Q2: Does the academy teach or encourage fortune-telling or supernatural practices?
Our academy does not focus on or endorse fortune-telling or supernatural practices. While we acknowledge that Tarot has elements traditionally associated with prediction, our teaching emphasizes its role as both a tool for reflection and life guidance. We help students develop self-awareness, critical thinking, and practical Tarot skills. The goal is to provide insights that empower clients and support mindful decision-making, rather than relying on fixed predictions.

2. Guidelines for Ethical Tarot Practice
1. Reframe Questions Thoughtfully
We encourage reframing predictive questions to promote reflection and action. However, relational and third-party questions such as "How does he/she feel about me?" are important and can provide healing and empowerment when guided correctly.
These questions help clients trust the process and navigate relationships with greater awareness. Readers are trained to handle such questions with empathy, focusing on empowering clients to take positive steps.
2. Avoid Predictive Readings on Sensitive Topics
Readers must avoid definitive predictions on matters requiring professional expertise, such as:
- Pregnancy: To direct clients to medical professionals.
- Legal Issues: Avoid offering legal advice or predicting case outcomes.
- Financial Advice: Refrain from forecasting financial success or giving investment advice.
3. Respect Privacy and Boundaries in a Balanced Way
While Tarot readings can explore third-party dynamics (e.g., how someone may feel or act), readers must approach these topics carefully, respecting both the client’s privacy and that of others involved. The focus should always be on helping the client reflect on their own role and decisions in the situation. This ensures that clients feel empowered without overstepping ethical boundaries.
By handling such questions with care, readers provide valuable insights that encourage clients to take ownership of their relationships and personal growth.
4. Use Compassionate, Balanced Language
The language used in readings should guide clients constructively and avoid fear-based or definitive statements. Readers are trained to offer insights in a supportive and balanced manner.
5. Focus on Personal Responsibility
We teach that Tarot is a tool for reflection, not fate. Clients and students are guided to take ownership of their decisions, promoting mindfulness and self-awareness.
6. Stay Neutral and Inclusive
Our academy welcomes students from diverse beliefs and backgrounds. We do not promote any religious or spiritual doctrine. Tarot is positioned as a tool for personal insight and reflection.
3. Our Commitment to Accuracy
At Purac Soul Tarot Academy, a key focus is teaching students to develop accuracy in their Tarot readings. This involves mastering thoughtful and unbiased interpretations, not making predictions.
We achieve this through:
- Understanding Symbolism: Students learn to deeply analyse and contextualize Tarot symbols.
- Practicing Clarity: We emphasize clear and concise communication to ensure clients easily understand readings.
- Avoiding Assumptions: Students are taught to avoid projecting personal biases onto their readings.
Guided by critical thinking, clarity, and precision, Purac Soul empowers students to master Tarot with ethical integrity. We foster adaptable, responsible practice that encourages deep self-reflection, mindful action, and respect for others.
