Phyllis is a third time guest to the Secret Witch Show, and in today’s episode, we dive into all things divination. We explored what divination is, and how it can help sensitive souls heal and connect to your soul, exploring how everyone has a magic within and everyone is connected to the natural world - and how tarot can help you open to your gifts and fulfil your unique purpose.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

Tarot is a tool that guides us home to ourselves - that helps us heal, reconnect to our wellbeing and soul; and it does this by providing answers to questions that help us access our own inner guidance system
We learn, through tarot, to access our own wisdom, rather than to outsource our power to others - like some patriarchal models. The more we practise tarot, the more we learn to cultivate our own inner wisdom
We can also access our inner wisdom by communing with the spirits of nature and see what they reveal to us. These spirits show us that we are never alone; we are constantly surrounded by wisdom and guidance - if we are open to receive its signs and synchronicities. Nature's magic is organised in a way to support us and heal us and help us and guide us and all we have to do is pay attention and participate
We can sometimes feel that there’s a fight between logic and magic, when we come to heal ourselves magically, and the truth is, there’s a way that we can embrace both - it’s not an either/or
We each have unique soul gifts, and the route to finding them is through healing ourselves first, because it is in our wounds that our gifts are found.
