Story & Lesson Highlights with Reverend Charlene Hicks & Erica Ages of Marietta,Ga.

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Reverend Charlene Hicks & Erica Ages. Check out our conversation below.

Charlene & Erica , it’s always a pleasure to learn from you and your journey. Let’s start with a bit of a warmup: What do you think is misunderstood about your business? 
What do you think is misunderstood about your business?
I feel that most people see me as a psychic, a fortune teller or someone who flips cards for a living. I am so much more than what I’m classified as under my Google account. As a professional consultant I have been in business for 47 years helping countless numbers of individuals and corporations have a view from above of what is coming soon. With the insight that I provide I’m able to help my clients achieve a better outcome than was expected. My tagline”: Is knowing events in advance is the perfect way to secure a brighter future for yourself. With the knowledge of astrology and my psychic abilities I’m able to describe in advance people, places and events that an ordinary person cannot. Many times, I have described a place where they are moving to before they knew that they were moving. I can see the inside of the home above the home and things that are happening to the home before the client is aware of it. One client who came in many years ago I described where she was living in the basement part of a house that she rented and that the people above her had left the water running and the bathtub had overflowed. She was unaware that anything upstairs had happened because they had left for vacation. I told her when she arrived home to look in her bathroom to see if there was leaking on the walls from the ceiling above. When she arrived home, she had received a phone call from the owners who lived upstairs saying that the bathtub had overflowed and that she may have leaks down below. The entire wall in her bathroom was wet and leaking from above when she returned to her place. She did not ask about any of this in her session, but the spirit world felt it was important that she was aware of what to expect.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?

I am a professional astrologer, psychic medium, hypnotist and ordained spiritualist minister. Over the past 40 years I’ve been heard live more than 300 radio stations throughout the US and Canada giving live psychic readings on air. I’ve been featured in 168 different articles throughout the US and Canada. In 1986 I began writing for the Atlanta Women’s News Paper a monthly Astrological column. In 1989 I wrote for a weekly column for the Gainesville Gazette called: “Celestial Concepts” and “The Metaphysical Minute”. From 1993-2003, I was also columnist for Southern Flair Magazine writing horoscopes, features and travel.

As a Psychic medium, I am known for forecasting events. locating missing and murdered individuals and describing people coming into life. I was asked by the GBI to locate a woman who had been missing for a year named Julie love and I was taken where she was last seen before she disappeared. I told them she was not in the area but the house that I pointed out that was significant to me turned out to be where her boyfriend lived. I stated that she would be found before the end of the summer southwest of the Atlanta airport near the Bankhead highway in an area that looked like a golf course near a forested area where the railroad tracks went through. As I stated to them, her body would be found on the line where the trees and the grass come together. As I described the location, I said it was like a helicopter coming over a golf course ending near the line of trees is where her body would be found. They did not have any articles, clothing or anything she had written on for me to hold. As they dropped me off at my apartment, I told them she would be found before the end of the summer in this area. One week later in July of 1989 my mother called and said turn on the TV and there was a helicopter flying over the very spot that I had described just seven days ago and they said they had located her body. The two women who were beaten by their boyfriends we’re tired of it and turned them in and told them where her body would be found. It was in the exact location that I had described near the Bankhead highway.
Over the past the past forty years I have traveled presenting “Messages from Spirit” which is “Stand-up Clairvoyance” to audiences, churches, restaurants, businesses, hotels. metaphysical centers, colleges, schools, spas, retreats. private homes, clubs and even The Congregation of Etz Chaim. I have presented my clairvoyance and astrological readings for Steelcase, Showtime, GE, The Ritz Carlton in Buckhead, Inter-Continental Hotels, Regency Suites Hotels, Poison Perfume by Christian Dior, Saks Fifth Avenue, Power 99 Radio “The Fright Train” Richo Copiers The Pyramid Club, The Buckhead Club, Hsu’s Chinese Restaurant and Cox Communication’s.
Currently I am hosting monthly events in person called: “Touched by Spirit” a class held monthly for those who would like to develop their spiritual gifts and learn about how mediumship works. Learning what a billet is and how to utilize psychometry. “Stand-up Clairvoyance” will be demonstrated, and each student will have the chance to flex their psychic muscles in this three-hour class held on the third Saturday from 1pm-4pm in Marietta, Georgia. Come and learn with fellow spiritualists who your spirit guides are and how to work with them. Your guides help you to develop your clairvoyance, clairaudience, psychometry and clairsentience. Being in a group you have others to work with on honing your skills. I also host monthly “Spirit Pep Rally’s on Zoom for those who would like a message from the Spirit World and mediumship circles in person monthly as well. The evening and time can be found on my website. The final quarter of the year brings psychic parties and of course Halloween. For those interested in Psychic Zoom parties for your friends or guests let me know. Check my website for special rates.

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
I was given my own radio show on WDUN AM Radio with Candace Petersen in September of 1988 taking live calls on air and giving psychic readings twice weekly. From the local listeners I was asked to speak at the Rotary luncheon at Gainesville College to a group of twelve men. It was an Astrological presentation and mini readings of those in attendance. After the lecture I went around the room and tuned in to each man that was there so they could see in person what I do over the radio. I have my ephemeris which has all the astrological planetary listings which are glyphs and numbers of each planet at midnight by degree. I showed them the book and what I was looking at to decipher their readings and they replied it is Greek to me. The first man I read was Grover Ford and I told him he had printing presses around him. Theat he was a surgeon of words. I also said you have had two root canals on molars 32 in the blast six months. The man across from Grover burst out laughing. Turns out he was Grover’s dentist and done both root canals on molars 32 within the last six months. Grover gave me his card and said to call him. He was the publisher for the Gainesville Gazette the weekly paper. I live in Atlanta at the time and drove up there for the radio show. Next was a call from the president of the B&T bank in Gainesville asking me to give lecture and readings at their January meeting in 1989. I had affirmed for more men in my life on my birthday in January. Well. when I arrived to speak it was the Kiwanis Club of Gainesville and the only women in the room besides me played the national anthem and then left. I was surrounded by the 250 men who were the leaders of Gainesville and at that time the poultry capital of the world. The power of the radio show and the weekly column for the Gainesville Gazette changed my career and elevated their conscious that I was more than a fortune teller. I was someone who listens and helps the local callers with my spiritual gifts. I was not paid by the radio station, and I drove up twice weekly to be on the air. I helped hundreds over the year who called in and when I was asked to speak at the Kiwanis Club every week after that presentation “I was a speaker all over Gainesville and beyond for the next six months.

Was there ever a time you almost gave up?
Yes, if it was not for My teacher from Camp Chesterfield helped when I could not find a house to move to. I had forty-eight hours left to find my next home due to a severe mold issue. My spirit guides had told me numerous times that I needed to leave the house I had rented for nearly ten years. My garden there was my joy and to leave and start over was so difficult, my landlord should have been sued but I did not have the money to do so. I called my teacher as I was so scared, and it was going to cost a fortune to move. It would have been easier to kill me and bury me in the yard, and you could have everything I had. I hate moving and every time it seems like I finally have home it is time to go. So, the lessen I learned from my teacher and my guides is the following: “You have to will it into existence.” I will have a new home that is perfect for me. After talking to my teacher that night within the next hour I found a house in the neighborhood that I had been looking at now was available and in my price range to rent. I made an appointment to see it and outside the window the sun was coming through the front window and was very bright. Totally facing east on a steep hill in Alpharetta, Georgia. The landlord said the person who was supposed to move in had been evicted and he cancelled the contract to rent to him last night. My Indian guide told me to move to the mountains, and I thought Dawsonville where my parents lived was too far away. I asked my Indian guide:” What is the name of the street?” He replied the street has wood in the name. The street was named Birch Rill Drive in Berkshire Manor. Berkshire, like the mountains in New York and Birch was the wood. The address was 145, which adds up to one a new beginning. I became number one on Google in Alpharetta at this address and a few years later number one in the state of Georgia on Google. By moving and creating the new energy my business at this location enabled me to finally buy my own home in Marietta. Detaching and moving forward to your best and highest good is not always easy because our own ego wants to control the outcome when the right choice is to surrender and let go.

So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. What do you believe is true but cannot prove?
The spirit world really does exist. Most people must experience this contact for themselves to believe it. I have been hearing from the spirit world since I was seven years old. To receive a message from a loved one from someone who does not know you and describes them where they lived and tells you things that only they would know is very powerful and healing. In a recent session with a client, I told her father was here to wish her a happy birthday and said he had two houses. He is at the one on the lake where you grew up in the spirit world today. He had my favorite car a two-seater convertible MG. She confirmed her dad owned two homes and his favorite was the lake house where she grew up riding in his MG. I have never seen her before, and her questions are folded up on one sheet of paper which I hold to my forehead to begin the session.

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: What do you understand deeply that most people don’t?
I understand that the spirit world is watching us and communicating with us if we would take more time to be quiet and listen inwardly. When we go out to help others through service because we care many benefits will arrive to you when you least expect it and from people you do not know. It is because the spirit world is watching and by being of service to mankind you will be helped in ways that will arrive in strange and unusual ways. It will come from people you do not know because you cared to help and you will be given help from above.
