and you will call it fate."

Got a question about London's Urban Shaman 'Spirit Bear' shares his wisdom to help solve your problems in a fun way. Have you got a burning question that you just can't seem to find the answer to? It could be a simple question, such as: 'Should I go on holiday with this hunky guy I only just met?' Never an easy one, when it's all expenses paid! Divination can help. Complete the following exercise, using a pad and pen, to find the answer. The whole exercise should take about 20 minutes. 1. Go for a relaxing walk outside. (If you are self conscious, you can do this exercise in your living-room, but a walk is more fun). During the walk, find a place of balance and stand on the dividing line. For example, where a pavement meets a road or where sunlight creates a shadow. 2. Close your eyes and state your intention, i.e. 'My intention is to answer my question.' Be clear with your intent as you state it, then ask your question: 'My question is...' Then, turn 360 degrees and stop. Open your eyes and write down one thing that catches your eye. This could be anything, a red sign, a tree, a bird etc. 3. Continue your walk until you find another place of balance and repeat the exercise in point 2. 4. Repeat again, for a total of 3 times. Make sure each time to state your intention and your question, and to stop at a different place. 5. Write a one paragraph story that includes the three objects that you noticed. Relate the story to your question, and like magic, you have your answer. Not sure how? Here's how it works. Using the above example, let's say your 3 objects were: A plane, the colour red, and trees. Your story could go: One beautiful day I was walking along when all of a sudden a PLANE crashed in front of me and ploughed into the TREES and burst into a RED ball of flames. How does this relate to the question: Should I go on holiday with this hunk? Try and have a think. Spirit Bear says that it doesn’t mean that the plane you catch together will crash and you both die, just that the holiday romance probably will crash and end in disaster. We all know the answers to our questions at a deeper unconscious level, and this exercise simply allows the unconscious to direct our story, informing our conscious mind of the answer, which seemingly appears to us 'as if' it were magic. And you thought you chose the objects and wrote the story! When we don't listen to the answers and do what we want to do what ever, that is when our ego (personality) interferes with our core-self. This is when problems arise in our lives and we wonder why it always happens to us. Have fun and enjoy the walk and just go with the flow. Til we meet again Johnathan 'Spirit Bear' - The Urban Shaman
