As I discussed in the first lesson, being able to let your body relax and not think about the kids, dog, dinner or what you need to do later is “key “. You need to train your brain to just focus on your relaxation. This process does several things:

1. Lowers the heart rate

2. Tapers off anxiety

3. Allows you to start to control your body and learn how to discipline your mind to create.

4. You will now start the process to see things. Images, colors, numbers and get messages from your Guides. You may even see your Guardian Angel, a deceased family member and your Spirit        Guide. There is no limit to what you can do.

5. The most important benefit of creative visualization is having control. You can now start to even heal your body if you so desire. I don’t need Novocaine when I go to the dentist. That’s because I have had years of experience with meditation.

6. When you have completed step one of the meditation process, have brought in the White and Green light and opened your chakras, just let yourself listen to the music and go.

If you find that you need a Guided Meditation to get you started, go up on Amazon.com and put “Cheri Mancuso” and “White Light” in the search window  on Amazon. You can purchase my White Light CD there for a nominal fee. My Guided Meditation will help you to begin your Creative Visualization journey.

If you don’t want to purchase a CD then just listen to any music that’s relaxing and try to let yourself go. Write down or record what you experienced during the journey and date your information. This way you can monitor your progress.

You can also contact me through this website if you have any questions or want additional guidance with my “Special” classes. our Next session will be on  Affirmations to the Universe and Manifesting What You Desire in Life and the ” Don’t’s” of Meditation and what to do if you can’t sit still or you can’t focus.

Creative Visualization begins with Meditation and ends in Manifestation.

You first need to get into a relaxing mood while either sitting in a reclining chair or lying on a bed or couch. It’s important that you are comfortable. I always like to set the mood  with relaxing music or natural sounds like the waves of the ocean. Meditating with music helps to drown out outside noises and helps to set a relaxing mood. I would suggest turning off all computers, phones, televisions, et cetera and make sure that this is a time where you can be alone for at least a 1/2 of an hour.

Get comfortable with a pillow and blanket if you tend to get cold easily. Your body temperature tends to drop in a meditative state.

First picture white light above your head making sure to open all your chakras first. Bring the white light over your body starting at the crown chakra and gradually bringing it into and through your body connecting the light to each chakra. Repeat with emerald green light. At this point you are starting to relax and training your mind to tune out your physical body. this is the very beginning of the creative visualization process.

Our next lesson will be the actual journey that will cause you to leave your body and connect with your spirit guides.

Here is an image of my Major Chakra Chart in case you are unsure of where the Major chakras are located on our bodies.

2016 Predictions

General:

• The G.O.P will not unite with Trump before the Primary. The G.O.P. will continue to lose popularity this year despite having a couple of popular candidates. Trump can very well win the nomination for the Republican candidate.
• Isis will not become a major task for President Obama to handle before he leaves office. He will put a few more troops on the ground but not enough to make a difference.
• Isis will continue to expand their territories in the Middle east. Libya will be next.
• Racial tensions will increase in the USA in 2016. Civil War could break out in the States this year. Tensions and violence will come to have more police shootings this year with Americans growing more tired of violence from protesters.
• Mass shootings will increase as will terrorists home grown violence in major cities, Los Angeles, New York & Washington, D.C. among the worst.
• President Obama will use his Executive Order for Gun Control which will increase anger among American voters and could hurt the Democrats at Election time.
  This will set the stage toward more uprisings among Americans to keep their guns.
• More bombings will occur in European Countries this year. Tighter airport security around the world will occur. There will be armed guards at most major airports in the U.S. starting toward the end of 2016.
• The old America has changed forever from the early days as we now need to adjust to caution, travel, home grown terrorism and losing our privacy.

• The real Estate market will pretty much stay the same this year.
• Basically I forecast a much stronger and aware America as we continue to grow and learn from past mistakes.
• Our number 9 year ( 2016 ) means drastic unenviable change. It’s the most powerful number and as I stated in my numerology prediction, we can’t change what we’re headed for but not to fight it.
• It could be great or pure disaster. Our next President will determine the outcome for our countries future.
• Uber will grow and rise in popularity in the U.S and have major conflicts with taxi and shuttles this coming Spring.
• Uber will decline in most major European Cities.
• More American teenagers will gain employment under the ages of 18 for social media marketing, television and film industry.
• Hackers will be a new source of employment especially for government agencies and major corporations
• More Americans will continue to down size their spending as the economy continues to fluctuate.

Entertainment:

• The new Jan. 5, 2016 T.V series ” The Killing Fields ” on Discovery Channel will top the charts and do several seasons as a new Reality hit show.

The year 2016 calculates out to a 9 (2+0+1+6 = 9). Its appearance indicates that all of us in the world are coming to the end of a cycle. This current cycle began in 2008 which is a 1 (2+0+0+8 = 10[1+0 = 1]). 2008 marked the beginning of a very bad economy that has been very hard to turn around. Many people found themselves unemployed for a long period of time. Many of those people were forced to re-invent themselves in order to survive financially. That is what the 9 and the 1 bring to us: endings that start new beginnings.

The 9 in the year 2016 brings with it the hope that we will finally see the end of the economic struggles that have affected everyone around the world since 2008. And it brings hope that we will see an end to terrorism around the world. It may also bring some notable deaths in 2016 as it is possible for the 9 to create this type of ending, too.

The effect of the 9 on each of us here on Earth began at the stroke of midnight on December 31st. It’s power and its affect is now on the rise. It will reach its apex on July, 2, 2016. After that date the effect of the 9 will slowly wane. Its strongest affect will occur between March 31, 2016 and September 30th, 2016. Be on the lookout for inevitable, powerful change in that period of time. And remember, that change can be either positive or negative. (See my blog on defining the number 9 for an in-depth interpretation of the 9.)

So what effect will the 9 have on us? The 9 is the most powerful of the simple numbers 1 – 9. The most important effect of the 9 is that it creates new beginnings in the number 1 by creating the end of what came before it. So expect to see some of that in your life this year. And pay particular attention to those things that come to an end all year long. And be warned, if you resist inevitable change this year you will pay a big price for it.

The lesson of the 9 is learning to accept the end when it comes. If you fight the inevitable end in 2016 it will have a negative effect on you  and that effect can grow completely out of proportion. The lesson here is giving in and having faith that the change that may be forced on you is necessary. It will bring something new to you if you will just get out of its way.

We should focus on ending things this year that have gone on for too long. For example: a contentious divorce, a lengthy lawsuit, a bad relationship, et cetera. You get the idea. If something is lingering in your life bring it to a definite close this year. Do this knowing that you will be ready for the 1 that follows the 9 in 2017. If you allow unfinished business to continue on into 2017 you will not benefit fully from the positive effect of the 1.

If death visits your inner circle in 2016 don’t allow it to lock you into a lengthy grieving period. Try to look back into your past experiences with the person who has passed and celebrate their lives in that way. The next year in this case will be about adjusting to life without the presence of the person who has passed.

Above all, the 9 is not to be feared. It does, however, need to be respected.

After some thought I realized that it would be easier to cure the guas that I discussed in my last post rather than go through all 9 guas in the floor plan at once So, here are the cures for the entrance and the first gua.

The Entrance:

Deficiency: The front and back door do not line up in the floor plan. This is a hard deficiency to cure. There is no way to re-direct the energy from front to back with the usual cure. That is to hang multi-faceted crystals in key doorways to broadcast the energy to the back.

Cure: I would hang a round, multi-faceted crystal from a red string just inside the front door and at the hallway door that leads to the bedroom, walk-in closet and back office. I would also hang a similar crystal at the junction of the hallway at the closet, bathroom and back office doors. This will help to disperse the energy somewhat throughout the back of the house.

Alternative Cure: If you know a Reiki practitioner, have them direct the energy from the front door by drawing and invoking the Cho Ku Rei symbol just outside the open front door. Upon stepping into the house, the Cho Ku Rei symbol is drawn and invoked verbally at the entrance to every room in the house. This will direct the natural energy throughout the entire house. This should be done periodically to give the house a tune-up. My partner, John Scarano, and I are Reiki Masters. We perform this service for ourselves and for our clients.

The Helpful People and Travel gua:

Deficiency: This gua is deficient in metal and earth. This room is an important room for the people who own the house. They work from home and meet with clients and service providers in their living room. It’s important to keep this room balanced so that the numerical 5 vibration of this gua is in good working order. 5 is the number of communication and desired change which is important when they meet with people in this room.

Cure: The room needs a large  live or artificial potted plant to add earth. A Diffenbachia Species or large Dracaena Species plant would do well. The potting soil in the pots represent earth. Otherwise, I would place several  6 to 8 inch potted plants throughout the room. Or, you could add a large, white Quartz crystal in a prominent place inside the gua.

In addition, the placement of a sizable metal statue of an elephant, a whale or a metal small scale replica of a large building on the coffee table would add enough metal as a cure. Soothing New Age music should be played in the room whenever it is in use.

Next: I will discuss the cures for the the Career and Lifepath and  the Skills and Knowledge guas.
