Bit:
I meant mentally prepared. If psychics can keep a nuclear device from exploding, more power to them. I was using psychic to mean mental/psychological and should probably have realized that using the term would cause confusion.

On the other hand, if you really meant psychically, well *smiles* yes those of us who are psychic can prepare. Not only that, those of us who are psychic very often do our best to prevent such things from happening, just as those who pray for safety do.
*gently* You don't actually know that, Andrew. You might believe it, like you believe in love or like you believe in God; but you don't know it for certain like you know that water is wet or fire is hot.
Can you see the difference here? It might be logical to assume that a major city will be lost, but it isn't guaranteed. We don't actually know it.

My understanding of the way spiritual and psychic energy operate is this: every time someone insists that something bad or negative will happen, it cancels out the energy of their positive requests and/or efforts.
We get what we ask for. That means whatever we put our energy, attention, focus, or beliefs in is what we will get. The more careful we are to avoid insisting that the answer will be no (especially when we don't actually know what the answer will be!), the more we will get what we really want. The more careful we are to focus on positive outcomes and to avoid believing that bad things "have to" happen, the more good things will happen.
This doesn't mean that a person can necessarily avoid life challenges like accidents or illnesses by thinking happy thoughts--hey, sometimes shit happens--but it does mean people can make their lives better by not insisting that bad things have to happen.
And yanno... speaking as one of those psychics who sends a lot of energy towards safety, I appreciate not having to wade through fields of negativity to do my job.

The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett)
