Tarot Readings & Talks: The Tarot Fayre, Brighton, Saturday 18th July
I’m super excited to be speaking at this year’s Tarot Fayre in Brighton on Saturday 18th July! The Tarot Fayre is a one-day celebration of all things Tarot, bringing together readers, artists, deck creators, authors, speakers and enthusiasts for a day of talks, workshops, readings and (most importantly) lots of enthusiastic conversations about beautiful bits of card. I’ll also be offering Tarot readings during the morning, so if you’ve ever fancied sitting down with me for a reading, this is your chance, lol. One of the things I’m super hyped about is meeting some of the wonderful people whose work I’ve admired for years. I’m especially excited to finally meet…

The Maths of Tarot: How Many Tarot Spreads Are There (Really)? And How Long Would It Take To See Them All?
Every time you lay out a 10-card tarot spread, you’re arranging a tiny paper universe. But just how many possible universes are there? And what are the chances of ever seeing the same one twice? It turns out that there are so many possible variations on a 10 card spread like the Celtic Cross, the odds are no one else has ever had your exact spread before, anytime you do a pull. Which honestly blows my mind. Each 10 card reading is probably unique to you (and to your reader if someone else is reading for you). A message from the cards just to you, one they’ve never given to anyone else.…

Live Tarot Reading
I was reading at the Love Southsea Christmas Market at Portsmouth Historic Docks this past weekend, and was lucky enough to be interviewed by Lily, Jon, and Brendan at Express FM. You can listen to the interview – where I talk about my Tarot philosophy – followed by me doing a live reading for Lily here (I’m pleased to report no Tower was pulled, thank goodness ;-)). I’m on at 1:29, and then again at 1:44 (Urghhhhh, at one point I refer to the 9 of Pentacles as the Queen of Pentacles, because I’m an idiot – such an inopportune moment to make a slip of the tongue! – but…

Regular Readings: Love Southsea Market, Portsmouth (UK)
I’ve been running a stall every other week at the Love Southsea market in Portsmouth for a couple of months now, and it’s been going very well! So just a quick announcement to say if you happen to be local and want an in-person Tarot reading, you can find me there each month! (If you ever want to check if I’m going to be at a particular market, you can always contact me at thetarotcake@gmail.com) . . .

Readings This Weekend: SomersFest, Portsmouth
Excited to post that I’ll be offering face to face readings this weekend (Saturday 27th) at SomersFest, a community festival in my home city of Portsmouth. It’s been almost a year since I last did public readings, so I’m really keen to get back into the groove 😄. If you happen to be in Portsmouth (UK), come along and find me. I’m in the World of Wellness area with some other great folks. Sadly I won’t be in my Tent of Wonders, as it’s a hard standing pitch, so it’ll just be my common or garden traders’ gazebo, alas. To prepare I’ve been re-reading Jenna Matlin‘s fabulous ‘Have Tarot, Will…

Tarot Readings: The Green Man Festival
My blog and Instagram account will probably be a bit quiet for the next couple of weeks, because I am off to the Green Man Festival in sunny (hahahahaha) Wales! We have settler’s passes, so we’ll be there for a whole 8 days (14th – 20th August), not just the 3 days of the main festival. I love reading at festivals, and last year I managed to get some practice in (though it’s hard with two demanding small people who want 24/7 mud kitchen time), thanks to this sign and, I think, the fact that our tent looks so much like a magical circus tent from days of yore. I’ve…
