I have been feeling varying degrees of betterment and relief in most aspects of my life. Even some happiness. Then I hit an impasse. Thoughts of my being stupid, foolish to be believing in Source Creator and a succession of similar thoughts came tumbling through. I started to feel my old shut-down way of being. I continued with the prayers and listening to Karl and Denny’s talks and asking Source Creator to see me through this state. I went for a walk yesterday in the local woods. A baby deer appeared from some trees. We stood still looking at each other for some minutes. I said hello and it came towards me. Eventually, it tiptoed quite near me and lay down. It seemed to be resting. I also sat down and we looked at each other and I talked to the deer. A walker with a dog came in the distance and I went to head them off from the area. When I returned the deer had gone. I saw myself in the deer. It’s newness, vulnerability, curiosity, and trustingness. Was this a message from the Divine? The impasse melted afterwards.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 11 months ago • Divinely Inspired Messengers137 views0 answers0 votesOne of the most common everyday superstitions is the idea of “beginner’s luck.” Is there such a thing? There is an article by columnist Stephanie Pappas, on nbcnews.com, titled Thirteen Common (but silly) Superstitions to Savor. In it, Pappas writes about beginner’s luck: “Like many superstitions, a belief in beginner’s luck might arise because of confirmation bias. Confirmation bias is a psychological phenomenon in which people are more likely to remember events that fit their worldview. If you believe you’re going to win because you’re a beginner, you’re more likely to remember all the times you were right—and forget the times you ended up in last place.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs200 views0 answers0 votesAnother common superstition is “don’t walk under a ladder.” Clearly, there are some practical reasons for not doing this, but Pappas writes about other historical beliefs surrounding this caveat, “One theory holds that this superstition arises from a Christian belief in the Holy Trinity: Since a ladder leaning against a wall forms a triangle, ‘breaking’ that triangle was blasphemous. Then again, another popular theory is that a fear of walking under a ladder has to do with its resemblance to a medieval gallows.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs176 views0 answers0 votes“A rabbit’s foot will bring you luck.” Pappas writes: “Talismans and amulets are a time-honored way of fending off evil; consider the crosses and garlic that are supposed to keep vampires at bay. Rabbit feet as talismans may hark back to early Celtic tribes in Britain. They may also arise from hoodoo, a form of African American folk magic and superstition that blends Native American, European and African tradition.” Can Creator tell us how this superstition came about, and if there is an actual reality to it?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs155 views0 answers0 votes“Bad luck comes in threes.” But then so does good luck as the “hat trick” in hockey celebrates. Pappas writes: “Remember confirmation bias? The belief that bad luck comes in threes is a classic example. A couple of things go wrong, and believers may start to look for the next bit of bad luck. A lost shoe might be forgotten one day, but seen as the third in a series of bad breaks the next.” What is Creator’s perspective on “bad luck comes in threes?”ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs158 views0 answers0 votesPappas writes: “According to folklore, breaking a mirror is a surefire way to doom yourself to seven years of bad luck. The superstition seems to arise from the belief that mirrors don’t just reflect your image; they hold bits of your soul. That belief led people in the old days of the American South to cover mirrors in a house when someone died, lest their soul be trapped inside.” What can Creator tell us about mirrors and the widespread belief in their hazards?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs179 views0 answers0 votes“Knock on wood.” Pappas writes, “This phrase is almost like a verbal talisman, designed to ward off bad luck after tempting fate: ‘Breaking that mirror didn’t bring me any trouble, knock on wood.’ The fixation on wood may come from old myths about good spirits in trees or from an association with the Christian cross. Similar phrases abound in multiple languages, suggesting that the desire not to upset a spiteful universe is very common.” What can Creator tell us about “knocking on wood?”ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs162 views0 answers0 votes“Cross your fingers.” Pappas writes: “Those wishing for luck will often cross one finger over another, a gesture that’s said to date back to early Christianity. The story goes that two people used to cross index fingers when making a wish, a symbol of support from a friend to the person making the wish. (Anything associated with the shape of the Christian cross was thought to be good luck.) The tradition gradually became something people could do on their own.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs146 views0 answers0 votes“Throwing salt over your shoulder.” Salt is thought to create a spiritual barrier that evil spirits cannot cross, or find difficult to cross. Many magicians and sorcerers use it to create “magic circles” with the thought that if they stay inside, they will be protected from the very demons they conjure. What can Creator tell us about the spiritual properties of salt, if any?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs198 views0 answers0 votes“Don’t step on a crack!” This is from artsandculture.google.com, an article entitled 18 Superstitions from Around the World: “As with mirrors, cracks—in the earth, on a sidewalk, or almost anywhere—have long been seen as portals to the realm of the supernatural, for both good and ill. To step on those cracks might be to invite or release unwelcome spirits into the world ready to do one harm.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs135 views0 answers0 votesSuperstitions may seem silly and innocuous at first glance, but some people worry about them a great deal. Some to the point of having genuine panic attacks if they discover they violated one. How does someone get in this state? Does subconscious mind control contribute? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs211 views0 answers0 votesEastern Europeans, it seems, have a much longer list of superstitions that concern them than those of the West. Does the fact these countries have been war-torn and decidedly less free have anything to do with this? A woman who came here from Ukraine twenty years ago, won’t use leftovers “because it’s pig food” even though she no longer has a pig, so leftovers end up in the garbage. She worries about knives left out because they foment discord when unsheathed. And anything used she purchases she leaves outside for “cleansing,” regardless of whether rain is in the forecast or not. As a result, more garbage is created when it inevitably rains. Yet there is simply no talking her out of any of these worries or practices. What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs171 views0 answers0 votesA great many superstitions seem to revolve around an obsession with evil, and warding it off, especially. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol will do more to protect you and your loved ones than slavish adherence to timeworn superstitions, even and especially if there is something to them?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Limiting Beliefs206 views0 answers0 votesIn a recent channeling on the topic of intention, Creator said: “This is a complex subject with many intricacies but quite worth exploring because you are seeing the levers that make things happen.” The answer is both exciting and daunting at the same time. Since so many people feel so powerless and helpless these days, can Creator share how exploring this topic of intention can really help them acquire the mental tools they need to both find and engage those “levers that make things happen” successfully?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs269 views0 answers0 votesPrayer is mostly thought of as a religious notion. But in fact, isn’t it really just exercising the mind to shape and launch intentions targeted at an aspect of ourselves whose charter is to fulfill those intentions? Would it be helpful to think of the divine realm and even God as extensions of our own mind? In the same way we conceive of having a subconscious that serves us, and frustrates us at times, isn’t God serving a similar role, and is every bit as real and connected to us as our own subconscious is, a part of us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs261 views0 answers0 votes
