April’s Magical Opportunities & Free Tarot Reading

Free Reading Inside!

This month has lots of fun opportunities to learn!

My friend and colleague Sasa is running a free online retreat that starts this Monday. I will be speaking at it about the truths and misunderstandings around being psychic and how we are all psychic.

On April 13th, psychic medium Anna Alexander will lead a lesson online and in-person on How to Communicate with Your Spirit Guides.

After a long hiatus, I am leading my online class in the Art of Tarot Reading on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6pm to 7:30pm PST starting on April 29th through May 15th. This will likely not be running again for a long time! Hope you can join for this round!

Unseen Community Connects Us All

I appreciate the family across the street who welcomed home a baby daughter the same week I moved in. As she grew up, I knew that was how long I had lived in my house. We’re not close, but I know we watch out for each other. 

Sometimes it’s important to think about the people outside our first circle who do care about us. They may not be our best friends or our blood relatives, but they are our community.

Then there are those we form a sense of family with, even if each person is not a part of our core support.

This weekend I’m going to the coast with my costume troupe. The regular members know my ups and downs, my worst and best parts. They are my chosen family of weirdos who dress up in odd outfits together. (See photo) The new guest artists get to see me in that authentic self, even if they don’t know me yet. 

Then there’s this unseen community that I have learned about through being a tarot reader.

At the start of every reading, I call in our guardians, guides, angels, and ancestors…

Triple Goddess Symbol Revealed

One of my favorite people and deck creator of the Disassembled Tarot, Jennifer Steidley, invited me to have a chat with her on an instagram live this week about the Triple Goddess symbol.

Here are some highlights to consider the next time you see this symbol on a shirt, a tattoo, jewelry, or hanging from the wall of a New Age shop.

The triple goddess symbol represents the three phases of life through the feminine divine. Maiden is the waxing moon, Mother is the full moon, and Crone is the waning moon.

I prefer to call this Maiden, Mother, Matriarch, because alliteration is pretty and I don’t know many women who want to be called a crone these days.

Free Reading for March: Power Up During Venus Retrograde

This month’s reading is intense, but ends well with the Chariot.

The good news is that you can find structure and balance in your own life with some prime choices…

Interroception: Listen to Your Authentic Truth

I recently learned the word Interroception as “the ability to sense and perceive your body’s internal state, including your heart rate, temperature, and emotions”.

If you’ve ever had a reading with me, you know that we always begin and end with a short body scan meditation.

During the opener, I am tuning inward and welcoming information within myself to tell me how you are doing energetically and emotionally. I am also opening a sacred space for the reading that I close at the end when I clear myself.

I naturally love that this word sounds like In-Tarot-ception, because I find that this is what a good reader offers. If I can tune into how you are doing, then I can help you better access the subtle nuance of your own internal state.

Free Reading February

This month, we start with the mental discomfort of Swords and land in the solidity of Earth and systems. That is progress forward, albeit right now it might feel hard to grasp.

Transform Stress with Mindfulness and Divination

Stress infiltrates our choices.

We might panic and rush into a decision too quickly.

Sometimes we blow up at people from a past hurt that the person standing in front of us may not have even caused.

Stress makes us hyper self-protect and shut down.

There is a lot of stress right now for many of us, and I find that learning new tools to access our higher self is one of the most powerful ways to stay centered in tough times.

The intuitive and divination arts are a pathway to uplevel in your mindfulness techniques.

Psychic 2nd Sundays Program

I am excited to engage more this season with different esoteric arts and develop deeper self-trust with this type of knowing.

The amazing team of professional readers at Portlandia Fortune Tellers will lead workshops in various fields of divination this season, and you can join to glean skills from these talented teachers.

The 2nd Sunday of every month we will offer classes both online and in-person in Southeast Portland.

Intuitive Charm: Free Reading and a Lesson

It delights me when someone witnesses their own inherent ability to be more psychic.

We all have innate gift, we simply need to learn the ways to better access it.

Today, I offer a free reading in charms with a lesson in interpreting. I will share the message I see, and I also welcome you to answer the questions to sort out your own clarity from the spread.

Also, if you have not yet told me, let me know when you would be most available to join the live online Art of Tarot Course that I will be leading in May.

This winter, the team of professionals at Portlandia Fortune Tellers will lead two-hour lessons in various fields of the esoteric arts.

The 2nd Sunday of every month we will offer classes both online and in-person in Portland.

Enlivened Learning: Take the Poll

The last time I taught a full 9-hour Art of Tarot Reading course was in October 2022.

I still plan to shift this into an evergreen online video program. I simply love the magic and connection that a live class online offers, and feel called to bring an opportunity to the community again.
