Understanding Psychic Readings – The Future

There are often times many misunderstanding of how psychic predictions work. It is very rare that a psychic prediction is static or unchangeable. Psychics do not own the future, and are not omniscient.

Instead of stating that a psychic “sees the future,” I think it is much more important to understand that the future is not pre-determined. There is no fate that controls what is to come.  Rather the vibrational reality of the individual and the collective is what determines the future. When a psychic “sees” the future, they are seeing a future based on a present, or a potential vibrational reality.

The future of an individual, and of humanity, is constantly being created through the creative nature that exists inside of each individual.

The future depends on what you do today ~ Mahatma Gandhi

Every human being has Spirit-essence in him or her. The most profound reality of Spirit is related to the creative nature.  Within the past hundred years there has been a shift in consciousness, or rather a realignment in consciousness with regards the power of manifestation. The concepts of manifestation exist either as a predominate or secondary trend throughout religious history. The most common reference to the power of manifestation is the concept of faith.

So how does this relate to psychic readings? A psychic normally reads the underlining energy of an individual’s situation. There are different styles of psychic readings, but almost all psychics use the starting point of the underlining energy, and the momentum that is coming from this energy.

The three primary styles of readings are the inspirational, compassionate, and straight-forward methods of reading:

Inspirational psychic readings will look at potentials and ideal outcomes to a situation and will likely provide methods to achieve the highest goal.

Compassionate psychic readings will often look at the underlining energy or emotions in a situation and look at the momentum being created. They will often use an empathic method to help the individual achieve their highest goals.

Straight-forward psychic readings will likely use the underlining energy as a baseline and predict based off of the current momentum, without looking at potential outcomes normally associated with change.

The best way to predict the future is to invent it ~ Alan Kay

One important reality to understand related to psychic readings is that psychics do not create the future. Psychic readings are intended to confirm momentum, and to gain more insight into a current situation, or the future. Getting a psychic reading is not a way to escape personal responsibility from your life, so it is important to pay attention to both directives and predictions within a reading.

A mentor once gave me the following analogy about psychic readings that really hit home for me:

“A farmer planted several fig trees turning his farm into an orchard. He had been taking loving care of his seedlings, and wanted to know the yield for his investment. He wanted to find a crop that would allow him to harvest each year, without having to put a lot of energy in planting and processing the soil. The psychic looked at the trees and told him that there was enormous potential for him, especially after three years. She said that he was in an ideal location for the orchard, and the trees would provide him an increase for many years to come. But she also provided him with a directive: to make sure that he continued with his work with loving attention.

Three years later the farmer came back to the psychic and angrily said that she had lied to him. His trees were producing very little fruit. He said that he trusted her predictions, and she turned out to be just wrong. She then asked him what kind of attention had he given those trees? He admitted that he had stopped paying as much attention to the trees over those three years. Why should he? The trees were going to bring him abundance after three years. He paid some attention to the orchard, but not what he knew was the recommended amount of attention for this type of tree.”

It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one link of the chain of destiny can be handled at a time ~ Winston Churchill

In this analogy the psychic was not wrong, the farmer paid little attention to the directive of his reading and therefore changed the momentum of his situation. She confirmed that he was on the right path, and the trees would likely have provided the farmer with abundance, provided he would have continued with his current course. It is each individual’s choice to take responsibility for his or her own actions.

So the question is: why didn’t the psychic see the other future that would end in failure? There are two answers to that. The first one is that Spirit did provide her with insight related to this issue in the directive provided in the reading. The potential was to have a wonderful harvest at the end of a three year cycle. The second answer is that she was reading his current momentum, the momentum changed so the outcome changed.

There are certainly upsides and downsides related to a fluid future. The positive is that the power to create a future is in the hands of the individual. Human beings are not controlled by fate. The downside is that the responsibility to create a positive future means that when an individual chooses to focus on negativity there is no escaping the effects of that negativity.

It takes effort to change perspective, and often times individuals find it difficult to route their energy to attain a desired outcome.
