As a visual artist I am accustomed to tuning into my senses and high power/s to develop new ideas. The spiritual adviser/and psychologist ,who was my teacher, was a Gesalt therapist that taught me to tune into the pictures I saw during my psychic healing. When I do a reading I focus on the person before me and begin to pick up images, words, sounds etc. The telephone and internet are great transmitters for people's energy. Sometimes people are afraid that I will see more than necessary. I was taught that nothing the person wants to reveal will be divulged. I use tarot cards in a non-traditional way-more as a focus. This is true of Chinese astrology, numerology, graphology and psychometry (reading of a person's objects). I also use sound, chanting, for chakra cleansing and balancing.
