I've read up a LOT on Spirituality, mainly to help myself understand why I've been given the gifts I have been given and how to use them. I think I speak for all the true psychics out there when I say that although tarot cards, tea leaves, and horoscopes are fun and entertaining, true psychics need no tools or prior knowledge to obtain information. We do what we do and know what we know to serve our inner calling, for the Highest Good. It's not about being right or wrong, and as my Aunt always says, "it is what it is."
I agree, too. But sometimes there are people, who feel/have such a gift, but still need some help/support up to some point to set this gifts totally free. Cards (and so on) are very helpful then for that time. I hope my English is ok (I`m from Germany). Thanks.
I agree with HTW that people often times find it hard to be a "receiver" and have no control of what happens/information they receive. So they manufacture a way to "be in control".
