Frequently Asked Questions about Bog Standard Tarot Readings
What’s included in a Bog Standard Tarot Reading?
A Bog Standard Tarot Reading is exactly that—straightforward, flexible, and to the point. These readings don’t follow a set theme or structure, meaning you can bring any question, situation, or general curiosity, and the cards will respond. There’s no reflection journal, no aftercare, and no pre-determined focus. You get clear, honest insight in a way that makes sense for you. The cards are typically drawn in groups of three (except for any oracle cards), but if you prefer a structured spread, you can request one when booking.
How do I book a reading?
It’s simple: choose the format that works for you, live Zoom, or in-person, and book directly from this page. If you already know what you want to focus on, you can include that when booking. If you’re unsure, that’s fine too; we’ll let the cards guide the session. Once your booking is confirmed, I’ll meet you at the scheduled time for your live session.
Do you use a specific spread in these readings?
Not usually. Bog Standard Tarot Readings are open-ended, meaning I draw cards in groups of three, allowing the reading to unfold organically. This makes them adaptable to any situation. However, if you have a specific spread in mind, you can request one when booking. There’s no pressure to choose a spread in advance—most people just let the reading flow naturally.
Can I ask about any topic?
Pretty much. You can ask about love, career, self-growth, decisions you’re struggling with, or just general life confusion. These readings are designed to be versatile, so you’re not limited to a single area of focus. The only things I won’t cover are third-party readings (i.e., spying on someone else’s thoughts or feelings) and anything that oversteps ethical boundaries, like medical or legal advice. If you’re unsure whether your question is appropriate, just ask—I’ll always be upfront.
What format options do you offer?
Bog Standard Tarot Readings are available in different formats depending on the session length. Readings are available as live sessions, either over Zoom or in person. When you book a live reading, we’ll meet at the scheduled time, and you’ll be actively involved in the session, asking questions and engaging with the cards in real time. For in-person sessions, the address is provided after booking. Regardless of format, every reading is straightforward, practical, and tailored to what you need.
How long does a reading take?
The length depends on the type of reading you book. Some readings are short and snappy, giving you quick insight in just a few minutes, while others allow for a deeper dive into your situation. The important thing is that the reading will always be straight to the point—I don’t drag things out just to fill time.
What if I don’t know what to ask?
That’s completely fine. You don’t need a perfectly worded question to get value from a tarot reading. If you’re feeling lost or just want general insight, we can keep things open-ended and let the cards reveal what’s most relevant. If you’d rather have some guidance on how to phrase a question, I can help with that too—just let me know what’s on your mind, and we’ll find the best way to approach it.
Will you tell me my future?
No. I don’t do fortune-telling. Tarot isn’t about fixed predictions—it’s about perspective. These readings highlight patterns, reveal options, and help you make informed choices. If you’re looking for someone to tell you what’s going to happen, I’m not the reader for you. If you want clarity and empowerment, that’s where I can help.
Do these readings come with a follow-up?
No. Bog Standard Readings are one-off sessions. There’s no follow-up, no reflection journal, and no aftercare. If you want a reading that includes a reflection journal and space to process your insights, check out my Premiere Tarot Experiences instead.
Are these readings confidential?
Yes. Everything we discuss stays private. Whether it’s a live or in-person session, your details and the content of your reading will never be shared. Your privacy and comfort are always a priority.
