Psychic Readings in a Technologically-driven World

To Believe or Not To Believe?

These are just some of the questions that come to mind whenever we are confronted with the terms fortune telling, tarot reading, astrology or horoscopes. Some of us may have already made up our mind regarding their credibility or suspiciousness. But for the majority of us, we still don’t know where we stand in all of this. Do we believe or not?

Since the earliest of times, divination or fortune telling has been practiced by people with regards to the weather, the outcome of war, the fate of kings and their families, and many others. In the Mid 60’s., the popularity of fortune telling and psychic readings was largely felt as people around the globe tried various methods in bringing guidance and clarity in their lives.

Common methods include tarot reading, dream interpretation, astromancy (positions of planets, Sun, and Moon), cartomancy (fortune telling with cards), crystallomancy (reading of a crystal sphere), cheiromancy (palmistry, reading of the palm).

Why do people turn to fortune tellers and psychic readers?

For the simple reason of control. The future is uncertain and unmanageable. People therefore want to know their future because they believe knowledge about it will give them the power and means to control and manage their future.

In a way, through predestination, we are anticipating a better life than we currently have.

Psychics or Skeptics?

While others believe in the powers of fortune telling and its benefits of letting people lead a more fulfilling life, some would scoff at the idea and say, what’s the point of knowing everything? Life is deliberately full of mysteries,i so that we may take time to cherish the little surprises that awaits us.

But for these people who really believe that anything is possible, money isn’t an issue anymore; since all they have to do is sit back and let the expertise of tarot cards on the table do the speaking. Or perhaps have a psychic reading online and have a credible psychic dispense accurate and insightful readings and advices. Indeed, technology is the unfailing medium in spreading awareness about psychics.

Perhaps, it's all just a matter of how people take things in life, whether it's good clean fun or a serious matter which needs your full attention. If the narratives and predictions that lay within each fortune telling or tarot card reading bring significant realization to a person, then who are we to question them? After all, not too many people can claim their lives have changed, or that they have experienced enlightenment, or that they now have control and freedom. Success stories like these reinforce belief in the time-tested art and science of fortune-telling. So instead of being hard-hearted skeptics, let's open our minds and hearts to the possibilities of the future.

In a fast-changing world such as ours, it's time that we did ourselves a favor and took charge of our lives.

The Multi-Faceted World of Tarot Cards

Tarot cards have an inseparable reputation of being used in fortune-telling. But did you know that the original use of tarot cards was for games and recreation?

Tarot cards have had a crucial and inseparable influence in mysticism and the occult. They first arrived sometime in fifteenth century Italy, but it was not until late 17th or 18th century that tarot cards began to be used in divination. The tarot cards that we know today have gone through a long and evolution, from the pictures, symbolisms, procedures, purposes, and meanings. It is interesting to note that tarot cards were originally used in a game, with 21 trump cards, four queens, and a fool added to a normal deck, which totals to 78 cards in all. But it is unclear exactly how tarot branched out from a simple mind-diverting game into the fragile business of looking back into past lives, foretelling the future, and answering questions.

Tarot cards however shouldn't be equated solely with fortune-telling as they have many other valuable uses.

Self-interrogation
Through tarot cards, we become honest with ourselves as we try to pose questions. In a typical tarot reading, we ask questions that help you understand the past or a current situation. Tarot cards offer an alternative language system through which we can access our Unconscious. Therefore, we do not just randomly pick tarot cards, or blindly entrust our lives to them. Every moment of our lives, we lay ourselves bare with the choices we make, even for something as papery as tarot cards.

Philosophy and spirituality
Tarot cards can be used to support or develop a philosophy of life and spirituality. Tarot cards are not just a group of loosely unconnected cards. It represents the journey of the Fool (or each one of us) through life and all the things that are learned along with way, all the challenges faced and ways in overcoming them. Learning the subtle art o tarot cards helps you understand the way of life and combat your demons.

Tarot as Counselor
Tarot cards can be used for counseling. What we see in a card that is rich in archetypal and meaningful content reflects in large part how we are responding to a situation that is on our minds. The highly-respected psychologist Carl Jung has always considered tarot as an alternative psychotherapy. For him, the rich imagery inherent in every tarot card represents archetypes of human personality and situations. Tarot cards help draw out these ideas and understand how they reflect inner thoughts and feelings. Tarot cards are especially useful in helping children tell difficult stories in a language they may have not yet acquired.

Positivity
Tarot can be used for meditation. You meditate on a card that represents a quality you want to acquire and imbibe for your life. Perhaps, it could be Strength, Justice, or the Star (which represents acceptance and trust in the universe). Place it where you can see it and meditate on the image all day. It will help you boost positive thoughts within yourself, and thus help you behave in a way you want.

Tarot as Inspiration
The rich symbolism and characters in tarot cards can be used to develop inspiration and plotlines in stories, poems, songs, artwork.

Tarot for Games
Originally known as tarocchi or tarock, tarot cards was born in Europe and started its days there as a recreational game. Tarock is a trick-taking game with a permanent trump suit. Aside from being a parlour game, tarot cards were also used in inspiring poems or amusing refrains about popular or public figures.

Introduction to Numerology

Numerology is the study of numbers, and the occult manner in which they reflect and correspond to everything else in the whole cosmic plan. This is because numbers are the reliable language system through which the universe is made understandable, and thus the root numbers from 1 to 9 has a significant effect on everything around us, including we ourselves.

In numerology, each letter in the alphabet has a numeric value that provides a related cosmic vibration. The important sums in numerology to watch out for are the numbers in your birth date and the sum of the letters in the name; when these two are interrelated, they tell a wealth of information about the person. These numbers show a great deal about character, purpose in life, motivations, strengths, fears, talents, and many others. Experts in numerology use the numbers to determine the best time for major moves and activities in life. Numerology is used to decide when to invest, when to marry, when to travel, when to change jobs, or relocate. At best though, numerology offers a guide and a beacon to get us on the way; it doesn't dictate what will happen because at the end of the day, it is free will and bravery that matters.

Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician and meta physician of the 6th century B.C., is said to be the originator of much of what we call numerology today. The actual origins of numerology pre-date Pythagoras, the most popular being the very old Hebrew Kabbala. In the 20th century, the old science seems to magically reappear in the form of a series of books published from 1911-1917 by L. Dow Balliett and it was helped along in the 30s by Florence Campbell, and within the next few decades a wealth of literature was available to the public. Indeed, if you look at the past 9 decades, it would seem that the science has moved very rapidly. But perhaps all of this was known at a much earlier time, and it was just hiding from us for a while.

All the nine numbers in numerology have their own essence. Simply from a person's birth date stems all other important happenings of the past, present or the future that can be calculated through numbers. Nothing is beyond numbers and the stars, and in the believing heart.

Numerology and Life Paths; What's your 'Path'?

Maybe you’re a bit confused about where your life is really going. This is where numbers come in. According to Pythagoras, the realm of numbers and mathematical concepts offers a more reliable, and determinable reality. Numbers are the universal language. Thus, numerology was born to unlock the secret relationship of things and events with numbers.
In numerology, your Life Path is your main number; it shows what opportunities will come your way, and where your main talents and abilities lie. It is calculated using Fadic addition wherein you add together your meaningful numbers and reduce the result to a single digit.

We do this recursively. As an example, let’s calculate Tom Cruise's Life Path. Cruise was born on July 3, 1962. So, first we add together the month, day, and year of his birth: 7 + 3 + 1 + 9 + 6 + 2 = 28; then we add together the individual digits of 28 to get 2+8=10. And finally, to narrow it down, we add 1 + 0, to get just 1. Cruise's Life Path number is 1 then.

In numerology, numbers have to be reduced until they reach their most basic root, for us to garner meaning from them.

There are 9 major Life’s Path where everyone can fit into. Each of these number corresponds to a personality, belief, and views in life.

(1) the Path of the Leader
Assertive and self-sufficient, highly motivated and focused, strives to be always the best. Can be critical of one's self, as well as of others.

(2) the Path of the Cooperator
Honest and humble. Inspire people around them

(3) the Path of the Entertainer
Entertains and makes other people happy through their sharp wit and vivid imagination.

(4) the Path of the Builder
Meticulous planners, thrifty, practical, and love to see the results of their own efforts. Fears new and untested ideas.

(5) the Path of the Seller
Versatile, adaptable, multi-talented.

(6) the Path of the Teacher
Loves beauty, harmony, and personal peace. They are trustworthy, loyal. Hates injustice, and loves fair play.

(7) the Path of the Loner
Has great powers of intuition and strong powers of reason. A perfectionist who doesn’t like taking advice from others.

(8) the Path of the Warrior
Struggles for power. They are tough, strong, ruthless in pursuit of their goals.

(9) the Path of the Humanitarian

Charismatic and creative, yet hot tempered when their causes are tampered with and threatened.


Regardless of the Life Path you were born with, all are equally valid, with lessons that should be embraced and learned with the best of our ability. All of us have talents and abilities that we should use well to give our lives the best meaning of all.
