Sacred Geometry Readings:
This is an interactive reading through the use of Sacred Geometry cards. During this session Susan will use intuitive guidance and cards to connect with deep realms of consciousness. This can help you to gain awareness into certain patterns and find out what emotions are influencing you and possibly sabotaging you to realize your dreams. Through your participation any emotions that are not in line with your highest good any more will then be cleared and your sub-consciousness will be "re-programmed". This reading can help you to turn your pitfalls into challenges and are meant to be used for self-empowerment and conscious evolution. Click here for more information.

Book of the Month
Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself
by Michael Singer, October 2007
Who are you? When you start to explore this question, you find out how elusive it really is. Are you a physical body? A collection of experiences and memories? A partner to relationships? Each time you consider aspects of yourself, you realize that there is much more to you than any of these can define. In this book, spiritual teacher Michael Singer explores the question of who we are and arrives at the conclusion that our identity is to be found in our consciousness, the fact of our ability to observe ourselves and the world around us. By tapping into traditions of meditation and mindfulness, Singer shows how the development of consciousness can enable us all to dwell in the present moment and let go of painful thoughts and memories that keep us from achieving happiness and self-realization.
Divided into five parts, the book offers a frank and friendly discussion of consciousness and how we can develop it. In part one, he examines the notion of self and the inner dialogue that all of us live with. Part two examines the experience of energy as it flows through us and works to show readers how to open their hearts to the energy of experience that permeates their lives. Ways to overcome tendencies to close down to the rest of the world are the subject of part three. Enlightenment and the embrace of universal consciousness are the subject of part four. And finally, in part five, Singer returns to daily life and the pursuit of "unconditional happiness." Throughout, the book maintains a light and engaging tone, free from heavy dogma and prescriptive religious references. The easy exercises that figure in each chapter help readers experience the ideas that Singer presents.

CD of the Month
The Secret Universal Mind Meditation II
by
Kelly Howell, 2008
This program takes you deeper into the magic and mystery of the Universal Mind. All the love, abundance and joy you want already exists within you, the secret is in discovering it. Through repeated nightly listening you will move into alignment with Infinite Intelligence. As you attune to the Universal Mind, and surrender personal will to Divine Will, what you need and want comes to you. Manifesting then becomes easy and fun. Many have already discovered this for themselves. Now you can too.
With this program you'll overcome limiting, outmoded beliefs that have hindered your ability to create the life you've always wanted. While theta and delta waves gently lull you to sleep, The Secret Meditation II re-programs your mind with ideas that unleash your power to create a flourishing life that fulfills you on every level.
How is The Secret Meditation II different?
The same powerful messages are delivered in the second person to reprogram your subconscious mind from another essential perspective. This incarnation of the Secret Meditation goes even deeper into the re-programming process because it's important to hear the truth about who you really are-- spoken to You.
All the messages are audible and there are no subliminal messages. If you alternate between both versions you'll be astonished by the impact they'll have on your life.
Through nightly listening, your subconscious will accept the knowledge it receives as true. When this happens, what you need and desire comes to you. And there's nothing you need to do except relax and listen. If you fall asleep while listening, that's even better; the messages are still absorbed into your subconscious.
As negative beliefs are replaced with self-empowering truths about your self, you'll start attracting people, ideas and opportunities that support you in making your dreams a reality.
New titles from Kelly Howell also available: The Secret to Attracting Wealth & The Secret to Attracting Love.

Life Purpose
By Susan Verhoogt, Reiki Master & Healing Touch Practitioner @ the Divine Mine
This is a topic that I've been fascinated with for a long time. What does it mean - life purpose? How do I know if I have one and if I do, what is it? There is much being said that before we incarnate and embark on our journey on Mother Earth we have a set plan of the lessons we are going to learn while here, and that we have a set purpose. In the movie "The Secret" however, author of the "Conversations with God" series, Neal Donald Walsh, claims that "there is no black board in the sky that has your life purpose written on it". Needless to say there is a lot of confusion around this topic. Or at least, a diversity of opinions and beliefs. To me, it is always important to be open-minded and to not rule anything out as I know that there is not one person who has the one truth - there are just many layers to it. I found that the whole idea of a life purpose can put a lot of pressure on people, including myself. One day last week, as I was sitting in my living room and looking out the window. I looked at the trees, the sky, the sun, felt their energy and noticed how they were all fully emerged in beingness.
And as I was sitting there, just observing, it suddenly dawned on me; what if life purpose has nothing to do with what we "do"?
So far I had linked life purpose with the type of work and hobbies I do . What if life purpose had nothing to do with this at all? What if life purpose can also be things like being compassionate towards oneself and others, caring, gentle, patient, and so forth? And that the job or hobby we do is a way of giving us the opportunity to experience this? There is a saying: "We are human beings , not human doings". Which made me think: What if life is about embracing the beingness of our existence through doing?
Since early childhood I had a curiosity towards life. I could watch an ant hill for hours, looking at all the ants and wondering how they knew what each individual task was. I wondered where I came from, where I am going to, where I am now. Although life has brought me many lessons in ways I could never have predicted, I have never lost this sense of curiosity and don't believe I ever will (what coincidence - my sun sign is Gemini - lol). It has led me to explore many modalities, and an urge to share my insights with others as well as learning from others.
As mentioned before, I have decided to expand my services at the Divine Mine; I will now be including readings through Sacred Geometry Cards, Holographic Activations and Channeling. If you are interested to find out more please click on one of the previous links. My mission and passion is to help you find answers to the questions like the ones I've been asking myself; Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I now? Where am I going? What are my pitfalls? How can I turn these into steppingstones?
As I believe we are all one and all teachers and students at the same time, I'm looking forward to connecting with you and learn from you as well. Thank you for the opportunity you are giving me!

Pisces
February 19 - March 19, 2008
By Carl Klimuk, Astrologer, Master Herbologist & Wholistic Practitioner @ the Divine Mine
The ingress of the Sun into the sign of Pisces signals the endpoint of the winter season.
Generally, when the Sun (the central life force of our solar system) enters into a sign it affects every one of us in some way, when it passes into the sign of Pisces it is a time when we must seek inspiration in our lives. It is also a time to reconnect with faith, trust and hope.
Pisces is the sign that encourages us to seek out inspiration in all its forms. Have you been feeling uninspired in your work, relationships or personal goals and visions? Pisces reminds us that inspiration is the magic spark of life. It is what gives life meaning and purpose. Without inspiration to guide our thoughts and our actions, life would become a black and white world with many shades of grey. Pisces can see the awesome potential that exists in every one of us. When we do not live to our maximum potentials or ideals we turn our backs on our very purpose for being here. Pisces tries to remind us that we are here to be the best we can be in every situation. Life according to Pisces is not a competition, rather it is meant to be a motivational existence where everyone in their radiance shines more light unto their fellow brothers and sisters. Those that succeed in reaching their maximum potential are meant to inspire and teach others on how to reach theirs.
Pisces also tries to remind us about reconnecting with faith. Faith is one of the hardest concepts that we humans have to understand. It requires us to learn how to trust, and this trust has to come in the form of no proof. Prove love! How can love be measured according to the scientific method? Is love 20 degrees Celsius? Is it 1.5 meters? Is it 100 pounds? Proving things such as love or God in a way that presents "proofs" is no proof at all. Such things that cannot be proven by the scientific method does not mean that they do not exist! That is the paradox that Pisces tries to teach, and that is that sometimes we have to believe even though there is no proof. That is faith, and that is trust. Faith according to Pisces is the gateway to hope!
Pisces will govern over the 5th house region this month indicating a time that is meant to focus on creative pursuits such as hobbies. This will also be a month of romance! Many who are single may just meet that special someone this Pisces period. Those already in relationships may find themselves in more romantic moods, but it can also be a time when issues with couples may be tested as well. People may very well feel a little bit sportier this month, a need to focus on exercise or sports, or simply feeling a little bit more comfortable in taking risks such as gambling. For those with children you will find that they may take up more of your time and energy this month, as there will be a greater emphasis placed on their needs. This is also a month to get noticed, express yourself with greater confidence to the world around you.
When we want to take a peak at what could be major issues in the outside world we must use what is called mundane Astrology and look at the houses in a chart for information. Neptune the ruler of Pisces will be in the 4th house region this month which can indicate issues surrounding land, property, real estate, homes and buildings will come up. Look for possible upsets in political parties this month as well, political underdogs may surprise! The weather or agriculture may also make headlines.

Compassion
By Leslie Martin, Reiki Master, RMT and Spiritual Medium @ The Divine Mine
"You are all things. Denying, rejecting, judging or hiding from any aspect of your total being creates pain and results in a lack of wholeness."
- Joy Page
The inner maze... a winding curve, slight in its way forward, direction... an unclear darkness, narrow in its view, the landscape hidden, vision obscured, an interlocking path of confusion.
The subconscious directing the play, the cast emoting a reactive yearning, acting out the unconscious, hidden twists in love, hate, apathy... leading inward, the heart exposed in its bleeding... triggering an intense life force... a survival, awakening dormant expression, leaking scattered energy in all directions, searching for light, a swell of desperate movement to the end... so many paths, blind corners, dead-ends.
Inner exhaustion... a mass confusion of internal struggle... albeit a comfortable friend, taking its seat, holding the ego in charge... the stomach a pit of stagnant mire, sleep... a discontented stirring, the uncertain madness circling... the round-a-bout slows, the spiral winding downward... a necessary purgatory for redemption, death and rebirth, reinvention, the bardo... a transition out... the learning painfully accelerated, the soul finds its silent voice... the relationship to self nurtured in its attention... the student becoming Teacher...
The labyrinth... The path of purpose, a discovery of illumination, light ever emerging, the way cleared by vision, the quest an intuitive search, guided inward to the sacred center, grounded in its stillness, a movement of life force forward, a surrender to the ultimate path, the circle complete... wholeness... a journey of initiation into the self... an inner mandala of healing, higher consciousness revealed, self-integration cleansed, an infinite center with boundaries and balance, a new birth of creation outward. Arrival to Self... the Teacher emerges...
Empowerment... a sanctuary within, an unconditional acceptance of power, unattached in service, internally disciplined, the past a clearing... opening and letting go, connection to universal love, truth in being, trust in a higher order, the self finding its way home... wholeness in beginning, relaxing into a will towards honoring, the heart beating in harmony with the universe... Love in alignment... In Being... In Faith.
"You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge."
-Eckhart Tolle

Smart Kids
By Kristyne Dahl, Certified Hypnotherapist @ The Divine Mine
Everyday more and more I see parents reaching out for help with their child(ren). It's so exciting for me to see more parents becoming aware that there is a special need for extra spiritual support. It makes me especially happy to know that more parents are getting the right information and are learning that these abilities their children have are not of the occult or supernatural. Many parents are discovering in fact just how empowering these sensitivities are for their child(ren), and are subsequently reaching out to get help.
Now a days many parents find themselves raising children who are sensitive to the spirit realm, are psychic, or those known as the Indigo children. Unfortunately often these parents are unequipped to answer their child's questions or needs with regard to helping them to hone/master these sensitivities
I decided to start "The Smart Kids" group so that more children could get the opportunity to find the answers and understanding that they are looking for. The Smart kids group began and is meant for those kids who are interested in or experiencing psychic and/or spiritual sensitivities.
I believe that the majority of children alive today are psychic or sensitive. I also believe the majority of these children are being raised by parents who are not psychic or sensitive. Please understand that this is no accident. The cause is simple, our world has already begun a major transformation and we need these kids in order to accomplish this positive change.
It's amazing for me to think more and more children are being asked to begin their mission right now. Understanding that our world needs these children it's imperative that we offer them the tools sooner rather than later. These tools are what your child needs to accomplish their mission and ease their way. Because of this I have chosen to help kids master their divine abilities so that they can confidently step up and accomplish their chosen task.
As an adult psychic I appreciate the obstacle that is presented to these young psychics, when their family doesn't have the understanding to help them. I was raised in a catholic home and was made to believe that I was very creative, not psychic. I was told in no uncertain terms that it's not safe to talk about my psychic experiences, and so I kept them to myself for well over 15 years. I am thrilled to see those old limiting beliefs are fading away.
As a young child I remember wishing there was someone out there who could fill in the blanks for me. Someone who could have guided or mentored me, someone who could have helped me to understand exactly what it is I was doing. All I wanted was to feel normal and not like an outcast.
It took me many years to learn all of those little pieces of the puzzle. I eventually taught myself how to interpret and understand divine language. And now I teach others how to do the same.
Kristyne will be facilitating a Smart Kids Discussion Group on Saturday, March 1st and March 29th. Click here for more information.

What's in a Name?
By Vikki MacKinnon, Numerologist & Owner of Got Your Number
Many of us are familiar with this question, asked by William Shakespeare four centuries ago. He went on to tell us that "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." If William had been aware of the spiritual and energetic significance of an individual's name, he would have realized that a rose by any other name would "smell" completely different.
Your name is a priceless gift, which, when "opened" enhances your self-awareness, self-esteem, and personal power. There is a vast amount of information encoded in your name, and using a variety of simple numerological calculations, you are able to arrive at three of the four major or "core" numbers in your profile, as well as numerous other aspects. In addition, you can see whether the name that you are currently using is lending support and balance to your spiritual growth and material success, or bringing an element of resistance.
The major components, or core numbers, indicated by your name include :
Your Total Expression This is the total of the numbers in your full name at birth. Are you feeling unfulfilled in your current job or relationship? Do you question whether you are achieving your highest potential? Your full name indicates the best way that you can express yourself in this lifetime, and the way you will find your greatest satisfaction and fulfillment, both in terms of your relationships and your career.
These are the qualities you came to express, to exemplify, and to live up to. You will always feel most comfortable and authentic when you are meeting the requirements of this aspect of your numerology profile.
Your Soul Urge This is a very inward vibration, taken from the combined number of the vowels in your name. The vowels shed light on your core values, and indicate your heart's desire, your greatest motivation in life. Many individuals are not aware of their soul urge, and it can create problems for them if they are living in ways that are not consistent with what their soul longs for them to experience on the Earth plane. When you are aware of the true meaning of your vowels, and discover ways to integrate it into your day to day life so that you are consistently honouring that energy, you add power to your purpose in life.
Your Persona This aspect is taken from the consonants in your name. Your consonants represent the way you respond to life in a physical way, the way in which you relate to friends, family and acquaintances, and your presentation to the outer world. They indicate the practical aspects of your personality, and what others come to expect of you. This aspect also represents, to a degree, the way you prefer to see yourself, and the best way for you to replenish your life force. In fact, some numerologists consider the consonants to be representative of your "dream self". This vibration is a very important number for us to consider when we reach turning points in our lives and we are engaged in a process of re-inventing ourselves.
In addition to the core numbers, there is significance in analyzing each name separately, according to whether it is a first, middle, or last name. The energy associated with your first name is strengthened every time you introduce yourself, or hear your name spoken in a social or workplace setting. Your middle name provides you with latent power, and your last name represents your spiritual consciousness, as well as energetic connections with your family of origin.
"Live your best life" is a slogan that has appeared in the Oprah magazine. Who could argue with this slogan? I believe that when you realize and honour the significance of your name, you are well on the way to living your best, most authentic life.
Vikki will be facilitating a Power of Your Name Workshop on Monday, March 10th. Click here for more information.
