I began to study tarot during a very traumatic time in my life, when I was leaving a Christian fundamentalist cult and, as it turned out, also dealing with a challenging divorce, starting a new business, remarrying, and moving to Colorado. I started out with the classic Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck and Rachel Pollack's 78º of Wisdom, and the cards were immediately helpful and comforting and helped me make a success of my life and all the transitions I was going through. Since then, I've read for 1,000s of friends and clients (and myself) on all topics, including divorce (and *avoiding* divorce and breakups), business, school, and new relationships. I also have clients who consult me on mundane decisions—such as what new skis to buy!—and find that the spiritual teacher in the cards is happy to weigh in on these issues as well.
