Psychic Scamming Continues in Jacksonville, Florida.

As a professional clairvoyant consultant here in Jacksonville, Florida, I am very sad to report that I have had one call and one e-mail in the past week that I find very discouraging, but not surprising, and not unusual. Please note that I am Ann George, I always use both names professionally, and have been in service to the public since 1996. I have published extensively on my website , blogs, and have podcasts available at no charge to help people have a better understanding of the mystic and metaphysical importances and benefits of consulting a "seer" as we were once called. I do not endorse any abusive practices, I do not charge for anything more that the time you spend with me, and have really tried to encourage people to understand that a good reading is a co-created experience. Both the seeker and the reader need to work together to find the answers to questions. Here is an excerpt from the e-mail, which I have modified to for the privacy of the sender: "...

How Often Should I Have a Reading?

Image
This is an excellent question, one that I am asked time and again.. and if you will indulged me, I will post an answer that hopefully addresses all aspects of when to have a reading. In general, it is best to have a reading either every three months or every six months. Why? The future is always unfolding, and each action we take generates a consequence. Each consequence impacts our future, and to have a reading that provides a glimpse of the future you are co-creating is always wise. If you are well-placed in life, comfortable with the world you have created, and your life seems orderly, then a reading every six months is probably best. You might order the 15 minute reading and ask to see the outcome of continuing your present spiritual or professional path. If the outcome revealed is to your liking... then you are on course. If you are at a place in time where you are beginning to create or recreate a future, and there are many choices, many decisions, many suitors, then you ...

Notes from the January Tarot Class

Image
The Tarot Salon/Workshop met as we always do, the second Sunday of the month in the lovely studio in the back of the Midnight Sun. This month students were able to ask many questions about the ethic of reading, how best to read, how to direct seekers to ask useful questions, the purpose & power of question driven readings as well as other topics that were of particular interest to those attending. One of the most interesting discussion was about revealing the full, truthful answer in a reading. One reader present was very interested in when & how to reveal what might be disturbing or unfortunate news. A lively discussion ensued, and the consensus was that a Tarot reader must share all that is revealed in the reading. Editing information to protect the seeker would be an intrusion of the ego of the reader, and therefore, an interruption of the pure flow of wisdom that occurs in the process. This conversation moved again to the topic of asking useful questions. It was decide...

Tarot Consultations Only - Ethics of a Professional Reader

Image
I have received several emails lately from new visitors to my website asking if I will perform rituals for them. In particular, I have been asked to do rituals for success, to reunite lost loves, to bring money, and to break up relationships. I do not now, nor have I ever offered services of this kind. I do not do "work" and have published many articles written to help new clients better understand the the power to change our lives rests with in each of us. We are the magic, we create the future, we can change so much about our lives when we have some clarity, insight and direction. An ethical Tarot consultation can indeed offer that clarity and an out picturing of the future outcome of our actions. I provide Clairvoyant Tarot readings by appointment. The fees for my services are clearly stated, and don't change. You receive the reading you pay for, one which offers many benefits . I have written many articles, some in this blog, others on my site, that address the natu...

The Sacred Trust - Ethics of a Professional Tarot Consultant

Image
Recently, I had a curious friend ask me a question about a my reading process, and in particular about the kinds of things that occur in a reading. I realized that it may be time again to post more information about my values as a reader so that others can know my thoughts on the Sacred Trust. Those words may sound dramatic, or self important, which is not at all my intention. Rather, the words "Sacred Trust" reflect my deep sense of gratitude to the oracle of Tarot, my respect for the seekers, and an abiding commitment to keep the confidences entrusted to me by my clients. I mention my gratitude to Tarot as it is this mystic device, this ancient book of mirrors that made it possible for me to gain mastery over my clairvoyant "gift", which I assure you, when running wild is no gift at all. Unbridled clairvoyance in my experience was a kaleidoscope of information that served no one. It is the Tarot that made it possible to serve the public. For me, the Tarot is the p...
