Tarot cards are very old archetypes that people have been consulting for ages to find answers to all sorts 
of life-related questions.
The strong symbolism of the Tarot cards stimulates the natural intuition of the reader who then “translates” these images 
into clear language.
The cards represent the answer of the Universe to the consultants’ question.

There are moments in your life in which you cannot find clarity of mind because of the many thoughts that keep you busy, 
or because your understanding of the situation is obfuscated by your own prejudice, biased view of things and expectations.
You could be asking yourself: "Is this the right moment to look for a new job?" or "What can I do to get what I need 
in my relationship?" or: "I’m stuck in a certain situation. How can I break through it and transform this pattern 
into a positive trend?". 
A reading helps you get more clarity in this type of situations.

A Tarot reading is a “snapshot” of the present situation. It shows you where you come from, where you are 
right now on your personal path and what the possibilities for the future are, according to your own choices and beliefs. 
A reading can help you understand your attitude towards a certain situation and often offers the solution to blockages, 
old patterns and unnecessary belief systems that prevent you from expressing yourself in the way you would really like. 
If you’re stuck in a situation, you often cannot see the bigger picture but only certain aspects of it. A reading allows you 
to look at your situation from a 360° point of view, thus giving you the chance to understand the circumstances better 
and to find the best possible solutions.

A reading allows you to consider some aspects of your existence in a much more conscious way and 
to detect the so-called “blind spots” in your life.
It can also serve as a confirmation of what you already thought was the right path to follow, for example when 
you think you’re already making the best possible choices and just need that little extra push to move further .

I do not do readings on health issues.

My way to read the Tarot is totally free of future-oriented interpretations. 
I strongly believe in the idea that we all constantly create our “future” with our own choices, thoughts and beliefs.
What I do with my work is to help people understand certain situations better so that they can choose 
more consciously and with a serene mind what their next steps will be.

"You create your own reality"

I give personal readings (one person at a time, about 1,5 hrs) and relationship readings (for the two of you together to make sure that your relationship will be as harmonic as it can be). These are usually 10 or 13 card readings.
I also work with several event agencies for parties, corporate gatherings, bridal showers congresses etc during which I give 
shorter three-card readings that provide quick and very practical advice.

I always start a reading with a short description of your character based on Tarot numerology. To do this, I need your name and birth date. I also give you some numerology-based information about the year you are in (that is: your personal year, 
the energy it brings into your life - also based on Tarot numerology). 

Personal, "face to face" readings are my favourites. Yet it is possible to book a phone reading (fixed line), for example 
if you don't have the possibility to come to my studio in Amsterdam . 
It works like this: we make an telephone appointment  (at least  1 week after our first contact to make sure that there is enough time to process your payment) and in the meantime you can issue a payment order for 45 euros to be accredited 
on account number  45 33 847 ( Nicoletta Tavella, Amsterdam) mentioning "Phone  Tarot reading".

When the payment has been accredited on my account we will do the phone reading.

My name is Nicoletta Tavella. I was born (1964) and raised in Italy where I started to study the Tarot when I was thirteen. 
Since 1986 I live in The Netherlands, where I've studied several philosophies and healing techniques such as 
Cherokee Shamanism, Reiki, Crystal therapy, Zen Shiatsu, Physiognomics (Chinese Face Reading) and Skenar therapy. All this has enriched my life with experiences and knowledge that I can use on a daily basis and that give extra depth to my readings.
In 2004 and july 2006 I further developed my Tarot skills with Christopher Beaver in the United States. 
Christopher is a big Tarot expert and a very wise and experienced teacher. 

Reading the Tarot is one of my biggest passions. When I do a reading I feel a privileged and happy person.

I also give Italian cooking courses and workshops (see www.cucinadelsole.nl) and I write about food and wine. 
My first cookbook "Antipasti" (in Dutch) has been published by Veltman Uitgevers. Buy it here.
Further to that I’ve been an interpreter/translator for 15 years and I regularly work as a professional Italian voice-over.
