Tarot
If you’re here you’re likely familiar with tarot, and you may have your own ideas about what it is as a practice—but what you want to know is who I am as a reader.
Stylistically, I would call myself a relational tarot reader. My readings are held in conversation, I invite questions as we chat and ask expanding ones in kind. By session’s end, I hope that our dialogue expands your understanding of your query or situation to put you in deeper connection with your own inner knowing.
In my sessions, I specialize in the liminal, discomfort, and transitions. For those of you who speak astrology, I’m a night chart person with both my luminaries out of sect. My benefics are in detriment with my moon in fall. Saturn is domicile in the house of its joy and Mars sits on my ascendant degree. Translation: I understand chaos, difficulty, being “differently resourced,” feeling othered, or disappointed by systems and people. Growing through these struggles is what has allowed me the capacity to hold space and curiosity for people in various seasons of their lives. That said, (and in that same vein) I am a big fan of levity, humor, and play. I welcome curiosity in all forms.
What I’m NOT
a fortune teller
Predictive tarot just isn’t my thing. I’m here to help you build and learn about your inner world as it exists currently. Understanding and acting in your present situation is what ultimately influences your future.
kabbalist
Éliphas Lévi (born Alphonse Louis Constant)really popularized the entanglement of Kabbalah/Qabalah and tarot. As a person not of the Jewish diaspora, and out of respect for the closed nature of Judaism, this is not a cornerstone of my practice. Tarot, an as archetypal system, relates to all things. There are many paths and structures to inform this practice.
“for” everyone
I’m not for everyone, and chances are neither are you. Truly though, who is? What matters is if I am for you. It’s important to have a good rapport with your service providers in vulnerable spaces. I believed this as a LMT and I believe this as a reader.
What I AM
a rosetta stone
Tarot is a system of images and archetypes, and thus a medium for stories. Over time I have formed a language for interpreting it. Think of me as a “reader” very literally in this sense.
a mirror
I reflect things back to you. We can examine things together or you can take things and absorb them in your own time.
someone to hold space for you.
I’m not here to judge or yuck anyone’s yum. My hope is to build an open container that allows for honest conversations. I may be doing a lot of speaking and interpreting but I am also plenty happy to pause and listen while you navigate your experience.
current offerings
*please know that I do strive for accessibility, and love to barter, so if you’re in a bind financially and/or have a useful skill but would like to partake in a service—don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d be happy to work things out with you.
