Yeah I would do it for fun . Since I have left I have done little things I would have never done as a JW just to prove to myself it was all Superstition . I have attended Church services ,celebrated holidays ,smoked a little ,gambled at a Casino, those kinds of things.... just to see how I personally really felt about them .So far celebrating holiday's is the only thing that has stuck with me . Last summer at a street fair I had my aura (?) read . It was a group of Spiritaulists and they sat and talked with you then gave a reading on what your energy was making them feel . It was fun ...strictly entertainment to me .
Would you have your fortune read?

I wouldn't because it still kinda creeps me out even though I know it's nonsense. Guess i still have a few hangups. lol

Have fun giving absolutely no clues to the reader. Don't nod or smile or give any indication if they are on the right track.

Broken Promises
I've visited "psychics" in the past.
I've never met one that made me go "wow" as far as accuracy goes, which is disappointing.
Just go with an open mind, don't expect too much and have fun!

After leaving the cult, I did a few readings. The vaste majority were simply woeful but I did have one with a creepy dude recommended by a friend. He not only read my future but more importantly my past. He didn't ask (leading) questions, just told me statements of 100% fact. I wasn't asked for affirmation. At the end he told me that I had the power as well but I was afraid of the dead..Too right!! This may sound strange but I intentionally changed my plans that he had read just to prove to myself that I am in control of my life.
Months later, I was told from a reliable source that he was a genuine "devil worshipper". Who knows or cares? Just another experience.
