Death Predictions by Psychics – Are They Believable?

images (20)Dying is no great revelation. However, what if during a reading, the psychic advisor unexpectedly blurted out that you or a loved one was going to die sometime in the next five years? How would you handle that information? If someone predicted I was going to die in a reading, I would agree. But, I would also tell them I don’t want to know the details.

One of the most common situations I run in to as a psychic is the person who comes along with their friend getting the reading and, when asked if they want one too, they fearfully say, “I don’t want to know.” Usually, when quizzed, they will spill the fear of being told they’ll die. Most people don’t want to know that!

The truth is, it’s hard to predict physical death. There are certain tarotcards that can represent it, but it’s usually a combination of several cards rather than just one. With palmistry, there can be indicators of “something” dangerous coming, represented by a cutting line or trauma line, or a gap in a line. But, other lines often make up for deficiencies in one particular line, short lines, or broken lines in a hand.

images (22)I remember a local story about a group of rowdy teens who went to an area “psychic.” Apparently, one fifteen-year-old girl was told she’d die in a car wreck. She was so traumatized by this that she couldn’t go to school. Her mother wrote to our local paper about it. It didn’t take any psychic abilities to intuit that it was more a case of an irritated psychic than anyclairvoyance at work! Still, this was a terrible thing to do to a child. Not long after, the “psychic” closed up shop.

The week before my twenty-four-year-old son was killed by a drunk driver, he asked me for a reading. I was in a hurry, so I looked at his palm and did a quick tarot layout. And I didn’t see his death. I interpreted what I saw as a huge change coming, which fit with what was going on in his life. I’m grateful I didn’t understand what I was seeing; it would’ve been unthinkable. Now, I think that my interpretation wasn’t too far wrong. The biggest change we’ll ever undergo is our transition to the afterlife; I just didn’t realize it was James’s time to make that journey. I’m glad I didn’t see it—it was better left unseen. Maybe God in His mercy holds back our gift at times like these.

images (21)The uncanny “coincidences” leading up to his death and his own clairvoyance about it (the pictures he painted of a giant heart; the song lyrics he wrote—”As close to tortured as I’ve ever been is lying here wondering, if my heart might beat away and away and away”—they all fell into place when we met the man who received James’s heart and he uttered James’s favorite phrase: “It’s all good.”

So, don’t be afraid of a psychic predicting your death. It is difficult, if not impossible to do (not to mention a bad business practice). And many psychics, myself included, believe only a Higher Power is truly privy to this information.

  1. This article offers a profound insight into the ethics of psychic readings. The idea that some information might be better left undisclosed is a refreshing take on an often sensationalized topic.

  2. This discussion hints at deeper philosophical questions regarding human existence and our relationship with uncertainty. It’s fascinating how spirituality intersects with psychology in this context.

  3. ‘Don’t be afraid of a psychic predicting your death’? If only it were that simple! This seems like an attempt to downplay a very serious issue.

  4. ‘Psychics can’t predict death,’ they said. ‘Just look at my palm!’ Ah, yes, because nothing says ‘trustworthy’ like divination based on hand lines! Classic!

  5. The juxtaposition of fear and clairvoyance in this narrative is intriguing. It raises questions about fate versus free will—how much control do we really have over our destinies?

  6. ‘The biggest change we’ll ever undergo is our transition to the afterlife.’ This statement encapsulates a profound existential truth that many overlook in their quest for certainty about life and death.

  7. Imagine going to a psychic and they say, ‘I see great change ahead!’ You’d think they just had lunch at Taco Bell or something!

  8. While I appreciate the sentiment, it’s hard to take this seriously. Psychic abilities are largely unproven, and this seems like an attempt to rationalize an inherently dubious practice.

  9. Absolutely! It challenges the common narrative and encourages a more compassionate approach to the practice.

  10. Exactly! The interplay between knowledge and ignorance plays a critical role in how we confront mortality.
