What are advisors really for? Do we really need them?
This is going to sound strange coming from me because I am an advisor here on keen. What are advisors really for? Do we really need them?
Well first of all, different advisors have different gifts. Some are tarot card readers, some are clairvoyant and some are more into astrology. Different advisors can affect people in different ways. It is my opinion based on what I have seen over the years, that advisors are here more for guidance and confirmation. It is not meant to look at an advisor as GOD. We are not GOD. We don't know EVERYTHING. This is why one advisor may pick up something different than another advisor. Some advisors are good with contacting the dead. Some are good with job issues. Some are best with love issues. Some are good with timing. Some are good with reading people's energies. Different advisors have different gifts. So before you go and criticize an advisor and say that they were a BAD advisor, think about these things. Maybe that particular advisor was not meant for you. Most of you will know if an advisor is meant for you because it will something inside of you that tells you to listen, even if it's information that you don't want to hear. You have to trust your own gut feeling. I do believe that everyone has some gut feeling to a degree. But everyone does not have above average intuition. Some people do, but not everyone. What I mean about above intuition, is gifted people. One's who can read others, rather its reading their energy, reading their intuitions and in some cases reading their thoughts. Even if you are not gifted in the intuitive area, there still should be something inside of you that says, this advisor is right or this advisor is not for me. That doesn't make them a BAD advisor.
It is not meant for an advisor to know everything. The universal intentionally set things up this way, because you have to LIVE!!! I do believe that advisors can be helpful. Even though Im an advisor, I sometimes call other advisors to maybe help bring clarity to a situation that I may not see myself in my own personal life. Sometimes other advisors call me to read for them because of the same reasons. I think that advisors are needed up to a certain point. Think about the eagle. The eagle will raise her young and then when they get a certain point, the eagle pushes her children out of the nest. And if they don't fly, they crash.
In other words, at some point, you have to take the advice that you're getting and work on applying it. If you are one of those people who feel you need advice all the time and you aren't applying it, then you're pretty much wasting your time. I mean, calling an advisor in moderation is ok as long as it's helping you. But when it gets to a point that you are just calling out of habit and not really calling to get information to help yourself, then that's when calling the advisor is not helping you. It's nothing wrong with questions such as when are they going to call, when will I see them again, but the questions that you really should be asking is, what can I do to make myself better out of the situation. What is my lesson to be learned from this. And so on and so on. In other words, don't focus on the frivilous things.
For example, I remember when I was giving someone a reading about 10 years ago and I'll never forget. But she said to me, when is he going to ask me to marry him? He must not love me. We have to get married, that's the only way.
But the problem is, she did not see how controlling she was and that scared her boyfriend. It made him very hesitant to marry her then. I told her to really work on this problem with herself, because if she didn't, she would lose him. I told her, he does love you, but don't push him to marry you so quickly. She went AGAINST my advice and she pushed him into marrying her. They were divorced within the first 3 years and she was devastated. And now she has decided to work on herself. But refusing to do so before then cost her the best love connection that she had in her life.
The point of this story is, focus on the important things, especially when you're getting readings. It doesn't matter if you're going to get married, because if you don't have a solid foundation in the relationship, then it will end anyway. That's why the divorce rate is high here in the U.S. That is a FACT and not an opinion. Focus on what you can do to improve yourself. Now if you've worked on yourself and the other person is refusing to get any better and is causing you stress and pain, well did you ever think that maybe its not meant to be with that person at that particular time? This is not every case, but this is some cases.
The main point here is, advisors are suppose to be here to help you become a better person and to give you clarity on yourself and your situations. That's what they are truly needed for. But when it gets to the point to where you're going overboard and doing too much analyzing, then you get into an area in which maybe you need a friend more than an advisor. This blog is no way trying to offend anyone, but this is what I think and I always believe in speaking the truth, even if it goes against the majority. So before you call an advisor, think about this, what are the important things to know out of the situation? What can you do to improve yourself? Is the other person a problem and are you contributing to the problem? In other words, take some time to think about what questions you want to ask before you call. Think about questions that are important to the situation. Think about questions that will actually help you. Ask yourself this, why am I asking this advisor this particular question? Why do I need to know this? How will this benefit me from knowing this? And if you take the time to do these things, then, making a call to advisors is really worth it.
