Dear Sarah,
Putting psychic visions and intuitions into actual words in order to communicate them to others in a way they'll understand is one of the most difficult things to learn.
It requires a sincere lifelong chase for the Light and the commitment to keep chasing. Finding just the right language, words and expressions is never easy, but every reading you do will deepen your discernment.
As improving your ability requires practice, you're wise to do thousands of readings. With each one, your psychic vocabulary will grow.
Learn to slow the flashes down and examine them, and block some of those feelings. A psychic does not have to experience everything in a client's past, present and future to do a reading. Also, be courageous in what you say to your clients and friends.
Using a tool might help, and anything you're drawn to use can help you. Even rocks or pieces of colored string (which are much easier to carry than rocks!) can be used as divination tools. Experiment with lots of different things until you find something that speaks to you in a language you're able to translate.
Even if you don't get much from tools like tarot or astrology, using processes that follow a sequential order can help you figure out what to say. Combining tools can create another checkpoint in a reading.
Find tools that speak to you, and remember that you don't have to know why something works as long as it does - by which I mean that the person getting the reading finds the answers that are needed.
To me, the most important answers come in response to specific questions, as these help me focus what I'm seeing more than anything else. I feel it wastes time to speak about vague, general information when most clients are seeking specific guidance about some aspect of their lives.
However, if I'm answering a relationship question and I see an automobile accident, I SAY SO. I don't let something like that go by.
If you see, hear or feel something that could be a disaster for the client, and you communicate that even if she didn't ask you anything about that subject, you empower her to change the outcome of that negative event and perhaps prevent it from happening at all.
I'm sure a lot of readers will tell you that when they first started out doing readings, they were tentative. Each person learns things differently and in their own time.
You can learn how to say what you're seeing and feeling to others and feel confident that you're correctly passing on that information. Start with one or two readings every day, and build up from there.

Dear Sarah,
This is a challenge for most psychics and mediums when they first start out, as the rush of information that comes in can definitely be overwhelming.
Your e-mail reminds me of the first time I started scrying or trying to read my crystal ball. At first, the images came in so fast I couldn't get a clear take on them. It was as if the Universe had the remote control and kept flipping through the channels so fast I couldn't even tell what was on.
As your skills develop and your trust in what you are hearing or sensing grows, you'll be able to slow down these visions so you can tell what the messages are and whether or not to share them.
As a professional psychic, I can tell you that not all the information we receive or the visions we see can or should be shared with the person we're reading for. This of course also goes for people we cross paths with who may spontaneously evoke psychic information. It's very important that we approach others with a clear sense of purpose and awareness.
For example, you might have a dream or vision of your neighbor that seems very profound, and based on how open your neighbor is to metaphysical matters, you may choose to share your dream, or you may just sit back and see if the vision comes to pass.
We all have experiences with messages, insights or visions that confuse us. I wonder how many people began sensing the events that unfolded on 9/11 long before they occurred.
From what I have witnessed and others have shared with me, these visions were clouded in obscurity because this event needed to come to pass, without interference, for a higher purpose.
In fact, I had a tarot student call that very morning, really upset because she had pulled three cards: the Tower, the World and the 8 of rods (which often represents air planes or travel). I wasn't sure why she was upset until she told me to turn on the TV.
I encourage you to hone your gifts more through practice. This will give you the power to slow down and get more information. You may also want to strengthen and validate what you are sensing through another medium, such as tarot, astrology, or a crystal pendulum.
With practice, you can even ask Spirit to give you more information, clarify what you're seeing, and advise you on whom to share what with based on whether or not they are ready to hear it.
I also suggest you find a lapis stone necklace or bracelet to wear, as this stone has the power to bring your visions and subtle perceptions into a picture or form that will be easier for you to interpret.
I wish you the best of luck in mastering your psychic gifts, Sarah! |
