Thanks Spectacles, and Windy if it does not make sense. It could have been a rebound from what I was doing.
Sorry Rick, but your reading didn't resonate at all. Glad I don't have mental health/depression issues. Could have been incredibly disturbing. Thanks for your time.
I had a feeling. When a person gets into the mind set I got when I was working on murder victims cases and serial killers. I wonder if my mind is not burned out. I went thru so much gore and pain and terrible visions. I could hardly watch any show with my family with out crying my eyes out. So what I saw was very bad and I hope I will be able to bounce back from my experiences on the other site. But I might be afraid I will never come back. I felt I was leaning that way when I was doing reads on here. The gore the pain and many people I saw in pieces makes me wonder why I went that way. So my time as a reader might be out of touch because I put myself in a place that many would not like to even go there. I can feel it was a bad read because my inners were telling me that. Sorry Windy, I will try another soon and see if all that comes thru are bad then I will know I went where I should not have. Thanks Rick
Rick , The same thing kinda happens to me , but its usually when I am WAY over tired , or tryting to come down sick with something....look after yourself.
this is an example of what happens when the emotions become an emotional addiction and a weapon... not a tool for understanding. A reader always has a choice to back away and Not do the reading. As does the one being read. Responsibility and Accountability go hand in hand as does Respect and Discernment.
The thing is when I read past lives there is always bad that comes thru. Maybe I need to get educated in what I am doing to me and others. It should be a better experience.
On the other site I did not give details, just what might help only. Posts would be removed if they were accusing or out of line. Location was the key. Is their a class on here I can take?
Ive never heard of classes before , but , you can do little things to train yourself using what you already have , I bet Old crone has lots of good tips she could share with you , Im not very good with words...so its hard for me to explain
really hope that you wont mind me being honest here rick and speaking my mind but when you read me a long time ago towards the beginning of this thread it seemed to be mainly from the present and nothing much seemed to be from the past which to be honest i was grateful for as most of the readings that have been for others have been about the negative aspect and their deaths. please forgive me if i have understood wrongly. there surely has to be more to be seen from a persons previous life than the end of it. i have had dreams and also seen and experienced a little from a time before i was born again in this life and would really like to know what kind of life i had previously in order to make some sense of this life. i cant speak for others who have responded here of course but i suspect that is what they wish to know too, do you understand what i mean? who was i? what was i? what is expected of me now? what can i take from a past life to help me through this present journey, i know how people see me and what they want from me and how they take from me.......... but sometimes it's not always possible to keep giving of yourself, sorry i seem to be rambling here and not finding the right words to express myself.............. can i ask another question? when we see things for others do we have a kind of duty to tell all if asked? ive been asked by someone through a dream to help someone that asked me personally in real life to help them with this present life, but they wanted me to put things right for them, all i could do was support them in finding their own way, it made me feel helpless and inadequate at the time because i couldnt do it for them, but have realised that we have to seek and find for ourselves from within......and to be honest in what we see about ourselves, even though that can be hard to accept..........
Thanks ladies, I took Old Crones advice on another site. And the read was good for both of us no signs of death but great signs of life. No excuses I will try as Aerianne said look for the good in a read.
Jenlenyn and Mary you two are up next but I will try and really focus before I read you if you two are still interested. Thanks Rick and yes as I read Old Crones info I see the excuses and yes they seam cheesy now. But to make something bettter we can not give up we have to try and better ourselves. Thanks Rick
Rick First, I am Not on another site. Yes, I have been asked but choose not to join for several reasons. So am not clear who you talked to. Second, In response to your question about classes. When the student is ready the teacher is beside them. This is because when the student and teacher realize they are both, each shares what they are so the all might grow. A person who is filled with their own self inflation, and self aggrandizement without clarity in their intent and life purpose all they will have are a bunch of pieces of information. A student will draw the kind of teacher to them that will help them on the path they are choosing to walk. How the student does this is by their own heart space and purity {or Not} that is within their intent. Kind of reminds me of the monks who after their library was destroyed, found pages and parts of many books all over the place. As they gathered up what they could they felt all was lost. They called a meeting and discussed the problem. Still after hours and no closer to a solution they felt even more lost. Just then a child ran chasing a butterfly through their meeting hall. They had their answer. One must deal with the whole for the parts to live, as much as the parts must be seen for the whole to grow. One must sometimes stop what they are doing before they can learn to begin again. In the classes I teach about opening the ability within us, know No One is more important that any one else, My first assignment is to stop what they are doing. Stop doing Readings. Stop trying to fix and help others when you can not fix and help your self. This breaks old patterns and ways of doing that have become toxic and wounding to your self and others. Strange in order to learn to see we sometimes have to look within at what what we are doing, how we are doing it, and what the results are. The only way to do this is to Stop making excuses and learn what it means to become love and true to the greater sacredness inside the all and the bigger picture. Yes, many readers become toxic readers because all they are doing is continuing the cycles of wounding and harming the self and hearts of those they read for. Erzebet1961, Windy, and Alwayscrackers Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts and reminding what is important. The gentleness of your teaching and wisdom's bathe me in compassion and humbleness. Alwayscrackers, If you do not mind, as you have not directed your questions to me, I just wanted to share with you what I saw and felt as I read your post. First our past lives are like parts in a puzzle we are putting together. Sometimes in seeing the parts the bigger picture evolves giving us a glimpse of who we are and why we are here in this moment and time. I have this giant wall tapestry I made with different pictures. Each picture is complete but the pictures together seem to come alive. With that said, I am going to jump in trusting you will not mind. Your aura, (the color that surrounds you looks like I am standing high on a mountain. The valley is far below and as far as the eyes can see. I see you lifting your wings and know you crave the winds that will embrace your flight. This tells me you are always looking for deeper answers and understanding that are hard to put into words. Kind of like wondering what is expected of the inner and outer you when both of these sides seem at war more often than you speak of. You are amazing, wonderful, and hiding. Left sometimes to the balances of lessons and experiences. Regrets and guilt serve no purpose if you dwell on them or do not learn from the living you do. Sometimes we are so afraid of our deaths we forget to live even while we are wondering what makes sense and not fearing these things at the same time. Want to change your world...change how you see your world. When I am confused I take the point that tipped me over the edge and see that moment in 5 different ways. Gives you a greater respect and insight into your life journey. Then I saw You in the life just before this one. You were a general in a battle and lost your faith in humanity and your self. You ened up in a hospital and because you could not deal with the images of war your mind went blind. Here you end up with jumpy legs at times and seek out the doubts and what is known. The lesson in this life was about beginning again. Emerging from the known as you would emerge from the cocoon around you. Know as we grow our faith is meant to be shattered so we might grow a new faith. When one is in service to the whole the whole is in service to the one. Next I see the life before that one and your father is a hell fire and brimstone preacher and wanting, demanding you follow in his foot steps. You are fighting his choices and path and yet want his approval. The lesson in this lifetime is about being true to you and what resonates with your own heart. Religion is not what sacredness is about. We are our own gods within and create with what we dare to imagine. The life before that one takes you in a convent as a young girl who is sold to the convent because the family had to many children and could not care for them. You chose a structured life and looked for the balances between the sacred and the profane. Always and throughout lifetimes your quest was about finding love. The lesson and message is what one finds they quickly loose. What one becomes they are for as long as they shall choose. So what is expected of you now is to find a way to be true to you. Find something that gives you life and feed that in your life you wish to grow. Be the peace within you without. All roads lead home and what ever path you have walked let the experiences be teachers as you grow in awareness and understanding. In all lives you have been intuitive and a dreamer. Use this to grow. You are ending a cycle and beginning a new one. Everyone has these cycles and places of change. Rebirth is our healing place. I get this image of part of your struggles and see a double exposure that lets me know you wish to go deeper and just want to know you can find the breath, hope and trust inside to make the leap from the ledge you stand on. So who are you in both the bigger and smaller picture of life. You are Breath. You are Spirit having a human experience. You are the balances of the sacred and the profane. You are the I Am inside you. The next thing I see is you standing before this wall of books wanting to know which to share and which to read. Your heart will let you know. Trust the You within. Most often when we see things we are just given an opportunity to send light and love so the individual can find their way. Often the parts of things we see are like looking at street lights. When a person is in the dark, so to speak, We send light and love and only for this moment we are part of the universe. What we send will one day come back around as we have need of. Will stop here because as I mentioned you did not ask me. May light and love guide you on your way. Should you wish would love your thoughts.
Thanks Old Crone. It is time to really find my self. Post is closed until further noticed. And yes I feel weight has been lifted.
Maybe Rick meant that he used your advice, which he read at HFs, and applied it when reading for someone at another site.
My biggest problem is I let myself be spread out to much. Wanting to help everyone. I was just doing this site and now I am again on 5 sites. When I get an email or a post I want to help. I believe on this site I helped more than hurt. I do feel lost and hurts my ability. It is hard to choose one over another. Plus I do not sit at a computer all day I work 75 hours a week and try to spend time with the family and help when I can. I need to stop all of it and finish writing my story. I am only 46 and there a lot to learn and maybe when my kids get grown then I can find my path again. Thanks to all who has been there for me.
Hi Rick...it definitely sounds like you've been spreading yourself too thin. You don't need to abandon your path you just need to refine it...give focus to yourself and your growth in your strengths and gifts and maybe just give random readings when you're feeling inspired and really, 100% up to it, with the aid of a regular spiritual practice to center you and keep you nourished in growth. Your family needs you and you need to nourish yourself with such a long work-week...this is probably not serving you very well...the people who email you and post for readings do not need you and are only asking because when you present yourself as being open to that, you give the idea that you are up to it...when you obviously are not. You're wearing yourself out. If I were you I would keep with my practice and growth, but no longer accept requests for readings.
