Hello, my name is Don Reed Simmons.
I started giving reading back in the early 80's and turned professional around 1995.
My first Tarot deck was given to my by my aunt who was a Jungian therapist when I was in high school. It was the Rider Waite deck and I just couldn't figure it out.
For years it sat in my drawer.
Every so often I would try and try.
Finally after about 12 years I found myself in a metaphysical store in Venice, California in 1983. That is when I found the Tarot deck that "spoke" with me.
After Studying palmistry in 1985 with Indian Master Amarjit Singh Modi, my intuitive skills were being truly activated. I didn't know at that time, however, that my intuitive skills had actually been SLAMMED AWAKE in 1976 when I was 20 years old. It was lying dormant. Teaching me slowly and sometimes painfully. Had I known the difficulties I would have endured, I perhaps would have stayed on the farm where I grew up and hang out with my cow, who was my "teacher" in childhood. (There is a story about how the cow taught me sound therapy. See separate page.)
It was around 1990 when my Spirit Guide, a Hawaiian Shaman, appeared in a Vision and has not left. (Well, except for 3 years one time - but he wasn't really gone. I just didn't know it. Another lesson. Another 3 YEAR lesson!)
Today I am a full time Visionary Consultant, psychic, if you will. But my job is not to tell you how much money you have in your pocket. I don't do parlor tricks or mind reading. I have no need to impress you.
I work for God.
The first Angel that came to me in the early 80's was Arch Angel Gabriel, the Messenger of God. At the time I was actively in the film business living in Los Angeles and thought my films were supposed to be "message films."
I was sort of wrong. I made some of those, but the messages from AA Gabriel were much more personal than that. That's when I turned to doing readings for other people. And I was good. Often I got hired on commercials so I would keep the clients busy reading their palms instead of watching what the director was doing. It was a win-win situation.
People say I change their lives. I don't know about that. I tell people the possibilities as they are presented to me by my bosses. God and my Spirit Guide. I show them the roadblocks and the step ladders. I don't walk the Path for them.
"I fly the plane, you look out the window."
Meaning, I'll show you the sights ...
you have to decide if you want to see it.
Yes, I've been to Egypt. I did a documentary there for Discovery Channel and interviewed the Minister of Antiquities, Dr. Zahi Hawass and got unbelievable access to the pyramids.
