Shall I emigrate?
Saturday 17th May 2008
I had a hard childhood, which I spent in a children's home. Later, I had two partners who were drinkers and gamblers. I've worked hard to care for my children, but now I feel worn out looking after everyone. My mortgage finishes this year, so I'm thinking of moving to Turkey. But I'm scared of being ripped off. I'd be no lonelier there than here, as I'm the one who does all the visiting. Should I go for it?

Mystic Mary replies: I asked my Chinese Oracle for you, and out came Insight, Waiting and Gathering, suggesting you need to stop and think. You're looking for a place to belong, where you'll be appreciated. Your family might take you for granted, but stop and think about how much you'll miss them, despite this. You'd especially miss your little grandson. You can create a new life right here by learning to say no, and doing the things you really enjoy. I think it'll involve more travelling, so give it a go — who knows who you'll meet?
We can’t forget Mum
Thursday 15th May 2008
My mum passed away last year, after suffering a brain haemorrhage. I'm on my own with three girls, and she was my best friend. She was especially close to my daughter, Grace. I was holding Mum when she took her last breath, and I promised I'd do my best for my girls and wouldn't let Grace forget her, but it's hard. Can you help?

Mystic Mary replies: Your mum made a big difference to many lives, and she's still there, watching over you all. You have many of her strengths, even though you haven't realised it. Grace won't forget her. Just keep talking to her about her nan, and show her photos. But above all, she'll carry in her heart the memory of the love she knew. That kind of love stays with us and comes out in later life in how we love others.
Will he change?
Tuesday 13th May 2008
I've been with my partner on and off for eight years. He's a big part of my life, but he's hurt me badly in the past. I've let him back into my life, but will I ever get the relationship I really want with him?

Mystic Mary replies: Well, from a numerology point of view, you're currently in a special kind of Personal Year — a 26/8 year — which is known amongst numerologists as a time when things get sorted. What makes me glad on your behalf is that, for you, it means you won't put up with any more nonsense. It'll be 'shape up or ship out' time for anyone who tries to treat you like a doormat. No one has the right to treat you badly, so don't let them. The other side of a 26/8 year is that it often means you get what you're looking for, so look forward to that!
