Numerology. Making it Work for You (Book) - 9/25/2008 2:31:18 PM
i want to read this book

The Philosophy of the Tarot for the 21st Century (Book) - 7/21/2006 2:59:56 PM
I confess I haven't yet bought "The Philosophy of the Tarot for the 21st Century", but after reading Shane Ward's fascinating introduction, I am seriously tempted to do so. I was given a pack of Tarot cards (The Morgan-Greer deck) years ago, but have never properly learned how to read them, even though I did once have a guide book which wasn't very clear or helpful. Shane Ward's book does sound educational, especially as it promises to ‘describe the Tarot in a way that makes sense to ordinary people in ordinary life. You do not need to know anything about the Tarot to find this book thought provoking.’ Judging by the introduction, the book also gives one hope for mankind's future. For instance, the current, escalating Middle East crisis is depressing, making one think how long is the planet going to survive? The so called 'Golden Age' seems to be a long way in the future, but "The Philosophy of the Tarot for the 21st Century" gives its readers a convincing philosophy that there is eternal hope. The predictive new Age seems to consist of machines’ burgeoning intellect,, but Shane Ward's book (judging by his interesting introduction) does seem to give hope that generally speaking, spirituality is a more powerful force than cerebrial technology. On a pesonal note, If this book teaches me how to read my deck of Tarot cards, then for myself, it will be invaluable.

Fantastic

When music was mightier than the pen (Short Story) - 1/28/2009 8:21:57 AM
It's fantastic music. After some 14 years of studying classics on Piano, i believe I can that. It's really speaking your heart. I'm sorry that i write just now, but it's for the first time i heard your symphony. Hope you will continue to write (both ways you know so good)

The File (Short Story) - 10/25/2007 6:25:34 PM
This Shane, is excellent and sort of reminds me of the old movie, "The Day The Earth Stood Still." Walt

When music was mightier than the pen (Short Story) - 12/12/2004 2:49:57 PM
Although I was born in the country classical music was always my favorite and the violin speaks so clearly. You have your father's music as a comfort when times are rough.

When music was mightier than the pen (Short Story) - 12/12/2004 8:25:41 AM
This is nothing short of magnificient, Shane. I love classical music and yours is spectacular. This story tore at my heart as I could feel your need to expell your grief. There is a part in this piece where it sounded as though there was the breathing of an accordian somewhere in the background. Thank you for this wonderful page. Take care, Sherry

Publish and be Damned (Chapter 33 of Walking the Path) (Short Story) - 11/8/2004 9:50:13 PM
Very interesting topics. Your article addresses many of the hurdles and hardship many of us have to go through. In a world of lies and semi-lies it takes a lot of guts to persevere. Personally, I've given up on making money by writing - inspiring or helping someone out there is good enough for me. I don't see anymore the point of getting a deal with a publisher, as long as some one who wants to read my stuff can read my stuff. This said I wish you a perfect commercial success! Franz

Shane it is a pleasure to read your work. You make me ponder about my own walk. You bring it home for us. This is a great way of us to "finally get it" meaning our own ... walking the path. Thanks to you and much continued success, Pier

delightful write, shane! thanks for sharing!

Astrology Rules (Short Story) - 3/28/2004 4:03:18 PM
I know exactly what you are saying here.I'd start looking to see where Jupiter was transiting and what was Saturn doing for your finances.Saturn has been trainsiting my 2nd house for what must be a year - and it was retrograde- so Ive been making ends meet and been watching my workouts (bones).Jupiter has also been aspecting my part of Fortune..when Saturn went direct- I thought oh oh watch out because its in Cancer- at 6dedrees - i also have Mercury there at 19 deg and my Sun at 23 deg. ( you know I have been watching this)when Saturn went direct- a huge US retailer (you know where to get a best buy?)contacted me to discuss internet security and contract talks. The really interesting thing to me- they were anxious to get started 2 weeks ago- and their legal department responded during the New Moon which was in Aries. Im still looking at upcoming saturn/sun conjunction, but you know, with saturn, you reap greater than what you sow.. I've been studying astrology over 30yrs now and it still fascinates me. The first thing I do upon meeting someone or feeling 'some connection' to someone I do a chart. Im glad to have read this..Thanks for sharing - Donna

Dyslexia: The Wrong Impression (Article) - 7/20/2009 6:52:32 AM
I think that it is totally moronic the way society puts us into little ticky tacky boxes, with labels, and if you fall outside what is considered the norm, you are out of the race, point blank. I'm dyslexic, and so are my two Sons. One is doing Uni now, and will graduate to be a registered nurse. The other has been sidelined, but his perceptions of things are extraordinary. Reading upside down, backtofront, is quite a pastime around here. I challenge any Doctor to leave my file in front of me on his desk, with his opinions on it, and NOT find me reading it. I am also longsighted hehe. Dyslexia is a handicap because ppl who don't have it, are envious of the extra abilities that we have. Dyslexics always think outside the proverbial box...envision things, and act upon them given half the chance to excel. I quite like reading the back of a book first to see how it ends. If the ending is boring, I don't read the beginning LOL..Why bother, I got the gist of it already. There's alot ot this knid fo hting haha....didnt correct those ones did I. I type at approx 30-40 wpm. Used to be able to remember 200 wpm in shorthand too...Sensories also..Hearng, Smell, touch, taste.. very acute!! Handicapped! HUH, Education dept's are handicapped, in the ignorance dept. Sorry having a rant here. My Second Son will end up blowing off the usual education facilties, and go to Tafe ( here in OZ) where he will do what his brother did. We have our uses, unscrambling word patterns, spy agencies are always on the look out for peeps like us..ROFL Enjoyed the article, thanks for writing this Shane... Regards Shane Oh, I can also type uspide down ;)

Beware the Psychic Fair (Article) - 2/3/2009 4:04:57 PM
Hello Shane and thank you for your article. While freedom of speech is a vital, undeniable right - freedom of response is equally undeniable. Wow, it's a shame that you have had such miserable experiences and that things are so vastly different where you live. Too bad readers from all over the globe will see your article and some who genuinely need help may choose not to seek it, but free will is free will. Your "rules" are well thought out and do show a level of compassion, so thank you. Generalizations are so unfair. Perhaps fewer of them would help your readers understand that you are speaking from your personal experience and heart. I invite you to Monterey California and the ROTA Psychic Fair. These fairs (2x/year) are everything that your description is NOT. The producer charges a very low up-front site rate and has a staff who handles all scheduling and money ($20/reading). This is my fifth year at this fair and I work it for two reasons. I'm there because the energy in the room is electrifying, loving, bright, and encouraging. Yes, my turn to generalize. Okay, 90% of the environment is amazing, the rest is forgivable (first lifers I call them). Yes, there are a few (very few) who are there to profit, but most are like me - hoping to just break even so that I can come back again. The other/main reason that I work psychic fairs is that I live in a VERY close-minded area of California (yes Dorothy, they do exist) - one that would just as soon run someone out of town on a rail for their "radical" views as look at them. In Monterey, I find acceptance and welcome. So much so, in fact, that I am currently screwing up my courage bring that brightness home by producing a fair (same structure/feel) in my closed-minded county (BIG RISK). ANYWAY, I'd like to comment on your Rules Shane and hope that you give my thoughts the same tolerance and respect that I give yours. Rule number 1. Beware psychic fairs. Not at all - not at all, at least not in my country or my experience. Again, 90% are not there for the money. Ha, what money? :) If a Reader truly cares about themselves, their clients, and the world as a whole - they would never seek profit from readings above covering expenses. It's okay to be compensated (I like your wage parity!), but a reader called by a higher power to help others wouldn't seek clear profit. AND any well-versed reader knows full-well how to guard themselves against crowded rooms, negative energy, and even harsh criticism. :) Your Rules 2 is good - again, generally. I occasionally advertise to help out local papers and to ensure their support of the fair - they offer great deals on advertising spots and it's a great way to tell total strangers a bit about me. I wouldn't do so, however, if I was able to have a "place" in my area. Just too cheesy feeling - no neon signs either. Yikes. :) I totally agree with you on Rule 3 - although I think it important not to confuse those con artists with genuine telephone readers. I live 150 miles from many of my clients and so telephone readings are the only way we can meet. You'd be amazed (I know I was) at how much great information one can get/give on the phone. Trust me. Rule 4 - whenever possible - absolutely. If it's not possible, meet the Reader with an open mind. If it's someone you'd like to chat with over tea, then give them a try. If you don't "like" a Reader, would you really trust them with your future? I wouldn't. The story in your Rule 5 is great - and a common one. I've also heard it put, "your client will give your reading respect equal to its cost." I have had my share of "reading junkies" and that situation is of no help to anyone. I would like to expand on your Rule 6. No correctly motivated Reader (neither ego nor profit driven) would ever tell anyone that they are going to be financially ruined and there's nothing they can do about it. You're a Reader, you know that. You're absolutely right about our purpose - we don't tell people what will happen, we tell people what will likely happen if they continue on the path that they're on - good or bad. We empower our clients with enough information so that they can make changes or not - depending on their desired outcome. There's a terrific psychic in California named Joseph Ernest Martin who once said, "I read Tarot because if there's a hole in the road ahead, I want to know so I can drive around it; and if it going to rain money tomorrow, I want to know so I can bring a bucket!" That's what we do - we look for holes and rain. My comment about your Rule 7 is that I wish you had posted your second reason first. Personally, I would avoid Readers who employ the "shock and awe" tactic of telling their clients things they couldn't possibly know and then guessing the rest. There are truly gifted psychics our there, but few label themselves Tarot Card Readers. Readers, by nature, are intuitive and so YES, do pick up on the client's energy and passion. I've had a client ask me about a relationship and be so obsessed with it's success that she actually jaded my cards. On second read, I picked up on it and was able to cut those parts out for a much more realistic reading. In a fair setting, the client is paying around a dollar a minute and shouldn't be paying money to tell their own story. I start by describing my client's general character and then go briefly through their past and present. I tell them, "I don't know you and I don't know where you've been or are now in your life. If I'm hitting it right about you, your past, and your present, we'll have an accurate future read. If I'm off-base on what you already know, I may be off base about what will be - like that would matter since would be silly to believe me then anyway. You and I work together - if you see something in the cards that I don't - speak up." I am an interpreter - not an indisputable expert and certainly not a psychic. Rule 8? I'm all over that one. My clients are my best advertising! Rule 9, however, well - I agree that the best readings give answers. That said, sometimes, clients want confirmation that things are the way they are seeing them AND sometimes, a novice will want a "general reading" because they aren't sure what to ask or how to ask it. It's a great way to get a little wet without jumping in a lake. I agree with you about spending wisely, but I have several clients who are prosperous enough to get $200 in readings (visiting 4-5 Readers each day) - every single fair. I let them make their own decisions and as long as they're not talking about financial hardships, etc. (have an addiction to drama, low self-esteem, or other obsessive issues - as you so well put it under Rule 10). If they're generally healthy, I trust that they are choosing a form of entertainment that works for them and try to give them their monies worth. I apologize for writing a reply that is as long as your article, but I do so with a clear conscience and no ulterior motive (book plug). By the way Shane, I've had many, many free lunches! Bright blessings on you and yours. I wish you peace, joy, success, and continued enlightenment. April Hughes California - USA - soon to be again, a humble world leader.

cool article, Shane writes what all we freedom fighters know is true. Smoking is a silly trick, and the sooner people realise the sooner they can win their freedom.

Beware the Psychic Fair (Article) - 2/26/2008 3:39:07 AM
Shane, Thank you so much for your article! Totally agree! I am, I suppose a pro taro reader? been reading them for friends for nearly 15 years and professionally only resently due to huge demand and continuous arm twisting of all my clients and friends to "do it profesionally! get money for it!" but oh my! I never knew how catty and competitive the "Psychic Industry" is! you would think that Angel readers and Rune masters and Taro readers alike would all have something in common; a deeper understanding of the world, a spiritual effinity, awareness of others, sharing of knowledge and insite, but no, instead its more like an estate agency! never again! I just rely on word of mouth. I'm new to this web site and found it really interesting as I love to discuss things and have so much to say it hurts! may I ask? are you a tarot reader? as I have never met a tarot reader who does it the way I do? intuitivley I suppose? cheers Danny

Dyslexia: The Wrong Impression (Article) - 2/18/2008 4:09:24 PM
I appreciated your well written article. I had a relative with dyslexia. He overcame the reading,but still cannot spell very well. We sent him to Sylvian and via computers he learned to read very well, better than high school graduates and his vocabulary is exceptional. There is something that I will mention just in case you have not heard of it. There has been a correlation between little crawling by an infant and walking sooner than expected. I got down on the floor and crawled with this child. We played a game called, crawl to read. When I spoke to his first grade teacher, she said that she had heard of it and even tried it on her son and it worked for her also. She even mentioned that finger painting will help those who seem to be unable to write very well. Most children with dyslexia are above average in intelligence; otherwise they are not truly learning disabled. Again, your article is great and I hope that people will realize that most people with a learning disability are usually gifted in some other way. Great Job, thank you.

Shane, I wish you the best of luck. I am searching for fame also but a big part of my dream is the wealth. I think that fame and fortune go hand and hand. I had some time between thinking about writing another article so I stop on yours. It is great and I totally agree with all you have to say. I get so tired of people always saying to work hard, make contacts and everything will come around for you. I am tired of waiting and I would like to enjoy my dream. Good Luck.

How do I Become Famous? (Article) - 7/29/2007 9:02:46 PM
Shane, Word is mouth is great but you have to do a lot of marketing and promoting to become famous. However, I enjoyed reading your article and just finished writing in my blog about wearing many hats to get to the top. I am an intuitive numerologist. How does writing fit in with your vibrations? www.jjmichael.org author of It's Not Over Yet.

How do I Become Famous? (Article) - 4/25/2007 10:08:03 AM
This is my theory: if you want to become famous SO badly in our present lifetime, it may be possible in some way or another, but it will take a lot of hard work; however, if you want to be famous for being a true artist, as you mentioned, Mozart, it may not be possible. That's just how it is. I always remember what Nietszche said though, that the "marketplace" is a place inhabited by showmen. Not compromising and sticking to one's principles is always best in the end.

Beware the Psychic Fair (Article) - 3/22/2007 9:12:25 PM
I've had similar experiences at psychic fairs in Alberta. I have not received a good reading at any of these events. I do not believe it is a good idea to allow a psychic to charge me for 'practice'. I do not pay people to practice on me. So, I suppose that I am not a fan of 'the psychic fair'. And as a psychic, thank you for reminding me of that. Great structure and good writing.

How do I Become Famous? (Article) - 3/15/2007 4:17:22 AM
This is a very good article, intensely readable. It held my interest. I agree with most of what you say. Fame does not necessarily equal money. Thanks to the internet we have more of a chance of reaching that penicle. Keep going! Carolyn

How do I Become Famous? (Article) - 3/13/2007 1:38:02 PM
Good luck Shane! It's tough out there - that's for sure... I think that basic hard work is the key to success in ANY industry. My site went from 0 hits to 70,000/wk (www.petsweekly.com) inside of 8 months. But, I work VERY hard on PR, making connections and providing a site that is chock full of reliable information. Research, read and talk to people - that's your best bet! Word of mouth is absolutely crucial, but so is getting involved with your work, self-promoting is also a big plus, and one that many aspiring artists (including myself) have problems with. It does, after all, mean opening yourself up to criticism. Just remember you can't please everyone on the time - there are simply too many people ont his earth! Besides, everything has a price, no? Good luck!

And this reminds me of something I heard the other day ~ that the peach is a member of the almond family, and almonds do look like peach pits. And that reminds me that my great great grandfather, Alfred, who was English, had a black maid working for him and his wife, who was Spanish. She (my great great grandmother) bore twelve children.

This subject captivates me. When I was a teenager my mom would needle me by pointing out that my dad is famous and adding I'm a nobody. I thought I would never get this monkey off my back. Than came the internet and my book is sold by Amazon.Com in six countries and hardly anyone talks about dad's big name. The monkey is off my back because I persevered.

Yeah ... congratulations Shane! Life is so much better being free of the need to be ruled by taking a little packet of poison wherever one goes! I gave up nearly a decade ago as I had a serious health concern and knew there was no way my body could recover when I was taking in that which contradicted every impulse to health regeneration... In fact, I'm still on a healing crusade and celebrate the increasing gap of not being psychologically trapped to the Great Lord Nicotine. Thank you this thorough, necessary and life-giving write Shane! Love and friendship Suzie :-D

Direct Sales - Spam on the Telephone (Article) - 9/1/2006 9:30:04 AM
I can commiserate with you. I would get up to 20-30 calls a day from companies soliciting one thing or another. I found a little electronic "buttler" from some obscure catalog that you connect in the phone line and here in the states we have caller ID, when it works. I just hit that little button and it says "take me off your list." By law they have to. If they do not, and continue to call, you report them to the Attorney General. Not all states have this, but Arizona does. Now I get a sales call perhaps once or twice a month. What a relief. Good article. I could never see the sense in a cell phone or text messasging...just more junk. Elizabeth

First rate narrative on the real story. I never smoked bu my mom did for 50 years. At 76 we made her stop, using the patch. By golly she did it and is far better off for it. That was 8 months ago. Does she still want one - as you said, You Betcha. Ordinary chewing gum works wonders. Patrick

No Smoking (Poetry) - 8/21/2009 11:16:11 AM
I am one of the reformed types myself, but cannot say that I had any great awakening when I finally gave up for good (after many times trying). My life seemed exactly the same except for the fact that I constantly wanted a cigarette. I still wish that they made a nonaddictive cigarette that I could have just once in a while without any desire to have one again. I truly miss the taste, the smell, etc., but realized some time after quitting how disgusting it is to make out with a smoker. I apologized to my ex-girlfriend, but considering that she was the main reason I kept it up (I finally kicked a few short days after we ended) I wasn't that sorry. I CAN'T GO ON--I WILL GO ON!
