I’m in high school now, and I was waiting outside of this business to open. When this woman started talking to me (and I didn’t know her from before) however we were talking and she asked me what was I thinking of studying in college and I said psychology and she said her daughter done it…and she went on to explain stuff to me about it. It is the first time I ever talked to someone that known something about it, never mind having a family member having done it. She sounded like an advertisement talking about the campus, course everything and that’s the college I’m really thinking of going to but I didn’t tell her that because I didn’t get an offer yet. The university is like being at home etc why that university out of all the universities that are in Ireland that one???. Is it a sign from GOD…? thnx for the answer’s 🙂
 
Possibly. One must be careful acting on signs though. Maybe consult your priest? Even saints can get signs wrong. Only a mystic can tell you for sure if this was a sign.

It could be, and you will know if you follow the course of action you feel God is calling you to, the doors will fly open for you.

If not, the doors will slam shut. However, a word of caution on this, sometimes Satan gets in our way and throws some road blocks. This isn’t what I’m talking about. If you’re truly following God’s will, you go through those road blocks.

The best thing to do is pray for the guidance to follow His will.

It worked for me, when I was discerning the Diaconate.

Is the uni in the North or the South? I went to Queens and studied politics but I know they have an excellent reputation for psychology

not likely, just another case of one person giving an individual opinion.
 
A mystic is one who has lots of mystical experiences. A defintion follows-
MYSTICISM. The supernatural state of soul in which God is known in a way that no human effort or exertion could ever succeed in producing. There is an immediate, personal experience of God that is truly extraordinary, not only in intensity and degree, but in kind. It is always the result of a special, totally unmerited grace of God. Christian mysticism differs essentially from the non-Christian mysticism of the Oriental world. It always recognizes that the reality to which it penetrates simply transcends the soul and the cosmos; there is no confusion between I and thou, but always a profound humility before the infinite Majesty of God. And in Christian mysticism all union between the soul and God is a moral union of love, in doing his will even at great sacrifice to self; there is no hint of losing one’s being in God or absorption of one’s personality into the divine.
