The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday May 21, 2003 - B3 Psychic to appear at cafe By Paula Henriques OAKVILLE BEAVER STAFF W hen I sat dow n with psychic reader Miki. I was hoping that she w ould see a future filled with riches and glory. It was not to be. A nalysing my palms, she told me the next best thing -- I would have a long life filled with happiness. She explained my life line was deep and long and after exam ining the other ingrained lines that intersected across my palms, continued to reveal things about my personality and life experiences that w ere surpris ingly correct: I had inflamed bowels (true - I have C rohn's Disease), that my personality and visual characteristics are more o f my dad's genealogy (they say I'm a spitting image o f my grand mother) and that I'm creative, impatient and sensitive (to deny it would be a lie). Bending my right wrist, she counted the few w rinkles and explained my soul was a fairly new one. She then held my engagem ent ring and saw my upcoming outdoor w edding as rain-free and that my fiance was truly "the one." I would also have tw o children. Ah. the future did look bright. Miki. who only goes by her first name, says she is a tenth generation clairv o y an t, w hose g ift w as passed down to all the w om en and one male in her family. "Just like people are bom with gifts like athletics or artistic talent. I was bom with a bit o f extra energy in this (intu itive) area." explains Miki, whose name is derived from the G aelic version of Michael. "All it is. is an overload o f instinct and intuition." Miki. who has appeared on television shows, radio stations and new spapers in the 36 years o f her career as a psychic, will be appearing at V innie's Cafe in Bronte tomorrow from 6 p.m. to close. Admitting she didn't grow up in a usual household. Miki said being close to the supernatural didn't fa/e her a bit. She said her first brush with the living dead was when she was 10 years old. W hile waiting in an empty bedroom for her mother, who m maintained homes parttime. Miki. playing with Barbies near an antique dresser with an oval mirror, remembers her mother walking into the room and suddenly grabbing her and moving out o f the way of the dresser. W hen Miki turned back, she saw the oval mirror fly across the spot where she had been sitting, then shatter against the wall. There Is an Alternative to Nursing Home Care.

But she explained that was her only bad experience with spirits. "It's not like the m ovie Poltergeist that's just Hollywood. It's the living you have to worry about, not the dead." Miki works with many m ethods of reading including Tarot cards, com m u nicating directly with the spirit world and palm reading. She also performs psychometry, a process o f reading via photographs or objects o f the living or deceased. She explained possessing the psychic gift is more than ju st having a hunch. It's actually seeing the person travelling their life journey, hearing m essages from spirits, and getting premonitions, she said. Though Miki only promises 98 per cent accuracy, it brought a small ray o f hope into my reading - maybe becom ing rich and famous was hidden som e where in the two per cent. To book an appointment to see Miki at Vinnie's Cafe tomorrow call 905-8259034. She will not read to those under 16 years o f age. A 15-minute reading costs $40. $65 for 30 minutes. $95 for 45 minutes and $120 for an hour. . /a m ilie s to d ay are in search o f m u ch n eed ed care for th eir se n io r fam ily m e m b e rs.
