They told me that my mother was experiencing some intestinal issues and that she needed to go to the doctor. I told my mom about it off-handedly and she was shocked because she had been feeling a lot of indigestion and swollen ankles. She didn't go to the doctor (she never ever did even though she was supposed to be on medication and under treatment for a stroke she'd had 4 years prior) and she had a heart attack and died immediately like, a couple of weeks later. </p> <p>So, I don't use them anymore. They give me the heebie jeebies.</p> <p>ETA: Sorry for the bumfest ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246789 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 09:14:36 +0000 wheres_c 246789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I once had a few too many at YOLO's ladies night and there was a psychic there, so I got a reading.<br /> She told me that I would be having a boy soon and that I might even be pregnant then (I wasn't).<br /> She said she saw me getting married very soon and owning my own business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246770 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 09:07:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 246770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: it's a memoir and not one of his fiction books. it's great!</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060509058" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060509058</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246766 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 09:03:10 +0000 Meridian 246766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: I'm going to have to look up that book! I'm a big Crichton fan but haven't heard of that one....</p> <p>I had my cards read at a party once. I can't remember much of what she said, but I think she said I was going to have a baby by age 31. Nope, not the case! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246725 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 08:35:18 +0000 lovehoneybee 246725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a reading in Jackson Square in mid-Aug 2005. I was leaving the Quarter and only had cab fare but the tug at the table I was walking by insisted that he HAD to read me, called me by name and did it for free.</p> <p>He told me my world was about to be shaken up and changed by major forces outside of my control, and I'd end up moving across the country, but not to be scared because everything wad going to work out and I'd meet my soulmate within the year.</p> <p>2 weeks later Hurricane Katrina hit. 3 weeks later I moved to PA. Almost exactly a year to the day after the reading I met DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246721 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 08:32:56 +0000 Clementine 246721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do believe certain people on this Earth have those gifts, but I think God is sovereign and I just need to trust in His plans for me. Don't get me wrong, if I didn't have these beliefs, I probably talk to a psychic 1x a week since I hate not being in control. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246710 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 08:27:04 +0000 Mrsbells 246710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never been to a psychic or fortune teller type person. Even though i get anxious wondering about the future I think I am better off not knowing the future until it becomes the present. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246678 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 08:09:28 +0000 Mrs. Bee 246678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wow that is so cool! </p> <p>i've never been but i've always wanted to esp after reading michael crichton's book travels. in it he goes to see a different psychic every day, and he says that they definitely have some power that the average person doesn't. i know there are a lot of quacks out there too, but i do believe there are some people who have some abilities! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246653 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 07:22:55 +0000 dagret 246653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: that's really cool that she's been accurate (so far). My friend's mom is psychic and she asked her what we are having and she said girl. I'm pretty sure her mom told her that I would get pregnant soon bc she kept telling me she knew we would get pregnant, it was a matter of time. But her mom won't tell you any bad stuff, just the good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246652 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 07:20:38 +0000 dagret 246652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is A bit off-topic...I've never consulted a psychic but my husband and I spoke to an animal communicator once. (really!). His aunt used her and she told his aunt that both of her dogs had Lyme and they needed to get them treatment ASAP- and they did. It was all over the phone. We just sat on the couch, split a bottle of wine, and talked about our (now-deceased) dog. She told us he was kicked out of a house bc he didn't get along with a bigger dog, and he really missed the kids in his old family. I know, it brings the Buster Woods montage in legally blonde to mind...but it was fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246643 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 07:10:52 +0000 chopsuey 246643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't! Thought it would be fun, but freaks me out at the same time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246635 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 07:06:02 +0000 hellobeeboston 246635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a reading once - about 9 years ago from a friends friend who is apparently a psychic. She told me I would be married soon -- didn't happen for another like 7 years... And told me my dad was very sick and I should be concerned -- which was totally off, my dad hasnt been sick once in the past decade..</p> <p>So, my one and only experience wasn't a great one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246626 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 06:49:13 +0000 PrincessBaby 246626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@alison206: Hey! Her name is Jenny Renny. Let me know if you can't find her site - I don't know if I'm supposed to post things like that on here, but I'll put it on your wall if you can't locate her!</p> <p>I should note that she gave me a birth reading that basically said Harper will come almost a week late - and it's already been decided that I'll be induced early in my 39th week, so she's technically already wrong there. But I didn't give a crap about that:) She was right about the important stuff!</p> <p>I'm sorry for your loss:( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246621 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 06:41:44 +0000 ladybee 246621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JHoller25: Do you have her information? I'd pay for it!</p> <p>I went to one once and she informed me that I would miscarry my first pregnancy and that I'd go one to have 3 healthy children. Well here I sit TTC after a miscarriage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246521 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 23:08:10 +0000 leelee 246521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup I've gone to a couple, DH hates that I believe them! When we were TTC I couldn't justify spending $40 on a in person psychic reading so like you I spent $15 on a Internet one. I went back to read her reading recently and she said we were going to have a total of 4 children ( 2 boys, 2 girls). She said our first was going to be a girl and that I was going to have a smooth pregnancy and that she would be born or conceived in June. I had a very smooth pregnancy and DD was born just a couple weeks ago June 25th. It could've been coincidence but I think psychics are fun, plus it was only $15 dollars! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246513 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 23:01:38 +0000 ChuckNorris 246513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: That is such a WEIRD story. </p> <p>I personally have not sought one out, but my mom did and they talked about me. She was right in every aspect, that I wouldn't stay with that guy, that I would change my career path and was accurate as to what I'd change it to, and she guessed my number, which is 7, and continues to show up in my life...all the time. We just went to a giant's game and someone else bought tickets and I sat in seat 7. </p> <p>My mom did not tell her anything about me other than the month and day I was born and she pulled all of that from it. She didn't even say her relationship to me... It was recorded. She showed me after things came true. It was WILD. It was a lot more expensive though, $250. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246509 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:56:18 +0000 matador84 246509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>about 4-5 years ago before i was even married, i was approached by a man in the parking lot of my apartment complex. i lived in a really nice area and he wasn't really out of place looking. um, my memory is fuzzy, but he basically started asking me questions about my future and present and knew things no one else in the world could have known! i was thinking ok, this guy is going through my mail or something, but that totally isn't the case because i had my mail sent to a po box elsewhere. then, when i was in vegas for my own wedding about a year after that, i was approached by a random lady who couldn't believe how strong my aura was. i know nothing about auras but she was just in awe that it was so strong.</p> <p>so...i've never been to a psychic on my own, but i would love to go to one. i loveeee that show long island medium, even though she isn't a psychic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246455 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:23:49 +0000 Honeybee 246455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my cards read a long time ago. I can't remember a lot of the stufff the psychic said, but I do remember she said I'd marry a tall guy with dark hair. I think that description fit almost all the boyrfriends I have ever had plus my husband, so I guess she was right? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246449 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:19:34 +0000 yoursilverlining 246449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done a bunch for fun that were your typical vague responses that you can interpret any way you want; but one lady I saw (twice) in NYC was amazing. I was living in FL at the time, and she said I would move back at a time when I actually did move back to new England. She talked to me in specifics about things in my past which no one, not even my mother, knows about. She also told me my future husband was already in my life, his name was short, started with the letter R and that we would have a daughter (2 daughters in total). My husband's name is Ron and now we have a daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246431 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:05:51 +0000 mrsjazz 246431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen a few psychics and always did it for fun and just to see what they'd say, but my best reading was with a voodoo priestess while I was in New Orleans. She did this reading with chicken bones over the astrological chart and only asked me my birth date. She kind of spooked me with the things she knew/saw. It's the only reading I've had that rang true, the rest were laughable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246429 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:00:38 +0000 PrincessBaby 246429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pretty much just wanted to know about the baby...I think I just wanted to know that I would have one. I definitely had a lot of days where I wondered if it would ever REALLY happen. And I got the birth reading to kind of make me feel like I would definitely have a delivery? Desperation makes us do crazy stuff:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246423 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:58:12 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 246423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never gone but would love to get a reading. I don't know how i would react to it though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246422 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:57:40 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 246422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my palm read and cards done (not sure what that's called) at the fair once. She told me that I would marry my current boyfriend one day (I did) and that we would have twins. The twins are yet to be determined. I didn't pay for it though. I was working at an ice cream booth and we exchanged services. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246421 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:56:59 +0000 mrs. bird 246421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've gone to two of them. Neither predicted the life I have now. But I love this life more than I could ever have loved the life they predicted! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-used-a-psychic#post-246415 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:52:51 +0000 PrincessBaby 246415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I grew desperate in our TTC efforts, and read about a "Baby Psychic" on a baby board. I'm embarrassed to admit that I sent $15 to one of these psychics and she told me (in December 11) that I would get pregnant in March with a boy. </p> <p>After my 2 chemical pregnancies in Jan and Feb, I am even more embarrassed to admit that I sought her out again to see if she could do a new reading in light of the CPs, to see if anything had "changed." She predicted that I would still get pg in March. I did. This one stuck.</p> <p>I am even MORE embarrassed to admit that I got her to do a third reading where she confirms gender and tells you a little bit about what your birth will be like. She told me that she actually saw me having a girl, not a boy as she had originally thought. We found out a few weeks later that we're having a girl.</p> <p>Have you ever consulted a psychic? Were they correct? </p>
