Update: All Signs Point To Yes
Author: Cory Matteson and Barbara Nordby Source: Jackson Hole Star Tribune (WY)
Title: ALL SIGNS POINT TO YES
Nella Forest violates Casper city code when she charges $6 for 20 minutes of tarot card reading, and said she's "overjoyed" this practice of her Wiccan faith could become legal.
City council members agreed Thursday to consider repealing a 1929 ordinance that forbids charging for fortunetelling.
The 1963 city council added phrenology -- the study of what a person's skull shape reveals about his character -- to the long list of banned activities, but today's council seemed amused that the law is still on the books. Councilman Maury Daubin suggested the Star-Tribune violates the law by charging 50 cents for a newspaper that offers horoscopes.

You just could not charge for it. I think it is a shame some of us will prostitute our beliefs and powers out for money. Isn't it enough to just help another living organism? I have met Pagans that will nickel and dime you until the charges are over 80 dollars. Granted that is an extreme case, but we claim to be a benevolent, helpful religion, WHY DON'T WE START ACTING THAT WAY?!!!!
