Today I am interviewing Amy Cerny
Vasterling, the Intuitive Pathfinder (Intuitive Reader). It is through Amy that I have gathered some of the
information in my soon-to-be-published book, "My Spirit, My Journey-A
Beginners Guide: How To Discover, Decide, And Delight In Your Spiritual
Journey".
How do you define intuition?
I define intuition as our ability to sense via
discernment or inner knowing. A way I often define how to work with it for my
clients is it’s about seeing a pattern or connection in everything. If
everything is connected, therefore there is nothing, which cannot be
connected.
Does everyone have intuition, or just certain people?
I believe we all have it and I believe some of
us have it stronger than others but it is a skill to be honed, not a
gift.
"At that moment my son stuck a key in the
socket and fell to the floor."
What are some indicators to know you are receiving
intuitive information?
I feel intuition comes in two forms in my
life, however, I think they are the same thing. This example comes in the form
of a story. My daughter and I were in the kitchen preparing dinner when we both
put down our cooking utensils and walked out to the living room without
speaking or knowing why. At that moment my son stuck a key in the socket and
fell to the floor. Both of us "knew" something was wrong. I believe
we pick this up from the electromagnetic field of our heart. We sensed what was
happening in the quantum field (the energy between the atoms)
and it draws us in surpassing judgment.
I also know because I am amply able to do it
that we are able to see, smell, taste (ick), feel and sense energy and read it.
This is psychic ability but a true intuitive passes it through their
discernment before they dish it up. Many people today align to calling
themselves "Intuitive" and I would challenge each of them for a
definition. This is going to help you align with the best match in a good
reader/intuitive for your specific needs.
"This is psychic ability but a true intuitive passes it through

Please tell us about some of the work you do as an intuitive.
This career has offered me a
grand platform on which to expand. I've been a keynote speaker on the topic of
aligning with your true self, spoken on a panel as the expert on "Reading
Energy" and traveled around the US speaking about
intuition and how to work with your own. I also teach on the topics of
transforming grief, empowering kids through parenting and grandparenting,
intuition and self-empowerment workshops. I coach, counsel and read for
individuals as I can quickly see their core issues and give them tools so they
can find the solutions. Lastly, I am currently working on a forthcoming project
of podcasting on a whole host of topics. Some including but are not limited to;
understanding what the angel, guide, saint, etc realms are and how they work.
This will launch January 2016. Watch my website for more information.
I also am a fine artist and am working on a
large body of work including 1,000 images. I draw with India ink on canvas
using scientific eyedroppers and work with oil paint, sometimes using
both! To learn more about this work visit my website at www.amycernyvasterling.com
"Have fun! My motto is 'Come and open
yourself to a world, which in truth is all yours!'"
Can you give some suggestions for someone wanting to develop
and work with their intuition?
Yes! My top suggestions are:
1) Ask a question! Before you go to sleep in
those few moments when you are relaxed see if you can see, hear, sense,
feel or smell something. If yes, ask about what it is and why it's showing up.
If nothing, try again tomorrow night
and so on.
(Please note, I've been reading for years and
it is subtle information that comes up for me, I can't see "it all"
and I am no better at it than you. The difference is I committed to looking
because I am a super curious person! I kept asking questions to the universe
and they'd show up in a conversation or article in a magazine or another way
for myself and I’d see them directly for others. I've read for hundreds of
people and this experience has taught me the most. I say to my clients,
"In 10 years the reader I'll be." Meaning we all start somewhere and
10 years ago I was in a totally different place so start somewhere, anywhere!)
2) Be CURIOUS! All energy is good energy. If
you are afraid of evil, you probably are not to be entering this arena! Why?
Because you are setting yourself up to fail based on what others say in place
of what you have experienced. If you are going to jump into reading based on
the ideas of others, stop. How YOU read energy likens to whom you are and how
you operate not how others operate. The best thing to do is learn on your own
without influence. Now, I know this is not for everybody but I see a lot of
drama around reading. I've seen a lot of things and I can tell you this, I've
met energies that were ready to take me down but instead of getting scared, I
allowed, trusted and asked them what they need. What I found was the energy was
simply misplaced, displaced or misunderstood. Just like humans! If we are in
any of those attributes we will be horrible as an earthling! (Hitler is a prime
example, he was misunderstood and this is what made him become so controlling,
angry and destructive.) So I meet the energy to see if I can help. Most times I
figured it out. Except when there are tricksters I call their bluff, roll my
eyes and tell them to go away and they do.
3) Have fun! My motto is "Come and open
yourself to a world, which in truth is all yours!"
4) Ask to read for people, start your process
and trust yourself. After you read for them, say to yourself, within 1 year
they'll come back to me and let me know how the reading served them. It helps
to have validation.
5) I've spoken to dogs, moved ghosts to the
other side, gotten confessions from them and from murders still living. I've
found there is nothing, which has come up that I couldn't do. I am able to read
as a medium but I do not do it unless it is a murder, suicide or accidental
death because my belief system does not align with me connecting you to your
loved ones and Its not my sweet spot. Be true to you! Do what feels super easy,
interesting and fun! This is what will make you unique. Then once you gain
confidence, try other things. I am serious when I say a man approached me and
said, "Can you talk to dogs." I said "No" Then I started
spouting out what the dog wanted to tell him. He confirmed with me right there
what I was saying was accurate. I gave him tools he could not see. I could talk
to animals and I never knew it. Open up, you never know what skill you have in
your back pocket.
6) Being highly psychic or intuitive does not
make you special. I live a normal human life within my amazing family. I am
married, have kids and am by most accounts a normal human being. Everything
I've learned is self-taught. Public speaking, self-taught. Reading , self-taught.
Creating classes & teaching, self-taught. You get the picture. I teach
intuition so you learn it from you.
Thank
you so much, Amy, for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!
