Stop Being Taken For A Ride By Tarot Readers!

"I'm Going To Blow The Lid Off The Great Tarot Scam, And Tell You What They Don't Want You To Know!"

By James Steem

Tarot reading is big business! If you've ever paid for a reading, you'll know what I mean. Tarot readers don't come cheap. Sure, some are supposed to be free, but are they really?

Right here, right now, I am going to expose these people for what they really are.


I'm taking a big risk by writing this. Why?

Because they don't want you to know the truth.

They want to keep taking your money.

They want you to believe that they have special skills, secret talents.

And they'll stop at nothing to keep it that way.

But the fact it

It's All Lies!

Tarot reading is EASY. Anyone can do it. Me, you, anyone who can pick up a deck of tarot cards, can do a great tarot reading.

And you know what? Apart from buying a tarot deck (for just a few dollars if you know where to look), it won't cost you a single red cent to read your own cards!

And what's more...

Your own readings will be BETTER than those that any so-called tarot reader can give you!

There are two reasons why:

1. Most so-called tarot readers are skilled scam-artists, using common confidence tricks to literally take money from your wallet

2. A real tarot reading taps into your own 'aura', or inner energy. So the person the most qualified to read your cards, is YOU. Your direct influence over the cards, and your unique interpretation will give you a better reading than anyone else possibly can. And what's more, it's EASY and ANYONE can do it (I'll tell you how in a moment).

I've learned a lot about reading tarot cards. And when I wanted to turn professional, I tried to break into the market.

It wasn't easy, I found that professional tarot readers were a closely knit community, very secretive, and very difficult to get to know. So I went undercover. I pretended I had years of experience, and eventually I managed to gain their trust and get on the inside.

What I found shocked me to my core. And it filled me with such a burning rage, I decided I had to do something to show people the truth. That's why I've decided to...

Expose the great 'Tarot Scam'

If you've ever had a tarot reading, you probably know how it goes.

You walk into a room that's heavily decorated, probably highly scented, and maybe there's a candle burning for ambiance.

This is the first sign that you're about to be taken for a ride. This is what's called 'dressing the scene'. It's a trick used by all kinds of con-artists, and the idea is simple - to take you out of your comfort zone.

When you're outside of your comfort zone, you're immediately more open to be scammed. Your normal defenses are busy dealing with the unknown and unusual surroundings, leaving you defenseless in the face of the enemy.

You might think that sounds a bit over-the-top, but they are the enemy! Remember, they have one goal in mind: To take as much of your cash as possible!

But they're smart. Some of them might even offer you a free reading. This is like a drug-dealer offering a kid a free hit! They know that once the kid is hooked, he'll be back for more, and willing to pay dearly for the magic powder.

Professional tarot readers are just like drug dealers!

So the reading starts. You chat a bit about what kind of questions you want answered. The reader might then talk a bit about the kind of spread they'll use to do your reading. The chances are, they'll throw in some technical sounding words to emphasize their apparently superior knowledge.

The cards are then drawn, and (sometimes with a lot of theatrical effort), the reader starts to interpret the cards.

Here's where the scam really gets going.

Based on the question you asked, the tarot reader will use a technique called COLD READING. This is a simple concept, and it's where the readers skill really lies.

Cold reading is a technique used by many confidence tricksters. It involves watching a person closely for tiny giveaway signs that tell the tarot reader they are on the right track. An example will make this easier to understand.

Let's imagine that you had asked for a reading about your job, because you were having big problems at work. The reader already has some good solid information to go on just from that. So they draw the first card, which perhaps is supposed to signify the the cause of the problem.

The reader might say something like "This card tells me that there is another person involved in this problem"

The fact is, if you're having work issues, there is a strong chance that someone else is involved - a boss or a colleague who is making life difficult. It's hardly rocket science to work that out!

But outside your comfort zone, in strange surroundings with your defenses down, and with an apparently highly skilled tarot reader in front of you, this 'revelation' by the cards seems amazing!

So as they tell you this, the reader watches you closely. If there really is someone else at the heart of the problem, as they have suggested, you'll give some kind of indication that this is so - perhaps an involuntary sharp intake of breath, or a look of surprise. It will be so small, you wont notice yourself.

But the reader will, they'll be looking out for it.

This tells them that they're on the right track! Now they know they should continue with this theme of 'another person'.

On the other hand, if what the reader said didn't ring true, you would look unsure or even confused. An experienced cold reader will see this instantly in your eyes, and will immediately cover themselves by saying something like "But this person has kept their actions well hidden..." and will then attempt a different line.

They'll continue like this, pushing forward and pulling back, reading your giveaway body language for clues.

And all the time, you will focus on the things they say which are true. With every 'revelation', you fall deeper under their spell. Your belief in their abilities becomes stronger and stronger.

Of course, a good reader will then offer you some advice, such as what to do to solve this problem. They'll tell you that the cards are saying you should do certain things.

But in all honesty, at this point in the reading they can say virtually anything they like! After all, having performed a cold reading on you, you are now convinced that the cards are telling them your innermost secrets and must know everything!

So the reader gives some very non-specific advice, and the reading is over. Your mind is still running wild, in awe of all the truths that the cards have apparently told, so you're not focusing on the useless advice the reader gave.

Which is why you happily pay the heavy fee that the reader then charges you!

Fast forward a few weeks, and perhaps you problem was resolved, perhaps it wasn't. But you know what? To the tarot reader, it doesn't make any difference, because life is full of perceived problems. The next time you have something to worry about, they know you'll be back for another 'amazing' reading. They've got you hooked, and your soul - and wallet - belongs to them.

So is tarot all a lie?

Not at all!

Tarot cards really can answer a lot of questions. In fact, almost any question you can think of can be answered by a set of tarot cards.

Remember, I learned how to read tarot cards, and it really wasn't difficult. All it took was some of my time to wade through twenty or thirty text books, and some time to practice.

But you don't have to do that!

You see, as part of my pledge to expose the tarot scam, I also decided I should show people how easy learning real tarot is.

I spent weeks and weeks trying to work out the best way to show people how easy it is to do their own tarot reading.

And then it hit me. Video!

So I created the worlds first, and only, video tarot course. For a while, I sold that video course...

It was available as a set of DVDs, and those lucky people who bought it, were able to learn how to do their own genuine tarot readings, in just over 2 hours. Well, 2 hours 1 minute and 54 seconds to be precise – the running time of the thirteen videos that made up the DVD set.

I used to sell the DVDs for one hundred and twenty seven dollars, and my customers were very happy to pay that.  After all, most of them had paid much more than that to so-called tarot readers, just to be cold-read and scammed. My DVDs showed them how to do real readings that really helped them!

The DVDs are no longer available.

Why did I stop selling them? Because I found a better, and much much cheaper way, to show you the very same videos! In a minute, I'll tell you about that, but first, here's a case study from one of my earliest DVD customers:
Case Study #1

Trudy suspected her husband was having an sneaky affair behind her back. He'd started working late most nights, and even the odd weekend – something he'd never done before.

Trudy used her deck of tarot cards to find out the truth. She wanted to pose the question “Is my husband having an affair?”

Then she remembered what my DVDs had taught her, and she decided to re-phrase her question in a way that could give her more information than just a simple yes or no.

Eventually she came up with the question “Why has my husband's behavior changed the way it has?”

Trudy told me how when she did her reading she started to cry. But they were tears of joy, not sadness, because the cards gave a very clear answer: They told her that her husband wanted to start a family. In preparation, he was doing everything he could to get a promotion in his company, a position in which he would be earning more money and working closer to home – closer to his new family.

If Trudy had just had a simple “no affair” answer, she would have been left wondering the reason for her husbands new routine. But with the depth of her reading, she was able to go home and talk to her husband about his desire to start a family.

Trudy and her husband now have a son, and are very happy.

I love Trudy's story because it's a perfect example of how proper tarot readings, done personally, can really change your life for the better.

Imagine if she hadn't used the cards...she probably would have convinced herself that her husband was having an affair. Her jealousy would have eaten away at her, her attitude towards him would have changed, and that would have created huge problems in their marriage.

Instead, having watched my videos and knowing how to use a simple pack of tarot cards, she was able to turn round her relationship the same day!

Here's another great case study of someone who was able to turn around their life simply by using their cheap little deck of tarot cards:

Case Study #2

Mark was someone who suffered from low self-confidence. He was uncomfortable around other people, and that made his life very difficult. He had trouble holding down jobs because he found personal interaction hard. And in turn, that meant he often had money worries. Of course, he was also single and had all but given up hope of meeting a 'special someone'.

That was before Mark started using tarot. The DVDs showed him a very simple spread that he could use every day. Each morning, as part of his routine, Mark used my daily tarot spread. It gave him clues about what to expect from the day ahead. Only clues mind you, just little hints about what lay in store for him for the next 24 hours at a time. But it was enough to make all the difference.

Because when Mark saw the cards predictions come true each day, he became more and more confident in both the cards, and in his ability to read them.

That little confidence, that knowing he could do something well, was like a seed that had been planted inside him. Each day it grew, and Mark began to change.

That wasn't all though. As his confidence in the cards got stronger, he started using his cards to answer specific questions. He asked things like “What kind of work would suit me?” and “What do I need to do to find the right job?” And the cards gave him answers. Every time.

Today Mark is a different person. He has a great job as a commercial artist (something he would never dared dream of before), a nice apartment, new car, in fact – all the trimmings of a successful life. If you met Mark now, you wouldn't believe he was once a shy, unhappy guy with no life and no future. His fiancée certainly had a hard time believing it.

Mark's story shows how how just a tiny thing can make huge improvements in life. For him that change was simply looking at one single tarot card each morning! That little change was like knocking over the first domino in a whole great long line - once it started - nothing could stop it. It put Marks whole life in a new direction.

Before I tell you more about the videos, and how you can watch them, here's one more case study:

Case Study #3

Emma had been trying to learn tarot from books, but she wasn't getting anywhere. She said all the explanations were dry and dull, but she desperately wanted to learn how to read the cards herself. She'd previously been scammed out of a lot of cash, by so-called professional readers.

Then she got my original DVD set. As I'd just finished recording the Tarot Ca$h video, I gave her a copy to ask her for her feedback. Here's the actual email I received from her a few days later:

Dear James, Tarot by Video is great.  Although I haven't completed the whole course yet, from what I have used I find it user friendly and fun.  With a bit of practice and when i get more spare time to complete the whole course I will be an expert and able do readings for paying customers. Already I am doing them for friends who are willing to pay me to do their cards.

Tarot Ca$h is a very special video, which I'll explain to you in a second.

So if my DVD's are no longer available, you may be wondering why I'm telling you all of this?

Because thanks to the power of the internet,

Now you can watch all my tarot videos right in your web browser!

You can get the same 13 tarot videos that my customers paid well over a hundred dollars for, just by joining my new Tarot By Video membership area.

Here's how it works: For a modest one-off  membership fee, you can have lifetime access to the Tarot By Video private members site. Membership gives you the following benefits:

Membership Benefit #1:

Here's a look at the videos in more detail:

Video SetVideo One - Introduction to Tarot

This introductory video quickly gets you up to speed on the basics of Tarot. Just some of what you'll discover includes:
Video Set Video Set Two - The Major Arcana

In this set of three videos, I talk you through Major Arcana cards. I show you how easy it really is to understand these cards.

In the videos, I actually highlight important elements of the cards on the screen as I talk. It's like I'm sitting next to you with the cards in front of us, as I quite literally show you what the card means.

When you see the cards this way, you'll immediately see just how simple it is to use them, and why you don't need piles of stuffy old books to do your own readings.

Video SetVideo Set Three - The Minor Arcana

The four videos in this set continue our journey through the Tarot deck. I walk you through the Minor Arcana, once again, showing you on screen how to use each of the cards.

Using my amazing visual system, you'll easily remember what all of the cards mean, and will never be in any doubt about what a card is telling you when it turns up in a reading.

Video SetVideo Set Four - Shuffles and Spreads

In the three videos in this set, we get into how to do a tarot reading. Among many other things, you'll see:
Video Set Video Set Five - Interpreting The Cards

Once again - practice is better than theory! This video will show you how to interpret your cards once you've laid them out. I don't just show you how to do a Tarot spread then leave you dangling! I show you:
Video SetVideo Set Six - Putting It All Together

Because this is a practical course in Tarot, it wouldn't be complete without this video. I actually walk you through a sample Tarot reading, from start to finish. I lay out the cards, and interpret them live in front of you.


There's simply no better way to get to grips with everything you've learned than by watching this sample reading. After this, you're ready to go it alone!

That's thirteen videos, a total of two hours one minute and fifty four seconds.

Membership Benefit #2:

WorkbooksYou'll also get a full set of tarot workbooks to read on your computer or print out.

These books contain notes from all the videos. That means you don't need to take your own notes as I've already done it for you. This saves you even more time!


Membership Benefit #3:


Tarot quick reference charts to read on your computer or print out. Remember, there is more to understanding a tarot card that just knowing its basic meaning, and I teach you all those other aspects in the videos. But the basic meanings are an important element, and I have compiled them into these quick reference cards for you. They act as a memory-jogger, so you never need get stuck in your interpretation.

Membership Benefit #4:

Video Set(This one is huge) Tarot Ca$h video – make money with tarot. I debated with myself long and hard about including this video.

You know how I feel about people who make money from tarot readings, so it seemed strange for me to even make this video. It wasn't included on the original DVDs as I deemed it too valuable to give away even to paying customers. But for now, it's in the membership package.

Tarot Ca$h shows you how you can start giving tarot readings and get paid for them. In the video, I show you step by step the best ways of finding customers who are ready and waiting to hand over real money for your readings.

There is a shortage of genuine tarot readers, but no shortage of customers. I show you how to find them, how to determine how much to charge, and how to know when you're ready to go pro.

Membership Benefit #5:

Library Tarot reference library. As you've probably noticed, I'm no great fan of books for
learning tarot! But once you've got the videos under your belt, you might want to explore other areas of the cards. Different perspectives, and different dimensions.

The collection of books included in the reference library will let you do just that. They're all sitting in the private members area ready for you when you want to take a look. You can download them to your computer to read on screen or print out, as you prefer.

Membership Benefit #6:

Membership Card Free updates for life. Your one-time membership fee gives you access to the private site for life. But not only that, any time I add new videos, audios, or indeed anything else to the members area, you'll automatically get access to it for free.

Even if I put up the price of membership later on, you won't pay any extra – once you're in, you're in!

You might be wondering how much all of this costs? In fact,

I'm Virtually Giving It Away!

The 13 videos used to sell on DVD for $127 alone, and it's hard to put a price on the Tarot Ca$h video because it can make you almost as much money as you want. And then there's the workbooks, the reference library, the list goes on...

So you might be surprised to learn that lifetime access to the private members area, is yours for just $47. That's a one-time fee. You pay it once, and you're in for life. Nothing else to pay, ever.

Like I said, I believe tarot can bring you such huge benefits, I don't want price to be a barrier for you, which is why I am almost giving away entry.

This Price Is Valid Until Midnight, 31st July 2008
