It's amazing how many "psychic readers" have storefronts in Oakland. Who goes to these folks? This advisor is on Park Blvd. But I see them all over Oakland along with the ubiquitous nail shops.
Interesting shot and text. "The truth is out there" but it's not for sale. "Freely you have received, freely give." A thought-provoking post, and the hand is weird.
As the saying goes "There's a sucker born every minute", business must always be good. At least these establishments are always clean and tidy looking from the street.
Despite my reservations about the practical value (shall we say) of the profession, I always appreciate a good neon window sign. Thanks for that..

Cop to psychic: "You're a psychic. You tell me!"

ReplyDeleteI'll skip ;-) but I'll talk to the moon!
ReplyDeleteI wonder the same thing! There must be a segment of the population that needs their services.
ReplyDeleteDid she know that you were dropping by? Maybe she had some coffee ready. Put me down as a doubtful!
