Hi!

I'm Tara...

I am guide who supports people in shadow work, self-mastery, and archetypal power. I also love writing. You can find my essays here.

My work is to ask you the right questions to unlock self-knowledge that frees you. My modalities are the I Ching, gene keys, tarot, astrology, and depth psychology. Here are some of my core beliefs:

  • talking about a path is not walking that path

  • the shadow contains energy, gifts and revelations

  • archetypes are living energies

  • it's better to focus on liberation than validation

  • the tarot is a mirror of our mind

  • sacred union means union with God/ Immortal Beloved

  • past lives are real

If you'd like to get a feel for my voice/ style you can watch this video.

xo,
Tara
