Psychics secrets you are not meant to know!  

by Rosemary the Celtic Lady

How do you find a good accurate psychic medium?

You could look up the yellow pages but any good psychic will have enough word of mouth business and web site traffic that they would not waste the money on a yellow pages advert.

There is always a hot line psychic. The advantages are immediate response and you can pay by the minute. Is it a good idea! The reality is many of these psychics make about 10 cents for every dollar you spend and they are prepared to read for you at a moments notice!

Personally I would not recommend a hot line psychic. A number of my psychic friends have told me about their terrible experiences with psychic hot lines, which range from underhand tactics to keep you on the phone as long as possible and more worryingly the psychics were expected to read from a pre-rehearsed script.

The likelihood is many of these hot lines are poor very value for money. One thing is for sure if the psychics are prepared to work for $10 bucks an hour at a moments notice you have to assume the chance of getting a quality reading by a hot line psychic are very remote.

Disillusioned your next stop is your local metaphysical store however if you think about it these psychics are all part time psychics that need the foot traffic of the store to be busy. Some of these psychics may well be good but lack the experience of a full time psychic who have their own client base. In short you may well get lucky and get a fairly decent reading at an attractive price. If you're on a tight budget and don't have any life changing decisions to make then this would be a fairly attractive option as prices will be around a dollar a minute.

How about a psychic fair, all the psychics in one room and you get to pick! If you really need your reading to be in person then this is an excellent option however you have to be very selective. Look for an excellent presentation, brochures, business cards a banner or a poster; these are all good signs of a professional psychic that makes enough money to afford to invest in their business.

Particularly good signs are the psychics that collect your email and have a web site that has a real domain name rather than some myspace or freebie hosting account; these are the real professional psychics who know how to market their skills. You will spot them from across the room they will ooze confidence and be busy all weekend long.

If you see an out of state psychic who gives you good vibes, go with your gut only an exceptional psychic is willing to pay for flights and hotels plus their booth fee and still expect to make a profit. Expect prices around $2 to $3.50 a minute, if they charge less they are probably not that good.

Ideally your first stop should really be a word of mouth referral from a trusted friend or your next best bet is to search on line. Surprisingly the phrase psychic is not a particularly fruitful phrase to search for as you'll end of with directories full of Google adverts or encyclopedias and skeptic sites.

Look form more refined searches when looking for a quality psychic, search for psychic medium or better still international psychic mediums are really the psychics psychic, when a psychic wants a reading they look for psychic mediums.

However you will have to search a bit deeper as you will not get a consultation with the celebrity psychics such as John Edward or James Van Praagh as they are too busy with group sessions and book promotions. Before you pick up the phone you must consider the following very important points when selecting your psychic

1. Is this psychic better known for their TV, radio or books than their psychic ability as many a psychic that can write profitable books have been overly hyped by a great PR and marketing team.

2. Is there price both realistic and affordable to the point you can justify the benefit to you. This is very important as rates can vary from $75 to $750 dollars for 30 minutes however please note you will not get a reading 10 times better for 10 times the price!

3. Be selective check out the top twenty psychics in MSN, Google and Yahoo, you should see a few psychics covering all the search engines. It is easy for a celebrity psychic to buy links in directories and flood the search engines with book reviews to dominate the top spots in Google however it is much more difficult to get into all the search engines purely on merit.

4. Lastly avoid the paid psychic listings; many of these are hot line or psychics that can't get ranked on merit. None of the paid listings are in the top twenty organic search engine positions! Some of these paid listings are $2.50 per click. An old psychic hot line trick is to sell your contact details to online marketers to make even more obscene profits! I repeat avoid the paid listings if you want to avoid a sea of spam email.

By now you are sufficiently educated to make an informed decision, good luck and when you do find that one good psychic tell your friends.
