I began my journey with Spirit as a young child when I would experience many déjà vu moments. Time and time again I would experience those moments later on in real life.
I remember buying my first deck of cards when I was in my late teens. There was a small guidebook which helped me to learn the basic tarot card meanings. I was in fact a bedroom tarot reader only coming out of the closet many years later!
This was at a time when life gave me the biggest challenge when my marriage ended and I become a single mum to twins!
I still only used my cards for personal use until I entered the world of Social Media and Facebook which was around 2008 / 2009!
I discovered via Amazon a modern day Tarot Deck (The Faulkner Tarot) that I instantly fell in love with, to this day it’s still my goto deck!
I also remember seeing The Faulkner Tarot being showcased on TV's Psychic Today. The images were so clear and easy to understand, and most importantly made sense in today's modern world.
"The Faulkner Tarot is the first modern day photographic tarot decks showing real people and real situations in life we can all relate too"
I was super excited to find out more about its creator and the story behind it.
I remember purchasing 2 biographies by Rhiannon Faulkner and my love for the deck and the story behind the deck grew even more!
I was incredibly lucky to attend a one day workshop with the wonderful creator of The Faulkner Tarot - Rhiannon Faulkner.
I then chose to sign up and complete the 12 week course and I became An Approved Faulkner Tarot Reader. My mentor for the 12 Weeks was one of the studio psychics from Psychic Today!
This led to an amazing opportunity of becoming a Tarot Reader for Psychic Today, the very show where I had initially see The Faulkner Tarot.
I then decided to launch my own business - Shining Starr Readings (now known as Shining Starr Holistics) over a decade ago.
I'm proud to say it is still growing from strength to strength. I have regular clients in Europe, Canada, USA, Australia, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Ireland as well as here in the UK.
And the most important part, I love supporting my clients, growing and evolving as a Spiritual Self Empowerment Coach and Tarot Mentor and finalIy I also love creating empowering content to support my work.
