I've been wondering(for a long time now) about what occult related jobs there are. I do know that one can become psychic(and heard there is good money in that), but know nothing about it. Seminars are another, teaching, etc... I'm soon to sign up at a Metaphysical University online(its a good one), and as my minor I'm also taking night school for English/Literature, as I'm a writer/poet myself. Though I(as I'm sure many others 'mongst these forums) would also like to know more about what occult related jobs there are such as a psychic and how they can find these jobs. I don't have many interests besides the Occult and Literature, so I for one would find it very useful to know of the opportunities.

Yeah i thought so. And the businesses who take you under their wing pay no more than $18 an hour, how shitty.

Greetings,

I hate to be the pessimist of this thread but you might want to consider other options. The purpose of work is not to have fun it is to make money. You could get a type job of which there is a much bigger demand and make alot more money than you could doing occult type work. Then you could do your occult type work as a side job. And seriously even if you are making tools and reading cards unless you live in a huge city the amount of work you are going to get is only going to amount to a side job anyways.

I am an excellent Tarot card reader but I do it for free. God gave me that gift and I do not feel it would be right to charge others. I feel that God has given me the power to truly see the future through the Tarot because he wants me to help others.

Besides I have a regular job as an Electrical Contractor. I worked hard to get where I am with a regular job so that I will have plenty of money to finance my occult life.

All of these Tarot card reader that I see in New York make me laugh. I actually really like the Gypsys and these Psychics are the true descendants of the Gypsys. The thing is the way they survive is by ripping people off. I read palms well enough to know when someone is bull$hi#ng me. They will tell you that you have a demon or bad spirit following you or a bad energy and it is going to cost alot of money for them to get rid of it for you. They will tell you whatever it takes to get you to keep coming back.

I recently spent almost $200 dollars in the village on herbs that I could have ordered really cheap online from a Gypsy. The reason I did not mind spending the money was because I liked the lady and I knew that she really knew what the herbs are good for so I was getting an expert opinion for my sick friend. Gypsys rip people off because that is the way they learn to survive in this world. Some can actually help you alot but some that I have met are just terrible con artists.

Be an honest person and get a real job and make as much money as you can. Then you will have the cash to enjoy your occult hobby and you will not have to rip people off to eek out a modest living. You can then be honest in your occult side job and that will bring you good karma.

Just my opinion of course. I just think you should view this from different angles.

Peace

I have to agree with smasher here.

The thing is that when you get involved with a job like that, for one thing you're taking on huge responsibility that even if you may be up to, you are still very accountable for even small mistakes. You have to be flawless to be a responsible psychic.

You also have to contend with your own ego. A lot of psychics out there were really good readers/seers originally, but after a while the money starts coming, and greed takes over, and then the ego gets in the way and while you may think you are reading well, either cards or auras or possibility matrices, you can easily delude yourself into thinking that you're seeing something real when really you are just playing to your own ego.

A competent magician can make a living doing spells for people, but that's just sort of an accident waiting to happen, and again you have to already be completely and totally certain that every single spell will go off without a hitch and deliver the proper results every time.

If you want an occult related job, learn to craft tools, talismans, etc. You can even go to school for various forms of crafting which will probably give your products an edge.

Or maybe look into counseling - if you can bridge your experience between psychology and intuition, you'll probably make an excellent therapist, and that's something people need a lot more than a psychic to tell them their future, or about the tall, dark and handsome man coming into their life soon.

I've gone to a few of the psychics in new york, as a sort of running gag/hobby, and so far i think I've met two who maybe used to have some ability, but clearly lost it when their ego got in the way. Better to avoid that pitfall all together than risk falling into it. If nothing else, you should wait until you are experienced enough to have acquired your personal power and never make a mistake with your intuition. You need to be able to totally remove your ego from the equation no matter what the circumstances are, and that takes a dedicated lifestyle change on your part before you can even get close to that.

Don't underestimate the power of your own ego, it plays a part in every thought you have until you have fully mapped out your own psyche, and identified where it affects you and how.

peace
