AUGUSTA, Ga.- Forget about financial advisers, more and more people are turning to psychics. One Augusta psychic says more people are paying her to predict their financial future.

It's a supernatural force people may or may not believe in: the ability to predict the future. But it's a power Stephanie Moreno says she has. After ten years of professional psychic reading, Moreno says she's noticed a change. People aren't asking about love, marriage or family.

"No matter what time of day it is, they will call, set up an appointment. 'Just tell me about my future.' They are worried. A lot of them are in debt,” said Moreno.

Moreno says her business has improved with more and more people wanting know what their financial future holds.

"They're confused, they're worried. They ask, 'what's going to happen to my business? Am I going to have to lay more people off? Can I keep my job?'" said Moreno.

The answers may not be what they want to hear.

"It's hard, but I have to. They don't like it. But it will give them time to find out something else or be prepared for it," said Moreno.

As far as the recession, Moreno predicts the economy will brighten up soon.

“Be patient, wait it out. Don’t be as worried as everyone is. It’s crazy about how worried people are,” said Moreno.

Moreno tells 26 News she predicts the economy should get better by the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010. And if you play with the stock market, she says things will start improving in four to six months.
