Here's my backstory if you haven't yet read any of my other 65+ Yelp reviews of psychics: I'm an…read moreR&D & consulting scientist/engineer w/a grad degree in the sciences, and a mystic, spiritual teacher/healer & intuitive. I've had cold readings from 300+ psychics in my life. Since I'm a mystic, my life is filled with Divine love & grace; b/c my mind is calm & quiet, and b/c I am open and very well-grounded (these latter 2 qualities are essential for a good reading), it's very easy for a good psychic to read me, but a poor psychic won't see much b/c there are no dramas in my life to cause big blips on the psychic radar screen.
Please note that when I visit psychics, I'm NOT seeking help w/problems, nor w/wishes, nor seeking answers or advice, nor spiritual guidance. Rather, I visit them because God/Source/Supreme Heart asks me to & b/c it's fun to connect w/supernatural readers.
BTW, I'm VERY good at setting boundaries w/people like pushy salespeople & unethical psychics who might try to con/upsell me. So, when reading my reviews, it may be VERY HELPFUL to bear in mind what I wrote above, b/c your own experience w/a psychic may differ from mine; your mileage may vary! Also, my reviews of psychics are for readings only, and never for extra services they might offer (e.g., healings, clearings, guidance, etc.).
This review is for a telephone reading that I received on June 24, 2003 from Cyndi when she was living and working as a psychic in Sedona, AZ, and I was living in the US Northeast. Cyndi was a total stranger to me at the time of the reading; I had found her via her website, after a recommendation from an ex-GF. I called her on the morning of the reading using the phone # on her website to ask for a phone reading, and by early PM, she was giving me a 1-hour phone psychic/tarot/astrology reading. Cyndi is now located in Virginia Beach, VA, and I have an appointment to have another reading with her tomorrow (I will update my review if needed post-reading...)
From a reviewer's point of view, the great value of the fact that Cyndi delivered my reading back in 2003 (and sent me a tape of the reading, which I transcribed and later put in my database) is that of hindsight and perspective: the fact that 17 years have passed since the reading gives me a great opportunity to assess the accuracy of the many predictions that she made for my future in the latter half of the reading, despite the fact that I'd cautioned her that I was not very interested in hearing predictions for the future (aka fortune-telling), since the future is very difficult to predict accurately - with the exception of a very few events that are fixed in time and space - due to human free will & retrocausality.
As I always do w/readings, this was a totally cold reading: I told Cyndi, prior to the start, only my full name and date/place of birth, along with the region/state in which I lived, which was all that she asked for.
First, let me say up front that I believe that delivering an accurate psychic reading over the phone is far more difficult than is the case during an in-person reading, because it can be much more difficult at a distance to "connect" with the client, and there is no opportunity to touch them (such as on the hand or arm while examining their palms, etc.) or one of their belongings in order to employ psychometric methods.
In the first half of the reading, the general life reading portion, where she was describing my general life history and then-current life with specifics and in detail, her accuracy rate was well over 93%. This is very impressive!
For the second half of the reading, despite my earlier-mentioned caution that I did not expect predictions for the future due to the attendant inherent obstacles that I mentioned above, Cyndi nonetheless insisted upon offering me a number of detailed predictions for the future. I recently perused a text transcript of the reading (that I had years ago transcribed from the audio tape, long ago transferred to audio CD) that she sent me in 2003, and noticed, with the benefit of hindsight from the perspective of reviewing it 17 years later, that her numerous and quite-specific and detaled predictions for my future had an accuracy rate of over 86%, which is incredibly impressive.
I can also say that Cyndi is one of a very few psychics whom I have ever encountered who is able to deliver a very accurate reading over the telephone for a client whom she has never met in person. This is a rare gift.
Overall, an amazing reading from a highly-capable and competent reader! I am looking forward to my upcoming second phone reading tomorrow, 17+ years after the first.
Postscript, circa 8/12/2020: I had mentioned above that I was scheduled to have a followup phone psychic reading with Cyndi the next day, on Aug. 7. That reading went every bit as well as I had expected it would, and I found her detailed insights to be very accurate. So, my rating is still 5 stars! Amazing!
