How to Prepare for a Psychic Reading

So the hour is actually worth your money

People spend more time choosing a reader than choosing a question. That is backwards. A gifted reader working on a vague question produces a vague answer, and then you blame the reader.

1. Decide what you will do with the answer

Before you book, know what you would do differently if the answer came back clearly. If nothing would change, you are not asking for information — you are asking for reassurance, and no honest reader can sell you that.

2. Write your question down in one sentence

Written questions are shorter and sharper than spoken ones. Cut any question that begins with "will he" and rewrite it as "what is actually happening between us". One sentence, one topic.

3. Bring the facts a reader cannot perceive

Dates, names, and what has already been said out loud. A reader sensing your energy does not know you moved cities in March or that he texted on the ninth. Two lines of context sharpen everything that follows.

4. Choose depth honestly

One or two focused questions need a short reading. A whole tangled situation needs a longer one. Paying for more words than you have questions for produces padding; paying for too few produces a first draft.

5. Clear the hour afterward

A good reading rearranges something. Do not schedule a meeting immediately after. Give yourself twenty quiet minutes to let it settle and to notice what stung — the sting is usually the useful part.

6. Come back with a follow-up

Most readers let you reply to your own reading. The second question, asked once the first has landed, is often better than the first.

Kiki delivers readings to a private account where you can reply and ask follow-ups, in three depths and two speeds. Book a reading at Kiki Aura Studio.
