Are you wondering how to get the most out of an online psychic reading? You’re already ahead of the game! Many people simply book a session and hope for the best, but there are plenty of ways to prepare to ensure you have the best experience possible.

Here are 10 ways that you can prepare for a psychic reading:

1. Pick the right time to get a reading

If you’re considering a psychic reading, take a moment to think about the timing.
Many people feel the sudden urge to book a reading when faced with unexpected or challenging circumstances. But take your time when booking a reading. Allow yourself time to process the situation and then choose the best time for your session. When you’re feeling rushed or stressed, you can misinterpret the information you receive and make hasty decisions

2. Decide on the focus of the reading

Firstly, think about the reasons for getting a reading. Decide if you want to look at your life overall or focus on one or more areas.  Readings may be limited in time so picking multiple areas may prevent you from digging deeper and may require a follow up session.

If it is your first reading you may want to decide on getting a general reading first and then go deeper in follow up readings.

For those of you wanting more specific insights, I would recommend picking one or two of the following topics for the reading, love, career, finances, health, relationship, travel, home, spiritual growth, talents or gifts.

3. Pick the best type of reading

Once you have decided on the intention behind the reading, you need to consider which type of reading you want. 

All psychic use their intuition abilities during the sessions but they often use a combination of psychic tools. There are is a many different types of psychic readings to chose from, these include astrology, numerology, tarot or oracle cards and palm reading.

None of the reading types are better than the other, they can all channel the same information. It is important that you pick the type of psychic reading which resonates with you the most.

4. Find the right psychic for you

The next step is to find a psychic that you feel comfortable with and trust right from the start.
This is one of the most important steps and can take some time. But I suggest you take your time and learn about the psychic’s background and specialties.

You can check out the psychic’s websites, blogs, and social media profiles to learn more about their personality and areas of focus.

Reading testimonials from previous clients can also help you understand how the psychic performs their readings and interacts with their clients.

Another great way is to ask family, friends, or acquaintances who have visited a psychic before for recommendations.

5. Prepare a list of questions in advance

To prepare for the session, I recommend writing down any question you want answered. Start this process at least two or three days before the reading.


This gives you enough time to come up with as many questions as possible and reflect on which aspect of your life you have most questions about. This process may surprise you. It is common to think you need one particular reading but end up deciding to focus on a completely different area of your life.

On the day before the reading take time to re-write the questions in order of preference on a clean sheet of paper. You want to get those important questions answered first, otherwise you will leave feeling a little disappointed.

6. Find a quiet and comfortable place to sit

To prepare for the session find a quiet a quiet and comfortable space that is free of any distractions. To minimise interruptions and distractions try the following:

  1. Close all windows and doors to minimise noise disturbances
  2. Play some relaxing music to filter out background noises
  3. Let everyone know that you will be unavailable for the duration of the session
  4. Switch off your mobile phone or switch to airplane mode if you plan to record the session
  5. Take care of any urgent tasks so that you can fully concentrate during the session.

7. Meditate for at least 10 minutes

Take a few extra minutes to get yourself into the right mindset for the session.

Try closing your eyes and meditation in the fifteen minutes leading up to the session. If head is being bombarded with questions for the reading try dimming the light or closing the curtains while listening to a guided meditation.

A relaxed state of mind can help facilitate the communication with the psychic and ensure that we are more and in-tune during the psychic reading.

8. Keep an open mind and enjoy the session

Keeping an open mind is important for the flow of the reading and ensures you get the most out of the experience. Being realistic about our expectations is important.
We often believe that one reading alone will reveal everything about our life or resolve all our problems. This is not necessarily the case. We may not get all our questions answered but keep an open mind. We don’t want to miss out on the answer we do receive. 

9. Record or take notes during the session

Always keep a record of the session either using a phone recorder or by taking notes. A lot of information is discussed, and it can be easily forgotten. Having a record gives you the opportunity to revisit and validate the information at a later stage.

A psychic can tap into things from our past, present and future. Just because something may not make sense in the moment, does not mean the information will not be useful in the future.  

1o. Allocate time to reflect after the session

After your psychic reading, take time to reflect on your thoughts, feelings, and the messages you received. Focus on the bigger picture and allow yourself to absorb the valuable insights.

I recommend jotting down some notes in a journal immediately after the session has ended. Many people get inspirational or life-changing ideas during this reflective process.

To get the maximum benefit out of the reading, play back the recording or revisit your notes from the session. Then repeat the process above by reflecting and adding more notes to your journal. You may discover gems or wisdom you missed the first time around.
