Not understanding the significance of being divinely protected…..
At the age of 16, I began to realise that I might be “special” as I had a unique way of understanding others and I was quite analytical. (Thank you, Nel).
It was enjoyable knowing just the basics—Sun Sign Capricorn, Moon Sign Sagittarius, Rising Sign as Taurus, and my Love Sign sitting in Pisces. Being a Capricorn, I embraced it well—I like order and work hard, a little ambitious with a desire for organisation and success in life.
It was in my 30s that I started to appreciate the compliments and praise about having an energy that seemed to resonate with a spiritual essence with others. One of my fondest memories would be when I would be sitting at my place with a fellow girlfriend, and we would spend the night hanging out and breaking out the oracle decks. I have always had an interest in astrology and tarot readings without delving deeply into the studies and intricate details of these spiritual practices. (Thank you, Juani).
I felt a sense of uniqueness within myself, and I found myself not learning the knowledge side of tarot or oracle because I felt embarrassed. I would draw the other person their cards, I had to look up a book as to what the card was or meant all the time when it was my turn to give a reading. The uncanny plot twist, however— I never knew what they were, but my energy did! My energy and intuition held the keys to my responses, and I couldn’t understand how to explain my outcome to their own truths that I laid out for them, yet still unveiling the answers that were very clear to their own selves. I dimmed down on what I didn’t know how to speak of, and I guess stayed as a dabbler.
A great girlfriend of mine in Tasmania had the ramblings of one of my unveilings and was blown away. To this day, we still stay in touch and knowing that back years ago I was there as her friend and the words I had spoken gave her peace, comfort, closure, healing, and gratefulness. This was on a long telephone call and not from a tarot or oracle reading. All just from the energy flow of our conversation (Thank you Tereza).
Stepping Forward into My 40s…
I started noticing weird signs that I had also picked up on in my mid to late 30s—Street Light Phenomena! I would be driving at night on a main road or a side street, and the street light would either go off or it would turn on. Gradually, I came to understand that I was more connected to the energy surrounding me than I had ever imagined. The glow of the moon, especially a full moon, had me inspired and happy (not in the loopy, manic sense as the lunacy tales speak of), and it seemed to deepen my bond with everything around me. I found peace being around nature.
Initially, I was confused by it all. The way I could sense energies and emotions without realising it, felt like tuning into a hidden frequency from people and places, around me, as well as from objects and abstract concepts alike. It was as though I was receiving a transmission of insights but without understanding their significance.
I opted to keep this ability to myself. The mysterious talent remained an enigma to me, leaving me unable to articulate its nature. Thus, I chose silence over explanation. When I attempted to discuss the matter with my Family, Friends or Colleagues, I shared oddly via use of “examples” for my feelings or responses and as I wasn’t always able to fully convey what I was going through at that time, my explanations ended up being lengthy, which either greatly intrigued or bored my audience by the time I reached the point of discussion. This situation has now turned into a joke among us that I fondly refer to as “Sarah Language.”
2024
I started reading about energy, manifestations, affirmations and listening to podcasts and watching social media reels on spirituality, tarot, life path numbers, quantum leaping, timeline jumping, intuition, 5G energy, vibrations and synchronicities.
May 2024 – I had a spiritual awakening! My body was shaking and tingling in the arms and legs! It took a good half an hour to come good out of it and when I had, I felt light as a feather.
June 2024 – The Local Pub with Christine – We are childhood friends and met up for a night out. Needless to say, we ended up entertaining a packed pub out in the sitting area (smokers area, cough cough) for at least four hours with our tarot card, energy card pulling stories and YES if there was a skeptic in the house, I tell you now, there wasn’t at the end.
September 2024 – I had a professional business meeting with a woman who used to work for a high-profile Perth-based Businessman for over 30 years. I was standing at the front door, looking at her and graciously saying goodbye and thanking her for our time together when I caught her smirking back at me. I grinned back at her and asked, “What are you smiling at?” She opened the door, put her hands on my shoulders, and looked me in the eyes, smiling warmly as she said, “If only you knew how spiritually connected and powerful you actually are. You have no idea, do you?” I looked at her, humbled, and said, “Kind of, but haven’t really explored it…” She then said, “You deserve this. If you get stuck while you’ve been ascending, you are welcome here for any guidance…”
September 2024 – I had a visual experience which rattled me a little, but that feeling and questioning myself didn’t last long, all due to the learning and rising with educating myself this year (2024). If I hadn’t, I would have accepted that I had a hallucination or a mental breakdown and thought something was wrong with me. I saw Spirit. This experience alone was mind-blowing and out of this world. It took several weeks before I then sent my childhood friend, Nel, inquiring if she had realised that I had a talent for learning and mastering skills this year in 2024. Nel responded affirmatively with a “Yes.
