I don't believe I'n mediums or psyics . But after tday my mind changed I picked up a customer from Liverpool airport and journey was 30 mins . I'n that time he told me something about my past which was only known by 2 people and he said I was very lucky as if I had carried on doing this job 4 this guy would have been in serious trouble .this guy ended up going away for a long time and lucky I never got asked any questions . This medium then said you sometimes do a activity which finishes at stupid times and you can't sleep after it and involves cards .I can see you enjoy it and will do ok . The last thing he sensed was stars or diamonds . Might be reading 2 much I'n 2 it but freaked me out . Any 1 believe I'n them or had experiences similar

My late mum, who was into that sort of thing became friendly with a famous local medium called Jenny Bright.

I'm pretty sure that JB was occasionally called in by the local police to help them solve murder cases.

I'm pretty much ambivalent about it myself but I do own a dockering ball that must have belonged to her at one time.

He will no doubt have said other things to you as well which you will have reacted differently to and hence he quickly moved on. These people are good at what they do but they don't have any special powers. He reads people in a similar way to how you read players at the table.

They are callous, thieving, wretched shysters and purveyors of the finest weapons grade bullshit known to man; preying on the vulnerable, weak and stupid. Whilst their pathetic ramblings aren't real, the consequences of their trade often are and can cause great hurt and suffering.

If you're struggling with the death of a loved one, go and see a grief specialist, not a medium.

Easy tiger, that's a very opinionated post there. Lets not generalize too much.

generally speaking, all people who profess to be in contact with the dead for monetary gain are covered by my description above.

I have very strong opinions about these people. I can't stand them and the quicker they are outlawed the better.

You're right though, I should reign it in a little. Some of their bullshit is hardly weapons grade, you don't need gatters to see through it, you just need to be a) not a moron and b) not have your opinion tainted by grief or loss.

My particular favourite is the genius who, whilst bombing on stage, claimed that she 'hears so many voices it's hard to know which ones to listen to'. Wait a minute....you're justification for the fact that you're shit at your fake job is that actually you're too good at it? Give me a fucking break.

Have been reading Laxie's blog here http://www.spiritualdawn.com/The%20New%20Fraudulent%20Mediums%20Act.htm

They are referring to the recent clampdown on fake psychics and mediums, which are giving real mediums and psychics a bad name. You'll be ok as long as you stick with one of the genuine ones.

There is no such thing as mediums who can see into the future or talk to the dead.

Anyone who claims they can either a) know they can't (so they're a crook/fraud) or b) thinks they can (so they're mentally ill)

Would be interested to know how the conversation started that lead to these revelations. Did he speak to you first? Or are you generally chatty with customers?
I am open minded about such things, but I know that there are some very clever people out there, who can pick up a whole load of info by being observant for a start, and by being easy to talk to, allowing you to open up and tell them all
sorts of things without you realising they are prompting you into it.

What he would gain in this situation I dont know, which is why I would like to hear more about it.

jesus christ.

we're now differentiating between 'real' and 'fraudulent' mediums?



Perhaps the fraudulent ones
a) know they can't (so they're a crook/fraud)

and the real ones

think they can (so they're mentally ill)

using AndrewT's definition.
