1. How does your motherly intuition serve you?
I have always been sensitive to other people’s feelings and moods but I believe this has been enhanced since I became a Mum. Young children rely on their parents for support, especially of an emotional nature. As a Mum I am deeply intuitive to their moods and emotional needs and know when a hug or a listening ear will work wonders. I’m sure this carries over to my other relationships as well as when conducting Tarot readings.
2. How has tarot helped you with your parenting?
There have been times when I have consulted the cards for insight into a situation concerning one of my children. Sometimes the cards have highlighted an angle I had not considered. Also, a large part of Tarot reading is about trusting and listening to your intuition. At one point years ago I realised I should never dismiss my children’s intuition either. Now, if I am asked “What’s wrong Mummy?” I may not give details but will at least acknowledge that I am upset rather than replying with a “Nothing, I’m fine Sweetheart!”… A child’s intuition is so strong, and should be nurtured.
3. What advice would you give new Moms?
Well, some advice, not so much for new Mums, cause babies require constant care and prompt attention, but for mothers of young children, and for myself too, cause I am yet to heed it… If you live Tarot the way I do, try to balance it with your role as a Mum… So many times I have been absorbed in a Tarot book, deck or reading only to look up and realise that bath hasn’t been run, the dinner not started or that it is past their bedtime. Will I ever learn? LOL.
