Tarot cards are pieces of paper with a series of symbolic art on them. That's it. Tarot READERS, though, now there's some magic. I've been reading tarot cards for 30 years (well, 29.5 technically) and I can tell you that they're not magical, mystical or otherwise. The cards are cards, and you're the one who makes them amazing. My first book, Kitchen Table Tarot, provides a down to earth, common sense approach to reading tarot cards. It also won the Independent Publisher Award for Best First Book, so that was cool. My second book, Tarot Elements: Five Readings to Reset Your Life, is coming out in the spring of 2019, and gives you five readings to help you unstick yourself in the home, heart, mind, body and soul. I live in St. Louis with my husband, Joe (who is my favorite), my kiddos and four black cats, two dogs, and our tortoise, Phil. I really, really like superhero movies and when I'm not reading or writing, I'm hanging out with my friends. I'm a lucky girl. I'm working on a tarot deck with artist, Cate Anevski, another deck with my friend Ellie, and have outlines for two more books. You can reach out to me for tarot readings at www.melissacynova.com
