Don't Tell Me Anything Bad!!

As a psychic and palm reader, one of the most common requests I hear, as a client turns up their palms to me, is "Don't tell me anything bad!". I always answer, "Who am I to judge what is bad for you?"

Although I think several courses in psychology should be required to do psychic readings, most of us are not psychologists. We are not going to give unasked for information that would open or cause mental or emotional wounds. However, the dog dying may seem like terrible news to me, but actually be a relief to the client who may have an animal suffering. The psychic can and should only deliver the information as it comes, and in the way it comes, to the client....no judgement or filter.

I do believe in free will and I also believe in the power of words to influence. So, if I really sensed that the person in front of me was going to die in a car accident soon...I would probably caution them to drive in a more alert mode the next few days so that they could possibly avoid an accident. I would not say that I see them being hit by a green truck! I could cause them to drive erratically at every green truck they saw and possible cause the accident. So, my words must be delivered to help, not cause harm.

Looking back on your life, how many so called bad things allowed for something really good to come into your life? Maybe not all, but a good many.

I do feel that the psychic should be honest, direct and deliver with as much kindness, concern and love as possible. After all, if we truly are all connected, then the person sitting across from you is of the same light source and very much a kindred angel.

Money in the lines of your Hand

For over 20 years I have looked at the palms of the living and the dead to read or witness the story that is written with the lines there. I feel that each of us willingly chose this human life mission ,but some Divine mind ...in an act of deep compassion...gave us a map so we woudn't get too lost. I think we just forgot how to read the map!

There many books written on palmistry and all of them differ and contradict each other in some degree, which is why learning it can be a bit frustrating. It really is an art that simply requires looking at hundreds of hands.

I call myself a psychic palmist because I "intuitively" sense things in your hand without really being able to pinpoint the exact line. For instance, I may sense that there has been time spent in jail. I may or may not see the line, but I smell the steel and sense the coldness of the bars...that is my psychic sense. Because of this overlap of palmistry and psychic sense I find it difficult for me to teach to others, but it frees me to accept what the lines mean without judgement or completely relying on what others have written.

One of the most frequent questions in palmistry is about money and there are numerous lines that indicate money and where it might come from. Remember one line does not dictate your future! You could have money in your hand but have all the qualities to be a gambler...therefore losing it all.

If you turn your hand palm up you have a thumb, then the Jupiter(index) finger,the Saturn finger, Apollo finger and the little finger is called Mercury. If there is a small curved line at the base of the Apollo finger then you may inherit money at some time in your life. Lottery wins are shown as small triangles inside and against the life line whic is the line running on the inside edge of your palm above your thumb and curving out into your hand to the base of your thumb. A cross in the middle of the palm , depending on what line it is near, can indicate losses before great gains. Sometimes the wealth in the hand is through honors and recognition. Stars and triangles are often good markings in the palm.

I encourage you to find a good palmistry book with lots of illustrations and study your hand. The riches you'll find there are beyond money...it's your map to your path back home.

The Bacon Bookmarker

I have a huge personal library of over 1000 books with many of them passed down from generations or purchased from old bookstores and second hand stores. I saw an article not long ago about someone who had written a book about the odd things he had found inside books that people had used as bookmarkers. It caught my eye because I have always been delighted by finding old tickets,articles clipped from newspapers, etc.in the books that I have purchased over the years.

My mother once found a slip of paper sticking out of the spine of a book in the bottom of a huge box of things she had purchased at some rumage sale. I don't remember the exact words written on the piece of paper, but it stated something similiar to this.."Mary, since you are the only one who will want and love my books when I am gone, there is several thousand dollars under the tile in the kitchen for you.". There was no clue on the scrap of paper about the author or when it was written or for whom the note was intended, but it was a wonderful childhood mystery and I am sure we still own the book.

Over the years I have found old obituaries tucked into pages of poems, locks of hair and slews of four leaf clovers, but the strangest bookmarker of all was the strip of bacon! I can't imagine how the reader could find nothing at all in reach to mark his or her place.

There is also something very personal and sometimes funny about comments written in the margins of books. I have such respect for books that I hesitate to write on the pristine pages of workbooks,but old cookbooks often have notes about certain recipes or comments on the household budget.An old Bible from the library of a deceased clergyman with his notes of deep belief ,wonderment and sometimes doubt are privileged looks into the thoughts and minds of someone long gone from this dimension.

Yes, I would like to have a device to download books someday, but I would so miss the bookmarks...even if it were only a strip of bacon.

Here and Now 2012

In my lifetime, I don't think there has ever been as much speculation about a new year. Movies and books abound about 2012 and prophecies that would rival Nostradamus. I can't help but feel excited that my soul chose this time and this Earth plane to be here to witness whatever unfolds.

This doesn't mean that I don't occasionally feel a pang of panic at the dissolving of so many of our systems and even belief systems, but I find that I am more fascinated by the possibilities that could unfold. I find that as a medium,when I communicate with the Other Side, they are also feeling the excitement and wonder of what will be happening here on this dimension.

I chose a single word to define my year and the word is SIMPLE. I am not a clutterer, but do I really need 8 blankets for a guest bed that rarely does anyone sleep in ,when one would suffice? I am clearing out all the unnecessary and making my load...materially, emotionally and physically and perhaps even psychically...as light as possible for whatever path lies ahead in this incredulous year of 2012.

Ghost Hunting

About a year ago, I joined a group of paranormal investigators partly out of curiosity as to how ghosts are detected scientifically and because I love old buildings and mansions. I have grown to appreciate the hard work involved in setting up high end recorders and cameras,lugging cable up many flights of steps,working in the dark and often without heat.

Imagine sitting in a dark, cold basement asking for a ghost to come forward and show themselves, or to actually speak to you! Sometimes in the twelve hours nothing seems to happen and then the second grueling job of paranormal investigators is actually listening to hours and hours of recordings to detect EVP's (electronic voice phenomena)and watch hours of camera views section by section to see any changes.

I have had the good fortune to have been accepted into a group of one of the most professional groups, the Southeastern Ohio Paranormal Investigators. Please check their fantastic web site www.SEOHIOPI.com to see a little of what we are about. Don't look for my picture in the group, my schedule doesn't allow me the opportunity to go on many "hunts", so I am not in the featured clips.

It has been a wonderful experience and I still admit that I am not afraid of ghosts, but if anything brushes against my cheek in the dark it had better be a ghost and not a spider!!! UGH

Blessings,

The Grave in His Hand

He came into my office after about the second year I had begun doing readings as a professional psychic and palmist. I don’t remember much about him except that he was older and his questions were mainly about his business and the possible outcome of some particular investments….and that his hands were quite beautiful.

I usually start with looking at my client’s palms: first the non dominant hand for the past and then the dominant hand for the present possibilities and choices.

I start with the past to see family health issues and to look for mental and emotional sensitiveness and sometimes past dreams and plans. It was while I was beginning this first look that I was struck with amazement by something in his hand. I could feel the sorrow! I could smell the dirt of the grave and I blurted out in my stunned awe, “What did you do with the body?"

His face color seemed to go completely white and then red and then ashen again.

I realized, as I was apologizing for touching on something he had not come to discuss, that he had committed a murder at some time in his teens and ….no one knew. This was a terrible, festering secret and one he regretted (I would not have detected it if he had felt no remorse) and it really did affect and have everything to do with his life and decisions.

I had blurted the basis for each decision he made in all areas of his entire life. I never knew whether if having his secret finally shared with someone else was a help or not, because we finished the reading ……and he never returned.

Lesson: As a mother, I wrestled a bit, when he had gone, with the moral dilemma. Somewhere, someone grieved a lost child by murder and did not know where they were or who had murdered them. Was I obligated to find out more? Should I report it to someone? It was a day or two of soul searching that I finally concluded this man was, and had for a lifetime, been suffering more than I could ever imagine. If I were to continue doing psychic readings, then I must maintain confidentiality and trust and do the reading with complete love…and nothing more.
