Israel's Wealthiest Woman Says She Can See the Future

TEL AVIV The office door has a steel vault veneer, and Shari Arison -- controlling stockholder in Israel's largest bank and its largest construction company, heiress to the Carnival Cruise Lines fortune and head of a long list of other undertakings -- has a lot to protect.
And as with any proper vault, this one is full of surprises.
Fairy figurines fill a knickknack shelf, and paintings of fairies hang from the soft-toned walls. Statues of dolphins leap from a cream-colored carpet, and goldfish gurgle in a tank just behind a chair. A yard-long see-through candleholder with a dozen flickering votives is angled across Arison's desk, looking like it connects to Kabbalah or the Upanishads or Area 51 or Something Larger Than Us, but which she says is there just because.
But the biggest jolt comes from the woman in the executive chair: Arison -- billionaire ($2.7 by Forbes's most recent estimate), perhaps the richest woman in the Middle East, a major force in Israeli philanthropy -- claims that she can see the future.
This is much bigger than a parlor trick. In her new book published this summer in Israel, the 51-year-old Miami native says she felt the Indonesian tsunami sweeping over the land two months before it happened and sensed Hurricane Katrina pummeling New Orleans. In an interview, Arison says she also "saw the writing on the wall" before the global economic crash.

New Things Coming This Year
Welcome to 2009! I'm very glad to see you here.
I will be starting my "Deepening Spiritual & Psychic Awareness" workshop this month (January) at the Learning Light. I started this blog in anticipation of that workshop, so I'll be posting more as time goes on and we get interesting stuff from the workshops to talk about here.
The workshop will be meeting on the 4th Sundays of January and February, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm, and then will be switching to 1st Sundays from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm from then on. Don't worry about writing it all down. It will be published in the Learning Light newsletter and on their website (at http://www.learninglight.net), and I'll be posting reminders here, of course.
So the first meeting will be Sunday, January 25, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The fee is $20 per class (but I think it goes down to $15 per class starting in March). Please dress VERY comfortably.
Most people find that deepening their spiritual awareness automatically increases their psychic awareness and also facilitates their manifesting abilities. Of course, you can take the class for the spiritual benefits without desiring the psychic development benefits, and I assure you that it will be an enriching experience for you.
But my own experience has been that deepened spiritual awareness is an important cornerstone on the psychic development path. So if your main interest is in psychic development, take this workshop.
Much more to come later. Wishing you a magical and wonderful week!
