Ignorant Understandings of what Psychics and Readers do for Seekers.

The amount of ignorance out there about what psychics do and don’t do is astounding. Perhaps it’s the bad marketing or the “good” marketing (that which the masses need to hear in order to purchase) that creates such misunderstandings.

The negativity that is spewed here is atrocious and it’s ironic that the tagline of the site is: “deny ignorance”. Come on guys, you got to start with yourselves first.

First find out what “real” psychics and readers do for the seekers that come to them.

Psychics and Readers should do readings for free! ???

“LOL….that’s exactly why O check [spiritual/psychic/occult books] out from the Library ! I believe true gifts should not used for monetary gain!”

“Making this kind of $$$ for a freely given gift from God that is
supposed to be helping people, or making this kind of $$$ for
faking a gift … that’s really bad karma! (I agree… taking $$$ for faking a gift is bad karma)”

I agree that there should never be an exchange of money for “a gift from the gods/god/goddess/whatever but some believe they are doing us a favor in balancing out karma. Imagine if you saw the same psychic regularly and got information that benifited you. (Yes, why is it okay for the seeker to benefit but not the reader?! huh!) Some believe this would put you in a situation of karmic indebtedness to that individual and therefore it is appropriate to have some exchange of energies to repay the “psychic” in order to avoid karmic debt. It doesn’t have to be money but isnt money just a physical representation of energy? We work, expend energy in whatever form and we are given money. Money = energy.”

Okay. Lets get something straight: EVERYONE has gifts from God(s), Goddesses, The Creator, or whatever. Why is it that people think that readers and psychics “shouldn’t” get paid.

Here’s the thing, there is a “demand” for pyschics and readers so if no one got paid but everyone needs to have money to survive, who would be reading? This “they shouldn’t get paid” mentality is actually one I used to have myself before I went full-time professional. This was a “high minded” attitude I had. 🙂

Money is the energy source, the commodity, that we all need to make the world go around. Now, I’m not much for Sylvia Browne — I’m skeptical of her abilities — however, she writes books that inspire and calm people. Those books “cost” money to make. Does God push his arm through to the earth and hand her a wad of cash to make books? Does God pay the publishers, the paper makers, the distributors, the bookstore clerks??

If you get a book from a library, here’s some good reasons why: you can’t afford to buy, you are not sure you want to have it permanently, you already have too many books at home, you don’t like wasting paper, you believe in sharing books, etc etc. If it’s because you just don’t want to support the writer because they are spiritual, that is really an upsetting concept to me.

As taxpapers are you prepared to pay for psychics and readers who help and heal the world? Because psychics and readers need money to survive and if they are so gifted why would you have them working a dead-end 9-5 job instead of focusing their energy, attention, and God-given talents on something that’s spiritual, heals, and comforts the world? You people are making “no sense” to me. Your arguments are illogical and seem to be founded out of greed.

People that suggest others should do things for free — whether that be psychics or Web designers — are either fooling themselves or are charlatans themselves. I hope they are just being foolish and ignorant.

I think people have a problem with “anyone” making money if it’s to help the heart and soul of others. Well what about sports stars and movie celebrities? Through their art, we are entertained. Through that we get to forget about our troubles for awhile or realize things are not that bad or be inspired to heal. *shakes head*

So you want to “use” people who have God-given talent?? My lord, everyone has God-given talent and if they respect themselves and their gift, they will NOT be used by other people. Now, there isn’t anything wrong with doing stuff for free if a) you want to; b) you can afford to; or c) you are learning but you DESERVE to get something out of every transaction you do on earth.

Sylvia Browne charges whatever she charges because “she can”. It’s a basic principle of supply and demand. If she read for $60 an hour, she would be booked for years. There are different price ranges for different affordabilities. I would hope she also does freebies from time-to-time. In fact, I would hope “anyone” in “any” profession does freebies from time-to-time (i.e. lawyers and pro bono).

Edward Cayce didn’t get paid to do the readings he did, but he did receive “donations”. Same stuff, different term. And in the end, he was doing 8 a day and had bookings 2 years in advance. He died and people are suggesting it was because he was “reading to much”. *sigh*

People who give you readings are giving you their time, energy, wisdom, and knowledge — which is ALSO a gift from God — i.e. God *allowing* you to live and have the time, energy, wisdom, and knowledge to do as you like.

I give freebies but I also understand how the universal law of cause and effect works (aka karma) and so I take no issue with it because I “know” it will come back to me and first and foremost I want to help. I don’t do this professionally for greed. But when I was working in the corporate world, like most do, I was working for greed and then I got sick.

So who is talking smack to who?
