Aspects of My Psychic Life
The life I live as a psychic is actually not that very different from the life I lived before I was psychic. I thought it would be so different. Yes, there was that defining moment when I began to channel, but as I grew more into the psychic life, I realized I’d been psychic all along.
I know I’ve written about this before, but it bears
repeating. If this is the article that one person needs to read out of
the eight billion of us on the planet, then it’s worth writing about. If
I had read this article when I was 16 years old, I could have saved
about that many years on my own journey. Not that it would have cut any
corners, but it would have eased my mind about a lot of stuff.
Over the years, I’ve come to believe that we are all of us
born psychic. It’s an ability we have. It’s a sense. But, in order to
live in harmony with your psychic abilities, it helps to be taught that
it is possible. If you were a person who was born into a community, not
just your family, but a community of people who did not speak, then, the
likelihood of you being able to talk at the age of 12 years old would
be rather slim.
It wasn’t until I was a teenager that I had my first psychic
vision of my grandmother, who had passed on years before. It wasn’t like
anything I’d ever experienced before. I told my mother about it, and
she said the words that finally allowed me to eventually seek out this
lifestyle. She said she didn’t doubt at all that it was my grandmother
I’d seen. She then went on to explain to me all the different psychic
stories she had to tell about my grandmother. What she did not say to me
was that maybe I was psychic too.
Perhaps that was my defining moment and not the start of channeling that occurred 20 years later.
I suppose I can say the biggest thing that is different in my
life is that I am never lonely. Never. All I have to do is say, “Hi.
Will you talk to me?” Some times, I just say, “I need a hug.” It’s
enough to keep me going. Granted, there is nothing that will replace the
companionship of family and friends, but if you can’t go to sleep and
it’s already 2 am, those people are asleep and not available for you to
be with. Spirit is.
Am I a quiet person? Yes. I’m a writer. That makes you quiet.
You can’t visit with someone while you are writing. It just doesn’t
work. Writing is something you do by yourself.
The other thing that is different for me is that now I pay
better attention to my gut instincts. It’s especially good when I’m
looking for a good book to read, whether it is already on my bookshelves
at home or if it is being offered for sale online. It’s especially fun
to hear from somebody in Spirit who voices their opinion and says to me,
“Yes, get that.”
One thing that I had thought would happen as I became more
and more psychic was that life’s questions would finally have answers.
What I learned was I had to experience all those different situations
myself. Spirit doesn’t tell all. They teach.
I’ve learned, or really am still learning, patience. I have
learned about understanding and forgiveness. I’ve learned that envy,
jealousy, and hate are harmful and never productive. I’ve learned to
heal my own emotional hurts. I’ve learned that healing never stops. I’ve
learned that nobody is perfect. I’ve learned that failures are never
failures but steps in the right direction.
I’ve learned that positive affirmations are so important to us and that journeys are not huge leaps but many steps.
These are things I never in my wildest dreams would have
thought I could say I’ve encountered during the portion of my life where
I was psychic. Much of what I imagined life would be like as a psychic
has never happened. Being psychic, for me, is much like a comfortable
pair of slippers. It just fits. It makes sense. It’s made me a better
person.
Here’s something that happened as a psychic. I learned not to
be so serious. Life is as fun as a toddler who can’t stop giggling. In
fact, the first words Spirit said to me as I struggled to channel was,
“Be as innocent as you were as a child.” The next day, I began
channeling.
It took me five years of concentrated study to learn how to
channel. I’ve seen other people do it in the space of ten minutes. I
know if I could do it, anybody can.
Have a lovely holiday season. Give thanks for your life
exactly as it is now and how it might be if you were to take the leap
and allow Spirit more space in it. Allow yourself to be with the world
around you. It matters more than you know.
Thanks for reading and see you next time.
