–Oddly enough you know this is coming from someone who’s into Tarot and practices types of heathen rituals. Psychic phenomenon as is practiced in most true Pagan belief (and not by hacks making money) is not something where you can “see and talk to the dead” or “tell your future”. The dead don’t really hang around and want to talk to us. The B. to the S. Also, the future, per what most of my faith believes (though you are a skeptic and can read what you may into it), is not predestined and cannot be read out like a chart. Psychic understanding is figuring out your potential and what kind of person you are. (There’s also a meditative/zen aspect of this as well.)

He was *very* good at what he did. He also seemed good at getting his producers to filter in people who were either true believers or only /somewhat/ skeptical. I doubt you would have made the cut. After a few shows I noted this was the case and couldn’t stand watching this snake oil salesman.
