Craig the Psychic

Many find it it odd, that appointments must be scheduled vs. the more common 24/7 Psychic Service. The reasons being quite simple; 

• I am just one person, not a team of a dozen or so "Readers" that work around the clock.

• As you will see below, I live with several chronic health conditions which limit my ability to work with high demands five or six days a week.
  

• Doctor's Appointments 

As noted in the "About Craig Craig the Psychic" overview I do juggle several chronic health conditions; Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes, Degenerating Bone (spine) Disease, and an array of other conditions that are both, physical as well as psychological-emotionally based. 

I share these facts about myself for several reasons, the  biggest of which is to prove to my fellow survivors, that even when it's tough and seems impossible, we can always take one more step toward defining our own future and claiming our own power.

WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE DIS-EASE TO WIN!

One of the other key reasons I'm up-front about these things is simply to allow perspective clients to understand in advance that "things" sometimes get in the way of "Business as Usual" when it comes to working with me.  While I apologize in advance for the inconveniences this can cause from time to time, I likewise want to assure you that it will not be a thing used to excuse neglect; I will take you of each of you and your needs as I am able, even when I'm vacationing at one of the local hospitals.

Contrary to popular delusion, when one does healing work one will carry at least a remnant of the karma they are attempting to clear from the afflicted. Just as it is nearly impossible to rid cloth diapers or men's under-shorts of expelled mass, so too the essence of who we are retains said fragments and no matter how much cleansing you do, something always remains.

Throughout most of the 1980s I invested a great deal of time doing healing work with what was then seen as a terminal illness -- AIDs -- as well as Cancer patients that were in the latter stages of said condition. It was during this time that the MS first showed physical signs in my life, forcing me to rely on a cane well before seeing 30. 

It may seem "wrong" to us, the fact that our selflessness is repaid by personal strife but take a look at the history of those touched by god. . . the various men and women that endured the Stigmata let alone the hundreds of martyrs who endured unspeakable torments and yet, their faith held strong. It is something we see daily and yet most of us are blind to it, clinging to the myth that superior health and prosperity equate to Spiritual advancement. Yet, the greatest of all the sages in history were persons of poverty. . .

. . .at least when it comes to the standards of man.

UNDERSTAND I do not use these truths as an excuse; any manifested illness or condition stems from the self, it was already there though it was dormant. These sleeping giants however, are awaken as we openly accept the burdens of others -- those we've selflessly given to in the role of healer and thus, taken on that individual's condition. 

This is no curse, simply the Universe showing to us the other areas in which karmic debt still resides within our spiritual condition, and as the Buddha pointed out, if you are here and breathing, you still have karma to work through. 

HEALERS have always paid this price; it can be seen in the withering of the left hand for the majority of us, as well as issues with the back and legs -- those parts of our anatomy that must support the load and carry those "burdens" we chose to accept on the behalf of the less fortunate -- the ill and afflicted.  

It is in knowing the price and still having the resolve to do the work that defines the true spiritual warriors of the world, for we are the ones that have chosen to serve and to do so in humbled ways.  

There are two types of Readings I do, those done via SKYPE video-phone-chat and those I do in person with visitors and residents of the Northampton-Amherst area here in Massachusetts. 

Reports are just that, an overview based on a particular type of Reading, typically Numerology though certain of the "in-Depth" Tarot spreads are likewise done in this manner simply because of the volume of information they contain and the need for clarity. 

There are two basic type of Report; a simple eMail message such as the Monthly Mini subscription; between 1/3 to one full-page of information presented as a general overview of things ahead for the month or, in certain special instances, a look at specific situations a client has an interest or concern in.

The other form of Report is a small book that can range from a few pages to several (between 12 and 150) depending on your particular request.

NOTE: The Majority of our larger Reports are professionally printed & bound via Lulu Press. 

I off a "Psychic Perspective" type talk that can be tailored to any number of given topics. Two topics however, are constant;

• INTUITIONAL PROCESSING
• CONSUMER AWARENESS  

Intuitional Processing is a 20-45 minute discussion about natural human intuition and how, in my mind at least, it seems the foundation or "source" via which the majority of what we perceive as "Psychic Ability" comes from. It is through this talk that I help guests become more aware of their natural Intuition and in that processes, demonstrate scenarios that validate at least a small portion behind Psychic Ability as a reality -- a very natural "everyone has it in them" ability.

Consumer Awareness talks vary and converse to the above, is 100% FREE to any non-profit but most specifically schools and seniors organizations. The reason being quite logical; these are the two aspects of the consumer population most in danger of Psychic Fraud and Cult influence.

"Charlatanism" has been associated with Psychic work for over a century if not longer (seems there's always by a cynic in the wood-pile). Fortunately, the majority of people working as Readers, Healers, etc. are quite sincere, honest, hard-working individuals. Yet, there is that minority, such as you will find in any industry, who seek to abuse the public; especially those that are "ripe for the picking" -- the lonely, depressed and "lost" -- it can be a young person on their own for the first time with the realities of life finely coming into focus, or the 60 something senior who's life mate has past, leaving them alone and seemingly, forgotten. 

This program deals with both of these scenarios as well as what to be aware of when it comes to potentially dangerous Cult situations.  Not all cults gain national notoriety or immense size;  most are typically small, with less than 100 members but are nonetheless, dangerous. My goal is to extend an honest view of the warning signs so no one gets victimized by these unethical predators.

In nearly every major religion throughout world history, you will find warning signs telling folks that communion with the deceased is "Forbidden". At the same time, you will find that certain of these older faiths had a kind of escape clause sewn into the fabric, typically a tradition in which this was allowed but only at certain points of the year. . . such as the Celtic New Year (Samhain) a.k. a. Halloween.  But even then there are some strict guidelines and taboos. 

Some of us are natural channels for spirit; our consciousness and soul energy is vibrating at just the right cycle to pick-up this disembodied transmissions.  While this is an ability that can be developed I personally can't imagine why someone would want to do so; of the few such encounters I've known over the years I can attest to the fact that it's not pleasurable in any way; at least not when your physical body is "taken over" by such an entity. 

On the other hand, I've seen how these very same encounters create miraculous healing in people's lives, freeing them at emotional and psychological levels and giving them reason to want to live again in the here and now.

So, NO I do not make it a practice to commune with the dead.  I do have a couple of services however, that do allow the grief stricken to connect with their loved ones for the sake of establishing closure. I likewise produce historically accurate shows that are quite experiential even though we are not interacting with the real-world relations of guests.

A Word of Warning

Spirit Communication is one of the oldest and still most popular cons known to humankind.  If you feel that you absolutely must seek out a Medium with the intent of speaking to a lost loved one, please do a thorough background check on the Medium and those associated with them.

If you are referring to the possible position of an individual the answer is NO and further more, I would warn you against any such ritual without first addressing the concern via conventional routes; Psychological/ Psychiatric review and Medical Testing. Once you have exhausted these preliminary measures then I would encourage you to go through credible channels for locating a trained and learned Exorcist. While I am not a Catholic I would still suggest that you work with said institution in this matter simply because they have a formal school of study that is devoted to this particular work that cannot be found within the auspices of most Protestant environs. 

I will consider such situations on a case-by-case basis but due to my own physical limitations, such matters are typically deferred to those I feel to be qualified Ghost-Hunters. You will likewise find specialist teams in nearly every State of the U.S. that will be familiar with regional history and urban lore.

Some have heard that I was at one time a professional Magician and this is in fact, true.

In all my years working as a Reader and genuine minister of Metaphysical spiritual living this has never been a stated issue by anyone other than magicians or cynics seeking to create one.  Truth is, most young folk get involved with magic and puppets at some period in their life.  When it comes to those with a penchant towards things Psychic, magic can open many doors of understanding that would otherwise stay closed to a mind filled with questions. Unfortunately, it is a pool of knowledge that's been tainted over the years by the extremes of cynicism and a strong promotion of atheism via which the faith-filled and uncertain, get brutally suppressed. . .

. . . one of the reasons I and others, have pulled away from the art in recent times.

I will point out one important sense of "service" said background allows; having a trained eye and well versed mind that knows the trickery behind fake psychics and would-be cult-makers.  In other words, I'm in the position to help protect consumers while making them aware of the traps and snares such sorts employ.
