Extraordinary Lives of Psychics

4 intuitives reveal their past
Source: California Psychics

We asked four of the newest additions to the California Psychics® team to offer insight into what it's like to be born with the gift of prophesy. Then we reveal how they decided to use their inherent gifts to follow their life's path. Their stories run the gamut from funny to hair-raising... insightful and, most of all, inspiring.

What would it be like to be born into a family that has been psychic for generations? Can you imagine being tucked into bed each night as a child, knowing that when the lights went out, a man wearing a hat would be standing at the foot of your bed? Or, finally getting your mom to believe that your long-gone grandfather was keeping you up at night because he had a message for her? These extraordinary stories and more are an eye-opening introduction to the real lives of psychics Brendalynn, Corrine, Fiona and Kit.

New California Psychic Fiona ext. 5178 grew up in family where practicing readings in the family room and dinner table gossip about intuitive relatives, passed and present, were everyday occurrences. By the time the Clairvoyant was in high school, she had begun earning money predicting who would be dating whom. "The kids at school said I was always right - I wasn't, but I was right enough of the time for them to pay me out of their allowance for readings. Our home phone was always ringing off the hook. My mom would proudly say, 'Pick it up, it's another one of your clients,' and my grandmother, a master astrologer, would always smile. I can't tell you how much confidence all of these experiences gave me early on," Fiona recalls.

But receptive families aren't always there when you are the only psychic child in a non-psychic family. Brendalynn ext. 5173 hid her gifts early on because of her religious background. Even as an adult, she worried that she might make "psychic slips" in public. She was self-conscious about other people constantly asking, "how did you know that?" She didn't want to have to answer that question.

And even though Corrine ext. 5194 had a great grandmother who was known for reading tea leaves, her skeptical mother would yell "just go back to sleep! Nobody else is in your bedroom," when the nine year old began getting regular visits from spirits. "Finally, when I gave her messages from my grandfather, including the year he was born and the names of his horses, she began to believe me. Later, when my parents divorced, she'd come to me and I'd tell her about the men she would meet and date, which she thought was great fun."

By the age of four, Kit ext. 5180 could sense what was happening in the lives of people around her, and she believed that the man in the hat who appeared in her room at night was there to protect her. Her grandparents, whom she lived with, disregarded her psychic awakenings as dreams - and yet her grandmother did ask questions about what she saw and felt. When she was 17, Kit was given a set of Tarot cards as a gift, though her family wasn't thrilled with her new interest. As she began to study the Tarot, her psychic senses, she says, increased dramatically.

Psychics Kit, Fiona and Corrine grew into reading professionally quite naturally, and their client lists seemed to grow organically through word-of-mouth. "I never advertised my gifts in any way," Kit remarks - still, she became a full-time professional psychic at the age of 23."The owner of a small metaphysical bookstore called one day and asked if I would work for her, because she had heard about my work. Within months my path took on a life of its own."

"I finally understood that everyone has a special purpose in the universe and that as modern psychics, we provide answers," reveals Fiona about her decision to becoming a professional intuitive. "I found great joy in giving readings. Being a good psychic is about caring for people, about deep understanding, heart knowledge and unraveling mysteries - I truly love what I do."

Corrine, who had an active client list by age 14, was only allowed to work during the summer. "But like any teenager, I wasn't 100 percent sure what I wanted to do." Then Corrine met her husband, very early on. "We connected on a spiritual level at first - reading each other's cards, talking to each other's guides and giving each other tips. I can worry about something, like whether or not a reading was focused enough… and he'll read my mind and say, don't worry, you did fine. One evening, early in their relationship, after doing readings at a local "haunted bar" (they weren't even old enough to drink), they still had a line waiting for them after they closed the place down. "In the car, on the way home that evening, we knew we'd be a happily married couple who both helped people with our psychic abilities."

Only Brendalynn says she had to experience "a dark night of the soul," and it lasted three years. She felt it was necessary to "liberate her mediumistic, psychic self." For 22 years, she had jobs in real estate and business, until she found herself running into mysterious barriers. "I couldn't prosper. I couldn't get my work done. My personal life was falling apart," she openly admits. "I went through an intense and deeply spiritual transformation when I stopped doubting my gifts and caring about what everyone else thought. All of those barriers fell down when I revealed myself and said, this is who I am."

If you are psychic or are born with gifts or talents in any related area, our new psychics encourage you to embrace them - whether you decide to grow your gifts professionally or not. "Never underestimate the power of self-realization!" Fiona exclaims.

Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius

Lessons in selflessness

by Red

Source: California Psychics

On August 5, 2009, the rays from our Leo sun will be blocked from reaching our Aquarius Full Moon, by the Earth and its shadow at 8:55 pm EST... time for another Lunar Eclipse. Unless you happen to be awake in parts of Africa, Europe, or South America, you aren't going to be able to see this shadowy show - but we will all feel the vibes!

Eclipse mythology
It was once believed (and some still believe) that an Eclipse is a sign or a bad omen. It's understandable that if you aren't expecting to see this kind of phenomenon - Lunar or Solar - it can be kind of freaky. The science of astronomy quickly explains that these occurrences are simply about celestial placement and orbital paths, but the art of Astrology delves into the esoteric side of things, clarifying the subtle and not-so-subtle shifts of energy. A Lunar Eclipse, besides being cool to watch, is an opportunity to assess who you are, and to recognize those concepts or areas of life that you may need to change.

Leo sun and Aquarius moon
Leo energy is lavish and bold, generous and kind. Yet Leo's gifts can often be colored by selfishness and drama. Aquarius energy is the most humanitarian in the zodiac - and is also known for its inventive and intellectual vibe. There is an Aquarian duality, though, which can sometimes be displayed through a detached and unemotional essence. Since the Sun is in Leo, the Moon is in Aquarius, and Earth is going to be smack in the middle - most of us are going to be in for an interesting, possibly challenging, emotional ride!

Full moon eclipse
Eclipse energy can start to make itself known to us on an unconscious, sometimes conscious, level as early as a month before the event. So, if you have been feeling stuck, conflicted, overwhelmed, or depressed - these feelings may have been being amplified with the nearing of this Lunar event. Fasten your seatbelt, because all this inner turmoil is about to come to a head. The energy of this Eclipse is going to be an enlightening time, as personal blockages crumble and new ideas are perceived. Our psychic awareness is going to increase, and we will all be a bit more in tune with our emotional (and overly emotional) reactions. While it is a time of tremendous personal transformation, it is also an awakening of sorts - guiding us all to be more aware of the world in which we live.

Selflessness
Being selfless doesn't mean that your purpose is to serve, or that you should give away all that you have - material, emotional or spiritual. It is more of a transition into understanding that all things are connected, and therefore affected by all that you do.

The Leo influence is likely to inspire shopping sprees, makeovers, and replacing worn-out items (and ideas!) with things that are fresh and new. The Aquarian influence will promote lending a helping hand, so you might donate items you may normally just toss. You could find yourself going "greener" than you thought you would. You will be inspired to give back where and how you can - and, if you pay attention, you'll realize that your good deeds are coming back to you.

Because the energy of an Eclipse is likely to flow for about six months, a lot of things can take shape and change. With a little effort and mindful living, we can make our lives, the lives of others, and our world into a better place.

By sign
Aquarius and Leo are going to be affected by this Eclipse more strongly than most, but each of us is likely have some things we need to deal with.

Leos may feel as if they are being tested - or pulled in several directions at once - and will draw on their spiritual sides for additional support. Partnerships formed now have a chance to endure, and Leos who are in love may find themselves making wedding plans.

Virgo will quietly observe, formulating plans. With home life happy and settled, it's all about career plans. There will be changes at work, and turnover of staff can lead to promotions… or possibly a new career direction.

Libra will be rewarded for not giving up, and kudos will be handed out for a job well done. Creative answers will simplify problems at home.

Scorpio may have to face some personal dramas they'd rather not deal with, but once it's out in the open things will improve. The power-play in the career field is about to pay off, and positive recognition is on the way.

Sagittarius will be enjoying a social high, and new friends and family are likely to stop in. If a different vehicle or an excursion of some sort has been on your mind, things are lining up to make "now" the time.

Capricorn will see opportunity everywhere they look. With planning and strategy this can be a very prosperous time. So time to start formulating one of your brilliant, big-picture plans.

Aquarius may realize that it's time to slow down and take fewer risks, while recognizing and releasing the emotional blockages that have been getting in their way. The tides are turning for the better, and Aquarius will share in the wealth.

Pisces may realize they have some growing to do, and will implement a more spiritual approach to help them achieve those goals.

Aries will be finding solutions to the problems that plague them - both in their personal and professional lives. Focus is important now, because scattered energies could create problems at a later date.

Taurus may be feeling a financial pinch, but better economic opportunities are on the way. Try and be mindful of creating a balance - you don't want to be all work, with no time left over to play.

Gemini needs to center and ground, because creative wants and ideas may have their heads in the clouds. Choose to follow-up and follow-through on the things you're starting now, and it will pave the way and make things much easier.

Cancer will let go of some old relationship hurts, and find that when they are fully present, life is filled with love and support.
