Yes, my base pricing is $125.00 per hour for Tarot. $150 for Astrology per hour (Requires personal information & a Chart will need to be run & studied). For Parties, $200 per hour with a 2 hour minimum within 25 miles. For additional travel & other circumstances,pricing to be discussed. On Thumbtack, I have been offering an introductory 1 hour reading, by phone, for $60.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process is simple. Phone consultations work best for my customers in general. At an appointed time, the client calls and I ask if they would like the reading recorded (I can then email an MP3 version for download) We connect by clearing the mind through 3 deep breaths. I will then shuffle the cards as the client concentrates on the issues at hand. The best question is to ask yourself "What do I need to look at right now". Regardless of specific questions the client might have, the reading will likely address all of what needs to be dealt with including the questions at hand.The client is asked when they want the shuffle to stop. A card spread is laid out. Generally I use the Celtic cross with my own twists. For specific questions, other spreads are used. It is best for the client to hold their questions or input until the end of the reading which is when I ask if there are any questions. I do reserve a time towards the end for questions. The reading will last approximately 1 hour. Sessions are prepaid.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My studies in the Tarot & Astrology have been ongoing for the majority of my adult life. In the mid-80's I began studying through several different disciplines and approaches. I found I resonated best with a Psychology oriented Astrology with a Jungian & Humanistic Approach. I have taken courses with classic Astrologers ( Robert Fuller- Medieval Astrology, J Lee Lehman-Horary Astrology among others), and keep a library of over 500 Astrology Books. Amongst my favorite authors are: Dane Rudhyar, Liz Greene, Robert Hand, Isabel Hickey, Donna Cunningham,Dana Gerhardt, Etc. And studied Tarot through many mentors, including Germaine Greer, Sheilaa Hite, Roberta Savitt amongst my biggest influences. I have been a member of the NCGR for several years. I have been doing readings for private clients for over 25 years. I have read at Stores in Los Angeles and Miami Beach as an "in House" Reader & I have been hired for many parties and events, big & small. For Example, The Grand re-opening of the Sheraton Bal Harbour was a grand scale event featuring a performance by the Beach Boys. I have been a reader at several Restaurant openings, psychic fairs, birthday parties, nightclubs and small intimate gatherings.
