Tarot, can often be a misunderstood practice that seems to be shrouded in myth and skepticism. People may think of the tarot as a fortune telling practice, but I'm here to change that one sided narrative. In this blog post, I reveal my personal journey with the tarot and how I overcame my own fears and misconceptions about tarot. I discovered that it's a profound tool for self-discovery and personal growth as opposed to something to be feared. Rather than dictating the future, tarot serves as a daily guide for reflection, helping uncover my own hidden truths and helping me to navigate through life with more clarity and purpose.
Embracing my passion of tarot, I leaped out of my comfort zone, co-creating "The Tarot Table with Bonnie and Peter," a podcast aimed at exploring tarot's mysteries. By sharing my tarot journey, I hope to inspire others to embark on their own path of discovery, using tarot as a luminous guide towards personal enrichment and self-expression.
