Is tarot accurate? How I see reading the cards

Describing your present and predicting the future are two different things. What I care about is whether a reading is clear and helps you think a little further.

Putting your feelings into words doesn't mean knowing all the answers

Sometimes a reading makes you think, "Yes, that's exactly it." That feeling matters, but it's worth asking more: which part fits? Is there anything that doesn't? Don't treat every prediction that follows as unquestionable truth just because the reader got one thing right.

The cards give the conversation a concrete starting point

Take the Five of Cups. Some people first notice the spilled cups; others see the two cups still standing behind the figure. We can talk from whatever you noticed, but I won't claim that this means I've seen into your heart.

A spread also helps separate things: the present situation, the difficulties, the possible ways forward. Problems that were all tangled together are easier to understand when we take them one at a time.

I tell you the reasons behind my reading

I won't just tell you "good" or "bad". I'll explain which cards, in which positions, led me to that view. You can add what's been happening, or point out what doesn't fit.

There's no need to fear drawing any particular card

Death, The Tower and The Devil each have their own meanings, and you can't conclude something terrible will happen from the name alone. I don't sell remedies, and I won't ask you to keep coming back to ask the same question. Medical, legal, financial and mental health questions still need the relevant professionals.

Online or in person: how to choose?

Choose whichever is convenient and lets you talk at ease. In person, you can look at the cards together face to face; online, you can video call from somewhere familiar.
