Practical Magic ETHICS
All information given to me by my clients is kept confidential.
Any advice I give isn’t absolute. Your decisions are 100% yours.
I can’t give medical, legal, or financial advice as I’m not a doctor, lawyer, or professional financial consultant. Tarot readings are in no way a replacement for licensed and professional mental health services.
I reserve the right to refuse service for any reason.
I believe that tarot readings provide comfort, hold space for self-exploration, and are a way to create strategies to serve your best and highest good.
FAQs
ON HOW READINGS WORK
Q. ARE YOU PSYCHIC?
A. No. While I put a lot of stock in intuition (mine and yours), I don’t identify as a psychic, witch, or fortune teller. I don’t dabble in the esoteric the way mystics do. PRACTICAL plays a big part in how I perceive magic.
Q. CAN YOU PREDICT MY FUTURE?
A. No. I use the tarot to help you understand what’s going on (present tense). I don’t believe the future is set in stone. Practical Magic tarot is supposed to help you discover your agency so you can empower yourself. If you’re going to ask the cards if someone’s your soul mate, if you’re going to get a job, if I can see which country you will be moving to, or if your immigration papers will be approved, please look for another reader.
Q. CAN I ASK YES OR NO QUESTIONS?
A. I highly discourage it. I avoid YES or NO questions because I feel they are limiting. I can help you reframe your inquiries so that we get a broad scope of possibilities so you don’t just get a hard yes or no.
Q. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT SOMEONE’S THINKING OR FEELING?
A. I’m not a mind reader so, no. What I can do is talk about a person in relation to you. Tarot readings only reflect back what’s going on in your subconscious (and your subconscious alone). Even if I could hack into someone’s psyche, I think that would be a pretty sh*tty thing to do.
ON READING LOGISTICS
Q. DO YOU DO SKYPE, FACETIME, OR VOICE CALL READINGS?
A. No. All readings are done via email and are sent as PDFs. I am a writer by trade and this is the medium I am most comfortable with. I’m also a huge introvert and feel very zapped when interfacing with strangers :)
Q. CAN I POST PHOTOS OF MY READING?
A. Yes! It would be great if you could tag me on Instagram at @practical_magical.
Q. HOW OFTEN CAN I GET READINGS?
A. I recommend spacing out readings by at least a month. As much as I love reading for you, I’d like to make sure you don’t end up using your tarot readings as an emotional crutch. Readings are meant to boost and bolster you so you can stand on your own feet and make decisions without having to rely on the cards 24/7.
Q. DO YOU DO REFUNDS OR ACCEPT PARTIAL PAYMENTS?
A. No. If you’re not happy with your online reading, I do not do refunds. Showing up and pulling cards online takes up energy and this serves as protection for me.
