Okay
a few months ago I had a very mediocre psychic reading with a woman who basically gave me her opinion more than psychic insight. She also told me towards the end that I should go to her every week and that she'd lift a curse for a fee. I saw her reviews on yelp yesterday and decided to chime in--I was just honest in the review and said it was mediocre and gave a couple examples of this. My yelp review doesn't even show my full name and now she's calling me up (i guess she saved my number???) and leaving messages. What do i do--I really don't wanna talk to her, and will she do something crazy like put a curse on me if I don't respond?

Send her to me - I'd LOVE to talk to her! Tell her I'm your Spiritual Representative.

Laurenaus · 07-06-2010, 04:51 PM

lol what should i do?

Angela · 07-06-2010, 05:34 PM

If I were in your shoes, I'd transform it. Shift your perspective so that you can see where expansion is available for you in the situation, and choose what you're willing to choose for yourself.

I'd start by examining what my beliefs about the situation are:

What will happen if I talk to her?

What will happen if I don't talk to her?

What won't happen if I talk to her?

What won't happen if I don't talk to her?

.... and then boldly examining those beliefs for truth.

Laurenaus · 07-06-2010, 06:59 PM

thank you, any other opinions?

kitai · 07-06-2010, 07:24 PM

You could always ask her why she keeps hasseling you and ask her to stop and if not report her, I believe that psyhics now fall under the trade protection act or whatever it is they call it.

ssandra · 07-06-2010, 07:28 PM

She cannot put a curse on you. That's one. That stuff only works if you give permission for it, and her being mediocre and all, I doubt she has the skill.

I'd just answer her once (if only to satisfy the curiosity of me and the rest of the people here who now want to know what is going on

) and for the rest just ignore here...

Carl Carlson IV · 07-06-2010, 07:32 PM

Why be afraid to answer the phone? Just answer and say you're not interested in further readings and wish her the best.

Erin Pavlina · 07-06-2010, 10:15 PM

Obviusly she is a scam artist and not truly psychic at least not ethically psychic. Read this article one what she did to you:

Avoid This Common Psychic Scam

I would answer the phone and threaten to report her to the better business bureau or potentially bring her up on harrassment charges.

No, she can't/won't curse you. As Erin mentioned, the whole "lifting curses gig" is a common psychic scam artist routine.

Don't respond to her. Delete her messages. She will eventually stop bothering you when she realizes no reaction is being offered.

rei · 07-07-2010, 01:39 AM

To echo others, no she cannot put a curse on you. She sounds like she's working from fear and intimidation. You can answer next time she calls and tell her you view it that way (which may shock her into leaving you alone), or just not bother responding. Also of course you could try the BBB option Erin mentioned.

I don't think it's ethical to work as a psychic from a power-over intention. You're the one who has power over the shape and course of your life - not her. Even with her "mediocre" abilities. Psychics who are secure in their gifts and who make an ethical, positive contribution aren't likely to approach things in such a scammy, fear-based way.
