Do you beleive in psychics??

Question

I've had a few encounters with psychics which were a bit of a let down - they came out with lots of names etc which meant nothing to me and information which was not accurate.

Derek Acorah (we saw him live in Cardiff in 2004) guessed my name without me telling him and told me a lot of stuff about my family, but some of it has turned out to be inaccurate when I checked it with my mum. He said I'd meet a guy called Mark from Pontypool and we'd have twin girls. Well I met MIKE from Gillingham in Kent and we're having a baby boy. So umm a bit wrong there . . .

But a spiritual healer who I saw earlier this year was fantastic - she worked on my infertility and I got pregnant that month for the very first time in my life after trying for many years and being told I'd need IVF!

So I really want to beleive it.

What do you all think?!?

The spiritual healer didn't charge me any money for her services. she simply came to see me a couple of days a week, played some relaxing music on the CD player, got me to relax and envisage a green field and laid her hands on me. For whatever reason I felt so much better afterwards and at the end of that month I was pregnant for the first time in my life (I'm 34 and been infetile for many years!).

So I really want to beleive she helped me.

I had asked God for a child over and over again and nothing happened. It was like He wasn't listening.

Answer 1

They may exist, but i don't trust them. THe phoney ones just want your money. If they were really pyschic, they wouldn't have to ask you for your credit card number.

Answer 2

Yes, but most psychics are "psychic mediums" , i have read all the answers you have received and find that there are alot of people left negative answers, people only leave negative answers when they don't understand the religion or are affraid of the unknown, i do however beleive there are alot of fakes out there which unfortunately don't make things better for the rest of us mediums, as for derek acorah he is an excellent medium but when he was on most haunted he had to "put on a show" because thats what he was paid for "to act", as for him telling you that you were going to have twin girls, you never know whats going to happen in the future, but sometimes we do get things wrong, he may have seen the twin girls but they maybe a friend who has them or maybe a family member, buit you will hear of someone having twin girls at some point, A spiritual healer is also a medium but spirit work through the medium, they use us as tools, all mediums to some degree are healers, please don't be put off by what other people say about spiritualists, if you really want to beleive in it, look deeper into the religion, then make your own mind up, i'm 35 and have been a spiritualist since i was 15, and over the past few yrs i have seen some really excellent mediums, one who is called david traynor he has a website www.davidtraynor.com i have seen this guy working and he is spot on with everything, i hope you find what your looking for, and i hope i've help a little

Answer 3

A big name psychic like him- i've seen him on Most Haunted. I think they get burned out after a while, and too, you take different avenues with every decision you make, no matter how small. So for a truly gifted psychic (and they are out there.) to say something like "You will meet such and such, and where, blah de blah," well it can't really be done that way. You did however, meet a man that you are having a child with. So that was destined to happen either way. I think that healers are generally in the same boat with psychics. A lot of them aren't as gifted as they want to be, and usually those are the ones practicing. Real psychics and healers don't get rich or get book and television deals. Remember that.
Hope i have helped. Blessed Be.

Answer 4

I wouldn't trust most of them. Being psychic isn't what people think really. It's more to do with good intuition than actually being able to "see" into the future. Different "psychics" use different methods so I guess I would trust one whose methods were suitable for me. Anyone can guess things about you but the best kind of "psychic" is the kind who will read into your life, see how you feel now and tell you options you may have and advise which are best to take. So, in all, whether I trust a particular psychic or not would depend on the person.

BTW, please take no notice of those who say not to do it because it's against the bible or whatever. Those people obviously haven't figured out that Jesus' "miracles" were just as much sorcery as any other kind of magic.

Answer 5

Since you're asking, I think it's all bulls***. Most of the "hits" are good cold-reading skills. Search the internet for "cold reading" descriptions and see if they fit your past experiences. And have you noticed how many of these people want money?
A good, if sometimes a bit harsh, skeptical Web site is the Amazing Randi site, www.randi.org.
For many years, Randi has had a $1 million reward for anyone who can demonstrate, under controlled conditions, ANY clairvoyant powers or supernatural abilities. This has never been claimed -- ever.
Test guidelines are drawn up jointly by the claimant and the foundation, and the $1 million is kept in escrow.

Answer 6

Micah 5:12 say "I will destroy your witchcraft and you will no longer cast spells." Witchcraft will past away,, but the word of God will always stand. 2 Chronicles 20:20 say "early in the morning they left for the Desert of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah and people of Jerusalem! Have faith in the LORD your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful." Believe in God's prophets and it shall come to pass.

Answer 7

Well I don't as far as I can gather psychics are very good observers and tell you what they believe you want to hear. A lot of what they do is guess work - a lot like what they do on those silly religeous channels on sky.

Then that is only my opinion!

Answer 8

derick acorah is a big fat phoney

i know for a fact that people that go to his shows are checked out ie
with the tickets they trace your home find out about you by posing as questinarie people to you and your neighbours it sounds complcated and they do all this according to where you sit it is very easy to trace and check up on stuff about people in that situation
they dont do this to everyone but then they dont go up to everyone in the audience, do they

Answer 9

Psychics are con artists who use a technique known as "cold reading" find out things about you. If it were possible to read peoples minds or predict the future it would change the world. They can't and it doesn't. Don't waste your money on these charlatens.

Answer 10

Save your money and your time....."fortune tellers" have been parting folks and their money for a LONG time and they must have their "moments" or else they wouldn't be around.
Learn from you past, don't be afraid of your future and live each day like it was your last. Nothing good can possibly come from knowing the future....its a fact!

Answer 11

If you continue the direction you are going, I think you are headed for deep trouble. Far more trouble than good.
I recommend that you stay as far away from them as you can get.
Sorcery
(Includes any of the following:) Divination/Magicians/Witchcraft/Wizards/Soothsayers/Necromancers/
Fortunetellers/Astrologers/Familiar Spirits/Charmers/Black Magic/Ouija boards/ Dungeons and Dragons/Harry Potter, wiccan, psychics, tarot cards, ETC.

Any and all of the above are Satanic or demonic or both. We humans are to have nothing to do with them. They cannot help us . They will only bring harm to us, now, in the future or in eternity.
“31Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.” Leviticus 19:31.
“11Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.” Deuteronomy 18:11-14.
“19And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?” Isaiah 8:19. (We are to seek God, not the dead.)
“ 2Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.” Daniel 2:2. (Chaldeans were known for their magic.)
“10The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.” Daniel2:10.
“6And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: 7Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 9Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. 10And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?” Acts 16:6-10.
“8But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8. (Sorcerers are headed for the Lake of Fire, the second death.)
“14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.  15For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.” Revelation22:15. (The tree life is eternal life, the city here is Paradise.)

God does not approve of anyone attempting to learn of the future except what He has revealed in The Holy Bible. He does not approve of anyone attempting to contact the dead for any reason. He does not approve of playing games or telling stories about sorcery. God does not approve anyone seeking power from any of these sources. They are all Satanic/Demonic. Anyone who does these things or anyone who consults such is in danger of burning in hell forever.
