Is Client the proper term for the person who gets the reading?

The word "client" in my mind seems to imply that money was received for the reading.

I guess I am also getting the term "client" from many if the Tarot books I use as a reference.

Your thoughts?

A client is usually someone that is a paying customer.

Many different terms can be applied to each person..

Person giving the reading Person receiving or requesting the reading

Reader Querent

Sitter Seeker

Consultant Client

Diviner Questioner

Many more too..

What does everyone else use?

I think if we are honest..... all the names are kinda strange, and don't fit that well?

Shall we see if we can come up with a better name for them

Person giving the reading.......forecaster, seer, predictor ?

Person requesting/being given the reading...... Inquirer ?

Any more?
