The Different Kinds of Tarot Readers (And How to Find Yours)
Not every tarot reader is the same — some offer deep soul guidance, others help you take action, and some simply hold space while you figure things out. In this post, we’ll explore the different styles of readers, so you can find the kind of support that feels just right for you.

Tarot reading is part art, part intuition, and entirely personal — each reader adds their own touch of magic, style, and heart to the cards they share. No two readers are quite the same.
Some are deep and mystical, others are practical and grounded. Some like to explore the big soul stuff, while others gently help you untangle whatever's been weighing on your mind.
And the beautiful part is — there’s no one “right” way. Just the right fit for you and where you are.
So, if you’ve ever wondered what kind of tarot reading might suit you best, here’s a little guide to the different types of readers you might come across — and how they can support you.
🌙 The Mystic
This reader leans into the unseen and unknown. They’re tuned into energy, symbolism, dreams, and sometimes even messages from beyond the veil. The reading might feel like stepping into a quiet temple or stargazing with a wise old soul.
You might enjoy this if you're looking for spiritual insight, energetic clarity, or a sense of deeper connection with the universe.
🪄 The Guide
Gentle, thoughtful, and grounded. This reader helps you make sense of your situation and find your way forward — not by telling you what to do, but by helping you hear yourself. The reading becomes a conversation, full of curiosity and small, meaningful shifts.
You might enjoy this if you're at a crossroads or just need some gentle guidance and space to breathe.
✨ The Healer
Some readers naturally hold space for emotional release and inner transformation. The cards help uncover patterns, old wounds, or tender parts of you that want to be seen and gently held. There may be journaling, energy work, or just a deep exhale.
You might enjoy this if you’re doing inner work, healing from something, or wanting to reconnect with your own strength and softness.
🔥 The Coach
Practical and purposeful, this reader helps you move forward with intention. They may offer prompts, tools, or next steps, blending insight with action. Their readings often leave you feeling clearer, focused, and ready to take the next step (even if it’s a small one).
You might enjoy this if you’re working toward a goal, craving clarity, or feeling a bit stuck.
🌿 The Soul Seeker
This reader loves diving into the “big stuff” — your purpose, your path, your soul’s unfolding. They may weave in past life themes, soul contracts, or intuitive messages to help you reconnect with who you truly are underneath it all.
You might enjoy this if you’re feeling lost or curious about the deeper meaning behind your life’s patterns and possibilities.
🪞 The Mirror Holder
Kind, calm, and reflective — this reader doesn’t rush you. Instead, they offer a space to see yourself more clearly. Their readings feel like a warm light being switched on inside you — not overwhelming, just gently illuminating what was always there.
You might enjoy this if you already have some sense of what’s going on, but need a loving nudge, a moment of validation, or a reminder that you already hold the answers.
So, What Kind of Reader Am I?
If I had to put myself in a little basket (preferably woven and lined with moss), I’d say I sit somewhere between a guide, a mirror, and a gentle healer. I read with an open heart, a curious mind, and a belief that you are wiser than you know.
I’m not here to predict your future or tell you what to do. I’m here to walk beside you for a while — helping you hear yourself more clearly, trust what’s rising, and take the next step with a little more peace in your pocket.
How Do You Know Who’s Right for You?
Sometimes you just feel it.
Their words feel safe. Their energy makes you exhale.
You don’t feel judged, rushed, or pressured — just supported.
Tarot isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about coming home to yourself — one card, one breath, one question at a time.
And if I can be that kind of reader for you?
I’d be honoured.
Happy Tarot Adventures,
