In this Anatomy of a Reading episode, I’m walking you through how I blend astrology and tarot in a way that actually supports the reading instead of cluttering it. My approach is astrology-centered, meaning I’m paying attention to the astrological correspondences that already live inside the cards—especially when I want clearer timing, a stronger “seasonal” feel, or a more specific lens for what the querent is moving through. I share the resources I use to keep things grounded and consistent, like my Tarot & Astrology reference chart and Corrine Kenner’s Tarot and Astrology. If you’re curious about decans, I also point you toward Marlene Theresa’s decan series, because decans can add a really helpful layer when you’re working with the minors and want to understand the texture of an energy (not just the headline). The big takeaway is that you don’t need to be an expert astrologer to start—pick one correspondence system, practice with it repeatedly, and let it deepen your relationship with the cards over time.
