How to Become a Psychic Adviser

Professional psychic work is a rewarding path that can help others improve their lives.

Although psychic work has gotten a bad reputation in some corners, it has been a thriving industry for thousands of years. Tarot, palm, rune, astrology and energy readers work daily to fix problems and comfort their clientele through informed psychic work. Since the industry is rife with fakes, it can be hard to know how to become a respectable and profit-rich psychic adviser.

Building a career as a psychic adviser is similar to building a career in other areas. Education is crucial, followed by successful self-marketing, networking and clientele building. To start being a reputable psychic, develop your business by creating a solid base of knowledge, then start generating business.

Instructions

1. Immerse yourself in your medium by learning through experts. Most psychic disciplines have several experts who are known for their innovative approach to advisory. Read their books, attend master classes and seek mentorship opportunities to build a resume and deepen your knowledge.

2. Become comfortable with earning money for using your psychic talent. Many readers feel guilt or remorse for profiting from their skill, which cripples their potential to earn a living wage. Although it's good to give of oneself, it's also necessary to eat and pay the rent. Think of your talent as a tool for creating abundance of all kinds and give it the respect of solid business management.

3. Seek out opportunities to read for people who appreciate psychic services. In the beginning of any business, it's necessary to find people who fully believe in and support your product. Avoid reading for non-believers or those who refuse to pay for your readings, unless you choose to build your resume with some charity and volunteer events.

4. Utilize the Internet for marketing. A blog, website or social networking page spreads the word about what you offer, as well as highlighting your knowledge of the medium. A tarot blog, for instance, can discuss past readings, meditations on different cards and card meanings, as well as including a page of rates and contact information.

5. Visit nearby metaphysical and holistic centers and inquire about offering services to clients. Many of these places love to run event nights to draw in new business, or will display your marketing materials. If you're especially lucky and impress enough people, they may even find room to hire you as a resident adviser.

6. Sign up with a party entertainment service as a party reader. Though this work can be tiring and busy, it often pays very well and presents an opportunity to get new clients. Party readings will be short and should center around a small range of general topics in order to service the maximum number of attendees.

7. Join a phone psychic network. This is the fastest way to become a psychic adviser, as well as being the least reputable. Due to a long history of fraudulent readers joining these businesses, this is probably best left alone unless you really need to get to work quickly. Some services, however, do vet their readers and have a better standing in the field.
