Readings

Before a reading, it’s helpful for a Seeker to connect with their body and focus on an intention; the clearer an intention, the better understood a reading will become. While I do work with spirits & guides and call out to creators and energies, this understanding is not needed to gain value or insight from a reading.

A more utilitarian way to view a Tarot reading is to think of it like walking into an art gallery with a trusted guide. Together we'll build narrative around the works of art that reveal themselves. Remember: your gut feelings about the cards are just as important as mine.

Readings begin with a cleansing of the deck with incense, and a connection between Reader and Seeker. We'll call our guides & creators together to co-create the experience with us. After that, cards are shuffled, pulled and placed into a spread that will best illuminate your intention.

You are always in control. If a subject or revelation feels too hot to handle, we can always make space for integration or somatics, and move to a different part of the spread.*

*Just like with massage or traditional therapy, after-care is important following a Tarot reading. Subjects may be breached that feel private, and you may leave a reading feeling vulnerable. It's not unusual for a Seeker to cry or experience big emotions during readings.

Take care of yourself after a reading like you would a loved-one or child. A small gift to yourself is a nice gesture, and resonates with the teachings of The Empress. Drink water or tea, go on a walk, give yourself a hug, and journal or speak aloud the feelings you are having.

Expression is so important! It's your reading, so amplify, celebrate and integrate it how you'd like.
