I have always been intuitive<\/a><\/strong> — beginning with prophetic dreams at a very early age. The mystical arts fascinated me during my teens, when Tarot cards were introduced into my intuitive arsenal. It was age 21 when my gifts charged up and I became able to plug in and control them more readily.<\/p>\n

To encapsulate a long story, I was\u00a0near death<\/a><\/strong> over a period of about two weeks of hospitalization for an unexplained ailment. During this critical time, I accepted my imminent death and began to have things revealed to me via prolonged visions. Although I did not perish and go into the light, I experienced such an ongoing time of lingering at the brink that I was reborn … and I truly view my second chance as a second life.<\/p>\n

Fear of death<\/a><\/strong> was replaced by excitement for life, and eagerness to devour knowledge, and enjoyment of every moment of the human experience — even the unsavory pangs of betrayal and loneliness. My recovery was a speedy one, after the accurate diagnosis was made. I believe the experience had to occur. It was the most revealing, self-actualizing time in my life thus far. I embraced my humanity and my gifts and embarked on the first chapter of a new life. Although my professional life varied over the years, I have always embraced my intuitive self and kept that aspect of my conscience on the ready.<\/p>\n

Hurricane Katrina destroyed my home, along with some professional dreams, and physically displaced me as well. It was actually a blessing, as it gave me the quiet and pause to realize that I needed to return to a more psychic immersion to heal myself and others, who longed to put their lives back together. Ever since the hurricane, I have worked as an intuitive in the professional psychic realm and would not change a thing. I have found my bliss … but the story has many chapters and volumes to come!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
