Today is the conclusion of a 3-day fast. I fasted from food, from electronics and that included all social media, texting, and TV. Why did I choose to do this? I was asked to.
My guide stepped up and loudly said to me (in my head) you’ve forgotten how important you are to me, you’ve forgotten how special you you are. Why are you not taking care of yourself? Why are your vibrations so low that I must shout for you to hear me? I want you to cease all of this activity and read the books I tell you to. I will let you take care of paid clients, but no one else gets cards until I decide.
That’s a lot to take in isn’t it? I was stunned. Shaking, I picked up my pendulum and asked 3 days? I heard and saw yes, Erica. I thought in my head to myself...this is a test. Can you follow directions? I know you can but will you choose to do so?
It’s not been as hard as you might think. I have read the book by Carolyn Myss about my chakra problem, which reinforced that I truly am not taking care of myself. I learned some things I am good at, but sadly, my solar plexus needs work. For real...I’m weak there physically as well as within that chakra. I spent one of my days formulating a plan for how to begin to repair this, including a very structured self care routine and meditation that focuses on the first 3 chakra. Message me and I can send you the links.
After I spent time there, I went back to an online class a friend of mine had sent to me. It was about being able to open up to hear your guide, and later classes move on to more channeling. I decided to try this class again because this time I was ready, and I had nothing else to do.
I watched the class, and asked my guide to give me a mental image of what our relationship will bring me. It’s an exercise she does at the end of the first class. He sent me an Elm Tree. A gorgeous tree. I looked up what this means in dream language and it means journey and intuition—an interesting choice since if you know me, you know I love trees.
The rest of the day I spent outside watching birds. It was a beautiful day, the kind where clouds race in small fluffy clumps across the sky, and the trees whisper in the breeze. I was thinking about how on day 2, I’m not hungry, but in fact have tons of energy and an eagerness to connect in meditation to my guide. At that moment dragonflies arrived. Several of them flew by, one pausing in front of me and then taking off. Hello Brandon, thank you for encouraging me!
Day 3, I still can’t text or message anyone. I’m still not eating. I’m still on my spiritual journey of book reading and meditation. I’m trying to focus on what I need to do now to take care of me. I decided a treadmill run followed by a walk with Bria would work. In addition to making sure I took care to brush the tangles out of my hair and jump in the shower...the little things you need to do every day to take care of yourself. I had been slipping. I see that now.
I decided to try using meditations out of a book recommended in the class I took. I’ll put that title below. I think if I had read it at any other time in my life it might not make sense. Today though, it was like I was hungry for the words and the insight it would give me. I had a breakthrough. I had clarity, I had joy, I made the connection.
Everyone is different in how they visit with their guides. All guides do not speak in the same way. Some guides speak only in light and symbols, and you are able to translate based on your connection. Some guides sound exactly like the voice in your head. That’s the crazy part. That’s what happened to me.
I followed the instructions as given with a little Erica twist on it. When I asked my guide to touch my aura, it felt like chills running all over my body, and my hands got very warm. It went away when I asked him to take a step back. I tried asking a question, and I got an answer. At first I thought I was making this all up because it’s my own voice talking to me. I began to realize he’s talking to me this way so that I can understand him—he’s using my memories, my mental pictures, my words and my voice because it’s what I know!! I asked if I could verify with my pendulum (he calls it crutch) and I received yes but last time we do this ok? I verified one answer, satisfied, the pendulum is put down.
My question? Are cards still my gift, will I have it back after this? He laughed and said that’s two questions. He answered yes and yes both in my voice in my head (with a chill) and moving the pendulum.
I have to say this experience has been a tremendous one, and I know if I ever need to be refocused I will be asked to do it again. I’ve taken steps to put limits on my phone now. The settings that tell you how much you’ve been on your phone also have an ability to limit the amount of time per day per app or group of apps. It can also shut you out for bedtime. I’m also going to seriously limit how much and which kind of shows on tv I allow back into my life. I feel like all of this was a kind of pollution. It definitely prevented me for doing what I needed to do on my journey.
Before all of this I had a card reading from Meagen B. which gave me insight just prior to all of this and I can say that it was very accurate. Card readers aren’t all that terrific at reading for themselves so having her offer to do one was a treat. She’s a very talented card reader that has a focus in readings that are divinely inspired. I was so grateful for the message because I knew it was full of the light I needed to power me all the way through.
I am excited to share this part of my journey with you. I hope it has inspired you to consider taking a break for a few days to detox from our busy world. You don’t have to go to the extremes I went to—you’ll get results merely by focusing your intention on creating positive change. It really does work like that. Think about what direction you want your life to go, and pull away all the things that don’t go that direction. What you are left with should be only positive things ready to help you launch. It’s worth letting go, even if only for 3 days, so you can see how much of an anchor—stopping progress—that stuff has become.
Thank you for your continued support! I’ll bring cards back to this blog next time. Today, I felt the need to share because I know at least one of you reading this could use this to inspire you. What are you waiting for? This is your invitation!!
