The Reluctant Tarot Reader: Adventures in the Gypsy Trade

Description

Review Raw, deep, poetic and beautiful! Raven Mardirosian is a rebel with a true cause. ~ Theresa Reed, The Tarot Lady Raven is a wonderful writer whose prose grabs your heart, twists it and throws it back at you. You know you are getting the real deal here, someone who has really struggled with her calling and who still despairs at the misconceptions and baggage that go with the "job description". ~ Fiona Tankard, Tarot Can HelpI couldn't stop reading The Reluctant Tarot Reader and just finished it. Wow. Thank you for sharing your story. From the heart and full of insights and wisdom and honesty and universal truth. I loved every word and am sad that it's over. Raven, never stop sharing your gifts. ~ Trish Moreno, CEO, Little GiraffeThe Reluctant Tarot Reader is beautifully written, insightful, moving. Thank you. ~ Dixie Vogel, Goddess DixReading The Reluctant Tarot Reader was like touching white fire, raw sensations, memories which were preferably lost but just kept nagging in the twilight zone. I found the words burning into the electronic display. Somehow I could feel the pain it takes to write all that. ~AcquafortisThe Reluctant Tarot Reader flowed as if I was sitting across a table from you with a big cup of tea and you were not-so-simply telling me your story...conversational easy style, full of deep wisdom and metaphor...just wonderful! I really enjoyed "Steps to Being a Powerful Woman" just because its like a manifesto. I printed and put it on the bulletin board above my workbench so I can absorb it! ~ kerinrose.com Read more From the Author There are plenty of great Tarot books that teach you how to read the deck. But if you're interested in a real, no b.s. memoir about becoming a Tarot reader/healer -- or even where to land in the woo world, once you've discovered your gifts -- The Reluctant Tarot Reader is your story. I wanted a guide like this when starting out over 14 years ago; a voice that was direct, comforting and down-to-earth; a waypoint where I could rest when the woo world was just too confusing and cliquey; a book that made me feel like I've been heard. My memoir is also for those struggling to come out of their closets, whether metaphysical or sexual. I'll teach you how to find wisdom, be confident and stay healthy in a world littered with burned-out healers. It's easier than you think. Plus, you'll laugh your butt off. For the entire story of how I left evangelical Christianity to become a healer/Tarot reader in the real world, read my latest book, "Love. Sex. Tarot." that includes "The Reluctant Tarot Reader", "Just Another Crazy Cat Lady Story" and "Home: Thoughts on Belonging" into a big, bold trilogy with a new introduction.
