Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do you still offer readings or healings? I don’t see them on your website anymore.

A: I have adjusted the way I offer general personal services, such as readings & healings since the energies are shifting so rapidly! The work I am being guided to do is very important, deep and beyond basic guidance. I seek to work with people who are called to soul evolution in this lifetime. In order to serve you better, I am focused on readings primarily done in person in order to achieve an intimate spiritual connection and to facilitate a more focused personal healing experience.

I accept new coaching clients on a voluntary, mutually agreed upon understanding. One must be intrinsically motivated & absolutely committed to their personal ascension process. Please send me a message if you feel we are in alignment.

Q: How do I book a reading?

A: You can send me a message requesting a reading and the we can decide on a time that works best.  My readings take place when the shop is closed.  Generally, available times are Tuesday-Saturday 9:30-10:30, 10:30-11:30, or 17:30-18:30, 18:30-19:30.  Please send me a message to discuss availability.

Q:  Since I was very little I have experienced seeing apparitions. They often scare me and make me feel very uneasy. I have since been put on medication and they have gone away. If these are spirits, why do they vanish once I’m on medication?

A: There is a gland in the middle of the brain called the pineal gland, which is also called the third eye because it has photoreceptors in it like the two eyes do in the retinas. Spiritual phenomena are by definition not physical (“spirit” comes from Latin meaning “breath”, which is a metaphor for things that are real but not physical, you can’t normally see or feel them physically), they exist on a different dimensional plane which is roughly speaking also where your soul resides, parallel to your physical body. The pineal gland is susceptible to influences from those other dimensions (like your whole body actually, since your soul is able to “steer” your physical body), and it enables perceptions to come in from those other dimensions into your physical brain to be perceived in a way that your brain understands as physically visual.

Of course it is possible to take medications that suppress the function of the pineal gland so that you no longer “see” spiritual phenomena, but they are still there and you can probably still perceive them in other ways, such as a sense that someone is present or someone is looking at you, or for instance you might feel an emotion that you don’t know where it came from etc (these things can be different for everyone, but in general the clearer one becomes the more easily one can perceive the subtle sensations coming from spirit).

A drug that shuts down your third eye is like most other drugs, they all work by shutting down bodily functions. For example, if you use novocaine, you won’t be able to feel something touching you, even though it is still touching you. Similarly, with drugs you won’t be able to see a spiritual phenomenon, but it is still there and still impinging on your aura (the spiritual part of your body).
