Ever talk to someone who you know is rather psychic? How does that affect you?

My best friend is a Pisces sun-Mercury/Snake. She's borderline psychic. I'm a bit intuitive. We have moon-Mercury DW in Aqua/Pisces.

Talking to her is like an art form. When we talk to each other, it's like we are always tacitly acknowledging all the little psychic blobs that we each know are on each other's minds but neither of us wants to openly discuss for reasons we mutually agree are better dealt with in the shadows. It's almost like our communication style is walking on a tightrope. Neither of us will call each other if we think our minds are not sharp enough to stay on the rope (we've actually discussed this.)

My husband is also psychic sometimes. His moon is trine my Mercury~ maybe that gives him a window to my unexpressed thoughts. This can play out in unnerving ways, however. Sometimes he reacts to what's on my mind without me saying one thing. Like if I talk about going strawberry picking but, in the back of my head, I'm wishing I could go shopping and blow a lot of money on new clothes, he'll get agitated as if I asked about the new clothes instead of the strawberries.

My question for general discussion is~ how do the psychic gifts of people in your life play out and affect your relationships?

And if you are psychic, do you find that it sometimes causes problems? Like, do you sometimes react more to what you sense and cannot verbalize, instead of what's happening on a mundane level...and do you struggle to bridge that gap when explaining yourself?

About half of the planets are in Pisces today, transiting my 8H. I thought it'd be a good time to ask....

I am more intuitive than psychic. Yes it can be a little like 'i can't explain why but thats how it is or thats what i am going to do'. I lie straightaway when i realise that this is neither the time nor the appropriate moment in existence to talk about the truth. eg. I realised that my mother was going to expire. She was pretty healthy then. No one would have thought that anything like this could happen to her. But I got this pre-cognitive dream regd this event. Of course i didn't know the time though. So i didn't let my sis, dad and any of my relations on it for almost a year or more. Its like you are carrying the burden even before its going to happen. But others are not ready for it so there is no point in throwing it at them. The time is not ripe. Ofcourse you can pray and change it if HE so concedes.

A couple of my friends are psychic. And they take some decisions which do not seem to have any logic and only in hind sight do i realise that they were perfect. I get the explanation later. So it can be a little irksome and also confusing in the present. On the other hand, they tend to call me so fast that its unbelievable. Say like i think of them right now and i would have hardly finished it, i.e. may be 2 seconds and there is a phone ring. And this has happened n no. of times. I was in my office once when this incident happened. I did not have a mobile (this was long ago) or a direct landline on my desk then. So i had given my boss's no to my friends. I was drawn to the telephone and just when i was very close to it and wondering why i had gone near my boss's table i got a call from this psychic friend. It was so obvious that even my boss asked me whether i was expecting a call. Or sometimes i won't be even thinking of them. It could be just a heartfelt feeling that i want to meet them or have a discussion over something and pop ...... they will turn up and say we are staying for the day/night, let's have lunch or dinner or whatever and chat. So the conclusion that i have drawn from these experiences is that they sense it beforehand, foresee it. BUT if they don't want to do something then it can be a wet blanket. Like if i feel that we could go for an outing and one of my friends is just not into it then it will be like 'i have a mtg with so and so' etc. And its no lame excuse. It would be there alright. But i get a strong feeling (me intuitive remember?) that its fixed before hand to avoid this anticipated outing. Very smart.

One of this person will help others including me to take decisions regarding some important factors due to this gift of being able to see down the path in advance. Like once i was friends with a lady and this person came to visit me and i told him about her. He said be careful she will trod all over you. I was like "What? She doesn't appear to be like that". And i forgot about the whole thing. Then after a couple of years she tred over me alright. And pretty neatly too.

Wow! Oh I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I think I also knew that my mother wasn't long for this world when I was a child.

And I understand exactly what you mean about having to just lie or cover up what you know, for the sake of others.

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

The friend you mentioned at the bottom of your post sounds like my best friend. She always knows in advance who the trustworthy people are, and who is going to let someone else down. It's hard for my friend because people think she is just being snobbish...until everyone else realizes that she was right all along. Sometimes she knows months or years before other people, what a person's true character is like.

I don't think of myself as psychic but I have had psychic experiences. Yet I tend to have a good people sense, though I attribute this to finely honed instincts that I developed out of necessity growing up in a dysfunctional home and then on the streets that allowed me to "cold read" someone with sometimes surprising accuracy (like I once picked out a drug dealer in a bar without talking to him at all). Nevertheless I've had a few experiences where I can feel danger (as in predatory men) even before it's visible, too, and that defies any form of cold reading.

That said, I thought I'd share something that happened when I was 14. I was in a very small Bible Belt town (so small there was no city government and most maps don't list it) and rumors ran rampant of me being a satanic witch, though it hadn't gotten too bad yet (still, there was an "eyewitness" to my sacrificing cats on Halloween...). Not everyone believed this and my infamy both amused & impressed some of the more free spirited kids and because so many were curious about me I got invited to a high school kegger (despite that this was a dry county in addition to those attending being underage, and I did drink there after paying my dollar, btw) which my high school cousin took me to and they liked me well enough. So when some of my cousin's friends decided to try some shrooms I was able to experiment with them. And I got really high, and memory of it is a bit on the hazy side (actually some moments crystal clear while others are like trying to remember a fading dream). There were also mystical and high strangeness elements to it as well (like when I shook the "golden sparks" out of my arm that burned flesh but nothing else and left a blister on my foot).

Anyway, the part I wanted to share was where the others tripping on shrooms asked me to stop replying to their thoughts (I remember them SAYING things that I responded to, but they insisted they only THOUGHT it) and when a friend of one of them stopped by he was amused we'd been doing the shrooms that grew out of the cow patties, and even more so that they were complaining about me reading their minds. I told him I thought they were speaking out loud and couldn't tell that they were private thoughts and then I noticed (whether instinctive cold reading or actual psychic awareness I can't say) that he seemed very scared but trying to hide it. I was curious as to why but it was pretty obvious that the thought I could read minds was what disturbed him, and mixed in with how obsessed and ashamed almost everyone was about sex I toyed with him mischievously about what a dirty mind he had...I don't recall how much detail I went into, as I say I was tripping hard, but he FLED...and the next day (and still reeling from the shrooms though I was at least sober by then when I got a phone call over it) the rumors of a demon in me had already started to spread...and probably grow. I mean everyone ALREADY believed I was a witch who worshiped Satan anyway and many thought Chick tracts made perfect sense...and this just made it worse.

All in all I'm glad we live in the modern age or my family might've had to save me from being hung or burned at the stake by the good Christian folk. In fact both me and my cousin remembered that as we saw this (separately) on Firefly (of what happened after a psychotic River read a preacher's mind) many years later as adults:

^ 'Love that story!! And your movie clip, too. Yeah but she's OUR witch.

I've always been drawn to the occult but was always, and still am, a bit scared of witches. Maybe it's my sun square Pluto; I kind of shudder at the thought of people casting spells or, in fact, exerting any kind of control over me (aside from children manipulating me with their cuteness, I welcome that! )

That being said I don't think you are a bad witch, PJ. (Picturing Good Witch Glenda as I type that, obviously.) And I agree with you completely about the absurdity of persecuting people just because they are attuned to the spirit world or what have you.

I went through a phase in college when I was highly receptive to all kinds of psychic phenomena including channeling my mother so I could type fast, and using telekinesis to crumple paper. One night, I had a feel for my own heightened sensitivity enough to ask a co-worker whom I had never met before if she was willing to let me "try out" my psychic powers on her (I've always been eccentric, yes.) She agreed and I started rattling off all kinds of stuff about her life, until I realized she was bothered by it. I mentioned her tragedies with dogs around age 13 (she had, like, three dogs die then) and she shook her head as if to shake me off.

Any time I saw her on campus after that she ignored me, which hurt my feelings and dissuaded me from wanting to cultivate my "sixth sense."

As for your cold reading of people, I think I do a little of the same, but unconsciously, without verbalizing it even to myself. My husband does it consciously. So we can walk into a room of strangers, and he can say, "That guy over there is a loose cannon, stay away from him"...but I probably would have done it anyway, without being able to pinpoint, as my husband can, exactly what the person is doing that's "off." I just seem to physically move around according to the subtle (and not-so-subtle) cues I'm getting about where the friendly and non-friendly vibes are coming from.

But that you could locate a drug dealer by looks alone is remarkable.

Have you ever read Malcolm Gladwell's book Blink? He talks about the revelations in small fluctuations of the facial muscles; some researchers catalogued something like 200 different facial expressions and their corresponding emotions. If they look at a video of a person frame by frame they can analyze their deeper thoughts and emotions; they can see a split-second revelation of rage, they see perversion, despair, love, contempt. It's hard to convey the legitimacy of their technique here, but I recommend the book...in essence, it argues that the face reflects the mind, and if you are reading faces intently, with your own reliable decoding system born from experience, it's almost like being "psychic."

Oh, and one more story!

One sunny day a guy rode up our driveway on a bicycle, and just from the casual look on his face, I was terrified. Panicked, I called for my husband, and he looked out the window and agreed with me. He went out to talk to the guy, who was a bit spaced out and said he was looking for a lawnmower to buy. My husband just told him to leave.

I think most people would have just left it at that. But my husband and I talked it over and decided the guy was definitely a threat. So my husband called the police, gave them his cell phone number, and then set off in his truck to follow the guy.

The police called back on our land line, after my husband left, snickering and sounding dubious about our shoddy allegations.

But meanwhile my husband watched this guy approach and circle many houses. When he went behind one house and disappeared for a while, my husband called the police again from his cell and insisted they come and investigate immediately.

The guy came out of the house with a big bag of stuff and rode off down the road with my husband following. Finally the police intercepted him; my husband made sure they looked into the bag (and pulled out jewelry) before leaving.

As it turns out, the guy was a notorious robber, 'had been serially burglarizing houses in our area. When my husband went into the police station to give his witness testimony, he got something like a standing ovation, and people came out of their offices to shake his hand and thank him. And the people who got robbed (while my husband was right there watching and calling the police) were very grateful to get their stuff back.

Nothing big-letters PSYCHIC for me, but there's a lot of hedge intuition and precognitive dreaming in my family.

My mother and I (another Pisces Sun, her birthday's two days after mine) constantly call each other at the same time. I'll be thinking, "I should call Mom," or will be reaching for the phone when it will ring and she says that the same happens on her end.
In fact, if it's a family member or close friend calling, I usually know who it is before the caller ID displays anything.

I have good "hunches".
When I was a teenager on the job hunt, I'd get a pressure on the side of my head facing the storefront of a place I knew I should apply to. Following that, I never failed to get a job offer.

When lost or trying to find my way, I get a similar pressure on the side of the direction I should go. I thought that it was just some sort of latent memory, but it also worked quite well when I got off at a random Tube stop in London and found my way back to the dorms I was staying in.
(Though perhaps it still was - London felt very familiar to me.)

When my ex-husband decided that he'd no longer like to be married, I and the girls were up in the Great Lakes area of NY. It was the spring of 2008. Everyone said, "Stay in the area for a bit, get your bearings," but I just knew I had to go back to the DC area. It was like that pressure in my head, but all over my body.
I did, and everything that I needed to happen did - beautifully.
We got down there at just the right time to find a place, for me to start taking classes, and get a part time job at that University just in time for a full time position to open which I had just enough experience and exposure (because of the month and a half in the part time job) to land right before the financial collapse happened and state hiring was frozen.

When I "listen to myself", that sort of intuition's pretty much always buzzing around inside.

--

For my extended family, my mother (at least) has had a dream before each of her close family members passed.

--

My husband, on the other hand, has legitimate psychic flashes. He's told me of several instances in which he's known details of something about to happen. They're usually pretty mundane (that he was about to win a raffle and what he was going to win, that someone's going to do XYZ, etc) and personal.
I'm afraid I may have scared him off of telling me more.
He shared that he had one of those flashes about his death - in his 60s due to a plane crash - and I...was upset.
He won't mention it any more and has kind of backed off of sharing anything regarding any other "knowings" :-/

Yes. My bestfriend, is very intuitive or psychic like they say. We don't see each other that often, about 4 times a year but she knows things that is going on in my life, which I find a bit creepy. It gets annoying, because I am a secretive person & I like my privacy. Example: I went to the doctors last week for an 'embarrassing' problem. I haven't told anybody about it but when we talked on the phone, she brought up the subject of health in the convo...She asked:'So how is your sexual health going' It freaked me out because we NEVER talk about those things. I lied and said everything was fine but she somehow knew.
Another example:
Last year I had a huge crush on this Peruvian guy. I felt so ashamed & I NEVER tell anyone who I'm crushing on. Somehow out of the blue she said with a big grin on her face:'Someone in this group finds Peruvians hot...Right Millyx?' & she winked at me. We never talk about peruvians, so I don't know how she knew. And I never talked about that guy to anyone. It was my best hidden secret.


She says that she dreams about me often & that in her dreams she gets some information. Why in the world does her dreams contain my secrets? I have no idea. At first I thought that it was just pure coincidence, but it has been happening a little too often... Last year, I was hiding my depression, but she knew. She said that she dreamt of me crying in my bed during the night...Which I did, in secret. I hid it so well, not even my mom or aunt who lived with me saw or heard me crying during the night.

I sometimes think that me and my best friend have a telepathic link. When we talk on the phone we blurt out the exact same sentences at the same time. I sometimes tell her to stop reading my brain! I know this might sound crazy but once, to test if this telepathy thing was real, I sent her mental messages throughout the day for her to call me. She never calls me, we only talk on the phone once a month, & if we talk I'm the one who usually calls. Strangely it worked, I was surprised she called me first for the first time. She told me: 'I had a feeling you wanted me to call you, so I did.'

WoW! This robbery story is very thrilling. That goes to show your hubby is not only psychic but also very brave.

Aawww! You lost your mother when you were a child? I am very sorry for that.

You guys' experiences of reading people's minds are very interesting indeed. One of the two person i mentioned about is like that. But what he said was that he just drops a sentence or two regarding something close to others. Something which they don't expect others to know and then observes their expression. They are generally perplexed and the smart ones get the msg that this guy is not a one to be messed around with. But he doesn't go deep into telling them all because that can spoil things for both.

Thanks for the replies!

@mockingbird: So interesting, all of it! The way you describe the pressure in your head reminds me of a conversation I was having with my husband last week, about animals who can find their way home over long distances. I've never researched it, I was only guessing, but I wondered if they had a keen sense for the magnetic pull of their home, like the way the energy leans. Then, when transported far away, they could just feel which way to move to get that inner sensor closer to the exact "tilt" of their home.

So when I read about the pressure in your head I thought maybe it's like you can feel something like the "barometric" pressure of emotional phenomena building up in your life, and figure out where to go to get that relieved; or part of you could feel how you would resonate with the personality of the stores that would hire you. And the resonance feels like pressure?

I know there isn't much point in speculating except I find it fun to wonder aloud... =)

Needless to say I hope your husband's psychic flashing just went haywire that time he envisioned dying tragically. All psychics are wrong sometimes, even Edgar Cayce wasn't at 100%.

@MillyX

LOL about your friend knowing everything though I'm sorry it's occasionally a pain. But I was picturing it like a sitcom, with her being all bubbly asking about your innermost thoughts (again) and you rolling your eyes and trying not to be mad. hehehe

I also occasionally have psychic dreams and for once, I was ahead of the game with my best friend because of that. I dreamed that she was pregnant...and my psychic dreams have a particular feel to them which tells me, they are psychic...so I told her about the dream, like *nudge nudge care to tell me you're expecting yet?* and she just avoided the issue because she didn't want to be pregnant or even talk about it yet with anyone.

It's okay though, everything worked out fine and she's glad she has her daughter.

One more thing I wanted to mention about my friend is, she's either clairaudient or has supernaturally good hearing. She can hear people talking when they are whispering over a hundred feet away. She can't talk openly with people about information she gathers this way...she just knows things she's not supposed to know.

Glad I don't have that problem, actually! =)

@Love&Light

Thank you, yes, my mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer when I was ten, but for a few years before that, I got a strong sense that something was dangerously off within her. She died when I was 14, not a child any more. I think it would have been much harder if I had been younger, so there's that much to be grateful for. <3

Your friend sounds like an interesting character! I'm a bit jealous, it'd be very entertaining for me to see his antics with people.

Putting this on my To-Do list: Make more real life friends who are psychic.

(((((Faith)))))) I can relate to how you might have felt. Because i lost mine much later still i felt the pinch but you were just a kid so it must have been difficult. Because a mom is a mom.

Yes antics indeed. Once we had gone out on a small trip and our group was invited at a guy's home with whom this friend had some acquaintance. Just before we entered he told me not to eat there. And made me say that i was fasting while all the others ate nicely, including him. We had just been on a hill treck and were drenched and starving. His mother and sis in law kept insisting that i have something and i was like nope i can't, i am fasting. I could have killed him for that. Ha...ha.... They were even kind to offer me clothes to change. But i was like no i am quite comfy with this and anyways we are going back home so will change immediately. Later he told me that this acquaintance was deeply and strongly into black magic and since i was into spiritual practices then it would have affected me adversely. Then later over the years my friend sc**wed this guy nicely. He is also a guide(shaman) and so he made him change his ways for the better. Turned him over to devotional practices. His black magic was for no good. Would have had very bad effect on him down the years.

Do make real life psychic friends but just be psychologically prepared because they will be able to read your mind like a book and your life too if they are more advanced.

I just recalled, I played a game with some kids in high school where we'd stare at each other's neck...we could feel it and we'd turn (unless concentrating highly on something). It was weird, I guess it worked a lot because we usually did it bored in class. I remember it, too, the feeling of almost like heat, and sometimes I even knew WHO (once I knew it was 2 and it was both of them) was doing the staring.

I got to wondering how I knew that and I realized it was just how watchful & wary he was (of course I'd been around many drug dealers before by then) he had that hungry look, he was looking for something and it wasn't sex (perhaps because he looked more at faces unlike most guys, tended to look at guys more, and didn't show any arousal while doing so), and he left with more than one person briefly before returning where he was. And then I found confirmation when one guy I knew went to buy from him. I'd say it was several subtle clues that allowed my subconscious to pick it up.

I kinda regret not acting on it once. While a runaway I saw 2 men walking side by side and I knew they were bad news, and I hated them instantly, and I had a strong urge to get my krew to kill them (I never did that, ever, but I believe they'd have done it if I tried to). I repressed it because of all the idiotic Christians who thought I was a vile Satanist and it made me doubt my own feelings about them were true. I don't know how much was cold reading and how much was psychic but as I ran it through my mind trying to figure out why they inspired both fear & hatred I realized they had a predatory look, they were HUNTING, and they were too "in step" (walking in rhythm, like soldiers). Later I saw drawings of them up as wanted serial rapists (they'd both rape the same woman at the same time), so too bad I didn't act...OTOH, if I had, I'd have always wondered if I didn't get 2 innocent men killed so I don't fully regret not acting as instinct demanded.

But it could've been psychic, too, because when I told this to a guy he said he had a similar feeling. He was a scarred guy who had once participated in an underground railroad helping kids escape pimps, abusive parents, and the like, and he faced retaliation for it, including a savage beating (lost teeth, fractured bones) by several corrupt police officers (though he said one deputy helped him slyly with heads up whenever the cops were looking for him again), and he was also a political anarchist who stood up for the underdog. Though he was pretty much "retired" by the time I met him he helped get me off the streets (and I remember I came close to stabbing him but he stopped several feet away to talk and he told me later that he had a very strong feeling not to come closer).

So this guy was very much spiritually aligned (and suffered greatly) standing up for freedom and weal. Yet one day he was in a gym locker room and in the process of taking his shirt off (or putting it on, I forget) when a guy came in and even without seeing him he was filled with a murderous hatred, which was so unusual & surprising (especially as he'd only HEARD him walk in) that he took a closer look at him and noticed the guy was staring at him with undisguised hatred without an apparent cause. So he asked at the desk who the guy was who just walked in and with that name did research and found he was a prison guard with a history of multiple accounts of abuse that he got away with, one time supposedly bragging that he "turned a black man white" (using scalding water to burn him that way). He suspects that his spirit, which was also very active and willful much like his own (as opposed to most people who just "go with the flow"), was attuned to authoritarianism and inflicting woe, the exact opposite of his own, so that their spirits saw & recognized each others as foes on some other plane of existence and their conscious minds so attuned to their respective spirit/plane of existence reacted to it, feeling mutual hatred...and he suspects I may have done something similar when I saw those 2 serial rapists (before I consciously knew what they were), my spirit recognizing them as monsters to be put down and only stopped by my mind asking myself, "What if I'm just being as delusional as those Christians accusing me of devil worship?"

I terrify most people who try to read me with psy... although I cant imagine why

They usually fall into a ravenous dream-state and return chanting "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"...

Whatever the hell that means... I have no idea

@Pixie

That "heat" that you and your friends could feel reminds me of when I look at birds in my yard whose backs are turned to me, and they usually react to my stare. Maybe they are feeling my energy coming at them like a weak but palpable laser? hmm...

I remember seeing a book at the library called something like, They Know When Someone Is Looking At Them. Maybe it's a heat thing. Or some other sensation so subtle that it's almost psychic.

Thanks for the very interesting stories of criminals and tough people, though I'm sorry that your life sucked so much that you had to interact extensively with the underworld.

'Makes me wonder if psychic cues and hyper-perceptiveness are underpinning a lot of the "senseless" violence that goes on...people simply reacting to others on a psychic level, as when you knew those serial rapists ought to be...well, immobilized at the very least.

He suspects that his spirit, which was also very active and willful much like his own (as opposed to most people who just "go with the flow"), was attuned to authoritarianism and inflicting woe, the exact opposite of his own, so that their spirits saw & recognized each others as foes on some other plane of existence and their conscious minds so attuned to their respective spirit/plane of existence reacted to it, feeling mutual hatred...

So interesting. Yeah, the first thing that comes to mind for me when I think of spiritual leaders is Gandhi.

But there are also fighting spiritual leaders...I mean, martial arts are kind of at that crossover....

And I'm thinking of how our justice system is largely a flop, so we probably have lots of vigilantes stepping up to carry out justice on their own terms, though unrecognized.

Julian Assange has said something like, he is motivated to crush the people who harm innocents. (I understand, it's debatable whether or not he's done so.) Or movies like Slingblade, inviting people to consider the morality of those who may commit what seem like heinous crimes, but could have been heroism.

Anyway, it's interesting to think of the energetic web underneath a lot of interactions...and how little legitimacy that carries with strangers in the jury.

Yes. ((( Love&Light )))) Sorry you are motherless too! I lost my dad as well and people expected me to get over it lickety split because I was 31 and have my own family. To me, it's weird that our culture has degenerated so much that people can't understand why adults might mourn the loss of their parents.

I kind of believe in black magic though I naively cling to the idea that, if I don't pay attention to it, it can have no power over me. Just like if I hide my eyes no one can see me? lol

Ok! Yeah, btw a person on this forum read my energy once (from afar) and the reading corresponded to a "t" with my physical symptoms and how I felt inside. Since then I've been motivated to clean up my energy just in case someone peeks again.

It's nice to have the motivation but kind of freaky, all things considered.

Ahh, Call of Cthulhu joke there,

The main narrator is a big time skeptic of the paranormal, and upon following a trail of very unusual happenings, up to and including the ravings of psychic-dreamers... he begins to question his own sanity

Yes freaky indeed. Thats the reason i keep one other guy(who is not my friend but i know him) at an arms length and come down heavily on him when he crosses his limits. He is not a psychic exactly but just like one because he can read others' minds. He with his guide performed some ritual i believe to get this. These powers, which we call siddhis in India, can be a huge nuisance when you get them before being matured enough to take them in a stride. They are a big no no for any genuine spiritual seeker and are received anyway as a by product on the path. But some go about doing everything in the book to acquire them and that can be irksome. Even after getting them naturally a wise seeker doesn't bother about them much. My friend is one such guy so i 'tolerate' him.

^ Life in India sounds super interesting. I'm a bit jealous that you live there! No one talks about black magic here in Pennsylvania.

I wish people around me were more attuned to spirituality. Then I might have fascinating stories like yours. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry! Its not exactly like that. People in spirituality and occult etc are into all this. And our country is portraid to the world as into these kind of things. But the actual truth is most guys, specially in cities and metros are far from this. My own family and friend circle isn't into it. They have some vague idea but don't know properly. Were they to really know about my spiritual side friends they would go or or or or just

Besides black magic and gurus etc are commercialised many times and you get all sorts of them here. Left and right. So the chances of getting fooled are a plenty. Everybody knows about them and its an in thing like some fashion. The genuine ones are very few.

Yes, I have gotten that impression about India, mainly from reading Autobiography of a Yogi and other books from Indian authors.

I love Bollywood movies and I love how there is always some kind of religious or spiritual theme involved (although I can't think of any spirituality in 3 Idiots...hmmm)

I was so comforted to read that I'm not the only one who mostly keeps her interests in the occult mostly to herself.

I would love to spend time in India...even getting to know the charlatans sounds wonderfully adventuresome to me.
