While looking at the qualifications for each level, I was surprised that so much lay heavily on writing reviews or teaching tarot to others. I would not consider that being a Grandmaster of Tarot, or at least it does not qualify being an excellent reader. Experience in the field, knowing tarot history, knowing the meanings, both right and reversed, and being able to read either for yourself or for others (or both) in a professional manner is what makes a good reader, so slapping on a title just doesn't do it for me. This seems to be more about clout and flattery in the field of writing or teaching tarot, rather than necessarily doing readings and being pretty darn good at it. I wonder how well a so called Grandmaster would be at a reading if one handed him a deck he/she never used, with no book or LWB and a brand new spread. Could they interpret the cards using both traditional symoblism and intuition and do an accurate reading?
