Are we witches?

QUESTION: Masters, yesterday my fiancé’s mom and I had a life-changing experience. I tried to kill myself and my fiancé’s mom channeled me without my knowing. At the same time I was projecting to her without knowledge. She did every action I did to a tee and being experienced with weapons she could figure out how to work the gun. I couldn’t manage the pull back. She thought she was under psychic attack and called my poor fiancé, who was dealing with me at home. When she told him what happened, and her feelings during the event, it was a carbon copy of what I had done. Are my fiancé, his mom, and I practicing witches? How do we control these new-found gifts to use for good and our family’s well-being? ~Dana, North America

ANSWER: First, you are not witches. You are a group of very sensitive individuals who, through your connection and interaction, can “hear” the intense feelings others within the group are experiencing. Not only is your fiancé’s mother able to pick up on the strong emotions you are projecting, but she has them intensified by her son’s experiences as well. This is like a radio broadcast that doesn’t have a lot of power but is receivable by certain precisely tuned equipment. Your fiancé, when he is emotionally involved in a situation, intensifies further any energies that are around.

Your fiancé’s mother has been able to tune in to people before, but never under such intense situations. She thought she was guessing what someone was thinking, or that she had read their body language. Your emotions were so intense that she felt she was doing what she was feeling. This reaction is like a psychic attack, but it’s not really an attack, rather an interception of the energy.

Some people are natural receivers (picking up the thoughts of others) and some are better senders (projecting their thoughts and actions to others). You are a sender and she is a receiver. To make use of these abilities you need to practice. You can increase your reception ability with time. It is a useful way to stay in touch and to reach out to others. Only time will tell what benefits you will derive.
