Tarot Reading

March 2006

I'm interested in getting a tarot reading done, but have never done this before. Any suggestions for a good person to go to? What should I expect, and how much should I expect to pay? Thanks.

I have only been to one person for this whole arena is new to me, but she is so kind, honest and right on, I cannot imagine anyone better or more helpful. She charges $80 per hour but will do segments of an hour, I think, so ask for what you want. Isabelle Choiniere 510-532-8806 or email her at zabnature[AT]yahoo.com Please mention my name. I want her to know how much I appreciate her talents, and service. Louise

Contact Isabelle Choiniere for Tarot readings. I only had a short (10 minute) reading at an event, but I thought she was very good. Contact her at: zabnature[AT]yahoo.com Melanie

Isabelle Choiniere is the best around and very accurate. She has a wonderful energy is very grounded and not airy-fairy. Her business name is Insights and Foresights - 532-8806. Maureen

Palm reader for a party

June 2004

Do you know of a good palm reader for an adult party? I actually need someone for a work event in Alameda. Would love to use a referral rather than someone random from the phone book. Much thanks! Nancy

I suggest Janet Savage of Hand Tales. She is a very warm and intuitive woman. She has a professional image. Rebecca

I can highly recommend Sally Faubion, even though she is not a card reader. Sally is a fabulous numerologist whom I met at our company Christmas party a couple of years ago. I had another reading a couple of months ago and all I can say is that I have been blown away. I have recommended many of my friends who have all had the same experience. Sally does private parties as well, see her website below. http://www.sfnumber.com/ J.E.

Looking for a medium

June 2004

I'm embarassed to ask this but have no where else to do so. I'm hoping that someone out there might not laugh and might have a recommendation for a medium--yes, I mean the kind that contact dead people. I really would like to find someone who is recommended. I've been to the Berkeley Psychic Institute and didn't have a good experience there... anyone else tried contacting a dead person?
Desperately trying to contact my mother

I don't have a suggestion for a medium but I have a thought. Following my grandmother's death I had a lot of amazing dreams. It felt to me that she was communicating with me thru my dreams. There was no experience from our life together that would have created the conversations we had in my dreams. I found out years later that both my sister and mother had dreams about her during that same period. Maybe you can try therapy that helps you access your dreams. Just a thought. wishing you well

Looking for a palm reader

July 2003

Does anyone know a really good palm reader? Not a hocus-pocus-well-read one. Someone really good with a proven track record.

Hi, I'm a palmistry reader myself. I also have an MBA, so palmistry isn't a business for me. A proper reading should be about your personality, capabilities, areas of conflict and if the reader is well trained health too. No future telling! It should be based on both old Hindu and Chinese diagnosis and modern research (psychological aspects that are linked to the shape of the palm and the fingers, and medical aspects that look into the "dermatogliphs" - the prints of the hand). The reader you choose should be able to tell you everything without you saying a word until they're done. Since I still don't consider my level excellent enough to read a palm on the spot, I prepare in advance and everything is written before I even interact with the person! So you should be sure a good reader can know all they want to say to you without having your reactions influence what they say.

When I came to Berkeley, after a year long study in this field and a year of practice (though I was an Organizational Consultant at the same time, so I only read about a hundred palms that year) I thought it would be great to continue practicing it here. I mean what better place

Unfortunately I was disappointed to find that palmistry is associated with psychic abilities, future telling and such. As someone who has studied it and practices it, I can tell you there is nothing hocus-pocus about it.

Good luck with finding what you look for and with making good use of what you like about what they tell you. Reut.

I am not sure what your purpose is in finding a good palm reader but I know a very good and well known astrologer. His name is Walden Welch and his web site is www.wwastrologer.com and phone number is 707-996-8226. He is in Sonoma about a 45 minute drive. Mary

Looking for a psychic

January 2002

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good psychic who is either local or who works by phone? Please chime in, too, if you have had an unsatisfying experience with a particular psychic. Thank you.

I like Barbara Huning. She's based in North Carolina and gives "Higher Self" readings over the phone, sending you the taped reading later. I find her helpful and constructively positive. She has a brochure available. Her email address is: higherselfconnection at hotmail.com. Or you can call her at (828) 683-4067. Margaret

I have a spritual healer that is wondefrul. Her name is Norine Smith and she is located in Berkeley off university ave by the taco bell. She is excellent and right on the money! Her phone number is 510-540-5616 Tell her Gail sent you. Gail

Psychics I've been receiving readings for years from an excellent psychic named Victoria Dadam. She's accurate, moderately priced, and a lovely person. Victoria used to live in Alameda and I saw her in person. Since she moved to Reno I've received readings from her by telephone. Many of my friends and relations also go to Victoria with questions and are quite satisfied with her readings. Her phone number in Reno is 775-787-1854. Carolyn

I JUST saw your request about psychics. Since I am a trained intuitive, and have been offering professional readings for over 12 years in Berkeley, I thought I would respond to your request. For me, a good pyschic reading offers information in a neutral and compassionate way that supports indivdual growth and awareness. In my own experience, both personally and professionally, I find that readings can bring clarity and/or healing to a variety of situations. I also believe that psychic information has to be connected to the body in order to be useful and transformative. I would be happy to talk with you about my own work or provide a trustworthy referral. Please feel free to call me at 510.525.0679. My name is Miriam Moussaioff. (I also teach workshops on intuition and am a Certified Rosen Bodywork Practitioner.) My email is miriamlm AT earthlink DOT net.

March 2003

I'm looking for an astrologer to create and interpret (in depth) a natal chart for my one year old. My mother had one done for me shortly after my birth and I've kept it my whole life and have found it interesting and often insightful to read. I figure even if my son is never really interested in it when he's older, at least I'll have it for him and in the meantime it will be fun for me! Ideally, I'd like someone in the bay area whom I can meet in person and get a feeling for instead of an online service, although I welcome any/all recommended sources. Thank you! poppy

When I was trained as an astrologer (20 years ago), the focus of my training was on character--getting insight into people's strengths and barriers--not ''fortune telling.'' I was discouraged by the many professional astrologers with whom I trained from reading babies and children. They thought the possibility of self-fulfilling ''prophecy'' was stronger for a child. In other words, an adult generally has some sense of who she/he is and can agree or disagree with the reading, while a child (or the parent of a child) can more easily be influenced. With that in mind, I made a general rule in my practice as an astrologer that I would not read children. (I also did not do predictions for anyone of any age.)

That said, when my own child was born I ordered a natal chart with interpretation by Liz Greene, a PhD in psychology and one of the most respected astrologers in the world. I rarely look at it, but occasionally when I am stumped by some quirk in my child's character I pull it out in the hope of insight.

Liz Greene's interpretations are extraordinarily on the mark. You can find out more about her services and her books at http://www.astro.com/. An Astrologer Mom

I highly recommend Andrea Mallis, who has been studying astrology for over 15 years. Her business is called Virgo in Service. She has a great website, www.virgoinservice.com, and is the team astrologer for the Oakland A's! She's very meticulous person and detail-oriented. (She is, after all, a Virgo!) She offers a variety of services, from basic natal charts, to more in-depth information. Call her at 874-4911. Good luck! fellow earth traveller
