Eli Manning, ready for his aura reading

“Those who don’t study history are doomed to repeat it.” Well, maybe that isn’t always true.

Because didn’t sports fans pay attention four years ago?

Or maybe the current lineup is my fault. I really, really don’t follow sports. I don’t even know the outcome to the famous Superbowl in 2008, when Tom Brady, of the New England Patriots, played against Eli Manning, of the New York Giants.

Despite the sporting community’s (or maybe my) pathetic lack of interest, here Eli Manning and Tom Brady come around again in Superbowl 2012.

For those of you who are better than me at following football, or knowing the rules, or admiring the strategy of America’s signature sport, or being able to watch even a single play without flinching…

Or able to read about the other big strategy related to the Superbowl, gambling strategy, without flinching….

Here is your link, Blog-Buddies, to a detailed aura reading of Tom Brady and Eli Manning, done for this blog four years ago. Quaintly, I wasn’t refering yet to “chakra databanks” or “energetic literacy” or “Stage Three Energetic Literacy.”

Aura reading from regular photographs?

Sure. You can read auras from any photographs. Even sports photographs!

Same with face reading.

Between January 30, 2008 I have published a few books about how to do such things:

• “Read People Deeper: Body Language + Face Reading + Auras” — Blog-Buddies, use that one to read both faces and auras of the New York Giants and the New England Patriots.
• “Become the Most Important Person in the Room” — This one includes techniques for born empaths to safely turn ON your gifts in order to do skilled empath merge. Included is my most popular technique for doing skilled empath merge, “Magic Picture,” where you can use photos like those shown in today’s post.
• “Magnetize Money with Energetic Literacy: 10 Secrets for Success and Prosperity in the Third Millennium” — Not much about football here, Blog-Buddies. But there are illustrations of chakra databanks and detailed discussion of how energetic literacy research led to discoveries (techniques taught in the book for “energetic workarounds”) that can help a person to become more successful. Maybe even more successful at football!
• “Use Your Power of Command for Spiritual Cleansing and Protection” — “The baby,” just published a bit more than a month ago, helps you to energetically declutter your aura and home and football field.  Although this how-to does not teach you aura reading or face reading techniques, the skill set for Spiritual Cleansing and Protection will greatly add to your accuracy at any form of aura reading, whether it be energetic literacy (such as I teach) or psychic development (a more traditional approach to aura reading taught by many great teachers).

The face reading fiesta

What about the face reading part? Of course physiognomy can add to the fun of a superbowl. Here is a link to a face reading of Eli Manning and Tom Brady, plus their coaches. The amazing quarterbacks are loaded with talent.

Any celebrity’s face can be read in a meaningful way. But I especially relish reading faces of athletes who haven’t been surgically altered in the manner of Demi Moore or other stars.

So score your own touchdown, Blog-Buddies, touching your eye gaze to the photo and scoring some wisdom about face reading data.

Susan Cain, Newly Famous Introvert

Blog-Buddy DAVE started this contest flowing with his Comment #5 at a post about writer Virginia Woolf. And then GRACE W. added another comment about author Susan Cain, making the thought of a contest become so irresistable…

Let’s do this. With our first blog contest for 2012, you get to name a creative public figure of your choice. It could be a writer, a musician, an herbalist and teacher, any public figure at all whose work shows some notable innovation or creativity.

If you are using skills of energetic literacy well enough to read photos in detail, you might want to nominate someone who seems to you to be a molecular empath as well. But this is not required. What is? Please:

1. Name your nominee.
2. Let us all know WHY you are naming the person.
3. Provide a photo link that shows the person clearly, from a front angle, and prefarably down to the waist.
4. Provide a website or article about this person and his or her professional accomplishments.
5. Final date for this contest is March 21, 2012.

More about this Molecular Empath Contest

That way we will have a good chunk of time for you’all to enter. This date also reflects the fact that later in February I will be out of town, teaching and doing sessions for about three weeks in New Mexico and California. I don’t know yet how much time I will have for blogging, and it will definitely be fun to return to big blog-o-conversations.

It will also be fascinating to find out how many of you Blog-Buddies have developed a skill level where you will be able to nominate a molecular empath. They are rare, so finding one means that you will have done something fabulous. (Unless you choose to nominate someone already publicly named as a molecular empath, which wouldn’t be bad either.)

I wonder about you’all sometimes, Blog-Buddies. I wonder how many read this blog for entertainment, how many read it in conjunction with doing personal sessions with me, how many are reading one or more of my books. How many of you who lurk actually comment? I wonder how many are empaths, how many of you have become skilled empaths and how many are just warming up to the notion.

Maybe some day I will be able to figure out how to do a survey. (Comment below if you have any ideas about how to go about that, please.) Meanwhile this contest will help us learn one piece at a time, one very fascinating piece. Because how many of the people you know have a clue about empaths, becoming a skilled empath, Empath Empowerment(R), different types of empaths, or being a molecular empath?

It’s always a joyful thing to launch a new contest. Whichever entry wins, that is the person whose aura I will read in the follow-up blog post. I’ll decide based upon the quality of the entry and, if I can, will sort among molecular empaths nominated for this contest.

Because I’m a softie, I will comment about each entry if that nominee is, or isn’t a molecular empath. But will not make other aura reading comments. Note that I will do this ONLY if the nomination meets the five Contest Entering Criteria listed above.

Let’s have us some molecular empath fun here!

Molecular empaths have... how many eyes?

In answer to FIONA’s questions as part of a thread about molecular empaths, ANONYMOUS is sharing some of her experiences as a skilled empath. And, most definitely, a molecular empath.

Anonymous was responding to Comment 35, for those of you keeping track.

As a molecular empath who is a skilled empath

As for being a molecular empath, it’s a hoot now but wasn’t always so much fun before I knew what all this was about.  Basically, I would end up making people feel awkward or create inadvertent social gaffes by telling people what I thought was true – and they would deny it. 

I didn’t realize that social exchange between most people was really not at that deep a level.  So for me to come along and talk at a deep level really stirred things up.

It is wonderful now to be able to connect to people at such a deep level – to understand and appreciate people in that way.  If and when I want to.  Other times, I am happy to have social exchanges that are fun, easy, and lighthearted.  These days, I mostly keep my empathy turned off.  But when I want to, I can crank it up and experience the full depth of perception that being a molecular empath allows me to experience.

When two molecular empaths meet

Molecular empaths affect other molecular empaths just as powerfully. The first time I met a professional colleague who is a mega- mega- molecular empath – and on Rose’s Enlightenment List, to boot – I felt a very unique whoosh inside.

I can’t say I had words for what I was experiencing. I just felt like this person had 10,000 eyes.

On the one hand, to be fully seen like that as a person was incredible, exhilarating even. On the other hand, it was a little bit frightening. Once I got to know this colleague better, I actually sent him an e-mail and joked, “Sometimes I feel like there is no place for me to hide.”

Even knowing this colleague now, I still experience the same distinctive whoosh. In fact, he can read me so well that he practically knows when things aren’t right with me before I do.

For example, he knows when I am just venting about something vs. when I am truly troubled by something. And like a great empath, he will find a way to talk to me on the phone if he is worried about me.

Even more amazing, during the time that I have known him, he has become even more skilled at putting others at ease around him. I am certain he is aware of the effect he has. Rather than using it to freak people out, he has used his perceptiveness to be helpful, funny, and kind, thus increasing his already very high level of charisma.

Imagine listening to him speak. Everybody in the room is left with the feeling, “I felt like he was talking just to me.” He knows exactly how to create the perfect tone, no matter the audience or circumstance. It’s an inspiration.

Handsome healers can run energetic ponzi schemes

A recent theme in my healing sessions has been cutting cords of attachment to previous New Age healers. Many different clients have had me remove cords of attachment to different healers; clients on different continents and healers of every description.

Often this sort of help has been requested by my long-term clients. These folks have had benefit from Energy Spirituality and they now are ready to clean out old STUFF related to previous experiences with healers that were either fulfilling or not fulfilling. Cleaning out STUFF and putting in more soulful qualities, as human beings on a path to Enlightenment — that is the definition of Enbergy Spirituality. And the put-in part includes assessing your current path, what helps and what hinders and what is mostly a habit.

These clients have come to trust me enough to ask me to research (and then remove) cords of attachment to various healers and teachers. Having done so much of this type of cord cutting recently, I thought I would wade into some controversial waters. (Who, me?) No, I am not aiming to badmouth anyone. I feel zero temptation to name some well known healers whose behavior has not been up to par. I have no axe to grind here about one type of healing versus another. No lightworkers are in competition; all are needed.

Yet, as a consumer, you may find choosing New Age practitioners to be tricky. So strap on your spiritual self-authority and let’s investigate some problems that you can easily avoid.

Not only is there a good, well trained, competent healer for everyone. The healer you need most may change over time.

New Age consumer advice based on what?

Consumer tips in this article come from a 42-year healer (i.e., active since 1970, not 42 years old). My professional skills include aura reading all the way out to Stage Three Energetic Literacy. Theories are easy to create, but I am not basing today’s recommendations merely on theory.

Specific experiences with clients leading up to my writing today’s article include:

• Reading chakra databanks in my client, present and past (by pulling out energetic holograms for researching chakra databanks).
• Reading chakra databanks in healers and spiritual teachers, channelers, mediums, psychics, and others who have helped my clients. (Research done by pulling out energetic holograms for researching chakra databanks).
• Cutting cords of attachment for clients, cords of attachment between my client and the healer, teacher, psychic, etc.
• Healing Energetic Ponzi Schemes, a.k.a. Astral-Level Ponzi Schemes.
• Identifying and helping clients to overcome Spiritual Addiction.
• Using Thrill Your Soul Aura Reading Research to investigate consequences of healing work, research that avoids making choices in the direction of an existing imbalance.

Smart New Age consumers use common sense

No need to choose your healer based just on hunches or on synchronicity. Intuitive forms of guidance are not the first, or only, criteria to use. Not when you happen to be human!

Please, use your common sense.

What does the healer claim to do? What training does that healer have? Does the system used by the healer make sense?

GLADYS’ experience isn’t unusual: She felt bad. She wanted healing. She wanted it to be a mind-body-spirit kind of healing. She felt good vibes from JOSEPHINE, the healer.

It wasn’t until she was in the initiation room that she understood what was happening — the invocation of a large animal that was supposed to join with her and give her special powers.

Unconfortable though she felt, GLADYS didn’t feel that it would be socially okay to leave.

Of course, all this was healed afterwards in a session of Energy Spirituality. But GLADYS is a brainy woman. If she had persistently asked what the heck JOSEPHINE actually did, GLADYS would have needed less cleanup afterwards.

Initiations

Please pay special attention to promises of an initiation. Very often, something significant is downloaded into you during an initiation.

Receiving an initiation does not make you special. It may make you an uninformed participant in an energetic ponzi scheme.

Receiving an initiation does not necessarily heal STUFF.

The more extravagant the claims made for your initiation, the more you would be wise to investigate what is happening here.

Many cords of attachment that I have fracilitated cutting for clients’ healers involved downloads that happened during initiations.

What NOT to ask as a consumer

It isn’t asking too much to get a detailed general explanation of what a healer or teacher does. That is different from calling or emailing a healer, telling your life story, and asking the healer, “Can you help me? How and why?”

This healer receives inquiries like this on, pretty much, a daily basis. Requesting this is NOT appropriate for a client, new or old. Sessions are for this sort of in-depth conversation. Personal sessions are by appointment and by agreement; the healer’s time and expertise are paid for, not presumed to be freebies.

Why would a responsible healer take an hour to thoughtfully read through such an email, thoughtfully consider (by reading what? the client’s aura? through an email?) and arrive at a diagnosis and treatment plan, then do an elaborate explanation? Professional healers do not provide volunteer services just because people ask them to.

Personally, I do a fair amount of volunteering. But I am the one who decides, not people who complain to me that their lives are hard or that they are desperate.

Here’s the irony, New Agers

Asking for a detailed response isn’t being a smart consumer, not really.

On the positive side, asking for this kind of detail from a new healer is a great way to separate the beginners and hobbyists and phonies from professionals. Because professionals are too busy really helping people. We don’t have time to spend hours crafting responses to such inquiries.

Personally, my practice includes a full-time scheduler who sorts through inquiries and answers questions appropriately so that I am free to do sessions. Mitch spends a great deal of time every week, helping to educate new clients so they are not expecting something that I cannot deliver. He will do a short response. And he is not the healer in this practice but a customer service-oriented person… because it’s like when selling books through my company, I have it set up with the maximum customer service that is appropriate. I believe in being able to speak with a live human being.

Still, there are limits to what is appropriate.

As a consumer, you may not find many healers or teachers who provide a lot of service for those who make inquiries. However, it is always appropriate for you to go to the healer’s website, or read the healer’s book, and learn in advance about what that person does. Then use your common sense to evaluate. Speaking of which…

Avoid mushy mind-body-spirit

Unsophisticated or unskilled practitioners mush together intuitive, psychic, energy, and healing.

Which skill sets can be used to help you?

Beware the healer or teacher who says things like, “It’s all about the energy” or “Because of my psychic powers, I can heal you.”

Once I had a student, G., who told me about what happened that she went to a popular teacher of psychic development, Mr. Joe. Once enrolled, G. wasn’t taught much about psychic development. Instead, the emphasis was on finding dangerous dark souls and how to heal them.

The healing techniques learned weren’t especially impressive, and why would they have been? How appropriate is it to advertise tuat one teacesh aura reading as a form of psychic development – or to teach other psychic-related skills — and then deliver something completely different because, “It’s all about the energy.”

A reading is not a healing. Consumers need to understand this if they want to permanently remove STUFF from their auras.

Consumer loyalty in New Age

After a successful workshop or healing session, do you notice any results? That’s the point, isn’t it?

Another consumer-smart thing is to notice how you feel about yourself. If you feel good about yourself, that’s helpful. By contrast, it’s not such a good sign if you feel something more like, “The great and mighty Wizard of Oz has granted me an audience, so I feel so honored.”

Choose a specialty, not a mush

Beginners can be drawn to mind-body-spirit, inspired by mystical ideals or fantasies. But consumers know better, whether consumers or not. Emotional healing, physical healing, spiritual healing – these are not all one big mush.

Seeking services from a mind-body-spirit practitioner, calm down and ask yourself which of these three specialties matters most to you.  Choose ONE or, at most, TWO.

Holistic healing is splendid, but that doesn’t mean that healers are generally skilled at all three specialties.

It’s clear enough with practitioners like me. I specialize in emotional and spiritual healing. I do not hang out a shingle as a physical healer.

Beware the physical healer who has a sideline of doing emotional healing, such as cutting cords of attachment. Because cutting cords is not a physical or mechanical type of healing. Professional skill requires real finesse at emotional healing.

In my experience, these are very different types of healers. Some of us notice bodies, physical aspects of life, find it really interesting. Others of us are way interested in emotions.

Maybe Leonardo da Vinci could have done both types of healing brilliantly — in his spare time — but very few humans can.

Avoid mushy New Age healer combining

So, let’s say you get it. You are working with a healer who can help you to address physical problems. Work with that practitioner to give that modality of healing a chance. When your physical condition has stabilized, then it is appropriate to go to someone for emotional healing.

Be very sparing and careful when combining services of different healers.

If emotional healing is being pursued, do not go to another emotional healer at the same time. If you have a physical problem, go to a medical professional, be that an acupuncturist, chiropractor, etc. Do not then go to a second New Age healer who is a physical practitioner, then a third.

More New Age can give you less.

One practical point about molecular empaths was not included in our last post. Just for fun, I’ll whisper it to you today.

This pssssst is of special interest for all of you clients who are molecular empaths. Not that there are loads of you, but some of you definitely are. When I have been in session with you, I have told you so. Well, what’s up with that?

 Plus I want to share with all you empaths (and non-empaths) why normally I will not name the nature of any empath gifts that you might have.

Normally I do have a strict policy as a teacher of Empath Empowerment(R). In the interest of my students, I do NOT do research about which gift(s) you have as an empath. (Although you might have me do aura reading research about somebody else’s empath gifts, or lack of them.)

Maybe you know why this policy is so important for helping you. But maybe you don’t know why I make this exception to my own rule. Because I definitely will volunteer the fact that you’re a molecular empath… if I notice it.

Why, why, why?

Unhelpful information for empaths

First off, let’s go for a general point that is useful for all you Blog-Buddies. Why it would it be significantly unhelpful for me (or anyone else) to name your gift(s) as an empath?

Knowing about your gift(s) as an empath is validating. So much about your life experience will make sense in a new way, once you understand.

• “Yes, I have been an (unskilled) Intellectual Empath. And that’s why I have had that horrid problem when fighting with my spouse, where I seem to develop amnesia about my original point of view.”
• “Yes, all along I have been an (unskilled) Environmental Empath. No wonder the recent rare sunspot activity made me feel jittery all day.”
• “Well, duh! Of course, I’m an (unskilled) Animal Empath. That is why I can walk down the street, pass Fido on a leash, and feel horribly depressed for the next several hours.”

Validating? There’s more than validation if you learn this practical information. Naming your gift(s) as an empath does NOT make you a skilled empath. It’s just the beginning.

However, you will understand a great deal more about your present, your past, and how you have suffered. You also will have hope that all your empath-related problems can leave forever, because becoming a skilled empath can do that for you. This is the reason why people take a bit of time to learn the unique skill set of becoming skilled as an empath. It does change your life forever, protecting you, helping you to be more like yourself.

Empath Empowerment can be an important step forward in your own personal path to Enlightenment. Hey, maybe having a sizeable chunk of the world’s empaths becoming skilled is a developmental step for human consciousness. Maybe all of humanity will receive a major boost forward in spiritual evolution when empaths claim their innate power and effectiveness in life.

Avoiding empath-disempowering misinterpretation

Validation is the positive version of why it is helpful to learn about your gift(s) as an empath. But let’s admit it together. There’s a problem side, too, about learning about empath gifts. Because if you don’t know accurately what the heck is going on with you, it’s all too easy to come up with weird, inaccurate interpretations that lead you nowhere. For instance:

• “When fighting with my spouse, I seem to develop amnesia about my original point of view. That spouse is a psychic vampire who is trying to attack me.”
• “Because I recently felt jittery all day, I had better go back to work with my psychotherapist and practice tightening my boundaries.”
• “When I felt so depressed after my walk last night, it’s because I have been given a Gift of Prophecy. I am a psychic empath, with important messages to pick up and tell people.”

Well, oops! Not only are these interpretations extremely inaccurate. (How do I know for sure? I made these people up! Plus their examples!)

Interpretations like these lead to a waste of time or worse. Here’s why:

• IMHO, and based on 42 years of serving clients in the New Age community, there are virtually no psychic vampires or energy vampires. There is no such thing as “psychic attack” in the lives of most human beings. Although blaming a psychic vampire can feel comforting, it is disempowering long term, a true dead end in personal empowerment.

Similarly, the labeling of people as a ”toxic personality” or “narcissist” does little to improve quality of life  long term. And labeling people has zero relevance to becoming emppowered as an empath.

• Boundary work is useful for many a seeker of improved quality of life. If you do boundary work with a psychotherapist and this helps you, who am I to argue? Certain social skills can be taught in that way. More power to you!

However, no amount of boundary work will make you a skilled empath. No amount of putting up walls, shields, invisible armor, etc. will ever make a significant difference on the level of your aura.

In fact, this particular practitioner of energetic literacy has found consistently that, ironically, big work with boundaries is counter-productive. When JOE works really hard to develop strong boundaries, what will he achieve? JOE will create an energetic structure around one or more of his chakras, a kind of energy wall (technically a big thought form).

Walls, or firm energetic boundaries, do not prevent taking on STUFF through unskilled empath merge. Neither do those energetic boundaries help an empath in any way, other than accomplishing a profoundly unhelpfu7l, distracting, mislabeled task .

JOE, for instance,  may feel different after working on his boundaries. But that feeling is about having a new artificiality to his personality and behavior, something that will keep out new friends or lovers and make it harder for him to have authentic intimacy in his relationships.

• As for being a psychic empath, that is just a mislabeling of being an empath, or psychic, or both. Instead of calling herself a “psychic empath,” GLADYS might as well refer to herself as a “Swiss-chard-based-life form.” The practical benefit would be what exactly? (Except for helping GLADYS to feel important and special.)

How empaths can be empowered instead

Here is what I recommend. Find a teacher for empaths who has a track record of helping people, a teacher whose aura or philosophy or both appeals to you at your current level of development.

Of course, I would love to be that teacher of empaths for you. But just because I was the first such teacher, in terms of publishing the first book for empaths in English, that doesn’t mean I’m alone in the field. In fact, at this date I show up pretty badly on Google, because I don’t spend time promoting myself with search engine optimization around “empath” or any other of the systems of knowledge that I use and teach.

And so, of course, I cannot comment on what other teachers do.

If you DO study the system of Empath Empowerment(R) there are three parts.

• First, you learn the appropriate names for whichever empath gift(s) you do have.
• Second, you learn how to turn your empath gift(s) OFF most of the time.
• Third, and optionally, you can learn how  to safely use a technique to turn your empath gift(s) ON for a brief period. You may know that I have developed several techniques for Skilled Empath Merge. You can find some in “Become the Most Important Person in the Room:” and even more techniques for Skilled Empath Merge in “Empowered by Empathy.”

Spiritual self-authority for empaths

Take, for example, the Empath Empowerment Workshops I will be teaching soon in Virginia (March 17-18, 2012) and New Mexico (Feb. 25-26, 2012). Teaching you, I will give you an opportunity to clearly understand the nature of each possible empath gift. Then, going within yourself, using your own self-authority, you will decide.

Same thing if you are becoming a skilled empath from one of my books. You will get to decide within yourself, using your own self-authority.

Why teach this way? Because you will use exactly the same spiritual self-authority to do parts two and three of Empath Empowerment.

Being an empath, ultimately, means that you have resources in consciousness that can work well only with techniques that involve the gentle, effortless use of your consciousness.

Social skills won’t cut it.

Visualizing walls, shields, invisible armor, etc., will not modify how your aura expands at random times, doing unskilled empath merge with people willy nilly.

Not that it is difficult or painful to become a skilled empath, not a bit!

So why do I tell molecular empaths about their gift?

If we’re in session for anything but face reading or Energy Release Regression Therapy, I will do a brief Skilled Empath Merge to learn a lot about you really quickly.

This holds true whether your session emphasizes Aura Healing and Transformation or Aura Reading Research (Use of energetic literacy to provide information about you or others).

Why tell you? Because it is both extremely rare and exciting to meet another molecular empath. You know how small the number of folks is on our Enlightenment Life List — currently 131 people, living and deceased.

Well, the number of molecular empaths is waaaay smaller. And it won’t hurt your self-authority one bit, since you have OTHER gifts as an empath. In my experience so far, every molecular empath I have identified has a whole bunch o’ empath gifts.

Will I tell you about those other empath gifts? Nope. So you’ll still get to strengthen your spiritual self-authority.

Molecular empath, Rose Rosetree, coming out of a skilled empath merge

What is a molecular empath? How can you recognize one? What can you do if you ARE one?

Today’s article is meant to be a kind of one-stop shopping trip into the world of  molecular empaths, inspired by popular demand.

What is an empath in the first place (not just a molecular empath)?

Empaths are born, not made, not developed. Empaths can be trained, however, just like any person with an innate talent.

An empath is born with at least one significant, trainable gift for directly experiencing what it is like to be another person.

That simple.

This ability (or set of abilities) shows in your aura right from you are in the womb.

And I mention this not just theoretically but because, like everything I write about in this article, I have researched it thoroughly. For decades.

Reading this article you have the benefit of my work in this field starting long before I published the first book in English for empaths, “Empowered by Empathy.” I suffered and slogged my way through developing these understandings. And I am perfectly happy to share what I have learned so that you can avoid similar slog!

How have I researched empaths who were still in the womb? I have used skills of energetic literacy to read chakra databanks in the mother, then separated out what belonged to who and read the equivalent chakra datanks in the developing child. Or, in the case of twins, children.

Although this isn’t an easy, beginner’s form of aura reading, I could certainly teach you — every single one of you Blog-Buddies — if you wanted to learn.

I could teach you how to read anyone’s aura. And I could train any of you born empaths to become Skilled Empaths, the whole point of my system of Empath Empowerment(R). However, neither I nor any other teacher can MAKE you a molecular empath, an empath with Emotional Oneness, Emotional Intuition, Physical Oneness, Physical Intuition, Animal Empath Ability, being an Environmental Empath or Mechanical Empath or Plant Empath or Crystal Empath or Spiritual Empath or Intellectual Empath.

About 1 in 20 human beings are born as an empath with at least one of these gifts. That means about 1 in 4 Highly Sensitive Persons or HSPs. Because most people, even most Highly Sensitive Persons, are NOT born as any kind of empath. Period.

A relatively small number of people are born as molecular empaths.

What makes any empath special?

Every empath has the ability, throughout life, to directly experience what it is like to be someone else. Natural empaths, a.k.a. unskilled empaths, constantly do unskilled empath merges.

In an unskilled empath merge, your aura expands to include another person’s aura. You lift out STUFF belonging to that person. It lands inside your aura.

For a very short time, that random person feels better. But no permanent healing has been done, so the person quickly regenerates the same quality of STUFF (i.e., stored emotional and/or spiritual debris on the level of auras and the subconscious mind).

Meanwhile, the unskilled empath is walking around with new STUFF, which may be with that empath for a very long period of time. Techniques of Empath Empowerment(R) are designed to prevent this happening in the first place by using consciousness in an effortless, innocent manner. There is also First Aid help for moving out STUFF, because the emerging empath might slip up from time to time and revert back to having empath gift(s) turn ON without doing a Skilled Empath Merge.

Techniques of Skilled Empath Merge are done after an empath, any kind of empath, has learned basic empath skills — keeping your empath gift(s) turned OFF as a matter of habit. Then you become eligible to safely use a dedicated technique for a minute or two, maximum, to learn from the inside what it is like to be that other person — with clarity, much greater clarity than is available by doing unskilled empath merge.

What makes a molecular empath special?

A molecular empath directly experiences other people at the finest levels of consciousness. Your individual nature has many levels of refinement, from the surface level of life all the way through to the finest, most refined levels of your personal Who You Be.

Every empath makes contact with your Who You Be, a startlingly different experience from being oneself. (Which is why it can be such an amazing, funderful experience doing Skilled Empath Merge with people directly or doing a technique with a photograph like “Darshan” in “Empowered by Empathy” or “Magic Picture” in “Read People Deeper.”

Making contact at this level, akin to physical molecules, brings a deep knowledge of Who You Be. For a skilled empath who is a molecular empath, this is very useful for facilitating healing or teaching. This definitely informs my workshops and personal sessions, for instance. Sometimes people are quite surprised at how I can get in there to find and help solve a problem that depends on a very tiny nuance of consciousness, maybe a habit.

But that’s what molecular empaths can do if they are healers or teachers. We will use our skill sets, like 12 Steps to Cut Cords of Attachment(R) and have a dimension of healing built in because that is the nature of our innate consciousness.

What is it like, being on the receiving end, with Skilled Empath Merge from a Molecular Empath?

Not everyone would notice a difference. Depends on how much you are paying attention, including the clarity of your auric field and how much energetic literacy you have developed.

Some people do notice what’s happening, however. People even notice being in the presence of a molecular empath, whether that person is skilled yet or not skilled. It feels as though the empath knows about you without your saying a word. It’s akin to what was written by Washington Post reporter Hank Stuyver when he interviewed me for a face reading article, “Who Knows What the Nose Shows?”:

“It’s like she’s known you forever… but that’s crazy, becauase you just met. Still, she has decribed youu perfectly, and not just your surface traits. Not a bit of it had anything to do with your being a Leo, your biorhythms, your palm wrinkles or numerology.”

Actually, you could use any of those skill sets, or the face reading skill set I used with Hank, to decorate the experience. But a molecular empath is doing something extra as well. There is a kind of wake-up effect because of having the consciousness of the molecular empath reach you where, usually, you are hidden from other people.

Some folks love it. Some actively feel uncomfortable. Others have a vague sense that something different is happening.

Even the molecular empath may not know what is happening, not until that natural, unskilled empath becomes a skilled empath.

Is a psychic empath the same thing as a molecular empath?

No empath has psychic powers. Not necessarily.

No empath, including a molecular empath, is necessarily left handed. Or has red hair. Or likes listening to The Grateful Dead.

So many attributes and interests are possible for a human being. Often folks mush them together, and not just in personals ads.

But of all the unfortunate combinations of attributes, one of my very least favorites is the term “psychic empath.”

Psychic development, and psychic talents, are lovely. But they have been mushed in with loads of other things.

To take a very specific example, in my system of Aura Reading Through All Your Senses(R) I list a dozen possible gifts you might have, life-long, gifts that are a basis for how you will find your greatest success with energetic literacy.

One of those gifts is “Psychic knowing.” That means you spontaneously receive information about people who are far away in space or time, whether past or future; you may have flashes of insight about events, not just people.

This gift for aura reading is not better or worse than any other gift. It is, simply, a gift for deeper perception. Everyone — and that means each of you, Blog-Buddies — is wired to have gifts of your soul that are part of your magnificence in life. Including your gifts for aura reading.

Training for you as an aura reader can go in two different directions. Choose one, at any given time in your life.

• You might choose developing energetic literacy, reading people’s auras all the way through to chakra databanks. (In which case, woo-hoo! You have found the website. Because this is definitely a skill set I teach.) (And Aura Reading Through All Your Senses(R) is a separage skill set from Empath Empowerment(R), right? That’s why I bothered to get the different trademarks, no easy task, getting a trademark with the USPTO.)
• A completely different path for aura reading is psychic development, by far the more common route in New Age circles.

You do appreciate that having a gift for psychic knowing does not mean you must pursue psychic development rather than energetic literacy, right? And a mode of study, or set of skills, does not GIVE you a gift of your soul. You appreciate that part, too, right?

So then it will be easy for you to appreciate the other point. (I hope.) Which is that when people start throwing around the term “psychic” along with “empath,” things become really, really confusing.

As someone who has worked extensively in the field of teaching aura reading, plus empath empowerment, I am quite sure that these are completely different fields. And there is no such thing as a psychic empath. Instead:

• There are skilled empaths and unskilled empaths.
• There are unskilled empaths who do random unskilled merges which bring them information that could be interpreted as “psychic” or “knowing things in a mysterious fashion” etc.
• There is psychic development, a field of study that does nothing whatsoever to make a person skilled as an empath. (Separate, different skill set.)
• There is a perceptual gift called “psychic knowing.” This has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not someone has a completely separate sort of gift for being an empath.

Whew! It’s so important to sort all this out, I think. It isn’t a matter of academic interest or fussiness over theories. I work with real-live students and clients. When they identify themselves in a way that brings confusion, or do a mishmash of seeking in a direction that has been confused in the first place, real people have real-life suffering.

Anyway, what was my reason here for bringing up the confused and confusing notion of “psychic empath”? Because I want to make very, very sure that the term “molecular empath” does not get added to all the other confusion.

You could be in the presence of someone who really is a molecular empath, feel that something woo-woo and unusual is going on, and then slap on whatever label is floating around on the Internet.

• As of today, “psychic empathy” — you know, that confused and misleading and inaccurate term we have just been discussing together — gets 1,340,000 hits.
• As of today, “molecular empath” gets 476,000 hits. And “molecular empathy” gets 789,000 hits.
• But stay tuned. Because one consistent pattern in my service is that concepts I work with become way, way more popular over the years. That’s just how I’m positioned in the work that I co-create. Just google terms like “cutting cords of attachment” or “chakra databanks” or “the power of face reading” “Cords of attachment” had fewer than 100 hits when I published my how-to book on that topic; while the other two memes had zero hits, back in the day.

To the extent that I can help it, I’m asking you Blog-Buddies to help me here. Whenever you have the chance, please discourage people from thinking that being a molecular empath has anything to do with being either psychic or a so-called “psychic empath.”

How can you recognize a molecular empath?

Seeing one walking down the street, will you recognize a molecular empath? Nope. Same with sitting in a room, or talking on the phone, with a molecular empath.

Apart from a certain internal kind of strangeness, you won’t notice a thing. Even that you might not notice.

And, for heaven’s sake, being human requires all of us to experience many internal kinds of strangeness! One reason to learn energetic literacy skills is to sort them out.

If you are seriously interested in being able to recognize who is an empath of any kind, check out this post about how to recognize an empath.

What can you do if you ARE a molecular empath?

Now there is a simple answer. Get skills as an empath.

By now, many systems are available for making life better as an empath. Empath Empowerment(R), though the first, hasn’t been the only for years.

Be aware that every teacher of empaths will somewhere define what “empath” means. Many teachers of empaths do not define being an empath with much nuance or detail. Use your consumer smarts, Blog-Buddies. It isn’t a good sign if ”empath” is defined purely emotionally or in terms of taking on pain or described as being a “psychic empath” or if being an empath is equated with being a Highly Sensitive Person.

If your teacher isn’t clear enough about what it means to be an empath in the first place, how much can you rely on that teacher’s help?

Personally, I think that becoming skilled as an empath is best done with techniques that shift consciousness in easy, effortless, well directed ways. That is what I teach, anyway. And the process of learning Empath Empowerment(R) works for ALL empath gifts, including the one called “molecular empath.”

My personal experience as a molecular empath

Now it is fun. Once upon a time it was hell, being an empath, including the molecular empath part. I am very grateful to Tantra Maat, who introduced me to the term “molecular empath” and is immensely talented at this, besides being deeply skilled. Likewise I am grateful to Bill Bauman, Ph.D., another highly skilled empath, and molecular empath, who has done many sessions of healing that helped me enormously.

I feel grateful that years ago, I spent a summer of bliss downloading a book that became “Empowered by Empathy,” a skill set that included learnings from long before I incarnated into this lifetime, and a skill set co-created with Divine help.

It took me years, 3 1/2 years, to edit “Empowered by Empathy.” Since its publication, I have continued to develop a clearer understanding about how to be a skilled empath myself and how to train others.

When people use terms like “psychic empath” I have to laugh. Because, as many of you Blog-Buddies may know, I am not a psychic. I don’t have the gift of “psychic knowing.” And despite having friends and colleagues I respect enormously who happen to be professional psychics, I have zero interest in going there.

Being a molecular empath does not mean I do a psychic or science fictioney travel deep within other people’s bodies, knowing all their secrets. Mostly it means that I have a certain transformative power, entraining with clients and students at the very deepest level, to shake them awake.

If I use a technique for skilled empath merge, I may go a bit deeper into the consciousness of the person being researched when compared to what I would do if I didn’t have that gift.

What matters, however, is that everyone has a full set of gifts. That’s you, Blog-Buddies. God has given you that, from back in womb-time, back when you drew up your life contract. You have a complete and magnificent set of gifts for deeper perception. It is perfectly aligned with your spiritual mission as a world server. It is encoded in your auric modeling, your Who You Be.

Explore that and you will move forward most rapidly on your personal path to Enlightenment.

Malcolm Gladwell, ready for his face reading

Malcolm Gladwell, an amazing New Yorkerish writer, is almost frightening in his relentless pursuit of truth. This incisive thinker and crisp prose stylist is known for Outliers, Blink, and The Tipping Point. Would he welcome a face reading article?Maybe not. What’s the closest the great Mr. Gladwell has come to reporting on face reading, the 5,000-year-old art of physiognomy?

Oops, Gladwell has interviewed Paul Ekman. A predictable choice really, as Professor Ekman is abundantly credentialled, hard-science-based in his approach… and totally dismissive of real face reading. Instead, Ekman offers extremely elegant expression reading, which he calls “face reading.” Eckman really is great at that.

Just for fun, I thought it might be enjoyable to give Gladwell a dose of medicine he is likely never to request on his own behalf.

Face Reading Tech Support

For reference, fellow face readers, you might wish to use this big face reading link to Malcolm Gladwell, thereby opening up a nice, big photographed version of his face.

For a smaller, more dependable link, here’s another face reading photo of interest, which you can copy and enlarge to see his face reading data more clearly.

All systems of physiognomy are not alike, Blog-Buddies. I will be exploring the power of face reading through my system of Face Reading Secrets(R). Currently only one of my face reading how to’s is in print, “Read People Deeper: Body Language + Face Reading + Auras.” It’s a grand way to start, since you can explore one practical category of life at a time.

In Face Reading Secrets(R), there is always a talent that goes with an item of face reading data. There is also a POTENTIAL challenge, which I will signify with a question mark. To learn if a challenge is potential or real, during the time of a photo, you Blog-Buddies might want to add the separate skill set of doing either Stage 3 Energetic Literacy with aura reading or doing a Skilled Empath Merge.

To see the difference between left and right, be sure to cross over mentally (as if shaking hands). Gladwell’s right side of his face will be on the left side of your screen.

Face Reading Mr. Gladwell

This mega-talented man has such a fascinating combination of sensitivity and strength. Let’s start with the former.

Large eyelid thickness, VERY full on the right

• How to see the face reading data:

If Malcolm Gladwell were wearing blue eyeshadow, you would see it clearly even while his eyes are open. And you would see more of it on the right eye than the left. Note: He has a double eyelid fold, which provides a context for interpretation.

• Corresponding talent:

In career, even more than his personal life, Malcolm Gladwell moves into a deep level of involvement with the person he is interviewing or writing about. He becomes “us” before snapping back to his personal point of view.

• Potential challenge?

Needing to do a big “snap” back into his objective role as a writer. He may alternate between very deep immersion in the point of view and personality of the person he interviews with moving back and pushing hard with the qualities he possesses related to strength, objectivity, etc. (This potential challenge would primarily be hard on him and his physiological system.)

Extra-full upper lip

• How to see the face reading data:

If you compare the fulness of upper and lower lips, Gladwell’s upper lip is very full in proportion to the lower one.

• Corresponding talent:

Perceptive communication, based in knowing intuitively and deeply. If you have read any of the above-mentioned books by Gladwell, and I have read them all with great admiration, it will be evident that he supplements this form of verbal sensitivity with meticulous research about objective reality.

• Potential challenge?

Telling folks more inside information than they are willing to hear? This challenge is unlikely with Gladwell. Among other reasons, he has such a preponderance of forceful, strength related facial quirks, a.k.a., extreme talents. (Just keep reading.)

Dramatically, VERY huge eyebrow density on the right

• How to see the face reading data:

It’s worth opening up one of the face reading photo links supplied in this post, then expanding it, just to get the full impact of a rare asymmetry on Gladwell’s eyebrows. The left one has exceptionally sparse density of hair, while the right one — the face reading data being described here — is power packed, way fuller with dense hair than average.

• Corresponding talent:

In career, not personal life, possessing an exceptional capacity to pay attention to details when conducting an inquiry. You’ll meet few people who are more meticulous in gathering and organizing relevant facts.

• Potential challenge?

Overwhelm when researching and categorizing? Not knowing when to stop research and move over to conclusions?

Malcolm Gladwell’s relatively prolific output suggests that, in recent years anyway, he has managed to overcome this challenge. Really, his signature style in nonfiction is to find patterns and conceptualize reasons that reframe details in a most fascinating light.

VERY angled chin bottom

• How to see the face reading data:

Behold the shape at the bottom of Malcolm Gladwell’s chin. It is like a triangle. Note that truly angled chin bottoms are extremely rare.

• Corresponding talent:

Life choices, writing choices, based on staying in control. This talent helps Gladwell in his career to heft the sizeable amounts of information he collects as a nonfiction writer and wrest those details into a larger context that he creates.

• Potential challenge?

In his personal life, having this strong a need to control — could it create relationship difficulties? Can there be true sharing of power?

Macho knob

• How to see the face reading data:

Like a doorknob, this is a shape on Malcolm Gladwell’s chin. This item of face reading data is created by muscle, and new physiognomists can be surprised to discover that this face reading data can change enormously over the years.

Of course, face readers discover loads of significant changes to the physical face. This isn’t necessarily about genetics or heredity but free will. And if you survey different systems of physiognomy, I doubt you will find anyone in this field who places stronger evidence on how faces change over time. (Blog-Buddies, you may know that one of my out-of-print books, currently, is “Wrinkles Are God’s Makeup,” a how-to that I researched with near Malcolm Gladwellian intensity, taking 9 1/2 years to write and publish it. Currently a small number of copies can still be purchased by workshop students for workshops held here in Sterling….)

• Corresponding talent:

Forceful use of rage to muscle Malcolm’s way through challenges and obstacles.

• Potential challenge?

Being more forceful than he knows, causing him to sometimes shoot ants with cannons?

VERY muscular jaws

• How to see the face reading data:

Look past the VERY wide jaws — a separate face reading characteristic with its own fascination but, really, I have to end today’s blog post somewhere.

It’s worth using one of the above face reading photo links in order to open and enlarge this picture just to see this unusual characteristic: Big, muscular padding. Akin to flexed biceps only these are, of course, at the sides of his face rather than the length of his arms. And as even novices to physiognomy are aware, these face parts aren’t called “arms,” regardless of their degree of muscular development.

• Corresponding talent:

Can this man push himself? Heroically. The determination is akin to a bodybuilder’s strength, only applied internally.

Expect great things from this man.

Oh, wait, he has already done great things. Okay, expect more great things from this man. And not because face reading involves fortunetelling. As you Blog-Buddies know, I am not a psychic, and I work in the realms of the present, applying skills of literacy to what shows at the time — such as when Gladwell posed for this particular photograph.

Potential challenge?

Not knowing the force of his rage? Being more effective (when angry) than he knows?

Exceptional determination. Force of will akin to a body builder’s but applied mentally and/or in action.

What, you thought a man can effortlessly become one of the very top nonfiction writers in English, or easily rise to the top of the heap at the fabled “New Yorker” magazine?

Potential challenge?

Being harsh with himself? Forcing himself to accomplish ever more, more, more?

Sure hope that isn’t so. I am so in like with Malcolm Gladwell, admiring him so much, and wishing his face (and the rest of him) every happiness.

Conclusion, reading Malcolm Gladwell’s face

Some of you at this blog are professional writers like me and can, therefore, share in admiration of this master craftsman.

Others of you Blog-Buddies have simply read one or more of his magnificent bestsellers.

Either way, Malcolm Gladwell is such a standout. If we knighted our superstar writers in America, he would undoubtedly be called “Sir Malcolm Gladwell” by now.

But even if you have never read a word yet of Gladwell’s impeccable prose, you can admire him through this face reading. What a combination, within one very human and male nervous system, of sensitivity, grace, and finesse… vying with rigor and power.

Each face, to me, shows such perfection. But this physiognomist must confess: I have read this particular face with more than the usual relish. Reading Malcolm Gladwell’s face doesn’t explain his talent — only he is responsible for that. Instead, physiognomy can help all of us to savor this truly amazing man.

Incidentally, Gladwell has a blog which you might enjoy sampling from this Face Readee’s Link.



Tiger of a Tycoon, Ratan Tata, posing with his aura

A tiger of a tycoon, that’s Ratan Tata. He, along with Blog-Buddy NADINE, is the winner of last year’s Aura Reading Contest. What inspiration for a prosperous new year, to read his aura using the Magnetize Money Profile!

Here is how NADINE described him in Comment 20, with her contest entry: 

Ratan Tata. I first heard about him during a class report and was kind of fascinated when a picture of him was shown. He reminds me of a tiger.

He started from the bottom and seems to have a knack for turning companies around. Some of his earlier (successful) efforts were largely thwarted and offset by external events but he went on to head the Tata Group of companies which have made big acquisitions such as Tetly, Jaguar Land Rover and Corus. I’m really curious how he (and people like him) does it.

As usual, with aura reading research, you can learn about chakra databanks and Stage Three Energetic Literacy from other posts here at this blog. Or start reading auras in detail from photos on your own. One of my how-to’s contains TWO easy-to-learn techniques for reading auras from photographs, “Read People Deeper: Body Language + Face Reading + Auras.”

And, of course, you can learn way more about Magnetize Money Profiles in “Magnetize Money with Energetic Literacy: 10 Secrets for Success and Prosperity in the Third Millennium.”

Here is an aura reading link to the photo I have used for today’s Magnetize Money Profile of Ratan Tata. And here is a more dependable Ratan Tata photo link.

1. Aura Reading Root Chakra Databank: Earning Money

95 miles. Ratan Tata has an unusual gift for connecting to collective consciousness for one group of people at a time, anticipating trends and understanding what people will spend money to buy.

I am also struck by an uncommonly grounded quality here. Mr. Tata is exceptionally down to earth.

2. Aura Reading Root Chakra Databank: Saving Money

29 miles. Really extraordinary to me! Ratan Tata has a group-helping take on financial prosperity. Strongly motivated to save, this isn’t about his personal survival. Or ego. Or other common, reasonable, expectable human motivations.

This man is such a team player, and he saves money as a practical act of support for his team.

A great toughness is evident here, as well. Ratan Tata is a team player for his team. Not for opposing teams.

This isn’t a man I would expect to do the financial equivalent of “Everyone, let’s hold hands around the campfire and sing, ‘Kumbaya.’ And now, Oprah-style, I’d like to give each and every one of you some extra cash.”

3. Aura Reading Root Chakra Databank: Personality at Work

This chakra databank is very flexible, even in size. Evidently, Ratan Tata starts off an encounter with having this root chakra databank halfway filling the room. If needed, this chakra databank will grow larger and larger, filling the room and beyond.

What’s the practical point about this chakra databank? Ratan Tata shows great strength in reserve.

With this depth of resourcefulness as a human personality, Ratan Tata is focused, comfortable with being powerful, and willing to work with others. There is a remarkable presumption of respect for other people. Folks are assumed valuable and important unless they prove themselves lacking.  (Maybe Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich could hire him for coaching lessons on this version of being extremely rich.)

Close to ready for the Enlightenment Life List

There are a few relatively minor problems that prevent Ratan Tata from being put onto my Enlightenment Life List. He really seems close to me.

One growth area that remains is emotional, including some pervasive loneliness and sorrow in some heart chakra databanks. Also, and this gave me quite a chuckle to liven up today’s aura reading research, Ratan Tata does appear to have a super-sized temper. NADINE, I agree with you here about the tiger aspect!

He isn’t a randomly angry person. But, wow! When he gets annoyed, there is a tiger-like rage and forcefulness.

This potential to explode with rage, after giving due warning, first caught my attention in the “Personality at Work” chakra databank. And just keep reading, because there is definitely more of the same with other chakra databanks belonging to Tata the Tiger.

4. Aura Reading Root Chakra Databank: Personality PROJECTED at Work

2 feet. Quiet. “I’m just an older executive, nobody to fear. I do have standards. I do have my dignity. But relax around me, by all means.”

Of course, if that anger is aroused, forget about that personality projection. Head for the hills!

5. Aura Reading Solar Plexus Chakra Databank: Self-Confidence at Work

Expandable again, when he’s alone this chakra databank goes all the way out to the stars. However, when with other people, modesty prevails. Ratan Tata seems self-contained, with nothing to prove.

If tested, he’ll allow more of the inner certainty to show. This is a wonderfully indomitable man, with a strong and authentic spiritual connection. Inwardly aware of co-creating with the Divine, Ratan Tata feels confident without having to try to feel that way.

Note that confidence isn’t a spiritual or religious certainty based on belief, like a televised speech I saw recently where presidential candidate Rick Perry compared himself to Moses. Or Rick Santorum’s absolute certainty about reproductive mysteries.

6. Aura Reading Solar Plexus Chakra Databank: Handling Conflict at Work

Out to the moon, when activated. Yet the habitually modest size of this chakra databank matches its quality, strength in reserve. When Ratan Tata feels annoyed, however, watch out.

Highly effective, Tata the Tiger uses actions, not threats. He will use minimum force, then escalate as needed.

Let’s get clear about context: Ratan’s personal ego is secure enough so that minor conflicts barely register. For him, conflict (such as would require handling) is not on the order of, “Do you think I look fat today?” or “When you mentioned my latest business venture, you didn’t sound that respectful in your tone of voice. So you hurt my feelings.” Instead, conflict for him would be more like, “Mr. Tata, we have documented evidence that people in the XYZ factory are stealing from the warehouse.”

Personally, I love this decisive responsiveness to conflict. Even when a response is warranted, he isn’t violent or ruthless. Nor does Ratan Tata seem to enjoy destruction for its own sake. Yet he has no qualms about vigorously protecting and defending.

7. Aura Reading Heart Chakra Databank: Emotional Intelligence at Work

How funny is this? Lately our big active thread at this blog has been around molecular empaths. Well, let’s add Ratan Tata to this list!

It didn’t show in his other chakra databanks. Of course, I wasn’t looking for anything like this, either. A post about molecular empaths is different from a Magnetize Money Profile. Until today.

Soon as I moved into the vicinity of Ratan Tata’s heart chakra databanks, wham! Or, I guess, the more appropriate expletive would be “Ooze of molecular empath, plus sparkles”!

Ratan Tata doesn’t necessarily spend a lot of time or energy on assessing emotions of other people. When he does, however, “Ooze of molecular empath, plus sparkles”!

He doesn’t just use Standard Issue Human Emotional Intelligence, something possessed by all sentient humans who aren’t on drugs, etc. Instead, Ratan Tata automatically does a casual switch-on that goes all the way to the level of the person’s molecules. Ratan knows instantly, doing his own kind of spontaneous empath merge.

What’s also fascinating about Ratan Tata as an empath? With no help at learning Empath Empowerment(R) skills from the likes of Rose Rosetree, he manages just fine.

What is his version of being a skilled empath?

As evident from this heart chakra databank, Ratan Tata’s secret is quite simple. He pays zero attention to other individuals’ subjective lives most of the time. When he does make the conscious choice to be interested, however, his big empath gift switches ON. After downloading the information, immediately, Ratan Tata’s empath gift switches OFF. Then he goes back to his usual experience, being the powerhouse tycoon.

So size-wise this heart chakra databank is mostly 25 feet. But during one of his Skilled Empath Merges as a molecular empath, Ratan Tata fills the entire room. And I don’t consider it an overstatement to say that he merges in consciousness at a Divine level. This is what gives him access to the tiniest particles of the other person’s nature, as well as anything else inbetween… all the way out to the surface of life, where emotional intelligence deciphers physical expression and body language.

It would be quite impossible for a person to lie in his presence. (With, of course, the exception of a psychopath.)

Blog-Buddies, this is a highly educational bit of research for me. Like many of you, I am continuing to learn about empaths. Personally, I wonder if there is a threshhold of consciousness beyond which molecular empaths all have that experience of Divinely ONE, unified consciousness from within.

Won’t that be fun for us molecular empaths to research over time.

8. Aura Reading Throat Chakra Databank: Communication at Work

20 feet, resting. But could on provocation fill the room or go out as far as needed to dominate a conversation.

Ratan Tata makes great use of his innate feminine energy, balancing his masculine energy in a way that makes him genuinely accessible.

Talking to others, he doesn’t come across as a big ego. Not like a mega-rich tycoon who makes people feel trivial. No, Ratan Tata is evidently a fabulous listener.

He can compromise, too.

And he spontaneously does all this with a tough-minded integrity, nobody’s fool and nobody’s bully.

9. Aura Reading Third Eye Chakra Databank: Awareness of Your Human Life

Miles and miles, expanding when he stops to contemplate himself.

Look out Rhonda Byrne and other teachers of “The Secret” who preach more about “being spiritual” than they may actually do. (Many such people are profiled in “Magnetize Money with Energetic Literacy.”  Just for fun, Blog-Buddies, here is a link to a Magnetize Money Profile of Andrew Carnegie that I wrote as part of gathering research for the how-to book.)

In refreshing contrast, Ratan Tata  has superb objective-subjective balance. Plus his sense of self is deliciously semi-merged with the Divine.

10. Aura Reading Third Eye Chakra Databank: Connection to Spiritual Source

Out to the stars. Tough as this man looks. Rough as his voice may be, during conflict-laden conversation, this is a man in love. He is God’s devotee. His life is about service, exploration, and a connection that grows only dearer with each passing day.

Conclusion of Ratan Tata’s Magnetize Money Profile

There is one last point worth adding, I think, to today’s aura reading research. Over the past years, I have begun to write  and talk about my big dream. It is to join with other lightworkers all over the world (whatever they call themselves, whatever their professional skills) in order to help millions of householders gain spiritual Enlightenment.

Today’s reading was done just because NADINE submitted a well researched, fascinating contest entry. Who knew that this mega-successful man’s aura would be relevant to that completely different thread at this blog.

Nobody needs to be an empath — let alone a molecular empath — in order to become spiritually Enlightened.  Rather, we evolve here as human beings, based on who we are.

• When STUFF is gone;
• When all chakra databanks function properly, normally;
• When we subjectively experience ourselves to be permanently connected to God;
• When this connection is authentic enough to show all the way down to the chakra databanks (rather than the Rick Santorum or Rick Perry versions of zealotry, accompanied by pitiful showings at relevant chakra databanks),

Voila! That person has crossed a certain threshhold in spiritual evolution, Enlightenment.

However, turns out, Ratan Tata does happen to be a molecular empath. And well on his way to becoming Enlightened. And definitely a householder.

Even before being quite there, fully Enlightened, a person can enjoy such a magnificent, graced state of consciousness. What an inspiration, in so many ways, that Ratan Tata! Whatever good he does in the world, bolstered by talent and success, he blesses everyone who gets to experience his remarkable auric modeling.

Sure he’s got quite a temper. But the man is also a walking lighthouse.
