This threads goes hand-in-hand with another thread I made yesterday. http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum24/HTML/216283.html To keep things simple, I'll my repeat my last post. I just got a response through E-Mail from another professional Astrologer named Sylvia Sky. Sylvia Sky.Sylvia Sky has written lots of articles debunking fake Astrologers on The Hub and as well as articles of how to spot frauds from real Astrologers.
quote: Originally posted by Sylvia Sky: (Real name withheld), I would say she is legitimate. She is not calling herself a psychic (astrologers are not psychics!) or dressed up in gypsy costume like the fakes. The reports she offers for about $25 are computer-generated, though. They are not fake but they are not written specifically for you. If you want one-on-one actual customized interaction that will answer all your questions take the $120 option.Good luck, Sylvia
Thats why the contents of the Natal Report I got which I posted about in linked thread can be found online. It was computerized. However I can't really attack the Astrologer who did my natal chart-I just realized when I dabbled with my Account on Tarot.com, it too brought computerized readings and same with other sample or free readings from other sites. So I thought this would make a great topic. Sylvia Sky is famous in the Astrology community on The Hub.Just read the above quote and you should get the idea of what I'm talking about. So what do you think?Is $20-30 bucks a descent price for a computerized Astrological reading or a ripoff?Would you say Astrologers who offer such services are legit? IP: Logged |

I've never heard of her before. I'm not convinced of her authenticity. She's running google ads off the blog and hasn't bothered to block the ads of the "psychics" she's exposing as fake? She's low key on facebook, and next to nothing on google+, no books published that I could see...and no website or blog with examples of her work. Computerized reports ~ they can only go so far. Anyone who's studied astrology is well aware of the amount of time you could spend looking at a chart [days], and most people don't have the 100's $£ that it would cost to get it done by hand. I think the generated reports can give you a vague idea of what your chart holds but it's not going to be anywhere near as detailed as a personalised report. I don't think you can call them a rip off as such, and some are going to be better than others but I'm not sure what people expect if they're only parting with 20-30 dollars. That's like fifteen minutes of an astrologers time, to have your chart done properly you'd be looking at nearer fifteen hours [minimum] to do the basics thoroughly. IP: Logged |

Actually she doesn't run the blog-she posts her stuff on The Hub, which is a privately owned sight.She doesn't own it, she justs post on it. What adds go on there is The Hubs decision,not hers.

It's called cookbook astrology. Computerized reports are helpful when learning about individual aspects but they're not as thorough as talking to an astrologer yourself. IP: Logged |

It's an average price for a computerized report. BUT if there's no mention on the site that the report is computerized or something to that effect then it's BS. I'd report them, but that's just me.

Just ask someone on here to give you a Solar fire report. Its probably the same as the one you'd get from the astrologer.------------------ Gemini Sun Libra Moon Gemini Mercury Cancer Venus Virgo Mars Virgo Asc And yes, I'm a guy! IP: Logged |
