Alright...please don't hate me, but: I need a new Tarot reader.
My old reader and I have kind of had a falling out.

Does anyone know what the best way to locate one is? Yellow pages? Online? Word of mouth.

1. Word of mouth.
Or go hunting on your own.

4. Yeah, I'll have to be careful, though.
My old reader was the only one in town I knew of with regular hours--she might actually be the only one in my city. She used to be GREAT, it's just that lately I think she's either decided to stop trying or she's not successfully accessing whatever her talents were OR she just decided she hates/disapproves of me. The last couple of readings have felt like she was basing her assessments on superficial judgments about my appearance and overall demeanor. I just--I wouldn't want to insult her exactly, so I would hate for the word-of-mouth thing to lead to her hearing about me with another reader.

5. I do a lot of work with my own decks, I just think outside perspective
is also valuable.

15. Some value, yes ; however all successful teachers are temporary
Outside perspective always has some value to a limited degree but maximum value comes from your own examined self.

7. This is a serious question; I'm trying to get serious answers.

It's actually quite rude to post something so disrespectful and hurtful in a discussion like this.

9. I didn't mean to offend.

I did laugh out loud when I read bigwillq's post. I have some friends who are very much into the tarot (I'm not as you could probably guess) and I would suspect that word of mouth is probably your best bet for finding a new reader.

I've played around with the tarot a bit. I mainly like the cards for their art, but learning to read yourself is probably a worthwile endeavor if you are serious about it. :thumbsup:

On Edit: Sloppy typing
