I Ching

A structured, non-divinatory approach to Tarot and I Ching as mirrors of the subconscious — rooted in Jungian depth psychology.

What if a deck of cards — or a set of ancient symbols — could help you reflect on your story, deepen self-awareness, and illuminate the patterns shaping your life? In my work, Tarot and I Ching are not tools for prediction. They are reflective systems that tap into the subconscious and the collective unconscious, helping us explore archetypes, synchronicities, and symbolic turning points. This offering draws from the teachings of Carl Jung, who viewed symbolic systems like Tarot and the I Ching as doorways to inner knowing — not as oracles, but as mirrors.

My Approach:

This work is spacious, soulful, and grounded in psychological respect. I don’t interpret for you — I hold space with you.

Together, we look at the symbols that arise as invitations, not instructions. We explore the emotional, imaginal, and archetypal layers of what’s emerging. You are always the final authority on what resonates, what illuminates, and what moves you forward.

Symbolic work can be deeply clarifying, especially in moments of ambiguity, initiation, or personal myth-making. And sometimes, the right image at the right time can shift everything.

Depending on your interest, we may:

  • Reflect on a Tarot spread you’ve drawn on your own
  • Drawn to symbolic systems like the Enneagram, astrology, tarot, or energy work—even if you’re not quite sure why
  • Use the cards as a springboard for therapeutic dialogue
  • Consult the I Ching (Book of Changes) for guidance during times of transition or inner work
  • Explore the archetypal structure of these systems to deepen symbolic literacy and intuitive capacity

What to Expect / Session Structure

  • A reflective, non-dogmatic process focused on inner clarity
  • Orientation to the structure of the Tarot deck (Major/Minor Arcana, suits, court cards, narrative flow)
  • Option to consult the I Ching and explore the hexagram’s meaning as a symbolic message
  • Gentle engagement with archetypes, metaphor, intuition, and personal myth
  • Optional use of ritual, journaling, or visualization to deepen integration

My Training & Influences

  • I’ve studied with teachers in the Jungian, mythic, and symbolic traditions of Tarot, including:
  • Kenneth James, PhD — Jungian analyst and founder of The Soulwork Center
  • Juliet Sharman-Burke — Author of The Mythic Tarot, therapist, and astrologer
  • T. Susan Chang — Author of Tarot Correspondences and 36 Secrets, expert in symbolic patterning and intuitive structure
  • I also work with the I Ching as a companion tool for self-reflection and transformation, integrating it into both personal practice and therapeutic dialogue.
  • I offer a course titled “The Art of Tarot: Symbol, Soul & Synchronicity” through Central Oregon Community College — a psychologically informed class to support intuitive development and symbolic thinking.
