Every practioner will have their own unique way on how they give an intuitive reading and what you can expect from one. I will describe how I give readings.
An intuitive reading is a snapshot of various possible future scenerios based on the decisions that the person has made in their life up until this moment in time. I do not predict the future or determine a persons fate. The future is always changing. It is changing because you, I, and all the people in our environments are always making decisions. These decisions in turn play a part in affecting our future and how we determine our next move.
Rather than some outside force controlling those changes, it is in fact each one of us. We were all born with purpose, with strengths and capabilities. But we were also all born onto this planet with Free Will. And therefore, although we may have a type of blueprint that we come here with, it is up to us whether we choose to follow those talents or soul urgings.
So how does that then affect a reading? When an intuitive reading is given, the reader is picking up energetic patterns off of the client. These patterns integrate the current state of mind of the client and the decisions made up until this point. Therefore the reading that is given is based on where they are currently at. However, if the client were to go home and make new decisions that will chart their life on a different course, that reading will essentially go out the window.
Readings should be looked at as a guide or map, not something unchangeable and certain. A reading will give us a possible outcome based on the decisions we have made so far and the direction we are headed in. However, if we do not necessarily like what the reading is telling us or where we see our life headed based on what it says, then we have the power to change it. We are all master creators, and we are the ones that create our life story. No one else. Somewhere along the line we have forgotten that we possess that power. And we have handed it over to others instead. It is time to take it back and step into our full power again.
