The Hello and welcome to Tarot Bites. I'm Theresa Read The Tarot Lady. I'm the author of Tarot no questions asked, master in the art of intuitive reading.

I'm also your host for this podcast series. This is episode 232 of Tarot Bites.

The podcast where I dish out short entertaining bite-sized lessons on how to re-tero.

And for today's episode, our topic is, Awaken the Court court cards and my special guest is Thomas

from Hermann Smear. Welcome Thomas. Hi thank you for having me. Well I am

delighted to have you here.

I know that you have written an amazing workbook called Awaken the Court

Cards.

And we're going to talk about the workbook in a moment.

But I want to start off by asking you this. How did you get started with Tarot?

Okay, this story has evolved as I've sort of remembered more bits and pieces.

The beginning, the beginning has always been the sort of remembered more bits and pieces.

The beginning, the beginning has always been the same,

but the details in the middle have shifted.

My mom used to read coffee grounds,

and she would be a vivid often psychic dreamer and my sister seemed to be psychic like she would go up to a woman and say oh you're you know

How do you feel about the baby and she didn't even know that she was pregnant yet.

And so that was sort of around me,

but I didn't have any of that.

As I later discovered, I actually did do a little bit of divination through looking at clouds, sort of coming up with stories and seeing what would be happening or what I wanted to do with whatever information I could glean from clouds cryinging, but I discovered Taro at about the age of 14 or 15.

When my sister moved off to the college and I inherited her room and then included her bookshelf which included a either

Italian or French version of the writer weight. So that's how it got started.
