How to Ask the Right Questions in a Reading
When we are consulting intuitively, or with cards or another divination tool, the question plays a huge part in determining the info that comes through. Whether we’re getting a reading from someone else, or we’re learning to do readings for others, the questions we ask are critical!
Here are the types of questions that don’t help:
- Vague
- Too open-ended
- Q’s that are like “should I do this” or “should I do that”
And here are the types of questions that are better:
- Laser-specific
- Clear and concise
- Q’s that are like “Will I be happy, safe, etc. if I do XYZ” or “Is it in my best interest to…”
Questions that are vague get results and answers that are vague.
The Caveat
Of course, there’s a flip side to all of this. With the questions that are so laser-specific, we’re taking a risk and assuming the conditions we are asking about are going to remain the same. We are only able to see things from a limited perspective, the scope of life as we know it here and now.
The thing is, things can change. The seemingly impossible can become possible – and quickly, at that. By only asking within the framework of what we know, we are also limiting our understanding of the possibilities as far as answers/outcomes are concerned.
From No Job to the Perfect Job
Here’s a classic example of that. A long time ago, while I was learning to do readings, I was unemployed. I didn’t want another marketing job, and I simply didn’t know how to get work doing readings. I asked an intuitive about it, and she told me to try and find legit work doing readings. She said doors would open, and something good was going to happen. At the time I had NO IDEA what she was talking about. There wasn’t a single place around where I could work doing readings. But sure enough, a place actually just opened up a month or so later, and they hired me to do professional readings and teach classes there!
It was amazing how that happened. At the time I was asking, I simply could not see it. Now I understand.
Just hold that concept in your mind while you are getting a reading, while you’re doing one for someone else, or asking for yourself. Be clear, but be open to the unexpected, and do not be afraid of it! The universe, and God, truly does work in mysterious ways.
I know from experience the more you ask and work with your intuition, the more the aperture opens and you understand about the ebbs and flows and cycles of your own path in life. It’s pretty incredible. And it helps to guide you in so many ways.
Thanks so much for reading and watching!
