The initial part of your transition to "wearable art" is called *synchronicity.* It's a well known phenomenon among psychics. It usually follows a course of events just as you have described. And it results in the feeling of personal satisfaction that you have also described.

The idea of opening a store doesnt' fit in with Spiritual Guidance because that idea did not come from *you.* Guidance would *come to you* clearly, sometimes firmly. It would come to you just as *easily* as when you found the lady in the phone book you mentioned. And you would feel comfortable with a spiritually guided decision. That's the most important element: a sense of comfort and satisfaction that would generate enthusiasm from within. From within.

My take on this is that your friend *wants* to open a business herself and sees your experience and talent as a possible asset that would promote her own agenda. She's not being a bad friend at all, but rather she just sees an opportunity that she truly feels will benefit both of you. And many times, dreams are manifestations of mere wishful thinking. (People who aspire to psychic insight have to be careful about the influence of Ego not only themselves and but also among others who advise them.)

Just keep on, keeping on for now. It seems that you have indeed been *guided* to take up another art form, but you have not been *inspired* to open a shop. Not yet, at least.
