do I need to attend a school to become a spiritual healer and massage or can I

[Angie]

just study from books? I have always been into spiritual and the occult and hope to someday own my own business. I have been looking all over the internet for help on this but I can't find anything. I also would love to learn to read tarot cards and read palms and I am also wondering to do this would I need to get a license or can I just start this business. please someone help.

You NEED a license to practice massage. It's illegal not to (aka they will assume it's prostitution). To get a license you have to attend a massage therapy school.

You need to check into the laws in your own state. Some places will let you do readings, etc. but most places if you planning on doing hands on healing you need to be either a Licensed Therapist or an Ordained Minister.
Try http://www.witchvox.com to see if there are places in your area that have clergy training classes or even just classes in Tarot, etc. Some internet sites give you 'ordination' but internet ordinations are coming under much more stringent scrutiny lately and not all states will allow you just an internet ordination to be legal.

No, you just need a good lawyer when they prosecute you for fraud.

I want to convince you that spiritual healing is nonsense, but I don't think I could say anything that would change your mind.

Please, just read up on the subject first. Pay close attention to what the critics have to say.
