Someone recently left a comment and I deleted it along with a bunch of spam - sorry, whoever you were!

The person said that I did a reading for them some time ago and a number of things I had predicted had occurred, but two things hadn’t - specifically a relationship and a change in her work situation. She asked why these things hadn’t come to pass yet when I had been right about other things.

I thought about this and my absolutely honest answer is “I don’t know.”

Tarot shows us what is most likely to happen based on your thoughts and actions at the time of the reading, but if you change your mind or change your actions, you change your future.

I also believe that when the cards show that a relationship or other change is on it’s way, they are letting you know that there is no external barrier. The only thing that might stop you, is you.

For those of you who have read The Secret or books like it, you be familiar with the theory that our thoughts attract and create our reality. So if I am constantly thinking that all men are bastards, or that I will never meet anyone, the magnetic force of my thoughs will attract bastards or no one. Make sense?

Same with the job situation. If I turn up to work every day thinking ‘I hate this job’, I am placing an order with the Universe for “another horrible day work, please.” (Do you want fries with that?)

My best guess as to why tarot readings or psychic readings don’t always ‘come true’ is that our thoughts and actions aren’t always in accord with our desires. Of course, there is always room for error - no one is perfect and even the best opera singer will sometimes hit a bad note.

One things readers need to be aware of is picking up the thoughts and wishes fo the querant telepathically and relaying these back to them as ‘predictions’. This usually happens unconsciously but some unscrupulous psychics will use this technique to feed people what they want to hear. The best way to prevent it is to not sit directly opposite your querant, or to have a the appropriate energetic boundaries in place.

So Mystery Girl, my answer to your question is that the cards were most likely showing that there is no external barrier to you achieving what you want, so you need to remove the internal barriers, like negative thinking or disbelief.

Hope that helps!
