“I really try to make [tarot readings] as anchoring and grounding as possible. This is a healing experience; it’s not meant to make you fearful or anxious. If a reader’s making you feel that way, they’re doing it wrong.” Tarot reader, psychic and author of “The Inner Tarot: A Modern Approach to Self-Compassion and Empowered Healing Using the Tarot” Kate Van Horn joins the show to discuss how the tarot can support your healing journey and transform your life.
As a trauma survivor, Kate credits her intuitive gifts and psychic abilities to finding light in periods of shadow. She candidly shares her story overcoming sexual abuse, PTSD, and eating disorders in the hope of inspiring others to radically accept their stories, their bodies and their gifts. Kate, who has been featured in Well + Good, Prevention, mindbodygreen, and many other popular publications and podcasts in the health and wellness space, believes tarot, channeled writing, and intuitive movement can serve as important tools for self-transformation and stand as a beautiful compliment to holistic healing.
In this episode, Kate shares her experience using tarot as a healing tool after her PTSD diagnosis, which eventually led her to become an intuitive healer and psychic reader. We talk about cultivating a relationship with the cards and deciphering their meaning when you’re a beginner tarot reader, as well as the importance of re-parenting ourselves and using the cards as a way to connect with your inner child. Kate gives tips on how to read your own cards and the best questions to ask the deck. We also discuss the origin of tarot, debunk popular superstitions and review each suit (pentacles, cups, swords and wands) and their meanings. Kate shares about her writing process and what the book means to her both professionally and personally. We also discuss astrology, human design and letting go of the pressure to discover your passion and purpose.
