Your Question

I have been reading about past lives lately (one book was by Dr. Brian Weiss I believe), and I have slowly become convinced that I believe in them.  Let’s say that I’m surprised having grown up without such a notion in my mind.  My family will think I’m losing my mind if I share my newfound belief with them so I have no one to talk with about it.  I see from your website that you are a Certified Hypnotherapist who does past-life regressions.  Would a regression be a good idea for me?  How do you know when the time is right for such a session?  I’m a bit nervous about it all.

My Intuitive Answer

I have been sharing past-life regressions with others for more than 30 years, and I can assure you there’s nothing to be nervous about IF you have your regression done by a professional with experience in the field.  I have heard of some uncomfortable (not dangerous) experiences when people without experience or knowledge of the field have performed regressions.  Regressions should be both relaxing and exciting.  They do vary quite a bit – some people receive very clear pictures/emotions/information – some people find the experience much more vague/foggy.  It’s quite individual, but everyone benefits.  And, it doesn’t matter your belief system – some people believe it is a true past life of your spirit (as I do), some people believe you’re experiencing genetic memory (events that happened to your ancestors), and some people believe it’s just your imagination – it truly doesn’t matter, you can still learn and grow from the experience.  So, my suggestion is that now is a good time – when your interest is heightened.  Find (word of mouth usually works or interview local therapists) a trusted professional in your area and enjoy.

Your Question

[This question came from India – people all over the world are asking the same things (as always)]:  Just I am searching for my new job at — but due to condition of business I am not getting the job with my satisfaction.  Could you advise me?

My Intuitive Answer

A better job is in the future I’m certain, but you can’t rush it.  You are very capable and willing to work.  Try to accept your current position and enjoy each day before a new job presents itself. 

(Everyone is concerned with the economy.  My feeling is that it need not get any worse – it feels stronger and “should” be getting better.  Please don’t live in fear – move into trust and cooperation.)

Your Question

I had been depressed for a while.  I just felt like I was grieving.  I actually was.  My little dog and I fell asleep on the sofa.  I awoke in the middle of the night feeling very expanded, at first I thought what is this?  I thought maybe I was having an anxiety attack, but I thought, no, because this feels too good.  It felt like a real warm loving feeling in my chakra for the heart.  I had been feeling so heavy and depressed for days.  Then a woman’s voice spoke.  It is the first time I have ever had this.  I have had other things, but never a voice in my head.  It made me feel so special.  I am alone so much, and my family is not close to me.  To think that little me could receive this… I wanted to know what you feel it was.

My Intuitive Answer

You received a very special message/voice.  Yes, it’s true and nothing to worry about – just enjoy it (as you did).  Let it be what it was… don’t dwell on it, but enjoy the memory.  It may or may not ever happen again – you cannot control this type of energy flow.  You are much better to learn from it and simply move forward in your growth.  Just accept it for the loving experience it was.

Being alone too much doesn’t invite these experiences, in fact, sometimes it can slow them down.  Is there something you can do to have more contact with others?  That may be good for you at this time.

Your Question

I am tired, stressed, and never feel well – never quite myself anymore.  What can I do to get my energy back?  It seems like everyday there is always something or someone to pull me down, and I don’t feel like I should be living in such a state.

My Intuitive Answer

Yes, So many of us are feeling stressed these days.  If not because of our own career/finance/health reasons, we’re absorbing the energy surrounding us – picking up stress from others who are in serious trouble in some way.  Energetically, this is a difficult time and this is a difficult situation.  My suggestion is that you find more quiet time each day – I don’t mean alone time, but quiet time doing something you enjoy (gardening, painting, hiking, etc.).  An increased focus on positive things can help you create a more positive (therefore healthy) attitude.  Your physical body feels very stress – on the brink of having even more major health issues – please stop before that happens.  Don’t worry about it, face it and work toward more balance and peace of mind (which will create more peace of body which you need to regain your vitality).

Your Question

I hope that you are well, and enjoying Spring.  This time of year is so lovely.  I have written to you over the years and my question is:  Why is it that Spirits come to me, and I don’t know what it is they want from me or what they wish for me to know?  I have picked up energies around me from a young age – I feel someone with me and I ask what they want, etc., but I can’t understand.

These spirits must come to me for a reason.  I have been on my spiritual path for many years.  Sometime I get signs like a dark shadow at the foot of my bed – male, about six feet tall.  When I see this, I’m not afraid, but I know someone will pass.  I don’t know who until after it happens.  What am I supposed to do with these messages?  I love my gift.  Someone asked me if I was a psychic or medium and I had to say I don’t know.  I don’t see myself as a psychic.  I just read energies and pick up energy from spirits.  I feel I am growing to a higher level.  Thank you for taking the time to read this.

My Intuitive Answer

Yes, spring is beautiful.  Here in Central Virginia it’s especially gorgeous with the flowers and trees blooming.

I know we’ve discussed this issue before – sometimes you have to realize that spirits may visit without a specific message.  Frustrating, I know.  Even when you sense a spirit around you, don’t try too hard to understand the message, if you’re meant to know, it will become very clear.

I have always seen the “dark man” – usually when I’m awake, driving sometimes, and I know that someone will be ill or die.  Rarely do I know who it is either.  All I do is try to relax, release the heavy energy and send love and light out from my own energy to everyone in need.  Make it a positive experience when you can. 

You are called psychic in this world when you read energies and have contact with spirits – no need to question that.  Because you have this ability, doesn’t mean you need to read others though – you must first always remember to take care of yourself and your own growth needs.

Followup Comment

Question:   Thank you so much.  I guess I am over thinking it all.  I will do what you said, and I will take care of myself.  I do know I feel down at times.  I know it’s from others’ energies that I pick up.  I say that if feelings aren’t mine, please send them back to the person.    Answer:  Since I work as an empath, I pick up emotions from others (which I don’t absorb).  However, I don’t send them back to the person, I try to clear the person’s energy if possible and send the energies out into the Universe to do no harm.  As long as you’re sending loving energy all around, you’re doing fine.

Your Question

The question is a little touchy feely and I sure hope you can help.  I have a great relationship with my parents, but here lately they seem obsessed with Revelations from the King James Bible (Southern Baptists).  When I use the term obsessed, that is not an exaggeration by any means.  They’ve been meeting with a group which includes their preacher to discuss Revelations.  Of course, since they raised me, I was raised Southern Baptist.  Well, now that I’m an adult, I don’t share their beliefs any longer.  I have my own beliefs which include reincarnation, belief in Buddhism practices, etc.   I’ve tried to talk to them in the past about my views but even for me to begin speaking of these things creates a scene straight out of a nightmare.  My father is a wonderful man but also one of the most narrow minded I’ve ever known.  To him, everyone’s belief in something other than his own is wrong and they will burn in Hell.  Back to the point, I love my parents dearly and have a great relationship with them, but it’s gotten to the point that whenever we have a conversation, it always, and I mean every single time, turns into a religious discussion.  It seems as though it’s ALL they can talk about.  I don’t mind having discussions with them on any subject, especially one that is so important to them, but to only talk about one topic and try so hard to shove it down another’s throat, is very disturbing to me.  How do I get them to stop or at least take a breather?  Your input would be so valuable to me.

My Intuitive Answer

This is a difficult situation and one I understand completely.  I can sense your love for your parents, and I know you wish there was more you could do to have a conversation with them without having it return to religion (their beliefs vs. your beliefs).  I can assure you that they aren’t going to change in the near future (maybe not at all), and all you can do is accept that.  They love you and need to learn to respect you more as the loving individual that you are.  All I feel you can do is refuse to discuss religious issues with them – any issues, anytime, your views or theirs.  You have to be honest (maybe blunt) with them and tell them you will not discuss any religious topics with them.  You have to show them you mean it by changing the subject or simply ending any conversation that moves into that realm.  It won’t be easy, but it’s the only way to keep the relationship from deteriorating.  You’re a very compassionate person – continue to try to find a stable place for your relationship.

Your Question

You have worked with me and my cat for years.  She has had many health issues, but this week instead of being ill, she got sprayed by a skunk.  The University here in Missouri gave me a recipe that got rid of most of the stench (hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and a little gentle shampoo).  She’s been walking around yelling now and I’m concerned.  What is she trying to tell me?  Am I missing something?

My Intuitive Answer

This dear cat is getting old and has certainly had more than her share of physical issues (and a few emotional ones).  I’m so sorry about the skunk encounter.  I’ve been fortunate over the years that my cats have managed to avoid skunks even though we see them in our yard on occasion.  My four older cats (girls) are all indoor cats now (one blind at age 19 who is doing well), but my two boys (Patch with only one eye and Hardy who has serious thyroid disease) still go out on occasion.  Even the boys seem to stay away from the skunks.  Patch seems to hang around with the deer and even the opossums – he’s quite curious.

Back to your cat:  She’s an old girl, and she’s getting more senile now.  I don’t believe that she’s in pain, but she does get confused and feel quite out of touch with her physical body sometimes.  Try rubbing her back and down her legs to help ground her.  When she yells, just go to her when you can, and tell her you understand that she’s confused.  You’ve always given her extra attention and that may be all you can do at this time.

Your Question

For too long now I have turned to gambling as a way to get on my feet financially.  It comes in sweeps, where I can go a long time without gambling, but when I do, I am needy and desperately over doing it.  I have a gambling addiction and I really need help!  I am such an active community person that I feel too uncomfortable approaching the support offered here in this small town where I live.  Energetically, I am feeling extremely heavy when I think about the things I have done to try to get ahead financially.  In truth, I know that my ideas and goals have such incredible potential for the abundance that I seek.  But why can’t I stop turning to the gambling when times get tough?  What do I need to know in order to release this addiction?  Better yet, how can I help to heal those that I have hurt?  I have quite a bit of things to “fix.”

My Intuitive Answer

As you know, with your energy, gambling will never help you get ahead in the long run.  It just can’t – it’s too powerful for you.  If you can’t ask for help locally, drive to another city or try on-line support such as Gamblers’ Anonymous.  I don’t know what’s available in Canada, but I’m sure there’s something.  You could also see a confidential counselor for personal help.  Gambling will never be the answer.

When dealing with such an addiction, you can’t go back and repair relationships. You can’t “fix” the past.  You must, however, try to live each day in a healthier space and share that with those you love, make no promises you know you can’t keep, etc.  I believe that you can stop gambling if you find the right support system.  Please don’t give up.

Energetically, you feel heavy because most addictions come in through the second (orange) energy center which is very heavy energy.  Focus on bringing calming shades of blue into your environment – simple, but it can only help this heavy energy flow in which you find yourself.

Your Question

I had a few dreams about a rat, his back is towards me.  The feeling I got when I woke up from the dream was, don’t trust.  I have no idea who I shouldn’t trust.  Is this person in my life now?  Is this only a silly dream or does it mean something?  I do daily meditation and in my vision again this same rat, again his back toward me, and then I see faces of other people that I don’t know.  For a few months I’ve been working on myself, changing the way I think about my life and myself.  It’s positive thinking.  I was wondering if the work I am doing is bringing up stuff that I don’t know about or things that will happen?

My Intuitive Answer

Anytime an animal appears in dreams or visions, it’s very important to explore that animal.  What does a black rat mean to you?  Some people hate rats, some love them.  It might help to really sit down and write what good and bad things rats represent in your life.  It doesn’t have to mean a specific person (trust) by the way, just a lesson to learn.

It may help to know that in Native American lore, the rat/mouse stands for scrutiny – the need to examine everything – to see things up close.  It’s good for attention to detail if you tend to be scattered, but it can mean that you’ll pick little things to pieces without seeing the big picture of your life.  The mouse tells you to look at yourself and others in your life carefully.  After doing that, back up and see the big picture and decide what else needs to be changed.  Also, keep up the positive thinking.  It doesn’t matter whether it brings “stuff” up or indicates change in the future.  Just remain positive and life will be better.

Question:  I plan on purchasing a house in the next year.  With all the foreclosures on the market and with so many houses up for auction, it’s difficult not to heed the advice of those encouraging me to purchase this way.  It feels like bad karma to me.  Sure I can save some money on my next home, but at what price to the previous owner’s misfortune?  And, wouldn’t there be negative energy left behind?

Answer:  What a wonderful question.  Many people have asked me something similar lately.  There was a story in the newspaper recently about a couple who bought a home through foreclosure and the former owner harassed them for years afterwards.  He felt the home should still be his and that it was taken unfairly.  They finally sold the house to get away from him – pretty bad karma there.

My intuitive read is similar.  I do feel that when people are forced to leave their forever homes, they leave behind much energy – much pain.  The “good” part is that most people, even those who say they are not intuitive, can feel that energy in the home.  So, my advice is to check out any and every home you feel may work and feel the energy inside (outside too, but mainly inside).  Trust yourself and don’t let price be the deciding factor – only the way the house feels to you.  And, don’t think you can change painful, negative energy – it may not be possible.  Have fun house hunting and read the energy of each house – you can do it.
