What Is Tarot?

"When you look out you're dreaming,
when you look inside you awaken." -Carl Jung

Below are some answers to some of the most asked questions that I have recieved over the years:

What is Tarot

Tarot is a tool that may assist us when we are at a crossroad in our life.

As far back as the Egyptians, the Tarot was know as 'The Royal Road of Life'. This refers to important milestones that mark special or significant events along our life's journey.

How does Tarot work?

Tarot taps into our unconscious and brings issues to the surface in order to make us conscious of them. We then have the opportunity to change things, rectify the situation, make things better, turn our life around and achieve our goals more efectively.

We can easily associate with Tarot because of the pictures. Every item in the Tarot card is an archetypal symbol, this means that it has a standard or basic specific energy eg: the mother is the nurturer and the father is the authority figure. Because we dream in pictures, these symbolic messaages are what connect us more easily with the Tarot.

When is it a good time for Tarot?

Anytime is a good time for Tarot!

You may choose to read either one card per day or seek guidance from a weekly spread, It's up to you and how much committment and energy you put into it. People seem to consult the tarot mostly around their birthday or around the New Year to see what energies lay ahead for the Year ahead. I have been invited to many a Hens Night to do readings for the bride to be and her guests. it is also trendy these days to have a Tarot reader at a social event or corporate work function, ie: end of financial year parties, Xmas parties, school orientation or health days through to a launch of a new centre.

My main readings however are for people who are experiencing a time of confusion, or feel they are at a crossroads in their life. People usually have a plan A or a Plan B and having a Tarot reading during this time may assist you in confirming the best path to take. In fact, clarification may come immedately through the symbolic images.

Want a Bit More?

I suppose tarot works the best for those that are questioning or looking for a deeper meaning in life. When both parties have some understanding of tarot, it allows us to tap into many more levels. the deeper you go the more you will see,and it always surprises me how much more there is still to explore.

The best part of tarot is how it gives us the opportunity to open up to Spirit. When we have Spirit in our lives we feel fulfilled. There is no void within and we feel whole and complete. However our ego will fight tooth and nail to make us avoid Spirit at every turn. It will make up excuses so it survives and remains in charge. Our ego does not want you to wake up to your Spiritual side.

I find when someone is in need of a Tarot reading, or interested in joining one of my tarot in Action Programs, I see a person who is looking for something more in life. They are ready to connect with Spirit and at some level they know it. I often feel that I'm the lucky one because following a Tarot reading or after completing my program, I see their eyes opening up. i see the Spirit awaken and then the magic really starts to happen.
