Dowsing is a powerful tool for seeking clarity and insight, but the way you phrase your questions can greatly impact the answers you receive. When preparing for a session with me, it's important to understand the principles that guide this process—especially the law of free will, the fluidity of the future, and the value of self-discovery.
The Law of Free Will & Why It Matters
Free will is a fundamental principle of existence. It means that each person has the ability to make choices, which in turn shape their experiences and outcomes. Because of this, questions that seek to control or interfere with another person’s choices (such as "Will [person] choose to be with me?") may not yield meaningful answers. Instead, we can explore the likelihood of certain outcomes based on current energies and choices.
The Future Isn't Set in Stone
The future is not a fixed destination, but rather a web of possibilities that shift with every decision made. Dowsing can reveal likely outcomes based on present circumstances, but it does not predict the future with absolute certainty.
For example, instead of asking:
❌ "Will I get the job?" (This assumes a fixed future outcome.)
Try asking:
✅ "Based on my current trajectory, am I likely to be offered this job?" (This acknowledges that your actions and decisions still play a role.)
Understanding Intention vs. Action
One of the most profound insights that dowsing can reveal is the difference between intention and action. Someone may have good intentions deep down—perhaps they care for you, feel remorse, or want to change—but that does not necessarily mean they will act on those feelings.
For example, in one of my early sessions, a client asked about their romantic partner who, at their core, likely had good intentions. However, their current actions and choices did not reflect those good intentions. In cases like these, dowsing can help bring clarity by separating what someone feels deep down from what they are actually willing to do in reality.
When asking about relationships, it can be helpful to frame questions like:
✅ "Does this person have positive intentions toward me?"
✅ "Based on their current mindset, are they likely to act in alignment with those intentions?"
✅ "What factors are influencing their ability to follow through on their feelings?"
Understanding this distinction can help you make empowered decisions without waiting on potential that may never be acted upon.
The Value of Self-Discovery
Expanding your dowsing session to explore past lives and connect with spirit guides can significantly enhance your journey of self-discovery. Understanding influences from previous incarnations and receiving guidance from spiritual entities can provide profound insights into your current life path.
One of the most valuable uses of a dowsing session is to gain insight into yourself and your current circumstances. Self-awareness allows you to make informed decisions and shape your future in alignment with your highest good. Consider asking questions that help you understand underlying patterns, motivations, or lessons within your experiences.
For example:
✅ "Is there a significant lesson I am meant to learn from this situation?"
✅ "Am I currently in alignment with my highest path?"
✅ "Is a specific energy or belief blocking me from achieving my goal?"
Exploring Past Lives and Spirit Guides
Delving into past life influences and seeking guidance from spirit guides can offer deeper clarity and direction. These explorations can uncover connections between past experiences and present challenges, as well as provide support from spiritual entities attuned to your journey.
Consider incorporating questions such as:
"Is my current challenge related to a past life experience?"
"Have I shared a past life with [specific person]?"
"Is one of my spirit guides attempting to communicate with me?"
"Do I have more than one spirit guide?"
By framing your questions in this manner, you open pathways to profound insights and guidance, enriching your self-discovery process.
How to Frame Effective Questions
To get the most out of your session, try phrasing your questions in ways that explore probabilities, influences, and guidance rather than absolutes. Here are some examples:
❌ "Will I be successful?" → ✅ "Are my actions likely to increase my chances of success?"
❌ "Is my partner cheating?" → ✅ "Are there signs of dishonesty in my relationship that I should be aware of?"
❌ "Will I move this year?" → ✅ "Based on my current path, is a move within the next year likely?"
Optimizing Your Session: How Many Questions Should You Ask?
For a 30-minute session, about 75 questions is the ideal number. This allows us to cover a broad range of topics while leaving room for deeper exploration if we get started down a certain path. If something significant comes up, I will delve further into it during our session.
Send Your Questions in Advance for the Best Experience
To ensure you get the most out of your session, you can email me your questions ahead of time. I will review them and use my experience to refine or add additional questions that might be beneficial to you. This helps create a session that is as insightful and valuable as possible.
Final Thoughts
Approaching your session with an open mind and well-phrased questions will lead to deeper insights and more empowering answers. Remember, dowsing is a tool for guidance, not control—your choices and free will ultimately shape your path.
