“How Much Does It Cost?”

I received a telephone call the other day from a female who was given my
number by a respected candle shop owner in the area and one of the first
concerns that she voiced was cost. Understanding that monetary concerns
were probably a daily issue, I first asked her if she had access to the Internet
so that she could read more about me. Alas, she did not. I frequently refer
callers to my website to read about who I am and what I do. Many times the
written word is retained better than the spoken word and is one reason that
when I do a telephone consultation, I send a written report of the reading for
the caller to re-read at their leisure.

Last week, I turned on the television to listen to while doing some daily chores
and tuned into the “Armstrong & Getty” Radio Show that was being simulcast
on a local television station. The topic at the moment was a well-known psychic
who is on a syndicated talk show every Wednesday and has written numerous
books. She apparently had been in contact with the parents of a missing child,
who recently was found. The fallout of her meeting with the parents and the
ensuing turn of events did not set her in a positive light with Armstrong &
Getty. I had to call in and give my yeas and nays about the topic.

I first voiced my opinion about the rising cost of an appointment with this
psychic to the stars, since I have been a fan of her since 1991, when I first saw
her on television. I questioned the validity of a good reading becoming better
with increased costs to the client. I told the radio guys that cost was something
I “futzed” (worried about) with all the time. In my teachings I have been told
that if I were to seek to gain financially from Tarot, the gift will go away and I
have sincerely prayed that this be true. However, to counter that, I have been
blessed with a fulfilling career and that remains the source of my sustenance.

I then told the radio personalities that there are those of us who do have a gift,
and that good readers do not have to be so expensive. I related a story of a
client who had previously visited a local shop that offered a reading for $10.00
and she had walked out $100.00 poorer. These type of people prey on the
emotionally or financially disadvantaged who are seeking answers or solace.
We briefly talked about signs to look for when a client might need medical or
professional help and my sincerity must have come through because one of
the radio guys said that he liked me since I truly believed I had a gift and I had
ethics. What an affirmation to get!

I always ask the client to take time and consider a reading from any reader and
I have actually referred a few to others when I truly cannot help them, as in
the case of one young lady who asked if I can channel the departed. If I were
unscrupulous, I would take her money and pry a name out of her and a few
facts and concoct a tale for her. As I previously mentioned in the beginning of
this post, I explained what I do, what I charge and to take time to read about
me and other readers before sitting down for a consultation. Caveat Emptor.
