MysticMag’s Marko Velimirovic had the opportunity to speak with Madeline Hartman – the Director of Psychic Awakenings. We discussed her beginnings, relationship with customers, as well as differences between different session types.
When did you first know that being a psychic medium was your calling and how did it come about?
I trained to do readings and healings at the Berkeley Psychic Institute when I was twenty-two years old. I was ordained as a spiritual minister there and taught psychic meditation classes at three of their branches around the San Francisco Bay area. It was while I was a student there that I decided that I wanted to have my own psychic school someday.
What is the most popular type of reading that customers are looking for? What are the most common concerns that interest them?
Most of my clients want a general aura reading. Each layer of the aura is related to a specific area of their life. So I provide information about their physical body, emotional body, personal power, heart connection to themselves and others, creative energy, psychic abilities, and spiritual awareness. There is pretty much an even distribution of concerns among those life situations.
Are some types of psychic readings more demanding or difficult than others?
On rare occasions, I encounter clients who hold stereotypical beliefs about psychics, expecting us to possess all-encompassing knowledge about their lives, dictate their actions, and accurately predict their future. However, I make it a point to convey a different perspective. I strive to enlighten individuals that events in their lives are not arbitrary occurrences; rather, they are outcomes shaped by their own beliefs, actions, and the energies they project onto others.
Some of the psychic sessions are still performed in person. What about you? How has your work been affected by the pandemic?
I smoothly transitioned my readings and classes to the Zoom platform. I had Zoom up and running a week before the lockdown measures began last March. Interestingly, conducting virtual readings actually boosted my students’ confidence in their abilities. One of the advantages of offering virtual readings and classes is that we were able to welcome new students from areas outside Seattle, expanding our reach.
In this field, it is often thought that word-of-mouth and personal recommendations are the most important when picking a psychic reader – is this true?
Taking suggestions from others can provide valuable insight into a reader’s capability to assist people. However, it remains crucial to trust your own intuition when determining the best source for a reading.
What do you love most about your profession?
I take great joy knowing that I’ve genuinely assisted thousands of individuals in leading more fulfilling and joyful lives. The psychic tools I share are effective and powerful. I have established a welcoming, all-embracing, and encouraging community . The process of learning to conduct readings for others involves much personal, emotional, and spiritual development. Being able to offer guidance to those on a spiritual journey is truly gratifying.
