Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Channeling?

A: Channeling is the process that is used to tap in and communicate with spiritual beings such as your Spirit Guide Team or your higher spiritual self. I use this method to speak to your spirit guides and see if there are any messages for you to receive or even to pull blocks/limiting beliefs that may be holding you back in your life path.

Q: How do you Channel?

A: Each reader has a different process. Because I see things so visually, I invite your guides into my sacred space (which I have designed to look like Hogwarts from Harry Potter) and let them sort of make themselves at home. They will then use what is around them to communicate messages to me to convey to you. I narrate everything I see and try to provide in-moment interpretations of those symbols or messages. Sometimes that involves me googling on camera and other times it might result in me sending you a follow-up email because deeper research is required. Often I see things in Pop culture references and it creates not only an effective way to provide you the information you need, but a good time all around.

Please note that as the reader, I am only the translator. Messages may be vague and not understandable in your present self, but I do my best to try and validate the answers to your questions in the moment.

Q: What is a spirit guide?

So, before we come to this earth, all of us have entered into a spiritual contract with at least one or all of these magical entities that can vary greatly. Sometimes this can be referred to as our spiritual team. Your guides are literally that— guides! They possess the map, experiences, and even the list of lessons for you to learn while in this existence and then it is up to you to live or make it happen. Your Spirit Guides are not bad and none of them are here to harm you. They only want what is in your best interest. And yes, you can have more than one, but not all of them always appear when channeling. They can pick and choose when to reveal themselves. You also can have guides that comes in and out for specific purposes in your life.

Q: Is the reading you give me my predetermined fate?

Here’s the thing. Each spiritual person you talk to is going to give you a different answer regarding how much free will we have as humans. My answer is, and what I will always tell you before I give you a reading or channel for you, is that the information I am giving you is based on your current energy. If you do not like what you hear in your reading, then you have the power to change that. The same goes for Astrology. Your birth chart is your “blueprint.” If you were to put the blinders on and do no self-discovery work, then the chart would be your default setting. Again, you have the free will to work on your thoughts, habits, and behaviors if you don’t like what you hear. It’s uncomfortable and you have to stay committed to it, but you are under no obligation to listen to what the stars and planets determine if you do not agree with it.

Q: What is Block Pulling and how does it work?

When we have thoughts, limiting beliefs, or even recurring emotions about things in our lives that keep us stuck in cycles we feel we cannot break that is called a block. It is collected energy that literally blocks us from moving forward with the things we wish to accomplish. I pull this by getting permission from you and go into your energy to remove the block and then replace it with something that is more beneficial to you.

Ex: “I will never be able to make a million dollars.” I will go into your energy and see where this resides and then replace it with something like “I trust my financial abundance is limitless.”

Note: Block pulling can take some time to settle and may make you feel ungrounded after a session if things are integrating. Block work can also take a few sessions because sometimes the initial block you are asking about is part of a stack which digs deeper than the surface level belief you want to address. In the example above, money blocks are often rooted around trust. That deeper layer requires us to work through and pull blocks around trust instead of just the one belief of you feeling like you can never make a million dollars.

Q. How long will it take to get my order?

Scheduled channeling or block pulling sessions occur live during the time you selected. All other orders have a typical turnaround time of 2-3 weeks at the most. If you have not received your order or confirmation of tracking, then please reach out to readingsbyhalliwell@gmail.com. Please note that no orders are same-day issue. That’s just not feasible for me as a reader to do.
