YOUR 52-WEEK JOURNEY OF SELF-DISCOVERY

Allow me to say first how privileged and honoured I am to share this profound chakra journey with you. If youve decided to commit to this 52-week spiritual journey, youre probably already highly intuitive. Something in this book has called to you and now your intuitive energy is about to expand even further!

The journey youre about to undertake will give you the tools to change your life. Now, how can I make a statement like that? Its simple: commitment at this level will change you. And by embarking on a journey that will change your life, youll establish a path of success to travel again and again.

My own journey began with a near-death experience in 1988. While I was recovering in the hospital, angels began to visit me, telling me stories. These fables were all different as varied as the angels that delivered them but I noticed that they were all based on colour. It wasnt until much later, when I started working with them properly, that I realized that these fables all represented our chakras (wheels of energy in the human body, each of which has its own colour). You see, after I wrote down the fables, I left them locked in a drawer for nearly 20 years until one day a friend in dire financial straits came to visit me. Coming on one of the fables by chance (it was the fable of the Carrot-coloured Clock, which became the Perseverance card), I showed it to my friend, who was inspired to create a miracle in his life.

I set up groups to work with the fables. From these, the themes and lessons of the stories emerged, and the exercises and meditations were developed. Id always had an affinity for working psychically with cards, so it was a natural evolution for me to turn the fables into cards. It wasnt until I self-published the original divinatory deck, and began working with the cards, that I uncovered the full power of the fables. Someone once described the fables to me as lessons without the lecture. Without preaching, they help us to understand the themes of life. They heighten our intuition and give us the spiritual tools to change our lives. They are miraculous because they make us see that nothing is impossible. They allow us to go back into the past to uncover the hidden agreements with our family of origin that prevent us from manifesting what we want and to work with what I term multi-generational healing, identifying the challenges and rewards passed to us by our family and more distant ancestors. These fables have helped me through my own dark night of the soul, more than once.

Theres a profound connection between this book and the Chakra Wisdom Oracle Cards, my divinatory system in which each of the 49 cards offers the insights of one of the fables. You dont need the cards to use this toolkit, but if you do decide to use them together youll be amazed by the speed at which you progress and the high levels of personal mastery you can achieve. If you dont know how to read cards but have a wish to do so, I must tell you that by the close of this journey with the toolkit youll know the card deck well. You can access the cards for free at www.ChakraWisdomOracle.com. You dont need a special psychic ability or to be a professional reader to benefit from this toolkit or the deck; your own intuitive expansion over the course of this year will help you to connect with the fables and the cards.

When Watkins published the Chakra Wisdom Oracle Cards, the idea was to give an abbreviated version of the fables that encapsulated the essence of their message, so that anyone wanting to work with the deck could simply draw a card, open the book and get a reading. Here in this toolkit, however, youll find in full the original fables that inspired the deck. Each of the fables offers a spiritual tool for living and, week by week as you work through the fables, youll add another of these tools to your kit. In this book well delve deeply into the magic of the fables that have transformed many lives, including my own.

Youll notice that the fables appear in chakra order. In the first chakra (red), you look at your foundation and the source of your life energy. In the second chakra (orange), you explore your emotions. In the third chakra (yellow), you work on your intellect. The fourth chakra (green) is about opening your heart to your true desire. In the fifth chakra (blue), you learn about authentic self-expression. In the sixth chakra (purple), you work with your intuition. And finally, in the seventh chakra (neutral), you open yourself to finding your highest calling and reaching an elevated level of spiritual development.

In every class I teach, no matter what the topic, I always work with the chakras. I firmly believe in our intuitive wisdom with our own chakras. When you take this journey with the toolkit, youll come to know your chakras in a very intimate and personal way.

I also believe all the fables to have three aspects: darkness, dawn and light (see pages ). In the toolkit well be working with these overarching themes. When were in the deep unknown of our personal darkness, we tend to be afraid and may think that a fable is negative. Yet this darkness signifies the beginning of a new awareness. Its the start of your journey into awakening your chakras, a gentle deepening of self. The fables come forward not to punish but to enlighten.

Dawn represents whats now coming for the first time into your conscious awareness. In dawn we open ourselves to the idea that something inspired is trying to find its way to us, even though life may appear to be challenging at the moment.

And finally, the light is the highest calling of the fable. This is where we choose the most inspired solution.

Are you ready?

Welcome to your journey!

This toolkit is designed to take you on a magical chakra journey over the course of a year. There is so much more that you will learn than I can describe here. But know this: it will be fun. And challenging and exciting and, most of all, useful. Youll gain the tools to enable you to enjoy your life, navigate challenging periods and manifest whatever you choose!

The power of the fables to change lives is extraordinary. There are 49 fables, each a week-long journey. This leaves three weeks in the year to step outside the fables and look at overarching themes. On Week 1 we explore how to approach the fables through the concepts of darkness, dawn and light. On Week 23 we integrate the lessons of the three lower chakras and look forward to the higher chakras. Week 52 is the books conclusion and an opportunity to review all the work youve done. Keep in mind that the 49 fables are divided into groups of seven, each group associated with one of the bodys major chakras. On pages I explain how each seven-week stage of your journey is coloured by the chakra with which the seven fables are linked.

Each week is structured in the same way. First, youll see a message of the week, along with my tip. These give you insight into how to approach the fable and the weeks activities. Once youve read the fable, a first impressions section challenges you to ponder its meaning. Youre also asked to set your intention for the week. I suggest you read all this material, then take a few minutes to think about your response to the story and write out your intention. This will set the tone for your week. However, its important that you give yourself permission to do this
