Code of Ethics
At Rea's Readings and Rituals, our core values guide every aspect of our business practices. We believe in upholding the highest standards of integrity, respect, and transparency to create a safe and supportive community for spiritual growth and enlightenment.
What you can expect from me
Confidentiality
I will never disclose what is revealed by the cards or what a client confides to me during a reading without his/her written approval. I will hold all written and verbal communication with a client in confidence, except in the event of a life-threatening situation.
Your tarot reading will never intentionally be shared with anyone but you for any reason.
Respect
Respect is at the heart of everything I do. My goal is to offer clarify, comfort, and spiritual guidance. I treat all of my clients with equal respect, regardless of their origin, race, religion, gender, age, or sexual identity. I honor the individuality and unique journey of each client, providing a sanctuary for spiritual growth and insight.
Transparency
Honesty
I will always interpret a reading to the best of my ability and will honestly admit when I cannot interpret or answer something. I will always tell the truth, but not impose information on a client that they have clearly indicated that they do not wish to know or explore further in depth.
Responsibility
My goal as a Tarot reader is to allow my clients to take responsibility for their own decisions and actions, which guide their lives, and to act according to their own conscience for the greater good of all concerned.
No Judgement
I will always provide readings with compassion and in a nonjudgmental manner.
Empowerment
I will let my clients know that the future is never etched in stone and thus that they have the power to change their future!
I will strive to help my clients leave a reading feeling empowered to make practical, life-affirming decisions.
Uplifting
I will strive to make each reading a blessing for everyone involved.
I will be encouraging and try to leave my clients with a sense of renewed strength and hope. Thus, I will try to make each reading, no matter how bad it might initially appear, end on a positive, encouraging note.
Expertise
I will not give advice in areas for which I am not qualified. If the client needs a physician, psychologist, lawyer, financial advisor, accountant, or any other professional service for which I am not qualified, I will encourage him or her to seek such service from someone who is qualified in that area. I will make appropriate referrals wherever possible.
Independence
I will not let my clients become overly dependent upon my services, nor pressure them for return visits.
Professional Conduct
I will never scare a client by predicting the inevitability of a physical death.
I will not do a reading to see what someone other than my client is doing or feeling.
I will at all times maintain an ethical and professional relationship with my clients.
I will not abuse a client’s trust and vulnerability for my own personal benefit.
I will endeavor to study those things that will advance my own professional development and aid me in giving better readings.
I will not refer clients to another professional reader in anticipation of acquiring kickbacks or other compensation.
I will not breadcrumb you. What you pay for is what you will receive. I will not cut the video short and hold any advice or insights “hostage” for additional payment.
I May Share 3rd Party Links
At my own discretion, I may occasionally recommend links to external sites for tarot decks, other readers, or counselling websites, as I see fit. I may or may not be affiliated but will notify the querent. I am not responsible for the content or practices of third party sites. Please perform due diligence before buying products or services from anyone.
Cancellations
If cancellations are necessary, due to circumstances beyond your control or mine, and if the reading has yet to be completed, I will happily offer you a credit for a future tarot reading.
I have the right to deny or cancel a reading especially if
-
you are becoming too reliant on my tarot readings for advice and decision making
-
you are asking the same question within a short span of time
-
you are asking me to predict outcomes or asking me to make decisions on your behalf
-
you do not agree to the rewording of a question
-
you ask about winning lottery numbers, investments of finances, diagnosing health, or dark magic / manipulation of energy
-
I am unwell or am unable to answer your question through tarot
-
I cannot meet the delivery deadline of your reading.
What I expect from you..
You are 18 years of age or older
If you do not meet the age requirement, with the consent of a parental figure along with a consent form and with their presence during the reading, I will happily provide my services for you.
You understand readings are for entertainment only
These readings should not be a replacement for medical or legal advice. If you are struggling with mental or physical health issues or deep emotional pain, please seek guidance from a licensed professional.
You are willing to be open and honest with yourself and me
For best results it’s imperative to show up with an open heart and mind with a willingness to share some detail about your situation and context. Without this information, it will be challenging to deliver messages that are specific and clear. Understand that this information will not sway the messages that the cards deliver.
You are taking responsibility for your choices, actions and decisions
Tarot readings are a tool should never be an excuse to vacate your own senses, reason, spiritual process, or decisions but an invitation to engage with them more fully. It is up to you to make choices in your own best interest, based on the circumstances you are dealing with, needs, limitations, and personal beliefs regardless of what your reading states. You are responsible for your actions.
You are focused on self and benevolence
I see tarot as a way to understand yourself better and ultimately, empower you. Please keep your questions self-focused, benevolent, and removed from questions surrounding health, pregnancy, financial investments, or lottery numbers. Questions that do not align with this will be reworded with approval, or cancelled outright. See #3 and #7 of The Reader section, below.
You understand results may vary
Some tarot readings may not resonate at first so take time to digest the information. Additionally, due to the fluid nature of life, your circumstances, and your own free will (and other people’s free will), tarot readings are not necessarily predictive of any future events. Outcomes that may be discussed in your reading(s) are possibilities only. They also may not be 100% accurate. Nothing is.
You are participating legally
If it's illegal to purchase readings, spiritual counselling, or decks in your particular state or country, the responsibility lies on you, and you should make sure that it's legal for you to purchase & participate.
