Some times there is no reason!

Not everything has to have some "magical" explanation behind it either. Somethings are because they are or because there is a lesson you're about to learn, not because of something whimsical or mystical. Whatever that lesson is depends on you and your situation.

So you had a wonderful experience with someone. Holy fuck so did I like a million times! Lol 🤣....And you know, out of 10 experiences two actually proved OVER TIME to actually be something out of the ordinary! Just 2/10!

Please stop getting your heads wrapped in fantasy. In the real world, you're not grounded and you're not seeing people clearly. When you get all in the clouds, you're missing key and important things about that person you swear to God you have a deep connection with.

You know, like red flags!

It's great you have your heart on your sleeve. I get it and I'm saying these things because I'm 33 and have the life experience to tell you that you're making a big mistake. You NEED to take a step back when you start feeling like there is something "special".

Really look at this person:

Why do you think there is something special? You have things in common? Great, we all have things in common.

They are charming and chivalrous? A lot of men/women act that way just to use you. This is nothing special. Any man or women can be "magical" this way. It won't be long before they do a bait and switch. Usually happens after you move in, go the next step or whatever that they do, so that it's too late to leave because you got knocked up, you'd be homeless, you have abandonment and codependency issues, blah blah blah...

You both have the warm fuzzy feeling that something "special" is happening to both of you? Yeah thats called the Honeymoon phase. It can last days, weeks, months...depends on yours and thier mental heath.

Yeah! Those are some red flags.

You need to take a step back and look at yourself and them honestly. Stay grounded and please, just because you're on a spiritual path doesnt make everything "special" and you certainly don't need it in your life. If you do, that's a mental health issue.

You don't need a reason for every relationship you're in. Sometimes it's just a relationship. All relationships are special and all people have a purpose in our lives, which is to grow! Even bad people in your life. Without them you wouldn't have learned something very valuable like; strength, perseverance, self-worth, assertion, self-care, independence.

Stay grounded and realistic!

Beyonce Pregnancy Reading: A Prediction We Made On This Blog

“Mom are you ever shocked when your predictions come true?” My daughter asked me that yesterday as the news exploded about Beyonce. I thought about that for a moment before i answered. 

“Not really, but I do get a strange feeling in my stomach when they do come to pass.”

Why? Because I see wonderful things a lot. I see births, people getting jobs, engagements, things of that nature. But i also see bad things. I see death. Murder. Horrible things. So it only stands that if good things happen, then the bad ones will come to pass as well. 

I saw destruction and mayhem in France back in November of 2015. I knew that a terrorist attack would occur on Bastille Day. I knew that. I saw that just as plain as day. The entire day seemed to go by as I spent most of it on his balcony of his house. As we went inside, CNN BREAKING NEWS rolled across the screen and my heart sunk as they said there was a possible terrorist attack. My family looked at me with horror as it confirmed everything that I saw. 

I get requests all day long to do readings. People want to know what is going to happen to them. Whether or now if they will find love, or if they will get a job. Sometimes, I get really stupid requests like someone asking me the names of everyone they’ll ever be involved with. I started doing free readings on an Emergency basis and you wouldn’t believe what some people thought that entailed. One girl thought that her boyfriend leaving town with another girl was an emergency. Yep. 

But just as I’m not surprised at my readings when they come true, human behavior doesn’t surprise me either. I predicted that Gwyneth Paltrow’s marriage would break up and when it happened shortly after my reading, I thought about the truly horrible things that could happen in the world and if I would see them before they happened. 

If I saw something terrible, who would I tell? Who could I go to? My own family is skeptical at times but when the things that I see happening to them come to pass, they act as if they are afraid of me at times. I told my OWN mother that her hubby would lose his license to drive after an accident. He would back into a white truck in her driveway. That happened a week later. Afterwards, my mother acted as if she didn’t know how to treat me or talk to me. You become a freak, in essence. Some people don’t want to know and don’t want to come around you for fear that you’re going to tell them something horrible about them. Where do you cross the line?

I was asked a good question the other day. What if you’re around a friend but you don’t want to know. Would you tell that person if something bad was going to happen? If that person doesn’t want to know then I won’t tell them. another question I was asked was that “What if you’re around a psychic, how do you block them from reading your mind? What if you have a secret you don’t want them to know?” That’s easy too. I’m not just a psychic. I’m a person and I don’t sit around and think about YOU all day. I have a life and a family that I think about. I don’t always think about the things that I see around people that surround me. 

It gets to the point where my own friends hang out with me and call me because they want to know something. They will call and clearly try to disguise the fact that they want me to tell them information. It crosses a line. My true friends dont act this way but I have acquaintances that do this to me all the time. They say, “Well what do you see about me?” My answer “nothing. what makes you think that I’m thinking about you?” I am not trying to be mean, but there is a time and place for that. 

I’m not always 100 percent accurate. There are times that I read things wrong. When it came to the election.  I saw Hillary Clinton, not standing at the dais but near it, smiling plastically, wearing all white, and it was raining. I assumed that she would win because that’s what I saw. That’s what happened, but I interpreted what I saw WRONGLY. 

Interesting. 

Some people want me to tell them what i see, but when it’s not what they want to hear, they get upset. How do you get upset at YOUR future. I had nothing to do with that. It’s your actions that steer you towards that future. Every day you make decisions that will shape your tomorrow. As a psychic, it’s my job to see ahead. You are shaping your own destiny with your actions today. If it is not in the cards for you to fall in love for another thirty years, well there is nothing that I can do about that. Perhaps you should look at your own actions and determine what it is that you’re doing. 

The celebrity readings that I do is something new to my practice. I don’t just pluck them out the sky. Sometimes I’ll read about a celebrity and then see things about them and write. I have been pretty much on point with things that I see for a vast majority of them. I’ve not done that many, but the ones that I have, I’ve wished them well in their endeavors but I can’t deny what I see for them, just as I can’t deny what I see for many of you. 

A quick word when it comes to free readings....

Due to how people have treated me and the info that I give them, I don’t do them. I set a special time and date where I will give them. I will answer those who give a name and birthdate and a clear question. Not several questions. But a clear question. I DON’T SPEAK TO SPIRITS FOR FREE. IT’s a lot of work. I can’t offer that because there are people that pay for that service and it’s not fair. I do free readings to help people who may not have money but please sob stories are weighed carefully. Remember, I’m a disabled woman sitting in a wheelchair with thousands of dollars of medications that I take daily. You being in college is not a sob story to me. It’s life. I try to help people when I can but please don’t try to guilt me into doing a reading for you. Trust me, I can beat you with my own sob story that I’m sure you don’t want to hear. 

I wish Beyonce all the success in the world. I see more things for her, but I won’t publicize all that I see for her. I respect her as an artist and won’t reveal the rest of what I see unless she called me up and asked me herself.

"For Entertainment Purposes Only"

Ever read the fine print on psychic sites? I currently don't feel like scoping the entire internet rn to post pics of these things. Maybe later I will find them and edit this entry. Right now, I'm more concerned about reminding people that paid psychics and tarot readers are actually entertainers. Yeah I know.

My first thought when I remembered seeing these notices was that, "No, we aren't party tricks". Which is true, we are real people who like what we do and we take pride in our craft. But when you look at it as a business person, it makes sense.

How so?

It's because we cannot be held responsible for your life. We are tools to help you understand what's going on in your life as an intuitive rather than a "psychic". Basically, we are psudo-therapists. Some have certs, some don't and certs aren't required on most platforms. Whereas in order to be a therapist, you need all the credentials.

Some people can afford a few bucks to talk to a psychic because they don't have insurance or they just need someone to talk to for 5 to 15 minutes then, go on about thier lives. They want someone who is like a therapist but can give them a little bit of extra insight.

Now because of this, --it is why in fine print, we do not offer health advice and we are for entertainment purposes. We cannot be held responsible for your life or how you perceive the information we give you. That means you have to go into a reading with a clear mind, open mind, calmness, and sense of responsibility. Nothing is ever carved in stone. We are not responsible if things go south in your life. You are!

Disclaimers are your best friend.

I have record of my readings and I think everyone should too. Make sure you are clear and set your clients up so that they know first hand what to expect. Unfortunately most people gloss over the details but thats okay. You are covering your ass should there ever be a complaint against you, you have proof you are operating ethically.

Readings I give are usually things that are going to happen should the present energies stay the same. I try to make this clear in my readings as a disclaimer (all chats on Keen are recorded) so that they can't come back to me crying about my predictions being wrong. It will be right there on the transcript that I told them so.

[the-stoned-priestess]

Proof you can make bank as a tarot reader on a platform:

I'm on social security disability so I'm not allowed to make over 1300 a month. The amount "Paid to Advisors" is the actual income. Meaning that's exactly how much I get paid after deductions.

Even as a 4 🌟 reader, I'm not only making rent but I'm able to pay off my credit cards, go out to have fun, save for vacation and all that. Soon I'll be moving into a new (and more expensive) apartment.

If you are interested in working on Keen, do it! You don't pay taxes unless you make over 10k in a year.

[the-stoned-priestess]

Frustrating!

This is a mini rant about clients. If you don't want to read my rant, scroll down!

🤦‍♀️ As a paid tarot reader on a platform, it gets so very frustrating because you can have a great conversation with someone and yet they can give you a 1 star 🌟 rating and fuck up your reputation. I was at a 4.7 and now 4.2 because a couple people either A) didn't like the bad news or B) literally lied!

I like to believe that karma will fix this. In fact, things have gotten better but I still have a poor rating and still have a few false reviews. Unfortunately I can't ask them about it because it's considered harassment. Not like I would bother to try anyway.

Most rational people can tell when 1 🌟 ratings are bullshit.

I get that. But it still doesn't look good. However I'm willing to set aside my ego and just focus on doing work. That's really all I can do. No, I haven't fully looked at my reviews, but have accidentally seen a few while clicking through my portal.

So how do I combat this? 🤔

When I have a good conversation, by the end of the chat I ask that they rate me. So far it's working! But it takes a while for my points to go up. I have a listing at 4.8, 4.4 and 4.2. Of course my love/relationship listings are low because most of the time I get clients who are a little unrealistic about thier love life. Even when I try to give then positive info, they seem to have a onetrack mind.

I tell my clients what to expect from the jump. Some questions will take longer to answer. They usually worry about the timmer going up and want a quick answer. It's not possible. If they ask a yes or no question, they usually want to know why and have followup questions. By telling them that I might need more cards they know there is a possibility this will be a long chat because like on here I give a ton of info. I take my time. If they don't like it, they can close the chat.

I clear my decks in between each chat and take deep breaths. Learning to release frantic energy has helped. Watching a good movie or lecture in between chats also helps because my focus is turned immediately on something else. Listening to light music is helpful to me on a smaller scale.

Mistakes Don't Exist

I feel that when people are presented with a choice, people want to take the path of least resistance and often seek spiritual advice (or any advice) that will help them with that. They don't want to be disappointed, heartbroken, destitute, lonely, etc. We all don't want that, but when you choose the path if least resistance or take the easy way, what you're doing to yourself is as equal as not living to your highest potential.

You're operating out of fear of failure. We need failures, heartbreak, disappointment, and maybe some traumatic experiences. They all shape us. What kills you makes you stronger, compassionate, and even a healer. Many people learn from thier traumas and end up helping others deal with similar things. That's real growth right there! It's beautiful.

What's the point of being on earth if life was easy?!

In the grand scheme of things, there are no mistakes. Things happen to us to give us character, to learn from our experiences, to make us wiser and stronger. However not all the time. You need to be realistic and look at yourself honestly.

For example:

Want to give that abusive guy another chance? Be smart. Obviously you say no. You've already been through enough. Just walk away!

Want to go to medical school? Yes! Go for it. You feel it in your heart it's the path for you. So what if you change your mind or piss your parents off for some weird reason. Just do it.

Want to buy a spiffy brand new car? Is it financially possible? Go for it. If it's not financially possible, look at it this way; it's a sign that at least for now, it's not possible.

Want to tell someone how you feel? Just do it. What's the worst thing that can happen? They reject you? No, being rejected isn't going to kill you. Take responsibility for how you react and put on your big pants.

Then my favorite...

Want to date a guy but not sure? Well if both of you want to date, why not? Do it. If you only want to date someone if it's going to lead to forever after, you don't need a relationship. You need a shrink because that attitude is just not cool. Date someone because you want to and you love them. Don't hold on to expectations or date someone with the condition that they will marry you. That's not love or unconditional love. It's petty and gross. Fix that mindset before you think about dating someone.

In closing, it up to you to make your decisions.

Don't ever make decisions based on what people tell you. Get thier input but when you make that leap, make sure you're realistic, make sure it will benefit you in ways that you will learn something new. You can learn something new from about every big decision you make. It doesn't matter if it didn't "work out" for you. Be active instead of reactive. Learn how to look at what didn't work out as a test on your character instead of throwing yourself a gigantic pitty party.

Having a fit because you feel the universe duped you isn't growth, it's regressing back to when your mommy said you couldn't have that bike or doll. The universe sees this and the law of attraction states; Like attracts like. So if you behave like that, the universe will give you more reasons to bitch and moan. When you flip your attitude around and do it because you want to, not because you're expecting something in return, you see positive changes.

Learn what LOA really is.

It takes practice to get it down and yes you can lose that skill if you aren't consistent. When you are consistent, you'll notice how things come to you effortlessly. It's happened with me so many many times so I know what I'm talking about. When you have a good relationship with the universe, it responds back in ways you never thought possible.

First Experience As A Keen Advisor

Crazy!

Well I was not expecting to get chat requests so soon. So when it happened I flew out of bed to dig through my decks and did my first reading on the floor. In spite of not being prepared, I did very well. My first reading gave me ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!

Over the course of the day/night I would take a break to re-center myself. I was very nervous and excited but I pressed on through the best I could. These are LIVE chats and not email readings. This meant I have to think on my feet, have my book ready and I was forced to use my memory to interpret the tarot. Oracle cards are easy to do without a book.

Since I'm a by the book person...

... it was nerve-wracking because I had to try different decks and books before I felt comfortable. I'm learning to not worry about how good or accurate I am on these readings which is hard. It's more important to focus on the intention to just do my job.

So I found the best book and deck to use in my readings and towards the end before reaching my 100$ goal, I was comfortable navigating the chat and book at the same time. Multitasking is a must for me if I'm going to do this and I'm happy doing it all from my bed.

Sure I get the same old questions and stuff but I'm getting paid to answer them. I feel valued! Anyway I found it easy to get started once I was all set up. It should be relatively easy to make 1k a month which is my goal. If I make too much, I could lose my disability assistance. Since I make my own hours it's simple to just stop working if I make 1k.

Honestly I feel totally blessed and excited about this new venture. I will buckle down more towards my vacation date so that I can have some extra spending money. The possibilities are endless and I'm so fucking happy.

What's Really Sad About Clients On Keen

After working for Keen about 2 weeks, the thing that really saddens me, is the lack of responsibility or accountability or self respect people have when seeking advice.

They want what they want....NOW.

You tell them that they should do inner work and they gloss over it.

When they know they are the problem they play the victim.

They feel entitled to have a perfect relationship even though there no such thing.

They needlessly suffer and choose drama over healing.

When they hear what they don't want to, it's our fault.

They fail to realize that we are human too.

Yes, I need to not take these toxic things personally. But I can't help but feel so sorry for people like that. Hell, I USED TO BE LIKE THAT. Besides the fact I am a natural intuitive, I learned Tarot because I didn't want to spend money on places like Keen. Learning tarot didn't solve all my problems but it still saved me money.

I have no problem with suggesting to a few clients that they try to learn tarot on thier own. Only the more well adjusted ones. No amount of tarot learning is going to help someone who is toxic... sorry/not sorry. Some have actually listened to my advice. They are such a breath of fresh air to talk to and I let them know.
