S01 Ep013 - To Reverse or Not to Reverse? In Tarot, THAT is the question.

Join me in this episode where I share the different ways to read reversals, and why it does NOT include memorizing 78 additional card meanings!

S01 Ep012 - Tricky cards come up in our tarot readings time and again. This episode is going to cover 3 specific tricky card situations you will find yourself dealing with, and help you navigate each of them with ease.

And ANY of those energies could be the right one in a given situation, regardless of how we perceive it. So let go of the idea that a card is good or bad, and join me to learn how to navigate some of the trickier scenarios that will pop up in your readings!

S01 Ep005 - Typically, Court Cards are some of the most difficult cards for many readers to understand and interpret. Why? Because there are so many and they can be very similar. We have 16 cards that fall into a 4x4 matrix, where every card is similarly related to 3 other cards in one way (by Suit), and then to 3 other cards in another way (by Rank). All of a sudden, your head starts to spin a little and everything starts to look the same. Join me in this episode where I break down the many meanings for each of the ranks. Learn the exact differences between the Pages and Knights or the Knights vs. the Kings, so you can identify what they are  there to tell you when one (or more!) shows up in your readings!
