Your Role as a Reader

When you sit down to read someone else's palms, their future is literally in your hands. In less than one hour, you will play many roles in this person's life — from counselor and spiritual advisor to mentor and coach. You will identify many unique qualities, challenges, and opportunities, but you may also help to clarify a person's sacred path in life.

As a counselor and spiritual advisor, you will take a close look at the lines on people's hands to determine how they've handled the joys, trials, and tribulations of life — and their tendencies for handling them in the future. You'll get an up-close-and-personal look at their inner selves; you'll be their trusted friend and confidant. You'll hear about the challenges they faced when young, and what their main concerns are at this point in their lives.

The information you learn during a palm reading should be kept strictly confidential! Confidentiality between reader and client is of the utmost importance and a tremendous responsibility — one that you must take very seriously if you want to be a professional palm reader.

Answers to Life's Bigger Questions

When clients consult you for a palm reading, they most likely want to know the answers to life's bigger questions, such as “Why am I here — what is my purpose?” and “When will I find my life partner?” But your role may well extend beyond mere answers to the perennial questions of life. You may also find yourself encouraging them to overcome their hindering tendencies and challenges as presented in the lines on their hands. In this sense, you will be more of a coach or mentor, instilling in them the concept that they indeed are masters of their own fate and have a choice in their behaviors or circumstances. You can be an inspiring voice — encouraging them to succeed in life!

How much should I charge?

Professional palm readers typically charge anywhere from $15 for a fifteen-minute reading to $100 for an hour-long reading. Try doing your first few readings for free in order to start building a clientele.
