Metaphysical, Spiritual and Psychic Discussions > Psychic Readings That Came True
Fatalism believing your life is already decided
Clarita:
So much on this site is about predictions and asking if predictions or time frames were accurate. I dont believe our lives are mapped out in front of us like that. It takes away the notion of free will. To me, a Psychic will tell you how things are looking and likely to be.
What you decide to do with that and how you choose to act and react is up to you then. A Psychic reading for me isnt someone telling me my life is already decided for me without me being involved in the outcome. That, regardless of what I do or say the same result will happen.
I just dont believe that to be the case. It goes against logic even.
A psychic reading in my view should be an accurate reflection of the situation we are facing with a good sense of where we stand in that situation and a discussion of what we can do.
Guidance and insight is what a good honest Psychic reading is for me. Not telling me my life is decided for me and I'll just have to wait for that to happen and I cant change the outcome.
An expectation that a Psychic is going to tell you what to do or to take your personal power or responsibility over your own life situation is surely not even ethical or fair to yourself let alone this professional you are paying.
Any reading I've had where the Psychic is trying to tell me my future is set in stone waiting to happen I just shake my head and raise an eyebrow. I may well be attracting that path sure, however I believe I have the ability to react in a different way or avoid the path.

Very motivating post. However, as someone who practices astrology, as much as I'd like to believe in freewill, I can't seem to. I fight and I try to take control but in the end, I try to accept the situation. For me if a psychic says freewill, they lose credibility. I can read my chart and see what's to come so for me when I see a psychic, I want them to be able to tell me what potentials the other person can unlock in my life whether it's a love interest or professional life because I don't have their chart.
I wish I could believe in freewill though, I think I'd be happier knowing I'm in control of my destiny. Sigh.

Agreed. After I began studying astrology, I realized how much of our lives are predetermined. How many events (both good and bad) happened exactly when they were supposed to. I'm an extremely logical person but when I see over and over again that it works, I can't deny it. I study it in people around me and it works flawlessly. I believe there is some free will but the majority is predestined. There are mantras and things you can do to work with the planets to improve your karmas and what not but even then they say only the people meant to find and utilize them, will. There's a lot of power in astrology and you can't escape your chart, you can only use it and turn it to steer to the best possible destination.

A few of you reply and mention free will, the post was about that but a few other things. Like what a good reading is and away from the notion that your life is predetermined so expecting a Psychic to tell you what your life is for you. As if you have no part in your own life? To me its about having the ability to choose to change your path. Even if what you are choosing is to care less! Is that free will? Yes probably. I think a good Psychic should be able to give you clear indication about where you stand but you have freedom to act and react as you want. You can choose to not do anything or stop being interested. Is that free will? I think it is and I think we all have that. So a Psychic can tell you how another person feels and lets you know about your options but its not set in stone what you will do. You can act or react in the situation as you want to. Thats my view.
