After several years as a tarot consultant, I've decided to give up my office space and to ramp down my tarot biz.
The office decision is a logistical one. I've loved being in my adorable, serene office in Somerville for the last 3.5 years, but now that I've moved to Brookline it takes me 1.5 hours to get there by public transportation. And now that I'm paying for my own apartment, rather than living with a roommate, I really need the money I've been spending on office rent.
The decision to dial down the tarot biz itself has been a slower and more emotional process. Tarot has been an important part of my life since 1992, and I'm not planning to give it up entirely. I'll still be seeing my regular clients, and offering free readings to friends and family members when they hit a turning point or a roadblock.
But I'm a marketing professional in my day job, and I just don't feel like marketing my tarot biz as well. All my marketing creativity goes toward my gig working for a nonprofit here in Boston. I love that job, but I don't want to take it home with me.
So, I'm going to leave this blog up here as an archive of my thinking and writing about tarot over the last few years. I hope it's useful to people who have interest in tarot. I'm also happy to answer questions from other tarot practitioners or tarot fans via email (tarotation at yahoo).
Thanks for reading, and best wishes to you all!

Good luck. I tried to email you today and that explains why it bounced back. If you feel so inclined I would love to talk to you. All the best. Mary Sara
Giving up a passion like you are is not something that must be an easy choice. Best of luck.
God bless and may the best luck be with you.
