Frequently Asked Questions
Welcome to Occultural. We understand that venturing into the world of metaphysics, whether for a tarot reading or ritual work, can sometimes feel intimidating or mysterious. Our goal is to provide clarity, comfort, and transparency in every service we offer.
Below are answers to common questions to help you feel confident and at ease with our process.
General & Ethics
Is what you do "dark" or dangerous?
Absolutely not. Our practice is rooted in positivity, empowerment, and self-reflection. We view tools like Tarot, Runes, and spell work as methods to focus intention and gain insight, not to invite negativity. We approach every session with the highest respect for our clients and the energies we work with.
Is my session confidential?
Yes. Every reading, ritual request, and consultation is held in strict confidence. We create a judgment-free space where you can speak openly about your concerns, hopes, and questions.
Do you guarantee specific results for spell work?
In the metaphysical world, we work with intentions and energy. While we dedicate our full focus, skill, and resources to your request, we cannot ethically guarantee a specific outcome (e.g., "This spell will make X fall in love with me by Tuesday"). We work to open paths and shift energy in your favor, but the universe—and free will—plays a role.
Readings (Tarot & Runes)
What is the difference between a Tarot reading and a Rune casting?
Tarot typically provides a narrative overview of a situation, offering insight into psychological states, external influences, and potential outcomes based on current trajectories.
Rune Casting is an ancient Germanic tradition that tends to be more direct and elemental. It is excellent for specific questions or understanding the "forces" at play in a situation.
Do I need to be present for the reading?
Not necessarily. We offer both live sessions (virtual or in-person if applicable) and recorded/email readings. For distance readings, we will focus on your energy and specific questions, then send you a detailed report or recording of the session.
Can you tell me when I will die or lottery numbers?
No. We do not answer questions regarding death dates, medical diagnoses, or gambling numbers. Our readings are designed to empower you to make better choices, not to predict fixed, unchangeable fates.
Rituals & Spell Work
How does purchasing a ritual work?
When you book a ritual or spell work service, we will first consult with you to understand your specific goal (e.g., protection, abundance, clarity). We then perform the work on your behalf at our altar using appropriate herbs, candles, and correspondence. You will receive photos or a video summary of the work once it is completed.
Do you do "love spells" or hexes?
We operate with a strong ethical code.
Love Spells: We focus on self-love, attraction, and opening the heart. We do not perform work intended to dominate another person's free will or force specific individuals to act against their nature.
Baneful Magic (Hexes): We focus on protection, uncrossing (removing negativity), and justice. We generally advise against baneful magic as we believe in keeping our own energetic space clean and positive.

What is your cancellation policy?
