A Secret Society of Psychics? Where Have All the Good Ones Gone?

Is there a secret society of psychics giving each other readings and making secret predictions about the world we live in? 

Many people don’t believe in psychics, even though it’s proven that the phenomena does exist. One such psychic phenomenon that has been well documented are cases of twins on opposite sides of the world and one knew the other had unexpectedly passed away. We know through science and maybe our own six sense when we knew something was going to happen before it did; you knew who was on the other line before caller ID; or we knew something very bad was going to happen because of the pit in our stomachs, that this is real on some level. 

Readers, or psychics who read people, is a very different class of psychic ability. Is this part of it real? Are there only one or two out there that only the elite can afford, or maybe hidden away in a church as a prophet? When we seek out a real psychic to help us, we’re looking for spiritual guidance or a medium to connect to the spirit world that we can undoubtly trust.
 
Author of 20 books including “The Scandal of Scientology” and “The 100 Top Psychics and Astrologers in America 2014″ Paulette Cooper may have came up with a brilliant idea of finding 100 psychics and astrologers (The Top that are real, accurate and the top in their fields.) When asked how she picked these psychics and other spiritualist her answer revealed the secret to finding a real psychic isn’t just randomly picking the first one you see. In her words “We started our search for the top by selecting people who had already been sufficiently successful to appear on major shows (Oprah, Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, etc.), or in major publications (The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal, etc.), or had won impressive awards (Lifetime TV’s Psychic Challenge show) or special recognition (by a columnist for a major newspaper). 

No other group of psychics and astrologers has ever been as thoroughly researched. We spent months going through thousands of websites, newspapers and magazine articles, radio programs, books, videos, YouTube and more. We discarded hotline phone psychics (or phone-y psychics) and storefront psychics. Instead, we focused on people who pleased enough clients to get full time work, mostly on word of mouth or top media exposure.

After choosing the ones who seemed promising, we Googled them (well past the first page), reviewed them elsewhere online, and even criminally checked some to see if they had ever been arrested or were using aliases. The hand-chosen few who remained then answered an extensive questionnaire, and were given follow-up phone calls, e-mail questions, and even personal visits. No one paid to be in this book or its website. Those who survived this rigorous and impartial selection process—and had interesting stories to tell—are included here with full interviews.”

Most people don’t have hundreds of hours to dedicate to researching and finding the right psychic. Many people go through a lot of money, time and fake psychics to find a real one and as some people put it, it was like finding a needle in the hay stack. 

We asked all the psychics we interviewed why they feel they were chosen or why are they one of the top 100 psychics. Here are a few answers; ”One of the reasons I believe I am one of the best 100 psychics, able to stand with these other amazing psychics is because I’m the only person in this field doing the work that I specialize in. In addition to being a celebrity psychic and medium I am also a sex psychic. I’ve had a very interesting life doing what I do. I could tell you stories!  Mostly I love what I do and I am passionate about it. I really want to help people, and help them gain control over their present state. Whether it’s their sex lives, the lack of a sex life, career, family or any of the tons of worry, problems and extreme joys we have in life in the end it’s not just about a job and making a living, it’s about honing in the talent that each one of us has, but perfecting it to help others. I will continue to learn and grow so that I can help others. I believe out of the thousands of psychics out there most are not aimed at helping change the world, so Paulette did a fabulous job of finding accurate, helpful, ethical psychics for the book.” Shares the Celebrity Sex Psychic. 

Melissa Bacelar a pet psychic and owner of Wylder’s Pet Store in Studio City, CA was also listed in the back of the book as one of the top psychics along with some of the biggest names in Hollywood when it comes to psychics: Chip Coffee, John Edward, and Allison DuBois. Melissa says of being chosen for the book “I have worked with celebrities animals and I also have a huge following of dog rescuers and animal advocates.  I do a lot of my work for free or for charities.  This has been recognized and I believe working with Anderson Cooper, Gene Simmons, Shannon Tweed and other high profile people has helped me get recognized so I can help more animals and humans live in harmony.”

 
Christopher Golden says “The best thing about being selected to be featured in “The Top 100 Psychics in America” is that it is an honor.  To have someone who is qualified and skeptical vet you – and then to come back and determine you are one of the best – well I suppose I feel sort of vindicated.  In truth the only person who needs to recognize you ultimately is yourself.  However, being recognized by your peers, to have passed a rigorous system of judging whether you’re any good and to have come out with high marks, it’s an honor.  I keep the book on my desk. And on days where I’m getting worn out or feel like I’m about to lose my voice, I glance over at the book at it gives me a boost of inspiration to keep going.  I guess I feel lucky to be a part of it.
When he was asked what he is known for, “Unfortunately I’m well known for being in a “psychic to the stars”.  However, most of my clients are not stars.  What I actually do well is to fix broken relationships.  However, the media is not as interested in that as whatever rumor is going around about a rock star or an actress seeking my guidance.  Easily 95 percent of my clients are neither rich nor famous.  And I want people to know that.  All any of us have is how we feel.  And the only thing that matters in one’s life is the love relationships in it.  But being able to help people make improvements on those areas are what I prefer to be known for,” and his prediction for the book? “Most psychics will tell you that it is hard, if not impossible to predict anything having to do with our own future.  For some reason the gift works better on matters that are objective than those which are subjective.  And because I’m in the book, I’m not sure I have a clear psychic hit as to how well it will do.  But based on 25 years of giving psychic readings I can tell you this – the cream tends to rise to the top.  Here we have a very well researched edition, authored by one of the most credible skeptics in print today – someone who was bold enough to take on Scientology long before there was anyone to take cover behind.  It stands to reason that, with the demand for psychics being at an all time high, and the psychic industry being flooded with phonies and frauds, more than ever before, the public seems to demand a book such as “The Top 100 Psychics in America”.  It will find its audience and long be remembered and referred to as the quintessential resource on distinguishing the pretenders from the contenders.  This is a book whose time has come.  People will love it and it has the power to change the psychic industry for the better.”

The very first story you’ll read about in the book is astrologer Shelley Ackerman, who has a background as an singer-actress and a Rabbi’s daughter. We asked her to comment on a recent event, the missing Malaysian plane;  ”I wish airlines would check with a reputable astrologer who could cast a chart for the moment a plane is scheduled to depart and make adjustments when necessary. Flight 370 left with Neptune, the planet of disappearances and deception right at the bottom of the chart. It’s as nasty a position as can be for a flight. A departure of 20 minutes later could have made all the difference in the world.” Can we go back to a time, where astrologers were consulted before making every major decision including travel plans? 

One day we will be able to reach within ourselves to find the inner truths about our own existences and our futures. But until that day comes we will seek out psychics, priests, therapists and anyone who can help us lead better lives. Psychics are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to personal development, and these top 100 will help you get there.
