4 FASCINATING WOMEN OF COLOR Thanks to my very colorful "google", international editorial wars about my biography on "wikipedia", and the constant overall fascination over me for decades, I decided to include a brief but nevertheless interesting paragraph about myself along with three absolutely legendary, intriguing, beautiful, historical women...

From the earliest times, magic was developed largely by the Egyptians in relation both to the dead and the living. The belief in magic is older in Egypt than the belief in God. Egyptian religion was grounded in a firm and active belief in the importance of magic. Ancient Egyptians believed in, and aspired to use, the power of magical spells, scripts, names, and intricate ceremonies.
There is an entirely new world that awaits us every time we close our eyes and sleep. It is our inner world...a place where we find our deepest and innermost thoughts and impressions. What some people do not realize is that our dreams hold the key to our reality. In order to interpret your dreams, you do not always need a dream book or a dream dictionary that defines and generalizes. The best interpretations are often those that come about when you take the events of your dream and find relevance to the events within your everyday life. Common Dreams -Falling
As we travel through everyday experiences and time, we sometimes encounter the most elaborate, overwhelming, intricately designed obstacles. These matters often leave us perplexed and wondering about everything we have been told and what we once thought we knew...until we know better...

The House of Nicolay (de Nicolay/Nicolai, von Nicolay/Nicolai) is a European noble family that dates back to the early 14th Century, with branches primarily in France, England, and Germany. The surname Nicolay, with variations such as Nicolai, Nickolay, and other regional spellings, in Greek (Nikolaos) means "victory of the people", but keep in mind that this aristocratic name has an equally intriguing background.
I'm not your average "Barbie Doll" model. In fact, if it weren't for my feminine looks and soft toned voice, people would think I was a Navy SEAL or male head of a country, judging from my "guy" personality. Most of my friends are either in the police, military or run multi-million dollar businesses, even dabbling in government affairs and politics. I inspire them when they're up. I encourage them when they're down. One thing I never do is discourage or deter them.
I am mini celebrity in my own rite, known in the media for being a multi-millionaire former model, author, and now a business woman, but the one time I actually dabbled as an employee, I chose telecommunications actually, and successfully negotiated a deal with a highly famous billionaire...
The Name Illuminatius is a portmanteau of "illuminati" and "us". The dream of a new world is no mystery. An enlightened era of love, peace, and happiness can be a reality through proper knowledge, communication, and successful determination. The magic of who we are and what we will become is an evolving possibility, only when we let go of our dark restrictions and embrace the light within. The Science
Results. Success. Helping others. Supporting my family. Making my loved ones proud. As the owner of a couple of medical practices, a skincare company, a publishing company, and a non-profit organization, I do all of that while still being a part of our community boards and taking care of my child, which is of course my absolute top priority. Everything I do, I do to make other people's lives better, which ultimately enriches my family as well.
Some call him the “Son of God”. Others believe he was merely a man on a religious mission. Nevertheless, no one can take away the fact that he performed many miracles in his lifetime that healed and inspired many. He walked on water, yet they crucified him. Was this man a magician? Or was he performing “Acts of God” as the “Son of God” was expected to? The name “Jesus” means “The Lord is salvation” or “The Lord saves” in Greek and is commonly referred to as “Joshua” in Hebrew. The name “Christ” means “anointed” in Greek and “Messiah” in Hebrew.
My greatest accomplishment is being a stay-at-home mother. I went from modeling designer lingerie in front of a staged refrigerator...to wearing my La Leche nursing bra in front of a real refrigerator with my two year old son's art work on it. I am a proud extended breastfeeding mother to our toddler son. My main focus is and will always be my family.
There was a time once when I thought I had nothing, but what I really had was nothing to lose. It took the death of someone I love, in order for me to learn how to live. And now I realize that I am truly blessed, because I have always had it all.
For all of you mothers out there, remember, a mother is the most beautiful woman in the world...
Many people are turning away from subjectively "trained" religions, and becoming their own thinkers, choosing more old world beliefs that go back beyond their more recent relatives, embracing the energy and thought patterns of more ancient ancestors. What is considered to be "New Age" is actually beliefs of the old age, and vice versa. Modern day Christianity, Judaism, etc., have adopted stories and practices that have been widely used amongst pagans and other old religions for thousands of years before them. For example, Satu alia...
When my son was on the way with us to the ER for a small mishap with his allergies, my husband noticed a car with the license plates "Salem". Not only is that the name of a witchy town, it is my father's name, along with several other ancestors, and was given as a middle name to his grandson. When we got to the ER, they said to us that our son's health is fine and not to worry any longer. Fine...but of course I worried...
Michel de Nostredame was born December 24, 1503, in Saint Remi de Provence, a southern part of France and eventually took on the Latin version of his last name, which is “Nostradamus”. Nostradamus was the oldest of five sons in a Jewish family, yet they were all raised Roman Catholic after his parents converted when he was nine years old. In spite of the conversion, Nostradamus remained greatly influenced by the Kabbalah throughout his entire life.
All my life, I have believed in the deeper meaning behind numbers. Numbers in threes have also followed me throughout the years, to let me know I was receiving a message from my higher spirits. That said: 111 - 1 is the number of power, force, individualism, and being the leader. 111 means new beginnings. Gather your thoughts and make your wishes, then do what is required to peacefully make them come true.
As a therapist, I’m always working to find practical, easy-to-use and quick solutions to problems my clients are having. One of the conditions most appropriate to treat with quick techniques is anxiety. While working with my anxiety clients, I’ve found a five-minute technique that works particularly well and begins to show results immediately. As you’ve already guessed, this is the “Worst-Case Scenario” Strategy. You may have already worked with a variation on this technique
For most women, the purpose of wearing makeup is to look younger, not older. Ironically, although many popular cosmetic companies promise their products will make you look young, their long term effects often cause the exact opposite...advanced aging. Pure, natural, organic products are the best choice for makeup and skin care. But even with the best choices, women often make a few common mistakes that can easily be corrected with the following practical and new age beauty tips... Ways Your Makeup Could Be Aging You: 1.) Too much liner (mainly on the bottom of your eyes.)
Breastfeeding was a choice I made before my son was born, not because I personally did the research, but instead because I trusted what seemed to be words of wisdom from my husband as well as his rather large family of nursing mothers. Everyone did it. Every child turned out healthy. I am thankful to them all for their encouragement while nursing. But no one quite told me how long to breastfeed or how to quit when he got older. Why? I didn't know then, but now I realize that weaning is different for everyone and there is no real answer.
SATAN'S SOLILOQUY Because there is always more than one side to a story...Indeed, here is mine... (Note: This artsy piece is intended to invoke a sense of independence, freedom, and affirmation for the pagan reader, to continue in the development of his or her own individual path without feeling any guilt from the mainstream society. I hope it is seen in a positive light, the way it was meant to be when originally written.)
What is a a soul mate? Have you found your soul mate? Many of us go through life wondering these and many other questions regarding soul mates. Few of us ever find the true answers. A soul mate is someone that you feel an instant spiritual bond with. He or she can come in the form of a friend, lover, spouse, or family member. And because of that, you will come across more than one in your lifetime.
For years, I meditated, prayed, imagined, and even had vivid dreams of meeting my soul mate. I never knew what a twin flame was until I did research for a book I was writing, but had also hoped my soul mate would be my twin flame also. Although my true love was somewhat of a blur in other details, the look in his eyes, his face, and his overall demeanor was very clear, as he was the exact same as my distinct apparitions of him.
We all possess the power to heal ourselves spiritually. This ability has to be developed from within. Spiritual healers have always known that thinking negatively will always welcome more negativity. Physical disease can often be prevented with a regular affirmation of spiritual thinking. There are many methods of spiritual healing from a vast variety of cultures and spiritual origins. The one common denominator that always holds true is the basic ceremony for healing: -Place yourself in a relaxed setting.
There is no greater and more fulfilling feeling in life than to love and be loved. And human beings aren’t the only ones who are accounted for when it comes to that, as animals, plants and other forms of life thrive upon love or loving influences. Power, fortune, success, or any other human desire might be attractive, but at the end of the day, it means nothing without that one omnipotent, universal emotion.
When a product is good for your skin, that is wonderful. But when a product is good for your mind, body, and spirit, that is even more special, as you will know it because it will contain the best ingredients. When you apply moisturizing oil to your body, you are setting aside time to nourish your overall health and well being, which is very important in life.
Introduction As much as I have written about metaphysics and mysticism in the past, my analysis of the innate topic here actually defies many pundit arguments that they belong in those two categories. How do we save our world? Who is going to do it? Who is a threat to it? Are they the government or an affiliated form of organized intelligence?
Most people assume that the Bible is complete. Most people do not know about the substantial portion of the Bible that was removed by the Church, surprisingly with claims of heresy. This portion of the Bible is known as the Book of Enoch. The Book of Enoch became infamous at a particular point in history, for being a direct link between history and mythology. Theologians were less acceptable of the magical claims of this book than the usual testaments, solely because of its reference to fallen angels copulating with humanity.
If anyone googles "Stephanie Adams" they will find that I am the first Playboy Centerfold to come "out" as a lesbian...who eventually married a man and started a family. Is sexuality "fluid", something that is forever changing, never the same? I will elaborate more on that topic...Sexuality is indeed "fluid" and is not so easily defined...It is anything but black and white too, which is probably why the rainbow colors for the flag are appropriately fitting.
"From the depths of humanity's spirit, out of the heaven and hell within one's soul, I will rise above the ashes of the raging, fiery destruction caused by any and all, regenerating my own mind, body, and power to become greater than ever, a powerhouse of spiritual, celestial, and magical existence." - GODDESSY According to Ancient Greek mythology, a phoenix is an omnipotent bird that ete ally regenerates and is forever reborn. The phoenix is associated with the sun, and obtains its new life by rising above the ashes from the fire of its previous existence.
The Illuminati The Order of the Illuminati was a secret society whose name means "Enlightened Ones". The organization was founded on May 1, 1776 in Bavaria. The founder, was a former Jesuit and Professor of Canon Law at the University of Inglolstadt, Germany named Adam Weishaupt.
The Order of the Illuminati was a secret society whose name means "Enlightened Ones". That said, the original Illuminati were not the best of friends with the establishment. They looked beyond what they were told, because they could tell that there was more beyond. So why would anyone believe that the Illuminati, if they exist today, are the very establishment that they have so vigorously challenged?
THE NIGHT OF HALLOWEEN Twas the night of Halloween and all through the house, My loved ones were sleeping, my son and my spouse. The candles were lit on my altar with care, In hopes that great spirits soon would be there. My boys were all cozy and snug in their beds, While visions of jack-o-lante s danced in their heads. The doormen downstairs had no way to tell, That this city witch was casting a spell. The moon over the skyline, pure brilliance to show, Gave the lustre of magic to all traffic below. When, what to my wondering eyes should I see,r
TOP 10 QUIRKS AND PERKS OF GENEALOGY Upon discovering a few more interesting ancestors recently that include American patriots as well as European nobility, I thought I'd compose a few playful words about my newfound hobby of researching ancestral lineage, and hope that a few of you find it to be somewhat entertaining: 1.) You learn to recognize the sounds, patterns, and families of owls, since they tend to be up late carrying on just like you. 2.) One person you know you are not related to is "sleeping beauty", because most of the time you are awake doing research.
