I've shared this before, but I work at a metaphysical bookshop owned by a famous tv psychic that i won't name.
There are whole degree of weirdness with my boss, I can't even explain all the subtleties that make this a weird situation.
I'll just put it out there and see what you all think.
So lately at work I've had quite a few customers come in telling me that they've had a dream about my boss or that he played a roll in their dream. I could understand maybe one or two telling me that over the course of the year i've worked here. I mean he's a celebrity. But I have had a least a dozen within the past month or so tell me that he was a character in their dream.
I though it was a little weird but I just ignored it.
Until it happened to me.
I don't remember a lot of my dreams but i distinctly remember a dream from the other day with my boss in it. I can't remember the context, I just remember him being himself, a tv psychic, and sitting at a desk. I assume he was in an authoritative role because someone introduced him to me as the "guy to talk to".
I am wondering if he has placed something in the store to influence people here. We have a lot of crystals from his private collection, including a $30,000 quartz point (it's like 4 feet long by 2 feet wide) and a $15,000 piece of Lapis Lazuli that is probably 1 1/2 feet tall, a foot wide and 4in. deep. It makes me wonder if he programmed one of these stones to influence our dreams. Perhaps it's the store itself.
My boss is into ritual/ceremonial magick a bit, but he's very well versed in all kinds of different mystery traditions, so who knows what he's capable of.
You make me think your boss would curse me if I quit.
Scary. It may even be as simple as suggestion/hypnosis, like the way Darren Brown does it. Maybe he can plant suggestions in your subconscious without you being aware of it. Can you simply ask him?
That's the weird part.
He doesn't even live here, he lives in NYC and LA. He's only here like once every couple of months. That's what makes me think it's something in the store.

Do you truly believe he, your boss, is psychic? Are these people who dream about him obsessed with him in some way? I'm very skepital of people like him. Just me though.
I believe he's a psychic. The extent of his abilities I can't really speculate on.
However, the people who have told me this barely know of him. One of them is a bit obsessed.
Update though, I got another customer who had a dream about him yesterday. This is becoming a very eerie theme. It keeps happening.
I would like to meet a psychic sometime. I need to see it for myself. That is weird though. Next time I'm on my way up through VA to PA, I'll stop in. We'll see if I have any dreams about him :-D
i only live like 1:30 away from pr, i think one day I'm going to sneak up to his book shop and have him sell me some crystals
Don't be offended if i'm a assshole to you. (assuming you don't introduce yourself)
jk
i'm like the nicest person ever irl.
vipassana, i didn't buy into psychic stuff either. but then i got a job working for and with them and i have come to understand the "phenomenon" much better. it's not really a belief kind of thing for me anymore. it's just a given. but i also know that i'm just as much of a psychic as any of the ones i work with and so are you. they have just practiced a lot more.
I once molested a coworker in my dreams. No idea why. Sometimes I wonder the same thing: "was she aware of it?"
