    Same, my mother absolutely believes it, so much so that she refuses to do it for family and friends because she doesn’t want to see anything bad with anyone she knows.

    Same with reiki, she tried it on me once and asked if I felt anything, which I obviously didn’t so I said as much and her reply was “oh, well that’s probably because you don’t believe in it.”

    I love you mom, but that’s called a placebo.

      It’s weird how tarot cards can never actually predict anything useful isn’t it? You know like it would be really convincing if they could tell me what next week’s lottery numbers are.

      One of my sister’s friends is into this stuff and yet she still managed to get a speeding ticket, you’d have thought she’d seen that one coming.

        Thats a fundamental misunderstanding what is claimed to be offered. I dont even believe in this, but you have to understand how dumb that sounds right? Tarot doesnt claim to give you a minute by minute breakdown of every day for the next week.
