I came home after my appointment and waited for my daughter to show up. We had a fun day planned out, as she was treating me to the Seafood and Wine Festival here in town. As we arrived, I noticed I had a message on my phone, and it was from my other daughter in CO... she sent me a video of my other 2 grandkids... Singing me Happy Birthday .... my heart melted as this 5 year old was singing his heart out and his 1 year old sister riding away on the wooden pony, her mom road 30 + years ago. Life was full of surprises and about to get full of even more....
Once inside the festival, we began to taste the wines. We started at one end and worked our way through to the other... This is where it gets good!
We were passing by a table and this young lady asked me if I wanted her to read my cards. She caught my attention, as I do have my cards read by a very close friend of mine, and I was curious if I would get the same kind of answers. So after asking a few questions, I agreed to have her read me. I went behind the table and sat down with her.. Her name was Crystal. She asked me to shuffle the cards then split them into 3 decks. After only a couple shuffles, the cards were like they were blocked...I could not get them mixed up. So I told her that must be a sign that I am done. I made 3 decks then she asked me to make 2 wishes...say one out loud and keep one to myself. My wish out loud to her was: I wish for Piece of Mind. As this was going on, she laid out my cards in 3 different piles and 3 different layouts. From Left to Right, the first pile was Past...Center was Present and Right was Future. So the read begins.
THE PAST: She touched upon my life as a young child, how I did not have a happy life; how I lost important people to me at an early age...also how I struggled with my friendships, how they came and went. Basically that I was not settled. She continued to tell me I was full of strength and how I was able to stand alone.
THE PRESENT: She said she could see I was unhappy. I confirmed. She said I was being abused, but not in a harmful violent way, but in a different way. I confirmed. She said not to worry that my life was going in the right direction, and I was on the correct path. She said the situation I was in now, with either a partner or my husband, was not all bad, but we didn't compliment each other. She also acknowledged that I had kids...asked if it was 3, I told her 4. She nodded, and said they know that I love them and all would be fine but there was one who had some issues to deal with. She asked the age of my youngest, and I looked at Candyce and came up with 26; She said he would be OK and not to worry...the main thing was that they all loved me and to focus and hold that. She also said that they know I was the one who raised them and protected them and put them and their needs first. I confirmed that. She said I need to start thinking about me, and my wants. She informed me that I never put myself first, but now was the time. She said I had a new place I was going to, and it would make me happy. She could see someone in my future who would be making me happy. She told me I was not going to be alone. She also touched on my health and how I had breathing issues, or pain in my heart...she said this too would get better. I confirmed by shaking my head and squeezing Candyce's hand, as she was right on about my collapsed vocal cord, and having my heart checked by pulmonologist. She also was right on about my back and other parts of my body that she said were in pain or in process of healing. She then shocked me with this one...she says..you lost someone very close to you in the last 6 months... I said yes..(my sister in law, Carol) and she says, You did not get to say some words to that person...you did not get to have a final conversation with them.. I said Yes... she informed me that it was ok, the spirit of this person was telling her that it was OK and she approved of what my choices were. It was OK and she understood and was thankful for me. She kept reminding me how strong I was but yet, also how I don't take care of myself and let my own emotions go. She continued to tell me now was the time... I needed to heal.
THE FUTURE: Here, she validated that someone out there loves me and we will find each other and I would not grow old alone. She said it would be true love and to be patient. Again she reiterated that I was on the right path. The choice I had made about my husband was the right choice. He had issues he couldn't talk to me about, but even though now he does, he still can't find the right way to talk about them. She wanted to know if I was worried about him, and I said yes, that I wanted him to be OK... she assured me that he would be fine...the kids all love him and are there for him. He knows it but has not acknowledged it. She also said he will do alright by himself and not to worry at all about it. My daughter was with me and heard all this, and we were holding hands... As she was talking about Dennis, Candyce and I squeezed each others hands as we were validating all that she was saying about her dad. I even think Candyce was a bit amazed and what Crystal was saying.
I felt AMAZING after her / my reading, and then she offered to help me heal myself. I chose for this to happen, so on Wednesday I am headed to meet her after work and get my supplies. I am doing tonight what she asked me to do, by lighting a candle, and wear light colors to bed for the next few nights... She also asked that I not tell anyone about this...to keep it private until Wed. I agreed....therefore, this will seem like a very long 3 days...I am going to take all of this to the highest Spiritual belief and focus on all she told me. How can a complete strange know so much? She just truly Validated Lisa for me...not that I ever doubted Lisa...but we would talk about my problems, so she knew of them. Crystal and I just met!! I too, can do this. She did keep telling me that I had the power, I just needed to let it go. Something Lisa keeps telling me.. One Step At A time!!
