My husband and I consulted with Susan in late January just after deciding to euthanize our sweet,…read more15-year-old dog, Sparky. As much as I told myself the goal wasn't to hear her say we were making the right decision, in reality, I still very much hoped to hear that. I also feared Susan might say the opposite--that she wasn't intuiting the moment was right, which would have greatly increased our anguish. So it was with some anxiety that I moved forward, encouraging myself to have faith in the decision we'd already made, and the idea that a session with Susan might shed some light on the situation. What I didn't anticipate was how much she would actually help Sparky. Susan visited our home the afternoon before the vet came to the house. She sat down beside a pretty sleepy pup and talked quietly with us while he slept. She also sat in silence beside him, just listening in the quiet. After a little while, she expressed that the Sparky she was intuiting in the moment seemed very different from the Sparky of a few years ago. She said she tried to communicate to him that tomorrow morning he'd be leaving this realm and would soon be free of all his pain, but she wasn't sure she was getting through to him--she just kept intuiting "a lot of fog." We explained he had dementia. After more moments of just sitting, Susan said she'd asked him what he needed, and again, the fog, but the word "peace" came to her. She mentioned that his desire for peace was not only for him, but for us, too. While we were talking to Susan in the entryway as she was leaving, Sparky got up, walked across the room, and sat down beside her. She knelt down to say goodbye, and he gave her lots of kisses--in the way that he used to do when he appreciated people. This was very unusual for him--he'd long since given up socializing. The next morning we took Sparky for a neighborhood walk before the vet was due to arrive. To our surprise, he ran for several blocks (his arthritis kept him from doing that for the last 9 months), walking all the way to an old haunt of his, a local cafe. We sat on benches outside, and Sparky ate some of his favorite pastries that he'd long since lost interest in, all while looking in the direction opposite from home--he was ready to keep going. Sparky's passing was very peaceful. I've revisited that moment too many times in the past 4 months, unfortunately, but one thought that increasingly reverberates for me is how willingly he seemed to lie down. He was at peace and ready to say goodbye, and we were too. We credit the blessing of Susan's insight for this, and we are deeply grateful.

Let me start by saying that I have consulted with numerous psychics, intuitives, and animal…read morecommunicators over nearly 20 years. I am not a skeptic by nature, and yet I left my session with Susan feeling skeptical, disappointed, and just plain confused about what her agenda was. I booked an hour-long zoom Animal Communication session with Susan to connect with my senior dog whose health is in decline, and to explore whether he feels ready to pass on. But I came away with the gnawing sense that she was unable to actually open up a connection with my dog, and that she pivoted towards info seeking, reflective listening, validation, and advice giving to make up for it. This left the impression of having simply done a therapy session -- which would have been fine if I scheduled that service, but Susan is not a licensed therapist and I expected far more given how she advertises her psychic abilities. The first *18 minutes* of our session were filled by Susan asking about personal things like my occupation, etc. that felt irrelevant. It wasn't small talk - she took notes.. I've never experienced this before-- every other person I've worked with has jumped right into the reading. I kept my responses brief, and was feeling antsy to begin, so I did my best to move her along and made reference to specific aims and questions I had in mind. By this point I was watching the clock closely and was eager to get to the part of the reading when she would make contact with my dog, which is what I've come to expect working with several other animal communicators over several years. The "reading" proceeded and turned into what felt more like a therapy session with a well-meaning but subpar clinician who leaned heavily into advice giving and sharing circuitous things from her own personal life. She claimed that these bits from her personal life came to her because they related to how my dog was feeling -- well, in that case, skip the personal story and just share the takeaway: "Some things are coming through that give me the impression that he's still able to be fairly active, but he's ready to pass". When I am paying $225 for an hour-long session, it is quite frustrating when the minutes are ticking by and I'm hearing about her elderly neighbor and what he said to her husband -- please just tell me what is relevant to me. I left the session with most of my questions unanswered, despite asking them clearly and directly. Each time I asked a direct question, she paused and would be silent with her eyes closed for 1-2 minutes. She would then pose a question to me, and then simply validate my brief response without providing any additional insight and without saying anything in reference to my dog's experience. It was as if there was never a connection established between her and my pet, and it felt like she was just riffing it. (Example) "I'd like to know about his relationships with his pet siblings" (Susan silent for 2 minutes, then asks: "Do they get along?") "Yes, they do" (Susan smiles and says "Ah, yes, they get along"). That's it. She literally dropped it and said nothing more. For real?! Or she referenced one of the photos of my dog that was sent to her in advance, that showed him lying in his dog bed. She just said, "That looks like his safe space. Is it? That's great. You'll want to focus on keeping him where he feels safe". Much of the session had the tenor of generic feedback from someone who is knowledgeable about euthanasia and end-of-life care considerations -- not someone who is psychically communicating with an animal in the here-and-now. At one point in the reading, out of the blue she started probing into my career trajectory, at which point I stated that I was not in a headspace to think about my career and wanted to focus on my dog's experience, feelings and needs. Again, I booked an animal communication session. It did not feel like she was connecting with my pet, and so it left me wondering whether she was grasping at straws. To her credit, Susan held space beautifully for the most part, she has a calm demeanor and facilitated a rather difficult conversation around euthanasia and end-of-life considerations. She struck me as empathic, in that she reads the *humans'* emotions pretty well and picked up on some growing edges, in terms of personal growth: "You need to value your own needs and stop putting others above yourself" kind of self-help stuff. I did not feel that the session was a total waste of time, simply because it provided a space for difficult conversation and reflection. But I came away with the gnawing sense that she was unable to actually open up a connection with my dog. I want to remain open and give the benefit of the doubt, like maybe sometimes a pet's human caregivers need to receive particular messages and the highest good is not in fact hearing from a pet directly... but if that's the case, then it is important to communicate that transparently so that expectations are adjusted.

She used all the great graphs (transits)and charts that Jamie usually includes, which is always so helpful. Fran is a very good listener, and is incredibly intuitive. She is knowledgeable and has a really warm communication style. I felt like she truly cared about the outcome of the reading, and she checked in with me often, to make sure we were on track. I have had some big decisions to make recently, and she was able to show me where in my chart that planets were aligning to give support or perhaps more work in one area or another. The reading with Fran was so comprehensive and rich- I enjoy listening to it and looking at my notes even now, over a month later. I am finding a lot of good guidance and feel like my focus is on point with Fran's help. She also gave me a lot of encouragement and pointed out some highlights in my chart regarding my character and resilience. Not only that- we looked at transits throughout the year + talked about parental influences in my chart! It was very detailed and so pleasurable. I can't wait to have another reading with Fran. I have recently become a "Demigod" level member on Pandora Astrology's Patreon, which means I get access to extra goodies like early horoscopes & workshops. Jamie is very generous with her time and energy and really puts a lot of thought into the classes. At the last class, we focused on Saturn and Jupiter transits throughout 2024, and she pointed out a couple of really helpful things in my chart. All in all, I'm very pleased with Pandora Astrology and highly recommend them. Fran is a newer astrologer, but one would never know it. She gave me one of the best (and most useful) readings I've ever had!

EDIT: The response from the Psychic further justifies what I have stated regarding the change in…read morecharge removing the trust from the experience. During my reading I was constantly told I couldn't be given more information and she wished I wanted a general reading. Now she is claiming I asked for a general reading and was given one. At this point I could not see why anyone would visit. I leave this review for concern of young women in the area who make the mistake of visiting this place and being taken advantage of. I really could care less what was said during the reading. The one star review is solely for the experience of being scammed. Don't let it be you ladies. I came in on Monday this week after having dinner with a friend. We were walking past and decided to drop in to check it out. The man inside told us there was a deal where all the readings were $25. He said he'd call the lady and she'd come back. When she came back she told me she had a deal but only on a love reading and that it was $20. So I decided I'd do it. Huge mistake. There are four option one being general. I would have preferred the general. But no big deal because I just wanted to do something for fun. She essentially spend about 12 minutes telling me that I'm a lonely pushover that's been abused. No advice no encouragement just insults. She finished and then I asked her about the price because the man said $25 and she said $20. She proceeds to tell me that it's $45. In what world do I pay $45 for a reading that wasn't even my preferred subject and that was just insults. I wouldn't have even left a bad review if it weren't for the change in price against the original agreement. Who cares what someone says but it felt like a scam and had she said nice things I wouldn't have trusted anything after the price manipulation. Wouldn't recommend to anyone for any reason at all.
