When many of us hear the word “psychic” or our minds paint a picture of a neon-lit storefront, decorated with crystal balls, fog machines, and animatronic contraptions that manipulate supernatural occurrences — the true essence of smoke and mirrors.
Seeking to bust these myths, and searching for answers to many other questions, I [Neelam Aslam] decided to strike a conversation with Rabia Syed – the super-intuitive girl gifted with clairvoyance, empathy, and extra-sensory abilities.
My first virtual introduction to her was in 2016 when she appeared in ARY News’ PSL transmission. She was one of their jury members, predicting about teams and players. From the word go, Rabia had predicted that the slow-starters Islamabad United will go all the way and win the maiden title, and people laughed at her! Many ups and downs came throughout with her team losing three games on the trot to start with, she never wavered from her prediction. Finally, after 19 days, her prediction was vindicated when Islamabad United captain Misbah-ul-Haq lifted the trophy on February 23, 2016.
As a kid, I was warned by my parents that people who claim to be hypnotherapists or spiritual healers are nothing but scams. I was told to stay away from them, and see everyone with a skeptical eye who claims to be so. Going into the conversation, I had these thoughts in the corner of my mind, forcing me not to take Rabia’s every word at her face value.
However, the interview went pleasantly well and shaped my perception of Psychic Reading and spiritual healings. The manuscript of our conversation [with a few editorial changes] is as follows:
What is Psychic Reading?
Rabia: Psychic Reading is very different from Astrology. While Astrology revolves around movements and relative positions of celestial objects, Psychic Reading is entirely a different ball-game. It is basically dependent on intuitions.
Since my childhood, I had very strong intuitions about everything. I used to see a lot of dreams, which would later come true. So, my family knew I was a very different child. I was very sensitive and empathetic. I even foresaw and predicted things about strangers which later proved true.
So the Psychic Reading is basically about dreams – true dreams, in which your loved ones who have left this world, angels, or some sort of divine energy guide you through and helps foresee the future.
What Made You Move to Canada?
Rabia: As I mentioned earlier, I was quite aware of my gift right from the beginning which triggered my interest in the literature about intuition and extrasensory perceptions. To hone my skills, I moved to Canada where I spent 12 years on formal education to develop my psychic ability to the next level. I have had training from world-renowned spiritual teachers and Sufi mystics, including Dr. Moiz Hussain, the founder of The Institute Of Mind Sciences.
“A few years back, the phenomenon of clairvoyance or psychic reading was alien in Pakistan. People literally laughed at my face and discouraged me when I told them about my gift. Heart-broken with this, I moved to Edmonton, Canada. There, I found people who understood me and encouraged me to pursue this field as it is also a science and a natural gift.”
How do You Foresee People’s Future?
Rabia: See, I’m not a fortune teller, but a clairvoyant. It is a supernatural ability to perceive events in the future or beyond normal sensory contact. Using my ability, I channel into my clients’ energy to pick up information.
I also use Tarot and numerology as a tool to connect with your subconscious mind as they offer insights on personality, future events, and even life’s greater purpose.
Does This Affect You In Any Way?
Rabia: Usually, I enjoy the deep connection that we make during the session. However, sometimes, my super sensitivity takes a toll on me. On several occasions, while channeling into my client’s energy, and find them sad and dull deep down. I’m so sensitive that I also feel their pain in my heart. So, it gets kind of tricky for me.
Whenever I meet people with a lot of pain, I absorb that energy, which hurts my soul.
What Do YOu Do To Recover?
Rabia: As much as I enjoy doing readings, it is very a tiring job as well. Sometimes, I need to work on myself to feel more relaxed and freshen up. To shake off the negative energy, I do a lot of physical exercises and spiritual exercises, especially yoga, and meditation to keep myself refreshed.
What’s The Scope Of Psychic Reading in Pakistan?
Actually, psychic reading is quite famous and sought after all around the world. However, in this part of the region, especially in Pakistan, people are more into Astrology, Palmistry, and Tarot Reading. I already have clients from all over the world, including India, Canada, the US, and other countries, but I want to introduce it to the people of Pakistan because I want to help my people with my special gift.
What is Your Forte Besides Psychic Reading?
Besides, clairvoyance and a psychic reader, I’m a certified clinical hypnotherapist, Reiki master teacher, crystal therapist, color therapist, chakra healer, and feng shui expert. I’m also a mediation teacher and holistic counselor. I have a psychotherapy degree as well, which is related to psychology.
Care for a session with Rabia Syed? Good for you! Because she is currently in Pakistan, conducting a spiritual health clinic in a famous singer-turned politician, Abrar-ul-Haq’s Sughra Shafi Hospital in Narowal. There, she heals patients with alternative therapies. Rabia can be approached here.
