Childhood Psychic Journey and Self Discovery

I have been on a spiritual journey starting at a very young age when I had an experience that changed my life forever. When I was 8, I had a very vivid dream of me standing on the side of a dark road. I could feel the cool breeze against my face and hair, and felt my gown moving against my legs. I could smell the night air as I stood on the side of the road, watching two headlights come towards me. In a flash, the face of my Aunt was clear, I had a knowing come over me that she was in the car.  I watched as the car flipped over in the middle of the night and saw my aunt fly out of the front windshield and get pinned under the car. I screamed and awoke. I ran into my mothers room, who reassured me that I had a terrible dream and to go back to sleep.  My feet still felt chilled and my gut knew it was more than a dream. I was there. I fell asleep next to my mother, and about 5-6 hours later, we received a phone call. I'll never forget the look on my mothers face. It was my aunt, she was in a fatal car accident that night; fell asleep at the wheel and was thrown from the vehicle from not wearing her seat-belt. I was confused. Surprised. Abandoned by my mother who wanted my experience to just go away, but i had questions.   What WAS that?  Why did I have to see it, what could I have done?  I've dared to dream, although cautiously since then and have had many experiences that can not be explained nor challenged. I've realized that living in fear of the unknown creates fear.  I've had to journey inward, read, study, pray, listen to God and talk to my guides. I have embraced my gift even though I tried to challenge myself and my experiences. I have developed various modalities for personal and spiritual growth.
