If it's strangers - usually give them an e-mail addy and ask them to get back to me on how things worked out. About 14 out of 15 do. I keep records, and at least jot down cards/date/interp for most readings - I've occasionally not had a chance but usually I can manage that much. And strangers often turn into clients.
There are a good number of predictive readers out there who actually know what they're doing, some of them aeclectic members, some not. But since the bias at this forum, and in the Anglo-world generally, is to psychological reading, you don't hear much about predictive here except in a few of the oracle and Marseille threads as a rule. Sometimes you'll see things in the 'Your Readings' section, though - it's not that weird. Cards were used predictively for a long time before the neo-Jungians decided to psychologise tarot, and I daresay nobody local would come to a reader without a question - that's just the culture here - it's mostly not Anglo.
Which is not to say tarot can't be used psychologically. I'm sure it can, though not by me. I've used it magically, and that's pretty close to psychology in some cases, but I'm not a psychological reader as a rule - sometimes it comes into readings, but I don't take it to the level of professional counselling, I'm not qualified to do so, nor do I wish to be a psychologist.
