for those saying Penelope said she doesn't think so based on your story but trusts the cards, what that means is that SHE as a person doesn't think so but the cards are the cards she's just a messenger.
Look if you ask her if so and so is going to come back to you and the cards spell it out that yes that is the case and then you tell her that you burned his house down and killed his dog, then yea maybe Penlope the person may have an opinion that contradicts what the guides tell her but the cards dont lie.
She's not the spirit she's the messenger. Her opinion is her opinion. I just had a reading with Estrella who told me I would be married end of next year and with someone I would meet THIS year by August and he would be a certain age. When I told her my age and circumstances she said hey, yea, I agree, I wouldn't believe this either and it doesn't sound logical but thats what it says. I get it. Not her job to believe or not to believe, she doesn't know me she's just relaying a message.
I think lots of people expect readers to be magicians. They're not. Would a news reporter be unprofessional if they said Hey, the weather says its going to be 90 degress today but its February in NYC and it's been snowing for two weeks so I can't see this happening. They didn't make the weather they just report it. get it?
