From early times people have been consulting fortune-tellers. some practitioners looked for meaning in such things as the entrails of animals or the way o rooster pecks its grain. Today they use tarot cards, crystal ball, dice and other means to read a person future.
Consider the issue of consistency, the predictions is differing fortune tellers methods often contradict one another.Even when the same methods is used, forcast vary. For example if a person ask two fortune-teller the same question about the future based on the reading of the same cards , logically the answers should be the same but often they are not.
Fortune tellers methods or motives have come under suspicion, critics say that the cards or crystal balls are mere props and that the fortune-teller reads the persons reaction rather than props. For example, a skilled fortune teller ask general questions and carefully watch for verbal and nonverbal clues that could reveal something about you. The fortune-teller will then take credit for knowing facts and situations that the client has just unknowingly given way.Having won the client trust, soe fortune-tellers have been able to obtain large sum of money from their customers.
The practice of astrology and fortune-telling implies that our future is predetermined. God condemns all forms of divination, there should not be found in anyone who employs divination, anyone practicing magic, anyone who looks for omens, a sorcerer, anyone who consult a spirit medium or a fortune teller. For who ever does these things is detestable to God Deuteronomy 18:10-12
