First of all, be aware that you don't have to pay a huge amount of money for it. There are any number of services out there that have hidden fees, charge outlandish prices like $1.99-$4.99 a MINUTE and some of the less ethical practitioners will try to get you "hooked" so that you come back and spend even more hard earned money. Ethical practitioners are trying to help you stand on your own two feet, not make you dependent on a psychic for figuring out what to do.

Beware any reader who claims 100% accuracy. This is a lie. Always. Every time.

A good reader will not ask a lot of questions, generally--however if you want to offer some background information to help them understand a complicated situation, there is nothing wrong with that. Beware anyone who tells you that you are "cursed" and offers to "break it" for money...that is very often just playing on your fears and taking your money!

Be aware that every reader is different, has different approaches, and uses different tools (and sometimes none at all.) When I am connected very strongly to a client, I may not use my cards at all. When I feel the connection is mild, I might use it for every single question.

Know also that the future is not set in stone, and that even the best of the best readers can only tell you what is likely to happen, not what WILL beyond a shadow of a doubt happen. For example, you could get a good reading that says that you will be happy and healthy and live many years, and then later that evening you could drink 18 beers, get in your car, speed, and wrap yourself around a tree. We all have choices to make. A good reader can help you to make better choices.
