I recently tried to book a numerology session and it felt like a total scam :/ (lemmygrad.ml)

I had met this lady a few weeks ago who did numerology sessions on the side of her regular job. She had offered me a session at the time and I had refused. I ended up finding her number a few weeks later and had arranged to book a session.

I had been seeing all these numbers repeating, and thought, why not have some fun, right? I don't really believe in that kinda stuff, but it would be interesting to see what values people ascribe to things as random as numbers, and see what I think about it. An hour session was gonna come out to upwards of 200+ dollars 💀 .

I apologised saying I should've asked for a quote beforehand, but she tries to call me (I didn't pick up) and she then texts me that "people usually call me when they're in need and I recommend the session", but it's like...of course you would, you're making 200+ dollars off of me lol.

No disrespect to her, but I hate that everyday interactions are warped by profit 😓. I get everyone has to eat, but damn, wtf?

This is all based off my first and secondhand experience:

Some of these people are legit. Many of them are mostly frauds or total frauds. The thing is, it being $200 an hour isn't a clear indicator in either direction.

I've paid (adjusted for pre-COVID inflation) roughly the same amount to psychics and spirit mediums, and my experience ranged from "this was formative and life changing and nobody will believe half of it if I even tried", to "bits of this felt important and related to motifs or thoughts/feelings I've had, but overall questionable and possible even just good coincidence and guess work," to "this was a complete waste of money towards someone who looks at me with contempt as a score and nothing else."

I definitely am well aware of the risk of wasting my money when procuring such services. And, truth be told, I've had plenty of valuable experiences from friends or strangers that costed nothing. But, I also know that if I could hone my skills and reliably use such powers, I could see myself charging whatever was necessary in order to stay dedicated to the field and not have to work elsewhere.

This is some Gematria in my journal. It has helped illuminate a lot of things in my life.

If you're interested in Gematria, it's an easy way to engage with numbers without a middleman.
