ppl say your readings are more like therapy.

    True fact. Im more interested in using tarot to get at root issues in people's lives over fortune telling or a game of 20 questions with a psychic. I still do that work in session, but the purpose of it is to get at root issues / questions / concerns in people's lives and to bring them into a sense of their personal power.


    Tarot is an incredible anchor to hold down and reflect the energy of the seeker while doing this kind of deep work. Tarot is much, much more than a spiritual game.

    you're gay. do you do queer tarot? how does being gay relate to tarot?


      ree

      In a lot of ways it doesn't. I'm pansexual, that means I'm attracted to everyone. It doesn't mean anything really in relationship with tarot. People like to think of queer people as magical - which is kind of cool but also kind of patronizing depending on how you say it. Like it is special to be queer, it's not average, but also it doesn't make me "more magical" than the next person. Just like being hard of hearing doesn't make me "more in tune" with the other worlds as a default. It does make me more unique in some ways - it's not average - but I don't like being fetishized for it either.


      That being said, I am queer and about a third to half of the people who come in to see me are on a queer spectrum too. Not because they know me outside of my practice, or even that they know I am queer beforehand, but because they are drawn to me. You tend to find readers that you can relate to on some level. It's just what happens.
