Getting a Psychic Reading – Remember to do Your Homework First.
Written by psychiclineadmin on May 3, 2009
As with any psychic reading, especially a phone psychic reading, the quality of the event will be completely dependent upon your perception of it. The only way to gauge it is to ask yourself a few questions, most importantly; Did they answer your questions effectively? Unfortunately, most people aren’t particularly introspective, and fail to truly consider their experience with the reader, and the outcome.
But fear not. With practice comes experience. You’re not expected to know all the guidelines the first time you get a reading. Like most things, the more you do something, the better you get at them, and this certainly includes knowing what to look for when talking with a psychic. Whether you’re talking with a phone psychic, or at an in-person reading, there are certain cues that you’ll pick up on immediately that will allow you to make an informed judgment on the quality of the reader and reading.
Prior to getting your reading though, there are quite a few preliminary steps that you can take that will help you research your chosen psychic. Doing so will save you time, money, and frustration. For instance, there’s no sense getting a reading from someone that will not meet your expectations. Or from someone that gets poor reviews, or is a poor communicator.
One of the very first things you should check, is the length of time that a psychic reader has been giving readings. If they’re professional, chances are they have a long track record and have plenty of verifiable references. Don’t worry though if there are a few bad reviews amongst many glowing ones. Remember, you’ll always have people that are unsatisfied, and those people always seem to be the most vocal about it.
In today’s world, researching a potential phone psychic reader is as easy as opening an internet browser, and using your favorite search engine. The amount of information that you’ll find will be staggering. It’s often that case that many people are surprised by the amount of information that they find. Remember to take your time to process all this information, but don’t get overwhelmed by it. Pick a few of the best reviewed psychics, and then whittle down the list based upon what your requirements are, and what they specialize in or offer. Some phone psychic readers specialize in different things, astrology readings and tarot readings to name just two.
A real psychic is a true professional that operates with a high set of ethics, and isn’t just in the business to make money. True certified psychics are driven by their desire to help people understand their lives and get insight into their situations. Real psychics won’t coerce you into spending more money for things that aren’t a part of the original reading. Beware of those types, scammers are rampant in this field. Just remember that if you do find a great reader to leave positive comments and reviews for them. The same is true if you find a fraudulent one. Leave bad reviews and comments in order to warn others. And most importantly, have fun!

How to Read Tarot Cards – Characteristics of the Suits of the Tarot Deck
Written by psychiclineadmin on April 14, 2009
In a standard tarot card deck, there are 78 cards. As most people know, Within this grouping they are further divided into 2 more specific sections known as the Major Arcana, and the Minor Arcana. But, what some people don’t know is that the tarot deck can also be split up based on suits. In the tarot deck, the suits are Pentacles, Swords, Wands, and Cups. This suit arangement is just like a standard deck of playing cards. Both have four suits, albeit different ones.
The unique thing about these suits within the tarot deck is that they’re each associated with one of the four elements of astrology, and their respective triplicities.
-
The Suit of Cups – The Earth element – Taurus, Virgo, and the Capricorn signs
The Suit of Pentacles – The Water element – Cancer, Scorpio, and the Pisces signs
The Suit of Swords – The Air Element – Gemini, Libra, and the Aquarius signs
The Suit of Wands – The Fire element – Aries, Leo, and the Sagittarius signs
Now while all of the specific relationships between these suits, elements, and influences are beyond the scope of this article, we can take a look at the relationship between the suits and certain traits that are typical of each of the elements.
First up is the Fire Element. You may be aware that the Fire element has traits that are typically those of confidence, enthusiam, assertiveness, and determinations. The fire sign typifies action. The Suit of Wands shares those same characteristics with the Fire element.
Next, The Earth element is most often associated with dependability, stability, introversion, cautiousness, and conventionality. The Earth element, and in turn the Suit of Cups share these traits. THerefore, the Suit of Cups is a very structured and stable suit.
The Water Element is often associated with being very intuitive and feeling. They’re often more emontionally guided and tend to be more passive than active. The Suit of Pentacles shares these traits with the Water Element.
And finally, The Air element. The Air element is quite often thought of as the great communicator. They’re socially active and typically very intellectual. They’re thinkers and often have a great sense of objectivity. The Suit of Swords Shares these traits with the Air element.
So as you can see from this all too brief explanation, using the individual suits can help you to become a better tarot card reader, and help to make your readings much more accurate.
A Horoscope Reading Doesn’t Have to Always be Serious, It Can Be FUN Too!
Written by psychiclineadmin on March 31, 2009
I love to read the horoscopes in magazines. I enjoy reading my own and my boyfriend’s. Since they’re not specifically written for me, I don’t put too much stock in them, but they’re really fun, and more often than not, they’re spot on.
As soon as my Cosmopolitan magazine comes in the mail each month, I flip to the horoscopes and read them aloud. I typically read mine first, then my boyfriend’s. Usually, we can share a laugh at the very least, and it’s a fun little thing to do together. I find it really interesting when it tells you about romantic compatibility as far as friendships and relationships are concerned. As luck would have it, our horoscopes say that we’re very compatible as lovers! But I really didn’t need a horoscope reading to know that!
Even though I think that the daily or monthly horoscopes are pretty accurate, I think that the individual Zodiac sign readings themselves are very good. They are especially good at describing a person based solely on when they were born. For example, I’m a Sagittarius, and I think that I have many of the typical traits and characteristics of that sign. I would say that I’m reliable and trustworthy, and I’m definitely an optimist—all common in Sagittarius descriptions. I also have quite a temper and am very impatient, which are some common flaws of people born under this sign.
Overall, I don’t think you should let horoscopes and Zodiac signs rule your life, but they’re interesting to read and something to keep in mind for sure. More often than not, at least for me, they’re extremely accurate and provide some great feedback into where my life could be heading.
Getting your horoscope from Tarot card readings, on the other hand, seems eerily accurate sometimes. My cousin got really into Tarot cards years ago and she used to read my horoscope for me all the time. their quality of a tarot reading definitely varies, but sometimes it’s so spot on that it’s scary! Obviously, you can’t become totally paralyzed and consumed by what their forecasts are for your life, but I think that it’s something to keep in mind when you’re making important choices.
Sometimes, she would help me make important decisions using the cards. She also had a friend that would call and ask for readings all the time before making they made any major decisions. Generally, though, I feel pretty much the same way about Tarot cards as horoscope reading; Use it to help enhance your life, and have fun with it!
