It only goes to show.  I dated a woman a few years ago.  It lasted all of three months, but during this time she did two things for me.  The first was she introduced me to her hairdresser and the second she introduced me to a car dealer who sold me the current vehicle I drive.  The woman I dated described both of these people as her friends.  Her hairdresser was someone she had known for 20 years, or more.  When the hairdresser moved her business a few years ago, this woman drove the extra 10 miles just to continue seeing her to get her hair done.  The car dealer was someone she would purchase a new car from every five years.  She also said this was an act of loyalty.  In both cases, these were people she trusted and had known for over 20 years.

Last year, I happened to speak with both of these people, the hairdresser and the car dealer, at different times.  Both assumed I was still friends with this woman.  However, when I pointed out to them that I had not seen this woman in over 5 years they opened up to me that and informed me that they thought she was a very odd person and were glad that they do not see nor have dealings with her anymore.  Her hairdresser described her as a very negative individual that she had to endure.

I find it hard to believe that someone who held two people in such high esteem for so long would actually have been so wrong.  It made me start to rethink my friendships.  Perhaps people I believe are my friends are really not.  How do we really know?

This mother's day was unusual.  We spent the entire day with my mother.  That is a first.  We took her over to my oldest brother's place and we made breakfast for her.  Everyone helped out, except myself -- for some reason I wasn't allowed to help this year.  Instead, my niece and her boyfriend helped make breakfast, while my brother Barbequed steaks.  It was a very good breakfast.  I entertained my mother while all the preparations were going on.  Breakfast was over at 1pm.  Then we just talked and watch a movie on TV.  After that, we took my mother out to dinner at a restaurant.  Being 83 years old, she was ready to go home at 8pm  -- I drove her home.  It was very pleasant.  A bit of a surprise day, actually. 

However, there was one odd thing of note came up during the day.  This was my cousin.  My cousin and I do not get along.  He is extremely competitive and materialistic.  The exact opposite of myself.  In the last 40 years, I have only seen him once and that was back in 1992, I think.  Since then, I have just heard about him, and all his success in life.  I keep hearing this from his mother, my aunt, or more to the point, my mother's sister.  To my aunt, her son can do no wrong.  He is a genius, a millionaire in the making, a great father and parent.  I have had to endure this every time my aunt would come over for a visit.  To say she spoilt her son is probably underestimating her child rearing abilities.  She did far more than spoil the child, but I do not blame her.  Her love for her son has been noted for the last 40 or so years.  This is where the story goes a bit off the norm, or perhaps derails a bit.  On Mother's Day, my mother received a phone call from her sister.  Her sister was very upset.  It appears that her loving child, the apple of her eye, the child that can do no wrong, phoned his mother on Mother's Day, early in the morning, and gave her a piece of his mind.  He pointed out that she was the worst mother he could have had.  He did not spare her.  Because I did not speak with my aunt, I cannot add more, but whatever was added to the conversation, it was not good.  No one knows why her son did what he did, and on Mother's Day of all days.

We spoke about this among ourselves and remembered that my aunt now lives near her daughter and that the two of them have been traveling around together, seeing sights, museums and also going on short cruises.  I think my cousin is jealous that his mother is doting over her daughter and not him.  I asked if the my two cousins get along together, but apparently they do not.  That may have added to the problem.  Still, it seems a bit odd.  My aunt was the only person in my family that we, as kids thought of as being "sane".  My parents were odd, if not insane, but not my aunt.  My aunt was always positive in her views, always jumping in to defend us and point out all our positive traits rather than harp on the negative, like my parents always did.  My aunt was a lot like her mother, my grandmother, the psychic.  My aunt was very spiritual and has a very strong spiritual perspective on life.  She and I understand each other.  We have had the same spiritual experiences.  I find it very hard to believe that my cousin did what he did, but then, I am not privy to the goings on in their family.  Obviously, he has taken somethings, like his upbringing, as something of a failure.  I know my aunt was divorced two or three times, so perhaps he has something to gripe about, but it was a bad decision to ambush your mother on Mother's Day.  I do not think that was called for.  It struck a deep wound in my aunt.  The one child she revered more than any other has struck her.  I will have to give my aunt a phone call this week or next.  She just published a book last week and has put a copy for me in the mail.  This may be a perfect time to talk with her.

I had a psychic reading in February 2013,  In that reading, the psychic pointed out four events in my life that will unfold in 2013.  The first was really telling me what was going on in my life as of now, which was now from back in February.  Her observations were 100% accurate.  She knew exactly what was going on and even point to the antagonist in my life.  She never asked me what was going on in my life, she just told me.

Next she pointed out that I was hoping something was going to happen this year because certain people had made promises.  She said this won't be happening this year, although it could still happen next year.  I heard a few weeks ago that this was true.  Events have slowed down on what I have come to call, "Plan A".  No one's fault, but due to the present slow economy and because the project started out as a million dollar project but now is close to a billion dollar project, people have been scrambling about looking for more financing.  I won't be seeing money from this, but oddly enough, I do benefit in an odd way.  Just not financially.  It will happen, but not quickly and not this year.  So I can put "Plan A" on the back burner.  This is what the psychic stated would happen.  Perhaps next year, she said.

The psychic then stated that I would receive what I have been waiting for from a different quarter.  She stated where this will come from and it matched my "Plan B".  In fact, it was exactly as I had hoped, if not better than what I expected.  Plan B did occur, exactly as she stared it would and from the exact people she stated it would come from, without ever asking me information.  I just wasn't expecting it so soon.

Her last prediction matches what other psychics have stated to me over the last 5 years.  Strange as it seems, this information never changes.  The only part that is left up in the the air is "when?".  I have been told it will be in the Fall, probably September.  All psychics have stated this over and over again, but each Fall has gone by without the event taking place.  And yet, the predictions from the various psychics I have seen persists.  The last psychic I saw stated it will start in the Fall of 2013, but 2014 will really be my year.  That matches what the other psychics have stated as well.  It is suppose to start with a small project in the Fall and then it will be followed up by more and more projects and then my career is suppose to change and go off in a totally new direction.  

The last psychic made four statements, of which three have come true already.  Extremely accurate predictions.  Only one prediction is remaining.  Will this too prove to be correct?  I was told I just need to have faith, but after hearing this for the last 5 years, it is stretching faith just a bit.  However, its not like I have better things to do in the meanwhile.  I was just told to hang in there for the next seven to eight months.  It is coming.  Fingers crossed.

There is a store in my area that occasionally has a psychic on hand to conduct readings.  I went there last year and had a short reading.  I was actually looking for a psychic who could give my niece a reading.  This psychic was an odd person, but her reading was, once again, the same reading I have received for the last four years.  Soon after, however, the store closed down, it was boarded up, but I discovered last January that they were back again and with a psychic on hand.  I booked myself a reading and then went in to see how my fate has changed.  There was a new psychic on hand, a different woman this time around.  However, yet again, the end result reading was very much the same reading I have received for the last five years now, which is, I will have a chance meeting with someone in the fall, who will have a business proposal or idea.  This idea will involve all my accumulated expertise and experiences, but will be in a different field.  Despite this psychic never having known me, she described my business very accurately.  She also described my present situation with amazing accuracy, something no one could have just guessed.  She also pointed out that one avenue of respite from my current situation will not come about, but a "Plan B", will come about this year and save my ass.  From this, my business will move ahead in leaps and bounds.  Plan B strangely enough is just that, it was my Plan B.  Its my second chance this year to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and again, no one knows this except myself, yet the psychic knew.  She pointed out that my Plan B will happen.  She also stated why it will happen, which is something no one, other than myself would have known about.  Its my secret, and mine alone, and yet, the psychic correctly pointed it out.  Her reasons why it will come about were 100% accurate -- only I know the reason.  I have discussed this with no one in my life thus far.  Its just a matter of waiting.  I suspect that next month will hold some interesting events, but this is just a gut feeling.

I will have to wait and see.  My future, once again, seems to be good, although in the psychic's words, 2014 will be my year, although 2013 will be a good start.  She stated that 2014 will be the start of a whole new life, which include world traveling, and financial security.  This is something many psychics have also stated -- they all seem to agree how it will come about, but the time frame is up in the air.  I am to be approached with a business proposal or an idea that will carry me far once acted upon.  We will see.  The only problem is I am always being offered business ideas, from many sources.  However, I was told, once this happens, it will be obvious.  One thing the psychics all agree upon, the venture will be offered to me.  It does not come from me, nor is it my idea.  I merely meet someone, or someone else approaches after seeing my work, with an idea.  I will have no control over this aspect, other than to say yes.   

Time will tell.

I just heard on Tuesday (March 5th)  that the contracts for the start of "Plan B" were signed.  I wasn't expecting this to happen for a few month yet.  Now I have to wait about 6 weeks to hear if my part in this deal will go ahead.  The price settled upon by investors was a lot higher than expected.  I heard everyone was surprised by the deal and the amount in the agreement, which considering the state of the economy, is very surprising.  No one expected this deal to be settled so quickly. I should hear about my part in this by the end on March, 2013.  It seems the chips are starting to fall into place.

--

Just received a phone call.  The deal is going through nicely and I was asked, "How much money do I need for my project?".  A dicey question to answer... do I give them the real figures and scare them away, or do I low ball it.  I played middle of the road, but stated it could be more.  I will hear in about three weeks if this project will fly or not.

Today, Plan B became a reality.  It means I can move ahead with my plans for the rest of the year.  Plan A is indeed stalled by unforeseen events, but may still occur, but that doesn't matter to me because today, Plan B happened.  Oddly enough, this was exactly as the psychic predicted.  That means two predictions came true:  Plan A will not occur this year, but Plan B will happen.  She also predicted, like many other psychics over the last three or so years, that a business deal will occur in the Fall.  This psychic predicted the Fall of 2013 as being the start of a great change for the better in my business.  These were the three predictions she made and two of these have come true.  We will see how the third prediction shapes up.  Plan B is what I call, and the psychic called, a "Game Changer", and will set into motion many other events in my life, all of which will be very good.  I can see this occurring.  I now have many options in my life that I did not have a few days ago.  Now I can get caught with work and sleep.

After turning 24 years old I stopped getting sick on a regular basis.  In the past, like clockwork, every January, February or March of each year I would get the flu or a viral illness of some sort that would put me into bed for 5 to 8 days with a high fever.  These illnesses remind me of the movie, "Trainspotting".  I would be in a haze of delusions, covered in sweat, having weird dreams, odd thoughts, and would find myself in different worlds.  In some ways I started to look forward to these bouts of illness because they were like being on vacation from reality.  Then, after I turned 24, getting sick suddenly became a rare event, and 30 years later, I average one illness every 3 to 8 years.  No more colds, runny noses, fevers, etc during these long stretches.  Physical injures seemed to have taken over from bacterial and viral infections.

This year, 2013, I found myself sick again.  The last time I was sick was February, 2010, and before that, I was sick in February 2002.  The illnesses are usually the same: headache with a constant fever, loss of hearing, sweating, and not much else, but at least they came with the usual fun, weird dreams.  My doctor figured I suffered from inner ear infections, but they never involve the pain I would have associated with an inner ear infection.  The latest fever I had went on for 8 straight days and then, this morning, its mostly gone, although since I didn't really eat anything for 8 days, I am left feeling dehydrated, hungry and fatigued, but at least I am still functioning.

While I was sick I managed to solve a problem I had with a new product I have been developing over last three years.  I couldn't produce the product until all the problems associated with its manufacturing had been solved and there were a few problems to figure out.  Since I had the time, being sick in my bed with a fever, starring at the ceiling, I was in a fairly good position to put about 8 hours a day into solving these annoying problems.  I came up with a few novel solutions that will surely annoy my competitors and quite possibly make this product one of my better selling products.  I keep getting emails from customers all over the world asking for this product, but there were those nasty production difficulties to iron out first.  I just needed the time and the focus, both of which I had over the last 8 days, to work it all out.  Who says being sick and stuck in bed has to be a bad thing?  This is one reason why I enjoy being sick, although there are three down sides:  1) I never know when I will be sick, 2) I have to contend with delirium (trying to stay focused on reality when your fever is pulling you into a fantasy state of mind is distracting), and  3) Having customers constantly ask "Where is my order?" can be distressing by itself.  Being sick will often put a wrench into a person's time table.

I am still not feeling 100% better yet, but once I am eating regularly again, and able to drink fluids again at ease, I should be OK, but I shall miss the weird dreams.  I will have to wait until I am sick again, back on vacation.  One weird dream I found to be quite amusing occurred a day ago.  In the dream I was being interviewed by a young woman in a white lab coat who was asking me various questions.  As she left the interview room she stated to me, "When I get back, we will be talking about ants who were never ants" (unless she meant Aunts?).  Fever induced dreams can be very amusing.

I saw a psychic 25 years ago, which was an interesting visit.  I entered his house and he immediately apologized for the mess in his house.  While he and his girlfriend were out shopping that afternoon, someone had broken into their house and stole their TV and stereo.  The police, had just left minutes before I arrived.  He said, in the confusion, he had forgotten I had an appointment.  His girlfriend, much younger than himself, was steaming around the house cursing at every corner.  He was the first psychic I had where I booked the appointment.  Up to that point in my life, I had only had card readers in various cafes.  He motioned me to sit down and as I did I noticed he stared at me.  He continued to stare for a while and then started laughing.  He again, apologized.  He said, trying to contain his laughter, "You have been a soldier for a long, long time, in your past lives.  I would say most of your lives have been spent being a soldier.  I'll bet you, that when you close your eyes, you picture a war torn battlefield.  You are, every once of your being, a soldier".  I was stunned.  He was very much correct.  All my past life memories have been about war in some form or other, and when I do close my eyes, I usually see a World War One landscape.  Sometimes I can hear it, some times I can feel it, and at the worst of times, I get all these rolled at the same time.  Today is one of those days, as I write this.  I have to be careful when I watch a fireworks show because it can evoke memories of night fighting.

Having a memory of being an Austrian infantry officer in the 1740's doesn't surprise me.  The era is one of interest to me.  My feeling is, when you have an era that is of great interest to yourself, for no explained reason, there is a chance that was a period in which you may have had a past life.  The Seven Years War, is one of those periods for myself.  The period also doesn't overlap with any of my other past life memories, which is a good sign.  The next life I lived, and remember, was when I died in Ohio in 1791.  I was about 16 or so years old, which means I was born in the 1770's.  This doesn't clash with a life lived in the Seven Years Wars, but rather leaves a 20-30 year period from which to be born.

Still, that is not proof.  My feeling is that I should meditate more and get then try to get a greater understanding of my abilities and of my past life memories.  In this life, I am suppose to reflect upon my past.  Examine it, understand it and perhaps, help others overcome their past.

Went to the psychic.  Turns out she lives about a mile from where I live, which seems strange.   I will recommend her to my friend.  She gives you a recording of the session on CD, which is very clear and easy to hear -- I tried it this morning and it was easy to listen to.  With tapes, often the background sound (hissing?) masks out much of what was recorded.  All was good.

The reading was almost identical to the readings I have had over the last three years.  I sort of expected that.  Starting back in 2009, a psychic stated to me that I am ending a cycle in my life and soon, perhaps a couple of years from now, I will be hired by a company to do some work.  From there, my life will take off.  These are the two themes that have been in almost all my psychic readings since May 2009, and those were the two themes that came out with yesterday's reading... again.  I pointed out that I have a contract with a large company and once the project has been give the green light, I will start production.  I was told it is probably something else.  Something unexpected and new, and its something that will start fairly soon... September or October?

I will see.  In the meantime, I still have work to do.  Lots of work to do, bordering on insane amount of time spent working on a day-to-day basis, which is also something the reading harped upon.  I would need to clone myself to keep up with all my work I am getting in at present, and I had to agree with the psychic on this assessment.  I am working far too hard and putting in too many long hours (100 hours a week is typical) trying to stay ahead.  However, good change is coming.  Will see.  In the meanwhile, I should raise my prices as that would curb customer orders a bit and bring in a bit more income.  Shorter working days and more income.  What a concept!

Beyond that, its business as usual.  Today I got a bit of work done, work that I needed to get out of the way.  Now it is almost 10pm and I have to start on tomorrow's work.  Still lots to do.  I will be up for at least three more hours.

I was asked by someone if I could recommend a psychic in my area.  I said, "I know of three".  The person asked me to make them an appointment so when I went home, I called all three up, one after another.  The first two are now considered "retired" and no longer do readings and the third is sick.  Oddly enough, the one who is sick has been sick for the last three months now, but never stated what sort of illness she has.  Makes me wonder what is going on.  She said, "Call me back later".  However, whenever I have called, she has been sick.  I can barely hear her on the phone.  This means I really do not know of any psychics in my area, anymore.  Then I remembered, there was one psychic I never tried before, but the problem was, I was asked to "recommend" a psychic.  How can I recommend a psychic if I have never seen her myself?  She was recommended to me, but that is not quite the same thing.  So I made an appointment for myself tomorrow.  Strangely enough, I have a question to ask.  I too am at a crossroads.  I have an odd feeling about the month of August.  Since January, my mind has been telling me that something will change in August.  There is change afoot, although it does not feel bad.

Will see what transpires.  She did come recommended to me so maybe it will be OK for me to recommend her.

I went to a hypnosis specialist last Thursday for a hypnotic regression. My fear was that I am either very difficult to hypnotize or impossible to hypnotize. I have read about 10% of the population fits into category and I am definitely one of those. I have had visions of my past lives since I was 8 years old, or so, which are very much like going into a trance, but for some reason, I do not make a good subject for hypnosis.  I had hoped I could go into a trance, but it did not seemed marginally success at best on Thursday For some reason, I just can't get into a deep trance. I have an opportunity over the next few months (may be, if I am lucky) to practice meditation and I will see if that helps. If I can relax more, perhaps that will help. Other than that, I am not sure what else to do.

The regressionist pointed out that some of her subjects go into a trance the moment they sit in the chair in her office.    Maybe I am just going about it wrong, or expecting something to happen, but missing something. Perhaps I did go into a trance, but it felt very short, if I actually did. Perhaps I went into this with wrong frame of mind? Am I too analytical, or is my mind too active to just relax?

I was asked to come back and perhaps help out as a test patient for one of her students. Will see. If I get asked, I will give it a try again. Perhaps if its someone else doing the regression, that may help?

Working away on the same projects I was working on two months ago.  My client has received two prototypes and loves them both but still wants changes.  The last change he wants are to make changes to the changes he wanted last time.  That will cost me $$ and time, both of which are in short supply.  No idea why he wants to change his pervious changes.  Still, I am told that we are close to launching these changes, it could be three weeks away.  I am still no closer to getting this finished.  Its like walking through a mud field.

Still, my sales seem to be doing OK.  The summer months are usually the slowest, but so far, my sales are doing OK.  I will have a new product ready to ship this month so that may make things even better.  Now all I need is a day off so I can rest.

On Thursday, I have to stop work because I have a hypnotic regression booked.  Will see what comes of this.  I am still not sure if I can be hypnotized.  The regressionist stated that its not a difficult state to achieve.  Will see...  If nothing else, at least it will be interesting.

I went to my regression session, but it turned out to be more of an orientation session.  We talked about past lives and expectations. Overall, it was very interesting. Turns out my regressionist studied with Michael Newton and Carol Bowman. We bantered back and forth until we came up with a target to focus upon.  So its back to waiting until July 12th for my actual regression. In the mean while, I will be working on relaxing and meditating till then.  This week has been a whirlwind of events and late nights trying to keep up with customer orders and enquiries.  Perhaps in two weeks I will be more rested.  I must cut back on my caffeine intake and get some meditation in before hand.

Odd part is, talking about my past life experiences, to the regressionist, has been a bit unsettling.  It has stirred up deep emotions. Although most of my memories are actually quite good, almost pleasant experiences, my memories of the First Crusade are not. There is something lurking beneath the surface. There is a guilt attached to that life.  I cannot say what it is, but I feel its the guilt of having been on the winning side and having been powerless to help the innocent. It was a case of being too young, without authority, to have done anything other than watch my peers and mentors commit murder.  Watching my mentors condone the brutality was an act of betrayal to my trust and beliefs.  However, I cannot but help think that, being a knight, in the First Crusade, that I too may have played an active part, although all my memories have shown that I was against committing such acts and nowhere within any of my memories have I seen myself harming anyone.  Those were brutal times, and I know I would not have hesitated to defend myself or my fellow Crusaders if attacked, but I am repulsed at the thought of having committed brutal acts against unarmed civilians.  I cannot say how much of this is seen through the heart of an 19 year old Crusader Knight and that of my life today in 2012.  What repulses us today may very well have been the way of life in 1099AD. 

A while ago, about 6 months to be exact, I was given the name of a hypnotist who specializes in past life regression. I have many memories of past lives, most of which involve the lives as a soldier.  Oddly enough, not all these memories are bad memories, or even involve combat.  Many involve camp life, marching, picket duty, off duty, etc.  One life I remember is haunting.  This was the Crusades, or more accurate, the First Crusades.  Since I was a child, I have had deep feelings about the Crusades, and then later in my life, the memories of my involvement.  I have no memories of slaying opponents, although I do remember being in combat.  What haunts me is the memory of witnessing the slaughter of innocents and being powerless to intervene. These were dark days.  

Being put in touch with someone who specializes in regression may help... or not, but I am willing to give it a try.  I have only tried hypnosis once before, without success.  However, that was not with a trained hypnotist.  I am going to see if this time around will be different.  This will occur closer to the end of the month on either the 28th or 29th.  Should be interesting.  I am going with an open heart and mind.  I am really expecting nothing.  I am not expecting to discover the purpose of my life.  Its more a curiosity, to see if I can discover more of myself.  I don't expect answers to questions, but instead will take what comes.

My latest samples were sent in today... but it will take about 8 days before the client receives them.  Once approved, we start production.  Its hard to wait 8 more days.  It took almost three months of development to get to this point.  Fingers crossed, and in the mean time, I will concentrate on my other work.  Still, it feels like a weight has been lifted from my chest as I can now move ahead.  A lot of work to do, but most of this is just catching up with past work.

We do have another new project to complete, but that is just manufacturing, getting an inventory built up before we release the product.  I have heard back from a number of people around the world that they are ready to order.  Will see.  Its not the initial orders that I need, its the orders that keep coming in throughout the year.  Fingers crossed again.

I just received an email from another author who wants to reprint an old publication he published back in 1970's.  He asked me if I would be willing to work on this project plus another project later in the year.  No idea where it will lead, or how much such a project will pay, but there is potential for such projects to become a sideline.  Designing the layout, creating the illustrations, diagrams, etc., is what will be needed and that is OK.

This month is shaping up to create a different kind of year, or perhaps a different kind of future.

I am picking up equipment today so I can finish off a sample product.  Once completed, hopefully on Monday, the samples will be shipped to the customer and once approved... I can start production.

I am also working on the layout of a book for an author.  This project has been going on for a while, but it looks like it may be finished this month.  There are at least two other books in the works once this one is finished.  The author stated he has more three in total, but I have only seen two.  Will see how that all works. Strangely enough, I took graphic design training many years ago so I could do book layout, illustration and diagrams, but I rarely had offers for this sort of work as I specialize in illustration instead.  That my actual change.  So much for finishing top in my class.  Will see where this goes.

I have three new products coming out this month.  One of them may do quite well as there is international interest.  I came out with the first product line last month and had good initial sales... I am still waiting to hear back from customers.  Most will be receiving their orders today or next week.  The only feed back I have heard so far was from a blog in Germany which stated (after viewing my product online) that my products look great and cost a third of similar products.  Oddly enough, despite the low cost, this product, at least on paper, is easily my most profitable product... only thing it lacks at this time are paying customers.  I am sure other companies are complaining about the same thing.

It seems that this month, from all other months over the last 5 years, holds more promise.  This could be a very good year.  Fingers crossed.

I saw a psychic earlier this year.  She told me was that I would be signing a contract very shortly.  She said the person whom I will be signing the contract with is older than myself and has jet black hair.  Two weeks later I signed a contract with a company.  I found out just the other day, by going online, that the gentleman is older than myself and has jet black hair.

I am now working on this project.  The project was suppose to be small and relatively easy to do.  However, it just grew from a small project to one that is worth over $1,000,000.  That is the budget... not my budget, but the budget for the project.  How did I get a front row seat on this?

Now I am struggling to get samples of my end of the project completed.  The first set were approved, but they needed tweaking.  I expected this, but now as the realization of just how big this project has become... its a bit scary.  I have to send in photos of my latest samples this evening and if approved, I will have to ship these samples in for final approval.  If OK'd... then I can start selling part of the project worldwide.  I have already had a number of people contact me asking when I will have my part completed and when can they start ordering.  This could either be a flash in the pan, and be nothing much, or it could be life changing, or something in between.  Exciting and terrifying, all rolled into one.  Will see how it all comes together.  I still have several past psychic's readings going through my head:  Once you start of this path, your life will change and you will go off in a completely new direction.  Several stated that this is the start of making huge sums of money -- personally, since I never experienced that before, I'd have to see it first, before I can really believe it.  Still, it was predicted by not one, but seven psychics.  Safety in numbers?

I was at my local bookstore a while ago looking for books to purchase.  I had been given a gift certificate, which would pay for three books.  I wasn't sure what to get so I wandered about the art area, the history shelves and then I walked through the occult section.  One book jumped out and caught my eye as I scanned the shelves and that was Michael Newton's book, Memories of the Afterlife.  I wasn't sure about the book, and wandered off, but something was nagging me to go back and get it.  Because this book seems to want me to read it, and because I came to buy a good book, I bought it.  

The book turned out to be a very profound book to read and, oddly enough, it had a number of Michael Newton's client's memories that mirror my own past life memories.  It gave me another perspective to ponder, the reasons behind our lives, and some of my past life experiences.  I found this book, and one other one I read last year, to be the two best books I have read in the last 5 years.  I cannot say that about all the books I have read recently.

After reading it, I went back and bought two others.  I am now part way through the second book, which is the first one in the series.  I now see life a little differently and it makes this life a easier to deal with.  That is not a bad thing.  It also answered a few questions I had about our lives and purpose.

Will see if this changes my life or not at a later date... right now, I must be back to work.

I had a short psychic reading about  6 weeks ago, which I felt was good, but far too short at about 10 minutes long.  I was recommended a psychic, one I had never been to before, and so I made an appointment.   The reading was a standard 1 hour long and was very much along the same lines as all the other readings I have had over the last 4 years.  It seems my future is certainly one path with little deviation.

I was told, again, and I get this almost every time I go see a psychic, that I am psychic.  Not sure how many people are told this, but I have heard this from a few people over the years, that the psychic they visited with told them that they too are psychic.  There are several possible answer for this:
    1)  They tell everyone this.
    2)  If you seek a psychic, there is a chance you are intuitive yourself.

I am sure there are many other possibilities. 

My future, as told by recent psychics, is that my future is paved in gold, which is more me paraphrasing and being hopeful at the same time.  Starting around 1980, psychics have been saying that my life will start into high gear when I am around 51 to 52 years of age.  A couple said that I should "hang on tight" because once it starts, it will only get better and better.  I have noticed, starting in November last year that my business has picked up noticeably, and I have new ideas for more new products that I will be developing and producing.  Will see...

One funny point... the psychic started the reading by stating, "You like to get readings done often, don't you.  You are one of those people who likes to get more than one opinion before believing or moving ahead in life".  She was the first psychic I have seen to point this out.  Its been a bit of an experiment with me.  I went to several psychics about three years ago, just to see if their predictions would be the same, or not.  Turned out all their predictions were the same, including the last two readings I have had this year.  I usually go to a psychic once or twice a year, but only if I feel a pull to do so, or if I have a psychic recommended to me.  I have to feel a reason to go.  I don't feel I have to go again for a while.  Instead, I will concentrate on my life and work and leave the rest to the universe... although I will be picturing, manifesting, a successful future.  I suppose if my grandmother had not been psychic, I may not looked for psychics for answers to questions.  I still feel that most answers are available from within ourselves.  However, once a year, my grandmother used to invite gypsies to camp out on her front lawn, and then she would get "her" personal reading.  Must have been interesting to see, since my grandmother lived in an upper, middle class neightborhood.  I am sure the blockwatch captain would have something to say about that today.

One point that has been stressed over and over again by psychics over the last 30 years is that I need to start meditating.  I have meditated in the pasted, but my work always interferes.  I started meditating last year September and started to see positive results including past life memories, but life threw in a curve ball and that ended that.  I started again yesterday, which went well enough, but this afternoon, it was one interruption after another, which did not help.  I will try again later tonight.  Can't hurt to try.  It will be interesting to see what the results will be.

I went to see a psychic three weeks ago.  It was a short reading as that is all she does.  In all, about 10 minutes.  The future she saw was grand, full of change and great opportunities.  Nothing bad.  However, it was a short reading.  I find it odd that all my readings, over the last 4 years, have predicted the same great future.  In most readings, the date set for change was the fall/winter of 2011 into Spring 2012.  I can feel some change has occurred, but nothing on the grand scale as predicted, although Spring 2012 isn't here yet and Spring lasts 3 months.

I met up with a few people the other day and the topic surprisingly, was about psychics.  I say "surprisingly" because psychics is a rare topic of discussion among my friends.  Most of these people recommended a specific psychic  to me, one ~I had never heard or seen before.  I didn't tell anyone I was looking.  They said her readings center more on what you need to do with your life, as apposed to what is about to happen in your life.  This sounds better somehow.  I rarely go to a psychic unless one is recommended -- just feels better that way.

Still, I am amazed that I have seen around 7 psychics over the last four years.  All were recommended to me.  I chose none myself.  All the psychics gave me the same reading to a greater extent.  Some predictions were grander than others, but the overall theme and predictions were the same.

How long does it take from a psychic reading to the fruition of a prediction?
