What if I don’t want to know?

Wonderful post Erin. I felt apprehensive before my reading with Alex Wu about a month ago for the same reasons.

I was really nervous that Alex would tell me I had to lead a boring life and avoid doing all the things I wanted to do. I was wrong... Turns out the guides knew what they were upto and I took away a new perspective of having options and possibility. Alex was so genuine and kind as well.

Hmmm who would have known but the guides are pretty smart!!!

It's hard sometimes during a reading when my client asks a question and I don't get the answer from the guides that my client wants to hear. But, that's why they've come to me for a reading, so while I do my best to present it so that it's empowering, some people leave disappointed.

In the bigger picture though, the guides are right - but it can take time, days, months or even years before we realize it.

It was really cool reading for you butterflyeffect, your guides definitely have your back

I like to know I'm a total cheater so knowing in advance means i am prepared. I've had some incredibly precise predictions and i find it easier to deal with things when i had a warning. Sometimes it can be surprising though, i know there's something coming up in the future that is not something that we ever consciously planned, i discussed it with my husband so he is slightly prepared too...i just ask my guides to have time before that happens as i have other priorities right now, but I'm totally okay with it.

I also had twice the prediction of an older man getting sick in our family (and I'm pretty sure to know who that will be!!!) but one of the psychics said that in the end, it was just a big scare. So it's also good to know that even if the person freaks out, I have been warned that it'll be okay.

Does anybody else see it that way? That knowing in advance is kind of a good thing?

As I see it, knowing things in advance is like hearing a "spoiler" for a book. Sure you may hear that the main character dies at the end, but you still have to read the book to know how it happens. The event doesn't really have much meaning until you discover it for yourself. Knowing ahead of time may also make the event easier to accept.


But because we're all human and naturally afraid of the unknown, I too have reservations about getting a reading for many of the same reasons butterflyeffect mentioned. I'm scared I'm doomed to a boring life.

Mine were pretty exciting actually. Some were more oriented about concrete facts of life, others more about my soul's history and purpose.

Why would you be doomed to a boring life? Give a reading a try, you might get a kick out of it .
