No, because I don’t believe that your future is fixed. More importantly, I don’t want to take your power away. I’d rather use the cards to help you create your own future. The best way to do that is to see what patterns you are in right now; what you are learning at the moment. A reading grounds us into cycles and seasons, reminding us that our forward path is rarely linear, and that positive change always requires internal work.

It's totally understandable to have a bit of trepidation but getting a reading is actually fun if introspection is your kinda thing. Tarot reflects the full life experience—anything that we could be in the process of learning. A “bad” card can provide affirmation for difficult times, identify patterns of struggle, and can feel empathetic. It's like the cards saying, “Seems like you are having a hard time, let’s understand what’s going on here.” Sometimes “good” cards come up and they can be challenging to accept. When you have been on the struggle bus for a while, it's hard to know when to stop and enjoy a sweet rest stop. All the cards are invitations for subjective exploration and opportunities for growth beyond the “good” or “bad.” 
 

At 15 years old I got my first tarot deck from my hippie mom. I read cards in my college dorm room, on the shag carpet in my first apartment, and at my first professional gig: an event my friend DJ’ed where my descriptions of the cards could barely be heard over the loud music! I regularly gathered girlfriends around the cards; we’d spill our secrets, interpret the readings, and support each other through major life transitions. It was bit like Sex and the City but with less couture and more quinoa. 
Over two decades of teaching yoga, I regularly worked out the muscles of my intuition. Reading tarot is an extension of that work–it helps us to check in, examine our conditioning, and trust ourselves. As I began professional tarot reading, I’ve deepened my studies with Lindsey Mack of Wild Soul Tarot.  Along my nontraditional path, tarot has been a trusty compass that I’m excited to share.
