I was inspired by @MarleneTheresa 's video on #everydaycarrytarot to talk about how and why I choose the decks that go out with me (almost) every day. Technically, it is not a video response because I don't need a selection of decks I can carry in my bag to accompany me every day. My personal tarot practice is a bit different :-) Intrigued? Watch to find out what I mean ;-)
English is (clearly) not my native language! You'll see my ability to make sense go up and down throughout the video, depending mostly on how tired I am :-) That's life with a chronic illness! Please bear with me 🧡
