Tarot brings forth the unarticulated wisdom that was always within you.

I use intuitive tools to elicit language for what I am feeling or sensing when I work with you. The pictures on Tarot cards are symbolic representations that tap into the subconscious, much like Rorschach blots, but prettier. I do not use the cards for fortune telling, but I do use the images and the connections they evoke to gain insight into the question.
Methods Tarot readings can be done in many different ways - even by email! Right now, all readings are being done remotely, usually via video or phone, due to the pandemic. My philosophy and approach to Tarot is the same regardless of the medium used, and I abide by the same Code of Ethics across all platforms. I am a Certified Biddy Tarot Reader, so you can be assured of receiving a quality reading by an experienced practitioner. Questions Tarot works best if you have a specific question. The more focused your question and the information you provide to me, the more focused I can be with your answer. I will help you explore and rephrase your question if you need help with that. The Biddy Tarot community also has an excellent blog article that can steer you in the right direction before you pop the question to the cards. Frequency Oftentimes clients will ask how long they should wait before coming back for another reading. I suggest that you allow sufficient time to process what you have learned from our session before you come back. If you aren't sure how long to wait, then allow a full moon-cycle (30 days) to pass before you book another appointment. The reason I ask you to wait and consider if you are really ready for another reading is that I believe that this is how the Tarot is best used. It is a catalyst that generates those "aha" moments that help kick you out of a rut and move you forward in a new, more positive direction. Transformation does not occur during the Tarot reading. It happens when you sit with that new awareness and do the necessary work to integrate it into your life. Flitting from reading to reading trivializes the wisdom offered by the Tarot, and disempowers you by ascribing the power of change to the Tarot. You are the one who will change your life. Tarot Decks I read with a variety of decks. If you would like to choose your deck from my collection, check out the gallery to choose from the art work that most resonates with you. I have many more decks that aren't pictured there, so if you have a favorite deck, please ask. If I have it I am happy to read for you with it. |
Experience
Tarot has been a central spiritual practice and a tool for self-reflection for me for more than 33 years. I have also read for hundreds of clients over the years. I am a Certified Biddy Tarot Reader, so you can be assured of receiving a quality reading by an experienced practitioner.
Video and Phone Tarot Readings
Video Tarot readings can be done live over Zoom, and are live, interactive sessions comparable to an in-person reading. The advantage of Zoom (visit https://zoom.us to learn more about that platform) is that I have a Pro account, and I use a two-camera system, one on the cards, and one on me. Phone readings can accommodate one or more clients (such as for a couples reading). A picture of the Tarot spread will be emailed to you during the reading so you can follow along. Video and phone appointments are paid in advance. After you secure your appointment online you will receive an invoice which you will need to pay via PayPal prior to your appointment. Prices are $60/30 min, or $110/60 min. In-Person Tarot Readings (Currently Limited) I have resumed some limited in-person readings with clients with pandemic precautions to accommodate my personal and family medical circumstances. Some of the in-person options include meeting at a coffee shop, in a private office space, at a wine-tasting, doing readings for parties/gatherings , and ...I hope.... traveling around in my vardo wagon that I plan to build sometime soon. Prices are $70/30 min, or $120/60 min. When I am a featured guest reader at a specific location, 15 minute readings are available for $40, and sometimes offered "free" by the venue host in conjunction with another event, like the wine tastings at 3 of Cups Winery. Email/Online Tarot Readings Email readings are completed within a week. An email reading is great if you aren't in a hurry, and if you like to keep a copy of your reading to refer back to. You'll receive a thorough write-up of your Tarot reading, along with a picture of the cards used in the Tarot spread. Because email readings require a write up, they are based on the number of cards drawn rather than the length of time you spend with me in a reading, and therefore are definitely more expensive than an in-person reading. Email me for more details so we can explore what you need. Video Tarot Parties Having a Tarot reader at your gathering is a unique entertainment offering for your guests. I'm not currently doing in person gatherings, but I have done several readings at a party via video and it works great! Just set up a computer in a private room for your guests to pop in and out of, and you're all set! Email me for more details and for a quote. When I resume in-person readings, I do travel within the Greater Seattle-Tacoma area to do parties. I can travel further, but travel expenses will apply. |
