Have you ever had a tarot card follow you around? It starts to get spooky. Especially when it shows up in 80% of your readings like it did for me. And that was my Tower-card-stalker, which started appearing in early 2022 and didn’t quit until May of 2023. It wasn’t just in my readings–it was […]
The strangest tarot reading I’ve ever done was many years ago at an event I was working at in downtown Chicago. It was one of those casual walk-up situations where a venue paid me to provide readings to their customers. A young couple sat down, and the gentleman told me he wanted a reading because […]
Surprise! Like this image, interpreting a tarot card is like trying to unlock a riddle. Or a Rubik’s cube. You twist the card over in your brain and you look at it from every angle. Taking in all its sides, you start to see patterns emerging and unlock the puzzle by seeing how everything […]
The Hanged Man tarot card is the poster child for tarot reversals. This card reminds us that sometimes yielding action is the best action, which is, of course, completely terrifying.

Recently I got to thinking about tarot and trauma. We all know that tarot is a great wellness tool. It shouldn’t replace therapy, but working with tarot can be a powerful visual aid to healing. We talk a lot about the tarot as a spiritual tool, but I rarely hear people talk about tarot and […]
What a fallacy control is. I was raised to believe that if you worked hard and were a good person, life would reward you. It was also instilled in me that you had the power to change your life and control your path. While I do believe we have free will and choice, the reality […]
I was recently reminded that the art of reading the cards (and all psychic work, really) is not just about the ability to know and see other people’s reality.

Look for the clues. There are always signs that tell us about our lives. Yes, intuition is involved, but so is logic.
