So I talked to a psychic…

It’s been on my list of 101 things to do in a 1001 days. And to be honest, I was a little leery about having a psychic reading. I mean after all, how in the world can someone really know what is going to happen to you in the future. How things will come together. What will lead to that event. That my life could actually change?

But for the fun of it – both out of curiousity and because I said I do it at some point – I went for it and dialed in for my psychic reading. After all, being on the phone is much safer than going somewhere in person. (Or at least that much more anonymous.)

The lovely woman I spoke with gave me information about love, my career and the possibility about me moving away in the near future.

Regarding love… it’s coming – maybe even this year.

With my career… things could be changing for the better this summer.

And about moving… well that ain’t happening, so I might as well stop dreaming about it. ;-)

As you can imagine there was more to it, but I’d rather leave the details of the reading off the public spaces here.

Part of me wanted to ask more questions. Part of me wanted to find out if the love would be long term or for just a short time. But then there was part of me that knew if I asked too many questions… no matter how generic the answers, I would stew over them. I might even miss something that maybe God has in His plan for my life in the coming months that didn’t match up with the words spoken over the phone.

If you are a Christian and know my background, you are probably questioning my judgement right now. Maybe even questioning my faith. After all {mostly in the Old Testament} the Bible does say not to turn to “other mediums” for guidance. There is a verse from 1 John 4:1 (ESV) that I’m holding onto closely right now.

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

I prayed about this… for a while. I didn’t go into this without a LOT of thought, a LOT of prayer and to be honest, I still have a LOT of questions. I’m still holding steadfast to the plan God has for me (whatever that plan might be) ~ whether it includes what the psychic said or not.

I’m not advocating this for everyone. It is purely for fun. Purely for the simple entertainment to share with my friends.

Let’s just say though, if by year’s end the love and career items come true {with all the details she provided}… I just might be calling a psychic again.

But only for the fun of it. :)

I received a 10 minute psychic reading courtesy of Seer Interactive in exchange for this review. These are my own opinions and I loved sharing the fun I had doing this with you.

    I’ve been to a psychic a few times as well and I am a Christian. Just take everything with a grain of salt. It is fun to hear what they have to say…plus, I truly think some people are just blessed with a deep ability to read others. Excited to check out what else is on your list :)

    I’ve also seen a psychic for the fun of it and I’m a Christian too. I don’t put too much emphasis on it. The psychic told me that I’d marry someone with dark hair and light eyes. That’s all I can remember (it was probably going on 9 years ago now). At the time I was pining over my ex boyfriend who was sort of on again off again. He has (had)(I mean he has it still but he’s not in my life anymore) black hair and green eyes, so i thought it was him. Then I ended up marrying my hubby who has brown hair and blue eyes. Sometimes I think, what if God is speaking through this person…I know that’s a strange thing to say but I always just wonder…

    My brother actually has a close relationship with a psychic who he first saw several months ago. She was eerily accurate on so many things. And now they’re like BFF and he gets free readings whenever he wants them and he knows her life story.

    I think psychics are cool because even if they’re not 100% for real, they give the person in question hope. And that hope may color the way a person sees things. So for instance, that guy you happen to run into every once in a while when you’re stopping for your Diet Coke every morning (just as an example…) may start to look different if you have the idea in your head that love is supposed to be just around the corner. Or the random tweet about a possible job opening might be explored instead of ignored. Then YOU are making things happen for yourself not based on whether or not the psychic was right, but on the choices you’re making with that hope in your heart.

    Either way I hope all the good things you were told are true!!!

    I went to a psychic back when I was in college just for fun. Like you, everything was very open to interpretation and could have been said to anyone. Saying I would never struggle financially while seeing my comfortable and designer clothes didn’t really convince me of anything. I did sign up to go to a psychic conference once. It was canceled due to snow. What does THAT say about the pack? LoL

    Glad you had fun!

    That sounds like fun, even if I don’t believe in all that mumbo jumbo.

    I have to say, though, that I have possession of a tape recording of a session my grandmother had with a psychic. It was done in person. While I have no idea what sort of background information my grandmother had given before the session, there were some pretty specific and eerie things the psychic brought up during the reading.
