Tarot FAQ

Is tarot just a gimmick?

There are many misconceptions about tarot.  Primarily, it is a simple deck of cards that acts as a tool – or springboard, if you will – for ideas, patterns, and connections.  Simply using the tarot for fortune-telling is not my aim, although it is often used as such.  I use the tarot as a personal and professional tool for self-awareness, self-analysis and self-improvement.  Click here for my personal tarot history.

Can you tell me my future?
I use the tarot primarily to look into your present circumstances and find ways to overcome present issues.  At the risk of sounding like a broken record, “the future is not set in stone,” and anything I see in your future can change as you progress along a path, or change it.  That said, I do normally make use of an “outcome” or “future” card in a spread (or in the case of the Yearly Spread, a card for every month ahead, examining the path you are currently on).  Often, an “advice” card can be more helpful, by determining the best way to achieve a desired outcome.

Can you use the tarot to see my thoughts or connect with the dead?
I am not a psychic nor medium, and I will never claim to be–it is yet another common misconception that all tarot card readers fall under these categories.  I am not here to read minds, or talk to spirits (or bilk you out of your money).  I use tarot as a psychological tool to focus in on issues and look for solutions to problems.  I read the cards.  I help people see things.

What types of readings do you offer?
More detailed information on the types of readings offered is given here.

Where can I see some examples of your readings?
Examples of readings can be seen from time to time on my blog.

How do I phrase my question?
More information on phrasing your question is available here.

What if I don’t have a specific question?
If you don’t have a specific question in mind, and want more than a simple “Past, Present, Future” or other 3-Card Reading, I can give you a general reading – either on a specific area of your life or an overview of your life in general.  You must purchase a Full Reading to receive a general reading of more than 3 cards.

What if I can’t pay via PayPal?
Contact me for other options.  I can also accept money orders and cashier’s checks.

Do you offer in-person/instant message/telephone readings?
Not at this time, no.  Currently I only read in person and via e-mail, as I feel these options are the most effective for my purposes.
