There is a fine line between the lunatic and the magician. Balance, control ... many people have gifts but don't know how to use them. For one, if a vampire tells me to kill my wife, I'm simply not going to listen. Just because someone or something can get into your head and place a thought doesn't mean you must follow it. "Taking too much advice from the left shoulder ..." Balance, control.

I pretty much don't get readings of any sort from strangers. Even if they are the real deal (i.e. not a lunatic), I don't want them knowing that much about me. The only time we "subcontracted" a psychic was for our cats. We used a pet psychic from California (we live on the east coast). She was excellent.

I also have a friend that is so good she actually just took a job on a psychic hotline (laughs alowed). She says that most of her "clients" simply call to talk things through and she doesn't often really need to use her skills. BUT ... she is an incredible medium. Turns it on, turns it off, control, balance.

And yes, I would reccomend her to anyone seeking a reading for something important. I have no idea what those places charge though.

Also, I know some of the new agers you speak of ... aliens+atlantis+pyramids yada yada. Although I am far from sold, I have heard logical arguments that make me say Hmmm. There is old school occult basis for some of this stuff ... rays, planets, etc. Though the people yopu speak to may in fact be quite insane, what they have to say may not be totally off base. The trick is to sort the interpretation from the experience ... very difficult.

ok, I'm done.

Luna Flora-- For lack of a single word, I think your understanding can take the place of a short well chosen phrase. I liked the way you explained it just fine.

BTW, isn't it interesting how there are words for some things and none for others depending on the language? Like in French there is a term for when you find something sorta ugly yet cute or pretty at the same time. We totally don't have that in English. Also there are lots of words in Asian languages that describe many states of emotional being that we don't have. I once heard a really good example of this, but I have forgotten it now.

Hey 23-- thanx for the image... I totally did not know Dale Chihuly did paintings. DUH, how else is he gonna come up with that stuff. I love his work. If his exhibit comes to a town near you I suggest seeing it.

here's my pic of a Chihuly
