LETTER TO
READER FROM
JOHN EDWARD
D e a r F r i e n d ,
This book has been twenty-five years in the making; actually, its really more like forty. Why such a discrepancy in the years? Well, its simple. I turned forty last year, and it is my twenty-fifth anniversary of being a psychic medium. I wont go into detail about how I started in this profession, because I covered that in my first book, One Last Time. Instead, I want this book to be all about YOU, not me. Well, technically, its about me and my experiences, but I am sharing the lessons I learned to empower and enhance your existence in this lifetime as YOU.
If you are browsing through a bookstore or shopping around online and happen to be reading this, youre supposed to be. You may often hear that everything happens for a reason, but now ask yourself the question Why? Did you get the answer? If so, do you know HOW you got your answer or even if you were the one who thought it? Confused? Stay with me.
Think of this entire book as an experience designed to be an earthly guide to a spiritually energetic Divine process. That process is YOU. Questions will be posed to you throughout our voyage together and new ones will be formed by you along the way. I am going to take you on a metaphysical excursion, teaching you through my lifes lessons and experiences and by using metaphor and anecdotes from movies, television, and literature, all to help you evolve in your own QUEST of the INFINITE.
So set some time aside for us and we will journey into aspects of yourself and your own process of psychic evolution. And even though this book is designed to be about psychic development, I am hoping that you get the bigger picture its really about evolving into being the best YOU possible.
Are you ready to join me on an adventure? If so, read on.

PROLOGUE
Can you write a book on psychic development?
How about writing a book about the Afterlife and
what the Other Side is like?
Those are some of the questions that I often have been asked when dealing with the publishing world. I have always declined to cover these topics in a book for a variety of reasons. Maybe its my seventh-grade math teachers fault.
Never put into writing what you dont want someone else to read, Ms. Gordon would say with an all-knowing smile.
Usually she was speaking about the kids passing notes during her class. Im happy to report that I was NOT one of those kids writing my secrets down for a friend, only to cringe as I heard them read out loud by my teacher. I was too busy daydreaming and staring at the energy I could see around people, which I didnt have a name or explanation for yet. Later I would learn that I was looking at peoples auras.
I guess the main reason I didnt want to write this particular book before was that I worried that it would only teach people how to do a psychic reading. You see, ethics and responsibility are essential elements in giving a reading and cant be taken lightly by anyone. And I admit that I was not quite sure that I would be able to sufficiently get that message across. I will stress it again to make sure that right from the beginning you are hearing me loud and clear: THE ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITY THAT GOES INTO DOING A READING FOR SOMEONE IS ENORMOUSLY HUGE!
I promise we will go over this critical point ad nauseam before you finish this book. Why? Because I want you to understand that this intuitive work and world of energy that you are a part of is special, magical even. And unfortunately, its not uncommon for people to inflate their own greatness and to feed their insecurities by stroking their own Inner Monster, otherwise known as their EGO. Folks, let me tell you right here and now: EGO SUCKS and is not your friend when you are trying to develop into the type of spiritual person you viscerally know you truly want to be. If you are not vigilant, your ego can easily be your biggest downfall to your practice. My Guides once came through me during a deep channeling session that I did in a controlled environment, and they told one of my students (now a successful professional psychic medium) that he should be patient with me as his mentor because I can be harsh.
I did not remember this session even though I was the instrument for it. And when it was recounted to me, I will personally admit that I was slightly offended by the message and thought maybe my student was embellishing so I would go easier on him.
I am not harsh! was my first reaction. Harsh? Really? was all I kept saying for the next twenty-four hours after that and then the truth hit me. I am harsh. I am like a militant drill sergeant who is willing to do whatever it takes to bring out the best from his troops. I will be that same way here with you to the utmost of my ability, but your free will has to choose to let my voice speak to you through the pages of this book.
So in keeping with my promise, I want to be very clear now and throughout this work. I am not writing this book so that you can have a new occupation of doing psychic readings for people. If that is your primary goal, return the book immediately, put it on your shelf, or give it away. This book is
