What does 'Psychic' mean to you?

 PSYCHIC- "relating to or denoting faculties or phenomena that are apparently inexplicable by natural laws, especially involving telepathy or clairvoyance."...that's the best definition, by far that I found online.

 PSYCHIC- "the ability to foretell the future with uncanny accuracy and inform people what lies ahead for finance, relationship and health and be 100% accurate with no mistakes whatsoever"...yep; I'm afraid that's the definition that some people have.

I have psychic abilities but I do not call myself a 'psychic' for a number of reasons.

Here's why...I don't focus just on giving a psychic reading...I give everything the Universe gives me and most importantly expectations of the second definition seems to come alive for some people.

What I tell everyone before I begin a reading is that for me...psychic abilities enable me to read the energy and vibrations on the path you're on.

It's also a reminder to us all that God gives us free will and that people, places and things on our path can change...it's the mystery of the Universe.

It is a gift from God; make no mistake about it. 

But some gifts are clothed in mystery and uncertainty; and that's the beauty of psychic abilities.

                                                                   

Is it OK to Talk to the Dead?

Whenever we lose a loved one, we mourn, grieve, cry; etc. We move on the best that we can, remembering those who have gone before us. As time passes, we talk to our loved ones, gesture towards the sky in remembrance, (as most football players do), ask them for advice when we feel stuck, tell them how much we miss them, etc.

However, when people see that I'm a medium, and that I talk to people who have passed, all of a sudden, I'm a disciple of the devil. I'm treading on dangerous ground; sacred ground that religion deems a sin.

Again, we don't spend time attempting to understand metaphysical gifts such as mediumship...we reach a conclusion based on fear. We separate ourselves from those things we fear, attach a label to the gift and the person that has that gift and immediately dismiss them as somebody or someone to be feared or worse; shunned; ignored, isolated.

This has happened in my own church which I attend.
 I sit at the back because I know there are people several rows ahead of me that have talked about me and my gifts in a negative way and choose to not engage me in conversation so I choose just to sit there and worship God; Jesus, Mary; etc.

Gifts are meant to be shared not put in a box so people can feel at ease. When used correctly in a spiritual way, mediumship is a gift from God. Period.
Peace.

The Sacred Storms of God

We all know the story of Noah and the ark and the flood but more importantly the promise from God that He would never do that again.
Bur God never promised that storms in our life would never come.
There are internal storms and external storms and they all come for specific reasons.

Take a thunderstorm for example...why is it, that we are so captivated by them?
Why is it that when there's rain or a storm, we instantly feel like taking a nap or going to sleep?
Could it be that God is telling us it's going to be ok, even in the darkest times?

Could it be that when we go to sleep during a storm, that the rain is actually the Universe's way of chanting? Chanting soothes the soul and puts us in another place.
The thunder reminds us of God's awesomeness (not to be feared but admired) and the lightning reminds us to seek shelter, just as when we go through bad times to seek the shelter in a safe place, even if it's in our heart and soul.

Next time a storm is approaching; ask the Universe...ok...what are you trying to teach me?
The answer just might surprise you.
