Saturday April 3, 2010 – the Okanagan Saturday – Kelowna
by Tara Miller
Psychic Natasha Rosewood is known for her lighthearted sense of humour and matter of fact approach on her radio shows “Bloody Hell” and she’s bringing it to Kelowna as part of her cross Canada book tour.
“Humour is my trademark. If we can’t have fun then why do it? When people come to me they are at a crossroads, often dealing with serious issues and while i don’t like to make fun of that, I do like to help them lighten up about it.”
Rosewood likens her comedic verve to the style of Monty Python and Fawlty Towers injecting that as lightness into her conversations with her clients and radio show callers.
“Often I’m listening, agreeing, validating. Some people just want to be heard and they need a different perspective to get them over that hump and plug into their own sense of what’s truth for them.”
Rosewood moved to Canada from Britain after working through some serious life issues of her own, she felt she had something special to offer others.
“My life has been a huge comedy of errors. I can laugh at it now. I feel like God is like a big comedian.”
Rosewood says that her role is often one of pulling people forward by giving them hope and helping them tap into their own intuition to connect with what they need to do to move to a positive outcome.
“There are times when something is going to show up anyway for someone and I see that and it can offer people hope and there are times when I say “well you’re going to have to work for it, think positively and set energy as intention to the universe that you want to receive. I hate the fortune teller label, because we all have work to do in our lives.”
The initially unwitting psychic explains her move from flight attendant to psychic.
“Let me tell you I came in kicking and screaming. I was always fascinated by anything with the universe and seeing patterns behind the chaos and what made people tick. I studied it, wanting to master my own life amidst chaos.”
Rosewood consulted with a myriad of psychics to find her own path. “After 10 psychics tell you the same thing I thought bloody hell, I’ll likely appear to be crazy or just weird. I knew I was going to do something big but I thought it’d be in business. When I did readings for people initially I just thought it was a coincidence if I got something right.”
Rosewood’s first book Aaagh, I Think I’m Psychic (And You Can Be Too) talks about her journey into becoming a full time psychic, Rosewood’s second book, Aaagh, I Thought You Were Dead (And Other Psychic Adventures) is 20 of the most interesting stories that Rosewood describes as “teaching stories about how energy and ghosts manifest” including some of her own.
“We are spirits ourselves; these are spirits just without the physical body. But we have control over our spiritual environment and that empowers us in so many ways. There is nothing to be afraid of and they will go away if you tell them to.”
Empowerment is a gift Rosewood hopes to impart on all her clients, encouraging them to reconnect with their sense of self, tapping into the power of their mind to create positive changes in their lives and their bodies, challenging them to create positive visualizations for their own best outcomes.
“I think people respect me because I’m not a fortune teller. It’s always about growth and what you’re learning right now, moving forward, hopefully with some humour. Have a depression session, it feels good but let’s lighten up on ourselves. We don’t know how to grieve in this culture – once we’re allowed to get to the bottom of it and have a cry about it then we can move forward. “
Rosewood has two more books ready to be edited, radio and television opportunities across Canada and moving through the US and all the way to London.
Her visit to Chapters Tues Apr 13 from 3-8 p.m. will include a taping of her radio show on site. Rosewood’s message is “We need to listen to that voice of intelligence that is wanting to support you in this life. We need to really connect with ourselves and love ourselves unconditionally. Be willing and open to say there’s a possibility within a possibility that what Natasha is saying might have some validation.”
