TOWN FULL OF MEDIUMS

Costs $65 from Gypsy seeds and harvest guidance.” Usually, up to 100 people a day visit the shop, but coronaviru­s has seen numbers plummet.

“We have been predicting ‘the great awakening’ for many years, and it is finally here,” she said.

“It is an amazing time to seek spirituali­sm. We hope this helps recalibrat­e humanity.”

The shop offers a crystal healing bed treatment – it costs a dollar a minute and is said to relieve stress, soothe anxiety, and reconnect people to themselves.

For $35 you get an “aura report” which found I had a blue-indigo air about me indicating a “communicat­ive, loving, loyal, sensitive and helpful” person – yet one who was suffering stress and read as if I may be on my way out. Which brings me back to that table in the hotel with Gypsy.

Scents of inner self 65 bucks for a half-hour consultati­on in a room decked out with crystals, trinkets, pictures and various dolls.

The smell of incense hit me like a train. She dealt the tarot cards quicker than a Las Vegas croupier. Within seconds she was on the scent of the inner self I didn’t know. “We want you to work with things like lavender and get a lavender pillow,” she said, adding that I loved ice cream.

Before I could reply: “Doesn’t everybody?” she revealed I have five spirit guides in my life. Most people only have two, apparently.

“There is one Irish and one’s Welsh. They’re cousins,” she said. “Like they’re sort of jokesters, but you know, sometimes you’re just sort of closed off to it, and you’re, like, focused on the serious.

“And they’re like, ‘Come on man, open up, you know, you know, be happy’.

Then she told me the other two were a brother and sister both under 10 “helping balance the male and female aspects of your inner child”. Her best advice was about my financial future – and that “on your way out” verdict I’d had.

“I hear you’re looking forward to retirement. You’re not quite there yet,” she said. Phew! “You’re still sort of very young, but spirit guides recently have been really on at people about saving money and the stock market.

“So wait until this panic is sort of over and about a month or two and start sort of buying the cheaper stocks, all the stocks that have fallen watch them bounce.”

All this time I’d been wondering just what she meant by her trance-like uttering of the word “Apple”. Now, the big reveal.

“Play it smart. Apple stocks are going to be super grabbable. Just grab a whole bunch and watch it go up,” said Gypsy. “And if that fails, buy Samsung.”
