You give me some inspiration though that I'll get out.

I believe we have purpose and that is our destined path, but we can stray so much that we never got to that path in the first place.

there's a reason why not all of us have a 'gift', because often we do not know what to do with such information. Perhaps the best way is to use it as guidance rather than predictor, but of course with the widely available resources, we often use it as a quick fix.. for validation.

I also see the vast differences between the application of psychic readings in east asia & the west. In the west, it's seen as a commercial product. Either it works, or it doesn't and it's offered in bite-sized pieces with wide array type of services (even packages lol)

In Asia, people generally don't go to them very often due to price or availability, and often I find they give you full reading, or answers some of your pressing questions and there you go "whatever the information you get is for your own guidance and discretion."

For me, often the word destiny is used by many people as a ticket to get off responsibilities. Maybe often we're not meant to find out our destiny unless we're ready in the first place, mentally and spiritually. Not saying psychic readings are bad, I think they can be really good, but it really depends on the mindset of the reader and receiver.

Seems like any product or tools, they can't work 100% exactly of the time, there's some effort needed to wield them very well or even professionally e.g: A fruit knife can be used to cut fruits, or to create a beautiful watermelon statue.

I would say, 70% of the psychic readings I got actually manifested- except the 'big' prediction (love) but I won't call it a fraud. I was surprised on how much they got many predictions right in the first place- way more than I ever thought possible.

Most career prediction manifested, as well as family related ones- perhaps because I have less attachment to those and allowing myself to be open with the outcome (not waiting) and actually keep working regardless.

Most romance-related prediction manifested (specific people) except the 'big' ones. But I know I often mess it up because I acted certain way and very attached to the outcome. Took me a very long time to realize my ego gets in the way, and had to take a good look on what I actually wanted- is it the person, or to satisfy my own ego of being right/special to that certain someone? Is it love? Real love? Or ego love? Is it really unconditional? Can -I- actually unconditionally love? Am I ready for that kind of love? or I just wish for romantic companionship love? What do I really seek from all of these?

1. they are not good enough, i think they get mixed signals. i really think only few of them are that good.
2. some people or some issues just leave footprints in our life; they are not suppose to create significant impacts. i think for these footprints; it is not easy to read; because they must be very blur and very mixed.

I've had a psychic get scary accurate for me years ago and a friend
But she got someone else way off but the girl never took the advice and none of it happened
Therefore pretty much proving even the best can only predict a guess if things don't change energy wise

This sentiment can be applied to any profession. A world renowned doctor can correctly diagnose some and misdiagnose others doesn't make them a bad doctor, makes them human...similarly if the patient doesn't follow advice of course the outcome will be different once again this doesnt make the doctor bad or non existent

Of course the only think gin saying if is there is only destiny then they would not get it wrong continually.
Watching the forums I think on love readings there is a 30 percent success rate
That's being on the generous side maybe

From my own personal experience and reading the forum I think when it comes to love readings the majority of the psychics are a hindrance more than anything.

In situations where it would be better to help move on from the person/relationship (because lets be honest no one asks for a reading when things go well... so if it's bad maybe it's not right)the psychics give false hope of a rosy future and just make the person stuck.

And actually for love/relationship readings I prefer going to a male reader. I find they are more likely to give you a tough but honest answer. A male reader is more likely to say 'No, this isn't a good relationship for you, move on' whereas a female reader would say something like 'He is into you but he has issues/he's afraid/he's insecure and you need to give him more time/patience/support... blah blah blah'.

I think those kind of fluffy readings really hurt us because instead of realizing that maybe X was only meant to be in our lives for a short while (teach us something whatnot) and then we were suppose to meet Y, a more serious relationship. We get stuck on X, and the readers tell us it can work out with X, and we waste time and energy thinking about X and waiting for it to work out... only it doesn't and meanwhile it will take us longer to meet Y...

So my belief when it comes to destiny is - we are destined to meet X & Y. However, it's our freewill when we get stuck on X and don't move on. So even though it's destined for us to meet Y our freewill and inability to let go prevented us from meeting Y (a more suitable guy) a lot sooner...

Just my 2 cents..

I totally agree with this. I think it (false hope) keeps us holding on far longer than is appropriate.

Personally, I feel that if you are asking the same questions over and over, repeating the same patterns, rather than spend money on readings a life coach would be a better investment. Even when we are given a reality check, we believe whatever we want to believe (usually what our emotionally based needs lean towards) and eschew logic. In reference to "lessons", if you're meeting the same man in a different shell, handling yourself the same way in the same situation but with a different person, then isn't that a wake up call for introspection?

I disagree that a psychic should tell you your lesson, or life path. That is for your discovery. You can ask if you are on a good path to achieving whatever it is you want, but most of the time when you ask,"What am I supposed to learn?" Are you truly ready to accept the answer and learn that lesson or are you looking for a rationalization to reinforce your current actions and thought patterns. People change when they are ready to, not because someone tells you to. Once again, you are responsible for your own happiness. If someone is making you question your self worth, that's toxic. Do you really want that in your life?

As far as types of readers, it depends on the type of reading you're looking for. Then still, it depends on the connection the reader has with you.

100% Agree.

I agree with what Psyche is saying...a lot of the psychics I've had readings with...they have a gift for sure but I haven't met anyone who has been that accurate for me...I feel a lot of it is guesswork.

For example, I had a reading with Beverly Ann and she was very accurate in picking up some things. For business she saw that I would get a lot more hours because my boss was coming to where I was. This was true and it happened - but I already knew this because the trip was planned when I had the reading with her. Also for business, she saw a massive enquiry come in through a school. The enquiry came in but I never got the business. She saw me being presented with an opportunity to go to Bali for something work-related. I told her outright this seems impossible. I do not have any work in Bali. And later on I found out my boss went to Bali but what did that have to do with me? Nothing. Somehow her cards picked him up and perhaps she interpreted it as something to do with me. My love reading with her was so off though - I never met anyone new and no one from the past contacted me - although she was accurate in picking up that he was very far away from me physically.

AV's prediction for love for me did not come true although I had a follow up and she says she still sees it happening. For business, it was funny - I gave her a few dates I had for enquiries - one of them came true and the other two was up in the air and she said there could be delays because of an illness. I did fall sick that week but it had nothing to with the situation - the enquiries I had did not turned into business. So her cards were accurate to an extent.

I will still read with AV once in blue moon because she is very genuine and I like talking to her.

So my 2015 resolution is to live life and stay away from readings! Most of them are not accurate for me. No more false hopes!

if used as guidance they can be useful and then we need to be careful who we go to, ive had readers come to me who are far far from none judgmental and evolved souls and that will come through in the reading as their own stuff cant help but be intertwined with the reading.

Besides, having psychic abilities does not mean they are evolved as a person either, they have their own paths/karma to clear themselves.

I give guidance in cards I won't give set predictions only possibilities but the biggest guidance is healing and aligning to source but sometimes it's good to be shown ourselves from the outside perspective

I love Lidia her advice always works for me if I get into my ego a little and need a second opinion from someone I don't knowZ.

@Fairy, I honestly don't know, the best reading I had the reader used a plain deck of cards but she was also clairvoyant.
I had years ago a reader using an egg and water... Surprisingly there was accurate stuff... Lol

Actually this I'm not 100 percent sure on. I think certain people are set to come into our lives because they have very similar energy wounds and help us to heal.
How long we stay in the cycle, and connected I feel is a mix of our thoughts and how long it takes us to grow and heal and raise up in energy. We can only attract people who resonate off our energy so if we have grown they can have no option but to not stay in our life or change with us. I think when we are stuck in karmic cycles there is some level of 'destiny' because we are healing
To me karma is patterns we need to clear and negative thinking based on past patterns.

I feel when we are 'whole' and 'healed' standing in our truth and at zero point we have a lot more free reign to create not just step through destiny.

So say for example I need to heal abandonment issues I will continually attract the lessons and there are probably certain ppl with that vibration we can meet and experience interactions with to grow. How long it takes us is probably free will since the universe knows no time

It's why moving on is pointless without getting to grips with working on your core issues and energy alignment
