Psychics are considered to be “seers” – they can foresee the future. They possess the ability of clairvoyance or clear vision to be able to see into the future using ESP or a sixth sense. Depending on the psychic, they may also possess clairaudience meaning psychic hearing or hearing in a paranormal manner. Claircognizance or knowingness allows a psychic to connect to the Universe and just know the answer. These are just a few “clairs” a psychic may possess.

A lot of people think psychics are phony or cannot give them a clear or proper answer. There is some truth to that. Some psychics may be phony and make things up. Some psychics may not be able to give the clients a clear answer. However, genuine psychics do exist. It is like any other trade, you may need to go through several bad ones to get to a good one. Also, not every psychic is right for every person. You can go to the best doctor in the world, but if he cannot cure you, he is of no use to you. On the other hand, you can just go to an ordinary doctor, and if he can cure you, then he is worth gold to you. The same theory applies for psychics. At the end of the day, you have to find the one that is right for you.

In addition to finding the right psychic, you also need to be able to ask them the right questions. Otherwise, you may not get a proper reading. When people come to a psychic, they generally have an issue that is hounding them or are looking for some information about how the future will turn out.

Here is an example of how you can frame the right question for the psychic:

Let’s say Mary has a question about her love life. She goes to a psychic and asks, “Tell me about my love life.” When you approach a psychic with a general question, you will get a general answer. It is like saying “I want food” which is too general of a statement.

However, Mary is already in a relationship with John.

When you first ask a psychic a question about a relationship, the first question they will ask you is “Is it about an existing relationship or a new relationship?” So, Mary can save some time by asking about Mary and John. It is like saying “I want to get some Italian food” instead of just asking for food.

Being specific about the question will save you some time.

For instance, asking “I would like to know more about the future potential of our relationship,” or “I would like to know why there is a communication problem between us.” Asking a specific question is like asking for a specific order. “I would like to get Linguini with White Clam sauce.”

Comparing the analogy, the two parties are John and Mary, or Linguini and White Clam sauce.

The next pertinent question is about timing. Do you want to know one week out in the future, one month or six months? Just asking about the future of a relationship does not say much. Maybe nothing will happen in a week, but in 3-6 months, you will talk about engagement.

So, coming down to our restaurant analogy, it would be “I would like to get Linguini with White clam sauce in the next 30 minutes” or maybe Wednesday of next week.

So, instead of going to a psychic and asking “tell me about my future,” think of what it would be to ask “John and I are seeing each other, where do you see this relationship in the next six months?” Do you think you will save both you and the psychic a lot of questions and get a clearer answer?

Now you have specified the following:

·         The two parties in the question

·         The query or information needed

·         The time-frame over which this information is expected

Just noting these 3 points will save you about 2-3 minutes for the reading. Learning to frame a proper question is an art. The more specific the question, the more specific the answer will be. Usually, a client has something specific in mind that he/she would like to know. However, they lack the knowledge to frame a proper question. This leads to a back and forth round of questions between the client and the reader. In order to save time and get the most out of your reading, frame specific questions. A precise question will get you a precise answer. You will have time to explore further in the area of your question based on the response you receive for your question.

A good psychic may often ask you a few questions about your question itself or re-frame your question so that you will get a more accurate response. Generally, a client is always looking for a specific response, but has some issues in framing a question properly. So, the next time you are looking for an accurate psychic reading, make sure you are armed with a good set of questions for the psychic.
