The power of a negative prediction

Many people have told me that they are nervous about receiving psychic information because they are afraid that the message will be negative or predict something "bad" happening in the future. I have always understood that sentiment, which is why I frame everything in a way that empowers the person, rather than makes the person feel helpless regarding potential unpleasant events in the future.

Recently I did a reading for myself, and guess what, I saw an unpleasant immediate future for myself. I saw myself being curled up, depressed and tired and confused, for several months. But the thing is that I also saw the end to that period of discomfort. I saw myself coming out of it and feeling serene, relaxed and confident.

Like many others, I thought it would be hard to swallow to receive the information that something unpleasant was imminent. But it wasn't. Somehow, knowing what I'm about to go through, makes it easier to bear. I strongly feel that I will be able to endure it more easily this way than if it had come as a surprise. Maybe it's because I already know that I will come out okay at the other end. But isn't that how it always is? Somehow, no matter what the crisis is, things are always okay at the other end. Maybe my vision cemented that knowledge for me, and I am no longer afraid of a crisis. Either way, this experience has made me feel different--more positive--about receiving "bad" news.

Hi Vera,
I am so glad you are posting again!

I just read a really great book called "welcome to your crisis" by Laura Day where she talks about what you are mentioning here.

Most of the times when we are depressed or in a bad way, we are in the best stage to learn and grow.

I am really connecting to this topic right now since I am in crisis over my job and my future. Do I stay in Seattle or try something new in Portland.

Only time and the universe will be able to tell me.
