Knock First
Thursday, November 30th, 2006A Note on Psychic EtiquetteÂ
If you want to be able to continue to safely develop and work with your psychic abilities, you must also learn good manners. Knock first, ask first, are two very simple, and very important rules of etiquette in any form of spiritual or psychic work. Barging in where we’re not invited, and usually not wanted is a No NO in this work…
Respectful behaviour and good manners were conditioned into me as a very young child with demands for please and thank you, and the expectation that any adult would be addressed as “Miss”, ”Mrs” or “Mr.” or for family friends, “Aunt” or “Uncle”. As I matured, my parents treated me like a lady and expected me to act like one. I recall the first time my father ran ahead to open a door for me… I was 13… That simple act left a lasting impression. This was also about the time I was first given my very own bedroom… as the eldest of 6 kids, my own private space was quite a privilege. What was really special was that I could shut the door and no one was allowed to come in, including my parents, without knocking first. And the rule was enforced, not by me, but by Mom and Dad.
