Love is the Law, love under Will
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law
It doesnt interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your hearts longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love-for your dream-for the adventure of being alive.
It doesnt interest me what planets are squaring your moon…
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by lifes betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain-mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy-mine or your own if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to be careful to be realistic or to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesnt interest me if the story you are telling me is true.
I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day.
And if you can source your own life from its presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, Yes.
It doesnt interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.
It doesnt interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.
It doesnt interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments….

I discovered the following AFTER I created my own site: http://www.9ofcups.ca
I was looking around trying to find something and came across a site that was offering similar readings as I newly creted but instead of being around $60 it was $15.
I was disheartened: How could this be?
The readings looked real (afterall quite similar in sentiment to the ones I just developed and this is why I don’t think my ideas are original or mine even if I didn’t see, hear, or consciously know it existed anywhere else) so when I saw the cheap price tag I started to think, “There’s no way someone will put in all that time to read for someone else — you would make more money flipping burgers”. Then it dawned on me that they are COMPUTERIZED readings.
Buried in their site’s policies and disclaimers is this notation:
“Tarot readings include cards & card interpretations. Clients interpret the readings on their own, which is why they are so low in price. Consultations on purchased tarot readings are not offered.”
Now I could just as easily offer that for $9.95 so if you are seeking a computerized package of Tarot readings, astrology readings, and numerology readings — look no further for your cheap read — here’s my email address for that cheapread@tarotreader.ca
I have EXACTLY the same programs as they do (well I do now after I saw what they were offering and then searched for it in computerized format).
What bothers me most is that the majority of people will go to that site believeing that an actual “psychic” — a LIVE psychic is doing their reading when that isn’t the case at all. Only a newbie, teenager, part-timer, masochist, hobbyist, or COMPUTER is going to do CHEAP readings.
Now maybe they offered real readings at one point because there are remnants of it being offered at one point with a “we currently do not offer this reading” at the very end of the explanation of what a live reading involves and who that person is (though we see no picture!).
A professional doesn’t have time to do free readings all the time and their breadth of experience and knowledge should not be devalued by offering such cheap readings. Nevermind, my live and real readings are STILL too cheap for what do and can offer!!
Anyway, my concern is: This is ONE more reason people feel that psychics and readers are frauds but what’s often more upsetting is that seekers believe them. They don’t take the time to explore a site or figure out anything — it’s a “WANT KNOW — COMPLAIN LATER” mentality. But with these types of sites, you won’t get a refund and they don’t care about you personally!! For $15 why should they??
If you are looking for angels that will give free readings and you have no interest in reciprocating their efforts, does that make you a devil?
Cheap Readings: I will send you what I have — a package of comprehensive computerized readings for $9.95 US –> cheapread@tarotreader.ca or you can try some on-line oracles for free.
Genuine Readings: There’s also this option which connects you to a genuine real life Psychic Certified Professional Tarot Reader for a fair price between $50 and $125 depending on the reading package choosen.
It’s your call!

**Differences between a professional and hobbyist
Professional: Main source of income
As a professional you will have the ability to: handle difficult readings and challenging seekers, divine timelines, predict the future with great accuracy (freewill is, of course, always a factor), be specific, say something that you possibly couldn’t of known, be dedicated to continuous learning, improvement, and reading on a constant basis, develop reading relationships, handle energy drains, know other esoteric tools in great depth, and much much more.
If you are interested in professional training, please contact me for details.
Hobbyist: Not a main source of income
As a hobbyist, Tarot will not pervade your life. You will turn to this hobby whenever it suits your mood. You may read for people at parties on a whim rather than being scheduled to read. There will not be many books (i.e. over 6) or cards (i.e. over 3*) on your shelf related to Tarot. You will more than likely have difficulty with reading unique one-off questions or requests. Maybe you have never tried to read Tarot but it’s intriguing and you may decide to take it up as a hobby.
* — collectors are not necessarily hobbyist readers
A hobbyist may eventually become a professional.
