I have a good friend, Brian, (not his real name) that is just going to start treatment for kidney cancer. In the waiting room he was given a list of the doctors who might be available to see him. As Brian looked down the list, his attention instantly came to Dr. Wu. Hmm, he thought, I feel strongly that she would be a good person to treat me. But, since Brain knew the waiting list for these kinds of treatments could be months, he realized that he would take the first doctor available to oversee and manage his treatments.

As he sat patiently waiting, Brian also realized that any doctor would then have to manage a series of other doctors' and specialists' visits: MRIs, cat scans, radiation and possible chemo therapy. So many thoughts swirled through his mind. Still, his still thoughts came back always to Dr. Wu. However, he didn't know why.

Soon a nurse came out into the waiting to tell Brian who would manage his treatments. Sure enough, it was Doctor Wu! Brian was elated, but still he didn't know why.

Within two days Dr. Wu had arranged all four of his medical treatment appointments with the other doctors, and in record time. Brian didn't know how Dr. Wu got in him so fast to see everyone. then he realized that his intense concentration on the doctor he wanted--probably influenced by an intuitive shove from spirit--had pointed him in exactly the right direction.

As I like to say: be careful what you wish for. Thoughts are very powerful energies that help us manifest our goals.

ANCESTRAL LAW AND FEAR-BASED THINKING

Often women ask about their children in the course of their reading.

Clients sometimes forget that within the question they are asking is a spiritual lesson for them as well as their children. That is over and above the actual answer to the question that is being asked. Such was the case with Cynthia (not her real name).

Her son, Eric, had been accepted to a very prestigious Ivy League University, and he was eager to attend. Per the divorce decree, Cynthia was to pay half the tuition, and her ex was to pay the other half.However, Cynthia was laden with guilt over this decision, and she peppered me with questions: she had a little more money than her ex, so should she pay more, should her son Eric pay some share as her ex wanted, would her ex refuse to pay and force Eric to choose a less expensive university? What should she do? My answer was simple: just abide by the divorce decree; half and half.

Cynthia had a hard time accepting this response, still feeling guilty. I couldn't understand why, until I realized that there was something else going on: Cynthia was feeling the ancestral guilt of all the generations of women in her family, raised to do the will of their fathers and then their husbands. I reminded Cynthia that this was the time to take back her power, to be strong. It was time for her to be guilt free about nurturing herself. Energetically it not only would free her, but also the generations of women before her, and it would also open u the door for the generations of women who would come after her. She was called upon to be the link to break free from the generational chain of guilt.

Immediately, I sensed a change in Cynthia's energy, even over the phone. She got it! It was like a breath of fresh air hitting her face. She was free to make the right decision for herself, her son and even for her ex. They all had karmic lessons to learn.
