Hi folx, I'm Fox Woods; a queer tarot reader and budding witch living on Tongva land in the Los Angeles area.

I’ve been studying Tarot since 2020, after being introduced to it on my 39th birthday by reader Erisa Byrd. I knew instinctually the path of Tarot was for me, and I've loved watching my practice braid together many spiritual & creative paths I've had the pleasure of traveling: musician, artist, poet, & therapy nerd.

My practice is trauma-informed and marries the world of traditional Tarot with the ideas of various therapeutic modalities*. Lenses include IFS, AEDP, Expressive Arts & witchcraft and my practice is in a constant evolution.

Curiosity, honesty, gentleness & care are at the foundation of my practice.

*I am not a licensed therapist.

Hello

The Empress

I access Tarot through The Empress: a goddess-like ruler from the Major Arcana who brings the message of self-awareness, abundance, and pleasure through the divine feminine. She asks us to play, accept gifts, & spend time in the beauty of nature and the physical world of the senses.

Each reading I begin with an offering of abundance: fresh-cut flowers and fruit, sweet smelling incense and candles, substantial pieces of crystal placed around with joyful aplomb. Honeyed-teas, bells, sweets and everything extra surround my Tarot altar.

The Empress loves to be celebrated, and what she receives, she gives back threefold.
