Why get a reading?
If you're at a crossroads
When you don’t know which way to go, a reading helps bring forward what may be obscured in your own knowing.
If you keep repeating the same patterns
Patterns repeat because their root cause hasn't been seen clearly enough to change. A reading can highlight the pattern and offer insight into where it may originate.
If you need clarity on a decision
You probably already know. A reading reflects what you're sensing and explores where your current path could lead.
If you’re seeking deeper answers
You've outgrown surface-level readings. These work at the level of the deeper questions — about consciousness, pattern, and what happens beneath ordinary life.
How does tarot work?
Tarot is a mirror — drawing on long-standing symbolic systems that explore recurring patterns in human life.
The structure
The 78 cards represent distinct archetypal patterns — situations, dynamics, and perspectives that tend to repeat across different lives and contexts.
Together, they form a symbolic framework for understanding experience, influenced by traditions including Qabalah, astrology, and alchemy.
How a reading works
When cards are drawn for your situation, they reflect patterns that may be present in your life — often bringing forward perspectives that are difficult to see from within your own experience.
This is why a reading can feel immediately recognisable or meaningful:
The patterns are widely shared
The cards highlight which ones may be active
How they relate to each other
The directions they could be pointing toward
Beyond the rational
Some people experience readings as engaging a deeper level of intuition — a way of perceiving patterns that isn’t always accessible through linear thinking alone.
What a reading is — and isn’t
A reading doesn’t tell you what to do, and it isn’t a fixed statement about the future.
It offers a way of seeing your situation more clearly. What you do with that clarity is entirely yours.
Rather than predicting outcomes, tarot works by making patterns visible — and once a pattern is seen clearly, your relationship to it can change.
My training and process
Foundation
Grounded in a year of dedicated study with Tarot Mysticism Academy under Joe Monteleone — one of the most insightful esoteric tarot educators working today.
Three planes of reading
Every reading operates simultaneously across:
The mechanical plane — practical events and circumstances
The energetic plane — the dynamics and forces shaping your situation
The mystical plane — the deeper consciousness dimensions underlying both
The unifying framework
The thread running through everything is the perennial philosophy — the recognition that Hermetic Qabalah, alchemy, astrology, mythology, numerology, Tantra, the Vedas, and the Tetractys etc. are not separate systems but different expressions of the same universal wisdom. They don't contradict each other. They illuminate each other.
A living practice
Structured knowledge and developing intuition work together in every reading. Tarot is a lifelong study and I continue to learn.
There are infinite possible paths ahead of you. A reading is a snapshot of your current trajectory — not a fixed fate.
Knowledge changes trajectory. That is the point.

The decks
A deeply symbolic deck developed by Aleister Crowley and painted by Lady Frieda Harris.
I use it for readings that benefit from a more layered, analytical approach.
Thoth
Created by A. E. Waite and illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith, this is the foundation of most modern tarot.
Its imagery is direct and accessible, making it well suited to clear, grounded readings.
Rider-Waite-Smith
Inspired by earth-based spiritual traditions, this deck brings in themes of nature, cycles, and seasonal change.
It often resonates with people drawn to a nature-connected perspective.
Druidcraft
An oracle deck created by Josephine McCarthy.
I’m currently integrating it into my practice. It will be offered as an additional layer for clients who want to explore different symbolic perspectives alongside tarot.
