awareness of the 'life plan'

[Diana]

in my view, I think the closer one is aligned with one's intution (Ra says: "Moving further down the tree of mind we see the intuition which is of the nature of the mind more in contact or in tune with the total beingness complex.") and consciously working with self-generated catalyst, the clearer one's purpose (and chosen life lessons) become.

...

it would seem then, that actively seeking help or other perspectives (psychic insight) would be a beneficial step to make when one is really really lost as to life purpose.

It has been my observation that the use of psychics and seers is misused. I think if they are visited in the manner you mention, either for being woken up or as a way to get back on track, their insights may be very effective. But I have seen over and over again the seeking outside of self as to what is what. New-agers who continually go to channelings, psychics, etc. asking for guidance. The point I'm getting at is this: it gives the power to someone(thing) else. It may be better to spend the time developing the connection to the higher minds, so that guidance comes directly from self. And there is also an element here of discernment. Many I have seen doing this don't even question the guidance, as though anything which comes from "beyond" is "right."

Also, seeking knowledge is not the same as implementing it. The ego is important, yet it continually seems to overstep its bounds. In my own case, this manifests as overanalyzing everything. Analyzing at some point becomes debilitating, because I am not doing, moving forward--I'm just talking about it so to speak.
