What are Intuitive Readings?

Tarot & Astrology Online and in Akron, Ohio

What is an Intuitive Reading?

An Intuitive Reading is a focused session of symbolic guidance.


Where Spiritual Direction unfolds over time, a reading gathers your life into the present moment. We look closely at a question, a transition, or a crossroads and invite symbol and pattern to clarify what is already moving beneath the surface.


This work is not fortune-telling. It is meaning-making.


Through Tarot or Astrology, we enter the imaginal language of the psyche. We pay attention to archetype, timing, pattern, and image. When approached through a Jungian lens, these tools become mirrors. They reveal what is active in your unconscious, what is seeking integration, and what is asking for conscious participation. In the language of spiritual formation, they help you respond to your life with awareness rather than reactivity.

Intuition is perception via the unconscious.

Carl Jung, Collected Works, Vol. 6

Tarot Readings

What is a Tarot Reading?

Tarot is a symbolic system rooted in archetype and image.

In a session, we bring a clear question or situation to the cards. The spread becomes a map of the psychological and spiritual forces at play. We explore what stands out, what feels charged, what reflects your current pattern. I do not impose meaning. We read the field together.


Tarot works beautifully within Jungian psychology because it activates the imagination. It gives the unconscious something visible to speak through. 

Within spiritual formation, Tarot becomes a tool of discernment.


It helps you ask:

Where am I being invited to grow?
What part of me needs attention?
What is asking to be released?
What wants to be strengthened?


What I Need From You

Come with a focused question or area of life you want to explore. Relationship, vocation, transition, creative work, family dynamics, spiritual uncertainty. Clarity in your question creates clarity in the reading.

Astrology Readings

What is an Astrology Reading?

Astrology is the study of symbolic timing and archetypal pattern.


In Jungian terms, your birth chart is a symbolic map of the psyche. It reveals core drives, tensions, gifts, and developmental themes. It shows how your individuality is structured and how you are wired to grow.

In spiritual formation, astrology provides orientation. It helps you understand the season you are in and the kind of work your soul is being invited to do.


I offer two types of Astrology Readings:

Natal Chart Reading

A Natal Reading explores the chart of your birth.


This session looks at your core patterning, strengths, shadow themes, relational style, vocation threads, and spiritual development over time. It can be especially powerful during midlife, when the deeper architecture of the psyche begins to demand conscious engagement. We examine the structure of your chart and how it has unfolded in your life so far. You begin to see your story with greater compassion and coherence.


What I Need From You
Your birth date, exact birth time, and birth location.

Horary Reading

A Horary Reading is different. Instead of mapping your entire life, it addresses a single, specific question. The chart is cast for the moment the question is asked. That moment holds meaning.

Horary is precise. It is best used for focused questions that require clarity


For example:

Is this opportunity aligned for me?
What is happening beneath this conflict?
What is the deeper truth in this situation?


Horary works because time itself carries symbolic intelligence. When approached through Jungian psychology, it reveals what is constellated in the field of your life at that moment.


What I Need From You
A clearly formed, specific question.

The symbol is not a sign for something known. It is an attempt to elucidate by analogy something that is still entirely unknown and still in the process of formation.

Carl Jung, Collected Works, Vol. 6

How These Tools Fit Within My Work

Tarot and Astrology are extensions of spiritual formation and depth psychology in my practice. Both systems operate through archetype and symbol. Both give the unconscious a language. Both support discernment.


I approach them with psychological grounding and spiritual maturity. The aim is never spectacle but clarity. These readings can stand alone as focused sessions, or they can deepen ongoing Spiritual Direction work.
