Recently written by thevarsity.cam, writer Daniele Klein has her fortune read by a professional Tarot Card Reader and things get a little spooky…

By Daniele Klein

I peered in through the glass of the psychic’s door, genuinely expecting a combination of Professor Trelawney and Jafar from Aladdin; perhaps she would be donning a long, flowing orange skirt, or sporting gray hair with the unruliness of a recently electrocuted cartoon character. The exaggerated Hollywood figure that I conjured up in my mind did not, however, bear any resemblance to the disappointingly normal-looking woman who let us in.

Genuine curiosity and superstition prompted me and my friend to make an appointment with a psychic. When phoning the psychic I could barely contain myself asking whether or not she had been sitting by the phone, knowing in advance that I would call.

Astrology and tarot have always intrigued me, and shamefully, I receive my daily astrological forecast in my email and count one or two Virgo-themed Twitter accounts among my feed. On any given day, I can usually tell you whether or not the moon is in my sign.

My friend and I had done intensive Googling (page one only) to come up with questions to ask the psychic. The great minds of various psychic-themed message boards advised us to ask open-ended questions to allow for wide-ranging answers. We wrote our questions by coming up with basic concepts that we would want to know about: career, finances, education, romance, and, for good measure, contact with deceased relatives.

With our questions scrawled on a cue card, we climbed the stairs to the psychic’s office, which was not draped in dark curtains and did not feature a prominently displayed crystal ball. Our psychic’s office was rather like any other office, except for some tarot cards that were tacked onto the wall. So far, we weren’t sensing any overwhelming supernatural energy or seeing the cliché trappings of a psychic, to our disappointment.

The psychic handed me a deck of thick, large tarot cards and asked me to shuffle them. I can’t emphasize the heaviness of these cards. I have never been a skilled card player, and even at my best, shuffling a deck of cards isn’t my strong suit (pardon the pun), which is why I have no explanation for my sudden decision to try to get fancy in shuffling these cards. My attempt at a bridge was sad, and the psychic watched my clumsy try at impressing her with an air of superior ambivalence. After a painfully prolonged minute or so, I finally gave up, having not even successfully moved one card, and sheepishly went about mixing up the cards using a more graceful, if unimpressive, strategy.

The psychic, unfazed, took the cards back, spreading them all out before me and having me pick five. I tried to let instinct guide me, though instinct coincidentally happened to lead my hands to cards distributed at fairly equal distances from one another from left to right.

The psychic then laid out the cards with four forming a rectangle and one overlapping the inward corners in the centre. Now I could ask my questions, and the answers, it seemed, were in the cards. Shockingly, our Google research failed us as the psychic advised me on my first question that I was being too vague. So I altered, “Can you tell me about my future career?” to “What will my future career be?”

Presently, it turns out, I am not on the correct path. I need to learn more and take more courses. In two years (rather conveniently upon my graduation), I will figure it out — but the psychic didn’t answer my question, so I’ll be waiting until 2013 to have that information. I do know that I was “born to help others,” and thankfully I will “always be financially independent.”

The psychic was surprisingly therapeutic. Although she was offering predictions for the future, she framed her fortune-telling in suggestions about the ways I am presently limiting myself. She did provide specific information. Looking me in the eye, she asserted, “You will meet your partner in the year 2014.” I involuntarily chuckled, but she plainly clarified, “It’s in the cards,” with a knowing smile.

By my final question, I was feeling confident and decided to go for a question in the realm of the supernatural; the psychic advertised that one of her specialties is communication with the dead. I asked about a dead relative of mine and if I could possibly communicate with them. She confidently responded, after reading the array of cards, “She is very close by to you at all times, and she hears your thoughts.”

By now, I was spooked. The psychic’s close reading of the tarot cards was eerily accurate as she described my insecurities and preoccupations. Her pragmatic style of interpretation and her confidence as she relayed the contents of my future to me were disarming and hair-raising.

The reading was very brief, and the speed at which she interpreted the cards was simultaneously impressive and frustrating. I wanted to stop her and ask her to slow down and explain her thought process to me. How does the card of “swiftness” in combination with the card of “temperance” mean that I will always be financially independent?

But she was very clear when she was done answering a question, and she was not going to say anything further.

My brief, bizarre glimpse into the paranormal psychic trade ended abruptly after my final question. At the end of my reading, she eerily wished me “Good luck,” managing to sound both ominous and encouraging.

For skeptics and for the superstitious alike, visiting the psychic is at least thrilling. The accuracy of my nondescript psychic’s predictions for my future will be seen in two years if I find my career, or in three years, if I happen to fall madly in love. But for the present, she offered sound advice and exact descriptions that left me with fortune-telling fever.

I may not have met the eccentric, musky medium of my imagination, but the experience was nonetheless supernatural. With my future roughly scheduled and my ability to communicate with the dead confirmed, I left the psychic’s office perplexed, curious, and relieved that I was not alerted to my imminent death or inevitable failure in life. I can at least consider that much a victory for the future (and present) me.

Recently reported by monstersandcritics.com, Amy Winehouse has spoken from beyond the grave, according to a celebrity psychic Kimberly Padula – who claims to work with some of Tinseltown’s biggest names.

New Yorker Kimberly Padula’s claims come as a coroner determined that the tragic star drank herself to death.

Padula, who says that she is on the payroll of some of Hollywood’s most influential people, claims that she contacted Winehouse in September, two months after the Rehab singer died at the age of 27.

Talking about “going into” Winehouse’s body, she says: “I got her suffocating. I got her not breathing. There was [alcohol], for sure. I don’t get foul play, though.”

Padula also shockingly claims the London-born star blames herself for her demise, saying that she had a “death wish” and that, although she didn’t kill herself, she had considered suicide at times.

“She’s saying it’s her own fault [that she died],” the 37-year-old says. “She’s not blaming anybody. She’s saying she wasn’t strong enough…

“Her poor little heart couldn’t take it anymore. Her body was so f***** up, weak, deficient, not healthy at all. Anaemic. Not eating. Super-weak. Emaciated.

“It wasn’t fun how she died. It happened quickly, though. It wasn’t a long thing… She just stopped breathing.”

Padula says that she could see Winehouse’s face, as she allegedly communicated with the dead star and that – despite her short life – she is at peace and she suspects that her grandmother “helped her over”.

“Relieved is what I’m hearing,” she says when asked if Winehouse is happy. “She’s happy that her family’s taken care of now.”

What do you think, did a Psychic contact Amy Winehouse on the other side? Be sure to leave a comment.

Anyone who has been in a long term relationship knows that it is no picnic, but what many people often don’t understand is the difference between couples who stay together and those that breakup is a willingness to “work” at their relationship and work through difficulties.

It’s been said time and time again — communication, openness, and sharing your feelings is crucial in marriage. After all, if your spouse doesn’t know what’s bothering you, how can you expect them to understand and work with you to arrive at a compromise? Couples counseling can be very beneficial in helping couples learn how to speak and listen to each other more effectively.

4 Reasons Why Couples Seek Counseling:

1. Disagreements Over Money

One of you may be a compulsive shopper who can’t resist new shoes or the latest electronic gadget, while the other may only shell out cash for food, bills, and other necessities. These conflicting views on money can lead to frequent disagreements. The economic downturn and rising fears of unemployment have added to many couples’ financial stresses.

Couples counseling can help people get to the root of their money problems. Therapists can help couples find out the underlying reason behind someone’s excessive spending or hording money, work through any trust issues behind a reluctance to set up a joint account, and deal with emotional issues related to losing a job.

2. Cheating Partner

Frequent fighting or general unhappiness in a relationship can cause one or both partners to have an affair. When the affair is discovered, the betrayed spouse wonders how to go on in the relationship, and if they will ever be able to trust their partner again.

With professional help, partners will be able to come together in neutral territory to discuss the circumstances that lead to the infidelity. Finding out the fundamental cause for the affair can go a long way toward mending that mistake and rebuilding trust in each other.

3. Lack Of Romance Or Sex

As the years go by, long work hours, kids, and even weight gain can lead to less romance and sex. One or both partners may begin to feel neglected, which often leads to them drawing away from their spouse and wondering why their sex life isn’t what it used to be. But this reluctance to talk about the issue needs to be replaced by having a discussion about it.

Here’s another place where communication is essential. Even with your spouse, sex may be awkward to talk about, especially if the conversation is about a lack of sex. But sex and romance is a vital part of marriage and are worth discussing in hopes of regaining that intimacy. Many couples go through dry spells, and it’s perfectly normal. Through couples counseling, partners can explore the issues behind their lack of intimacy and work on a plan to regain that spark.

4. Disagreements Over Raising Children or Having Children

To put it bluntly, kids are stressful. And not just raising them, but all the stuff that comes before they’re even born: deciding to have them, how many, possibly experiencing infertility, talking about how to discipline them… and then once they’re born, the 3 AM feedings, financial strain of raising them, and everyday stresses that kids bring to the table like loudness, getting into trouble… the list is endless.

These important decisions and stressful situations can test even the strongest relationship. Couples counseling can help couples work together to make these nerve-racking choices, and address psychological issues that may stem from one or both partner’s childhood that are affecting the decision of having or raising children.

There are many reasons why couples end up in couples counseling. But a couple that’s willing to participate in couples counseling has a better chance of surviving than a couple that neglects their issues in hopes of resolving them on their own or walking away completely.

Psychic Readings Link to Spiritual Growth has to be one of the more interesting features of having a reading.

When we have a reading, it has to do with the energies that are everywhere in the universe. We can always say that it is because of some unknown thing. Well that is exactly what it is.

If we don’t believe in spiritual growth then you are probably wasting your time getting a reading in the first place. When we do believe that there are powers greater than ourselves we can grow spiritually. What happens is that we have to experience this for ourselves. I can always say that there is something but you don’t have to believe.

When Psychic Readings Link to Spiritual Growth it is always something that means we are expanding our knowledge. The more that we know, the more informed opinions that we can make. We can always say that we are making a decision on what we know but if there are other things that we don’t know how can we say that.

Spiritual growth is linked to psychic readings by the powers of the universe. There is psychic energy everywhere and it actually our own personal beliefs that make us accept the things that happen in our lives. When I have a closed mind it is really not doing me any good. If I keep my mind open to growth a lot of good can happen to us.

When Psychic Readings are Linked to Spiritual Growth is happening it is one of the profound things that can happen to you. It is something that you are not looking for it just happens without your knowledge. It is one of the things that happen a psychic is can give you without asking.

With growth comes responsibility. You can always give it away to anyone that you care to. We need to share things like spiritual growth. That comes with expanding your personal and spiritual horizons. When you share you are letting someone else get the benefit of the knowledge of your experience.

When readings are linked to spiritual growth all kinds of good things can happen. You can be rewarded with gifts that can only come from a power greater than ourselves. It can come as a financial gift, It can be materialistic such as a new car, or it can even be something like finding a new love. The rewards can be many.

When Psychic Readings are Linked to Spiritual Growth the thing that we always to remember is to be thankful for whatever you receive. When I have something that is given to me I always have to remember that I didn’t have it in the first place.

A clairvoyant or psychic ability is seen as a spiritual gift but did you know that we can all develop these powers and unlock our own potential with the right training and a little determination. Discover for yourself what these powers are and how to awaken your inner abilities.

What is a Psychic?

A psychic is a person who is believed to possess extra sensory perception and is regarded as a highly intuitive individual. A psychic is used as a source to help provide information about the future. A clairvoyant is a person who is believed to have the ability to clearly see objects or events that cannot be perceived by the senses. A clairvoyant can help you gain perspective so you will be able to see and think things through more clearly.

Psychic Ability

A clairvoyant or psychic ability is seen as a spiritual gift and there are ways we can all develop these powers and unlock our own potential. Have you ever considered whether you have a psychic gift? Did you realise absolutely anyone can develop psychic powers and latent psychic abilities with the right information, training and of course determination, dedication and commitment.

Do you have times when you think about someone you haven’t seen in a long time and then you suddenly bump into them? Do you have dreams that often come true? Do you know who’s ringing you before you answer the phone? Each and everyone of us possesses a degree of psychic ability, often without even realising it. Most of us call upon our intuition on a daily basis to tell us about a situation or a person. Using your ‘gut feelings’ can be a wise move and more often than not those hunches turn out to be 100% correct. When we learn how to utilize these powers fully, we can use them to give us a first class advantage when it comes to getting what we want in life.

Don’t let anyone tell you that you have to be special or gifted to enjoy the benefit of psychic powers; it simply is not true. The unfortunate fact is that most of mankind in modern society has come to rely on material things, thereby turning its back on our true Spiritual reality, and therefore these abilities have long been forgotten. However, forgotten does not mean lost.

Your natural psychic potential still exists as strongly as ever, simply lying dormant waiting to be awakened, developed and exercised. Once awakened, as with any ability, the more you use your psychic ability the stronger it becomes.

One of the secrets to success in developing psychic powers is a profound belief that they work. You have vast psychic potential that will enable you to enjoy a wide range of valuable abilities, but it is so important to start on the right foot and get the right training.

Developing Psychic Powers

Developing psychic powers, as with any inner ability, should be a very serious and extremely rewarding process, not something that ends with disillusionment.

In the past, the real knowledge required to develop your own genuine psychic powers, has only been known to a very few people who have used it to their own powerful advantage. Once you have developed your Psychic Powers you will want to continue to develop your natural abilities.

To discover how to develop your own Psychic Powers such as these and many more, easily in the comfort of your own home visit my website, Clairvoyants Today which is packed with all the information you need.

You can discover how absolutely anyone can develop psychic powers and latent psychic abilities with the right information, training and of course determination, dedication and commitment.
