Psychic Visit Gone Wrong: What One Fashion Professional Learned About Spiritual Warfare, Evil Altars, and Witchcraft

Is Visiting a Psychic Just Harmless Curiosity — or Something More Dangerous?

For Kimisha, it started with curiosity. As a young fashion student already drawn into astrology and zodiacs, she walked past a $5 palm reading shop near her school and decided to step inside. She describes this openness to New Age practices as an open door — one that gave the enemy an opportunity to draw her in even deeper. What began as a five-dollar visit stretched into roughly a year to a year and a half of repeated consultations. The lesson she draws is clear: what presents itself as harmless curiosity can become a sustained spiritual entanglement, especially when someone is already exploring New Age spirituality.

Why Do Psychics Ask for Your Full Name, Date of Birth, and Photo?

One of the most alarming things Kimisha recalls is being told, after her first visit, that the psychic would need her full name, date of birth, and a photograph to so-called help her. At the time, she did not understand why that personal information was necessary. It was only after coming to faith and going through a healing and deliverance ministry that she understood the reason: that information was used to build an evil altar. The psychic claimed she would take these details to her so-called church at night to pray over them and, in her own words, create a new image of the person. Kimisha now understands this as witchcraft — using personal identifying information as a point of contact to establish a spiritual connection, or altar, over someone's life without their informed consent.

What Is an Evil Altar, and How Does It Work?

Kimisha's experience gave her a firsthand understanding of how evil altars operate. An evil altar, as she explains it through her story, is a spiritual construct — in this case, built using a person's personal information, name, date of birth, and photo — that is used to exert spiritual influence over that individual. The psychic used the guise of helping Kimisha while actually establishing this kind of altar over her life. The result was not genuine help but spiritual backlash: some things would appear to go half-right, but then circumstances would spiral downward in ways she could not explain or control.

Can a Psychic Claim to Be a Christian While Practicing Witchcraft?

One of the most striking moments in Kimisha's account is when she directly confronted the psychic, telling her she wanted nothing to do with witchcraft. The psychic's response was immediate: she insisted she was not a witch, that she and her associates were Christians, and that they went to church at night to help people. Kimisha now recognizes this as a significant red flag she was not equipped to identify at the time — because she did not yet know the scriptures. She references Deuteronomy 18, verses 10 through 11, which lists divination, observing times, enchanting, witchcraft, charming, consulting familiar spirits, wizardry, and necromancy as abominations before God. She also references 1 John 4:1, which instructs believers to test the spirits and not believe every spirit, because many false prophets have gone into the world. No genuine church, she now understands, operates at night using people's personal information in that manner.

What Occult Items Did the Psychic Give Her — and What Happened?

Beyond the altar built from her personal information, the psychic also gave Kimisha physical items to use. These included a chakra bracelet, a purple crystal stone, colored oils — red, purple, and white — each containing a chakra stone inside, presented as a kind of anointing oil, and crystals intended to be placed in her bath water. Kimisha followed all of these instructions. The result, she says, was that some things seemed to go moderately well for a time, but then things would go badly in ways she describes as intense spiritual warfare. She also kept all of this secret, not telling her parents, which meant she had no one warning her or praying with her through the experience.

How Did the Psychic Use Fear to Keep Her Coming Back?

The psychic did not wait for Kimisha to return voluntarily. Kimisha recalls receiving calls from the psychic saying things like, "We're seeing something going on — you need to come now so we can help you." She identifies this as a deliberate tactic to impose fear and keep her returning. She also reflects that every single visit involved money — there was always a financial ask tied to the promise of help. In contrast, she notes that when she eventually encountered the Word of God through a small New Testament Bible given to her in Manhattan, the peace she received cost her nothing. That stark difference — paid fear versus free peace — became one of the turning points in her journey toward faith.

What Finally Led Her Out of the Psychic's Influence and to Christ?

After the spiritual backlash became overwhelming and Kimisha found herself not knowing where to turn, she received a miniature New Testament Bible on the streets of Manhattan. She brought it home and began reading it. She describes the Word of God as feeling alive — a peace that she had not experienced through any of the psychic's tools or promises. Having already encountered the demonic side of the spiritual realm, she could recognize that what she felt reading Scripture was categorically different. Certain passages directed her toward prayer during times of worry, stress, and fear, and she followed those directions. That peace led her to pray and cry out to God for help — and she was eventually led into a healing and deliverance ministry where she broke the curses, cast out spirits she had allowed in through her open doors, and received genuine spiritual freedom.

What Is Spiritual Warfare in the Workplace — and Is That Next?

Kimisha is clear that her visit to the psychic was not her only spiritual battle. She introduces the broader context of her story: over ten years in the fashion industry, she has encountered significant spiritual warfare, particularly involving witchcraft — not just in her personal life but in professional settings as well. She notes that witchcraft appears to be on the rise and that people are seeking it for help and favor, often without open discussion about what it truly involves. Her psychic experience eventually connected to an encounter in her professional life with someone she describes as deeply involved in the occult — a story she intends to share in a future episode.
