Frequently Asked Questions 

How do I get a phone reading? Just call my number during my schedule, and I will walk you through the rest.

Why did I go to voicemail? Like any business, when it rains, it pours.. so if you happen to reach my voicemail, I’m busy with a client. Try back in fifteen minutes, if I’m still on with a client, leave a message to request a call back. As I become available, I will gladly return your call.

Can I get a receipt? Of course you can, just ask me.

How does the billing for your service work? I accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express, and Debit Bank Cards on my business merchant account. I also accept personal checks, money orders, and PayPal for prepaid sessions. The required information that I will need to process your card  is: birthdate, full name, card number, expiration date, three digit security code, billing address, phone number, and a valid email address. Information is always kept private, and never solicited or sold. Your card is be processed and authorized while you wait. Once the verification process is confirmed, the reading will begin.

What exactly is a billed session? You are paying me for my time. I provide a service that consists of quality talk time and intelligent conversation. This time may be used to receive a personal reading, but it may also be used for practical advice from an outside source, spiritual guidance, friendly chit chat, nonjudgmental support of a sensitive matter, life mentoring, etc. Maybe all you need to do is vent, and require a listening ear. I can do that too.

What about ugly billing surprises? My rates are stated clearly and upfront – for the main purpose to avoid billing surprises. After your card is authorized and the billing is out of the way, the session will begin.. and will end when you close the reading and the conversation to hang up the phone. Easy as pie. Time is what you are billed for, and I’m able to keep my rates fair when this is respected. And although I do my best to keep an eye on the time and your money spent, I suggest you do the same.

Are you going to request more money from me? Absolutely not. If I did that, I wouldn’t have lasted in business this long. Know that you do not have to worry about emptying your savings account with me because I do not remove curses, nor do I sell magical crystals or miracle trinkets that promise to fulfill your dreams in love and money.

What does satisfaction guaranteed mean? Since you pay for my time, I do not provide refunds when time has been serviced and used. Instead, I generously apply an AUTOMATIC $10.00 discount to your FIRST 15 minutes. This provides fairness, for both you and me, as well as an opportunity to display professionalism and integrity of my business. After  fifteen minutes, you can either close the reading, or continue with a longer session – and you still get that ten dollars knocked off your total bill!

How long have you been in business? Once upon a time, I wanted to be a full-time wife and mom, while working my own schedule and writing my paycheck. I left the corporate world and became a freelance graphic artist in 1995, and by 2002 the metaphysical world became a calling in career direction. I legally registered my business, and have been doing it ever since. If you are interested in building your own small business set-up like mine, I’m available for small business consulting and mentoring to help get you there.

Are you any good? Because I am only the messenger, I let paying customers be the judge of my performance, as their comments have kept me inspired, but also in business.

I’m afraid of being scammed and overcharged. You don’t know me, so that’s totally understandable. Internet shopping can be a nervous experience. I can only encourage you to get to know me better first. Read through my website, subscribe to my blog, follow me on some of your favorite social networks, and check out my testimonials page with original words from some of my customers. I’ve provided as much information that I can, to give you assurance and positive declaration about my ethics and integrity of my word and business.

 

I don’t need a reading, I just want to talk for free and share my latest. I am honored to be of service as your listening board, personal confidant, spiritual advisor, ‘mom’, or best friend, as I genuinely care, and have your best interest at heart. But when I pick up the phone, it means that I will sacrifice my time, and put my life on hold.. so that I may help you tend with yours. The amount of time that I spend on you, is my business, and without re-embursement, it is a loss at my expense. I am humbled to have your trust and friendship, but when I am not working, my free time and energy belong to me.

Can I get a free question? Sorry, but no, this is a professional service. Free questions demand a lot of time and energy from me. I write and give much away on my blog Cosmic Dirt, which you can get a free subscription of it here.

Do you accept tips, personal gifts, donations, testimonials? Although it is not necessary, Kindness is always appreciated.

My topic is very sensitive, awkward, and embarrassing. No problem, my purpose is to listen, help, and guide.

Is there anything that you won’t talk about? I don’t engage in illegal topics, nor do I advise in medicine or legal issues because I am not professionally trained. Instead, I provide 1-800-crisis numbers for your convenience. Other than that, just be yourself and let’s talk. Considering my age, a lifetime of mistakes and experiences, and the private ‘hush hush’ that others have shared with me, I’m not easily shocked. Personal affairs and private secrets are my business.

Are you honest? YES. Sometimes, too honest. I’m a Sagittarian/Leo Moon/Libra Ascendant. I’m blunt, compassionate, and promise to give it to you straight. Truth is my business. Plus, if I’m going to help you, honesty is a must.

I loved my reading! Can I share a testimonial? Yes absolutely! Just send an email with your name, comment, and photo (which I’ll crop to fit). Thank you!

Are you a witch, a demon, or an angel? Yes, yes, and yes. Seriously. Despite my response, people will gossip and form their own opinion. Know that I am aware and spiritually awake. I’m also conscious of my own shite. I am a humble servant of the earth and cosmos, creating awareness for balance, healing, and love.

Are psychic readings evil? No. Readings are conducted by people, and it is the heart of the reader that controls the intention, not their tools to mastermind. Kind hearts help others. ‘Not so kind’ hearts help themselves. My goal is to help you to be your very best.

Do you believe in God? Yes. I was brought up Catholic, but expanded my religious interests toward wicca, paganism, hinduism, buddhism, and spirituality. I believe in a God and a Goddess, Buddha, Jesus, a Higher Power, Oneness, a Divine Source, and the Universe. I believe in the heavens, the cosmos, as well as rights for humans, animals, and nature. I believe in unity and balance, with kindness and respect. The divine love and the light in me, honors the divine light and love in you. Namaste.

Can I mail/email you some photos to help you with my reading? Absolutely.

Favorite Quote? In the end, only kindness matters. Jewel

What should I know about you as my reader? I’m a creative visionary, and a soulful sensitive. Energy vibrations from outside influences affect me, from weather and nature, to other individuals. It’s wonderful for readings. But while I am ultra-friendly and outgoing, I also require private, reclusive time of solitude to keep my balance. Diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue in the early nineties, it taught me that my time and energy are my greatest wealth.

Will I speak with you, or with someone else? This isn’t some large corporate office with mega-super prices or rotating dispatchers. This is my own small business that I’ve built from scratch, so I’m the only person who you will ever speak with for a personalized and intimate ‘one on one’ experience.

How can I get the most from my reading? You know, more bang for the buck? Awesome question! Be attentive. Listen to what you need to know, versus what you hope to hear. Take notes. Respect your budget. Use your time wisely. Write your questions down prior to the reading. If you are on a budget, ask burning questions right away. If time permits, specifics fit in afterwards. Put work, driving, shopping, etc., on hold so that you are in the present moment. Be responsible, keep track of your own time. There are no refunds when time has already been used. Be mindful and respectful of your time, to be mindful and respectable of my time. Respect helps me to keep my rates fair and affordable for everyone.

I can’t decide which reading is best for me: phone, email, or in person. Can you help?  There is no difference in the way that I perform my readings, I always include my intuitive senses, tarot, astrology, energy vibrations, and whatever else I feel can help. As a person who is naturally sensitive, I do prefer the comforts of my own quiet surroundings, as it separates me from all other activity and distractions.

• Phone readings offer a quality connection because there is more time for talk, more questions, and detailed explanations.
• Email readings act more as a personalized keepsake. Written messages are a great way to refer back to the reading.
• In-person readings provide an intimate ‘face to face’ connection with the two of us together.
• Party readings are party entertainment. Party readings are kept light and friendly to fit the party mood. Happy. Happy.
• Astrology Reports Your birth information is interpreted by professional astrological software as a keepsake of potential events.
• As a reader, what do I prefer?  I really love my phone and email readings. They are convenient for both of us, while allowing me to work solely with the vibrations of the energy, along with my ability, and tools. I enjoy deep, intensive reads, where I can be of genuine help to encourage awareness and growth. As a sensitive, my work with the general public isn’t always understood in party situations – so distractions and disturbances will fill the energy with music, tv noises, loud voices, as well as unsettled energy and moods from the guests, and the actual location. At the same time, I do enjoy party reads, because they are a lot fun and get me out of the house. For a more serious reading in a quieter setting, I always leave business cards behind. Party readings will also spook uneducated guests who label my Inner Loving Goddess as a ‘devil worshipper’, ‘satan’s daughter’, ‘evil witch’, or the ‘crazy fortune teller’. ::sigh::

I’m so ashamed to share my embarrassing issues with you. Been there, done that, which means I’m human and have mad my own share of odd choices and mistakes too. I’m here to help, not intimidate or shame. No one’s life is perfect, including those who have been blessed with fame, money, beauty and power. We all have our own journey.

Why aren’t you more expensive? For many years, I was an independent contractor for the largest psychic hotlines. Desperate people paid four to five bucks a minute to talk with me. My goal as an independent service provider is not to rob you blind, but to give you a great reading, with a safe place to unload, but to also return back to.. at a fair affordable rate that works for both of us.

Are you psychic certified? Although I experience my share of psychic energy, unexplained vibrations, paranormal, etc… I have never been ‘certified’. I’m an empath, clairaudient, and clairsentient with special knowledge. I ‘know’ things, because I ‘hear’ , ‘feel’, and ‘experience’ the quiet and unseen.’Psychic energies’ come to me when they want to come, not when I make demands on them. When I am alone and distracted… the energy of the sounds, images, and experiences are easier to connect and interpret. I can not control what I receive at moments notice. It’s just not how it works, which is the purpose of using tools. As a little sample (or proof) of what I ‘psychically’ experience, I log ‘times and dates’ of my intuitive experiences with earthquake predictions as I ‘feel’ them coming through. Behaving as a human ‘tuning fork’, you can check out my earthquake blog Earth Speaks.

What is your specialty? Venus rules my chart as a Libra Ascendant, so general relationships and love, are my specialties. Relations with another, or with yourself. I’ve enjoyed studying others as a people-watcher since I was a little girl, so I have an interest in individual personalities and patterns, as well as behavioral and psychological attributes. From families issues, marriage and dating questions, dealing with adolescents, sibling rivalry, friendships, co-workers, romances, secret affairs, interracial and gay relationships, etc. I also enjoy matters of the heart, self-realization, spiritual growth, personal development, transformation, and going through change.

Can you give me a quick fix? No. You are the only person who can do that. No magical gypsy, celebrity psychic, spiritual hoodoo, friend, or family member has the power to control, or fix your life. I don’t sell magical crystals, special powders, spellbinding candles, etc to help you have control over others. I don’t demand that you return regularly for more costly readings. I will not tell you that I can heal your life and relationships for bundles of cash. I don’t tell you what you want to hear, but what you NEED to hear. Hocus-pocus and woo-woo are a lot of fun and illuminating on a personal level… but when it comes to solving real problems and healing, I work professionally with honesty, not trickery and false hope. In a very ‘down to earth’ style, I can show you how to work with the energy, to harmonize with the universe. I help to guide you to become more in-sync and understanding with your surroundings – so that you don’t need to rely on hundreds of psychic readings, or on me. It’s how I roll.

How often should I get a reading? It varies, depending on voluntary or involuntary shifts, as well as with your individual situation. Readings are generally good up to three, six, or twelve months. I also provide direction through mentoring, to help you find your way. I am not just a reader and talented interpreter, but I also work as a spiritual guide and life advisor. My goal is to help you to get through what you are dealing with, while  teaching you longterm self-maintanence.

How are you with accuracy and timing? I’m really not sure, because I try not to ask. My regular customers are satisfied with what I provide them, so I might guess that it’s about 85%, according to their responses. My goal is not about predicting accuracy. My purpose is to help you at this very crucial moment in your life. I believe that predicting encourages people to sit and wait beside their calendar. I know what it feels like to sit and wait, especially when the timing is off. Instead, I provide you solid confirmation of the accuracy of our connection. I am a believer in free will, karma, and the universal law. My mission is to help guide you in working WITH the flow, rather than against it. I want you to be aware of what is happening all around you. And inside of you. I aim to empower you, so that you will be motivated and in control, without depending on anyone else but yourself and inner source.
