J Camerlin asked:

1. How do you define a good psychic reading?

A good reading is defined as:

- combines accurate insight with practical advice

- fosters faith and inspiration from you

- encourages self-examination

- highlights your gifts and abilities

- respects your free will

2. What’s the difference between intuition and psychic ability?

Intuition is commonly thought of as a strong feeling, instinct, or gut reaction. Intuition is usually more accurate than we realize, but it can sound fuzzy or unclear like hearing someone talking in the distance. Everyone has intuitive feelings, but as a culture we’ve trained ourselves to ignore them.

Psychic ability is the refined use of intuition. It is more active and precise. Psychic insight requires you to focus your intuition without the distraction of random thoughts. This requires practice, trust and, very often, training.

3. What is the best way to test a Psychic?

Testing the psychic could be a bad idea for a number of reasons. First, if you put a negative intent on the reading from the beginning then you might just get negative results. Another reason is that you are wasting money and time- your time and the time and energy of the psychic.

There’s a many people going around playing “stump the psychic.” They only block their own reading, and defeat the purpose of the reading. A reading is a divine interaction between those in a search for truth. It works best in an atmosphere of love, trust, mutual respect, and sharing.

A good reader will be honest with you and tell you what they can and cannot do. They will try to give you the best reading they can, tell you the truths that they perceive. They will honor and respect you, and recognize the sacredness of your exchange with them.

4. How can I tell a real psychic from a phony psychic?

A real psychic will never ask you to say more than your question, your name, your birth date, and the names of people or places you are asking about. They will not request any other information from you. Should someone try to pump you for more information than those mentioned, then you know that they are not a legitimate psychic.

5. How will a phony psychic try to defraud me?

Usually a phony psychic pretends to see something that can be corrected with an “expensive” psychic cure! As an example:

- a fraud may say there is a curse over you, even though there is no such thing as a curse

- frauds may also say that your aura or chakras are blocked, and that they can unblock them with some “energy work”

- a fraud may also advise you to buy a candle to burn for an outrageous amount of money

- any psychic who claims to be 100 percent accurate is a definitely a fraud

6. How do recognize a scam when you hear one?

A large high percentage of scam artists posing as psychics, so it is advisable to know the signs when your reader may be questionable:

- the reader gives you vague answers

- the reader has a no refund policy

- there is no contact information available when online

- it is a new business with no references or testimonials

- the pricing is comparatively high to other psychics

Conclusion

So, are psychics real?

The number of fake psychics most likely out number the so called real psychics. As the old saying goes, “one bad apple to spoils the barrel.” However to answer this question, it all depends on who you talk to. As a personal note, my sister and niece have been to psychics and they’ve come back with some amazing stories about how the psychic revealed names and events that only my sister and niece would know.

You can look at it this way, if you are willing the pay a psychic for their services and you are satisfied with the results, then you just answered the question yourself.

Psychic intuition and self doubt and ego really do not go hand in hand thus creating conflicts, like the great armies of opposing forces, always ready to beat each other. Psychic intuition, your gut feeling your inner wisdom at work is what I believe is your soul trying to communicate to you, chat to you silently and instinctively to guide and protect you. Psychic intuition is always there within us, this subconscious knowledge that governs our lives on different levels; also it is at work every night while we are in a dream state at its pure form, this could be the reason to have very powerful dreams that tackles us when we are awake, asking ourselves what the dream meant. And the ego on the other hand is within us as well, these two great emotions or feelings, create conflicts that we tend to fall victim to, doubt and ego.

 

This great psychic intuition power that beckons us to learn and cultivate is like a compass that guides the sailor who is lost in the great oceans at night. It can be cultivated to use at will, by education by learning how to use our great allies such as gratitude, compassion, joy, happiness, laughter, intimacy, inspiration, relaxation, allowing time for self, meditation, through understanding, through respect to one another, reflecting love to our environment and to all those we share this planet with.

 

Ego and self doubt on the other hand our oldest enemy yet greatest conflict creator. Is like a force that always gets us down, ego is when we do nothing at all yet ask credit for achievements that we could otherwise get by following our psychic intuition. Words like I am better than; I am kind (yet with no contribute), I am helpful (yet no actions of such), I know it all, I am the best of such and such and many other examples of the feeling of selfishness.And self doubt is asking wrong questions in our minds, like can I do it, maybe I cannot accomplish it.

 

But our true nature intuitively, is like a baby who is just fed and laying warm in the arms of its mother. We adults too are living under the magical skies and the stars yet sometimes let our self or better yet not in touch with our true self as we like to be, for get this heavenly misunderstood power (psychic intuition) that beats with every heart beat, only comes out when we call for it and seek from within, especially when ego is winning buy bringing us down when we are overly using this feeling.

 

I believe of life to be just a feeling through experiences of our humanly senses ( touch, smell etc.) also when these senses are heightened on spiritual level and logic, then our psychic intuition is reflected out. The greatest battle won by the elimination of the unhelpful desires of self.

 

Being true to ourselves through self honesty, learning the signs and signals that come from within, learning to distinguish between those come from the within (soul) and of those come from ego. Our kind human friends and family or loved ones can do many things for us. But this one thing (cultivating and using our psychic intuition) only we can do for ourselves.
