Motherhood Intuition

My youngest child is a freshman in college. I miss his physical plant and his humor, his need for food and help with chores. Something else has been missing and I just figured it out--Motherhood Intuition.

At my daughter's first cry, it kicked in. I somehow knew when she needed me. My children's nuances of behavior seldom slid past me. Their unspoken wants became my desires. Instinctively I cared for them and put them first. The house bulged with feeling and pathos and anger and love.

Now I live alone. My vibes bounce against white walls. I listen for sounds no longer made, for wants now manifested by my grown children. My intuition felt dead.

It is now spring and I know my intuition is alive. No longer Motherhood Intuition, it sweeps and sways and holds court over friends and neighbors, my sister and mom, and clients who seek my services.

Don't tell me it is not done. They are grown, it is done. Now I am a friend to my children. Friend Intuition has taken its place. I am both resigned and relieved.

Ghosts in the Museum

What word do you use, ghosts or spirits? If they are benign, I call them spirits. If they bother me or anyone else, I call them ghosts. Yesterday I saw plenty at the Historical Society Museum in York, Pennsylvania.

It started with a small pair of gloves. From those gloves, hands emerged. From those hands, a woman emerged, a serene lady who hated to clean, loved tea, and liked gloves because they covered her red and chapped hands.

At the blue velvet wedding gown display, a homely face floated out of a high collared lace neckline. This girl had beautiful skin, lovely lips, and brown, wavy, luxuriant hair. I saw her father, a judge, and her mother, a perfectionist. The dress signified freedom from the confines of a rigid household.

My museum companion barely talked. "Swords, swords, swords," he muttered.

I saw blood drip off a curved relic. I noticed a broken and healed wrist attached to sword with a tiger head top. I smelled sweaty men, tobacco and horses. My ears hurt from the noise of battle.

Grandfather clocks with no sound bombarded me. This house, that room. Narrow people and rotund.

The '50's kitchen replica felt like home. I leaned over its barrier and my spirit sank into a chair. My pretend mother gave me cake. The open door of the ice box released smells that no longer exist.

I loved it. I suggest you visit your local museum. Check out the ghosts and spirits. Open your senses and enter the past.

Follow Your Heart or Stay on Your Path--Psychic Advice for Michele

I am in my last year of law school, and I am having trouble deciding where my path leads. Basically, I have an almost certain job offer at a small insurance firm where I work part time now, but I feel drawn to work as a district attorney or in public interest. Will I get an offer in one of those areas or should I stick to where I am?

Michele

You have a strong heart and a good work ethic. I can answer this question as a teacher instead of a psychic, although both my jobs intertwine. Follow your heart. You will get a job as a district attorney or in the public interest if you stay in that path 100%.

Getting through law school means you have given 100% so far. Why stop now? Money can come later. A job at a firm can be part of your distant future. While you are young, take chances, do good work and follow your dreams. You will get any job you want, although it could take a bit of time or involve a move within 100 miles.

Go for the gusto gal!

Snoop a Stranger's Business--Psychic Advice for Chip and his sister

My nephew died from leukemia this year. My sister is mourning. She is thinking about contacting a medium. Do you know anything about them?
Chip

I do not know any mediums personally. I did talk to a client last month whose son had passed on, yet she was still able to see him. She asked for my help in trying to hear him. I suggested that her ability to see him was a gift and I encouraged her to be happy with either seeing or hearing him.

If your sister does decide to try to find a medium, be really careful. People claim to be what they are not. It takes a huge amount of energy for me to work on murder cases...to see and hear people who have passed. I do not know how anyone could work as a medium more than once, or at most, twice a day.

Instead of seeking another person to be a medium, maybe your sister can try to do it on her own. When she is reminded of her son, I suggest she try not to fight it, despite her pain. Hear him and see him and immerse herself in what she might believe is a memory. Psychic abilities and memories lie on the same brain path...a floating kind of looseness of thought.

To connect with another dimension, one must not be afraid. To experience anything new, one must use a leap of faith. We all have difficulty with change, and her son has changed form. His physical plant is gone but he can live on in her mind and life. She can find joy where he found joy.

I hope I have helped. My best to your family in your time of sorrow.

Stuck in Time

"Hey, Jan, saw your show on Discover ID last week," the horn teacher at the music store where I teach voice told me.

In 1993, I told a local county detective where to find a missing killer. As a result of that case, I was featured on Psychic Witness, a Circle of Enemies in 2006. When the producer of the show first called me, I was hesitant to expose my abilities. For all my life, I kept my pro bono psychic work a secret. Even with cops, I used only my middle name, Helen.

When it was time for my show to air in 2006, I did a big publicity drive...newspapers, television news, local magazines. I opened up to my friends, who then laughed. They thought I was making it all up. They thought they knew me.

I didn't tell them because I was scared. Very little frightens me, but the thought of hurt for my children puts me in a spin. Would they be ridiculed? Would they suddenly have new friends who wanted their fortunes told? Would I lose music students and not be able to support all three of us?

My worries dissolved with the advent of the show. My teenagers' lives didn't change and mine changed only a little. I was 54 and well equiped to handle a bit of fame.

Here's the best part of Psychic Witness reruns. I am perpetually 54. Like Mayberry and The Beverly Hillbillies, I am stuck in time. This is a NO CHANGE I enjoy.


Readers: Any NO CHANGE situations you want to share?

Snoop a Stranger's Business--Psychic Advice for Flo

During a routine surgery a nerve was damaged and my digestive system has been paralyzed. I am planning to go to another state to get a second opinion. Will I get the proper treatment from the doctors here in my state and will I win a lawsuit to pay for my treatment?
Flo

Flo, it is important to trust your instincts. Something is drawing you to another state for a second opinion, and it seems that you are leaning towards treatment in that state. When terrible things happen to nice people, I feel awful. My desire for your lawsuit win overshadows my abilities. I want you to have the money to pay for treatments, and I think you will find it.

We all have the gift of intuition. Use yours wisely, be optimistic in looking at the positive ways your life has changed, and visualize good health. I believe relief will come.

Do You See Psychic Stuff All Day Long?

I try not to "see" things all day. I struggle to keep the left...analytical...side of my brain in action when I leave the house. Before I started work on murder cases in 1991, I was a social gal. When I opened the vent of my intuitive abilities, I felt bombarded with feelings and knowledge of the unknown. I then became a bit of a hermit.

I teach music, so my intuitive abilities help me there, but I cannot let my mind run amok through my music client's house and life. I liken it to feeling sad over the loss of a pet. You grieve, then you pull yourself out of it and have some happy times. Or I liken it to worry about money. Why worry all day? Put those worry feelings in a drawer to be opened later.

Yes, the answer to your question is yes. I see things all day long. Quite possibly, you "see" things all day long too. Acknowlege your intuitive thoughts and you will have more of them.
