Description
TRIBUTE TO TIZIANO TERZANI
Pendant des années, j´ai voyagé en Asie sans jamais voir un devin, numerologue, astrologue, quiromancier ou sorcier. Mes amis ( surtout les amies) m´ont sérieusement reproché. Quelle importance si tu crois ou pas, cela fait partie ! Juste for the fun !
Plus ou moins à la même époque j´ai lu le livre du journaliste italien TIZIANO TERZANI ( qu´est devenu un de mes idoles) « Un devin m´a dit ». Comme moi, il ne croit à rien, mais... En plus il a un sense de l´humour et de l´observation extraordinaires. Il vous fait un portrait des societés qu´il visite à travers leurs devins et leurs clients.
Dans le livre, il fait comme s´il croyait à une prophécie qu´un devin de Hong Kong lui a faite : « Quoi qu´il arrive, ne prenez pas l´avion en 1992 ». Il obéit, mais c´est un pretexte pour changer de vie... et s´amuser énormement. Je vous conseille tous ce livre, un des meilleurs que j´ai jamais lu.
Ce devin là était sur la foire de la Procession Fluviale. Il était devin, astrologue, numerologue, quiromancier, la totale. En plus il parlait un peu d´anglais, que je parie qu´aucun d´entre vous ne comprendrait un mot. Mais je suis parfaitement fluente en « anglais asiatic » et je finis comme traducteur pour des amis... de langue anglaise.
Il a pris ma date de naissance ( d´accord, assez spéciale en numerologie, 22/11) , fait des calculs, lu ma main, palpé mon crâne et il était sideré. « Jamais vu un karma comme le votre de toute ma vie. Merveilleux, the best, incroyable. Vous êtes trés avancée dans vos reencarnations, un être trés spécial. Vous allez vivre jusqu´à presque 100 ans ! Vous allez être riche ! Trés, trés riche, immensement riche et celébre ! Tout le monde entendra parler de vous ».
Bon, j´attends toujours la celebrité et- surtout- la richesse, même si elle n´est pas si énorme qu´il a prévu. Mais il était le devin le plus drôle et sympatique que je n´ai jamais rencontré. Je me suis rarement autant amusée !
I TRY IN ENGLISH, HARD THIS TIME !
During years, j´ai travelled in Asia without never seeing a fortune-teller, numerologist, astrologer, quiromancier or wizard. My friends (especially women) seriously reproached me . It´s not important if you believe or not, it´s part of travel ! Just for the fun!
About the same time I read the book of the Italian journalist TIZIANO TERZANI ( who become one of my idols) “A Fortune-Teller say me »
Like me, he dont believe in nothing, but… He has a extraordinaru sense of humour and observation. He makes a portrait of the regions he visit through their Fortune Tellers and their customers.
In the book, he makes like he believed in a profecy made by a Wizard od Hong Kong ; “In any case, no takes planes during 1992”. He agree, but it´s a pretext to change his life… and take fun. I recomend you all to read this book, one of bests I ever read.
This Fortune Teller was on the fair of the River Procession. He was, Fotune Teller, astrologer, numerologist, quiromancier, all you want. He is the only one who spoke a little of english, I bet nobody here cant understand a word. But I am perfectly flowing in “English asiatic” and I finish as translator for friends… of English language.
He took my date of birth (ok, very special in numerology, 22/11), made calculations, read my hand, palpated my cranium and he was struck. “Never see a karma like your in all my life !. Marvellous, the best, incredible ! You are trés advanced in your reencarnations, a very special person. You will live into almost 100 years! You will be rich! Much, to much rich, immensely rich and famous ! Everyone will intend to speak about you”.
Ok, I always wait the celebrity and especially richness, even if it is not so enormous he guarante me. But he was the most fun and nice Fortune Teller I ever see. It´s really great and fun !
PS- I THINK I POST MY PHOTOS IN WRITERS CATEGORY : -))

I believe in that some people have the gift to see in the future. If they do it with Tarrot cards or with nummerology or even out of tea leaves!!! But how to find the one who can do it??? I have thanks God a friend who is gifted in healing through her hands and through seeing in the futere with Tarrot cards. She told me already years ago that I would live in an other country and would have my own business. That time I didn't dream even about!! Thank for sharing!! Hugs Ute

Fortune telling can change ones thoughts. I was at a vulnerable state of mind and was told I would have bad luck for years. I really am a lucky person. It's weird, but my bad luck started a half a year before I seen them. They told me things not even my close friends knew... That same year, I met a "witch" she said she was one, I told her to tell me 10 things about myself, The 10 things were right on the money and they were things like point blank, like Your Mom just past away.

It is an achievement to meet a fortune teller. Some have to always look back to see why they were born. You can look ahead.

It´s a very splendid capture. Nice shot!

Cette image illustre assez bien ce type de personnage dont tu parles et que je n'aurais jamais consulté. Que les portes du bonheur soient toujours ouvertes et faces a toi! Amicalement, Lior

Excellent picture and narative Mousson, you English translation is OK. Maybe not perfect but I can understand and enjoy all your images and narratives that accompany them. I am a lazy Englishman because I only know my own language and now I regret not learning other languages when I was young. Now it is too late for me, I forget things all the time. Wonderful dedication! Bravo!!!!!

You are already very rich! Rich in friends, rich in experiences, rich in so many things that are more valuable then money. I hope the money comes to you anyway, then you will be able to go to far more places and post even more pictures of your travels along with the wonderful accounts of what each picture is about! I wonder if this man knows how close to the truth he was?

YOu did great shot! Really nicely done! 5
