Okay, before you judge—hear me out. Last month I was at my breaking point. The kids were going through phases, my husband and I kept missing each other emotionally, and I had this nagging feeling about a career decision that kept me up at night. You know that mental fog where you can’t tell if you’re overthinking or if something’s genuinely wrong?

A friend (another mom, obviously) mentioned she’d tried a phone tarot reading. I laughed at first. But then she said something that stuck: “It’s like therapy but with cards. Someone listens, asks the right questions, and you end up figuring things out yourself.”
Why Phone Readings Work for Busy Moms
Here’s the thing—I don’t have time to drive somewhere, find parking, and sit in a waiting room. But a phone call after bedtime? That I can do. I found a service offering psychic tarot readings by phone and thought, why not? The reader understood my background and it felt like talking to a wise aunt rather than some stranger.
What Actually Happened
No, she didn’t predict winning lottery numbers. But she asked questions that made me think. About what I was actually afraid of with the career move. About patterns I keep repeating. About why I felt disconnected from my partner when nothing was technically “wrong.”
By the end of the call, I had clarity I hadn’t felt in months. Not because she had magic answers—but because someone gave me 30 uninterrupted minutes to actually think about MY life instead of everyone else’s needs.
Is It For Everyone?
Honestly? Probably not. If you’re a strict skeptic, save your money. But if you’re open to a different kind of self-reflection—one that doesn’t require a therapist’s waiting list or finding childcare—it might be worth trying. Just pick a reputable service with clear pricing and real reviews.
Sometimes moms need permission to focus on ourselves for half an hour. If a deck of cards helps make that happen, I’m not ashamed to say I’m here for it.
