Voice of the Spirit

 Time tends to be the one thing that everyone wants in a reading:  “When is he going to call?”  “When am I getting married?”  “When will I have more money?”  When talking about “timing” in a session, there are many factors as to why some time-based predictions are spot on, while others are not accurate at all.  Yet, it is not as simple as to say that the gifts a reader possesses are strictly defined by how they can or can’t predict time.  As I will show below, time is not at all as clear-cut in a consultation as people would like to think.  In reality, it has a lot to do with the spiritual journey a client is on, their choices and what path they may decide to travel on.

In psychic readings, there are two types of timing for predictions:  1) – The first is “Lesson Driven.” This means that the karmic / dharmic spiritual lesson or lessons the client needs to learn must be completed for the prediction to happen (time-wise).  With lesson-based predictions, the time will not be able to be perceived in a rock solid “look at your watch” fashion.  Since the client may choose to either learn or not learn their lessons, it is not a just a simple “this week” or “it will happen next year” answer.  In addition, since these are karmic / dharmic lessons that tie into one’s overall soul growth, they are not easily or quickly learned.

Here I will illustrate the point:  I remember a female client who had stated the following to me in a reading:  “Jim, I’ve had at least 20 readings over the last few years, and everyone says I’m going to meet somebody new, but I never do.”   In this instance, I clairvoyantly knew that the client’s love life was not just a matter of a date when a certain person would be coming into her life (as it sometimes is), but that it is based on her spiritual growth (lessons).  Her situation needed to be looked at from a different point of view regarding time.  I picked up that she was closed to commitment, needed to open her heart to receive someone new, which entailed forgiving her ex husband.  These things needed to be done to bring someone new into her life.

Then I indicated that if she did these things, a new person would come enter the picture in about 2 years, however as I pointed out, the work would have to be done (the lessons learned) to open the door to receive this new blessing.  In this instance, the other readers weren’t wrong; they just may have not perceived the complexity of her situation and that it required more in depth insight that just a date of occurrence.

So always remember that if lessons, especially deep karmic ones are involved, “time” will always be based on what you learn and how you proceed with learning your lessons and not just “written in stone” dates.

2) – The second type of timing for predictions is “Event Driven.”  An event driven time and date prediction is based on the current path the client is on at the point when they receive a reading.  These event driven predictions are less difficult to do, as the pathway the client is traveling on is already a journey in progress.  It would be like looking at someone on a road trip and viewing where things are already heading.  These events are usually based upon choices the client has already made in the past, not on choices the person is making in the present.  As we look at the future, though, choices that will be made by the client can and will also affect the ultimate outcomes predicted.

However, even with “Event Driven” predictions, the client’s choice always comes into play.  It is never as if a psychic can make a prediction and that it would be unable to be changed by the client.  Any choice the client makes between the moment a reading was offered and the actual date of a prediction, alters the prediction and the outcome – often dramatically.  Especially if the time frame predicted is for the long term, let’s say, several months or years, there are more chances for a client to make various choices that could completely change the end prediction.

Here’s a for instance:  I remember telling a man that if he did not contact his ex, the ex would reach out to him in 6 months and be interested in reuniting with him.  That prediction, though, was based on him not doing anything but waiting it out for that 6 month time period:  No text messages, no emails, no phone calls or correspondence of any kind. 

This man refused to wait and began trying to have contact with his ex almost immediately after our reading, which his ex was not happy about as she was still in another relationship, although, one that was coming to an end.  Because of him refusing to leave well enough alone, his ex became frustrated with his pushiness and did not attempt to reunite with him 6 months later. 

The client then became angry and stated to me, “You said that she was going to try and reunite with me in 6 months, but your prediction never happened.”  As in many instances, the client forgets that the prediction, like a contract, has different clauses to it.  This prediction was not a simple one-line sentence, which said: She will contact you in 6 months – period.  There was also the factor of him absolutely having to refuse to try and connect with her during that 6-month period and needing to just wait it out.

Through his choices, the final prediction did not come true.  It is important to realize that since life is not “written in stone,” meaning that any of us could make any number of choices on any given day, that time based psychic predictions are also not a guaranteed fact.  Especially when the pathway the client is on has been altered by the client’s choices. 

Think of it this way:  God has given you a life with infinite plans and possibilities.  If you put a gun to your head and commit suicide, which is your choice, not God’s, you end the game entirely.  In less perceivably dramatic ways, we do the same thing everyday of our lives through our choices.

As we see, our choices affect the event driven predictions we receive in a reading, yet that may not stop clients from searching for ever more correct time based insights.  Some may think to look to the spirit word for even more clear-cut dates.  After all, our spirit guides are presumably more enlightened than we are, so shouldn’t they be able to predict time better than human psychics can?

In actuality, human psychics are usually better than spirits in this regard.  Why?  Because humans live within the illusion of time, therefore, are able to perceive it more clearly.  In spirit where there is no time as we know it, spirit entities are often out of touch with the clock human beings experience, as it is not the reality they live in.  However, some spirits are better than others, as they may still be able to retain a connection with the parameters of the physical plane’s illusion of time.

If we break down time into different aspects or styles of readers, we’ll see how various psychics deal with time in a consultation.

Certain psychics often pick up numbers regarding time.  A reader may say to a client, “I pick up that you will meet someone new in a “3.”  That “3″ could be 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, or perhaps even 3 years.  Often a reader can fine tune or narrow down the time frame that initially presented itself as a number, and sometimes they cannot, as all they may receive is the actual number.

Some readers predict time in literal dates.  This type of psychic would say, “Your ex lover will be calling you this Tuesday.”  Keep in mind though, that the further out the date is, say, weeks, months, even years from the point of the actual session, the literal aspect of the prediction may become somewhat less literal.  This style of reader might say, “I see you meeting someone new in about 9 months.

Literal time frames are often provided by readers, which are like bookends, which indicate the first possibility of an occurrence, concluding with the latest likelihood of something happening.   A reader might state, “I see you getting a new job offer between summer and late fall of this year.”  Usually, these predictions fall somewhere in-between the two “bookends” so to speak.

A psychic I know once told me the story of a prediction she once made.  She told a client that she would hear from her boyfriend by the end of October.  The client called her on October 26th expressing frustration and stated, “I haven’t heard from him yet!”  The psychic told her, “It’s not the end of October yet.  Give it till the end of the month.”  A few days later, her client called her on the October 30th and said, “I heard from him.”  So here, by the end of the month was a literal time frame prediction.

“Time” may present itself to a reader in ways that are only partially literal.  Sometimes a month may come through regarding a prediction, let’s say, February — but it wasn’t that February when the prediction actually came true, it turned out to be February a year later.  This can also happen with a day of the week.  A psychic may say, “I see you hearing about your new job offer by Friday.”  However, it wasn’t that Friday the client heard about their job offer, it was on Friday three weeks later.

A reader recently shared this story with me:  She told a client who desperately needed a job this exact prediction regarding her career: “The job will open up in November.”  The psychic then went on to describe specific details regarding this job.  The client ended up getting this job, as exactly described.  However, this job came to her the following March.  When she accepted the position, her employer told her that this job had been opened up in the prior November and that the company had been trying to fill the position for all of that time.  Here we see that literal time based predictions can be seen in many different ways.

Often, readers see time in ways that are metaphorical or allegorical.  A psychic may say, “I see you getting engaged when the leaves are falling (which would indicate the fall season).  Another advisor may see a vision of the snow when offering a reading, stating, “When the snow is falling, I see you moving to another location across the country.”

Some things in a consultation may not be able to be seen through the lens of time.  Why?  Because, from a spiritual perspective, certain things are simply not supposed to be revealed to us.  A perfect example of not being able to see the time and date is when a reader is trying to predict death.  Knowing when someone close to us will die, or even being clear on when we are going to leave this world could be disastrous for us to know.  How could we live in a normal day to day fashion if we knew the time and date of our own passing?  If we know when someone around was going to transition, it could upset the flow of how we interact with them and cause irreparable emotional damage to all concerned.  Therefore, infinite intelligence may not let readers see when people are going to pass.

However, in rare instances, it can be a positive thing to know the time when someone may exit this existence.  I remember a client of mine who had a relative who had been chronically ill in a nursing home for many years.  My client needed to know when this person would leave this world for two reasons:  They were worried that they wouldn’t have enough money to keep paying the nursing home bill as well as they wanted to know when this egregious suffering of their loved one would finally come to an end?  I remember predicting the point of transition correctly, and in that instance, it was a spiritual blessing to be able to see such a thing.

In this instance, it was beneficial to be able to see the above-mentioned person’s transition point.  However, it is generally not a good idea to try to predict death in a reading.

Some readers perceive that they are not able to predict time.  By believing that they can’t offer time-based predictions, they limit their ability to do so.  Someone I know who taught psychic development classes to many students, told me that she always instructed her students from the beginning that would be able to predict time.  She presented tuning into dates as a normal part of the psychic process and therefore, her students never had a problem predicting time at all. 

If a reader believes that they indeed can predict time, they should be able to do so.  It’s just the issue of not being intimidated by seeing a possible date, trusting in one’s inner ability to look at time in a session and flow with that process.  One of the great things about predicting the clock is that the more one does it, the easier and more fluid it becomes.

Regarding time, some clients are tremendously impatient regarding the points of when something predicted will happen.  “You mean I have to wait another year to meet someone?  No way.  It has to be sooner.  C’mon, tell me that it could happen sooner.  I can’t wait a whole year to meet someone,” a client exclaims!  This process of badgering the reader will never make things happen more quickly.  Remember the psychic is NOT in control over what happens in a client’s life; the reader is simply a conduit or vehicle and a messenger, that’s all.  So in this instance, don’t shoot the messenger.  Whatever time frame is offered in a reading, take note of it and see how things unfold, as that’s all that anyone can do.

A reading is supposed to provide guidance and insight to the journey an individual is on in this lifetime.  Consultations are there to offer insights, show possibilities, indicate where choice is involved and provide higher guidance to the deep complexities any of us can face.

A session is never simply designed to fill in the calendar, in the same way you list dinner dates, birthdays and doctors appointments.  That would be as ridiculous as saying to a reader, “If you were really psychic, you would know what I ate for breakfast yesterday!”

“Time” can provide an overview of the journey.  Often time frames are revealed through a reading in the following way:  An issue starts with a question, which progresses to a murky, non-conclusive and sometimes rocky period, and ultimately leads to a conclusion.  Never forget though, that many factors affect the conclusion in time based ways:  The karmic / spiritual lessons the client must learn to see the ultimate predictions manifest, and the choices that the client makes along the way which can alter and / or nullify the dates originally offered in a reading.

With knowing that time is not a permanent fixture in the heavens or in our lives, we look at time as it should be perceived — as a guiding light, which is merely an overview in the journey — but one that can shine brighter, dim darker or simply be turned off, leaving us in darkness; by us – as we are the ones who truly have our finger on the light and the dimmer switch.  Here we see that we have always been and will always be far more in control of the proverbial  “when” we all wish to know – that “when” which has much more to do with “what” — as in what we think, choose, say, do, and ultimately, learn.
