am i alone in reading energy?

does any one else read enery from photos? i can feel if some one is sick, or a criminal, if they are not mentlally stable, have money issues, partner issues,or if they have a good relationship with those they love.

i feel like it is invasive in some way to have this ability, so i try to counter ballance it with using the energy for good, as a medical intuitive, but i just wanted to ask if folks here had that type of experiance and have struggled with the invasiveness issue.



No, you are not alone in reading "energy".

CT, I  live by my intuition, for many it is a gift.
 
I have great intuition, and I would say I tend to be right about 90% of the time.
 
Those are Vegas odds, for ME.
 
I will stick to living the way that has worked for me.

One thing I love about this community {lol}is how we are so accepting of other people,
and their RIGHT to view the world and live in it the way they see fit.
It would be so boring if we all thought alike.
Viva la difference!
 
We are all so accepting and well adjusted!

That's interesting, crouchingtigress. I know that it's possible to gain a lot of information from viewing a photograph, but have not heard of taking that intuition a step further. May I ask how long you've been able to do this for and when did you first become aware of it?


i am not sure how long i have beeen able to read energy, i think my earliest was when i was three and told my mom that grandma said good bye....and that night she passed (she was not sick and we were 1000s of miles away)

the last time i did it, was by accident at my freinds house, there was a pic of her ex husband on the table, i asked how long it had been since he passed...she was surprised ...i told her how i could feel him in the room and that he was expressing love for her....i told her he was always near and spoke to her through tingly goose bumps...i told her his passing did not hurt...he also asked me to tell her some private stuff..which i did and i dont remember that part because that is my agreement with my "gift" in that i become a vessle nothing more for delivering messages and dont particpate in them in any way.

the scariest time i did it, was looking right into the face of a murderer....he had killed a lot of people...my heart was so sick...and he needed so much love...i chose to love him...we talked and he told me he was a gun runner soiler for the IRA, he told me how the opposition killed both his perants when he was seven...he watched from under a desk....

i knew he was going to die that year...i did not tell him that....i just loved him...and held him....and you can see how this could be so confusing for me...it is my work as a shaman that i do on this earth...but it also feels strange in many ways to have this un asked for information about people.

Hey Bobby,

Welcome back. I see you have changed your profile. I can't say I blame you. After the huge mess of lies, inconstinencies, and cowardice you left behind on your old one, it was the smart thing to do.


Don't flatter yourself, bunnyboy.

It helped your cause to have Mod 11 threaten anyone who dares to answer such accusations, while totally ignoring collarchat's posted rules regarding said insults.

Now I simply delete her mail on sight, without bothering to read it.

Just had to learn the lay of the land, and see just how tilted it is in favour of some individuals whom Mod 11 seems to favour over others, regardless of rules broken.

Life goes on.


Oh grow up. You made an entire thread about him. If you don't like the mods, find a different sandbox.

Your more than welcome to call me mycopic, but unfortanely in my experiences, it's a rare thing when someone drastically changes the initial opinion I have formed of someone based on their appearance, style, and mannerisms. I tend to be a pretty good judge of character though.

I think this is because people's appearances are external expressions of their internal selves.

Is this the only tool I use? Nope. However, it's a tool that works more than it doesn't work and I have no intentions of abandoning a perfectly good tool just so I can give everybody's "inner beauty" a chance to come out.

I have avoided a lot of situations that would have turned out to be very negative in a variety of different ways based on judgements I had formed primarily from appearance.

When the majority of people who dress like ho's stop turning out to be like ho's after I get to meet them, I will probably stop thinking to myself "Wow! She's probably a ho!" when I see someone dressed like a ho.




I wouldn't actually call you anything regarding this - I have far too much respect for you. But considering the site, I really don't give much credit to the notion of dismissing someone because a person on their friend list looks like a "ho", particularly when everyone's standards of judgement of "honess" are different. For all I know, it was a picture taken on Halloween or some other costume party and they just liked the way their smile looked.

Hell, I used to have a picture up showing a lot cleavage just because it was the only picture of Valyraen and I that looked reasonably decent. Since we were on our way to a BDSM event, it certainly wasn't chaste or modest.


Well, you know what they say about "ho"'s. You can't really define them into a linear definition, but when you meet one....you'll know .

How about we get off that subject and focus on a different picture?

If the picture featured a guy and his buddies sitting around on the couch, playing XBox with Doritto stained fingers and T-shirts that clearly showed off their fashionable beer bellies, and surrounded by a mess of empty potato chip bags and beer bottles....would you still be compelled to email them and find out the content of their characters?

Status: offline 		I have had dozens of "add a friend" requests.  I think I have two friends listed and that is because I know those poeple in a real time sense.  I would be more than happy to add other local lifestylers, regardless of orientation, once I have actually met and interacted with them on a different level, but I would lean more toward the question of who these people are and if they are really friends.  I have never exchanged so much as a single email with many of the friends collectors, and these are not people I recognize from the boards either. 
So for people from the boards that I have emailed privately and spoken to on the phone, you bet I would be willing abd happy and even proud to list them in My circle of friends.  Fo those who just send a request, and I don't them from Adam?  I can't be bothered.
I would judge more on the fact that they are so casual or think it is "cool" to have lots of "friends" on an alternative lifestyle site, than I would on the looks of the pictures.  If they really are friends, then they can tell Me something about them.  If they are not, then how do I know s/he is not just collecting Me as another trophy?
Well, I haven't been able to figure out this friends thing and the overall benefit of having lots of them.  *shrug* 
That is just one opinion!

In this case I would probably come to the conclusion that this person has no idea how to present themselves.  The fact that someone has slovenly friends and hangs out and makes a mess with them wouldn't bother me. (I've been known to sit around playing xbox and eating doritos myself). The fact that the best light they know how to present themselves in is that...well....that would make me pause.  Good point MR.

Considering I am a gamer and wouldn't consider being in a long-term relationship with anyone who wasn't, that wouldn't put me off. I'd just find out if that picture was taken during a gaming spree (something I indulge in maybe a few times a year - in which many beer bottles and plenty of empty chip bags makes a lot of sense) or if such mass consumption was a nightly occurrence.

Edited to add: I may also inquire as to why that particular picture was chosen. As I've already stated, I used to have a picture that showed most of my then considerable breasts because it was literally the only picture I had of Valyraen and I as a couple where neither of us looked hideous. Knowing gamers, I'd say there is a fair chance of it being an inside joke and they care more about seeing that photo and remembering the great headshots when they look at their friend's list than they do outside people judging it.

I don't want to add friends or be added--primarily the latter--because I don't want to be among those I wouldn't choose to, which sounds really shitty and elitist, but...it's like there is a wall of posters and I don't want to pasted up there with Beyonce and Jessica Simpson....

I don't know whether people can accurately do what CT claims, maybe so. I do know that people can claim this sort of power, form dangerously inaccurate impressions, act upon them, and cause pain and problems which require no special powers to see.

Would you like to hear about my special power?

When I hear someone say: "Put your hands on the radio and you'll be healed,"  I can tell, with 50-50 accuracy, whether they are self-deluded or busy trying to delude others for their own gain or amusement.

Well, Mia ... I'm at a loss. If you want to judge other people on their choice of friends by those friends' pictures, and if you aren't going to take the time to get to know these friends, you could be making serious judgemental errors by trusting these biases; but as your sig says, to each his / her own. So ... more power to ye.


What if the pictured featured the subject of the prolfile and his friends....

Posing in a large group hug dressed in white robes with pointed white hoods?

Posing in a white tank top revealing the "Fuk U Bitches" tattoo, a gold necklace that cost more than the trailer he is standing in front of, and baggy jeans falling off his hips with a hand on the exposed butt of a 9mm handgun?

Would you still take the time to find out if they were decent guys?

Edited to Add : I firmly beleive that there are two kinds of people. People who judge by appearance and people who are full of shit. How people represent themselves through their appearance is the first clue we receive into understanding who and what they are as people. People use appearance all the time to make judgements to avoid danger.


People often do use cognitive shortcuts to make judgements, the main reason being we only have enough attention resources for so many situations. There are exceptions to using these shortcuts, like people who have a high need for cognition, people who are mildly sad, and if an outcome depends on the person one is supposed to be evaluating. (And thanks for saying I'm full of shit - very pleasant. That was quite a shortcut.)

Comparing skanks to the KKK is quite a stretch. We can argue semantics and shades of gray if you like although it bores the absolute shit out of me. For the record, I don't judge people based on their general appearance because I have been judged so very often throughout my life. If I were perfect and wonderful, perhaps I wouldn't mind judging someone else based on how he or she looks.

I am rather taken aback by your attack, but invite you to come get to know me first before you again tell me who I am, what I do, or how full of shit I am.

Status: offline 		I wouldn't judge a guy on what female pictures he likes. I don't find most straight men to have much taste in anything. I know my way around a wine list, The Man prefers beer. I'll eat almost anything, he's a strong believer in meat and potatoes. And don't get me started on his taste in clothes, shudder. At least that really awful thin striped tie has been relegated to the back of the closet. Plus he sees nothing wrong in me wearing a petticoat style white skirt in December, thankfully my only white shoes are sandals and he does understand not walking in slush in bare feet.

Of course we might say that therefore he has no taste in women either. I will refrain from drawing that conclusion as it's not flattering to me . But the truth is when it comes to relationships he looks for loving, kind people. just like him.

DG,
I read in another thread about someone soliciting 'pity pussy' is this your version seeking a 'pity friend'? Well it's the least we can do for consideration of your high entertainment factor. Hope you don't mind beth's red feathers and would be willing to flock us.

Edited to add: That last line should read flock WITH us!

Has anyone hear been turned OFF by some of the "friends" some people have
on here?
 


No, I don't judge books by their covers.

On the other hand, I have been put off by what I call a "wall of heads": people who have so many friends that I find it hard to believe they have time for anyone new.

I've also been approached by head hunters: people who don't know me, don't seem to want to get to know me, but want to add my picture as "friend" on their wall.

The first time that happened I figured it was just another way of saying "hello, I like you and want to get to know you". I handle those situations differently now, suggesting we get to know one another first.

I've one friend on my profile but she has been a good friend, and anyone who'd judge me by her profile pic is welcome to do so, as I will not abandon my friend for the sake of image.


Howdy Bob...long time no see....
