I was born with this ability. I also use the Tarot because it either reinforces what I feel about the client or adds to the reading. I love helping people, and this is one way to do this. I have been reading professionally for nearly 30 years. My studies began at 14 with the playing cards, and later on the Tarot. At this time, I have begun to study astrology, but I have no intention of doing charts. I like learning new things, and for me, astrology is new. I can read pets, children, partners, etc.
