The things people ask me first.

I'm Barbara Rae, The Psychic: a psychic, medium and tarot reader based in Paddington, Sydney. I've done psychic work for over sixty years and read tarot for thirty-five, and I read for people by FaceTime across Australia and overseas.

Yes. Every reading with The Psychic: Barbara Rae is by FaceTime, so you can book from anywhere in Australia or overseas. It's one hour for $300 AUD including GST, booked through the calendar on this site.

Everything I do. There are no separate types of reading and no upsells. I bring all of it to the table: intuitive insight, tarot, mediumship, spiritual guidance and my connection to the spirit world. Each sitting is guided by what you need most on the day.

All of them, in the same hour. I've never separated my abilities into categories. A sitting might move through psychic insight, the symbolism in the cards, spiritual guidance and mediumship, depending on what you need.

A full hour is $300 AUD including GST, paid securely by card when you book. Payments go through Stripe, and you'll have a confirmation email with all the details straight away.

Every reading is by FaceTime, so there's no need to travel. I read for people right across Sydney, up and down the east coast, and overseas. Melbourne, Brisbane, London or Los Angeles, distance makes no difference to the connection.

Not a problem at all. The booking calendar shows my times in your own timezone, so just book whatever looks right to you.

I open four sittings a day during business hours, Sydney time. They fill quickly, so it's worth booking ahead rather than hoping for tomorrow.

Yes. You'll get a confirmation email the moment you book, and a reminder 24 hours before your reading, which is handy if you need to reschedule.

Of course. Move or cancel for free up to 12 hours before. Inside 12 hours, half the fee is held.

I've had over sixty years of psychic insight and thirty-five reading tarot. I don't sugarcoat or make wild promises, and while no psychic can predict every detail, my aim is always clarity, validation and direction you can actually use in everyday life.

There's no formal prep. Find a quiet, comfortable space for the FaceTime call and come with an open mind. Jot down a few topics if it helps, but you don't need to feed me information. I'll guide the session and focus on what's most relevant for you.

I don't guarantee specific outcomes, like exactly when something will happen. A reading is insight, spiritual connection and guidance, not a fortune teller predicting precise events. It's also not medical, legal or financial advice, so please see the right professionals for those.

If they come through, yes, and I'll share what I'm given with care. Mediumship is often part of a sitting naturally. I never force it, but spirit often shows up when it's needed.

Yes, please do, as long as it's for your own use.

You can, but please make sure they know and are willing. Readings work best when the person is open and ready for it.

That's how a great many people arrive, especially if something big is happening. There's nothing you need to bring. I'll guide it gently, and honestly.
