Where it all began

The Practitioner

Most people do not come to Karsa Bintang because things are going well. They come because something is unclear, be it a decision that keeps circling, a chapter that feels stuck, or a path that once felt obvious and no longer does. They come because thinking alone has not been enough.Karsa Bintang was built at the intersection of structure and intuition, rigour and symbol, the ancient and the strategic. A practice that grew quietly for sixteen years, deepened through an architecture education that taught how to read as well as think in systems and hold the complexity of the world, sharpened all the more by business principles and acumen.The result is a practice that does not choose between rigour and intuition, because the most precise readings have always required both. Every session is designed to be returned to. Every insight is meant to move you, beginning from comfort but never dwelling on it.

We're ready when you are.

Sessions are prepared with care and limited each month.

Code of Ethical Conduct

Adherence to Applicable Laws. A divinatory professional will take the initiative to be knowledgeable of all applicable laws including but not limited to fortune telling statutes and local municipal codes that may cover their business or the practice of divination.
Scope of Profession. The tarot professional applies divination in a way that falls outside the scope of occult sciences and is not reading tarot in a manner that claims or purports to tell fortunes, or with the ability to foretell with any certainty future events, or disclose in unequivocal terms the mental faculties of any persons.
Role of the Tarot Professional. The divinatory professional provides a client with spiritual guidance and serves to empower the client toward making more spiritually empowered decisions for him or herself within the framework of the client’s own personal spiritual beliefs or practices.
Limitations. A divinatory professional shall never claim the ability to cure another of ailments outside the lawful practice of medicine or provide financial benefits outside the lawful practice of financial analysis and management. The divinatory professional shall never purport to offer legal, medical, or financial advice. Unless the divinatory professional also possesses the applicable educational background, licensures, certifications, and/or qualifications to be a psychologist, therapist, counselor, or other mental health professional, they shall not purport to be one.
Referrals to Qualified Professionals. A divinatory professional owes a reasonable duty of care to his or her client and if an inquiry touches upon legal matters, even by a tangential connection or in passing, the tarot professional will refer the client to seek the counsel of a licensed attorney. If an inquiry touches upon health or medical matters, even by a tangential connection or in passing, the divinatory professional will refer the client to seek diagnosis by a licensed medical doctor. If an inquiry touches upon financial or real property matters, even by a tangential connection or in passing, the divinatory professional will refer the client to seek advice from a qualified financial consultant, analyst, or real estate professional.
Duty to Reject Subsequent Reading Requests. If at any time a divinatory professional believes or has reason to believe that a client is using divination to substitute, and not merely supplement, counseling from a qualified mental health professional, then they have a duty to reject subsequent reading requests from the client and to refer the client to seek qualified mental professional support. However, divinatory readings may be used as a supplement to qualified counseling or serve the function of life coaching or general spiritual guidance.
No Dishonesty, Fraud, Deceit, or Misrepresentations. A divinatory professional shall not use tarot in a way that purports definitive and absolute knowledge of the future or of matters that are otherwise hidden or occult. The divinatory professional shall not represent him or herself as matter-of-factly having communication, access to, or knowledge of any supernatural phenomena. The divinatory professional shall never guarantee any one outcome, positive or negative. A divinatory professional shall never engage in deceptive business or unfair trade practices. A divinatory professional shall make no misrepresentations about their competency, certifications, qualifications, or abilities.The Reading Process. A divinatory professional is encouraged to make reasonable efforts to communicate his or her reading or interpretive process and analytical or intuitive methods, particular traditions, or the interpretive framework utilized. A divinatory professional will refrain from communicating to a client about curses or the manifestation of malicious intentions through supernatural or occult means.
Disclosures. A divinatory professional shall make reasonable efforts to disclose to all clients that tarot readings cannot replace the counseling services of a mental health professional, and a divinatory professional can never guarantee his or her accuracy in the interpretation of a reading. Also, if and when divinatory practice would be explicitly barred by a jurisdiction’s applicable laws, then the divinatory professional must communicate to the client in clear, unambiguous terms that such readings are to be for entertainment purposes.
No Duty to Retain Records. A divinatory professional does not owe a client any duty to retain the client’s reading records. A divinatory professional may, at the discretion of their customary practice, retain records or files on client readings.
Records Retention. If a divinatory professional does elect to retain client records, then he or she must develop and maintain appropriate record-keeping systems for storing their clients’ personal information in a manner that will reasonably preserve the clients’ confidentiality and privacy.Statement of Fees. A divinatory professional shall state his or her service fees before the start of a reading and cannot later raise or increase the stated fee unless prior contractual terms allow for the increase. The divinatory professional must clearly communicate his or her fee schedule and payment terms prior to the commencement of any reading. A fee for any service that is $500.00 USD or more must be contractually agreed upon in writing.
No Pressure for Additional Services. A divinatory professional shall never pressure, compel, or even imply to clients that additional paid services from them are needed after the reading. A divinatory professional shall never purport to possess the power to manipulate the outcome of events through supernatural or occult means.
Referral Fees. If a divinatory professional makes a referral, then they must disclose whether any referral fees have been paid as compensation or consideration for the referral.Duty of Confidentiality. Although there is not likely to be a legal evidentiary privilege between a divinatory professional and client, a divinatory professional nonetheless agrees on his or her own accord to be bound by a duty of confidentiality. A divinatory professional shall not reveal personal or private information relating to a client reading unless that client has given informed consent.
Reasonable Diligence to Protect Confidentiality. The divinatory professional shall exercise reasonable efforts to prevent the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of or access to information relating to his or her clients, which includes password protection to any electronic accounts, computers, or data storage units that would include client files and lock and key to any physical storage units containing hard copy files.
Exceptions. However, tarot professionals may reveal personal or otherwise private information relating to a client reading if the tarot professional reasonably believes it is necessary to prevent substantial bodily harm or death, or a court order overrides the confidentiality. Partial information from a divinatory reading may be disclosed under the client’s anonymity for academic, civic, census, survey, or research purposes.General Practice Disclosures. A divinatory professional shall post a disclosure statement prominently at office locations, storefronts, on websites, reading venues, or commercial marketing materials that states essentially as follows:
Disclosure Statement: A divinatory professional cannot predict the future with certainty and you should not rely on a divinatory reading to make any decision that would affect your legal, financial, or medical condition. If your inquiry involves the law, finance, or medicine, then you should seek the advice of a licensed or qualified legal, financial, or medical professional. Also, tarot reading cannot replace qualified mental health care. A divinatory reading can only facilitate how you cope spiritually with a given situation. In certain jurisdictions, a divinatory professional is required to disclose to you that divinatory readings should be for entertainment purposes only, and if such a law applies to your reading, then you are hereby on notice thereof. Your divinatory professional is bound by a self-imposed code of ethics, which can be provided to you upon request.Certification Disclosures. A divinatory professional is not required to be certified. However, if they obtain a certification related to their divinatory practice, the divinatory professional will disclose the certifying body or organization that issued the certification.Public Service. A divinatory professional is encouraged to dedicate at least 10% of his or her practice per year to public service, such as offering reading services to support fundraisers for non-profit organisations or charitable causes, free readings to persons of limited financial means, teaching tarot to others free of charge, creating educational materials on tarot for the public free of charge, or participating in activities with the mission of improving the practice of tarot or the divinatory profession.Continuing Education. A divinatory professional shall take the initiative to continue his or her divinatory education for the full duration of and throughout his or her professional practice. A divinatory professional is encouraged to take classes or workshops on divination, attend conferences, symposia, or conventions, meet and collaborate with other divination professionals, regularly read on the practice of divination, and exercise diligent efforts to hone the divinatory professional’s craft and skill.
