Fat is a type of crazy Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 When I was 17 I liked or was open to star signs and up to 25 liked psychics. Brain is a bit soft and you feel open to all ideas and have faith that the only way for you is up and the world is on your side. When things get tough some double down and some distance themselves and then give it a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbra Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Spooky, as the year 2555 approached my Thai girlfriend was hoping for a good luck year,she visited several fortune tellers to see what the year would bring,2 of them said she would die soon,6 months later she was admitted to hospital low oxygen levels and died within 3 days,cervical cancer.

Lacessit Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Thais believe implicitly in fortune tellers and spirits, Christians believe in miracles. There is no such thing as a miracle, only good luck and bad luck. If someone has Stage 4 cancer, and goes into remission, is it a miracle? No. It's a statistical outlier. My Thai GF will not go outside at night alone, because she is scared of evil spirits. However, she will go outside at night with me quite happily. Apparently her logic is, because I don't believe in spirits, they will stay away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortune tellers do make predictions from responses of clients, and physical cues. Dogs can detect various cancers on the basis of odor signatures. It may be some humans are gifted with similar olfactory capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaosLover Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I come from a part of the states where they seriously believe Jesus is telling them to invest in gold ingots with Trump's face on them and that a fetus that looks like a peanut is the same as your Uncle Bob. So a little astrology or whatever? Possibly ethnographically interesting, at minimum, a bit charming. I'm the opposite of the OP, I'm sad that Thailand is slowly losing its Nang Kwaks and Naga shrines. It's much less amulet-drenched than it was 10 years ago. But like all over the world, the young have less use and time for the old gods of their parents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandboxer Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Reminds me of one of America's de-facto presidents when her hubby was already a semi-vegetable while in office - Nancy Reagan. Was big into astrology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that we don't know even 1% of what goes on in the universe... so, who knows. maybe you should give it a try... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picking up cancer which some dogs can do means stronger senses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a shirt was lucky Id keep wearing it. Worked more option than not. Just a mental attitude. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liars and posers are often easy to spot... Nah, I think an astrology girlfriend would be as easy to satisfy as an Episcopalian. Pretend to have "an open mind" about It, and toss out a few "you're such a libra because of X's". I personally like a little of the nutty Stevie Nicks thing in my mix. I mean even possibly current day, 70 year old Stevie. A hot stone massage believer would be about my water level. Aromatherapy is testing it.

Most fortunetellers receive relevant information about their customer before any sitting, they get inside knowledge from neighbors and relatives of their clients. Nothing mystical going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
