Tarot & Tapping
“We can predict the future when we know how the present moment has evolved out of the past.”
- CG. Jung
What Is Tarot?
You may have heard of the Tarot as a classic system of divination using illustrated cards. What I offer in particular are readings of a psychospiritual and Jungian approach, which serve to help clients reflect on a present state or situation and on their own sense of agency and intention. I focus on the Tarot system as a gateway into psychological archetypes, and aim to encourage and guide clients in using the cards as a sounding board for personal insight.
EFT (also known as “Tapping”) is an acronym for Emotional Freedom Techniques, an energy psychology modality that combines cognitive reframing with somatic stimulation; in particular, it utilizes percussive tapping of acupressure points, easily self-administered by the client with their own fingertips. I guide clients in tapping on specific energetic pathways known as meridians while talking on an issue or problem. A degree of emotional release or relief is usually felt after only a few minutes.
In my work, I aim to help clients combine the self-reflective aspects of Tarot with the somatic effects of Tapping in achieving states of mindfulness.
Disclaimer:
While Tarot may help with insight into the self and certain life situations, it is first and foremost entertainment, and is not a replacement for psychological, medical or therapeutic intervention. Any EFT used during these sessions is done in a very minimal, “guided meditation” approach, and is only applied when appropriate. For deeper and more therapeutic work, I recommend booking a full-length energy therapy session instead.
