FAQ
-
Where can I get an in-person reading?
Anywhere in the Wellington CBD or the southern city suburbs where you feel comfortable. This could be your favourite café or a a park. Bri won’t travel further north than Thorndon or further west than Aro Valley, but you can meet her centrally.
For repeat clients, Bri is open to meeting in your home.
-
What are the platforms for online readings?
Zoom, Whatsapp, or Signal are all good options. If you have a preference, let us know when you request an online booking. Bri is usually flexible.
-
Do I have to know what reading type I need before I book a session?
No you don’t! We can have a chat before starting the reading to work out what option is best for you. The description of Our Offerings on the home page will give you a sense of the reading types available.
-
Are readings age-restricted?
Yes they are. Bri won’t read for anyone under the age of 18 years. Tarot can be a fun tool to teach to kids and there are lots of great resources for children out there (see Theresa Reed’s 2021 post). However, some of the archetypes in the tarot have adult themes, so this restriction is in-place for everyone’s safety.
-
What are the qualification requirements to be a tarot reader?
The short answer - there are none. That said, there are many, many brilliant teachers, books, and other resources available for learning tarot. Bri initially self-taught but has also taken classes with renowned tarot experts (notably Biddy Tarot). She has more than a decade of hands-on experience reading tarot and oracle for herself and others. She is also committed to learning new approaches from professional card readers who inspire her.

I'm in crisis - can Tyche Tarot help me?
Tyche Tarot is not an emergency support service. These readings are intended to help facilitate your self-reflection, conscious living, and empowered action in daily life. They are not a substitute for licensed mental health services, nor are they appropriate for responding to health crises of any kind. New Zealand’s Te Hiringa Mahara | Mental Health and Wellbeing Commission has a great ‘Where to get help’ webpage.
