My work is a reflection of my own journey-one that's deeply personal and endlessly evolving. I live it. Every ritual I explore in my writing has been a part of my own path, guiding me through the twists and turns of life. Tarot, for me, is more than just a deck of cards. It's a conversation with the universe, a way to tap into the energies that flow through all of us. When I write about tarot, I'm sharing not just the meanings of the cards, but how they've spoken to me, how they've illuminated my path when I've felt lost, and how they've offered clarity when the world seemed chaotic. I want my readers to feel that same connection, to see tarot not just as a tool, but as a trusted companion on their journey. It's the hidden layers of reality that fascinate me-the ways we can connect with the unseen, the rituals that bring us closer to our true selves, and the ancient wisdom that still has so much to teach us in our modern lives. My writing is a blend of research and personal experience, where I share not just what I've learned from books, but what I've discovered through practice and intuition. I write for those who, like me, are seekers. For those who feel that there's more to life than what meets the eye, who are drawn to the mysteries and want to explore them with an open heart and mind. My goal is to make these practices accessible and meaningful.
