I did meditate over the candle and focus my intention over it as best I could. I don't feel I know enough about that sort of stuff to really practice it well. I only tried it for the life span of one votive candle and I did get contact not too long after it burned out. Could have just been a coincidence though. I never did try another candle. Quite honestly, if I felt I really needed it done I would certainly let an expert like AV do it for me.

So I tried Rivette on a whim. She was on line and I used my 3 free minutes and added a few extra minutes. Worst. Call. Ever. That's all I'm going to say. Didn't really get an answer either way. So I guess that's the universes way of telling me to stop. I don't regret it. I'm sort of like, whatever, about it. So moving on with my day, I'm off to run errands and forget I ever made that phone call.

For me, I can write and know exactly how I want the scene to play out. Yet, when I attempting to type it, it's just my mind suddenly goes semi-blank and I can't produce what I'm trying to achieve. I didn't used to be this way and writing would come naturally to me. I do have my moments when I can write a certain amount of words without pausing to think, but it's rare lately. This started back in 2010, it's just my mind has been foggy when it comes to writing ever since. Writing is my passion and I want to work towards publishing my books in the future, but this foggy mind and writer's block has worsen over the years. I really needed something to help, because I've tried everything I could think of lol.

If you don't mind me asking, did you at least get the closure you wanted?


Aww Proxy I can totally relate to creative blocks. I spent years doing art from graphic design to make-up artistry, but I lose my passion for it at one point. So I started to examine what attachments existed and went to work on them. Have you tried recording what is in your head and maybe listening to it when you're relaxed?

What ended up happening with him, around the end of September I wished him a Happy B-day because our first date I promised I would remember his bday and he promised to remember mine. It was a random text that lead to a conversation. He said I checked off so many things on his list but didn't feel a strong enough connection to me, which is what I felt about him. When we met it was around the time my best friend passed away so I wasn't able to open up to anyone. He wished me a Happy Bday and while on the phone I got an email from American Airlines with tickets out west. He bought tickets for me to visit him (I'm on the east coast). While out there we really didn't connect and in the end he asked if I would be ok with being a "playmate". That was my closure, we never talked again and I'm totally find with it lol.

Sorry that call didn't go well I was coming back to the board to tell you not to do it - since readings are such a slippery slope! Her reviews on bitwine are very hit and miss and based on our reviews for readers, I think the only ones we've both mutually connected with have been AV and MSDream.

Wow, I had to re-read a lot of messages there, lol.

Anyway, I am sorry for those who thought they were duped by Eby or anything. I don't really know - but so far, his predictions are working for me.

I never encountered that " 3rd party issue and fading away thing with Eby at all " He did mentioned about living together but.. me and my man did talked about living in together so it was really no surprised for me.

A contact on my birthday - is something only Eby have predicted - some of the good psychics I know, including Lidia was off saying it would take the guy a week or after befor the contact - so that was really off. Even DLD who is usually correct - was off in the prediction regarding this.

Eby was the only one who got it right for me. He also made a prediction of.. there will be "every day progress starting November once he got back from the trip, I'll get to know the difference how this plays out" - I was honestly skeptical since I don't think It will ever go that way..

But alas - a 360 degrees turn - it did turned out that way and there were progress everyday! I am getting to know more of the guy's feelings and intentions for me, and more things are unfolding as he says.

Not that I am defending Eby or anything.. I was a reader, too... there was one time I felt so sad because I feel that maybe my readings have been off.. I consulted my mentor about this and I temporarily had to stop doing readings.. I felt that I was saying the same thing with people who are paying me - that didn't made me feel good.

She told me this: You didn't lie to them, right? It is simply what you have picked up. Everyone encounters the same experiences, same issues, same struggles. We all have similarities - there are just different per situation and circumstances but it is most likely in the same route.

Not that I am defending Eby or anything but I do know there are things he has picked up that.. he couldn't have just known by guessing or reading some random general prediction of a horoscope and what not. I guess we all get to be doubtful from having so many readings with different psychics. There is still a possibility that... you and someone else are having quite a similar issue at hand. We can't really say anything else unless things have come to pass - if its wrong, and nothing he says comes true then maybe - you can say he might be playing around but if you felt connected and yet things really didn't happen yet.. I think let's just set things aside before we make our complains and assume he is just a script reader.

Those are just my thoughts. (Plus, he has almost 300 reviews - if he has only been doing script readings then I guess almost 300 people had the same experiences? Lol! No one even complained - everyone felt connected - some even shared their predictions, etc.. it's still too early to say unless you have witness that things were really off - I guess that is just what I really wanted to say.)

I think we also should practice asking the right thing we want to know when we go for a reading. I think we all should clearly know the purpose why we are paying for a reading - is to get clarity towards the situation - and maybe a prediction or two of what you can expect and what might happen in the near future, etc...

Not to know if the psychic is legit or not - I feel you should be aware if he/she is during the connection part before the reading itself or anything. When you are in a reading with a reader - you'll just know if there is a connection...

First of all, a person should NOT feel like they're supposed to just KNOW they're talking to a psychic- especially non-magic folk. That's not even fair to suggest. That's why we have reviews in the first place.

If we wanna take THAT stance, the second I heard about this guy I said he was a scam.

If 5 people got the exact same reading, he's a scam. My *ulls*it detector went off immediately. That doesn't mean that everybody is supposed to just know. We are shooting the victim with THAT nonsense. I certainly take offense to that.

Yes, I have tried that! I used to either outline my chapters by typing them, or if an idea came to me in the middle of the night, I'll voice record it so I wouldn't forget and listen back to it the next time I'm writing. Is that what you meant?

Ah, I see Well at least you did get the closure that you were hoping for!


Also, btw, as a side note, I just realized something AV told me and I've already gotten clarity about one thing she and I spoke about and she replied back. However, something else came to mind that she mentioned and it confused me and I don't understand it and I sent her an email about it, but she never responded back. Should I just schedule an appointment with her to ask if she doesn't respond back?

Just a thought re scammers. This forum is public and, from what I've read, some Bitwine/Keen/whatever (can't remember) readers have come here to defend themselves. Isn't it within the realm of possibility, then, that a reader knows some details because s/he's recognized you from your forum posts?

Just as an example: I am a scammer and I know, from A's forum posts, that A gets a lot of readings on B. I also know--from the same posts--that A and B live in different states and that B might be seeing someone else. What I also know is that A is apparently considering getting a reading from me today. So, when a girl calls me later today and asks about someone whose name starts with a B, I ask her--to confirm the "connection"--if B lives in a different state. And bam... she's thrilled we have connected! I then tell her he's seeing someone else, but the influence is fading, blah, blah... She's happy with the reading, will call again and recommend me to friends/on the forum. When I'm later completely wrong about someone else's situation/A's situation... that person and I just did not connect/A and I just didn't connect this time--my credibility is not too damaged (yet).

Ok, maybe a bit convoluted (and certainly unethical--but I've seen some more shocking stuff) but not impossible. "My" livelihood depends on client satisfaction, so you bet I'm going to check reviews/general psychic threads on different forums.

That occurred to me when I realized anyone I'd call and explain my situation to could pretty easily recognize me if they stumbled upon my LL post about my weird sort-of obsession...

You do strike a very interesting statement there. I never thought about that before until now. Makes you wonder who has been "lurking" the threads, lol.

Well we all know readers do come here and read what we post. I can't say a reader would come here to really scam like that but they do come here to read what we say. Don't you all remember Jonah?

it depends on how long of a time they took to connect- you cant always remember everyone instantly, so they have to have some file archived somewhere but whata re the chances we're using the same username as we do here? (I do obviously, but I tend to pay for readings with another acct and less with my name here)

and msheart: no worries, I always go for 'innocent until proven guilty' besides you can see from reviews- many people aside from spiritualone said prediction happens, are they all scams/plant too? that gave me benefit of doubt, personally.

but each to their own

peacefulclouds, that's why I said it's kind of farfetched. Still, if I had no actual gift, I'd definitely have notes on what a sitter has told me so far and on at least some likely customers (e.g., those who seem to may be trying out new psychics a lot--which I guess means I'd keep track of most people on this thread, myself included). Just a regular client database (e.g., some professionals--or their secretaries, lol--keep track on what fruit/chocolates each client seems to like, when their birthday/due date is, and stuff like that). Obviously, the issue of different names still remains, but if you give the reader enough background info (and some ask for it, and the "uninitiated" lol give it pretty easily)... (Or maybe I just have a freakish memory. )

Now, I'm not saying this has actually happened to anyone here. (Especially as I guess many scammers would be too lazy to make a large database--if they're scamming people by giving them ******** psychic readings, they're looking to make a quick buck and will move on to the next scam (or just a new psychic name) soon enough.) I'm just procrastinating... lol

Yes, indeed. I remember Jonah. I spent some good money with him. He also gave me free time. Was he accurate for you? I had another psychic who revealed my real name and other things on here it was a complete utter mess, even was told I would be sued! It has been taken off but there is no telling who saw the info before it was.

I did try Jonah twice. He even read for me for free once. It was a follow up question and he answered it for free. One of his predictions came to pass while the other never did. I never was able to follow up with him because he stopped going on bitwine.

I honestly don't think it's that hard for readers that give cold readings (or tell you want to hear) to get good reviews. When I first started out I was going for contact predictions. If a reader told me I'd hear from the guy in 2-3 weeks and I did - I'm sure I left a review saying "prediction passed!!" (I cringe now, but live and learn, right?) So while reviews are great, I trust the experiences and reviews left here far more than the ones left on the actual sites.

When I found out that David James gave the SAME reading to multiple people here, I felt like such a fool. It sounded legit at the time and I guess that's how they work - saying things that seem unique or seem to fit our situations, while being incredibly general at the same time. And even still, I think others had success with him.

I tried him too. Two predictions came to pass out of three (the third he said would happen in November so we'll see if that happens).

Well, for all the ones that are waiting for a prediction to come to pass always remember to be patient and live your days out as you normally would. No matter what happens in life, you have to remember to be positive, even when things don't seem to be going your way, or how you want it to, doesn't mean the world is over. I've come to realize this over the past couple of days.

So, everyone in this thread is in my prayers. I believe that the best has yet to come and it will come when you least expect it! Just don't lose faith, don't give up hope. Believe and you shall receive
