Safety, Responsibility and for entertainment purposes only
This is a big topic and one that merits considerable reflection as I embrace the expansion of my intuitive abilities and offer them to the world…for entertainment purposes only, indeed.
When I did my first official commissions, the responses back were wholly positive and I felt a great deal of satisfaction that what I’d offered was useful and helpful.
But what if it isn’t? What if someone reads a message, feels something, takes an action and then experiences consequences that they interpret or others interpret as negative or unhelpful?
In this world, we often seek to blame others for our actions, for the choices we voluntarily make. We have created legal systems designed to place blame instead of cultivating individual responsibility. Yes, it’s true that sometimes, people do things out of neglect or lack of care and people get hurt, but where is the line between that and an individual’s responsibility for their own life and decisions?
When someone burns their tongue on coffee that’s too hot and then sues a coffee company for making hot coffee, is that legitimate or are lawyers just rubbing their hands together knowing they will earn money regardless of who wins?
Where is the responsibility of the person drinking the coffee? Coffee is usually hot right? Ice Cream is cold. Caramels can rip out dental work. Sticking your tongue onto a frozen pipe isn’t a good idea. What, are you going to sue the pipe manufacturer for making it cold or do you now have to put signs up everywhere saying, “Do not stick your tongue on frozen pipes.”
Where am I going with this?
When I started doing this work, I was just painting pretty pictures, enjoying the play of shapes and colours. But as I continued with it, I noticed that sometimes I would be thinking about a certain person and words would pop up in my mind. I would then have a dream about the person or a message would pop out on the page as I did automatic writing and that weird and beautiful squiggly script that I call light code language.
So far, the messages have been well received and spot on. Helpful and useful.
But what if, one day, they arent? Is it my fault that the person experienced something difficult after? Maybe, if I just suddenly blurted out something to them without asking them if they want to hear my intuitive message. No one likes unsolicited advice, do they?
“I think you should sell your house and move to the country.” The person sells the house, moves to the country and then is miserable. Do they blame their friend?”
“You told me to do it so I did it and now look what’s happened!”
How many times have we all done something similar? We often end up saying, “ I never wanted to do it in the first place, but you convinced me. And now look. “
You.convinced.me.
So, whose responsibility is it? Really?
That person nagged until they finally gave in and said yes, instead of going with their gut. They ended up making a choice and then letting go of all responsibility for the choice when it didn’t turn out the way they had hoped. Why did they end up saying yes, when they wanted to say no? Was it to avoid a fight? Was it to avoid a guilt trip? So, whose decision was it, really?
So, coming back to what I offer the world.
After reading through my site, considering the FAQ’s, and then, finally, making a choice to order a commission and being required to read and agree to my privacy policies and terms of service, the person may finally choose to place an order.
This choice may result in a message that is helpful. It may open up a whole series of questions about the person’ life that motivate them to to explore further. It may do nothing but offer up a shake of the head for how wrong it all was or the person may just end up with a pretty picture with nice squiggles to put up on the wall.
I cannot control any of that, and nor is that my responsibility because the person who orders has the power to choose. If that person is struggling in life, then it is their responsibility to seek appropriate support and no lightcode intuitive message or piece of art will be a substitute for that.
So, what can a person do prior to ordering a commission to see if it’s the right thing to do?
If the person has the least doubt, fear or hesitation about ordering a commission from me, they can do several things:
- Leave the site and never come back or come back when they feel stable and ready for their personal exploratory journey.
- Email me any questions or concerns they may have before ordering a commission. Then they can make a more informed decision either way.
- Place the order, accept it as a piece of art, then discard the rest if it isn’t helpful.
- Discuss it with a competent professional caregiver prior to considering an order.
- Plan how they will receive the commission and prepare for any support they may need due to their interpretation of it.
My goal is to make beautiful art using my growing intuitive gifts that may help people discover their own strengths so they can live joyful, happy lives. That's about as simple as I can make it. The rest is up to the individual and their total responsibility for what happens next.
If you have any thoughts on this, please let me know in the comments. Thanks and be well.
