Last week I was interviewed for a news programme by a radio station in Wiltshire. The interview was on the 2012 prophecies and whether I thought the end of the world was nigh.  I was interviewed a few days before the last venue on my 2012 talk tour and, I guess, a mixture of tour fatigue (very rock ‘n’ roll!) and interview nerves made me babble away about the approaching Armageddon to a startled young news reader who clearly thought her colleagues had arranged me as a prank for some mid-week entertainment.

For me, however, the interview proved a defining moment in my life because, for a split second, I saw with complete clarity, how I was viewed by another human being. It shocked me. No, I mean REALLY shocked me.

You see, where I live, I have a certain amount of anonymity. Few people know who I am or what I do, and that’s the way I like it. I’m the nice man with the nice wife and the smiling toddler. Nobody looks twice at me in the greengrocer’s. I can tootle around Sainsburys without incident and without feeling the urge to approach other shoppers and confront them with urgent messages from their spirit guides or soul masters. I’ve even stopped going to the barbers because they always ask you what you do for a living. No problem there, I’m not embarrassed by how I earn my daily bread, no, it’s just that lots of hairdressers are frustrated psychics and mediums and you then end up talking shop for half an hour when you’re desperate to talk about anything but.  Julie cuts my hair now and I make her ask me questions such as, “Did you watch the game last night, sir?” even though I have absolutely no interest in football.

I’m a middle-aged dad who enjoys reading trash novels, drinking red wine and playing the guitar badly. I also just happen to be a pretty damn good psychic, if I say so myself. So, what’s the problem here? (apart from my ego).

Well, up to now, the only people who knew I was a psychic were people looking for a psychic. People who came for guidance, or a workshop, or to learn the ancient psychic arts, all these people got what they expected – a psychic. But, up to now, the rest of my life was my own……well, until the day of the radio interview.

It really hadn’t hit home that these 2012 talks were going to be so radically different to anything that I’d done before, but they were. You see, the talk itself demanded two things of me that I hadn’t fully recognised when I started out. Firstly, that I speak my truth, as I see it, to anyone who cared to come and listen – not just the home crowd. And secondly, that I now live my truth and fully assimilate it into my life.

Now, that doesn’t mean I’m going to be donning a Gandalf hat for trips to Sainsburys, but it does mean I have to live with greater awareness and respect of the higher truths in my life. I’m a psychic who believes that our third dimensional world is about to end. I have to take responsibility for this truth and live accordingly.

To that young radio newsreader, I was as strange as the sandwich board man who paraded along Oxford Street when I was a boy. I’d crossed her mental line between humorously eccentric and delusional whacko and she couldn’t control the tension in her voice. Was I just to be pitied or was I dangerous?

But, for me, the important point was that she didn’t know how to react to me. I was outside her comfort zone. She had no longitude or latitude to help her navigate what I was saying so a shutter audibly clanked shut and we were left either side of a partition and both of us feeling uncomfortable about the experience.

Where I am going with this? Well, as a psychic, I can tell you that 2008 is going to be an extraordinary year. We are in a unique place in space and time where the most extraordinary things are going to be revealed to those who are paying attention.

For those of us who have been aware of the subtle changes in the way we perceive reality and who have a growing awareness of the dimensions interconnected with our own, this is going to blossom into full realisation. Doors are opening in the cosmos this year. Doors are also opening at the very core of our being.

A great alchemical process is taking place around us and within us right now. It is part of a grand design and many reading this can either sense this process happening, or have some form of communication with one or more of the cosmic agencies overseeing it.  Some of you, I strongly believe, are consciously engaged in aiding this process.

Something IS happening. Can’t you feel it? There has been a shift in our perception that has opened us to a radically altered view of our third dimensional reality and this is allowing us to glimpse and sense the wider realities around us. We are like the smallest Russian doll of the set which was blind to the larger dolls that envelop her, but is now aware that she exists on many greater levels and that these levels could, in fact, be limitless.

This process has already arrived at a point where many of us feel differently about life. Some of us a experiencing a growing detachment from “normal” life with its quarrels, politics, desires, addictions and obsessions. Much that used to concern us greatly, or demanded our time and energy, is now viewed from a higher level of consciousness. We do what needs to be done but without the emotional charge.

To me, this is not alienation. Far from it. I feel very connected to the world and very interested in it. But now it’s like viewing life from the next Russian doll up and now the “bigger picture” is far too exciting and involving to keep investing all your energy in the soap dramas of our everyday world.

My point is that 2008 promises much to those who are really paying attention. However, from now on, merely paying attention isn’t enough. You now have to be actively involved in the process. You have to commit to what you now see and sense if you want to move forward from this point. It’s time to live your truth. Even if you are just catching glimpses, it’s time to commit. This new reality demands your full attention or you’re going to miss the signs.

And the chasm between your reality and that of people still caught up in their third dimensional life dramas is going to widen beyond imagination this year. We can no longer expect to be understood or accepted by those who wish to remain where they are. We are hearing a different beat and a different tune and either we’ll try to block it out or we’ll try to only tune into it when we want to. Either way, eventually we’ll stop hearing it altogether and get back to business as usual. However, if you commit to the tune, you’ll feel the music in every fibre of your being. The air will crackle with its vibrancy. To dance will become an irresistible urge. Embrace the dance, there is no going back.

Please ponder what I’m saying. Spend time in nature. Feel the elements around you and then decide if I’m right. Put it out to the air and the earth beneath your feet. The change is happening in the alchemy of the elements around you. Address them and know their truth.

I wish the young newsreader well, for she has been a good teacher. I still craved a little niche in the everyday world of the small Russian doll. I wanted people to feel comfortable with me and see me as acceptable. That’s no longer possible for me. My soul stirs and wants to dance to the truth it hears. I want to dance with all the new sensuous realities that surround me. The way forward is my completeness.

With love and light,

David
