Counting the Blessings

For over a month now, my best friend and I have been practicing gratitude. Every day we share our thanks for something in our lives. This daily practice is a nice way to remind ourselves that despite all the hardships in life, there are many places where we can find the joy that comforts us and renews our spirit.

In this post, I want to share with you what I am thankful for today, and that is none other than Theresa Reed, The Tarot Lady. She is one of my favorite tarot references and offers a wealth of tarot knowledge to everyone interested in this intuitive art. This talented, amazing, incredible, inspiring woman does everything.

Her website is a tarot treasure chest. In addition to finding card meanings and spreads, you will also see that she writes a blog, offers classes, and has two podcasts (one on tarot and one on astrology—BONUS!). She is also the author of several books, which come highly recommended. I am truly thankful for Theresa Reed, her amazing mind and spirit, and everything she has to share with the tarot community. With great admiration, I like to think of her as my tarot-fairy godmother.

Through creativity and innovation, Theresa Reed delivers a powerful message while imparting her expertise to others. The tarot exercises she playfully calls tarotcizes bring fun into developing a more intimate relationship with each card. You can find the tarotcizes on Tarot Bytes and in Tarot: No Questions Asked – Mastering the Art of Intuitive Reading. Working through these exercises is a great way to integrate tarot into your life and develop a more personal relationship with the cards.

And that’s not all. The Tarot Lady has even more riches to share, her new tarot deck: Tarot for Kids. This deck was conceived with a format appropriate for kids ages 8 and up. Even if you are in your adult years, this deck promises speak to the child you are at heart. Tarot for Kids is available for pre-order now and will be released on September 21, 2021.

Seriously, Theresa Reed is an absolute gem in my book. Listening to her podcast has sharpened my skills and abilities in helping others. Leaning on Reed’s wisdom, I was able to advise a friend who was going through a difficult period. Even though my friend was in a situation that made her feel powerless, like a car running into hers, I was able to show my friend that she was still “in the driver’s seat,” that she was still in control of how she responded to the situation. I will never forget how the gift of empowerment can be such an effective and transformative force.

Again, I want to reiterate how grateful I am for Theresa Reed and her generosity in bestowing such exquisite tarot gifts upon us all. Thank you, Theresa!!

Many blessings,

Violet
