Want to hear something you may not believe? In 2 decades of psychic research, readings and writing on the psychic phenomena, I’ve had countless readings. Many of them really astonishingly good.

Many of them, REALLY bad! And the interesting thing is, when I go back and look at the difference between the 2, PRICE is rarely an important factor. In other words, I’ve had amazing readings which would fit anyone’s budget, and I’ve had readings that were so expensive only a handful of people could afford them. (some of these were "gifted" to me based on professional courtesy)

So what are my top tips for getting a GREAT psychic reading without blowing your budget?

Tip #1: Expand Your Horizons

Many people bring a psychic "prejudice" to their search for a reader that isn’t necessary or productive. For example, they see someone in a run down shop or a 3 line ad in their local shoppers guide and simply ASSUME that the reader is going to be a rip off, or a fraud.

While this CAN occasionally be true, I’ve gotten some of my best readings from the sorts of psychics MANY of my more "elitist" friends would pass by without a second glance. (and my very best in 20 years….from a psychic who had a booth SO small and in such a remote location that most people I know wouldn’t even have made the trip to begin with)

Tip #2: Get Prepared

This is especially important when speaking to psychics who charge in time increments. Many people have no idea what they are going to say, or ask….or have no real notion of what direction they’d like the reading to take. When you don’t have an idea of what you want to ask…..or the kind of questions you’d like addressed, it becomes very easy for an otherwise affordable reading to get VERY expensive…..really fast!

In other words, what you could ask, and have answered in 20 or 30 minutes and be VERY satisfied with the quality of the reading, others drag out for 45 or 60 minutes, simply because they didn’t get themselves organized in advance.

My recommendation is to take 5 minutes, and WITHOUT over thinking it….simply write down 5-10 key questions, concerns or central ideas you want addressed. Once the reading begins, just let the reader know the areas you want to focus, and if you feel things start to drift a bit into other areas you are NOT so interested in addressing, you simply move back to the next question on your list and bring things BACK into focus! (super easy….and to be honest with you, MOST psychics appreciate this as well!)
