For me, 2024 is a Wheel of Fortune year. 2023 was a Hermit year for me, and as I’m a true introvert, that felt just fine. But now, I’m gearing up for a wild ride as I spin to the fast-paced Wheel of Fortune year. As a Hermit, I reflected, gained insight, and made plans […]

When your Tarot Soul Card comes up in a Reading
I usually start my day with my journal and my Tarot cards. I have a deck that I use just for me. Before I pull a card, I write. If something is worrying or bothering me, I pour it out so that I don’t have the pressure of carrying it all day. If something has […]
Time to Blossom: A Tarot Spread for the Month of May
May is a hopeful month, bursting with new life, green leaves, and miraculous blossoms that seem to appear from nowhere. At this time of year, you feel the promise of life, of growth, of your own ability to reinvent yourself and to stretch towards new possibilities and desires. It’s a wonderful time to plant the […]
Tarot is both Mystical and Practical
I think magic is all around us. I think the world is woven together with magic. In our day to day lives, we catch tantalizing glimpses of something more, something other, something winks at us from beneath the facade of the mundane. That’s why we love stories and fairy tales with the secret hero, the […]
In Defense of the Tarot Card-of-the-Day
Over the last few months, I’ve often felt like this. (This is the Four of Pentacles by the way.) I want to hold on to everything that is precious to me. I want to protect everyone I love, I want to make sure that finances are relatively secure, I want to make sure that everyone […]
Inspire Yourself with Tarot
I am seeing a shift in the reasons why people are booking Tarot readings with me. When the pandemic first hit, people were booking readings for very practical topics. Many were navigating the challenges and opportunities of “regular” life, looking for fulfilling work, considering purchasing a home, hoping to find a partner or improve a […]
Being Present While Looking to the Future During The Great Pause (with Tarot)
The world officially went topsy turvy in my mind when my home province of Ontario, Canada, declared a state of emergency in mid-March. This was the right decision, and we knew it was coming, but it conveyed the gravity of the situation in a concrete way that could not be ignored. In the midst of […]
Two Tarot Spreads for back to school jitters and lifelong learners
September for me will always mean the end of summer and time to go back to school. Even though it is still beautiful and summery outside right now, I have already shifted into a place of stationery heaven, dreaming about acquiring all kinds of exciting paper products and writing implements. What can be more exciting […]
Monday Motivation: Ten of Swords
This morning I am exhausted. It’s all good, I am exhausted from a wonderful and busy weekend. I read and taught Tarot at the Elora Tarot and Divination Festival on both Saturday and Sunday, in between driving back to Toronto to perform a wedding on Saturday night. I pulled this card and thought, yes, this is […]
Readers Studio 2018: Signs, The Divine, and New York Pizza
This was my fourth time attending Readers Studio. I’d like to write something witty and funny about my time there, but I’m still assimilating all I experienced, and what I experienced was profound. For an introvert and overly sensitive person like myself, a conference can be both beautiful and terrible. The people at Readers Studio […]
