These are specifically made by Mandy Peterson to help with blockages in the relationship or even let you know if you are with the right person. It can highlight what needs to be worked on, is the relationship worth it or does it need to be "let go" of. You can find the deck here: http://nbpsychics.com/product/the-color-of-love-divination-kit/ This particlar kit comes with three different decks and a pendulum chart for easy reading. It also has the booklet inside to help you read them.    Both divination decks were created as a professional intuitive reader looking for something that could be used to read relationships (both new relationship and those already in form). It helps to tune into a situation more clearly. Both card decks have astrological and color features. You can do a reading using the side of the deck that has writing on it (going by those definitions), or you can turn the deck over and read using the colors, symbols or astrological sign. Astrological signs can help to predict the general personality of a relationship or to help with time frames.   Color energies can be read in upright or reversed fashion as well. White upright might be purity and good intentions. Reversed it might indicate a need to make one’s motives and intentions more pure. Black upright might refer to transformation, mystery or depth. Reversed it might indicate a relationship is affected by darker qualities or the shadow self.   00:18:00Natural Born PsychicsnoColorofLove,DivinationSystem,PsychicReadings,OracleCardReadings,IntuitiveGuidanceMandy Peterson owner of Natural Born Psychics created this deck with relationships in mind.

Is it only something we think of or intend with our minds? Is it more than this?  Is there more understanding we can gain through examination?  Another common word mentioned within peoples affirmations and wishes is ABUNDANCE. While thefreedictionary.com defines abundance as “a great and plentiful amount,” “fullness to overflowing,” and “affluence; wealth,” each of these definitions is open to interpretation as well.  What is wealth to one person may be valueless to another, and vice versa. Certain words can also have a double meaning and we can be ‘abundant’ in almost anything (including disease states, disasters, adrenaline, worries, pollution, and other things). So, what are we really asking for when we wish for and want abundance? Or do we even know? Want to be part of the discussion with Belle Salisbury and Mystic Mandy? Join the chat room or call into the show.

We know the world is a little chaotic and unstable right now, whether its the political climate, disasters going on, things going on in culture and the media, etc. But, what can we do about it?  Or is there anything we can do about it.  With some people feeling the only way out is revolution and others feeling we just have to keep on keeping on with things how they are, is there any other choices we can make?

However, we have become desensitized to the tragedy and even unaware or deceived about its impact upon our oceans. Recently, TEPCO admited that the nuclear power plant has been leaking for the last two years. This isn't the only concern. A bigger concern is that there are 800+ power plants in the world all which can be impacted by disasters. Including if Japan (which experiences earthquakes quite frequently) should be hit by another tsunami. Even nuclear power plants were affected by Hurricane Sandy.  Another problem is what to do with nuclear waste. A movie called "Into Internity" discusses how a place in Finland called Onkalo will become a place of storage for nuclear waste which cannot really be disposed of. It can only be stored away till over time, which is thousands of years, which it becomes less radio toxic.  "The White Buffalo Calf Woman and Fukushima" can be read in Bellesprit Magazine at http://www.bellesprit.com/index.php/our-team/columnists-contributors/158-mandy-peterson-1/1169-calf-woman-fukushima One caller can win a copy of the book "I am the Lotus, Not the Muddy Pond". 01:00:00Natural Born Psychicsnofukushima,nuclear,humanity,environment,messageFukushima is an important lesson and message for humanity today, the same way the Gulf oil spill of 2010 was.
