Fortune tellers enjoy the trust – and business – of many Thais who seek guidance about what the future holds. Nachawan Israsena na Ayudhya talks with several practitioners, from the traditional chart reader to innovators who develop new forms of prognostication, for a glimpse of the predictive arts’ current state
“I use the Hudjut cards to make predictions under the auspices of three ethereal beings,” “But as soon as I sat down I heard the voice say, ‘His wife disappeared,”
“How I answer could have a huge impact on their lives. I need to be careful not to destroy a person’s potential. At the same time, I don’t lie, but choose my words carefully to present obstacles as challenges to be met.” “He said that I could become an astrologer, but that I would destroy my teachers, meaning that I would surpass their skill.”
