If a psychic tells me something is going to happen, is there any way I can change it, or is it definitely going to happen?
What shall I do if I get a negative prediction? Why hasn’t a particular prediction come true yet?
Nothing is set in stone. You can change your future, you can change the outcome of a prediction, but here’s what you need to know about that: It’s true that nothing is set in stone, so how can a psychic tell you what’s going to happen? What’s happening is when a psychic tunes into your energy, he or she is reading your current energy as it is right now, and also looking down the path to see what’s going to happen to you if you stay on that path. So, when a psychic gives you a prediction, they are telling you what they see as the culmination of the path you are currently on. If you don’t like the outcome that he or she is seeing, then you have the opportunity to change course and do whatever – make changes so that you do not end up with that outcome. The changes you make may or may not work, but you have the opportunity to change your course.
I have witnessed many predictions that came true while others have changed due to free will. I’ve observed again and again that the future is a mutable (or changeable) place and isn’t written in stone for any of us. When I do a reading with a client, I see an outline of probable realities at the time of the reading. I look at the story of your life—the past, present, and potential future—at that moment.
I believe we all have a blue print that draws out the story of our fate and destiny, and that certain events and life experiences are preordained, but you still have the pen in your hands. If I tell someone that they need to stay conscious or they’re going to slip on a banana, and then they don’t stay conscious, they’re going to stumble on a banana.
The future is like a moving hologram that morphs as you evolve or don’t evolve.
Once we get the initial prediction, it seems we all want to know when it will happen. I always have to brace myself for this question because time is very difficult to predict. In the future, time is like a spiral not a straight logical line. Regardless of what is predicted you still need to be present to your life as it unfolds from the “now til the now” as you also run the risk of being too attached to a future that has not yet come to be. That’s always a hazard of clinging to the details of what someone says about your future.
Readings should empower you, not leave you worried about your future. Even if difficult information is being shared, it should be delivered with compassion and the reader should be able to show you an alternative path if there is one, or continue the reading to show what transpires after a difficult cycle ends.
Also remember that whenever you get a reading from anyone, you’re getting that psychic or intuitive’s perspective from a number of sources. The person using their psychic abilities on your behalf is going to read through a filter of their own life experience and personality. And, the reading is only as good as the connection between you and the reader. I always encourage people to get references for a psychic and to pay close attention to their intuition.
If you don’t feel a connection with the psychic or you have a bad feeling about the reading, then trust your inner voice.
For example, I once had a very popular psychic tell me I would never have a relationship with a faithful man. In my heart, I knew that was not true, but it upset me so much it took me ages to shake it given my history. And, as you probably know, I’m now in a loving, very honest, trusting relationship with a completely faithful man. He also told me that I had reached the height of my career, and I should accept my path as someone who would never attain much. That was a year before I signed a record deal with EMI music followed by meeting Marc, then becoming a Hay House author. So was he wrong, or was it that his reading forced me to make changes in my life that aligned me with where I am today? I believe wholeheartedly in the statement “the act of observation changes that which is being observed.” What he said was impactful and a great impetus for deep inner work, which I did do. But I know about these things and many people do not, as they give power to the reading and accept it as finite.
Sometimes predictions are meant to wake you up.
Oracles can at times be like tricksters, especially when you aren’t listening to them and keep going back to get readings. I call this oracle abuse. In fact, as a general rule I won’t do more than two readings a year for my clients. When you get too many readings, you’re basically giving your power to the reader. If you keep asking for more signs and guidance through readings about the same subject over and over, the energy becomes desperate and all you see is what’s not there yet. You move from the reading empowering you to the reading fostering lack in your subconscious.
Readings should be treated with respect. Look to a reading as a means to track your course and to support what you already know or reveal what you may not know on your path. Remember the psychic is seeing what is potential and probable, but you still have to stay in the present and you can’t be a passive couch potato. You must take appropriate action and have faith that Spirit has a plan for you that may or not be revealed to you through a reading with a psychic. In the end, Spirit has the last say… not you or the psychic.
While I appreciate the perspective shared here, I remain unconvinced that psychics possess any genuine foresight. Predictions seem more like educated guesses rather than certainties.
‘The act of observation changes that which is being observed’ is a profound statement! It highlights how our awareness shapes reality itself.
But isn’t it equally valid to consider that predictions could be a reflection of the energy we project? Perhaps there’s more to this than mere guesswork.
‘A moving hologram’? Truly poetic language! But honestly, wouldn’t it be simpler if our futures came with instruction manuals?
‘If I tell someone they’re going to slip on a banana, does that make me a psychic or just someone who enjoys fruit-related humor?’
This article presents a compelling argument for the mutable nature of fate. It’s fascinating to consider how our choices can indeed alter the predicted path.
Maybe we could start by rewriting our own manuals instead! Who needs psychics when self-awareness is an option?
I agree with SkepticalSeeker; it’s important to scrutinize claims about psychic abilities critically and demand empirical evidence.
‘Oracle abuse’? What a pretentious term! If someone seeks guidance repeatedly, perhaps they’re simply looking for reassurance in an uncertain world.
‘Predictions should empower you’? This sounds dangerously optimistic. We must remain cautious not to let hope cloud our judgment about potential outcomes.
‘Time is like a spiral’—this truly elevates metaphysics into art! Yet, I’m left pondering: what exactly do we do with this knowledge?
