I'm energetically and intuitively ready, but am concentrating on my tarot education right now so that I can start from a strong, balanced, grounded place.
I'm excited for this series! I'm using this year to really solidify my knowledge of the cards (so that I don't have to reference the book) and then later this year or next year I will be launching my business.
+Merwenna This is what my main goal for this year is too! To be able to do readings without needing to reference the books anymore. :) Good luck on your journey! 2016 is going to be a great year I feel.
Love this! Giving myself permission TODAY!!!! It's been brewing for 3 or 4 months now, but now i feel empowered to take action on it, do my research & make it happen! Thank you for the insight!! :)
Love this video and I'm excited for this series! I asked the cards if I was meant to have a tarot business: the empress, the knight of pentacles, the six of swords reversed - this is a great idea (empress) that will bring in money (knight of pentacles) but it is not the time for the journey yet, there is some block or hindrance (six of swords rx).
I knew I was ready on October 1, when I was set out to do a reading on my YT Channel, and I didn’t have my Guidebook, I felt so free and confident. So, everything is going so fast since I started doing the readings last month, my friend set me up a Zoom website with my prices and I’m scheduled to do readings via Zoom three times a week, I’m nervous and excited because the wonderful thing about this is I already had an internet headset I had years before when I did customer service over the phone. I read Intuitively. Thank you for having this series, Love Sekhmet Sapphyre-Sun💓😻🙏🏾
I am giving myself permission today. I have been reading for friends and family without charging them for over 5 years. I have always been drawn to Tarot but was told by my mom that it was bad (due to my religion -- Catholic but not a practicing baby witch). So I have been working on my spiritual awakening for some time. I didn't know the laws of starting a Tarot business and I have favored your site and links for additional support. I am looking into courses for certified Tarot readers but woth covid I've been struggling with/without a job. So as soon as I can get on my feet I will be working on hopefully your courses. I have just started adding Tarot readings to my Etsy page as well. And I am working on figuring out how to use UA-cam to read Tarot. (technology and all -- still working out the kinks). Thank you so much for this video I am going to watch more of them. 🧹 ✨🍃🌀 Blessed be and Well met.
Hi, thanks for sharing your thoughts on the subject. I'm willing to start my business next year so this was helpful. I have never experienced feeling nervous or unprepared when reading for others, quite the opposite, I was very excited to have the chance. In fact I even got paid some thirty bucks or so unexpectedly, I was just reading to have that experience and hopefully help those people without asking anything in return, and they willingly payed me for it regardless, so that was very nice to feel appreciated, and a great confidence boost!
Its so amazing how we all start, I was one of the read to friends and then it started that the friends told their friends and they started to offer money or gifts and I was like wow , I love doing this and I can make a career out of my purpose. Im all in.... Thanks for your story Lucas and GREAT video Ethony. Its so much fun being able to share our work with so many others. PINNING ur work now
I have no one in my area to do practice readings with. Everyone around me does not even know that I do this. If they did, they would freak out! So, I am posting instagram readings confidentially, but not charging anyone anything or doing personals. Hoping this will help build my skills to actually start my business someday.
I knew I was ready before I even picked up the cards. I know that sounds weird but it's true. I would love it if you did a video on how to promote you're online tarot business.
ethony...you may have just set me up on a different path...the universe is speaking... i have read for the last few years and already have a gajillion decks...im gonna do it
My grandmother and other woman including myself have always seemed to be able to predict things out of the ordinary. Lately I got into this twinflame crap and yes I mean crap cuz it's been going on for 3 years I finally walked away. I am thankful for the things that I did learn for myself but the other part as I said crap. Anyway in the midst of it all something's been urging me to do tarot readings on line. I've already been practicing with friends and relatives. The friends said I was scary and they didn't want anymore readings relatives said they dont really believe in that and the ones that I did do said I was on point but didnt want anymore readings either.they seem to think its black magic and I can put curses on them and I'm working with the devil.too bad they feel that way. I dont.so how do I set it up? I need a PayPal account I guess and do I need special mic and or something better than my phone to do utube readings? Then what after that? I need to know about how to set up the foundation of it.and aren't the readings free? Unless u do personal readings or people donate to channel right? So im gonna do a trial run tomorrow im not gonna post it but work on presentation this weekend.give me as many tips as possible I need every bit im really scared but being pushed emotionally to do this.
All of my videos for starting your tarot business will guide you exactly how to do that, answering all of your questions :) You can always check out my website for more help too!
Hi Ethony. Thanks for doing this series. I have been reading in person for over 30 years. I want to start reading online. Not sure how to get started and that's what's been holding me back. Do I start with a website? Do I open a shop in Etsy or Storeenvy or some other site online? Once I am open for online business, how do I get my clients? I am sure these are the typical questions one would ask when offering readings online. :)
+elle jacobs this is so exciting because that is the topic of my second video!!!!! I wanted to do them weekly so you will have a bit of a wait though. I hope that is okay :)
Great! Looking forward to this series...Have to make a correction in my original post. I have been reading over 20 years...Just call me the Typo Queen LOL xx
Hey there! I am a Canadian reader as well, and have been reading for others for about 4 years. From what I have seen for Canada it hasn't been to bad for doing this practice. Is there anything off hand that you know about that I may watch out for - disclaimer wise or anything else? I have the book you referred to, but she talks more about the US. Thanks so much. I love your video's! You have such a great energy about you. Cheers!
I know this video is from 2 years ago, but I do have a question...what does "going professional" mean exactly? Would you say its charging above a certain amount of money, or is it charging anything at all even as little as $5? I was hoping to do a festival of some sort just to get my feet wet, but only charging like $5 for a 3 card reading, in 10 minutes.. I don't know if I feel like I'm ready to "go professional" and thats why I want to see what I can do...is that wrong? You mention feeling like you know you're ready, but I don't think I can really know until I put myself to the test...lol...but if doing a festival is considered professional than I'm thinking I shouldn't do it because it almost seems wrong then like I'm passing myself off as something I don't even know if I am....HELP ETHONY...lol...I value your opinion very much!!
I think going to an event and charging $5 (or what ever you are comfortable with) and testing the waters is perfect. You have to start somewhere and it is a great chance some experience. It can also help your confidence. I hope this helps.
Hi Ruby, you can find the information about the course here - tarotreadersacademy.com/p/tarotcertification there are payment plans available for both options. I hope this helps.
It is illegal in many counties in North Carolina...North Carolina Criminal Code G.S. 14-401.5 "It shall be unlawful for any person to practice the arts of phrenology, palmistry, clairvoyance, fortune-telling and other crafts of a similar kind in the counties named herein.

I’m so looking forward to starting my tarot business. Thank you for your inspiration. I gave myself permission today.

Benebell Wen - lots of posts about “tarot business” on her blog
Hi Ethony! Is it ok for a male to start a tarot business xxx 💙?
+paul rawes Of course you can. There are many wonderful men who have Spiritual and Tarot businesses.
It would be really amazing to see more male readers in the tarotsphere!
Devina's Tarot I agree more male tarot readers would be a beautiful thing
There are a lot of really good male tarot readers on youtube
I’m still working on it but I’m starting my IG this week. 💜💜💜
Yass!! Way to go Kirsten
i really wanted you to say " I KNOW MY SHIT"
Thank you E!
Hugs & Sunshine N🎆
I recently gave myself permission 😊😊

Hi Ethony! How do we go about finding a mentor to guide us in our path to becoming a professional "Tarot Goddess"?

+Megan Kohtz I thought that law was overturned???
Hopefully, b/c it seems a very antiquated law.
I agree. I am in the Charlotte/Lake Norman area. A few people are offering readings and I do see some advertising as well.
@Prudence Gigs Cards are considered fortune telling
@Prudence Gigs Sounds like it is illegal unless your an amateur and are doing it at a school or church social/fundraiser to me
