What is a Lightworker?

Lightwork is healing. A Lightworker is a facilitator of healing for others who feels called to make the world a better place. Starting in the 1950’s, a large group of Lightworkers started to be born with a group purpose of teaching love, in answer to prayers for world peace. Lightworkers are very loving, sensitive, intuitive, often feeling different from others. Lightworkers are present in every field and profession, not just professional healing. Lightworkers are sometimes so giving, almost to the point of burnout. Self-care is not selfish and it makes it easier to fulfill our divine life purpose to be of service.

What is manifestation?

Manifestation is simply allowing what you desire to come to you. It works by putting a clear intention into the Universe. The Universe responds only to our thoughts and feelings, as well as the energy that is created from those. The Universe does not operate on a punishment/reward system. Rather, it always gives you what you think or feel about most. If you think positively, you create things in your life that are positive. If you are negative, you can guess what will happen. These concepts are related to the Law of Attraction. Whether you need time, health, money, creativity, friends, love, fun, travel, adventure, or anything else, ask and you will receive. If it doesn’t come right away, please trust that it is on its way. In fact, by believing what you desire already exists, you bring it about quicker. The spiritual truth is that it already exists.

Sometimes, we have blocks to receiving. Ask your angels to help you remove the blocks to receiving so that you can manifest your best life possible. Feelings are a stronger energy than thoughts, so engage in positive feeling besides positive thinking!

There are many Resources related to the principles of manifestation that you can explore for your own healing and benefit.

How is it that you are able to do readings at a distance via e-mail or telephone?

Whether I do readings in person or at a distance, I am connecting to energy, the life force that animates all living things. Energy follows intention. It is possible to tune into this energy at a distance. There are no time and space constraints when it comes to energy, so I do not have to be in the same room as you to provide you with an accurate reading. Have you ever had thoughts of someone and later when you talk to them, they say they were thinking about you too? You were sending out an energy vibration to that person. With your permission, I can connect to your own energy field using my intention. I ask the angels to allow this connection to be made, asking for only the messages that are for your highest good to come through.

Will I ever meet Mr. Right/Ms. Right?

The angels say, "Of course!" If you listen more closely, the angels will give you insights or messages about how to bring this about more easily. They will provide you with guidance about life changes that may lead to you meeting your Mr. Right or Ms. Right. Sometimes, these suggestions may seem unrelated to meeting a life partner, but it’s the angels working on your behalf. The Romance Angels can be called upon for assistance with any aspect of your romantic life.

What is my life purpose?

The angels always say that our life purpose is Love. But, the other piece is to do something for a living that makes your heart sing. If you’re being of service to others, you can feel the greatest joy. If you are not happy with your current vocation, you can ask the angels to gently show you the way to what is more in alignment with your true nature and with your heart, so that you can enjoy life more.

How often do you recommend getting a reading?

There really is no set rule. Always follow your own intuition, guidance, and angels’ advice about this matter.

How did you come up with the name Indigo Angel Bear for your business?

I have enjoyed the loving, protective energy of bears ever since I was young. The Bear has a reputation for being fierce and ferocious. But, in Native American teachings, the bear is about introspection and intuition, representing the receptive, female energy (think "women’s intuition. Introspection helps us to gain clarity about our lives).

I am an Indigo, part of a wave of children born to help bring integrity and peace to humanity, and to help others become aware of their purpose. Indigo scouts (the older Indigos), such as myself were born to pave the way. Indigos tend to be very psychic and intuitive. However, everyone has access to these spiritual gifts.

What types of angels exist? Many types!

Angels:

Every religion’s sacred texts mention angels. This information will provide you with a starting point. Even though angels are often classified into a hierarchy, I prefer to think of all groups of angels being important. Because angels and archangels tend to be the angels who work most closely with humans, I focus on these two groups.

Angels were created to help humankind, and to be messengers. Many levels of angels help and protect us. They understand us as humans, even though they have never lived on the Earth as humans. (There are two exceptions in the Archangel category, Metatron and Sandalphon, who both lived as human prophets before they ascended).

Angels as a group are closest to humanity, in our lives to comfort and guide us. There are different groups of angels designed to help us with various issues. In the book Angelspeake: A Guide by Barbara Mark and Trudy Griswold, it says that every thought or emotion has a corresponding angel (p. 25). So, if you need any quality of energy such as patience, strength, calmness, or motivation, you can call upon the corresponding angels to be with you (such as Angels of Patience, Angels of Strength, etc.).

Guardian Angels:

These are our personal angels who are assigned to us. They are always with us, but they respect our free will. They are here to help us with our life purpose, and to help with our other concerns. We just have to ask for the angels’ assistance. (I have read in a few books that the only time our angels will intervene without our asking is if we are in danger, and it’s not our time as of yet to leave the Earth plane).

Archangels:

Archangels are God’s messengers, illustrating the Divine’s love for humanity. Archangels help us to deliver messages to other angels or to other people. Archangels help us very quickly.

They can help with our healing, if we give them permission to intercede. Archangel Michael is a great archangel to work with for protection and help with your life purpose. Archangel Raphael is a great healer of people and animals with his green healing light. I just name a couple of archangels to get you started on your research.

Do you believe in Faeries?

Yes, I do believe! I’m not crazy either! If you don’t believe, you should—spoken like a true fan of the faeries! The faeries are nature’s guardian angels and caretakers of Mother Earth, part of the elemental realm. Each animal, plant, and even rock has a guardian angel that watches over it. The faeries remind humans to stay in touch with our inner child, so that we can remember the sense of magic, fun, and playfulness that we once had while younger.

The faeries are in tune with the emotions of plants, and those of people. They like to help us with our own healing and to find happiness and to manifest our dreams. The faeries rejoice when we take care of the planet, doing such things as recycling, cleaning up the trash in nature, and avoiding chemical pollutants, especially pesticides. Stories and mythology abound concerning mischievous faeries, but I believe that the faeries and elementals (elves, gnomes, mermaids, etc.) were made with love.

The energy of the faeries is light, airy, and playful. They enjoy sparkling garden décor as well as backyard wildlife. It is a joy to work with them in healing and manifestation work.

Who are the Ascended Masters?

The Ascended Masters are great spiritual guides and master teachers who once lived as humans on this planet. So, they have compassion for us. Coming from both ancient and modern times, including many different cultures, religions, and civilizations, popular examples include Mother Mary, Kuan Yin, Saint Therese, El Morya, Ganesh, and Buddha.

These loving, positive Masters have many lessons to teach, helping us with our problems and staying on track with our life purpose. They tend to see the bigger picture of our lives and how we are connected to other souls. They have access to knowledge about our life goals and future. They provide us with protection, comfort, clarity, and love. You may find that a particular Master resonates with you. This can change depending on where you are in your life path and your needs.

What are Spirit Guides?

Everyone has a spirit guide while living here on Earth. Before we are born, we meet with a spirit who will be our constant helper while we learn our lessons. All spirit guides have had at least one lifetime on Earth, so our spirit guides will be able to understand and empathize with us. Similar to a life coach working with us in the spiritual realm to help us fulfill our life purpose, they have studied and memorized our life plans. Spirit guides also can be in more than one place at a time. They can monitor us while doing their other spirit realm activities. Spirit guides honor our free will, so they do not live our lives for us. They can give us warnings, advice or guidance, but it is up to us how we want to proceed.

I prefer allowing my clients to discover their own spirit guides. I tend to work more with angels in my readings. You can ask your spirit guide his or her name. They are not offended, however, if you talk to them without knowing their name, or even if you make one up for them. One option is to do some sort of exercise to see if you can intuit the name of your guide. The first name you hear is usually the name.

What are power animals?

Before modern times, we tended to see ourselves as a part of nature, not separate. Native cultures believe that all living things are significant and interconnected. Earlier, we believed that the natural and supernatural were inseparable with no boundaries between humans and animals.

Have you ever noticed that you have an affinity for a certain animal? This connection helps us to learn lessons. These animal energies are considered to be power or "medicine." Animals can teach us many things. We just have to be open to their lessons. It helps to have a reference book to look up information about animals’ characteristics, habits, and their spiritual significance.

What are Indigo, Crystal, and Rainbow Children?

Note: I believe that all children and people are special. This information is intended for informational purposes about the New Children.

INDIGO CHILDREN

The Indigo children are a group born in high concentrations starting in the mid-1970’s. Most Indigos are in their teens and 20’s today. But, many Indigos incarnated earlier than the 1970’s, in order to pave the way for future generations. These older Indigos are often referred to as Indigo scouts. I was born in the early 1970’s, so I consider myself to be a scout.

Indigos are named after the color of the third eye or sixth chakra in the human energy system associated with intuition and spiritual awareness. Indigos tend to be born to Lightworkers, often with highly psychic and sensitive qualities.

I have seen many questionnaires so that you can determine whether you’re Indigo. In lieu of a set of questions, I have listed a set of common traits of Indigos:

  • Leadership and warrior qualities or energies
  • Here to help others with life purpose
  • Here to usher out the Old Energy and old systems or ways of doing things
  • Confrontational and challenging to the status quo
  • Creative, right-brained, visual
  • In tune with the higher realms. Some consider this to be a clinical based attention deficit
  • Resonate more with peace, cooperation, and love than competition and greed
  • Have angst or anger about the state of the world today
  • Frustrated with institutions such as churches, governments, and corporations
  • Have an energy of integrity and honesty and notice when others are not of similar energy
  • Concerned with ethical behavior of others more than others’ age, title, or status
  • Can’t shut down the inner truth detector and knows when others are lying to them.
  • Here on planet to make a difference and eradicate suffering such as war, pollution, and poverty.
  • Have no qualms about speaking up when feel they lied to, even to authority figures
  • Feel very different at a deep level
  • Labeled as strange and often, feel don’t fit into regular society
  • Super sensitive with difficulties dissociating from environment
  • Some use chemicals at times in foods and substances to reduce sensitivity to energies, etc.
  • Sensitive to chemicals such as food colorings, additives and the like

CRYSTAL CHILDREN

Crystal Children or Crystals are named after the pretty minerals and stones that are in the Earth. They are here to bring healing to others. Crystals were born starting in 1995 with a tendency to be born to Indigos and Lightworkers. Just like with Indigos, there are scouts who are older who came to pave the way for the next group of children. The Crystal scouts were born in the 1970-1980’s. Here’s a list of traits of Crystal Children:

  • Angelic, loving, and heart-centered without the anger or temper of some Indigos
  • Drawn to people with open hearts, staying away from mean people and children
  • Old souls
  • Connected to nature with love for animals and all living things
  • Prefer to be outdoors
  • Affectionate and generous
  • Super sensitive, even more so than the Indigos to chemicals
  • Enjoy eating fruits and vegetables
  • Tend to speak telepathically for ease and efficiency with tendency to speak audibly later than their peers
  • Sometimes misdiagnosed as having Autism, but unlike autistic children, Crystal Children love to be connected to others
  • Can be talented in many areas such as music, art, etc.
  • Physically agile with play and sports
  • Enjoy playing with items found in nature instead of electronics
  • Have an affinity for actual rocks and stones
  • Natural healers without taking any courses
  • Psychic with ability to see and communicate with angels and deceased loved ones

RAINBOW CHILDREN

The Rainbow Children are a bit rare currently, so there is very little information about this newest group. Rainbow Children carry the healing energy of the rainbow, similar to the human chakra system. There are seven major chakras in the body that correspond to our various organs and glands. Each major chakra is a different color of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet). Chakras have energy that helps to maintain our health on all levels—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Doing things such as eating healthy, exercising, being in full spectrum light, doing yoga, or meditating helps chakras stay balanced and energized. By receiving energy work such as Reiki, this brings the rainbow energy into your being.

More Rainbow Children will be born starting in 2015 as the Crystal Children begin to have children of their own. The Rainbow scouts are starting to be born though. Here’s a list of traits of the Rainbow Children:

  • Energy of teachers whereas the Crystal Children have the energy of healers
  • All about service to others
  • Born into places that have love and peace already
  • Born on planet for first time without karma into loving families without strife
  • Have energy of unconditional love similar to dolphins who also have rainbow energy

What is Ascension?

Ascension is an evolutionary process of the planet moving from fear to love. The Earth is detoxifying, but it doesn’t mean the world is going to end anytime soon!

Lightworkers are here to assist in this process. Every person also is ascending with the planet. There are different levels or stages of ascension that each person goes through. Each person is at a different stage. Each level, is important, but without any level being more advanced or better than the other. The ascension process can create many changes in our physical bodies. Many self-help techniques are available to assist your body. It’s important more than ever before to rest, relax, and take good care of yourself. You can ask the angels for the methods of self-care that would best suit you. (Please, visit a licensed health professional, if you are in need of medical attention).

The planet is vibrating at higher frequency all the time, so many shifts will be occurring. The dense energies here on planet Earth are becoming lighter. Some feel like time is quickening. Others can feel their thoughts and ideas manifesting quicker into reality.

I felt guided to share the basics of ascension here on my website. The more people who are consciously aware of this process, the more evolutionary progress we can make together as the Earth moves towards paradise. If you’re reading this, you chose to be here to help usher in the New Earth.

 What’s the difference between psychic readings and angel readings?

I tend to see angel readings as a form of healing work. I don’t like to tell you your future, not to say that all psychic readings foretell the future. The nice thing about angel readings is that all of the messages are very loving. That is how you can tell the information is coming from the angels. Both types of readings can be healing and valuable, but I myself don’t consider my work to be psychic.

What is Mediumship?

Our souls are eternal. When we pass we go to a place called the Other Side or our Home, a very beautiful, happy place. Our deceased loved ones, including pets visit us from time to time there to say hello to us. They want us to know that they are well and that they love us.

Our deceased loved ones’ essence is a form of energy. It is possible to connect with this energy to communicate with our deceased loved ones. They leave us signs that they are with us. I have heard certain songs on the radio that remind me of my deceased grandma, and it often occurred right after I was thinking about her. I notice that our deceased loved ones will manipulate the electricity in our homes to say hello. Sometimes, when I think about my deceased grandma, the lights in the living room flash on and off. But, each spirit will have a signature sign to communicate with you, and these signs can even include scents (such as cigar smoke, if the person smoked when alive, or flowers, perfume, etc.). If it is a loving spirit of your deceased loved one, you will feel warmth and love emanating from the spirit.

Deceased loved ones do not want to alarm us, or scare us, contrary to popular movies and television shows. Mediumship has become popularized by television shows such as “Medium” and “Ghost Whisperer.” However, Hollywood has taken creative license to have shows that are entertaining in order to draw viewers. When deceased loved ones begin communicating with us, it can be startling at first, but once the initial surprise is gone, we should feel a loving presence. We can ask them to come to us in a way that doesn’t scare us. I notice they, along with my spirit guides and angels like to come to me when I am asleep, in a more relaxed state. If I want to get rest, I will tell them to meet up with me another time because I need my sleep.

Mediumship is simply the practice of communicating with deceased loved ones. In my opinion, this is a work of the heart. As I mentioned, there is nothing scary about it. I use Archangel Michael as my protector and guide with this work, so only loving energies are allowed to come through in your reading.

I do not tend to work with earthbound spirits, another term for ghosts. Ghosts still need our compassion and love as they are stuck in between this world and the loving, healing Other Side. But, I choose to work with deceased loved ones who have already transitioned into the Light.

Each medium works differently, but my own work is very down-to-earth and conversational. I converse with the deceased loved ones just as if I was talking with them in a café or in my living room. I’m very grateful that they allow me to be their messenger to assist others.

Although they have passed on, deceased loved ones are still very much alive, but they now are in spirit. Deceased loved ones will retain their personalities and other traits they had while living. Often, the manner in which your own deceased loved ones communicate with you now will come through in readings, so that you understand how they say “hello” to you.

Mediumship is meant to facilitate others’ self-healing processes, bringing peace to those left behind. If it is your intention to connect with a deceased loved one in a reading, please let me know, but do not tell me the specifics such as name or manner of death. I want to bring forth the clearest reading as possible for you.

Mediumship, by the way, is an optional aspect of a reading or session with me. If you have this as an intention, please let me know prior to our session and I’m happy to include this into your Phone or Email Reading. I cannot make any guarantees for contacting specific deceased loved ones in a reading. I do not control the process, as I’m just a messenger.
