An Unexplainable Fortune Telling Experience

I had a chat with a friend living in Halifax, Canada which reminded me of an incident when I visited her before the Pandemic. During my visit, my friend told me that she would like to visit a fortune teller who was quite popular there, and asked if I was interested in coming along. I was not interested in having my fortune told but I agreed to accompany her. The fortune teller we met was a woman. She asked my friend's birth date and read her palms. Then she made a cup of tea and looked at it. She talked about some of my friend's past events which were surprisingly accurate. She also predicted the future of my friend. That could not be verified at that moment. All of a sudden, she told my friend she saw images of a lady going to hospital. She asked my friend if there's any family members who were sick. My friend's mother has some heart problems. Soon after we left the fortune teller's place, my friend got a call from her sister that her mother was in the hospital.
I'm not a superstitious person. But I don't know how to explain this. Maybe the fortune teller has a strong sixth sense and she is good at palmistry.
Do you believe in fortune telling and palmistry?

Understand. I'm a rational person. I just find the incident unexplainable.

Sometimes I do, and sometimes I don't. I think it would depend on the fortune teller. I've heard of people who have sharpened their 6th sense that through practice and experience and inherent ability, they can actually foretell a person's future. But I would be wary until I can prove that what was foretold becomes true.

I think there are people who may be gifted, but there are some scammers too.

@Beestring Welcome, I am glad she is fine now.
I did go to a fortune teller one time and she was exceptionally right about everything.

@Beestring - I had a similar experience, so I know that those people are not scammers.

I do believe it is possible and there are people with the gift but i also believe that there are frauds too.

I think most of that type of thing is lucky guessing and maybe a bit of intuition. although some people are gifted in that way.. It would be natural to assume that an older person might have some health problems...I think maybe she got lucky with the hospital thing, lucky for the fortune teller, unlucky for your friend.

I understand your perspective. I just find the incident unexplainable, may be gifted, may be intuition as you said.
