Thanks a lot for the new session, Laura & crew.
:)
The question Artemis asked hit quite home with me, as I have had the same experience multiple times in my life: I was given a glimpse of where to go, kind of a general direction or a mission to accomplish, which required a certain skill set, that I thought I didn’t have, but as soon as I felt it, it was gone again.
Very frustrating!
I have been mulling over my last post ...
The reason is, that these impressions I described happened predominantly in my adolescence, a time where I was not doing too well. Lots of infighting in the family, lots of frustration at school and with friends, a very negative image of myself and self-loathing. So I wonder, if these “impressions” were not merely a compensatory mechanism to make myself feel “special” or “destined”, in the sense that “life now sucks, but I am here for greater things in the future (while now I am a total looser)”.
Now, I am not trying to insinuate that this is also the case with Artemis, but it might well be the case with me - I certainly know that self-importance is something that I am not immune to, and this may well be one of the ways it showed up in my life. I haven’t had any recent such experiences so that made me wonder ...
