Questions about how I work as a Psychic Medium
How did you get started as a psychic medium?
I have had my gifts since I was young, and you can read my story about how my abilities have grown over on my About Donna Marie page. I also share some of the defining moments in my journey that have brought me to where I am today.
What’s the difference between a psychic and a medium?
A medium is able to connect with the energy of those who have passed and communicate with you their messages and guidance. Not all psychics perform mediumship. Psychics deal mostly with your own energy, from which they can see your future path and offer guidance to help you. I am an Intuitive Psychic Medium, which means I do both. I can share messages from your loved ones on the other side, and I can share Divine guidance in response to any of your questions. Most of my readings are a blend of the two.
How do your psychic readings work?
Psychic readings take different forms depending upon the client and the type of reading being given. Sometimes, you ask specific questions that you desire answers to, and I then share with you the information and insights that I receive from Spirit regarding those questions. Other times, I am connecting you with the spirit of loved one(s) who have passed and sharing what I receive with you. In all readings, I am simply the messenger or the connection with the Divine.
How accurate are you?
I’m not ashamed to tell you that I am constantly amazed and humbled by the feedback I get from clients after readings. I am honored and grateful that I am able to help people connect with their loved one’s who have passed, as well as those wishing to receive spiritual guidance about their life.
Since all of my messages and insights are shared directly from Spirit, I don’t really focus on accuracy. Every reading I do I always ask for messages for only the best and highest good of all involved, and I trust that spirit will deliver those messages to you as clearly as possible. Please read the kind words that some of my clients have written to me on my testimonial page.
Questions about the Psychic Readings I do
Do I have to be present and in person with you in order for you to give me a psychic reading?
Not at all, the connection with spirit is the exactly the same no matter which type of reading you choose, in person, by phone, or by email, I am able to connect with your energy and share with you the insights and messages I receive from Spirit.
Phone readings are great because my clients feel more connected and are able to ask questions as the reading is in progress! I am able to connect with you just as if you were sitting next to me.
With email readings all I need is your birth date and I can connect with your energy in the same way and I share with you all I receive when I ask Spirit for the answers you are seeking.
I don’t live close enough to you to get an in person reading, so should I get a phone reading or an email reading?
That depends upon what you want to get out of your reading. Phone readings are your best choice if you want a personal interaction with me. Phone readings also allow you to ask questions and go deeper into areas that you are concerned about – or to explore other areas that may come up. You can schedule your own phone reading with me by using my Online Phone Reading Scheduling Page. Start by reading the details here.
Email readings are a good option if you have specific questions that you desire answers to and you don’t need those answers right away. Most email readings are answered within 2-4 days – which isn’t long, but isn’t as quick as scheduling a phone reading. You can order email readings in one question, three question, or ten question formats and you can order them at any time of the day or night – even at 2 am. Because we are not interacting live, the key to getting the most from an email reading is asking clear, concise questions that allow for clear answers from Spirit.
No matter which type of reading you choose, I want you to know that I give every reading 100%, and I strive to share the messages I receive with compassion and empathy.
Why do you need my birth date for an email reading?
Having your birth date allows me to connect more clearly with your energy. As you can tell from some of the awesome testimonials clients have given me, my email readings are every bit as accurate and meaningful as any of my other readings. Distance has no affect on our connection either. I am honored to have served clients from every state in the U.S., and in more than 30 countries all around the world.
What if I don’t like my reading?
I am truly sorry if there is something about your reading that you don’t like. I understand. I have been there myself. In a similar way, sometimes, when I go to my doctor, I don’t necessarily like the diagnosis he gives me. I may not like his guidance or advice, but have received his service.
I always share with you exactly what I receive. When I do a reading I always share the messages I receive, as I receive them and do not change them in anyway – even if I feel you are desiring a different message. I feel the messages I receive are meant for you and are not for me to edit to what I feel you are hoping to hear.
Questions about Psychic Ability in general
Can you tell me when I’ll meet my soul mate?
All I can do is ask Spirit and convey the answer to you, but yes, I often get that kind of information from Spirit. I may see someone coming into your life, or I may see someone already in your life taking a different role. Much that happens in your future depends upon you. Spirit can guide you, but it is up to you to be open to receiving your soul mate into your life.
Can you make someone fall in love with me?
No.
Can you tell me the winning lottery numbers?
No. I am able to connect with the life energy of people – either living or passed – and it is that energy that Spirit embodies and manifests through. Lottery drawings and the such are random events and don’t contain that life energy so there is nothing for me to ‘read’. Trust me, I have met a number of truly gifted psychics over the years and none of them have won the lottery either. I do however, believe that people can ask for, and receive, financial miracles and that those miracles can show up in any form – including winning the lottery.
Can you read my mind?
I knew you were going to ask that. Just kidding. No, I can’t read your mind. I can, like everyone, sense your energy. Because my gifts are a little stronger, I am able to sense some things more clearly. When you ask me to, I can connect with your energy and then share with you the insights and guidance that I receive from Spirit. If you have specific concerns or questions I can ask Spirit for guidance about those specific topics.
Are you able to predict events in my life?
Through Spirit, I am able to share with you certain things that are on your path. Sometimes the coming event feels certain, sometimes it feels more like it depends upon you taking certain actions or doing things in a different way.
One thing to remember is that every reading is merely a snapshot of your life’s path as it stands right now at this time. If you keep doing what you are doing you will create this particular future. At any given moment though, you can choose to exercise what I call “God’s Free Will” and make decisions or take actions that change your future path.
Is my future set in stone?
Absolutely not! I believe that God gave us free will, and that you can exercise God’s free will to make different choices that affect the direction of your life. Since I ask for messages for only the best and highest good, the guidance I share from Spirit will be true for you on a deep level. But, even when guided by Spirit, you can still choose to go your own way.
Will you tell me when I am going to die?
No, sorry. I only work in the light, and I choose not to do ‘doom, gloom or death’ type of readings. I find when I stay in the light darkness does not come in. I find that I am much happier telling you how to make the most of the life you are living right now!
Besides, if I told you that you were going to die tomorrow, or next week, or next month… would you treat people differently? Would your priorities change? Would you be more loving? More forgiving? More compassionate? Well, let’s pretend that is exactly what Spirit is telling you and start living your life that way right now!
