			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Sense of Inner Knowing</h2>
<p>The 6th Sense, Intuition.<br />
Are there some things that you just know, you don’t know how you know, you just do? You get a feeling in the pit of your stomach or your heart sings with joy and information just appears as if from nowhere.<br />
You meet a work colleague for the first time and instantly you recognise a comrade. Or your walking down a dark street and the hair bristles on your arm alerting you to walk the other way quickly. You meet a guy that a friend has lined you up with but you sense something is off with him only to discover later that he wasn’t very nice to his last girlfriend. This is your intuition your 6th sense working. Everyone has this ability to tap into his or her intuition only we often don’t listen to it. Or we think that little voice in our head is wrong or simply that this little voice “what does it know”.<br />
Today is all about tuning into this 6th sense and developing it bringing it out into our awareness.<br />
It is an exceptionally useful life tool one that you carry with you at all times. It can get you out of most of life’s challenging situations and helps you to make excellent business and personal decisions.<br />
Like a muscle the more you use it the more it will develop, Many creative, artistic, entrepreneurial people have highly developed six senses they use it to create a successful life for them selves.<br />
How many entrepreneurs do you know of who never finished school but they are multimillionaires. They listened to their gut feelings and make decisions based on an inner knowing that they are on track. They trust the information they are receiving and when they are off track they are able to quickly recognise this and change direction. They often don’t listen to what others have to say are highly driven and walk a slightly different path to most people. Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, Donald Trump, Oprah Winfrey, are all highly intuitive and successful people.<br />
Are you aware of your intuition and do you listen to it. If so, how do you.<br />
Where in your body do you feel certain sensations, do you get a feeling in your gut, or your head or a part of your body such as goosebumps when you know you are right about something.<br />
Becoming aware of specifically where and how you feel things so you can easily recognise them will be part of awakening your intuition. How do certain situations make you feel when you watch different types of movies do you know what the outcome is going to be, do you know what someone is going to say before they say it. Do you know how other people are going to react before they do, look back at decisions that you have made instinctively where someone else may have suggested not to do something but you knew it would be the right thing to do and you were right. Or have you done something because someone told you to and you knew it was the wrong thing to do and you were right. Why didn’t you listen to your intuition that little voice inside of you?<br />
Take note this week of all the signs and little voices and feelings  that you receive and see where you feel them write them down. Be conscious of them don’t worry if at first your not always on target this takes practise and we are only human after all mistakes do happen. But after a while you will become stronger in this area and you will know when to act upon it wisely and safely and with a positive outcome.<br />
We will delve deeper into this as we continue this process and there are tools that you will learn to use to heighten your ability for now it is coming to the understanding that inside all of us we have this gift bringing this into our conscious awareness is the beginning of unfolding it.<br />
If you are already aware and using your intuition you can still use these methods to fully bring it into your awareness there may be something you have overlooked or an area you thought you were using but you only half were. Again there is nor right and wrong as we are all individuals and have different ways of interpreting information that we receive. Have fun and if there is something that I haven’t mentioned here that you do or other methods that you use or find useful to tap in to your intuition practise them and let me know what works best for you.<br />
Please remember that we are all different with varying abilities, strengths and weaknesses don’t worry if you can’t find it quite yet you eventually will. Be patient experiment and enjoy the experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Sense of Touch</h2>
<p>There is a lot that you will be able to do with this sense especially now that you have worked on some of the other senses.<br />
You will have seen the various textures and colours that surround you Having experienced them and become aware of the difference smells and sounds that filter through your everyday lives.<br />
Now I would like you to become aware of the physical feeling of different things that surround you.<br />
There are different ways to feel things emotional and literally  and for this exercise we are going to concentrate on the physical literal experience of  actually feeling/touching something such as when you rub your hand over sandpaper it may feel rough and scratchy on your skin slightly painful if you rub too hard and fine sand paper will have a different feel to rough sandpaper.<br />
We’ll delve into the emotional feeling another time.<br />
So lets have a bit of fun experimenting with various  physical feeling . I’ll outline a few suggestions but feel free to use your imagination and come up with your own ideas.<br />
I’ll start with combing your hair, (that’s assuming you have any) what do you feel  whilst you are brushing your hair and where do you feel it. The pulling on your scalp, the moving down your hair the feel of the brush in your hand . or is you have no hair and you shave your head how does it feel putting the shaving cream and and removing it is it bristly what does bristly feel like.<br />
How is it  brushing your teeth can you feel the sensation of the toothpaste on your tongue the bristles of the brush moving slowly or faster.,<br />
Cooking can you feel the heat from the stove or barbeque, eating do you feel the food as it enters your mouth the crunch of the lettuce the liquid sliding down after you swallow water or something fizzy is there a different feeling.<br />
What does it feel like to swim the feel of the water against your skin and the movement of your limbs. Walking, where do you feel these sensations are they in your bones, your heart, your head, your stomach, how do you feel when your hungry when your full do you know the difference, .<br />
How do the keys on the computer feel when you touch them, the skin of another person, how does breathing feel, stubbing your toe. When you are hot or cold.<br />
Make note of different sensations and really take the time to observe them and write them down. Again this is to bring your feelings into awareness.<br />
Take time to feel as you may notice something you missed at first.<br />
Next time we’re touching on our intuition our inner knowing our sixth sense and one that many of use but don’t even know it. Now that you have opened the other 5 senses you’ll be able to tap into your intuition with ease.<br />
First finish the feeling exercise and then we can play even more effectively.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Sense of Taste</h2>
<p>Having awakened your sight and sound senses already  today we’re going to have a bit of fun.</p>
<p>You’ll need a bit of daring here, nothing too challenging I promise.<br />
The sense you are going to explore today is taste.<br />
Gustatory  (taste) is the ability to detect flavour, be it sweet; sour salty and the Japanese term unami, which means ‘good taste’.<br />
Taste is an amazing sense and is often forgotten and done automatically and over time may even become numb and oblivious to sense<br />
Many of us eat unconsciously or drink in excess dulling our taste senses. They can be reawakening.<br />
Some of us have heightened taste buds making them very sensitive to the taste of all things.<br />
There are various places that different tastes affect us on our tongue, sour or sweet is felt in different places such as on the side of our tongue or at the back or the very tip.<br />
This is where you can have a lot of fun.<br />
Taste everything that you normally would and take note of where you notice this taste is it on your tongue further back or at the side is there another sensation linked with it such as hot or cold.  Can you taste hot or cold? Does the taste linger or leave immediately. Do you like it or tolerate it or is it unpleasant.<br />
Toothpaste, salt, chilli, sugar, chocolate, oranges, coffee, tea, milk, mud, sugar, vegetables, all taste different. How.<br />
Try something new and see what happens. You may find by doing this that things you thought you didn’t like you actually do or the other way round.  Sometimes taste becomes a habit. Can you live without that taste and would you like to add a few new ones. Not keen on artichokes give them a go.<br />
Take your time close your eyes, open your eyes is they’re a difference how something tastes with them open or closed. When you’re tired, hungry, not hungry… what tastes are you noticing that you didn’t before.<br />
Take notes. Have a friend put together five different tastes and get you blindfolded and then try them (no mean tricks here we don’t want to put you off) compare notes do it to each other.<br />
No set rules, experiment make it fun.<br />
I’ll touch base with you shortly to see how you go.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Sense of sound</h2>
<p>Yesterday you looked at your sense of sight and today we are going to discover our sense of sound.<br />
Everyday we are bombarded with various sounds many we have shut out, some we have no choice to hear such as a train or a vehicle on the freeway, airplanes flying overhead or a baby crying.<br />
Today I would like you take specific notice of all of the sounds that you come across and make note of them really take your time to listen, explore every sound that you encounter<br />
What sounds do you regularly notice and what sounds have you blocked out.<br />
Can you hear the coffee machines swoosh, sneezes, do they sound different from humans when it is a dog sneezing.  With music can you differentiate between the music and the words being sung.  When you hear tapping on a table top, the engine of the car or a fridge, the ping of a microwave  or phones ringing, the pounding waves of the  ocean, the slience in a snow field a baby breathing .what do the sounds sound like .<br />
Some people live their entire lives never hearing a thing ,can you imagine how that would be.  Put earplugs in for an hour how does that sound.<br />
If you were hearing something for the first time would you think it was what you were actually hearing or is it because after many years you have learned what a particular sounds is so you don’t have to think what is it.<br />
If you heard a cat growl would you know it was a cat and not a person. How does the tone of your voice sound when you are happy, sad, angry, frisky. Can you change that tone once you notice you are doing it.<br />
What does the sound of tapping on a glass filled with water with a spoon sound like  and what does it sound like empty.<br />
If you are musically inclined and fortunate enough to have any instruments lying around pick them up and explore the different sounds and notes that they create. What happens when you strike a wrong cord does anything happen in your body do you physically cringe or move. Why do you think this is. Don’t worry if you don’t have access to instruments there are enough sounds out in the world that you can explore.<br />
Make notes of the different sounds in your journal specifically what sounds are around you that you haven’t noticed for a while that you shut off.  Why do you think you no longer hear certain sounds and are you able to turn your awareness of that sound on and off.<br />
Sounds can alert us to danger such as a car horn being constantly held down to alert you the car is near, or a child screaming after hurting themself. Or silence when you are in the forrest and the animals are listening to the energy of the ground before a tremble.<br />
Can you hyper focus and cut out al noise when you are thinking or working. When you go into a shopping centre what does each different shop musc make hear do you want to stay in that shop or walk out immediately .Does the sound relax or excite you. When you listen to soothing music what sounds in the music are the ones that you enjoy.<br />
 Learn to decipher your choices and not what others inflict upon you. Do you like the sound of rap, or regaee or jazz or hip hop or rock. Do you go crazy by the sound of the TV being on or the radio or do you even notice that they are on or off.<br />
Talk to friends about different sounds ask them what they like and don’t like. Listen to the sound of their voice whilst they are talking to you.<br />
Do you hear voices in your mind sending you answers to questions you ask yourself. Really tap into sound. If you think of other things to do that make more sense to you regarding sound then by all means have a go. I look forward to hearing about it.<br />
Don’t worry about the why quite now once you have truly experienced all of the 6 senses things will become more apparent and I’ll help you to tie it all together.<br />
Have fun turn the music up and enjoy the sound experience.<br />

<p>Do you really smell the world around you?<br />
Dogs have an ability to smell 1000 times more then humans.  Which is why they make great detectors. We would be sniffing people when we met them instead of saying hi ,can you imagine that.<br />
Smell also known as olfactory can be a very underrated sense to many of us unless we make our livings testing wine.<br />
By now I think you have the hang of what I’m going to get you to do. Yes you guessed it; I’m going to have you smell everything.<br />
To differentiate this from taste it is often useful to shut your eyes so the familiar is reduced.<br />
What smells surround you, when walking in a city street can you smell the grime, the car exhaust. Walking in the forest do you notice the pine needles and the grass and mud and bark how different do they smell from each other? On the beach does the air have a certain smell what is it? Does the water of the ocean smell the same or different from the water coming from a tap or similar to the sea air.<br />
What smell is n your kitchen, when you’re cooking, opening the fridge ,burning the toast? Does the smell hit you in different parts of your body inside your nose or at the tip? Your bathroom will smell different after you have used it over your partner. Notice the change.  In the bedroom can you smell the line dry sheets over the dryer dried sheets ,the carpet ,the curtains or blinds all have different smells. , How do they smell strong, light, harsh, delicate familiar strange, different.<br />
Can you easily recognize how something smells and what it is? Are you ever wrong? Can you pick out the different fragrance in a perfume or after-shave is it a heady strong rich smell or fruity or flowery or citrus. What does freshly mown grass smell like? Where do you notice the smell in your body are you reactive to it.<br />
Do you need to see where the smell is coming from before you notice it or recognise it or is it instant recognition.<br />
Write down the different smells that you have experienced the smells that were there but that you had shut out the smells that lingered the ones your friend could smell but you couldn’t. Do the blind test with smell make note of the differences blind folded and with your eyes open.<br />
Have a bit of fun with this smell some things you might not usually choose to smell and see how you react. You might surprise yourself something you thought you might not like the smell of  is actually not half as bad as you imagined.<br />
You’re nearly there only 2 more senses to go  until the last one  which will be different to the other five. It’s my favourite.<br />
Let me know how your going and what things you’ve chosen to smell that I haven’t mentioned.<br />
Chat soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Oracle and Tarot Cards</h2>
<p>Using Oracle and Tarot cards can be a great way to receive messages and guidance. I am going to outline some basic information about Oracle and Tarot cards to see if they resonate with you.<br />
Cards are a divinational tool that have the potential to wake up your senses they are used as a guide to answer some of life’s questions. They can help you to choose a path and understand the past present and future. Often they are a valuable tool for your life’s journey.  They are however not for everyone and it won’t take you long to discover if your meant to work with them or not.<br />
Oracle cards can be learned quickly and easily Tarot takes much longer.<br />
How to decide between Oracle and Tarot and choosing which deck is best suited to you.<br />
 You may find each time you look at various packs of cards that one pack will leap out at you.  You would then hold the deck and look at each card (if possible) they would resonate with you and you will be compelled to buy them. Another good thing to do is when you to find a deck, leave the shop and if after a few days you are still thinking of them as though they were calling you then you will know they were the right ones and you should go back and buy them this also saves on impulse purchases. Occasionally it is how you are feeling at the time that attracts you to some things and the next day you no longer need that energy so take your time and choose wisely.<br />
Once you have chosen your cards keep them safe In their box or a special bag as they collect energy from their surroundings. There are many card deck bags for sale and if you have tarot it’s best to keep them in a special place. Because I have so many oracle cards I keep them in their box as it’s easier to know which cards are which. This is a very personal thing so make up your own mind here.<br />
Now I have them what do I do with them?<br />
The concept of oracle cards is to empower you in a positive way. There is no dark or hidden meanings in the card they are uplifting with words and pictures that resonate with what is going on in your life at the current time and what has transpired and what will potentially become.<br />
The absolutely amazing thing about Oracle cards is the way that whatever question you ask them, they give you exactly what it is you need to hear at the current point in your life. Every time you ask the cards ‘what is it I am meant to hear to day’ or ‘what message am I to be given today ‘it is relevant to you and gives you guidance on a way to move forward.<br />
There are a variety of ways to pull the cards but the most frequently used is the one or three card option. You can pull one card daily for guidance and message.<br />
First it is important to connect to your cards so the first time that you use the cards open the pack and look at each card what does the card feel /look like. Then hold each card up to you heart. This helps to connect your vibration into the cards.<br />
 To begin your first reading simply hold the pack of cards in your hands shuffle them until you feel like stopping then pull one card either from the top or anywhere within the deck it is really what feels right for you. Then read what is on the card and use the booklet that comes with them that will be your message for the day. After you become familiar with the one card reading you can move to the three card reading.<br />
The three card reading gives a picture of what was the situation (the past) what it currently is (the present) and what will happen (the future). You will find that when you do a reading for yourself you blend the three cards together to ‘paint’ a picture of the whole event and see what information you glean from it.  You can mix several packs up and line three cards from each pack to give you a bigger picture. There are many other spreads you will be able to explore as you progress I suggest you begin with the one and three cards first<br />
You can learn to read oracle cards easily over time and with practise.<br />
Spend some time connecting with your cards each day  choose a card and ask for a daily message. “What message am I meant to receive today’.<br />
Think of a person you know ask the card the same question but for them. Do this for your family and friends and notice that the cards that are pulled are more relevant to the person you pulled them for then you. Can you notice the difference? Some people prefer to pull cards for other people others prefer the people to pull cards their own cards. Practise helps to decide how to work best with them there is no right and wrong way to do it.<br />
Oracle Cards<br />
There are many different varieties of oracle cards by different people the some of the most common cards are by Doreen virtue, Sonia Choquette, Toni Carmine Salerno ,Lucy Cavendish and Stacey Demarco.<br />
The concept of oracle cards is to empower you in a positive way. There is no dark or hidden meanings in the card they are uplifting with words and pictures that resonate with what is going on in your life at the current time and what has transpired and what will potentially become.<br />
The absolutely amazing thing about Oracle cards is the way that whatever question you ask them, they give you exactly what it is you need to hear at the current point in your life. Every time you ask the cards ‘what is it I am meant to hear to day’ or ‘what message am I to be given today ‘it is relevant to you and gives you guidance on a way to move forward.<br />
Tarot<br />
Most tarot cards stem from the Rider Waite design and date way back in history and there is much written about them I am only giving you a very brief description of the tarot in this guide and I would suggest if you are interested in Tarot and want to start doing tarot card readings for your self and others that you attend a formalised course run by a professional tarot reader as their years of experience can circumnavigate so much. For example every number, colour and symbol on the tarot cards has a meaning including what the actual card means. There are also astrological and elemental forces in each suit.<br />
In addition to the above there are many other things to take into consideration such as what emotions do you feel when you look at the card? What stories do you see in the pictures? What is the overall mood? What do you think this card might mean?<br />
The different suits also have meanings and I will give you a very brief outline of what some of the meanings are to let you see if anything resonates with you to help you to decide if tarot is for you.<br />
Tarot are divided into Major and Minor Arcana and suits.<br />
There are also oracle tarot they differ in as much as they have changed the name of some of the major arcana to keep all readings in the light. The following is based on the Oracle Tarot by Lucy Cavendish there are 62 cards in the deck. The Oracle Tarot major arcana are as follows<br />

Because there are many varied ways to read cards it is best to choose the type of cards you wish to explore and once you have them you will be guided by the instruction book inside the deck how to use them as well as creating your own unique style. The objective is to have fun let go of ego (worrying about the outcome will you be right or wrong) and explore the inner meaning that you get from each card.<br />
Carry them with you and pull them out every time you have a free moment to practise soon they will become an integral part of you.<br />
Please remember that cards do not replace your own common sense and should only ever be used as a guide.<br />
Once you have purchased your cards do a one card reading every day for yourself . Prepare to be enlightened. amazed, excited, intrigued, surprised. Most importantly have fun and enjoy what unfolds.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Why do people come for Psychic Readings?</h2>
<p>The reasons may seem varied and far reaching, but the basic purpose a person comes for a Reading is to get answers to questions they don’t feel they have themselves.<br />
So what should the person coming to a Psychic expect from a reading?<br />
Professionalism, respect, courtesy, honesty, integrity, discretion, knowledge, guidance, direction and answers.<br />
Are all Psychics the same?<br />
No there are as many different Psychics as there are people coming to them. Many Psychics specialise in a variety of modalities that interest them. This could include past life regression therapy, crystal healing, Reiki, Mediumship, Oracle or Tarot Cards, Distance healing, online readings, face to face, predictive, remote viewing, astrology, numerology, charkras. Just to name a few things.<br />
So how do you know which one to go to?<br />
Research and word of mouth areexcellent ways to find a Psychic that may suit you, ask around. Internet, do you resonate with the look or feel of the site and what the person is saying?  You will have a rough idea of what you are wanting such as Healing or Guidance does the Psychic offer that? You will find yourself being drawn to a specific reader and invariably you always end up with the one you’re meant to at that time. However in my opinion you will get a lot more from a Reading if you go prepared by knowing why your there and choosing a Reader that offers what your looking for. You wouldn’t go to the Doctor to have your teeth cleaned.<br />
But what if you don’t know what you’re looking for?<br />
You’ve heard of Psychics and you have a vague idea what they do but you have no idea what some of the things they offer are. What do you do then? Go with an open mind and trust that you will be given what it is you need at that time. When I say this however I do not mean hand over your common sense to the individual you are seeing. Like any profession there are good ones and less than good ones so be mindful and listen to your gut instincts when you are having a Reading. Is the Reader able to validate what they are saying or doing? Do they seem credible? Does it feel right to you?<br />
Recording the Reading.<br />
A lot will be said during a reading and some Psychics tape their Readings you can also take notes please know that you will get exactly what you need information wise and you will retain everything that you are meant to so don’t be too worried about this part. A lot will depend on the type of reading you choose.<br />
During the Reading<br />
If you have come prepared with written questions ask them. Be open to what answers you receive having a preconceived idea of what answers you’ll be given is not useful. Often you will have your thoughts validated and only be told what you already know. That is fine as you are there to discover that you are on the right track and to keep going. Again it will all depend on what you are meant to receive on the day. Be prepared for frank honest answers many Psychics do not beat around the bush and will call a spade a spade. Remember your there for answers not just to hear what you want. So long as the reader has your best interests at heart they will prepare you before hand. If you don’t understand something ask ,this is your time and it’s important that you go away with more clarity than when you came<br />
After the Reading<br />
You will have received a lot of information during your Reading and often it can take a while to settle into your mind. Don’t try to analyse everything straight after. Take some time to let things mull through your mind you may find that a few days or even weeks later<br />
Something will become clear to you a question will be answered a bit like an ’ah ha’ moment. That is perfectly normal and often comes with a feeling of relief. Let everything filter through at it’s own pace forcing it stops the natural flow.<br />
Free Will<br />
Everyone has free will and it is important to remember this. Just because a Psychic has told you something may happen you have the choice to make it happen or not.<br />
Never go to a Psychic on a regular weekly basis it is vital that you learn to stand on your own two feet and begin to listen and trust your own advise. Psychics should only be used every six months or so.<br />
The path you choose in your life is ultimately up to you so do not hand over your power to anyone else ever. Use the information that you have been given as a guide a direction to follow if it feels right to you and if the direction you have been given is not one you want to choose then change it. The Psychic should offer you information that is for your highest good and options, guidelines to lead you there. Ultimately what you get from a reading will depend on what you put in and what you choose to do with the information you have been given.<br />
Enjoy the process and let me know how you get on.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Pendulums</h2>
<p>A pendulum is a simple tool that you can use to assist you to tap into your subconscious and bring information into your conscious mind helping you to make decisions with more clarity.<br />
There are many pendulums that you can purchase from spiritual shops you can also make your own.<br />
To make your own get a piece of string approximately 30cm (1foot) long place it through a wedding ring hold both ends of the string with the ring dangling in the middle.<br />
Pendulums will give a yes and no or maybe answer and will either move clockwise, anticlockwise, back and forward, side to side or remain stationary. So before you start to use it you need to check what direction yours will go.<br />
Hold your pendulum in your dominant hand (the one you write with) in front of you at a comfortable distance place your other hand palm facing up a few inches below.<br />
To check to see which direction it will go ask it  “is my name (insert your name) the pendulum will begin to move you may have to ask it once or twice as sometimes especially when you are first starting to use a pendulum it can take a moment to respond. Once it begins to move you will have an answer for yes. Then ask the pendulum is my name (insert another name not yours) and the pendulum will again move this time in the opposite direction you will now have a no.<br />
Your pendulum is ready to use and you can ask it simple clear direct questions preferably with a yes or no answer. Such as ‘should I date this guy’, ‘is this food good for me’ is moving the right thing to do’. Will this be for my highest good?<br />
Choosing a pendulum to purchase is much like buying oracle cards it will jump out at you and you will feel a strong connection to that particular pendulum. The better ones have a little weight to them so make sure it also feels right. When you are in the shop you can ask the pendulum if it is the right one for you. First wake it up by checking the yes and now as above then ask it “ are you the right pendulum for me’ you’ll get your answer. Sometimes you may be drawn to a particular pendulum on a specific day but the next time its not right for you so asking it will give you your answer straight away.<br />
Please note that pendulums can be wrong at times as you may be connecting into someone else’s energy and all information given is not to be used to replace common sense and is always written with the intention of being for your highest good and is a guide only. The author takes no responsibility for the outcome.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>What’s the difference between a Psychic and a Medium?</h2>
<p>Many people ask what is the difference between a psychic and a medium.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
A psychic connects their energy to the person they are reading and gives information of what is going on for the person and the people around them.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
A medium connects to the spirit world (people who have passed) and brings in details of that person&#8217;s name, age, cause of passing, personality and often brings a message for the person the medium is sitting for.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
The energy of a psychic reading and a medium reading is also different. To connect with the spirit world the medium must raise their vibration to a higher level and the spirit must lower theirs to blend and make the connection. For the medium the feeling is much lighter than a psychic reading.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Did you know that all mediums are psychic but that not all psychics are mediums so it is useful to check what the person who will be doing your readings does, if you are looking for a specific type of reading.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
It is also useful to understand that the person you are wanting or expecting to come through may not be the one that makes the connection. So you need to be open to the messages you are being given. If you&#8217;re expecting your beloved aunt to appear and the medium is telling you they have a male energy and you&#8217;re not open, you may miss important clues and the message that was trying to be delivered..<br />
&nbsp;<br />
I am able to do both but currently I am mostly using psychic because I have chosen to work with an individual to help them with what is going on for them a this time. Connecting psychically cuts through the facade many of us surround ourselves with and helps to speed up the process of finding solutions.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Whilst I love the healing that often happens when a person receives a message from a loved one, I prefer to help people in this realm to figure out their lives. This doesn’t mean that whilst I am connected to someone that spirit doesn’t come through and kick you in the butt.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
So check with the person when you book your reading to ask what kind of readings they offer.</p>
