I Am Proud To Call Myself Psychic

I have been naturally psychic all my life, and have been working as a professional psychic for over 20 years. After all these years I am still curious about people’s responses when they ask me what I do for a living.

People’s responses to me being a psychic can sometimes be so predictable that you don’t even need to be psychic to know what they are going to say. No, I am going to tell you what your name, star sign or favorite color is, just because you thought it funny to ask. My typical response to these kinds of questions is inevitably, “Why, did you forget what it was?”

Now, I could tell them I am a Licensed Reverend or a Certified Life Coach. I could also tell them that I am a Certified Massage Therapist for over 8 years. I could even say that I am a Certified Reiki Master, or better yet, that I was a casino dealer for twelve years, before I ‘jumped off the cliff’ into the rest of my life. But my favorite thing to say is simply that, “I am a psychic.”

People have different ideas about what this really means. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines the term ‘psychic’ as being of, or relating to, the psyche. It is also described as lying outside the sphere of physical science or knowledge. The word is further also defined as someone who is sensitive to non-physical or supernatural forces and influences; or as a person who is marked by extraordinary or mysterious sensitivity, perception, or understanding.

As all psychics are well aware, we can be looked upon askance in the best of times, and with horror during the worst of times. It’s rarely an easy gig! But, oh, so rewarding.

Like the sky opens after a rainy day we must open to ourselves…. Learn to love yourself for who you are and open so the world can see you shine ~ James Poland

When people ask me what it means to be psychic, I explain that I see and feel the aura of you. I am someone who will take your deepest fears, the ones that lurk in the darkest corners of your mind, and cast light upon them, rendering them useless and crawling away from your psyche, leaving your mind free and clear from worry. That, I say, is what a psychic is – someone who deals with the psyche.

Your psyche colors everything in your world. A psychic helps you color at your best potential. Just the same way a teacher teaches, or a pilot ‘pilots’. A trainer trains, a driver drives. Yet none of these professions are looked upon in quite the same way as a psychic…the one who deals with the psyche. And I for one say “no more” to that.

 Don’t ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive ~ Harold Whitman

I hold my head high when people ask me what I do. It is by being psychic that everything I am came to be. I wanted to be closer to God, so I became a Reverend. I wanted to see what lay beneath God’s skin, so I became a massage therapist. And I wanted to be able to touch the soul of people, so I became a Reiki Master.

In the end it all came back to being psychic, to hearing the ‘voices in my head’, to having a loving touch in all the ways that I could. And because I am a psychic, my clarity increases as I help you with yours. The more I do for others, the more I become. And then I become the ‘I am’, because I will be.
