Are We Expecting Too Much?

9
love issues

We all come to expect that our closest romantic partners will “be there” for us in times of need. But, like it or not, you also unconsciously measure whether your partner is good enough for you or vice versa. Research into relational entitlement is now putting under the microscope this set of attitudes and trying to determine whether and how it relates to a couple’s satisfaction with each other. So, are you guilty of expecting too much from your partner?

Allow these eight facts of an unfulfilled relationship to answer that question for you:

  • You Think it Should be All About You

The psychotherapist Albert Ellis once said, “Where is it written that others must act the way we want them to—it may be preferable, but not necessary.” In other words, there’s no rule that people need to act the way we want them to, and it isn’t necessary for them to do so. George Valliant, the man who has studied human happiness for most of his life, says, “A cardinal rule for happiness is not to think less of ourselves, but to think of ourselves less.” Translation: It’s not all about you all of the time. You will find that you enjoy your partner most when you are not expecting too much from them. You’ll be satisfied by your connection if you are not seeking out specific moments of happiness. On the other hand, if you think your partner should always act the way you want them to, you expect too much from them.

  • There’s No Commitment

People in committed relationships make serious compromises and sacrifices. If you and your partner aren’t committed to each other, you can’t expect them to make serious compromises and sacrifices for you. You can’t expect them to, and they shouldn’t! If you expect compromises and sacrifices from a partner you aren’t committed to, you expect too much.

  • You Won’t Make Sacrifices for Them

You may expect your partner to give up certain things for you, but would you give up those same things for them? Of course, if you wouldn’t make the same sacrifices for your partner, you have no right to ask them to make sacrifices for you. But, if you do, you expect too much.

  • You Rely on Them for Your Excitement and Romance

You can’t rely on your partner to bring all the excitement and romance to your relationship. You also need to bring excitement and romance to the relationship, which comes from your sense of wonder and desire for adventure. In multiple studies, it has been suggested that couples are more satisfied with each other when they are constantly engaged in interesting and novel tasks. So if you want more fire in your relationship, it is also up to you to provide the spark.

  • You’ve Cheated (or Considered Cheating)

Cheaters claim they cheated because they were unhappy in their relationships and they were unhappy because their partners did not meet their expectations. Unfortunately, nearly 90% of people who believe in true love and soul mates also believe that there is one person who holds the key to satisfying most everything they need. That is a lot to ask of one person, and their soul mate will inevitably fail to meet their needs. So this failure makes cheating okay in the cheaters’ minds, and they look for side relationships. Don’t fall into this trap! If you expect your partner to hold to the key to satisfying all your needs, you expect too much.

  • You Expect Sex to be Great, but Don’t Work to Make it So

Sex can become monotonous and boring in a long-term relationship, but only if you and your partner allow it to be. You expect too much if you rely on your partner to shake things up in the bedroom. Start a discussion about new toys and techniques if you’d like to try them. Your partner isn’t a mind reader. Communicate your reasonable needs and expectations.

  • You Let Technology Get in the Way

Technology can create a lot of problems in relationships. Whether it’s a distracting annoyance or the platform for a heated argument between you and your partner, technology gets in the way of a happy relationship. According to a study in the “Journal of Couple & Relationship Therapy,” couples who attempt to solve problems over text, email, or chat are less satisfied with their partners than those who solve their problems in person. It may take more time to do it the old-fashioned way—but it’s better.

  • You Expect too Much Out of Life

We are expected to make the most of life—be as successful as we can be—and that doesn’t always make us happy. Often, we set expectations for ourselves that are too high, so it’s no wonder that we also set expectations for our partners that are too high. Research suggests that it’s better to lower your expectations (of yourself and others) so that when they are exceeded, you feel happy. When it comes to great relationships, the secret is to expect the basic necessities from your partner (affection, commitment, intimacy, etc.) and consider everything else the icing on your romantic cake.

The lesson is to approach a relationship as a partnership in which both people must be willing to give and take part in every aspect. We cannot expect our partner to do it all because it is impossible.

Is Someone Trying to Take Your Job?

Trying to Take Your Job

Have you ever felt that you were in an unspoken completion over your job? What about with someone who is a friend outside of work?

It would be easy to tell if you are working in a team and are just trying to help a team member catch up on a specialty area.   This person may be able to catch up to your level quickly, simply by shadowing you. If you feel this happening, beware because your job could be at stake. Look for the following types of people at your place of employment.

Your New Office BFF

Let’s say you have been working at your company for a substantial amount of time. Suddenly, someone who you see every day wants to be your friend.   While these sudden invitations to lunch or drinks may be flattering, don’t be fooled.  This person may just want to be seen with you because of your job. On the other hand, they may be trying to get close to you to get the inside track on information to swoop down and get your job. Be aware of this saboteur.

The Idea-Stealer

Is someone else getting credit for your ideas? Is your creativity splashed all over your company with someone else’s name attached?   The next step is to protect yourself and your ideas.  If you have a genuine stroke of brilliance, write the idea down and send it to yourself in an email. You may want to back this up by loading this onto a personal flash drive.   Once you have time-stamped proof of your great idea, it will be hard for your rival to challenge you.

The Helper

You may have coworkers volunteer to help you all of the time, but be especially aware of the help you only get when your boss or other superiors are watching. If they try to one-up you in front of the boss, there is a great chance that they are trying to undercut you. Some people think this is the way to get noticed and many times it is effective.

Don’t Overcompensate

There are genuine people who really just want to help you, and there will be people at your place of business who just want to get to know you.   Just be aware of the potential presence of a job-stealer.  When these things form a pattern, and you notice an escalation, take care and take caution when dealing with this colleague. Your job could depend on it.

Are You Seeking Your Perfect Romance?

11
Perfect Romance

Is there such a thing as a perfect romance? If there is such a thing as a companion for the rest of your life, how do you know when you will meet them? But, more importantly, how do you know if you have already met them. It is a commonly expected need to find our perfect match.  Our soul mate.

If such a thing exists, what happens if we never find them? Will we ever be happy?  Can happiness find us without our perfect match?

Is it just a fantasy?

Think for a minute about your past romances. Catalog the things you loved and hated about them. Did the most charming and dashing of them forget the important things like your birthday or trivial things like taking out the trash? Or did the romantic and thoughtful sweetheart truly hate your best friend? Did your intellectual match isolate himself and you as well?  If you had the chance to build a perfect match with all of the good traits and none of the bad, would you?

Is it a mistake?

Think for a minute before you agree to build the perfect mate.  You are taking on a thankless and impossible task.  Real people aren’t supposed to be perfect. Perfection is an impossible fantasy, and expecting anyone to fit that mold is not fair.  How would you feel if you were told you had to be the perfect mate for someone else? You would drive yourself crazy just trying.

Don’t disregard your chances

In our world of online dating and multiple websites filled with potential matches, it is far too tempting to pass on someone thinking you can just order another one up on the pictorial menu.  Unfortunately, you may be cutting someone from the herd far too soon. So what if the first date was a little awkward, maybe you had fun, and your date had a great sense of humor.  Give it a chance.  If you have been in a relationship for some time and are having difficulties, remember that no one is perfect and that part of the journey is sticking with all of the trials and tribulations.

Learn by your own example

Make the most of the relationship you have. Love your current partner in the way you would like to be loved.  Be as patient, accepting, and affectionate with your partner as you would like to be treated.  You have to give love to receive. Remember, you are not perfect either and it is the imperfection that keeps life interesting.

See challenge as an adventure

An old saying states that anything worth having is worth working for. The same thing goes for a romance.  The day-to-day work involved with a relationship is not any easier if one of you is flush with cash or a dead ringer for a supermodel. Adversity comes to everyone, no matter who they are or what their circumstances are.

Don’t lose out

If you’re looking for your perfect romance, you are in for a long and lonely search.  Don’t overlook the kind, generous people who have some flaws to add to their charm.  Don’t pass up the opportunity to be loved just because you are seeking perfection.  Love completely and passionately, and you will find your own kind of perfection.

Are You a 9 – 5 Zombie?

10
9 – 5 Zombie

Do you feel like you are one of the walking dead? No, not an undead, yet sentient being slowly trudging through the day. If you have a regular job that you view as boring, you may be more zombie than human.

Here are six ways to tell if you are turning into one of the corporate undead:

  1. You Have an Insatiable and Endless Desire for Coffee

If you start your day groaning and wheezing your way to the coffeemaker because you can’t fully function without it. And if you crave it because you don’t see yourself as able to survive without your trip to the coffee shop or other source, you may be a zombie because you need the caffeine like a zombie needs brains. Caffeine serves the purpose, but would it not be better to not be so reliant on a stimulant?

  1. You Shuffle Your Feet When You Walk

Is there a bounce in your step? Do you move briskly from destination to destination? Or do you trudge as if you were destined to meet your doom? And your posture? Do you stand proud as if you own the place, or are you slumping at your desk right now? If you are a slumper, you are moving towards a zombie. This slumping is not due to some physical issue, but a mental one that pulls you down and leaves you looking broken.

  1. You Grunt, Groan, and Mumble

Corporate zombies don’t use words to communicate; instead, you groan, mumble and grunt. Zombies replace words with sounds. Whether you are a zombie or not, it is likely you know someone like this. The grunting and half answers may be normal in our teenage years, but as adults this is a sign of being a zombie.

  1. You’ve Caught the Virus That’s Making the Rounds

You find yourself coughing, sneezing, and otherwise reacting to the misery that is the virus that your colleagues have been spreading around. This illness makes you more likely to lose focus and the ability to move, and you will appear more zombie-like than ever. Remember that those you are around are those you become, so choose carefully.

  1. Your Job is So Easy You Don’t Need a Brain to Do It

You see your job as less than challenging, but it is easy. You don’t have to focus or put much effort into each task. If you feel like someone without a brain could do your job, you are most certainly a work zombie. Some jobs are simple, but a challenge keeps things exciting. If your job does not offer that challenge, create one for yourself.

  1. You Sacrifice Sleep, Sex, and Good Food for Work

The walking dead don’t need sleep or sex or food.  They certainly don’t need or eat interesting and healthy food.   If you live a life centered around work and are so stressed out you can’t sleep, let alone participate in other bedtime activities, you are most definitely headed towards permanent residency in Zombie Town. Do something to shake yourself out of the funk even if it is outside of work.

Everyone needs a job to support themselves. However, to avoid becoming a zombie, you have to change your perspective from working to live rather than living to work. If you can, find an interesting and a little more rewarding job. If you can’t switch jobs, try to create a healthier balance by going to work and leaving at a reasonable time. Don’t respond to pressure to work overtime as a sacrifice for your health and happiness. Instead, take breaks during the day.  Go outside and breathe fresh out.  At the very least, commit to eating lunch away from your desk.

Reasons You Didn’t Get a Good Psychic Reading

12
Didn't Get a Good Psychic Reading

When we only have one future, how is it possible that you can get different readings from different psychics?

Suppose you have had more than one psychic reading online or have spoken to a psychic by phone. In that case, you may have noticed some discrepancies and differences in your readings, particularly if different psychics carried out the readings.

So, why is this? If you phone to find a psychic one day and get one reading, why should you not get the same reading another day from a different psychic? If the questions you ask and the answers you seek remain the same, why is it that psychic readings can differ and vary depending on who gives them, where, and when?

There are three likely reasons for psychic readings conflicting with each other: Tools, Timing, and Temperament. Read on to see which of these was an obstacle on the road to seeing your future.

Tools

Many psychics are at their best when using a particular tool to see into the astral plane, the place where past, present, and future are revealed. For example, if your psychic was using an Ouija board, this tool specializes in communicating with entities. However, suppose your situation on earth did not involve interactions with people who have passed over, the tool that your psychic used may have been worthless for the reading you needed. On the other hand, an Ouija reading could have been giving you valuable advice for something that is of no importance to you.

Astrology is a precise psychic tool that can describe your personality and make predictions of monumental dates coming up in the future. But if you do not know your exact birth time, a psychic will not have a clear picture of where and when you will most be impacted. Giving an astrologer the wrong birth time is like giving them a completely different person to analyze. For example, if your birth time is off by four hours, some of the astrologer’s predictions could be a forecast for seven years into the future rather than for tomorrow.

Tarot card readings can vary from psychic to psychic, as there is a myriad of tarot decks, each with highlights and some with missing information. Working with a tarot reader is like having a therapist who gets to know the patterns of the cards you draw. This intimate bond will bear fruit, but jumping from reader to reader is not a good way to plan for solid predictions.

Many psychics specialize in healing. If you are not wounded, they may be getting deep into a minor wound, a little scratch on the surface of your ego. You must understand the tools your psychic uses if you are scrutinizing them for quantifiable accuracy.

Temperament

Any chance meeting has chemistry or a lack of it. The psychic reading is no exception. We just get along better with some people, and there is really no way around it despite centuries of social niceties programmed into our beings. Your psychic may not like you a whole lot and may not be invested in giving you the best reading possible. You should learn to pick a psychic with care. If a lawyer representing you is not presenting a good case, you can fire them. You can do the same with a psychic.

Timing

Your energy informs a reading. The subtlest way you phrase a question or answer can shape the patterns of what your psychic hears, sees, and feels. Having a reading a few days apart delivers a whole separate set of energy to the psychic. If this is the same psychic, the new energy only builds upon initial patterns. If this is a new psychic, the energy of today may be completely different than the energy of yesterday. Casting this new impression on a psychic for the first time also carries something else. It carries the energy of the previous psychic reading. You are forever changed by each passing moment in life. Every experience you have alters the very core of your being. You will never know what you would have done with those two hours when you see a movie. You will never know what it is like to go through life without the experience of having seen that film. Therefore, a psychic reading is high on the list of truly transformative experiences. To see a psychic after having gone through such an experience is like delivering a different person to the reading.

There is a tendency for people to seek out a new psychic reading after experiencing a primary reading that does not deliver the news of the future they want. Consider it like getting a second opinion in the medical field. When you go for your second reading, you are not the same person who got that first reading. You have been altered; your energy has been released, examined, and re-delivered. An alternate psychic reading following a disappointing or ominous first reading will almost always be good. Why is this? You exude intense energy after a powerful reading. A reading that carries challenges you are still struggling even to face, let alone embark on, will reshape the energy another psychic sees. The gloomy forecast may actually make you a more stable, methodical person and lead to a better forecast. The first reading alters you and the second reading frees your newly disciplined spirit to succeed.

Time Off

If the conflict between two readings is too much to handle, you should take time off from psychics and meditate. Allow two days to go by to ensure that the moon changes signs. Then, try again, but shop around and find a psychic who looks good from the start. Stick with the divination program and see if commitment and understanding help you get the reading you want.

Your Journey to Self Improvement

8
Self Improvement

Has self-improvement been a never-ending journey? What have you learned along the way, and how is the journey different today from when you first started? Have you read all the books and tried to make the suggested changes? Do you want to improve? The first step is deciding to make a change and then to create positive habits, but that isn’t always easy. Just know that you were the strongest swimmer in your bunch and that you came here with a purpose to do for others and yourself. You have the chance to make the best choices for yourself, and if you make mistakes, you can start over again and again.

  • Doubt and Change

The journey is all about getting there. If you remember that, you will feel confident. Often, we want to make changes for the better, but doubt creeps into our thinking and feelings. Just let go and know that your life is going to change. Changing your thoughts changes everything! You will become stronger as your mind changes. So think positive, reboot your self-worth, and take your self-improvement up a notch.

  • Anger

Let go of anger and hate, so you grow into the changes you’re making. Once you make a few changes, you will want to change even more about your life. It’s about loving yourself, and while life may be a rough ride, loving yourself is the life path the universe has planned for you from the beginning.

  • Emotions

Your emotions play a huge role in self-improvement. Don’t let out-of-control emotions control you. Getting to know your emotions is the key to controlling them. A mind is an amazing tool if you learn how to use it to your benefit. Your past is a textbook of emotions. Don’t forget to look back on it from time to time to see how far you’ve come.

  • Forgiveness

To love means forgiving, and sometimes people get stuck not being able to forgive a family member, ex, friend, or coworker. Emotions in relationships often get stuck on “Replay,” but it is not healthy to be angry at anyone for a long period of time. If they’ve hurt you and you don’t want to forgive them, consider removing yourself from their company. Never stay in abusive situations, even if the abuser is family. Move on, but don’t hold onto them with anger. Don’t give someone else that power over you. Forgiveness is self-improvement.

You are From the Stars

Self-improvement is one step at a time. The more self-esteem and confidence you have, the less room there is for anger. Remember, you are from the stars. Your energy glows. You are unique, and you overcome situations. Whatever path you choose to take, take one step and then another at your pace, and you will be helping yourself grow.

Never lose sight of your journey on this planet! You are unique in simply being who you are and the goal is to be the best you that you choose to be in life. Enjoy the journey to the best you.

How to Find a Good Astrologer

10
Astrologer

If you had a problem with your electricity or plumbing, you wouldn’t just pick from a list and hope for the best. You would do some research to find the best and most reliable one.  Just as it’s not easy to find a good handyman, it’s not easy to find a suitable astrologer.   Here is the list for you to consult when you are looking for a good astrologer.

  1. You will not be under pressure.

Some astrologers have services or goods in addition to your reading.  A good astrologer won’t pressure you to purchase these or push you to commit to something you’re not comfortable with before, during, or after the reading. However, some astrologers may make suggestions for purchases without using pressure.

  1. You will feel certain of their advice and its meaning.

If you have a good astrologer, the message they have for you will be clear.  That doesn’t mean that they will be 100% right. No one is.  But they should generally be on point.

  1. You will gain a new perspective on your life.

A good astrologer won’t tell you what you want to hear. Instead, they will tell you what you need to hear.  The information you receive will help you grow and develop as a human being. Keep in mind that the astrologer is reading what is written as of now which means there is still time to change your course if the reading is not something you desire.

  1. You will be able to understand them.

A good astrologer won’t bog down your reading with a lot of jargon and terms you don’t understand just to impress you. A good astrologer trusts in their abilities and readings without being overly complicated.

  1. There will be no judgment.

No matter what you tell them, they won’t pass judgment on you.  So you should feel that you can tell them anything and be comfortable. Though the astrologer is not quite a therapist, feel free to be as open as possible to receive the best reading as possible.

  1. They will be competent.

You should get clear answers and clear guidance in a language you understand. Then, they will explain things when you ask them. Feel free to ask for clarification any time you need it.

  1. They won’t name drop.

Even if your astrology has celebrities or important figures as clients, they won’t brag about them.  You should be able to trust your astrologer not to share personal information, even your name.

  1. They will not pretend during your reading.

A good astrologer will rely on their skills, not pretend to be psychic, and use methods other than astrology. A good astrologer will stay focused on what they do best and on what you are asking.

  1. Some things are too good to be true.

If your astrologer uses extremely low prices or things which seem too much of a bargain to be true, chances are that this is not a trustworthy astrologer. While you may not have to choose the most expensive, you really do get what you pay for most of the time.

  1. You will have to find them on your own.

There is a saying that a good business doesn’t need to advertise. There is some truth to this.    However, a good astrologer will also have good word of mouth and satisfied clients. So do your research, and you can find your perfect astrological fit.

How to Find a Reputable Psychic

Find a Reputable Psychic

Finding high-quality psychics and mediums for private consultations and local psychic readings is not an easy mission. It’s highly recommended to ask your friends for their personal recommendations. A reputable and skilled psychic impresses you with his readings, not only a reading which can easily be forgotten. Whether you’re looking for a medium, a Tarot card reader, or you’re looking for someone to give you a piece of basic advice, or just for entertainment, it’s hard to know who’s clever and who’s just after you for your money. Being a psychic or a card reader doesn’t require specific criteria, so it’s important to do your homework when you’re looking for a psychic to avoid getting stuck with a bad one. There is a list of things to consider before you start spending your money. Decide what your priorities are and what you are looking for in a psychic, and make a list of things you don’t want to see in a psychic. You can be picky as long as you are the client.

Once you’ve decided your priorities, you can start asking people in your community for their recommendations. The Pagans are probably the best place to start, but if you don’t have any Pagan friends, don’t worry. Many non-Pagans consult Tarot readers and mediums and are usually pleased to share their experiences. You can also meet psychics at a local metaphysical fair; this is also a good place to meet — and many of them will have competitive offers during a fair, so you can find different people and choose.

Local watchdog groups and the Better Business Bureau are the best places to see if any of the people on your list have been the subject of a complaint for fraud. Bear in mind that the BBB only keeps this information on file for people who are incorporated as a business — many psychics work from their homes based on referrals. Also, remember that just because there are no complaints against someone doesn’t mean that they’re not fraudsters – it just means no one has complained.

You have shortlisted candidates, and it’s time to start making phone calls. A brief phone interview should be sufficient – remember, psychics get paid for their time, so you shouldn’t spend an hour asking them questions. Ask about their background and if they’ve had any specialized training. Ask them what methods they use for their psychic readings — do they use intuition, Tarot cards, palmistry, or some other methods?

Find out if they have any clients who are to be a reference. Although many clients prefer to stay anonymous, there are always plenty who are pleased to share their experiences. If the person refuses to answer any of these questions, you should politely thank them and hang up the phone.

It’s also important to ask about their rates — most psychics charge per hour, which varies from region to region. While it may be very reasonable to charge $400 for an hour of reading in San Francisco or New York City, it can be far cheaper in the Midwest and southern US areas. By asking every psychic about pricing, you eventually get a good idea about what pricing is in your area. For example, if six psychics are charging $100 per hour, and the seventh one charges $250 for the same service, you should ask what the difference is in their service.

After you’ve narrowed your search even further, you should be able to make a decision. One of the advantages of speaking with potential psychics over the phone rather than communicating via email is that by speaking to them, you can decide who makes you the most comfortable.

Eventually, be courteous & polite – when you schedule your appointment, remember that you should always call to apologize if you can’t make it, so your psychic can book someone else in your time. Gaining a “no-show” reputation as a client could make it impossible for you to get an appointment with any other psychic in your community.

How to Love Yourself?

11
Love Yourself
We always seek someone to love; however, we forget to love the person who needs our care and attention more than anyone else. Yes! We forget to love ourselves. And the question is: how can we expect others to love us if we don’t? Even if we don’t love ourselves, people see awesome things and qualities about us that we don’t. It’s not selfish to love ourselves, but it’s appreciative! Loving ourselves gives us the power needed to be able to love others. It even helps us make the world around us a better place.

But the question is: how to love ourselves?

  1. Be yourself!

Never try to be a copy of someone else! Every human has their own potential. God gave us all gifts to differentiate us from anyone else! We were created to be unique!

Look for good qualities you have. Ask your friends: what do you like most about me? And believe me, they will tell us things about ourselves you never noticed. They will tell you about situations you were involved in and how you reacted. They will tell you they were impressed and never expected you to react this way! They will tell you: that you are so patient, generous, and kind; they will tell you many lovely things you never knew about yourself.

  1. Learn how to sell yourself!

Smile is the secret word. Say Hi! Good Morning, Thank you, and Have A Good Day!….. These words are magic! Say it in a smiley voice, change your tone, and make it cheerful!

Be considerate and make others feel they matter! They will love you, and when you know that you are loved, you will love yourself in return!

  1. Forgive yourself

Learn how to forget your mistakes and forgive yourself. So many people keep thinking about the mistakes they made during the day before falling asleep! This gives them very negative ideas about what they are. Stop saying to yourself: “I am stupid,” “I am ugly,” and “I am a bad mom”! Instead, try to work on your behavior and ethics and don’t repeat the same mistakes in the future. We are all humans, and we make mistakes. No one is perfect!

  1. Stay confident!

Stay away from people who keep criticizing you, people who make you feel inferior. But, if you have to deal with such people and you have no choice, for example, your manager at work, then you have to face it and be confident. Don’t let him make you feel less confident or reduce your self-esteem. Also, if you feel that this person is criticizing you for your good and that you really need to improve a specific skill, then don’t take it to heart and get used to the tip instead.

  1. Learn to say “NO”

You don’t have to say “YES” to everyone, especially offending people. Show them objection. Show them that you love and respect yourself. Simply ignore them! Don’t let anyone make you do something you don’t want to do! Don’t do anything just to satisfy someone! Especially if they don’t deserve it!

Above all, take care of yourself and show yourself some much needed love. This is not only better for physical and mental well-being, but will help you share your best self with the world and inspire others.

How to Choose the Right Type of Psychic Reading

8
Choose the Right Type of Psychic Reading

Psychic readings are a great way to gain insight into life’s burning questions. Whether it’s love and romance, career, or your life’s path, a reading can help answer those questions. You may have seen physics or websites advertise different methods and types of readings like clairvoyant or Tarot. With all these options, which one is right for you?

  • Astrology 

An astrology reading goes way beyond your Sun sign. A chart is compiled using your birth date and time, and the astrologer can predict your life trends based on planetary positions. It can also give you insight into favorable times to pursue specific actions like getting married or changing careers.

  • Aura

The human body’s energetic field or aura holds clues about emotions, thoughts, and memories. By looking at the aura, the reader can gain information to help you remove energetic blocks and attain greater spiritual growth. If you are looking to understand yourself from an energetic perspective, an aura reading is for you.

  • Cartomancy

This type of reading works with cards to provide you with answers to your questions. Also called oracle cards, some psychics work with angel cards, power animal cards, or earth magic cards, just to name a few. Cards are more of a tool for the psychic to use, but if you have an affinity for one of these oracles, it can help you form a greater connection with the reader.

  • Clairvoyant

Clairvoyant means “clear vision” and has come to be synonymous with the word psychic. A clairvoyant reading involves the psychic seeing images or visions related to your questions. During a reading, the psychic may describe things in symbols in order to explain what they see for your path.

  • Channeling

Channeling involves the psychic connecting with a higher frequency spiritual being or guide. The being communicates with the psychic, and those messages are relayed to the client. Not everyone is a fan of channeling, but those who are will find great insights revealed.

  • Cleromancy

You may have heard the expression “throwing the bones” or “casting lots.” This is known as cleromancy. The reader throws objects like cowrie shells, bones, dice, or stones and interprets their positions to provide a reading. Different readers may use different objects for the actual reading.

  • Numerology

If you love the simplicity of numbers, a numerology reading is for you. Like an astrology reading, numerology works with your birthdate to provide information about your personality and path. The numerologist can predict your life events based on the changing dates and numbers.

  • Palmistry

They say that your fate is in your hands. A palm reading looks at the unique lines of your palm to tell you about your life, heath, love, career, and more. Palm readers have often gotten a bad rap, but the skill used by a professional can be enlightening.

  • Runes

The Runes are an ancient Nordic alphabet, engraving each letter on a stone or tile. The psychic or reader casts them randomly or spreads them out in a pattern or “spread” to gain insight into your issues. This is similar, but different from cleromancy which is about the form the objects take, not the specific objects.

  • Spirit Guide

Many psychics, readers, and shamans have spirit guides that they work with on a regular basis. For example, a spirit guide reading has them working with their guide for messages and advice to assist you with your situation.

  • I-Ching

The I-Ching is an ancient Chinese oracle as well as a form of cleromancy. Coins are tossed, and their patterns are interpreted to form a trigram or picture of three lines. These trigrams are then analyzed to give information about the client’s question. It also helps you understand how your past, present, and future work together and evolve.

  • Mediumship

Mediumship is often confused with channeling, which refers to a psychic’s ability to communicate with those on the other side. If you are looking for messages from a loved one who has passed away, working with a medium is the best option for you.

  • Tarot

Tarot readings use a 78-card deck. The reader shuffles the cards while concentrating on your question. The cards are then laid out in a pattern or spread and interpreted. The question asked of the Tarot can vary, but be specific if specific answers are desired.

These are just a small sampling of the types of psychic readings available. In addition, some psychics use a combination of these methods in order to provide you with the best possible information. Explore these options and see which you like best!
