“It’s frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.”
― Jill Shalvis, The Sweetest Thing
Today I’d like to introduce you all to Dorothy Holder today. Dorothy is an Aura, Clairvoyance and Tarot Reader from New Zealand. It’s still a hot issue for many, but something I deeply believe in. Many, many years back I went to visit a tarot reader in Germany when I needed guidance at a very important time in my life. Initially I was taken aback by what I was told, but soon learnt to decipher the details and I was grateful for the information I was given. Then a few years back I took up a “freebie” one sentence question – another problem in my life, and I’m pretty sure it was Dorothy I asked. I treasured her answer!
With the internet growing bigger and bigger, I’ve crossed path with Dorothy via many social networks. So a few weeks ago, I asked her whether she’d like to be my guest today, and she said yes! I’m thrilled to have her here.
This has been her journey. Please do take you time to check out her website!
My first experiences were such that I didn’t realize for many years that they were experiences. It may sound odd, but I believe many have incidents in their life that are unexplainable. At 13 when dropping off to sleep I would suddenly find myself fearing I was going to hit the ceiling, I would shift into a side or stomach position to fall asleep. It wouldn’t be right to say this scared me, my fear at the time was bumping into the ceiling, it was a sudden fright that would instantly bring my consciousness to lying on the bed and trying to sleep. This happened so many times, that I wondered what was going on, but never mentioned it to anyone, who wants to be thought of as a weirdo, I was a strange enough child as it was, typically Taurean some would say, keeping to myself, enjoying sports but not overly friendly.
Now we fast forward 20 years and the birth of my second son. When he was born I began to really look at the life I was living, and it didn’t look good. Sitting quietly one night, I heard a voice, a man’s voice, a truly beautiful voice. It was bizarre, it was not in my head, but behind and up a little, from the minute I heard it I wanted to hear it again and somehow knew I had to change me to do that. It would take me two years but I took things in hand, getting rid of the booze, cigarettes and other mind numbing habits, giving me a crystal clear view of my past and my present. It wasn’t a pretty sight, but now I was greedy and needy for anything spiritual wallowing in psychic fairs and doing any courses going. I was in a whirlwind of change that carried me through to mediumship training, tarot, and energy work, starti
ng with the mastery of Seichim then Reiki and continuing through a number of energy healing modalities.
Guides and Angels were daily events and visions became the norm. Through it all I was dissatisfied with the level of teaching, with few able to answer my questions sensibly or in any way help me with what was an intense period of phenomenal experiences, and so began my own path, carving a way through cellular and physical sciences, then training in hypnotherapy as my attention shifted to the mind. By now I could see auras, and was experiencing one on one communications with guides and individuals living in other parts of the world. There was no internet to speak of and certainly no social media, the main drive of these communications was to clarity many of my earlier experiences such as past lives, future predictions, cause and effect. I wasn’t driven by a desire to help others, I wasn’t driven by a desire to be of service to god, I was motivated by knowledge, learning and sharing not what I learned, but what I understood about what I learned.

I KNOW there is so much beyond the what is on the surface and so much more within and around us. I have had too many “psychic”,”Spiritual” and “supernatural” experiences not to know.I also firmly believe that we all have abilities, but at varying levels, rather like any other of our senses. It is a shame that people no longer pay attention to their spiritual nature, for the most part.They repress that part of their nature, they live in denial.They have let themselves be taught that it is unreal.It is lost within most religions, which, if you go back ,(and often, not all that far), you will find many true spiritual elements as natural and accepted.
Where did it all go wrong? Why do people equate ‘sophistication’ with cutting themselves off from their natural world? Why have the major religions no longer provide information and belief in the spiritual nature of man? Pride, I suppose. People are losing out on so much, and it isn’t necessary; it is a recent development of which most people are unaware. The spiritual nature of people was accepted and taught within the major religions, (yes, I am a Catholic, and yes, I mean within the Church), since the beginning of organized religion …and of course, before. It is a crime.
That having been said,I am concerned at times for WHERE certain people are receiving their spiritual input. To deny that there are bad influences out there is the same denial that the rest of the world is experiencing.
Stay vigilant, Dorothy, as I am sure you have been.Nice to meet you, truly.
Iris, when I told Janette we needed to shake things up and reach out for the new, we didn’t know you had this ace up your sleeve.

I aim to please, Tonette 😉
Glad you enjoyed today’s post. And as I said, I very much believe in what Dorothy does, but I wasn’t really sure how the post would be perceived.

thanks for the warning although i know i have nothing to be concerned about especially in light of the reality that as you say, everyone is very capable of utilizing subtle energy information at any time to me it makes it more of a natural phenomenon than a supernatural one xx

Enjoyed reading of your experiences, Dorothy. I’ve always been fascinated by a wide array of topics which are, unfortunately, often lumped together as the “unexplained”. I’ve read widely on many of these varied topics and (usually) am not satisfied by the “official” explanations.
Furthermore, most often if I attempt any sort of serious conversation on any of that array of topics, I start getting the strange looks or people make light of it.
Very counter-productive, to say the least.

I agree, Jeff … it still has some negative stigma to it. Glad you enjoyed the post!

Thanks Jeff, I am fortunate enough to live where there is a wide acceptance these days, and prefer not to think of myself as a nutter. I like the idea that the sciences can explain my ability to see aura, and hypnotherapy training has helped me understand how the mind works. so all in all I seek to have a well rounded approach to those things slightly out of reach of explanation. xx

Well, Jeff, looks like we are all people who are of opened minds,or actually, the only way a mind should be, given we are given enough within us and experiences around us to be unable to deny there is so much more in and around us.I am pleased to see that we are of like minds.

I enjoyed your article today, Dorothy. Thanks for inviting her here, Iris! I, too, know there is more to existence than meets the eye. Aside from what I have experienced in my lifetime, I have also visited some psychics, more or less to see what they had to say. (My faith is strong in a God I KNOW) I found it very interesting when two of them told me the same thing at different times and on separate occasions!
