Testimonials
OMG! If you have never before entertained trying a session of Reiki with Andrea -Marie, I highly recommend it. I had always wanted to experience Reiki and my mother insisted that I dive in and try it. So many small things were distressing my body when we first began treatment, I could not even feel all of them. With the treatments my body is adjusting and healing from past wounds, negative thinking patterns and just plain abuse. I try to eat right and meditate daily, but life sneaks up and gobbles "my" time frequently. The beauty of the Reiki is that you really don't even have to be conscious of the good it is doing in your body. One morning you wake up and discover, wow! That irritating little pain in my knee is gone. You feel suddenly lighter, your brain feels clear and bright. Things that once irritated you don't seem to grip you in emotional turmoil anymore.
Do yourself a favor and try Reiki. Andrea Maire presents a treatment that is gentle, loving and respectful to your body, mind and soul. She truly has a healing gift. Andrea gets five stars from me. *****
Be well, healthy and happy,

Reiki healing from Andrea Marie. She stayed on the phone with me so she could ask me questions or have me focus on a thought or feeling I was having. My legs were vibrating with all the energy she was sending! I felt so grounded and relaxed. One great result I'll share is that I have been able to sleep much better, which I really needed. Thanks!

A tarot reading with Andrea Stark is like a glimpse into one's own mind and heart, with a trusted friend alongside to guide you. Andrea's skill as a reader, in addition to her warmth and compassion, make the journey a safe and fascinating one. Andrea remains open to the feedback of the client, and is able to skillfully guide the process to provide both fruitful and inspiring information. Her communication is clear, and her request for feedback throughout the process ensures that the experience is both helpful and supportive. (I have been a client for about ten years, among other things, she has read about the births each of my three girls!)

I had a wonderful afternoon at Andrea's workshop. She did an amazing job of explaining and personalizing the experience for all the participants in the group. She is not only very intuitive but exhibits such warmth as well as a healing presence. I am looking forward to attending another of her workshops in the future. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone who would like some uncanny insights and truths into their current situations and blocks in life. Kristina, Los Angeles
What a great workshop! I loved it , it was like a combination of a private psychic reading and a nice group feel. Everyone really seemed to benefit. Great chakra meditation, I will do it on my own but when is the follow up!? We need it LOL!
Rani, Brentwood CA
I wanted to tell you what a difference your workshop made for me, it's almost like I gave myself permission to do something about my predicament. It's like I can see the light, a lot brighter and bigger. I feel like I had the opportunity to reconnect with myself and God. The whole weekend I was in bliss.
Usually I'm so busy that half the time I don't know what's going on around me now, I'm looking for signs!!! I'm actually taking the time to observe my surroundings.
Claudia, Los Angeles
The Love It's No Secret workshop led by Andrea Marie really opened my eyes. I was amazed at what she knew was going on in my life and how she was able to help me realize that I am able to manifest what I want. It was a powerful experience.

My Reiki treatment was amazing. Andrea Marie was able to tell me some messages that were coming through for me which helped me open up to the healing energy. I was so shocked at how powerful it was, I do not like to cry but I found myself crying and feeling very good afterwards.
Elisa, Glendale CA
My reading with Andrea Stark was extremely insightful. There are times in your life when you think you have no more capacity to think or learn more, or you question what conclusions you've come to. I turned to the idea of a tarot card reading to gain a possible outside concept that I was incapable of seeing or being honest with myself about. Andrea's reading reflected an enormously accurate echo to my thoughts and worries. She additionally offered to investigate the nature of the obstacle I was facing and a way to navigate through it. All that she relayed to me was clear, consistent and delivered in a compassionate manner.
Amy Los Angeles, CA
I just had my reading from Andrea Stark and I was so thoroughly impressed with her level of depth, clarity & natural talent she expressed in reading my Tarot. I was so happy to find that she could "zero" in on such precise questions that I was pleased to gain insight & assistance on.
I loved that Andrea brought me along into her reading with a lesson on the background position, name, graphic & numerical placement of each individual card which greatly enhanced the meanings & deepened my understanding so elaborately.
Andrea will serve her seekers well with tremendous care, accuracy & a level of authenticity superior to all other Tarot experiences.
I am excited for Andrea as her bright Tarot future expands. I desire to catch up with her at a later date for more self discovery & would certainly recommend her talents to anyone interested in receiving guidance on their path.
Courtenay Chicago, IL
I was very skeptical of having a tarot card reading at first. Andrea gave me a homework assignment designed to help me focus in spiritually on the things that I would like to have addressed in the reading. My mind was set at ease when Andrea addressed two of my concerns/points from her pre-reading. (cards drawn before she even spoke to me)
I can honestly say that the tarot reading was a blessing and it gave me the confirmation that I needed to pursue other creative areas, that had been on my mind, but I had not acted upon them until after the reading. Thank you Andrea!
Shauna Los Angeles, CA
Andrea Starks' tarot readings are, by far, some of the best I have experienced. Her ability to hold space for her clients, and her compassionate nature, make the readings much more authentic and personal. In moments of fear and uncertainty, when readings are usually sought out, Andrea offers guidance and understanding. Her connection to Spirit- or Source, is undeniable. Andrea is definitely a skilled reader, and I highly recommend her.
Amy CMT Reiki Los Angeles/Santa Fe
Dear Andrea,
Thank you so much for the Tarot reading this week. You exceeded my expectations!
I haven’t had a reading in years and so really looked forward to it. I appreciate the clarification and accuracy of your insights. It feels very on target for me at this time.
This is such a changing and dynamic time in my life. Thank you for your guidance!
Terri Portland, OR
My tarot card reading with Andrea Stark on July 11 was my first professional reading. I am not very familiar with the tarot myself, so I needed some guidance. Andrea was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She made suggestions of the types of questions I could ask, because I was fairly unfamiliar with the process. Throughout the reading she thoroughly explained the different meanings of the cards she pulled for me and answered all of my questions. I look forward to going back for my next reading. :-)
Megan Southern California
I have received several Tarot card readings from Andrea in the past. She is the most professional and accurate reader I have ever experienced. She demonstrates clear mastery of not only the history of the Tarot but she is also very up to date on all the current information available on Tarot. I find her to be very empathetic, accurate, open and clear in her readings. She always takes the time to help me step through the meaning of the cards individually to create a conceptual reading and then helps me apply that to my life. Andrea is very passionate about her spirituality, her Tarot work and continuing to learn more and become more involved in the healing arts. I do believe Andrea has a special gift when it comes to this work and I would highly recommend her to any of my friends and collegues .
Stephanie Ohio
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the valuable insight you provided during my tarot reading last week with regard to my questions, reservations and aprehensions about the possibility of a career change for me.
The information you provided was so accurate... it was uncanny! There were certain aspects of my reading which rang true immediately. As for the rest... well you got me through the weekend with a healthy positive mindset and the confidence I needed to stay the course. I have since heard from the company and it looks like they are just as excited about meeting me so everything else that you said seems to be materializing as well.
Thank you again Andrea. My reading was such a positive experience. I would definitely recommend you to friends and I look forward to the opportunity to have you read for me again sometime.
Raven Orange County, CA
Andrea Stark has done Tarot readings for me many times over the past ten years, each time at a key moment in my life when I sought her insight. Each time, she patiently helped me to focus my questions so that the reading would yield clear direction. She shares her process at every step, and explains the meanings behind the arrangements of cards so that I can understand, and ask deeper questions. Her sessions allow me to explore from my own point of view and to make discoveries about the nature of my own spirit. The cards seem to bring us both to a different level of consciousness, and to deeper knowing. Many times, readings that focused on the future were uncannily accurate, and caused me to think that the future is somehow embodied in the present. I can truly say that I have more appreciation and fascination for life's mysteries through Andrea's work.
Claudia Chicago, IL
Andrea Stark did a Tarot card reading for me on June 12, 2008.
I would like to recommend Andrea as a high quality, professional Tarot card reader. The manner in which she poses questions is powerful and clear. For example, "we" asked, "What actions can be taken to create more inflow?" And then, bringing new cards, she gives excellent suggestions for new actions.
Two months later, I am stilll inspired by her reading and I am enacting new creative projects.
Doris Los Angeles, California
I met with Andrea few times and each time I received so much from her reading. She is very present and you feel connected with her on some very deep level. Her reading and intuition was so right all the time. I was going through a lot of changes in my life and wasn't sure where am I going or what's the best to do, but Andrea's reading gave me so much guidance and light. It was the right path to take.
Andrea has a special gift and I am so grateful for all her wisdom.
Jana Southern California
Wow - I totally forgot to write this, but it is good then I can say how much of your reading was right on. I just returned from a week long trip to Texas and before leaving I had a reading from Andrea Stark. She and I are old friends / colleagues but we have not seen or talked to each other in months if not a year or so. Anyway, during the reading Andrea spoke of a trip and how I was going to get to relax. I laughed at her because I have 3 kids and any trip with 3 kids is not relaxing. But I can honestly say that it was nice. Yes it wasn't all bon bons and margaritas by the pool but it was very relaxing and fun. In addition, my husband and I have been talking about moving next year or so and she kept getting that from her reading. She kept saying "it says you are moving but..." After the reading I told her we were thinking about it and she was right on.
I am not a non-believer, I love to have readings done but I also like to see how much right on the readers are. Andrea passed all the tests that I knew the answers to and then after my trip I find out she passed even more tests than I knew about. She is a great asset to the Tarot card community!!
Carol Glendale, CA
Andrea,
I wanted to express my appreciation for the amazing experience during my recent tarot reading. You've provided me with so much valuable insight in response to recent questions and concerns regarding both my personal and professional life. The celtic-cross reading was thorough and thought-provoking to say the least. In addition to confirming some of the feelings I have had regarding this particular set of circumstances, your interpretation of the cards brought a fresh viewpoint that would have otherwise never occured to me. As a result I feel I am far better equipped to deal with the challenges ahead, especially with regard to my career change and for this I am so grateful.
I was more than pleased and safisfied with this experience and I hope that I will have the pleasure of another tarot reading from you in the very near future.
Robin Orange County, CA
I had a great and healthy experience with my reading. Andrea is receptive and explores with you various possibilities as they presents themselves on the cards. I was pleased with her message delivery as it was very informative, intuitive, and constructive.
Patricia Glendale, CA
Thanks for the reading, Andrea. It’s always good to get questions formally launched into the universe so that the appropriate path can be forged. I appreciated your insight and focus as you looked into the questions that puzzle me day and night. Someday it will all be clear to me and then I’ll have a whole new set of questions for you!
Phil Rockville, MD
I had a 30 minute tarot reading on the phone from Andrea Stark. It was my first experience with anything like this though I was a familiar with the traditional concept of tarot cards. I wasn’t sure what to expect but Andrea was very patient with me and explained everything step by step. The result was quite interesting and what she revealed through the reading was quite astonishing in its accuracy. I plan on reflecting about what we discussed and try to put into practice some life changes that will be beneficial to me. I would recommend her services to others.
Thanks Andrea!
Jan Monrovia, CA
Dear Andrea,
I want to thank you for your time & the Tarot reading this morning! As mentioned, I had feeling of peace come over me and, I want to let you know that I feel I’ve been given a new insight or direction thru the reading as well. I did make notes and I plan to refer to them as I form plans for our future move. Your words about looking for a balance and happiness in all areas are well taken. Body, mind and spirit living in harmony with our new home.
Again thank you & I wish you all the best…and harmony in your life too!
Ginny Northern CA
I had 3 topics discussed during the tarot card reading with Andrea Stark
During the hour reading I found some insightful responses introduced
regarding the discussion of certain items that I had brought up. Not all appears as black and white as one might imagine, and so I understand further exploration on my part to cipher out suggestions is warranted.
Andrea certainly has a gift of being introspective and intuitive. I found the reading to be very beneficial.
Arleen Lomita, CA
Hi Andrea. Thank you again for last night’s reading. There were definitely some direct correlations to what’s happening in my life right now, and how I’m feeling about things. The cards telling of my “Journey” (LA to Chicago) was obviously poignant. I’ll start trying to pay attention to “messages” (The Moon card), and learn better to connect with myself. So interesting that the “eat, drink, be merry / #9 cups” card came up twice, in correlation to my questions about the relationship I recently came out of. It just reaffirms that something wasn’t exactly right with that relationship (no depth), I will work on going out more, and trying to take some things off my plate at work. Thank you so much. I look forward to speaking with you again soon.
Gweneth Chicago, IL
Andrea Stark did a reading for me e and it was insightful and done with compassion and understanding. She used more than the tarot to connect with information and was very politic in giving the information out.
Lea Los Angeles, CA
Andrea Stark read tarot for me in August of 2008. The hour reading was full of confirmations regarding my current situation. Her ability to be in touch with the positive forces in my life was very affirming and helpful. Her ability to see the problems I was facing and to construct questions to help me understand good ways to navigate those problems was nothing but wonderful. I was more clear about many issues and felt more empowered after the reading. She seemed to know most of what was going on with me and it felt good to have someone understand as well as be proactive and compassionate in defining my role in every situation.
Elizabeth Chicago, IL
Andrea Stark is a gifted and insightful tarot reader who goes beyond the use of tarot to help her clients understand situations both internal and external. I have received many readings from her and I appreciate her talent and connection to spirit. I think of her as a powerful compassionate worker of light. Personally I find her lifestyle inspiring and I think of her as a role model not only in how she works with clients but how she brings her passionate connection to the divine into her life choices. I am blessed to know her and will continue my connection with her throughout my life.
A. M. Southern California
I have received several readings from Andrea over the past ten years. She brings not only her psychic ability to each reading but also a very strong ability to understand how to break down any question to the core. I find it helpful too that she gives you a 'homework" assignment that helps to focus you before the reading, and that she pulls cards before the reading, to help focus even more. She is very thorough and each reading is done with care and depth.
