful lives but could be unaware of their connected-ness to others and this cosmos!
 
This is exactly the reason, why I provide several helpful information that can help us in living comfortably! If you have not still seen our videos or read our articles on Comfort & Spiritual Living, then be sure to check them out.

As we know, all days are not the same. Certain days just seem to go smooth where things seem to flow in a nice manner and then there are other days where getting even the simplest thing done seems like a big achievement! 

Intuitively derived energy readings can help us to understand- what kind of energies are most probable for the day. 

The best time to utilize an Intuitive Guidance is when you need to understand "more" about a situation- for e.g. you are scheduled to attend an interview. In this case, an intuitive guidance can help you to understand more about the situation. How can you create a better impression or is there something that you need to do, so as to ensure a higher chance of success.

​Intuitive guidance can sometimes also give an indication to the outcome of the interview (i.e. if you will receive an offer /not), but it is not advisable to know that in advance, since then you will not do your best but your actions will be clouded by your knowledge of the outcome- if it is positive, you may take things for granted and thus invite failure and if  it is negative, then you may lose hope and not put your  hundred percent effort and turn around a losing situation to  a successful one.

​As people who are on the path of Conscious Living (i.e. those who choose to lead an aware and meaningful life)- we should not believe in some ‘destiny’ and succumb to fate but believe in taking appropriate action in accordance to the situation and energies surrounding it.   

After all, we live in a dynamic and living Universe, which responds to our actions and accordingly brings situations and transformations in our life!

The more you are living a conscious and evolved life, that much more, you will be able to govern how your life and life events unfold.
​
So now the question comes up, how do we ‘divine’ about any situation or event in our life? Stay tuned… I will cover that shortly in the coming posts…

There are many astrologers, psychics and pundits who say- that they can accurately predict the future. And it is possible that they can be correct in some instances.
​
But then, probability is a fact and there are always the odds of an event occurring, that someone can guess or intuit to find out about its outcome. Though, determining the correct result, the exact outcome each time in advance, is just not possible in this dynamic, evolving and ever-transforming universe!!

Check out- Destiny ‘vs’ Freewill- what determines our life? i.e. How freewill and destiny operate in our Life
​
If you have not already read this article, then do check it out. It will help you to understand how destiny and freewill operate in our life.

​We need to remember that, there is no set future which can be determined in a fatalistic way. As mentioned above, it is true that there are certain scenarios/events and situations which are bound to happen (given the strong karmic tendencies around them), but to say that you will experience such and such situation  on any given day or during such period in your life, is to be 'reactive to life'. 

Instead what is more helpful is to proactively understand the type of energies that surround a certain day or a certain situation. I.e. what kind of events, behaviors and so on have the most chances or probabilities of showing up around us. 

Then depending on what it is that one is looking to accomplish and that particular event or situation, one can choose to respond in a best possible manner.
​
This way, you are responding to the Universe and not simply reacting to it. This is extremely important for each one of us who are on the path of Conscious Living.

A Shaman can go into a trance like meditative state, wherein they are able to communicate with the older spirits and gain insight into a problem scenario and also obtain guidance and solutions for solving the situation.   

Shamans can connect and communicate with the spirit guides who help their community by showing the right path in life to the ones, lost to the natural ways of life and also heal the sick by using various herbs, plants and the spirit energy. In this regard, a Shaman elder can play the essential role of a Medicine man- a Medicine healer in their community.

​The role of a Medicine-man (Shaman-healer) or of a Shaman-oracle is of much responsibility. It is essential for proper growth and sustenance of the entire community (their tribe). Because of this, this role rightly obtains much respect from the community. It needs the shaman elder to lead a life of piety, devotion and connection with the natural world and our own essential nature of existence.

A shaman could get messages from animal spirit and totems. They could do such divination for a specific individual or for their community. Similarly, they can “divine” guidance for a specific event or about the energy-trends that are existing and effecting an individual (or their community).

A Shaman’s oracle methods can seem intricate to us- but they need years of devoted service and connection with the natural world as well as the spirit realms to develop a true and deep ability to tap into the ‘divine guidance’.

​And after doing that, they then need to bring the essence of their interaction to us as their divined and intuitive guidance.
