Is There a “Right” Time to Have a Reading? How to Know You’re Ready

Clients often ask me, “Is it too soon?” or “Did I wait too long?” The truth is, there’s no perfect timeline for connecting with spirit. Some people feel called to a session days after a loss. Others wait years. What matters most is that you feel ready to receive—emotionally, energetically, spiritually.

If the desire to reconnect is coming from a place of desperation or urgency, I usually recommend giving yourself a little time to breathe. Spirit doesn’t operate on pressure—they respond to intention. When you feel more grounded, even just slightly, that’s usually a good signal that a session can bring healing rather than overwhelm.

That said, waiting too long out of fear can also rob you of comfort and connection. I’ve seen people carry regret for decades, only to discover that the one they lost has been waiting with love, ready to reassure them: You didn’t do anything wrong. I’ve always been with you.

There is no spiritual stopwatch. Spirit is timeless. They come when the invitation is open and the moment is aligned. If you’ve been thinking about a session and the thought keeps returning, that’s often your intuition—and maybe even spirit—gently nudging you.

If your heart has been whispering, maybe it’s time, I welcome you to explore that with me. Visit www.aperfectsoul.com and trust that when you’re ready, spirit already knows.
