Ok, so in response to Tripley's request .... I bought a reading via ebay on the recommendation of someone on here. It was all done by email. So how accurate was it? It's interesting because I had forgotten most of what she had said and have just had to re-read it. It's actually given me goosebumps.

I don't want to go into a huge amount of detail on here if that's OK. But what I can say is now I've re-read it a lot of things she said have been repeated by my MIL (a platform medium).

She predicted a house move, improved finances and a new business, one which would have some difficulties and obstacles. Now, the house move I can't see how it will happen to be honest - but MIL has "seen" a house and EVERY time I do my cards I get the 4 of wands! And just as I was going on about it at work "I just don't see how it will happen" again I come home to a letter through the door from a property developer interested in our house/land. Watch this space, in the meantime I'm practicing cosmic ordering!

New business has happened, and yes there are difficulties and obstacles. It's currently pretty stressful. She talked about me becoming more confident and not holding back, and I've certainly done that in the last couple of weeks, when I've waded into dh's business and am starting to shake up the way he and his partner are working and communicating - and I think I should have been involved from the start! The reading talked about me being busy and having to juggle and that's certainly happening now that dd is at school, I work 4 days and at the business when I'm not at work (plus home, etc etc). And that wasn't my plan - I was going to be making the most of SAHMdom.

She talked about my healing abilities and doing something using my hands - I'm doing a reiki course tomorrow!

She said I would develop via a group, maybe spiritualist church, which I have - colleagues at work who are all into reiki and energy work and a couple of weeks ago I gave my first message on the platform at "open mike" night.

There's a lot more but it's quite difficult to be succinct. It certainly makes a lot of sense and I can see how things have panned out for me since last June, when I had the reading fitting with what she said. She talked about a crossroads and an obstacle, and I think at that time I was at the start of really embracing my spiritual path - the obstacle being devoting time to it, but also my belief in my own abilities. But it's a path I'm following and I can honestly say it's been the best thing I ever did .

Sorry it took me so long to start this Tripley, dinner was ready.

Um, does this mean you are offering readings...? >

Do you need some of my vibes??

I am very much wondering about career.

TripleyTigger · 02/03/2008 09:43

Surfer, I will be back too!! I haven't forgotten our conversation.I found it really interesting.

I still have a major problem with the internet reading.
Unfortunately moving, new business or work change and good with your hands are classic responses.
They know that to go for a reading means you are at a cross roads in your life and a change is on its way. It would be fascinating to go back under another name and compare the two.
Please don't think I am knocking your reading,like you said there is personal stuff in there that meant a lot to you. I just need some convincing on that point.

Hope we can still have a good natter about it

Purpleduck,stay tuned!!! Did you see the previous thread that we were on? Hang on I'll do a link

TripleyTigger · 02/03/2008 09:44

here you are

Surfermum · 02/03/2008 10:52

No, I'm not a flouncer . One thing I really don't want to do is get swept away with it all and not keep my feet on the ground. I think it's always helpful to have a skeptic come along and either say "it's codswallop" or "but that could be explained by x". Rhubarb was doing that REALLY well on a thread last night. There's a girl at work who often bursts our bubble when we get carried away, and it's really good to have that.

I think I might go back and read it with cynical eyes and see if I still think it's good . I guess I think it is because everything she said fits with other things that have either happened, or other readings and stuff. And I'm not one who is forking out left, right and centre for readings all the time - it's from my own cards, chatting with colleagues, meditation, reiki and listening to my guides and my MIL!

And when I think back, it was like I was testing things to see what someone who had never seen me or known me would say. It's all very well MIL saying x,y and z - but she knows what's going on for me and what her own advice about things would be. And I was still very much at the stage "ok, this is what they said to me, but I would think that wouldn't I, it's just my own thoughts". Online, they have no idea who you are and can't make any judgements based on how you look or your body language.

What I didn't like is that there was no chance to ask questions or get clarification, and I'm not sure I would bother again, I think I prefer a face to face reading.

Sorry, purpleduck I'm not nearly good enough to do one for you right here, right now!

And I'm currently reconsidering whether it's possible online anyway!

OH!!!
misread

TripleyTigger · 03/03/2008 09:47

Surfer how do you fancy doing a little experiment sometime?

I was going to say I would try and do a reading over the pooter and see if anything was right. It would be ideal as we have only just met so you haven't told me anything about yourself. Problem is you have a profile up so it would be easy for me to get info on you.

So how do you think about reading me?
Its not a judgement on your ability because i bet one to one your readings are spot on I would just really like to test the thought that it can be done over the pooter.

Don't worry I am expecting everything to be wrongso don't be embarrassed. In fact I would be amazed if one thing was right!!!!
I would loved to be proved wrong though!!
What do you think?
If you like I can still do you,if you trust me enough not to look at your profile
Let me know,or if you have any other ideas or guinnea pigs we can use

PURPLEDUCK come back!!!! You could come in handy

VictorianSqualor · 03/03/2008 10:04

Oh Tiggs, I wish you didn't know me now!
I'd be your guinea pig

Flamesparrow · 03/03/2008 10:22

w/r online readings, I have never met MumOfMonsters. We know each other online, but that is all.

Every so often I feel like I should do a reading for her.

I normally email her saying I have done one, and why is she doing/not doing x/y/z etc. She is always that I know what she is up to.

I do feel that I have a connection with her though, so I don't know how it would pan out with a stranger. I think I need some sort of connection with someone - either a physical presence or emotional connection to be able to do a good reading.

Saying all that though, someone on here was giving readings at one point, I namechanged, she didn't know me, and it was very good.

Oxygen · 03/03/2008 10:28

I have no profile

You can do me if ya like

Surfermum · 03/03/2008 14:09

Yes, I'd be up for that! But not "live" on here, and deffo no cheating with looking at profiles or posts! .

I did wonder if I was getting a message for someone on here the other day as I chatted to her. But the guidance didn't resonate with her, not intially anyway, and did with me ...... oh there's my answer.

I've mulled over my online reading. I think it was quite psychic, there was a lot about me and my path, not much guidance. Now I would have thought that if anything it would be more mediumistic than psychic. If spirit want to get a message to me, they can do it via anyone, but she can only pick up my vibes from me? Hmmm ..... .

That's interesting Flame, maybe someone is nudging you to look out for MoM, and maybe the two of you have a connection from the past?

BTW reiki last night was AMAZING - am feeling very energised and can't wait to finish off the course tonight.

Flamesparrow · 15/03/2008 23:50

Sorry, never got back to this. There is def some connection with MoM - I have no idea what, but we're meant to know each other. It can be a bit freaky though, I pick up her emotions when they are strong enough/my shields are low... and I can tell you now that someone else's baby blues are NOT fun!
