| What psychic readings are available
Card reading | The most common deck available is the tarot, of which there are many types but all consist of Major Arcana - cards such as "The Fool" or "Strength" - and Lesser Arcana that are analogous to a standard playing card deck. Many area psychics used playing cards with messages scrawled upon them; sometimes psychics construct their own cards. Palm reading | Generally, the lines exist - life, love, mind, success, fate and children - they become more nuanced from there. Scrying | Sometimes it's a body of water, sometimes a stone or crystal, and involves seeing images or flashes Reiki | A form of aura reading - the energy each person emanates. By tuning in to the energy centers in your body, a psychic can intuit the past and future, and perform various methods of healing Divination | This can include runes, stones, or various collections of trinkets.
Psychic tells all
Amid vendors selling hot tubs or jewelry, Adam Marks sits patiently in his psychic tent and waits for people who want to plunk down $10 for a chance to see their future.
His booth competes for attention from the next-door Navy recruiters who are blasting country music and handing out sunglasses. Marks doesn't have anything so snazzy to get people to come by. His booth has three simple tables and a couple of decks of Tarot cards. He's dressed simply, and he's soft-spoken and quick to smile.
People amble by and stare and occasionally groups of teenagers will laugh and yell out questions like, "Am I going to die soon?"
Even if they are being obnoxious, Marks resists the temptation to shout back: "Yes!"
He waits.
Most of the time it takes about an hour for one of those kids to break off from the group and sneak back for a reading.
