Know Thyself
Hi,
My name is Anna Maria Ottosson, I am a Swedish born woman living in Portugal since 1994. Mother of 2 sons. My search for God and spiritual truth started early. I say my search, because I recall being around 6 or 7 when I asked my Mother where I came from. -From my belly , she answered. I must have looked more than confused because she came back to me with a booklet about how babied are made. I wasn't pleased. I wanted to know where I came from, who I truly was. Some years later, around 12 I started to have what I would call my first existential crises. The life we were leading, that we were expected to lead, didn't make sense to me. So as I was contemplating life I came to the conclusion that for life to make sense it had to have meaning. I later came across Victor Frankl's book on the subject. So my search for God and spiritual truth started. I used to say that I needed to KNOW God, at least I needed to KNOW that God existed. Trusting someone else's words was not enough. So I have over the years become quite obsessed with the need to recognize and understand the Truth around God's laws. To experience how I can transform my life when I fully comprehend the truth. As anyone who dedicates themselves like I have to studying spiritual and religious teachings and rituals, I have come to hold some closer to my heart than others. It has become clear that there are many similarities but also many diferencies. I have come to conclude that there are many ways, many paths to walk to find God. There are though almost an unanimous concept in regards to the importance in the old: Know Thyself. In 1998 I was pregnant, expecting a baby girl, when I fell very ill 8months into the pregnancy. I could feel that my baby had died, and at the hospital they confirmed that. Somewhere here I have a tunnel vision of following the soul of my babygirl. I am stopped by a lightbeing that tells me that I have to choose. To choose between my oldest son, leaving him, or following the soul of my girl. As they showed me the image of my 3 year old son, I just knew with every fiber of my being that I couldn't leave him. Soon after this I had a very clear vision both visual and sound from a being telling me that I would recover my health completely (at that time I wouldn't have thought it possible, nor would my doctors) and that I would be having a gift of another baby. He has truly been a gift, even though it hasn't always been easy. Somewhere in this I got the message that the first step in order to fulfill any purpose or mission in life, the first step is always KNOW THYSELF.

Today I find that assisting people in this is what I am here to do, and by doing that I am actively participating in creating Heaven on Earth. Quite clearly it is a most personal objective for me, but I find that assisting others to Create their version of Heaven is most certainly assisting me in the same process. Now, although Heaven sounds as without issues, that is not so. Heaven on Earth is when we can be our authentic essences, and create our lives from there. It does in no way take away the challenges in life, but gives them a different meaning. I find it somewhat flawed to call myself a coach or a therapist, when what I really am here to do is to assist people in knowing themselves and helping them reconnect with their inner strength and personal truth. So therefore I might call myself a SoulAdventurer. As we are all souls having an adventure in life. To make it clear, any actual adventure comes with risk. It cannot truly be called an adventure otherwise. The issue is not if there are risks, but what type
of risks we are willing to experience, and when. You might feel inclined to swim in the ocean, but if there are sharks around you might want to think twice before you do that if you are bleeding from somewhere. If swimming with sharks is something you feel drawn to do, you might wanna wait until you stop bleeding. On the other hand you might just bruised yourself when you fell of the horse, in which case getting back up on the horse as soon as possible is important. As I have searched for answers for myself I have learnt a number of techniques and tools to unearth and transform what causes us to feel out of touch with life. My 4 decades long passion for astrology is still strong, and is a part of the therapy I was given by my guides close to 4 years ago. Since then it has been the basis for some remarkable changes in my own and other people's lives. Although one session sometimes is enough I have come to notice that sometimes we need something more than an one off. So therefore I have packages of 3, 6 and 12 months for those who feel the need for more structured assistance. I find that the clients that come and work with me, and for whom it is really beneficial, are the ones that share my passion for truth, and are willing to search for it anywhere, irrespective of time, place, space… My passion for astrology started when I was 15 and my Mother handed me my first recording of my natal chart. I was truly astonished at the time of all the accurate information that could be found in the reading I got.. Even more so since my Mother always struggled to understand me, I found it remarkable that a stranger that never met me, could be so accurate in describing me. Some years later I came across Tarot, that can be a very useful help but unfortunately also can be a maior distraction.
For the readers that are interested I am offering a channeled message to anyone that reaches out to me through mail. I am currently only available for 1-1 sessions. Feel free to book a session for 88$.
