When I went shopping in Newcastle the other day, I was delighted to find a gypsy caravan in the middle of the city.
Naturally, I had to do some ‘research.’
The sign outside the caravan says ‘Readings £3′ and the first thing I was asked after being waved into the caravan by a dark-haired lady with a cigarette in her hand was, “Do you want a five or ten pound reading?”
WTF?!
Luckily for me, I had already decided on a budget of a fiver, so I said, “Five, please” and handed her the note.
The reading lasted somewhere between 80 and 90 seconds. She spoke so fast I could barely make out what she was saying.
She held my left hand while doing her reading but never even glanced at my palm. She didn’t really look at me either but stared straight ahead with a glazed over look in her eyes.
I came away feeling slightly bemused but not disappointed. The sign did promise that I wouldn’t be. I suppose disappointment can only occur when there are any expectations present. In my case, the only expectation was of a cultural experience… of something different.
It felt like what she said had very little to do with me, and it wasn’t so much the words she used as the detached delivery.
Either way, I came away happy to be working under a new paradigm of person-centred fortune telling but I also wondered if the gypsy way of working wasn’t more like the oracles of old. I reckon they probably didn’t bother much with personal niceties either.
Love & Blessings,
PS. Tomorrow, I’ll be back with the final post about Archangel Raphael.

erm…I wouldn’t have been happy, sounds a little (cause cheap) rip off to me…I have had palm and tarot read by gipsies and no it wasn’t like that, so am more inclined she either was having a VERY bad day or she is just a fake…But that is just me…
it’s the second one for me. the first one was roughly 10 years ago and exactly the same… maybe i’m just unlucky lol
A Sinti Gypsy was supposed to send what I ordered from her, but instead I got a mish-mash of items thrown together, oils spilled on a lot of it, didn’t know if I got all that I ordered, due to no labelling. Nothing looked like what was in the pics, but at least I got a beautiful shawl placed on top of everything for free, with the order. That made up for the disappointment. Also, each item was supposed to be shipped within 3-5 days, but it was over a month before I got them, and only after reminding her more than once.
What is a Sinti Gypsy?
