I was reading this blog post: Live Readings – Am I the only one with this problem?, asking about what a psychic should do when they see death or illness or other misfortune in a clients future. Here is my response:
I’ve only just joined Keen, so I’ve not had a chance to do much yet here, but I’ve been an “in person” psychic for years.
My problem? I see death. It’s a natural “gift”, I can’t plan on it or call it up or anything, it just BAM suddenly I see something about a person’s death. When I was a kid, like 3 or 4 years old, I used to run up to people (complete strangers) and tell them I saw them die. By the time I was 8 years old I was so terrified of adults I stopped talking. Why? Because I learned right quick that if there’s one thing you do not do, it’s walk up to a person and tell them how they are going to die! Some laugh, but other get really really angry.
The biggest problem comes though, not from the person you told, but from the people who over heard you say it. The people would die, in a similar way to what I had said, and people would remember what I had said and than give me hell (or call the police) and say that I had some how killed that person!
In my late teens, I had a drive by shooting and a serious of death threats sent to me and ended up requiring police protection for about 6 months, because some one at my church died after I said they would, and several members went total freak out and decided they had to kill me, before I, in their words: “put a death curse on any one else”.
Needless to say, 20 years later, I have learned my lesson and avoid negative psychic readings now. People are scared of psychics to begin with, so it’s best not to do or say anything to really terrify them. People come to a psychic terrified they’ll hear something bad, but hopeing their’ll hear something good.
But yeah, I hear you…doing phone readings is not an option I offer, because I like to take the time to carefully word my readings and soften the blow should something negative show up. I am strictly an in person and via email psychic. It’s too easy to just blurt out the wrong thing over the phone (at least for me).
Today many years and lessons later, I have learned that it is best to word psychic advice in the form of hopeful advice. If I see something bad, I point out to them that my Spirit Guides have shown me that there well be “a negative event” in their future, and than I will offer them tips on how to attract “positive energies” into their life, so that they can either change their future themselves thus avoiding the event or soften the blow of the event to make it easier for them to move past it.
In other words, rather than have them come away terrified of some dark event on the horizon, I try to have them go away with a feeling of hope and a sense that they are in control of their own destiny.
I make it my goal to always help people and provide them with a sense of hope regardless of what my Spirit Guides show me about their future. I think of it, as, we psychics are an alternative to Psychologists and Psychiatrist…we provide a form of Psychotherapy and people are coming to us, because they are in some sort of trouble as it is, they come to us seeking something to hope for, so it’s our job to give them a reason to look forward to waking up and greeting tomorrow.
