Let’s talk shop.
For the past two decades, I’ve worn many hats: astrologer, psychic, horary interpreter, content creator, and occasional digital janitor—because running your own website often means fixing your own messes. But after years of offering private sessions through my site and juggling all the backend work that comes with it, I’ve decided to shift my practice entirely to Keen.
Here’s why that matters—for both of us.
1. Credit Card Companies Aren’t Fond of ‘Infotainment’
Surprise: psychic readings, astrology consultations, and spiritual services fall into a shady little corner called “infotainment.” It’s an industry label that basically says, “This service doesn’t produce a tangible good, so we don’t trust it.”
That means banks and credit card companies view what I do as high-risk. They don’t like it. They flag it. They shut it down. And no, it doesn’t matter that I’ve had a stable, professional practice for 25+ years. The psychic industry—along with adult content and anything they don’t understand—gets lumped together in the same box.
Working through Keen helps bypass all that nonsense. Keen handles the payment processing, billing, fraud prevention, and customer service. No more merchant account headaches. No more unexplained account freezes. No more dancing around absurd industry red tape.
⚡ 2. Clients Want Instant Insight—Not Hour-Long Lectures
Let’s be real: the days of two-hour consultations where we spend the first 20 minutes talking about your Saturn return and your last relationship are mostly over.
Most people want quick, specific answers to pressing questions—now, not next Thursday. They want to connect with someone who understands the patterns at play, gives them clear insight, and lets them move forward without fluff.
Keen’s on-demand platform is built for that exact need. You want a five-minute answer at midnight? You’ve got it. You want to send a quick question by text or set up a call the moment I’m online? Done.
It’s consulting for the modern era—concise, accessible, and timely.
3. Keen Handles the Logistics, So I Can Focus on You
One of the biggest perks of working through Keen is that I no longer have to deal with billing, disputes, no-shows, or awkward “Hey, your PayPal didn’t go through” conversations. Keen handles all of it.
They also manage the scheduling system. Their tools allow clients to:
- Text me directly through their Ping service.
- Send emails.
- Get notified the moment I log in.
- Join a queue so you know you’re next in line.
This means I can spend less time being a receptionist and more time being what you came to me for—a reader.
4. Built-In Advertising That Doesn’t Break the Bank
Anyone who’s run a spiritual business online knows that Google Ads and Facebook marketing are expensive—and in some cases, blocked outright. Try putting the word “psychic” in an ad headline without a few algorithms slapping your hand.
Keen’s internal promotion system gets you in front of new clients without the cost of bidding wars or trying to outsmart social media censors. It’s one of the few places where being a psychic or astrologer is welcomed—not shadowbanned.
5. Transparent Feedback Is the Real Deal
Let’s get something out in the open: not everyone likes me. (Gasp!) And honestly, that’s true for every reader.
But here’s the thing—on Keen, you see every review. The good, the great, and the occasional “he didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear” meltdown. It’s transparent and real. No cherry-picked testimonials slapped onto a website to make me sound like the Oracle of Delphi.
If you want an honest reader with honest feedback, you’ve got it.
6. Horary Is Still On the Table
If you’re one of my longtime clients who comes to me for horary astrology—the good news is, I’m still offering it. Just click the Horary Readings section at the top of the page.
7. I Want to Create More Content—This Makes It Possible
By letting Keen handle the business side of things, I finally have more room to create what I love most: teaching, writing, and storytelling. I want to write more articles, record more podcasts, and maybe even do that video series I’ve been putting off for years.
This shift lets me reclaim my time and focus it where it counts.
8. Keen Is My Patreon, But for Consultations
Here’s a simple way to look at it: Keen is like my Patreon, except instead of paying for content, you’re paying for direct access to me.
- On Patreon, you subscribe for written, audio, or video perks.
- On Keen, you pay per minute to get answers, clarity, and insight—live and personalized.
It’s modern, streamlined, and flexible—just like the rest of the world is moving.
️ 9. Two Decades Strong with Keen
I’ve been on Keen for over 20 years. That’s not a typo. It’s a relationship I value, and it’s allowed me to run a successful, professional, and well-managed business without compromising my ethics or my work.
They’ve grown. I’ve grown. And now we’re moving forward together.
If you’ve ever thought about getting a reading with me, the easiest way—the best way—is through Keen. It’s fast. It’s secure. And most importantly, it works for where the world is headed.
See you there.
Warmly,
Storm
