			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The custom of jack-o&rsquo;-lanterns made of hollowed out turnips or beets originated in Ireland. As some Irish immigrated to America they began using pumpkins and squash. According to legend, the jack-o&rsquo;-lantern got its name from a man named Jack, who eluded the devils many attempts to steal his soul. When he died he could not get into heaven because of his roguish ways in life and when he went to the gates of hell the devil also turned him away and jokingly tossed him a piece of coal so that he could use it for a light in the dark.</p>
<p>Jack used a hollowed out turnip as a makeshift lantern to ward off dark and evil spirits as he wandered through purgatory. At Halloween we still use these &ldquo;lanterns&rdquo; and typically place them near doorways for both light and protection. </p>
<p>In celebration of the holiday and also as a means of attracting protective energies, my family makes a stuffed pumpkin for the Halloween meal. As I have talked to so many of you and view you as part of my family I am sharing the recipe with you. May light and protection fill your days!</p>
<p>Heat Oven to 350F</p>
<p>1 Small Pumpkin</p>
<p>3/4 Teaspoon Salt</p>
<p>2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil</p>
<p>2 1/3 Pounds Precooked Ground Turkey</p>
<p>1 Teaspoon White Pepper</p>
<p>2 Golden Bell Peppers, Chopped</p>
<p>1 Large Red Onion, Chopped</p>
<p>1/3 Pound Precooked Turkey Sausage, Chopped</p>
<p>2 Teaspoons Olive Oil</p>
<p>2 Teaspoons Minced Fresh Oregano</p>
<p>2 Teaspoons Vinegar</p>
<p>1 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper</p>
<p>4 Garlic Cloves, Pressed</p>
<p>1 1/4 Cup golden Raisins</p>
<p>1/3 Cup Green Olives with Pimientos, Chopped</p>
<p>1 (14-Ounce) Can Skinned Tomatoes, Chopped</p>
<p>3 Large Eggs, Beaten</p>
<p>Cut the top off the pumpkin and scoop it out, place it in a large pot of water (be sure water is all around it and in it) and boil for about 15-20 minutes. Sauté all other ingredients together. Place drained pumpkin in a deep baking dish and stuff it with all of the other ingredients. Bake for 1 hour, serves about 8. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we enter a darker season, we tend to look back on the year that has passed and what we have and haven&#8217;t done &#8211; ways we could have helped others, missed acts of kindness and generally a lot of &quot;could have, would have, should have&quot; thoughts arise. For some this can be a depressing time of the year, but it is never too late to make a difference in the world. Make a Difference Day started as a national day in October of 1990 to encourage people to help others by volunteering in their community.</p>
<p>Making a difference in the world doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to go out and do some incredible thing &#8211; it can be as small as bringing someone dinner, picking up trash or doing something nice for someone for no other reason than to be nice. This is what this day is all about. It doesn&#8217;t matter what you do, as long as you do something to make a difference. Making a difference for someone else can really improve your own life as well as theirs!</p>
<p>Learn more about making a difference. Call <strong>1-888-984-7744</strong> or go to <a href="htp://www.powerfulpsychics.com/index.php?campaign=link112">www.PowerfulPsychics.com</a> and get the first 5 minutes of your first psychic reading FREE!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So many times we turn on the television and see a commercial for a show or a preview for a new movie that has something to do with ghosts. However, with no disrespect to Hollywood, what we see in the average horror movie about ghostly encounters does not typically occur in our current reality. Ghosts and spirits that we normally encounter are not here to harm us. On the rare occasion that we encounter a spirit that is malicious in nature… well, that&#8217;s another matter for another day. Right now, let&#8217;s discuss the more commonly dealt with entities in order to alleviate any misperceived ideas and unwarranted fears.</p>
<p>A vast majority of the entities that you are likely to encounter are spirits that are simply passing through or attempting to crossover to the &lsquo;other side&rsquo; and are not meaning to scare us or harm us. Quite to the contrary, they need our help. Sometimes, when people leave this world, the spirit is unable to make the journey to the afterlife. Generally, due to the manner of their death, the souls of the departed are trapped between this world and the next. They come to us either for help with unfinished business or for what some would call a &lsquo;guiding light&rsquo; to the other side.</p>
<p>There are situations where we are surrounded by spirits that we will more than likely never see. Spirits of departed loved ones sometimes stay bound to this world by the love that they feel for us. There is no unfinished business except for their own desire to see the ones that they love carry on and find a new happiness. These souls will continue on to the other side once we have reached a point in our lives when we ourselves have moved on from the relationship and found a new level of happiness. This doesn&rsquo;t mean that we have to begin a new relationship or find a new love, though. What our departed loved one is waiting for is the satisfaction that we have recovered from our loss and regained our happiness.</p>
<p>The most commonly accepted form of spirits or ghosts are what we call guardian angels. While there are occasions where a person&rsquo;s angel is someone related to them (for instance, mine is my older brother who passed on before I was born), generally a guardian angel is simply a wholly good-hearted spirit who is devoted to helping us get past the bumps in the road that our individual lives take us down. These spirits will be with us for our entire lives though they rarely make themselves seen. Therefore, in the rare event that you are gifted with even the smallest glimpse of your guardian angel, cherish that moment and the absolute knowledge that you are never truly alone.</p>
<p>Many times, people become agitated when they find that the spirits around them are interacting and won&rsquo;t leave. Again, these spirits and ghosts do not mean to harm us or cause distress. They are simply in need of our help or they are trying to guide us in the right direction. The things that they do, such as moving objects, are meant to attract our attention. What we do once our attention has been gained is generally what causes the harm and distress. In most cases, we react adversely to the presence of the supernatural because we don&rsquo;t understand why they are present. If we take a moment to remember that most of the supernatural entities that we encounter are not inherently evil and invite them to interact instead of running from them, we would find that the smallest effort of help on our part would be enough to help these spirits let go and move on. In the case of those spirits that are trying to help guide us, once we agree to the direction they are showing us, they will generally become quiet until they feel needed again. The best advice that I could give you as readers would be to keep an open mind and an open heart and not to judge them simply because they are difficult to understand. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I was a little girl I asked my Great-grandmother why we carved pumpkins at Halloween and this is what she told me&#8230;</p>
<p>A long time ago some people didn&#8217;t accept Pagans and Wiccans and we had to hide some of our holidays and celebrations. Halloween is the Pagan holiday of Samhain, a sort of celebration of the changing seasons. This is a very important holiday to us, but was not at all accepted, so we had to find a way to celebrate without anyone finding out. We formed small groups of 13, one for each of the Pagan holidays and each member would be the host for one holiday. On Halloween we like to celebrate outside with a bon fire, lots of dancing and music, but we were always afraid that someone would find us. </p>
<p>One year the person who was to host the Halloween celebration came up with a great plan to scare people out of the area where we were going to have our celebration. Each of us carved scary faces into a pumpkin and at night fall lit candles inside them to make the faces glow. We used the glowing scary faced pumpkins to scare off people and make them think that the area was haunted. No one entered after dark and that allowed us to have our celebrations without fear. We have done it every year since then and now that times have changed, at least a little bit, our tradition has been shared with everyone. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Self-esteem, like water, seeks to reach the same level. It is why people who like themselves attempt to raise others up with praise and positive feedback, while those who dislike themselves do their best to tear others down. It is this dynamic that causes both stress and healing in the world.</p>
<p>Those who live life with a positive attitude find it easier to meet life&#8217;s challenges. The bumps in the road don&#8217;t jostle them as much. Nor do they feel the need to control or manipulate others because they feel powerful within themselves. This doesn&#8217;t mean they are always happy or don&#8217;t lose their temper, but they are more able to right themselves during emotional storms. Since they love and respect themselves, they are more able to see life as an endless supply of possibilities. It is this vision of hope that they project to others not only in their words but also in their deeds. They are more able to help others without strings or condescension, because helping others is a gift they give to themselves, which not only aids the other person but also increases their own self-esteem.</p>
<p>On the other end of the spectrum, those who don&#8217;t like themselves carry a dark cloud around their head. Every incident in their life becomes a major crisis. However, it&#8217;s not the outer world that is the source of their chaos; the anarchy radiates from the individual. Only they refuse to see it; instead, they blame their problems in their life on others or society as a whole. They don&#8217;t feel worthy of others&#8217; love so they don&#8217;t respect or trust those who care about them. It is this mindset that causes them to criticize and emotionally batter others. When they make others feel bad, they get a strange sense of satisfaction and a false sense of superiority. For a brief moment, they have positive self-image. Only the feeling of control never lasts, because the power is an illusion as is the positive self-worth. The only person an individual can truly control is themselves. Only this type of person refuses to look within to find the source of their pain. Instead of sharing hope with others, they spread doubt, fear and anger. It is all they have inside. They never realize that their behavior attacks their self-esteem, making them feel worse in the long run.</p>
<p>How we treat others is a reflection of how we feel about ourselves. Every day we chose to be a blessing or a curse in our own lives. Positive actions and thoughts increase our self-esteem; however, deliberately harming others lowers our self-esteem and attacks our ability to meet life&#8217;s challenges.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re struggling with low self-esteem and would like to chart a new course for your life &#8211; a life filled with positive energy and a stronger sense of self, contact a caring, qualified spiritual advisor at <a href="htp://www.powerfulpsychics.com/index.php?campaign=link112">www.PowerfulPsychics.com</a> today or call <strong>1-888-984-7744</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life  happens and it is not always joyous. There are times when we are  challenged so much that our soul hurts. This happens for a number of  reasons. There could be an ill parent or spouse, money problems, our  own health, worries about our children and much, much more. We come  to live in fear of any difficult outcome in our lives, and we begin  to feel alone. In short, our soul starts to hurt, leading to a deep  wounding pain that blinds us to anything other than our pain.</p>
<p>There  are two ways we react to a wounded soul. One is anger. The other is  depression. In reality, they&rsquo;re one in the same, as depression is  anger directed inward. When we&rsquo;re depressed, we direct our anger  against ourselves because we feel helpless to change what is  happening in our lives. </p>
<p>Regardless  of how anger manifests itself in our lives, we can hurt others when  we are in pain. We may lash out at those around us or we may withdraw  from those who love us. Either way, the quality of our lives is  greatly changed. If we do not choose to address our pain, we may be  in for a long-term cycle of pain.</p>
<p>Over  20 million people suffer from some form of mental illness. Ongoing  anger and depression are only a few of the maladies that encompass  mental illness. One thing is certain—the longer we allow ourselves  to be victim to our pain, the more entrenched in emotional illness we  will become.</p>
<p>While  seeking spiritual guidance to help address the hurting soul, it is  also important to seek help medically or through counseling.  Spiritual guidance can help us understand what we&rsquo;re going through,  but we can only heal by stopping the mental and emotional cycle we  may be experiencing.</p>
<p>We  can also choose to accept the fact that we are not alone, but part a  community where many share our struggle to heal the soul. This will  help us to not feel singled out as we work through our anger. </p>
<p>In  times of stress, it may also be helpful to pray for yourself and ask  your God to lift mental anguish. Light a blue candle for yourself,  for this brings tranquility to the mind. Remember to cleanse your  candle before using it. You can do this simply by wetting your hands  and mentally cleansing the candle as you rub it down with your hands.</p>
<p>These  simple steps can be the beginning of healing the hurting soul. Belief  is very important when your soul is hurting so return to your  spiritual roots to remember you are not alone.</p>
<p>There  are many other simple, therapeutic methods you can take to heal your  tired soul. Contact an expert advisor at <a href="htp://www.powerfulpsychics.com/index.php?campaign=link112">www.PowerfulPsychics.com</a> to begin your journey of spiritual healing or call <strong>1-888-984-7744</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I was talking to one of my clients the other day, one specific phrase seemed to emanate from them and their significant other &#8211; &quot;creating a life of joy&quot;. More often than not, I get asked by clients, friends, and family members about how to bring real joy, happiness and good fortune into their lives. Like me, the client that I was speaking to has found the answer. So how do you create this type of life and feeling for yourself?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The easiest path to a life of joy is to think positive and surround yourself with things that make you happy! The fist step to creating this type of life is to take some time and evaluate your life &#8211; figure out what makes you happy and then start pulling those things into your life. For example, a pet, relationship, a color, and even new bed sheets &#8211; absolutely anything that makes you happy. There will sometimes be things that you want in your life that you cant afford, for these you need to allow yourself to be happy with what you can afford and be truly happy with who you are &#8211; then in time you will be able to afford those things. When you&rsquo;re satisfied in life you magnetize the things you want to you and that includes money, jobs, relationships, and well&#8230;. everything!</p>
</p>
<p>This is a road that I have been down myself and I have gone from dreading getting up in the morning to waking up everyday with a joyful, happy, euphoric feeling in my heart, mind and soul. You CAN do this too. I know that sometimes you may need a little help, a little push in the right direction and confirmation that you&rsquo;re going the right way. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s what we&rsquo;re here for &#8211; give one of the <a href="http://www.powerfulpsychics.com/landing/C/index.php?campaign=link112">www.PowerfulPsychics.com</a> readers a call at <strong>1-888-984-7744 </strong>and we can help you find the path to creating joy in your life!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Autumn Equinox is one of the eight solar holidays and is celebrated on September 23rd this year. Also called Harvest Home, Feast of Ingathering and Harvest Gift, it is not an official ancient festival in name or date. Mabon is one of the newer holidays and is considered the second harvest festival, which celebrates the bringing of the fruits, nuts and berries that grow wild. Although the spirit of the holiday is agricultural related, spiritually it is also the harvesting of the sweeter rewards and receiving of unearned blessings. As the Divine has provided the wild harvest, so does it bestow miracles on those whose words and deeds have been blessings in others lives. It is a time when unexpected gifts are given to the loved ones in your life and the receiving of unexpected blessings from the Divine.</p>
<p>

<p>With the day and night having equal power, so are the feminine and masculine energies evenly balanced. Both female and male deities are honored equally. Although the Sabbath is named for Mabon, the Welsh God who symbolized the male fertilizing principle, Persephone is also honored as she makes her return visit to the underworld, signaling the upcoming close to the yearly harvest. On this day, rituals of thanksgiving for blessings already received and prayers for protection during the up coming winter months are performed. As the cycle of the year continues so hours of daylight shrink, as will the influence of the masculine energy until Yule or Winter Solstice when the Sun God is again reborn. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you moving forward or are you stagnant, like stale water? You may be at the point where you hate how you feel. Are you are imprisoned within hopelessness, fear and self-doubt? You say you are ready to overhaul yourself, but are you really ready? What will it take to move forward? Now is the time to make the change!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The first thing necessary is to get off your pity-pot. We have all been there &#8211; so realize that you are not the only one to have boulders in the road nor are yours the worst possible. Accept that suffering such as this did not select you personally. We need to accept that we are all possible victims to tragedy. However, we need to also look at the suffering we indulge within ourselves, propagated by the fear of moving forward. I often do a self-inventory to access how I have put the past behind me and how far along I am in a happier life for myself. Whereas there may be karmic debts in play for a lot of things, these do not relieve us of the responsibility to seek change wherever we can. We can change our lives but our lives will never change if we do not actively do the work required. There is a lot of difficulty in accepting accountability for where you are. You may be dysfunctional because of an alcoholic or abusive parent. The rage and self-doubt of this childhood may haunt you into adulthood. But, now that you are an adult, what have you done to heal yourself of this unfortunate upbringing? As children we are powerless. As adults we are not.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>We do have the capacity to decide what of our life experiences we wish to keep and those we wish to get rid of because they serve no purpose or get in the way of our happiness. We need to look at how long we allowed the fear, anxiety, hate and self-doubt to torment us, crippling us into inaction. All things have a starting point and the starting point for change begins with one step. Considering all that has affected your life, have you said, &quot;Enough!&quot; yet? </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>More often than not, when a spouse passes away their spirit doesn&#8217;t leave &#8212; at least not right away. Even in the after life, the love that they have still remains and they seem to stick around to make sure that their loved ones will be taken care of. Some only stay for a few hours or days, while others stay for years or until their spouse passes as well. This is especially true with my own grandparents.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>My paternal grandparents were married at 15 and 16 years old. They started their life together with virtually nothing and worked together for over 70 years raising a family and building a life together. Sadly, my grandmother passed away two years ago and although some in my family thought that my grandfather had gone insane, I knew that he hadn&#8217;t. You see, he was still talking to her as though she were there. He swore that he could hear her, but not see her. She was guiding him, telling him that she was okay and that she wanted him to continue on with his life. My grandfather is still with us and tells me all about what grandma has been up to and about all of the wonderful things they will do together once his body is gone. Some still think he&#8217;s gone crazy, but I think that a love like theirs never dies and that bond will carry on.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I have had the joy of talking to many other people about their experiences. One lost their spouse in an accident and she stuck around to be sure that her husband and children were all right. A few years passed and her husband remarried. Only then did she move on to the after life, leaving with the message that she was happy with who he chose and was no longer needed to care for her family. Another example of a love with no boundaries is of a brother who stayed behind to make sure that his sister would be taken care of. He is still around as his sister remains in a deep depression over his death and he will watch over her until he feels that she is healed enough for him to move on.</p>
