Psychic Readings vs. Fortune Telling

Psychic Readings vs. Fortune Telling

Many people refer to psychics as fortune tellers. Even some psychics use the term ‘fortune telling’ to describe what they do when providing psychic readings. I must admit that I have a little bit of a problem with this. Here is why.

Fortune Telling

In my mind, the terms ‘fortune teller’ and ‘fortune telling’ always conjure up images of ‘fairground mystics’ in darkened tents (usually filled with all kinds of weird and wonderful objects) ‘predicting the future’ at often ridiculous prices. These individuals often:

  • Use clever questioning to get information they can use to appear real.
  • Tell people exactly what they want to hear.
  • Predict the soon to be expected arrival of a ‘tall, dark and handsome stranger’ (or incredibly beautiful woman, as the case may be).
  • Predict impending incredibly good fortune.
  • Frighten the living daylights out of some poor, unsuspecting individual by talking about imminent doom and gloom (including terrible accidents and even unexpected deaths!).

These people are, as far as I am concerned, not only incredibly irresponsible (and more often than not also fakes), but also one of the main reason why so many people deny or laugh at the reality of psychic abilities.

Psychic Readers

Genuine psychic readers rarely operate in this manner. First of all, we are normal, everyday-type people just like you who, as a rule, only dress up in outlandish costumes for Halloween or other fancy dress parties. While we may have divinatory tools like crystal balls or tarot cards at hand, we typically also live in and work from perfectly ‘normal’ homes and/or offices.

Psychic Readings

We also do not claim to be able to predict the future – we evaluate potential outcomes of certain situations, events or circumstances with the help of our spirit guides and attempt to provide you with guidance based on those evaluations. What’s more, circumstances would have to be extremely exceptional for a real psychic to ever tell you that you are about to have a serious accident or die – this is simply something we would never do under normal circumstances. We will also be perfectly honest with you, as opposed to simply telling you what we believe you may want to hear.

Psychic Readings vs. Fortune Telling

In other words, if you call me or any other member of my team to have your ‘fortune’ told (and expecting to get precise predictions as to what will happen when, where and why), there is a good chance that you will end up disappointed. If, on the other hand, you are looking for guidance and are prepared to get answers you may not really want to hear, you will definitely benefit from our services.
