Step by step, she shows us how to call for a sign, how to create the best conditions for receiving it, and how to interpret the signs we receive, with the most comprehensive dictionary of signs ever compiled.

For instance . . * An abyss might symbolize a chasm in your life. Is there something that seems impassable to you?* A storm can indicate internal conflict. It can also indicate that the air is clearing in regard to a situation in your life.* A crossroads signifies that a time of decision is ahead. Take time and tune in to your intuition before choosing your future path. * Smoke can be a warning of danger. Is there a situation in your life that's about to go up in flames?
