Experienced tarot reader for over 30 years. I have always used the Rider-Waite cards and as Wikipedia tells us "While the images are deceptively simple, almost child-like, the details and backgrounds hold a wealth of symbolism."

I have been written about in several papers for my abilities,interviewed on T.V. and attended many psychic fairs as a featured reader.

I begin my reading with the Doreen Virtue Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards, to find which Goddess is influencing your reading and whom is with you at this time."The goddesses are angelic, powerful, loving beings who want to help you with every part of your life." 44 oracle cards show cross-cultural goddesses,each to help you giving you a specific message to improve your "life, health, relationships, finances, career, and spiritual path." some of the Goddess are Kuan Yin, Laksmi, Brigit, Isis, and Athena, as well as goddesses from Celtic, Mayan, Egyptian, Greek, Tibetan, Buddhist, and other traditions.

The Symbolon Tarot deck which helps to recreate memories from past lives. These beautiful cards show images from European myths and history, and on each corner of the card are astrological symbols. While designed for psychological or memory work, they are also used as a divination tool. I lay these cards over the spread, to gain additional information on the reading or to reinforce the cards.

FEEDBACK FROM A CLIENT from my other online store from artfire
" I want to thank you so much you are truly gifted! My experience was wonderful, I am grateful for your insight, you took the time to answer and to go threw thoroughly all of my questions.You were charming and compassionate to my feelings.

I have had many readings on the phone and it seemed that I was always being charged more and more, because so many are by the minute, I choose your reading because I knew I would only pay US $25.00 and because of the amount of experience you have. You took over an hour and never once said "Time is up!"

I highly recommend you to others who are searching for answers in their struggles.

P.S. I liked the fact that I had the option to call you or have you call me. Thanks again. "

Waite, Smith and Levi in the Rider-Waite Deck

Waite and Smith

I have always thought the images were simple, even child-like,yet I have found a wealth of symbolism in background, as will you when you look closely at each card.

"Waite had the Christian imagery of older tarot decks' cards toned down—the "Pope" card became the "Hierophant", the "Papess" became the "High Priestess". The Minor Arcana are also, as in the earlier Sola Busca Tarot, fully illustrated with designs created by Smith." (wikipedia) I have used them because they are tradiona (cards published 1909) in many aspects and the imaginary has always been very effective and accurate for me. I have stayed away from decks with dragons, or fairies for hard core psychic readings. The symbols, influenced by the 19th century magician and occultist Eliphas Levi.

I myself don't care for Levi for he turned perverted and went into the dark. He used Tarot cards in his magical system, and as a result many magicians use them as well. Levi had a deep impact on the magic of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and later on the ex-Golden Dawn member Aleister Crowley.(another whom has given Wicca, tarot reading a bad name.

It is interesting to note however that he is attributed to declaring that a pentagram or five-pointed star with one point down and two points up represents "bad", while a pentagram with one point up and two points down is "good". It was largely through the occultists inspired by him that Lévi is remembered as one of the key founders of the twentieth century revival of magic, many who are practicing black magic.

Please be aware of the up side down star , it is important that you use it upright and beware of those who revert it, it is meant to mean evil. Here is the star that was designed by Levi

Eliphas Levi's Tetragrammaton pentagram,

which he considered to be a symbol

of the microcosm, or human being

As seen in these two cards, both 10's, the one on the right the 10 of swords can be understood by even a child, backstabbing, not a 'GOOD' card, while the other , the 10 of cups (love) is clearly a HAPPY card, and in fact it is, a pleasant marriage, with the possibility of children and a golden future. There are more complex meanings, of coarse, which mostly depend on the placement of the cards, but the Rider-Waite decks imagery is archetypical.

The card of the 'Fool' from the Rider Waite Deck. Its meaning.

Its Meaning in a reading

Often times when the fool card comes up in a reading one is filled with a sense of shame, for who wants to be associated with being foolish? As with all the cards, one needs to look closely at the imagery. Also remember the days of the Kings court, where it was the fool who entertained the court, who advised and revealed his wisdom through sarcasm and wit.

When this card turns up it often times, depending on its location and the question asked, is a warning. The fool looks up at the blue sky, he breaths in the fresh air and is enjoying himself, he is optimistic about his journey ( As indicted by the familiar hobo pack of taking a trip on his shoulder) yet he does not look down at his dog barking franticly at him. What is the dog trying to do? Trying to tell him? The dog is attempting to get his masters attention. The fool is in a dreamlike state, daydreaming about his new future, how much better things will be .

The fool does not see, however, that he is about to walk off the edge of the cliff before him, to his peril. This is our warning. Depending on the question, and the cards location, the person receiving the reading is being warned, to keep there eyes open before embarking on their new journey or relationship. It is very important to have an optimistic approach in your endeavors, but also be aware of what could go wrong. Listen to your gut reaction and intuition. Keep your nose to the grindstone. Look at the possible pitfalls that lie before you. If you are aware of them, it is more likely that you will not fall victim to them.

If the fool listens to his friend the dog ( the reader should advise that he/she solicit the opinion of their friends and consider their input) , he would look and see the cliff he is about to approach. He would take measures not to fall in. He would take an different route, look for a bridge. It does not necessarily prevent him from his journey. One should not give up just because they face an obstacle. Find the solution. One can make the choice to climb down the cliff and then back up again. If in a reading one is asking about a new relationship, let them know it will be faced with possible ups and downs and certain complicatedness.

If the card is revered, then the fool is looking to the ground, is aware of the obstacles in front of him, has his eyes wide open, is considering the advice of his friends. In this sense it is a favorable card for the person receiving the reading.
