Growing up I was always fascinated with the shows that contained magical powers, I Dream of Jeanie and Bewitched were two of my favorites. Even at that young age I always thought, I can do that too! I would sit for hours on end and make up imaginary situations and scenarios only to have them happen at a later time. It wasn’t until much later did I realize it was a form of focusing and meditation and precognition.

I began to really pay attention when I would have a dream and then it would happen. It began with situations close to family and friends. As I got older the circle widened to people I had not met yet, only to meet them within days of my dreams and the dream would play out. Even older yet, I began to have dreams of plane crashes which would also occur, with location and cause of the crash. So, I paid close attention to the feeling of the dreams, such as how intense and clear they were. A sequence of events in the dream as opposed to a jumbled up dream told me which ones I should pay attention to. I now refer to them as ‘one of those’ dreams.

Precognition, for me is a way of life, I don’t know how else to be. I’ve had people ask me over the years, when did I first realize I was different? Well, I never thought I was different, I assumed everyone was like me. Up until I was a teenager I talked openly and freely about these situations never once thinking that the looks I received from friends and family were concerning them and thinking I was a bit odd. It was then that I thought I’d better try and fit in with society and even though I tried to ignore my impressions of people and situations, they were still there. So, I began to read, and read, and, well, read as many books as I could get my hands on. I needed to make sense of this, why Me? I thought, what makes Me so different? The fact is, I’m not all that different. Each one of us has these abilities. It’s just a matter of tapping into them and listening, really listening. It’s about paying attention and having trust and faith in yourself.

Then I began to realize I could see ghosts, spirits or discarnates whichever term you prefer. I affectionately call them ‘Guests’. I could hear them, sense them, see them, smell them and I began to associate them with the people I was talking to. I also realized that when I met someone I would get glimpses of their lives. Personal details I’d otherwise not know or have a way of knowing. Some good things and some things they probably wouldn’t share or want someone to know. I trust these images, some call them instincts. Call them what ever you like, but again, it goes back to trusting yourself and having faith.

People started to ask me for my impressions, what did I see? Could I ‘read’ them? I utilized the tarot cards, not only for a visual tool, but I found it made people more comfortable with my readings. So that I wasn’t just pulling information out of the air, I was actually ‘reading’ something. I also delved into palmistry, yet another visual tool.

As I stated earlier, I tried to hide my abilities and ‘be normal’ in society, fit in. Then one day I realized that I was denying myself a natural talent. Why? People all over the world have natural talents, some sing, some dance and some play music. They don’t hide their talents, why am I hiding mine? Everyone is born with some level of natural abilities whether it’s music or the arts, or having psychic experiences. It’s a matter of tuning in to them and embracing them, practicing and trusting them.
