Psycards People

Nick Hobson, Creator of Psycards

After studying at Cambridge Nick started off in the publishing and advertising world working as a copywriter in New York and Switzerland. In the last ten years he has been working in a marketing role in London's biggest language school, visiting China and Brazil. Nick created Psycards after a powerful dream at a point in his life when he was going through a huge amount of personal pain and turmoil.

In his own words:

"I was, as it were, on a high place, looking down on my own life, and could see all the elements that had made me what I was, set out separately: the influences of my family, my background, my education, my friends, my fears, my hopes, my failures, spread out before me like fields in the plain below... The feeling I had was one of peace and control; it was my life, and comprehensible."

On awakening, Nick set about creating Psycards to help others to gain meaning, perspective and peace – as he had been able to feel in his dream. Beautifully illustrated by Maggie Kneen the cards have been available since the early eighties and are more popular than ever, being used all over the world. The cards draw on Jungian psychology and symbolism, mythology, folk wisdom, poetry and fairy tales. They tap in to the collective unconscious and are as valuable for giving readings to others as they are for personal counsel.

Nick now lives in Hampstead with his partner Karin who is a speaker and actor and writes children's books. He has three sons and five grandchildren. He also writes poetry and published his book Knock Knock three years ago. Today Nick is working as hard as ever on promoting his marvellous invention. He continues to draw people close to him who are just as passionate about the cards.

Faith Bird, Psychic Advisor

Gifted from birth, Faith is a fifth generation psychic and healer who has been working professionally for thirteen years now. Other than holding her moonstone (her psychic security blanket) Faith no longer needs to use any tools - simply channelling direct from one of her spirit guides, but when she does want to use anything it has to be Psycards. She believes that psychics need to keep their channel in condition by regularly connecting. “You must look after your gift and be grateful” she says.

Faith is devoted to Psycards and uses them in preference to any other cards or divination tools. She says that from the moment she picked them up, she could feel the power and she was blown away by their strength. “Psycards will bring out anyone’s gift and are great for reading other people as well as getting instant answers for ourselves. I wish Psycards could be prescribed! We are all psychic to one degree or another – its how we feel about it and what we do with it that matters”

Her aim is to to unlock the secrets of the past to discover what is holding us back and to help everyone to choose happiness. We all have free will choice and our future is in our hands. She doesn’t like to ask any questions and always aims to provide validation to begin with. Faith likes to leave the client uplifted and empowered, and delivers informed positive hope for the future.

As well as giving psychic readings Faith likes to work as a psychic detective locating lost objects and pets and solving mysteries. She is also very keen on Feng Shui, and can link in to your home and remotely cleanse it for you. Faith makes regular appearances on Psychic TV 886, reads for celebrities and will be a key personality at our Camden Unlock events.
