I believe in setting a space where you feel safe enough to be honest with yourself. Whether it is the Smith-Waite deck I have held onto for eight years or the specific dhoop I burn before a session, every item here is chosen to help you drop the guard you keep up for the rest of the world. These tools are simply the backdrop for our conversation, helping us lower the noise so you can finally hear your own inner voice. ### More Than Just Cards When people see my setup, they often ask about the decks or the crystals. For me, these are not objects of power; they are triggers for presence. When I light a diya or start the incense, it is a signal to my mind and yours that we are entering a space where the usual rules of 'busy life' do not apply. **The Decks I Use** My practice relies on a few core decks, each selected for its energy. My Smith-Waite deck, gifted to me by my teacher, is the one I lean on for foundational, no-nonsense clarity. It carries eight years of my own practice within its edges. I also use the Light Seer’s and Modern Witch decks when we need to approach a topic from a fresh, visually intuitive angle. **The Sacred Atmosphere** - **Crystals:** You will often see Amethyst or Rose Quartz on my altar. They are tactile anchors that help ground our energy during deep conversations. - **Ritual:** The act of burning dhoop and lighting a lamp is a non-negotiable part of my preparation. It clears the air, quite literally and metaphorically. - **The Setting:** Whether we are meeting in a quiet Bengaluru cafe or connecting over a video call, I create an environment that encourages you to slow down. **My Approach** My work is non-predictive. If you are looking for someone to tell you what will happen next year, I am not the right fit. However, if you are looking for a mirror to reflect on your current blocks—whether it is a career crossroads or a complicated family dynamic—my tools are here to help us uncover what you already know deep down. You don't need to be fixed, you just need to be seen. ## About Shilpa Murthy I am Shilpa, and for me, tarot is a mirror, not a crystal ball.
