Love, Lust, Or Infatuation? How To Tell The Difference
When you develop intense feelings for someone, it can be hard to tell if you’re experiencing lust, infatuation, or the beginning of genuine, lasting love. All three feelings can be powerful and overwhelming, but they are very different.
These energies often manifest similarly at first: your heart races, you get butterflies, you can’t eat or sleep, and you find yourself daydreaming constantly. Not to mention the dizzy excitement you feel when you see his name pop up on your phone!
However, love, lust, and infatuation are not the same from a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual perspective.
Infatuation can hit like lightning. One day, you’re going about your life, and the next, someone catches your eye. Suddenly, you can’t stop thinking about them. It feels exciting — like something big is happening, like fate.
Infatuation is highly emotional, and if left unchecked, it can become an unhealthy obsession with someone. You idealize them and ignore their flaws. Although it can feel a lot like love, it lacks depth and stability.
It’s easy to get caught up in the rush. But that high doesn’t always last. Infatuation can fade as quickly as it began, especially when you start to see the real person behind the sparkly image.
Often, infatuation appears when we’re in a state of desperation. Maybe we’re feeling lonely or want to be loved so badly that we project all our hopes onto someone else. We might think, “This person will complete me,” or “Everything will be better once we’re together.”
Navigating The Sacred Journey Of Grief
As a psychic medium, I have spent decades bearing witness to the immense and complex journey of grief.
Over the years, I’ve learned that grief has many faces and forms. It is not only about death and dying. It can arise from various types of loss, such as the loss of a pet, the end of a relationship, a change in life path, the loss of a job, or moving away from a beloved home.
My clients often tell me, “My heart has a hole in it,” or “It feels like my heart has been torn apart.”
These aren’t just metaphors. Grief can feel so intense that it seems like a physical injury — like a ‘heart attack’ of the soul. Grief reverberates through our heart, mind, body, and spirit, leaving no part of us untouched.
One of the most important truths I’ve learned is that grief is deeply personal. No two people experience it in the same way. There is no “normal” way to grieve or a fixed timeline.
Some people begin to feel a little lighter after a few weeks or months, while for others, the sorrow lingers for years or even decades. And that’s okay.
Grieving means you loved deeply, cared sincerely, and connected profoundly. It is not just about saying goodbye, but also about building a new relationship with their absence — one that carries forward the love in a different way.
Trust Your Gut First, Your Heart Second
How do you know that what you are doing is for your highest good? How do you know if what you want out of life is based on your own desires, or if it has been placed there to be achieved by the Universe?
Everyone has a higher purpose in this lifetime and yet many never seek it out or achieve it because the ego starts to become more prominent in their lives instead of their higher self.
When you were born, a deep-seeded life calling was placed within you. As children, we were able to tap into it, always knowing that we wanted to be a fireman, a policeman, a doctor, an astronaut, an artist, a lawyer, a dancer, a scientist, or a princess. Some of us just wanted to help others, even at a very young age. We would be kind, caring, and giving to other people, whether they were children, adults, or seniors.
Unfortunately, this energy has been buried over time by the society and culture we live in – whether it be teachers, parents or mentors.
Has anyone ever laughed at you when you told them what you wanted to do or be? Did someone say, “Go back and think about that, because that will never happen”? Each of us has a different story as to why we do or do not achieve our passion and purpose in life.
Today is the day to decide, “I will achieve my dreams as long as they come from spirit and are for my highest good.
How To Manifest The Love Of Your Life
Do you find yourself daydreaming about meeting your soulmate? Imagining your life partner, wondering what they will look like and when they will arrive in your life? Maybe you’re curious if the person you’re interested in feels the same way about you. Or maybe you’re simply reflecting on your current relationship and evaluating whether it’s fulfilling your deepest desires and needs.
Regardless of your current relationship status, thoughts of romantic love probably cross your mind from time to time. After all, love is one of the most powerful and universal forces in life. It drives us, inspires us, and teaches us valuable lessons about ourselves and others.
But have you ever considered that the way you think about love directly affects the kind of relationships you attract? The truth is, we don’t just manifest love through our actions — we manifest it even more powerfully through our thoughts.
I believe that a loving, fulfilling relationship is available to everyone, not just the lucky few. If you’ve ever struggled to find or maintain meaningful love, you’re not alone.
But I also believe that the power to transform your love life lies mostly within you. You have the ability to attract the right kind of relationship by becoming clear about what you really want and setting the right energetic intentions.
Manifesting love is not about wishful thinking or waiting for fate — it is about co-creating your reality with purpose and clarity. The same rules of manifestation apply regardless of the issue or desired outcome.
Overcome Fear, Doubt, And Anxiety With Psychic Insight
Fear, doubt, and anxiety have become common emotional obstacles that many of us face in our daily lives. They can cripple our decision-making abilities, cloud our judgment, and prevent us from reaching our full potential.
Whether it’s fear of the unknown, doubt about our abilities, or anxiety about what the future holds, these emotions can be overwhelming. Psychic reading offers a unique approach to navigating and overcoming these challenges, and we are here to guide you every step of the way.
Fear, doubt, and anxiety are often rooted in past experiences, limiting beliefs, and an inability to see beyond the present moment. Fear can be a natural response to real threats, but in many cases it’s just a mindset that arises when we feel uncertain about something that hasn’t even happened yet.
Doubt often stems from a lack of confidence or trust in our choices. Anxiety, on the other hand, manifests as constant worry or unease, sometimes without a clear cause, and can interfere with daily life and well-being.
These emotions often create a cycle of negativity, where one awful feeling feeds into the next, leaving you trapped in a state of uncertainty. Fortunately, a psychic reading can provide the clarity and perspective needed to break free from this cycle.
Psychic reading is a powerful way to gain deeper insight into your emotions, thoughts, and life circumstances. Gifted psychics are able to access information that is often hidden from your own conscious awareness. Revealing this information can help you better understand the root causes of your fear, doubt, and anxiety, and provide guidance on how to release them. Continue reading
Protect Yourself From Toxic Emotional Influences
A client I read for once told me that he chose to be a loner because people always wanted something from him. “People either want money from me or they want to bend my ear with their problems,” he said. This statement struck a deep chord with me.
Over the years, I have noticed a significant increase in clients asking how to protect their energy. I find more people are becoming aware of how they are spiritually affected by others, especially those who bring negativity into their home or work environment.
I have had callers tell me how they come home from work exhausted – not from work, but from a toxic work environment. Even a simple telephone conversation can be draining if the person on the other end is met with an outpouring of worry, complaint, or anger. I dare not even mention the many toxic energy pitfalls of today’s dating scene!
I firmly believe that the influence of toxic energy on our systems is vastly underestimated in our daily lives. Our endocrine and nervous systems are particularly affected by our thoughts, actions, and interactions with others. A lack of emotional balance and a concern to avoid unnecessary toxic energy has undoubtedly become a priority.
Years ago in South Africa, I consulted a brilliant homeopath for what turned out to be an overactive thyroid. He diagnosed my condition using reflexology and his medical intuition. After the diagnosis, he said to me: “I’m going to give you some muti (a Zulu word for traditional medicine used in southern Africa). But until you sort out your emotional situation, it’s probably not going to make much difference.”
Overcoming Your Self-Limiting Beliefs
You’ve probably heard this before. I talk about it all the time. But this concept has had such an impact on my life that I just have to keep sharing it!
You are not your thoughts or your emotions. You are the soul or spirit that has the ability to observe and experience your thoughts and feelings.
When I came to this realization, I had been working for years on my tendency to be very critical of my inner dialogue. But it was only when I looked at it from a spiritual perspective that I realized how hard I had been on myself.
Our minds are constantly full of inner chatter that, left unattended, can become a toxic breeding ground for fear, self-judgment, and limiting belief patterns. Once I realized that as a spiritual being I was separate from my thoughts and feelings, I began to observe them more objectively.
As a natural consequence, I found myself asking some very compelling questions. What was I believing about these thoughts? What kind of emotions do these thoughts evoke? This kind of self-reflection opens up a conversation with your heart, your soul, your higher self.
Your mind is designed to keep you safe. Too often this means keeping you within your comfort zones and self-limiting beliefs. Your heart and soul, on the other hand, want you to grow and expand. The higher self wants you to learn, play, explore and experience as much as possible in this lifetime.
