About us
If you want to live an empowered, intuitive, magical life, this space is for you! We run regular monthly tarot practice groups as well as specialised workshops on tarot, oracle cards, crystals, Lenormand, and other intuitive techniques to support your spiritual & personal development.
Fortune minding means using tarot and other intuitive tools to take control of your destiny.
This is different from fortune telling, which takes a passive (and, in my opinion, disempowering) approach to card readings. When we engage in fortune telling, we expect to be told what will happen in our future, but we don’t explore alternatives and we don’t ask ourselves what we could do to improve the situation.
Fortune minding shows you what could happen, and it also helps you understand precisely what steps to take to experience the life you desire. Through fortune minding, we take responsibility for our own lives. We examine our thoughts, habits, emotions, and assumptions in a deep way. We strengthen our intuition. We build self-confidence. And, by engaging in the process, day by day we are supported to live our best lives.

Spellwork for Personal & Creative Success
·OnlineOnlineA spell is really just a fancy prayer, a ritualistic method of imagining and petitioning for change to occur in our lives.
In today's workshop, we will be using candles, tarot/oracle cards, and other tools to explore spellwork for personal and creative development. You don't need to have any experience with spells, tarot, divination, or any other intuitive or magical practices - complete beginners are more than welcome!
You will learn the ins and outs of basic magic-making as well as how to craft your own unique, personalised spell for any given situation.
Please note: this is NOT a workshop in the traditional witchcraft or pagan way! My personal magical practice is very intuitive, fluid, and open. I draw inspiration from many different modalities, including tarot, crystal healing, shadow work, scrying, journaling, automatic writing, and many more. If this sounds interesting to you, please come along and I will share not only my personal practice, but I will empower you to discover and develop your own unique relationship with magic and spellcraft.
Please come prepared with:
- A tarot or oracle deck
- A journal & pen
- A new, unused candle (any colour, preferably small)
- And any other crystals, pendulums, incense sticks, herbs, flowers, & other magical items you might want to make use of
We will be meeting on Zoom. The Zoom link is available on the event page for those who have reserved a space. Any questions about Zoom, just ask!

Monthly Tarot Practice Group: Check in With Your Deck
·OnlineOnlineThis relaxed and informative (and FREE!) session will give you the chance to check in on your tarot journey as well as pick up a few new strategies and techniques to incorporate into your practice. Every month we will be working from a different topic, idea, question, spread, etc. Feel free to join every month, or pop in as you wish.
We will begin the session with a brief introduction to our method of tarot reading and how it can be applied to your daily life. We will then guide you through various exercises to help you to understand the true potential these cards have. The session will conclude with an open discussion, and you will have the chance to ask any questions.
This session is open to complete beginners as well as those who have some experience of the tarot. It is recommended to bring a deck to the session if you have one, as this workshop is going to help you to bond with your deck and establish a rapport. Get in touch with our host Maria if you'd like her recommendations on tarot decks.
This is not a class about the history of the tarot or its traditions and symbolism (there are plenty of other courses/books/websites that do this already!). Rather, what you can expect here is a guided experience, not just tarot spreads but also creative journaling and therapeutic reflection. You will get a chance to flex your intuitive muscles and also meet some like-minded seekers and thinkers. After this session, you will understand how tarot can be used to forge a deeper connection with yourself and to access the knowledge you already contain within you.
Tarot is a visual language and, as such, it is the perfect method for communicating with our unconscious. If you want to get to know yourself better and strengthen access to your inner wisdom and creativity, then this session is for you.
We will be meeting on Zoom. The Zoom link will be sent out in a message to attendees on the day of the event. Any questions about Zoom, just ask!
**PLEASE NOTE these events tend to book up far in advance, and the waitlist can get very long. So don't forget that members of the Fortune Minding With Maria Patreon can SKIP the queue for these events and come right in! Find our Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/cw/FortuneMindingwithMaria
