well , sure . she understood just how to tell you . in reading your posts , zengizmo , i might see how the psych-community has touched your language . this would relate to the psych-speak of doctors , councilors , hippie healers , religious traditions .... the phrase '' holding on to wounds " would be made of that , and is of a sub-culture . i'd wonder down there in the sub-mind that we think in a much more common way ? a translation of this mind for anyone of any culture is possible ?
I had a feeling you'd be telling me that. LOL I thought about telling you my interpretation, but I wanted to see if you would beg. LOL Actually in the sub-mind I think there maybe is no language at all. Also frequently the psychic airwaves shoot me some comments that are just as metaphorical as this one. But you're right about me coming from a longstanding immersion in a psych-speak subculture, and even before I read your note, I realized that it was unfair of me to expect everyone to see Sonia's meaning. Maybe I was picking up your thoughts...or maybe not. In discursive English, this is what she meant: If you accidentally touch a hot stove and burn your hand, a healthy response is to be careful not to touch hot stoves in the future. An unhealthy response is to refuse ever to go near a stove again, and to spend the rest of your life eating raw food. The second response is an example of "holding onto your wounds." You have kept the painful experience "near at hand" in your conscious mind, always reminding yourself to never, never let that happen again. It has become a burden that has crippled your ability to take reasonable risks and live a fulfilled life. Sonia was telling me I needed to let go of my fear of pain and loss, so I could be free to follow my inner desires. Of course, as soon as I started to let go of my fears and follow my inner desires, all hell broke loose. LOL So I guess I was right to be afraid. And I did end up losing almost everything. Maybe part of me knew that was going to happen. And maybe it HAD to happen, for whatever reason. I'm still holding onto my wounds, and I have a lot more to hold onto than I did when Sonia spoke to me that time. Tikoo, I appreciate your comments about my subculture--when I'm writing my book, I need to remember this blind spot of mine, and make sure to bring my readers along with me.
Huh...yeah, Tikoo. (Big grin) You're paying close attention, all right. LOL That's the balance, exactly...make some art of it, yet keep it understandable...though there are some things that some people just won't get no matter what.
I have had readings with about 12 psychic's, in the same year. I asked the same questions each time. They all gave me different answers. I did get a 1 question reading with Sylvia Browne. I asked her what my spirit Guides name was and what are my 2 life themes. She told me. I then had a chance to ask her a question on a website. I decided to ask her the same question. I did this because I wanted to prove to myself, if she was real or not, becaue I was going to buy a reading from her. She answered my question, with the exact answer she told me a year earlier. I was convinced,that she has some type of ability.
