Do:
Prepare yourself and have a purpose for the reading
Every psychic cringes when s/he asks a client what they
want to know about and the answer is ‘the future’ - the
future is a very broad subject, such an reply makes it hard for
your reader to define the scope of the reading and focus in on
what’s important to you now... Nothing may come in clearly and
there may be a lot of fuzzy concepts floating around
that are hard for the psychic to get clarity on. So, prepare a list of
questions, and then prepare yourself. Clear your mind of the
cares and worries of the day, then clear your heart and will of
your projections and expectations - those “wants and wishes”
that are so important to you can bounce back in a reading as
fact, when it’s only your wishing so hard...
Don’t...expect
the psychic to make your decisions for you.
We’re often asked for lucky numbers and the most
fortunate days for marriages, births, business ventures and so
on. Numerologists and astrologists can give some good guidance
for this. But if we were able to make such accurate predictions
off the top of our heads every day, I can assure you, we wouldn’t
be working so hard! Psychics can provide good insights and
information - guidance - second opinions - but they can't
run
your life and the serious professionals certainly don’t want
to. Use a reading as an additional source of information, then
take your power and use your own instincts and intuition to know
how best and when to apply what you learned from the reading.
You will only get the information that God wants
you to know, a reading will not fix your life just
like reading a diet book will not automatically
make you thinner. Be realistic.
Do:
Give some feedback
A psychic can't work in a vacuum, we need a little feedback,
too! If the reader is accurate (as far as you know), then let
them know. If you feel he or she is on the wrong track, speak
up. Of course, what you thought you wanted to discuss may never
come up. The issue you asked about may never develop or die out.
If a psychic is getting strong perceptions about some other
area, he will let you know. Expect to be surprised. If you are
clear and direct with the reader about what’s going on in your
life and what you want to know right now, you’ll have a much
better chance of getting an accurate reading that provides you
with some good guidance and direction.
Don’t...assume
the psychic has eyes in the back of their head.
The “Stump the Psychic” game that skeptics encourage as a
first step in getting a good reading is a waste of valuable time
and money—and will often put even the best psychics off so
that they lose their enthusiasm to read you. I definitely
encourage folks to be somewhat skeptical—especially when
someone is offering curse removal, but it’s truly a waste of
time to hide your wedding rings and change your names or
withhold information about your circumstances. However, if you
want the reader to focus on the future, give him or her a little
background so the time spent is not getting validation on what
you already know. Time goes very quickly in a reading and
you may have the psychic spend most of it
going over the past.
Do:
Choose the time carefully.
Avoid doing a reading when you’re depressed - unless
that’s what you want the reading to be focused on. While a
reading in the midst of a crisis can be useful in helping you
figure out how to deal with it, it’s definitely not the best
time for a Life reading, since anything that shows up at the
moment will be influenced by the crisis. It’s best to wait
until the dust has settled before you take a longer-range view
of your life... If you do decide to get a reading when life
seems difficult, be prepared to hear some
information you may not want to hear. You
may have some big changes to make in order
to get your life back in order. Before the reading, take a few deep breaths,
ground yourself, and try to generate some loving peaceful energy
around you.
Don’t:
Expect a serious reading, unless you’re taking it seriously.
If you’ve been taking alcohol or drugs, it can be very
difficult for even the best readers to wade through the fog to
find the clear answers you’re wanting. If you’ve just eaten
a big meal, had a fight with your partner, or you’re not
feeling well, these also can impact the quality of the reading -
and the tone. So, even if you’re doing the reading “just for
fun,” take it a little seriously: calm and clear yourself,
even for a few minutes, before you sit down for the reading so
your energy is strong and balanced. Remember, you are getting
Divine information--this is a gift! If
you have a negative attitude then the
messages that come through to the
psychic may be negative also.
What should your
expectations be?
How
much of a part should you play in a reading? The most important
thing is to be a good listener. Don't interrupt too often.
Psychics work from a flow of ideas, from often fleeting
impressions. We have
to concentrate to maintain that flow. If
there are too many breaks, information gets lost. And, don't take
what your psychic says as gospel—you have great influence over
future events! God/dess gave everyone the right to free
choice--for better or worse. The idea is to avoid pitfalls. Accidents or
unpleasant incidents seen in a reading don't have to happen.
Through awareness and alertness, you can alter your direction, so
that the "future" a psychic predicted may never come to
pass, since you've changed the present.
When
clients want to know when they are going to meet their “soul
mate” the answer can vary from vague, to suggestions on
personal
growth, to very detailed. Unfortunately not everyone’s life
purpose includes a permanent “soul mate” they will remain with
for life. If one comes up in a reading, expect a general description and enough
specific details so you’ll recognize your future “significant
other” when the time is right. A reader may say you are going to
meet someone at a wedding, party, doctor’s office, etc, but don’t
think that’s written in stone either. Sometimes fate has people’s
paths cross a few times before they finally notice each other.
Sometimes a name will be clearly given but most of the time it’s
just an initial. This is because some names are very common. What
if you were told you soul mate was named “Bob.” Would you
wonder if every Bob you met was the right one? Of course you
would. And you may end up with the wrong one!
You
wanted to know about your finances but were instead given messages
for personal growth, romance or family. This is because the
information you receive during a reading is what you need to know
vs. what you want to know. The reader is more like a translator,
passing on the messages to you and can’t direct what information
is given. They must pass on the information received in the hopes
that you will understand it sometime in the future. for example, personal
growth messages received may be just what you need to do in order
to attract more
prosperity.
Not
all readers are genuine psychics—be careful! There are a lot of
people out there who want to lighten your wallet. The following
advice may help keep you from being deceived by a con. Don't
believe the routine about someone doing evil against you or a
curse being placed on you. Anytime a "psychic" tells you
such nonsense, recognize this person as a fraud. Remember, you are
free to end a reading at any time. Lately I have been hearing a
lot about "curses." Clients will often ask, "Do I
have a curse on me? I went to a psychic and she said, “Someone
is working evil against you but I can help you. Give me ninety
dollars (or some such outrageous price) and come back next week
for a reading." I have run into a few people that have paid thousands
of dollars to these charlatans! Don't believe a word of it—the
only person working evil against you is someone who would tell you
such nonsense.
You
should feel good when the reading has been completed even if the
reader has told you something you didn’t want to hear —"s/he’s
not coming back into your life," and "s/he is not your
"soulmate,"' are the most difficult to deliver
messages... If your reader is delivering bad news,
s/he should also be delivering you some information about how to
cope, what the purpose of this situation is, how you can avoid
it in the future
or
minimize it and what the positive effects of this event will be in
the long term. If the information given is negative or very
dramatic, take it with a grain of salt, refuse to be scared by
the doom and gloom,
and, don’t go back to that reader again! Every good psychic is
also a healer and readings are intended to be
healing
experiences, so if you don’t come away feeling okay, then it
probably wasn’t a good reading or you need to go back and
ask for clarity.
