Psychics: Embarrassed? Part 2

What are some reasons people might be afraid or embarrassed to either ask for a reading or let others know they go to a psychic? I think people are basically afraid of being seen as weak. Asking for help in any form is often perceived that way. It’s a shame that the loudest voices in our world are so often the angry or scared voices. It takes guts or courage to make decisions on our own especially when our decisions or choices may not seem to fit with everyone else.

It’s natural for us to look around us and find out what others are doing in their lives to help us make choices about how we want to live our own lives. There is nothing wrong with this technique of learning. We can avoid mistakes this way. Watch others and learn from their successes and failures. The problem arises when we loose perspective and begin to think others actually know what’s best for us. We are the only one living our lives, therefore, we are the only ones who can really have all the variables clearly in mind to make the best choices for our own lives.

Even when you go to a psychic you are still responsible for taking only what makes sense of their reading and letting go of what doesn’t fit. that’s always your responsibility, even with a doctor or a lawyer or any other professional. Psychics can be so helpful in simply validating what you already know in your life. When you think about it, a good reading is one that can leave you feeling like it was a waste of time because that psychic didn’t say anything you didn’t already know. I always smile to myself when I’m doing my psychic message thing (connecting with someone I’ve never met and describing their personality and how they respond to various messages from my client).

I’ve never met that person before, yet I’m telling my client how they are, their way of thinking, how they believe, how they respond to my client’s questions and all of that, as though I’ve known them forever. My client usually forgets that I’ve never met them and they sometimes get frustrated with me saying, “Well, sure she would say that.” I can just about here the “Duhhhhhh” That’s when I know I’ve really connected with that person and it’s really cool.

Anyway, other reasons for being embarrassed for going to see a psychic might be because of how some religions think it’s a sin, or “of the devil” and such. Again, we each need to understand our own responsibility for our own decisions and thus our own lives. Psychics are simply people tuning into something that many are not aware of yet. Not all that different from dogs being able to hear a dog whistle. Do we think dogs are scary, crazy or strange that they can hear that “silent” whistle?
