There’s an awesome psychic course run by a funky psychic mentor, or a great spiritual development group with like minded people to help with intuition, but there’s a feeling of not being ready. Those fear tingles you feel? It’s a good sign.

Though no one ever feels ready for anything, (think childbirth, moonwalking or doing taxes,) there are three signs that next psychic course might be a good fit for you.

Recently a lovely psychic graduate was thinking of upgrading to my monthly membership. She felt it would be like swimming in the big kids’ pool, but she had reservations that really boiled down to one thing: Am I good enough? (She was.)

Three ways to tell if you’re ready for psychic training:

Even though we are never ready, the reverse is also true – the soul has always been ready. Your soul’s waited patiently for you to come along the path, laid out carefully spaced breadcrumbs to follow and ever gently nudging you along the path of spiritual growth.

Have you ever felt like the right course, mentorship or retreat was almost made for you.? That’s the soul doing its job. It’s led you on unique stepping stones to get you exactly the point that you’re at now.

The soul is always a little ahead, patiently waiting for you to catch up.

The second way we know we’re ready for psychic training is by funky coincidences. You know those. The way a certain person keeps popping up, or a book fairly stalks you around till one day, there it is in a jumble sale or a friend passes it on.

Funky coincidences are a universal sign and they almost always have a touch of magic to them. When the synchronicities occur – take note!

The fear tingles

Frankly, if you didn’t have that little tingle of fear when considering your next psychic step, I’d be worried.

The fear tingles are very human and it means that next step is seriously considered and already impacting on you. Fear tingles are the nervous systems way of registering the potential growth that’s about to happen as you step into a new unknown.

Without that tingle of fear, the decision may simply ego based and hollow, leading to eventual disappointment when the ego doesn’t actually get its prize.  Best way to deal with fear tingles? Feel them and do it anyway.

Three ways to tell if you’re not ready:

Maybe your soul might be saying it’s not time yet. The synchronicities will happen, but in reverse. That email may evaporate from the inbox. The laptop freezes just before you click the button.

This happened to me recently.  I’ve been following the fabulous hippie marketer Tad Hargrave  forever and finally decided to sign up for his course. It had a cool 50% off coupon and in the excitement, or maybe fear tingles, I forgot to  use the coupon.

So I emailed the admin and explained the situation and she was right on it, processing the refund immediately. Only when it came it was accidentally refunded for the whole amount. I was no longer a student on that course.

I didn’t go down the rabbit hole of “I’m not good enough”, but did wonder if I wasn’t ready for it yet. It gave me a natural spacious feeling to really examine I wanted it and if it was the right fit.

This is synchronicity is in reverse that pops up to take the pressure off and offer a moment of reflection.  (Meanwhile, I’ve chosen to rejoin the course, this time with the 50%!)

Procrastination

Suddenly the soul knows we aren’t ready, and there’s an urgent need to become a reiki master instead, or like I nearly did- commit to a three year transpersonal counselling diploma because I didn’t feel good enough, to offer psychic readings.

There’s even a name for it; Procrati-coursing.  We suddenly realize we’re not ready, and fill the gap with more training. It’s not bad. Being a Reiki Master is wonderful if that’s the soul calling. But what a shame if it was just not being ready yet? Would there be the same fire to complete the course? I’m not so sure.

Sudden issues from out of the blue

The third way the soul signal’s its not ready is with sudden issues out of the blue.  Suddenly the mother-in-law drops in from nowhere, they get sick, or simply forget to turn up. 

Again, it’s not bad, just a sign. And being psychic means we have our antennas specially attuned for signs. It’s okay, your soul is gently saying, it’s not time. Yet.

You’ll notice there’s a word that pops up here as we’re talking and it’s the word: Yet.

This is all done with the utmost love, this soul guidance. yet our human parts love to second guess. We assume we’re somewhere else on the soul path than where we are and then our guides and helpers step in to lovingly show us something more appropriate. All the universe is doing is making space for that next perfect thing to come.

I would not have been where I am now on my spiritual journey if I had waited till I was ready. In fact, I procrastinated for 10 years of my precious life, and I don’t want you to do that. Don’t be an old lady like me before you really started moving. Feel the fear tingle and click that button anyway. Join that beautiful spiritual retreat. Be part of that development circle.

We turn up because we’re answering a soul call.  The soul is guiding us there. It knows where we’re going. It has the compass and we’re just trotting along for the ride.

Moving through this blog, did you notice your own thrill of fear? Notice how you feel about working with a certain mentor or psychic training course. Notice if things are magically just lining up. Or if they are not. Because that will be the sign that you’re ready. And if you’re ready, I’d love to chat with you.
