What’s the difference between a live session and a recorded reading?

A live session takes place over Zoom in real time — we meet, we talk, and the reading unfolds as a conversation. A recorded reading is prepared personally for you and delivered to your inbox as an audio or video file. Both are created with the same depth and care. Live sessions allow for dialogue and follow-up questions in the moment; recorded readings give you something you can return to again and again, on your own time.

Are the recorded readings pre-made or created specifically for me?

Every recorded reading is created specifically for you — not a template, not a generic reading, but a session drawn from your unique chart, question, or intention. After purchase, you’ll submit your information and I’ll prepare your reading personally before delivering it to your inbox.

How do I know which reading is right for me?

A good place to start is your question. If you’re curious about who you are at a foundational level, begin with a Natal Chart Reading. If you’re navigating a specific moment or season of life, a Transit Reading or Solar Return might be the right entry point. If you’re exploring a relationship, the Relational Astrology offerings are designed for exactly that. If you’re drawn to oracle work — tarot, runes, or both — trust that pull. And if you’re still not sure, reach out at info@fromyondershore.com and I’ll help you find the right fit.

Can I request a specific focus for my reading?

Yes — and I encourage it. When you submit your information after purchase, you’ll have the opportunity to share any area of focus, question, or intention you’d like the reading to address. The more specific you are, the more targeted the reading can be. That said, the chart always has its own things to say — I’ll follow both your question and what the chart wants to illuminate.

Do I need to know anything about astrology or tarot to book a reading?

Not at all. These readings are designed to be accessible whether you’re a seasoned student of the symbolic or encountering these systems for the first time. I’ll meet you where you are and translate what the chart or cards are saying in language that is clear, grounded, and meaningful to your actual life.

How far in advance do I need to book a live session?

Live sessions require at least 48 hours’ notice to allow for chart preparation. Available time slots are posted in advance — if you don’t see a time that works for you, reach out at info@fromyondershore.com and we’ll find something that does.

What if I can’t find an available time slot?

Available slots reflect my current working schedule, but they don’t tell the whole story. If you have a specific date or time in mind, or if nothing in the calendar works for you, please reach out directly at info@fromyondershore.com. I’m happy to coordinate something outside of posted hours when possible.

What happens after I book a live session?

You’ll receive a confirmation email with your session details, including a Zoom link and any preparation notes. Please review the information you submitted at booking — that helps me prepare. If anything needs to be updated, reach out before our session.

Can I reschedule or cancel my session?

Yes — please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to reschedule. I’ll do my best to find a new time that works for you. Cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice and no-shows are non-refundable. View the full Refund & Cancellation Policy for details.

What information do I need to provide for my reading?

It depends on the reading. For astrology readings — your full name, date of birth, time of birth, and place of birth. For solar return readings — all of the above plus your current location. For relational readings — all of the above for both people. For oracle readings — your name and your question or intention. After purchase you’ll receive full instructions via email.

How long will it take to receive my recorded reading?

Individual recorded readings are delivered within 2-3 business days of receiving your information. Bundles and extended readings may take up to 5-7 business days. You’ll receive your reading via email as soon as it’s ready.

What format will my recorded reading be delivered in?

Recorded readings are delivered as audio or video files via email. You’ll be able to listen or watch at your own pace and return to it as many times as you like.

What if I don’t receive my reading within the stated timeframe?

Please check your spam or junk folder first. If your reading hasn’t arrived within the stated timeframe, reach out at info@fromyondershore.com and I’ll follow up immediately.

What payment methods do you accept?

All major credit and debit cards are accepted through Stripe, a secure payment processor. Payment is collected in full at the time of booking or purchase.

What is your refund policy?

All sales are final due to the personalized nature of the work. If you purchased a recorded reading and haven’t yet submitted your information, you may be eligible for a full refund within 48 hours of purchase. If I am unable to fulfill your reading for any reason, you will receive a full refund. View the full Refund & Cancellation Policy for compl

Can I give a reading as a gift?

Yes — and it makes a beautiful one. Simply purchase the reading as normal and reach out at info@fromyondershore.com to let me know it’s a gift. I’ll coordinate delivery and timing with you directly.

Are these readings predictive?

The work here is less about prediction and more about illumination. Astrology and oracle systems are symbolic languages — they reveal patterns, themes, tendencies, and invitations. They can point toward likely trajectories, but they don’t determine outcomes. You always have agency. The reading is a map, not a mandate.

I’m going through something really difficult. Is a reading appropriate?

The work here is designed to hold complexity, shadow, and difficulty with care. If you’re navigating grief, transition, uncertainty, or a significant life threshold, a reading can be a meaningful companion to that process. That said, if you are in crisis, please reach out to a mental health professional or crisis support service. A reading is not a substitute for that kind of care — but it can walk alongside it.
