In a world where spiritual guidance is sought after more than ever, ensuring the authenticity of genuine psychic readings is crucial. Many are on a quest for enlightenment, clarity, or a hint of what the future holds. But how can one differentiate between a genuine authentic psychic and a scammer?
If a reader approaches you for money this is a total red flag. I am writing this post because someone has contacted me saying that someone has approached them pretending to be me & asking for money outright to ‘solve their problem’. Firstly I would never claim to solve your problem & secondly yes I offer paid services, it is your choice to do your research & decide if you would like to purchase one, I would never approach you. Unfortunately this is becoming increasingly prevalent, especially on instagram.
1. Historical Reverence vs. Modern-day Malpractice
For centuries, genuine psychics have been revered, providing insights and guiding individuals through life’s mysteries. However, with the rise of the digital age, there has been a surge in self-proclaimed ‘psychics’ who may not possess genuine skills. So, how do you filter the genuine from the fake?
2. Check Reviews and Testimonials
Before committing to any psychic or tarot reading, delve deep into reviews and testimonials. Platforms like Google, Yelp, and even social media can offer a glimpse into others’ experiences with a particular psychic or service. Unfortunately it is also now easy to fake testimonials, check out the reader, their site, their socials. If they have 1,000s of glowing reviews this could also be a red flag.
3. Celebrity Psychics
You may see psychics splashed all over media with celebrity clients. This may well be genuine, the celebrity may have been so happy with their reading that they immediately felt the need to spontaneously start promoting the site all over social media, or not. In my experience any celebrity who has contacted a reader usually does so on a personal level & often in confidence. You may well see celebrities recounting encounters with psychic readings in interviews & in my opinion this is far more trustworthy. Likewise I don’t know any reputable psychics who would announce to the media that they had read for a celebrity, readings are usually carried out in confidence.
4. Credentials and Affiliations
Legitimate psychics often possess certifications, affiliations, or are part of recognized psychic communities. Research their background, training, experience ( I have been giving readings for 40 years my site has been active for 20) and any professional associations they might be part of.
5. Too Good to Be True?
If predictions or readings sound excessively positive or too general, be wary. Genuine psychics provide balanced readings, encompassing both positive and potentially challenging aspects.
6. Clear Pricing Structures
Transparent pricing without hidden fees is a hallmark of legitimate services. Beware of those who continually demand more money for additional insights or “curse removals.”
7. Personal Connection
Remember, genuine psychics connect with you on a deeper level. If you feel the session is scripted or lacks personal resonance, trust your intuition.
8. Seek Recommendations
Personal recommendations from friends or family can be invaluable. If someone you trust had a positive experience, it might be worth considering the same psychic.
Conclusion
As spiritual practices like tarot and psychic readings gain traction, discerning the authentic from the fraudulent becomes paramount. By doing thorough research, checking credentials, and trusting your intuition, you can find genuine psychics who offer valuable insights and guidance.
