The superstition seems to arise from the belief that mirrors don’t just reflect your image; they hold bits of your soul. That belief led people in the old days of the American South to cover mirrors in a house when someone died, lest their soul be trapped inside.” What can Creator tell us about mirrors and the widespread belief in their hazards?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs246 views0 answers0 votes“Knock on wood.” Pappas writes, “This phrase is almost like a verbal talisman, designed to ward off bad luck after tempting fate: ‘Breaking that mirror didn’t bring me any trouble, knock on wood.’ The fixation on wood may come from old myths about good spirits in trees or from an association with the Christian cross. Similar phrases abound in multiple languages, suggesting that the desire not to upset a spiteful universe is very common.” What can Creator tell us about “knocking on wood?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs240 views0 answers0 votes“Cross your fingers.” Pappas writes: “Those wishing for luck will often cross one finger over another, a gesture that’s said to date back to early Christianity. The story goes that two people used to cross index fingers when making a wish, a symbol of support from a friend to the person making the wish. (Anything associated with the shape of the Christian cross was thought to be good luck.) The tradition gradually became something people could do on their own.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs202 views0 answers0 votes“Throwing salt over your shoulder.” Salt is thought to create a spiritual barrier that evil spirits cannot cross, or find difficult to cross. Many magicians and sorcerers use it to create “magic circles” with the thought that if they stay inside, they will be protected from the very demons they conjure. What can Creator tell us about the spiritual properties of salt, if any?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs257 views0 answers0 votes“Don’t step on a crack!” This is from artsandculture.google.com, an article entitled 18 Superstitions from Around the World: “As with mirrors, cracks—in the earth, on a sidewalk, or almost anywhere—have long been seen as portals to the realm of the supernatural, for both good and ill. To step on those cracks might be to invite or release unwelcome spirits into the world ready to do one harm.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs201 views0 answers0 votesSuperstitions may seem silly and innocuous at first glance, but some people worry about them a great deal. Some to the point of having genuine panic attacks if they discover they violated one. How does someone get in this state? Does subconscious mind control contribute? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs265 views0 answers0 votesEastern Europeans, it seems, have a much longer list of superstitions that concern them than those of the West. Does the fact these countries have been war-torn and decidedly less free have anything to do with this? A woman who came here from Ukraine twenty years ago, won’t use leftovers “because it’s pig food” even though she no longer has a pig, so leftovers end up in the garbage. She worries about knives left out because they foment discord when unsheathed. And anything used she purchases she leaves outside for “cleansing,” regardless of whether rain is in the forecast or not. As a result, more garbage is created when it inevitably rains. Yet there is simply no talking her out of any of these worries or practices. What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs224 views0 answers0 votesA great many superstitions seem to revolve around an obsession with evil, and warding it off, especially. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol will do more to protect you and your loved ones than slavish adherence to timeworn superstitions, even and especially if there is something to them?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs283 views0 answers0 votesAre there mechanistic differences that govern bad habits versus good habits?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Subconscious Mind386 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “I’d like to know what my soul purpose is in this lifetime, what does it require of me to do, is there anything in particular? What I’m trying to say is that I feel my soul purpose is on a spiritual path in some way, possibly healing, but I’d like clarification in what it desires or its purpose?” What can we tell her?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Divine Guidance381 views0 answers0 votesAre there Chinese New Year practices that are inherently spiritual or in alignment?

Since so many people feel so powerless and helpless these days, can Creator share how exploring this topic of intention can really help them acquire the mental tools they need to both find and engage those “levers that make things happen” successfully?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Limiting Beliefs316 views0 answers0 votesPrayer is mostly thought of as a religious notion. But in fact, isn’t it really just exercising the mind to shape and launch intentions targeted at an aspect of ourselves whose charter is to fulfill those intentions? Would it be helpful to think of the divine realm and even God as extensions of our own mind? In the same way we conceive of having a subconscious that serves us, and frustrates us at times, isn’t God serving a similar role, and is every bit as real and connected to us as our own subconscious is, a part of us?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Limiting Beliefs307 views0 answers0 votesWould it be helpful to think of learning the art of “intention shaping and energizing,” or prayer, in the same way a quadriplegic needs to acquire a whole set of otherwise unneeded skills to live a life everyone else takes for granted? We have been compromised and debilitated and disabled mentally by the interlopers almost to the same degree a quadriplegic is physically disabled. In other words, are we as mentally disabled compared to our light being selves, as a quadriplegic is to their pre-injury physical selves? And would we be served by looking to those who overcome such adversities for inspiration?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Limiting Beliefs289 views0 answers0 votes
