One of the parts of a psychic reading at the institute I was at is what is called a Rose Reading. When doing these types of readings, you use the image of a rose to give you information about the readee. Well, I was about four months into the program and a very kind woman sat down in front of me. I read her rose. It had seven leaves, which indicate how many children a woman may or may not bring into this world. Also, the rose had a huge number of thorns which usually indicates a rocky relationship.

I saw the seven leaves, but thought to myself, “Who has seven kids this day in age?” I doubted myself, so I said four. She kindly corrected me and said, “No, seven.” (Note to self: say what you see. Don’t second guess the image. The image is what comes from the Divine. Whether I understand it or not has no bearing on the authenticity of the image. Lesson learned.)
Then I went to read the why behind all the thorns and the most amazing thing happened. I felt that someone in her family was there with us and standing behind me. I then knew it was her alcoholic father, but that once he left the body, he was free of the affliction and wanted his daughter to know how much he really, really loved her.

All of a sudden, seizing the opportunity, he pushed (I could physically feel it) a dozen red roses through my back up to my heart and I felt all his deep, deep love for her and regret. I started to tear up and shared the image and the feelings and was somehow able to convey his true feelings to her and she was finally able to feel his unconditional love for her.

It was such a healing for her and him as well and I got to witness someone from the other side coming through to right a wrong. It was truly a blessing to be part of that healing process for the both of them.
