Psychics/Mediums........
Ok I know this is nothing to do with sa, but I just wondered what people on here thought of the whole psychic thing? I went to a medium about a month ago for the first time and it was amazing- ive always been obsessed with the paranormal since i was a little girl and always wanted to visit a psychic, but coz my dad is so religious i just never did. I plan to go again next week,lol. Has anyone else on here ever been to a psychic?

I've always been sort of tempted to see a psychic or medium, just out of pure curiosity. Have always been pretty open-minded towards such things.

Yes, the one on tv i think is called Sally Morgan, she's amazing. The one i saw told me alot of things that were personal to me, i have a recording of the whole thing- but ive found a spiritualist centre near me, so im going to visit one of their mediums hopefully next saturday. |

Just a word of advice, DONT pay them too much money, most of them are con artists:)

I've only been once about 6 years ago, I went on a friend's recommendation as a sceptic and came out slightly scared, amazed and open minded. I understand some people have the ability to "cold read" a person but some of the things she told me were accurate and spot on about dead relatives and friends. (I'm an atheist by the way). I phoned her up from my mobile phone when I arranged an appointment and didn't give her my full name. She was a reputable local psychic apparently... Maybe there's something in it science has yet to understand but will do in the future hopefully.

ive had a number of readings done over the past few years and I've found most of the information I've been given has been super accurate , amazing stuff .. I've even been practising developing my own psychic abilities , i must admit I've not been to successful as yet as I'm finding it hard to fully relax and empty my mind for meditation ( far to many random thoughts kicking around in there ):hypnotized:
as one of the above posts mention , be careful about who you choose to read for you as there are many a charlatan out there .. personal recommendation is always the best way well worth a shot , :thumbpur: |
Re: Psychics/Mediums........
I believe psychic healing works, but only because the patient wants it to work / believes they are cured. Like a placebo

Did anyone watch the 'seance' that Derren Brown held with some students in a disused mental hospital, a few years back? It said a hell of a lot for the power of suggestion. I'm not comparing that to people who've had genuine experiences with psychics and mediums, btw.

Re: Psychics/Mediums........
^those students thought they were having a 'genuine experience'.

oh dear... last time i broached this subject I offended two of the three people in the room. so sorry in advance.
but regrettably here's an abridged version of my two pences worth. these people are about the most vile self deluded , arrogant charlatans in existence .there is more then one person who has offered over a million pounds to anyone who can prove their claims. I find it disgusting . especially mediums who offer false advise from beyond the grave. any magician worth his salt can recreate their remedial parlor tricks. sorry. |

I'm guessing you're sceptical then, but how would you explain it if somebody you'd never met or contacted before in your life knew things about you they couldn't have feasibly known? I know it's not exactly a black and white issue and there are probably many factors involved. I just find the subject intriguing |

Con artists in my opinion - but the science is there to back that up to.
Watch Derren Brown, he explains it all very well. |

What is more ridiculous, that all psychics are fakers or self-deluded... or that there are ghosts and spirits floating around, stopping by to have stunted conversations with mediums/psychics?? There is 0 evidence. None. When there is clear evidence I will happily change my views :)
