Last night (12/12/08) I went to a psychic fair at a local spiritualist church. Well the experience was definately different. We arrived at 7.30 and after a bit of trepidation we left the car and went in - to say the area was rough is an understatement. So in we go to be greeted by a smoking guy in a Santa hat (we later learnt he was the head of the church
) I booked in for a tarot reading and an aura photograph which cost £20 for the two.
The Tarot reading.
Oh dear me, what a load of rubbish. I would say about 90% of what she said was complete and utter trash. Below are a few examples:
Her: Congratulations this card means a baby on the way!
Me: U’mm I can’t actually have children
Her: Oh well maybe its adoption or a friend or family member
Me: Nope!
Her: You have connections with either Kent or Cornwall (I wonder if she was picking up on my accent?)
Me: No, not at all
Her: Are you sure
Me: The only people I know down there are in Brighton
Her: That’s it then Brighton’s near Kent
Her: You never got over your past love and scare off new lovers by being too full on
Me: I’ve never been in love and have been single for the past few years and am most defiantly not a slut!
Her: Your very involved in music
Me: No, can’t even play a recorder
Her: But I see you playing the drums
Me: Nope not going to happen
There were plenty more such as a family member will die and I will inherit lots of money but then spend it all!
The Aura Photo.
This is something I’ve wanted to try for a while but after the Tarot disaster I was a little dubious. To start I sat facing a laptop with a built in camera and then placed my left hand on a reader thing! Immediately my aura appeared on the screen around an image of my head. It was orangey in colour and changed to different shades. Here’s where it gets a little spooky: The gentleman doing the picture looked at me and said :
Him: You’re here with someone.
Me: My mum’s sat over there.
Him: No dear that’s not what I meant.
Me: Oh, you mean a spirit?
Him: Yes, its quite unusual and very nice to see.
He then showed me on the screen a white outline behind me on my left, this was my spirit guide, also on my right was a black smudge, my guardian angel.
Next we looked at my chakras, again a little weird as he picked up on a medical problem I have which there is no way he could have known. He also said my third eye was very open and asked if I ‘saw things’. Apparently my yin and yang is perfectly balanced and I am emotionally tired and in need of a break!
All in all it was a fun evening, more for entertainment than spiritual growth and I definately don’t think I will be going there again.
