» sacred_insights - What questions to as a potential reader.
In response to there is something worse than dying and going to hell posted by mollie4:I do post on my bolg about the common scams and you are right there are lots of con artists out there! If you want to read more about me or my thoughts on the industry you can go my suite profile or go to http://www.spiritualcat.com
Anyway, you can ask your prospective reader several questions.
What is your experience? How long have you been reading? (They should willingly tell you how long they have been doing readings and have references to offer.)
What are your thoughts on Spell Casting? (If they are into that stay away because they are after money and into ripping you off.)
What is the price of the reading and what do I get for that? (If they say it takes several readings for them to help you stay away. These are the ones who will try to suck you dry of your cash. The reader should tell you the kind of reading they do: clairvoyant, Tarot, Psychometry etc. They should also be able to tell you the kinds of information they get from spirit in a reading and also tell you if they offer readings in person, over phone, in online chat and in email and how each of these formats works.)
Reputable readers well:
1. Take the time to answer ALL your questions before you book the appointment.
2. Advise you of the cost of their services and what these services include before you book or as you begin the session. And these prices will not change once you are there!
3. Allow you to ask questions as you go along during the reading.
4. Allow you to direct the reading with your questions or the area of focus you would like to have the reading take.
5. Record the sessions for you or allow you to take notes.
6. Allow you to stop the session and cancel payment if you are not happy with the session as long as you let them know before the end of the session. Most honest readers know when a reading is not going well for some reason and will usually stop the reading themselves and advise the seeker to find another reader and offer to assist them in some other way if possible. If you stop the session the reader keeps their tape and you keep your money and that is that.
Whenever you are going for a psychic reading you have the right to be comfortable. You also owe it to yourself not to leave you common sense behind. Go with your gut! If something feels wrong it usually is!
Hope that helps!
Cat

- Love You Deeply
I went to a counselor for a year - it was one of the smartest things I've ever done! It was the most painful, too. Is the therapy helping?

Ahhhh Melissa
I empathize with you. I felt like you did, and then my doctor actually told me that I was dying. That was six years ago, and although I struggle every day with chronic pain, anxiety and depression, I am indeed more alive today than ever before.(my prognosis has been changed)
I would like to share a gift with you. Have you ever heard the John Denver song, Rhymes and Reasons? Look up the lyrics at the very least, but if you are fortunate enough to download it or own it, the effect is very cathartic, ever shed tears of joy????
I pray that everyone can find the peace I have found in myself this holiday season. Don't stop looking for your answers. My mother actually held me and told me she loved me for the first time in my 45 years of existence, so you see miracles do truly happen if you work hard enough and never give up or give in.
If anyone would like more info on coping skills esp. pertaining to spiritual health, I would love to chat with anyone who needs a friend in Spirit right now. I send all a great big hug and unlimited unconditional love and joy during this difficult season,especially for those of us that are suffering.
BTW Melissa...I love you deeply and unconditionally....me and others.
Live, Learn, Love and Laugh Always

In response to there is something worse than dying and going to hell posted by SpiritWarrior:
I appreciate your post, mostly because I had a similar experience with a psychic healer about 2.3 years ago, but instead of refraining from telling me what she allegdly perceived she told that there was a possibility of a negative outcome. I could only hear the part with the possibility of a negative outcome and she never explained anything. I had 1.3 years of severe panic and anxiety attacks following that.
Another year later I am still superanxious and obsessing about this.
Fear of dying has been however present since I became a teenager. Yes I was dealing with some anxiety all of my life mostly social anxiety and fear of flying.
I have been off and on searching the web for other people who had similar experiences with psychics, but really did not find anything. And then today I stumbled upon this forum.

Thanks, I appreciate your reply. I would have never believed how much the words of another person can hang on to you until it happened. I was wondering for a long time why this happened. And now I believe my quest is to find myself and to trust myself and the creator who brought me forth. And not to forget the fun part: to enjoy life and myself in the process. So your answer fits right in.
