Hi Friends, from New Zealand

[modern oracle]

Hi Friends,

 

I am so glad to find this forum as it can be difficult finding tarot sisters (and brothers) out there.

 

My sister in law gave me my first reading 12 years ago, and can you believe it.. at the end of the session she handed me the tarot deck! She wouldn't take no for an answer and I have been (forever gratefully) reading ever since.

 

I have read for myself consistently over the years, deepening my knowledge of the cards as I went. I received (and released) a number of decks during that time and currently hold my favourite Connolly Tarot deck and Titania's Lenormand deck, both of which are almost falling to pieces.

 

I have also read for friends, family and strangers, always free of charge, but feel I am ready to take my skills to the next level and read professionally.

 

My approach to reading is a modern mix of intuition and intellect. I am also interested in metaphysics, quantum theory, parapsychology, numerology, symbolism, esoteric and occult philosophy, NDE and OBE research, the Mind-Body connection and ecological impact on wellness.

 

Are there any fellow New Zealanders here?

 

Any deck recommendations? (as I mentioned, mine are almost in pieces)

 

Tips for finding tarot work online? (my website is a work in progress and will also be conducting face to face readings, but just wondered if anyone had any wisdom to share)

 

Many thanks for having me here, I am excited to learn and share what I can x

Hi there!  X/

 

Can it ever be difficult finding fellow taroists, you’re so right there and this forum seems a great place to start though! And may I say, your sister-in-law seem wonderful! To kickstart you on the tarot path like that! Sometimes the best dwindles on the life road are the sudden ones!

 

Taking it to the next level and go pro are sure some exciting sounding plans! There’s probably much vivacious fun awaits for you in that!

 

I’m new on here as well. Map-wise we live about as far away from eachother as is possible, but New Zeeland seems a very nice place on Earth! I read for myself, and occasionally for family. To practice more readings is on my wishlist, and with tarot there’s forever something new to grasp and discover. It’s an unending journey, isn’t it, and I love that!  X/

Welcome to TT&M!! I agree with Thoughtful that your last two questions would be best for individual threads because I think both will lead to great discussions :)

Aww thank you so much everyone! I feel very welcomed indeed ^-^

 

I look forward to participating in discussions through different threads. If I am honest, I haven't used a forum like this one since the days of dial up internet! It is so nice to see the strength of this online community :)

 

I would love to hear how you all got started in tarot?

And where you're all from?

 

Are those better questions for this introductions thread?

[Deviation]

Hi! I'm new too, so lets have fun together! I can't make much in the way of recommendations, but I there are sections of this forum dedicated to different decks if you wanna look there!

 

I got started with tarot largely because of a friend. It seemed that my life was just a series of happy accidents that led me to tarot.

 

I'm from the United States, but my family hails from Cuba and Costa Rica!
