Magick is legit. She is a very special woman, experienced, knowledgeable, intuitive, and without bias. I've gotten multiple readings from her over the course of 7 years, and every time, I've gained clarity, understanding, and confidence. Very thankful that she offers this service. read more

Magick is well...magic! She gives amazing tarot readings and even wrote a book about the tarot that has helped me understand the language of symbols and numbers alive in it. She also always does your numerology for the year which I think informs how she reads the cards. I love that she also works with the IChing! Whenever I'm stumped and just need some life guidance from Spirit and from one of my dearest elders, I call in Magick! She also reads in very magical spots like the botanical gardens in Sf or the local chocolate house in Sebastopol! A nice added touch! read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Magick today as I was at Haight Street. In life sometimes we simply need to follow our intuition, I think. I was happily surprised as I met her by such a coincidence. She did an hour of reading and I have to admit every second was eye-opening. It was so beautiful and kind of her to direct me in a gentle way about the hardships that I shared with her. She is so gentle and yet strong in her presence that even just having been around her, I felt wiser than before. I truly enjoyed my very first reading and I have to admit this is way better than my very first in life:) Thank you Magick! You are so special my dear.. read more

Unfortunately, Magick's "customer service" skills were so off putting my friends and I decided to go else where. I emailed her a coupe weeks in advance to find out if her and her associate April could do a reading with me and two friends but separate readings, due to April and Magick switching locations as part of their business her and I exchanged a few emails. Once I found out her timing and prices I told her I needed to check with my friends as well as she needed to check with April to see what dates worked best as my dates were flexible. Magick did request to chat on the phone when I was asking pricing questions etc. Unfortunately I work in a classroom and a 10am - 1pm time frame she gave me to talk on the phone was really hard. I did however start to confirm the times that we each wanted and she told me that I needed to call her and that she " didn't have time for emails". Sorry what business "doesn't have time for emails"..... said no business ever... Its unfortunate that it turned out this way, we were looking forward to our reading. FYI- Her pricing was: $60 - 30 min $90 - 45 min $120 - hour read more

Magick Altman is a gifted reader who has had my trust for the two years I have been stopping in. What I absolutely appreciate about her reading are her mannerism and mastership. I have work with the Tarot for over 16 years and finding Magick has been such a great and positive experience. Her reading is a part of my self-care. It is therapy to me, I walk in with questions and I leave with an understanding and insight. Her gift is tremendous and true, she is the real deal. I highly recommend her to anyone as she is open-minded and most of all open-hearted. read more

I did one reading with her, and it was right on... so accurate. Now.. i was looking for her again, because i met her on the street and did spontaneous reading with her. So, i was not sure if i can find her again. But.. i found her. I am looking forward for another reading now. Highly recommend. read more

Wow! I was always suspicious of tarot readings and anything of the nature but having grown up in India, I always knew there were seeds of truth in spiritual connection, and universal energy that conventional science cannot explain well. Magick is a very warm and inviting personality. I was intrigued and sat with her 20 minutes and everything she said to me irradiated so much truth and understanding, that I felt she had known me a lifetime. My girlfriend was present with me and after the reading, we began walking down the street only for her to realize 10 minutes alter that she wanted a reading too. This experience certainly opened up the doors of curiosity and growth for me and my girlfriend. Thank you Magick! read more

There are no shortage of practitioners providing some kind of service using psychic abilities, metaphysical systems, or card decks to help guide the seeker. Then there are the rare purveyors of truly intuitive gifts used with both kindness and experience. This second type describes what Magick offers in her Tarot Card Readings. I have received about two dozen readings over the past five or six years from Magick. All of them have been insightful and meaningful to me. I especially like when she says that I pull cards in configurations that she has never seen before, like when I once pulled all Major Arcana cards. Magick clearly has command of her craft. She utilizes her deep understanding of the archetypes, history, and meaning of each tarot card to fully explain how it relates to you. What shows her powerful intuition is when she relates the tarot cards that you yourself pull to very real situations in your life. I have many a time felt so grateful to have a spiritual resource in Magick to provide comfort in difficult situations I sometimes find myself in. Yes, I say spiritual resource because I've learned that someone who has strong intuition, a kind heart, and the wisdom to share it in the right way . . . is quite spiritual. There have been times I got a reading from Magick just to enjoy her wonderful company. She is a special person--it feels so nice to be seen. I have a few friends who are very gifted in the practice of Tarot Card Readings and I have personally received hundreds of all types of readings in my lifetime. Based on that, I would say that Magick is definitely in the top echelon of Tarot Card Readers. Magick does much of her work at Infusions Teahouse & Sonoma Chocolatiers in Sebastopol, California. A place where everyone appreciates a little Magick now and then. Review 0128 read more

Magick concerns herself on a deep level with all things with... well... Magick. There is a deeper meaning behind everything happening in your life and she will help you understand it with her thorough esoteric understanding. Immediately you get the sensation with her that she has deeply entrenched herself with the knowledge of the tarot. Her book is a superb comprehensive breakdown. Her relationship with the symbology is dense. It was fascinating listening to her. Do yourself a favor and get a reading. She will blow your mind! Sebastopol for the win! read more

Just had my first tarot reading EVER with Magick - after hearing about her for years from a dear friend - and I have to say, without exaggerating, it was PERFECT and TOTALLY RIGHT ON. She clearly *sees* the cards, which were so right on I am still stunned . . . Plus, it was FUN!! If you can't see her in person, she does ZOOM or SKYPE. . . . HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! (and I am not an 'easy' sell!) read more

I decided to get my second ever tarot reading on a whim while walking on Haight today and it was such an amazing experience with Magick. She has a kind, comfortable, welcoming presence and I felt immediately that she was well-practiced and such a genuine person. I had a great time talking with her and I'm looking forward to staying in contact, returning for more readings. Absolutely the best experience with a reader of any kind that I've ever had. Thank you!! read more

Rude, harsh and confrontational. If that's what you like in a tarot reader, she's your gal. 4/5 because experiences are subjective, i try to give peeps the benefit of the doubt (maybe she was having a shit day) and who knows, maybe some of ya'll out here in cyberspace are looking for a swift kick in the ass. read more

I just had the most enlightening and grounded reading from this Priestess! She is truly a mystic and reads not only tarot but numerology, and Kabalah. I went to her because my husband and I are looking to buy a house. After and hour with her all my concerns about where to live and finding the right property were cleared and I felt relaxed and in divine flow. Magick's readings help you know the greater cycles and context within which you're moving so you can take appropriate action and let go of distraction. I will continue to work with her for guidance and clarity into the future. read more

I have to admit, I was skeptical that tarot cards were going to give me the guidance I sought. I'm so thankful that I went in for a reading! Magick validated everything that was occurring in my life and gave me the guidance that I was seeking. She has a beautiful open energy that allowed me to soak up everything like a sponge! Her reading allowed me to circle in on the problem and see all the consequences it was causing. Because of her validation and advice, I immediately took action and corrected my course. I'm so grateful :) read more

I have had readings in person and on Skype. Magick provides insights that have given me things to think about and have provided clarity for questions I have been pondering. I recommend her if you are looking for a tarot reading. read more

My tarot reading session with Magick was both clarifying and fun. I asked for guidance in my career path and recieved an excellent reading that helped confirm my nagging suspicion that I was pursuing a particular career for the wrong reasons. The reading helped me trust myself, define my values and get down to what was important to me. Magick's approach was insightful and focused on the positive, and she has a great sense of humor! read more

Okay, second time I have employed Magick's services. This time it was for a gathering that ended up having over 180 people. Talk about stress! Magick did three card readings for folks throughout the night, and a special 'world reading' for the entire group. Although it is impossible to reach even half a crowd this large, we are still getting positive feedback on her. HIRE THIS WOMAN NOW is all I can say. read more

I've been going to Magick for nearly 20 years and her readings always bring clarity and inspire me. I usually go when my life is getting too complicated and I can't seem to separate the wheat from the shaft. Magick's readings collect all the loose threads and tattered edges and pull them together to show how they make sense. A gifted reader, with a phenomenal memory, her readings get to the crux of the matter in people's lives. The Tarot is a wonderful guidance tool, and Magick is an expert reader. I highly recommend her without reservation. read more

I've known Magick since the 1980s. She was introduced to me by a mutual friend, and I've always been so glad I met her. She has a superb knowledge of the Tarot, astrology, i-ching, and more. Once you have a reading with her, you'll be sold. She's one of THE best Tarot readers...and I know several. I highly recommend Magick to anyone who is interested in gaining direction, insight and knowledge. You will be amazed at what comes up and makes sense to you. A reading often acknowledges things you had only in the back of your mind. read more

If you are looking for a direct line to the divine, call Magick! I have known and trusted her for 22 years and she has provided advice and divine guidance for me on the biggest decisions of my life. Her readings are the most conscious gift of love that I can give myself. She is calm and wise, with a deep understanding of both people and and the tarot. I am unendingly grateful to her for being in my life...... read more

Magick's readings are both perceptive and thought-provoking. She infuses her extensive knowledge of the tarot with insight from astrology and numerology as well. I have had several readings from her and they have all been very different - which demonstrates she allows the cards drawn for that day to lead the reading. She is intuitive and asks good questions that leave me reflecting about the reading hours later. Magick is also an interesting and sincere person and it comes across in her work. (The tea shop she works in front of is also a nice place to have the reading, and they have wonderful tea.) read more
