Very interesting!

Oh my 🙈 Who is the artist?

May you feel restored and rejuvenated as you recover ✨

I love giving these as gifts. Of course they are also enchanted for extra herby goodness.

This summer I started taking creeping thyme flower essence to ground me in feeling my way through new beginnings in nearly every aspect of my life. Always grateful for the camaraderie of plants. If you'd like weave the magic of botanicals through your own journey, I have a new tarot offering 👇🏻🌿

A way into the unconscious mind ✨

Did an unplanned massive closet clear out this weekend which was utterly predictable behavior for Venus on the SN in Virgo.

Ugh fallow

To tap into the verdant wisdom of the natural world I have a new offering called Season of Change, just in time for the autumn equinox. Season of Change is a 45-minute Tarot reading in which we explore your current phase of growth... 🍂🍁

1. What magic is around me now?
2. What am I losing/leaving behind?
3. What am I moving towards?
4. Who/what is my guide?
5. What are the signs to look for?

Occasionally I find myself unconsciously reaching for my tarot cards and I know then they have something they want to say.

In Tarot, trees are spiritual checkpoints. They offer a space to rest, to call back one’s energy before moving through a doorway to another phase of experience.

Like Odin and the sacred Yggdrasil tree of Nordic myth, The Hanged Man is suspended from a tree before the liberation of the Death card.🧵

Remember: you are the portal.

For the Season of Change reading I'm trying out a new pay-what-you-wish model because I want it to be accessible regardless of income level. Booking dates for October thru November here:

Ooh I love all those choices!

In each corner of the card a tree with a symbol floats towards the center where there are 4 hands reaching for them.

10 of Pentacles

What are some of your favorite trees in Tarot? #TarotSky

A cloaked woman maditateds in a forest.

Spirit of Pentacles

A woman reaches for a fruit hanging from a tree. A shrouded woman with hands clasped in prayer hovers at the tree crown.

In the Mystical Dream Tarot by Janet Piedilato and illustrated by Tom Duxbury, trees are gateways to the deep, feral woods of the unconscious. They frequently illustrate the pentacles suit, where they represent the mystical made material. ⬇️
Three of Pentacles

We can read the separate vignettes as different time periods. Perhaps the elder in the foreground is recalling an earlier period of life, played out by the trio before him. We are reminded that magic is all around us, hidden in plain sight. ⬇️

Pentacle coins float amid a scene of an elderly bearded man seated with 2 dogs and a group of people. The 10 of Pentacles card from the Smith-Waite deck.

Because they have the potential to grow very old and become memorable landmarks in our daily landscape, trees help us put time into perspective. In the 10 of Pentacles we again see the Tree of Life, but in its abstract Kabbalistic form. ⬇️

A figure rests against a tree trunk while a disembodied floating hand offers a gold cup. Detail of 4 of Cups card from the Smith-Waite deck.

My favorite tree depiction might be the anchoring presence in the Four of Cups. Like Siddhartha under the Bodhi tree or Newton under the apple tree, divine intervention is at play, an awakening propelled by the natural world.⬇️

Illustration of a winged figure standing over a man in front of the tree of life and woman in front of the tree of knowledge. Detail of The Lovers card from the Smith-Waite deck.

In the Edenesque imagery of The Lovers card, the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life offer two different paths and foundations of experience.⬇️

The reading was so detailed and tuned in and I just loved receiving the temperature check and you create such a warm, lovely space! -Jesse

Amazing reading...The plant ally blew me away and tied everything together in a way that resonated deeply! -Deb

Absolutely beautiful reading...Deeply insightful, supportive, and felt so meant for me, where I’m at, and what medicine I need. So grateful! -C.

My reading with Klara offered me incredible comfort and clarity. She created such a beautiful, collaborative space—one rooted in thoughtful questions, intuitive insight, and gently anchored guidance. I felt seen, supported, and gently invited into deeper alignment with myself. I left not only clear on my next steps, but truly nourished in a way that stayed with me long after our session ended. Klara is a gifted guide and I’m so grateful for her presence. -Martina

It’s been an honor to hold this space with clients as they navigate changes as varied as migration and empty nests, to quiet calls for creativity and adventure.

I’m also trying out a new pay-what-you-wish model for this reading because I want to make it accessible regardless of income level. Book your session using the link below and I’ll reach out with a donation link where you can contribute an amount that feels comfortable ⬇️

Perhaps you are expanding and feeling into new pathways, or releasing and paring down to rest and center. We’ll consider the energetic supports that are available to you as you move through change and the botanical allies that may offer anchoring and inspiration.

The batter had 1/2 tsp each of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and a pinch or 2 of nutmeg, cloves. Then the chai tea had its own spice blend. I brewed it strong in 1/4 cup water and added 3/4 cups milk.
