Beginning Psychics Orientation   By Lilly   Always is the FIRST Level of Spirit Contact the issue of "the ability to distinguish between spirits". which is listed in the Bible under 1st Corinthians Chapter 12, Verse 10. This "Discernment of Spirits" ability clearly needs to be mastered and under control by the psychic in order for the psychic to progress to the next stage or level of development. These levels are determined by the Guidance Guild and are set up so that the onset of fear is learned to be mastered and controlled by education, knowledge, practice and skill to create a master over it.  I also refer to this initial level as the "fear level".     The reason this is the first level of training for a psychic is that in order to be excelling and successful at aiding others the psychic person must be adept at ethics, sensing, and clearly educated in the aspect of speaking with "a different group of people from a different dimension".  A person would not travel out of their own country and into a foreign land and tour it without a well thought out plan and knowledge of that country and how to prepare themselves wisely so that they hopefully won't be mugged, duped, tricked,  conned or the like. The same holds true with any new psychic endeavoring to contact the Spirit Realm people who are people just like we are here on Earth except that they are not back in Spirit once again.  As a whole, there are good people out there and also not so good people. Trusting and placing God First  is the key here plus good intentions, understanding, knowledge and experience.   Your intentions are scrutinized and evaluated closely especially in the beginning by Spirit Guides who follow standardized ways of training with their lessons and tests they give. On the side-bar column I have written in detail about these related subjects.   Trust that which is God Within You, and your own Inner Truths and values, and not what anyone Spirit tells you in your Automatic Writing events unless you approve and agree.  Always each and every contact with the Spirit Realm whether or not it is done via text chatting with Automatic Writing or visually seeing and conversing with Spirits must be done with the Highest Level of Bandwidth reached in this communication link. We have wavelengths in Earth's media communications that are common to us, and terms like "broadband, frequencies, networking, wireless, firewalls, MHz (Megahertz), are all becoming a part of our everyday vocabulary now. Notice for example I included the term "firewalls"? What new psychics are all needing to do is to build up a "firewall" of protection there with your own faith in God and a safe way of accessing HIS Bandwidth of the Holy Spirit Energy Communications. When you don't, then you leave yourself open to "hackers" and these would be in the form of Traveling Spirits of any type of attitude they wish to have and share with you.   Allow God to lead you with your psychic connection in the first place and you will build up that experienced confidence level you need, so even when you are tested with various types of events, you will always know beyond any doubt that you are always safe and secure and nothing can ultimately harm you.   So know the ropes, know what to do, what not to do, and to have the intention of Highest Good with any linking to Spirit. Another thing to mention is that always are the Gifts of the Spirit at some regular point meant to be maintained with the Gift continuing on to keep on giving. That means that the psychic should also be willing to aid others when opportunities arise. God will at times present the psychic with golden opportunities to share their gift with another freely, and the psychic themselves are expected to volunteer their gifts whenever they notice a wise opportunity presented themselves and take that initiative on their own. That is how the gift flourishes within the psychic, as God "gives to the giver". He blesses those who bless others, see?   Once you get past that "fear level" and get over being frightened, you will do wonderfully if you follow the instructions. Fear of the Unknown is this level I speak of, and it is extremely common for the psychic to deal with this, especially if the psychic person grows up in a home where this is not discussed or not considered welcome. Many times a psychic will be born to a psychic parent or parents deliberately just so that the open-minded psychic parent can be helpful for the Indigo Child to be trained and have that confidence level early on. Consider this "fear of the unknown" level in your psychic endeavors to be much like a "speed-bump" on your road, and you always slow down to travel over it without doing anything to your car and jar you, but then you continue on. That is how it is also in psychic training, you have "speed bumps" along the way to have you cautiously drive over them wisely and continue on with it. It helps you to not go too fast in any given area where it is not welcomed with this speeding, just like it is in Earthly neighborhoods with speed-bumps placed. If you have questions, please feel free to ask. That's a part of why we are here.   Love & Light, Lilly
