Psychic Readings by Rev. Jeff
Spirit is constantly offering us signs and
omens in our lives. But, we are often so blind to them. It is not
necessary to be a professional "psychic" in order to receive
information from Spirit. All of us, all the time are given signs from
God, from the world of Spirit. These signs are usually ignored, or
thought of as "just a coincidence."
When you ask your Spirit Guides or Angels or
God a question or for guidance, you WILL receive an answer. Do not feel
that unless you have fantastic visions or hear a booming voice in your
head that you plea has not been heard. All questions are heard and all
questions are answered. It may not happen immediately, but it will
happen. When you ask a question of the Higher Powers, expect that you
will receive an answer. But don't sit around waiting for it. Go about
your life, and be open to receiving your answer.
Spirit works in many different ways to reach
us. If Spirit knows that we are not ready to receive answers in a
telepathic or clairvoyant way, they will find other means to reach us.
The signs, the omens, the guidance is all
around us, all the time. All we need do is open ourselves to receiving
it. Look around your world, really look at it, pay attention. Do not go
about your life blindly.
Some examples of the many different ways that Spirit gives us an answer or sign may be:
The first song
you hear when you turn on the radio. Or a song that keeps repeating in
your head over and over. You know that song that you "can't get out of
your head."
You turn on the television and someone is speaking about the same concern that you are having.
You overhear a conversation between other people that has meaning to your condition.
You may see or hear something repeatedly. An
example is constantly seeing the number "11". You may see "11" on a
clock, a label, a license plate. Seeing "11" many times means that
something spiritual is happening or about to happen in your life.
You open to a page in a book and your eyes fall upon a paragraph that has meaning to your current situation.
Maybe you are fretting about a situation with
another person, and you decide you are going to call them and "have it
out". But, every time you dial their number they are not home or the
line is busy. This could be Spirit telling you that now is not the
right time to talk about the situation. Or, perhaps you are not in the
right frame of mind to talk to that person. Possibly you don't know
whether or not to talk to someone about an issue and the phone rings
and it's the person you were thinking about.
Signs often come from the animal world. Maybe
every time you leave the house, a crow flies by and caws, or you
constantly see two squirrels chasing each other.
You are about to buy something that you really
desire, but don't necessarily need. When you go to pay, your credit
card mysteriously won't work or you will have forgotten your checkbook.
Spirit could be telling you that the item is not beneficial for you, or
it could be that the purchase could put a stress on your finances.
You're in a hurry to get somewhere, you're
racing along in your car, and every light you come to is red. You would
probably start cursing and driving even faster. But, perhaps Spirit is
telling you to slow down. Maybe you are being told to stop and think
about your actions. Maybe Spirit is trying to prevent you from having
an accident.
Once I was hiking in the woods and got very
lost. I could not find a path back to the road. So, I asked Spirit to
please guide me out. Moments later, a crow appeared in the sky above me
and circled a few times. Then the crow flew in a certain direction. I
knew this was a sign, I followed the crow and made it out of the woods
quickly and with no problems.
Don't have expectations and don't read into
things. Just ask for guidance and allow it to happen. Not everything
you see or hear is a sign. But, if you are open and receptive, the
signs will be clear. Through practicing the act of asking for guidance
and following it, you will soon understand when you are receiving an
answer from Spirit and when you are not. The more often you ask for
guidance and follow the guidance given, the stronger the connection
will be, and the guidance and symbols will become much clearer.
When I go to a bookstore, I ask my Angels and
Spirit Guides to show me exactly what book would be best for me at the
time. I have always received an answer. You'd be surprised how many
times a book will literally fall of the shelf, or someone I don't know
recommends a book, or I just feel that I should pick up a certain book
and flipping through it I see it contains exactly the knowledge I was
seeking.
Many signs from Spirit will come in a way that
you will easily relate to and understand. If you receive symbols that
don't instantly "click" with you or you are unfamiliar with, then get a
good book on symbolism. For example, we often receive signs from the
animal world, but if you are not familiar with the character of each
animal you may miss the sign or misunderstand it. In this case, you
could find a book on animal symbolism and look up the animal that is
showing itself to you. After a while, you will develop your own
personal symbolism. For example, if you constantly see a squirrel
burying food in your yard and soon after you receive a little money, it
could be your sign that when you receive extra money you should store
it away for the future. Don't always rely on a book to interpret a sign
for you. Books on symbolism are good resources, but ultimately it is
what the symbol means to you that is most important.
One of the oldest forms of divination or
seeking guidance is "bibliomancy." Originally, one would hold the Bible
and ask for guidance on a personal issue. Then you would open the Bible
at random, and without looking, place your finger on the page. Reading
whatever passage you pointed to would provide the guidance you were
seeking. You can try this any time and you don't have to use the Bible.
Pick any book that is inspirational to you. Hold the book in your
hands, ask God, your Spirit Guides, your Angels to guide your hand to
the right page and passage to answer your question. When you feel
ready, pick a page, point to a passage and read it. See how it relates
to your issue. You'll be surprised how often the answer is right there,
"at your fingertips."
If you ask for guidance, if you ask for a sign,
it will be given. Be patient and be open to receiving the guidance. So
often, we ask for a message from Spirit and then are disappointed that
we didn't receive guidance in some "fantastic" way like flashing lights
or neon signs. Be secure in knowing that if you ask for guidance, it
will be given, always. But, you must be open to receiving the message
in any form.
Remember that your guides and angels are always
around you, ready to assist you. But, they can not and will not
interfere with your life. That is not their role. You must invite them
in, you must ask for their guidance, then they are more than happy to
help you in any way they can.
Start today. Communicate with your Spirit
Guides and Angels, even if you cannot see or hear them. Ask them for
guidance on an issue that concerns you. Ask them to show you a sign to
guide your way, and then be open to receive their guidance.
Blessings and love,
