Today I had a very interesting appointment with a woman who works as a medium and a fortune teller. I have had my fortune told once before, a few years ago when I was in Whitby and so much of what she said to me actually came true. However, this time I saw a local woman who calls herself a spiritual psychic. This was my very first time seeing a medium who also gives readings into the future. So its like a two for one deal!
I didn't really know what to expect and I went with an open mind. I do firmly believe that our loved ones communicate with us after their death and that they are never far away from us, and as I have recieved spirit messages myself in the past, I was curious to know how this medium worked and what tools she preferred to use.
There were the kind of messages I was half expecting - the usual messages of love from relatives who have died; and my grandmother hogging the space so that my dad and granddad could hardly get a word in edgewise! I had a message for my mother from my step-dad too, plus a much appreciated apology from my ex-fiance. His was the last message and the most upsetting for me.
I was taking it all as a bit of pre-Christmas comfort that my dead relatives (most of my family have died of cancer) are still around and still with me in spirit. But then she came to the fortune telling part using tarot cards, when she blew me away by saying a name that no-one knows anything about.
I had never met this lady before today, but she gave me the name of a man I've spoken to on the phone and who I haven't heard from in a couple of years. I'd already given up on him to be honest, but she said that he will make a welcome return to my life in the future. This is a man I don't know that well. No-one in my life knows about him and I don't speak of him at all. Like I said, I had placed him firmly in the past. I don't know how she knew his name and his circumstances, but she did. So if she is correct I'll be speaking to him again at some point in the future!
It is the strangest thing when an aspect of your private life, that no-one else knows about, is reflected back at you in this way. It was a bit of a shock to be honest, but a nice shock. I guess it was a little bit of 'proof' - how else could she know my secrets unless she is the real deal? And I do believe that some people are gifted that way.
She also said that my counselling would be very successful and that I would be moving forward with that too, and soon. Again, imagine my happy surprise when I got home this evening and on checking my emails, found one from a Practice who want to meet with me later this month. The email was sent 20 minutes after I left for my appointment with the medium lady!
She referred to me as an Earth Angel, which is a term I've heard before but not one I have ever used to describe myself. She also mentioned that I had worked as a carer in nursing homes for the elderly (this was over 25 years ago!) and that I am a well known writer - but she could have recognised me from my columnist photo.
So all in all, I was quite impressed. It was a pleasant appointment and something I wanted to do. I booked this reading six months ago and I have been looking forward to it. As I said, I haven't had my fortune told in about 5 or 6 years, so I was ready for another reading. I like to go to strangers because I think it gives the best accuracy. I would certainly go and have my fortune told again, but not for a few years. It was a nice visit and I'm glad I decided to book a reading with her. I know psychics and spiritualism are not everybody's cup of tea and that's fine. Just think how dull the world would be if we all liked the same things!
Oh and apparently my spirit guide is a Valkyrie or Swan Maiden from the snowy North - a woman in swans feathers, wearing a jewelled helm and carrying a sword. I guess that explains my love of swan maiden fairytales and my ambition to go to Norway on holiday and live in the Scottish Highlands then! Valkyries are the guardian angels of warriors in Norse and Celtic mythology and winter is my favourite season - I do love a snowy landscape.
It was all very interesting and a lovely way to spend St Andrews Day. I have much to reflect on tonight, but I now have assurances that my future is bright, I will speak to my friend again at some stage in the future... and in the meantime I am guided by a Swan Queen. Perfect!
