  • Weekly Astrological Forecast for April 20 through April 26, 2026

    April 20 through April 26, 2026

    Venus and Uranus will move into Gemini this week, heightening our mental powers and encouraging us to seek out more information before we charge headlong into new enterprises. Monday’s Gemini Moon will set the stage as it inspires us to review our current thoughts and make a solid plan for the future. The next three days, Tuesday through Thursday, we’ll be operating under the influence of a Cancer Moon. This could slow our movements considerably, as the Universe asks us to go inward to retrieve our spiritual and emotional centers, then outward to interact with our loved ones in more loving and authentic ways. Venus will enter the sign of Gemini on Thursday, and its message to us is, “What do we love? What do we care about?” The Moon moves into Leo on Friday, encouraging our generosity to others as well as promoting self-love and nurturing. Put everything else aside and see what needs to be done to ensure we are operating at the highest level possible. Uranus will move into Gemini on Saturday, bringing new ideas and realizations over the next four months. Just when we thought we knew everything about everything, this planet will open our eyes to brand new options!

  • The Everyday Clairvoyant: What’s Your Gift? (And Does It Help You Clean the House?)

    The Everyday Clairvoyant: What's Your Gift? (And Does It Help You Clean the House?)
    by Cyndi Dale

    (Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

    I see pictures for a living.

    That’s not the same as creating them; I can’t so much as draw a stick figure. Nor is it equivalent to collecting art or hanging photographs or scanning MRIs. It’s a little more, well, complex than that.

    I’m a clairvoyant. I see images in my mind that inform me about reality. If you were to ask me what you ate for breakfast, I might watch an entire filmstrip of you in a chef hat being Julia Child or Jean-Luc Albin (okay, he’s a pastry guy, but you might be into croissants.) Based on your kitchen antics, I’d most likely make a pretty good guess at what you whipped up.

    Or maybe I’d envision a hen and deduct that you ate eggs. I might even visualize a Starbuck’s drive-through, which suits my idea of haute cuisine. Whatever the case, I perceive images that are literal, descriptive, or metaphorical; from the past, present, or potential future; or appear as shapes, colors, and symbols. From these, I construct and construe answers to various life questions, which provide the fodder for my work as an energy healer, intuitive consultant, and author.

    I’ve shared images with more than thirty thousand individuals and countless groups. That’s a lot of pictures—and questions, which preceded my answers. These questions constitute life’s major concerns, which always fall into one of three categories: relationship, destiny (work), and balance (health). See if you can think of something important that doesn’t edge into one or several of these baskets.

    Will I ever get married? Do I have a soul mate? Is s/he having an affair? Are affairs always bad? Do I have spiritual guides? Did Atlantis ever exist? What happens during miscarriage? Abortion? How do I deal with an abusive partnership? Are there ghosts? Do animals have souls? You guessed it; these are RELATIONSHIP questions.

    What’s my purpose? Is it bad to go bankrupt? Did I ever live before? How might past lives affect my current life? What are my specific spiritual gifts? Why we there so many people on this planet right now? How can I make more money? Will I ever win the lottery? Is peace on earth possible? Here we are in the land of DESTINY.

    Why am I sick? Why is there illness on this planet? Can entities cause problems? What are the keys to being healthier? How do I deal with stuck emotions? Bad beliefs? Can I ever really become who I want to be? Here we are in BALANCE.

    In my book, >Everyday Clairvoyant: Extraordinary Answers to Finding Love, Destiny, and Balance in Your Life, I share the most burning, typical, and stellar questions I’ve heard, such as the ones listed. I provide a summative response, crafted from twenty-five years in my trade as a clairvoyant. I also talk about what being a clairvoyant means in my “real life,” for that’s where I show up every day: at home, in relationships, going grocery shopping, mothering, and even cleaning the house. I share all of it to underscore one main point:

    Even though my profession isn’t listed on IRS forms—or any other, for that matter, I’m no different than you.

    What does that mean but that YOU are as “weird” as I AM.

    Words like ESP, supernatural, channeling, telepathy, psychic, shamanic, empathic, clairvoyant, and paranormal aren’t only descriptive of “different people,” but of ALL people. We are ALL intuitively gifted. We are ALL amazingly, brilliantly, and sometimes annoyingly, psychic.

    We are all born with psychic abilities. “Psychic” simply refers to the ability to gather, decipher, and generate information that moves quicker than the speed of light.

    While a lot of people don’t like to admit that they are psychic—or even see a benefit to it— it’s a great thing to be. When moving really fast, you don’t have to obey the traffic cops of the Universe. You can slip through walls, bypassing obstacles. You can enjoy a cup of coffee before it’s even served, which is pretty important if you need an instant shot of caffeine. A thought doesn’t even need to halt at a stop sign the way that sensory, “earth bound” information does. You can receive knowledge from the future, awareness from the past, and make it all work for you right now.

    Whether or not we know it, our spirits communicate through psychic activity much more often than through sensory means. It’s just easier. If you know something important is going to happen tomorrow, why not get ready today? If you can disappear a tumor before it happens, why not play doctor right now? If you can “reach out and touch someone” through psychic e-mail versus sensory snail mail, why not go for the time advantage?

    Clairvoyance is only one of the many psychic gifts available to us all. When teaching classes, I share that there are eleven major universal gifts and a twelfth that is unique to each person. Each gift is housed in a chakra, an energy center that connects the psychic with the sensory.

    I work with a twelve-chakra system, which is described in my book, The Complete Book of Chakra Healing, but I also reference these energy centers and corresponding gifts in Everyday Clairvoyant, for one main reason: the key to enjoying satisfying relationships, living on destiny, and being balanced, is to uncover and embrace your true spiritual gifts.

    Which gift is incipient to you? Scan this list, which outlines a couple of ways to label each gift and corresponding chakra, and see if anything pops out:

    • First chakra: Physical empathy and manifesting
    • Second chakra: Feeling empathy and creativity
    • Third chakra: Mental empathy (clairsentience) and administrative ability
    • Fourth chakra: Relational empathy and healing
    • Fifth chakra: Verbal empathy (clairaudience, channeling, telepathy) and communicating
    • Sixth chakra: Clairvoyance, visioning, strategizing
    • Seventh chakra: Spiritual empathy and prophecy
    • Eighth chakra: Shamanism
    • Ninth chakra: Soul empathy and harmonizing (representing world causes)
    • Tenth chakra: Nature empathy and sensitivity to the environment
    • Eleventh chakra: Force sympathy and leadership
    • Twelfth chakra: Unique to you

    Know that whatever gifts you have, they aren’t to be used in a vacuum or “solo.” Our strongest gifts—each and every one of them—support our destiny or spiritual purpose. You could say, “They help us help others.” Besides being a clairvoyant, I am also a communicator. I therefore combine my sixth chakra clairvoyance with a fifth chakra communication skill in order to teach and write about my vision for the world.

    Our gifts also impact our relationships. Being both visual and verbal, I relate to others these ways. I notice how someone wears a hat, eats a sandwich, moves his or her head. I respond to what I perceive. And I talk. A lot. Not for me, the strong, silent type. I’d be bored silly.

    As well, our chakras and corresponding gifts affect our health. Each chakra is based in a bodily locale and connects to our physical self through a specific endocrine gland. As a fifth and sixth chakra person, I have to nourish the glands associated with these chakras: the thyroid and pituitary glands. If I don’t, I’ll get sick. I also participate in fifth and sixth chakra activities in order to burn off stress. For instance, movies are a great sixth chakra escape. Know what works for a fifth chakra person? Talking is a good start. (The problem is it’s hard to combine these two without getting kicked out of a theatre.)

    In the end, we can’t separate ourselves from our gifts. The “paranormal” isn’t something outside of ourselves. We are “para” or beyond “normal” ALL the time. I might sit in a chair all day and see pictures for a living. But I also interweave my abilities—my psychic self—into and through everything about me.

    Even my mothering.

    My friends can testify to the fact that my youngest son would never have survived childhood if I didn’t have “eyes in the back of my head.” I think back to a remark made by a friend of mine after I’d been on the phone with her for a while.

    “Did you know that you saved Gabe’s life three times in the last few minutes?” She asked.

    I pondered the question. I hadn’t even seen Gabe for a while, although I did remember punctuating the house with a few “marching orders” called out to him, sight unseen.

    “What do you mean?” I asked.

    “Well, first you told him to stop tying the dog’s tail onto the curtain rod, which could have fallen off and beamed him. Then you kept him from playing Spiderman on the wall over the glass tabletop with all the sharp edges. Lastly you made sure he didn’t turn the bathtub into a swimming pool and nosedive in.”

    I did do all that—from a different room, unconsciously tapping into my clairvoyance.

    Having mastered the fine art of psychic mothering, I’ve set myself the goal of psychic housecleaning. Wouldn’t it be grand, to imagine the house picked up and have it so? To envision the dogs’ food bowls full, the guinea pig’s cage scrubbed out, the cat litter changed, and presto?

    I’ll work on it and let you know when I’ve figured it out. Maybe I’ll even invent a computer with psychic command functions or kitchen appliances that make the bread and bake it with a single thought. And perhaps I’ll visualize something even more grand, like peace on earth. Because if I know anything, I know this:

    Underneath it all, we are spirits, embodied so as to engage the everyday world toward a single, vital goal: We are here to create more love on this planet.

    And we have the gifts to do it.

  • Double Vision: Is Strong Connection to Former Boss Rooted in Past Lives?

    I had a boss at my last job that I felt a special spiritual connection to. This was a brotherly type of bond, never romantic. I've since been laid off from that job, which was quite emotional for both of us. Ever since that day, I've had very intense, vivid dreams in which the two of us are very close. In fact, one night I dreamed of him and the next day I received an email from him apologizing for not keeping in touch and asking me to stay in contact. I really want to know why I feel so deeply connected to this very sweet man. Do you think this is past life related or that we have more karma in this life to finish? Your input is very much appreciated. Thank you!

    S.

    Astrea:

    When we feel close to someone we've loved well in past lives, parting can be truly awful whether we're romantically involved or not. When you're used to seeing your brother every day, NOT seeing him can be very sad and emotionally difficult.

    Both of you have the same feelings; he dreams of you often too. People in dreams always do things they wouldn't or couldn't do in real life. That's one of the main purposes of dreams. Often I have dreams of my close friends wherein we never speak but I wake up feeling like we've had long conversations.

    Sometimes the people we dream about represent other people, but I think you're truly visiting each other in these dreams. You see each other there because you can no longer see each other every day at work. Your connection is strong because it's been lots of different connections over many incarnations and past lives. He's been your father, brother, lover and friend over and over again. That's one of the reasons you two hit it off so well.

    What you're experiencing in your dream life is what Carlos Castaneda called Being in Dreaming, and most likely, your former boss is experiencing the same thing. This would explain why he sent that email to you the day after you had that intense dream about him. He probably had either the same dream or the same sort of dream about you.

    He misses you to pieces, and the two of you still have Karma together, so you should try to see one another more in real life if that's possible. I know people are busy and forever scrambling to stay on top of all they have to do, but it's so important for the two of you to keep your connection going.

    If he is the kind of person with whom you can discuss these kinds of spiritual experiences, please do it! He's confused about his feelings for you too, especially with these dreams coming more and more often. The longer you don't talk about this, the more likely it is that you'll drift apart rather than together.

    True friendship is difficult enough to find these days, and people we can trust are few and far between. If you bring up these dreams and feelings, he'll be relieved, and you can deepen your relationship to whatever degree you both desire.

    To all of you who feel these intense kinds of connections to others, if the other person is at all open to discussing the nature of your bond, initiate that conversation! It's never disappointing to pursue these feelings. Besides, you'll find out a lot, not only about the other person but about your own Karma too.

    *****

    Susyn:

    Many people develop close connections with their coworkers because they typically spend most of their waking hours with them. Even before you were laid off, there was a deep connection between the two of you.

    It can be quite traumatic to experience a sudden change in your life such as the loss of a job in addition to losing regular contact with your friends at work. A change this big can certainly affect your subconscious and hence your dreams.

    As you prepare to move into a new phase of your life, there will be a part of you that wants to hold on. If this friendship is strong, you will continue to be a part of each other's lives. This transition may be awkward at first because no matter what happens, you no longer have regular contact with each other.

    As when we graduate from grade school, high school or college, it's natural to leave many people behind as our lives evolve. We may stay in contact with some but most fade into the background. If this is a past life connection or there is karma to finish, as you suggest, then the relationship will continue even if it takes a different form.

    Because it's rare to find such a strong connection these days, you'll want to nurture this relationship through this transition and continue to keep in regular contact. There is no reason not to continue your friendship unless there are other circumstances you haven't mentioned that could make doing so complicated or difficult.

    The fact that you had a dream about him and then heard from him the next day through email affirms that he is also feeling the loss of your relationship. This is natural given your deep bond. The experience of thinking or dreaming of a person only to hear from or run into them a day or two later is remarkably common. These are usually people who are destined to touch our lives in important ways.

    It's quite possible that the two of you shared a past life together, as it sounds like you were drawn to each other from the start. We can usually identify past life connections very quickly based on the sense of familiarity or the deep feelings we have for them right from the start.

    If you are interested in exploring the past lives you may have shared together or learning more about why you are so strongly connected in this lifetime, you could seek out a psychic versed in the art of past life recall. In the mean time, you can just appreciate the fact that this sweet friend came into your life, filled a very special place in your heart, and wants to stay connected to you.

    Astrea:

    Many times in life we hear, "You will always have what you NEED, but not necessarily what you WANT." Your spirit must have needed to experience the feeling of leaving your human body, and the suggestion in the next chapter of Sylvia Brown's book was all it took to get you there.

    Even though you hadn't read it yet, your SOUL recognized the title of that chapter as something it had been seeking, and your soul, knowing that you had that reference to read after your experience, got with it and out you went!

    While I don't usually recommend her books, Sylvia Brown has a wide reaching and powerful effect on lots of people. A Gemini like you would be able to relate easily to her writing and put it to good use. Synchronicity - you gotta love it!

    I like your description of "getting caught." That's exactly what it feels like, isn't it? One minute you're free and hovering above the room, and the next minute, ZAP! back down into your corporeal form you go!

    As a little kid, I loved that "feeling of return." With practice, most of the time we can control that event, but sometimes, when our physical ears hear a distracting noise or something else occurs to knock us back into reality, back we go. With practice you will be able to control your return better.

    I find it interesting that you were visiting your mother-in-law and not someone in your own genetic family. Evidently, you and your husband got married for reasons that are even deeper than love. His family's interest in "psychic stuff" will nurture your children in such matters and help them to grow into their own abilities.

    You'll never have to be concerned that when your daughter visits them, she'll be discouraged from exploring her own psychic life and power. My parents encouraged me to develop my psychic senses in a time when it wasn't nice to even discuss such things in public. Heck, it's STILL not considered a great topic at the dinner table in some families!

    Your kids will get to talk about it ALL and ask questions and read and study. This is going to give them such an edge in life! Talk with your husband about how you want to present this to your kiddos, so that you are united in your approach and ready to tell them their experiences are all natural and okay.

    A word or two of warning: Geminis often have difficulty staying grounded in REAL LIFE. Don't get so strung out on your ASTRAL life that you neglect what you're doing here on Earth.

    You are at the beginning of a long journey to learn where your power really lies. Try to be patient with this process and take your time.
