In a world that is becoming increasingly artificial and automated, people are craving something technology cannot truly replicate - real human connection. Not more information. Not another perfectly polished response generated in seconds. But the feeling that someone is fully present with you. That they're listening not only to what you're saying, but to what sits underneath it. That they notice the hesitation in your voice, the emotion you're holding back or the question you're not quite ready to ask. And I believe this is becoming one of the most valuable things a Tarot reader can offer. The cards may help bring a situation into view. But it's often the connection between you and the person receiving the reading that allows the deeper truth to emerge. In this third episode of our special 7-part series, we're exploring what genuine human connection looks like inside a Tarot reading - and how presence, deep listening, thoughtful questions and holding space can transform the experience you create. Episode Highlights In this episode, you'll discover: [00:22] Why genuine human connection is becoming more valuable as our world becomes increasingly automated [02:35] What a human reader can offer beyond interpreting the Tarot cards [04:22] How focusing on delivering the reading can cause you to miss what's happening with the person in front of you [05:34] Why the question someone asks may not be the question they truly need help exploring [06:32] How thoughtful questions can turn a Tarot reading into a collaborative experience [07:06] What it really means to hold space when something vulnerable emerges [08:01] The four human skills that help someone feel genuinely seen and understood [09:05] Why a clear reading method helps you create meaningful connection consistently Reflection Questions Think about the last time you read Tarot for someone else. Where did most of your attention go? Were you focused on interpreting the cards correctly and deciding what to say next? Or were you also paying attention to the person receiving the reading - their expression, their energy, their hesitation and what might have been sitting underneath their question? Where could you create more space for them to respond, reflect and become part of the reading? You might like to pull one Tarot card and ask: What skill will help me create a deeper connection in my Tarot readings? Then choose one simple way to practice that skill in your next reading. Perhaps it's pausing before you respond. Asking one more thoughtful question. Listening without preparing what you're going to say next. Or allowing a moment of silence when something important has landed. Episode Transcript Click here to read the full transcript.
