“Mid-last year I embarked on a career change and commenced studying herbal medicine. I was told by a another clairvoyant that this would be a good path for me, and that in fact I had abilities as a medical intuitive (which I thought at the time was quite bizarre because i had coincedently read alot regarding this field, but ive never been able to develop clairvoyance). Anyway, I have just finished my herbalism studies at the certificate level, and im finding that i have lost motivation to continue with studies in herbalism/western medicine, and im not sure if i should continue with studying the full diploma. Do you see me continuing down this path? ”

Tina the cards coming up for you are the 3 of Pentacles, the 5 of Swords and the 7 of Wands.

 The 3 of Pents in the past position shows that the course was certainly the right thing for you to do then and it will still serve you well in the future.  The 5 of Swords shows that perhaps the study is taking more from you than you are willing to give at the moment, probably on an emotional level as well as a financial one. 

The 7 of Wands in the future suggests to me that you will probably continue your study, but in a different direction.  I feel the way you have been doing things probably needs to change a bit to make things easier on you.  Take a break, do a more interesting subject - you don’t have to do it all at once.  If you’re bored or disinterested, don’t force yourself.  it may be your inner self telling you that it isn’t the right time to continue - education is a journey that you share with the other students as well as the teachers, so perhaps you need to wait for that combination to be right.  Do something that seems fun and exciting.  Life’s too short to ‘make’ yourself do things you’re not passionate about.

I actually agree with the clairvoyant who said you have medical intuitive abilities.  Clairvoyance is probably nothing like you think it is.  It sneaks up on you when you’re not really expecting it and you can’t make it ‘develop’.  You either have it to some degree or you don’t. That doesn’t mean a person won’t have intuition or sixth sense or gut feelings - we all have these.   

I also feel that energy or vibrational medicine, like bush flowers or bach flowers, could be something for you to look at.  There is something about them that helps to wake up your right side of the brain - the right side is the creative, intuitive side.

The other thing that’s coming up is that one of the reasons you aren’t connecting with your clairvoyance is that you aren’t ‘protecting’ yourself.  That doesn’t mean you need to protect yourself from evil spirits, just that you are sensitive and need to protect yourself from being overly affected by other people’s thoughts, feelings and emotions.  We all drag this stuff around and it can impact the sensitive people around us.

Simple meditation, walking, chanting, using bush flower remedies like Fringed Violet and Angelsword, salt baths and white lighting yourself are all effective, as long as you do it regularly.

Working on clearing and balancing the chakras is also useful - it’s a big part of my early training.  I’m not a big doreen virtue fan but she has a good chakra clearning meditation cd.  Maybe have a listen.

If you are going to work in a healing or helping capacity, good boundaries and the ability to protect yourself is essential.  I did a great counselling course through the Institute of Counselling some years ago.

And lastly, the path from A to B isn’t always a straight line.  Let your instincts guide you with what to do next.  It’s not always going to be a logical, straight-forward path.
