The Weirdest Things That Have Ever Happened During a Reading.
Real stories from behind the veil at Phoenix Medusa
There are sessions that are soft, gentle, and quietly affirming.
And then… there are the ones that make me (and my clients) sit up and say, “Wait — what just happened?”
People sometimes assume readings are just cards and guesses. But if you’ve ever had a proper session — where energy is honored and spirit is present — you’ll know the moments I’m about to talk about aren’t accidents.
They’re revelations.
Let me take you behind the scenes — not for drama, but to show you the invisible threads Spirit sometimes weaves right before our eyes.
The Accident That Wasn’t
This one didn’t even happen during a reading — it was just a moment. A gut feeling. My friend was about to leave my house after hanging out. Nothing unusual. But the moment the door closed behind them, I had this awful, sinking feeling. The kind that doesn’t go away.
Before I could even text them, there was a knock on the door again — they had forgotten their car keys. I told them to sit down for a bit before leaving again. “Just wait, I don’t feel good about this.” They looked at me and said, “You know what? I feel the same.”
Five minutes passed. They left. I said a quiet prayer.
Fifteen minutes later, my phone buzzed. A string of messages. The first few were full of gibberish — I thought my friend was having a stroke. But then a clearer message came through: they had almost gotten into a fatal accident. The other driver didn’t make it. If they hadn’t left their keys — if they had left just a few minutes earlier — they would’ve been in that exact spot.
I don’t say this to sound mystical. I say it because your gut knows things. And yes — sometimes the superstitions are real. Tripping before you leave the house. Forgetting something. The spirits talk. We just forget how to listen.
The Words I Shouldn’t Say (But Did)
Anyone who knows me knows this: mulut masin. My words manifest — so I’m extra careful. But sometimes, the words just slip out before I can stop them.
Once, I randomly asked someone I was close to, “Are you cheating on your husband?” I didn’t have proof. I wasn’t even doing a reading. It just came out. The person looked at me like I had slapped them. A few months later? It turned out to be true.
Another time, I told a client during a reading to post something oddly specific on Instagram — something I didn’t even understand. The next week, they found out the person they were trying to attract had just been to a training on that exact thing. Spirit knows what it’s doing, even when I don’t.
When Spirits Show Up Uninvited
Yes — spirits come through even when I don’t “call” them. Sometimes it’s beautiful. Sometimes it’s not.
For the low vibrational ones? I open the door and tell them to leave. If they linger, I cleanse like my life depends on it — because sometimes, it really does.
But the higher beings? Their presence feels… warm. Safe. Yesterday, a client’s guides showed up at my studio beforethe client arrived. I felt them before I even started setting up. My ear started ringing — that’s always the sign they’re ready to talk. “Oh Hi!” I said out loud. And they just waited there, patient and kind, until it was time.
I know how weird this sounds. But weird is my normal.
When the Client Comes Back Months Later… and Says “You Were Right”
This one hurts, because it involved heartbreak.
A client once got really upset when I mentioned that there might be someone else interfering in her relationship. She didn’t believe it — and I respected that. My job isn’t to force anyone to accept what they’re not ready for. So I let it go.
Months passed. Almost a year later, she came back — this time for an in-person session. “You were right,” she said, holding back tears. “He was planning a wedding with someone else.”
Sometimes, I wish the cards were wrong. But they rarely are.
When Even I Need to Pause
There are readings where the energy comes through so clearly, so loudly, that even I need to stop and breathe. It’s not always gentle. Spirit doesn’t always coddle us. I’ve had my own guides tell me, “What did you expect?” and then go silent when I ignored their messages. They love us, yes — but they don’t play.
Sometimes during sessions, if you see me stutter or go quiet? That’s not confusion. That’s me trying to translate a wave of insight that just came through too fast for my brain..
This work isn’t just about getting it right. It’s about building trust. Letting go. Learning to listen to your gut, your guides, and what’s unspoken.
What All This Taught Me
Guides, guardians, and ancestors… they don’t miss. They never miss.
If there’s one message I want to share through these stories, it’s this: don’t underestimate the relationship you have with your Spirit team. Whether you know it or not, they are protecting you, guiding you, warning you. Pushing you gently (or not so gently) when it’s time to act.
And your ancestors? They are fierce protectors especially if you honor them. They chose you for a reason. You are the continuation of their work.
You don’t need to book a reading to access this wisdom. Learn to trust your gut. Pay attention to the dreams. Light the candle. Ask for a sign.
But if you ever need clarity, you know where to find me.
This altar — Phoenix Medusa — is open. And if you’ve made it here, this altar is yours too.
