Everything You Know About Tarot Is About to Change, Are You Ready? Aug 23, 2026

AI can pull the cards, interpret the spread and deliver personalized guidance in seconds.

So why would anyone still pay a human Tarot reader?

That's the question every Tarot reader needs to be asking right now.

Because if your value comes from knowing what the cards mean, AI has already caught up.

It knows every card. Every symbol. Every traditional interpretation. And it can generate a reading faster and cheaper than any human ever could.

But knowing the cards was never the whole value of a great Tarot reading.

The real value is in what happens around the cards.

It's how you listen for what isn't being said. The questions you ask. The truth you gently bring into the light. The space you hold when emotions rise. And the way you help someone stop looking outside themselves for answers and reconnect with their own wisdom.

AI isn't bringing an end to human Tarot reading. It's raising the standard.

Across this special 7-part series, we'll explore what that new standard looks like, how the world of Tarot is changing and the distinctly human skills that will make you more relevant, valuable and trusted in the years ahead.

And in this first episode, we're starting with the shift forcing every Tarot reader to evolve: AI.

You'll discover what it does remarkably well, where it fundamentally falls short and why the future of Tarot may belong to the readers who become more human, not more automated.

Episode Highlights

In this episode, you'll discover:

[01:25] Why an AI Tarot reading can feel surprisingly accurate and personal
[04:26] The hidden risk of receiving guidance that reflects your existing story back to you
[05:22] What a skilled human reader can notice that AI may miss
[08:17] Why knowing more card meanings is no longer enough to distinguish you as a reader
[09:02] The human skills that will make Tarot readers more relevant, valuable and trusted
[10:22] How the role of the Tarot reader is evolving from delivering answers to helping people access their own wisdom

Reflection Questions

Have you used AI for a Tarot reading?

What did it do well? What felt convincing? And where did you sense that something important was missing?

Now bring the focus back to your own Tarot practice: Where are you being invited to evolve as a reader?

Perhaps it's trusting your intuition more deeply. Perhaps it's learning how to guide another person through an emotional reading. Or perhaps it's moving beyond prediction and helping people reconnect with their own power and inner authority.

You might like to pull a Tarot card and ask: What quality am I being called to develop as I step into the future of Tarot reading?

BTP220: Tarot Archetypes for Personal Growth with Chelsey May Orsmond Sep 24, 2024

Have you ever pulled a Major Arcana card and noticed its message playing out in your life for days—or even weeks—after?

Here's why…

Each of the 22 Major Arcana archetypes highlight major themes that occur throughout our lives.

When we tap into those themes, we start seeing how they show up for us in reality… which helps us see ourselves more clearly.

And when we're able to feel seen and witnessed through the lessons of the cards, we can then take action to make positive change.

Healer and Tarot practitioner Chelsey May Orsmond has built a thriving business around helping people transform their lives through Tarot in this way.

In our conversation together, Chelsey shares with me how she harnesses the Major Arcana as a potent tool for personal growth and development.

BTP218: Harness the Full Moon's Energy for Effortless Manifestation with This Tarot Spread Sep 10, 2024

If you've ever experienced burnout…

Or feel like you're constantly striving because you think you have to hustle to achieve your goals… I have some good news!

There's a better way.

You don't have to push hard and force your way to success, despite what society tells us. In fact, we can actually achieve a lot MORE by harmonizing with the natural rhythms––like the seasons, the menstrual cycle, and the monthly lunar cycle.

Because when we do this, we feel calmer, more balanced, and have more energy.

And what do all of these cycles have in common?

They have periods of GROWTH followed by REST.

As humans, we are not immune to these cycles (as much as we hate to admit it!).

So the natural cycles encourage us not only to take action… but also to take intentional rest so we can bring our goals to life in a more sustainable way.

For years, I've been manifesting with the guidance of the lunar cycles. And I love this practice so much that I've created a Tarot spread around manifesting with the moon!

Tune in for:

[2:11] How to manifest FAST using each of the 4 unique cycles of the moon

BTP217: Faith, Fear, and Tarot with Monica Vejar Sep 03, 2024

Sometimes, our soul's desires just won't leave us alone until we listen to them.

This was what happened for Certified Biddy Tarot Advisor Monica Vejar when she first discovered Tarot as a teen.

BTP92: How to Create Your Own Tarot Spreads Sep 18, 2017

Every time we do a Tarot reading, we have a choice.

We can think of a spread to use. Maybe we look into our book and go, "OK, what's a funky little spread I could do?" Or we jump onto Pinterest perhaps and look up Tarot spreads, and think, "Well, which one will I use today?"

Or we can start creating our own spreads. And this is clearly my favourite way, because it allows you to focus on the heart of the question. So today's podcast is all about creating your very own Tarot spreads.

BTP 91: The Lumina Tarot with Lauren Aletta from Inner Hue Sep 11, 2017

Today, we're speaking with Lauren Aletta from Inner Hue. Lauren is the creator of two Tarot decks: the Lumina Tarot and the Connected & Free Alchemist's Oracle.

Now, I am a big fan of modern-looking Tarot decks. I believe that modern decks created by independent artists help bring new people to Tarot – and I'm all about bringing Tarot into the mainstream.

Lauren recently sent me both the Connected & Free oracle deck and the Lumina Tarot. The Connected & Free deck is designed to support you in connecting with your own inner wisdom, soul guidance and natural intuitive abilities to navigate the landscape of life. It has 50 oracle cards held safely together in a cute rustic mandala drenched brown box with the 133pg Guidebook that offers not only each card's meaning but also crystal suggestions for an added energetic boost. Within the 50 cards are also 8 chakra cards to potentially highlight any energetic blocks or expansions are occurring. This is the second edition of the Oracle cards.

The Lumina Tarot is also now on its' second edition – and it melds animal magick, archetypal energy and symbolism together in potent visual imagery that will support you in accessing your own intuitive abilities. It comes with a 185-page guidebook and offers both yin & yang, light & shadow.

I know these decks have been quite popular on Instagram because they're just gorgeous!

Let's get into it.

BTP90: How to Use Significator Cards in Your Tarot Readings Sep 04, 2017

On today's episode of the Biddy Tarot Podcast, we're talking about significator cards and how you can start using them in your Tarot readings.

Now, I have to be honest: I do not use significator cards in my readings unless I'm doing maybe the Celtic Cross, where it's actually part of the reading, because I find that the Tarot reading in and of itself gives me enough information. However, I know that for a lot of people who are learning to read Tarot or doing some more work with Tarot, this whole idea of significators certainly comes up at one stage or another. And I know many of you have questions around what they are, how you can use them, how you choose them, who chooses them, and so on.

Today's episode is really about giving you all of that information, so you can play around, have a go with it, and decide if using significator card is right for you.

In this episode, you'll learn:

All about significator cards
Why you'd want to use a significator
How to choose a significator
How to connect the significator in a Tarot reading

BTP89: Visionary Cards with Noa Knafo Aug 28, 2017

On today's Biddy Tarot podcast, I am speaking with Ben and Noa Knafo, who are behind the Visionary Card deck, and really, this is just a small, small sample of their amazing intuitive artwork that they create.

Now, Noa is the artist, and Ben is the maker and the doer, getting it out into the world. Noa's art focuses on spirituality and on how the world is right now, but in ways that we cannot necessarily see. Her paintings contain certain energies which allow viewers to experience these realities in similar ways, each in their own personal ways.

Her Visionary Cards are extremely unique. Each card comes with its own description that links to a knowledge hub, where you are invited to not only read further into each meaning, but also to become part of the meaning by adding your own insights.

I'm super excited to talk to Noa today about the process of creating this deck, and her beautiful artwork. Now, let's get into it!

BTP85: Tarot and Mindfulness with Lisa Freinkel Jul 31, 2017

In this podcast, we chat with Dr. Lisa Freinkel, PhD, a professor, dean and vice provost at the University of Oregon who founded the University's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program. I first came across Lisa's work at the Northwest Tarot Symposium where she taught a session on using Tarot to build a mindfulness practice.

I first came across Lisa's work at the Northwest Tarot Symposium earlier on in this year, 2017. At the event, she taught a session on this topic. I was super, super fascinated by how we could incorporate more of mindfulness in our Tarot practice. And vice versa—how does Tarot help us become more mindful?

In today's conversation, you'll hear Lisa talk more about mindfulness and how you can bring the techniques of mindfulness into your Tarot practice. The really neat thing is it's not complicated. It's not complex; you don't have to master all of these different steps or processes. It is, in fact, very simple and really about just bringing your attention back into the now.

BTP84: Coming 'Home' to Ourselves: Reconnecting with Our Inner Wisdom Jul 24, 2017

This podcast episode is different from all the others I've done. Instead of having a distinct structure, I wanted to get real with you. I wanted to get into a space where I could share some of the thoughts that are prevalent for me right now.

This podcast is about coming 'home' to ourselves using the Tarot and reconnecting to our inner wisdom.

You see, before religions were invented, we HAD to rely on our own innate wisdom to guide us through life. But now, instead of learning how to trust ourselves, we've put so much of our trust into other people—our experts, our authorities, our religious figures, and so on.

And we can certainly see this in the Tarot space. We see folks going to Tarot readers and expecting to get all the answers or a silver bullet to solve their problems.

What I want is to bring that trust back into ourselves, reclaiming our own inner wisdom, and knowing that we have all the answers within us. And I think Tarot can certainly guide us in that way.

So join me in this extra special podcast episode, where I talk about this concept of coming 'home' to ourselves and how we can use Tarot and our own inner wisdoms to guide us in life.

BTP83: From the Archives: My Never-Fail 3-Card Tarot Spreads Jul 17, 2017

This week's podcast episode is a popular one from our archives. It's the only 3-card Tarot spreads you'll ever need for your Tarot readings

When I first started learning to read Tarot, I felt overwhelmed by complicated Tarot spreads like the 10-card Celtic Cross or the 13-card Horoscope spread.

So I went on a mission to find the very best 3-card Tarot spreads to keep it simple, but also get deep insight into my life with Tarot as a guide.

In this episode, I'm going to share my very best, never-fail 3 card Tarot spreads. Plus, as a special treat, I'm going to do a couple of sample readings with these spreads so you can get a sense of how they work.

Here's what I'll cover:

How keeping it simple with just 3 cards can give even more insight than more complicated Tarot spreads
How to handle a general reading with ease and grace
How to uncover the dynamics of a relationship with just 3 cards
What Tarot spread to use when faced with a difficult decision

BTP82: Modern Tarot with Michelle Tea Jul 10, 2017

Today, we're speaking with Michelle Tea, author of the book Modern Tarot, Connecting with Your Higher Self through the Wisdom of the Cards. (Published by Harper-Collins). With her unique insight, inviting pop sensibility, and wicked humor, Modern Tarot is a fascinating journey through the cards that teaches how to use this tradition to connect with our higher selves.

Michelle and I share the same desire to bring a modern approach to Tarot. Whether you're a committed seeker or a digital-age skeptic—or perhaps a little of both—Tea's essential guide opens the power of tarot to you. Modern Tarot doesn't require you to believe in the supernatural or narrowly focus on the tarot as a divination tool. Tea instead provides incisive descriptions of each of the 78 cards in the tarot system—each illustrated in the charmingly offbeat style of cartoonist Amanda Verwey—and introduces specially designed card-based rituals that can be used with any deck to guide you on a path toward radical growth and self-improvement.

In this podcast episode you'll learn:

Michelle's philosophy on modern Tarot and how it can become more mainstream
Her vision for Tarot in the future
Her process for writing her book Modern Tarot

In today's episode, you'll learn:

Ten ideas for how you can use this process for yourself

BTP78: The Reluctant Tarot Reader with Raven Mardirosian Jun 12, 2017

I am so excited today to be talking with Raven Mardirosian. Raven dreamed of being a missionary, a vet, or an English teacher, and becoming a professional Tarot reader never crossed her mind.

However, she went from being a staunch, born-again Christian and promising academic to life in the woo-woo world. Since become a professional Tarot reader, and she's authored thirteen books, and many of them include Tarot. She currently offers her gifts through Tarot and Reiki sessions, consulting, and classes on her website at ShivayaWellness.com.

I think so many of us can relate to being reluctant Tarot readers.

And if you've ever had that question on your mind about whether Tarot and Christianity can come together, or if they are really poles apart, Raven has certainly gone through that experience firsthand, so you'll love to hear her perspective on how those two relate.

In this podcast episode, you'll learn:

How a nun at a Catholic retreat introduced Raven to the Tarot
The intersection – and separation – of Christianity and Tarot, religion and spirituality

BTP39: Tarot by Numbers with Kari Samuels Aug 15, 2016

One of the fastest ways to learn Tarot is to understand basic numerology.

When you know what the numbers 1 to 10 signify, you can start to de-code the 40 numbered Minor Arcana cards and you gain deeper insights into the Major Arcana cards.

So in this podcast, I invited intuitive counsellor and numerology expert, Kari Samuels, to talk about how to master the Tarot by numbers.

In this episode, Kari and I discuss:

What the numbers tell us about the Tarot cards… and what the Tarot cards tell us about the numbers
How to create a personal connection with the numbers in the Tarot
The significance of the numbers from 1 to 10
How to look for meaningful patterns in your Tarot readings using the numbers

BTP30: Co-Creating a Tarot Reading Jun 13, 2016

A common perception among many first-time Tarot reading clients – and even readers – is that the Tarot reader will do most of the talking, telling them what the cards mean and what to expect in the future. But, as we'll learn today, it doesn't always have to be this way.

In fact, as Tarot readers, we can 'co-create' a Tarot reading with our clients.

What is co-creation exactly? It's about bringing the client into the Tarot reading process and facilitating a two-way conversation about what the reading means for them.

Now, there is one professional Tarot reader and teacher who does this to perfection – James Wells. He's a Toronto-based tarot consultant who uses one-to-one consultations and group experiences to help people remember their innate creativity, wisdom, resourcefulness, wholeness, and personal power.

In this podcast interview, you'll learn:

How, at just 12 years old, a book about ESP started James' life-long journey with Tarot
The powerful questions James asks the Tarot on a daily basis, to guide him towards clear decision-making
Exactly how James works with his clients to 'co-create' the reading and deliver specific insight and actionable advice
Why you want the client to do most of the talking during a Tarot reading – and no, it's not about being a lazy Tarot reader!
How Tarot brings people back to their 'wholeness' in a profound and impactful way

Plus, so much more! Let's dive in…

BTP29: Tapping into the Individual and Collective Wisdom of Tarot Jun 06, 2016

Tarot – it's where individual and collective wisdom meet.

Individually, we connect with our intuition and subconscious mind to interpret the cards. And collectively, we connect with a group consciousness that has evolved over many years and lifetimes, and we tap into our combined knowledge of the cards.

Together, this individual and collective wisdom creates a powerful connection to the Tarot, enabling us to commune with the Divine in beautiful ways.

In this podcast, you'll learn:

What individual and collective wisdom really means for Tarot
Why both are important in enriching your connection with the cards and the Divine
How we can integrate individual and collective wisdom into our Tarot readings

We are all looking for our tribe. A place where we belong. Where we feel a soul connection with others. Where we are heard, supported and nurtured.

BTP25: Coming Out of the Tarot Closet May 09, 2016

It's the question we all face as Tarot readers – when, if ever, do I come out of the Tarot closet?

For some folks, it's a no-brainer. They love reading the Tarot, and their friends and family are completely supportive and even appreciative of their talents.

But for others, it's not quite as easy. Perhaps their profession prevents them from openly practicing Tarot or their community perceives the Tarot as evil, and so they remain hidden in the shadows.

In this podcast, I talk about coming out of the Tarot closet – when to do it, how to do it, and what you need to consider as you're doing it. I also share my personal story about how I eventually came out of the closet – and it wasn't as easy as you might think.

BTP21: How to Succeed as a Young Tarot Reader with Fiona Benjamin Apr 11, 2016

When I first started to read Tarot, I was just a fresh-faced 18 year old. By my early 20s, I was ready to start reading for other people but there was just one problem. I didn't look like most other Tarot readers, who were at least 20 years older than me!

Well, that's why I invited my beautiful guest, Benebell Wen, to join us on the Biddy Tarot Podcast. She is one smart lady. When she's not practicing law in her regular day job as an attorney, she's busy blending tarot, feng shui, the I Ching, numerology, and Chinese and Hellenistic astrology in her spiritual practice. She is also the author of the quintessential Tarot book, "Holistic Tarot: An Integrative Approach to Using Tarot for Personal Growth".

In this episode, Benebell and I discuss:

The ins and outs of being a Tarot reader AND a corporate lawyer
How to blend the left and right brain to master the art of Tarot
What 'divination' really means in a Tarot reading
Why it's essential to ground yourself before a reading
The exact techniques Benebell uses to gain personal insight from the Tarot cards

And so much more! Let's go…

BTP3: The Science of Intuition with Mary Greer Jan 11, 2016

As Tarot readers, we pride ourselves on being able to connect with our intuition when reading the Tarot cards.

But are we really connecting with intuition, or simply seeing what we (or our clients) want to see in the cards?
