What happens when you read at a SHOP, PARTY, FAIRE (etc.) 02/27/2024

What happens when you read at a SHOP, PARTY, FAIRE (etc.) Hey! What's it like reading professionally? Do you want to read for the public? Today, Nicole and I sat down and explained EXACTLY what you should expect when you get a job reading tarot at a shop, or when you work a booth at a faire, or when you are reading cards at a (friend's) party. We also covered what to expect when you read at a tarot party. The problem was there was so much to tell you we probably didn't get to all of it. This podcast was only supposed to be 20 minutes, but it went for an hour! There is so much excellent advice from real, working professionals here — and this is FREE! Of course this is brought to you by That book is the best textbook for beginners ever written (read the reviews, talk to any of my students—I made this for you to LEARN after all), and by (the tarot bible for professional tarot readers).

Hey! Want to read cards at shops (and events)? 11/27/2023

How to make $20 an hour reading the tarot (RIGHT NOW) 05/04/2023

How to make $20 an hour reading the tarot (RIGHT NOW) Would you like a life of being paid to read tarot anywhere in the world? This is the lesson for you! $20 an hour (cash, paid "right now" versus at the end of the week—or month) may not sound like much, but how many people do you know who get paid $20 an hour to read cards? Most people never will. That's who this lesson is for. I was a bit ranty this episode, but please understand that I get people all the time whining that they can't afford $10 for tarot classes that will teach them to earn $60 to $150 an hour reading tarot. If you need money right now, you need to listen to this episode. I take you by the hand and show you how to start with a deck of cards—assuming you are flat broke. This is not one of those "get rich" motivational guru scams, where they don't tell you that you already have to have a $10k investment portfolio or you need to have an assortment of resources before you actually turn a profit. IF YOU HAVE A DECK OF CARDS, YOU CAN DO THIS — even if you are something of a crappy tarot reader. If you are already making $50 or $60 an hour consistently reading tarot, this lesson is not for you, and you should skip it. But for anyone who is not making at least $35 an hour working for some corporation, this is a GREAT WAY to add to your income, and even end up quitting your job in a few months, if you follow these steps carefully, consistently, and conscientiously. Look: I can't guarantee you will make money any more than I can guarantee that the sun will rise in the sky tomorrow. Those two things are out of my hands. NO ONE CAN guarantee things like that, and if they say otherwise, they are lying. All I can do is give you the tools and instructions, and say "go get 'em, tiger!" The rest is up to you. But in this lesson, I lay out a step-by-step plan for you to start right now at $20 an hour, and quickly work your way to $30 and hour, and then $40 and $60 an hour. This isn't rocket science, but it does take effort and commitment. I will ask you one more time: Would you like a life of being paid to read tarot anywhere in the world? If your answer is yes, this is a great place to start. Another great place to start is to get in school! LET ME HELP YOU by teaching you everything I know. Go to www.easytarotlessons.com and give me a dollar. That pays for your first month of school. After that, classes are only ten dollars a week (+ a small fee that goes to PayPal). STOP dreaming about being psychic, and get in school! Here are the podcast notes: Make $20/hour Reading Tarot RIGHT NOW! (Dusty Podcast 1): How to make $20/hour reading tarot right now! (Also pick up numerous repeat clients.) This session is for anyone who can't give me $10 weekly to teach you. If you just gave one full reading a month ($48), that will grant you a month's worth of education. Here's how to start attracting clients. All you need is a deck of cards. DO THIS. Get yourself a tarot deck Start by giving 1 card readings. Price is $1 per card. Offering $1 readings. 3 minute timers. Alway be shuffling. shuffle while talking to the client. Then pull out 1 card, and then 3 minutes answer their question. Make sure you have a timer. When the timer ends, so does your reading. If they want more, they can pay. ——— 2 card reading for $2. 2 minutes per card. 3 card reading for 9 minutes. And so forth… $1 readings may seem demeaning. But let's be clear, $20 is more than most people make. If you do a great reading, you'll get tips. If you're giving a Celtic cross reading, and it's only $10 (which is a STEAL by the way!). You've got 30 minutes to sit and read. You want your client's jaws to drop further and further. People with money will want more than a $1 reading. Your first 100 readings may be worth $500, as every reading won't be $1, you might end up averaging out to $5 per reading... After you've got some money, keep it up, but now its $1 for 2 minutes, etc. $3 for 6 minutes, $5 for 10 minutes. When your dance card is full, and overwhelmed, raise your prices again. Now you've also got repeat clients. Consider selling PACKAGES. A block of 4 weekly readings, 1 reading for 4 weeks -- give them a little discount. At the end of every reading, give them a business card and say… I’d like to help you in the future. When you do get paid to give weekly readings -- a very slight discount (not more than 10%). However, give them a little bit more time, give them an action plan, checklist. Make the subtle transition, then they will put you on retainer with that client. They'll keep coming back. You've got 4 sessions to WOW them. Right now, you are just using the common man as a personal psychic. When you've got too many people, you are raising your rates. Make them feel valuable, then they will pay you for the rest of your life. If they agree to pay you monthly, give you an extra reading every other month. Don't cheapen yourself for affiliates, or mega discounts, etc. Just farm organic clients. This is how to keep your clients coming back. Keep developing more skills that will bring them more value, year by year, the quality increases, you can always charge more. Always give back to the community, and show the world you're a generous person with a generous soul! /episode/index/show/easytarotlessons/id/26745477

Live tarot workshop series: When to use a significator, what to do when cards fly out while shuffling and more! 04/14/2023

Live tarot workshop series: When to use a significator, what to do when cards fly out while shuffling and more! Tarot Workshop series: Tarot Significators Q&A Summary: Today we examine WHAT a significator is (for professional tarot readers, it is rarely a card), how to use one (or more), when to use one, and we cover what to do when cards sly out of the deck. LOTS of extras revealed along the way. DETAILS: Q: How to tell if a card is upright or reversed when they fly out during shuffling? A:- Some readers refer to these cards as "Jumpers". - Usually happens when you're hyper-focused Recommendations: 1. Discount statistics/law of probability. Just because something happens, doesn't mean it's divine providence, not everything is a "sign", if it is you will know it. If you miss it -- it's okay. 2. Do we flip it, do we turn it? Most people turn the card over regardless -- because subconsciously we need to make order so we end up flipping the card upright to see what it is. Mentions of the "no-spread" technique, for more advanced students. ** Additional notes: To get the most confidence out of this, stop for a moment, really focus on what you were thinking of the moment or prior to the card flipping out. How does that card relate to that thought? Does it make more sense if it were reversed versus upright? If you can't find instant, clarity, resounding voice or sensation in your head of "this card is telling me this.. therefore reversed or upright makes sense". Set the card off to the side and keep going. Don't ignore the card, just set it aside. Continue to shuffle with that card on the back burner in your mind. Allow input from the peanut gallery, as long as the card that flips out does not stop you in your tracks midway and/or distract you from the rest of the reading. How do we know if "jumper" card is meant to be reversed or upright? You don't, but context helps fill in the blanks. How relevant is the card (in both angles) to the question at hand? Until the card makes sense, don't stress out. Q: Can we go over multiple significators, and when to use them? A: Okay so why do we use significators in the first place? A Significator can represent "this is who we're reading about". Remember, if we have to memorize anything, memorize card position meanings, not card meanings. It is one card that sits outside of the spread OR it is the first card of the spread specifically in the celtic cross. We don't always need it, sometimes it is a lot simpler without it — but really it's whatever works for you and the reading at hand. *** When choosing a significator, preferably select one from the 2's to 10's, it provides more personality to the individual. Ask yourself... Is this the circumstance the person is in, how does it relate back to the question? Does this card match what this person is going through now? Significators do not need to be tarot cards at all. The greatest significator ever is a photograph. Ever heard of psychometry? Not to say that the tarot card itself is the actual person. Remember the Tarot is a tool to help your intuition. It's like Astrology, it's not about people's personality, it's a tool to help people answer questions. We just happen to be talking about people all the time. We don't just assign or pull a random card as a significator. The significator is a grasp of who this person is in relation to the person asking the question. If you don't have time.. just take a piece of paper, write KoS (King of Swords). Transmute, translate that KoS into a psychic image, your best guess to what "Bob" would appear like. Picturing Bob, or anthropomorphizing this description I'm given. I'm telescoping on Bob's energy. So that's a rundown of how or why we would use a significator. -- Example -- A mother wants to know if her daughter is interested in marrying loser bob. In mothers mind, this guy is unacceptable or unworthy of her daughter. She's interested in knowing how it's going to go? She wants to know what's going on. Simple answer is to do a "this or that" spread. This spread for Bob, that spread for the unnamed daughter. We're asking a central or overall question about how this relationship is going to be for each person. Because we're asking about people. When do you need focal points? Ask yourself that when using multiple significators. When information gets too convoluted, if you can't just do spreads consecutively, if you need to have multiple points of references, that is where multiple significators work. Q: Am I practicing the connection with the cards by using card per month and card per day? A: A 2 card spread — Card of the month, card of the day. There's only so much you can pull out from one card. Sometimes we are asking too much with too little tools. These and more questions were addressed her, live.
