Step one was checking my horoscope.
"You greet the world energized, and you are ready to take on the world!"
So far so good... I woke up half hour before my alarm went off, and was wide awake and ready to go.
"Your confidence is likely at an all-time high because of the events of the last few days."
Lucky guess... my confidence is rarely lacking.
"You have every reason to be proud of all that you have accomplished, especially at work."
Damn straight! I finally heard back from the company that I'm dying to work for, and after months of hard work, I've been accepted into training for the job of my dreams!
"But your love life could benefit from the same level of commitment. Why not be proactive about the situation?"
Well, it has been months since my last date, so I did bump the flirting up a few notches as I went about my day. That's about as proactive as I could get.
Checking my horoscope is fine and dandy, but it wasn't enough for me. Step two was visiting a psychic. I went to see a woman that came highly recommended by members of my family. I opted for a crystal ball reading, a palm reading, and an extended tarot card reading.
As soon as I sat down, she noted that I was a very guarded person that found it hard to express emotions. Lucky guess. She brought out the crystal ball (I honestly thought that was just something from cartoons!) and went about her business. She told me that she saw that I am a very logical person, smart, and a thinker, but with a creative side. My career would be in a technical field (which it is), but it wouldn't be my only career. I will also be a pilot in the future. (I have thought about being a pilot). She told me that I'm an old soul, and in previous incarnations I was somehow connected to Germany, and also England and Ireland. I will be wealthy in the future, and will have enough money to retire in my 40's (which is a personal goal of mine).
She then moved to a combination of the crystal ball and palm readings. She said that I will have 4 kids, twin boys and two girls, and I will have the twins first, at age 33. She told me the exact same thing when I saw her six months ago. She said that the crystal ball showed that the next serious relationship that I get into will be with the man I marry. My palm showed that my third serious relationship will be with my husband... I've been in two already, a fact I did not share with her. I'm also going to meet him in the near future. She said that he's going to be tall (naturally, since I'm not a fan of short men), similar in personality to me, and a man in uniform (does a hockey uniform count? Please let it count!)... he's also going to have dark hair. I like this future husband of mine already!
It was then time for the tarot cards. They conveniently backed up everything she had already said, but she expanded on things. She told me that I would be moving to Toronto or Montreal in the future because of my husband. She mentioned that I have a strong connection to Europe, and she sensed a vacation in my immediate future, one around water. Which is either really freaky or an insanely lucky guess, because I leave for a European cruise in two weeks. She wrapped the session up by telling me to listen to my intuition, and to pay attention to my dreams, because I have two angels (one that's a funny person, one that was a fantastic cook that loved cooking for large groups) that are trying to tell me something. She also said that I should try and get out more and meet new people. Good advice regardless of whether or not she's psychic.
Of course she didn't get everything right. She saw knee surgery for my father in the next year... he's having surgery, but on his shoulder... I'm the one with the knee problems. She said that I worried too much, which I don't think is accurate, especially when I compare myself to other people I know.
I still don't believe in psychics and horoscopes after today; I doubt I ever will, but I do see the value in them. Trusting a psychic to help you with a major life decision probably isn't the smartest idea, but what's so wrong with walking around believing that I'm going to live to be 90, have a happy marriage with a tall man, and generally be successful in everything I do? It's better than walking around being miserable. I firmly believe that it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. And although I don't believe in guardian angels, the description she gave sounds suspiciously like my deceased grandparents, and I like the idea that they're watching over me and guiding me, even if deep down I don't really believe it. Overall, I think today was a big success for me!
