I've got a buddy... He believes he is psychic. He reads or watches videos about it. I was subjected to a monologue where the orator bounced between E=MC2, why people always have the TV on, bacteria growing in a spiral and a couple of experiments that haven't been duplicated (doesn't stand up to peer testing) and uses that as proof of psychic ability. Yeah, I didn't get it either. The thing is though, that they are selling the audience the idea that they (the audience) is psychic and too smart for any nay sayers. This summer the same buddy paid to attend a workshop and was told that his psychic ability was manipulating objects in Australia. He believes this will lead to a mastery of the stock market. I donno, man. I couldn't tell if the orator knew that everything was BS or if he truly believed it. Some kind of scam though, I'm sure the workshop wasn't cheap. I mean, you'd have to pay somebody to pick up the phone in another room and fake an Australian accent and all.

"IMHO, anyone who willingly takes money from another for "psychic" services like readings, fortune telling, etc., etc. is a liar, a thief and a fraud. How people like Sylvia Brown live with themselves is beyond my comprehension. "

Why does it have to be only those two options? I knew a psychic who knew she wasn't actually psychic, but justified it by saying that she had high emotional intelligence and used it to help people get to where they needed to go, like a cheap, magical counselor.

I read tarot cards. I am a firm believer. It has given me and many others great insight and closure of things in our lives. However, I do not feel that it can answer everything. I see tarot as simply a tool to give you more insight on life. It is not something you should lean on.

"i'm not a "psychic" exactly but i do tarot readings for festivals etc. and the thing is people take out of it what they want now i'm not going to lie a lot of it is along the lines of cold reading, even seasoned "psychics" have told me as such along similar ("in order to get a proper connection you need to form an emotional bond with them, get to know them, get to understand them and your readings will improve massively") now here's where we get to the aforementioned "thing" i only do readings at festivals for a couple of dollars a pop, so pretty much 90% of my customers are just there for shits and giggles, i talk to them, give them some vague positive advice and they go on their merry way so in answer to your question: people aren't paying me to tell their future, their paying me for them to tell them what a "magic card" means, so in that sense, no i am not scamming my customers "

I've never claimed to be psychic to anybody However, I do like to read tarot (can't say I'm all that adept though) Apart from some online readings with another account I haven't really worked with clients nor am I seeking clients. I just don't feel my skills are enough that's all.

"I unfortunately cannot speak for myself but I have a co-worker who does readings for parties and individuals on the side (for which she charges money). She 100% believes the nonsense pouring out of her mouth about signs, auras, energies and whatnot. My field unfortunately draws a fair number of people into mysticism and "energy" so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. "

"My friend's mom definitely has some physic abilities. She doesn't tell anyone about them but her close friends but there are stories of her knowing her daughter's bus was going to get into a accident and she called her to put on her seat belt and she'll be okay. Sure enough my friend fell asleep and the bus hit something. She's also really good at gambling and will tell her friends before going on a trip to go to a certain table and put this much on this whatever and they'll win every time she tells them and buy my friends family something nice because they usually win thousands of dollars because of her. Something similar to the bus story happened to her husband but I forget the details. She doesnt actively seek her "powers" but when they come, they come. "

Tarot reader here! I've only been practicing for about two years but I've been told I have some talent. When I give a reading, I ask for no information at all and I go in blind. I'm not interested in cold reading you or just telling you what you want to hear. I interpret the cards using their meanings and my own sense of intuition. I've given a few readings that actually served as a warning (my cards pointed towards somebody stealing from him, turns out someone had lifted one of his credit cards) but I don't believe I'm psychic. I'm not entirely willing to say my cards are a hoax but I truly have no intentions of scamming people. Most people who come to me for a reading are more interested in the novelty of a tarot reading. I like reading for people and I only ask for a few dollars if you're requesting a very time intensive layout.

I also did an AMA - it boils down to, either, somebody is claming to have additional senses are either lying or mentally ill. The business thrives on exploiting lonely and vulnerable people for private gain.
