TAROT + MINDFULNESS

Tarot readings offer a unique lens for introspection, aiding in mindfulness and personal discovery.


By reflecting on the symbolism in the cards, individuals can gain insights into their emotions, behaviours, and underlying thought patterns.


However, it's essential to recognize the limitations of tarot in addressing severe mental health issues.

While tarot can provide valuable perspectives and encourage self-awareness, it is not a substitute for professional mental health care. For concerns that extend beyond the scope of self-reflection, seeking guidance from licensed mental health professionals is crucial.


"Taking care of your mental health is an essential part of living a healthy, fulfilling life. Prioritize it with the same urgency as you would your physical health, because the two are inextricably linked."

- Dr. Susan David

Mental Health & Tarot

Setting Positive Intentions

Begin each tarot reading by setting clear, positive intentions. Focus on openness to understanding and personal development, rather than seeking definitive answers to life's challenges. This mindset encourages a healthier approach to the insights gained.

Creating a Safe Space

Ensure your reading environment is comforting and secure. A safe physical and emotional space can significantly enhance the introspective experience of a tarot reading.

Emotional Balance

Be mindful of your emotional responses during a reading. Tarot can sometimes bring up sensitive topics. Approach these moments with compassion and consider stepping back if the content becomes overwhelming.

Emphasis on Personal Growth

Use tarot as a tool for self-improvement. Let the cards guide you in exploring areas for personal growth, emotional healing, and self-care. The aim is to foster resilience and a deeper understanding of oneself.

Seeking Professional Help

Remember that tarot readings are not a replacement for professional mental health care. If a reading surfaces deeper emotional or mental health concerns, it's essential to seek support from qualified professionals.
