Voice of the Spirit

Many clients go into a reading thinking of their lives as being a certain way – the way it has been in the past, and how it is now. They perceive that they understand their situation, who they are, and feel confident that they know those quite well who are in their lives. They assume that their future will be the same, or at least quite similar to their already existing circumstances and the path that they’re on. Therefore, the reading must make sense in reference to all that has been experienced, and what is believed to be true.

These are logical assumptions, which should make sense, right? If you’ve lived at 543 Elm Street for twenty years and have no plans to move, then you won’t be moving within the next few months. A woman assumes that being married to the same man for forty years who seems to love her means that he won’t leave her in 6 weeks for another woman. So clients think that they have a pretty clear idea of the parameters that would be accurate within a reading, and only accept information that falls within those guidelines and limits

But what if the reading contradicts those pre-existing assumptions and seems illogical? What if the session offers completely different insights and predictions that what the client would have ever thought could be true? If the consultation differs from what a client believes, what does that mean? Is the reading off base, inaccurate, and downright wrong?

The question could be posed: “How many people thought that 9/11could have ever happened?” The unlikelihood of such an occurrence, even though it is quite extreme, could be compared in principle to our own circumstances. Each of our lives are filled with unexpected twists and turns, and surprises – some happy, while others that are tragic.

However, psychic ability is the exact opposite of logic, and in fact, has nothing to do with logic at all.

We use logic all the time, which ties into linear thought and process: one thing happens, which infers or suggests that something else will happen based on what happened before, and so on. This mental process only deals with our five senses – but does not incorporate our sixth sense, which is our psychic, intuitive and transcendent mind, the mind that is far beyond logic.

Logic can be used when you’re getting ready to drive your car: I need my keys, because the keys will open the door, and then, start the ignition. Gas needs to be in the car, so it makes sense to check if the tank has enough gas to get me from home to point A and then back home. If there isn’t enough gas, I need to go to the gas station and fill the tank up. All of these thoughts are logical and based on deductive reasoning.

However, psychic ability is as opposite of logic as oil is to water. They have nothing to do with each other. Psychic ability has to do with receiving information from the spiritual realms, and does not explain itself, as it just is what it is. Information flows through the reader and the reading, and is offered. It is not presented in a sequential, logical fashion, as it can’t be. It has nothing to do with what makes sense to our five senses. It is beyond such a mind set. Spirit and the divine universe speak to and through a psychic, and the client gets much more value out of the reading in the long run if they try to listen – not to argue, or to deny any possibility.

Remember, anything can happen. It should be assumed that spirit knows more than us, and will choose what to say and how to say it, in a way that is for the highest good of the client. Often, one demands to know every little detail to their question, but certain questions cannot and should not be answered.

A perfect example of this would be regarding death. Hypothetically, if the client was going to die on July 1, 2020, what possible good would come from knowing that information now? Simply stated, there are certain things none of us are supposed to know, or to only see in part.

A reader may say to someone in late 2007, that they will get an answer to their relationship question in early September of 2008. But the answer is not supposed to be clear at the time of the reading. What isn’t known to the reader and client, is that in early September 2008, they are going to run into someone they knew from before as a friend. This friend was married, but will be divorced by September 2008, and at that time will be interested in a relationship with the client. It is imperative for the client to not know this, as they would impulsively contact this person early, before their divorce is final, which would ruin the outcome of a potentially great relationship – permanently. Therefore, spirit will only provide part of the details, as to not allow the divine plan to be ruined.

If this client was thinking logically, he or she would press the reader: “Why can’t you tell me what is going to happen? This reading isn’t clear.” The client could even dismiss the validity of the reading, because the question was only partially answered, as it doesn’t make sense logically.

Clients often use logic as a form of skepticism. Being skeptical means that the session better make sense – right off the bat. If it doesn’t, then the reader and reading is dismissed as hogwash. This is a way of the client saying that they already know, or that what comes through must conform to their logical pre-existing view. What a huge mistake one makes with that mindset, as life altering information could be denied in a reading. One could miss all of the guidance that could help them to literally heal their lives.

I remember a great reader once said to me years ago that the strangest, most off the wall and crazy predictions were always the most accurate. Why? Because they were purely psychic, as they had nothing to do with logic at all.

I recall reading for a woman just two times. The first time, she wanted to know how her wedding was going to go, which was to take place in just a few days. I immediately felt that there wasn’t going to be any wedding at all. It was quite a clear psychic message: no wedding in a few days. She argued, and slammed the phone down, as if I were a lunatic, who didn’t know what he was talking about. A week later she called to tell me that her fiance backed out of the wedding, at the very last minute. There ended up being no wedding.

Here, this prediction seemed utterly illogical, even nonsensical. There was a planned wedding; it was to occur in just a few days, so one would think that it had to happen, barring a tragedy. But it didn’t. This is the real value of psychic ability – to see the things that cannot be seen or perceived with our mundane five senses.

Her problem with what I was saying is that it didn’t make sense to her – logically. This is where having a completely open mind when receiving a reading is crucial. Do we really ever know what’s in store for us based on logic? Of course not. So when we ask for a reading, be prepared for anything to come through, beyond what we believe is plausible to us.

Often, a client tries to make the reader look like an out of touch with reality nut case. I’ve had this happen to me.

I read for a woman who had been married for thirty years. He husband came home faithfully every night from work, and didn’t go out on the town, or frequent bars. So it blew her right out of the water when I felt that he had been cheating on her – but on top of that, not with a female, but rather, with a man. Of course, what I said to her was beyond preposterous, if one was thinking logically. He came home every night, didn’t go out, and showed no overt gay tendencies, etc. But it kept coming to me.

At first, she perceived me as a joke, as if I was mentally ill — until she found out that I was indeed right. He had been cheating with a man for many years. “Where,” you might wonder? When he was traveling overseas on business trips, he was having sex with a male colleague there. Both men were married and appeared heterosexual, so no one suspected anything. Yet this affair was as clear to me psychically, as my own name.

Here, we see a problem that is quite common when logic interferes with a consultation. Clients want to believe that they know the character of those who are in their life – especially someone who is their lover, or spouse. And who am I, or any reader for that matter to tell them different — someone has never spent one single minute with the person in question?

But how much do any of us really know anybody? Unless we spent every minute of every day with them, we can’t say with 100% certainty who they are, what they are and all they do. We can look at an extreme example of someone like the BTK serial killer. His wife was married to him for years, and had absolutely no idea whatsoever that the man she had been married to and had children with for so long was a notorious serial killer. Obviously this is a very rare example, but I use it to illustrate a point.

Apply the same principle in more common terms. A man’s wife claims she’s going to see a female friend, but what if she was really meeting a secret boyfriend? Just because this man didn’t know or suspect anything wrong, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening? That’s where a reading can be of service, to unveil the hidden and what appears illogical.

The solution is not to become suspicious or mistrustful of the people in our lives. The key is to having and maintaining an open mind – plain and simple.

A client must not let their ego get in the way. Everyone should go into a reading by clearing their mind of preconceptions, and rigid perceptions. When a client thinks they know, right then and there, the reading is compromised. Again, logic should not be a part of a client’s mindset!

Let me take it a step further. A reader is not doing their job if they incorporate logic into a session. Sure, it will sound convincing and real to the client, but logic is not a valid part of the psychic process, and will sell the client short with mediocre and potentially inaccurate information.

One of my regular clients kept worrying about not having enough money to keep her home. She wasn’t making enough money at her job to pay her bills, and was behind in payments. She wasn’t able to find another job, and no one she knew had money to loan her. Now what would logic say? It would say that she was going to lose her house. However, one of her passed on relatives kept coming through with the adamant message that there was going to be a financial miracle – over and over again. And that miracle happened, and she didn’t lose her home, thankfully.

Perception is reality. We base our reality on our perception of things, whether our viewpoints are accurate or not. We must let go of logical preconceptions when having a reading, or we limit and hinder ourselves, and all that spirit has to offer to us!

Of course, every client will claim to have an open mind, as who would admit that they’re close minded when having a reading? Clients must not just talk the talk, but walk the walk. An open mind is essential for every reading to work, which means that logic must be left at the door!

After all, we should utilize a reading when logic has fallen short – when it hasn’t provided us with the answers we need and yearn for. As we reach out though, it cannot be a case of having it both ways. Just like we can’t serve two masters, we can’t blend logic and psychic ability in a reading, and expect it to work.

Remember, a reading can help us more than logic ever could, especially with issues that are complex, troubling, confusing and illogical. Never forget, life is often quite illogical – people frequently don’t behave logically. If everyone and everything was logical, would anything really be puzzling at all?

Yet on the other hand, a reading, its insight and predictions do not necessarily have to be the opposite of logic. Sometimes, a legitimate psychic insight will end up reaching the same exact conclusion that would be arrived at logically. But a reader still must come to these conclusions using their psychic ability, and not common sense.

I once had a female client who had wanted a certain movie star to become her lover. She crossed paths with two “psychics,” who told her they could make this happen, but they would have to purchase a special metaphysical machine that cost 500 thousand dollars to bring this movie star (someone she never even met) to her. She was an average income working person, but gave them the total amount by cashing in life insurance policies. So by the time she called me, she wanted to know if this movie star would ever be hers, or if not, had she been ripped off?

Now, I know what most of you are thinking. These “psychics” were complete rip off scam artists, the glamorous leading man movie star was never going to be hers, and of course, she was taken for a ride — big time. And yes, you’re right on all accounts, and you probably deduced that through logic and common sense. She never met the actor, lost 500 thousand dollars, and was scammed beyond belief.

I came to the same conclusion and told this client so – except I arrived at it solely from what I felt psychically. Here, we see that a logical conclusion and a psychic insight were indeed one and the same – but in a reading, these conclusions should be reached with psychic ability alone.

Often, clients use psychics to tell them that the seemingly impossible will indeed happen, and want the reader to make it all appear logical. This is the exact opposite of the client who only believes that what appears logical at the time is all that could ever happen. Here, the most out of reach possibility is supposed to presented as factual by the reader who serves the erroneous purpose of appearing to channel higher information that could never be perceived logically. Why? Because it is supposedly channeled directly from God!

A perfect example of this is when clients solicit readers who will tell them that relationships that will never work out are instead meant to be, destined, christened and sanctioned by God, and ABSOLUTELTY will happen.

I cannot tell you the countless number of clients who have fallen into psychic addiction based on this premise – that the reader is the mouthpiece of God almighty! When clients reach the point of only being willing to accept that the situation they’re addicted to (usually a futile romantic relationship) must work out, psychic addiction soon follows. Here delusional fantasy not only replaces logic, it also prevents the reading from being helpful. “Yes, they really do love you and will commit to you soon” is all that the client is willing to hear.

Whether the client’s sense of logical assumption and ego are in the way, or false fantasy that the client demands to hear, logic, or rebelling against logic should not be a part of a reading. Logic has a purpose separate from psychic ability, such as in balancing your checkbook, but logic should not be involved either way in a consultation.

Spirit wishes to help us, as the real purpose of a reading is to offer insights to help us grow. When having a reading, we step out of our mundane and predictable five senses as well as erroneous fantasy – and step into the realm where all truthful and helpful information is available to us – through transcendent mind, the divine universe, and the universal guidance of higher spirit!

So what do we do when a reading doesn’t make sense to us logically? First, we need to write down clearly what was stated in the reading. The reason I mention “clearly” is because many clients interpret what is being given to them in a reading, and make note of their edited version, as opposed to writing verbatim what the reader offered to them.

Secondly, don’t react. Take a wait and see attitude. In time, things will most certainly become clear. The feel good reading is not always a truthful one, even though it seems so uplifting at the time. On the other hand, a reading that indicates problems and things not necessarily working out in the way the client wants is not guaranteed to be accurate either.

Third, keep in mind that your choices as a client after the reading will often affect the outcome of predictions, as a reading is only a snapshot of your journey at the time of the session. Your choices can and will change everything.

Fourth, do your best to have an open mind, as that is perhaps the strongest key to being able to utilize all that comes through for you from spirit.
