Apparently, the earth itself supports/maintains/nurtures at least some layer or aspect of what we might refer to as societal mind. Consider what mind attributes "yellow ray" or solar-plexus chakra has, for example. According to the Ra Material, this support will cease (go into potentiation). If I understand correctly, consequently, yellow-ray learning about ourselves will go unsupported, externally. That is, the training wheels come off. Those "unbalanced" in this area may then feel lost or indecisive, whereas previously they'd been able to successfully identify with the status quo or group mind.

So as far as mind reading goes it must go vastly deeper than I've been able to experience. For me it's a combination of sensing energies, knowing people, but certainly there is also occasionally perceiving the actual thoughts themselves. If I can do that, then someone who's really good at it must be able to do that much more.
There are those that can see and experience another's imagination, their past, present, and future landscapes and navigate them independently or with them. If one is sufficiently balanced, and can see another as "whole", they can also correct another's subtle imbalances by mere thought.
Do you have experiences with these people or know where to find out about them? I'm curious?
Quote:They can work comfortably in symbol and metaphor, which is the language of the mind. For example, see an illness as a dark area and bring light to it, or a frozen aspect of self and dethaw it. This is common practice for any shaman. Carl Jung's "active imagination" is very similar.Precisely, it should be remembered that this is metaphor though. Illness isn't really dark. But these metaphors allow our subconscious to understand what we're trying to tell it and allows us to understand the responses.
In this way, I've seen a few times that metaphorically understanding why some problem is is already a cause for healing. Even if you just know for a fact that the metaphor is not reality. It is sufficient explanation to the subconscious to allow it to heal itself.
A lot of past life insight resulting in spontaneous healing could be explained by that. The subconscious gets it, it makes sense, so it can let go. This doesn't mean it's true.. It just means it's true enough to make sense to the subconscious.
Also in real life the same mechanisms often apply. I put a lot of faith in synchronistic events. Like walking with someone and spotting an animal that's not usually there. And well, all magical work is essentially the invokation of synchronicity.
