Astrology Do S And Don Ts
Astrology - Do's And Don'ts
As with anything, there are ethical considerations when doing astrological readings. There are certain things that you should always do and then there are certain things that you should never do under any circumstance. We'll cover the most important of these do's and don'ts in this article.
One of the things you should always do when doing an astrological reading for someone is make them feel comfortable. Wherever your setting, make it as homey as possible. You don't want to dress it up with fancy occult items. Don't wear a turban or anything that makes you look like a psychic. Those are the things that give astrologers a bad name. You want to wear regular clothes and look like a regular person. This will give you a lot more credibility.
When doing a reading, be sociable, but remember that the reason the person is there is for a reading and not for a coffee klatch. Most likely they are paying by the hour so you want to get right to business after you greet your customer.
While doing a reading, there are going to be a number of terms and things that the person you are reading for may not understand and they may have quite a few questions. Even if these questions seem silly or common sense, answer them as best as you can and always with a smile on your face. Remember, they are paying you for your services and as with any other service related industry, you want to be courteous.
When telling a person something about their future, explain to them where this information is coming from. For example, if you tell somebody that they are about to have challenges at their job or in their career path and this is because of 2 planets that are square to each other, then tell them this. Take the time to explain why you have come up with what you have. This will give your reading more credibility.
On the other hand, you don't want to bog the person down with every little detail of how you arrived at each little thing. There are a number of small details for every astrological reading. To dwell on minutiae would turn a two hour reading into four hours. Only point out the parts that are very important and explain those in detail so the person understands not only what is going on, but what to watch out for, such as two planets coming into trine with each other, so they will know when tensions will begin to ease.
The one thing you should never do when performing an astrological reading is predict death. Even though you may be sure you see death coming, this is one thing you just don't do. It is okay to warn somebody that you see a dangerous situation ahead and warn them that they should be careful, say, when traveling. But never tell them you see them getting killed in a plane crash. This is one of the biggest don'ts, not only in astrology, but for all of the mystical sciences.
By following the above guidelines, your readings should all go very well.
