Readings | The Tool & Rejecting “Modern-Day Spiritual” Garbage

Readings are a Tool. I discuss this all throughout my website and I continuously emphasize how readings pertain to a client’s life in the here and now with threads tying together Past-Present-Future.
The beauty of our modern age is that I can have a video conference with a client in California, a phone call with a client a town over from me, and send an Audio Read seamlessly. Technological advancements in communication are what enables me to help anyone across the globe. All my gadgets synch together allowing all the files to be contained in a folder and sent right to a client without hassle. I literally have no reason to ever spend money for an office space. Even group mediumship readings are done so easily via Zoom!
That would be about it regarding our modern age and technology involved in the psychic field. Social media and YouTube are an endless stream of mostly uselessness, tackiness, and misleading “information” concerning Psychism. Now don’t get me wrong…there are some wise, brilliant, and proficient practitioners who use the positive aspects of social media and YouTube, but the majority of what I see when I (rarely) cast my hazel eyes on the internet…is bullshit.
I had an excellent phone reading with a client yesterday. A psychic reading. This client knew exactly how to use me as a tool. This client understood how readings with me operate: PSI mechanics, my role, client’s role. I brought through information pertaining to my client’s life and experience in the NOW while threads of the Past and Future were woven into the Present. Information I relayed that the client stitched together the clues - I was the Mirror reflecting back what was consciously known and unconsciously known at the time of the reading. Topics about very real things in real life on planet Earth.
This is what I love about PSI. Information received and delivered regarding someone’s life without the twisted “spiritual” mumbo-jumbo…without the “galactic lives”…without the verbiage of “5D Consciousness” or “Awakening” speech.
Assumptions I face in this work are mostly about people perceiving me as Guru XYZ they see in a 15 second clip on social media. The automatic assumption that psychic means “spiritual teacher” or “enlightened prophet”. Then obviously, on the opposite side of the coin, assumptions that I’m a con-artist and all that crap.
I want my clients to know what they are buying when they schedule a reading with me. How I can help them using my skills. How to use me as a Tool. The various types of information I can pick up on in a reading and how the information is about our experience on Earth.
People are investing their hard earned money, time, and energy into a reading. I don’t take this lightly and I care about ensuring my clients’ perceptions and expectations align with the reality of how I can help them without the distortions parading the internet.
Yesterday’s reading was exactly what I care about the most: helping people navigate their life via information received through PSI.
I have seen countless times of “spiritual language and information” be a means of manipulation, ego, and a strategy to disassociate from our real lives on planet Earth. I want no part in that and I also do not care to do any work in forms of “spiritualness”. I wrote many times how PSI has nothing to do with “spirituality” and I say that because of how twisted everything is under the label of “spirituality”. If you say PSI skills are spiritual then you must say that every other skill that humans can learn and perform are also spiritual.
To Read. That’s it.
Yesterday’s reading was also the first reading booked post my website/practice Evolution! I got to use my new iPad in the reading too! Working with my ideal type of client, giving the client’s reading everything that I could, and feeling the value of my work’s function as a Tool are all of my Dream come true.
I don’t want to disappoint anyone nor waste their time which is why I want to make it clear that I am not a spiritual teacher, I have no interest in the popular “spiritual” bullshit on the internet, and that I am an extension of the great Readers from yesteryear - classical reading aka Information.
