Some of you may remember that last year I posted regarding a close friend at my work who was becoming obsessed with contacting her late father through clairvoyancy. This is still going strong and I would say intensifying. The lady she uses once worked at the same place as us, before my time, but obviously knows a fair few of us in our circle of friends & colleagues, so that did make me feel somewhat sceptical. I always said I wouldn't go to one of her "evenings" but a few months back, I was persuaded and despite still coming away as sceptical had a great fun night. She'd laid on a beautiful buffet, wine was in abundance, and the Clairvoyant lady was really pleasant. Part of the evening involved us placing photographs of our loved ones onto the table (without her seeing who'd placed what photograph). She was able to tell me that my late mother no longer had trouble with her legs and was at peace etc, and how I was fond of pets and mentioned a particular animal that had passed fairly recently, and for others said things that they seemed she couldn't possibly have known.
To cut a long story short (well I'll try, you know me!) She had another one of her evenings this week and because of the passing of my ex, I jumped at the chance. I excitedly placed my photograph, the one I posted on here onto the table. The clairvoyant lady arrived shortly after, and said I hope you don't mind but I've brought a friend along she's also clairvoyant, so we'll be hosting this evening together. I didn't think much of it until the evening became under way. It started to become quite obvious that all the names that the usual lady would by now most definitely know off by heart were being uttered by the new lady - because if the usual one said looked at my friend and said "I'm getting a Stanley through" (friend's dad) We'd all think, yeah, you should know his name by now! The other observation was that they were able to "do" more than one person simultaneously, thus ensuring that the show doesn't "over run" - historically my friend has quite a lot of people in attendance - kerching! Oh, and I didn't mention that clairvoyant lady is a facebook friend to most of those in attendance, and I'd be stupid to think that she doesn't glean what information she can from that..Ie who'll be in attendance for starters.
From all of the photos mine was pretty much not looked, I mean they picked it up and glanced at it scanned the room and placed it back onto the table. As the evening was drawing to a close, she said does anyone have any questions? pretty much everybody did, however, I asked directly whether they got anything from my picture. Yes she said, obviously recognising now that the female in the picture was me, she said some spirits are very private, this one is very private and wants to talk to you on your own, book a "one to one" with me darling..."What was his name darling?" I said "That would be telling!" Well I'm getting the letter A...No, I said, it seemed obvious she was trying to wrap up, So I said try "D" - She came back with well I was strongly getting the name Alex, or David!!! BINGO!!!!! She asked me whether the top half of his body was what caused his passing, at this stage I'd given up, so said yes I suppose the substances he abused his body with went into his mouth. They were able to tell me that he was my brother and that he was 27 or 34 when he passed and he had family probs mainly due to his father when growing up, and rivalry with a "sister figure" when he was growing up, How he wished to become a lawyer (er no, he worked in the building trade, and loved it!) It is true that he did have issues with his dad growing up, other than that, they couldn't have been more wrong. Happily I was not upset that he didn't "come through" as I feel I've been proved right to be sceptical!!!!
I came away thinking that the real reason my photo wasn't picked out was this - Two young people, not immediately obvious who they are, therefore not immediately obvious which one had passed, not in an intimate pose, so relationship between them not obvious either = Not a lot to go on apart from wild guesswork and clutching at straws. Oh well, a fun night anyway, good food and good company!!!
