Beams of light: a few reader recommendations

I read my own cards all the time. Pretty much every day, as a matter of fact! But sometimes I’m way too emotionally entrenched in a situation to read for myself. In those times, I turn to the talented population of our tarot community. There are SO MANY amazing tarot readers out there and it makes my heart happy. I’ve worked with a few amazing readers lately, and I want to tell you a little about them today.

Vickie Wilson

A few months ago, I found myself constantly dreaming about an old friend. It felt cosmically significant, but I couldn’t see for myself why that was. And so I turned to Vickie, and received an in-depth, articulate, and to the point reading.

Vickie incorporated astrology and tarot, with astonishing results. My mouth was literally hanging open as I read certain parts – she described my friendship with this person SO accurately, it was like she knew us!

It was also really useful for me to get a reading from Vickie because her style was direct – no fluff, no fancy frills – just straight up wisdom. She’s wonderful at giving tough love! There were a few things in the reading that I know I NEEDED to hear, but I didn’t necessarily WANT to hear them at the time, haha! Vickie was always kind and empathetic, but still told it like it was. I really admire that approach.

Kelly-Ann Maddox

If you follow my blog or Instagram regularly, you might remember that I went through some pretty intense inner turmoil last month. I could sense I needed guidance, and so I turned to Kelly-Ann for a reading to help me work with that Tower energy.

I received a video reading, and it was truly a treat. If you’ve seen her YouTube videos, you know the magic Kelly-Ann weaves with cards and words. I was enchanted throughout the entire video, and you bet your bum I took a lot of notes!

The most poignant thing about the reading was the way Kelly-Ann tapped into so many nuances of my situation. She helped turn my attention to aspects of my life that I wasn’t consciously aware I needed to look at. The reading helped me flip some mental switches and gave me lots of tangible advice to work with.

Dana Machacek

This reading came along due completely to the powers of synchronicity and the delightful workings of the universe – and I’m sure glad it did. I’ve been following Dana for a while on Instagram, and she sure is a beam of light. She’s very positive (high vibe as the cool kids say) but still thoughtful and real.

This was a unique reading in that Dana did not use cards. Instead, she intuitively tuned into my energy. It was a new experience for me – I’d never had a reading that was so utterly intuitive. I went into it with an open mind, and I was quite pleased with what I received.

The most powerful thing about my reading with Dana is that she tapped in to many issues that had been lingering in my unconscious mind for some time, but I hadn’t been ready to address them. Dana firmly but gently brought those energies to the surface, putting words to what had been stewing within me. It felt like a sigh of relief hearing someone else describe my thoughts and feelings – it gave my experiences validation, and I didn’t know how much I needed that until I had it.

Honorable mention: Jessi Huntenburg

If you aren’t familiar with Siobhan’s monthly tarotscopes, you should absolutely check them out. Each month on her site, Siobhan brings together twelve tarot readers to contribute a tarotscope for each of the zodiac signs. I always enjoy reading them – Siobhan certainly has a knack for bringing talented people together.

I’m a Cancer, and when I clicked over to read my ‘scope for Leo season I had to do a double take. The reading, contributed by Jessi Huntenburg, was soooo applicable to me that I think my exact words were “holy fucking shit.” Seriously, I can’t even describe the levels of meaning I derived from this short but potent AF message Jessi delivered. That’s why I’ve listed her as an honorable mention – technically I didn’t get a “personal” reading from her, but I sure as hell feel like I did!
