Mystic Musings: You Can’t Game The System
You Can’t Game The System ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
It really annoys me when someone says “Make it a great day” – or words to that effect. The more skill I gain from living consciously, the less ability I have to “make” things happen.
And I used to teach people how to create their reality, essentially Law of Attraction before Esther Hicks began channeling Abraham.
What is *your* inner Napoleon like? |
When you try to make it a great day, it implies that the day needs making great. That the day wasn’t great to begin with. That you need to *do* something to make that day great. Make the day great again.
Someone could argue it’s about making up your mind that the day will be great. That it’s about your mindset. That you can control the day through your thoughts and your actions.
Can’t you feel the energy of force and contraction? That’s the opposite of openness and expansion.
When we try to make something happen from our mind alone, it’s our inner Napoleon trying to control everything. It’s the little will, the personality part of you, that thinks it’s the sole creator of reality.
Basically it takes essential truths and distorts them. Very sneaky.
Because Consciousness creates reality, you as Consciousness create your reality, but you’re not the only expression of Consciousness, you’re the sole expression of You as Consciousness. With full awareness and appreciation of all the other aspects of Consciousness expressing in form as well.
What happens to me is that I go through a shift in Consciousness, I experience expansion in my life, I find myself at a new level of awareness. Things I felt were solid and real collapse or dissipate, techniques I relied upon stop working. I “upgrade” them (each time they become more subtle with more profound – and more unpredictable – results).
And then my inner Napoleon creeps in and tries to game the system. Because I’ve been doing this work for 37 years, and I’m an expert.
But systems don’t work any more, if they ever did. When you try to make reality that way, there will always be a glitch or a loophole. No matter how perfect your mindset or vision board or repetitive affirmations, your 3 D printer will have gravel in it or a software error.
So I hit a plateau, spend time spinning my wheels, shadow boxing Consciousness, until my current version of Napoleon gets exiled to Elba, and expansion mystically and magically begins again.
When I stand perfectly still, everything in this moment is perfect. There is nothing to want or need. This life is amazing, this world is stunningly beautiful. All is as it should be. All is very, very well.
And then I look at Twitter. Or get triggered on Facebook. Propelled somewhere other than Now.
And no, I’m not on my way to India with my mother’s ashes. And no, we don’t own our own home on Vashon Island… and no, not everyone in my life is living happily ever after (in their current form or story line).
This reality is unfolding out of infinite possibilities, beyond our mind’s ability to imagine. As Consciousness you are immensely complex and multifaceted – what gets manifested comes from You as True Creative Essence, You as Highest Source. It’s already perfect and becoming more so in every moment. There is no do or try.
People forget that Abraham-Hicks stresses the Art of Allowing. Allow it a great day.

Mystic Musings: Are You Creating Reality As A Stick Figure?
Are You Experiencing Reality As A Stick Figure? ©2018 Joan Newcomb
How are you experiencing reality? Does it feel very extreme, very black-and-white, intense drama, reactivity? Or do you have breathing space, clarity, balance, choice?
On a walk this week I mused about reality and manifestation. When I’m aligned and connected, my surroundings come into sharp focus. Greens seem greener, trees are more defined. I get the sense of walking through this physical reality and it’s more profoundly ‘real’ but on a multi-dimensional level.
There’s a belief that this reality is a full-immersion video game, that we’re walking around in these meat suits, but we’re making it all up. It goes so far as to imply that others in our reality aren’t real, we created them to be there.
Are you experiencing your reality as a stick figure? |
As an empath, I had difficulty with this, because I can feel other people’s feelings, even if they’re 3,000 miles away. They are sharing their emotional reality with me, and I know it’s not mine.
Even though I have a higher awareness, I can easily feel entangled in intensity and drama, extreme emotions, if I’m experiencing other’s reality. If I resist it, I get more stuck in it. If I can detach, I can feel compassion for their challenges, and send healing.
But the ‘I create my own reality, and nothing is real, including other people’ didn’t work for me, at least in the cartoonish way it was presented.
It also says that there is no free will, we’re all going along predetermined scripts, so stop trying to change, fix, or control things. This didn’t quite feel true to me, either.
Technology has advanced in the years since I first heard this idea, and we now have on-line gaming and Wii.
And while I’ve been musing, two videos came to my attention. The first one was Bill Nye (“The Science Guy”) talking about creationism vs. evolution. Creationism can be very black and white, very limiting. God created everything, God put us here, full stop.
It’s a one dimensional explanation for a multi-dimensional world.
The second video was Neil deGrasse Tyson saying the most astounding fact is that our molecules and atoms are made up of the same elements from the beginning of the Universe.
As I listened to the second video, which really described evolution from the initial creation of the Universe, I realized that it was taking Creationism’s stick figure explanation and giving it width and depth and length.
Sometimes Science, however, leaves out the aspect of Consciousness, which gives their theories color and tone.
When we were collectively operating from a lower level of awareness, we could only understand things from a stick-figure perspective. What was written in ancient texts was complex ideas put forth in a simplistic fashion, much like how you would talk to a child about college level subjects.
‘I created my reality, nothing is real, including other people, there is no free will, it’s all pre-scripted’ is too simplistic as well.
Reality is a complex creation of Consciousness, a game with infinite levels of possibilities. You can play it any way you want. There is free will, just like a Gamer has choices of taking different actions and it changes the outcome of their playing session. There are other Gamers in the equation, which makes the whole experience much more interesting.
It’s not just you in your own studio composing on a synthesizer, but an orchestra of musicians each contributing their piece.
And yet, on a higher level, it is. As Consciousness, you’ve put forth the elements, but you’ve also created individuals to run around and bang their own symbols. You are both Consciousness and the symbol-banger. You are both the Programmer and the Gamer.
However, in your ‘meat-suit’, there’s only so much you can comprehend. The more immersed you are in the denseness of physical reality, the less you can be attuned to the greater world.
In my early metaphysical training, there was distain for intellectualism. In many religious belief systems there’s an aversion to the Mind. It’s true that the intellect/Mind can distance you from spiritual Truth, but it’s the same distortion as *lack* of intelligence saying Creationism is the only reality.
Consciousness in an Intelligence greater than your own brain, greater than your individual mind. It’s the Internet vs. your hard drive. God is not a jealous or limiting or punishing god. God is Consciousness.
And it’s not all just atoms and molecules and fishes with feet. The invisible reality beyond that which is measurable, is Consciousness.
Consciousness brings both dichotomies together. Because Consciousness transcends time and space, so from that perspective you could say there’s no evolution, but only because it’s all happening at once (no time).
If, while you are walking along a street, you could shift your vibration to a lower speed, you could see what occurred on that street in the past. If you could raise your vibration to a higher speed, you could see what will be happening on that same sidewalk in the future.
Your meat suit can’t do that. Your Consciousness can.
But don’t go there (unless you’re on your third espresso of the day). You are Consciousness manifesting in this meat suit for the fun of experiencing this present moment in these parameters of density and effort. When you die, you’ll realize your lifetime only a blink of an eye, that you always are Consciousness. If you spend all your time going outside yourself to feel Spirit, you’ll miss the point of being here.
However, this Reality game is so big, it encompasses every belief and approach. Just as there is no one True religion, nor definition of God, there’s no one right way to live life.
Go ahead an visualize, go ahead and use manifestation techniques. Or let go of creating your reality and go with the script. It’s all valid.
If you choose to be a fundamentalist, that’s the Game you’ll experience. If you choose to be an atheist, that’s the reality you’ll have. From the level of Consciousness, there is no good or bad (ethics only exist in the physical realm).
This week, I invite you to play with whatever works for you. Just being playful can shift you out of extremes and reactivity. Try it for yourself. And see what happens!

Mystic Minute YouTube Video: Things That Are Bigger Than We Are
Mystic Musings: Manipulating Reality
Manipulating Reality ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
We all seem to be seeking change. We want aspects of our reality to be different. We try to make this happen, either by asking/invoking something outside of ourselves to do it, or by trying to do it ourselves. We use pure effort, we try strategies, we employ systems, we practice or we pray.
I taught techniques on how to create your reality for many years, which were very effective, until I went through a Consciousness Shift myself and those things stopped working. Then I learned (and developed) different ways to move through life to create different experiences.
And then went through a period of time when I was just responding to what showed up, with no motivation to try to change, fix, or manipulate reality at all.
Once in a while, though, I hit times when I feel highly motivated to pull out the old toolkit. One of those was recently, when there was a child abduction case in our neighborhood. Kids at a playground filmed on their phones an old, white, man in a hat and glasses, tying up a ten year old with duct tape, before putting him in a car and driving away.
When I got home and learned this, helicopters had been flying overhead for a couple hours as the police was searching for this guy.
I picked up different bits of information off of social media, all very disturbing, and at some point I kinesiology tested whether they’d find the kid. I got a yes. And then I tested whether he’d be alive, and I didn’t get a clear answer.
Mind you, I was picking up on *everyone’s* reaction to the photos, which didn’t help my testing.
So I got pissed. I decided that I was going to manipulate the shit out of reality. I drew in an enormous amount of “power” and energetically picked up the man by the neck, and scattered his molecules. I may have threatened him with obliteration if the kid wasn’t released, I can’t quite remember. It was very quick and intuitive. But then I decided that *I* could step into a reality that had a different outcome – and suddenly the energy dissipated. The charge wasn’t there. It was done.
I was still quite shook up about it, so over then next twenty minutes I’d try one thing or another, but it all fell flat.
After that I went back on social media and discovered the police called off the search. The man turned out to be the kid’s grandfather, and the story was that the kid was autistic and running into traffic so he used duct tape to subdue him. (CPS was now investigating).
So who knows what really happened but what I notice for myself is that *I* changed the reality I was experiencing, and then the story about what was happening changed. Even though there are still some shifty details to work out.
But here’s the perspective from Consciousness – we’re all Infinite Beings, including the 10 year old, the grandfather, and me. Myself as Consciousness created a story I became aware of. I created a response to it. I did some actions (or reactions).
The first part – fear, then rage, was *not* myself as Consciousness, but the part of me that was felt the need to draw on power that was outside itself in order to manipulate a story that was also outside of itself.
When the energy changed was me employing an actual Consciousness Technique – stepping myself into a reality with a different outcome.
Because you can’t really change things by manipulating. I mean, you can move stuff around and make it look different, but the same core patterns will keep running, so whatever you want to avoid or fix will keep replicating in whatever you try to replace it with.
Playing in Consciousness is an art, it doesn’t work if you’re try to make it a system. When you’re playing *as* Consciousness, you’re at a level beyond thought, beyond your intellect, your mind machine “GPS”.
Shifting yourself in this way creates results beyond what your mind can imagine.
Try this, this week, and see what happens.
Mystic Minute: All About (Friggin’) Growth Periods!
Mystic Musings: Working With The Unseen (Old Ways Become New Again)
Working With The Unseen (Old Ways Become New Again) ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
Every couple of years (or faster, it seems nowadays), I go through a consciousness shift, and my techniques go through an “upgrade”. I struggle for a bit, as old ways stop working, until I relax into whatever the new “operating system” appears to be.
Recently, I was on a conference call for a marketing course I’ve been taking, led by Robert Scheinfeld who is the author of “Busting Loose From The Money Game”. When I asked him a question on being frustrated with an aspect of my business, he suggested that I talk to my guides about it.
Now, I thought I’d stopped talking to guides a long time ago. After I’d upgraded them and we stopped having ‘staff meetings’ when they became electrons. My first reaction was, “oh, that’s such ‘old paradigm’!”
Then I realized, I communicate with the unseen all the time, I just don’t slow down enough to put it on paper. What would it be like if I tried “staff meetings” again with the deva of my business? Would it even work?
I decided to try a coning, which is an energy configuration that I used for many years, with great success. It starts by focusing as Consciousness and connecting with the deva of my business (I actually have several businesses, but in this case I just chose an overarching Deva, without specifically defining what it was). And then connecting with Pan as a representative of Nature, the aspect of bringing the devic information into form. And I connect with my ‘team’ which can be any number of unseen helpers (this time I asked for tech help, publicity, copywriting, and some others).
It was really interesting. I never really paid attention to Pan but in this case I got a *very* strong energetic perception of a big, barrel chested and full bearded, seemingly male presence, who *really* wanted me to open a bottle of wine and have some fun. I moved on to brief communication with the Deva and the team, basically me requesting inspiration and information. It ended fairly quickly. I don’t even remember what I wrote. It’s on my iPad somewhere.
But right after that I got a call from a client from nearly 10 years ago requesting an hour long energy healing. I stopped doing them a while ago as my focus has shifted to teaching people to transforming themselves. I’ve also stopped doing hour long calls, when my rates went up. 30 minute calls deliver the same amount of transformation more efficiently. But, what the heck, so I did it.
Including that session, I unexpectedly earned nearly $1000 in the week after I did that first coning.
I’ve had a couple “staff meetings” since then, really disappointed that I’m not sensing Pan the way I originally felt. They’re very brief, and I don’t really recall anything hugely inspirational coming from them.
And then, out of the blue, I got an email inviting me to a telesummit at the end of May. Sure, why not, I thought, I can recycle the offer I used for a telesummit I did last year. But it turns out this telesummit is focusing on Health, Miraculous Healings and Prevention of Diseases, a completely different topic.
Hmm. So then I give the woman in charge who will be interviewing me a sample session and chat briefly about a possible product. And while we talked, something clicked that what I’m offering will be seeds for the next level of my online courses.
See, I’ve been offering the same course for the last two years, primarily as a private coaching package and sometimes to small groups. But I’ve been so busy that when people complete, I haven’t been able to give them something beyond that beginner course.
And here’s the thing – it’s going to be an upgraded version of Accessing Unseen Help in your Life, Health and Business.
So now I’m really excited, busily producing the content for the Telesummit, which will be at a *radically discounted* rate from what the final investment for the full course will be. Stay tuned for details.
And yesterday it hit me. Accessing Unseen Help arose the moment I started doing these staff meetings again.
Ha, ha, ha.
Those guys are so crafty.

Blog: We All Get Daily “Do-Overs” (and Why there are no ethics as Consciousness)
We All Get Daily “Do-Overs” (and Why there are no ethics as Consciousness) ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
I’m working with several people on reconciling their pasts. They are knee deep in shame and struggle over things they’ve done. The main focus is to shine a light on their side of the street, so they can move forward with no regrets.
A realization I had today is that we have these different themes running through our lives, different story threads, different recurring energy patterns. When we engage unconsciously, these patterns seem to run us. We do things we may later consider unconscionable when when shine the light of Consciousness on it all.
It’s not useful to berate ourselves or want to punish ourselves to past misdeeds. It just solidifies the pattern we want to unravel. Sometimes there are definite actions we can take to help us release the past. But sometimes we might have already rectified the situations and we haven’t recognized it.
Mind you, Consciousness is infinitely neutral about all of this. When our bodies die, what remains is our greater Consciousness, and there’s none of this leftover residual energy that we’ve made up stories about from a personality level interpretation.
We don’t go to hell, we aren’t trapped in purgatory, our immortal souls are not destroyed by the misdeeds committed while in form. It’s all just absorbed into Consciousness, like falling into an ocean of Love.
It’s hard to comprehend while in form, because this is a world where things are black and white, good and bad, right and wrong. So we will interpret the afterlife with these same assumptions.
When we’re entangled in form, these ethics are all very real. Outside of form, they don’t exist.
That doesn’t mean that it’s ok to run around killing people or ripping them off while you’re in body. Not because it’s bad, but because you’re engaging in unconscious behavior patterns. When you’re operating as Consciousness, you have no interest in playing that way in form.
So how do we reconcile the actions of the past, when we were operating as our body personality egoic patterns, from this new awareness as Consciousness?
It’s simple (as everything as Consciousness is simple). Each day we get a “Daily Do-Over”. We get to be different. Every day is a new reality. Kind of like the movie “Groundhog Day”, except the story moves onward.
We get to be new every morning. We don’t have to behave the way we used to, we don’t have to react to things the way we used to. And even if we are engaging with situations and people from our pasts, we don’t have to be the way that’s projected at us (because there are all sorts of stories out there as well.
As Consciousness, we’re inventing this moment to moment. If past situations arise in the present, they’re opportunities to be different. Each time you are different with past patterns, the energy dissipates until it’s gone completely.
Each time we respond as Consciousness, we embody our greater self more into form, we’re more empowered, clear and confident. And our lives reorganize is miraculous ways.
Try this for the next week and see what happens!

Mystic Musings: Self Driving Cars
Self Driving Cars ©2018 Joan M. Newcomb, CPC
The other day, someone was telling me how they had been stuck in their schtick. They didn’t like it but they also couldn’t get out of it, until someone helped them dismantle it. Afterwards they felt lighthearted and free.
Google Self Driving Car by Becky Stern |
It’s reminiscent of how most people feel, going about their daily lives, feeling dissatisfied, discontent. They know they’re stuck but feel powerless to get unstuck.
Until they experience a shift in Consciousness, and open to a whole new experience of expansion and freedom.
Our bodies are our vehicles on this planet. It’s how we get to experience physical reality, and all the delicious sensations associated with it.
When we’re operating unconsciously, our bodies become self driving cars. They’re moving through their routines, they’re picking up all sorts of impressions and having all sorts of reactions.
If you look around you, and if you look at the news, reality is filled with self driving cars, with very little Consciousness occupying them.
And, at the same time, there’s an increasing amount of Consciousness coming into form nowadays. Which means all those cars are actually experiencing more Consciousness than ever before.
Which is why there seems to be greater collective freedom and empowerment AND greater outrage and atrocities than ever before.
It may seem like self driving cars don’t *want* Consciousness occupying them. They want to keep careening about, smashing into dead ends and each other.
And yet, when Consciousness fully embodies, they calm down, feel happy, feel taken care of.
Self driving cars think they won’t get what they want if they’re not driving themselves.
But what really happens is they get everything they need, and more.
When you start to steer as Consciousness, the journey looks very, very different. Instead of chasing after things that remain forever out of reach, or feel hollow to attain, reality starts to reorganize in your favor. What you want starts to appear in your life, without any effort.
Instead of a winning lotto ticket, you have a prosperous and abundant life. It *feels* like you’ve won the lotto. Instead of the perfect job, you have a rich and rewarding career. Instead of your ideal soul mate, you have fulfilling emotional partnership.
All you have to do is take your vehicle off of autopilot. Shift your perspective from your personality to yourself as Consciousness. Navigating life as your own greater Consciousness is a very subtle, but profound, inner realignment.
When you do this, your life unfolds beyond your mind’s wildest imagination.
Try this for a week and see what happens!
