How have psychic readings been impacted by the development of technology?

The whole notion of psychics is very old, dating back to the start of many civilisations. Certain people and communities have always believed in it, while others have viewed it as nothing but myths and legends with very little substance or concrete evidence.

In fact, much of the world believes psychics to be fakes and chancers, who make up visions and predictions to scam on vulnerable people. But the modern world can be a scary place and as a result, more and more people are turning to psychic readings to guidance, support and a calming influence on their lives.

As a result of that, the growth in belief has been huge and it continues; the stigma surrounding psychic readings is being broken. There have been many cases of people having a genuine psychic experience, either through their own energies and powers, or a reading from a professional.

Part of the reason for this has been the ease of access in psychic readings. With the development of the internet, online psychic readings have become much more commonplace; people no longer need to be shady and hide their beliefs as they head to the local psychic in town, there are many websites, each housing thousands of different readers who specialise in a different type of psychic experience, including mediums, clairvoyance and relationship and career advice. But the most impressive thing about the development of the psychic world is how some of the more ‘physical’ readings have managed to stay relevant.

Things like tarot card readings and palm readings are difficult to do online, they are possible because they are all about surrounding energies, but to access them, they usually need touch. Palm readings in particular require a physical connection, but the development of technology has made the transition seamless.

Websites are only part of the reason why psychics and in particular astrology and palm readings are growing in popularity. The development of a number of apps has helped palm readings reach more and more people. The best online palm readings can be found on lists of the best apps, which includes the likes of FortuneScope, Horoscope and Palm Master and Astroline. These have skyrocketed in popularity in recent years, and the sheer numbers of revenue prove that.

In 2019, the US market grew 64% to reach a staggering $40million. These apps use the camera on phones to make the palm readings; the fact that they are so easy to do nowadays is absolutely crucial to the growth you can see. 

Interest in palm readings is also becoming more diverse, and the fact is that the new band of psychic readers online are extremely tech savvy and able to move with the times. There were times when palm readings were completely rejected as nothing more than a scam, but thanks to great enhancements in technology and online, the future of astrology is certainly very bright.
