Is it better to get a reading from a psychic who uses tools like the Tarot, Astrology, Numerology or the I-Ching? Or do you prefer a reading from an intuitive who relies purely on their psychic gifts, whether it be Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Clairsentience or Mediumship (just to name a few). Not sure?<\/p>\n

Believe it or not this topic stirs up controversy between the psychics themselves! And, callers who have developed reading preferences over their years of experience consulting with psychics, often choose psychics by how they read – tools or no tools – and may even have a preference for which tools they do (or don’t use).<\/p>\n

So why the debate? There are psychics who believe that a true psychic reading involves only the vision, insight and understanding a spiritually gifted reader can bring to a caller.\u00a0 Some customers call these psychics ‘purists.’ Yet other customers wouldn’t dream of getting a reading without tools being used. It basically boils down to a matter of preference.<\/p>\n

Read what our California Psychics have to say, and let us know what you think!<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Psychic Gina Rose ext. 9500<\/a>, <\/strong>who also teaches intuitive awareness,is a staunch supporter of ‘tool free’ readings. A psychic using tools is “like Picasso painting by numbers,” she describes. She believes that until a psychic “develops blind faith in their own guides or gift, they will never ever, fully utilize and develop their natural born instincts.<\/p>\n

“The only part of the equation that is absolutely necessary,” says Jonathan ext. 9601<\/strong><\/a>, a psychic with 30 years of experience (who generally reads without tools), “is psychic ability. The rest is personal preference.” “I predominantly use the Tarot to check if my intuition is running in tandem with the outcome stated in the Tarot deck,” explains <\/strong>Althea ext. 9582<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>who also gets birth dates from callers to delve into certain traits astrologically. She may even use dream interpretation to help them decipher hidden messages. “I believe that all of these tools and learned information, coupled with my own intangible psychic abilities, help give a collective reading that is the marriage of my total skill set.”<\/p>\n

TeriLynn ext. 9625<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>adds, “I use Tarot cards as a tool because I see the time and hear the circumstances and feel the ambiance of the event more clearly than when I do not use tools.”<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

So…what do you think?! Tools or no tools?
