Fortuneteller

January 8, 2007

An officemate dragged me to go see a fortuneteller last Friday.  I’ve always been open about mediums, psychics, Tony Perez, Jaime Licauco and other stuffs related to the paranormal/occult. But I never had in my life got my fortune read, thru card, palm reading, bolang crystal or whatever medium coz I know there are a lot of fakes out there. This fortuneteller however is a family friend of my officemate and she already attested about the credibility of the said fortuneteller. Anyways, there were 3 of us and we didn’t go individually but instead got in together witnessed each others fortunetelling. The fortuneteller was male and he used Playing cards instead of his usual Tarot cards coz he lost it in a flood. I was the last one to be read. Even before my turn he kept on dropping hints about me and said that among us three I have a dark side <insert evil laugh>. He said that I’m not who I seem to be. I am supergirl LOLS I tried to analyze what could be his basis for that…maybe coz I wore black that day? When it was my turn he instructed me to write my name and my bday and my suking tindahan  introduce myself to the card and ask it my questions silently. And so I did, after shuffling the cards he said “Go forth and multiply”  and chuckled and said that my question wasn’t addition but multiplication…errr I thought to myself… 7X7? He also said that based on my name I have a strong personality and joker daw. Maybe coz I can’t stifle my laughter during the entire ordeal? He also said that I have a dual personality and that I still am not sure who I really am and should contemplate on this. Yes I’m still torn between the call to be a dancer or a singer. He also said that in relationships I can commit but usually I’m the one being left out on the blue. Ouch. He also said that my cards turned out 4 aces so this is a lucky year for me and whatever I ask, his answer would be yes. That’s about all I can remember aside from the fact that I was deeply amused and promised myself that I would never go see a fortuneteller again. Also while waiting for my turn I got to thinking…I’m 27 in 2007 *gasps* isn’t that amazing? And I realized I was also 26 last 2006 and 25 last 2005 and so on and so forth. Then my common sense told me that so are 1 billion others born on 1979 and 1980, so it’s not really that amazing*smacks forehead*

There might be forces outside our control that influences our destiny but I still believe that the final outcome lies in our hands. As Henley would put it“I am the master of my fate I am the captain of my soul.”- Invictus
