I've had people come to me asking seemingly innocuous things, only to feel extremely negative energy coming from them. Whenever I come up to something which I didn't expect (save for actually in the results of a reading) I really will tell the person that I need to back off and think about it. Normally, I'll go home and do one personally for me, to see if I should even undertake the reading. If that shows clear skies, or atleast somewhat positive signs, I'll do their requested reading from home. This is a buffer to make sure that I don't have any surprises I wouldn't like to find out about in a reading. (I once wound up figuring out someone was cheating on their spouse, and because it came up in the reading, I was threatened to keep silent about it. Funny that, I didn't even know her husband anyways... Since then I've been very careful about how a reading goes). Then, if nothing comes up I feel unwilling to discuss with the person, I'll do a personal reading for them. However, I will explain to them why I felt I needed more time to decide, and what I did also. That generally seems to satisfy the majority who maybe had just had something really bad happen that really didn't reflect in their questioned situation. If at anytime, I feel like it shouldn't happen, I just tell the person that I don't think I should do their reading and ask them to find another person. I explain it's nothing personal, but that I just can't get the right "feel" for them, which is exactly true.
