About: I became interested in reading Tarot when I was 15 and my friend had a set of cards. I played, explored, practiced and began to read for friends and family. I began reading professionally in the late 80's. I have always been intuitive and fascinated by the unknown. I am a Libra-Scorpio girl with Neptune conjunct my sun so I think that accounts for me always studying the mysteries of life. I feel my particular gift seems to be confirming what a client might already think or suspect. I specialize in people. I have helped solve a murder, predicted many events and love working with Tarot and Angel cards. For me Tarot is another alternative to get into oneself, and get closer to my Higher Power. I am an avid reader of popular novels, love interior design, have two grown sons and 2 adorable grandchildren and a husband that makes me laugh. One of my favorite things is to have everyone together and listen to my sons talk in "script" and try to figure out what movie they are in. One does news and traffic on the radio, the other is going to school for film.
I am by trade a professional addictions counselor and am currently deciding what state I want to live in. One of my dreams is to see England as well as Ireland. I have been lucky to see parts of the world; Paris with my mother, Tokyo, Bali, Sing-a-pore, and Indonesia. If it didn't have such harsh winters, I'd be living in Maine. My background is a combination of gypsies and royalty along with a few bootleg makers. I look forward to being in my own home again and re-connecting with my clients as well as meeting new friends on Psychic Source.See Authors Posts (2)
Tarot has been around for centuries and is said to have originated in Egypt, with the art and symbols in the cards representing different meanings. It has been studied by seekers who are looking to expand their consciousness and intuition, the curious, and all types of people.
Tarot can help fine-tune ones intuition, give you confirmation and confidence in your interpretation and awaken other senses. It can be used by itself or with other mediums, meditations, or in your own personalized rituals. It’s a good way of communicating with your higher self or spiritual being.
Tarot is useful for guidance and may confirm what you already thought or give you a whole new perspective on the situation. The more one works with Tarot, the more one can learn, feel and see in a particular card. For me, different meanings come into play depending upon who I am reading for.
A little knowledge about Tarot- there are 21 major arcana and four suits having 0ne(the beginning) to Ten(completion) as well as King, Queen, Knight, and Cups for a total of 78 cards. Wands are energy, movement, spring; Cups are emotion, intuition, summer, swords, cutting through issues, logic, action, fall, and pentacles which represent earth, material matters, and stability.
Tarot is a wonderful tool for self-exploration and one should not hesitate to pick up whatever deck is beckoning you. It’s fascinating to learn about this ancient art.

hi cheryl – i like your take on the suits… to add to that i use the wands as work, business related / the cups as love and give and take related / the swords as addiction, pain and health related / the pentacles as good fortune and money related.
i get 22 major cards… 22 being the number of mastery. and when using certain spreads i use only the major cards.
my favorite card in a traditonal deck is the ace of pentacles… that’s the capricorn in me, very fitting for a winter/earth born person. in the key im the devil lol… the capricorn with the horns of the goat and a capitalist nature not because of evil doings
im so happy we are getting to share information about the tarot -

Oh, Maxine, I’m not surprised your a Cappy! I’m a Virgo — shoe fits, doesn’t it?
I have two favorite cards: The Hermit and the Queen of Pentacles. These have always been my favorite cards, long before I learned the associations between Astrology and the Tarot. And you know what? The Queen of Pents is the Queen of Earth, and the Hermit represents the sign of Virgo!
How’s THAT for synthesis (giggles)??
