Giving Advice – Getting Advice




Why do people talk to a Psychic, Tarot Reader or Astrologer rather than talking to their friends?

They are looking for an unbiased, non-judgmental evaluation of their specific situation. They are not interested in what applies to anyone else, hence are looking for the sole answer that suits them and only them. 

As an Advisor you must be unbiased and free of any judgement. Your personal ideas, ethics or morals have no place in a conversation that is meant to solve the client’s issue. If it can’t be read from the Cards or Chart or if you do not find a clear answer, you are obliged to tell the person, that you are unable to answer. If you state your personal opinion or give personal advice, make sure that you clarify that what you are just about to say is nothing more, than your personal opinion. This is crucial and this separates good psychic advice from bad card reading. 

When getting a personal reading, always ask yourself if what you are told really applies to you, if it is something you feel comfortable with, something you resonate with.  If you feel, the advice given is something suitable for the 1950’s rather than for the modern age dating culture, it probably wasn’t read from the cards or elsewhere and reflects more of the personal opinion or experience of your advisor than it actually reflects the situation you deal with.

A good reading should always comply with what you feel comfortable with and the advisor must be able despite his or her personal beliefs, ethics and experiences to see you and how you feel in the situation, what you are capable of understanding or doing. It is unnecessary that the advisor understands or even supports you or your actions. The sole purpose of psychic or astrological advice should be to find the specific answer suitable for you and only for you.
