An old Cherokee told his grandson, "My son, there is a battle between two wolves inside of us all. One is Evil. It is anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies & ego.
The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy & truth." The boy thought about it, and asked, "Grandfather, which wolf wins?"
The old man quietly replied, "The one you feed."
This is so true.
Recently I have watched as people I deeply love have come under attack from others who see them as competitors within their industry. The amazing thing about the hospitality industry is that there is more than enough to go around. Those who are enlightened know that to support each other only means more growth and abundance within everyone’s business.
After all, the more variety on offer in one area, the more foot traffic, interest and support it will generate for the precinct. Spiritual and intuitive development is much the same.
I am most outspoken about the general lack of censorship and professionalism within the Spiritual community. Having said this, it is not often I will actively go and warn people against attending certain things. I absolutely express my opinion on arenas within my teaching capacity as I have genuinely lived, loved, studied and practitioned long enough in my discipline to understand with certainty when and where a teacher’s agenda is coming from.
So what is this about?
Recently, and within the past, I have again been criticized for not being Spiritual enough. I think because I have a severe lack of crystals that I wear and a somewhat direct nature (chuckle chuckle), I do not seem to quite fit in with the pre-conceived notions of the term ‘Spiritual’.
So what does ‘Spiritual’ mean? To me it means: one who is willing, open and evolutionary within their concept of living both with spirit and humans. ‘Spiritual’ means that as a human I can still live and feel emotions but at all times will attempt to modify my reactive response to a pro-active one.
During a recent channelling session, I, as Julianna, felt great sadness for a situation a mother was facing whilst I was being a conduit for my Guide. As such, I felt myself cry whilst my Guide continued to channel the information.
I opened up my email a few days later and had an interesting comment from a former member of an association I once knew. This letter scoffed at the fact that I had 'apparently condescended to actually show emotion considering my severe lack of spirituality and respect for spiritualism'. I was also reprimanded for starting the Spirited Sunday Sessions, as these were also considered to be academic in performance and not spiritual enough.
So what did I do?
I hopped onto Facebook to say something and then I saw the wolf quote on a friend’s wall.......so I stole it.....and felt ashamed that I had actually gotten so annoyed about the email. In my defence, in one week I have been abused for studying Judaism, abused for refusing to align with rules and regulations for the so-called ‘Spiritual’ movement, generally been annoyed by the ignorant and had people sign up for my newsletter just to tell me they had done this “to uphold me as the radical example of what a young, renegade psychic with no respect for Spirit can throw into society to damage the spiritual movement and all the work they have done over the years.” Quite a week...
So I read this quote and it reminded me that:
- I am not a renegade, just Julianna;
- I am not only a ‘psychic’... but Julianna who was delivered into this world with a tool and a mandate to share it from my God and Guides;
- It is ok to be human yet not inhumane;
- It is ok to feel emotion yet not judge;
- It is ok to be who you are without excuse or lie;
- It is ok to have a different relationship with spirit and understand this is the natural order of things-for me;
- It is ok to have a dream to bring this young, experienced knowledge into the arena, even in the face of constant, wave after wave of opposition;
- It is ok to not wear crystals.....unless they are pink or champagne tourmalines.....a garnet or emerald.....perhaps the odd Ceylon sapphire...;
- It is ok to write what I feel, am Guided to and observe, because those who wish to read will and those who don’t won’t;
- It is ok to feel the hunger of disappointment of a situation yet still act with integrity; and
- It is ok to understand that there is sooo much space within both the human and the soul to develop, that attending to one area is not a threat to another.
Integrity was once surmised by Oprah as the things we do right when no one is looking. This is also my definition of Spiritualism. What’s yours and which wolf will you feed?

When you are satisfied in yourself you don't need to be concerned with what anyone else thinks.
Keep up with your great work and calling.

I don't know how you do it, but often I am going through life and having situations test me and I'm sitting here at home thinking about the situation and me and them when, lo and behold, your newsletter comes out and it's usually discussing the area I am trying to work on. THANK YOU!
What this means, to me, is that I am at the right point in my life to connect with you and learn a bit more about my self and my spiritual development.
So far, the GIID course has helped me to start looking at how I think and how I communicate. I am starting to do both a little differently, which is good. This also means I am out of my comfort zone and i am also having to take the time to slow down and be more self aware as I integrate these changes. Oh, to be out of my comfort zone!
I read your newsletter and I say to you well done for staying true to yourself no matter what others say or do. I admire that about you. I am hoping to get to a stage where I do not have such an emotional reaction to upheaval. You seem to cope with such dignity and kindness to the negativity that often presents itself to you.
I also admire your honesty. It's one of the many things I like about you. I think that your honesty comes with love and sincerity and that can't be a bad thing.
I have spent the last 20 years having experiences with 'spiritual' people and whilst I have learnt some things about spirituality I have also learnt that the people involved in such practices are not necessarily able to embrace the concept in a positive way in their everyday lives. I have been left still searching for guidance and mentorship.
Until now. Until you. Thank you so very much for being you. Finally I have found someone who is honest and true. Who will tell me what I need, not what I want. Who has experienced spirit and can speak from the truth of living that every day.
I just want to give you a big hug and say I, for one, am grateful to you for the fresh new insight you bring to the spiritual arena. I absolutely love the insightful knowledge that you are willing to share.
You give me courage to stand true and work through the various problems that crop up in my life at times and to develop my spirituality with the confidence that you are there to help me to grow.
Thanks for being such a wonderful role model and mentor.
Lots of love always,
Jodie Lancashire

I think you're awesome even though you’re not a crystal wearing, crowd follower. Love your straight forward outlook, your wicked sense of humour & at least I know when I ask you something you're not going to stuff me around or feed me shit!!! Other than that - hope you are well & still smiling
Love & cheers
Tam

On another note, one of the primary principals of Feng Shui is "like attracts like", so similar businesses located together creates a greater chance of success and greater traffic flow for all concerned. :)

I wonder if these people who made the comments are parents? People should not be judging you as they were not there and did not hear or feel the intense emotions in the room when this question was asked.
I admire you not only did you compose yourself, you also allowed your guide Elizabeth continue to channel the information which needed to be told.
You are a wonderful person and dont ever let people like this make you feel otherwise.

There is no good or evil, but what happened here is that these people actioned non-love towards you Julianna - you then used it to create and further define your goal - and it becomes a goal for me now too - and I am sure many others - you have turned the situation into love and that alone makes you angelic.
Thank you, I have been to Israel, Egypt and studied many hours in spirituality and you are a true definition of truth. And to me, that is what spirituality is about.

Not Reckless just FEARLESS
Not Insane just CRAZY
Not Weird just DIFFERENT
Not Scared just COLD
Not Unwilling just DETERMINED
Not nonconforming just INDEPENDENT
Not Fake just REAL Not Strange just INDIVIDUAL
I AM .......
I do not fit into the pre-conceived terms of my chosen occupation is either....sometimes it is hard. I used to feed the evil wolf behaviour by conforming and trying to fit in and doing what others expect me to do. Now I just be me and that is ok too!
I can't wait to start classes with you in October.....

Please excuse this group blog I just felt overwhelmed when I read all your responses. I started to answer each individually when I thought it really is simple: thank you for your strength, capacity, honesty, curiosity to learn, desire to stay who you each are and your fearlessness in following it through.
I am proud of what we do each day everyday with our teaching, mp3 and other programs and if I have one regret it is that I wish I had starting doing it earlier rather than later.
Thank you for your words, inspiration and clarity that Nicole and I are absolutely appreciated for the long hours, hard work, constant belief in our path and for standing firm and amused at the constant pout downs!!
Build the community we shall, and I'm glad beyond words, and with a few tears as I write this, that you will be my neighbours in my choice of neighborhood.
My love,
Julianna.
