Just my kind of thread
Firstly Tori, Budge is spot on and that poem brought a lump to my throat! You will find happiness again, not only that but be happier than you ever thought possible, but first you have to heal and get your strength back - and you will in time, you have to believe that
I do think though that while mediums and spiritualists are great for guidance, I dont think they help when you are as low as you are feeling right now, as you will only project negative emotions and attract negative responses. Plus if you do find yourself with a charlatan they will want to cash in on your pain and I wouldnt wish that on anyone.
I do read tarot, I have been doing them for about 18 years, and Oracle cards, and I am a witch, joking aside
Id be happy to do you a reading tomorrow sometime, PM me your email address and I'll give it a go. Ive been pretty spot on in the past and would love to help.
Back on topic though, my beliefs are centred around experiences ive had, Im open minded but I'm also a "see it to beleive it" person, and I think ive been lucky enough to experience the most amazing things!
When I was about 12 I used to get the school bus and always sat in the same place - front left corner on the top deck. It was MY seat lol (I dont know if anyone understands school bus politics but they are very complex and your seat is your seat only
)
I had a dream that I was on the bus in my normal place, when the bus crashed into a tree and all I saw was this bough coming towards me, glass shattering, and then I woke up with a major headache and ringing in my ears. I thought it was just a dream but some instinct told me not to go to school that day, so I pretended I was sick and stayed home. The bus crashed into a bough that morning, no-one was seriously hurt, just a few cuts from the glass, but the seat I would have been sat on got the worst damage and as it was MY seat, no-one was sat there.
When I was 14 (I had just started getting into tarot and witchcraft etc) I had planned a day trip to london with some friends. Myself, my best friend, her boyfriend and he's best mate who I had a crush on. My friends boyfriend was going to drive. (they were a bit older than us
) Anyway the night before I had a very vivid lucid dream that we were on the motorway, my friend and I in the back, her BF driving and he's mate was in the front passenger seat but he was fading in and out, one minute he was there the next he wasnt. We were laughing at something and then I looked up and we were heading for the back of a lorry, I screamed and we hit it, and the car exploded, I could feel the flames burning my skin and I woke up sweating and screaming and I could smell burning flesh.
So I told my friend about it when she came to collect me and said that I didnt think we should go, but she asked what colour the car was, I told her red and she said well he's car is blue so it cant be true.
We got to her BF's house and hes friend wasnt there yet, he said he wasnt sure if he was going to be there or not (in my dream I wasnt sure if he was there or not, fading in and out) and then that he had a problem with his car so he was going to borrow his mums. I asked what colour his mums car was - it was red. I told him about my dream and refused to go, especially after my last dream warning, so no-one did. I'll never know if it would have really happened or not but it was a little too much of a coincidence to take the risk!
Ive had many many dreams like that since, but none that potentially saved my life - just little insignificant things like parts of conversations that then happen the next day, certain symbols or numbers that occur repeatedly the day after dreaming about them, just random stuff - I think I do have the potential to be quite psychic but ive never felt the need to develop it, it helps me read people and work with tarot and my other witchy stuff and that suits me fine.
Some other wierd stuff thats happened - just before I moved to Croydon I was up there for the weekend doing job interviews etc staying in a hotel. Me and my mate (kazlin on here, she can back this up lol) had gone out for the night and these stupid little chavs had been trying to chat us up, we were not interersted lol! Anyway we left the club about 3am and I then realised I couldnt remember the way back to the hotel. It was walking distance and not very far, I just couldnt remember the way lol. So we started walking in the general direction i thought it was. These lads followed us, about 4/5 of them, and started shouting some quite crude stuff after us and we were getting a bit worried. We are both witches so we protected ourselves mentally and asked for assistance. Just as these lads were REALLY starting to freak us out, we're talking potential attack here, this big black guy with dreads appeared out of nowhere, put his arm around our shoulders as if he knew us, asking if we were ok. We felt instantly safe with him. The lads legged it and this guy walked us back to the hotel, chatting about all his travels around the world, the places he had seen etc. It wasnt until we were at the hotel entrance and he gave us both a hug and said goodbye, that we realised we hadnt even told him where we were trying to get to! We think he was some kind of guardian angel but I guess its open to interpretation
About a year ago I was out with friends in Cardiff and needed about £5 at the end of the night to get the train home. I went to the bar with my last £10 note and bought a round which came to about £9, and as the girl walked to the till with my money I suddenly realised I needed that to get home, and I kind of shouted in my head "give me my tenner back!" She gave me change for a 20 so I got my tenner back!!
Theres so so many of these things that ive experienced but ive just realised ive written a frickin novel here so wont bore you any longer
