Frequently Asked Questions
1. How can I benefit
from getting a reading?
Most often, when we are in a difficult situation our emotions
override the logic and the practical approach to resolving the problem.
A reading from someone who’s neutral to your situation can give you an
insight that you can use to base your own decisions on, from a
non-emotional prospective.
2. What methods do you
use for reading?
I like to combine using Astrology and Tarot with Clairvoyance in my
readings. Sometimes when the correct time is unobtainable for Astrology
charts, I use Cardology, a method using regular playing cards. Once in
awhile, dream interpretation is also incorporated, if the client
requests me to do so.
3. Why do I need an
accurate birth time, date and place for an Astrology reading?
Without an accurate birth time, the placements of the planetary
symbols on the chart will not be justified and the reader cannot
interpret the chart as accurately as when you have the correct time. A
good Astrologer utilizes Clairvoyance along with the logic or science of
Astrology when such a need arises.
4. How long have you
been involved in this kind of work?
I have been involved in Metaphysics since the time my husband and I
started formally studying Metaphysics and Theosophy in 1978. My studies
in Astrology, Tarot, Magic and Mysticism began immediately and continue
to this day. In 1986 we opened a Metaphysical Bookstore, which we
operated for eighteen years. I have been holding classes, workshops and
group events on these subjects since 1992.
5. Is reading by phone
as accurate as one done in person?
Yes. Our spiritual and vibrational connection is always available to
access, wherever we are. For those who are a bit skeptical about doing
it by phone, I suggest they have a reading using Astrology. The location
of planets found on your birth chart would not move but their
progression would be calculated to where you are currently residing
6. Do you believe in
past lives? Can you see it in the reading?
Yes, I do. I have a couple personal experiences that made me a
believer in it. In my readings, I utilize the Moon Nodes, a significant
astrology symbol, to tap into past life experiences that needed to be
corrected in the current lifetime. I do not however, get into “who” you
were, or what your position in society was in your past lives.
7. How long is the
reading? And how much do you charge?
All consultation fees and charges may be viewed by clicking on the
‘Consultation Fees’ bar. Payments can be made with credit cards or
through PayPal. The readings usually are for an hour but once in awhile
some clients would request for a follow up for only half hour. I don’t
mind that. And, if the reading goes a little over an hour on the first
consultation, it does not usually result in additional charges.
8. I see that you also
suggest prayers, candles and oils, etc, in your readings. Are they
included in the fee? Where can I find these items?
My suggestions on candles and oils are usually for spiritual
cleansing. Much like our physical body, our Etheric body also needs
bathing. In the said Etheric body, we accumulate thoughts of others (and
our own) that are negative or disharmonious to our well-being. The
result can be psychological dis-ease such as paranoia, anger, fear, etc
and / or result in physical illness. You can purchase both oils and
candles in most metaphysical stores. My non-denominational prayers are
affirmations for well-being and may be requested as part of the reading
without an additional fee.
9. How do I schedule a
reading? And what preparations should I make before my scheduled
reading?
You can either call me at (949) 201-7639 or email me at Marcelina@marcelinaww.com.
If you want to have the reading by phone, I suggest that you have a tape
recorder close to your speaker phone and a pen and paper handy to jot
down some dates that may come up in the reading. All my readings are
taped when you come in person.
10. Where did you
receive your training? Who were your teachers?
I never was trained professionally by any school of thought on how to
become insightful. My own family, my aunts and neighbors, the village I
grew up in were my professors and my university. The songs, stories and
riddles were my textbooks, while the experiences were the exams, that I
passed with flying colors. My interests in Astrology, Tarot and Magic
began in 1986 when we opened The Chela Bookstore (that later became
Mystical Minds Bookstore). We sponsored quality and well known authors,
speakers and teachers on the same subjects.
11. Do you have a
posted code of ethics? What are your personal Beliefs? Philosophy?
As a member of AFA (American
Federation of Astrologers) and NCGR (National
Council of Geocosmic Research) I abide by their Code of Ethics,
(Please log on to their websites for the information). My personal
beliefs and philosophy are as follows:
|
 |
Your privacy is my priority. Any information that may
come up in the reading is for you alone. The moment the
reading is done it is no longer my business. |
|
 |
As a reader, I consider myself as an interpreter of
symbols, or translator of your subconscious mind and not
a fortuneteller. |
|
 |
You as a client are entitled to the information you
wish to find out. As a responsible counselor, I am
equally entitled to refuse to divulge any information
that may be used to harm or manipulate others. Spying or
snooping on others may be one of the occasions where I
will not provide you with assistance. |
|
 |
Because the power of thought can influence life, I
avoid predicting bad events such as death, accidents,
etc. Instead, I’ll forewarn you with great care of a
deteriorating situation that you need to pay attention
to. |
|
 |
I encourage my clients to consult me for counseling
only twice in a year at the most, unless there’s an
emergency, such as a court case situation, or possible
occurrences while traveling. I believe in allowing
others to reach their full potential on their own, with
minimal help from me. |
|
 |
As a professional reader and counselor, my service
business is the providing of consulting time as well as
my skill and expertise and is worthy of reimbursement.
