Have you ever been to a tarot card reader or any one of the many psychic modalities?
What is the allure of fortune-tellers? And why do we need to look into the future?
As far as I’m concerned, the jury is still out as to whether they really can predict what is going to happen in my world.
Over the years, I have been to many different psychics, from card readers, astrologers and numerologists to clairvoyants and palm readers. All have been able to tell me my traits, personality etc. and be pretty on par with that.
But for telling the future… pretty darn abysmal.
Yes, I know, free will means that I can block anything they’ve told me from happening. But, hey, if it’s good, then why would I??? Wouldn’t I be more likely to be looking forward to the predicted outcome?
There have only been two occasions when what the psychic told me has come to fruition. And of those two, only one was very much outside the square and not something I was expecting at all. Which brings me to wonder … was it a lucky guess? Or was she an excellent clairvoyant?
As for all the other things that should have happened, well, I’m still waiting. There’s a man from Portugal with the large yacht yet to sail into my life – geez, it’s been over 20 years! And what about all the public talks around the world I was to give??? Mind you; perhaps the cards couldn’t foresee the virus putting a dampener on any travelling.
The funny part is when I see a card reader, I’m still tempted to sit down opposite just out of curiosity. It’s a bit like being tempted to take a lotto ticket. But I don’t spend on the lottery because of the enormous odds, so I probably won’t be looking into the crystal ball either for the same reason.
P.S. And just so you know – the two clairvoyants that seemed to get it right… I jolly well can’t remember who they were – now, isn’t that just a rotten plot twist!!!!!
