Q: Are horoscope readings by phone a good idea? Are they worth paying for... or am I better off sticking to the free newspaper or magazine horoscopes that I can find EVERYWHERE online or off? Is a personal horoscope more accurate? And if so... WHY so?

A: One of the most common questions we get about our psychic and astrological reviews is the difference between free readings (which are pretty much advertised everywhere) and paid or premium readings, which obviously involve a cost and that makes many callers and clients on a budget... pause. (often permanently!)

The truth is, you get what you pay for in this world... and while many people don't like to hear that, it's 100% true. Rarely are you going to find a free horoscope in a local paper that is really going to match your needs, or wants, or answer the REAL questions you have about your own life, in a profound or powerful way.

Of course they are nice to read, are often entertaining and a bit enlightening, and can even shed a general insight, or outline on the sort of stuff that may be happening in the background, or in the overarching universe that governs EVERYONE's life who shares your sign.

But to think that a free reading, or a broad overview of millions of people is going to SPECIFICALLY apply to you and your life, and is going to really add value, or really help you make an important decision, is a bit foolhardy for me. (and most others who really love to explore psychic, spiritual and astrological issues from a bigger perspective)

That said, horoscopes by phone are often a GREAT alternative for folks who can't afford a celebrity psychic or astrologer, or can't afford to pay someone in their own local community, and YET... aren't satisified with the sort of generic advice they find for free in print, or in the online digital world.

A good phone reading can be VERY inexpensive (often 10-20 dollars if you know where to look) and more important, they often come with great guarantees, as the phone astrological universe is a real business... and with that, contrary to the pessimistic perspective that most think that deserves, brings consumer protections to YOU that you simply can't get in the real world.

How so? As an example, I once had a celebrity reading with a well known astrologer and psychic medium who charges over $1000 for a short session. It was a disaster... not accurate, not good, and I was so disappointed, I wanted to ask for my money back. (but I was too embarrassed to do it, and I know I would have been laughed at if I did)

Conversely... MOST psychic phone services offer money back guarantees that range from GREAT to good, with most of the ones we use and recommend promising that if you aren't blown away... you don't have to pay. (a pretty good promise that takes away MOST of the fear or concern about getting scammed, ripped off or even simply disappointed like I was above)

Lastly, the BEST part about horoscope readings by phone is this:

The 3 C's.

* Cost. (as above)
* Convenience (as you don't have to leave your home... or even get out of bed..:-)
* Comfort (as it's much easier to share your thoughts, fears and feelings with someone on the phone, than going to see a stranger in person, face to face, in a foreign place!)

Of course there is more... but that is a good overview on phone readings are fun, enlightening, inspiring and often quite empowering... without needing to break your budget or leave your own home to boot!

In a perfect world, we could all trust everything we read.

People would be honest, and we could trust that what they told us to be true, WAS... with the utmost integrity.

Many people make important "calls" about making all sorts of purchases in the online space by reading reviews... and it still amazes me how many folks do NOT know how much of the online review universe operates.

For the purposes of THIS article, as most of us are big fans, and enjoy exploring the psychic and spiritual advise universe, I'd like to give you a few things to think about before you select your next psychic, medium or clairvoyant reading.

Why?

Well, consider this:

Are going to use a psychic review site to make an important decision about choosing a psychic, medium or clairvoyant?

Go ahead... but if you DO, know THIS to be true because it is:

The vast majority of psychic review sites are full of fluff at best... and at worst, totally fake, phony and even fraudulent ratings, write ups and reviews.

The really ironic part of this is, as a publisher and affiliate in the psychic, spiritual and paranormal space myself, it probably sounds odd to be taking exception at the exact industry that helps me do what I love for a living, right?

After all... much like the reviews and ratings I roll my eyes at because they are promoting a specific psychic or service without accurately representing their experience, I too derive my income from many of the same networks, intuitives and similar offers.

But HERE is the difference. (and why I believe ALL reviews of any sort should be held to the same standard, regardless of the niche, market or industry they are in)

1 - Transparency. Let me elaborate. As a psychic junkie and spiritual writer (and warrior..;-) myself... I have written thousands of articles and blog posts about psychic experiences that have been read by millions of people.

A small percentage of our articles are "reviews" of psychics we have used, tried and/or recommend.

However, know THIS to be true, because it is.

If I recommend a psychic or service, I get compensated for doing so. You deserve to know that, and any review site of ANY type that doesn't disclose this... should be avoided.

(the same applies when we have Google ads on our site, and you click on those ads... as online publishers, we get paid, often pennies... but paid none the less)

2 - Genuine passion for the field, or topic.

I can immediately tell when a review site is winging it, making it up or trying to appear like an authority, rather than being a genuine honest broker or passionate publisher in the topic they are tackling.

For example?

If a psychic review site tells you that a given clairvoyant is 99% accurate, or amazing beyond all description, or helped them save their marriage in 7 minutes or anything that sounds too good to be true... it probably is.

(and they are probably 100% fake and simply making up a recommendation, or review to make money, and did NOT really have the experience described)

Of course there are lots more signs that a review is bogus, but the very BEST recommendation is to use your own intuition, and natural BS meter. We recommend Psychic Source, for example... quite often, and have never had ONE single complaint over the years from any of our readers who have gotten a reading. Why? Because we don't claim they are super heros, or heaven sent angels who will see into your soul in 10 minutes or less - we recommend them because they are HONEST, empathetic, intuitives who can help you live the life you love... without the hype. (and if they don't offer you information and insight you can use, they won't charge you a thing)

Any psychic or medium who promises you the world for a price BEFORE you call? I'd avoid them like the plague... AND, the same applies to the folks who write about and recommend them. (as quite often, their motivations aren't as pure as they appear)

Aquarius - Productive

Of all the signs, Aquarius, you have the most opportunity to be productive this year. You have the opportunity to do things that you didn't think you could handle, surmount challenges you didn't think you would face, and complete projects you thought were endless. The more that you focus on making it easier to be productive this year, the more you will get done, showing others your potential and your ability to be the one who inspires others. Even in distracting times, make sure to stay on task.

Aries - Possibility

When you have a lot of dreams, Aries, it can be challenging to focus on just one. But this is a year of possibility, so maybe it's time to think about those dreams more often. You might want to consider whether holding them back is the right thing for you to do, for your happiness and for your stability. Think about what's possible, and think about what you could do to make certain ideas come to life. It's not the time to put aside childish dreams. This is a year for daydreaming and becoming open to what else might be realistic in your life. Write down every dream because it might be the next thing you accomplish.

Cancer - Commitment

The challenge for your life in 2013, Cancer, is that you have troubles committing. You have had times when you've stepped aside for legitimate reasons, but also for reasons that might not have been as truthful as you said they were. But you're ready now to take on the challenges of doing what you say you will do. True, there will be times when you might want to slip back into your old ways, but instead of falling back into old patterns, you need to focus on how you can support yourself in doing what needs to be done. You are the one who is ready to show everyone that you are capable and trustworthy this year. You have everything to gain from showing up.

Capricorn - Giving

In the past, Capricorn, it was challenging for you to give to others. This isn't because you're an unkind person, but your own personal needs were the priority. The good news is that you can continue to support yourself while giving to others. All you need to do is to focus on what you CAN give in a particular moment. Sometimes, you may still need to step back from others, but the more you can give of yourself, the more you will receive in return. Take time to think about how you can offer your gifts and abilities to others. Even the smallest gifts can make big differences in the lives of others. You just need to step a little outside of your comfort zone, and realize that others will return the favors.

Gemini - Balance

While your nature, Gemini, might be to focus on doing as much as possible, this year you need to find your point of balance. This might not look like a typical work-life balance, however. You need to throw away what everyone else seems to think balance looks like - perfection. It's not about always having things perfectly measured, but that you need to think about how you are overstretching yourself in some areas, while not stretching yourself far enough in others. The more you can stop and take stock of what you are doing, the more you can see when things need to be rearranged.

Leo - Caution

No one wants to hear they are going to have troubles, Leo, so don't think of 2013 as this sort of year. Instead, think about this year as being a time when thinking about the next step becomes crucial for the outcomes you want. Instead of rushing to do something or to say something, stop and think hard about why you are making each decision. When you do, you will find another answer or action might be necessary in that moment. You may not always have the right answers, and sometimes you might still have reactions that are out of place or that are unhelpful, but the more you can stop to think, the more you will get the results you desire.

Libra - Strength

Libra, you already consider yourself to be a strong sign, someone who is able to do more than the average person and face more than others might be willing to face. But 2013 is a time of testing your resolve. To find out if you are being strong in an effective way, it's helpful to think about how you might be approaching certain situation in your life. Are you confusing strength with the act of not saying what's on your mind? If so, then it might be time to reassess this way of living. Sometimes, strength comes not from being silent or composed, but from being emotional and open. Others will respond to you when you are clear about where you are at.

Pisces - Stability

The bright side of 2013 is that stability is the guiding force, Pisces. In the past, when you have felt unstable, you may have been drawn to taking large steps to correct the situation. Though this is certainly helpful in some instances, look at this year as finding smaller ways to right your course. Think about how you might be able to create a steadier outcome, than one that is the direct opposite of what was already happening. When you do this, you create an opportunity to use less energy to get what you really way. Stability isn't boring, either. Instead, it allows you to be more grounded in your self and in your path in the world.

Sagittarius - Decisions

Though every moment might seem to present a new decision, Sagittarius, realize that it's not always that simple. Your direct manner and your ability to be decisive has certainly helped you, but it can also cause you to be less effective in the thinking process. Decisions that are well informed come from sitting and thinking about the situation, and what you want the result to be. While there are times when snap decisions are the best actions, there are other times when the impact of your decision is much larger than it appears in the moment. The time has come for you to decide well, as opposed to checking another decision off your list.

Scorpio - Integrity

When you first see the idea of integrity, Scorpio, what does it mean to you? Does it mean that you need to act well or that you need to act in a more positive manner? Stopping to think about where your intentions line up with your actions is a great way to begin this new way of living in 2013. The more you can focus on the ways in which you make decisions that support your beliefs, the more you can find successful outcomes. You're not a person who necessarily acts outside of ethical considerations, but this year, it's important that you don't stray far from the rules of society. You want to make sure you're doing things that are right, rather than things that are easier. Others are watching you.

Taurus - Conflict

Most of the time, Taurus, you have a keen ability to navigate conflict well, but during this year, your patience may be tested. You might find yourself in situations that were not of your own actions, but they still impact you. To ensure you are making the best decisions, you will want to focus on finding the source of the conflict. At times, this thought process might lead back to you and to something you've said or done. While your intentions may have been good, realize that you are not the only person that matters in an interaction. By stopping to take responsibility, you can create a peaceful year, one in which you learn more about who you are.

Virgo - Completion

With all of the things you have taken on in the past few years, Virgo, it may begin to feel like you're getting nowhere. You've done the things you've needed to do, but what about those special projects you've left behind? 2013 is the perfect year for finally clearing off your literal and proverbial desk. Look at your calendar to see how you can fit in the things you've said were important and that were something that you would do. Follow through on your promises and you'll end the year with a sense of accomplishment and pride. Additionally, you'll find you've set yourself up for a time of even greater productivity in the following year.

Your high personal standards are important and you need to continue to give your best every day.

The romantic Scorpio loves to give their partners and friends the world.

In 2013, you need to stop making these promises, because you just disappoint others, and they will trust you less. They still love you; it is just that you keep promising more than you can deliver.
