My Tarot Journey
My name is Enni Tapionkaski and I'm originally from the northern Finland but found my way to the south of England in 2016.
My first touch to tarot occurred somewhere in the early 2000's through my dear nan, Helka, who was a collector of pseudo science books and items as well as art and antiques. I remember playing with her deck as a young girl and the Knight of Pentacles, a knight with a dark armour standing still with his beautiful black horse, stood out to me as my favourite card. I remember creating little stories with the cards, using them as the images. It sparked an endless fascination there and then.
In 2019 I travelled to Edinburgh and found a witches shop, selling oddities and books of occult knowledge. I purchased my first very own Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck there and then.
Since then, I have studied tarot nearly daily, done hundreds of readings and got two diplomas in the study of tarot. What I love about tarot, is that you'll never stop learning it, the knowledge they can give you is endless.
Now, I've come to the point where I want to share my knowledge and also help and guide others using the tarot cards as a tool. This transition feels very natural step forward on my journey of tarot.

My tarot readings
My style in tarot is gentle and I have a loving approach. I always aim to find the positives in the most difficult situations when it comes to my readings. I want to say that my approach is "down to earth", less mystical and I want my clients to be involved in the whole process as much as possible, as after all, this is their reading and the client is the expert. I am just a tool with my tarot cards to find and voice the meaningful thoughts and feelings. I aim to empower my clients with the readings, first of all, so they can then accomplish the things they want and need for their future.
I don't consider reversed cards, but instead I always read the card as a whole with my intuition guiding me.
I absolutely love animals and nature, so I often use animal themed oracle cards as another guiding tool.
My readings are clear and I'm always happy to elaborate during face to face readings, so my readings are especially a good option for someone considering their first-time reading or if you're new to tarot.
I come from a long line of seers, mediums and psychics, witches and shamans. I have some of these gifts myself, but I prefer keeping it out of my tarot practise when possible. Instead, I use my intuition and empathy to give the querent my insight and guidance for the present and future. I'm also neurodivergent, which makes me highly observant and especially empathetic towards people around me.
