Ever get a tarot reading and feel the reader was dead on accurate?  Or how about this scenario – you get a reading and nothing makes sense at all.  Yet other people you know raved about this person.  Did the reader suck or were you impossible to read?

Here’s the honest truth: not every reader is right for every person.  As a professional tarot reader, it’s very humbling to admit that you cannot read for everyone.  But it’s a fact that some people’s vibes just don’t mesh.  For example, I do not like to read for super negative thinkers.  If someone is overly cynical, they won’t like my practical, no-nonsense style because it does not conform to their world view.  Therefore, it is best for them to find someone who may be more sympathetic to their way of thinking.

Any time you seek out a tarot reading, there is always the risk that the reading won’t be meaningful for you.  However, there are a few measures you can take as a client to insure that you get the right person for the job.

Get a referral.  Word of mouth is often the best way to get insights on how the reader works.  If a loved one had a comfortable and positive experience with the reader, you may as well.

Get clear on what “type” of reader you wish to see.  For example, some tarot readers (myself included) are intuitive while others may work with a system or perhaps be more esoteric.  You’ll be very disappointed if the type of reading you want is not what you are getting no matter how talented the reader is.

Ask questions.  Most readers are more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Don’t be afraid to ask about how they read, what questions they will or won’t answer as well as anything that may be of concern to you.  This will help you to get a feel as to whether or not you will be compatible.

Research. If the reader has a website, check it out.  Does the website look professional? Can you get an idea of the person behind the site?  Do they provide testimonials?  Most will provide a FAQ section which may give you a clear picture about how they operate as well as their personality.  If they have a blog, see if you enjoy their writing.  If they are on social media, this is a superb way to view how they interact with other people – not just clients but others in their industry.  Do as much research as you can to make sure they are someone you’d like to do business with.

Trust your instincts.  If they don’t feel right for you, then take a pass.  Keep looking until you find the perfect person for you.

Keep an open mind.  You may be surprised to know that there are many talented readers who may be under the radar or overlooked.  For example, don’t be put off by their age or background.  Some of the best readings I have ever had have been from people who were young or not even in the industry.

Remember, that any time you are using any service it is always important to be a good consumer.  Know what you want, ask questions, shop around, take your time and get informed.  With this strategy you are more likely to have a tarot experience that is insightful, helpful and enjoyable.

Blessings!
