| order of the experience of many on the journey and | | | | This stage may sound as though it is a great place to |
| there does seem to be a systematic approach to | | | | be. In actual fact it isn't. You can't help anyone, only |
| the development process. Some people will go | | | | yourself, you can offer people a 'leg-up' not a 'hold |
| through all of them, others one or two. Overall | | | | up'. If you try and drag a person along to a place |
| however, you will develop at a pace that is exactly | | | | within where they really do not want to be but you |
| right for you. | | | | think it is best for them, stop it - leave them alone!! |
| Many of the stages are associated with the fusing of | | | | Focus on the 'self', your 'self'. People are fine as they |
| the emotional, energy body and the spiritual body, | | | | are, you only have the right to change yourself - |
| which is a vital underlying part of the development | | | | leave them alone! |
| process. | | | | Those in your life however, may go along with it for |
| 1. Life Crisis | | | | a while to be polite. Just because you have started |
| This stage does not necessarily have to happen to | | | | to find this new found knowledge you think the |
| everyone on the psychic path if they take notice of | | | | world should know, you will if you're not careful, get |
| the pebbles at an early stage. However, the move | | | | the 'nut case' status within your family or circle of |
| towards wishing to develop on a psychic level is | | | | friends. You have no right to ram things down the |
| often preceded by a life drama. This can be anything | | | | throat of others. If they are interested they will ask. |
| from a confused childhood to a recent divorce. | | | | If you do ram knowledge down people's necks |
| 2. Heightened Awareness | | | | (there will be the temptation) be prepared because |
| This is when you start to see things out of the | | | | at some stage you will get your theories shot down |
| corner of your eye. This can also start with seeing | | | | by the 'life is only what you can see' sceptic. If / |
| 'blobs' of colour or swirling energies. For others it will | | | | when you get to this stage, arguing will only be a |
| be the beginning of hearing messages in your mind, | | | | waste of your energy. Accept and observe their |
| vivid dreams, premonitions, and thinking you are | | | | views as they are, they're entitled to them. You |
| either going mad or the mind is playing tricks. Often | | | | wouldn't like your opinion shot down so it's unfair to |
| people ignore the pebbles here, and dismiss what | | | | shoot at or back at theirs. |
| their heightened senses are trying to tell them. | | | | Usually at this stage the developing psychic with |
| 3. Hyper Sensitivity | | | | regard to this subject will not be hugely confident |
| Becoming more sensitive to criticism and other | | | | within himself or herself. You will know when you are, |
| people's views. At this stage you begin to know that | | | | because you will not have a need to tell others how |
| you have the ability to feel other people's feelings. | | | | to be, and they will begin to have a deep respect for |
| Confusion and a sense of, 'am I normal' prevails at | | | | your interest in psychic development. It's almost ironic |
| this stage. | | | | in that respect. |
| 4. Searching | | | | This stage is a test of how true to yourself you are. |
| The search for material that explains the strange | | | | Few people like to be 'preached' to on how they |
| experiences begins. This is often done quietly through | | | | should live their life, so remember LEAVE THEM |
| fear of ridicule. Also a strong desire to find | | | | ALONE, no matter how much you can see they are |
| 'like-minded' individuals begins. It is at this stage you | | | | heading along the wrong path. Offer advice ONLY if |
| start to really question your sanity! This is the point | | | | they ask! Avoid the, 'told you so' when they've made |
| of no return. From this stage forward you will spend | | | | their mistake. Eventually they will ask you first for |
| your life searching for answers to life's questions. | | | | your psychic advice before they act (keep it |
| There may be rests in between but you will always | | | | impartial) when they have seen a few times, your |
| be curious. It becomes like an itch you can't scratch. | | | | predictions have been accurate. In the mean time, |

| Beware! The meek will suddenly start standing up for | | | | 14. Know all |

| wheels will have been set in motion. | | | | nothing more to learn. The belief starts to set in that |
| 6. Feeling alone / misunderstood | | | | they have experienced enough to move on and go it |
| At this stage the developing psychic has usually | | | | alone, away from their peers. |
| found material to partially explain their interest and | | | | Some people lose friends in this stage and become |
| people of a like-minded nature. Unfortunately at this | | | | seen as unapproachable, even if on hindsight they are |
| stage, those often closest to the person will want to | | | | seen to be all knowing. As this stage becomes more |
| destroy their partner's / friend's new interest | | | | developed, the psychic gets to the stage of 'the |
| because they feel (but will not admit it) threatened | | | | more you know the less you need to say', eventually |
| by the new 'hobby'. The psychic will often be taken | | | | gaining great respect for their abilities as the need to |

| We have all at some point in our life feared change. | | | | 16. Breakthrough |
| The trick in overcoming the fear of change is to take | | | | After the clearing process (which can take a while) |
| a moment to fast forward life to how it will be if we | | | | the psychic becomes exceptionally perceptive. They |
| remain the same. Life cannot change unless we | | | | can 'see' what is going on within / for someone at a |
| change, merely hoping it will change leads to | | | | hundred paces. This is because anything that was in |
| disappointment. In your mind, fast forward your life | | | | the way of opening up to a true state of being, has |

| Often people will wait until they are made redundant | | | | most. It is at this point, many hit the 'high stakes,' |

| 'made for you' in life and 'what you have done to | | | | responsibility of the true psychic to do their best to |
| please another'. It is about breaking free of the | | | | never exert power over others. To be able to do |
| career you chose because it pleased your parents, | | | | this, you have to lose the attachment to what |
