About ME

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me. I will try to keep it "short and sweet" as the saying goes, whilst at the same time being mindful of providing enough information to allow you to get to know me a little. I would also hope to show you, not only my passion , my gained experience and my knowledge of my beloved craft but also my overall love for the magic of spiritual and psychic development.

So where did it all start for me?

Well, although it is very much 'the same old cliche' which is quoted by many psychics and an answer which you may have read time and time again... for me it also goes way back to when I was a child. Well, I say this because I have never known anything different.  A teacher who I met again whilst in my 20s told me that he remembered me as  having a sensible head on young shoulders. I laughed when he shared this but at the same time I knew what he meant because my son is  similar. He is in his twenties now but from a tiny tot he was always sensible and mature for his years. Family would say how he had "been here before". He has certainly inherited the gift which of course I find amazing but as of yet he has no care for !  

I grew up in a normal family unit, with good loving parents and close with my younger siblings -my sister and brother.  We were not a religious family but at the same time we all had our faith and acknowledged the spirit world as a given.  l believe the abilities I have (and my sister too ) come from my Father's side. In fact my Father has had some experiences of his own, including seeing my late  Grandmother (his mother) on the day of my wedding. It was for a few split seconds in the church as we took our vowels. A warming thought.

My maternal Grandmother and her family used to read tea leaves. My Father remembers this when he was a child and in addition we have had practicing Mediums on my paternal Grandfather's side of the family. I keep promising myself to one day devote the time and energy to working on my family tree to discover more... I know it is likely to give so many answers so I will get around to it. 

 I have been able to trust and follow this "knowing", or this sense or intuition. I remember once walking along a road side and the thought came to me to step out of the way or something could come around the blind corner and hit me. As quick as the thought came to me is as quick as I stepped aside. Within seconds a car came flying around the corner, swerved to miss another car and in doing so mounted the path. If I hadn't moved it would have hit me. My husband was in our parked car waiting for me, looking on in shock what he had just witnessed. As I got into our car beside him he said "that car would have hit you if you hadn't moved out of the way !"  "I know " I replied. This sort of experience wasn't a daily occurence but at the same time it wasn't rare. It just happened and was shrugged off. 

I have always considered myself to have empath tendencies ... of being  sensitive around others at times. This would often become evident (still does) in certain situations such as when walking past someone in the supermarket for example. I have then felt what I would assume was their rush of emotion. I would turn to my husband saying " Ah that poor man is suffering grief " or "that poor lady has so much worry at the moment".  It is like for a split second you just feel what they have surrounding them in their energy, their aura at the time.  

My paternal Grandmother passed away suddenly when I was 14.  She became a Guide. Although she never made this known to me .... throughout my teens if I went for a reading or maybe to a psychic fayre time and time again she would come through with a message. The Medium always described her well and on one particular message I was told to be working on my development workbook (I did have a development workbook and had neglected it for a while !) 

During my late teens and into my twenties I had many unexplainable experiences. I was knowing people's surnames, their occupations etc on first meeting them.  Friends would ask "how did you know that?" to my reply ... "ugh I just did !" 

When I met my husband in the late 80s he was a non believer. He didn't mock me but he would say.... "I will believe it when I see it"  Well let's just say with what he has experienced over the years he certainly believes now!  He has seen and witnessed wow moments for himself as well and through me. He is very supportive of my work and it is part of our everyday life. He in fact brought me my first Tarot deck for Christmas 1998.  In the early days when he was unsure he would famously whisper to me in crowded situations "please don't start here".  We still laugh at this. 

My development continued throughout my twenties (the 90s) and into my thirties. All self taught. During this time my sister in law was Pagan, I would be interested in her ways and views. Then my husband and I moved home (incidentally, I actually dreamt who would buy our flat - my husband's colleague. I dreamt what he would be wearing on the moving in day. All this came true right down to his army green t-shirt and jeans !) We moved next door to a practicing witch. All meant to be.  We would hold our own small development evenings ... I remember working with psychometry and telepathic exercises.... good fun with some interesting results. 

My next shift ... and it was a major one, was when my beautiful Mum unexpectedly passed away. Devastating the family. I could still feel her energy and knew she wouldn't be far from us all. A few years later my  my Father in Law passed suddenly also. The desire to further focus my development and to have contact with my Mum led me to seeking training from a professional and highly experienced Medium/Tutor called Lynn. Although at times she was strict and would push students out of their comfort zone, she was and still is a fantastic tutor and highly gifted Medium. I am blessed that she stepped onto my path for those years.  I sat in Circle with her for 3 years in 2010. There after I joined a few other local development circles in the years that followed. Around this time my main draw soon became evident and I was back with Tarot again.  

 It just felt right and the right path for me. My tarot reading is self taught and I am very much connected to it.  I immersed myself in my books, bought more books and more books. I was fascinated by the variations in interpretations, how traditional meanings had twists and were seen in an alternative way for different authors. I would jot down my own experiences in comparison. I practiced, studied and read.  It all just slotted together and by 2013 I was starting to read Tarot professionally. 

My clients came back, clients referred me to family and friends and it grew from there.  I soon began getting interested in teaching Tarot and  Psychic Development. I loved sharing my knowledge and experiences... It started with friends who were simply interested in Tarot after having a reading. This then led to courses with paying students and on to mentorships. All of which I love with a passion. 

So this brings me to where I am today I guess. After a good chunk of sick leave - when I was truly experiencing a definite 4 of Swords .... I am finally back !  

I am truly grateful to and thankful to my long term and regular clients. The continued support,  well wishes and check ins have been so very much appreciated.  Beyond words. 

And finally .... 

 In addition to the new updated website, 2022 will see new projects, new venues and events, plus my teaching will take a twist, with a whole new direction.
