A Timely Work,
By
This review is from: Professional Tarot: The Business of Reading, Consulting & Teaching (Paperback)
Christine Jette's book, Professional Tarot was a book I had to get as soon as I learned the release date. It was timely in that I am currently starting a Tarot-based business.Once the book was in my hands, I familiarized myself with the set-up, then dived in. It did not disappoint. I discovered that there is so much personal responsibility involved in reading the Tarot professionally, as it should be, to further the field. This book did not give me cookie-cutter meanings for the cards, thank God, but did give me realistic and inspired ways to go about setting up a business. Christine Jette's writing style is personal, comfortable, and appealing. This is a woman who's been there and has no airs of self-righteousness. I will read her other works, for sure. Without giving it away, do yourself a favor and check this book out. If you are really serious about being the best, most ethical, and prepared reader out there, you have to read this.

One of Llewellyn's better books!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Professional Tarot: The Business of Reading, Consulting & Teaching (Paperback)
This is a great book for anyone thinking of going full-time as a Professional Tarot Consultant. Ethics, business management and promotional ideas, and legal info are all overlooked topics that make this book worth buying! Again, I have to state, this book is for people whom want to make tarot reading their full time career! It is of little to no use to the hobbiest or part-time consultant. Highly recommended.

Professional Tarot - An Honest Review,
By C. Ohls - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Professional Tarot: The Business of Reading, Consulting & Teaching (Paperback)
Greetings! This is an excellent book overall with just a few minor things that keep it from getting 5 stars. If you want to know how to start your own tarot business this is the book for YOU! Lots of great content and information, the author really knows her stuff. It seems like she's been around the block quite a few times! Probably the only major downfall in the writing is just her perspective at some points. She does ramble and complain a bit in the beginning how women are so under paid and that they should stand up for themselves when it comes to business. Im not disagreeing with her, it just seems like this book is not the place to do that and it also makes the men feel uncomfortable. Other than that, her nursing background really comes through in the writing which is OK but I would prefer to see it less and more of her tarot background. But this book is still worth the money all around. Best of luck!
