I used to have a deck of tarot cards that I kept on the car. I'd pick one at random every day and just read it (since it was like a fortune cookie and all had good advice.)

I stopped because one day I picked out "Death" and I go home to find out my cat got hit by a car. So... yeah. I don't know.

If you see a psychic, do not give them any personal information or answer vague questions. You should read this first before going to see one http://www.psychic-experiences.com/psychic-articles/genuine-fraud-psychi....

i went to the same psychic a few times, she did tarot. she was pretty good. i think there are a lot of fakes out there, though. one time, i took my abusive, cheating ex with me and she looked him dead in the eye and told him all about what kind of person he is and how he treats me and what would come of it. he left there with his blood just boiling, saying he did NOT like her, she'a quack, bla bla bla. he was pissed because one look at him and she had his number. he likes to think he's some big mystery, so he wasnt' happy that someone read him like a dr suess book in a matter of seconds. it was awesome!

I went to a psychic twice. Same lady both times, recorded the sessions. Amazing things she told me came true. She told me 2 distinct physical conditions that happened in the following 3 months. Not silly things like you will find love in 4 weeks with a tall handsome stranger. True serious life events.

Here is how it went: I brought 5 pictures (head shots) of my children, old boyfriend and brother and a random friend of my youngest child. I brought my car keys (had to be something only I would use). She held the keys and also asked for my earrings. She held them in her hand, rubbing them with her finger.

Ah....nevermind. I just erased a whole bunch of stuff. LOTS OF QUACKS out there! But yes, I've been and I'm a believer.

I once went ot a psychic just for shits and giggles, and she told me all about my great-great-grandfather whom I'd never met. Right down to a birthmark he had and the fact that he played organ at his church. I asked my grandmother about it later and she corroborated everything. It was creepy!

So yeah, there has to be somerthing to it. But there are also people who take advantage and have all sorts of tricks to lure people in and take their money.

She told me I would have a problem in my left breast, but it would be ok. 2 months later my husband found a lump in my breast, it was benign. First and last I've ever had (this was 17 years ago). She told me my left knee would require surgery, and not to put it off. Right after the breast lump, I tore my meniscus and had to have surgery. Never had trouble with either before or since.

She told me several of my male relatives, possibly husband and son but not positive, would be in a major accident on the way to Louisiana. 9 months later, husband and brother in law and nephew were in a major accident...in Louisiana. Son got sick, and did not go as planned. We live several states away from Louisiana, we have no ties to Louisiana, and had never been there.

The oddest thing she told me was, and I quote "I keep getting this in my head, I don't know why. I don't understand what it means. The furniture lady was right." Before I got married, while we were shopping for furniture, the lady furniture seller said..."Your marriage will never last." Needless to say we didn't buy furniture from her! And, indeed, the marriage did not last but 25 years. :sick:

Lots more she said, over a 2 hours in both sessions. Best money I ever spent. The air around this woman is just different. There is a buzzy, electric, on edge but soothing all in one fuzzy cold feeling. Like you are just on brink of....something....

I don't take it too seriously, but it is fun to dabble in.

I believe in astrology - I have a great lady that I have been going to for 5 years. She told me six months before my first DH was diagnosed with terminal cancer that I would lose something important to me and it would be the toughest couple years of my life. She and I both assumed it would be my dad since there were indicators that it would be a man in my life. When DH died I went to some psychic who claimed that she talked to dead people.

She also warned me about a dozen times NOT to marry my current DH (who I should have a divorce from any day now) - saying that it was like "putting myself into a blender and turning it on". lol! She also told me that my skids were uncertain about me but they now hate me and would for the next thirty years - so true. She even gave me the timeframe that they changed their minds - so true!

I guess it depends on who you go to.

Any of you guys ever read Sylvia Browne's books? If not, I recommend them. After the death of my father they gave me great comfort and I choose to believe what she says. I love tarot. I go to tarot.com regularly. You can pick from different decks and spreads. I would love to go to a professional though.
