Jenna's Higher Prices at AboutAstro.com

AboutAstro.com, home of "Jenna Astrologer," a heavily-advertised online bot offering free 2013 horoscopes identical for everyone, updated the site since I last visited, so I recently rewrote my Jenna review. Jenna is still fictional and doesn't give refunds, but here is what's new:

• Instead of being a total joke, the 2013 free reading was partially rewritten to contain some accurate astrology, such as the mention of Uranus square Pluto. But the "103-day transit" that is predicted to be so lucky for you, which doesn't exist in astrology, is still there.
• AboutAstro.com now boasts a team of astrologers, and gives their "bibliographies" (the correct word is "biographies"). They are real astrologers, but their contribution to AboutAstro.com is old information they wrote for astrology software programs years ago. "Jenna's " biography is not included. That is because she is and always was fiction.
•  The price of "Jenna's" "second reading" -- the one the free one pushes you to buy -- rose from $60 to $80. It is totally computerized. $80 is an insane price for a computerized horoscope. You can get an equivalent computerized natal reading or compatibility reading absolutely free from Cafeastrology.com. Or for $14.95 you can get several kinds of readings, same as Jenna's, from astrology.com, because that's where "Jenna" got her material.
• AboutAstro.com's free reading now says you can contact a real astrologer instead of Jenna, but you'd better act fast to learn the exact dates you must act to get the money, status and true soulmate which "Jenna" predicts (for everyone) in 2013. And of course her $80 reading, because it's computerized, will be the fastest. 
• On the directly-accessed AboutAstro.com homepage there is no Jenna! Maybe "she" is on her way out!

Seek a real astrologer here: FindAnAstrologer.com. Don't search FindAnAstrologer by city; that will be frustrating. Do a search through this link, which shows all the astrologers. For $80 or a bit more you can get a reading from a real astrologer whose references you can check and who will answer all your questions.

Online Numerology Readings: Why You Should Never Pay

Did you know the word "numerology" wasn't invented until 1907? The numerology we find for free online is very basic, very American and too new to provide you with detailed information and ancient wisdom. It can be fun, but beware if you're thinking of paying for instant readings. Read the article.

Horoscope Review: NumerologySecret.com and Eric McCallum

Numerology is catching on, and new to the scene (since October 2012) is NumerologySecret.com with master numerologist Eric McCallum, a computer impersonated by a handsome model, who told me, and will tell you, that like movie stars and billionaires you can change your life because you're special and your numbers are rare and your 88 days of once-in-a-lifetime luck just happen to be coming up. There's no secret, no Eric McCallum, and no such thing as a "Temporal Pinnacle" in numerology or astrology, but this site uses multiple strategies to try to convince you otherwise, plus the sleaziest "discount" trick I've ever seen. Here's my review.

Horoscope Review: Life-Answers.com Numerology by Jill St. James

Numerology is the new big thing in the commercial psychic world. It's simple; it can be totally computerized; the meanings of the numbers are fixed, not like planets, so if those are correct you can't call 'em fake; and businesses can pretend they're run by a master numerologist like "Jill Saint James," whose face used to appear on the Life-Answers.com website for several years, but is now replaced with photos of models ecstatic and "OMG" over their "shocking" computerized numerology readings -- which I discovered are identical to those given by Horoscope-Authority.com. Here's my review and a suggestion of a better choice for free online numerology readings if you aren't worried about giving over your private info.

Horoscope Review: HoroscopeAuthority.com

HoroscopeAuthority.com's Priscilla is advertising free readings. Her Life Reading is fairly cheap at $40. Should you give in and get one for 2013?

Romantic Breakups Under the Sign of Pisces

I expose fake psychics, but also write articles treating other aspects of astrology. For this article I researched the timing of romantic breakups and divorce filings. They peak under the sign of Pisces. I wondered if the Sun in Pisces might encourage breakups, or if it was something else.

Horoscope Review: AskNow.com Call-In Psychics, the Most Pathetic Reading Ever

Heavily advertised with a colorful illustration of a gypsy and crystal ball, AskNow.com was co-founded by fake psychic Sylvia Browne, who disgraced herself for years on The Montel Williams Show and continues to do so entertaining at casinos. I phoned AskNow anyway to get my free 5-minute reading. The hard sell and incompetence, well, you've just got to read about it to believe it.
