No Chance Meetings

So one of my favorite books of all time is The Celestine Prophecy: An Adventure. Last weekend, I picked it up and was re-reading it when one of the concepts that always jumps out at me jumped out at me again: The whole concept of synchronicity, and how when you run into someone multiple times either you have a message for them or they have one for you. In other words, it was no mere coincidence that you ran into this person again.

So I was at a dinner and panel discussion earlier this week and 'coincidentally,' I found myself in the elevator with the same woman when I was arriving to the panel discussion and two hours later when I was leaving the panel discussion. With the book still fresh in my mind, I stopped her and asked if she had a business card because I thought it was interesting that we met up again. I gave her mine.

She contacted me not an hour later. It turns out, she's trying to make a career change and isn't sure how to do it. The career she's trying to break into is freelance writing and researching. With me being a freelance writer and editor, I guess there's a lot that we have to talk about.

Summer Intuitive Reading....

One of my favorite summer leisure activities is sitting in the sun with a good mystery book, so in honor of the Fourth of July holiday weekend I thought I’d suggest a few of my fiction favorites in which intuition plays a key role in the storyline or plot.

--Victoria Laurie’s Psychic Eye Series: These books, in which the main character Abby Cooper uses her intuition to help her solve mysteries, are fun, easy reads. The storylines are enough to satisfy any mystery fan. Plus, Laurie provides a lot of insight into the way intuition works. If you’re interested in strengthening your own intuition, these books can serve double-duty.

--Kay Hooper’s Bishop/Special Crimes Unit series: Imagine if the FBI had a unit made up of intuitive special agents who used their intuition to catch serial killers and other criminals. That’s the world Hooper has created, giving suspense fans a realistic dose of the paranormal.

--James Redfield’s The Celestine Prophecy: This is more of an adventure story with an underlying mystery, and it’s one of my favorite books of all time. It marks the story of a man on an adventure in which he learns to live intuitively as he discovers nine insights into the meaning of life. However, the man finds that there are those who would do anything to keep the world from discovering those insights and that’s where the story gets interesting.

Intuitive Action Item: I’ll be periodically adding fiction and non-fiction books that deal with intuition on this site. If you have any favorites you think I should suggest, email me at theintuitivegirl@gmail.com. Happy reading!
