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.

Diana-Numerologist and Julia-Clairvoyance: As Psychic as Aunt Jemima: Review

After 10 months on the Net with very little business, the owners of Diana-Numerologist.com bought an email list with your name and birthdate so they could send your "Grand Study" to your mailbox free of charge. Diana's clone Julia-Clairvoyance.com shares word-for-word the same biography, the same server in the Netherlands and the same fee scale. Are they really British aristocrats slumming on the Net? Sylvia checked out both Diana and Julia for quality, price, and refund policies.
