I have been written on mostly the negatives of being psychic and seeing things considered paranormal. As you work your way through all the unknowns of being psychic, there is a proverbial light at the end of the tunnel. It is however an individual opinion however whether the grass is really greener on the other side – pun intended.
Working with and improving your newfound talents opens up a new world not readily accessible to most people. If you are curious about your new world, properly using your newfound talent is rewarding, uplifting, and most importantly, self validating. Using your gifts for the wrong purpose leads to you being labeled as a fraud or con artist and putting yourself in a position where you can be greatly hurt or harmed, both psychically and physically.
The best learning is to learn about ourselves. Spending some time each day or each week reflecting or meditating leads to better insight about ourselves, our world, and our spiritual self. It may become possible to know and understand many of the spiritual mysteries of the world, religious mysteries and non religious too. Knowing things about our existence that others guess at.
Knowing, not guessing or believing something that may or may not be true brings a feeling of peace. You understand your place in the world and what you bring to the table to make life better for all. You no longer wonder about differences in belief systems. You understand many things considered supernatural. Knowing is within your ability if you choose to want to know. Knowing brings contentment to your life.
 I believe psychic talent is a mixed bag. On one side is some of the questions we ponder daily are answered. It is rewarding to be able to help people in certain areas of their life. It is rewarding to help people find reasonable solutions to their problems or pointing them in a direction where they can be helped. It is especially rewarding not to be scared of the generally unseen or unknown.
Learning how to be properly responsible is a secondary gift. Sometimes people do not want to know anything new, even though they say they do. Telling them something they need to hear but do not want to hear, only makes them angry and resentful. At times it is best to stick to the middle road.
Helping someone who has passed over can be very rewarding, especially if that person is in a situation that they can not rest from until they fix it. Helping someone who never felt quite complete become a whole person spiritually is also very rewarding, and satisfying.
Do not expect everyone you may help to be happy about the process. Sometimes helping people brings back memories they spent years forgetting, and although they may be grateful they now feel complete, they may not be happy with the memories that comes with that feeling. In time though people you have helped are thankful for the experience.
Learning the truth about our spiritual life or spiritual world makes life more exciting and more rewarding. Knowing our individual purpose or path is wonderful. We are not in our life by accident. We came here for a purpose and understanding what that purpose is and working towards that purpose is very satisfying. Knowing that we are not a world of billions of individuals living apart, but melded by shared goals and shared vision makes life fuller.
Of course for any of these things to be known instead of wondered, imagined, or read, one must pass a series of challenges or tests. As silly as the idea sounds, it is true. As a responsible adult you would not give children dangerous toys to play with hoping they will treat them with respect. Neither are the gifts you find you have complete and honed to their highest abilities. To use your gifts to their utmost, you should be responsible with them.
The first challenge is setting your fears of the unknown aside. You must be able to set fear aside and look beyond childish attempts to scare you away. Learning how to see the world in a new way without becoming overwhelmed or bitter is a beginning step too. You will need to have enough wisdom to know when it is a good time to be scared and ask for help, because something is beyond your ability alone.
In the world of the paranormal as in the mundane, no one is an island as much as it feels like it at times. We each have our own path to follow, and it may seem as if we are individuals, though really we are working towards a common purpose or goal. Using your gifts or talents properly instead of being scared of them is what you were meant to do. Your gifts when used properly will bring fulfillment and purpose into your life.

My best to you and your new future as it unfolds before you!
Do you prefer to be away from people. Do you find people or places drain your energy, or when you are around people for too long you start feeling sad? Do you get depressed around crowds of people? Do you suddenly feel scared, or have feelings of dislike from certain individuals without any real reason? Do you know a person you are talking to has a hidden life they keep secret from others?
If so you may belong to a unique group of people who are known as Empaths. Empathy is picking up on and feeling emotion or other characteristics of someone or something. They could be standing right next to you or be far away, distance is not a concern. I think people who think they have been in contact with what are called ‘psychic vampires’ are likely Empaths who do not know they are.
Empaths usually do not enjoy groups of people, and are occasionally thought of as loners or distant. Empaths are sort of chameleons in they pick up and feel the emotions of others as easily as they feel their own thoughts and emotions. Generally these are the stronger emotions, such as loneliness, sorrow, wanting, and the like.
 Someone who displays the characteristics of an Empath can be happy and having fun and suddenly start to feel lonely or depressed without any reason for the change in emotion other than someone they have an emotional bond with or a strong personality they have recently been in contact with is feeling these strong emotions.
Mainstream community thinking in general dismisses someone being an Empath just as psychic ability is dismissed or attributed as a lucky guess or two. For someone who knows they are an Empath, they have close up and prsonal understanding of what is going on around them.
Being an Empath is difficult as emotions and feeling need to be constantly checked against a personal standard because of the degrees of emotions. It is possible an Empath may feel sad over something that happened in their day, but their sadness in amplified by the feeling of another that inadvertently became part of their feeling of sadness without their realizing it even happened.
Of course on thought to be aware of is empathy can be mistaken for physical or emotional disorders that one may not even be aware of. Being an Empath makes life difficult. Unlike someone who is not, emotions or feelings should not be taken for granted as being your own, but examined as whether they came from an external source.
With enough practice in examining your own feelings and emotions, it will become second nature and you won’t even notice you are doing it. It is easier to manage the emotional roller coaster many Empaths find themselves on when they can quickly dismiss a thought or emotion as belonging to someone or something else, and not their own.
I think a number of people who think they suffer from depression, take medication that does not help, and have no physical reason to hold strong emotion are Empaths and do not know it. It may be people who think of themselves as clairvoyant, or sensitives are empaths, or perhaps empaths belong under one of those labels.
Validation is important if you think you are communicating with someone or something. Being scared or nervous about what is happening to you sometimes makes for a loose interpretation of what you think you see or heat, though precision comes with practice. So it is with validating what you think you know. You may know the general subject, but miss the fine details if you are too quick to decide.
Spirits and other entities have been here as long as mankind has been around, perhaps longer. Ancient to modern day texts are filled with examples of spirit and human interaction. The Bible is full of spirit visits, demons, angels and hidden knowledge. Jesus is mentioned many times talking with spirits of one sort or another.
Ancient civilizations are well documented having seers, fortune tellers, and dream readers. Spiritual healing is common in both ancient and modern cultures. Today there are still ancient societies which know there are more worlds than the our one physical world.
Spirits do not go away because we grow up, or technology advanced. What has happened is most of us have become incapable of realizing they are around. Our parents became to involved in modern life, and forgot to teach us there is more to life than electronic toys.
 We are told from early childhood the Boogie Man in the closet, Leprechauns and their pots of gold, and the Tooth Fairy are children’s stories, and nothing more. If we disagree we are told in a more firm manner. We are told that there is a God, but God is distant and uncommunicative with us. We are so conditioned we can not even hear God when we are spoken to. We think God left home a few thousand years ago. We write these things off to our imagination, or a trick of our ears or eyes.
We were all born with some psychic ability. Unfortunately by the time we reach adulthood, most of us firmly believe nothing exists unseen except a God we don’t know and Satan. We are conditioned to believe God is distant and quiet, and Satan is all too active attempting to trip us in up as we live our life.
For many people Satan is everywhere or nowhere. Satan is the bringer of everything wrong in our life, and God won’t fix it for us. Seeing a dead Aunt in the middle of the night is a demon in disguise trying to trick us. Truth is we have already deceived ourselves long before that happens.
We do not imagine being surrounded by angels, but we easily imagine being surrounded by demons. We are not, most of us aware of the two or more beings that are with us every moment we draw a breath. We think animals are inane, soulless, creatures, and we alone are the only creature God, if God exists has any interest in. We are so conditioned in our arrogance, most of us would not recognize Satan if Satan stood right in front of us and smiled for our camera.
There are multitudes of beings or entities living in and roaming around our world who can speak with us if they choose. Some of us can hear and talk with them too, even if we would prefer not to. Any living plant, insect, or animal can speak with us if we allow it, and they choose to speak. Other things we do not think of as alive also can communicate of we only listen.
People with paranormal abilities discover this and accept it. Some entities or beings have interests that align with ours, and willingly form alliances for our mutual benefit. Other entities have only their interests in mind which clash with ours, and they may see us as their enemy. Others are simply neutral.
Some beings are very unsociable, and will quickly let you know it. Others are chatter boxes and hard to quiet down once they start talking. They are generally like us.They have their wants and needs which may or may not be similar to ours. Those who have passed on and not yet started life in their new dimension can become pests or bullies if not quelled when they discover you can hear them.

How do you decide if you, or someone you know is the real deal, scamming, or living in a fictional world? I had to figure this out for myself. I will share what I know with you with the intention that it will help you, or someone you know decide where they fit. It sounds simple and perhaps it is. It is not that simple when it is you, and you do not know what to do or where to look for help.
No matter how scared or confused you may feel over what is happening remember you are in charge almost without exception. The only exception I know of is if you were playing with what we know as demonic spirits. If you gave it permission to be around you because you thought it would be fun, you may have a problem now. They will attach to you, if you let them close to you, or you called on them for whatever reason.
Once they attach to you, they tend to undergo a personality change and won’t be the pleasant company you would prefer. You may need help getting rid of it/them unless you have a strong resolve. Not too many people have that level of resolve to deal with that type of spirit alone because they initially asked it to be a part of their world.
 First and foremost, you must believe there is nothing to be scared of because there is not anything more spiritually powerful than you are. You are not abnormal, cursed, or possessed. There are lots of people who are just like you. They found explanations and you will too.
Nothing can hurt you unless you allow it to. No matter what you see, or hear, or feel emotionally,nothing can harm you unless you give it permission to harm or hurt you. You can demand anything you do not want around you to go away from you and never return you will be obeyed. Or you can speak to it, and see what it wants. Maybe it needs or wants your help to do something.
Do you have repetitive dreams, such as meeting the same group of people, or being visited by the same person with some frequency? They may not be scary dreams, but dreams that have no link to your every day life. You may dream about living somewhere you have never been. Or know about places and streets of towns or cities you have never read about before. You may dream about living in a different time or country.
If it is real, then it becomes a matter of is it something you want to get involved with or not. Tell yourself you don’t want these experiences and they go away eventually in many cases. If you were to meet someone on the street, you do not immediately trust them. If someone tells you something that doesn’t make sense, you usually do not believe them.
The same rules apply. Don’t be quick to judge, or quick to trust. Don’t believe what you see either. A scary or gross image, can as easily be a baby kitten, someone your age, or a lovely man or woman. Big, little, beautiful, ugly, or gross, it’s only an image for you to see. Our rules and our physics do not apply here. Sometimes the image is for showing what can not be said.
Can anything you believe you see, know, or hear be verified by someone else who does not have any interest in you? If you hear someone call your name from above and to the right, does anyone else hear it too? If you see visions, ghosts, people, or something else, does anyone around you see or feel anything as it happens before you tell them?
Do you know something you should not or could not know? Perhaps you know for example an incident in someone’s personal life. Something they have never shared with you or something that can be verified? Do you ever suddenly realize you know something about a stranger you just met? Do you suddenly know something about someone who has recently died because they just told you?
You need to determine whether what is happening around you is real, imagination, or coincidence. You should test it as you should test your beliefs. You should not believe anything is real or true because you want it to be. It may be you have an overactive imagination, or you cue off of something you are not even aware of.
You may have a medical condition that is causing whatever is going on. Do not take anything spiritual or paranormal at face value. Demand proof and be a hard nosed sceptic about yourself and your experiences. Once every possibility is eliminated you are left knowing what you experience (like it or not) is real.

He told me you buy some bibles, not expensive bibles, but bibles that could be expensive, if you do not look too close. Some bibles with red lettering, because red stands out, and looks more expensive. You follow the obituaries, and try to track down addresses. Once you have the address you put the name of the surviving spouse on the front of the bible in gold leaf. Then you wait until a few days after the funeral.
You show up in the evening when you are sure no other family members are around. That is when the real aloneness is setting in and grief is at a very high level. You knock on the door and when they answer you tell them the story about how their spouse had this very bible on lay away, and they were going to pick it up this week. You continue with how you happen to be reading something by the obituary section of the newspaper, and recognized the name.
You continue, now that you have their grief pouring out, and their need to touch anything that belonged to their beloved passed on spouse, and they had paid you half the money, and there still is a payment for the bible, and are they interested? Of course they are, they are desperate to bring their spouse back to life! You fill in the dead space telling them that the dead spouse was going to have an inscription written on the inside, so the bible would become a family heirloom. No you do not know where or what, only that they had mentioned it in passing, the day they put it on lay away.
Of course the surviving spouse thinking you are an angel in human form, pays you whatever amount you told mentioned was left to pay on the bible. They are overwhelmed with emotion – and you just took advantage of their grief, and took money away from them that you should not have taken. That is a really ugly, some might even say pathetic scam that used to be popular when there was less money flying around than there is today, and people were more trusting.
Today scammers are more suave. They set up internet sites, they send you snail mail, they stand on side walks, at intersections, and beg from the corner. They are making a fortune, and nobody seems to care. The better ones I have heard of are making more than the average income in the United States, and all they have to do is look poor and needy.
I watch them at intersections doing there scams. People, believing they are doing something good can’t dig into their pockets quickly enough. They give change, dollar bills, they give five dollar bills, and the people taking it are making a wonderful living. So good in fact, they work some corners in shifts because the money in their buckets gets too heavy and to obvious.
They also send mail, sometimes with little religious trinkets, and some story about how the mission they represent is helping to feed so many starving orphans somewhere. If you search on the internet they do not exist. If you expect more than one mailing form them, they do not exist. They are a quick, one stop shop. One stop shopping, into your wallet and out again.
No one likes to be seen as cold and uncaring, but everyone can donate responsibly if they only take time to think before they act on impulse. It is not that hard to give money to scammers. It is no harder to think before you do. If you never heard of them before, they probably won’t exist in a few weeks. If they want any amount of money from you right now, they are scamming you.
If you want to donate to a cause, donate through your church, the International Red Cross, or another well known organization. Do not be one of thousands who blindly give money to people who find stealing from you is easier than working for a living, and it pays better. There always will be a great need for charity in the world, but give wisely, not foolishly.
I used to work with a get rich quick master! He was into Bling, lots of it! He was at every show and get together that came through our part of the world. He started out selling household products, then he was selling some other companies household products, he slid into the stock market for a few months, then on to three or four failed pyramid schemes. He was also a new, then used car salesman, tried to get into real estate with an early version of house flipping, precious metals speculation. And I do not know how many other sure fire programs he either tried out, or tried to sell to others. Unfortunately his enthusiasm for getting rich quick thinking cost him his car and his family. But no one could ever accuse him of not having focus!
His involvement in his last and biggest pyramid scheme came under the scrutiny of the Attorney General of the state of Colorado. It is a good time to mention that he did not approach all these ventures all by himself. He always took someone with him. By the time he talked me into joining him at these money ,aking wonders he was near the end of his career. I went with him to listen to more than one or couple who drove up in a sixty foot RV talk about how they made it to that level, and how we could to, with just a little effort. My friend after listening to these ‘talks’ would be twisting and squirming in his chair like a man with pain where the chair meets the seat. He usually looked like he was ready to jump up and scream ‘Amen’ or something similar [I thought] at the end of these talks. We would always have about the same discussion driving home. What do you think?, he would say. I think it is a great program if you are willing to invest the time, I would reply. I think this is the one – like I never heard that one before. And so on and so forth until the next opportunity arrived.
After he explained this last one to me, he asked what I thought. It is a pyramid scheme I told him, this one is so obvious I can’t believe it is still going on! No it’s not, he said, it went to court in ’some state’ and it was declared perfectly legal. But that is not this state, I replied. Doesn’t matter, if it is legal in that state, they will make it legal here too, was his response. He ever the money making optimist. Off he charged with this guaranteed program with fire in his eyes. He definitely was believer this time, he talked about ten people to jump right in with him. His own little empire in the making and he was at the top of it. He told me how the money would be rolling in. I mentioned to him about this getting attention in Colorado, and the Attorney General declaring it illegal. He laughed and said it would not happen here, I was not as up on the law as he was.
Just a few months later and he was scared, terrified actually. Arrest, and prosecution were a very possible future for him. He might be arrested any moment, and could be facing serious prison time for a variety of offenses the State had declared occurred. Several months passed, and for my friend it was a mixed bag. He managed to keep himself from being arrested and going to prison, but it was at a very high price. Remember at the beginning when I mentioned him losing his car and his family? He had put a lot of money into this deal, and what little he kept out, went as a down payment for his legal fees. On top of his car, and his family, went his job, and his self respect. For all his dreams, he went and joined the ranks of those that give up on life and started down the spiral path that is so hard to get out of.
I wish he would have been a little more cautious in his ventures. I said many times that any valid and legal business venture will make anyone wealthy if they are willing to put in the time. He never thought about working to make his dreams come true because he wanted it all right now.
I doubt he had taken the time to even see if his wife was okay with his plans for their ever bright future. He should have at least had her blessings in his ventures. I wish he would have actually put some real effort into his ventures. He went forth into these ventures with stars in his eyes, and in his haste he ended up on the dark side of the moon.
