How to Read Tarot Professionally

Many people who read tarot professionally claim to have been guided by a higher power. While this may be true, there are numerous practical concerns that one must consider when going into business. Learn to make tarot reading your career, the earthly way.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Learn tarot reading. Classes are available in some places but many just learn from books or a friend.

2. Practice on people once you learn the basic art of tarot reading. Like all crafts, reading tarot requires practice. It is recommended that you do not consider turning professional until you have read at least 100 successful fortunes for a wide range of people.

3. Research the laws of the town you plan to work at. Localities often have restrictions and ordinances, limiting how and where you can do business.

4. Get work. There are many companies out there who collect clients and then forward them to you. These require a working internet connection and phone line. Or, freelance and do readings at parties, conventions and restaurants.

5. Build a client base. Spending time making each client feel appreciated and giving good readings will keep people coming back. Always act professionally. This will help solidify your business model.

Tips & Warnings

• Anyone reading from home should take special care not to put their personal safety at risk. Always be careful when letting strangers into your home.
