For those of you who have experience doing such readings, or just are familiar with the subject matter... Using tarot and empathy plus God knows what else (still trying to figure it out), I have been able to give very simple past life readings using my cards. The cards give me their info, but then I also get images in my head of the person's appearance and events/fate. The thing is, sometimes, I don't know what to believe. Sometimes it's all too real, but sometimes it seems too far-fetched. So, for those of you with experience, how do you help distinguish between the real and imagination?
I feel ya...its sometimes a matter of trial and error OF COURSE if you think of things more psychologically that helps as well. My gifts are VERY imaginative!!! Sometimes I wake up with a song in my head i havent heard(to my knowledge) for weeks or months and one morning it will start playing clear as day. I sometimes think its a spirit singing to me...but sometimes I take it as a sign(think eli stone). Other times I have visions that play out like paintings or movies. It will have the people from my life only in this far fetched plot. SO I am left to interpret it OR tell it like it is(since my friends are artsy) and they will know what it is. Besides most tarot books get around to teaching symbology eventually I mean thats what it all comes down to. IF you look at a card and think Santa(well if Santa is good then it could mean a warm generous man in someones future). But if you have a fear of bearded men invading into your home...well theres an old horror movie that comes to mind here. So its really about what does it mean to you and how will it effect someones life. IF one day you wake up and feel like your friend shouldnt go on that date...advise her and tell her why. If she wants to go she will go and then you'll learn and if not then how much of a loss is it. I trust my gifts but its in the nature of all readers to have second thoughts. If the future was so solid we'd all win the lottery and I think the world will have been finished by now.
As for the the TRUTH of the matter... its about testing it out..seeing how you feel with each vision and what not. As for past life readings...if you really want your mind to losen up...buy a relaxing tape and guide yourself back. Its not so hard. I've had one professionally done. I've had the tapes. I read the book. The technique is the same only annoying traits are different(the tapes i mean here). And honestly most books you can BS yourself which is why I am so anti-book.
If your relaxed it will allow thoughts to pop in your head that you will be surprised about.
