About Me

The skeptic behind the blog.

Who I Am

My name is Sarah. I’m 38. I’m an accountant. I have two kids, a tabby cat named Mango, and a small apartment with a blue front door and a kitchen that’s too small and somehow perfect.

A year ago, if you’d told me I’d be running a blog about psychic readings, I would have laughed in your face. I was the person who rolled her eyes at horoscopes. Who changed the subject when someone mentioned Mercury retrograde. Who thought the entire psychic industry was a scam preying on vulnerable people.

Then my marriage ended, and I became one of those vulnerable people. And what I found when I reached for help in the darkest moment of my life surprised me enough that I spent the next six months researching, testing, and documenting everything about the online psychic industry.

Why This Blog Exists

When I started looking for information about online psychic platforms, I was shocked by how useless most review sites were. They fell into two categories:

  1. Obvious shills:Sites that gave every platform 5 stars and read like they were written by the platform’s marketing team. No nuance, no criticism, no real experience.
  2. Dismissive skeptics: Sites that called every psychic a fraud without ever actually trying a reading. Lots of confidence, zero firsthand knowledge.

Neither helped me make an informed decision. I wanted to find someone who had actually used these platforms — spent real money, had real readings, tracked real results — and could tell me honestly what to expect. That person didn’t seem to exist.

So I became that person.

Over six months, I spent $2,347 on 47 readings across six major platforms. I kept a spreadsheet. I tracked predictions. I followed up at one month and three months to see what came true. And then I wrote it all down here, as honestly as I could.

This blog exists because I wanted to create the resource I wished I’d had on that Tuesday night in October — something real, from someone real, with real numbers and real stories.

What I Believe Now

I’m not a true believer. I don’t think every psychic is legitimate. I know cold reading is real. I know the Barnum effect is real. I know some people in this industry are predatory.

But I also know that some things happened in my readings that I can’t explain with those frameworks. Specific predictions that came true. Information that couldn’t have been guessed. Insights that changed the trajectory of my divorce and my life.

I exist somewhere between skeptic and believer — in the uncertain middle ground where most honest people end up when they actually engage with this world rather than judging it from the outside. I’m okay with not having all the answers. That’s actually one of the most important things the readings taught me.

My Commitment to Honesty

Everything on this blog is based on my personal experience. I paid for every reading myself, on my own accounts, with my own money, before I ever considered turning this into a blog.

I do now have affiliate relationships with some of the platforms I review, which means I may earn a small commission if you sign up through my links. You can read the full details on my disclosure page. But I want to be clear: my rankings and reviews were established before any affiliate relationship existed, and I’ve been just as honest about the platforms I don’t love as the ones I do.

If a platform is bad, I’ll tell you. If a reading was a waste of money, I’ll tell you. If I got scammed (I did, once, on Kasamba), I’ll tell you. This blog only has value if you can trust it, and you can only trust it if I’m honest.
