Many people in the world have caused ruin to their lives from incorrect interpretations of divination readings (tarot, astrology, tea leaves, dream interpretation, etc).

The reason why? A lot of people, especially non-SS, who offer these readings are not at a high level of awareness or wisdom. And people get readings from them thinking (or at least hoping) these people have true insight.

Regarding tarot specifically, each card has many meanings – beneficial, malefic, and neutral. It isn’t as straightforward as astrology. A reading might seem fun when you first get it, but then what, if the interpretation turns out to be inaccurate and influenced you to make a mistake in life?

Many times when people are new to tarot (or other forms of divination), they get some accurate answers and think they have the swing of things, then start offering readings to others, not understanding that they can seriously affect someone’s life. It takes years of practice, observation and note-taking, trial and error and fact-finding, to become adept. You also need insight and understanding of life, human nature, spirituality, growth and development.

Giving a disclaimer to the person you offered a reading to, expecting them to use their “inner wisdom” (many people don’t even have this) to make the correct choice, isn’t enough. It doesn’t wash your hands of responsibility. Many people are too trusting, and will make decisions based on stunted or warped interpretations of the reading.

So to those of you who go to others for readings, don’t rely 100% on it. Use it as a guide, not as a rule. And be careful. I went for a reading in-person one time, the tarot reader was an adept psychic vampire. Many professional occultists are psychic vampires, or have a warped sense of spirituality. Many of them don’t actually want to help you, they want you to become dependent on them to keep paying their bills. Always be alert.

And to those who want to offer readings to other SS, my advice is to not do this until you have been advancing yourself enough first. If you’re confused about yourself and/or can’t even properly understand the ToZ, then how can you offer true divination for other members here? A lot of people do not understand the impact a reading can have on someone. This impact can be for positive… or for negative. You need to understand the power and influence you have, or appear to have, because many people are desperate for any sort of guidance or hope. This is not a joke.

On a final note, nobody is permitted to publicly charge for readings here on the ToZ, unless you are verified and approved by Clergy. Even publicly offering free readings is on the boundary, because of the impact an incorrect reading can cause. (If you want to start your own personal online, or in person, business then that is your own business.)

In the (hopefully near) future, the ToZ will have verified experienced tarot readers, astrologers, and more, to help our members
