We have all seen how psychic readings are generally portrayed in the popular media. Mysterious women (usually gypsies) hold audience with those who seek knowledge of the future and use a variety of divination tools to provide answers that are often even more mysterious than the diviner herself. One of the most popular portrayals of these so-called "fortune tellers" involves the use of a crystal ball, into which the seer will peer in an attempt to glean specific information requested by the subject of the divination - usually a paying customer.

We have all seen how psychic readings are generally portrayed in the popular media. Mysterious women (usually gypsies) hold audience with those who seek knowledge of the future and use a variety of divination tools to provide answers that are often even more mysterious than the diviner herself. One of the most popular portrayals of these so-called "fortune tellers" involves the use of a crystal ball, into which the seer will peer in an attempt to glean specific information requested by the subject of the divination - usually a paying customer.

This view of psychic readings is little more than a stereotypical caricature of the process and people involved, however, as the field of such readings encompasses far more than gazing into cloudy glass balls. For those who believe in such things, a psychic reading offers a wealth of information about a knowledge seeker's past, present, and future. Gifted psychics use a variety of means to read an individual, including tarot cards, palmistry, astrology, numerology, and aura reading - to name but a few of the more common. A practicing psychic may have more than one area of expertise, and may even go beyond the well-known varieties of readings and use such lesser known methods as distant readings, psychometry, or past life readings.

Like Pythagoras, St. Augustine later came to the conclusion that everything in the universe contained mathematical connections that could be ascertained through a careful application of both the mind and spirit. Even after the First Council of Nicaea proclaimed numerology a departure from the Christian faith in 325 A.D., and subsequently included it in their list of unapproved beliefs (alongside astrology, divination, and other supposed occult practices), there remained proponents who assigned spiritual significance to certain numbers.

To obtain detailed information about your life, these astrologists insist that you need a personalized horoscope, which also includes information derived from the moon and the ascendant (or rising sign). The sun sign can only reveal the way in which your life force expresses itself in your environment and daily life. All three signs together are believed to provide the psychic with details that provide information about you from birth to death, creating the most complete profile for an accurate psychic reading of your horoscope.

For example, in one system the number 1 indicates the positive traits of an inventive, independent, courageous, strong leader. It also indicates the negative traits of aggressiveness, impulsiveness, egoism, and willfulness. A similar dichotomy is seen when evaluating the meanings of the other numbers. This can provide those who perform numerological psychic readings broad parameters for reading a person's character and future.

In that respect, astrological psychic readings differ from many other psychic attempts at fortune telling. It primarily allows you a greater perspective that enables you to better understand yourself and your potential. So the next time you pick up the newspaper or log onto the internet to see your daily horoscopes just keep in mind that its merely guidance rather than what will happen in your life and shouldnt be taken to the heart!
