The Discovery of Life Mapping
Article Date: (Wednesday, October 10, 2007)
I would like to introduce "The Discovery of Life Mapping". Today you can begin the process of reshaping your own mind, weaving that which is self-grown. What I teach in mapping is "processes" of owning your own worlds past the spiritual dream and its amnesia of the 3D virtual reality. Click here and you will find some of the pictures for mapping skills. There is a way to tap into your own "appointed time", the immergence that recodes the body and opens the galactic-self.
Since I was a child, I have used these processes and have many stories surrounding my findings. In keeping track of my own desires I found that my journals clarified the objectives, enabling me to achieve the things I wanted to experience. My journals were brief but touching and delivered the results in everything I wanted from accordions', bicycles and clothes, to many other life experiences. By focusing on what I wanted, each desire often led me to new ideas that, in turn, opened me to new goals and life experiences. Each event of my life from childhood until now has actually empowered my own individuality. I later found out that the more I tapped into the belief systems of religion and everyday life environments, the more I detached from my own reality and my own self.
Around my thirties I began to see things had stopped working for me. At this point, I began a quest towards naturally dissolving the things I no longer wanted to experience in my life. As I began reflecting on my journaling I began to see that some of my talents and dreams were inspired by mother's love for beauty and creativity. I wanted to bring those things closer in my awareness. I began to look at the models of what drew me to look back and I saw no matter what I wanted Mother just seemed to be able to create it. This is what inspired me to dream more. I knew I had to find this again because dreams were once alive. Through mind and heart I went on a quest to find me and funny thing it's never stopped showing me the road, even to this day. I feel honored to share my book and these personal life experiences which can and have been used to empower others.
The Beauty of Creating
I remember my first wish that felt so very deep. I wanted to look like the other girls at church, for Easter Sunday. Momma's creative abilities found the way to make me the finest little dress and coat. She simply took the curtains down from the windows, using what we had. I believe this is when I understood dreams and wishes could come true no matter how much or little money one had. I never forgot those curtains coming down and how excited I was wearing my new coat and dress. What I felt was the joy of the beauty Momma had created just for me. In my minds-eye I saw how a little creativity along with working and planning created the desired outcome. These were my first stories that led me to observing and creating from the more simplistic forms of life; ones with meaning and a style of thinking all of their own. They also were my own connections that assisted me to regain and reshape my own worlds. I knew I had to find myself at the age of thirty, and in doing so I would find the keys that opened other worlds that were far greater in their end than it was in their beginnings. Today I use some of these keys of simplicity and have put together a work book of more inspirations.
Artistic Values of Mapping
One of the most profound moments of learning the techniques of mapping actually began in grade school with our book covers. In order to preserve the school books each student was required to cover their own books. This was a project that was to be finished at home with our parents' supervision. It was a community commitment that taught us the value of respect of property. I probably learned the most from observing the reality and outcome of working together. I was always amazed at my mother's precision and patience while at the same time the beauty she put into guiding me to cut the covers in such a way that made each book my own creation. She would follow it by adding a smiley face on the inside of my book cover. Every year I would wait in anticipation for my mother to place those smiley faces in my book and to share the responsibility of her creativity for my books. Then, I began doing some of my own artwork on those covers, drawing pictures of the things I wanted to have and experience. This is when I first began to realize that my own planning created the outcome of my desires. Every year was better than the previous year and I started paying attention to the fact that I was actualizing my desires through my journals and drawings. This discovery inspired me to create what I now call conscious mapping.
Planning
Decorating my books gave me new ideas, enhancing the abilities of discovering my own creations. For example, when I was around twelve years old I wanted a red accordion instead of the little black accordion I already had. A larger accordion would allow me more keys to play the songs that I desired. I wanted to express to others how important this was to me and besides I just wanted a new one. So I placed 150 little notes in every single part of the house before going to church camp; my mother's dishes, sewing machine and even in my father's shaving cream dish. Each note said, "Vote for Astari to get a big red marble accordion." Going off to camp and just wondering what my notes would do was so very exciting for me. It was one of my first experiments that would follow many. Sure enough, I arrived at home after my birthday and there on my bed was a shiny red accordion. It just felt so very good to feel the size and the smell of my new accordion. What I had planned and wished exactly happened for me. It just took a little bit of concentration and organizing the desires of my heart.
Observing My Dreams
Through using the above concepts by the age of ten I could support me for the most part. I was babysitting, earning allowances and doing extra things for cash. By the time I was twelve I had exactly trained my mind to chart what I wanted. At the age of fifteen I had my first official job. Around age sixteen I had my first real car but it was kind of a piece of junk, yet it was mine. I had to do a little better dreaming because at night the holes in my floor board lit my car up like a Christmas tree. By the age of seventeen I had my second car, a 1964 red and white convertible.
Sometimes getting what I wanted I realized that it was not exactly what I dreamed of, so I would have to sit down and recount the cost and learn from what I felt. The biggest gain was that I never saw anything as right and wrong and my thoughts were simple, innocent, and to the point. With this in mind I can understand that everything is an experience and it is what you make it. It is not just magic, positive affirmations, or beliefs that gave me what I wanted. My determination, organization, and management of processes achieved the desired outcomes. There was an old saying I really liked during that time; if you first don't succeed, try try again...
In my late twenties, I realized the importance of mapping and journaling. It began on a very small scale and for a long time I would not know how to name it or call it, so I just used it to teach others to dream and feel good about themselves. One thing I can tell you for sure is that I never had a moment of not having my needs met. Sometimes meeting those needs meant I had to focus more and work harder. It was not always a matter of just magic or "poof" and there it was. My answers came from my feelings rather than belief systems.
Looking back, I remember carefully managing my dreams by writing goals, journaling how I could maintain the levels I wanted. Sometimes before going to Jr. High School I would leave early and just go and sit in the field behind our house where no one could see me. I would just sit there and dream and think of those things I wanted. I used to even draw in the sand the pictures I saw and some way it all would come true albeit work or free it arrived. If something did not come true, I never looked at it as defeat of right or wrong. Rather, I would quickly and carefully map out in my minds-eye another little way and usually those ways were much grander than the first.
The Discovery
One day in my thirties I had the desire to find "that dream" of myself again. Someplace along the way I had lost myself and those innocent dreams of my childhood. With this in mind I began looking back refreshing in consciousness those keys that once actualized my dreams. I began to reapply the discipline of journaling. Ideas and creativity seemed to be more clarified as I planned my days and kept track of what I now desired to experience.
As I write this to you I wanted you to know that journaling is the key to discovering the observation of your own reality. It is what helped me to realize that I was writing my life forwards and backwards. My own paradise of abundance and joy reopened a free-floating space that defined and reorganized my life. My own life inspired me to reopen my worlds for others to see. I later realized that my own stories would not only reopen my worlds but the world of others as well.
Through the interconnections of journaling I began to realize circumstances that seemed impossible, like buying houses and recreating jobs, would actualize and become a reality for my life and family. As I began working towards a ministry license I was more conscious of utilizing these skills. Through my own discoveries and stories I began to teach others to realize their own beauty.
Visions Foretold
By the time I reached my forties I had become more efficient in the mastery of listening, journaling, mapping, and learning to feel the answers for myself. The process shifted and became more fluid and required less effort. I realized that what we feel and desire is most often found to be ourselves. I finally realized that I was the source and that there are simple life skills and commitments to one's self that actually work.
Understanding the roles of the 4D experience; the centrality of our projected existence is paramount to all of us. However, so is the message of graceful living, the end of fear and its separation, the end of fatalism and the opening of a brand new world with all that we have compiled for such a day as this.
Processes and Organizational Skills
I would love to show you the techniques of learning how to manage yourself as a business or system. By opening your own special design, mapping a conscious interconnection, you can open your very own worlds. Today you can begin to feel a new style of thinking, reasoning, and problem solving. By opening the skills of "self" you can enhance and reshape your own mind through simple techniques. Contact Astari and find out how to rewrite the codes, thus allowing yourself to be the compass with the action that reconnects your life to a place of fullness and abundance.

With the above link you will find a few examples towards mapping a new connection for yourself. See what a few others have created in their maps. We have chosen a few selections and classes to give some observation of what mapping consists of. You can also take a small old book and begin to weave in your own conscious mapping. Just get yourself a glue stick, placing your pictures or words on the pages. I suggest you use a small book so that you can easily carry it with you.
