has anybody ever got a pyschic reading from either lady kathryn or spiritual guidance on kasambe? If so, did anything they predict come true. I got a reading from both and they said almost the same. I didnt get a reading from lady katryn through kasamba but her personal web site. Other readers from other places said the same, but there's a couple of others that said no. its of course wanting someone to comes back into my life. it hurts/

Readings with Lady Kathryn

#18Consumer Comment

Wed, July 22, 2009

I have had a reading with lady kathryn and i find it... confusing... to a degree.

See i asked about a friend of mine and she said she was seperating, moving geographically or both. the funny thing is that this friend of mine is actually splitting up with her BF (Now she is anyway) but before that she was going to move states with him.
The part about myself was naturally relationship related now, the first time she had given me a reading she mentioned that somewhere in the future (6 months) i will find a new partner and end up having to choose between the 2 of them... I allready know my ex will/would win hands down.

Now the second time i had a reading she mentioned that the girl she foreseen coming into my life in the previous reading has not shown up this time, and that my ex wants me to contact her and she misses me dearly and a whole heap of other stuff...
I also asked about another friend who was supposed to move in with me, she told me straight out to get someone else to move out as his life is in turmoil right now... He rang me the next day saying he lost his job! lol
That was a week ago and since then my mate has got his job back but his GF has lost hers.

So as you can see she is pretty spot on and all but im still worried she may have MY energies crossed with someone else... I will post up on the rest of this in a couple of months to fill you in on my situation and tell you weather she is ACCURATE as hell or not

It isn't the readers fault someone becomes addicted. It is the clients responsibility to manage whatever addiction they might have. However, if the readers were accurate and honest with clients, clients would be able to move on from their sorrow much quicker. I respect wholeheartedly the readers who were honest with me, but there are a lot who weren't. Honesty and accuracy is all clients want so if a person is not skilled enough to provide the service they promote, then they shouldn't be doing it.
And I do live in Australia.

Wombat? Native animal? Clothing store????? Nice try but there isn't an Australian on the web that would have missed the wombat reference in relation to on-line. No way you could have missed it if you really were Australian. You simply added ".com.au" to the end of wombat. You can google it to your heart's content. Your credibility is just disintigrating around you.

I'm also now realizing that there's more than one of you sharing this account. First you're nipping at the heels of anyone who disagrees with you in a demeaning and derogatory manner. Now you're writing in a cognative manner.

It isn't any expert's fault if you are obsessive compulsive. That's the nature of addiction. It needs to be treated. It is neither the expert's place nor expertise to diagnose obsessive/compulsive disorder. Unless an expert has a degree in psychology, psychiatry or specific training to recognize the extent, it would be fraud to do so.

Therefore the best an expert can do is talk to a client, and encourage them to move on or go to counselling. It is neither unethical nor fraud to talk to a client and hear their story and give them advise from a level the client can't get to. Further, if the energy is so messed up because of the obsessive compulsive disorder of the client, how can an expert accurately read that person?

Your expectation is that we're like gods. We see all, hear all and we can heal you. We can't. We can read the situation on a level you can't see, tell you what we see and try to advise you on a course of action.

You're looking for destiny, Lucy. There is no such thing as destiny. One choice changes it all. More specifically, your choice to not move on. Your choice to give in to your addiction and obsession. That's not anyone's fault but your own. It's not anyone's responsibility but your own. And it is unethical to try to blame anyone else for your addiction and your choice to go untreated.

You can blame the heroin dealer all you want, but in the end, it's up to the addict to say no.

You may now go off on a tangent about drug dealing being illegal, but it doesn't alter the fact that unless there are addicts, there can be no dealers. Supply and demand. That's all she wrote.

Just to clarify things for you. I have been a customer of Kasamba for 2 years, and in that time I went through a heartbreaking situation which was exacerbated by certain readers telling me he was coming back and that we would in fact marry. Despite me saying I wanted to move on because it was hurting so much. However, I have since moved on from him and now have a new partner. I might also add, in this time I've had 3 men I've had interest in and each time I enquired about them, I was told I would marry them. Seems to be a standard thing with these people, even if you don't want it. As you can imagine, all these nuptuals have kept me pretty busy.

I can't give you the exact number of readers I've spoken to, the number of predictions which never came true, the amount of absolute crap I've been told by a lot of these scam artists. Which resulted in depression and as another client here said before, I thought I was going mad. But, on the flip side, there are some genuine readers on there who really helped me in the moving on process and predicted the new man in my life. I learned that the genuine ones are very hard to find - needles in the haystack of fakes. Lady Kathryn happens to be a genuinely gifted reader, but she is just one of a few who I discovered there.

I could give you a list of all the fakes I encountered, but the list is quite long and would take a while to prepare.

I am spiritual myself, I have read many times for people, but not on Kasamba. I don't like the environment there. So I understand a lot about it. And I am from Australia. If there are any Australians here, this will tell you I am. Wombat is not only a native animal, but a chain store of ladies clothing.

Something should be done to rid, not only Kasamba, but the entire internet of these people because they are dealing with peoples emotions which has devastating consequences to anyone who is already hurting and vulnerable. The purpose of Spiritualism is to help people, not rip them off and hurt them with lies and false hopes. Psychic addiction is very dangerous to your mental health and your bank balance. It's like most things in life, anything in moderation is okay but when it becomes an addiction which takes over your life, you're in a very precarious situation.

And I care about other people, when I see someone has written here they've been led on by these readings, desperately seeking the truth and they just get fed a load of rubbish, I really feel for them because I've experienced that myself and it hurts like hell. While they sit back and count their money. It's just not right.

Believe who I am or not, that's your choice and at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter because I'm just another person typing away on a website which was created to help people from being ripped off. And a good thing it is too.

You have none,and have never been to the wonderful experts group KasambaUtopia,where people are NOT allowed to exchange client info and many have been kicked out when they tried to. Know what you are talking about before making slanderous lies up why dont you? You people SAY alot,but you sure dont seem to have any evidence when it is asked for. Which removed reader are you by the way,it would be nice to know whom I am addressing.

Kasamba Utopia is nothing but a group for readers only who meet the ethical and moral standards set up in this group,and the reason it gets attacked so much is because these scammers want to discredit it any way they can....since we are opposed to ANY kind of scamming on Kasamba,or anywhere when it gets down to it. Client info is NEVER shared in KU...like I said it is a terminatable offense. Anyone who says otherwise is a liar plain and simple,or an idiot who doesnt know a thing they speak of.Why dont you get on another topic and chase some real scammers,like I do,and help improve the site,instead of whining about this and that and not having any facts straight at all?

Katie, I think you can take Lucy off that list. She just gave Lady Kathryn a positive plug thereby telling those that are really trying to do good things here that she's in a certain camp and has an agenda. Lay odds it's someone who's name has not appeared as being unethical or dishonest.. but bills themselves as such.

I have read some threads here and never belived Lucy wasn't associated with Kasamba. She knows too much to be simply a burned client. That, and her syntax isn't Australian.

All of you need to watch your backs. That's all I"m saying.

It's obvious that someone is trying to take down Robin Bluedragon. I dont' know Robin. I don't have anything against him, so I have no agenda in saying he needs to take a second look at his associations. His enemies are far closer than he thinks. This may not be a situation of keeping your friends close and enemies closer.

Robin/Erik, my advice to you is: If someone is talking dirt to you about someone else, you can be very sure they are talking dirt about you.

It is the gossips that rule and there's always someone that will believe them.

August, your post is spot on and an outstanding suggestion. I would like to see some housecleaning in the psychic category. If it can't be cleaned up, then it should be eliminated. Too few of the psychics are the real deal.

When Miss Cleo's group was shut down, the gypsies and cons simply moved from the phone to the Internet. First to Keen, and now to Kasamba. Their days are numbered. Business is way down, as is customer confidence.

Too many people are being scammed and conned into buying fake spells, getting fake readings, and being fed fake promises. While it is the responsibility of the consumer to know better, there are serious ethical issues at stake when most of the psychics on Keen and Kasamba are simply nothing more than scammers trying to earn a buck at the expense of lonely, needy people.

I can count on one hand the number of ethical readers, and even those who are ethical are not necessarily accurate. But at least they're honest.

Robin aka Erik heads up a group called Kasamba Utopia. That group is comprised of some top-rated readers on Kasamba, and they share transcripts and client information. Many of them have multiple identities on Kasamba.

My advice is to stop getting psychic readings. If you are addicted and cannot stop, then be smart about it. Don't give so much information to the readers. You should never give more than your first name and dob. If they want more, they're fishing for help. Don't give them the story of your situation either.

There's one named Katharine who is really sweet. But she is not a psychic. She spends the time teaching you and having you do certain prayers. If you go back and re-read sessions with her, she asks you more than she tells. And when you type something, she claims she was just about to type the same thing, fooling you into thinking she's connected.

As far as predictions go, give up on those. Most psychics give you a timeframe beyond 30 days, so when it doesn't come true, you can't come back and give them a bad rating.

Listen to Karen, Augusta, Lucy and the others. Their advice is sound. Save your money. Stop calling psychics. Get professional counseling. Stop putting your life on hold.

May the holidays bless everyone with a new year filled with happiness, self-worth, prosperity, health and self-love.

As I mentioned in another thread - many clients can make a difference by doing this:
There is fraudulent advertising and bios on Kas that takes money from clients and then blocks them. Business is going down, and I would ask that clients who feel that "readers" have misrepresented themselves and have not delivered the service that they state they will in their bio to write directly to the CEO of LivePerson with a copy to the Better Business Bureau. Also look up some of the Fortune 500 companies that hire LivePerson and perhaps copy the CEO's of a few of those companies also. Enough people do this and these well known corporations may put some heat on LivePerson so as not to be entangled with a company who allows a shell game to be played on consumers.
Lots of letters will make a difference. Perhaps clean up the "psychic" section or shut it down.

Be careful because they will tell you you will be with "someone" at a particular time and you may find you are actually with someone else at that particular time. This has happened to me many times where they are reading on a person I have asked about, but when the event actually happened, it was a completely different person than who I was enquiring about at the time. Also the events didn't happen exactly the way they saw it and in one particular instance the event happened 12 months after they said it would, same month as predicted, but a year later. So waiting for predictions can be very confusing.

I don't believe in spells, think they're just a way to get more money out you, but I do agree that Lady Kathryn is a lovely, kind and caring reader who was accurate on the current situation.

I have been dealing with Lady Kathryn for over a month now, along with a few others on Kasamba. She did readings and spell work for me at very reasonable prices, considering. My issue too is about mending a relationship. I did see some improvements during the time I've been working with her, but I don't know if they were a result of the work she did or not. A couple of days ago, my situation took a drastic turn for the worse, and no one I've dealt with predicted that; however they all say it's still going to work out. Lady Kathryn is the only one I deal with regularly, and she is a wonderful person and a good friend, but I'm not convinced that any of this really works, although I don't believe that she is trying to scam me.
If anyone has more info that can enlighten me please contact me at (((ROR REDACTED)))

Fri, December 07, 2007

I had one reading from her way back in the past, she was accurate about the current situation, but her prediction didnt happen for long term, so that was not true. But to be honest I dont feel some "expert" can predict what is gonna happen in the future, I have only one person on Kasamba from who I get my readings from from time to time and for me she is the most accurate one on that website, rest of them are all fake and I would never ask for a reading from them, because I know that they say a general line, which can apply one anyone, so please don't waste your time on fake psychics and the most important thing don't rely on predictions! coz nothing is set in stone, things keep changing in life!! asking for advice and guidance is different from hoping for predictions to come true, no I don't do that, coz in the end you will get dissapointed if it doesnt happen.

Hey Bill,
I have tried Lady Kathryn many times, and she has been on point with some things that she has read for me, something I never mentioned to anyone on the site or to her, I have not tried the other one you were speaking of. She nailed a few things on the head, not everything but she is pretty good and just a genuinly caring individual. Just remember dont hold too much hope into what they tell you, keep living your life as you normally would and pray.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, BILL

#18Consumer Comment

Sun, December 02, 2007

I don't know if you are new to this site or have been reading the reports for a while. What I do know is that you should do yourself a couple of really helpful favors. First, take into consideration that you have NO idea if the people that are responding to your posts are Kasamba customers, "Experts", friends/family of "Experts", people an "Expert" asked to post a report/reply or someone just looking to give advice. Take all that into consideration before you try an "Expert" they recommend or don't. If you are looking for resolution, satisfaction or assistance on this site - do yourself another favor and READ, really read all the posts from the past few months.

Second, the biggest favor you can do for yourself is NOT get readings on the Kasamba website. (BEFORE I GET THE REBUTTAL SLAMS.... LET ME FINISH) Just like this site, you have NO idea who is on the other end of the computer. Is it an "Expert" with multiple "names", is it a scam artist - you will never know - will you (by the Grace of God) choose a reputable "Expert" that truly has the gift to give you a "reading" that is honest and the information being appropriate and true - HOW CAN YOU KNOW FOR SURE?

Remember Kasamba.com is a for profit business - it is not a kind and gracious place you can go for support. It is very expensive - whether the "Expert" charges $2.99 or $8.99 a minute....do yourself a favor and don't take the chance and spend money and even worse....take what the "Expert" tells you to heart when you are already "hurting" from your loss. Clearly, you are anxious to know what the future holds in regard to the person that you want to "come back" to you - but, you must consider that the information you will be given by the "Expert" has NO guarantee. If you read the posts on this site you will see that almost EVERYONE wrote "predictions never came true".

Don't put yourself in a position to believe what someone who is making a living off of you says - realize that logically - if you are told good news and given hope - chances are you will go back for more. Whenever you feel the "urge" or need to contact an "Expert" to get an idea of what the future holds or what the person who is out of your life now is "thinking" - READ THE POSTS ON THIS SITE - and that should give you the will to stop yourself for putting yourself in potentially more pain. When what they tell turns out to not be the truth you will feel much worse than you did prior to contacting them and you will feel betrayed.

Human beings can get enough of all of that dynamic for FREE. Just find a way to stop yourself from subjecting yourself to more anguish and reading what other customers wrote will do that for you. You will spend hours and hours reading to find the rare post that states the customer was "thrilled" with their Kasamba experience. Realize the entire Kasamba concept is to make a ton of money for both themselves and the "Experts" registered on the site by offering comfort to those in pain. Find another way to console yourself. Also realize that even if an "Expert" "predicts" this person will come back into your life and that "prediction" is 100% true....it's going to happen anyway - if it doesn't - and you wait with anticipation - you'll be so deeply disappointed.

Find another way to relieve your anxiety and need to know. Do not subject yourself to people that are comitted to helping you for profit without the viable and verifiable credentials to do so. No good can come from people who proceed to manipulate others for financial gain. The site claims "for entertainment purposes only". Well, when you are suffering from a broken heart or worse, being mislead is NOT "entertaining". So realize that, accept it, save your money and STAY AWAY. EVERYBODY THAT POSTED HERE CAN'T BE WRONG!!

I had a reading with Lady Kathryn a long time ago and her reading turned out to be accurate. Never used the other reader.
But also be aware, their interpretation of events is not necessarily how they will actually play out, it is not as clear cut as that. Some things happen quite differently to the way you might think.
Good luck.

Hello Bill - I understand where you are coming from - however I have never tried the first reader you mentioned but do know one who has and if I recall correctly it did not pan out. The second reader I tried quite awhile back - the details never manifested at all in any way so I never went back.

It is difficult to know how the energy is going when you have received opposite answers - and since these answers may be the result of the inaccuracy of the readers, or their connections with you being faulty you really can't know which reading is the result of authentic clairvoyance. I truly do not know why they give definitive answers and details when perhaps they are not skilled to do so.

Anyway - as painful as it is - stay away from readings for now and focus on your healing so that if the ex comes back - you will be able to reconnect in a better way....why spend more when you have both answers? Wait and see....
