Tapping into your intuitive gifts and using them to the full potential.

If you had of asked me two years ago what The future me would be doing. I’d tell you likely working in some job I dislike. I have bills to pay and I am a single mother and or possibly dead from all the bad decisions I’ve made and the lack of knowledge to understand my intuition and how powerful it actually is.

It took me an entire year of events to unfold for me to realize why I’ve been where I’ve been and how I ended up in the spot I’m on and how crazy it all sounds if I even try to tell anyone. This is how people get committed into an insane asylum or wrapped up in a jacket with no holes for hands and shoved in a white room somewhere. But not me …. Nope I am the fighter, the stubborn yet empathetic compassionate, crazy, down to earth know it all been there done that and nobody can top me chick. Oh just your average west coast woman you say? Not likely! I’m full of magic and and Witt with a few dashes of inviting and a few hand fulls of Devine.

Devine what ? you are likely asking yourself. That’s why I am here to tell you my points and views of spirituality and how everyone’s doing it wrong. But first let’s go over some point form topics and platform so I don’t lose you along the way.

Sit back and get ready to read about an energy we all wish for, we all hope and dream of, and I’ll tell you how it all unfolded for me and what I came from to where I ended up and how I’m still travelling to the finish line.

My eyes my story my truth.

So I bet most people think this

She woke up after 30 years of life and decided to be a medium and a psychic? What an idiot, people actually pay her to do this when she’s clearly lying. I’ve known her since grade school and she’s a nobody how’d this even happen? I’m sure of some other assumptions but I won’t write them.

Lets see here first of

  • Mediumship
  • Psychic abilities
  • Intuitive knowledge
  • Seeing
  • Believing
  • And the bull shit

What’s the bull shit you ask? The bull shit is the false representation of God. It’s drives me insane watching even some of the best mediums and psychics in the world preach about false Godly things to live by. Guess what, I happen to talk to him a lot and he’s finally going to straighten some of these things out. We are doing it wrong!

First and foremost mediumship, it’s not something you can teach. You either have it or you don’t. What you can do though is tap into it. You can learn how to use the gift you have but you can not learn the gift or teach it to someone that simply does not have it. If we all had it then it wouldn’t be a gift anymore. But with the right teachings and the right mind frame and a little guidance, I can help you tune into your intuitive knowledge and wisdom that you have no idea you had in the first place.

Mind you there are some special ones and I mean they are chosen before birth and they are God’s vessels here on earth. I am 34 years old and I’ve had the life of a star on a fictional movie that was drama and action with a little bit of crime but not much just enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. But I’m telling you none of it made sense to me until recently I am chosen. Yes I know I sound like a crazy hoo haa! I’m not…

I one day found out I was a psychic medium but mind you before this I knew I was really intuitive like really damn good! I could spot a liar before they even talked and voiced over their lying cowardly ways. I was pointing my finger already “ don’t talk to that lying bastard” my friends would be like “ ummmm .. why ?” “ well because I know he’s gonna lie and screw your around before you even tell him your name” then comes the “okay Shannon whatever, do you even want me to be happy or do you just live in negativity?” Oh here we go “well no buddy I just love you and I want the best for you, I’m good at reading people” …. “NO you aren’t!! You ate good at making everyone miserable because you can’t find love so you want none of us to find love, And I’m sick of it! I’m going to talk to him and I hope we get married!” “Okay Cheryl suit yourself, remember I love you”

Wait for it

Three weeks later…….

Ring ring ring “ hello”

Friend “oh hey Shan, how are you?”

Me “oh I’m amazing! I’ve been channeling tapping in and it’s going great”

Friend “oh ya nice , so I’m heart broken”

Me “ mmmmmhhmmmmm”

And you can put the rest together. This was seriously all the time growing up and in my adult years. I knew when shit wasn’t real I knew when people were bad news but I only ever seemed to catch the bad I never knew when someone was an amazing person and they were here for the higher good. I only knew the bad. So it seemed like I was this negative Nancy always looking to ruin my friends and families fun. Always the enemy..

But there was a reason for that, and I now know what it was. I didn’t fit into anyone’s category of what likeable was or what fun was or interesting. I was too busy showing people the obvious along with the fake and the real that I didn’t get to show them me because I was always busy saving them from the things they didn’t or couldn’t see and I unfortunately did. I just thought I was really good at calling bullshit. But it was far deeper than that. I was doing gods work and I was doing it specifically chosen by him for him. See now here is where the one half of people reading go hmmmm okay I like where this is going. Then the other half goes .. What a conceited attention whore. She’s fucking crazy who is this chick someone stop her it’s embarrassing. Yes I nailed it, follow me on Twitter! Hahahaha

We hate being joyful for other people’s accomplishments because that’s what society has jammed into your head. They nailed that one in so hard that people started being so competitive they had to make everything and everyone equal. Well why? We aren’t. And there’s a reason for that. Timmy might be a good runner for something he doesn’t even know hey whole Johnny might be really bad at running so that Timmy can become who he needs to become without knowing what that is yet. It’s not weird it’s perfect and Devine! It’s the law of the universe. We can’t all do the same things and be good at the same things.

When someone says to me, god? You believe in god? Yes I do. Well if there’s a god then why do bad things happen to good people? Because who’s to say that they are bad things and who’s to say they aren’t going through those bad things because they are good? What if I told you the good people go through tons of bad things so they can become even better. For someone else. Or the people that go through nothing simply aren’t good enough to be one of gods employed per say or one of his vessels. Sure you might live a nice life with very little hardship or trauma but that doesn’t make you better. That makes you less useful to the man in charge for the things he needs help doing.

Now, there’s a difference between starving for your entire life because you live somewhere that supplies very little food. But do you know how much food is there that they don’t eat because they aren’t getting it? God can place bountiful everything in every single persons hands here on earth but what would that do for us? We would depend on him doing that forever.

When your children get older you start cooking their food but then they can feed it to themselves, then after they ask you to take their plate away what do you do? If you take the plate for them they will ask you every time. You didn’t keep hand feeding them as they grew so why would you keep cleaning their mess forever ? They would be helpless. Counting on you to do their dirty work. They got to enjoy the food but that’s it and shit that’s an amazing way to live! I wish … not. I like doing things for myself. If god made all our lives perfect what would we be? What would we learn. Christians and Catholics tell you, “ do not sin therefor our lord will come down on the and raise havoc and give you to the devil” well I’m sorry but that’s so untrue it’s laughable. God died for our sins. If we didn’t sin then he died for nothing. When we sin we learn when we learn we progress when we progress we build and when we build we evolve it’s she start to evolution! Sin baby sin! He is okay with it. These religions telling you to be perfect all the time are nuts. I’m sorry but it’s true. Instead they call people like me nuts and a devil worshiper. Oh my my my the only devil is the one that represents gang like groups and clans, *cough *, Christian’s * cough* and the rest. They take your money and tell you god wants that. No he doesn’t. He wants to give you some but not take it. He has no needs and wants other than you and your prosperity and forgiveness within yourself for your sins. The sins that hurt you and damage you mentally and physically. He wants you to be the kind of perfect that takes wrong doings to be right.

There’s only one thing god asks you to give up to him and when he asks for this he means it in a way most people can’t and don’t know how to do. Trust him and have faith in him. HIM not these practicing’s. HIM! If you can’t bare another day I. Your situation, we get it it’s okay we have been there. Surrender to him give yourself to him ask only him for help don’t rely on anyone not even yourself just him and trust with all the faith within you that he will catch you and guide you back to where you need to be. That is what he wants, it’s not hard but it is when you are taught differently. If you give even if it’s to people that don’t deserve it, you’ll get it back I promise but only if you are giving expecting to lose it and never see it again but still give anyways. To many people give in hopes of receiving something better because you gave. Giving is the easy part it’s the taking after that’s not. When that basket goes around the church and he sees people’s money being taken for such ridiculous causes and cults it breaks his being down because that’s his name being drug through that dirt.

My life was and has been full of trauma, hurt, manipulation, mental abuse, physical abuse, and shady shit. I have a father that has never said I love you, and told me his love is conditional. I have a mother that blamed me for being born and her life being taken away. I have two half siblings that won’t ever get me or connect with me, and a step dad that has been drinking himself to death since I can remember. I left when I was 17 and I had drug issues right away and drinking problems .. they both quickly turned into uncontrollable addictions that I couldn’t Manage. I asked for helps numerous times and nobody would help me. They all walked away because it was easier to walk away because facing it means asking themselves if they played a part in it or facing their own Demond’s. I kept asking myself why? Why would they walk away when I want help? There’s families out there beging their loved ones to get help and they refuse but they still wait with open arms. I asked my place of employment which is a government position and they said no ! I’m even covered under the mental health act and they said no! After I was told yes .. mind you. But whatever it didn’t make me feel less valuable it made me look at them all as un needed and unworthy of having me. I got this. But the truth is I don’t But what I do have is way more power and love from the universe because I am part of the plan.

God wants us to all stop following the made up crap about him be real. He created these times, these eras, all of it. He adjusts to it all. You don’t have to please him by doing what they say. This is where mediums and psychics come into his Devine mixture and plan of life as we evolve. We are messengers, the bible ( which has been altered from its original scriptures to suit the cults and followers in their times of growth and change) talks about Gods messengers.

People die to fusillade a purpose not because they were bad people. Most of the time it’s good people that go because what use are bad people? You need the best of the best to do these jobs! If he took all the people that commuted crimes and had no desire to change because they dark side as taken them too deeply then he just doesn’t have time for that and he’s picking the most precious most Devine willing and capable souls to work with..

Messengers are one thing but a messenger who has been chosen is special. They are alive and here on earth and some are not. But the chosen are . They have so much on them that most people could never possibly carry it all. They have the job of making sure all the people get their messages and speak for God himself to all of the people here and take on a lot of other people burdens so that they don’t have to anymore and then after that they have to take care of themselves which it never goes well because God himself is putting them through a life of trials and errors with hardships and lessons so much that it just seems impossible to get through and some have taken their lives because they couldn’t carry it all. That is never his wish and it would be prevented if he could but those are decisions he can’t control. He usually does a fine job of molding these people enough but still keeping their sanity in check. Barely sometimes!! Lol but that means they are strong. I am extremely strong and it gets exhausting but now that I know why, I feel purpose and as long as I feel purpose it’s all worth it.

When I would tell someone about my week, usually they would tell me I’m screwed or making it up, and I can assure you my life is 100 percent real. We just don’t always know why things are happening but even when it seems like it’s all bad and it can’t be a good sign to have everything go wrong. But if you handle it all then what do you have to worry about? These things are happening for you not to you. If we only had the little hand book. I have the one advantage now where I am aware and sure that I am a vessel and I am portraying Gods wishes upon his people. His creations and extending the co creation with him. I can’t tell you for sure that he calls himself god but he does answer me when I speak to him and he’s always making sure I’m okay. I’m still waiting for my good deeds that are purely coming from the kindness of my heart.

I’m going to end this column with one truth about this and it’s how I knew he could answer me. And it only took off from there. I was laying in bed after a medium told me my answers would be in speaking to god. Talk to the man and see what he says. Well al I thought was, I won’t hear anything back… what’s the point. But I did it, I poured my desperation out to him and asked him to guide me and show me where he was leading me and to let me know if I am going the right ways. Well I crap you not, I had not even finished yet and a flash on my TV screen ( it was at the end of a Netflix show) had a picture on it and scrolling across the bottom said “ one day at a time” and I’m telling you. When you know he answered you know! There’s no feeling like that … I couldn’t Contain the joy I felt. I was laughing and crying at the same time shaking and excited. I felt hopeful and I trusted that the process was working for me and I went with it. The second time led me here. To this page, and I’m yet to see the full power of my guidance which is what I need for my miracle to become real but I trust that he is taking me there and he won’t let me down because he needs me as much as I need no. Right now so he wants me to believe just as much as I want to! Pay attention to your surroundings, he just might be answering you and you’ve missed it. Ask him to be louder and he will be.
