Healers, magicians, followers…so much can go wrong. There are spiritual superhumans and TRULY luminous leaders. Some people DO work for the Light, others…others do their work in the shadows and make it look shiny.

I believe that skilled esoteric technicians can pull objects out of thin air, perform psychic surgeries, and walk through walls, bilocate, and cure the supposedly incurable. It’s multidimensional manipulation. In my world, all that is very real.

But…just because someone can create so-called “miracles” doesn’t mean that they have pure intentions. Metaphysical skill does not always guarantee spiritual integrity.

Some well-branded apparent Light workers are just darkness peddlers in disguise. They know how to plug into other people’s energy to get a boost for themselves or to create an effect—maybe a healing effect.

You might get “healed” in one area of your body or life, but then something goes really wrong elsewhere. It’s like super-charging a car battery but draining the oil at the same time—you get an injection of energy but something is not quite right with the overall system.

So, don’t let mad metaphysical-skillz impress you. Again, I’ll say, that pure and gifted healers exist and I’ve been blessed to know some of them.

But Quality is so hard to identify in the energy space. You have to learn to see with both your heart and your intellect. Cultivate Faith while questioning ceaselessly.

It’s more important for you to believe in your powers of discernment than someone else’s healing powers.

And that’s some white hot truth.
