Sometimes we can become "deadlocked" in the physical. It seems that no matter what we try, burning candles, incense, nature walks, nothing seems to work.
But there is something else. The natural cleansing power of nature. Whether it is raining OR if it isn't, a shower. If it's raining, go stand in it and visualize it's cleaning energy washing over you, charging your chakras, cleansing you of negativity. If rain isn't available when you need it, hop in the shower.
Remember, you're not trying to cleanse your body, you are cleansing your energy. You wouldn't take soap or shampoo out in the rain, would you? Then don't do it with this shower when you are trying to cleanse your energy. Let the water naturally wash your body and with it, your soul.
As the famous motivator, Zig Ziglar said, "
Motivation is important – not permanent. I am frequently asked the question, “Why is it that some people get really motivated after listening to you, but after a while slip back into their old, negative ways?” The question really is, “Is motivation permanent?” The answer is no – but then neither is bathing."
The same can be said about your spiritual energy. It has to be maintained, like personal hygiene. Remember what we send out spiritually will manifest in the physical. Sometimes, we have to do it the other way around.
I guess cleanliness is next to godliness.
It has been my experience that from time to time, I encounter people seeking spiritual counseling who may be doubtful or even skeptic. This is a special time for most psychics because it allows us the opportunity to expose these individuals to new life experiences that can transform or even accelerate their spiritual connection.
In most cases, those who may be doubtful tend to feel the need to test the psychic during their session. I feel that this is essential for the individual to validate that these gifts are real if the information being provided seems generalized.
But to intentionally deceive a psychic just to see if they pick up on the situation is simply the wrong way to approach these validations. I would like to provide an example. I had a client call who asked me, "
What is happening with my job?"
I didn't ask any questions, I merely stated my first impressions that they were downsizing to reduce costs and that they were either being bought out or merging with another company. Possibly a relocation, but that felt less likely.
I asked the client to validate if there was indeed downsizing or layoffs occurring and she said no. She said they were firing people. Firing people is what is known as "positive attrition" and is a technique used to downsize, especially if the firing is occurring on a large scale for even minor offenses.
As I looked into the cards to find additional validations, I saw that her situation would remain unchanged, but she would long for the good ole days before this all began. I stated my impressions and tried to advise her not to worry, things would be ok and I didn't feel she would lose her job.
She then informed me that she had already been fired. Immediately, I recognized that she was attempting to test me by asking a deceiving question. How can I focus on what's happening with her job when she didn't have one? And my focus for the reading was not on her, but on the question she asked, which was about the company. I immediately stopped the reading, apologized and informed her that I didn't know what this meant.
After the call, I meditated on the situation and emailed her a complete reading and how I came to the conclusions that I made based on her question. I offered her a full refund and sent her 5 free minutes. The response I received from her was negative, so I accepted that and moved on, but felt lead to write this article to help new clients trying this experience and to help readers who are faced with similar situations.
I honestly didn't pick up on the fact that she was unemployed and even if I did, I wouldn't call her out on it and ask her, "What job, you've been fired." That would be disrespectful in every sense of the word and violates the unwritten code of a psychic to be sensitive, caring and supportive of their clients.
So if you would like to ask a question to test a psychic's abilities, the best way is to refrain from providing information. As I said above, I asked no probing questions. I simply shared my impressions asked if I was on target and used the Tarot to validate the situation so that I could confirm for myself that the information I received was accurate.
If you are asking about a potential love interest who is in a relationship, and you want to test the psychic, simply ask about the person and withhold the information about the third party to see if the psychic picks up on it. Don't ask questions that are misleading such as "Is he faithful to me?" when you are not even in a relationship with him.
A psychic will take you at your word about what you tell them. Even if we receive contradicting information that would suggest we are being tested or lied to, we will not attempt to call you out on it. We may say, I had an impression of "this", but it seems to be inaccurate because you've already confirmed the situation is not like that.
Ask some questions that you know the answer to, but not something super complicated "Why does he have that tattoo?" when the answer is something like after getting shot by his brother and have major reconstructive surgery, he had some plastic surgery that was done to hide the scar, but that didn't work, so he got the tattoo to cover it.
So be honest with your questions and don't attempt to trick your psychic because even if we feel this is a test, we will do our best to always take you at your word. This is a sign of trust and respect and this is the very core of how we do what we do.
And if you are a reader, don't resent being tested if it is being done in the right way. Try to limit your questions, share your impressions first and ask for validations. Don't try to make wrong impressions fit into the reading after new information comes forth that contradicts it. Simply admit that you may have made a mistake and apologize and ask the client if they would like to continue with the reading. Offer free minutes and a refund if you feel that you may have not serviced your customer well.
Also understand that you cannot connect with everyone. Sometimes Spirit won't share the information with us because it may involve a life lesson. When you receive no information, be truthful about it. Sometimes people can also just be closed off and may be putting up mental barriers to "not give anything away."
Readers, please remember that honesty and trust work both ways.
Blessings,
