Broken Oath Further Book Review: chapter four In chapter four of Broken Oath; from the age of twelve, when Malachi's intuition began to take hold, he took on board every senses he felt and the instructions given to him by the Universe. He knew how to be his own counsel. In contrast, his cousin Melee ignored her inner feelings.
We can all speculate as to why she behaved this way; maybe she didn't understand her dreams and warnings. But then, when she was a mere child she readily accepted her visions and senses. It is as I stated before; when we are young, we are in tune with the higher forces and as we start to grow up, we cut ourselves off from these messages.
Maybe Melee did not want to be bothered with heavenly issues, even if they did concern her. I could identify with her on that point. Can you? I know when I was her age, the world was becoming interesting and I wanted to be free to enjoy life. It never occurred to me that circumstances were rolling in on the waves of time that will have a direct impact on my life.
I can recall a time when I was doing lots of things in my life and my inner self kept telling me to slow down. Of course I wouldn't listen. Then, one night I had a dream; I saw my skin covered in some sort of disease and a voice spoke, it said I was run down and had to start taking extra vitamin C, otherwise this is what will happen to me. I woke up, noted the dream and instantly dismissed it; I regarded myself as a very healthy person, 'I never get sick.’
A week or so later I had the same dream; a vision of my skin covered in a disease and the voice spoke as before – ‘take extra vitamin C, otherwise this will happen to you.’ I was stubborn as a mule, I knew best; ‘I never get sick.’
Let me tell you now, the Universe is always right. Your intuitions are always right. Within two weeks of the last dream, I caught shingles. But that still did not convince me, I was so ignorant that even though I began to notice lesions on my skin, it still didn’t sink in. Why? Because I am a healthy person. It was not until I began to experience discomfort that I went to the doctor who told me (much to my disbelief) that I have full blown shingles, I was in the advance stage and there was nothing he could do for me. I said. “You must be mistaken.” He was not impressed with my comment and went on to say I should have come to him at the first onset. ‘Good Luck.’ He said and dismissed me.
I was shocked, how could this happen to me? It was at that point that I remembered my dreams. I confessed I was anxious, and began to read up on Shingles. Apparently the pain was due to inflammation of the nerve endings which once damaged by the shingles virus cannot repair itself and you are left in pain forever. I was shocked. ‘Damn!’ I thought. I began reading my book on vitamins and herbal remedies; how to heal my body in these circumstances. I read; I needed to take 2,000 milligrams of vitamin C and 1,000-2,000 micrograms of vitamin B12. Which I did, and after enduring much pain, I soon recovered. (Phew! Never again.) Do I listen to my intuitions now? Yes!
The Universe and/or our guardians do their best to give us spiritual counsel to steer us along a path that will cause us the least pain. But as always we know best; we get the wrong end of the stick in our interpretations of the spiritual message and we pay the price.
When Malachi tells Melee that he was scared about the stranger who would be was coming into their lives, she comforts him because she thinks she knows the reason why he is apprehensive. Malachi on the other hand knows full well why he is afraid; circumstances are going to be put into play that will directly affect Melee and he fears for her safety.
Melee is secretly worried about her dreams but for different reasons; maybe she knows she is ignoring them and part of her is concerned about the consequences. Dis-ease only comes into our lives when we are not doing what we are meant to do. And Melee will find out the hard way. As those who know, know; all is cause and effect.
I listen to my inner self now and take note of its counsel. There are now few or no sharp stones to pierce my feet along the pathway to my destination. And I mean to keep it that way.
Embrace your intuition; listen to the counsel of your inner self or its guardians.
