Dressing up

I have learnt that the appearance of an astrologer is essential in attracting customers. At first, I was not getting as many customers as i liked. Some people even looked at me with disdain. That is when i learnt it was due to my appearance.


Firstly, as an astrologer, I have to make myself look dark and mysterious. That way will be easier for people to believe that I really have the power and knowledge of the stars. When i told this to my wife, she came out with many ideas. She started out by making me smear sacred ash on my forehead. Also, she gave me a big dark black cloak to wear. Lastly, she gave me a saffron coloured cloth, which i tied on my head as a turban. This combination of colours make me literally glow, and makes me look magical.

Also, my wife bought me some equipment like shells so that I look more professional. When customers come, I can throw these shells, and pretend to understand something from it. These equipment make me look professional, and up to this day, almost everyone who sees me believes that i really am an astrologer.
