Since a young age, I have always cared about living beings and nature. My dad would take me outdoors, wherever my little legs could go, and it was through him that I learned to appreciate the shining light and the warmth of the world. I would stare at bugs and admire the waterfalls and other wildlife; I was captivated by the wonders of our planet. Maybe it was only because I was a naive little girl, but that feeling stayed with me through the years and has never swayed.

As I grew older, heading into middle school and high school, I was often told I was "an old soul" which I didn't comprehend until I grew into adulthood. I began accepting it as a compliment. I started understanding this phrase more after graduating high school, and what it truly meant to be an "old soul." It didn't simply mean someone who is naive and kind, it was deeper than that. I had frequently asked myself "wouldn't it be cool if I could talk to the other side and help loved ones with their grief or help them find closure?" Helping people is something that has always come naturally to me. Whether it was the way I was raised, or just how I am, it's something I hold dearly and will never stray from. I simply can't compute how others are cruel to one another and will never understand how it gets so far as to cause wars that harm innocent people. But that's a story for another blog post.

I had made a friend in high school who was one of my closest friends until he passed away in 2020. We had great conversations about spiritual topics, and he recommended me a book called The Celestine Prophecy. This book, while it is fiction, opened me up spiritually and I am not sure I would be writing this post at 1 AM if it weren't for my friend and this book. That time of my life helped build the foundation for the next experiences I would have. I was sad and afraid of what would happen next, and I wanted to badly to be able to talk to him, and I would. After he passed away, I was scared. I was afraid of the unknown, and where he might be at. I tried to contact him by text, by speaking out loud, by hoping he was in my dreams, but nothing worked. Nothing gave me comfort. I wish he was on this plane to experience it with me. But I know he is somewhere and hopefully watching over me. I have yet to connect with him, but I am sure he is around.

In 2023 my curiosity and uncertainty about life led me to researching about psychic gifts and metaphysical. I was feeling lost emotionally and spiritually. I had grown up around Christianity, but no religion ever made sense to me, in fact they usually made me uncomfortable. I could never grasp why a higher being that is full of light and love would basically gaslight their followers into believing in them "or else bad things happen when you die." We only get one chance to be good on this planet, or else we suffer in hell for eternity? It didn't and still doesn't sit right with me. I was searching for answers about experiences I had, and questioning that there had to be more, and it wasn't what we think it is. In my soul, I knew there was something more, but I just know what exactly that was. My subconscious, un-awoken mind knew, and it was leading me to where I needed to be.

I decided to look into seeing a psychic. I did some research on psychics and mediums in my area. I felt like an in-person reading would be best, I thought video readings would be "less accurate" at the time. I found a few and eliminated some due to bad reviews and used my intuition about others. I chose one and made an appointment! I thought "if anything, I tried it. If nothing happens, I won't be disappointed."

Not only was I not disappointed, but I was also astonished at the information I was given. Everything began to make sense. I was very nervous about my first reading with her, but it ended up being very insightful. She told me that I have the abilities to do these readings on myself, that I am psychic, that I have mediumship, healing, and clairvoyant abilities. That information almost didn't feel like news to me, but more of a validation of who I really am. Like I somehow knew this, but I needed someone to tell me. I pondered it for a couple months. I was still questioning everything including the abilities she told me that I had. It made sense yet I hesitated about everything. I ended up going back every once in a while, for what I call a "spiritual checkup."

Every reading I've had was accurate and fulfilling in various ways. I kept pondering about my potential abilities and in one session with my regular psychic, she told me “Your guides are there to support you when you're ready." I was impatient; I had wanted to have these abilities since I was little! I didn't know what to do to create this reality, so I did more research. I tried doing guided meditations, learning healing abilities on my own, and reading books about metaphysical.

Eventually things started lining up. Once I opened up to the idea of any of these things truly existing is when coincidences started becoming synchronicities. Repeating numbers started meaning something deeper. Feelings that ended up coming true were no longer chance, they were my intuition growing. I now like to think of synchronicities as psychic breadcrumbs; they are little treats for us along our journey to let us know we are going the right direction.

The beginning of 2025 seemed to be the peak of the beginning of my spiritual journey, along with my 30th birthday. It is said that the age of 29 to 31 is a turning point in our lives and may manifest a spiritual awakening. I started this blog to share the story of my journey and all the experiences that I've had in between.
