Being 'Psychic'

(1/3) > >>

CrazyLace - P:
I am moved to create this topic so as to enlighten many of you on what 'being psychic' entails. I am not soliciting clients; I am attempting to enlighten, clarify and empower many of you regarding having psychic readings. I am in no way speaking for all psychics or intuitives; I am sharing my perspective, experience, and truth.

I am clairvoyant (have visions), clairaudient (hear voices and sounds), clairsentient (have impressions, 'gut feelings'), claircognizant (have 'inner knowing' - some things I just know), an Empath (can feel what another feels), and a Medium (communicate with those who have transitioned)...now that's a lot to access when giving someone a reading. I don't use tools (Tarot Cards, Runes, Playing Cards, Pendulums, etc.); I read via energy. I have been giving readings for 24 years now. Now, enough of me, let's talk about You.

You want a psychic to tell you what? What you want to hear, because some will. You say you want the truth? Okay then be self-aware and open-minded so that the truth can be relayed to you. Yet be consistent; some clients will ask for the truth but they really want to hear what they want to hear and when the psychic doesn't offer such, they give a bad review, form an attitude, or simply disconnect. KNOW WHAT YOU WANT BEFORE YOU CALL A PSYCHIC.

DO RESEARCH...because why not? If you are serious about your question, then you should be serious about its answer and so spend the time discovering the psychic/intuitive who has good or great feedback. You may want to make sure they have a lot of feedback (well more than one person LOL!) so that you can have a better view of who they are as a Psychic. Some great Psychics will have negative reviews and feedback due to several factors. 

ACKNOWLEDGE OR NOTE THEIR 'STYLE OF READING'...sometimes clients give a psychic the thumbs down because the psychic was direct and brief, while the client wanted compassion, comfort and hand-holding. Therefore, this has nothing to do with ability, yet everything to do with the client's then-current emotional needs. You may get a psychic who is into animal totems and fairies yet you're just concerned with your professional journey...his/her delivery may sound too far out to offer you any insight into your issue.

NOTE THEIR METHOD OF READING...some use tools, some do not. If you don't want astrology or numerology filtered throughout your psychic reading, then don't speak with an Astrologer or Numerologist. Ask your psychic when you first get on the phone what tools they are using. And make sure you are comfortable with the tools they are using. Some do not like to hear the Tarot Cards being shuffled; some like to know that the Psychic is naturally-gifted, thus no tools should be needed. To each his own...such is life.

INTUITIVE INFORMATION IS THE TRUTH, IT IS NEITHER EMOTIONAL OR LOGICAL...so do not try to process your reading via consciousness (current awareness) or imagination (picturing the visual of what the psychic is telling you). While consciousness may aid in validating some things and affirming others, it can also sabotage the process for remember, you asked for intuitive information not to explain what you already know. Proper processing of intuitive information is key to having a successful reading.

YOU HAVE FREE WILL...so know that you can change the outcome of many things. Nothing a psychic relays is etched in stone, though there are claircognizants who, at times, will relay information that seems to be 'etched-in-stone'. 

NOT ALL PSYCHICS ARE PSYCHIC...so stop acting like they are. If you have a reading, and for all intents-and-purposes, it was completely inaccurate, don't say you had a 'bad psychic reading'; rather become enlightened that some who claim they are psychic are not. You didn't have a 'bad psychic reading'; you had 'an expensive conversation with a stranger'.

ALL PSYCHICS ARE NOT GIFTED EQUALLY...yeah. With that being said, some psychics may be of assistance in specific areas because of their specialties and their deliveries, while some are only good in one specific area. It is best that you not have readings with a variety of psychics primarily for this reason; you are likely to wind of confused, disheartened, broke, frustrated and depressed.

CHOOSE YOUR PSYCHIC...you are in control. There are many psychics out there, if ever you're communicating with a psychic and you feel uncomfortable, disconnect. Perhaps your own intuitive energy is trying to tell you something. You want to make sure that your psychic - someone you are paying for a service and believing to be honest - is someone you feel comfortable with, aside from his/her comments and feedback. Every psychic will not harmoniously connect with every client...and vice versa.

GIVE IT TIME...allow your reading to unfold. I had a client who read with me twice via email years ago. After the third reading, she stopped. A few years later, she sent me an email stating that the reason why she stopped was because the first two readings were on point yet the third one had her confused. It was years later when things were happening that a friend of hers asked her about the reading I had done. She found it and realized that the third reading - that confused her - was accurate and everything that was noted to occur, happened. So you see, give it time. Be patient, yet make sure you are being patient with a psychic that you trust.

BECOME EDUCATED...know what the metaphysical terms mean; know what gifts the psychic claims to have and are using. In the reading, they may share which gifts they are using. For example, they may say, "I'm hearing loud music and then a train..." and you may respond, "Yeah, I live near the train station so I blast my music often to drown out the noise." He/She, in that moment, was being 'clairaudient'. Now, know this: if the psychic has various gifts, he/she is likely to use all of them at the same time. In which case we are interpreting the intuitive information. You see folks, I don't predict; I interpret intuitive information. Also know this: a psychic's own sense of self can damage a reading. If he/she is insecure (lacking confidence), they may choose to omit information from your reading, some may simply sugar-coat it. And, unfortunately, some will lie.

LASTLY, GUESS WHAT PSYCHICS ARE??? PEOPLE!!! So with that being said, stop it. Stop acting like someone who claims to be psychic is someone of power. No, they are simply a person making a claim until it has been proven. And then they are still a person, subject to the human experiences of all other persons, who has a gift (and we all are gifted in some way) that you are utilizing. Choose to not give your personal power over to a psychic or anyone else for that matter. Be careful of placing them on pedestals, hanging on every word, becoming a fan (or fanatic).

Okay, I'm all typed out!! I hope this post is helpful to some of you.  :)

Thanks for this, can I ask you...  Do you ever find people that you just can't read for? What does that look like? Also, how do you know that you have the person we are asking about with just a first name?

You are very welcome.
I have encountered people that I don't want to read for. If someone approaches me and I'm not cool with their energy, I won't read for them. This usually occurs when I'm asked to be a Medium. Some people want to communicate yet aren't ready for the communication. For example, a woman wanted me to keep an argument b/t her and her deceased husband...seriously. His energy had changed, he was apologizing, and she knew I had gifts for she said so. She didn't understand how I could relay such information if I wasn't communicating with her husband. Anyhoo, I told her that I could no longer read for her because she didn't understand that I am simply the 'medium' through which communication was had, that's all. And as an Empath, I can feel what another feels...so I'm feeling her anger and his regret. I felt uncomfortable, like watching two people that you respect have  a nasty argument.

I do decline to do readings for some. My ideal client is one who is self-aware or desires to become self-aware. One who is enduring a spiritual awakening. One who wants to emotionally heal, psychologically transform. My 'soul purpose' is 'to assist in the healing of others'; I do that via my readings. And so I am a Psychic who will not take your money if I have to deal with tense energy. Yet I am one who can make you very mad ('cause I'm telling the truth) and oh so enlightened.   ;)

Regarding knowing a person simply by 'hearing a name': I'm an Empath. I can feel what another feels, so I simply connect with the energy of the person (by whatever name they are called) and explain their motivations and intentions to the client. Now, know that some Empaths claim to be gifted in other areas and are not. They are good at describing people, yet cannot - on a broad level - interpret intuitive information. I am not the best psychic, I don't know that there is a 'best psychic'. I am not criticizing other intuitives or psychics. I am attempting to empower the clients. I love and appreciate mine; I want others to discover their own psychics/intuitives who will love them and be respectful of their situations. 

And know that we all have intuitive energy. I know You are.   ;)

Thanks for sharing! Could you share your website or wherever you are reading at?

Also, would you say you are more of an empath than a psychic that excels at predictions?
