    Is there a collective word.....

    ....for a group of psychics? Can't find one in my Chambers.

    Any suggestions?

    Re: Is there a collective word.....

    I still can't think of a collective word, but would psychics ever need to get together in a group anyway? I presume everyone would know what everyone else was thinking or was going to say.

    There would be the social contact aspect, I suppose. They might well need that, like most of the rest of us.

    A "psycho" of psychics might sound a bit derogatory, so I won't suggest it.

    there may be one here: http://www.ojohaven.com/collectives/

    How about "a guesstimate of psychics" or "a vagueness of psychics"

    Some that spring to mind:

    A misrepresentation, a duplicity, a deception, or possibly my favourite - a fallacy of psychics.

    By analogy with a screeching of peacocks, how about a screeching of peabrains?

    A Borg of psychics

    The Borg collective out of Star Trek (The next generation) are all connected up like Broadband or something sort of a bit like telepathy so to speak.

    An 'open mind' of psychics.

    A sensitivity of psychics.

    I was on Brighton Pier yesterday and there was a psychic there. He was charging 20 pounds for a session. His notice board had all this big companies like Cornhill Insurance etc and as I walked pass he popped his head out and said ' A fortune of Psychics'...what a coincidence...then he chased me down the pier for his 20 quid!!!
