General Questions

Do you give free Tarot readings or free psychic readings?

This is sometimes a delicate question, because there are no absolutes. Many people will say that in being a spiritual counselor and healer or possessing a psychic gift, one should never charge or be charged for this service.

However, all talents or abilities are gifts from God / the Universe and given to each one of us. Moreover, there is no church or synagogue, nor priest, rabbi, reverend, minister or pastor who can exist to provide spiritual services, if no income is derived in some fashion. Being labeled a donation is simply semantics. They too have rent, operating, and living expenses.

Who doesn’t want something to be free? However, until the world is on a barter system of talent, ability, goods or services exchange, we all need income. None of us would like it much if our boss, company, or customers expected us to work for free. An instance of “free” that suddenly doesn’t sound so appealing if it is requested of us!

That said; I also feel that there should always be an equal exchange of energy. I give a real psychic reading to my clients and I receive from them. They in turn, receive from me and give to me. This is balanced energy.

I would be highly suspect of psychic websites or psychic reading networks that offer free trial, free psychic readings, free Tarot readings, free psychic chats, free online chat, free love readings; the first 3 minutes are free or “free” anything and for good reason. You can see why by reading my article, how to find a real psychic and avoid being scammed.

How accurate are you with psychic / Tarot card readings? Are you ever wrong?

As the saying goes, the proof is in the pudding. I have repeat clients, client referrals, and client testimonials that would indicate my level of accuracy as a psychic / Tarot card reader. Accuracy is a relative term though, and depends upon your perceptions, expectations, the way you process the information provided and the actions you take.

At times, a real psychic can misinterpret information they intuit or glean from Tarot cards, but our clients can also misinterpret what they hear too. I act with integrity and my goal is to always provide the best, most accurate psychic reading possible, as I feel the intuitive / psychic information received is meant to impart profound spiritual guidance. Keeping detailed notes and/or a recording will allow a basis for your own assessment.

As a psychic, can you read everyone?

This is a tough question to answer, because it’s a two-way street. I might tune into someone well, and provide an accurate reading, but if the information provided isn’t what they wanted to hear, or isn’t in their consciousness yet, they will feel that I am at fault, rather than consider their own inability to accept.

We all have good and low energy days.  If I am unable to connect with someone’s psychic energy in that moment, it doesn’t mean that I can’t at another time. We simply reschedule. A real psychic and one who is ethical will admit this, rather than continue and provide a subpar reading that serves no one.

What length of time do I need for a psychic reading?

Most of my clients prefer a minimum of 30 minutes for their reading and I agree this is optimum. It allows enough time to cover the most important issues and to ask some additional questions without feeling hurried or rushed. A 45 or 60 minute reading is not usually necessary unless issues are many or complicated.

How often should I get a psychic or Tarot reading?

There is no prescription for how often one should get a psychic Tarot reading. Ultimately, one needs to trust their intuition or feelings about this. When asked, I advise my clients to get a psychic reading if they feel confused or lost, big life changes are occurring, relationships are difficult, they need some clarity or direction due to several issues going on, or they feel in need of spiritual guidance. Ideally, one should not create dependence, rather, allow time for reflection or understanding and seek assistance only when you feel it is needed.

Do I need a question(s) in mind before I get a Tarot card or psychic reading?

I don’t require any questions in which to focus upon. In all likelihood, whatever is concerning you will show up in your phone psychic reading.

Many Tarot card readers or psychics can’t read for someone unless they have your question(s) in mind first. Although this may be a real need for some real psychics, to me, it also raises a potential red flag.

Before you get a psychic reading from anyone, make sure you have found a real psychic who will give you a genuine psychic phone reading. I’ve written a few articles that are helpful to ascertain this; such as, ask a psychic or how to spot a phony psychic.

What can I expect if I get a psychic or Tarot reading with you?

The truth as I see or feel it! The reason I chose this particular path (or it chose me) is to help empower you by providing clarity, direction, and an awakening to self-awareness by exploring consciousness and conscious choices, thereby, assisting you to achieve the best possible choices for yourself. In turn, this facilitates spiritual enlightenment, healing, happiness, a sense of peace and a balance of mind, body, spirit, and soul.

Living a real and authentic life is a process and it takes awareness and work. My feeling has always been that you will find me, when you are ready for someone like me.

Ask a psychic questions
What kind of psychic are you?

I have to laugh when I hear this question, as part of the answer lay in overcoming commonly held misconceptions. A real psychic does not know all things at all times. We know some things, sometimes, other things at other times and often, we have no idea why certain things come at certain times, they just do.

We probably don’t know what someone had for breakfast, unless they’re wearing some of it, and we often forget where we parked our car. Most of us dress in jeans, not loud caftans, some wear a baseball cap or beret, not a sparkly turban, and if we wear makeup at all, it isn’t usually applied with a spatula or spray gun. Sometimes, we aren’t all here, figuratively speaking; therefore, it’s no surprise if we appear or sound a bit eccentric.

If you decide to choose me as your psychic Tarot reader / spiritual counselor, it’s probably because you have read my website and can clearly understand what I am about and that I am a real and reputable psychic, who provides real psychic phone readings. If you come back to me again, it’s probably because I was honest and accurate, I acted with integrity, I cared about you, I enabled you to make better choices for yourself, I was spiritually illuminating / uplifting, you felt clarity or understanding, you really liked me, or I provided you with some wind so you could fly


A real psychic can and does capture a lot of information in all areas of your life, including people, love / relationships, family, events, situations, work / career and finances, but we aren’t magicians. We can’t manipulate or change your life, or make those things you wish for to appear or get rid of those things you wish would disappear.

We can; however, see trends and help point you in a direction that feels right and better to you or highlight those directions that might not be. A real psychic can identify emotions and attachments, provide enlightenment, guidance or spiritual counseling and always, we can pray with you and for you, but, regardless of what we say, you hold all the power to disregard, change, perceive, take action or not, transcend false beliefs, or make your dreams come true.

You say that you are a clairaudient and clairvoyant psychic. What do these terms mean?

Clairaudience means “clear hearing” or “hearing outside of the range for normal perception.” This is how I hear names or how some information comes in an “audible form.” Clairvoyance means “clear sight or visibility” or the ability by an “inner sight” to gain insight / information about people, locations, objects or events outside of the range for normal perception or senses.

Being an intuitive or psychic and trying to pass this information on to others is not as easy as one might think. Clairvoyant or clairaudient information usually comes in at lightning speed – for me anyway.

My clairvoyant visions are similar to what we may see in a dream; sometimes very vivid, sometimes not, sometimes a whole scene plays out, sometimes only bits and pieces. Often, what I receive makes no sense to me – but it often does to those who receive the information.

With my clairaudient ability, I have to be very quick to discern exactly what I hear or I’ll lose a part of it. In other words, if I hear the name Katherine, but don’t hear / capture it quickly enough, I might say the name Karen. Both have the same hard K sound and end with the same en sound.

In an ideal intuitive-psychic world, I could see and hear everything perfectly and exactly what I ask for, but it doesn’t work that way.

Have you provided psychic / Tarot card readings for people who are skeptics and/or don't believe in psychics or Tarot cards? If so, what happens?

I am a real psychic and I provide real psychic readings. This also makes me a target for those who don’t believe or are skeptical. My article, are psychic abilities real, goes into this issue more deeply. Suffice to say, I have done psychic readings for some who are skeptical. Usually these encounters go very well; however, I remember one such man whose initial behavior was quite belligerent and insulting at his approach. Almost taunting me, he made it very clear that he thought what I do is a joke and his sitting before me was for his amusement.

When I told him that he was cheating on his wife and stealing from his business partner, his chin nearly dropped to the floor. There were other things said to him as well and I feel quite certain that his attitude has since changed.

Does this happen all of the time? No. I don’t do this work to prove anything to anyone. I do it to hopefully help others. I am a real human being with real human frailties just like you, not omnipotent. In the grand scheme of things, maybe he needed to reassess his life and choices made thus far and I was just the messenger.

Some people have an aversion to the word “psychic”, psychics in general, or the use of Tarot cards. What are your feelings about this?

I suspect any aversion felt is due to preconceived notions, a particular religious upbringing, a lack of education or knowledge, or myriad other reasons. In other words, many people don’t like what they either know nothing about or don’t understand. Most of this stems from believing what they’ve been told or have seen on television, rather than learned through personal experience, investigation, or education.

Tarot cards incorporate essential Truth(s) and spiritual teachings within their symbolism, which is contained in all religions; without exclusivity to one, as well as astrology and astrological aspects and they do not issue or represent judgments or control of any kind. They describe the real human condition, which encompasses all human experiences and they provide profound spiritual guidance, which is Universal and equal to all human beings.

What can I do to make him or her love me?

We cannot make someone love us and regardless of his or her capability or incapability, it has no bearing whatsoever on your own lovability. Always know who you are and that you are a loving being−deserving to receive love and to give love in return. The most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself.

In my opinion, real and true love is unconditional. Anyone who tries to manipulate another does not truly love them. When we love another, we want what they feel is the best for them, no matter what that might be—whether agreeable to us or not, and even if that means we must let them go in the process. You might need to strengthen your sense of self, in order to attract a mutually loving relationship with another.

Will you judge my life choices or me?

Genuinely and deeply spiritual; I understand that every soul has a unique path. I am very open-minded and will not judge you or the choices you make. I am accepting of all peoples, religions / spirituality, lifestyles, choice and beliefs, and my Tarot / psychic readings reflect this. To understand more fully where I am coming from in this regard, please read my article post “All you need is love and a dog.”

Skeptical about psychics
Do you provide a copy of my recorded Tarot card / psychic reading with you?

As a convenience to you, a copy of your recorded phone psychic reading is provided for FREE. If you’d like a free copy, please check the appropriate box when making your appointment request. Files are saved as MP3 and a link will be provided via email by Dropbox. The link access and file will be permanently deleted 1 or 2 days after it’s provided. If you’d like to save the recording, you must download it ASAP, as it will otherwise be unrecoverable.

Please understand; I am not responsible for any glitches or non-recordings that may occur. Keeping precise notes as a backup is well advised. Please read Terms/Conditions/Disclaimer/Privacy Policy for more information regarding recorded readings.

How good is a psychic reading over the phone? Shouldn’t the person be present?

Intuition or psychic ability is energy and everything in the Universe is composed of energy, including us. That we are all separate from each other or anything else in the Universe is an illusion. We are all connected and there is no time, space, or distance between us. For this reason, a real psychic reading by phone is no different to an in-person or face-to-face psychic reading.

Can you see or talk to people who have passed on?

I don’t advise getting a reading with me if you are specifically looking to connect with a deceased loved one. My area of expertise is with the Tarot and accessing real life concerns.

Energy is energy. All psychic impressions I receive about a person, tend to look, sound, or feel the same to me, whether they are alive or have passed away. Therefore, the reason why I can’t differentiate.

What I hear comes through my clairaudient ability and this will often be a name, whether theirs or someone else’s. I also get some or all of these perceptions via clairvoyance: physical characteristics, items they wear/wore, items which are meaningful to them, locations, etc. I am also clairsentient / empathic, which enables me to feel what they feel.

I have no control over what / who does or doesn’t come through. I also have no control over the amount or type of information received. I simply get what I get. The psychic insight provided to my clients are exactly those impressions that I receive.

Are you a pet psychic / animal psychic?

You might be surprised or skeptical; but animals, like people, read energy and send it. At one time, I provided Tarot readings at a wonderful coffee shop called Aroma in Studio City, CA. Since it has an animal-friendly outdoor cafĂ©, many dogs were always around. Although I don’t call myself an animal or pet psychic, on numerous occasions, I read the energy / thoughts / images that these doggies sent. When the images came, I informed the “anipal” / guardian of what I saw.

Sometimes it would be a description of the kitchen or area where the dog ate, what his or her bowl looked like, what type of food they received – and if they liked or disliked it. I would also pick up their general / overall feelings and if they were or felt ill, or images of how or where they are walked. I can tell you this, some clearly indicated that they don’t like it when their chain is jerked against their neck or they are thrust from one side to another during a walk!

As with people, I do energy / Reiki healing with our “anipals” too.

I see sites that advertise psychic love spells. Do you do love spells?

No, I absolutely do not and I highly recommend you stay far away from anyone who claims to do spells or remove curses. Read my article, “psychic scams: the worst of the worst.”

My feeling is that everything comes from within and manifests outward. If one has forgiven others for past hurts, has let go of false beliefs or expectations about self and others, and believes they are ready to attract a real, healthy, loving relationship, and is welcoming of one, this energy shift should be love spell and energy intent enough.

Do you do psychic health readings?

I do prayer, Reiki healing and other energy work for my clients. I do not provide psychic readings specifically regarding health.

Do you have an 800 or 900 telephone line?

No, I don’t. Payment for my services is made at the time of your appointment request. This way you maintain full control, everyone knows what to expect and there are no surprises. You choose the amount of time for your reading and you are charged for that amount of time, period.

Once your appointment is paid/confirmed, I will call you.

Do you offer gift certificates?

At this time, I don’t offer gift certificates.

Appointments

What are your hours?

I am available from 10:00 am to 11:00 pm Eastern, 9:00 am to 10:00 pm Central, 8:00 am to 9:00 pm Mountain and 7:00 am to 8 pm Pacific, every day (with exception to vacation. See below).

These are the hours that I make myself available to you, but this does not mean that I am available at all times during these hours. I may have existing client appointments, other events, or when posted on my website, I might be on vacation. Be sure to indicate two different dates on your appointment request and for each date, you can choose as many time periods as you would like to indicate your availability.

If I am away or on vacation, it will be posted on my website in advance. During this period, I will NOT be available to reply to appointment requests or do readings. I suggest you either wait to submit a request or expect that you will not receive a response until I return.

Why do I have to indicate two different dates and several time periods for each date on my appointment request?

There is only one of me and more of you who are also located in many different time zones.

I operate as first come, first served; based on paid submissions made through my website. Since it is your date and time needs versus my existing schedule; the best solution is to indicate two different dates and then choose as many time periods as you would like to indicate your availability for both dates. With this, we will have a far better chance at connecting in a way that works for everyone. I will do my best to accommodate more immediate needs, but this isn’t always possible. Providing at least a day’s notice is optimum.

Can I make an appointment over the phone?

No. All appointment requests must be made through my website. No exceptions.

Can I make an appointment for someone else?

No. Each person must make their own appointments, using their email address. I do not accept appointments made on behalf of another.

What happens if I am late for my appointment?

Except for one time, I have not missed or been late for an appointment in over 23-years. This is a scheduling necessity for me, but I also view it as mutual respect and an honoring of one’s commitments. I expect the same from my clients.

There are times when we are all late due to events beyond our control. A timely call or email is expected and appreciated; however, please understand that if I have another client or other events scheduled after your appointment, I cannot give extra time to make up for your lateness.

If you are late for your appointment, it will cost you equally in lost time. For example: 15 minutes late for a confirmed 30-minute reading, will now equal a 15-minute reading.

What if I miss my appointment time?

I do my best to treat everyone fairly, myself included. As a confirmed appointment, my time was set aside for you and I am there for you. If you miss your appointment for any reason or request a change/cancellation without providing a 24-hour email notice (in advance of your date/time), you will forfeit any payment made. NO exceptions. Additionally, if you wish to reschedule, it will be at full cost again.

I respect that your time is valuable, and please respect that mine is too. Your understanding is appreciated.

How do I reschedule or cancel my confirmed appointment?

Reply to me via the email “appointment confirmation” that I sent to you and indicate that you need to reschedule the appointment or cancel it. For either case, it must be date/time stamped a minimum of 24-hours prior to your scheduled appointment. Given that emails are sometimes lost or online mishaps occur, make sure that you have received an acknowledgement email from me within the same 24-hour period; otherwise, your payment is forfeited (not refundable).

Payments

How do I pay?

I do not collect or store your personal and private credit / debit card information.

I use PayPal to process all payments. It is secure, private, easy to use, global, and you DON’T need a PayPal account to use it.

PayPal: You will be redirected to PayPal’s secure website. Whether or not you are a PayPal account holder, you can pay via any major debit/credit card, e-check, or use your PayPal account (if you have one).

Please note: payments made via e-check will delay your appointment date/time until the check has cleared your bank.

Next, you and I will both receive an email receipt from PayPal indicating if your payment was made successfully. If a receipt of payment is not received from PayPal, it is possible that you did not hit all submit buttons as prompted or there was a problem with your chosen payment method, in which case it was likely not successful.

Once I have received the email from PayPal indicating your payment was successful, I will set up your appointment date and time based on the 1st or 2nd date(s) and time(s) you chose when you submitted your appointment request, and send you an email, which is your appointment confirmation.

If you do not receive a confirmation email from me right away, please don’t worry, as I might be with clients. You will receive it ASAP. Also, once sent, it might go to your spam folder, so be sure to check there.  

On rare occasion, I might not be able to do your reading at the time(s) or on the dates(s) you chose. If this happens, I will email you to reschedule. If we can’t reschedule, I will provide a full refund for your paid reading (with exception to below).

If I am away or on vacation, it will be posted on my website in advance. During this period, I will NOT be available to reply to appointment requests or do readings. I suggest you either wait to submit a request or expect that you will not receive a response until I return.

Do you give refunds?

I will happily issue a full refund for a confirmed/paid reading that I was unable to provide due to circumstances out of my control. Any other refunds issued are less PayPal fees.

If you wish to cancel a paid appointment, a 24-hour email notice is required prior to the scheduled date/time, to which you must/will receive acknowledgement from me via email in order to receive a refund (less PayPal fees).

Given that emails are sometimes lost; within the same 24 hour period, make sure that you have received a return email from me acknowledging your request; otherwise, the full payment is forfeited. NO refunds are issued for missed appointments or once a reading has been provided.
