Card Reading - Basic FAQs

By EelKat Wendy C Allen

What kinds of readings do you perform?

Card Readings. 

Crystal Scrying.

Shell Divination.

Spirit Boards (Ouija).

Pendulum Readings.

I do others, including automatic writing, seances, and vision questing, but not as often.

NOTE: I do NOT read Tarot cards. I have never had lessons in Tarot reading and don't know how to perform Tarot deck readings, sorry. It's the single most frequently asked question I get from people. I use oracle cards. While I have dozens of card decks, I specifically do nearly ALL of my readings with one of the following six decks:

The Faerie Deck

The Mermaid Deck

The Unicorn Deck

The Angel Guidance Deck

The Angel Messages Deck

The ArchAngel Deck

What types of readings do you not do?

There is a lot of Hoodoo work I don't do for one reason or another, usually because I'm not trained in that discipline.

I know this may be hard for you to understand, but there's no way around it: if I am not trained to do a thing, I simply can not do it.

Sorry, but just because I know how to read Angel Cards doesn't mean I know how to read Tarot cards. Please don't order an Angel Card Reading from me and add a message asking: "I know this listing is for Angel Cards, but could you give me a Tarot reading instead?" (yes, people do do this.) No, no, i can not give you a tarot reading. Why? well, for one thing I do not own a single Tarot deck. For another thing it takes years to learn to read Tarot cards and I've never even seen a Tarot card and don't know the first thing about them. Maybe someday I'll take lessons, but until that day, I'm sorry, I simply do not know how to read Tarot cards and can not offer a service for something I don't know how to do.

There are thousands of methods of divination out there and just because a person is trained in one method, does not mean they are trained in any other method. 

Yes, I have studied a wide variety of divination methods and offer services in those areas. 

No, I am not a jack-of-all trades trained in every area of divination and spell work. There are a lot of disciplines I have no training in and simply can not offer services for.

Those things include the following:

Are there any areas (love, money, gambling, success, etc) in which you will not work?

Yes. Several.

I do not consider ANY work which involves breaking up a couple (married or not married).

I do not do any work to bring about divorce.

I do not do any work involving gambling or lotteries, unless it is to help stop a gambling or lottery addiction.

I do not do psychic work (predicting future events.)

I do not do death spells or harmful work (except on very rare occasions for victims of extreme violance, such as in the case of murder, attempted murder, stalking, kidnapping, rape, or violent hate crimes.)

Which of the reading styles you use are most popular with your clients?

Card Readings are by far the most popular/most requested type of reading. 

The ArchAngel Deck is the most requested deck.

The most popular spreads are the 3, 5, and 7 card spreads involving love, relationships, life purpose, and luck.

Spirit Board (OuiJa) Readings done with a combination of crystal scrying are the second most popular/most requested type of readings.

Oddly, I keep getting requests for things I don't do as well. The two most common requests for things I don't do are Tarot Readings and "Tell Me What you See" 

It doesn't matter how many times I say in my listings or on my site or elsewhere, that I do not read Tarot cards, it still does stop people from sending me messages saying: "I saw you had a listing for Angel Card readings and wondered if you could give me a reading with Tarot Cards instead?" Nope. No. I can not. I do not own a Tarot deck. I've never even seen a Tarot card. I don't know what they look like, I'm not sure I'd know one if I saw one.

And because of my race (I am a Gypsy) I'm daily bombarded (every single day - no less then 3 encounters a day) with locals rushing up to me and blurting out: "I heard you were a Gypsy? are you a good Gypsy or a bad Gypsy?"

ME: Good Gypsy or bad Gypsy? What? What are you talking about?

"I need you to look into my head and tell me what you see...." followed by long life history sob story of boo-hoo and woe is me, ending an hour later with: "so are you a good Gypsy or a bad Gypsy? What should I do about this. Tell me what you see."

ME: Gypsy is a race, like French or Chinese or African American. A Gypsy can be good or bad just like any other person of any other race. 

"No. No, Gypsies aren't a race..."

ME: I'm a Gypsy, I ought to know.

"No, Gypsies are a type of witch, like Wiccans and warlocks and..."

ME: Honey, you been watching too many fru-fru movies. Gypsy is a race and has NOTHING to do with career, lifestyle, mode of travel or anything else. Being a Gypsy is determined by your DNA, not what you do.
