Everything in nature is rhythm. Everything in the universe is in motion; nothing is fixed, permanent, unchanging. This eternal pulse is in everything – sound, breath, light and vibration. To become aware of these cyclic rhythms to which our body, mind and spirit are subjected to is learning how to swim with the rhythm not against it.

The sun and the moon were regarded among ancient peoples as representative of the duality of the masculine and feminine principles inherent in nature, and of the active and passive, conceptual and receptive forces that permeate it. They used these forces to create a rhythm and cycle for spiritual life.

Timing is an important element in the practice of psychic awareness and connection with the sacred. So are some times better than others? There are many factors that influence psychic powers and spiritual connection. The three most important ones are:

• The different energy of the day and of the night

• The times when day and night meet

• The phases of the moon

In setting aside time to connect you will need to take care of your practical and immediate needs and obligations. It is important that you dedicate a specific time each day or each week to practise.

Creating a habit or ritual in your routine enables your mind and body to become accustomed to that time to tune in, and this regularity of connection creates confidence in tuning into your psychic powers. It won’t work, however, if you decide that you want to create a sacred moment when your children are screaming, or if it makes you late for the office. It is better to dedicate only an hour a week to your psychic practice, if during that time you can be serene and enjoy connecting, than to try to greet the day with a full ceremonial ritual when you’re pushed for time.

Day Time

During the day the energy of the sun is predominant. It is strong, active and expanding. Sunshine ‘draws you out’ and empowers energy; it makes you want to explore and try new things, it gives you courage, and helps communication, business and commerce. It is the Yang (male) energy of Chinese philosophy.

Day time furthers psychic powers that involve relating to others, expanding in the world, and gaining strength and power. Work and money are dealt with best during the day, as are matters of travel and the blossoming stages of a love affair.
