well i guess i got a positive story for you, Because before my experience with a psychic Medium I was a complete SKEPTIC, who diddnt really believe in ghostly spirits or apparations (obviously my view has since been changed because of this experience)
But the first time my heart got broken, the first dead body i ever saw, the first funeral i ever went to, and the last time I cried for any female/woman to ever leave me was my own Mother at the age of 13.
It completly changed my life forever, and because of here decisions, i let my own self worth diminish..... but on to the psychic experience!
I was about 17, four years after the death of my mother, was still very sensitive on the subject, and I actually just learned/found out from my Aunty/Godmother how bad my mother was suffering prior to completion of her self destruction, And basically learn how she put her parents.... my grand parents, into bankruptcy, and the huge burden my mother was carrying that lead her to the psyche-ward for her first attempted suicide....... to sum it all up, i pretty much got to find out how fucked up my life REALLY was, in the rawest most brutally honest way i could have heard it.
Now i was under the impression then that my mother committed suicide PURPOSELY (it wasnt untill the last few years with my own battles with heroin, drug Councillors and psychologists that ive come to realize that she most likely ACCIDENTALLY killed herself off a relapse after Detoxing for 2 weeks)
such a shame really.
But with this knowledge burning a whole in my psyche, and my own self destructive behaviors and beliefs starting to form, My father thought he would take me to see this Native American Spirit Channeller Woman, Who I have never heard of, met, seen, or known of EVER. Also, my father found out about her through Recommendation.
Now, this wasnt a 1-on-1 reading ooooooooh no, there was about 20 people in the room with me ( a group reading??? i think is what its called..... and YES I watch Long Island Medium!) And this was a drop in session, we diddnt have to pay, and she took donations only, of any size.
She started by lighting some incense or something similar to that, as i could not remember the smell, and to MY observation + the knowledge i now have, i think it was to cleanse the room of negative energy for a more positive reading.
She then proceeded to play to what looked like a leather Native American Hand Drum while chanting along softly at first, but then getting progressively louder and more intense (as most native american fire songs usualy are..... if you've ever heard them)
Me at this point, still wasnt buying it.... I thought this was all just smoke and mirrors, a distraction to try n keep our minds blank, or maybe to read some sort of body language or vibes any of us where giving off.
Then after she began to read people, in a random order.
I could tell after the first few readings, that the people who where there, tended to show reactions to what she was telling them in groups of 2-4, And their reactions where all genuine aswell.... Still, i was determined to be stubborn and close minded.
the reading go on for about 10-15 mins before she finally looked at me and gave me my reading.
And what she said at first was everything i thought/assumed/predicted she would tell me....... (at this point in my life, i was probably at my most prime, as i was in a different part of the country than what i was used to living in, working out about 3 times a week, eating great and my drug usage was down to probably a reefer every other weekend)
"I see a woman, She gives off a Warm motherly energy, and wants you to know She is very proud of you and direction your life is heading rite now"
pshhhh, I bet that quote is in the Psychic Cold Reading for Dummies hand manual!!!!!
BUT THEN!!! rite after that first statement, she proceeded to tell me something that literraly blew my mind, and was probably the first time i was able to drop all my judgement and stubborn beliefs and actually open my mind up to the, What if???
Now what she told me, turned me from a skeptic into a believer for 2 reasons....
the 1st being that what she told me, happened to be a lost memory from my childhood, One that i barely remember because at the time i was almost too young to remember
And 2nd being that no one but my own mother, would of even Thought to bring that up as a way of validating thats the spirit that was reaching out to me (even my father wasn't around at the time of this memory)
and well I could Quote the thing she told me for all of you BUT it wouldnt make sense unless i went into detail for you about this event or thing from my early childhood, but i feel as if i have already gotten my point across well enough
But if you REALLY want me to explain, let me know and ill drop it in another post.
I will suggest though, that if your going to go see a psychic medium, make sure they do readings because its their purpose in life to do so, and not because your wallet is PHAT $$$
I know exactly what you're going through losing a sibling...
