Anybody had a good experience with a medium/psychich?

Im not talking general stuff, I mean were they specific in giving names, dates, events when connecting with a spirit. I find this stuff very intriguing.

Also do people believe in this sort of thing?

I rode a medium one night, was well on it. Even had the dawn shot.

New people will enter your life shortly, they will misunderstand you.

There was a medium living down the road from me who had to close her business due to unforeseen circumstances.

Why is a psychic called a "medium"?

Because it's not well done.

Total scam artists, its always vague,initials and could refer to anybody - give me a full name a dob and a social security number .. then i´ll start to listen.

Even when one of those charlatans was caught being prompted in one of her dublin shows, people still defended her and go to her shows.

Fools and their money, OP why would you find that bollix intriguing anyway ?

Ever heard of reality ?

I suggest this as a read

Don't know why, but that made me laugh.

I used to be a Tarot card reader but I gave it up. I could see no future in it.

There are two indications that to me should clearly demonstrate to anyone that psychic powers are bollocks.

1. That no-one is using their powers to make a load of money. I refuse to believe that all psychics are so incorruptible.

2. That no-one has gone public with at least strong evidence to suggest they have genuine powers (which would be very easy to demonstrate). How could so many people resist the attention?

Yes, I only listen to Fergus Gibson before starting out my day.

This reminds me of a Mrs. Browns Boys conversation.

Deano or one of his friends: "Oh I love to call the psychic line, they see dead people"
Mrs. Brown: "They see feckin' eejits with credit cards"

Look up this fellow on Netflix, fascinating documentary

He debunks them

I sense...you are from the south, perhaps Cork or Kerry, with strong connections to the south-west. You prefer the country to the big city. You have a questioning mind and a strong sense of justice, with an abiding interest in the dear departed who are definitely just behind that veil there waiting to talk to you. Mystery attracts you, although you're a quiet sort, who likes reading.

Also, I sense a man with light hair, perhaps it's grey, the spirit world is very misty and everything looks a bit grey. He could be blond. His initials are..A..E? Spiky letter anyway, could be N or M...

Mediuming is just about cold reading, taking cues from the speaker, noting what they're wearing, type of clothing, jewelry, and most importantly, responding to how the person starts to react to anything they say. Widening eyes, follow that cue, you're onto something. Confused look, keep shifting the goalposts slightly until the very vague stuff you say can be possibly made relevant to something. Leave gaps for the mark to start helpfully responding (since we're cued to answer when there's a pause). Etcetera.

I'm not going to flatly say that there's no such thing as ghosts or spirits because, meh, I don't know. But I don't think there has been a single documented case of a medium saying "Yep, I see your mother, her name is Angela Lucinda Greene, died in childbirth 14 years ago, she wants you to know that she buried treasure under the third hedge to the left of the front door, and she really hates those paisley curtains you put up in the living room." and being right

Enough people do that quite a few people can make a career out of exploiting them. I am not aware of any reason to put actual stock in it however.

I always hate it if you see that the police have brought in one of these chancers to help with an investigation.

Talk about giving a sign to the public that you haven't a clue what has happened.

I went to a medium once and she said that one of my friends was pregnant or would get pregnant soon, and like, within a year, one of my friends was pregnant!

Exactly, also what a message it sends, that this is actually a real trustworthy field :eek:.

I think they only get their "help" in the USA ?
Have you ever heard of this in Ireland ?

"I sense there was a death in your family..........that this death was a particularly sad one............people........people were sad that this person died."

"Ohmahgawd, yes!! So spooky!"

Con artists and delusionals who have a knack for using careful phrasing on people, operating as mentalists. None have ever been proven and have been repeatedly debunked / shown up, even their biggest names have been found to be frauds on numerous occasions.

Derren Brown did an interesting documentary on these and, you know, I agree with what his conclusion was - what they'r doing is morally wrong, but at the same time they do provide a lot of comfort to bereaved people.
