Recently I was asked
“What would you tell someone who is considering getting a Spiritual Reading?”
here’s my answer:
1) When getting a reading, remembering your Free Will is key.
Humans are tremendously capable and creative beings. We each have our own creative power, and the freedom to will that power into existence. There is a rumor going around that our Free Will is a gift from Spirit.
Therefore when receiving a reading I suggest:
I don’t mean to discourage you in your quest for your truth and your direction… just the opposite.
You can ask to look at any situation or choice that is before you, and examine the energy of that situation in the present moment. By doing this you will see which direction you are currently headed. If it doesn’t look how you’d like, then you can start to heal that path.
This supports you to make your own decisions. By opting to heal yourself and walk your own unique path, you honor the gift of your own spiritual freedom.
2) Getting a reading can be a wonderful gift of an outside perspective, a spiritual perspective.
It can be hard to see everything clearly from within ourselves. I can be very useful to receive information from an outside source, someone who is much more neutral, someone with a spiritual perspective...
In our society that is materially-focused we are trained (consciously and unconsciously) to doubt or ignore our own spiritual information. When receiving a reading from a spiritually-dedicated individual, you are spiritually validated. A conversation is started with the spiritual life energy that enchants your physical form.

Therefore when receiving a reading I suggest:
- Avoid advice: Information is useful, but you are an adult and don’t need to be told what to do. A healing is empowering when the healer’s words resonate with a truth you already know inside, even if that knowing is very deep.
- Avoid predictions of your future: The only moment you can ever own is NOW. The only space in which you can harness your immense creative power is HERE. You choose your route, and you can shift your direction anytime by choosing Here & Now to make a change; by choosing to heal.

This is the gift of a reading – you are receiving a perspective on
yourself as spirit and your creations (your life, body, relationships,
etc) that is outside your own usual consciousness. It can be like
looking in a sacred mirror, receiving a reflection of yourself from a
different angle.
This is potentially an incredible blessing!
The atmosphere of a HELPFUL READING: Optimally, your reader will give you a spiritual perspective:
3) Getting a reading is like a Spaghetti fight – what sticks to you, is yours.
In a reading, I encourage you to take what resonates with your deeper truth and leave the rest. You want to stay open minded during a reading, because opening spiritually is usually a new experience and parts of you may meet resistance or fear of this new (but truly beautiful, plentiful and safe) world.
If the reader says something that doesn’t align with your information at all, if you’re thinking “I don’t think so” then let it go.
Please don’t take the reader’s information over your own.
Meanwhile, as a rule: take what is said and let it bake, ruminate on it:

- Even things that don’t initially seem true for you may produce something fruitful upon reflection.
- If something is bugging you, I recommend letting it sit on ‘the shelf’ for a few days; then meditate on it, ask God what the gift is for you in this information.
I encourage you to let this perspective
from outside yourself, hopefully a spiritual perspective, inform your
life and your living.
4) But, most importantly, I urge you to
continue to develop your own spiritual ‘ears’, ‘eyes’, ‘knowing’ etc.;
so you can continue to deepen as the authority in your own life, the
driver of your own car (life).
Blessings on your Unique Journey, Wendy
