“How do tarot readings work?“ is thee most asked question I get, so lemme walk you through a typical reading 💫

We start by chatting for a bit, could be a couple min or it could be a half hour. I always say there’s no wrong way to go about a reading. I’ll explain that you can go into it just wanting general clarity, or being curious about certain areas of life you want clarity in (career, family, love life, friendships, etc.), or you can come with more specific questions. This helps people (mainly 1st timers) feel more at ease by understanding how it’ll play out.

People also ask what specific Q’s they can ask, the most common of the specific natured q’s people come into a reading with is “me & my partner have been together 2 years and I wanna know about what’s ahead for us or if we should stay together” or “I’ve been talking to this person for months and I’m not sure what to do about the situation because sometimes I think they’re really into me & other times I’m not so sure”

After a question/s is decided whether it’s “I want general clarity/ I want clarity in my career” I start shuffling the cards. When I draw the cards I explain what each position of a specific card means. In a mini reading there are 3 positions the cards will be in: past | present | future, mind | body | spirit (& for those into astro I do moon | mercury | mars). Then I dive into what each card means in the context of the position it’s in (i.e. having the 7 of swords in the position of the past means you were in a situation where someone was being deceitful or sneaky to you, or you to them) I’ll spend anywhere from 1-5 min explaining each card, but the more you engage to add context about a card/situation means we could spend anywhere from 2-10 min talking about a card and what it means for you. You can also be silent & just listen until the end of a reading too, it’s entirely up to what you’re comfy with. However often times people do get a deeper understanding of a reading when there’s more of an open dialogue about the cards and how they connect to your reality.

Hope this helps paint a picture of what you get when you book with me ☺️ DM’s always open for questions & inquiries! ✨
