I shall now reveal my deep dark secret... I AM PSYCHIC... well no, not quite. But I have been studying and using tarot cards for some time both as something to find guidance from in tricky situations and as a meditative tool. It occurred to me that there could be some interest in having readings done here on gaiaonline, whether it be for some guidance or just for fun. If this is something you are interested in please read on.
A short intro to my tarot readings...
Tarot cards, as you may know, are the "fortune telling cards" often portrayed in media and stories. Some old wrinkled woman in a back alley draws the cards for the protagonist... she draws the death card and DRAMA ENSUES! Of course like anything else in hollywood, this is a great exaggeration. Tarot cards don't exist to tell you exact events, and it would be more accurate to refer to them a tool for introspection... the messages on the cards can help bring new insight into a situation you may not have been sure about before. I can say from personal experience they've helped bring me new information about important decisions or events in my life.
So if you are expecting or wanting some sort of haunting message of exactly what is going to happen to you in the future... I'm afraid that isn't what I can offer you.
If you are looking for some guidance and introspect into your life or just some food for thought then you are in the right place. 3nodding
"Will you do a reading for me?"
Yes, I'd be happy to. However in return I'm asking for some gold as payment for my time, just like any other user-run service on gaia. I'm not asking for a fortune, don't worry (the prices are right below this section.) If I offered them for free people who weren't serious about them would spam me with readings and as a college student I don't really have the time to commit to so much without something gained XD
All you have to do to get a reading is to look through the different layouts I offer, once you've chosen send me a private message with your choice and a trade with the gold. After receiving the gold I will immediately perform a reading and return the results to you (so in simple terms, I won't finish the trade until I have the time to do the reading for you right then... so no worries about having to wait around for me after paying)
SO!
Here are the card spreads I offer:
Celtic Cross (10 cards) This is the standby card reading done by just about every tarot card user, I recommend it for first time/general readings. It is best used when you have a specific question or concern in mind. It will reveal facts about the present past and future, and factors influences on it. Then it will reveal a final outcome and possible outcome. Cost: 10k
Past, Present, Future (3 cards) A very basic spread, consisting of 3 cards that indicate present situations, what lead up to them and where things may be headed. Cost: 3k
The Mirror Spread (8 cards) This is a spread best used for pre-existing relationships. Not only does this provide insight into romantic relationships, but it can also be used for friendships, family members and pretty much your "relationship" with any person whether romantic or not. It reveals insight into how you see each other, obstacles, strengths and the probably result. cost: 8k
The Ellipse Spread (7 cards) This spread is one that is capable of answering direct questions well. It is one of the few spreads that has a specific "what to do" card position. It also offers some insight into the past, present and future and the outcome. cost: 7k
I may add a few other spreads in the future, but for me these spreads tend to be the most versatile and useful.
What you will receive
Before I do the reading I will probably ask you for a little bit of insight into what is going on in your life. It is up to you whether you want to answer or not (or how vague/detailed you want to be about it) this isn't to "cheat" but rather it may help me make more comprehensive connections between the cards and what they relate to in your life. If you don't want to reveal anything or don't really have anything to say that is fine, I'll just give you the general overview of the reading and I'm sure you can find your own meanings and connections.
Now that being said, once I do the reading I will send you a photo of the spread, such as this example of a celtic cross spread:
(apologies for the image quality, I don't have a camera so I literally had to hold my laptop up to take this XD) I use the popular rider waite deck whose imagery may hold meaning to you beyond the card's description.
I will then go over each position and what the card in that position means. Don't worry, I will not be giving you some copy+paste definition for the card from any website (though you may be interested in researching them further on your own) but the overall definitions of the cards and my own interpretations of these meanings. I may point out some of my own connections between cards and what they may mean. I will give you a good amount of information, not just a sentence or two so don't be afraid of being "ripped off."

So if you are interested or have any other questions regarding this please feel free to pm me, I can respond to any questions you have about it and I look forward to doing any readings for you.
