I have 8 different decks, that have all come to me at different times, thru different people, events, draws. There have been decks that have left, but I'll talk about that later ☮️

I feel like the decks are so personal. I might take pictures of a card or two, but in the end it feels like a "feel cute now, might delete later" image because truthfully it feels like too much info for the internet + I don't want to dishonor the deck.
As someone who shares a lot about their personal life on the internet, this might seem strange to people,
But I am not the decks. The decks have their own beingness and if i want to keep the magical collaboration going, some respects need to be given. They are ritual objects.

I get this one a lot! What I did won’t work for everyone, but I’ll share what I did and feel free to take what works for you & discard the rest...
I read tarot out of my house. I began reading just as practice, and as I got better and improved, & folks started wanting & asking for tarot - as opposed to me just offering it at events, etc -
They started self electing to pay. We made a tarot donation jar eventually.... and then someone recommended me to read at Quidditas...
I met Tran and was able to read tarot there during the main tarot readers day off .
When that job ended, another shop space offered me space. At this point I went from a more drop in client base to appointments .
Getting this room was a total gift moment ... I knew I wanted to read full time but had outgrown my space more or less...
I heard mintage mall was opening up & I had read tarot at once of the mintage staff parties before...
Skylar was into it, and it worked out. It was a lot of believing in myself, other people believing in me, and a lot of hard work. .
Reading tarot isn’t easy. I love it, it’s very fulfilling to me, but it is not easy.
But you can totally do it, and there’s a million ways to go about it.
No one’s journey is the same, there’s times where you have no space to read out of, there are times when the space you are reading out if you are outgrowing..
But it’s possible, and it’s just getting easier now that there’s less stigma around it. There’s a long way to go - still lots of push/pull from folks around “witch work” but whatever, you do what you do and folks are starting to come back to the old ways, so that makes it easier & more accessible for folks.
So yeah, that’s my story.
