Hi,
thank you for visiting my website.
I am currently on vacations, so I will not see clients until July. If you would like to book an appointment you can let me know using the contact form, or by emailing me at [email protected].
It might take me a bit to see your message and get back to you, but I will.
Also, I normally post on Face Book and Instagram every Monday and Saturday, but through my vacations, I will post less and when I can.
Have a great Summer!
Anna
Hi there,
I have had the privilege of teaching Tarot for many years, and I hope to continue to do so for many more.
If you are looking to see if I have any classes scheduled, please scroll to the bottom of the page, otherwise continue reading.
Why study Tarot with me? There are many good Tarot teachers out there. So why me?
Well it depends on what you are looking for.
I offer my Tarot classes in person, to small groups.
I also offer on going support after the classes are done. I am the host of the Guelph Tarot Group on Meet Up.
Once a month I host Playing with Tarot, in person. At these meetings people with a love for Tarot come together to ask questions, offer answers, share eureka moments, talk Tarot and do readings. Playing with Tarot meetings are fun, and we all learn from picking each other brain, listening to how we come to our own interpretations.
My Tarot classes are divided in three courses that build on each other.
Tarot 1 is a two hour class where I teach you to access the cards through three tools, that way you don’t have to memorize each card.
Also, in Tarot 1 you learn how the cards come together to make a story, not a list of key words.
In Tarot 2 you learn all the Major Arcana, as well as the Minor Arcana ace to ten. This is two five hour classes over two days. Tarot 1 is a requirement to take this class, since all my lessons are taught using the three tools learned in Tarot 1.
Tarot 3, the Court cards. This is a three hour class where you get to know the Pages, Knights, Queens and Kings of the four suits. This is a fun class that uses our imagination, and everything else we learned. We will be doing lots of readings. if you already know how to read the cards, but struggle with the court cards, you can take this class after taking Tarot 1.
If you would like to register, but no dates are scheduled, please send an email to [email protected]
I will put you on my students waiting list, and I will contact you next time I am ready to teach.
Thank you.
Tarot party
Hello there!
Last night I had the pleasure to do another successful Tarot party.
I had the privilege to read for eight amazing ladies. I had a great time working with these young, fun, and welcoming women.
Tarot parties can add some excitement and fun to any gathering.
Are you planning to host a birthday party, a stag and doe, new years eve, or a girl’s night in ?
Give me a call, I will be happy to explain how it works.
The Highly anticipated Witches’ Ball was a success and I had a great time.
Two hours of fast Tarot readings for fun, amazing ladies.
The mood at the beautiful Elora Brewery was full of excitement.
Everyone working or attending the event was encouraged to dress up for the occasion, which gave me the perfect excuse to buy a new, fun Halloween costume.
I am very grateful to Kathie Cher of Ruby Sage Inspiration for the soul for organizing the event.
I had a wonderful time meeting the clients and the other readers.
Walking to the car after the event I couldn’t help but notice the beauty of Elora at night, gracefully decked for Halloween. It felt magical.
Hi everyone.
I am offering Reiki again. I know it has been a while, since the beginning of the pandemic, to be exact.
Anyway, yesterday I gave my first treatment and it was beautiful to be holding that amazingly peaceful space again.
I am glad to be back, with obvious precautions of course.
I hope to see you soon.
Tarot parties are back!
I am very happy to say that Tarot parties are back on my list of services.
The pandemic had put a stop to that for a very long time.
Well, as you can probably tell from the photo we took at the end of the party, or at least to the Tarot portion of it, we all had a wonderful time.
All the ladies were amazing, not all of them are in the picture. It was my absolute privilege working with them all, they had great energy.
I would like to thank them for giving me permission to share the photo, I appreciate it.
Take away from this post? Tarot can be a great addition to a party. Many precautions were taken given that COVID-19 is still with us, but life is short and Summer is even shorter.
I want to build more happy memories to sustain me through the long Winter and this one was a great start.
More information on how to book a Tarot party with me can be found here Why do I like Tarot parties? and here Services & Fees
I woke up in a reflective mood this morning.
At this time of the year, when the change of season is all around us, it becomes easy for me to feel the need to slow down and ponder.
November 1st growing up was the time when my family and I would go to the cemetery to pay respect to the loved ones we had lost.
There we would run into plenty of relatives and our bonds would be re energized.
Around this time of the year, I like to remember those I loved and miss.
During my Halloween reflections I like to ponder on how I have changed and grown through the years.
Today I tried a new Tarot spread I found on http://www.interrobangtarot.com
It is called The Samhain Tarot Spread.
It only requires six cards, but I found it very effective.
What is your favorite spread to use at this time of year?
Hello again.
I have kept a very low profile for the past several months.
2020 was stressful for everyone and I was no exception. Some personal health issues drained my energy and I had to focus on me. I am now doing fine and I am eager to reconnect with my readers, students and clients.
Due to the pandemic we are all forced to do things differently and remotely.
I am old school and and low tech.
I am familiar with face book Messenger, WhatsApp and face time. We can do Tarot readings on those platforms and of course by phone.
I have used Zoom, but I need to do more research before feeling confident enough to offer classes and Tarot Meet Ups on that platform, but I am working on it.
Please tell me what you would like to learn.
Reversals?
Elements?
How to pose a good Tarot question?
Would you like to learn specific Tarot spreads?
Would you like to learn how to build your own?
Are you interested in taking Tarot 1, 2 and 3 ?
Would you like to focus on the images in the cards and let them speak to you?
I am all ears! Talk to me and I will know which courses I should prepare and when I am ready I will announce them.
I have read so many books in 2020, I have learnt so much that I am eager to share
Tarot readings on the porch.
Hello everyone!
It has been a while! During this crazy times I have kept a low profile and I stopped my in person readings and Reiki sessions.
Months have passed, we have a better idea of what we are dealing with and the situation in Guelph is fairly good, therefore I have good news.
I am offering Tarot readings in person once again. In order to comply with safety guidelines I am not working from my office. The room is too small to keep the two metres distance.
Tarot readings on the deck.
According to the weather and where the sun is at the time of the appointment, I will be reading from my deck in the back, my porch in the front or in my dining room.
Also for safety reasons I will be the only person touching the cards.
Of course I remain available for readings on Messenger, Face time and by phone. You can book me for a 30 or 60 minute Tarot reading.
In person readings are one hour.
I hope to see you soon, be safe, enjoy the Summer and contact me if you have any questions.

In January 2019 Wisdom and Healing reached the important milestone of ten years in business.
Mind you, I had been on the Tarot path for twenty two years before I felt ready to read for strangers and charge them for my interpretation.
What can I say? I am a Virgo. I was a perfectionist and the last thing I wanted to do was to embarrass myself.
True to be told, I was young when I took my first Tarot course.
At the time I was busy living, exploring and having fun.
My deck followed me wherever I went, but I was perfectly fine not touching the cards for months.
It was somewhere around the mid 1990’s that I became serious in my Tarot studies.
By January 2009 I had recently moved to my current home and I was finally ready to call myself a Tarot reader.
I remember how nervous I was reading for my first paying client.
He was a total stranger. I remember trying to put a positive spin on the 10 of Swords. I was not ready yet to give bad news.
I am fairly positive I did not answer correctly that specific question, but I believe the reading overall was good and helpful.
Of course I have changed and grown a lot over the last ten years.
I used to read only for specific questions. Now I can and do general readings also.
I now use reversals. I struggled with them for a very long time.
I am happy to have been brave enough to embrace my passion for Tarot.
I have met many wonderful people along the way and I have grown a lot.
Now I do my best to share what I know and I remain open to learn more each and every day.
I am very grateful to my clients and students.
Thank you.
Welcome to 2019
which is a Universal year 3.
In Tarot language 2019 is the year of the Hanged man (12) and the Empress (3).
What does it all mean?
In Numerology when we talk about Universal year, we speak about the opportunities and the challenges coming at a world level.
By contrast, a Personal year is about you.
As I have written in the past, think of the Universal year like the ocean and the personal year like your own little island in it.
If you are new to Numerology, I suggest you read some of my old posts. You could start with https://wisdomandhealing.ca/calculate-personal-year/ and https://wisdomandhealing.ca/personal-year-and-universal-year-number/
By 2019 being a Universal year 3, we should see some progress.
The opportunity is there to lift up the collective mood and play nicely.
We crave joy.
Communication improves, as well as creativity.
Let’s bring in the cards to look deeper.
The Hanged Man from Universal Tarot.
The Hanged Man, Major Arcanum 12, suggests that progress will come at a slow pace.
It is a year that requires patience, the willingness to sacrifice and to wait things out.
The Hanged Man can also bring us the opportunity to change course.
When we take the time to truly observe, listen and reflect, we may surprisingly shift perspective and subsequently change our plans and direction.
12 reduces as follow 1+2 = 3 Empress
The Empress brings manifestation.
Our effort bears results.
She brings caring, nurturing, abundance, beauty and good times.
2019 might bring
more care and respect for our planet and all the species that call it home.
The Empress from Universal Tarot.
A renewed appreciation for beauty and the arts.
A softer touch, a more caring attitude.
An increase in birth rate.
Progress for women.
It sounds good. Let’s remember that these are opportunities and challenges available at world level.
Success or failure depend on how we respond collectively.
Here we are in July,
the sun is here and so is the heat. Thank God for air conditioning!
My garden 2018
My garden is in full boom. Birds are everywhere and the wild bunnies get bolder and bolder. I like rabbits. I always have. I used to have one growing up.
I did not work much in June. I was sick, but I am now well and eager to work. If you would like a Tarot reading, a Numerology reading or a Reiki session contact me here, or give me a call.
Also, I am not planning big vacations this Summer, so I will be available.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my new clients for trusting me with their questions.
I would like to express my gratitude to all my regular clients for their loyalty.
A huge thank you to those who have trusted me with their friends and family.
Word of mouth remains the best advertisement. Thank you.
I would also like to remind you all of my referral system, if you are not aware of it, please follow the link.
Enjoy this beautiful Summer. Stay safe and have fun.
Here we are in October. Ontario at this time of the year is stunning. The colours in the parks and the forests are simply beautiful.
The weather so far is mild and sunny, perfect for long walks.
As we all know, there is a lot of suffering going on at this time between natural disasters and human madness. We can all benefit from spending some time in nature, grounding ourselves and restoring calm and hope for the future.
Next week end will be Thanks Giving in Canada. I was born and raised in Italy, so it is not a holiday I grew up with. I don’t do much to celebrate it, but I do stop to reflect and give thanks for all that is good in my life. We all take so much for granted.
On October 22nd I will host another Playing with Tarot meeting. I do that once a month. You can find the details here Playing with Tarot
Halloween this year comes on a Tuesday. So I imagine Halloween parties will be spread around the week end and the actual day.
I like Halloween. A time of the year when everyone seems more accepting of magic.
I like the opportunity to dress up and pretend to be someone else.
I like to see the kids, big and small, go door to door in their costumes.
I often work for Halloween because I do Tarot parties. They add excitement to any gathering and I find that Halloween parties and Tarot fit together beautifully.
Are you hosting a party this Halloween? Call me at (519) 400-2117, text me, or contact me here https://wisdomandhealing.ca/contact/ and let’s have some fun.
As always, thanks for reading and take care.

Reiki is a Japanese form of hands on healing.
It is very easy to learn and it can be very helpful in every day life.
Most of our health problems come from stress.
Reiki is a very gentle and effective way to release stress.
The concept behind it is that we are energy. We are surrounded by energy and that becoming more aware of it helps everyone.
We have a magnetic field or aura that protects us and helps us interact with our surroundings. The energy moves constantly.
Energy like fear, grief and anger are heavy energy and tend to get stuck, which slows down the free flow of energy in our magnetic field.
When that happens we are weaker and not functioning at our best.
A Reiki session can help us relax and release such energy.
The session is done fully clothed and it feels very nurturing. It can help anyone who is dealing with anger, grief, stress, anxiety or experiencing problems sleeping. Reiki is also helpful to people who are sick and weak.
It helps alleviate pain and restore energy and peace of mind.
Reiki is not a substitute for medical care, but it supports it beautifully.
Reiki is not a religion.
In Usui Reiki practitioners are invited to reflect on the following ideals.
Just for today
don’t get angry,
don’t worry,
be grateful,
work hard and
be kind to others.
To book an appointment contact , for more information Reiki page, or visit The Canadian Reiki Association.
Today I had the pleasure to teach Tarot 1 to five students.
As always I had lots of fun. Tomorrow I will teach Tarot 2.
