Why I Turned to Tarot for Healing—and Why I Developed The Healing Tarot

I never expected to find myself drawn so deeply into the world of tarot. If you'd asked me years ago, I would have associated tarot with fortune-telling, dramatic readings, and vague predictions about love and money. It wasn’t until I was searching for something deeper—something that could offer me real insight and healing—that I began to understand tarot as a powerful tool for self-discovery and transformation.


My Journey Into Tarot


Like many people, I turned to tarot during a period of uncertainty. Life wasn’t necessarily falling apart, but I felt disconnected from myself, unsure of my next steps, and weighed down by thoughts I couldn’t quite make sense of. I was looking for something that could help me process my emotions and understand my own inner landscape in a way that therapy or self-help books hadn’t quite managed.


That’s when I picked up my first tarot deck—not expecting much, just curiosity (and maybe a bit of hopefulness about my love life at the time!). But as I laid out the cards and began learning their meanings, something clicked. Tarot didn’t give me definitive answers; it didn’t tell me exactly what to do. Instead, it helped me ask better questions. It gave me a new way to frame my thoughts, recognize patterns, and listen to my intuition. It became a tool not just for reflection but for healing. I learned so much about myself and the world around me through the Tarot. It gave me a window into the unknown or the confusing and a language to express it. I fell in love with Tarot and my journey began...


Why Healing Matters


Healing isn’t just about recovering from trauma or hardship. It’s about growth. It’s about understanding yourself better, making peace with your past, and stepping into your future with more confidence and clarity. Tarot helped me do that. It helped me validate my feelings, uncover limiting beliefs, and recognize the areas where I needed to let go or move forward.


What I love most about tarot is that it doesn’t impose anything on you. It meets you where you are. Whether you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, hopeful, or just curious, tarot can help you see things from a fresh perspective. It’s not about magic—it’s about meaning. It’s about reconnecting with yourself in a way that feels empowering rather than prescriptive.


Why I Created The Healing Tarot


After experiencing the benefits of tarot firsthand, I started to wonder how I could share this experience with others. I knew that a lot of people were sceptical, just as I had been. I also knew that many people were searching—looking for guidance, clarity, or simply a way to make sense of their thoughts and emotions. This information is out there but its scattered across the internet and often confusing and conflicting. The majority of Tarot teaching tools are designed to teach tarot itself, but there aren't many resources out there for taking this further. That’s why I decided to create The Healing Tarot.


I wanted to create a space where tarot could be approached as a tool for healing and growth, rather than just prediction. A place where people could explore tarot at their own pace, whether they were beginners or seasoned readers. My goal is to make tarot accessible, thoughtful, and genuinely helpful—not just something to be consumed, but something to be experienced.


This website is designed to offer both automated and interactive elements, so that you can engage with tarot in the way that best suits you. Whether you’re here for a quick healing pause, an in-depth reading, or to learn how to use tarot for your own healing journey, I hope you find what you need.


A Tarot Journey For You


Tarot isn’t about fate—it’s about awareness. It’s a tool that helps us navigate our lives with greater intention and self-knowledge. If you’re here, you’re probably looking for something too—maybe clarity, maybe comfort, maybe just a moment of reflection. Whatever brought you here, I’m glad you came.

I created this website because I believe in the power of tarot to heal, empower, and illuminate. I hope it becomes a valuable part of your journey, just as it has been for mine.


Welcome—and let’s explore tarot together.
