How to Spot a Good Psychic or Tarot Reader Plainly stated.... how a seeker can beware! Hearing predictions is a form of entertainment
and may help you to release anxiety
about
your problems.
Genuine psychic readers, no matter the tools
they use… are typically spiritual creatures
on the planet that seek to guide others to
the right path. A good reader is often a
spiritually whole person without their own
daily dramas or relationship issues. They
should live on a higher plain, have a basic
understanding of human relationships, and
evolved possibly through their own failures
to a higher place.
A good psychic reader may not be "spiritual"
at all. To use a tool such as the tarot,
one neither needs to follow the "new
age" or subscribe to a particular religion.
Tarot Readers, Rune Readers, etc can also
have normal lives and backgrounds.
A genuine psychic reading doesn't ask you
to rub crystals, burn incense, or spend money
to break a hex or buy things. A good reading
is guidance for your soul, not your wallet.
A good reading is for your personal development
and growth.
A good psychic or fortune teller doesn't
do "cold readings", they do not fish you for information,
and shouldn't ask you many questions. A good
reader or psychic may ask for an occasional
confirmation with a yes or no answer from
you, but ultimately they should be doing
most of the talking Some statements you get
in a reading may be vague and easily applied
to anyone else. If the predictions or statements
are vague and almost "generic"
in nature then it leaves you to interpret
the message and allows the fortune teller
to still call themselves accurate.
A genuine psychic is not 100% accurate, and
if they were they'd be some type of God/dess.
Many internet psychics claim an accuracy
rate or statistic. But who is measuring the
% of times they are correct? Themselves?
The same person making the claim? Your free
will is going to play a huge part in how
your future plays out. A good psychic knows
they cannot pressure you into decisions that
you must make for yourself.
A good psychic reader will tell you about
obstacles in your path, as well as the reason
they are holding your back from growth. No
one can remove those obstacles but you.
A good reader must be a good COMMUNICATOR
too! They must understand how to use language
and proper English in order to effectively
convey their message to you. A reader with
poor language skills may not give you a well
rounded or even intelligent answer, is that
what you want? A website, or ad with poor
language skills (misspellings, run on sentences,
lack of direction in statements etc) probably
represents a bad communicator, or at least
someone who may not convey their reading
very clearly.
A good psychic doesn't speak to you in "cliche's".
Over used fluffy new age terminology in an
ad or webpage is a significant sign that
they have a good reason to hide behind cliche's.
Movies and TV shows are full of cliche's
about psychics or tarot readers, so it's
likely we have all seen many.
A good psychic reading never blames a problem
or obstacle on another individual. An unstable
situation in our lives is a learning tool
to further our growth. When we miss opportunities
to grow by blaming our problems on "people",
we do not advance our souls
A good psychic can provide testimonials from
former clients, word of mouth by others is
a far better advertisement than a website,
a blog, or an in a newspaper. A good reader
usually has a long list of regular clients.
Psychics are sensitive people, sensitive
to their surroundings and the emotions of
others. Place no judgment on a psychic, play
no "games" either because it will
affect your readings quality. The best way
to test a reader is to hear the messages
they have to tell you, and to evaluate it
on your own over a few days time with analytical
thought.
A good psychic reader will tell you the truth
with class, intelligence, and respect your
dignity. A good reader will gently inform
you of bad news or negative events also,
no one ever has a perfect happy reading without
some area that needs attention. But if you
cannot handle hearing "truth" then
you may want to reconsider having any sort
of reading.
A good psychic does not come at a cheap discounted
price because a good psychic already has
a vast clientele and needs to discourage
"curiosity seekers" due to their
limited time. Quality does come with a price,
however, it should also not be outrageously
expensive either.
Now let's consider some definitions that
a seeker may not fully understand.
These
definitions come from dictionary meanings or Wikipedia. All information below can be looked up
yourself and I suggest that seekers
always
arm themselves with information.
A Spiritual Advisor is a person with qualifications/degrees
and formal education in spiritual and religious
counseling. Not necessarily a psychic, more
often is not.
Spiritual Advice typically comes from a person who may lack
formal education, may follow a specific religious
path, and may offer their opinion to you
based off their beliefs and experiences.
This person may not use tools (tarot, runes)
and they may not be psychic at all.
A Psychic is a person with the ability to see, hear,
or feel (sometimes all) by only the use of
senses other than the typical ones.
A Tarot Reader is a person who uses the story and symbolism
of the Tarot to interpret a "reading"
or "message" for someone. A Tarot
Reader may or may not have psychic abilities
and still be able to do a reading. A Tarot
Reader is much like an "interpreter"
of the symbolism in the cards to pass on
a message or to answer a question. The cards
themselves are not magical.
A person who practices astrology is called
an Astrologer. Astrology has 2 very basic parts: the general
horoscope information, and the exact mathematics
and science. Because one studies or practices
horoscopes, it may not make them an astrologer.
An astrologer doesn't need psychic ability
to read or create an astrological chart.
Divination is defined as the use of magical tools and
means to seek information on events, people
and situations in the past, present and future.
Divination is a term to define obtaining
knowledge by magical means rather than of
psychic ones through ritual and the use of
tools. Divination is basically the interpretation
of signs, symbols, omens, colors, numbers,
weather etc.
Fortune-telling is the practice of predicting the future,
usually of an individual, through
mystical
or supernatural means and often
for commercial
gain. It often accompanies the
religious
practice known as divination.
Common methods used of fortune telling include
astromancy, cartomancy (fortune
telling with
cards), tarot card reading, crystallomancy
(reading of a crystal sphere),
and cheiromancy
(palmistry, reading of the palms).
The latter
three have traditional associations
in the
popular mind with the Roma and
Sinti people
(often called "gypsies").
Various
forms of fortune-telling appear
throughout
the world. Typical topics that
fortune-tellers
make predictions on include future
romantic,
financial, and childbearing prospects.
In contemporary Western culture, it appears
that women consult fortune-tellers more than
men: some indication of this comes from the
profusion of advertisements for commercial
fortune-telling services in magazines aimed
at women, while such advertisements appear
virtually unknown in magazines aimed specifically
at men. Telephone consultations with psychics
(charged to the caller's telephone account
at very high rates) grew in popularity through
the 1990s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortune-telling.
If you are seeking more definitions then
what my little website has provided then
please go to the Glossary of Psychic Terms at Astrocenter. There are literally thousands
of genuine psychics, tarot card readers,
and astrologers on the internet that really
can do wonderful readings. Unfortunately
though, there probably aren't as many "good"
ones out there as there are websites that
promote it. Purchasing a reading ANYWHERE
and from ANYONE should also include a certain
level of professional business ethics and
procedures. Anything you give your money
to -- is a business and should behave as
such.
