Ok so it’s just over a month since my first visits to fortune tellers, and part of the deal was to track the success or otherwise of what I was told.
In a funny way, my life has already changed somewhat since that initial trip. I had read a lot about how to interpret readings, but was not prepared for the surreality of the whole event, or the clarity and consistency of the messages I would be passed.
I feel like I have a little more direction, I definitely feel more settled about certain things. Like I wrote recently, things are coming together nicely. The past was yours but the future’s mine etc.
Away from the fortune tellers, I have also experienced some evidence of more synchronicity – coincidences in my friendship circles, for example, passport photograph faces identified, lottery numbers correctly dreamt, and I’ve had my e-mail account hacked twice – perhaps payback for my own playing with others’ identities.
But going back to the palm readings, I’ve also been told some fascinating stuff about gypsies in Ireland that I need to follow up, and have heard about a family friend who for years visited fortune tellers on a weekly basis.
From what I was told, well, I’ve been to a wedding, and been invited to another. I had a great time, as predicted.
I’ve heard of two pregnancies – not quite the happy news from loved ones I was promised, but extended family members so I suppose they still count.
No deaths as yet, thankfully.
Two people have decided to change their car, as was foreseen. I have made the decision to move flat, hopefully in a few weeks, and it does feel like the right decision, worth the wait. And we’ll find out from tomorrow whether those changes that are taking place at work, are for the best… Similarly, we don’t yet know if predictions of success in my work were correct – the forthcoming exhibition and start of term will tell us – but in the past week I have had some favourable comments and internet linkage for which I am extremely grateful. They are on www.wsag.org and www.mercyonline.co.uk if you’d like a look.
One of the snippets of information I was given has already been proven definitely wrong though, as wearing blue on my next outing with friends didn’t bring me luck at all as far as Everton were concerned.
I’m getting closer to finding out who the two-faced jealous guy might be. I’ve got my suspicions. In fact, seeing as I always like to involve you in my stories, check your phones and see if the number 07818691644 means anything to any of you, just out of interest – and if not, don’t hesitate to make anonymous prank phone calls to it late at night if you’d like - please let me know via theartist@jonathangreenbank.com if it does, or you do.
Talking of numbers, throughout September I’ll be seeing if those lucky ones bring that money I was promised – I’ll let you know how that goes too.

I liked it. So much useful material. I read with great interest.
