READINGS CONFERENCE

This is a very unique and specialized service. It is truly one-to-one 
personal service.Turtle Heart has many credentials in these areas and is a caring
and articulate reader. The BBS offeres a unique, in-depth and personal
reading service unique in its richness and depth.

This conference is dedicated to providing readings, counsel and
learning from the combined medicine forms of Astrology, Oriental
medicine, and focused native american practices.

This conference contains PRIVATE MESSAGES to registered clients
only.

Fees for this conference are negotiable. Services include short-term
and long time membership options. You may also join this conference
if you are a dedicated person in any healing or support form. Through
the conference you can talk to others dedicated along similar lines, 
as well as establish elegibility for on-going teachings in the
medicine forms practiced by Turtle Heart.

This includes learning Astrology, Tarot, I Ching, or limited
programs in Native Healing practices (Ahnishinabeg).

Membership is very limited. I usually like to keep the conference
membership to less that 25 persons.

A typical readings conference membership would cost $40 a month,
limited to two calls to the BBS each week. This is in addition to
the  $100 YEARLY FEE for CONTRIBUTING MEMBER status, which is required
for this conference.
