How to Channel
Channeling is as scary as Hollywood makes it out to be. It’s a natural ay to communicate with higher level beings and your angels!
So, thinking about channeling? Let’s chat!
I did a Podcast called “Suddenly Seeking Spirit” with my friends Andrea and Andrew on the topic of channeling and that’s what inspired this post!
If you are reading this, I have a pretty good idea that you have heard about channeling. Even more likely is that you’ve seen channeling done in movies where a psychic’s eyes roll back in their head and their voice sounds like gollum from lord of the rings.
That’s not what real channeling is.
Channeling is a natural form of communication between humans and angelic beings, nature spirits, non-physical entities, or even animals and pets. This definition is one I found from www.cirmsoncircle.com that I really resonated with.
Channeling is, and should be, natural. We are spiritual beings first. We are pure energy and energy can’t be destroyed, it just changes. So, why does it look so goddamn hard and why do people feel like it’s out of their reach?
Well, your ego is why. We are worried about a lot of things like lower energies, “demons”, and feeling like we are making shit up or imposter syndrome.
Stop that shit. You can do this. Not only can you do it, it can change your life. To give you some perspective, I have been reading tarot for 7 years, I’m a Medium which means I talk to dead folks, and I psyched myself out about channeling for the longest time.
Then it hit me. Out of nowhere. I didn’t need to take expensive courses or sell my soul ( I don’t think).
I just started. I will share my process for how it started in this post later on.
My guide I channel is named Francisco. He has never been human and is from a whole other dimension and galaxy and offers insight about his observations of the human experience.
You can hear Francisco’s messages on my YouTube Channel Here:

Channeling is something that has changed a lot for me. I can access this wisdom and guidance anytime I need it and so can you.
We are the ones who build our own blocks to our success. Spiritual Success, Financial Success, Romantic Success, all of it. We don’t see something as possible for us, so we just ignore it and keep showing ourselves reasons why it won’t work.
Here are the reasons why channeling can, will, and should, work for you:
You are already divine as fuck and don’t need to do anything extra
You have a whole Spiritual Team WAITING to contact you
You are more powerful than you know and give yourself credit for
You are pure love, you just have to see it
I asked Francisco for a message for you all about channeling are here is what he wanted to say:
“I want you to not think about how the guidance will come, what it will sound like, what it will feel like or what should happen. The biggest hindrance to all of your progress in all fronts is your expectation of what it should b, there is that much more times a million that you don’t. When you release that need to control, when you release that expectancy of what your experience will be like, that is where we are waiting to meet you. That is where your guidance is. When you lat down the need to control what the experience will be and the desire to coordinate every detail, you find the magic you are, and have been, looking for”e from your limited viewpoints. As much as you think you have control over the world around you.”
So here is a quick exercise to help you channel as you write. Also keep in mind your handwriting may change. That’s totally normal so don’t freak out.:
Supplies:
Paper
Pen/Pencil
Oracle Deck
The oracle deck is technically optional, but I found that when I first started channeled writing it gave me a topic to focus on. You can also find oracle card apps and decks online to draw cards from if you don’t have a deck yourself! I personally love Colette-Baron Reid’s website (CLICK HERE), you can draw cards from some of her decks for free!
Okay, so just sit with your paper and pen or pencil in front of you.
Take some deep breaths and really get comfortable.
Release all tension in your shoulders, jaw, and neck.
Shuffle your cards (virtual or physical) and find the card that sticks out.
Pick that card. I got a card called “Water” with “Emotional Well-being” as the subtitle.
So, knowing that’s the topic I will channel guidance about I start the process of calling in the angels and guides.
Don’t worry if you don’t see them or what they look like. Just see white light all around you.
Let this white light shine and fill up the room.
Tell them what the topic of the guidance will be and take some deep breaths.
Let go of your own thoughts and feelings and expectations.
Start listening to that small voice talking to you and write down what it says.
You can tell it to slow down if it’s going too fast.
When it stops, stop. Then review what you wrote.
You may find that you zoned out, that’s totally okay and normal! Eventually, you will get to the point where you won’t need that paper and pen and can just speak what you are hearing. It took me almost 10 days of consistent channeling to get to the point where I couldn’t keep up with just writing and had to start speaking it into my voice memos. It may take you more times, it may take you less. The important thing is to go at your own pace!
Comment on this post or send me a DM over on Instagram at www.instragram.com/tarotwithandrew and tell me how the exercise went!
Keep Channeling!

Weekly Reading for August 22nd-28th, 2016
Hello, everyone!
We have another blog post for a weekly reading, as my schedule is just insane as of late. So I apologize that you don't get to see my lovely face (hahaha). But this is going to be a helluva week!
We start off with the 'Ace of Swords'! So we are going to have breakthroughs in ideas or thought patterns. This is going to involve cutting away things keep you from thinking clearly and making decisions from the logic part of your brain and spirit. For those of you that are Water signs and Fire Signs, you instinctively go with your emotion (Waters signs) and your Passions (Fire Sign). Earth and Air signs are more practical so I don't see having TOO hard of a time with these types of logical decisions. This is going to be a big change for some people, but welcome it! I am drawn to what Wayne Dyer said "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change"....don't be afraid to look at things differently just because you have seen them a certain way for a long time!
This is going to lead to a MAJOR role change as we see the 'King of Wands' standing tall and firm in his passions and beliefs. This week carries an energy of the realization of the power and authority that YOU have as an extension of the very energy that created you! You are powerful, so stop living as though your circumstances are outside of your control. We bring everything to us through what we think and say, so change what you think and say. Change how you see situations and watch them change before your eyes!
This week is going to be INTENSE, so at the end of the week, we are called to meditate and rest. Get to know yourself on an even deeper level and unlock that knowledge that comes from truly knowing who you are!
Step Up, Stay Grounded, and Get to Work!
Hey guys. It’s no secret that in the recent months tragedy after tragedy has occurred, leaving us feeling scared, vulnerable, and uneasy. Some of us feel these things more than others, and that is okay. Some of us try to block it out and ignore it, and that isn’t okay. As lightworkers, we are going to be confronted with negative situations and we have to know how to handle them, or we won’t be very effective in our healing work.
Our job description is to help the world and be able to spread light and love to heal all that is wrong. We can’t do this by blocking out negativity. Think of a wave of water coming at you, if you anchor yourself into the sand, you have a better chance of staying on your feet when you are anchored.
That is what grounding does for us! By grounding, we remain unmovable in our beliefs and in the light that we are here to spread.
So how can you remain grounded? I’m glad you asked.
- Unplug from the media and technology. It is so easy to get engrossed in your computer, phone, tablet, tv, and whatever else you have. While these things aren’t bad at all (I work at Verizon so they literally help me pay bills) but they are tools that can bring us down and keep us in a cycle of fear energy that we don’t need.
- Take a walk in nature. So this may seem obvious but it can really help to connect with nature and just relax. However, if it is too hot to go outside, then listen to nature music, spend time with your pet, get a plant, something to bring nature to you.
- Ask for help! Know that your Angels are ALWAYS around you and WANT to help you! Sometimes we get lost in all of the hurt and confusion of the world and we wonder where our help is. The answer is all around us. I am so guilty of this. I sit back and wonder, why is this happening? And then I realize that I have a small part in helping this, just like you do. We can ask our Angels to help us get, and stay, grounded and they WILL reply.
- Meditate. This is a hard one for a lot of people, myself included, to do consistently because life does get in the way and we lose our priorities along the way. This isn’t a beat up, but we all do it. Meditation is wonderful for connecting us to Source/God/The Universe and our Angels to receive messages that can help the world grow and help us grow stronger.
- This is one of my favorites to do. You can actually do this as you are sitting down at work, home, or school. Visualize roots coming out of your feet and stretching into the Earth. Take deep breaths in and out and do this for as long as you can, need, or want to.
- I asked the Angels for a message and they said this: “Be Present”. This is remarkable because how often to we worry or think about the future? Way too often. We are hardly ever just present in the moment and we aren’t THANKFUL and GRATEFUL in that space. It’s cliche but true when they say “The Present is a gift”. This is SUPER important to remember because when we take it moment by moment and stop worrying about things that are out of our control, that helps us remain grounded and centered in our bodies and spirits.
- Sending Light to the world. When you do see those horrible news stories, send light to that location and to the people involved. Then CUT YOUR CORDS TO IT! Don’t let it remain a part of your energy field and aura.
- Carrying on from the previous, cut your cords to any place and any person that causes you unrest and don’t be sorry about it. We as lightworkers and sensitive people often feel like we have to be the ‘listening ear’ to ever damn thing in the world and that IS NOT true! If you feel like you are being drained energetically, just walk away. It isn’t rude to put your energetic and spiritual needs FIRST! In fact, you NEED to. You’ve got this! Ask Archangels Michael and Metatron to help you with this, and then ACT on what you think, feel, hear, and see as guidance comes to you.
I really hope that this has helped you. My prayers are with all of us and the world. You’ve got this!
Angel Blessings,
Andrew
