“You just need to be more positive!” This is a statement that has increasingly irked me. You can even imagine the tone of voice used, without needing to hear the words.

A professional psychic reading (as opposed to fortune telling), conducted by an experienced consultant with a proven track record, will always include a degree of counselling.

Have you ever received psychic predictions? And have any of those predictions unfolded, as described? And not just ordinary, everyday things that were probably going to happen anyway, but more unusual or unexpected occurrences? I was, very recently, asked an interesting question by one of my clients.
