I've always been more interested in the “real” question behind the “surface”question.

When someone asks, "Will this person come back?", the yes or no is the least interesting part. I want to know what this relationship has stirred up in you. What keeps you attached to it. What you're hoping for, fearing, avoiding, or can't yet see.

And that's exactly where tarot earns its place.

I'm Sasha Noyan, an introspective tarot reader. I work with relationships, careers, personal situations, life decisions, and the patterns underneath them. I've conducted more than 20,000 readings for people across many countries and circumstances, through live video sessions and recorded readings.

How I read

I use the open reading technique. A spread is a set of images in relation to one another, and I read the imagery, symbols, numbers, contrasts, and movements across the whole layout, together with your question, your circumstances, and the impressions that surface during the reading.

So I don't tell you what a card means in general. I want to know what it means here, for you, this time. Your situation isn't interchangeable with anyone else's, and the reading shouldn't be either.

My reading style has been shaped by tarot historians like Michael Dummett, Giordano Berti, and interpreters like Alejandro Jodorowsky, Yoav Ben-Dov, and more. Carl Jung's work on symbols and archetypes gives me a lens for reading the images. Psychology, surely has a heavy influence on my readings, which, informs the method. The reading itself belongs to the person in front of me.

On prediction

I don't read the cards as a fixed script for your life. I won't tell you someone is your soulmate, that a person must return, or that an event is due on a given date.

People change. Circumstances change. You make choices, and so does everyone else in the story. The decision you make today can alter the road that seemed to be waiting for you tomorrow.

So I ask different questions of the cards. What's happening? What aren't we seeing? Which patterns are at work? What choices are available? What needs to be understood before the next step?

If you want to look at where things may be heading, we can. We treat what we find as possibilities and directions, and the last word stays with you.

Why tarot

What keeps me with tarot is the way it holds contradiction. Hope next to grief. Desire next to fear. Attachment next to the wish to be free. The self we present next to the parts we'd rather not look at.

After thousands of readings, the situations are always different and the themes repeat: love, loss, uncertainty, longing, identity, choice, fear, change, and the slow work of getting honest with ourselves. Those themes are what I find most compelling about the practice.

What you can expect from me

Honesty without cruelty. Compassion without flattery. Intuition without pretending to know things I don't.

I won't manufacture certainty where there isn't any. If the cards point at something uncomfortable, I'll say it. If something doesn't fit, I'll say that too. If we're asking the wrong question, I'll suggest another angle.

And if you already know the answer and can't trust it yet, the reading may help you hear it. Decisions stay yours. My job is to help you see what you're dealing with.

A human reader

When you book with me, you're speaking with me. I conduct every reading myself. There's no automated interpretation, no AI-generated text, and no team of readers behind the name.

In live sessions, the conversation is the point. You can ask questions, challenge an interpretation, or tell me something that changes the context, and we follow the thread. Some of the most useful moments in a reading are the ones neither of us planned.

I also keep no notes or records between sessions. Every reading starts clean.

What I hope you take away

Not every reading ends in an answer. Sometimes you need permission to admit something you've been avoiding. Sometimes you need to see a familiar pattern from a new angle, or to notice you have more options than you thought. Sometimes you need someone to sit with you in a confusing place for a while.

If tarot can do that, it's doing something worth doing.

Work with me

If you want to talk a situation through in real time, book a live video tarot reading. If you'd rather receive a reading to listen to privately and return to later, choose a recorded reading.

Either way, the aim is the same: to help you look at your life more clearly.
