Each Auragraph is first created in pen and ink on paper, for at least an hour of drawing and then scanned into the computer and made into a black and white line drawing suitable for coloring in. I use a Waacom Graphire tablet and pen to continue the drawing digitally.
Sometimes I add to the drawing in the digital process so that images that are in the finished product are not in the original pen and ink drawing, but could be added. This process takes many hours to complete, as the transfer from pen and ink to digital requires painstaking cleanup work.
This is especially true for the Talisman which I do add digitally. Originally, I offered the Talisman as a separate interaction between us after I had finished the Auragraph, but people never got back to me to do the Talisman, which is a very important part of this process, so I began to include a “temporary” Talisman along with the Auragraph, which I apply digitally. If I was working with you to produce a physical piece of art, I would include it in the process. The “cleanup time” is the time when I am receiving the information I need to pass on to you.
There is a piece of original artwork, 5” x 8” available for purchase, if you are interested. I do the drawings in a sketchbook, usually. This piece of artwork is also expandable into a painting should you so desire. I retain the copyright on all artwork so that I may use it for advertising purposes or to use as source material to make into a painting at a later date, myself.
Often, I make these images into mixed media paintings, using the original artwork as a collage element with Encaustic Wax Medium and oil paint on wood, along with other collage elements. You can view these on my website. https://joannawhitney.weebly.com/
The purpose of the Auragraph is to show you a psychic snapshot of where you are at – and how you are out of alignment with Spiritual Principles so that you can make changes to make your life easier – and help you to understand yourself as a human animal here on Earth. The Oracle reading focuses and enhances the Auragraph. The purpose of the Talisman is to take the essence of that reading and help you to align your subconscious mind with that of your Higher Mind.
Oracle Reading:
There are 3 negative cards and 3 God cards – You have some deep-seated secrets you have been keeping that are making you sick. It will take courage to speak the truth. It is an obstacle to your Spirituality – you cannot use self-will except in service to the Higher Mind. You need Higher Knowledge.
Auragraph:
You are looking through a teardrop-shaped window into your Spiritual Realm. The pentagram appears as the filter through which you are looking – and referring back to the Oracle Reading – it is the center point of your life. Your left hand holds where your heart was and your right hand holds you. The left side represents receptivity and the right side, manifestation.
The Pentagram is an ancient symbol meaning that the Spiritual rules over the other 4 bodies – the physical body, the emotional body, the intellectual body and the passion body – all those bodies come under the Spiritual control. Know Thyself is the answer to that question – to be able to contain the erratic and often opposing forces of those other 4 bodies under the spiritual takes an act of Will. You understand that the Will is Spiritual – it is the cause and what appears in the physical. To align oneself with Spiritual Principles – keeps one out of the fray or unprincipled action – nihilism – we see perpetrated upon us by the media in our society.
The part of the Triangle in the Auragraph that represents Spirit is small. The legs of the Pentagram are long. So in the Auragraph, the Physical (work, home, security, emotional security) and Passions (your calling, your desires, things you like and don’t like, and of the ego) have more weight in your life than your Spiritual Self, your intellect and your emotions. You sacrifice the Spiritual, intellect, emotions and passions for security, home, money, emotional security…
And the secrets lie in the emotional security… it will take courage to speak or rectify the situation to bring the Spirit into balance. Your heart is displaced in the Auragraph – it melted out of it’s place and is melting in an emotional puddle around you. There are 3 waves beneath it – The Trinity ...Father, Holy Spirit, Son also equals: Thoughts, Emotions, Actions – becoming equal – in the Spirit – Once the secrets are out then you can use that energy of Will to Act in alignment with emotional balance.
The heart is the center of the Spiritual Will. It is the “Care” center. Compassion and Empathy live there. When you push Truth down and don’t speak it over a long period of time, it becomes calcified so that you cannot feel what you “care” about – society wants this to be so. In society, if you don’t have “care” you can be controlled, and you can also act against your morals.
There is an infinity symbol also which indicates this heart work is Karmic – meaning it may be from a past life that did not get cleaned up and needs to get cleaned up now.
There is Shadow Work – the snake. The snake slithers on the ground so represents base desire and sheds it’s skin so can transform. The snake is in the emotional arm of the Pentagram indicating that that is where your Shadow Work lies.
What is Shadow Work?
Everything is made of energy: Light. The earth, the sun, all sentient beings, all objects that are not sentient. When an object blocks the light, it creates a “Shadow”.
The lower the frequency of energy, the more “solid” it appears and the more solid creates a darker shadow when struck with light from the other side. Take a rock and a balloon – a rock creates a dark black shadow, while a balloon, which is transparent, creates a transparent shadow. The higher the frequency of the energy, there is either no shadow, or a more transparent shadow. Low frequency energy equals a solid which equals a solid dark shadow, when blasted with light from the opposite side.
The term Shadow Work is an allegorical statement regarding Light and “enlightenment” vs. Dark “shadows”; meaning that the egoic nature of low frequency actions which are simply repeated over and over, are stuck and never change because of unresolved ideas and issues that continue to play out over a long period of time, causing harm to the being who has the shadow and to other beings who are in relationship to it.
Shadow Work is the toil by which a conscious being investigates to bring the low frequency energy to high frequency to eliminate the Shadow and bring about a state of “enlightenment”.
You will find your Shadow Work through Prayer and Meditation. I will give you a simple formula for that practice in case you don’t already do it, or feel overwhelmed by it.
Direction for Meditation and Prayer
The solution is that you let God be the Director of your life, then things will go much better for you, because you will always know what to do because you will be guided by a Power greater than you that has your best interest in mind for the Highest Good of all concerned.
A good place to start would be MEDITATION and PRAYER. Start with a few minutes of silent meditation in the morning and at night - and increase it as you can. You can count backward from 25 and try to see the numbers in your head- this will block other thoughts from coming in. The purpose
of meditation is to get out of the ego self and into the observer self so that you are no longer attached to ideas that you believe are real… and you can get into the silence - this does take practice. Yoga can
help with this as well. Breathing into your stuck points in your body while doing a stretch can help you find mental silence.
Prayer on the other hand is for throughout the day - and it requires practice to become a working part of your life - Asking at each point when you set out to do something - what is God's Will in this situation?
Pausing and waiting and then looking for the answer in signs or intuition, chance meetings or things that come from outside you to start with ... You can do this with minutia as well as big decisions. Practice at the grocery store when standing in front of the bread isle – there are so many choices - God, what kind of bread should I buy? and then pause and wait to see which bread seems right. It takes practice. The finite mind is not going to want to give up it's status as the ruler - so it might be confusing and frustrating but the more you practice the more it will become a working part of the mind...
Even making mistakes shows you are trying and you will get great rewards
from that -
Acknowledging these miracles - by writing them down - makes them more and more believable - not something to be brushed off as "coincidence" - or not even noticed -
In addition, during this "crisis" we are in - you could Pray for a simple way you could be helpful to others - and for the ability to let go of the results - you do not know what is best for others - but you can be helpful to them in some way -
This will get you out of yourself and let the Higher Power have a chance to work out the right decision for you - so that you will know what to do when you need to know it...
Once you have a few experiences with this – ask what your Shadow Work is and ask to be brought to it’s solution. Then watch for the answers to show up.
To strengthen your Spiritual connection, I am going to share with you about spiritual principles and how to live by them. This is not meant to insult you– but it is not like this is taught in society or on tv or media in movies or books or set by example by anyone… This knowledge is deeply occulted – or hidden.
What is Natural Law?
It is the most occulted knowledge. Occult from the Latin Root “Ocu” means “eye”. It means hidden. This knowledge was given to humanity, thousands of years ago, but it was taken by the Priest Class – the Mystery Schools and remains hidden from the people. It is not “taught” in school. Nor is critical thinking – which would show “how” to think about and “how” to apply these laws in daily life.
Natural Law is universal spiritual laws which govern the consequences of behavior for intelligent species; meaning beings that are capable of coming to an understanding of Self /Consciousness, and are also capable of understanding the objective difference between harmful and non-harmful behavior towards themselves and other beings.
These Spiritual Principles have had many different names in many different traditions throughout the world in different times in history.
Some examples are:
| Law of Cause and Effect: | Law of Attraction | Law of Correspondence |
|---|---|---|
| Effect invariably follows cause/For every action, there exists an equal and opposing reaction | The energy you emit is the energy you attract/Energy flows where attention goes. | As above, so below. As within, so without |
| - | - | - |
| The Golden Rule: | ||
| - | - | - |
| Do not do to others as you would prefer not to have done onto you./As you think, feel, and act – so you shall be. |
Other Laws can be found in the Kybalion which can be downloaded for free at http://libgen.is/
Natural Law Transgressions or Violations of Spiritual Principles
Harmful Actions:
• Murder / Assault – Ending a life without the right to do so. If a being is killed in the act of somebody defending themselves, it is not murder.
Under no possible circumstance does the “right to murder” or the “right to assault”
exist. However, the right to defend oneself through physical force exists at all times.
• Rape– Coercing the free will of another being, and making them sexually associate
with whom they wish not to.
• Theft – Taking what another being has created or acquired through lawful means,
which is their property for as long as they are using it and being responsible for it. You have no right to just take something that does not belong to you.
• Trespass – Every being has the right to set aside a (reasonably sized) space for
themselves. And invading this area without permission or consent would be invading
their privacy and their personal space, while taking away their security in the process.
• Coercion – Forcing another being through threat of violence to have their will comply
with yours, whether they wish that to be the case or not. Making another being do
something against their will is not a right.
Although this is already a short and seemingly simple list, all these transgressions can ultimately be narrowed down to just one wrong-doing: Theft.
This refers to other beings rather than just humans, making us question how we treat animals and the every thing on earth and the Earth Herself - Gaia.
What makes us believe we have that right to do the things we do? And we have to be thoughtful, for example of the things we buy – where was it made? How was it made? What is it made of? Can items really be “thrown away”? Do we do things out of convenience that cause harm? Are there things that we have always known that we do by rote that cause harm? By buying something that causes harm, do we participate in the causing of these harms?
Are there other ways that we participate in harms being caused?
There is a film called Earthlings which goes into great detail about how humans have assumed “dominion” over all life on earth, due to a reference made in the sacred religious texts. Ask yourself why we trust some things that are talked about in these texts, and not others; are we taking things from it that are for our convenience rather than really seeking to see if these things are moral and correct?
Rights can’t be granted to human beings by other human beings, because rights don’t come from human beings; everybody is born with exactly the same rights. Remember, in the Declaration of Independence, of the United States of America, it states “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” These “unalienable Rights” were not granted to us by Government – and they existed long before the Declaration of Independence. They were granted by the Creator. But we have to continue to stand up for our Rights. Which requires courage. How do you get courage? Knowledge of Truth. “Knowledge is Power and the Truth will set you free.”
Spiritual Principles, or the difference between right and wrong behavior, always hold true regardless of a population’s culture. This means that it doesn’t matter how many people agree that a wrong action can be turned into a right action, or that a right action can be turned into a wrong action. Such things can never be done in reality. People can only believe that they can fly if they jump out of the window – but it does not make it so. Then we wonder why our lives are so hard...
When in doubt as to whether an action is, or is not in harmony with Spiritual Principles, visualize the scenario of a world with only two people. If the behavior is a right or a wrong in that instance, it shall forever remain a right or a wrong in any size population; regardless of how many people may believe otherwise. So, if the action is a right for one person to do toward another, it shall always remain a right. And if the action is a wrong for one person to do toward another, it shall always remain a wrong, regardless of the number of people involved. Remember – the Declaration of Independence says God doesn’t have grand-kids.
There is much more written and discussed about Spiritual Principles. When you live by them, your life becomes easier because you are living by Truth. But it is not easy to do because most people in society do not live this way.
A simple way to get back into alignment with Spiritual Principles:
| 1. Write down all the people you are mad with a pen on paper. Give each person a separate page. | 2. Next to each name, write down in a list, all the things that person did to you in detailed complete sentences. | 3. Now, on the back of each person’s page, write down all the things you did to them, using the Spiritual Principles transgressions as a guide |
|---|---|---|
| 3a.If you did not do anything to them, make sure that you have not done what you are mad at them for doing, to someone else. Be honest and thorough. The Universe knows what you have done, and balanced the books a long time ago, by making your life hard, so not writing something down will only be you short-changing yourself. | 4. Write down all the people who were affected by what you did, and all the Natural Law transgressions you perpetrated which caused them harm. | 5. Now, go out and make matters right with all those people. |
5a. Pay back the money you owe, time you stole. Apologize to the people you broke promises to and keep the promises. Make restitution for crimes you committed that you were not caught for – balance the books with the people you have harmed.
Make sure that as you do this, you are not causing any harm to the people currently in your life. For example, if you owe money, make sure that paying it back does not cut in to the money you need to support your family, etc.
As you begin to do this, your life will begin to get back in alignment with Spiritual Principles and things will get better for you.
If you need help with this process, you can contact me and I will help you with it, free of charge. In addition, if you would like to know more about Natural Law/ Spiritual Principles, contact me and I will give you my bibliograpy.
After you have cleaned up the mistakes form the past, continue to keep your side of the street clean – through daily review to make sure that you are not transgressing any Natural Law principles…
with each interaction with others, pause and make sure you are not causing harm…
and things in your life will be magickal because your Spiritual Channel will be open and clear and you will be in alignment with Nature, God, Spirit. In this case, your psychic abilities will be strengthened and heightened.
I am going to give you a Talisman that I think suits your reading,
