The rumours are true… I’m a Freak

And that’s exactly why I read tarot.

I’m Katrina.

I’ve been called weird for as long as I can remember.

Growing up in a regional town, I didn’t fit in. I was the kid asking confronting questions, challenging the status quo, thinking too deeply about things and seeing the world differently from the people around me. I was labelled “intense”, “confronting”, “too much”. My mind seemed to work in a fundamentally different way than my peers’. Over time, I realised that being a “freak” wasn’t something I needed to grow out of. The things that made me weird were also the things that allowed me to understand people and the world around me on a very deep level.

My connection to tarot comes from that same place. I’ve always been drawn to what lies beneath the surface - the patterns we repeat, the stories we tell ourselves and the hidden wisdom we already carry within us. Tarot provides a space to explore what's unfolding in your life, what paths are available to you and what lies at the root of your concerns. The insights and revelations that tarot provides can be used to redirect you from self-destructive paths and re-centre you onto a path of alignment.

I have been tarot’s student for several years, and have been taught by the cards how to walk the way of tarot. With the wisdom of tarot as my teacher, I have learned about the psychospiritual cycles we all continuously experience as humans along ‘The Fool’s Journey’. Bringing the concepts of tarot into physical actions is a key focus in my sessions. Thinking, talking, even telling you your ‘future’ - on their own, these things can do very little in helping you grow or complete your current cycle. It is movement that creates change - actively applying new concepts in your real life. So don’t be surprised if I assign you some homework after a session!

To me, tarot isn’t about fortune telling. The cards can identify where your current mindset, plans or behaviours are leading you towards; however, should you choose to change paths, your tarot spread will change with you. You always have agency; the choices you make matter more than any intervention of fate. Tarot can guide you towards self-awareness and confidence in your choices, rather than feeling lost or relying on fate to decide your future for you. That's the kind of reading I offer - practical insight that helps you understand yourself more deeply and navigate life with greater clarity, autonomy and self-trust.

I see tarot as a mirror of the subconscious, whereupon you can see the deepest parts of yourself reflected in the cards and receive information and guidance from the primordial wisdom that lies within you. I believe that tarot’s greatest value lies in its function as a bridge between our conscious awareness and the soup of unconscious material within us. Hence, I see myself as a translator between realms, and I seek to help people find their way back to themselves.

Born weird. Stayed weird.

What draws me to tarot is its sharp honesty, unusual sense of humour and unwavering hope. Tarot has an inherent wisdom, always nudging you towards alignment with your whole, true self. It can be confronting at times, but it is always in service of your growth.

If you’re looking for deep insight that may challenge you, but can create real change when applied in your life, I invite you to book a session at The Freak to explore your path through the wisdom of tarot.
