Here is the normal process (step-by-step) from your first contact to completion of your DELUXE horoscope order. Since all work is done by Elbert Wade personally--and not a computer chart-reading program, it does require a bit of time. (Note: Except for the telephone conference, all contacts both ways are by email, regular mail and Priority mail.)
[See astrologer Elbert Wade's sample client testimonials by clicking here. Read Elbert's brief bio here.]
- Your secure birth data and confidential contact information is received promptly, as well as a PayPal confirmation of payment.
- You'll receive a 'thank-you' email acknowledging receipt of order and payment.
- Within 24 hours you will receive a SAMPLE copy of your natal horoscope 'wheel' (natal chart) to check for accuracy of your birth data. Look for any errors (mine or yours). Please email-reply promptly either to confirm and/or to point out any error(s) you might find. (The 9KB gif image does not contain your contact information; it is considered safe to email.)
- When necessary paper work is done (normally 3 to 5 days), you'll get an email stating that the Pre-Appointment Packet (which must be in your hands before an appointment can be set) has been mailed in a 9X12-inch tan envelope. It will contain computer print-outs of your natal, progressed and natal-progressed composite chart 'wheels,' a 2-page explanation of what the horoscope parts, symbols, etc. mean -- and most importantly your hand-drawn horoscope so you can follow along during the telephone appointment.
- You are asked to email-notify when these pages arrive. AND please suggest the best days/times -- afternoons, evenings, weekends (MY TIME) -- for your telephone conference appointment within the next few days. (In determining your appointment-time suggestions, please keep in mind that I am in the US Central Time Zone -- minus 6 hours (CST) from GMT.) For help with this issue (if necessary), please see: Live Current Time (12/24 hour clocks) at Elbert's Location.
- A mutually-convenient time will be worked out and confirmed by email.
- Hopefully (but not guaranteed), an email reminder of your appointment time will be sent the day before.
- At the agreed-to time Elbert will call the telephone number you supply and conduct your consultation in real-time. [NOTE: Only my side of the telephone consultation is recorded. Your comments/questions remain totally private and confidential.]
- IMPORTANT: Speaker phones typically are not satisfactory; neither are cell phones (unless there is no other choice) since they almost always drop-out after an hour or so and/or lose power. [A corded -- not cordless -- telephone is recommended.] [Did you know that neither cell nor cordless phones are secure?]
- Suggestion: Prepare to make yourself comfortable. The conference takes time but most clients say the time passes quite pleasantly -- and, therefore, seemingly fast. A telephone headset -- if available -- would be ideal to increase your comfort.
- As soon as possible after the telephone conference reading (allow for weekends), your tape(s) or CD(s) will be sent by Priority mail. An email notification will be sent you when tape(s)/CD(s) are in the mail.
- Total time for the process typically is 10 to 14 days. Your "mileage" could vary :) since, alas, we are somewhat at the mercy of the postal service :(. New April 2008: You may now be able to speed up scheduling of your natal horoscope consultation by several days! Click here for explanation.
