I have tried over 30 psychics on Etsy alone, and from my experience, while there are only a few total frauds who will give you a script and tell you are cursed compared to other platforms, most are semi-legit and amateur readers with "some" ability--and by some I mean they can pick up current energies and feelings or thoughts but their predictions almost NEVER come to pass, at least in my case.
Some readers have already been mentioned and I'm sharing my own insights as well...
SimoneIntuitive. This girl has some sort of gift, but her gift stops at picking up only the present. When it comes to actual predictions she sugarcoats and fails miserably to give accurate timelines. She also used a template at times--gave similar intro to me and a friend.
Oracle Indigo. I believe she does have a gift. She was around 70% accurate for me when I asked her three questions. She got two right and one off. However, second time I've tried her, I wasn't feeling connected. Don't know what to think...
Delilah/Queen Of Wands. I find her to be on the same caliber with Simone Intuitive. She picked some details about me and my love life accurately but nothing came to pass. I have been told the same thing by at least three other members so seems like future timing isn't her strength.
Bliss Medium/Krishna (Quit/Banned from Etsy). This woman is a great spiritualist can make you feel a crazy connection at first but can't really predict the future. People kept going back to her because she is an empath and quite supportive but has little to none ability to predict the future. All others who I've contacted her regarding future predictions told me the same.
Margaret/Dryecraft. I know she has mixed reviews in another forum but she was accurate for me for the most part and her spell worked. She may have two or more accounts on Etsy at the same time and she also goes by the name "Anna" which I find odd but nonetheless I was happy with her services. But something in her energy and personality is putting me off from trying her again.
SelasSelene/DevilVamp. She used to give free readings on allexeprts.com before the site closed down. Anyway, nice lady with a deep and genuine interest in the occult and divination but her reading, despite her honest intentions was way off. I asked her if my ex was dating someone new after me (back then) and she didn't pick up there was a new young girl in the picture and also told me things would turn around and I will also meet another guy but that never happened.
ReadingsByRonni. She is gifted but she has a def attitude problem. While she has picked up some specifics about me and my past relationship e.g the fact that my ex was intimated by my looks (he had hinted this quite a few times) the prediction was off and she also failed to pick up that he was dating someone new. When I kindly told her she got nasty and accused me that I'm undermining her skills and work. Shame...
Vanessa/ButterFlyHealiStudio. Her reading was detailed and she was a tad harsh but I guess she was right--my ex never came back. However, I do feel in my gut that me telling her it's been a few years since I last spoke to the guy has influenced her insight. Has anybody else tried her out? thinking of trying her again for other questions.
DevineSpirits. Good tarot reader but like most readers, not beyond 70% accurate for me. She got two questions right and mentioned a lot of details but the third question was way off. Nonetheless, I don't blame her. I haven't encountered a reader so far who gets all my questions right.
There was this JadeMoon lady and a few others that have closed down their shops. The latest reading I had was with EarthSkyFusion/Jane and it really resonated with me regarding the present but predictions are pending for mid-spring. Let's see...
Btw stay away from Derek and Amanda, and Randa Lynn. There are psychic wannabes with vague insight that use templates and make random predictions. There were a few readers from Pakistan and India that used to scam a lot of people but they finally
Will write a second part since this will be too long...
The beauty of Etsy is that members can contact each other and exchange opinions or share their readings and so if a psychic is a total fraud and scripter, their days on Etsy are numbered. I have noticed that every time I have left some reader on Etsy poor feedback indicating they were scammers and two others followed up with the same rating, the shop was closed down after a few days. Yay! Still, that doesn't stop old readers from coming back and creating a new account...sometimes you can tell by the way they write and describe their listings that they are "familiar" but not always.
Nonetheless, the platform is a harbor for amateur psychics who are on the "practice" mode and haven't perfected their skills or can't really predict the future. There are few ones that do this who have repeat clients and do this for a living.
