The Power of Spiritual Certainty: Trusting Yourself

What is Spiritual Certainty?

Spiritual certainty is a topic near and dear to my heart. Too often, I see people give away their power—their ability to make choices in their own life—to others. These others might be a boss, coworker, friend, partner, or even an authority figure in a field we seek guidance from.

Sometimes, that advice just doesn’t feel right. We know something’s off, but because of the other person’s status, experience, or confidence, we second-guess ourselves. We feel anxious, uneasy, and unsettled—but we still follow their advice, ignoring our inner voice.

Why do we do this?

Ignoring Our Inner Voice: The Consequences

We’ve all done it. That sinking feeling in our gut tells us something is wrong, but we go ahead anyway—because we think we should. We convince ourselves they must know better. We doubt our own truth. But who has to live with the outcome of that decision? We do.

I’ve seen people marry the wrong person or go into business with someone they knew wasn’t trustworthy. In clairvoyant readings, it’s often clear: they knew from the beginning. They had that gut feeling. But they moved forward anyway.

Years later, when the consequences hit—whether it’s being removed from the business they built or ending a marriage—they often say, “I knew. I just didn’t listen.”

I’ve seen this happen again and again: someone hires an employee they didn’t feel good about, only to be let down when it matters most. That inner voice was speaking. But instead of trusting it, they pushed it down. They thought they were being judgmental. Overreacting. Too cautious..

Why Do We Doubt Ourselves?

Why do we ignore our own wisdom—even when it's loud and clear? Why don’t we value our inner knowing?

Because we weren’t taught to.

Most of us weren’t raised to trust our intuition. We weren’t taught that spiritual certainty—the kind that comes from within—is sacred. We weren’t told our inner voice is meant to protect us, guide us, and keep us aligned with our path.

The Wisdom of Trusting Your Intuition

Spiritual certainty is that deep knowing. The absence of doubt. The quiet confidence that your truth is enough.

Have you ever wondered how animals instinctively avoid poisonous berries or spoiled food? They don’t overthink—they trust their senses. Their survival depends on it. If something doesn’t feel right, they don’t engage. Simple as that.

That’s where the saying “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink” comes from. As prey animals, horses are highly attuned to their surroundings. If something feels off, they’ll hesitate. Their survival depends on honoring that feeling.

Animals listen. They don’t dismiss their instincts the way humans often do.

Your Body Knows: How to Recognize What’s Not Right

Like animals, our intuition is wired into our bodies. It's our inner navigation system.

So how do you know when something isn’t right? Your body tells you.
You’ll feel it.

  • You can’t sleep.

  • You feel anxious or drained.

  • Your enthusiasm disappears.

  • You sense resistance or dread.

These feelings aren’t random—they’re messages. When they show up, pause. Ask yourself: What is this feeling trying to tell me?

Don’t override your instincts. Don’t hand over your power because someone else seems more confident. You know your dreams, your soul’s path, and what brings you joy better than anyone else.
