Understanding your goals to help you achieve them.
Creating
When I take a deep breath and breathe the air that surrounds me, all that I am inhaling is lust for creation. I found myself learning what my biggest passion in life is. Sometimes people are young knowing what their passion is and they continue to work on it daily. Sometimes people are well into their adulthood when they find what they are truly passionate about. For me, I knew when I was younger I fell in love with art and creating. When I was younger, I would write screenplays, dance, write poetry, and all sorts of that realm. I just did not pursue art when I become a teen because I felt like it was a joke. I felt that since I was not good at it, I should not be doing it. That was my biggest mistake. I think the most important thing in doing anything you are passionate about whether you are good or not is doing it so consistently that you will undoubtedly become somewhat decent at it.

How to Achieve Spiritual Wellness Through Tarot
What is a tarot reading all about? What can you expect from a reading? I hear all the time how people are afraid of getting a reading, or afraid of what they will learn. There is nothing to be afraid in a tarot reading as long as you are in active participation in your own life and willing to identify what is either helping you or holding you back from achieving your goals. I am an intuitive empath and this allows me to see deeper into a seeker and identify past and present influences and better address any hidden aspects of the situation in need of clarification. I will share with you my experiences as a tarot practitioner and offer answers to the questions I hear most often. I will also share some methods I incorporate to help my clients achieve spiritual wellness. As an intuitive empath, I use intuition to pinpoint the source cause of an aspect and empathy to identify the true feelings of everyone involved. The combination of these abilities allows me to offer better guidance and solutions to the problems my clients may be facing. Clairaudience and channeling between myself and the inner spirit of my seeker allows me to communicate on a spiritual level and helps me to identify sources of trauma that my client may not even remember as it generally comes from early childhood. Many tarot practitioners possess this same set of gifts and others and use them to better assist a seeker. My primary focus when conducting a reading is to aid my client in the achievement of goals, spiritual growth and attaining inner peace.

Why the F*^% Am I Here?
The age old question, “Why am I here?” Its variations: “What am I meant to do with my life?” “What’s my purpose?” “Where will I end up?” As human beings, we ask ourselves this countless times throughout our lives. We change jobs, leave relationships, move across the country, or even the globe, searching for the answer to this question. There’s a deep yearning within all of us, whether we completely realize it or not, to live a life of purpose. To feel as though we’re making some kind of difference. To make an impact in some way, somehow during our existence. This can be a guiding light for those who pay attention to it, leading the way to one’s passion and bringing a deeper, more fulfilling sense of happiness to life. So, how do we get there? How do we find our calling?

The Rarity of Snow
Tuesday morning I awoke to a blanket of snow. This was something very unexpected. Here in the UK when snow falls, it does not promise to stick. In the region I live in, the snow seemed to keep missing us over the last few months. So, when I saw that it was to snow, I ignored it. I went about my morning keeping the blinds down, ignoring the world outside. That was until I glanced out the bathroom window and saw the hazy gleam of white. I rushed to the spare room window and gazed intently out at the white expanse before me. The snow was here and it was falling thick and fast.

Introduction of ME
Welcome to my first post and story to introduce myself. I know boring right? I guess that will depend on your opinion of how you find me on first glance. My name is Camron and I have always dreamt of being a person who creates the ripples of change in the world. My aspirations of being involved with politics, theater, writing, and society have been a growing desire within the past two years after going through my first year of college. These two desires have brought me here to Vocal to create a starting point that I can jump from.

The Blindness of Self-Doubt
Student It’s around about that murky time after University. The bars are still open and the jaeger is still cheap but the atmosphere has changed. You still call yourself a graduate, it’s a title you hold on to tightly. However, no one seems to be answering your C.V. You watch as it ricochets back and forth through cyberspace to different graduate scheme websites. It’s in this time that you lose that certain sense of purpose. You’re sleepwalking while friends are flying. The regimented sense of certainty is lost as soon as you stumble up that stage and your clammy hands clutch that certificate. With a deep breath you realise that now you have a choice.

Sage Smudging 101
Sage is a sacred plant that was widely used among Indigenous Americans in spirit and energy practices over 2,000 years ago. I always heard of sage and its uses to clear out negative energies and set intentions for positives energies to flow into a space and after doing some research I decided to do a sage smudging of my own. From my research, I learned that the burning of the sage sticks and the smoke it creates acts as a vacuum to dispel and release negative energy from a home, office or intended creative space. I purchased my sage from The Phoenix and the Dragon bookstore here in Atlanta. The shop is a good resource for beginners and the employee who checked me out noted that after I burn the sage I should do something I enjoy because this invites in the positive energies I wanted to create. There are different types of sage and each is said to be used for different purposes and I chose the white sage. The most interesting fact I learned about sage smudging was from a Chopra.com article revealing that the goal of the ceremony is to clear the space of lingering energy that is "different from what you may be intending for that space." That confirmed that a sage smudging was a good way to kick off my new year and new outlook on how I will reach all my goals this year.

The Four Stages of My Interests
I have a lot of interests, most of them I do and most of them I would like to do. I have a huge passion for story writing and creating videos, but I didn't manage to go far with those passions. I have four stages when it comes to interests. Observe, experiment, practice, and act. It's an unconscious thing for me, but I was aware of the routine I have done every time I have an interest.

Too Old to Say Whatever, Too Young to Stay in One Place
Remember when you were 12 years old? Really think about it. 12 years old. The biggest stress day-to-day was hoping your crush with the J-Bieb haircut would pop up on your MSN and rushing home so you didn't miss your favourite rerun on Disney Channel. Remember those days? Where you didn't have to figure your life out because you had time. You knew your next step: high school and then university. Didn't know what you would study, just knew that you would. You thought that everything would fall exactly into place and by 22, you would be the successful adult fashionista you see in movies running the world.

Who I Really Am...
How do you know who are you are? I can tell you that I sure didn’t know until the beginning of this year. I am 22 years of age and I've always lived this life I was comfortable with. I did the same thing every weekend, with the same people, coming home at the same time and working the same job, which most women at my age did not do. I was comfortable. This wasn’t what I wanted my life to be. I always imagined traveling, taking risks, starting my own business, and meeting new people, but I only allowed myself to do what I was used to and didn’t know how to go about the things I wanted to do. In result of this, I was very stuck in my comfort zone and wasn’t able to bring myself to start what I really wanted.
