Get all the information before you agree to free psychic readings or free psychic advice
. The free readings are a way to get you to talk to a psychic to see if you like him/her and hopefully you'll stay past the free period.
This is no different than a store offering free gifts or sale prices. As soon as we see or hear the term, free psychic advice, you automatically think scam. As long as you know what the cost is going to be before you start, you shouldn't get scammed. If you're getting a free psychic reading by phone, you can hang up whenever you want to.
Many times people go to psychics when they are in crisis. They are looking for someone to help them make a decision or give them confirmation that the decision they made was right. If you are a believer, a psychic may be able to give you the direction you need. But it doesn't mean that you have to give them all your hard earned money. Use an offer for free psychic advice to get to know the psychic and see if they are sensing your situation. You don't want to waste time and money talking to a psychic who isn't feeling your vibes.
If you get a free online reading, the reading will be short and a tease. You should still get some information out of the reading or else you should try another site. This is not different than if you went to a store and you couldn't find what you needed. Make sure you read the fine print. Sometimes the company doing the promotion of free time will require you to sign up for their newsletter or some other way to get your name on their list.
A free phone reading may consist of giving you the first three minutes free. You may have to give your credit card number upfront so that if you go over, you will be billed. That allows the psychic to continue to give advice and not lose the flow because you have to give out your number later. Sometimes the free minutes may be subtracted from your total minutes with the psychic. You can find all this out at first, before you agree. Just don't be so frantic for answers that you aren't paying attention.
Any kind of reading should ideally be used as entertainment. You should make your own decisions, but it wouldn't hurt to make sure the spirits are behind you.
