Practical magic
tarot readings by paul
What is Tarot?
It's a divination system based on symbols and scenes that play out in 78 cards. I think of it like a Greek myth, a story that speaks wisdom and meaning in metaphors. I use my experience in mediumship to focus on what the cards are telling me for you when we do a reading.
Before we meet (via remotely or in person) I always do a meditation and cleansing of the deck, which includes lighting a white candle and burning white sage (grown ethically and privately by a small sage farm in Southern California.) The deck is then shuffled and I only pull the cards that have the spark that I connect with that's meant for your reading.
Experience:
I didn't pursue Tarot; it pursued me.
Raised in the shadow of Mount Shasta, I was steeped in the metaphysical community of Southern Oregon as a teen. Taught and trained by serendipitous seers and shamans, I soaked in the wisdom of real witches and wizards who emphasized action with intuition: Practical Magic.
Collaborating with Spirit, I offer perspectives and possibilities. Sometimes psychic, sometimes intuitive; always practical. Together we give flexibility to fate and fun to the future.
I believe Fate is flexible. Free Will is too. What I do is try to get the two to meet in the middle and agree to work together for your future.
What To Expect:
Expect to have FUN!
Look, I'm an Outsider's “Outsider.” I'm even too weird for most of the outcasts and underdogs. I'm not going to bullshit you with some dark occult nonsense because I believe there's just too much of that going around. I'm a Gay guy who's been around before the internet and “safe spaces” and who appreciates the adversity he went through. I also was trained by the original witches, healers, hippies and magicians of the 60's who ended up in Southern Oregon in the late 1980's and liked teaching the awkward, gay kid who had a knack for this stuff. That's me.
