Are there any members who are endorsed with TABI? I have looked into it, and it is something that I would like to do in the future - perhaps in the summer.
How daunting is the process - is it difficult to get accepted?
Many Thanks

Hi Lilac
I'm glad you asked this question as I've been on the website yesterday trying to pluck up the courage to become a member and work towards getting endorsed.
I'm just worried that because I rely on intuition my readings won't be good enough.
I hope someone replies, I was going to go on the web site again today.

Glad to help!
My only concern is the piece on the website which says that your application is assessed by an application panel. It sounds quite scary!
Hopefully there will be an indorsed reader who can set our minds at rest!

Hiya, I did it a few years ago, it may of changed since then but from what I remember is the initial test reading that you do is just to ascess how you present a reading, your given a fictional situation (ie when harry met sally) and you have to give the reading for either Harry or Sally. You only use up to 3 tarot cards for a reading & also you have to describe each card, they're pritty laid back so it's nothing to be worried about! When you go ahead with the endorsment thing you have a mentor (I think...can't remember is thats the right word[&:]) who checks through your readings, after you've done 21 readings that have passed the TABI standards then you become a TABI endorsed reader..pritty simple really, although you do need to do x amount of readings to keep your endorsement & also you used to have to keep your payments up too
Although..as I said it was years ago that I did it so I may be wrong or things could of changed, theres a few TABI readers here on HP so I'm sure someone who can tell you exactly how it works will be along shortly..if not maybe just email them & ask them;)

RE: TABI endorsement scheme
Hi,
I am Tabi trained, and the course itself was great, but I decided not to do the endorsement process, because they do expect you to produce very 'textbook' readings withno room for any intuitive input.
While you are going through the endorsement, each reading you do is checked by a mentor before it is sent out, who makes sure it adheres to Tabi guidlines. This is fair enough, as they have obviously decided on this approach, but in my opinion the result is a pretty dry, lifeless reading, which seems a shame.
Having said that, Tabi is in all other respects, a very good organisation. Butit would be great if they were a little more flexible when it comes to readings.
