Why is it when your life is in flux – when you’ve made changes but you do not know what is around the corner - is it just me, or is this when we all make that booking to see a Psychic?
I’d only been to one ‘card reading’ type of psychic with a friend, it was 15 years ago and we named her ‘Madam Robyn’. At the time of the reading, she had glimpses of fantastical wonder. Like laughing at the end of the session, when she had to tune in and conjure up my ‘Animal Symbol’…my ogga-booga totem animal. I guess she was used to coming up with Eagle, Moose, Cayotee running………mine however was a giant comical Frog. It amused her no end. It had its relevance, l was doing a show called ‘Kiss a Frog’ and my nickname in Primary and High School was….Frog. But it was all rather useless at the time, she was a bit more like Nostradamus, minus the world events!!? In hindsight ‘Madam Robyn’,was rather accurate.
Where is she now? I did not have time to roam the Psychic card-tables at markets around the state…..l needed spiritual guidance now.
Actually, l wasn’t really seeking it. It just so happened that two friends thought l should. So it seems that l have done a psychic a year for the past two years. Lets stick with a theme…..Psychic 2007…..’Madam L.A’ She had that alluring quality….you left a text message only to wait and wait. It was like calling a shifty drug dealer….just waiting to be accepted as a client……..had she not called back because she had read something into my text? She finally took me in and l made my way out to the burbs to found her small crystal-laden unit. I felt the judging eyes of the neighbours burning into the back of my head as l pressed the doorbell………”there is another one, searching, trying to find her high”. I was gonna get my psychic hit. ‘
Madam L.A’ had the vibe but she was slightly disconcerting. One eye was firmly planted…. well, somewhere else in the room. Perhaps this was her inner eye. To us common folk, this would just be called swivs.
My friend had been to see ‘Madam L.A’ and found her guidance of use……..l on the other hand thought she was a crock. Not saying that l didn’t believe in her when l was there, gave her my full belief. It is just that again………in hindsight, she was no Nostradamus. I’ll be fair, perhaps she was having an off day. And this is where I wonder…… is there feedback? Do people call ‘Madam L.A’ a year later and go……”hey, you know that $80….can l have it back?” …………..”Did you know l was going to call?”
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep…………………..
I must say that she covered more than just my good-self. You see…….my friend had advised me that she reads from photographs, l don’t even remember if she had cards as l was too busy trying to write everything she said down. I think she just read from the pictures and had a panel of spirits on hand. One was a Dr who had obviously died from malpractice or old age. He totally botched up…….it was my mother who had the eye problems and the dizziness the following year and not my father. Having brought the photos of family and friends, l felt a little ripped off as they got more of a reading than l did. None of their divined futures have come true……….as yet. Nor did mine.
Role on 2008, Another friend wanted me to go to a reading with her and although l really, really didn’t feel up to hearing and placing misguided hopes, l went. This was a tradition with my friend and her mother, her mother had died the previous year. So it was about….being there.
‘Madam Faye’ was full of spunk and had been in this business for 30 years, you wouldn’t be game questioning this woman! She read from cards and this time l recorded the session so that l could really listen to my future.
Let me state here for the record that l do believe in Psychics. But l believe that you should always hold a level of scepticism… until they prove their worth. Anyone can claim to be psychic and learn to shuffle a deck of cards.
So how did this Madam rank? Well, again…….l don’t think she scored that well but higher than Madam 2007. She was very accurate about the job l had just been for and missed out on. She was very correct about elements of my job.
She hit the top two ……job and relationship. Which is what l had gone there for. The third was that l was psychic…….that news is nothing new, they always tell me that. It seems that l just have to choose to accept the mission and decide what l will do with it.
So, the job reading didn’t really tell me much…….the next job is to be the springboard to the biggy.
The relationship……..well after awhile, l asked her the question…….”but what if l’ve never gone out with a bloke?” I felt the temperature change with ‘Madam Faye’………she paused and then hammered me with questions until l admitted “Ok, ok.. so l liked a guy……once………25 years ago.” She told me that the cards did not define between male or female, l felt this to be quite contridictory to her entire reading up until that moment….she was obviously just miffed that she’d made a mistake….or been outed.
So it was to be divined that l was to get a new job and a new girl…….of the girl, she told me hair colour, age, star sign and that she had been in the military once. I left, imagining some butch G.I-Jane and was not at all pleased. I wondered, why is it that psychics can give you that amount of detail but not the girls name or where the hell you found each other.
One thing l did pick up from ‘Madam Faye’……..and when this happened, l wanted to call her and ask, “Does every client get a free ghost?”
I had gone home that night and lay in the bath thinking about my future life with G.I Jane and the many commando rolls that we would do together……..this wonderful dream was disturbed by a small crunching sound and as l turned my head, the bath towel on the rail moved to the left. “Great!, a freek’n ghost has followed me home!!” I had been lying there wondering what the noise had been, but when l finally got up, l stood on my pajamas and heard the exact sound, the scrunching of the PJ’s tag on the tiles. Dam ghost had stood on my Jimmy Jams! Not only that……on telling this story, my friend ‘Word Girl’ pointed out…….it was also a pervy ghost. Great! That night, I asked the ghost to go…….to leave me alone……l wasn’t ready for this……not now.
Six months later, l don’t have the job yet but l have met a girl. Does she tick all the boxes for Psychic love and do l throw her back if she doesn’t?
Well……………in the ‘No’ column…….wrong age, wrong star sign.
In the ‘Yes’ column…..she has quoted the psychic by saying “l was very blonde when l was young”.
In the ‘Maybe’ column……..she was not in the military but both of her parents were.
So is it Psychic Love? I figure that………..until l see my first commando roll, it is up in the air.
My ghost obeyed and did not return.
I am searching out a card table to start my new job…….’Psychic Bunny’.
