Psychics suck

My e-mail inbox is stuffed with crap. It's the bad side of having a shitton of free space. Here is one of the many e-mails I have received from psychics, which have been consistent since I signed up for one as part of a joke in 2004.

"Dear John,

I've written you twice before about a completely unique way to fulfill your fondest wishes and find the everlasting spiritual comfort you deserve. John, I’m concerned I haven't heard back from you yet. Have you received my previous letters? I really don’t want you to miss out on such a simple and rare opportunity to put your wishes into action and your worries to bed. So please read on.

So often in life, John, timing is everything. And it’s particularly important that you act now, in time for the New Moon, a powerful and influential phenomenon for the month of November.

Starting on November 9th, the date of the New Moon, you can experience something miraculous that literally works as you sleep. That’s how powerful it is. As a Taurus, it can help you to wake up to brand new incredible opportunities in your life -- perhaps a windfall of money, life-changing luck, and even a newfound courage and ambition to do your heart’s desire...

JOHN, DON’T MISS OUT ON CHANGING YOUR ENTIRE EXISTENCE -- AS SOON AS NOVEMBER 9TH!

As you know, I am always looking for opportunities for you that will help you to tap into the greatness that I know awaits you. John, I have found something so truly extraordinary that I knew you would want to hear about it immediately!

I know that you already know about the fountain of happiness and good fortune that can be possible with the guidance of your own personal angel spirits. But I have found a way for you to call upon the Archangel Raphael -- he belongs to a very special class of angel who can call on other angels to help you transform your life. I wouldn't have believed it myself, except that I have witnessed these very transformations in friends of mine, and I so want YOU to enjoy this very same abundance, prosperity, and success.

Why November 9th? Because this is the date of the New Moon. You probably know that the highest spiritual energy for success occurs at the New Moon, and this November’s New Moon is an especially powerful and unique time for positive change, luck, and love. And the November moon, also called the Frost Moon, is an even more potent time to have your wishes fulfilled and attract the wealth you deserve.
That's why, John, it's especially important that you pay close attention to what I'm about to say.

LET THE SPIRIT OF THE ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL WORK HIS MAGIC FOR YOU...

Angel spirits can positively shape your life, and are available to everyone all the time, but only if you are able to access them. And, John, I have discovered something that will help you to connect to this angel guidance at this auspicious time of the New Moon -- it's called The Archangel Wish Pillow Invocation Kit. This enchanting Wish Pillow Kit lets you communicate your fondest dreams and desires.

The most amazing thing about the Wish Pillow is that it is so SIMPLE AND EASY TO USE -- all you have to do is go to sleep and let it work for you!

Here's how it works -- your beautiful Wish Pillow is made with 100% silk, with a specially sewn pocket and a picture of the Archangel Raphael on the front. Why silk? Because, John, silk is a rich natural fiber which has long been associated with personal transformation and wealth.


Along with this pillow, the Invocation Kit contains 3 Archangel talismans printed on parchment paper representing the 3 most important Angels of Abundance under Raphael -- Omael, Lelahel, and Leuviah. I will also send you 3 magical prayers to help you to invoke these angels. But I'm getting ahead of myself!

The most important thing to remember is that angels are celestial beings that exist in the spirit realm, beyond our conscious mind, so it's best to invite their power when we are going to sleep -- the conscious logical mind has to retreat from the stress and strain of the day, in order to communicate with the spirit realm. Only then are you truly open and free to receive guidance and knowledge from the angel spirits.

WRITE IT DOWN, SAY IT ALOUD, AND GO TO SLEEP.
JOHN, IT'S THAT SIMPLE!

When you consciously picture something you desire, be it wealth, more joy, or greater success, and when you WRITE IT DOWN AND SAY IT ALOUD, you are tapping into the most powerful means of bringing it into existence -- and getting visible, tangible results.

What you'll do is write your wish down on the parchment talisman and say the prayer DIRECTLY BEFORE YOU GO TO SLEEP. I don't think I can stress enough just how important this is -- as I said, the mind is most receptive to angelic intervention at this time. This is an ancient magical practice that has been proven to work, and I've seen just how powerful this technique has shown itself to be in countless lives.

ON NOVEMBER 9TH, ASK FOR YOUR FONDEST WISHES...
THE ANGELS WILL HEAR YOU AND DELIVER!

To bring greater prosperity into your life, you should use the Wish Pillow to invoke Raphael, the Archangel of Abundance and Fortune. Raphael is capable of generating wealth and miracles, and is associated with fire and the capacity to enjoy life to the fullest. He is the guardian of the Tree of Life, which provides an eternal bounty of fruit.

Raphael, an Archangel, a higher class of angel, will help you to contact the 3 Angels of Abundance -- Omael, Lelahel, and Leuviah -- who watch over 3 different aspects of abundance in your life: prosperity, good fortune, and success. Each Angel has his own special ancient talisman, which is the way you can invoke their spirits directly.

These mystical talismans contain the names of the Angels in both Hebrew and magical "fire letters", so-called for their special power of being visible both to the physical and astral planes of existence. Hebrew is the ancient language which appeared for the first time in the 10 commandments. Add to this the inscription of the fire letters, the alphabet of angels, and you basically have a direct line to the ears of the angels...

The Angel Omael -- Angel of Prosperity

Direct your wish to the Angel Omael when you need blessings of material needs, for he will help to bring you the richness of your innermost desires. This Angel can also provide the strength that you need to banish any negative influences you may have, and bring positive love and fortune in its place.

The Angel Lelahel -- Angel of Good Fortune

When you are in need of luck, the Angel Lelahel is the perfect angel to direct your wish to -- this angel's lucky influence will help you in any endeavor. Lelahel brings harmony and beauty to life, and will help you to experience the true joy of living to the absolute fullest.

The Angel Leuviah -- Angel of Success

The Angel Leuviah is helpful for when you want to turn your dreams into reality, and will help you overcome any obstacles that might stand in your way to achieving stunning successes in all your ventures.

Once you have written each wish, read it aloud, along with the special prayer to the particular angel you are invoking, and then place the wish in the pocket of your Wish Pillow, contemplating it as you fall asleep on the cloud of the angels' beneficent and enchanted good will.
