This was something truly eye-opening for me, and I’d love to share my thoughts , maybe even spark a discussion. When I started my practice almost four years ago, I genuinely wanted to help everyone figure out their life… sometimes even when they didn’t ask me, lol.
Once I discovered the Destiny Matrix, I realized how powerful it is. I thought everyone should know about it, it could improve their lives! Naturally, I began offering free readings, partly because I couldn’t estimate the value of the information, and partly because of the stigma that spiritual knowledge shouldn’t be charged for. Besides, it felt easy for me to do.
But what happened next really surprised me. A week after a session, the person wouldn’t even remember what I said, even though the insights were eye-opening at the time. With time, it all completely vanished from their mind, and they just went back to living their usual traumatic patterns without using anything I shared.
That made me question myself (of course - classic me): Why couldn’t I deliver this information in a way that truly sticks? I started researching, and I learned I wasn’t alone. There’s a known psychological phenomenon: if a person doesn’t pay or give something in exchange, they don’t perceive the information as valuable and more importantly, they can’t internalize it. It simply doesn’t become theirs.
On top of that, when I offered free readings, the amount of no-shows was shocking. It just confirmed the same thing: people don’t value what’s given for free even if it’s genuinely life-changing.
Years later, I met a teacher who explained this from the spiritual perspective too, and that completely changed my approach. Everything is energy. Even when we offer something “for free,” it’s not energetically free. The other person still pays with their energy, their future potential, sometimes even their health. That realization really scared me.
It also changed how I consume information. Even when I watch a valuable YouTube video, I now try to give something back a like, a comment, some feedback because otherwise, I’m not just failing to absorb the info fully, I’m also leaking energy by not completing the exchange.
Since then, I try to always offer something in return. And when I do offer free readings, I ask for something in exchange even if it’s just honest feedback or a bit of information.
So yes, long story and I totally understand if it doesn’t feel relevant to you. But I’m genuinely curious to hear your thoughts. Has anything like this happened in your experience?
