“Everything was magical.”

Cecily Sailer, Writer, Creative Coach and Founder of Typewriter Tarot, embodies this month’s topic KISMET. She gives us an intimate look into her personal creative journey. During a challenging time in her life, she serendipitously found the Tarot. She discovered its archetypes as a natural storytelling medium whose insights can be used as a tool for transformation, creativity and guidance. “[It’s] a tool for me to pass on stories to people, to connect with people to help them pursue or imagine the changes they want to see in their lives.” She makes us aware of the invisible signs and “cosmic beacons” in our lives that can make our seemingly mundane daily lives magical. Cecily instills the audience this month with the courage and fortitude to unravel “a purpose or a destiny that’s always coming into focus.”
