ALBUQUERQUE, Dec. 29 (UPI) -- The economic recession has been good for soothsayers across the United States, so says the American Association of Psychics.

The group says psychics have seen a dramatic upturn in business thanks to the nation's economic woes.

Ana Anaya of Albuquerque said this year's financial troubles have resulted in the busiest November and December in her 35 years as a psychic, KOAT-TV in Albuquerque reported Monday.

"I have been so busy because of the stock market," she said. "I have a lot of people who have lost their jobs.

"People come to me from every walk of life. Doctors, lawyers, millionaires, billionaires, people who just walked out of jail."

Anaya's predictions for the economy in 2009 are optimistic.

"Things are definitely going to get better absolutely -- it will be really good for people," she said.

However, not all of the news will be good -- she said she was "sorry to say" that "gas prices will definitely go up."
