2012: Prophecy or Potential?
Posted by Intuition Girl
There has been a lot of chatter on the Web, on TV programming and in open discussion about the year 2012. Propagating Mayan Prophecy further was the film debut of 2012, which held viewing audiences captivated with its spectacular and alarming scenes of a cataclysmic event.
Throughout the ages, man has reveled in the shadows of prophecy and ancient texts. We have looked to the stars for answers, we have dove into meditation to seek answers from within, we have been to our churches and synagogues; and beyond that, we have listened and watched what others have said and sermonized. What it boils down to is that we are a spiritually-hungry people who desire that part in us that we have somehow lost along the way in our journeys in life.
The doomsday phenomena is the town talk… it is all about how solar cycles are going to peak on or about December 21, 2012 – December 23, 2012 during the winter solstice. And this just so happens to coincide with ancient Mayan prophecy. There are many unanswered questions that remain in our hearts and minds in regards to the 2012 phenomena. The question, however, that we should all be asking ourselves is: “Must we live beneath an umbrella of fear and discontent?” There are many factions in this country and around the world, which will use the doomsday scenario to place fear in the hearts of the willing. I say walk away from those fears. What we will can and will ultimately become the end result in all things that we aspire to be and do.
Hysterical history…
Before the turn of the century, people throughout the United States and abroad were fearful of the Y2K bug. Do you remember that? What in the world would we do if all the computer systems failed? But they did not. Prior to the 2000 bug, there were several doomsday cults whose self-fulfilling prophecies terrified followers (and leaders) into unthinkable acts. The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments (among others) was such one of these groups that convinced its followers that the apocalypse was going to occur in the year 2000. With the entrance of the new millennium, the group began to unravel because the “apocalypse” did not transpire as they had prophesized to their followers. In early spring of 2000, movement leaders were losing their control. By late March, authorities discovered a mass murder* of over 700 group members. Self-fulfilling prophecies can only come true if we enable our unbalanced emotions to override our human intuitive will and individual power of the mind-thought.
Now we fast-forward to 2010. We live in an age and time where science is broaching genius. We are learning things so fast that our minds can barely keep up with emerging news, innovations, inventions, data and science, of course. At the same time, we attempt to lead normal everyday lives where we go to work, come home, spend time with our loved ones, go to sleep, and start all over again. Our minds and bodies are working in automatic over-drive. This leaves little time or room for us to truly process the information that is disseminated to us day in and day out. Because our mental status is preoccupied with so much clutter, the only space that we leave open is for the “flight or fight” response. Trigger words, thoughts, ideas, people and events can springboard us into a negative downward spiral. And that, my friends is how fearful “prophecies” and notions can get us into hot water rather quickly.
You’re so intuitive – then you tell us what’s going to happen in 2012…
The uniqueness of the 2012 phenomena is that the future is always changing…always transforming by thoughts, deeds and actions. The butterfly effect of human nature is that while the potential exists of a cataclysmic event, and that while a potential exists scientifically that these things will all come to pass, and that while a potential exists that the interpretation of the Mayan prophecy is exactly that…we must stop to think in what direction we are now going (personally and as a people) to fully grasp the power and potentiality of our human will. That is the beauty of a future paradox… we can always change that what has not yet happened.
Human willpower combined with the power of the mind-thought, is one of the Divine’s greatest gifts ever given to mankind. How and what we do with that power, will ultimately shape our destinies. There is still time to change our fate for the human race. But it depends solely on our ability to transcend negative energy and animosity to create a healthier, more conducive environment for the flow of positive Universal energy. When we, as a human race, have overcome our ego minds with the stillness that our authentic self offers us, then only can we use our intuitive will and talents to determine the best overall outcome. Sixties idol, Jimi Hendrix could not have said it better: “When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.” And that, is the same concept that you must use in your life today and everyday to deal with your fears, your animosities, your transgressions, and the information that you receive when you least expect it.
The world will be watching as 2012 fast approaches. That means we, as the human race, have roughly two years to gear our minds toward more positive thinking. It is time to awaken to our true potential. The joy-filled possibilities are waiting to be born. We must let go of the fears riding our backs and weighing us down into the abyss of cyclic anxiety. Human intuitive will is a powerful force when used in proper alignment with the universal flow of energy. Let go of the fear. Breathe. Today is a new day, tomorrow has not yet begun…and the rest of our future will be played out exactly in accordance to what our intuitive will encourages us to do both individually and as a collective community.
Until we speak again,
I am, Joan Marie, Intuition Girl

Stuck and seeking new direction!
Posted by Intuition Girl
Question 1
Hi Joan Marie:
Darling, I’m stuck! I am not feeling very empowered lately— my family is growing up fast, I have given up 
my job to do something different with my life and I have this nagging voice inside telling me to speak up! What about I haven’t got a clue?
I know I’m asking for a miracle here telling you my story and hoping you will reply to my email soon. I’m not barmy—I’m a middle- aged lady wanting some direction.
Warmest regard
Joanne Barber
ANSWER
Dear Joanne:
Thank you for your honest email. You are anticipating change in your life and of course patience is not always easy. May I suggest that you start writing down your feelings and be sure to include those things that you wish to speak up on. There is a big difference between yelling and being angry and frustrated as opposed to knowing who you are within and moving into your power so that you can express yourself to the best of your ability and feel empowered.
You are a great candidate for my 10- month Coaching Program. For while you grow and discover your true purpose (as you pay attention to the clues); you will also have the opportunity to receive a Certification in Professional Intuitive Life Coaching (PILC). I feel your need and desire to assist others; and what better way to serve other than to inspire those who possibly are experiencing the same disconnect as you. I am sure they would benefit from the knowledge gained by you—it first starts with you removing the blocks that bind you—from the inside out.

Many Blessings, Joan Marie the gift
Don’t eat the yellow snow! Winter tips for creative living
Posted by Intuition Girl
Remember when we were little and the older kids would tell us that we shouldn’t eat the yellow snow? Sometimes, the older we get, the wiser we get. That — and experience tells us what we should and shouldn’t do for our own sake and our own health. But there’s always that one individual that no matter how many times he’s been told to not do something, he does it anyway. Every time that individual repeats his actions, he beats his head against the wall and wonders why he did it again.
Don’t eat the yellow snow! It’s right there in front of you. You’ve been advised not to eat it. Yet you continue to eat it again and again. That’s kind of what happens when you keep repeating the same actions to acquire a different result. Stop it!
In order to achieve the best possible outcome, (besides not eating the yellow snow) one must take a long look at how she’s approaching her challenges and go beyond the norm, and go beyond the measures that she’s taken in the past. Sometimes, we have to tackle the one problem we have with different insights and ideas. It’s not that difficult; especially if you’ve digested some rather unsavory ramifications time and time again.
Winter tips for creative living
Intuition and Meditation:
Use your intuition and experience to work for you and not against you. If you’ve battled the same battles, then you’re not in the right mindset. That means that whatever thoughts are spinning in your head must be tossed to the wayside. Start fresh. Start thinking power and empowerment. Don’t become your worst own enemy by continuing to do the same negative things to achieve success and wealth in your life. Look back at your life and see what has worked and what has not worked. Hold that thought. Now, take a deep breath and relax your mind totally. Ask yourself, “What can I do to attain_____?” (Fill in the blank.) Take another breath. Close your eyes and imagine beyond all that you’ve ever thought about in your life. Go deeper. Deeper still. Where are you in your mind? What windows of opportunity do you see affront of you? Do you see any ideas that can help you achieve what it is you want to reach? If you’re not seeing them, you’re missing the ball. You have got to get right with your mind, your body, and your spirit in order to balance the creative flow and energy in your life…and in your livelihood. You don’t have to go through life eating the yellow snow and hoping it’ll taste better the next time around. You are ready to move beyond that spot, and move forward to play and enjoy the beauty and wonder of winter (and your life) to build that igloo, build that snowman, or just to frolic in the white powdery crystals that grace our view.
Listen to your inner child
Winter is the season of reflection. It is during this time that most of us take time to muse at the wonders and events of our childhoods, our relationships, our dreams, our hopes, and our futures. Now is the perfect time to grab the reigns of your sleigh, set a course for adventure, and take in the beauty that is life and what it has to offer us. You are a part of that integral fabric of nature that makes this world a much more beautiful place to be…and what you do in this life can affect your destiny in a number of positive (and negative) ways. Isn’t it time, you listened to your inner voice… your inner child to retrieve the magic of what it means to be alive and to simply be here at this moment? When you’ve taken the steps to reflect in meditation and thoughtfulness, you will rediscover that magical feeling again. And when you do, you are on the right path toward overcoming mistakes of the past to create a bright new future for yourself and for the ones you love.
Fire dancing
Ever watched a flame in your fireplace? The flames dance in rhythmic and hypnotic sync. You can hear the wooden logs crackling and hissing as the flames grow. There’s a whole lot of energy in that fireplace. So much energy, that you can feel its warmth and vibration. That’s how you need to mold your mind. Create a spark of fire in your mind and keep the flame ignited with intuitive thinking and insightful thoughts on how to move forward every step of the way. You might still run into some hiccups but that’s okay. We all do. The important thing to remember is to always keep your flame alive, and never let it be diminished by negative thinking or by re-hashing the same mistakes of the past.

Sharing the Truth with your Ego Mind
Posted by Intuition Girl
Question # 2
Hi Joan Marie:
Thank you for blessing all of our lives. It has been a great privilege to have been directed by the Universe to you. I still do not know the exact direction my life is going but I am working on it. I need to take better care of myself so that I don’t continually sabotage my outcome. I know I have a lot of work to do on myself and I would really love to truly believe in my possibilities and myself.
I know for a fact that I have huge potential; I just do not have the sight you have or see exactly what my future life will be. I would appreciate if you would share some thoughts with me as to how I can keep my energy high so that my ego will no longer take me down for not having the money to move forward or the self talk that stops my forward movement.
Thank you for your assistance,
Jackie K.
ANSWER
Dear Jackie:
This is a great email. The ego is a tricky part of us. On one hand the ego is acting as our protector and wanting to keep us from harm when the truth is most times it is keeping us from succeeding and creating what we need in life.
What is helpful to do is first give your ego a job. When you become aware that your fear or the feeling of lack is surfacing within you, be aware that is the ego trying to keep you small. I would like you to say to your ego: “why don’t you come to the other side of the road with me.” Share with your ego the truth of whom you are and that this is the path you are now taking. Let the ego know that she/ he can also participate and help you on this new path.
Once you give your ego a job and a purpose it will join you on the other side of the road. It would also serve you to have a game plan for yourself and be prepared to have several discussions with your ego mind. This way when your ego wants to take you out or it challenges your decisions, you can so “No Thank You,” that is not true–this plan is my plan to propel me forward. Then again invite your ego mind to please join you.
One last suggestion–I would also like you to understand your relationship with money and bless money with gratitude.
Blessings,
Joan Marie, the Gift – Intuition Girl

Teaching Children: You are Enough
Posted by Intuition Girl
Question # 1
Dear Joan Marie:
I have a friend whose 12-year old child just had a serious accident. He injured himself while playing with friends. In his short life, he has injured himself several times and has ended up receiving stitches, having a concussion and now injuring his eyes. I was wondering if you had any insight into this child and his situation. I believe that he subconsciously is seeking attention but the results always seem to cause him and his family great pain.
I would really like to hear if you can give me your thoughts on this situation and child.
Thank you, Terry W.
ANSWER
Dear Terry:
Thank you for your email. I do feel that this child is unconsciously craving attention. I believe that deep within himself he is feeling very insecure and is seeking extra attention. The best advice for this child and all of us who are seeking outside approval is to learn that you are enough. I want to repeat that statement: “You are enough.”
How we teach a child this is that we ourselves as parents need to feel whole within as well. The best thing this family can do and anyone who relates to this question is to have in depth communication as a family. In today’s world, we are all too busy rushing and doing things just to keep busy and consequently, we do not spend enough of time simply being and feeling. This state of contentment can only happen when we slow down and actually observe our lives and the lives of those that we are intimately connected to. It is important for all parties to feel safe so they can open their heart and express what is going on deep within their core.
Understanding that you are enough—is a learned art, and is as equally important as loving and appreciating all of you. If each one of us would understand that we alone are enough the world would be a much better place.
Enjoy the blessings of being you,
Joan Marie, the Gift – Intuition Girl
