I wish to thank the readers of this blog for their interest and support.

It has been exciting to publish my book online as I wrote it; I know that many people were following my blog, reading my book as I wrote it. I thank those readers for their patience as I took entire chapters down, edited and rearranged the content. During this year of writing Parallel Mind, it was my intention that the reader have a peek into my life as an artist. After all, it is a book on creativity, why not let the reader see the creative process in action? I thank you for your interest and hope you enjoyed reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it.

I hope you will come back to see the progress of Parallel Mind as it goes to print. I will keep you posted. Meanwhile why don’t you play my online Tarot?

Transformational Tarot by Aliyah Marr

If you decide to buy Transformational Tarot on CD, and you mention that you heard of the Tarot through the Parallel Mind blog, I will ship a signed copy of Transformational Tarot to you.

Author Aliyah Marr has taken her book Parallel Mind offline prior to publishing. Excerpts from the chapters are available online in the “Pages” section to the right. Look for the book in electronic format and in print soon.

Readers have less than a week to read the first six chapters of the online book Parallel Mind before the book is taken off-line for editing and publishing.

Personally, I like to read books in print, and I assume that most of you feel the same. After all, who takes a computer to the beach or curls up in bed with it? I have always preferred to read books myself. However, it has been exciting to publish my book online as I wrote it. It is my wish that everyone enjoy the creative process of writing this book as much as I do.

Now in the final chapter of the book that began nearly nine months ago. Magic numbers, 7 and 9. Seven for magic, nine for birth. With the completion of Chapter Seven, and with the end of the year 2007, I am already planning a new book, this time about creativity in the business environment: how to set up the proper structure that allows creativity to flourish in the work place.

Last night I was experiencing an emotional morass. So I wrote a couple poems on one of my other blogs:

http://thetawave5.wordpress.com

The effect of writing my feelings out in poetry is transformative. When done, I am fine, better than fine; I feel great. It’s a kind of sublimation, going from the state of feeling terrible, to feeling absolutely wonderful. Your emotions are no longer just yours, they are out there for everyone to share, no longer roiling around without meaning or direction, but serving the purpose of communicating with others. If nothing else, they are now outside you. Even if you show your work to no one else, are not proud of what you have produced, you can experience the basic therapeutic effect of creative activity.

The opportunity to not only express but to transform your emotions is what is available to everyone who chooses the consciously creative life.

Last week it came to me that I couldn’t write about creativity without talking about the major source of creative energy — sex. Of course, this subject naturally had to be in Chapter 6, sex being the Latin prefix meaning “six.” The material that was in Chapter 6 I put it back into Chapter 5.

Look for the new Chapter 6 — The Secret of Sex.

Parallel Mind, Aliyah Marr’s book about creative manifestation is going through final rewriting in all chapters posted up until now. Read it soon: as soon as Chapter 7 is posted, the other chapters of the book on the blog (which are available to read for free) will be reduced to excerpts. The book will then be available for sale first as an e-book, then in written and audio form.

Chapter Six — Putting It All Together (working title) is where the magic happens. This is the chapter that shows how to use the connections between the mind, body, emotions revealed in former chapters. The alchemical reaction: healthy mind/emotions frees creativity into full expression, transforming the individual into a conscious creative.
