About the author

WelcometoSet Yourself up for Success, a 31-day tarot challenge for writers and other creatives ready to have their best year yet.
Initially designed as a tarot challenge for Instagram, the thirty-one daily prompts in this book will help you get a firm grasp on the year ahead, whenever that new year starts for you. Perhaps it’s on the first of January or your birthday, or on that random day in the middle of September you decide it’s time to get your act together and become serious about where you’re going.
During this challenge, you will set your goals and intentions for the next year as you reflect on:
the year that has come and gone, including the lessons and victories,where you are now creatively, andthe challenges and opportunities for growth you will face in the twelve months ahead.No good ride will ever be a smooth one, but if we know where we’re headed and how to best deal with the obstacles to come, the ride can’t be but a success. Just buckle up, hit that accelerator, and enjoy ;)
So, how does a tarot challenge work? Quite simply, actually. Each day, you pick up your deck of choice, shuffle to your heart’s content, and pick a card or more, depending on the question and what your gut tells you. The next day, you put the card(s) back into your deck, shuffle like you mean it, and pull out your next draw.
Even though each day in this book implies the number of cards you could be drawing, there’s no reason you should follow that advice. Your gut always knows best. Likewise, it doesn’t matter to me how you shuffle your cards or decide which card is the one that needs picking. Just go with what you’ve been taught or feels right for you in this moment. There’s really no doing this wrong.
The same goes with how you interpret the cards’ messages. Some feel utterly comfortable using the guidebook that came with their deck, while others rely solely on their intuition. You can do either or a bit of both: when doing a reading, I don’t mind glancing at the description offered by the creator of the cards, especially when I feel there is more to a card but I just can’t seem to grasp the full meaning of it at the time. The guidebook won’t always bridge that gap, but it might just give you another perspective, that ‘Aha, of course!’ moment that will kickstart your intuition. Whatever you do, don’t let others tell you what is right and wrong: there’s only a right and wrong for you, and you will know what is what in the moment.
I highly suggest that you write down your findings and reflect on them as you go. The same card might show up again and again: what could that mean? Some cards will only make sense later, after you answer a few more questions. Reflecting on previous draws will be especially relevant in those cases. And, even if all the cards make perfect sense the moment you draw them, looking at the bigger picture might still reveal something you had not considered before. It’s in the reflecting that the wisdom lies.
Those familiar with my work know that I don’t differentiate between means of divination. I might use the word tarot, but you can use any deck of cards, whether that be tarot, oracle, or angel. If you’d rather use your crystals or your runes, feel free to go with that.
For those who want to do the challenge but aren’t comfortable using either of those divinatory tools, or simply don’t own any, use each question as a journal prompt. Sit down in a quiet space, take a few deep breaths, and let whatever answers need to bubble to the surface come.
Likewise, if you would like to mix things up—perhaps the one question makes you want to grab your favourite oracle deck, while another makes you pick up a notebook—please do. Your challenge, your rules. As long as you follow that gut of yours.
