Last Saturday I participated in a Psychic Faire as one of several readers that went from eleven in the morning until five that afternoon. I am very competent in reading Runes. I shared an out door canopy tent with my good buddy and brother, Robert.
The day started fairly busy and tapered off during the course of the day. The clients who arrived seemed very nice and had some interesting questions about love, career and mortality? Yes, mortality. The mortality question came from an older woman who sat down at my table and appeared very nervous, ridged and a bit walled shut. I explained the system of runes which she appeared to be impatient with my explanation. So, with that I jumped right into her reading. I did what I called a blind reading which I give the option of the client to keep their question to themselves and not tell me the question.
As I was explaining the reading, this woman never looked down at the runes but only looked at me. She looked as if she was trying to keep any type of emotion or hint of giving something away to me. I try not to use their facial expressions during my readings. She on the other hand gave a facial expression that was hard to miss.
When my reading was over I asked this woman if the reading made any sense to her. She said to my suprise that the reading made no sense whatsoever and was so far away from her question. I asked her what her question was so I could maybe see where the confusion was. She told me her question which delt with mortality of a family member and how her family would deal with it. I looked down at the reading. I studied the layout of the runes and it made perfect sense. I explained the reading rune by rune according to her questions. She the left with I hoped a sense of getting a good reading from me.
The woman later visited my good brother Robert who had similar trouble with her. I later heard that other readers were having similar problems reading for this woman. It had gotten so bad that some of the readers had refunded her money back and one reader stopped the reading ten minutes into the reading.
At the end of the day we discussed how this woman appeared to be walled up and was difficult to read for. We were told by another reader that this woman had Brujah energy which is Witch in spanish probably of a Santaria type of craft. The owner of the business also told us that this woman frequently denies anything that is read for her.
It was later on that it hit me about this woman. This woman had a way of sampling the different varieties of reader with spending minimal amount of money. This woman was able to question the reader and then proceed to wall up and enjoy the information the reader was providing. At the end of the reading the woman denied the validity of the reading and got her money back. She then would continue on to another reader. Quite a scam if I say so myself. I"m not saying this woman was a bad person. She just had a way of using a skill she had and used it to her advantage.
All in all I had a blast. I hope to be invited again to read at another faire.
