Do you think that if you are given the gift such as being able to tell the future or get messages from the other side that you should charge for it?

To start with, mediums and clairvoyants are as phony as faith healers.

I think that if you have the ability to perform a service, whatever service that is, you have the right to charge for it.

I do cards and runes- and if you're going to take an hour of my time, I'm probably going to charge you. Otherwise, people tend to take advantage. I don't make promises, though, and I don't call myself a professional. People don't value what they don't pay for.

That said, I've been known to see ghosts and have good intuitions. I would NEVER charge for that. John Edwards makes me ill- he's preying on people's grief. (and he's also a total charlatan.) If someone needs to know something, and it's no bother at all to tell them, it's the right thing to do to just let them know. If you've had a good vision of someone's departed loved one, or have a REALLY bad feeling about the outcome of someone's impending actions (and have a history of being right about these things) then like any other piece of friendly advice, it should be given freely.

I don't see why not. If I was given the gift of being able to paint I would charge for that. Or the gift of of writing I would charge for that. So why not a gift of foretelling, but I don't charge normally, I exchange things for it. Like I've had people clean my bathroom or mow my yard for a reading.
Also sometimes the messages are not a gift that someone would want. eg: I know things about my friends that I wish I didn't know.

We all have gifts. Those who perform charge. Those who are doctors charge, etc etc etc. Some people do decide to not charge. It's up to them. Some people just do it on the side. Others decide to persue it as a path. We live in a world where we need money to eat and all that. Why not charge if they decide to persue it full time? It's peronal preference and beliefs about it.

We are all born with Psychic senses everyone you talk too Yes even YOU, has one or more psychic sense some people choose to enhance them others just ignore them others may just shut them down. They still use them however they don't know they are : )
It does take energy to connect to Spirit for help and information for people and I know if you don't charge you will have people ringing you up all the time, and knocking on your door for help
So in some ways it is good to charge it makes the people stop and think "and are they as willing when they have to pay for it" ?
My friend recently got docked and hour pay because the lady at work wanted a reading and she gave this reading for free, and then lost an hours pay so go figure : )

Senses are
Sight: Eyes "Clairvoyance" Spiritual Body "Eye" (called the Third Eye)
Sound: Ears "Clairaudience" Spiritual Body "Ear"
Touch: Skin "Clairsentience" Spiritual Body "Skin"
Taste: Tongue/Nose "Clairlinguance" Spiritual Body "Tongue"
Smell: Nose "Clairolerance" Spiritual Body "Nose"
*Know: Brain "Claircognizance" Spiritual Body "Mind"

Clairaudience - Intuitive
This is a person who will pick up a thought and hear it. This persons mental or intellectual understanding is very important and they can make good leaders. We all know someone that we would say was a mental person, always having to understand mentally. They carefully think things through. If this person were to become enlightened they would have the ability to become a medium, someone who channels information from entities who have passed over, because their most heightened sensitivity is to hear.

Clairvoyance- Visionary
This is a person who will pick up a thought and see it. This person has the ability to transform a thought into a vision, symbol or in colour by using their mind's eye. If an artist, a decorator, a creative person, someone who mainly uses the right side of their brain were to become enlightened they would have the ability to read auras, our chakras, draw guides and this is how they would channel what they received because the ability to see images is their most heightened sensitivity.

Clairsentience - Prophetic (1)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and just knows it. This person is sensitive to precognition and has hunches, dreams and knowings and this person usually deals with the future or present and how it will affect another. If you were to meet an enlightened Prophetic you would be able to get some information about your 'line of probability', tomorrow is not set in time remember. This could be a person who has a dream about something and that dream turns out to happen in reality. They have the ability of prediction because they 'just know' and can tune into and understand their hunches.

Clairsentience - Feeler (2)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and transform it immediately into a feeling. This persons life can revolve around how it feels to them. Their sense of touch is well-developed and they have the ability to know people by feeling what they feel. After enlightenment, this is someone would have the ability to practice psychometry. The ability to put something belonging to someone in their hand and read the energy. Depending on their other gifts, they could tell the past, present or future from the energy. They have the ability to feel how others feel but only on the emotional level. They will be able to not only empathise but experience their pain, loss, grief etc. For instance, if they were to channel energy from a persons past life they would experience the pain and hurt that that soul experienced in that past lifetime.

Clairgustance - Taste
Clairgustance is being aware of tastes without putting anything physically in the mouth. To perceive the essence of a substance through taste from the spiritual or ethereal realms. The sensation of what one is tasting is often linked to a spirit on the other side.

Claircognizance - Know
The sense of knowing through our brain, even though it is not a physical sense, simply because it has a corresponding metaphysical sense known as claircognizance, or knowing without knowing how you know.

Clairolerance - Smell
The sense of Smelling different fragrances from Spirits to find that earthly connection, strong odours you can't escape and can't explain a reason for eg: Cooking odours, Perfumes, Cigars or Cigarettes, Flowers, Extra. The characteristic essence linked to a spirit on the other side.


"Using some of the senses or all of the senses you can do"
Psychometry - Touch
Psychometry is another form of psychic divination using the sense of touch to get mental impression linked to it. Psychometric impressions may come in the form of emotions, sounds, scents, tastes or images. The visions can appear is single flat images, much like a photo, or as animations. As we exist in an electromagnetic energy reality, metal objects often work best.

Aura Reader - see
Aura readings look at your spiritual energy system as represented in the seven layers of your aura. Along with colours, a reader may see memory pictures, symbolic images, spiritual beings and usually energies belonging to others--like friends and family members. Readings can help you identify and release blocks. Aura readings also help you get in touch with your own energy, so you can know your own truth and make the highest choices for yourself.

Yes I live with one and I was the most skeptical person around.I have seen her work and watch her touch people in a deep personal way that. I've watched her bring a 6'2 275lbs man to his knees crying when he was told a very personal thing from a passed loved one that only he knew. (so he thought). but you can check her out for you self.

NO, I absolutely do not! It comes under the 'personal gain' rule and I believe that is an ultimate no-no!
