So the psychic told you exactly what would happen, in your future, or just used broad words to describe anything, while taking your money?

I used to believe the whole psychic stuff too, back in my naive days. HouseFever hit the nail on the head with the broad words comment. People generally want to believe and will attribute coincidental and otherwise insignificant events to the oh-so-vague predictions.
"There's a big change coming" - New job, promotion, new house, new partner, death of a loved one.
"Something concerns you" - Everyone has some worries in life, it's human nature.
"You've lost someone close to you" - Who hasn't?

Wow, my thousandth post is imminent. I need to start logging in from my laptop or tablet so that I can begin to communicate with you all in more depth. It's so much faff posting from a phone that my contributions tend to be short and sweet.
So, post 1000. Do I get a prize? Free drugs? :D

I just use my cards for myself at the mo. I find them quite revealing, Ive done some readings on myself that are accurate. They're less about telling you about what is going to happen in the future and more about guidance I think. Each to their own I say. I think some people have readings as a form of thereapy or counselling.
What I'm finding is when people know I'm learning they suddenly get a desire to have a reading done. Now, if they wanted a reading done that badly they'd sort it out for themselves. It's like any skill you have that someone else hasn't got, be it plastering or plumbing, freeloaders love a freebie. Especially with the arot, they don't realise that not only have I gone to the bother of buying my own cards, I have also invested my time in learning this skill and would then have to give time in doing a reading. But freeloaders love a freebie and they never see that your time is a resource. I have a mate who comes to my house and always does a see this want that on the most random of things that he couldn't possibly have been looking out for till he sees it there thinks it
s not in use and just wants it. I'm getting annoyed thinking about him to be honest, and I've always calmed down by the next time he comes round. Next visitation, we'll see.

I think it's very interesting, when it comes to tarot readings and things like that, the different ways in which people think. Some people still believe they're evil, some people, like you say, think you can give them an instantaneous reading and don't think that, that's your time you are giving away, some people think you're mental and what-not. I'm fascinated by different opinions and perspectives on the matter. Mine seem to change all the time. I believe there are the odd "psychics" who will use wording to make things that happen in the future appear like they have been telling you so - and when people are vulnerable and naïve this can be an extremely easy task. There are psychics who are real.
There are people, like yourself, who use tarot cards as a reading for "guidance" and not "to see what's in the future," there was a site that I once attended for a few years, where people would give readings of this nature. No "future readings" were allowed whatsoever, it was all on a guidance basis. Unfortunately I think the place is no longer around but it was nice to visit it at the time. They had classes of mediumship and so forth for £4 a month. I actually paid this though God knows why as I'm no medium but was fascinated in the stuff.
They all used to say I should be into philosophy as opposed to spirituality as I was always questioning things and I'd never let things lie and agree with them for the sake of it. Think I was banned eventually as they did not like this at all - I was told I was meant to have an open mind if things were to happen. But I find that extremely difficult. I like to question things. I like that there are never any real answers to certain things, only speculation and different perspective, that they can be debated but that there is no ever right or wrong.
Mind you, some people are very strongly opposed to beliefs of spirituality or religious (there's actually debates that religion and faith are two different things as, for instance, you could religiously sport a football team, whereas faith is to believe that something exists without actual evidence, for instance, God). Where was I? I told someone of my faith in God as this acted very strongly against this. Of course, this person had the right to their own opinion and differences of opinion is good as it makes us unique and makes the world go around (though I need to stop thinking others are attacking, when they are disagreeing with me), this person told me that I seriously needed help and was mentally ill because I believed in God and because I said I believed in the afterlife (which is faith, although somewhat hypocritical I find it extremely difficult to question the whole thing with God, though I respect that no everyone has the same faith/viewpoint as me re this and that is all good). But back to what I was saying, I find how strongly this person assumed that I had mental ill-health and needed to seek immediately help, because I had mentioned my faith in the afterlife, very fascinating and interesting indeed.
OK.... I've wrote a bloody novel again lol...

get yourself a deck of cards, I'm finding that it's a good hobby to take my mind off the gear. My son is a bit weary but he'd rather me messing with cards than crinkling foil.
I work with muslims and the young ones werte baffled when I said that I was holy but not religious. There's a branch of learning/study or whatever called theosophy. It's philosophy and spirituality combined. Personally, I don't think you can have -hilosophy without spirituality. Don't think there's much need for labels and arguments and boxes. I'll be into what I'm into. Just coz I believe one thing from one area of thought does not mean I have to embrace the whole thing and just because I dislike one facet of another system does not mean I have to discard everything from that system. I'll make up my own mind and do what suits me. Don't follow, don't lead. Don't worship or be worshipped.

Great way to be. Us humans have to have categories, sub-categories, labels and what-not to make sense of the world. That's why there's stereotypes etc and there always will be, no matter how much people try to stop it. It's the only way people know. There's studies that show that we actually categories things before we can actually talk. Fascinating stuff.
A mixture of spirituality and philosophy? Now that sounds fascinating stuff. There is a book I have about existential phenomenology which was interesting though I'll be honest I found a lot of it quite difficult to understand... but what I did read and understand, was interesting thinking...
Right - off to bed now... Nos da EADDers!

OK, not giving a standard, blind, expected Christian answer...
BUT, I've had considerable experience in mediumship and before being a Christian partook in similar guidance exercises to PP, which eventually aroused all sorts of trouble. You'll find to begin with they're very helpful, but this can lead you into dependence of them and they become addictive and harmful.
if you DO want a boring standardised Christian answer however, here are 3 relevent verses:
NSFW:
I find this statement worrying also, it reads as if you are replacing something bad in your life with something just as bad.
anyway, if you choose to ignore my advice (as I expect you will) and you do incur any worrying problems, PM box is always open.
