Magic 8 Balls and fortune cookies are about as comprehensive as tweets. Go deeper with arcane wisdom and clairvoyance, courtesy of four sage sources.
Crystal Baller
Who: Jessica Lanyadoo, a witty, tell-it-like-it-is intuitive who operates out of a crystallized upstairs lair in the Mission.
SOS: Rather than forecasting life events, Lanyadoo taps her ability to shed light on the present, providing solid solutions and strategies for the future.
P.S.: She’s also skilled in tarot, medium communication, and astrology readings.
Where: 692 Valencia St., at 18th St. (415-336-8354).
Full of Heroics
Who: Have a little fun with your forecast via Storm’s creative X-Men card tarot.
Wow factor: His in-depth interpretation of the cards in relation to your past, present, and future will be appreciated by non-comic book fans and skeptics alike.
Aw: Return with your partner for a couples’ reading.
Where: Heroic Tarot, 549 Lyon St., at Fulton St. (415-260-2903).
Bona Fide Truth
Who: Cozy up with Nicki Bonfilio, a reader with a degree in psychology.
Clair-apy time: Sessions are a hybrid of yoga-like techniques (breathing, guided meditation) and therapy.
Bonus: Bonfilio pulls four cards and reviews them postreading to set the stage for what’s to come.
Where: 3150 18th St., at Treat Ave. (415-487-4399).
Horn of Plenty
Who: Joyce Van Horn, a sweet sage with a voice like lavender.
Map it out: She begins by presenting you with a personalized natal chart so complex it would blow Rand McNally’s mind. Gain insight on career, relationships, self, and soul.
Breaking point: Learn to work beyond your blind spot (that habit you can’t seem to shake) to fully tap into your true potential.
Where: 1971 Bush St., at Buchanan St. (415-441-4776).
