TIPS AND WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A PSYCHIC

So how do we determine who is who, what is what, what fees are too much or too little and are they for real or just scamming us? We have come up with some information to ask yourself in your own determination based on questions you need to ask. Please remember there are many good honest and accurate psychics, healers, or the 150 names that can be used, or you may run into a bad one, that is a scammer. During economic turns were the economy is not so good is when you hear and see more of the bad ones and scammers. Don't listen to them, pay them any money, or fall for the old scam if you have sent them money, if you send me more I will send it all back.

Not all will agree with what we have here simply because they may be using these tactics one or more on their clients themselves. This is also considered a gray area which many do use to obtain their clients and to make money. Not all psychics do these things, there are many, many good ones who do not need to, others want to make money fast and use them. You determine who you want to use and can trust. It is your decision, your free will, your choice.... No one else's...

TIPS FOR A PSYCHIC READING AND WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A PSYCHIC by Rose Ann Schwab, PhD

Many individuals when choosing a psychic do not know what to look for. I have included areas of which the client should do research on, or have knowledge when choosing a psychic.

1.     Check out the integrity of the psychic. Do they have a good reputation? Do they have high testimonials recommendations and awards from actual people you can contact?
       

2. Know the different types and kinds of psychics, what their gifts are and how to determine the right one for you? There are many different psychic/consultants out there. Make sure you have the right one for your needs.
              a.) Are they a professional psychic, established psychic, vision psychic, tarot psychic, palm reader psychic, entertainment psychic, spell psychic, renowned psychic, 24 hour psychic, psychic hot line or so on?
             
              b.) What tools do they use? True gifts, visions, tarot cards, astrology, palm reading, tea leaf reading or the craft and spells?
            
              c.) What type of Gifts do they have or combination of? 
                     Channels,  Empathic, (picking up information from individuals such as feelings, thoughts actions,....)  Clairvoyance (clear seeing), Clairaudience (clear hearing), Clairsentience (clear sensing) Astro Projection, Light Body Healings, Out Of Body Experience (OBE), Telepathy,  ESP, Precognition, Near Death Experiences (NDE), Trance Channeling/Mediumship (spirits speak through them), Psychometry (What is Known As Touching Objects To Receive Information/Visions),  seeing and communicating with the dead, angels, animals and so on....

d.)  Do they have any other expertise

e.)  Are they established? How long?

f.)    What makes them different?

g.)  Do you feel peace, calm and light or apprehensive, nervous and darkness?

h.)    How do they charge their fees? Credit cards, debit cards, checks, cash or charge your phone bill?  Psychic hot lines usually charge your phone bill.

i.)     How accurate is the psychic? What is their accuracy percentage?

j.)     Do they offer various prices?

k.)   What separates one psychic from another? What makes them stand out?
 

l.)     What is unique about them? What does the psychic have to offer? Does the psychic tape record the sessions for you on good equipment as a complimentary gift, whether as a healer, clairvoyant psychic, psychic who see's dead people or so on? Do they give you large plates full of information?

3. Are they professional? Are they local, nation wide, international or worldwide? What is their accuracy?  Are they credible? How many years of expertise?

4. Do you feel comfortable when talking to them? If you don't feel comfortable when you talk to them or get a good feeling about them when you talk to them on the phone, chances are you will not get a good accurate reading from them. Your own instinct tells you this, listen.
          
5. Know that there are many, many psychics out there to choose from. Some good and some bad. It is up to you to check them out. It is up to you to make your experience good and memorable or bad and in bad taste.
          
6. When choosing a psychic for serious reasons, known they are there to sincerely help and guide you. They will not take advantage of you, and will offer extras on the side, like something or some kind of meditation to assist you in grounding they recommend, and so on or even maybe a hand out and a complimentary free taping of your session.
   
    
7. Not all psychics are the same, not their work, not their gifts, not their expertise, or years of expertise and neither are their fees.
8. If you are serious about having a psychic reading, or consulting, please remember if the psychic is established with a credible reputation, high accuracy and one of the top readers or consultants for years you will be paying more.
9. Do not expect the top, best, highest accuracy with experience and/or high with education psychics and consultants to just give their services away cheaply. They have earned the fees they received through hard work, many with years of experience and many fields of expertise, some highly educated establishing professional or business fields of expertise to expand their services, established credible reputation, integrity, ethics and  through high accuracy.
10. The expert psychic or consultant will set their own fees. Respect the fees asked as earning this individual deserves and has earned. This is no different then the fees you expect to earn if working under another, or as a business expect to earn and worked hard to get.
11. Show respect, don’t take the psychic for granted and be open to the individual psychic and their information. Giving psychic readings regardless of what form, whether as an established credible psychics/consultants or others that are sincere and gifted is very draining and hard work. Skeptism or hiding things causes blockages and prevents a good reading.
12.  Please remember that not everyone is honest, and that there are scam/con artists out there who do claim to be psychics, especially during a bad economy. This is no different then any other profession when individuals are out to make a fast buck or con people. You find it in all walks of life, unfortunately people remember this in connection to psychics from generations past to today that has put a stigma and hurt the reputation of psychic who truly wish to use their gifts and make a difference. 
     These are all questions you must ask yourself if you wish an accurate credible, enjoyable, full of information session. It is your money. Do your research and don’t fall prey to a scam or con artist. There are many good, accurate, honest and ethical psychics and consultants out there to use and trust. Good Luck!

FEES THAT PSYCHICS CHARGE: UNDERSTANDING WHAT ARE THE DECIDING FACTORS & WHO SHOULD MAKE THE DECISION OF WHAT A PSYCHIC SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT CHARGE ?

The fees that psychics charge are usually determined by the psychic themselves but the following is steps in determining whether or not they are fees well deserved, timid fees, sly fees, undercutting fees, scamming fees, or forced fees.

Psychic Fees and Determination Who Decides? We have found this an interesting area to begin with simply because we searched across the world and the internet to find the answers.  There are over 150 different categories and names that psychics use that can be connected directly to the word psychic or not. So as well as not all psychics or whatever name they use are not the same.

             a.) Only the psychic who is doing the work should determine the fees they choose to charge. Why? We have found that throughout the internet there are various psychics that have placed articles on their sites about psychics that charge too much or above a certain fee. We feel that categorizing each psychic and his or her abilities is not another psychics expertise or right to do so in what fees should be set. Those who criticize the higher prices of other psychics are trying to force the individual clientele to come to them by distastefully putting down psychics, their fees without knowledge of their costs, expertise, credibility, years of being established...etc., and demanding that they are scammers simply because they charge a different fee. Not all psychics are the same period. Just like not all faiths are the same, not all doctors are the same, not all lawyers are the same, not all races are the same, not all actors, not all entertainers, and so on. You can't put all psychics together in a nice neat little package and classify them all as the same.

             b.) We feel that not all psychics, their gifts, their expertise, their credibility, their accuracy, nor their established years of hard work, nor the work they do are the same. This is why there is a variation in fees charged. This same thing hold true in business expertise, and medical expertise to name a few. An example an Medical Doctor will charge far less then a Specialist in a Specific Field. To hold the Specialist to the same fees as a Medical Doctor is very unreasonable, since this individual worked hard to establish this expertise and in some instances years of work in the field. Another example is that a Consultant that does basic web design and a Web Designer Graphic Specialist. The fees that the Consultant that does  basic web design is paid a specific fee for the knowledge and expertise they have, and in most cases, is limited. The fees that a Web Designer Graphic Specialist charges would be higher because of his or her educational background, years of expertise, specialization and knowledge to name a few. To ask a Web Designer Graphic Specialist, or a Medical Specialist to accept or charge the same fees as the other in comparison is ridiculous and would be laughed right out of the office.

           c.) The very same thing is true for psychics. Not all psychics are the same, not their gifts/abilities, not the use of them, not the years of established hard work, not the credibility, not the accuracy, not the fields of expertise they have behind them nor even their education. For one psychic or individual to state this psychic should charge this and this psychic should charge that is not their determination. Psychics that do this are actually demonstrating frustration of not getting any where, their lack of expertise, credibility, accuracy, educational backgrounds, or years of hard work.

     e.) Some psychics price their fees to low to draw you in then take advantage, some will charge completely outrages fees, like thousands of dollars for very little in return, including accuracy. Some psychics are true in their prices and charge according to their expertise, or accuracy, or credibility, or years in the field. Each psychic just as in business must determine their worth. It is not up to the public, clientele, or other psychics to determine and force them to charge specific fees according to what they believe psychics should charge for going rate. This is based on either their own ideas of what should be charged or the image and stigma of what psychics use to charge in the going rate of $25-$50 an hour. In today's economic situation in the business world and the business costs that are incurred this idea of fees from the past or what individuals or other psychics feel should be charged is not in their comprehension of actual costs and fees needed to be charged if the psychic is actually in business and has high expertise and such.

   f.) Some psychics do it as a hobby and are not an actual business paying taxes. Others do not claim it at all.

The actual fact in determination of fees that a individual psychic charges is based on these things, credibility, accuracy, years of expertise, years of hard work building their upstanding reputation fields of expertise, integrity, recognitions, awards, client testimonials, ethics, integrity, education and years in the field as well as actual events, or situations that have put them on the path they are on today.

No one psychic or individual client can tell another psychic what to charge, or not to charge or set the fees they feel everyone in this field should charge, because each and everyone is totally different. No two psychics are the same. They may claim the same ideas, gifts and abilities or expertise such as renowned, famous, or such, and look the same, but they are not.

To expect every psychic to charge the same price is the same comparison as fees charged by a medical doctor and a specialist. If you can't see the difference, or feel the difference, then you will never understand or know the difference.

Never ever compare one psychic to another. They are just as different as cultures, races and religions. To put all psychics in the same category or box is just a label and total misconception as well as stigma and image associated with psychics who are truly exceptional. If the individual psychic is good, they have built and established credible reputation, high accuracy, high gifts, full of honesty, integrity, hard work, and years in the field. This is what separates the very good from the ordinary or scammers.

Being a psychic is and doing psychic work is very hard. Some individual psychics make it look all glamorous or easy, when in fact this is very deceiving not only to other individual psychics but individual clients as well. It is not glamorous or easy, and the good comes with the bad in visions. You have to set your boundaries, and learn how to deal with the good and bad in customers, as well as visions. You have to learn to release it constructively, meditate, accept that sometimes you can't do anything but write it down to release it and don't go ballistic over some of the visions you may have. Accept them calmly and deal with them in a healthy manner. Charge reasonable fees that cover your expenses, and don't become one of the statistics of scammers giving psychics a bad name, because no one will every trust you again once you get that reputation. Protect your reputation, credibility and accuracy like it was gold, or very precious for it is and it will determine your gains, and goals you achieve in life.
