It is no wonder that psychics have a bad name. There has always been a certain percentage of practicing psychics who use the illusion of psychic abilities to fleece the unwary and line their own pockets. Through a sometimes complex system of cold readings and the Forer effect, these charlatans are able to imitate the abilities of real psychics and thus prey upon desperate and needy people who seek their assistance. These con artists are often hard to detect, but there are a few signs that can help you to determine when the psychic you are talking to is more concerned with the contents of your wallet than in any messages from the great beyond.
One of the most obvious sign that you are sitting in front of a fraud is when you are told in the middle of the reading that the "veil" is closing on the interpretation and that it can only be opened again with another reading at an added cost. This is such an obvious sign that many people fail to pick up on it, particularly if the alleged psychic is a talented cold reader who has managed to read you well enough to draw you deep into his or her web of lies. Desperate and hurt people are easy marks for such ruses, and are eager to have their questions answered. By playing upon their fears and the information that they themselves are providing to the psychic with their reactions and responses to the fraudulent reading, these unwary victims are only too eager to line the pockets of these unscrupulous frauds.
Cayces methodologies involved him lying down and entering a trance. The subjects of his readings were seldom present, so the questions were read to Cayce while he was in his trance and he would then give a reading. Early readings focused on the physical health of the subject, but later in life Cayces psychic trance readings expanded to include past life readings, dream interpretations, and advice for businessmen. Cayce always denied remembering anything that he had said while in his trances.
You should also avoid phone psychics whenever possible. Most learned practitioners of the psychic arts steadfastly maintain that there is no psychic so talented that they can read your past or future without having you in front of them. IN fact, many of the so-called "psychic hotlines" are nothing but phone banks with hired employees reading pre-written destinies from scripts. In other words, they are usually an inbound telemarketing operation, and who really trusts a telemarketer to foretell the future? Unfortunately, many people who use phone psychics build up an addiction to the "readings", as the psychic will encourage them to call back on a regular basis - sometimes as often as every day. This is a sure sign that someone is more interested in your credit card than in your well-being.
Finally, even if the psychic is reputable, and seems legitimate, you can protect yourself from phonies by maintaining your distance during a reading. Never be so receptive to the psychic that you inadvertently provide clues to him or her with either your verbal responses to his or her questions or with your body language. A true psychic needs only your physical presence to facilitate an accurate reading, no matter the methodology they employ.
