When life gets tangled

Tarot Readings to see your life with fresh eyes, find the thread, and prepare for what comes next.

Tarot is like water - it shows you the easiest path.

In any landscape, the river picks the easiest way through. And Tarot does the same.
The cards bring your attention to what matters most. Even when it's not what you expected.

I give warm and direct readings that rest on a decade of experience bridging how the myths in each card reveal patterns in your life.

I don't tell you what decisions to make. I give you a map, so you can move forward with confidence.

What brings people to a reading?

You might be:

- Facing a big decision about work, home, relationships, or your next direction.

- Moving through a breakup, a transition, or a change you didn't expect.

- Going round in circles with a question you can't seem to settle.

- Trying to understand a recurring pattern in your life.

- Holding space for everyone else and needing to sit with yourself.

You don't need to know tarot already, or believe in any particular thing. Just a willingness to listen to what comes up.

What to expect

You can arrive with or without a question.
(but here are some examples).

A tarot deck is like a council of bossy grandmothers - they’ll tell you what they want to tell you anyway.

I'll share what I see in the cards, with care. There'll be no frills and no judgment. And it's a conversation : you can ask questions, disagree, clarify details that matter to you.

Sometimes you get confirmation of something you already knew. Sometimes they bring a completely new perspective. A reading can be surprisingly rich, and occasionally emotional. We take the time to explore.

You leave with a clearer picture of your situation, new perspectives to consider, and something useful to take into your next steps.

Readings make great gifts

What makes my readings different?

I take your life as it is.

My clients are often adventurous/unconventional when it comes to relationships, work, choices. My background in intimacy, embodiment, and tantric bodywork means I'm experienced and comfortable with complexity, with the nuances of all kinds of lifestyles.

I tell you what I see, with care.

I'm not here to frighten you, flatter you, or invent a story that sounds comforting. I aim to be clear and compassionate, even when a message is difficult to hear.

I connect the dots.

A reading with me often unfolds as a story: your history, your present situation, the patterns at play, and the possibilities ahead. I draw on mythology, symbolism, coïncidences of the day-to-day.

I give you tools.

Insight matters, but even more so - what you do with it.
I'll help you identify useful questions, resources, and possible next steps.

What clients say

“Poetic but grounded and practical.”

“A soft wander into the psyche with direct clear advice.”

“It felt like a reading and a coaching.”

“Simple, clear, warm and effective.”

Testimonials

  • Golden

    I felt so deeply seen and held throughout this reading ♥️ Joy really had so much wisdom, compassion and Love It was not only a reading, it was also a psychic channelling, a therapy, a joyful fun encounter, a soothing hug… Loved it thank you

  • Mattea

    I have never received a reading that accompanied me for such a long time. When Joy gave me a Tarot reading a few months ago, it felt like she was lovingly drawing me a map to navigate a yet faraway and unknown territory. Her voice and her ability to spellcast reality with words illustrated a story that soon became mine - invaluable directions for trails I soon found myself stepping on.

  • Rachel

    Joy's way of reading the cards, seeing and interpreting the symbols, seeing the obvious and the hidden and the way she listened attentively to the oracle touched me on a human and soul level. I left this session with a feeling of "yes I am exactly where I am supposed to be and I know what I have to do next", with both practical inspiration and a deep sense of trust and faith in my life and the greater whole.

  • Julia

    Wow, that was an empowering reading! Joy was there with me and for me in a gentle, sensitive, precise and empathic way. This was much more than only a reading of what the cards had to say, but also about my next steps to integrate and implement this message in the conflicting situation I was. It felt like a reading and a coaching. I am stunned by the depth and wisdom - and the light butterfly energy in Joys words. So many aspects of a healer. Don't miss the chance to get this perspective.

  • Ben

    Thank you so much Joy I can’t express how happy this has made me. Thank you for the reading, every word, every card, thank you. And your delivery is lush, really warm :) This has really made things clearer and has given me so much to work with. So much praise and gratitude.

  • Nora

    Joy‘s tarot reading for me in her unique and incredibly skilled way of using language gave me a very clear direction and orientation for aspects of my life that I had inquired about, reaffirming things that I somehow, deep down, already knew but didn’t yet have the words or clarity for. Everything she relayed to me resonated as true. There is wisdom and power in anything Joy approaches (I have already witnessed her in different roles and areas). She is not afraid of going deep, in a way that feels gentle and sincere. I absolutely recommend putting your trust in her and watching magic unfold.

  • Tom

    My reading with Joy was an incredible experience from start to finish. She was truly respectful, non-judgemental and gave me the time I needed. Joy is a naturally gifted and sensitive reader and being in her presence was a very calming and spiritual experience. She is indeed abundant in her natural gift. Thank you Joy.

FAQs

  • No.

  • You can come for a general reading, but sometimes questions help refine.
    I suggest:

    • Open-ended- Not yes-no - Rather: How-What-Where

    • Avoid - why and when questions

    • Be clear and specific

    Examples :

    • What might I experience if (…)?

    • What new opportunities are emerging?

    • What lesson am I learning right now?

    • What are my blind spots?

    • How can I create more (…)?

    • What actions do I need to take to get closer to my goals?

    • What matters most in my life right now? 

  • No. I'll share what I see, the connections I notice, and the possibilities the cards bring into view.

    I make things clearer for you, so you can make the decisions.

  • You are welcome to ask clarifying questions if anything is unclear.

  • Absolutely. Just click on any reading, the option will appear upon booking.

  • We can explore your experience of a relationship, the dynamics you're navigating, and what you need to understand about your own situation.

    I don't read private information about someone who isn't part of the session.

  • English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese (BR).

  • So you can return to it later. Readings often reveal different layers over time, and you don't have to remember everything in the moment.
