I've done a couple of readings now, and it seems that I only see images, symbols, and feel a lot. But are people doing readings talented on different things? I know someone that see real events in a way. And I now of those who hear things. It seems that sometimes I see real events, but combined with metaphors in a way that arn't real, they just explains thing a bit further. And then I've heard about empaths, but do they just feel alot without seeing/hearing anything, then? So what do you think about this? When do you know it's just symbolic, and when is it real?And have you ever had "identity" problems during a reading? I mean do you always percieve things from the perspective of the person that requested the reading or could you in a way view it from a perspective of someone else in their life that is important to them? Feel THEIR feelings instead?Often I can "feel" my way to if it is metaphors/ symbolic or real.
And how do you say things when you see something that might come off as insulting in a way? I had this reading and I saw this guy in that reading that I described almost in detail, and the person I did the reading to said that that guy I saw was like that, and that he did something bad to him, and he had probably been thinking of the guy ever since.
Now I can't get that guy out of my head!! lol! IP: Logged |

HMMMM
You asked a lot of questions in there, so I will do my best to try and remember them to answer the best I can.
Sometimes your brain will give you metaphors or images to link to a certain thing so you can express it to the person.
For example, oranges remind me of florida, so if I were reading a person, and kept seeing oranges in my head, I would ask them if they are moving to, or from florida, or if they have family in florida, and go from there.
You just have to kind of get a feel of what your brain links what image to what thing, do you know what I mean?
I usually get past events when I read a person. Those come very easy for me. Unfortunately, it is usually childhood to early adulthood and sometimes it makes people cry. I don't like that, but they seem to appreciate that, because I try to help them come to terms with whatever it is.
I don't get future stuff as much, sometimes I do, but not as frequently. I think because the future is not set in stone. I will and have told someone if they are to meet someone new, as in romantically, but I usually don't go there with predictions of the long term stuff.
I can tell though, most of the time whether or not someone will have a child. Luckily, no one has ever asked me that didn't end up having one. So that would be hard, if it was someone seeking to have a child, and I didn't see one. Not really sure how I would handle that.
I did have a girl that I used to read for that insisted everything was the fault of her husbands ex-wife, and I could clearly tell that she was at the root of the problem. I tried telling her nicely many, many times, but she would just argue with me about it. Eventually I stopped reading her, and she divorced the man anyway.
I guess just try to be as gentle as possible.
Hope this helps some.IP: Logged |

Yeah. It was a lot of questions! Thanks for the answer  It helped me a lot actually
You need to associate things in a way to get the meaning of it. I think what I get i usually something that has been very important to them, like an event that still affects them, but also present.
Cool that you can predict pregnancies I have learnt to root myself and to do some exercise with protection. That way I can stop myself for being too much involved.
The case I mentioned about the guy I couldnt get out of my head, I thought that he wasn't criminal. Yes, he had an attitude and he was arrogant, but I don't think he was so "bad" as he I did the reading for was thinking. But he wasn't really sure about what had happened, but I didn't want to tell him that incase I was wrong and he really did the bad thing. I know I am thinking about it all the time, because they were once friends and I think that something like that is just too bad. They must have hurt eachother both ways. The whole thing isn't fair.. D After a week I still feel bad about that guy who most likely didn't do anything.. Do you think I should tell him that I don't think the guy did it? IP: Logged |

hmmm.
Well, if you really feel that strongly about it, and you can't get it out of your head, then yes, tell him what you think of the guy.
On the other hand, if it is a really sensitive and painful thing for him to keep digging it up, then you might want to leave it alone.
I don't really know for sure what to tell you because I don't have all of the details.
I guess just try putting yourself in his position, and think if it is something you would want to know/rehash.IP: Logged |

you guys are lucky that you have honed in on these skills. anyone up 4 giving a reading to me? I am in desperate need. I've tried to do myself but I get bogged down in the symantics of it! I've tried to read my natal chart for over 3 years, I have to be "taught" things to learn them unfortunately I can't pick up on things by just reading & trying to take notes. I have to have someone explain them out to me in person.IP: Logged |

Adriana,It's really hard to discern between someone who is very intuitive and an empath. It's all about feeling. I haven't had a successful relationship (i.e. I am not married!) I think partially because I struggle when I feel the energy shift, usually after the honeymoon period. It's a bit annoying in a way because you sort of mirror how the person is feeling. So, if someone I am close to (especially someone I am in a relationship with) is feeling like they need about 5 metres of space around them ... I can't come any closer without feeling really really bad. But most other people would just go up to them and give them a hug which is probably what they need/ what I should do. It feels very unnatural for me to approach someone who is sending out leave-me-alone energy. I find it really hard to tell when it's appropriate to approach a person or not because I can feel when people are open or closed. I had a job interview once and lots of people don't expect me to, but I always shake their hand (yep I feel the hesitation especially from females), and one boss, who turned out to be the boss from hell lol... I was amazed she hired me actually. I went to shake her hand (it's an energy shift too) and she just looked at me. Just looked. No hesitation at all, just a look of ... god I dont know! I walked off feeling terrible after that... and was completely surprised when she hired me. She always did have a bad energy surrounding her. It was an unspoken dislike for me and I knew it. (hence why I am not working there any more) So I am not sure if that is empathic ability, or just strong intuition. I have had psychics tell me that I have strong intuitive ability. One described me as a vacuum cleaner who just absorbs others emotions from around me... I have only seen about 5 psychics in my life (three were tarot card readers as well).
I haven't learnt to protect myself yet though but have been advised to by the last psychic I saw in Feb 08, who was amazingly good. I can also feel emotion through watching the news, it is really upsetting sometimes. Stories on animal cruelty just make me want to curl up into a ball and cry. I can't watch anything to do with people being cruel to animals. I am sure some of that is also due to intuition and compassion as well.
