I remember going to my very first reading from a lady at a bookstore. I was 36 and pregnant with my youngest, who is now 17. I had avoided psychic readers and tarot cards up to this point because I was afraid that they would tell me something bad... especially about myself - not to mention some creepy Ouija board experiences from middle school, ha ha.
So, when a friend persistently invited me to "the psychic reader" at the bookstore, I reluctantly said yes (It's fascinating how God's always working in the background on our behalf and at least half of the time we don't recognize it).
The reader asked me to put my hands on her table with my palms facing up, as I did, she jumped back and put her own hands behind her back. My brain started racing, and my thoughts went something like this...omg, there is something wrong with me. Does she see something bad? Am I going to die?... Then she bursts out and says, "You are incredibly psychic." You know how to, and she lists out various forms of being psychic. She then proceeded to tell me that I am as psychic as she is and that I could do what she does.
- It might come as a shock to you, it was for me too, that I didn't already know this about myself. -
Up to this point, I had experienced many psychic events of my own that were profound and unmanaged. These psychic events would seem to come out of nowhere and without explanation. What I didn't realize at the time, was the raw potential in what was happening (don't worry, I use that raw potential now to help all of you, yay!).
In my youth and up to the point of 36, I didn't have a teacher or mentor to ask questions to or to help me feel more supported with my intuitive gifts (truthfully I had no idea that I needed one or that people like this actually existed). Throughout those 36 years I found that my intuition continued to grow strong, I would receive messages while I was awake or at night in my dream space, I'd then give messages of support or warning to my inner circle.
Feeling the clear definition in your intuition is learned through practice
What I didn't know is that my environment would turn out to be one of my greatest teachers and gave me ample opportunities to practice my intuitive nature in order to thrive. This is true for so many of you that have had tumultuous life experiences and you will find a direct relationship between your intuition and your history. The gift is that your intuition is more defined compared to someone who had a bit of a vanilla history.
And...the more intuitive you become the safer you actually feel. This is because YOUR intuition comes directly from source, so the more aligned you are to your intuition, the more aligned you are to Source, pretty cool, right!
Weird Is My Normal
Does this sound familiar......I'd spent many years trying to be "normal" trying to hide or simply fit in. The last thing I wanted anyone to know about me was that I was (a weirdo) psychic.
But it was THAT friend who invited me to the bookstore, and that psychic reader that saw my weird as normal, who were placed on my path, and who would initiate the beginning of my metamorphosis.
At that time, I learned that my psychic energy was incredibly powerful and that I was unknowingly throwing it around and sometimes accidentally creating chaos.
So, I began a journey that would help me understand my intuitive gifts. I not only unlocked my intuitive potential but expanded my abilities and began to truly accept my authentic self.
Now, my intuition is the resource that helps others unlock their spiritual potential, connect to their healing abilities, and rise to new levels of growth.
What will your intuition help you to do?
