More Than Intuition

Times of knowing can easily be missed falling into place sometimes years later. I remember a couple of years ago during a channeling session with a friend; I said to the entities coming through “When I am fully awake I will be able to …….” The entities replied with confusion, “But you are awake.” At the time I did not understand exactly what they meant. Now I do. Once we remember the truth of who we are we are awakened. Just because we don’t remember all of our experiences or how to do all of the astonishing things that we are capable of, that does not mean we aren’t aware that if we trust ourselves we are capable of doing them. Abilities fade when not in use or when we believe we don’t have them. Like any ability when we believe in ourselves and nurture it over a period of time, that ability strengthens or in this case returns. ‘Use it or lose it’ is advisable for all of our senses not just the physical ones. Like most human beings I am used to directing my life and was very attached to what I did. With spiritual abilities it is essential that we form no expectations or attachments to outcomes. I found it almost impossible to get my head around that concept at times and my heart would ache for recognizable contact to the point where I sometimes forgot the things I have felt and seen clearly. So, I remind myself from time to time and the following are some examples of heightened awareness that I think may interest the reader. 1. I was fifteen and one day while at work and during a tea break I had a horrible unsettling feeling in the pit of my stomach that something had happened to my boyfriend. We didn’t have a phone at that time and nor did he. Keith also lived over five hundred miles away from me so I only saw him on weekends. When he arrived two weeks later I remembered to ask him what had happened to him at that time on that particular day. He told me he was in a car that was following his friend’s car home when his friend was involved in an accident. His friend was killed; a terrible tragedy and a terrible thing to witness for anyone let alone an eighteen year old. I have had unexplainable things like this happen before but felt that they fell more into the category of intuition. Like knowing what someone was going to say before they said it or answering someone’s thoughts, surprising them and me when they would say, “How did you know I was thinking that?” At those times I hear it so clearly that I think the person has actually spoken, but they haven’t! The feeling in the pit of my stomach was because I am empathic – this is not uncommon – mothers have this same connection with their children. As to hearing what people think, I don’t really know what that is – could be telepathy or clairaudience – perhaps I can really hear people think sometimes like I could hear what the announcer was saying on the old TV when it was muted. In later life I had said to my husband on a number of occasions when I was trying to sleep, “Will you stop thinking so loud I’m trying to sleep.” This is not uncommon either. 2. It is early morning and I am relieved to see our little Adelaide turtle dive off her rock and swim in the tank. She had been ill and I was happy and relieved to see her well again so went to tell Keith that she was fine. He cuddled me and said “no she died during the night and I buried her this morning before you woke up”. This was my first memory of seeing clearly beyond the veil but at the time we didn’t know that that was what had happened. I was responsible for her illness you see. We had traveled from Dalby to Atherton during a 104 F heat wave and the small amount of water she traveled with to keep her shell moist had dried up fast and her shell cracked underneath. I wasn’t aware of it until we pulled into the motel that night. Despite our efforts to save her she died two days later. I was nineteen and my husband was twenty-two and we both assumed that I saw her swimming because I couldn’t handle the guilt and loss. Yes, that is why I saw her but she was telling me she was ok now. It is not uncommon for animals, particularly beloved pets, to communicate through the veil from both sides in this way.
