My Psychic Experience
I grew up in the 90s when psychics were all over television. If it wasn’t a commercial, they were on talk shows. I personally did not believe they were real.

I walked in the door and a bell chimed. Right away in my skeptic mind I said, why would they need that? Shouldn’t they know when a customer comes in if they are psychic?

A station with a small table and two chairs. The table had a deck of tarot cards. Another section had a table with chairs with a crystal ball on it. And the third station were pillows on the floor with a Ouija board on the floor in the middle of the pillows. She took me to the section with the tarot cards. She told me sit and I did. She then asked me my name. I replied, “shouldn’t you know that?” She said that’s not how “it” works. I then told her my name and then she asked why I was there. I told her I wanted to know if there was a money-making idea that I could do outside…
