“I have read cards since 1988. The question I hear most often is still the same one. Not what you’d expect.”
I stepped back into each of the cards I created all those years ago. I challenged what I really believed — the secrets I had already forgotten. I needed to revisit the keys.
The deck you are reading with is my own — designed over years to reflect the symbolism I have worked with my whole life. Divided into the Major Arcana (22 cards representing major life themes) and Minor Arcana (56 cards reflecting daily experiences), tarot offers a mirror to your inner world.
What is tarot and how does it work?
Tarot is 78 cards — 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana — used as a reflective tool. A reader draws cards in response to a question and interprets them in context. It is not about predicting the future but uncovering what is already known at some level.
What is the Major Arcana?
The 22 cards of the Major Arcana represent the significant forces and archetypes in human experience — from The Fool beginning a journey to The World representing completion. They are the most powerful cards in the deck.
Can I learn tarot myself?
Yes — start with the Major Arcana. Learn one card at a time. The Knowledge Base on this site walks through every card with Paul’s own interpretations. The Keys section above gives a 2-minute journey through each of the 22 major cards.
How is a live reading different from a free online reading?
A free reading offers a starting point. A live reading brings human intuition, experience and real-time dialogue — going into the specifics of your situation, the timing, the context, what to actually do next.
The cards point the direction. A live reading takes you through the door. Our readers bring 35 years of practice to your question.
