11/27/20 • 16 min

Sometimes readings aren’t all shiny and happy. Sometimes, the reading gets deep and unexpected. In these hard readings, tarot readers have an even more important job than tossing cards onto a table. We hold space, really listen to our clients and give them time to speak, and bear witness to their journey.

Melissa, Hilary, and Jaymi take you on a whirlwind tour of boundaries and how you can use them in your personal, professional, and in-between times.
