Artist's way

Hi



Again, it's from the "acknowledgements" at the beginning of the book.

The author writes: And a special thank you to my dear friend, fellow psychic, student, and teacher, Julia Cameron, for her vision-and insistence-on my bringing The Psychic Pathway into the world. It was her psychic knowing that first noticed this book inside me 7 years ago, and in her artist's way, she helped me lead it safely into the world.

The psychic pathway led Julia to create The Artist's Way. The Artist's Way, in turn, led me to create The Psychic Pathway.


--- Does "artist's way" mean the same as "artistic way". That woman wrote the book The Artist's Way, however I'm not sure how to understand "artist's way". It's a bit strange to me.


By the way, do you think that the title: The Psychic Pathway mean the same as The Medium Pathway or The Pathway of the Medium. Is the meaning the same in your view?

The word "her" pushes us toward the assumption that she is an artist.
Many people can do things in an artistic way.

Of course, it's also a play on the book title. (personal, enigmatic)

By the way, how do you understand the title: The Psychic Pathway.

Does it mean this is the pathway along which the psychic goes? In other words: The Pathway (The Way) of the Psychic?

CliveAll mediums are psychics. But not all psychics are mediums.
That's my understanding.

I think when most people "choose" the term "psychic" to describe a person, they're thinking in terms of prescience. They sometimes attribute psychic abilities to people who don't claim them, or go about practicing them.
Whereas mediums are usu
