READING LIFE DEEPER Face Readings and Aura Readings of People in the News October 2007, Issue 62
by ROSE ROSETREE
In this issue:
ANNOUNCING MY NEWEST BOOK "cUT CORDS OF ATTACHMENT" What does it mean, cutting cords? It's a kind of surgery on the level of auras. No blood, no infections, no nausea for the squeamish -- nonetheless, the healing can be profound. Cords are energetic structures between two people, altogether different from the spiritual ties of unconditional love, which are real, too. Only spiritual ties aren't toxic. Cords contain flows of energy that throw a person off-kilter, yet the damage mostly happens subconsciously. Cutting a cord therefore brings profound change in the direction of balance. When a cord is cut properly, these benefits are permanent. Otherwise, every single cord that forms between you and others will stay with you until your dying day, even if the cordee (the person at the other end) has "died" long ago. Cut Cords of Attachment is the first how-to book on the topic, in English, anyway. Stories in the first chapter help me to explain why the skill can't be properly taught in two pages, as Doreen Virtue attempted to do in one of her books. She is hardly the only one with good intentions about cutting cords; the Internet is rife with sweet meditations that, supposedly, will cut them. In my book's first chapter, "The Need for Skill," I summarize problems that result from trying to cut cords without in-depth knowledge.
FIVE OF THE BEST STORIES: STORY #1 No book I have written contains more stories. (Okay, my novel for empaths), The Roar of the Huntids. But in the past, my nonfiction has simply combined WHYs and HOWs; theoretical concepts followed by practical steps. With Cut Cords of Attachment, in addition to the WHYs and the HOWs, I also wanted to share loads of stories as well -- and not just because I've accumulated such amazing tales, cutting cords for clients over the past 20 years. These stories bring to life my system of 12 Steps to Cut Cords of Attachment®. In this issue of "Reading Life Deeper" I will present five of my favorite stories, interspersed with other short articles. What else do you need to know, by way of introduction? Validation is really an important aspect of cutting cords. You know this if you have had any of my personal sessions of Energy Spirituality. After cutting a cord, I describe for my clients a series of "cord items" that used to repeat within you 24/7. Many of the stories here will include these numbered cord items. But first, I'd like to start with a method-related tale. I hope, as you read these stories, you will not just be entertained, but you will also feel inspired to become skilled. STORY 1: The Big QuestionOnce a TV reporter interviewed me for a couple of hours. She’d driven down from Baltimore with a camera guy. Ultimately, only six minutes from our interview would be used on the air. I knew that. When she finished, I knew which part of our interview would definitely make the cut. Sure enough it later appeared on Sweeps Week. How could I tell which particular question was so very important? The reporter asked it three times. First time, she had the cameraman film a close-up of her asking. Second time, he took a close-up of me. Third came a long shot to establish that we were talking together about this urgent matter. Three times, then, the pretty young reporter leaned towards me confidingly and said, with thinly veiled condescension: “Rose, we know you think you read auras. You say that you get information and it helps people. You seem satisfied with what you do. But tell me, don’t people sometimes ask you, ‘ARE YOU CRAZY?’” Lucky me, I got to answer this very shrewd question three times in a row. I told her, “That very fear of being crazy is what keeps so many people from reading auras in the first place.” Consider yourself warned. Do you have fears about your sanity or doubt your spiritual worthiness? All kinds of nasty stuff deep within may come up when you start reading auras. What’s the fastest way to get through it? Simple. Ignore fears and doubts. Keep on reading auras. When that blockage is gone, it will go for good. What a blessing to have those fears finally evaporate! Even for the sake of the rest of your life, you’d want to read auras. NEWLY DESIGNED INTENSIVE
Scheduled to coincide with the release of my latest book Cut Cords of Attachment, this intensive will take place in Sterling, Virginia from Friday, October 5 through Sunday, October 7. Like all my intensives, it will include seven group meetings, gaining momentum as it goes. By the end, we will have a group of people with in-depth and powerful skills for cutting cords. True, I have already been teaching intensives on this topic since 2004. (Some of my students have done so well, they have hung out their shingles as professional healers.) Still, to prepare for this newest version, I have redesigned the course to be better than ever. Compared to simply reading the book, the intensive will help you to move forward by half a year or longer. Really, in-person learning is best because I can fine-tune your learning process, plus the group energy at our Intensives is lovely, bringing a great momentum, accelerating your pace of growth, and introducing you to a new group of friends. Each Intensive that I offer is based on leading-edge techniques related to my books, skill sets you won't gain elsewhere. The student-teacher ratio is kept low, guaranteeing loads of personal attention for every participant. So spaces can fill up fast. To make your reservation or ask questions, contact Julie Schroedl, Intensive Coordinator, by emailing her at JulieSchroedl@msn.com. She can also be reached at 1-540-310-4896 -- but you'll get a faster reply with email. STORY #2: ruined FOR LOVE? Got love? Got history? Then you may be a great candidate for cutting cords of attachment to make your life better. Relationships from your distant past could be cluttering up your sex life right now. After her love affair with Jack, Dolores had zero libido. Although she knew she wanted to cut her cord of attachment to him, Dolores had no idea why getting over him had been so difficult. Using Questioning, here is the pattern of dialogue that I found when doing Step 9: 1. Dolores: Wow! When I’m with this man, I seem so forceful. Loads of my emotions come out. 2. Jack: She expresses for me. I’m not in touch with a lot of my emotions. (After follow-up questioning: We have an energy hook-up through this cord where some of my more unpleasant, stuck emotions go directly into her. Then she acts really angry or jealous.) 3. Dolores: My super-expressiveness alternates with a complete turnoff of my feelings, especially if Jack has been badgering me. 4. Jack: Often I’m remote, inaccessible. (After follow-up questioning: This is because I want women to indulge me, the way my Mom did when I was growing up.) 5. Dolores: Being in love is so confusing. Sometimes Jack acts close. Other times he’s completely inaccessible. Randomness is driving me nuts. 6. Dolores: I wish I could be like him, so confident about how to be in a relationship. 7. Jack: Gloating. I am quite the expert about psychology. All my therapy has made me psychologically super-healthy. 8. Jack: Poor Dolores. She knows nothing. She’s lucky that I can show her how to be in touch with feelings. 9. Dolores: I’m not like him, so I must be defective. After I read these Cord Items to Dolores, she laughed. Turned out that Jack had bragged a lot about his years of therapy. Then she turned serious. “Do you suppose maybe I’m not defective, after all? And maybe Jack wasn’t as perfect as he thought?” Consciously, Dolores had let Jack go. But subconsciously that cord of attachment kept his presence alive. Now she could put the relationship into perspective. Dolores told me, “For the first time since breaking up with Jack, I feel that I might have something worthwhile to offer a man.” NEW BLOG HELPS YOU INTERACT A new blog has entered the blogosphere. Intrepidly, into the depths it goes, just as you would expect with a name like Deeper Perception Made Practical. On the surface, my blog may not have had much impact yet, considering there are how many, only a zillion blogs out there? Many of my students have told me, "I don't visit blogs at all," and the blogosphere can seem intimidating… or trivial. (More on that later in this zine.) But I do invite you to take a peek. It was designed to create community and give people a chance to ask questions, react, and even Guest Post. And, unlike some blogs, interacting is easy. You don't have to waste time signing up. No need to create one more of those memory-slippery User IDs. Just sail on in and comment at will. (If you should have technical problems with doing this, email me at rose@rose-rosetree.com and I'll give you an assist. Don't be embarrassed, because nobody could start out klutzier at this Internet stuff than me.) STORY #3: EXACTLY WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN Our next book excerpt relates to this question: How do you locate a cord of attachment? Should my book contain a neat little chart, where you match a problem to a cord spot? No way, and I explain why. As one of the 12 Steps to Cut Cords of Attachment®, you do learn how to correctly locate a cord. And it isn't by guessing. Marian had traveled for hours to attend our session. She burst into the room and blurted out her intention. “I want to express myself better when I’m with people.” Where did I locate the cord of attachment? If you were to guess at this point in my story, you might think, "Self-expression is at the throat chakra. So that's where Rose is going to find a big, fat cord of attachment." Nope! Doing the Before Picture, I asked Marian to describe how she felt emotionally. She said, “Dark and cold, like an empty hole in there. I’ve had that my whole life.” We wound up cutting the cord of attachment to Marian’s mother at the heart chakra. This released a hideous pattern, a recurring nightmare that had been stuck in Marian’s aura since childhood: No hugs, no love, not even being allowed to cry. In Step 10, I asked Marian for her reaction to what I’d found in the cord. Sorrowfully, she confirmed the unusual harshness of her upbringing. If caught crying, she was punished. Bad enough that she often cried herself to sleep, but Marian also had to hide the tears. More data from the cord revealed that Marian's mother kept her cruelty a secret. So nobody intervened to stop the abuse. As children will, Marian blamed herself, feeling that she deserved nothing better. There is always a difference between stand-alone psychological insight and the conversations you'll have during Steps 10-12, after a cord has been removed. At her After Picture, Marian was asked to move back into her heart space and describe what she felt. “What about that hole in your heart?” I asked gently. “Gone,” she said, clearly amazed. Me? I wasn’t quite so surprised. IS THERE INTELLIGENT LIFE IN THE BLOGOSPHERE? Except for a brief fling with Daily Kos, I never read blogs until I actually started blogging. Then I started sampling them, seeking kindred spirits. What I've found has often shocked me. I'll let one of my friends describe the problem. She was commenting on my doleful experience with a blog called "Thursday 13," a fine idea that suffers from the dumbed-out standards of many blogs: "I know Thursday Thirteen, though I never got on their blogroll. The only person's TT I read regularly is Lisa Wechtenheiser's at www.Snarkypants.com. Many of the other TT's are so... boring. Like "The Thirteen Items on My Desk At Work" - I literally think that was someone's TT one week, and it wasn't unique or special stuff either, like an architect's desk. It was 'stapler, scissors, pen, pencil, coffee cup,' etc. I got nothing from reading that, except wasting time and a minor headache." Another friend described her blog-life like this: "When blogs first came along, I checked them out. Over and over, they were hopeless, hapless, lifeless gatherings of dummies . People who couldn't spell. People who wouldn't punctuate. Bigots. Idiots. People who cannot think. Disgusting creatures like Michael Savage. They were never, in my experience, intelligent, thoughtful exchanges of ideas." Sigh! Blogging still has great possibility for interaction. So please don't give up on the potentials of blogging, not yet. Visit Deeper Perception Made Practical and invite more intelligent life, people whom YOU would like to visit with online who care about reading life deeper. (Invite people who want to do that any way that works for them, not necessarily using the techniques in my books.) Blog boldly there: Post comments and guest posts about your experiences and questions about reading life deeper. Silly or not, I have a dream about online community that won't quit. And I would love for you to become a part of it. STORY #4: PSYCHIC HEALING WITH HOOKS Some so-called "spiritual initiations" come with a hidden price tag. I have had several clients with a problem similar to the one described here. If you shock easily, don't read this next story from Cut Cords of Attachment. Roger had done many sessions with me over the years. Psychologically he was in great shape, and it was always a treat to spiff up his already magnificent aura. This time, however, Roger looked worried in a way that I’d never seen before. His story: “I just came back from a two-week seminar with a famous psychic healer, Zachary. During the seminar I felt great, but since coming home I’ve had the sense that something was wrong. Could you see if I have a cord of attachment to him?” The answer was a resounding "Yes." Here’s what I found, after removing the cord at Roger’s belly chakra: 1. The Healer: You must keep learning more from me. 2. Roger: Yes, I must keep learning more from you. 3. The Healer: To do my healing, I work with a group of astral-level beings, the Committee. Once I initiate you, I form an energetic linkage between you and the Committee. They feed off your aura for the rest of your life. In return for receiving energy from my students and patients, the Committee does healings for me. Scary, I know. Many forms of healing come with strings attached. It isn’t just psychic healers, either. Good old M.D.’s can attach ego hooks, too. Choosing any healer, always ask your gut "Where she is coming from?" Sometimes you will feel the need to inwardly ask some follow-up questions: Is the healing done selflessly or from ego? Does the healer give out her own energy? If she teams up with help, where does that help come from? In Step 2, you learned to make an Energy Sandwich by teaming up with Divine Beings. Not everyone has the training (or inclination), to work this way. Some of the scariest auras I’ve met belong to preachers or healers who team up with low-level astral beings. Studying with his renowned teacher, Roger never considered the possibility that astral strings would be attached. During Step 10 of our session, Roger told me that, as soon as he returned home from studying with Zachary, he decided to end the relationship. But that hadn’t felt sufficient. With the cord gone, Roger finally felt clear of Zachary's influence. QUIZ OF THE MONTH One benefit of blogging is that I found a cool website for designing quizzes with multiple choice, snazzy format and other bells, whistles. You even get a numerical score at the end. Participation is confidential, so don't be put off by the first two questions about demographics. (I think they have to do with legal requirements not to let under 18's participate.) At my blog, I'm so into quizzing that I may post more than one a month. The main reason is my discovery that quizzes can be really, really funny. And now, without further preamble, Rose's quiz for October: Got power? For this face reading quiz, click here: Read My (Upper) Cheeks.
On a radio interview last night, I was asked about "the biggest miracle you have ever had, cutting cords of attachment." Oops, I really clammed up, then managed to say something…. But it wasn't very impressive. Really, so many huge healing experiences result from this skill set. And I don't think of them as "miracles" because isn't healing supposed to heal? Cutting cords is just a manageable skill set that helps a person to heal powerfully. The following story is an example of a healing that produced big results. To you, does it seem like a miracle or just a typical story of what can happen from cutting cords of attachment? Often the victim of a rape feels trapped in a nightmare. She’s screaming as hard as she can, yet nobody hears, not even (apparently) God. Julia’s story was typical. Once her session started, she quickly got to the point. “I’m here to cut the cord of attachment to my father. He abused me.” Sure enough, the cord connected right between her legs. Because the memories were so painful, Julia was asked to simply to nod yes or shaker her head no when I read out the Dialogue Box, signaling whether she could relate to each item. Here’s the sequence I reported, followed by her response. 1. Julia: Screaming in terror, yet she can’t make a sound. It’s like being frozen and unable to move. Inside she’s yelling, “Stop doing that to me.” YES. 2. Father: He continues using her body as if it is an object. His sexual energy moves through and around her. YES. 3. Julia: I recognize this sexual feeling. I don’t want to feel it. YES 4. Father: He’s satisfied. Immediately, he puts what has happened into denial. To him, it’s as if nothing has happened at all. YES. 5. Julia: The emotional pain is crushing. She cries out for help, but nobody helps her. YES. 6. Father: Shut up. You’re making a big deal out of nothing. YES. 7. Julia: I feel abandoned and helpless. I don’t want to be here on earth. YES. 8. Julia: The only thing that keeps me going is my connection to God. I am able to connect extra strongly to God. I can do this because I must. YES. Starting with Step 10 of cutting cords of attachment, Julia cried hard for the rest of her session. Despite her tears, she was listening acutely. It made sense to her when I pointed out logical consequences of having the cord removed. Yes, in the future anxiety could diminish. She might finally be able to enjoy sex with a man. She might stop feeling abandoned. Also, Julia’s longstanding desire to leave earth could abate. “Yes,” she told me. “For most of my life I have wanted to kill myself.” Wow! I explained that when a cord of attachment keeps sending its poison into your aura, usually the best you can do is to cope with the negative feelings. Nothing will make those feelings stop so long as the cord replays them 24/7 within your aura. But now, energetically, things can be different. TAKE JOY How often do you hear people say "Goodbye" by using the expression "Take care?" Now, how many people do you know who need even more cares? Hey, why not just tell them, "Have a pleasant ulcer"? Here's what I say instead. "Take joy!" What do you choose to say? ZINE ARCHIVE Have you missed a recent issue of "Reading Life Deeper"?
