9. I'm having a hard time with this

I follow a number of readers on youtube, I especially appreciate all those lovely Australian ladies who seem to know more about American politics than most Americans. I knowingly followed people who not only share my politics but predicted the outcome I wanted to hear. I know there were astrologers and tarot readers predicting a trump win so I can't in good faith say *all* the psychics said the same thing. I don't want to dump on MaryAnn, she's lovely, but I do remember many of her readings for trump where she'd pull excellent cards like The Sun or Ace of Cups and read them as very negative outcomes for him ('full illumination' I'm looking at you). I'd give my monitor the side-eye, thinking if she was reading for a client and got those cards the outcome would be very positive.

My own readings before the election pointed to theft and f*ckery, but also pointed to Harris getting enough votes for that to not matter. So what to think, was it half right or am I deluding myself? Almost all the readers I follow (with the exception of Third Eye Champagne who says don't expect the results to change) have gone from mea culpa to calling foul. I'm not sure whether this isn't just the denial phase in the stages of grief and a coping mechanism or if they're on to something.
