Life Gets Interesting When the Cards Hit the Table
Hi, I’m Anne.
I’ve been reading tarot for over twelve years, ever since I wandered into a bookstore with a gift card and came home with my first deck.
I was hooked.
There is still something wonderfully strange to me about putting a deck of cards on a table, asking a question, and watching a story appear.
I’m a writer and researcher with a particular fascination for religion, ritual, divination, esoteric traditions, and all the strange ways human beings have tried to make sense of reality.
I’m also a chaos magician.
Which, for me, means I’m perfectly comfortable with the possibility that reality is much weirder than we think it is.
I like old symbols and new ideas. Serious books and ridiculous experiments. Tarot cards, synchronicities, impossible questions, and strange coincidences.
I don't need everything neatly explained.
In fact, I think things get much more interesting when they aren't.
That probably explains why I still love tarot after all these years.
I read the cards directly, without scripts or sugarcoating. Sometimes the cards are encouraging. Sometimes they're inconvenient. Sometimes they're downright weird.
Life gets interesting when the cards hit the table.
