Tarot cards are pieces of paper with a series of symbolic art on them. That's it.

Tarot READERS, though, now there's some magic.

I've been reading tarot cards for 30 years and I can tell you that they're not magical, mystical or otherwise. The cards are cards, and you're the one who makes them amazing.

I live in St. Louis with my husband, Joe (who is my favorite), my kiddos, five black cats, two dogs, and our tortoise, Phil. I really, really like superhero movies and when I'm not reading or writing, I'm hanging out with my friends. I'm a lucky girl.
