Washington Square Psychic Madam China

My actual rating for my reading from Pebbles at this biz is about 3.2 stars, but I have had to round it down to 3 stars for Unilocal.
BTW, there seem to be at least four different female readers, and perhaps even more than that, who work out of this storefront shop on the first floor of 711 Walnut St., each at different times. The reader from whom I received a reading in June of 2014 was named Pebbles, according to her biz card and flyer, and her phone # was listed on each as 215−925−2121 (this is different than the phone # listed for the biz in the header of the Unilocal business page).
Now, before I start my review, let me give you some background information about myself if you have not yet read any of my other reviews of psychics here. In addition to being a scientific/​engineering consultant, I am also a mystic, a spiritual healer and an intuitive (aka psychic). Because of these latter-​mentioned things, I know a great number of mystics, psychics and healers from around the world. Whenever I travel, I usually make it a practice to get readings from at least two or three local psychics — all of them total strangers to me before the start of the reading — in whatever city I am visiting.
Since I’m a mystic and spiritual healer, my life is very much filled with Divine love and grace, and my life always flows well, and I am very happy and very much at peace. I want to stress the fact that when I make visits to local psychics during my travels, I am not seeking help with any problems, nor am I seeking spiritual guidance, and rather, I seek them out and ask for a general life reading simply because God asks me to do so, and to have a fun way of connecting with other practitioners in the realms of the inner mystical/​spiritual and metaphysical arts, for I see them as my spiritual sisters and brothers.
So, when reading my reviews of psychics here on Unilocal or elsewhere, it may be helpful for you to bear in mind that I did not visit any of them with any problems or serious questions or wishes in mind, and, due to this fact, your own experience with the same psychics might be somewhat different than mine. In other words, your mileage may vary (from mine)!
In mid-​June 2014, I walked into this storefront shop, located a few steps above the sidewalk, and asked for a cold psychic reading from the woman (Pebbles) sitting at the table.
As is always my practice when getting a reading from a «new» (to me) psychic, this was a totally cold reading. Thus, I told Pebbles, prior to the start of the reading, only my first name, the date and place of my birth, and that I now lived in Maryland, and that I was visiting Philly for a few days and staying in a hotel in Center City. I told her nothing more about myself, and I did not reveal any other information about myself, until after the reading had ended.
I paid Pebbles about $ 55 for a full (deck) tarot reading. My sense is that she was pretty good. She correctly saw that I am a mystic, a spiritual healer, and an intuitive/​psychic. She also saw and described accurately several women in my life and some of their traits, and also several significant things about my life history and my current life. Notably, a vast majority of Pebbles’ statements about my life history and events in my current life were specific and detailed, and quite accurate.
There were no attempts at cons, upgrades or «upsizing», beyond one mild attempt to tell me toward the end of the reading that she felt that I was somewhat contaminated with negative energy, and that she wanted to do a (relatively expensive, about $ 450 to $ 600) energy cleaning for me, which I politely refused.
BTW, the reading room for this biz is quite appealing; it is located a bit above the sidewalk, and the seats at the reading table, located near the large window, overlook the busy and scenic Market Street sidewalk below.

My friend and I were looking for a Starbucks one fine winter Friday afternoon so I can charge my phone. How we ended up here is something I still don’t understand. I was making a joke about psychics and sure enough, we walk in front of this place. There was a sign for $ 25 tarot readings. My friend loves psychics and I love shenanigans for $ 25.
My friend asked about the $ 25 tarot reading but she was told it’s only on weekends. I predict trickery. My friend willingly accepted to pay $ 35 for this but I bowed out. The psychic was bargaining with me.
Psychic: I’ll do it for $ 30.
Me: no, thank you.
Psychic: $ 25.
Me: nope, I’m good.
Psychic: $ 15 palm reading.
Me: ok.
So, the palm reading happened. She told me about my past, my personality and my future. There were a couple of things she told me that I didn’t understand so, I typed everything I remembered on my phone so I can look back in a few years to test for accuracy. My reading took about 5 – 10 minutes. My friend’s tarot reading took 10 minutes and was a bit more in depth. The psychic offered my friend a «healing» and was given a business card — but not me. The business card probably costs more than what I’m willing to pay for her services. If she predicted I’m cheap as heck, she got that right!
Were her readings accurate? I don’t know. There’s only one way to find out — wait until I’m 88 – 89. If I die at that age then that means they’re accurate.

Sabrina was «right on the money» with her reading. Without any knowledge of me other than my first name and birthdate, she was able to tell me so many accurate facts about my childhood, present life, and even specific people such as family members. She has over 20 years experience and I can see that in her reading. I will definitely go to see her again! Unfortunately, I will have to have money to do that.

I’m a big fan of astrology I’ve been to stores in pretty much every major city my local shop that I go to is Madame Chinaevery store that I have one in so far from New York to Toronto has reference and knowledge of Madame China in Philadelphiareadings range from $ 10 to $ 125 and the 10 dollar
Reading she seen the upcoming signing I had for a script. She said she picked up on a positive news from pepole who are famous. She then said the first name of the person I had contract with. She also knew some facts in my life that I only knew.

Absolutely predatory, manipulative and misleading. Why won’t the city hold charlatans accountable? Or at least, taxable? We could use the tax to fund education for people who fall prey. pray?
