It is another stress relieving diversionary tactic. But at the same time, people do enjoy what I do. So it is mutually beneficial and no one is being misled or ripped off.
Is that how you rationalize it? You're first mistake is assuming that those you lead on have all benefitted, while your second mistake is trying to convince anyone you're not misleading people.
As Tab stated, this is fun and interesting and is helpful for people mithering about their dreams.
Then, you shouldn't demand money but instead accept offered donations. If you're as good as you claim, you probably need not worry about getting money to pay for your site.
I analysed a dream recently for a lady who had a reoccurring dream for 6 yrs, this dream was mithering her so despite being skeptical she requested my service. She was pleased with the results and for now at least this is one less thing she now has to worry about.
I saved a mans life, should I also demand payment?
Tab is also correct in that it is not magic. Far from it.
I was wondering when you were going to get around to mentioning that, because there is a huge difference between what you do and what has actually been done in the field of dream analysis under rigorous conditions.
More on that later.
I could explain every aspect of what I am able to interpret and where my answers come from even though apparantly unrelated to the actual dream.
I'm sure you could, but it is the credibility of your explanation that would be suspect.
I am not psychic , but I am highly intuitive and largely this intuition is based on life long study of human behaviour, psychology etc. So what I get a 'feeling' for does in fact have a root in knowledge, so again nothing a paranormal or spooky.
Psychology? What university did you attend? What exactly are your credentials? Will we find that the root of your knowledge is mostly guesswork?
Initially when I look at a dream sequence I do consider what I 'feel' the dream represents, then I go through each dream element individually and look at what those dream elements represent singuarly. I then combine them as a whole with my initial feeling to try to piece a picture together that is valid.
In other words, a whole lotta goobledegook and guesswork.
I take a big risk of failure when I come up with a reply that has no apparant bearing on the dream, but I do so now with confidence based on the fact that I do seem to have a high level of accuracy. More so than others who do the same thing.
They're called hits and misses, the results of guesswork.
Bear in mind I ask for NO personal details re dreamers life before I analyse, ALL other dream interepreters do. Thus I do not manufacture a reply that I KNOW will fit into their life.
Therein lies the problem, you know nothing about the people you "analyze", completely contrary to the detailed knowledge of the subjects required for credible dream analysis.
NOTE:
I have studied psychology for 20yrs and am a qualified stress consutlant and character analyst, (letters MASC AMANF after my name) all this combined with my natural intuitive ability aids me in doing a darn good job at interepretting dreams.
Ah yes, the "credentials."
Stress Consultant = a single 40 hour course costing a few hundred bucks from a new age woo-woo school.
Character analyst = ???
MASC AMANF = Member of the Association of Stress Consultancy - Adept in Mantic Arts of the New Age Foundation. In other words, a bonafide woo-woo.

So, from a course offered on the back of a new age magazine, you consider yourself qualified to perform analytical studies of the mind?
I have also worked with people for over 20yrs and in the health industry so know a lot about people in general.
Ah, the rigor of changing bedpans. Sorry, that still does not put you into the same league as a psychologist, even though you really, really, really want to believe it does.
I could if I met you tell much about you from the way you walk, your posture, your dress sense, your speech pattern, your choice of lunch. It would appear to a untrained individual as magic but is just a life time of observation and study.
But to the trained eye, it's guesswork.
Just because you do not understand the process does not mean you can call it 'magic'.
I too could learn the "process" by simply dropping a few hundred measly dollars at the local new age woo-woo establishment, then, I could have the same "credentials" as you. Picture it, if you will...
(Q) MASC AMANF
Just because you cannot afford £2.99 for a sandwich does not mean you can accuse me of swindling people out of their money as this cost is so minimal it is laughable for you even to suggest such a thing. You Phlo, Q and leo all demonstrate ignorance and a vindictive streak that demonstrates the failure that is your life.
You're peddling snakeoil, that's the bottom line, no matter how many spins you wish to doctor, it's still charlatanism and carpetbagging.
