How To Harness Your Inner Power

Within all of us is a deep reservoir of untapped potential filled with knowledge about the physical and spiritual worlds. Part of the Craft is about getting in touch with that "inner knowing" - learning how to read th signals, which are often weak and competing with all manner of noise to be heard. Some people naturally hear these signals very clearly, such as Clairvoyants, but, like many others, you may have to work at it.

You may have experiences telepathy without even being aware of it - its what happens when you think of a freind and suddenly they ring you up... and you may have experiences clairvoyance - how many times have you said... "I KNEW that would happen" There are tools to help develop these divining gifts, such as pendulums, or dowsing rods, and wands that help direct the energies of your inner power.

When you tap into your inner power you are also exercising your intuition, and when you use your intuition you are really entering into the Universal psyche - bypassing your own personal views and touching upon the Universal truth. This is because your intuition is largely based upon what you "feel" about something, and as well as drawing upon the wisdom that has been taught to you by life experience. Intuitive feelings are guided by that deep, hidden voice... Your brain is constantly making a racket, and throwing up all manner of things to distract you from your inner truth - doubts and fears as well as logic and reasoning are all blocks to hearing your intuition and to harnessing the power within. Meditation is the art of learning to bypass this noise, so that quiet voice of truth can be heard.

The unconscious has many messages for you and it speaks through symbols and dreams, rather than directly. Unless you are already finely tuned to listening to your inner voice, many of the signals which are trying so hard to be heard can only bypass the everyday clatter by working at night. Unconscious messages appear in your dreams in the form of coded symbols. There is a forum here, under construction that explains these symbols in more depth.

You can become more open to the messages from the unconscious by recording your dreams and familiarising yourself with the workings of your mind. Keep a notebook and pencil by your bed, and upon waking write down your dreams. Over time you will uncover more and more and open an easier dialogue between the unconscious and conscious mind.
