In Tarot, the four Queens are often seen as mature, self-aware expressions of their suits. But what if they were friends?
The Queen of Wands would be the charismatic one. Confident, creative and quite magnetic, she’s the friend who says, “Why not?” and books the table, starts the business or hosts the gathering. She radiates warmth and courage, encouraging the others to step into their boldest selves.
The Queen of Cups is the emotional anchor. Intuitive and compassionate, she senses when something is unsaid. She brings the tea and cake, asks the deeper questions and holds space without judgement. If the group chat goes quiet, she’s the one who checks in privately.
The Queen of Swords is perceptive and articulate. She values honesty over comfort and isn’t afraid of a difficult conversation. If someone is being treated unfairly, she’ll name it. Her clarity protects the group from drama and misunderstanding.
And then there’s the Queen of Pentacles – practical, nurturing and grounded. She remembers birthdays, feeds everyone, and quietly makes sure the bills are paid. She turns ideas into plans and plans into something sustainable.
As friends, they balance one another. The Queen of Wands sparks inspiration; the Queen of Pentacles makes it workable. The Queen of Cups softens the sharp edges of the Queen of Swords, while the Queen of Swords helps the Queen of Cups maintain healthy boundaries.
Together, they are fire, water, air and earth in harmony. Their friendship isn’t about being the same, it’s about bringing different strengths to the table. In a reading, the appearance of multiple Queens can suggest collaboration, supportive networks, or the need to integrate these aspects within yourself.

Before Halloween became about costumes, candy and plastic pumpkins, it was a night filled with mystery, bonfires and whispered beliefs about spirits walking among us.
The festival began over 2,000 years ago as Samhain (pronounced Sow-in), a Celtic celebration marking the end of harvest and the start of winter — “the darker half of the year.” People believed the boundary between the living and spirit worlds grew thin, allowing ancestors (and the odd mischievous ghost) to visit.
To protect themselves, villagers lit huge fires, wore disguises, and placed offerings outside their homes. Carved turnips (yes, turnips, not pumpkins!) were used as lanterns to scare away wandering souls — a tradition that later crossed the Atlantic and turned into the glowing jack-o’-lanterns we know today.
It was also a time for divination. Young people would peel apples to reveal the initials of future lovers, toss nuts into fires to test relationships, or use mirrors to glimpse what lay ahead. In short, Halloween has always been about seeking insight when the world turns darker and quieter.
So as October draws to a close and the nights stretch longer, it’s no wonder tarot readings feel especially powerful. After all, this is the season when intuition awakens, the veil thins, and the universe seems just a little more talkative.

Looking for something fresh and engaging for your next team-building day or corporate retreat? Tarot might be the unexpected twist that makes your event memorable.
I offer virtual readings via Zoom or WhatsApp — making it easy to bring a mystical, insightful experience to your team, no matter where they’re based. We can also play a range of interesting games using the cards. However, far from being just entertainment, tarot sessions can offer moments of clarity, creativity, and self-reflection.
Whether it’s one-to-one mini-readings or a group workshop exploring themes like intuition, decision-making or team alignment, tarot always brings something meaningful to the table. It encourages reflection, sparks conversations, and fosters connection in a way that typical corporate activities often don’t.
Best of all, it’s inclusive — no prior knowledge or belief in tarot is required – just curiosity and an open mind.
If your business values innovation, wellness or a human-centred approach to work culture, this could be the perfect fit. Think of it as a mix of mindfulness, coaching, and curiosity — with a mystical twist.

And if you’re London or Essex-based, I’d be happy to hold face-to-face sessions.
Tarot isn’t woo woo — it’s a creative thinking tool. It can help guide your team to make informed decisions, provide clarity of thought and give them a little extra fun with a solid sense of wellbeing.

Leadership isn’t just about strategy and data — it’s also about vision, intuition and timing. That’s where tarot can become a surprising asset for business owners.
Through readings with business owners – including start-ups and sole traders, I’ve seen first-hand how tarot can support them as they face tough decisions or look for clarity.
A tarot reading doesn’t predict your future, it helps you make sense of the present and determines the path you’re on. If it turns out that’s not a path you’d choose to go down, you become empowered to change direction.
A tailored tarot session can bring to the surface factors such as hidden influences, internal biases or overlooked opportunities. Think of it like a guided journalling session, except instead of staring at a blank page, you’re responding to rich imagery and symbolism designed to prompt reflection.
Business owners often carry a heavy mental load – especially SMEs, as we’re expected to deal with everything. Tarot can create a space to step back, reset and reconnect with what really matters. Whether you’re preparing for a big pitch, planning a restructure or exploring a change in focus, tarot can help reset your ‘internal compass.’
I conduct readings with busy people over Zoom or WhatsApp, making them easy to schedule into a busy calendar. They’re confidential, insightful and tailored to your professional context.
Tarot isn’t woo woo — it’s a creative thinking tool. Use it to sharpen your intuition, build resilience and make informed decisions with greater clarity.
