In the interest of openness and honesty, I have decided to post the entire contents of my reading. I figure that anyone I know who stumbles upon this site would probably consider getting their own reading anyway, so I have nothing to lose.
My questions:
1) I very much want to become an entrepreneur but am not sure when or where to begin. Is this something I should pursue now, or in a few years, or never?
2) My friends are starting to get engaged, but a serious relationship isn't really on my mind (at this time). Should it be, and if so, where should I be "prowling"?
3) Lately, I've been thinking a lot about spiritual beliefs, specifically my Christian background and how it all meshes with... well, everything. But it's not really doing anything for me except causing confusion. I don't have a specific question, but some clarity would be extremely helpful.
Erin's answers:
Question 1: Entrepreneur would be excellent for you. But starting your own business right now wouldn’t be a good idea for you. What they're showing me is that you go to work for a certain kind of company, to learn the ropes, and then eventually you either take over that company, start a competing business, or simply take what you learn from that job and have enough confidence to start your own business. But in other words, go learn from the school of life first, and you'll know when the right time is to start your own business. If you tried to start one now, it would set you back too much because it would fail. Nothing wrong with failure, but the timing on that failure would be really bad.
Question 2: They're saying you're too young to be getting married, but date if you want to. Just don't get yourself into trouble, young man (their words not mine!). Explore relationships but don't get committed to any particular one. They've got big plans for you and your future wife. Get yourself into a corporate environment and make sure the woman you find is mature and responsible and career-oriented.
Question 3: Your guides want you to know that there are aspects of your Christian beliefs that serve you very well. They want to warn you not to throw the baby out with the bath water. But they want to encourage you to explore and even try out other belief systems. They don’t want you to be too attached to any one religion, they want you to hone your spiritual beliefs and leave the religious aspect behind.
One guide is standing out from the collective energy. She's female, presenting as a blond with golden wavy hair. Ah, I believe she is one of your angels. Sometimes I pick up on spirit guides, but this is definitely an angel. She's smiling and saying, "He's a sweet kid, but it's time to kick him out of the nest. He's got to find his wings and get flying on his own." She has a somewhat maternal nature to her. I think she is going to help you find your "wings" so to speak. I'm not picking up on her name but she is sort of giving me this sign like, "Don’t worry. I've got him. And I won't let anything happen to him." And she thinks you're funny.
The weird thing here is that Erin really didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know (except for that last part, but I'll get to that in a minute) - but by no means did that make the reading worthless. Her answers gave me just the boost of confidence I needed at that time, and situations in my life are actually starting to confirm some of what my guides have been trying to tell me all along. (Example: I'm taking an Entrepreneurship class, and one assignment was to present an idea to the rest of the class; the class would vote on the top ideas, and those ideas are what we plan businesses for. Well, going into the presentation, I thought my idea was spectacular, as did one of my friends, and I delivered the presentation well... but it wasn't even voted as one of the top ten ideas. Coincidence?)
That last paragraph, though, really got me. Erin, what might be some of the differences (if any) to being guided by an angel as opposed to a spirit? I got a lot of comfort from learning that there's an angel out there somewhere looking out for me, even if my Christian background had told me that all along. So, Erin, to you I say THANKS! I'm still looking for those wings, though...
